I just noticed that the Apps Lock feature of the Overview mode that is SUPPOSED to be a standard feature is MISSING. Is there a special method to turn it on?
Are there OTHER standard features that are also missing?
Hopefully Oreo will be FULL featured!
That is not a stock android feature so it will probably not appear in Oreo.
It is SUPPOSED to be a stock feature
The stock feature that I am not seeing is the Battery indicator for Bluetooth devices connected.

Do Nexus or Pixels have it? I don't know if I'm understanding what you mean about app lock. Is it locking an app so it is not cleared from recents?
Yes press the hollow square key that displays recents or as they call it now overview. The upper right hand corner should have an X and just to the left a lock / unlock symbol. Apps locked never disappear from the list even after a reboot. BTW, a neat feature is to double tap the overview button. It will toggle between the last two screens you have been viewing!
Yeah that feature is not in AOSP neither in pixel/nexus software.
Oops it seems I was misled.
Sorry

Android lollipop has made notifications on lock screen.
But can i disable it for individual app. The Option to turn them off in settings also disables it it from the notification bar.
In my case, it is smart remote. It is on lock screen and pretty annoying.

Havent installed Lollipop yet.
But I use AC Display in my Note3 to manage my notifications.. You can Blacklist apps here...
The best thing I loved about the Moto X.

There is a way!
Remember... I´m on a Swedish phone and I don´t know whats the different tabs and apps are called in english.
Settings/Sounds and Notifications/Notifications(at the bottom of the page)... the same place where you set wich content is shown on the lockscreen. There´s a app-list where you can block apps from showing notifications...

Thank you but it also switches the notification off from the noti panel. I want to keep it there just want to turn it off from lock screen
Oh... I missunderstood

No, you can't do that. I have wasted hours, couldn't find anything, because there isn't anything.
PS: There might be an app which does that, but not really into that.
I love rooting my devices, but I try to keep them stock as long as possible when they are new because modding and tweaking start to become addictive. Now the bug has bitten me again and my device is rooted with more XPOSED modules than I can count. I've reached the point where I think I've found all the mods and tweaks that are available to me, so now I'd like to see if anyone else has a personal wish list of mods/tweaks they'd like to see for our devices. Here's my list (keep in mind, I'm running KitKat for the better battery performance):
View home screen and app drawer in landscape mode (yes - I know 3rd party launchers and Lollipop can do this, but I want it for stock KK launcher)
Truly separate navigation volume from media volume. Currently, Maps only lets you lower the navigation volume as compared to media, but sometimes, I want to turn the music down without also lowering the navigation voice.
I would like the notification pull-down menu to show quick settings automatically if no notifications are present. Gravity box has this tweak, but it doesn't seem to work.
If I was still running Lollipop, I'd want the ability to show the old power management graph. The new one uses too much screen real estate to show the useless portion of the graph (time remaining). We all would rather see more of the past history side of the graph that shows what has been draining the battery so we can stop it.
What's your wish list for mods/tweaks?
Double tap to wake that always works consistently in every situation... The earliest Firmware with which the phone was initially released had that. But since the first update it's hit or miss, when the phone was just laying around for some time.

Oh, and here's two more requests:
- The ability to take higher resolution panoramic photos (I think they're only 4mp by default)
- The ability to take horizontally scrolling panoramic photos while the phone is in the portrait orientation.
I just received my new moto x pure and I quickly updated to the exciting new marshmallow update. My previous phone was the OnePlus one, so maybe I'm spoiled, but there seems to be a distinct lack of settings on this phone.
For instance:
Can't change haptic feedback (vibration intensity) for things
Can't change quick settings tiles
Can't make the quick settings menu drop down from the sides of the screen
Can't change what the home back and menu button does on long press or double press
I read the help that comes with the phone on the notifications settings issue, however what they say to do doesn't work
Maybe I'm spoiled coming from the OnePlus one, but these key features are a little silly to be left out.
Those aren't stock settings sorry.
The OPO used CM as it's OS, right? Those are mostly CM features and not stock features.

Oh I see. But the help app says that I can change my quick settings tiles but they way it says to do it doesn't actually work. What about that?

Swipe down notifications, hold the settings cog until it starts spinning, it will unlock system ui tuner in settings.

