Hi there I have recently brought the mate 20 x and so far the phone is great but there is an annoying feature that I can't seem to switch off and disable.
On the home screen when you swipe down this Hisearch Notice screen pop up and you can everywhere or cancel (I cancel as it asks for to much info). This makes having screen widgets impossible to which I use lots of as in the widget when you scroll down this notification still pops up
Does anyone know how to disable this feature would really be helpful
Thanks

Check this: I followed it and got google feed on right swipe without any problem. It was easy to follow.

Anybody knows if theres any app/widget that can quickly lock/off the screen just by one touch? I know you can always press the hard key on the right side but a quick tap on the screen would be beautiful. Theres quicklock for iphone hope theres one for SGS. Sorry if i missed anywhere. Thanks

try http://www.appbrain.com/app/app.lockenabler
That was superquick. Thanks. I saw it in the market but from the screenshot I thought it is doing something else. Although not locking immediately, but hey, its free and thanks again.
yeah.. it doesnt happen immediately.. its some android security restriction.. i was using that widget for sometime until it started acting up.. my screen used to turn off every 3 seconds even when i was using it normally.. but its working for some ppl just fine..

AutoRotate Switch (On/Off)
Screen off by konreu is really good but it is not free. I've tried lock enabler but it has an irritating habit of randomly setting my screen timeout to 3s.
I've had a good search and this problem's come up quite a few times but I haven't found a working solution. To answer/reject calls the Desire requires a vertical swipe. This obviously causes problems when removing from a pocket. First off an F- for HTC in Product Design. You should test your products before producing them!
Ok, so what is the best solution? I don't understand the technology well, so I'm not looking for any complicated solutions - ideally I'd like a tested app. Can anyone recommend one from experience? Otherwise can anyone recommend another solution, other than orientating or holding the phone a certain way? Everyone's obviously in the same boat here. Thanks.
It's a capacitive screen.
You shouldn't be sliding the screen even if the screen slides against your pants. Don't put your fingers on the screen when taking it out.
It's the simple answer you don't want, but you're probably not finding any other results because it is that simple.
Slide to answer is similar to slide to unlock however, so you might have more luck finding workarounds that change the unlock mechanism and see if they happen to mention ways to change slide to answer.

When I used Sense ROM (switch to Oxygen some time ago) I used WidgetLocker with the option to hide an incoming call activated. I basically added an vanilla style slider (slide to right to unlock) over HTC's slide down to answer.
Is not a perfect solution because
- the program it's not free
- you have to swipe twice (once to right, once down) to answer a call
But it saved me a lot of trouble with answering too soon or rejecting calls
You could also try Incoming Call Plus, I didn't had the chance.

I hope for mankind's sake that you are not a designer. Ps it occurs too when removing it from a slide-in case, where my fingers have no connection with the screen.
@dboy - is it simple a matter of installing an app and then you have 'slide right to unlock' and it won't install anything else on the phone?
Has anyone tested Incoming Call Plus?

You install the apk and you get an alternative lockscreen that, among others, features slide right to unlocked on incoming call.
It has many other options: place any widget on lock screen, unlock by trackpad, custom sliders, show/hide notification bar, allow/disallow interactions on lock screen
Like any other market purchase you have 15 minute to decide if you want to keep it or click refund.
I use Lookout to make sure no malware lands on my phone, and so far I had no problems, it only changes my lockscreen.

Not with mine. So you're saying HTC design gets an F- for not testing the product with your particular conductive (there's your problem) case in your particular situation? That seems rather blunt.
If you don't want to try out Incoming Call Plus/whatever you could replace your case with a nonconductive one.
You can solve it with WidgetLocker as someone already told you.
Before widgetlocker I also saw sometimes that the Sense slider moved when I took the phone out of my pocket or my slide-in case, but never as far as it would accept the call.
Now I am using WidgetLocker with Sense slider but it does not use this vertical swype to accept calls. Does anyone know if there is an option to activate it? I would like to use the vertical swype in combination with WidgetLocker.
Thanks

WidgetLocker -> Menu -> Settings -> Popups -> Hide Incoming Call.
If check it should hide the vertical slide beneath a horizontal one. Uncheked it should show only the vertical slide.

If I check it, WidgetLocker hides the call and I have to unlock first, then get the screen with the green and red button to accept/reject the call. If i leave it unchecked this screen will pop over the widgetlocker slider. But its both not what I want . I would like to have the slider (that you can slide down for accept and up for reject) poping up when someone is calling me. Is this possible in WidgetLocker or not? Cannot find any option to activate it, just got the normal slider but without this function.

i am searhcing for the same answer..an ideea anyone?
If you're having problems with pocket answering calls, try this app. I've asked the developer to add some sort of incoming call protection, which he did. It works great for me. Before answering/rejecting a call, you have to short-press a precise software button. There's no way it can be pressed while in the pocket.
Later Edit: The feature is also be present in the free version, so try that one first.
Hello people,
I'm a long time lurker and first time poster
I got my GN2 a few days ago and absolutely love it. The only problem is that when I use the multi-window function, I don't see the "fullscreen" and "switch screen" buttons anymore. They were there when I got it, but they somehow disappeared.
I checked all the settings, but I can't seem to find a way to re#enable them.
I feel kinda noobish.
Anyone had the same problem?
Thanks in advance,
TG

I'm guessing you are tapping on that bar in the middle to make that button appear?

Hi folks, holding down the back button seems to make the multiwindow tab reappear. ..hope that works for you
The switch and full screen options appear whenever you resize the windows. Try moving the bar in the middle up or down and they would appear.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
It didn't work before doing any of the above...
Now I just flashed a new firmware and everything is well
Thanks for the hints though
hold the back key will show/hide the multi- screen

Thank you very much for the hint.
i found out after your hint that holding the back key will show/hide the multi-screen option. so you can see the small blue button on the left side of your screen.
Damn. .. gone are the days people used to read the manual

Hey guys,
New S9 user here and having an issue with it. Clearly I'm not using the correct keywords, otherwise I'm sure it would have been an easy Google, but I can't, for the life of me, word it in any way properly. Been living with this issue since I got it and I hate it!
When I have my finger on the bottom part of the screen while it's in my pocket, when I take it out of my pocket, it'll do this short vibrate and then the screen comes on at the lock screen.
I've disabled screen always on.
I've disabled Samsung Pay while screen off and even at lock screen.
I'm not really sure what else to try.
Thanks!

It was doing it to me too, take my phone out of my pocket and the screen was already on... Then after I noticed it happening regularly I did some investigating too and discovered that setting, was never something I would use anyway so off it went
The above only partially fixed my issue. I was getting weird, random vibrate when I picked up my phone.
It's the most annoying feature ever! It is called SMART ALERT.
Search it. Disabled it. Profit.
Does anyone know how to stop this annoying notification "Help us to improve" after ever damn phone call?

Just swipe away. I keep getting these notifications as well when I use Assistant features like Hold for me, etc. I didn't find a way to prevent them.
You should be able to hold it and then the option to remove the notification should come up

See screenshots. Can't modify those notifications per Google lol
I literally came just came here to ask the same thing. They are annoying and can't be stopped because you disable any phone notifications.

It's BS imo.
I think this is it. Google assistant_General_Notifications_View All Phone Notification types_Feedback see screenshots.
Sorry about the out of order screenshots. Tried few times to sort it correctly but no dice.
Edit: Nope....that didn't work. BS
