Do Not Forget To Press Thanks If You Like It

Hi!
Do you believe that there will be a global version of this in the future? Or am I supposed to stop dreaming of it and just update to this from stock 7.0G?
Thanks for the upload!
What I don't understand and it is really annoys me is why each any every app wants to have access to internet. Even calculator request it as well as video and gallery.
Is there a reason for that except sending some report (maybe all my data ) back to Meizu?

Global development is mostly dead. Don't expect an update on global. If you want update, just go to A.

You can block access to internet on security.Atleast flyme is allowing to do so.
Did anyone have issue with the NFC? I uploaded the "Super Night View" edition, which is also downloadable form flyme.cn and the NFC reader doesn't do anything. I tried different apps and none of them read any tags. The apps are aware if the NFC is disabled as it request to enable first. But can't read any tag.
Is the "Super Night View" mode reachable in the camera app in the firmware uploaded here?
Tried both type of 7.3 ROMs and the NFC doesn't work in any of them. The NFC reader app is aware if it is on or off but can't recognise any tags.
Does anyone having the same issue? Is there a solution for it? Or maybe my phone is defective?

I think you misunderstood NFC in p6p as ordinary one. Understand that, android beam is not supported by it.So that we can't use it to read tags and further. Its only use is for paying at shops. But also it is limited to some chinese banks and apps.So basically no use of nfc for global users.
Talking about super night mode on camera. Still not implemented even it's available as new feature. Hope it comes with flyme 8 if they release one for p6p.

Not true, I am using it for paying and it is not chinese app. I have tried with 2 banks in Poland and it is working.
Now i have some problems with debugging mode. Despite the fact I can run it no phone, the let's say home unit, is not seeing my phone.

Wish List for [email protected]

------Please Read Complete------
Features request:
• Activity, quick settings, Shortcut:
1: A custom quick setting tile to Trigger Power menu(not just reboot but whole menu like what KEYCODE 26 does but long press as a tap)(I know it can be done from navigation bar but it decreases my qs tiles rows from 3 to 2 and navigation bar misbehaves with my configurations) and a Screenshot tile also.
2: Every activity Should be Available as a shortcut for Home Screen. Activity Launcher(F-droid) App does Similar.
• Backgrounds:
3: Only keep gradient/ hue and Solid Colours in BG App when offline and rest should be available at some LineageOS repository via internet to BG App when online. This will:
a) Much reduction in App size as BG app only had Wallpapers in Image Format rest all were code when i checked inside app. b) More Choice to users. c) These are just bloat for users who use their own BG collection or Gallery Images as BG.
•Calender:
4: Please Bring back Year View to the calendar app.
5: I think Calendar App is useless for people without GMS as we cannot add events to the app or we have to download an add-on(Offline Calendar) with a weak security structure, so isn't it better if it is implemented natively in the system as People with GMS would also not oppose this.
•Launcher:
6: Application Lock is useless without covering AOSP Package Manager(For non-GMS only) and system settings from QS.
•Snap:
7: RAW(DNG) support would be a game changer.
•System:
8: Option in system settings to manually change Standard Output (here, Audio)to Speaker, earpiece or audio jack(if connected).
•KeyBoard:
9: AOSP Keyboard should follow system theme(both default and Black and not dark blue) and also accent.
10: Adding Key Boarders like GBoard(not swiftkey) will be very impressive and prevent me from using GBoard as i dont like GMS.
•Calculator:
11: Orders of Magnitude converter for Calculator App.
•AudioFX:
12: Divide AudioFX into two sections, Basic and Advanced where basic is like how AudioFX is currently present and Advanced is with 10 band equalizer and L-R controller.
Questions:
Q1: What is the use of that option "Left Shortcut also Unlocks" in Lock screen preferences?
Q2: Why don't Lineage OS support all the DPI(from Low to xxx High). If yes then why do many preferences break with DPI change.
Q3: Why was the option to clear cache of all installed applications from storage section of settings removed?
Problems:
P1: Style only work for Primary User in multi user mode.
P2: Changing Accent in any user changes accent of Primary user and keep Default on rest all Users always.
P3: Navigation bar and Launcher rows and columns also get disturbed with Setting up Multi User.
• Note: Multi user in above sentences is not Work Profile or Restricted profile but a separate user from Settings>System>Multi Users.
• Setup: 270 DPI(640 as smallest width in developer Options) in primary user and default on rest(2 excluding primary) and navigation bar activated on Primary user but not on rest.
NOTE: Sorry if my Language hurt anyone especially Hardworking Creators and contributors to LOS but this was my suggestion for improvement.
Please make Pixel 3a XL an official supported device.. (Bonito)
Yes

Important one for me:
- Enable Call Recording for all countries (Why the hell do the developers even care about recording laws? Let the users decide what they want to do with their devices!)
- Provide option to automatically start call recording.
Nice to have:
- Full screen alarm clock (for swiping to snooze or terminate the alarm)
Reason for that: If someone swipes the notification away, the alarm sound continues and you have no way to terminate it except by rebooting the phone.

