I was hiking the slot canyon in Anza yesterday and when I finally got back to a restaurant, I realized the phone , which I'd never enabled anything in particular on, had counted all my steps and several other things.
Does anyone know how to disable step counting on emui 5? I've done all the obvious things, like "disable step counting". Thanks. I don't care how many steps I've taken, only that I arrived.
Also: I meant to mention this but forgot. The camera works great for me, but that isn't good enough for the Honor 8. After I've taken some pictures, about 3 hours later, it always pops up a notification that says "I've finished enhancing your picture of _____" . What if I don't want an enhanced picture? Is there a way to turn off all this irritating crap? Thanks again.

If you are referring to the step count being displayed on the lock screen then you disable it through the screen lock settings. Otherwise, I believe it's in the Health App itself.
Not sure about the photo enhancing. Never seen that one before.
What app do tell you about step counting.
Plus, clear data and cache of the camera app and see if the pop-up is still present
I didn't even know that the Honor 8 had a built in step counter app in it's software.

Well, I forgot the name, it was the Health app (HiHealth or something). Try to find it and open it, you will find all your steps and lots of other information about your "health".

Maybe you have already removed it ?
It's this one : http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/huawei...lease/health-1-1-26-310-android-apk-download/
But I have the chinese version of the Honor, so maybe some apps are differents ?

The only fitness app I can find is called "google fit". I've disabled it. However, the steps are still there after disabling them on the lock screen & disabling the fit app, so I think it may be a bug or else there is another counter that just keep going. It's not that bad and it doesn't eat up any noticeable energy.

I just realized I had an app called "Health" and disabled it, and now it is gone from the lock screen. The lock screen setup doesn't work for turning off steps (or not showing them). The app was located in the /system/app folder as hw-health-midware.apk

It seems that you have the Chinese variant, as the US model doesn't come with the health app.

Probably doesn't matter what my frd-l04 came with that I bought from newegg that I use on ATT. It matters more that I updated to Nougat and that's the beta which had the health app in it. On marshmallow, I never had the step counter or the health app.

I probably just don't recall it from Marshmallow since I updated the first day I got it. The good news is that it's called "healthd" and can be disabled and deleted as can all their crapware if desired. I just did that and I'm not rooted yet.

What I can confirm is, the huawei health isn't present in MM on FRD-L04 (US version)
Im confused as to why on the honor 5X there was an option to double tap to wake the phone and now this option is not found in the honor 6X.
Anyone know how to activate or make this feature work again? Thanks
you sure?? thats an emui feature, not device specific

Sure of what? I searched through all settings and its not found. And yes im sure the 5X had it and 6X does not.
I was reading on other huawei forums and it seems its sometimes hidden for some devices but you will need root to edit build.prop and show the option again

well, i think there is no 3rd party apps which can do dt2w, but you can find to dt2s,
but if you are rooted, there are ways..
I was surprised it's not an option too.
On the 6p it wasn't enabled by default but you could follow this if you were rooted :
/sys/devices/soc.0/f9924000.i2c/i2c-2/2-0070/input/input0/wake_gesture
And change the value in "wake_gesture" to 1
Or copy this in terminal emulator:
echo 1 > /sys/devices/soc.0/f9924000.i2c/i2c-2/2-0070/input/input0/wake_gesture
And that would enable it, unfortunately it didn't stick after a reboot so you would have to do it everytime. Might be worth seeing if the 6x has a similar workaround.

Im pretty sure it has a similar workaround since i was reading on the 5X forums that it was hidden and with some steps while rooted you can unhide this option. Im not sure why huawei decided to hide such a useful feature on this phone especially that it doesnt have a front home button to easily turn on the display to check the clock/notifications etc...
I still dont want to root my honor 6x just yet, waiting until there is a solid and safe way to root this phone.
Is double tap to wake a feature on the Honor 8?
I did find a easy_wakeup_gesture file using a root explorer.
Might be able to change the value of that to get the double tap working. I have only had the phone for a few hours so I'm not going to mess with that stuff quite yet.

the mate 9, 6x and honor 8 do not support dt2w. very disappointing.
I agree it is disappointing, an update would be welcome to remedy this problem (if the technique follows)
Hi,
I change some value in different file, and i can activate "double touch" in Settings » Motion control (under Smart assistance), but it doesn't work.
Does that mean that the kernel doesn't support it?
Thanks.
we need 3rd party
You will need a custom kernel to allow it.

I wouldn't count on many developers getting the device. Honor is not known for being developed friendly. So most avoid getting their devices.

its not there for any kirin devices...unless you are on custom ROM.
so it is about kirin , if is it had SnapD, the feature will work , that is one of the feature what i am looking on device, redmi note 4 has it. I hope they will make it in update. Honor 5x has, so i don ´t check h6x spec for it... thats very bad. I am missing this, if is lay on table, it is best for it.
Hello :fingers-crossed:
I have set up my face unlock but when my screen is off the only way I can get back into my phone is by using the fingerprint method, What am I doing wrong?
It doesn't work like Huawei or Honor mobiles.
You've got to either double tap the screen or press the power button to initiate the process.
thanks for the info, i think the fingerprint option will be quicker then
It's good here...
But does not beat the auto faceunlock of my Honor view 10.
I take that phone out of my shirt pocket and without pressing anything, it's unlocked before I even look at it.

I came from one plus 6T and I think that best way to deal with no LED notifications was app called Plus Beat. It activate stock ambient display according to predefined time interval. Sadly it's no working on 7 Pro anymore. Anyone is aware of good alternative for that kind of app?
Hello
I also come from the 6T and I have installed it in my 7 Pro.
I think it worked better in the 6T, but I do not notice that goes wrong in the 7 Pro.
The only thing that ever worked for me is the option of DND profiles. When I set it up and activate it, I get into the app and the Option Enable Plus Beat It's off.
Anyone know how to fix it?
There's another app. It's called "Always on Edge". Works fine for me.

Tried Pixel Pulse today and doesn't seem to work either. Notifications come in, however they do not reappear again(pulse). Tried Always on Edge and Pulse Beat neither of them pulse, which is weird because Beat Pulse worked perfect for a day. Battery optimization was off for these apps.

It's really strange, some reports pixel puls working other they it's not working.. So far pixel pulse working flawlessly for me. It repeat pulse until notification it's dismissed. I try some edge but didn't like it. I prefer apps that use native ambient display rather than screen overlay..like aos edge or any led screen app

This may be a very dumb question but is there a way to dismiss notifications from the actual notification screen (I believe this is the ambient screen)?
The only way I've been able to dismiss notifications is to go into the lock screen and swipe away the notification.

I'm using Pixel Pulse (free version) on the OP7P Global US variant GM1917 OOS 9.5.4 rooted. I do have notifications to repeat every 20 seconds.
3 apdates and still the double tab to wake don't work as aspected. If you don't want to gumball by a Samsung!!!
I've noticed that too, and honestly didn't give much thought. I thing I've noticed lately, is the camera auto focus. The app will almost crash when I move around. It'll lag trying to refocus. Sadly the phone isn't living up to the high standards that OP has been pushing.

Really? Oh boy, you'll be in for a surprise then.
Ask oneplus 5/5T/6/6T owners how they feel about it.
Still, to this day, it fails once per day or so. Not sure how bad is it on OP7, but still fails on my OP6 to this day.

I think double tab doesn't work as reliable as previous update.
I'll vouch for this too. The double tap to wake just doesn't work reliably. For that matter neither do the gestures. Disappointing because that's one of my favorite features of OOS.
