Blackview Tab 8 - how to get rid of these annoyances - General Questions and Answers

How can I get rid of these three annoyances on the otherwise great Blackview Tab 8?
1) "Smart cover" functionality - I'd like to disable the automatic turn-on when you open (or "accidentally open") the cover. I wasn't able to find anything in the settings. Any hack possible via adb or otherwise (on a non-rooted device)?
2) The silhouette of Google search box on the home screen (it just sits there, can't be (re)moved at all, despite the fact that I already disabled and uninstalled the bloat I don't need, such as Google, Assistant, etc.):

3) "Tips" on the top of Settings ("Customize your tablet" in this case):

How to get rid of "Couldn't add widget" on Recents in Lollipop

Hi All,
I have done a clean install of my phone by flashing the 23.1.A.0.690 FTF on my D6603 and disabled Google bloatware including the Google App which provides the Quicksearchbox.
While in Sony Home there's an option for disabling the search box I can't find any setting for the recents screen where now is written "Couldn't add widget." (since it is disabled) E.g. Nexus devices have a setting in the Display menu which seems to be removed by Sony.
Does anyone have an idea how to get rid of that error which takes up some part of the screen?
Thx!

Keyboard ignore Camera punch hole

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So I've set up all my Apps to ignore the Camera when in landscape mode and fill the screen all the way using GoodLock. The only thing I can't seem to set up that way is my keyboard, hence the white bar on the left. Has anyone found a way to have the keyboard stretch all the way across the screen?
I've also been experiencing this issue. And I don't recall it being like this before. Don't know what option I changed, if I even did. If anyone can help, that would be awesome!
Open developer settings (if you don't have developer setting, google how to open it). Find “simulate display cutout” (or something like that, I have different language on my phone) and choose “waterfall cutout”.

Question Missing feature in Google feed

Unlike in my older phone (Xiaomi 12 Pro) my Google feed is missing two features:
1. (Red) no search box on top
2. When clicking on 3 dots (blu) no options to like, dislike erc

Had this before and sorted out by going into my account (picture on the right hand upper corner), drop down menu from the top and selected "Use without an account". After that I went to the same menu again and selected my account, I think I had to login again but it fixed it for me...
Worked but after reboot problem comes back
Issue back by itself..

Question P11 Plus TB-J616X - annoying settings suggestions in system settings panel

How can I get rid of these two annoying settings suggestions? When I close it by the X button, it appears next time again. No, I don't want to add another email account nor use an experience.
When I deactivate the Settings Suggestions (or whatever it is called in English) system app, it goes away, but the settings search stops working as well.

I have full access, not a phone. and can do whatever is needed, how do I stop this behaviour or disable windowed apps altogether
This is for home entertainment and hooked up to a TV full time. Thank you!