[EMUI History] Journey from EMOTION UI 1.0 to EMUI 10.1

Hello Everyone,
If you are using HONOR/HUAWEI Devices you might have an idea that Huawei does some customization to stock Android by adding the flavor of EMUI on top.
Huawei started introducing EMUI version on 30th December 2012 by introducing EMUI 1.0. From that moment on, all Huawei Smartphones are coming with EMUI on top of Android, except for when Huawei join hands with google to launch a Nexus 6P Smartphone.
Let's start with EMUI 1.0 and go all the way up to EMUI 10 and see what changes Huawei made in EMUI over the years:
1. Emotion UI 1.0:
Huawei Introduced EMUI 1.0 back in December 2012. At that time Huawei called it Emotion UI 1.0 and it was based on Android 4.0. It also featured Huawei's own voice assistant app but only in china.
Other prominent features of EMUI 1.0 include:
1. Customizable HomeScreens
2. Theme Switching
Huawei later rolled out the installation of EMUI 1.0 for Huawei Ascend P1 Smartphone
Some of the Features Screenshot from Ascend P1 running EMUI 1.0:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
​
2. Emotion UI 2.0:
In Januray 2015, Huawei released Emotion UI 2.3 firmware based on Android 4.4 Kitkat for its Ascend P6 users. Earlier it launched the Emotion UI 2.0 but due to its limited roll-out not much information is available on Emotion UI 2.0.
Here is a screenshot of Ascend P6 running emotion ui 2.3 beta
3. Emotion UI 3.0:
This version is officially launched on 4 September 2014 with Ascend Mate 7 in the pre-IFA event in Berlin. The user interface was ever since called “EMUI” instead of “Emotion UI”.
Following are the prominent features of EMUI 3.0:
Theme Manager:
Themes now also are able to set basic color schemes of the built-in applications, meaning there's something there for everybody's taste.
Tabbed Recent Tasks
Instead of having a linear list of screen caps or a card design as found in Android 5.0, Huawei offers a "tabbed" interface, showing 4 applications per screen and swipe-able screens to be able to scroll through the tab windows. Swiping a tab up closes the application, swiping it down locks it from being closed by the memory manager. Alternatively, you can swipe from the bottom of the screen to close all apps.
Network Manager:
EmUI 3.0. Huawei provides fine-granularity controls over installed applications on the phone. As such, you're able to determine network access (WiFi or mobile data) on a per-app basis in the Network Manager, while also monitoring their data usage. A Notification Manager enables you to control which applications are allowed to push notifications to the system, giving the possibility to have apps prompt, or directly whitelist or blacklist them.
Permission Manager:
The Permission Manager is also extremely competent, almost totally foregoing Android's built-in permission settings. You can have an application prompt for specific permissions whenever they actually need them and accept or deny them on a per-app, per-permission basis. The Android app ecosystem has an issue with applications requesting a lot of, sometimes dubious permissions. I see this as Huawei's attempt at alleviating user concerns about security. For those who think this might be a too bothersome system - I strongly disagree; it is not very intrusive, while still being able to provide lots of power of control.
Battery & Power Manager:
The Battery and Power Consumption managers again offer lots of information - Huawei seems to be very strict in trying to reign in power abusive and misbehaving applications. If you have an application which is running in the background and taking up a more-than normal amount of CPU cycles a notification warning will tell you about it and give you the possibility to kill the app. A manager dedicated to listing the background power of all applications on the phone enables you to identify power drains.
App Lock Feature:
You can also use your fingerprint to protect contacts, and message conversations, private albums and even per-app locking mechanism. This is one of the more attractive Android OEM skins
4. EMUI 4.0:
