A few software questions - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

A few questions:
1) Is there a expanded desktop option on Huawei Mate 9?
2) Does Nova Launcher work well on the letest update on it?
3) I would appreciate if someone could post a screenshot with the View Mode on the smallest and the Font Size on the smallest?
4) Hows it going with the release of the Kernal of the phone? Lineage Os?
5) How well have the camera worked on previous Huawei phones with custom roms, have they still been the same afterwards? I have experienced on three different phones that the camera went worse after installing Cyanogen Mod, Lineage Os...
6) How hard is it to port the camera app from Huawei to an custom rom?

Great work!
Thank you!
HEY
guys, if you install cyanogenmod 12.1 without doing an erase data and cache, all apps will be there, y did this and the asus pixelmaster camera is working all, bu the selfie don't, but the thing is this, if you restart the zenfone 5 with this it will bootloop
One of the best aspects the zenfone 5 is its pixelmaster camera which can take brilliant photos under proper lighting conditions. And to utilize this camera properly we need the pixelmaster camera app. The above port (though a much appreciated effort from the developer) is barely usable. eagerly waiting for a fully functioning port for cm12.1 ROM.

Yes. I agree completely. I just got mine. I love the phone. Now, if I could root it, I could increase the dpi and delete the bloatware. It could be even better!

Same here, CM12 would be awesome on this beast. Check a few threads Chewy there is root, recovery and even a Custom ROM.
Indeed
CM12 would be amazing on this device... EMUI isn't for me
How can we make this happen?
First huawei should release the source. Then you'll have to find a developer.
If you don't like EMUI why not use a different Launcher?
I use Nova Launcher and you can customize it to your liking and EMUI is pretty much invisible.
I used CM12 on my Note 4 but I got pretty tired of updating every day. Even the latest X2 EMUI 3.1 Beta ROM is rock stable and fast and battery life is pretty awesome.

It may be stable but i found EMUI a bit buggy on some aspects, especially after changing the resolution.
Icon's having the wrong background position for the group icons, installed programs icons are not the full anymore, in landscape when you slide the menu down, there are no soft navigation buttons at the bottom ( making it impossible to exit the program ). EMUI also seems to hide some settings ( like the mtp usb setting that is normally under the Settings - Storage menu, nowhere to be found. It shows up in the notification bar *uch* ).
Battery life has less to with EMUI then, the fact that the X2 is running a 5000mAh battery with two cpu core sets ( little.big A53's ) who both are by default power saving ( and the screen is also not a big energy usage ).
The reason why CM may be interesting is the fact that its already a optimized version with not too much junk programs. I was surprised at how little ( relatively ) was left of the 32GB... My ZU with 16GB had 11GB usable, while the X2 with 32GB has only 23GB available. If the rom was the same size as the ZU's ( what already packs a bunch of junk ), it means there needed to be closer to 28GB available.

You can remove a lot of the system APK's if you're rooted. I've removed a ton and the phone doesn't lag. I'm running my LCD density at 280 and don't seem to have any problems. I don't think the battery life will improve with CM12. Usually the battery life is worse but you get slightly better performance with any CM based ROMS. I'm running Apex launcher and I deleted the EMUI Launcher completely and the phone runs great.

Here's the Source for 5.0. Now we need to wait for 5.1.1 and get the source then hopefully we can find someone to build.

This is the source code for the kernel. Theoretically it might be enough if we have the device definition to compile in a CM like rom. Do we know any device close to our X2 HW specifications with CM support... ?

I think you can find a very similar launcher in Google Play... Maybe you're looking for something like this:

Thank you for correcting me. The Huawei Y300 and G510 both have some version of CM12 but they use Qualcomm processors.

Hopefully we can find something soon. Man, if we could get BlissPop on the X2 I'd love this phone so much more that I'd buy two more. I run it on my Nexus 6. It's a fantastic ROM! I'd also love if the Chinese TWRP could be ported to English. I'm sure soon enough it will be.

It is, already. Just after installing Chinese TWRP, you should put English UI theme to this folder in your phone memory: "\TWRP\theme". And rename file to "ui.zip".
You can get files here: h t t p s : / / yadi . sk /d/5YI63uiAhz5UD/Recovery/TWRP (just delete spaces in the link).
Get "287X_v1_1200_dark.zip" for example. Rename it to "ui.zip" and put "ui.zip" to "\TWRP\theme". Profit!

I came across those downloads while browsing that site a few days ago but I didn't know they were the themes. You think I would have learned from Owning a Nexus 6..DOH! Thanks for the post, it was very helpful.
Yes I can second that!!
Does anyone know of any ROMs for this phone??

