Emui App Lock and Facebook Messenger - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hi, i can't see Facebook Messenger in the App Lock list and I don't know why :crying:
I'd like to have Messenger locked with fingerprint, can you help me?
P.s. sorry for my bad english

Hi Panther, I have the same issue have you found a solution ?

I use Tasker + AutoTools for this, it's much faster than Huawei's native app lock.
Basically you create a full screen message that blocks the app as soon as it's launched, and the only way to get rid of the message and continue to the app is by fingerprint.

Any update!

There is no deal with emui applock and facebook. Try to add Facebook to protected apps and then u see what u want

Context is App Launch, here's the task settings.
Some may not apply to you, for example if I'm in my car I disable the app lock.

This looks like a better option than the native one.

It is indeed better.

Hi Panther I found the solution download keepsafe applock just Google for keepsafe applock apk mirror then download it.

my device has the same problem, but I can't fix it. because huawei built-in apps locker has no apps add an option, only we can lock available apps. that is a big disadvantage .. someone knows a solution for this problem please reply it below.:good:

2. open App Cloner , in tab Apps serach for Messenger that you have in your phone and clic on it
3. in case name change messenger to any thing you want for me i put "F. Messenger"
4. clic on the Nike arrow to begin Clonning proccess.
5. once messenger is clonned a window will appear just clic on install F.messenger.
6. go to your native app lock and search for F. Messenger and select to protect it.

Ok. Now I understand. Well it's possible but not like you want, because the FACEBOOK app is developed by Facebook creators so only they can add those things to app. The solution would be to wait for upcoming updates of Facebook and they should add that feature to app. If you want to speed it you can contact facebook developers and ask to add this feature. More users will ask sooner the feature would be available.
And another way you should be able to use it go to browser and then to facebook where you really will able to use it
And press THANKS appreciate my help

[HOW TO] Install Note8 APKs no root

I was at BestBuy today and decided to extract some APKs from the Note8. I can confirm most of these work, like the Camera. If you have that install error factory reset your phone and don't set a screen lock method then install then ASAP. Stuff built for API 25/Android 7.1.1 wont install. Most will though. Don't try installing the keyboard. I will upload this to androidfilehost also.

all that have an icon on your phone. I will type up a list. Most do.
Am I missing something? The download contains about half the apps listed.
Nm, stupid root explorer
I can't get them to install. It goes through the motions but then says app not installed because of an app with the same name.
Any workaround?

If it makes you feel any better, I have newer app versions than all these, even touchwiz by downloading from Apkmirror and installing.

And I don't mean to degrade your work. It's appreciated, however there are newer versions elsewhere. Many of these apps are useless to S8 users anyway. I was mainly meaning that statement as a Head up champ, you're not missing out on much.

I know, I plan to keep updating this when I can get the firmware release and keeping this up to date. I am also trying to get the Note8 keyboard to work with live messages. Still working but I got some Overwatch Summer Games to play before I work on that.
TIP: DO NOT install the phone app. While making a call the call connects but it sits at the dialer seem like there's no call going on. I believe it's the phone 1.0 but the app will not uninstall without a factory reset.

So what's the APK called in the package from OP?
We can simply install the apk right?
This works for me on a G955W with the August security patch: whatever Secure Startup is set to, toggle it (i.e. turn it on if it's off and turn it off if it's on), then reboot. Installing APKs over top of system apps works now.
Is there apps that can be installed without factory reset , without package already exist on installation?
Just if someone is able to normally install at least one, can you let me/us know which one ? (to know if its worth to download, for slow internet connection like me) thanks

For huawei mobile, Settings - Battery - Battery usage details, tap the Info icon upper-right corner, you will find a rank for 'Top 4 battery using apps'.
In addition, you can scroll timeline in the chart.

thank you,
i think you are write, noticing more than 25% from 2 to 3 days... on your thread link there nobody replied which means, i think, nobody yet faced or noticed this problem who have installed whatsapp.
when i am using force stop in settings->apps after some time it started automatically, can i configure to not start automatically?

Re the battery status what do you mean?
Re the Widget - I did think of that but I wasn't sure what value it would add ... you mean to more easily launch it?
What I *really* want to do is create a Tizen 5.0 complication so that people can place the launcher on their watchfaces ... hope Tizen 5 devices come out soon!
Amazing job.

My reading of the Google Assitant terms of service is that it is for new hardware devices only, but I'd love to be told I'm wrong, since I'm pretty sure I've done a lot of the hard work with the low-level audio and http/2 connections already.

In the watch app you can swipe right to an empty screen. Why is this there?
Registration
Hello. Just bought the app from the GalaxyApps Store. However, every time I launch it from the watch, it gives me a new registration code. I enter it, I get the message saying it was successful and my registration is now complete. Then it happens all over again. What am I doing wrong?
Edit: OK, it seems to be fine now. On the 9th or 10th try, it stayed registered. I don't think I changed anything from one instance to another, so I couldn't tell you what caused the different outcome.

It shows visual feedback for some questions, such as "How deep is the ocean". I'll add an explanation on the page in the next release since you are not the only one who has asked about this.

Hi,
Which phone and watch do you have? I know it does not show up in the iPhone Galaxy Apps because they do not list paid apps there .
If you have an S3 or Sport can you verify that you have the Tizen 4.0 update applied?
Also could you let me know what country you are in, and what country your account is registered to? I've enabled it for everywhere except China, but I've had someone from Costa Rica that was not able to find it either.
I'm still trying to find my way around the Samsung store.

Damian

Is Alexa or your app able to write and send messages using voice recognition ? It's a pain with "period" and punctuation signs in S-Voice ...
Which languages are supported ?
Thanks for your work anyway.

AFAIK you can't use Alexa to write and send voice messages ... the app doesn't "know" anything about your Watch or Phone ... it just provides Alexa functionality (general questions, home device control etc.). It should support any language that Alexa supports .. the language it uses depends on the Amazon account you use to sign up. Definitely English, German and Itialian .... but all should work (if Amazon Alexa supports them).
Will this be possible in future updates??
I love it ! Are you able change the voice output on app ? I.E. Different voices ? The current sometimes is a little low and hard to understand. Thank you and amazing job !