Huawei launch EMUI 4.0 In late 2015, based on Android 6.0, along with the Huawei Mate 8. Following are the prominent features of EMUI 4.0
Multi Window:
You can open 2 apps at a time using multi window option and therefore multi tasking can be done with ease
SoS Feature:
A combination of buttons can be used in order to generate SOS message and call. It will get your exact location from gps and will send the SOS message to your listed emergency contacts
Compass Application:
The newly added compass application is very useful for finding the correct directions. The App also turns on the camera so that you can have a better idea about North/West/South/East directions
Alarm Ringtone duration:
With the option to customize the alarm ringtone duration, you can now set the duration according to your own needs. You might be a lazy person who never gets up with the 1 minute alarm duration but now you can set the duration of alarm to make sure that you don't get late for office/school.
Screen recording
Screen recording is that you can record on your phone screen after opening. With this feature, you can create a small video tutorial, easy to guide the distant relatives or friends.
Join Contacts Feature
Join Contacts Feature available which can be used to merger contacts from different accounts (e.g Facebook, Gmail, Phone Contacts etc) into a single particular person contact
Intelligent Contacts
Contacts saved with same company name will be grouped.
Message-Cancel send within 4 seconds
Do you have this moment, which you found the wrong message sent within 0. 01 seconds after click it? Encountered this issue, how do you feel? The new version adds a feature to cancel message sent, as long as you cancel sending the SMS within 4 seconds.
Soft lock
Soft lock feature is provided for convenience, to enable go to Smart assistance-> Navigation bar.
5. EMUI 5.0:
EMUI 5.0 was introduced in 2016 with the launch of Huawei Mate 9. Its based on Android Nougat 7.0
Following are the noticeable features added in EMUI 5.0 version:
App-Drawer:
With EMUI 5.0, Huawei finally added a traditional app drawer. This is a welcome change as most of the Android Users including me prefer using App Drawer instead of using Apps from HomeScreen
The app drawer isn't enabled by default, but you can easily turn it on from the settings. Just head to Settings -> Home screen style -> Drawer to switch to enable the traditional app drawer. The drawer sorts your installed apps in a vertically scrolling list, and there's a suggestions pane at the top that shows you your frequently used apps along with a search bar.
Quick Toggles n Notification Panel:
In EMUI 5.0, Huawei went with the two-stage notification window that includes quick toggles at the top of the pane. The quick toggles are customizable, and there's also a brightness slider that lets you easily adjust the display's brightness.
Notifications work the way they're supposed to on Nougat — you can easily expand and swipe away alerts, and use in-line replies to compose a quick reply without having to go into the app.
UI gets an Overhaul:
EMUI 5.0 brings the biggest visual refresh to the skin in recent years. Huawei's stock apps now feature predominantly white visual elements with blue accents "inspired by the Aegean Sea," and the UI as a whole feels significantly less cluttered. The settings have also been simplified, giving you easy access to core functions without having to go several levels into a sub-category.
You can now use display scaling options to adjust the size of the interface elements and enable a blue light filter to reduce eye strain at night. There's also the ability to tweak the color temperature of the display, alter the configuration of the on-screen nav keys, change the look of the UI with themes, and much more.
Battery Saving features:
Huawei has overhauled the battery saving feature in EMUI 5.0. Battery is now a top-level category in the settings, and the manufacturer has added new power-saving features that allow you to eke out the most from the battery
