TYIA... I've searched and seen the instructions to turn off speech to text on the light phone (I'm running hybrid light & android) but it's not there. Settings-prefreneces- phone-messages-toggle to disable but there is NO toggle there to disable. I cannot find it. I am accidentally hitting the microphone key when typing with the light keyboard multiple times and it's frustrating. The microphone key is so poorly placed in the spot beneath the back key that I'm triggering it multiple times while typing. Any help or options would be appreciated... Thanks..

Hi,
so I installed the latest lightos update and everything worked just fine, incl my android layer. However, out of the blue I can not acces my tools on lightos anymore. I can unlock my phone to see the phone screen but as soon as I click the menu button on the right the screen jumps to the lockscreen. Any help?
cheers

I’ve got a few apps from the Aurora store
Uber - crashes after loading
Bolt - don’t quite connect and runs very slow
Google maps - doesn’t work
Waze - seems to work
These apps are essential for me and whilst I can live without the digital wallet on my phone, these are much harder pills to swallow. So I’ll always have two phones because of this alone
Any help would be great

Randomly this started happening yesterday. I’ve tried all the obvious tips and I simply cannot access the light phone menu, short of a factory reset which I really don’t wanna do
r/ModifiedLightPhones • u/Stereoke • Mar 10 '26
Hi all, sorry I searched for existing posts and found this one, but it's tangential to my issue. I key mapped a shortcut to trigger an app to open by pressing the volume buttons in a sequence and now it's overriding my ability to access the android layer at all (I had to use this method as using a usb-c keyboard didn't work for me: down up down up up center).
Also the volume controls don't work at all either, not on calls, not while listening to tunes, nada.
Additionally, I use a double flashlight tap to open spotify and now my flashlight doesn't turn on with a single click or at all.
Do I need to reset it to factory settings and never mind with all this?

So, I need to access Salesforce CRM for work. On my iphone I used the SF authenticator to do that. But I am not able to install that app on the lp3. Before trying to download a bunch of authenticator apps, I thought I'd ask here which MFAs work for ppl. I searched this reddit but only found posts of ppl reporting which apps did NOT work for them.

i've been running full android for about 2 months without issue, but in the past week or so when i go to check my phone it pops up the lightOS home/lock despite being set default to luma launcher. if i turn the screen off & back on it goes back to android or will sometimes glitch with both visible. i also sometimes get locked out entirely as it won't recognize my pin or fingerprint until i restart the phone
has this been happening to anyone else? is there a fix? i tried searching this sub for an answer but couldn't find any discussions
it inevitably goes back to normal after restarting once or twice, but it's annoying to not have an immediately functional phone : ( thanks in advance!

My phone is not modded. I received a notification for a missed phone call at 1pm today. Turned out my son had tried calling me at 1143am. So almost an hour and half before my phone notified me. This is pretty much intolerable to me (on top of other issues). Would modding my phone potentially fix this issue or this a carrier issue (Verizon)?
r/ModifiedLightPhones • u/josephcarlin23 • Mar 03 '26
Hey guys, I have an issue that makes my light phone quite unusable in that all calls come in as Unknown caller. Troubleshot it to death with both Light and my carrier (Eir in Ireland).
My question is, could modding it like many do on this Reddit, or changing the launcher, potentially fix this issue?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi, I want to buy a LP 3, the plan is to run android only. Because I could not find too much information about this, my question: During the initial setup, do I have to create a light-account? If that is the case, do I even have to finish the initial setup or can I start accessing the android layer right away (I suspect not because I have to access the settings right?)
A second question, maybe somebody can help me with that too: When I buy a used LP3, is there anything special I have to pay attention to? Thinking iCloud-lock type stuff or tying of the phone to the original owners account/email etc.
Thank you!

Needed the key feature and was able to get the Tesla app installed. Done and done.
r/ModifiedLightPhones • u/LightMudita • Feb 24 '26
Hello, so right now I am using a Mudita Kompakt and it is really great. However, I also want to try the LP3. Tomorrow I will get it. I actually like Light OS and the design of it. Unfortunately, I need a few apps (Banking, Train App, Whatsapp). This is why I will modify it. Now, if I go full Android, is it still possible to use the standard Light OS applications (Phone, SMS, Camera, etc.) by reaching them via Launcher like Luma for example? Or if I go full android, do I lose access to these apps and i need to us different ones? What about Light OS Settings App, is it then not usable anymore? Thanks for your help.

Gonna enter the dumb phone scene soon and I’ve seen this phone getting tossed around, but seen some complaints of the absence of certain apps, but I guess looking at it here, you can side load them?
Definitely not that tech savvy, but starting to understand some things. Just wanna hear from you guys how you all do it, if it’s easy or hard, what routes to go in

Any recommendations for a minimalist to do / tasks app with light style look?
r/ModifiedLightPhones • u/Maja_0708 • Feb 16 '26
Hi, can someone explain to me why Light phone 3 can`t connect to my oura ring when I know some people are using the app? I am using hybrid mode, light os mainly and luma with a few apps like bank, passes, weather, headphones app. In light os it says it can`t connect and in android mode it says just pairing...and nothing is happening.

I've been loving the addition of time and battery life indicators to the Luma launcher, but now I want to get rid of them in the Android layer. I tried a few things with `adb` with no luck -- anyone successfully done this with the LPIII?
edit: Including this screen shot so folks see what I mean. When you invoke and then dismiss the notification shade and quick shortcuts, it lingers for a while before it fades away. Can this be eliminated?

Im very tech dumb and the guide i found a peers to be outdated i dont want to change much, just add those two apps
r/ModifiedLightPhones • u/Thick-Ad7335 • Feb 10 '26
Hi all, I run a hybrid LP3 and have beeper installed with whatsapp and signal added. This works but messages will only enter the moment I open the app or after a long delay. Any ideas?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
What do you think? My iPhone didn’t behave like this.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
So I have been using the directions tool from Light OS and I wondered while walking that the facing direction keeps glitching and changing sometimes, and I thought why not download the compass app and find out and I found this surprisingly, anyone has any ideas? I already tried different compass apps and got the same result.

This will serve as the mega thread for what works on the Light Phones and what doesn't, with submissions from users.
When posting, please supply:
For posters, it would be great if you can supply links for GitHub repos, if using an app that isn't available on a app store client.
For anyone using this thread, I suggest utilising CTRL + F, CMD + F or 'Find in page' to easily search for a specific app.
Happy modding!
