Hi everyone, i just bought my first mate 20 x phone and its been great so far, ive come from the samsung s8+, but im just having a few problems and hoping you guys have some ideas..
1. Can we change the Lock screen settings? ive noticed theres a camera shortcut on the bottom right, also ive tried a different theme which removes the shortcut but now leaves multiple shortcuts on the bottom when i swipe up, it has the calculator, stopwatch etc.. i could remove all this on the s8 lock screen settings.
2.The other problem ive been having is the android setup keeps popping up asking me to connect to my wifi, which it already is and will not let me press next, will it be okay if i just disable this?
thanks for your help guys
EDIT---------
ok so ive done some research and it looks like we cant mess around with the lock screen shortcuts etc, hopefully in a new update we can, as for the android setup problem, i just disabled this and the phone has been working fine so far.

hey everyone. I have a question. I searched but didn't see what I was looking for in this phone forum. I got the N2 on Friday, came from the epic touch. I was running Easy Profiles on the e4gt and wanted to use it again on the N2. Well, I am still am for sound changes. But one of the main reasons I use EP is to disable the lock screen when I was at home and enable it when I was not at home. I know jellybean broke EPs capability for this. So... my question is... what else can I use? I don't mind using a widget but the auto changer with EP was awesome! (and once they fix it, I'll go back to that primarily I'm sure) I've tried no lock and no lock screen. neither disable the lock screen. I've tried all 3 apps with my systems settings as slide to lock, lock with pattern and no lock. it's just not doing what I want it to and I'm at a loss. if I set the system lock to any type of lock, no lock and no screen lock wouldn't keep it unlocked when it was engaged. if I changed the system settings to no lock, the 2 apps wouldn't lock it. easy profiles has 2 different options with the lock screen and I've tried multiple variations with that too. does anyone have any suggestions? ideas? apps to try? I am currently downloading a few ROMs to try out but I'm thinking it's a jellybean issue and not a stock rom issue.
I was in the exact same boat and loved EasyProfiles.
I started using Tasker yesterday and checked out: http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index
I still at noob at it but managed to disable the pattern keyguard.
Now I think it is a JB limitation but Tasker ability to disable kerguard stops once you chose something in the Notification bar.
Check it out, what they say about it true. Tasker is awesome and I'm only now learning how great it is- like automating talking SMS when in the car. EasyProfiles couldn't do that.
thanks. I'll look into it again. I downloaded it last night but uninstalled because I didn't see what I was looking for and didn't have the brain capacity to figure it out!
Try this for starters:
Profile "Unlock wifi" - State -> Net -> wifi connected
Task "Unlock"- Display -> Keyguard -> off
I used that to work yesterday and will play/learn more today.
Like I said though, accessing the notifications makes it lock again so I toggle the wifi off/on to make Tasker disable keyguard again.
I installed secure settings from the market, disabled everything but pattern lock in it. then went back to easy profiles, set locale app as secure settings and so far it's working.
I couldn't find a similar thread which would help me so I'm posting here. Recently my one x seems to have two lock screens. First one is like you have to slide left to 'camera' and right to unlock, then another one appears which I already know from when my android updated to sense5 where you have to grab the wee padlock icon and slide it upwards. I looked everywhere but couldn't find it in settings. I decided to go for 'no lock screen' option but then sometimes that weird first lockscreen appears and sometimes not. I don't want to risk pocket dial and stuff but having to unlock the screen twice is a bit of a nuisance. I tried custom apps from play store but that first lock screen is still there sometimes and sometimes not. HELP!!!
2 days ago I started getting a strange lock screen on my S3. I noticed it when my alarm went off in the morning. There was a plain black and blue lock screen. When I swiped past it, my alarm showed up. When I dismissed my alarm, my normal lock screen showed up (complete with the normal unlock pattern dots.)
This new lock screen doesn't show up all the time. Maybe 2-3 times per day. I think, but I'm not sure, that it's being triggered by the phone going to sleep. Turning the screen off and on only triggers the normal lock screen. The new lock screen never overrides the default lock screen - it's just over top of it. Also, it looks like if I disable lock screens altogether in settings, the new lock screen goes away.
I've uninstalled all launchers except Lightning Launcher and TouchWiz. LL's lock screen is a separate app that I do not have. I've uninstalled all lock screen replacements that I know of (I only had Widget Locker). I checked the list of recently updated apps to try to figure out if it's a new "feature", but nothing. I've checked the list of running apps, along with apps that automatically start up on load and I don't see anything strange.
Does anyone know of a way I can determine how to figure out what this is? I'd like to get rid of it.
I'm running StockMod ROM 4.3 (rooted). A screenshot is attached.
Thanks.
Hi!
Does StockMod ROM come with the Active Display feature? Because what you are seeing might some kind of Active Display...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450697
I didn't see Active Display, but I did notice that Dynamic Notifications was enabled. Not sure when or why. I turned it off and I haven't seen anything pop up since. Hopefully that was it.
Thanks for your help!
I have no idea what I would have done to cause this but I seem to have lost the option to customize my lock screen shortcuts from the lock screen settings menu. I know I had the option even earlier today but now it's just gone. I've been running SkyDragon 0.0.5 for weeks now and I can't think of anything else I would've changed that would have made the option disappear. I should probably also mention that I'm running Xposed with the lock screen disabler module but I've also been running that for quite a while. I can still see the lock screen shortcuts that I had previously set up, but now I can't change them.
Anyone have any ideas?
Anyone?
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.