The standard power saving mode kills background apps, turns off auto sync and animations to maximize battery life. The "Ultra" mode switches everything off, only giving you access to six apps of your choice. Dialer, Messaging, Contacts, and SOS are set as default, but you can remove them and add your own apps. The mode is designed to extend battery life when the battery level is low, and it certainly manages to do that.
EMUI also has an optimization feature that lets you identify apps that are consuming too much battery in the background, and you also have the option of lowering the screen resolution to increase battery life.
App Twin Feature:
https://iforum-sg.c.huawei.com/dddd/images/2020/4/23/3203d493-7640-400c-abcb-47dc8f39b67d.jpg?imageId=116013[/IMG[/CENTER]]
The most exciting feature about Huawei EMUI 5.0 is the AppTwin Feature that lets you use run 2 instances of the most common social media apps (Whatsapp & Facebook etc). This means that you can turn on the App Twin feature and can create separate accounts for business and personal usage with ease and without the need to carry 2 handsets
[COLOR="Red"][B][SIZE="5"]6. Emotion UI 8.0:[/SIZE][/B][/COLOR]
EMUI 8 was released in late 2017 by Huawei with the launch of Huawei Mate 10 Series. Huawei skipped EMUI 6.0 & 7.0 to align EMUI versioning with Android 8 OS and that is why it used EMUI 8.0
Let's take a look at prominent features of Huawei EMUI 8.0:
[B] Improved Gesture Controls[/B]
This feature can be enabled using the Settings menu under “Smart Assistance”. EMUI 8.0 can take screenshots with the help of intelligent tricks. This can be done by sliding down three fingers for a perfect screen shot. Every screenshot you click is supported by a pop up screen with the option to edit, share, and take a scrolling screenshot.
Single - handed mode on EMUI 8.0 is also amazing and can be enabled from Smart Assistance. To launch this feature, you have to swipe down and form a small curve from the left and right side. Meanwhile, you can continue using the phone’s functions normally in the small screen. If you wish to go back to normal mode, just tap on the outer screen.
[B] Floating Navigation Dock[/B]
If you are a Mate 10 or Mate 10 Pro user then you must be aware that there is no hard key to navigate the phone, therefore you can facilitate from floating navigation dock.
First, you need to enable it by going to [B]Settings > Smart Assistance > System Navigation.[/B]
[CENTER][IMG]https://iforum-sg.c.huawei.com/dddd/images/2020/4/23/664380e6-f369-40b3-b0da-e2f5b709292c.jpg?imageId=116064​
You can now view a white button on the screen which is the floating navigation dock. Although it looks similar to Apple’s Assistive Touch, but the functions are entirely different. Pressing on the navigation dock and pulling it left or right will launch the recent apps tab. If you tap it once it will take you back to the previous. And pressing on it and releasing it will take you back to the Home screen. You can even drag the navigation dock around the screen.
Mobile PC Dock less
This feature can support most of the apps, and protect privacy of users, along with incoming notifications. You can share presentations, watch movies, carrying bulky document etc. Therefore you can use your Smartphone and connect it with bigger displays with ease. All you need to use Huawei's EMUI 8 desktop mode is a USB-C-to-HDMI cable -- and an HDMI monitor.
Dynamic Wallpaper
The theme app is already there on Huawei devices that enable the users to customize wallpapers and more. “Dynamic Wallpaper” is the new concept that is present on EMUI 8.0. This wallpaper is mainly of landscape and it changes its texture with every passing day. For instance, during morning hours, wallpaper will display sunrise, and by evening it might show sunset.
Battery launch
You can save battery on EMUI 8.0 using this feature which can be accessed as ‘Launch’ in the Settings menu. You can optimize battery usage for each app on your smart phone. You can manage battery usage either manually or automatically. You can toggle on/off three options for an app to auto launch, secondary launch, or run in the background.

