if stock keyboard, just try disable this gesture typing.
- if all setting properly checked but still got issues try reset keyboard by clear data & cache from setting> apps> keyboard.
- if still the same, re-root, install back any good ROM or custom kernel.
thats why we here, bcoz we dont want to use something c**** from stock!!

problem solved???

Yeah i did a factory reset and after that i also disabled gesture typing now i am using it for few days just to check it but today gesture typing got enabled by it self so i will test it for few days and then i will post the result but i think that it might have solved the problem..... But to be sure i will test it for few days...

OK let me know
Do you have Google keyboard v3?

Install swype.
Profit.
I WAS also having issues with lag on swype, but after disabling all the settings I don't use(like next word prediction, the aosp spell checker) and double space period, and then disabled auto spacing but then enable auto spacing again(for some reason my lag did not go away until I toggled this off/on again) things are running smooth.
You can try same with Google keyboard settings, and if you don't need aggressive spell check then disable that as well.
If it mainly lags while you are on the charger, it could also be due to the device getting warm and CPU hitting the thermal throttle temperature causing max freq of 700mhz to be used until CPU temp drops again.

The problem is like this and is not solved

I will tell you my exact problem...
It happens mostly when i am typing on xda website.. When typing everything is perfect but when i press backspace it deletes the letters of the first line even though i press only backspace it changes its position (reason unknown) and also when i am scrolling throughout the page sometimea it throws me to the top.. It also happens in messages and about that prs i also tested it and most of the time it is above 40 but it is not constantly over 40 so that maybe the reason....

Any good rom/kernel to fix my issue? Without battery drain of cyanogen if possible

Switched the rom to cm11 because it was not being solved so now it is ok
It was annoying and typing was very difficult with it
It is still present but I am ok with it since cm rom is the most bug free rom (atleast for me)

Color balance issues and a few others

I finally got my new OP3 but I've noticed some color shifting when tilting the phone. Is this normal? Also I need help with something else. I want to completely remove lockscreen wallpaper on oxygen OS, so that it shows my home screen wallpaper. I'm rooted and I've tried deleting the keyguard wallpaper files, but all it does is show me a black screen unlike on the OP2. Can someone help?

1) there is no colour shifting on my op3, do you have a tempered screen guard on your phone?
2) when on oxygen os launcher long press on empty area of your home screen and select the lock screen wallpaper from there. its annoying that everytime you have to switch to oneplus launcher to change lockscreen wallpaper.

Isn't it possible to straight up get rid of it? I remember doing it on the OP2. By uninstalling the keyguard wallpaper file in system/users. But it keeps coming back after a black screen... And about the color balance, it only appears if I tilt my phone, which I read is a common problem with AMOLED screens all over. Can you confirm?

The only way is to set the same wallpapers for homescreen and lockscreen, there is no way to get rid of the wallpaper so you'll have to do it manually.

Annoying Ass Issues w/ Mate 20X.. Hope You Guys Can Help

I'm planning to buy this phone. But bugs keep me from buying it. I shouldnt spend $700 with stupid issues it shouldnt have. Hope you guys know of a fix....
1. Can I turn off auto brightness without rebooting? Why no toggle for it in status bar?
2. No dark notifications... why aren't notifications dark?
3. Why does the EMUI look so outdated?
4. Some features not working with 3rd party launchers like Nova. Is there a fix?
Dont mean to sound like an ass. But I shouldnt have to invest almost a grand for a phone with issues other phones dont have. Its ridiculous. If you guys have solutions to these issues please let me know. Hope to join the huawei family without them.
.

The fact thet you're here in XDA tells me that you play more with your phone than keeping it bone stock.
1 - Nope, auto brightness isnalways ON which I find stupid.
2 - There is Dark mode that turn the system UI black including Notification panel but not Notification Banner.
3 - I hate EMUI
4 - You can't change launcher on most recent update and there no fix to that. You can on older version like 9.1.0.120 but you need an unlocked bootloader and root.
So do your self a favor and stay away from any Huawei Device and go with Oneplus or Xiaomi

Have bought this phone (UK version) but yet to recieve it.
Not being able to change launcher, is that an issue just for the china version or the international version too on the latest update? That would be a biggie.
Also are there any issues with notifications not getting through all the time (an affliction a lot of Huawei phones suffer from). I had the Honor note 8 (Chinese) and this issue made it infuriating to use. A phone without notifications working properly is a dumb rather than a smart phone in my book.
Lastly one of the best bits about the Honor Note 8 was the ability to clear the notifications by double tapping on the finger print sensor. Do you have that on the Mate 20 X?

