3rd party launchers acting weird, any fixes? - Huawei Mate 20 Questions & Answers

I noticed that every 3rd party launchers I tried (nova, rootless, hyperion), I will have 2 following issues with app switcher: 1. Random blue tint 2. Unable to switch to nearby app (I must select only the app at the center otherwise it will quit). Anyone found solutions?

Uninstall Huawei Launcher with adb. No issues here. Nova Launcher.

Yes and u Can too uninstal hiboard and hivoice and fully replace it with Google. U dont need root only Pc with Windows

I agree uninstalling Huawei launcher solved my slight issues. Does change the recent apps from left/right to up/down scrolling.

Please use search, this topic has been discussed before.
The icons for certain built in LG apps do not appear to show up in third party launchers. Some folks have found icon packs that you can install to work around the issue (this only works with certain launchers).

Got it, thanks..
Another question (I've just found out).. How can I disable google now launcher (to use again the LG launcher) without uninstalling it? If I go in the app menu the disable button, the one to delete the preference for that app, is grey..

Go into settings and clear the defaults for the Google now launcher in the app menu

That's not working as I said, the button is grey, I can't clear the defaults like I do with the other app!
Okay I misunderstood your first post on this. The LG launcher is called home. launch that and it should ask if you want it as the default.

Home button no longer works 5.1 factory

I flashed 5.1 and it's kind of OK (although a few app stopped errors happen) but the home button only works from the task switcher screen. It doesn't work from any app. Tried with Launcher, tried with Nova Launcher. Also, setting Home in Nova Launcher to an app doesn't launch that app. Something eats my home clicks. But what? I do not use a custom keyboard.

You should probably wipe everything and do a fresh install of the latest factory image. From the force closes, it sounds like you flashed all all positions besides data... Or you're having issues with the touchscreen drivers, which is a widely known issue on flo... Look around in the general section, there are about four threads with good information annoy the touchscreen if that's your issue. You could also collect a logcat of the touch fail, limit the output so it's easy to find the error and determine the source of your issue... Just some ideas.

Nova Launcher - Slow redrawing

For those using Nova. Have you also noticed slow redrawing of the home screen when from any app you go back to home screen using gesture?? It doesn't happen on Oneolus launcher
Yes. Same here. Annoying as hell. Ot happens on all launchers except the OnePlus launcher.
Any solutions?

I have noticed this, also, sometimes I end back on the OnePlus launcher and have to press the home button to get back into Nova Prime.
Gesture support was only recently made available to 3rd party launchers on Android 10. Hopefully it will get better with future updates when Android develops better support for 3rd party launchers.
The delay in loading Nova only happens when using the gesture navigation and using the gesture for home screen. Using the back gesture has no delay in loading the Launcher. Similarly using three button navigation has no delay.
I have reported it as a bug to OnePlus using the OnePlus community app and you should do the same.
Yeah, I had the same experience with Nova (or any other 3rd party launcher), so I made some workaround:
I downloaded Fluid Navigation Gestures app from the Playstore, it works without any problem and flaws...I am using three button nav panel in system settings, but Fluid Navigation Gestures app can hide that nav panel with simple ADB command and the result is you can control your phone with gestures with 3rd party launcher, but without any slow redrawings or any other bugs.
are there any solutions? i was hoping with the new update it would work...

At the moment the only one solution is Fluid Navigation Gestures.

Nova launcher keeps losing apps/widgets

I like the Nova launcher, particularly that is displays the apps drawer icon, displays the apps alphabetically and allows backups but every day or so I wake up to find the widgets and same few app icons have disappeared from the home screen making me need to reload or restart them.
Nova weren't particularly helpful in saying it's a known Xiaomi issue and contact them direct. The Xiaomi launcher doesn't allow backups and they seem to have removed the app drawer. Anyone know a launcher that Xiaomi can work with? Many thanks.
I've always used nova with miui roms and i never noticed any strange behavior. But i don't use widgets.

MIUI 12.5G Upgrade: Nova Launcher can't be used or installed

So after some time I decided to go with the 12.5 GLOBAL update which then gave me immediate problems like apps not rendering at all, general UI hanging, lagging or not responding, black wallpaper and lock screen and change of launcher.
So I re-enabled and re-installed most apps from Xiaomi adb/fastboot tool and most problems are now gone away.
But Nova Launcher which is the launcher I used mainly before update is nowhere to be seen. It was not to be seen in the home screen selection screen when hitting the home button, or via settings (while other launchers I installed were to be shown) and not even on the apps list. Trying to reinstall from Google Play show a message which says google play cannot install Nova Launcher. Trying to sideload APKs of several versions did not work either.
Anyone else experience this problem ? is it Xiaomi that decided to block this specific launcher ?
