I find it hard to lock the phone using the power button. At some angles I could not lock the phone. Must whole finger rest on button then higher chance to lock the phone. Need a little more time to get used to back button lock

Anyone got same problem or this is some kind of unique feature of LG?

After the recent updates, I feel that the camera has improved in terms of it's autofocus performance. It seems to be much more reliable and accurate in locking on to focus.

Brought my G6 out to shoot Night Festival, and despite the challenging conditions, i was pleasantly surprised to find that the cam handled very well, with only a few shots out of a hundred + that are blurred because didn't focus properly. Selfies quality seem to also have improved too. Anyone noticed that too?
Yes. I also feel the camera now produce better images

Double click must b on empty spaces on home rite? If I double click on an app or while inside an app, it does not work rite?
You can also double tap on the status bar to lock the phone. Works also when you're in an app.

I use this workaround I learnt from reddit -

Using a tasker plugin called Touchtask to run a macro that double taps the status bar, use it in LMT pie control. Anywhere any time also can lock the phone.

If you want to uninstall some of the preloaded apps, only few can be removed. Youtube is not one of them.
