Want to buy a vivo nex, couple of questions

How bad is the os? i understand i can only install a third party launcher in the global version. I saw this one in amazon https://www.amazon.com/Snapdragon-A...C6/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me= could anyone tell me if it's the global version or not? Also, could i use substratum on it?. Also, is it possible to modify the swipe from the bottom for settings ? is the screen as good as the note 8? (phone i currently own). How good are the cameras? does the assistant button trigger google assistant on the global version? thanks everyone

Hi. I am using vivo nex s global and first thing i installed was nova launcher. It's more comfortable for me. I can't compare display with note 8 but i heard it is very similar. AI button can be set to Google assistant. And to that cameras: selfie camera is good but not the best and main cameras are somwhere between iphone 7 and iphone 8. Especially in low light

I don't have any problems or complaints with Funtouch. I have yet to use other launchers, but if I did, I'd probably would have complaints as I would've conformed to the other launcher.
The picture below shows the bottom slide up menu using gestures. The red circle shows settings icon when you slide up to access this menu. You can't assign a gesture for settings, but you can switch gesture location from left to right.

Reading the questions about playstore, seller says it can be installed. Global version comes with it pre-installed. Also seller says nova can't be used. I think it's Chinese version and not global, I'd avoid.

Question Anyone have a fix for 3rd party launchers and gestures enabled?

My current device is a Redmi Note 5 and I've set it up to my liking using Nova Launcher under MIUI 11 and found out Android 11 as well as Android 10 don't work well with third party launchers.
Today I put in my request for bootloader unlock For the POCO X3 Pro, so I'll have to wait a week for anything interesting, I intend to keep dailying the Note 5 untill the timer runs out.
I've seen a few solutions, but nothing specific for our device.
Is anyone else in the same boat as me?

You can try the latest releases of Lawnchair launcher. They work well with Android 10. I'm using Lawnchair with Corvus OS (Android 10) and it is working fine. Now, as for Android 11, there is no solution yet. Lawnchair has developed a new beta release, but it is buggy... The only thing we can do is....wait!!!

I never gave lawnchair a chance, it came stock on a ROM I used, but installed nova over it immediately. Guess I'll give it a try soon. Sounds like it's one of the launchers with the most active development, so I may owe it to myself to take it out for a spin.

This helped me:
Go to Settings -> Notification Access and enable your 3rd party launcher (eg. Nova, Smart ...)
(Poco F2 Pro, Poco X3 Pro, stock Android 11)

so you have gestures working on nova latest beta? i have latest beta from their discord, i already gave every permissions and it just reverts back to navbar 3 buttons. or sometimes it bugs out and just gestures dont work

I had to use FGN and the bottom area is hit and miss, had to set the sides for second action when swiping up or down to home or recent apps.

That def doesn't work for me since I have the EU 12.0.4.0 ROM (RJUMIXM) flashed to my device and the menu options are laid out differently.

In any case, Nova does have notification access, even if the layout is not the same. It still doesn't work.

Question Hidden Apps

Hi,
I used to have Xiaomi.eu 12.5 installed on my Poco X3 Pro, and I was quiet fond of the hidden apps features. I had several apps hidden, and I did an update to Xiaomi.eu 13.
Since then, my hidden apps have disappeared, but are still installed as I can see them in the all apps list, but the hidden apps setting vanished.
Do you know any workaround, or any way to get this feature back?
Thanks in advance,
TI64CLi++

Question MIUI dialer and contacts for Mi 12

Hello; This is my fisrt experience with Mi 12 as I moved from Redmi 4 prime (what a jump ), but I noticed that xiaomi has integrated the Google phone dialer instead of MiUi dialer which used to be much better in my older phone.
After reading about that I knew that Xiaomi wants to agree with google about their ploicy not to use manufacturer dialer apps, but I heared that we can flash the dialer and the contacts like what we do with Gapps, is that trure? or the only solution would be the "Indonesian ROM"?
Thanks for help with that

Actually am not sure if China ROM would work fine with me, and what is the difference between it and Global ROM? and will this ROM in the thread you put is official Stock ROM? would it void the warranty? will I still get the official updates from Xiaomi? Thanks for your reply

These roms are custom roms, for your device based on chinese roms.
Two roms: Stable and Weekly, the latter receiving the latest features and updated once a week.
You will need to unlock the bootloader to install them, the warranty still works.
Normally the warranty stops if you install a custom rom.
In the event of a brick at the software level, you can always recover the phone and in the event of a brick at the hardware level with a custom rom, many have reported that Xiaomi had carried out the repairs without problems.
These roms have playstore certified with many modifications and options.(currently Miui 14 A13).
If you have a Chinese version, you cannot lock the bootloader on another version of rom, you will have to root the phone and use Magisk to have the play store certified.