Huawei
Thanks in part to device contributions from Huawei’s team directly, we are now supporting the Honor 4 & 4x (cherry), Ascend Mate 2 (mt2) and Snapto (g620_a2). These devices represent the first set of Huawei devices we’ve supported since CM 7(!) and it’s nice to see the company supporting the community ahead of the rumored Huawei Nexus. We’re expecting good things to come here.

Ques. Regarding Indian version

1. Is NOVA LAUNCHER installable?
2. What is the max fps in slow motion videos?
3. Will it ever support root or gcam or custom roms?
4. By any other means can we atleast make it look like stock android ( and also change quick settings panel )
5. Is d2tw and d2ts supported?
1. Yes
2. 240fps @1080P
3. Highly unlikely.
4. Probably not.
5. Don't know about this one.

Android Developer Preview Discussion Thread

Hey Guys,
Want to discuss about the latest android developer preview
Will share the findings here.
All are welcome to do it here.
Hope we can create a stable preview soon.
First of all, apps which need to pass a security check don't work in the current build:
- Netflix
- Pokemon Go
- Others?
* The new gesture navigations options can't be found yet under Settings > System > Gestures. Although you can find the 3 options if you search in the settings, you can't change it.
* Some settings can only be changed via the developer options (accent colors, icon shape).
* Signal bar is not visible in the notification bar
Yup.
And fortunately, i am not facing some problems which are mentioned on the Nokia's community page.
Some missing features which i noticed are -
1. Gestures
2.Buggy Download manager
3.VoLTE seems to be working but not completely. I can receive calls but not make calls and send/receive sms.
4.Camera works fine. However, its the vanilla version of Camera app provided by Qualcomm so nothing special expected from it. Nokia will replace that app with it's own in upcoming builds.
5.External storage like SD card is not accessible by third-party apps but only system apps compatible with Android Q . I guess there are some changes with Storage framework because of which apps are not able to access SD card. Checked this with Whatsapp, instagram.
6.Apps requiring Google certifications/safety net or something similar would not work because the OS is still in Development phase.
7.Fingerprint is working fine, but is slow.
8.Dark theme is not properly applied over settings app.
9.Files app crashes when refreshing.
If you are reading this and thinking to update to Android Q Dev Preview. I would like to clarify that the OS is still in development and may get even worse with every update.
So, if you are not ready to use other phone as a backup do not update to Q.
Definitely facing all the above mentioned issues, in addition to Whatsapp being unable to restore backups from Google drive.
Anyways i made the mistake as installing this as my daily driver... Do you guys have any idea if it's possible to rollback even if there's no official support for that?

just saw it... "We are currently unable to support rollback to Android 9 Pie. We hope to have manual rollback support available by 16 May 2019. The website will be updated as soon as manual rollback is available." https://www.nokia.com/phones/en_int/developer/
Manual roll
Hey guys just wanted to let you know that Nokia update their dev website with a manual Rollback method

This is preview beta. Very unstable and more for developers. When Q OTA comes your hardware won't change. That's permanent. ?

as android app developer. want to start building up rom for our phone Nokia 8.1
not sure no body yet started discussion on this.
Nevermind...
There is any changes in Beta 5 OTA build? Because when I flashed developer preview manually, there was a serious bug, if I touch fingerprint sensor device was stopped working only reboot is option, even if device is just locked and if I touch on fingerprint device stopped working, so I simply rolled back to pie
Recently installed Android 10 OTA build version 00WW_4_070 (directly from pie). I see a working option to unlock the bootloader under the developer options page. Any devs working on rooting and/or a custom rom?

I installed the ota update (v5) last night. I had faced the same issue regarding the fingerprint sensor after manual install. For the time being, I see that the phone is working well. But when I m receiving calls, I am not able to answer right away. The phone app is freezing or disappearing in the background.

Problem with MIUI 12.5.2

Hi, I have poco F2 pro. Last week I updated to MIUI 12.5.2 and Android 11. However, I regret this decision because of small inconveniences.
1) Digital Wellbeing's Focus Mode does not work properly anymore. I still receive notification sounds even if Focus Mode is turned on. It was working properly before updating to 12.5.2 and Android 11.
2) On Nova launcher, recents button has no animation.
3) Another problem is small weird bugs and for example square chat heads on messenger but this is not a big problem. Most important is 1) and 2).
Anyways, my question to you is: which version of Xiaomi.eu stable ROM should I get? I want 1) and 2) problems to be fixed. does it have to be Android 10? MIUI 12.0? I honestly don't remember what version I had before updating but think this problems don't happen with Android 10. So which version would you recommend to downgrade to? So that it fixes my problems (Focus Mode is the most important). Thanks in advance, I need your help very much.

You will need to unlock the bootloader to downgrade .
An android 10 rom should work without these bugs.
