huawei mate 8 how to hide the navigation bar? - Mate 8 General

Hi Everyone,
i have the mate 7 (MT7-TL10) and in the settings / Navigation bar, ( there is an on/off button to enable the hide or disable the ability to hide it.
So when i use the phone i can hide the bar all together and bring it back with a swipe from the bottom.
i am seriously thinking of buying the Huawei Ascend Mate 8 NXT-AL10 128GB Dual Sim 4G LTE (CN Ver.)
so my question is : is the ability to hide the navigation bar still present in the Mate 8?
thanks very much for your help!

No it is not. And that is not good. I mis that also.

you can go to settings...smart assitance.... navigation bar and click on the button next to navigation bar

No there is not.

Yes there is

On the international version isn't but in the chinese version there is

I've used both international and Chinese roms and they both included it. But it probably depends on which ROM you try

In chinese 156 I had it. Now on international 162 there is no such thing (i personally don't care about it just verifying what others say)

Im on nxt-l29c432b152 and it is not there.

3GB+32GB Silver

I got the 3 gb dual sim silver. Just had a call whit service center and they told me that in emui 4.0 ther is no oprion to hide the soft keys. Only in emui 3.1. :what:

No option to hide soft keys.

My apologies you seem right finaly, i was sure i seen it somewhere but i am not able to find it anymore. Maybe i made mistake with mate 7.
However it seem that EMUI 4.0 on honor 6 have more choice than us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jx0Q3wHNS6k

If you wait a lil bit, in a few days we have Xposed for our lovely device. Im sure there is something you can use then

So it's not very clear, some people say they have it, some says they don't...??
I think they removed it on emui 4.0
I discovered that you can install apps that will hide the navigation bar without routing your device. It's called "immersion mode" I've tested a few apps on my mate 7 and it works but will it work on the mate 8 (Chinese version)?

Seems weird they would remove the option in the update. Unless they buried it somewhere where it's hard to find.

Hmm than it probably will in the future, they must have updated the kernel for that to work.
For "real buttons" : do you have TouchPlus option on your Huawei p8 max? There are screen protectors for P8 that have buttons in them, with those screen protectors you can disable on screen buttons. But i dont know if they are available for Max, havent found them

Yes. I'm on v018 and it's 5.1.1. I think it was released last week.
No. I don't think the phone supports double tape to wake up screen. I tried it and nothing happens. I can't find any options in settings either.
Yes. In Settings/Navigation bar/Navigation bar ENABLE. When enabled, there's an arrow on the left of navigation bar. Click it to hide the bar.

Hi there
Thanks for the reply, I've now sorted it, I didn't have Google contact sync apk installed, a quick search found it for me.
The only problem with the Bluetooth method you suggested is it doesn't sync any changes, but thanks for the help anyways.

B370 ist rolling out (OTA)

B370 which should fix "push-problems with no notifications" is rolling out now in Germany.
Its available via HiCare-App, Update-App or this link:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/o...er-das-honor-7-os6-0-emui4-0-b370-ota.779485/
:laugh:
And it really solves the problems??? lol I've downgraded to b180 and I'll wait a little to update again... anyway, thanks for the info! at least something is moving
Does it fingerprint work normally (unlock was slow on B330)?
Does it respond normally (touch response was a bit slow)?
Is border around icons fixed on every theme?
What has been added (except on info), what has been removed and what has been really improved?
all tryes to update my phone working under modaco or yoda rom failed! A try using a rooted ori. backup after unrooting has also failed!
Now i am trying an unrooted ori image of b330. This seems to work. It is a very long process to finish! Now more than 35 min. Hope this will finish successful!
I've read a post saying that whatsapp notification still not working

You cannot update from any custom rom. You need a clean unrooted base rom. So, clean B330 is good choice.
We are waiting for your feedbacks here. I hope you give us good news about all known issues.
Ok, the device is verry hot during a backup! I think, they had boosted up the CPU frequence! Maybee the Governors have changed.
First impressions : the screen touch sensitivity seems slower than in B330.

Have you done factory reset after update? Because B330 had a lot of issues if not reseted.

No I did not. I will make a try.
So, any news? How is it behaving for now?
Battery seems better but have to test it further.
Possible to achieve more free RAM and sometimes it goes until 1.9GB and got 2GB twice .
EMUI 4.0 but lacks guest mode. Apps can be locked by password or fingerprint, though. Seems a better option than hiding apps and widgets.
No fast charge option but charges quickly. Need to measure it.
Whatsapp doesn´t activate LED, but it´s possible to setup screen wakeup.

Does fingerprint unlock works faster as in B180 (it was slower or non-responsive on B330) and do icons have border around?

Speedy as usual with added animation. Animation takes longer than awake and unlock.
Rounded borders, yes. But do you know other available themes? There's plenty, even 3D.

Use Stockify or Spectrum Pure.
I know about Spectrum Pure, as default and modified from here, but too colorful for me. Stockify seems OK, but if someone recreates regular Bazaar theme icons, that would be great

Oh, forgot. Have they returned back network speed indicator with B370?

Huawei P9 Lite "OK Google" problem after 7.0 upgrade...

After upgrading P9 Lite to EMUI 5 and Android 7, can't use the keyboard at all. Whatever you want to write, the phone opens the OK Google voice option...
It does not help even turning that voice option off in the menu, it still brings the OK Google in front instead the regular keyboard...
Any help on this? Thx in advance...

