I was able to sideload a full LG Rebel 4 Settings APK, but the process was quite involved. Place this file on the SD card: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1eOKFFKD9pN_HsfsXeP8Wz33swmgAZgCt/view?usp=sharing Get into an ADB shell and run these commands. "am start com.android.documentsui/com.android.documentsui.ViewDownloadsActivity" "input tap 30 30". Scroll down to SD card (MUST HAVE SD CARD!), and run: "input tap 20 310" Select LGSettings.apk, but the OK button doesn't work. If it's on the left side "input tap 40 160" for right "input tap 160 160" You can update the APK now, and you will now have access to enable sideloading from the file manager!

xxdeafgirl If I understand correctly you did this for the lg classic? Can you briefly explain what we will be able to do after following these steps. Will we be able to install 3rd party apps?

xxdeafgirl I tried it and nothing happen

xxdeafgirl wen I run "am start com.android.documentsui/com.android.documentsui.ViewDownloadsActivity" cames up a error massage on my phone "file keeps stopping" any idea ??

mg5077 Factory reset and try this on a CLEAN INSTALL. ALSO NEVER ENABLE "Show Internal Storage"! You must use an SD card of any size (512MB is what I used) to store this APK on.

L-B It won't lift the signing restriction, but it will pave the way for enabling permissions, sideloading our "fake-signed" apps from the regular File Manager, and changing defaults without ADB trickery needed. This is a regular Android settings application, pulled from another cheap LG prepaid Android smartphone. It happens to be "compatible" with the LG Classic Flip if you follow my steps. If your "Files" app is stopping a lot, back up and factory reset. I was not able to recreate any issues mg5077 as long as I factory reset before attempting this.

xxdeafgirl you can also simply install it with ADB !!!!

mg5077 Wait. I couldn't get this working. What command, PM INSTALL-CREATE? I used pm install /sdcard/LGSettings.apk and it failed.

xxdeafgirl its just "adb install {path/name}"

xxdeafgirl I didn't understand your question ....

LG Classic Flip - I sideloaded the Rebel 4 Settings APK

Mike UN220? That's Android 6.0. I'd need to buy an LG K8 V and cross my fingers that it's on 6.0 still.

Flippy

So I'm trying to install this via WebADB. I've tried through it's install APK function with no success I assume because I cannot include the - g - r flags. When I try to do it through the shell I get this error: /system/bin/sh: adb: not found

Any suggestions? I should mention that I am using WebADB as my only computer at the moment is a chromebook.

xxdeafgirl

grk1138 That's because you're already in the device. You need to push the APK to it and then use pm install <path> -g -r

Thank you. I was able to get it to work!
