How to fix the most common Honor 8 problemsNo app drawer?
The Honor 8 has a very noticeable lack of an app drawer. You can fix this by downloading one of the many app drawer apps from the Play store. You can also install a launcher as well. Right now I am using the Google Now Launcher.
I'm not getting notifications on some apps
Go to the notification center in the Phone Manager app. Here you can manage what type of notifications are allowed on each app. Specify status bar, banner and lock screen preferences.
No battery percentage shown
The battery percentage icon can be toggled on and off in Settings > Notifications panel Status bar. You can choose whether to have the percentage shown in the battery icon or next to it.
I'll be updating this thread as I find more common issues that people have. Feel free to comment if there is something I should add.

Moving apps to SD is not natively supported in Marshmallow anymore. But if you're rooted, you can download Link2SD or any app with moving capabilities.

Nova launcher is the best

There are some nice enough developers to include a option to hide an icon from a Live Wallpaper settings. But that's only with about 20% of them. The rest are just creating a mess there. I have a lot of these Live Wallpapers, I often like to change the looks of my home screen.
It has become really hard to find apps, well you either have to slowly browse through them all to find what you have installed, or remember the names of the apps. I think Google should give users an option to hide and manage hidden apps. Or is there already a way? (without rooting)
You can hide apps by going to settings, apps and selecting the app you desire and press disable. Those that are disabled won't appear on your app menu. This feature is on stock ROM or not.

I'm on android 4.4.2 and there is no such option. And wouldn't that disable the app altogether from usage?
Hello everyone, i recently installed BlissPop ROM on my D-802.
I was wondering:
1) Can i remove the "Get now cards" ?
2) Can i use smaller icons like the others on bottom tray ?

Futhermore, were could i find stock apps like Dialer and Contacts ? Most of them listed on "G2 THEMES AND APPS" have broken links.
Hi,
1. I'm assuming that's a widget, if so, you can just long-press it and throw it to the "Remove" / "Delete" option that pops up.
2. If you're using Nova launcher, witch I guess you're using, you can go to Nova settings--> Desktop--> Icon layout and from there you can adjust the size of the icons in the desktop.
Edit: Oh and about the stock apps, here's a link to some stock lollipop apps
http://www.idroidspace.com/download-android-5-lollipop-stock-apps/
Nearly all the stock lollipop apps are there, however if you want the messenger app then just search for it at the play store, Google already published it there.
But if you meant stock LG apps, then I don't believe there is a way to use stock LG apps in an Aosp ROM such as Cyanogenmod/blisspop/AICP etc...
Have fun!

Thank for your reply!
1) This is not a widget. That's why i am asking if there any way to remove it.
2) I am using the launcher which come with BlissPop ROM. Should i use Nova instead ?
I was searching for stock LG Contacts and Dialer apps because i prefer them than Google's.
I prefer LG apps over the stock as well, but sadly, I did not manage to make them work in the BlissPop ROM.
And I recommend you to use a different launcher, as he said, Nova would suffice. But I personally preffer Apex Launcher, it just fits my style a bit more. Any of these two should be able to handle your situation anyway.

Yes, use Nova or Apex or whatever launcher you want, I prefer Nova. I've used so many launcher in the past but nothing could beat Nova IMO.
Even though I'm recommending Nova, witch will, by using it, remove that ugly "Get now cards" thingy, I'm gonna have to ask you to tell me what happens when you long press that thing? Does it say anything? Does it let you view "app info" or let you know what app that is?
And for the stock apps, I searched and tried some but none worked (as expected). That's why some people choose to stay with stock systems because of these apps. Personally I've gotten over that ;D

You can set up task manager in your status bar, it should be in the blisspop settings, under status bar OR under the quick settings menu.
It will add a buttom for the task manager to your quick settings, see for yourself

A screenshot or something ? I can not find this option :/
Sure, Settings - Bliss interface - Notification drawer - Task manager.
When you turn that on, an icon will appear in your quicksettings (when you slide down notification bar completely, it will be next to the settings shortcut and battery shortcut).

You are awesome man! Thank you very much!
Basically the title. Is there a way how to enable this feature in EMUI 4.0?
Bump. Please, if it isn't possible, just say I can't .
If someone knew how to open, they would have responded. I'm still on lollipop but I think that if the default way of enabling is not working, it's removed or hidden for your own good (doesn't work or crashes the phone)

IMO most of the tuner options are available in EMUI, in different places. We can edit shortcuts, status bar drag behaviour, data transfer and battery numbers visibility etc.

Does that mean we have no secret system ui tuner menu?
Well can you help me removing google search icon(not a bar) from homescreen. there is no google search app installed (not even under system apps). i search and found out that system ui tuner could hide it + other stuff like battery percantage into battery tweat etc.
Update: I found the battery percantage tweak at Settings > notification panel & status bar. Still having that non used google icon which i dont like.

I see. I tried Nova Premium. Every time I try to personalize my phone with 3rd party apps, finally I go back to stock. EMUI doesn't like other apps but it is very good itself, if you like this style. If you don't like it, it's better to change the phone.

I am using Apex Launcher myself without any problem.
Make sure you have choose default launcher in Default apps settings.
Settings > apps > advanced > default apps > launcher and choose the one you are using
You can check my blog about it here. (delete*)h*ttps://3dbeach.wordpress.com/2017/01/07/removing-bloatware-on-android/
Peace
So I have Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (G935F) and I really dislike all the bloatware Samsung puts on their devices.
So I installed Custom ROM to get rid of it. More specifically I installed Efficient ROM which let me choose which apps i want to have on my phone.
Being sick of preinstalled apps I selected all of them to not be installed. Along with default Clock App.
Which at first didn't bother me at all since I could install Google Clock app from the Play Store.
But my problem started when I wanted to use alarm feature. Though app is very well adopted by the system (the alarm icon even appears on the AOD which I did not expect), when I clean all open apps
it also shuts down my clock app. Which is really bothering me since Alarm does not work when app is not running.
I could just leave clock app opened in the apps menu, but it's annoying since I usually close the apps I don't currently use.
So my question is: What can I do to keep Google Clock running in the Background when i close it from recent apps? I have in mind feature that, for example, Facebook app has; that keeps you updated on notification even when you close it.
And that I don't forget to mention... There isn't any option to set Google clock as a default app on the default apps menu in settings.
I really don't want to flash ROM again just because of the stupid clock so if there is any solution I will be very grateful to share it with me.
I would guess use a Root Explorer and change it from a user app to a system app. I'm a Samsung noob, though, so I could be wrong.

OK i figured out that if I disable xposed, app stays opened. Anyone else experienced that issue with having xposed installed? I also find out that it's preventing Hangouts and several other apps to run in background as well, so I can't get any notifications.
You could install xposed (if not already done) and download an app called App Settings. There you can set the app to be permanently running and/or hide it from the recent apps list.
Also, I don't think making it a system app will change anything as system apps, with a few exceptions, can also be closed from the recent apps just like user apps.
Edit: Just read you have xposed already installed. So just do as I said first, this way you can continue using xposed aswell as the clock app.

Thanks for your reply but don't keep activities is already unticked.
When I use any applock it works fine.but when I open the 'applock app' and swipe it from the recent activities it's permanently terminated.and then locked apps like whatsapp can be opened without password bcz the applock is not running in background.
Same happens when I swipe jio4gvoice from recent apps the app notification form the status bar disappears and no calls can be made from phones built in dialer.i think u got my point now.