Google Smart Lock

Hey,
I'm on v11.0.1.0.PFJMIXM but can't find the Smart Lock features, especially the Trusted Places one. Is this removed from stock roms? Is there any way to install this feature? Which custom rom has this?
Thanks

I could not get it to work and looks like in all MIUI roms it's crippled. There is a Bluetooth unlock in lockscreen menu but it's only available with whitelisted Xiaomi gear it seams. Kinda confirmed on other MIUI forums basically they replaced it with their version and only for their devices. The prompt shows only the first time you pair a new device and you can add it but it does nothing and no way to get back in. I tried to trigger all activities from google service framework but could not get back in, only with new BT device will and i ran out of devices to try. No location trigger works

Ok, installed, granted root access, defined my home as trusted place
Locked the screen - it still asks me for pin, cannot unlock without
(I know how to use it, it works perfectly for me on Huawei Mate 9 but here cannot get it to skip entering my pin when I am at home and want to unlock the screen)
QFJEUXM 11.0.5
What else to set up or how to make it working?
Do you really have Xiaomi Mi 9T with stock ROM (and which) and did you really make Smart (un)lock to work for your (home) place, and how?

Unfortunately, true. I was surprised when
@Tizio.Qualunque claimed a 'solution'?!
I've seen many threads for Mi 9T and other Xiaomi phones but never seen anybody claiming that he/she set it up to to really unlock without a pin (or how to do it).
Btw, before I installed this Smart Lock app as he suggested, I got pop-ups by Google Smart lock several time, asking me if I want to set up my (home) location for smart (un)locking (now, during Corona I'm almost all the time at home and unlock the phone by pin tens of time during the day, because unfortunately FOD is very unreliable). So I always confirmed that I want, but still it never worked for unlocking
I can only hope that Xiaomi maybe fix it for MIUI 12, but frankly I don't believe.
BIG MINUS for MIUI and Xiaomi phones

Click to expand...

Yes. A huge minus.
Use face unlock. Use Mi band or some kind of Mi watch (bluetooth unlock is limited to only one device... ). It's stuipid - I know. But this is only think you may do if you want your phone to be unloceked when you are near.
Eventually you may try Tasker.
I've been dealing with this since miui 6.
As others have said, MIUI has removed all access to smart lock. The only reason you get the notification is because it's served by Google Play services. They can't touch it.
Even if you access the menu by root, it still won't work because MIUI uses its own lock screen, not the stock lockscreen.
They keep kneecapping the Android features, and later introduce them as "new". The only people who actually like MIUI are people who've never used stock Android
More examples from my experience in MIUI 6 :
1. They didn't have face unlock or bluetooth unlock. But Android had it since the previous 2 versions. They added it in the next MIUI as a flagship feature. And it's still bad. It unlocked for my brother's face.
2. Split screen. One generation late.
3. Picture in picture mode. Dunno if it's available even now

As a user come from nexus and Xperia (like pure android with sony exclusive options) devices, miui only have eye catching ui and lots of bloat ware!
User experience (UX) is so bad. You can't find some options easy (for old and pro android user since 2010, i search in settings menu to find some features! How new android user can use miui i don't know!!!)
select widget so hard, no app drawer, lots of bugs, lags (frame drop) anywhere. MIUI good for peoples come from iOS to android. (Animation, Animation, Animation. Not smooth ux, not easy to use ROM)
I bye Xiaomi phone for good hardware and great price.
Don't forget we are in android. For any feature we can find a nice third-party app.
I flash Pixel Experience Plus...
If google not make ugly pixel, and sport it with high end hardware and good price (Nexus Phone!?) , i never bye any mi or galaxy phone! OnePlus can be an option for professional android user too, but not find easy in my country.

Not fixed in MIUI 12 / Android 10.
Makes it impossible to do hands-free calling in the car., since you can't make calls anymore with the screen locked.
Only ways I can see around it is:
1. Keep your phone unlocked,
2. Have face unlock set and place your phone where it can "see you" at all times.
3. Get a cheap Mi band or some other MI product, add it as a trusted device, and keep it charged in your car.
This is utter nonsense from Xiaomi.
With MIUI 12, Android 10 and by using Root Smart Lock app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.rachel030219.smartlocklauncher
I can setup my trusted place and it remembers, but still it doesn't keep the phone unlocked at my home (I must use the fingerprint or pin)
I was thinking if some permissions are missing
I tried it on MI11 with MIUI 12.5 and with the app mentioned, but still not working :-(

Navstar features on android 10

Hello guys, I just got android 10 upgrade... but before upgrading to it, I have a question. Right now I use navstar (part of good lock suite), because it has 2 features i really need... i can add on the bottom bar the icon to screenshot and also the button to turn the screen off, which i find very useful and that i dont want to get rid of.
I read navstar isnt updated to android 10... so i'm wondering, does android 10 have built in features like that, or im stuck waiting for someone to update navastar before i can upgrade to android 10? Thanks a lot!
Good Lock seems to be up the swanny View attachment 4895787

Are there no alternatives for what I need?
Just updated to Android 10 on S10+: Navstar, Task Changer, Nice Shot and Quickstar do not work: applications open properly but do not implement features. Will there be a loss? At least for Navstar.
I was wondering why I could not find these apps. Hopefully they will be supported soon.
According to message given when trying to open NavStar Samsung is updating this app. They should have updated before releasing update, this is a Samsung app.