Feedback Thread: Tell Honor What You Want in Future Software Updates!
How is everyone enjoying their Honor 8? I was curious about what everyone wanted to see in future updates or maybe the next version of the phone.
Some things I'd like to see
Android 7.0
App Drawer
More Theme Options
Power plan scheduler as said by @Droiderr at http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/power-plan-scheduler-t3482030
App drawer,
Good reflective design aesthetics,
Better RAM Management without closing more recently used apps,
Default VoLTE support and support for all LTE bands in that region.
I would like to see android 7.0 for sure
And I know it may just be me but I would like the phone on just standard android not emui.
My only other gripe is ram management and the way it handles closing recent apps.
To use smart keys for home, back or app switch
1. Better screen calibration by default.
2. Double tap the screen to wake.
3. Extend the functionality of the smart key. Eg. -While the screen is on, tapping on the fingerprint will function as back key. This is usefull for app that use full screen such as browser.
-Tap and hold to turn off the screen. This is a feature that is available on meizu device which is very useful. No need to press, just tap and hold the fingerprint and boom the screen turn off.
4. Performance and smart powerplan shortcut on the shortcuts tab. Might as well add 720p(rog mode) toggle.
5. Better camera interface. The current interface seriously need some redesign! Why the hdr is seperated from auto mode? The pro/manual mode uses ring adjustments which is annoying. Why not a simpler like a straight horizontal line for focus,exposure time,wb,iso adjustment?
6. Fix the damn camera settings! Whenever I open up the pro mode, the auxiliary light always turned on. It doesnt save my setting! Same goes to the image adjustment.
1080p stabilization without losing so much quality of the video. It looks worse than a normal 720p video.. and ability to zoom in the videos with using all the 12mp sensor, not just 'software zoom'
7.0
Better ram management
Better notifications! Quick reply from notification shade, not just in heads up.
Lockscreen improvements, reply from lockscreen
Update themes from theme app. So I don't have to go download the updates themes and put them in theme folder
I would like to see Android 7.0.1 as soon as possible.
Need to be able to change the notification volume independently of the ring volume, just like on my old Galaxy S5. Notifications should be on the volume list with its own slider!
center clock mod.
ambient display and double tap to wake.

Is anyone from Huawei aware of this thread?
I agree with everyone! This is a great phone but EMUI 5.0 update needs to come soon!
Something that hasn't been mentioned is discarding of notifications on the lock screen, e.g. swipe to the right.

Emui 5.
Nougat release.
It seems like the official Nougat builds are really horrible when it comes to notifications. I no longer have the option to turn on the display when receiving a notification, which is huge. But on top of that, I don't seem to get any notifications on the lock screen at all, or "heads up" notifications (the notifications that drop down from the top of the screen while it's on temporarily). Am I wrong? Have others gotten this stuff working? I am on AL10.
Well I got lock screen stuff going, it was just defaulting to disabled. But there seems to be no option to wake the display for notifications.

Hi,
I have NXT-AL10. Just got the phone 2 days back and I installed Android Nougat 7.0 directly from Huawei using Huawei ID.
I found a setting that may be the one or at least close to it.I also checked if the notification is displaying on the lock screen and it does. I have attached the screenshots.
When I unlock the phone and check the notifications they are there until I swipe them out. They are displayed beautifully. Unfortunately taking screenshot of that was bit difficult as the knuckle thing didn't work so well. I managed to get these. Hope this is what you are looking for.
Cheers!
Sam

I had an issue similar to this on 6.0, it was an issue with themes. Do you have anything under the screen lock style menu, under screen lock and passwords? I have a feeling thats my issue.
Screen lock style - screen lock passwords

Hi,
I checked under screen lock and passwords
options listed are
password, secure lock settings , smart unlock - under the subheading of "passwords"
under "lock screen"
screen lock style, magazine unlock and lock screen signature
under screen lock style
it just displays magazine unlock and when you click that it displays the same wallpaper and asks to apply.
under "magazine unlock settings"
subscriptons, auto-update over WLAN and auto-delete covers
There is a separate application called "Themes" and it shows all the themes. They all look alike but there is no download or edit options available. Even if we want to change or edit those themes, it seems like root is required. Are you rooted?
I have enclosed more screenshots to explain better. Hope you find what you are looking for, if I missed something please let me know if you want screenshot of any other menu or screen.
Cheers!