1. Can I turn off auto brightness without rebooting? Why no toggle for it in status bar?
Dunno, brightness never bothered me
2. No dark notifications... why aren't notifications dark?
who said that ? THEMES !! it comes will all sort of colors, just download huawei theme manager from playstore, it also including fonts as well
there is also a theme editor from the playstore where you mix and match and come up with your favorite theme all from your phone.
3. Why does the EMUI look so outdated?
because it is ! next month they are releasing a new version where they copied alot from OneUI, which is a good thing and they focused on smoothness and cleaner UI
4. Some features not working with 3rd party launchers like Nova. Is there a fix?
i am using nova, i think this is a chinese version issue not global

i have it for almost 4 months, and i got the note10+ with my renewal and trust me, i sold it without even opening the box. nothing comes close to Mate 20x as a complete package these days, its really fast, battery lasts forever, great screen, amazing camera, amazing charging speeds and one of a kind speakers.

What do you mean?? The notifications drop down is dark. But the notifications banner color is white! Is there any way to get this to turn dark? Does the Power Shade app work as a solution?

What I was saying is that one can turn auto bright off but it resets to auto of reboot, that's what I think.

Auto brightness turns on after every reboot but you can toggle it off. It stays off until you reboot the phone again.

PS: yeah, pretty sure not being able to change Launcher is only a Chinese problem. Cause I'm able to change it on my Mate 20 X in USA. I used to use Rootless launcher for quite a bit. But switched back because of the ? animations.
(Quite jealous of the OnePlus animations and gestures control. I miss them from my OP 5T)

You can toggle it ON/OFF whenever. It does not require a reboot. Adaptive brightness turns ON anytime the device is rebooted. It is not such a big deal do not worry about it if you are going to buy the device.

Touchscreen a bit "laggy"

tl;dr my phone is laggy only when I'm typing and sometimes reverse letters.
I've had a Xiaomi Mi 5 until recently, then I bought a Redmi Note 8 and I noticed the typing experience isn't the same. I mean, the screen is different and I didn't use MIUI on the Mi 5, but that's the only difference. I use the GBoard app with the exact same configurations as it were on the Mi 5.
The problem lies mostly when I type letters that are in the border of the screen, like "q", "p" or the button that change to the Symbols and Numbers. The typing feels a bit "laggy" and sometimes the q's and p's reverses the order like when I type "problem" it goes like "rpoblem", same with "queue" and it goes like "uqeue". When I type fast, the problem always occurs, when I type slowly it's more rare, but also occurs.
For the center of the screen, no other letters does this reversing thing, but I can feel that when I press the letters, there's a micro-delay between me pressing and the letter actually showing, something that I've never felt while using the Mi 5.
I'm tempted on rooting my phone and changing the OS, but I don't know if it'll solve the problem. Did anyone feel or notice something similar to my rpoblem?
(I've had to correct nearly all the words that came out reversed while writing this)

I had same problem as you when I was using global MIUI 10 (tianma panel). After unlocking bootloader and installing localized MIUI 11 ROM, I don't experience such problems anymore.

Used to use Swiftkey, but Microsoft.
I mainly use GBoard, its a good app. Most keyboard apps I see on the store are either paid, riddled with ads or something from Clean Master (data collection, privacy issues, and ads). Your best bet would be sideload a keyboard app from APKMirror such as the Xperia keyboard, remembered that to be quite good.

I don't think it's worth the effort since I'm using it like this for the past three weeks. I'm thinking about unlocking the bootloader next week when I'm home to install another ROM, do you have any suggestions? I don't quite like MIUI.
Also, is there a RN8 Telegram group?

There is Pixel Experience and POSP. Haven't tried either yet though. You can also wait for LineageOS.
Not sure about the telegram group, but there's been some stuff on XDA about telegram groups for a device though.

If you are still under warranty, by all means give it a try.
The replacement may not come with a different panel though, as some have been stating.

Hey man! Did the ROM change fix it?
I just received my RN8 today and immediately noticed the laggy borders. Even in the nav bar.

Technically it is,
I wont be spoon feeding everything to you on exactly what to do use google
But look in developer options, display settings else
use adb to pull your build.prop look for the tablet description/ feature set, edit on pc and set it to the one used for phones
then sideload it back to phone
reboot and enjoy

Yeah, that's already unchecked.

Have you tried going to the display settings, then screen layout, then selecting standard view. Split view makes your phone act as a tablet.
