How to enable freeform window mode? - Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers

Hi, I have Mi Max 32G (Hydrogen) with Resurrection Remix 5.8.3
I saw in this link: https://www.xda-developers.com/android-nougats-freeform-window-mode-what-it-is-and-how-developers-can-utilize-it/ that android 7 has capability of free size multi window without any third part app.
I have tried both methods ("adb shell settings put global enable_freeform_support 1" & Enable "Force activities to be resizable") separately and also together and also rebooted and clear recent apps each time.
New square button appeared in recent app next to close button but it opens apps in full screen mode.
Any body else have this issue or tested this feature successfully?
Is this issue of my costume ROM ?

I accidentally open the freeform wondow and again accidentally closed the app ?? and after that i cant find it again no more...??

Rarely work..

[Q] Can't seem to install .apk files?

I've been trying to install Game killer (the equivalent of CheatEngine on PC) except I ran into a very unusual problem. I've been using "Application installer". I would provide a link to the app, but I seems that the site won't let me.
The problem is that when I try to install the Game killer .apk through this installer app, I get to the usual permissions interface where I see what permissions the apk needs and all that. What's strange is that I cannot seem to click the Install button. I can interact with every other part of the screen, but I simply cannot hit the install button. Even pressing my finger onto the install button and then sliding towards the "Back" button will cause the back button to illuminate like it usually does, but I still cannot select the install button.
I'm running stock ROM, stock Kernels, stock everything. Device is rooted. I can install apps from google play just fine, but of course, Gamekiller is not on the play store.
I ran into a similar problem when I installed a screen rotation app. With the rotation app intstalled I could not install any other apps that were not from the app store. Once I removed the rotation app everything was fine. This a security feature in android to prevent apps from modifying your screen without you knowing it. Check if you have installed any app that could have modified your screen.
I had the same issue on mine, the app total screen control was the culprit. I couldn't get apps to install when TSC was active.
Are you using any type of screen filters? If you are, disable them and it should be able to work now.

Lineage OS Crashing

My Lineage OS on One plus one installed fine. Used the OnePlus Exclusive youtube video to install the same. After the install, many things are crashing - 1) When trying to open Google Keyboard 2) Power Button does not show the advanced menu to open boot loader or Recovery 3) Unable to make calls - crashes when I open the dialer etc.,
Can someone guide me how to find whats causing the issue ?

Problems installing Floating Apps on the new 2017 Nvidia Shield Pro TV?

When trying to install floating apps on my na shield pro tv 2017, it comes up with a screen called "Required permissions: floating apps needs two important permissions. Without them, it cannot work properly". The permissions are as follows:
1) grant access to storage. (This is easily done with no problems.)
2) enable drawing over other apps. (This is where the problem lies. When I click the enable now button a message box comes up saying, "Internal Android Error occurred. Configuration screen `Draw Over Other Apps` cannot be opened. Please open it manually and enable `Draw Over Other Apps` for Floating Apps. How can I do this on the new Nvidia Shield Pro
TV? Can someone help me with this problem?
I think you can enable this in developer settings - dont hold me to that though
Did you ever get this resolved? I'm having the same problem on my Shield 2017.
Me too ! having same issue. Installed older version seems to be working ok.

"Allow Nova Launcher to open ... ?" - annoying message

I use official Chinese rom on Redmi Note 5 (pro, 3/32GB) with Nova launcher. Unfortunately when I try to open an app that I've installed via Google Play or .apk file I get a permission request "Allow Nova Launcher to open ... ?".
Is there a simple way (except for flashing a new rom) to remove this? It happens once a reboot - if I say OK then I can use this particular app without further messages, but when I reboot the phone the issue comes back. So far gave Nova all permissions possible but no luck.
As any other apps also have the same annoying message
Each boot, Eaxh apps will have"allow *** to open" sorta message pop-up. Tried googling but found nothing. My phone China ROM too.
Anyone knows how to disable the security thingy?
Security app >manage apps>permission>Auto start
Enable Auto start for all apps
Et voila !
(It's not that Nova doesn't have permission to open these apps . These apps aren't allowed to be started by other apps , that's the problem)

Developer Options are not available for this user on Custom ROM

Hi Everyone,
My android phone details:
Xiaomi Redmi 1S
Custom ROM based on AICP
Android ver. 7.1.2
Possibly I'm on Guest Mode
My Concern
Few days back,
I realized that my Magisk not working
Then, gradually found out
Home button, Recent buttons stopped working
Notifications not popping up
Google Play store throwing user error for my Google Account
I suspect myself on Guest Mode
Settings->Users, not opening any user list
'Developer Options not available for this user' msg appears when I clicked on Settings->Developer Options
What Did I Do So Far:
My phone not booting into TWRP recovery mode when (Power Off+Volume Up) pressed all together as my phone always boots up into system(means to OS) & not into TWRP recovery.
I tried Nova Launcher using 'Activities' trick;
in Setup wizard, I was unable to find out
SetUpWizardTestActivity or SetUpWizardUpgradeActivity options which supposed to flash my phone
There's only one option called "Activating Mobile Service" which no use
What My Phone Can Do:
It can boot into Fastboot mode only by holding VolumeDown+PowerOff 2gether, then I can clearly see Xiaomi bunny logo appears along with Fastboot text appears.
What information Do I Need:
Since Developer Options not accessible on my phone, how can I connect my phone to pc & initiate ADB commands,
Is it possible? Bcz 'Usb debugging'can't be toggle over from Settings -> Developer Options
Can Anybody find out for custom ROM, how can Nova Launcher trick works i need file location for these files
SetUpWizardTestActivity, SetUpWizardUpgradeActivity SetUpWelcome something like this
I learned that on Samsung phones
These files can be easily mapped under SetupWizard
Try flashing MIUI via fastboot mode since you are able to boot into fastboot mode(yes I know USB debugging is off) still give it a try.
MIUI Fastboot ROMs are available on MIUI Forum.
If are able to use play store then try apps which allows to boot into recovery trough app.
There's an app "simple reboot for rooted users" by Fransisco Franco, this app works fine to boot into recovery mode.
Try and see if your device able to boot into recovery mode.
If play store not working then sideload apps from internet.
Or
Try flashing custom recovery again using twrp manager, flashify or other recovery flashing apps or just flash recovery via fastboot method and try booting into recovery mode.
Also make sure to other your choice ROM ready to flash in memory card or in pen drive (using otg cable.)
If I remember correctly nougat ROMs are quite heavy for Redmi 1S because whenever I used them I had lag and heat up when using mobile data.
Other than that they are good, I am currently using MIUI 9 on Redmi 1S since it's not my primary device.
Developer Options are not available for this user message appears when
I click on Settings->Developer Options
Device: Infinix Hot 5 lite
Android Version: 7.0
My main concern;
To recover deleted messages
What I have done so far;
Option 1.
I tried Nova Launcher using 'Activities' trick;
in Setup wizard, I was unable to find out
SetUpWizardTestActivity or SetUpWizardUpgradeActivity options which supposed to flash my phone
"I only have one "Setup Wizard" with one option under it a: ".activating cellular service". Selecting that doesn't seem to help"
Option 2.
Settings > About Phone > Build number > Tap it 7 times to become developer;
I have tried tapping 5, 7 or even 100 times and "you're now developer" message never shows up
