New update bug? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

So I'm not sure if this has happened with anyone but with the new update I've actually have no longer had the playback issue. Which is also a great thing. But! Every time I restart the phone NFC turns on. Is anyone else having the same issue?

I remember seeing "NFC On by default (or startup)" in the L04 update changelog.

NFC is set to "on" by default. To turn NFC "off",
Open [click to enlarge] Settings.
Touch More > NFC.
Turn on/off the NFC switch to enable NFC.
Turn on/off the Huawei Beam switch to enable Huawei Beam.

A request, it would be nice with a function that the screen stays on while u watch on it, like Samsung and other phones have. And a built in EQ for the sound, the sound on Head phones is not good quality. Another thing i miss is tap to wake, why is that function gone?

And the ability to select an application like Deezer as the primary music player. And enabling double to wake would be nice too. TIA

Since there's someone from Honor here, I'd like to request double tap to wake too.

After new update devices can no longer connect to wifi hot spot of my honor 8. Open or wpa, nothing works.

the tricks is not turning off the screen completely like a lock, the screen is still on when you double tap it, just it is not very visible.
after you double tap, you still can scroll or tap the screen and the nav bar will shown.
I believe because of touch sensor build in lcd, & the can't separately powered.

There is a simple way to turn off the screen with double tap. But there is no way to turn on the screen with double tap.

any way to enable double tap to wake?

I travel a lot and need an easy way to wake my phone from sleep state while it's in the car holder. Does anyone have an idea? If I can't figure this out, unfortunately, it'll have to go.
Aside from clicking the power button or using 'ok goggle' voice commands I can't think of anything else.

Ok Google won't wake it from lock.
It will wake up and ask you for the PIN before proceeding so yeah not ideal.
Try settings, smart assistance, voice control, voice activation.
You have to set screen locking to none.
Enviado desde mi MHA-L29
If your car has Bluetooth, you can enable Smart Lock and get around the lock screen that way without disabling lock.
However for actual double tap to wake you'd need Huawei to implement it which shouldn't be too hard with the built-in DSP.
It's more about waking the phone from a locked state

Why don't Huawei just add this feature thru an update. GOD damn it.
Yea Huawei may be sleep and dont listen this standart function! Damn it! Why must click on buttons when I need view clock? Back to roots! High end mobile without user frindly function. Problem is lock screen app too. I use very little time Z11 from ZTE and this function there are without any issue. M9 bad experience!
Emui = stripped Android. We buy these phones to get away from Samsung but Huawei ends up trying up be like Samsung. It's like they didn't have a clue when they developed EMUI.

Huawei Nate 9 double tap to wake petition
Could we start a petition so that they consider it for a future update? Really sucks if you re on the road much and need to press buttons to unlock your screen...
Did anyone try this on Mate 10 Pro BLA-L29?
there is a voice wake up, and also voice answer a call: simply enable it, and say "answer call". it will turn on speaker and asnwering the car. so you really dont need to touch the phone at all. i tried it when i was driving, it works well to answer call., for make call, i have blue tooth connected to my car's big screen.
I've tried some DTTW apps on play store but they either don't work or suck too much battery power.
For now I've had to compromis and use an app called "Smart Screen On Off (New)" by Luutinh that works on proximity sensor. I use flip case for my phone but can work just the same by waving your hand across the screen.

I just found a problem with Unlocking the Razer Phone

here is a follow up to the issue https://youtu.be/OYjspJayhIE
Hmmmmm
Isn't there another setting for unlocking it automatically if you turn on the screen within x seconds after locking? Post it on Razerzone.com in the insider community section, a csr rep will see it.

Did you check your Smart Lock settings (in Security)? That's usually the culprit. Make sure On-body detection, Trusted places, Trusted devices are disabled, then try again and let us know

I haven't even touched the smart unlock but on body detection is on if you put your phone down on a table and double tap the screen it still does it
Sorry, so when all of them are off it still won't lock?
I usually find on-body detection very unreliable anyway. I personally wouldn't recommend keeping that on.

yeah its super unreliable
Forgot about geo-unlock..
Have you timed it and see how long it takes to lock by itself? Is it still doing it?
I would probably get ahold of a csr too, it is a fairly significant bug(if that's what it is) though I can't say I've seen any other reports in all the reviews...
I usually find on -body detection very pain full anyway. But i'm also not sure also little confuse.
Anyone having this issue? I've yet to see it happen...

Unlock on wrist option vanished?

Hey all,
There was an option to keep the watch unlocked when it was the wrist but I can't find it anymore and it is annoying to have to manually unlock all the time.
Did this option vanish for all people? I guess it was taken away in the last update.
I am on version
March security patch / Wear 1.5
Build Number 0WDD.180215.018

Not sure about a specific option, but mine doesn't do that. Maybe because I enabled always on display. That's under developer options.
Yes there was a specific option that has totally vanished.

I have always on option under display settings then under gestures tilt to wake, touch to wake, wrist gestures.
You can also change settings in Wear OS on phone

It's not tilt to wake or gestures that is now removed from the software, it's about the unlock.
There was an option to keep the watch unlocked when it was on the wrist so that the pin only needed to be input when you were not wearing / removed from arm and no heartrate detected.

This is crazy, now my watch asks for PIN even after 15mins since I used it. Can't use it normally
Seems that I need to ask Amazon for refund if this will work lie this.
The pin can be turned off but then it leaves the watch open if you lose it. In my case I find it accidentally does stuff while I am asleep or my daughter messes it up.

i have found that disabling the PIN also disables Google Pay. and even after re-enabling it, you have to set it up all over again.
from my understanding, the watch knows when it is on your wrist, so maybe you need to tighten the strap or check the heart rate monitor to always on.

Hmm, maybe when enabled Google Pay it removed the option.
I'll try disabling google pay and see if the option comes back - I can't use it in Germany anyway, I only want to use GPay when I am back in UK.

Turn off charging indicator

Ran into the same issue. Turns out it's the always on display. Turning it off in the settings wont work the only way to do it is disabling it entirely. The only way I found do it is disabling the app with adb or buying package disabler pro online and disabling it with that app.
Hey Jazz,
You hit the nail on the head. I went directly to the PluginAOD service and disabled it.
I really appreciate the help!
What app are you guys disabling as I cannot find it in all apps list
What's the app or service name?
Thanks

I'm using CCSWE App Manager (Samsung) from the Play Store.
Look for "Always on Display" and then disable the PluginAOD service

Does this allow you to still use Always on display?
Edit: I answered my own question, nope.
Hello Folks,
I ran into the same issue for my Note 10 + and I think am on the track of resolving this gracefully. I know of a developer who has created custom AODs which can disable a lot of elements of the system AOD, like clock battery etc for Note 9.
I have just contacted him here on the forum requesting for a paid version to fix this issue. It's just about removing a few lines of code from the AOD app which will resolve the issue.
Can you please support my post here and request Mr. Ash Man for help ? I am sure he will be able to fix it. Pls go here to support and read about his AOD mods. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80135868&postcount=223

There's a work around where you don't have to disable AOD or install any other apps. It's posted in one of the other half dozen threads about this issue. A quick search, or even just browsing the thread titles, and you should find it pretty easy.
Wow, what a helpful post. Thanks for providing no help or guidance to these answers with a simple link. If you can't halp, then don't comment
There is an option now to turn it off now (not sure if it is in android 10 only). Go to
Settings -> Display -> go to the bottom and search "Show charging information"