9. Emotion UI 10.0:
On August 9, Huawei held the HDC2019 Huawei Developer Conference in which Yu Chengdong, president of Huawei’s consumer business, officially released the Hongmeng operating system. Subsequently, Wang Chenglu, president of Huawei’s consumer BG software division, officially released Huawei EMUI 10 Features.
Now that EMUI 10 has been launched on wide variety of devices, we can look into some of the most exciting features of EMUI 10:
Brand New Look:
Key changes in EMUI 10 focus on improving the look and feel of the operating system. Huawei has broken this down into four main categories — the new Magazine Design philosophy, a low saturation color palette, enhanced Dark Mode, and improved natural animations. We’ll get to all of them in time, but let’s start with the cosmetic changes.
EMUI 10 retains a familiar look and feel to its past few versions. The desktop drawer, flexible navigation options, and various menus all retain that familiar Huawei aesthetic. You will notice a few icon changes here and there but nothing drastically different in that department.
There’s now much more white space around headers and title texts, such as the clock and date in the quick settings menu and the icons in the notification bar. This extends throughout Huawei’s apps, including email, contacts, and even the options in the settings menu are separated by a tad more space. There’s also more space around notifications too, so they’re not as tightly crammed together as in previous versions.
This new color palette was invented by George Morandi, the famous Italian painter, and comprises of soft subtle colors over a light grey background. In the contacts app, contacts without a picture are given one of the six soft color tones instead.
Fluid animations:
Another cosmetic change in EMUI 10 is the introduction of more “natural” animations. For example, pressing a button or object it depresses it down into the screen before springing up. Larger objects appear to spring back up with more force. It’s pretty cool to watch, but I get the feeling not too many people will notice. Which maybe is the point after all?
Huawei has also improved the animation transitions between apps. The frame rate of these transitions has increased, smoothing out their appearance and reducing any appearance of lag. There’s also a cool “Projectile Motion” animation when exiting an app, where you can move the window around the screen and watch it fly back towards the home screen app icon.
The UI seems to be very responsive with EMUI 10 and that is why EMUI 10 is a big upgrade from EMUI 9.1
Enhanced Dark Mode:
Huawei Launched the Dark Mode option back with EMUI 9 but there were some issues, as some of the apps were not optimized enough to handle the Dark Mode. EMUI 10 solve all those issues. Although Dark Mode is one of the main features of EMUI 10 but Huawei has even outperformed the Dark mode implementation than Stock Android Smartphones.
Huawei’s Dark Mode applies not just to the OS UI but also to its pre-installed apps. This includes email, contacts, clock, photos, notes, etc.
Camera:
Huawei is well known for its smartphone camera prowess and it appears that a number of new features and tweaks are heading to the camera app in EMUI 10 as well.
A few UI changes caught my eye, including a simple black background, reworked zoom slider, and an AI toggle button. The Aperture shooting mode now also lists the level of bokeh blur by f-stop rather than just a number.
You also get a gyroscopic stabilization assistive grid when you turn on the assistive grid while making a video. This helps a lot if you want to shoot a steady and stable video.
The biggest change though is the introduction of new color grading options. The old Standard, Vivid, and Smooth options have been replaced by your choice of 11 new filters. These still include the three original options, now with Leica branding, while also offering monochrome and other color palettes. Other manufacturers have provided a wide range of shooting profiles for a while now, so it’s nice to see Huawei expanding its options too.
10. Emotion UI 10.1:
Huawei released its Flagship P40 series with the all new EMUI 10.1 Software on 26th March 2020. Surprisingly EMUI 10.1 came with lots of newly added features. Although most of the improvements were made in the Camera Department.
Let's take a look at the main features of EMUI 10.1:
Golden Snap:
One of the coolest and my favorite feature of EMUI 10.1, by using the Golden Snap feature you can remove the nearby character/people.
​
Mobile Office Multi-screen Collaboration:
Huawei EMUI 10.1 brings a new way of sharing and collaboration, all you need is just tap the Huawei Share button/icon from the navigation as shown in the image below.
No compression and no data consumption.
● It supports a notification center in the corner of the device.
● With a simple tap, smartphones and computers converge instantly
● Drag and drop text instantly.
MeeTime High-Quality Communication:
If you fancy Google Duo or Apple's Facetime but love Huawei handsets, you are in for a treat as Huawei has just launched MeeTime that connects you with your family and friends at any time and anywhere with high-quality video calls, even in low-light or poor network conditions. All you need is to select MeeTime app
Hey Celia: Huawei New Voice Assistant:
After Huawei was restricted to use Google Play Services, it came up with a new home backed Voice Assistant "Hey Celia".
To activate the voice assistant, you just have to say "Hey Celia" and you are ready to give commands to the Huawei Voice Assistant
Wireless Sound Transmission:
Although this feature hasn't been officially confirmed yet but according to Weibo blogger, Huawei 40 series phones support wireless sound transmission
After turning on, the external sound can be transmitted from the mobile phone to the Bluetooth headset or Bluetooth speaker in real-time.
Gallery: Single search, Multiple devices, New distributed file system:
We live in a world where we are used to using multiple devices for multiple tasks, depending on what task is at hand. Reading a book on a Tablet might be better than reading it on your Smartphone or your Laptop, similarly, taking photos is easy with a Smartphone instead of a tablet.
Furthermore, our devices have limited storage space, so we might move a few files (including images) from one device to another to free up some storage space but in some cases this becomes nightmare if you are unable to find your required image.
Luckily Huawei has developed a solution for that and EMUI 10.1 is implementing it:
You can access your photo gallery on any of your devices like Huawei’s vision or a MatePad as shown in the image below. When it connected to the same home Wi-Fi network, you can also quickly search crossed devices and instantly share your images.
Here are a few more noticeable features of EMUI 10.1:
● Huawei New Themes
● New Vibrant AOD
● 3D Rendered AOD – Low power consumption
● UI More Smooth
● Convenient Multi-Window – (Drag & Drop Easily & Smooth)
● More Secure
Here is the Huawei EMUI versions release dates if you are interested in that as well:

Thank you for posting that!! I would never know some features started In such old versions. I love the message sending delay, knuckle gestures, built in screen rec, and way more. To be honest a big nostalgia hit me after reading all that.
