So I have a habit of sliding the phone open and then pressing the hardware messaging key, and no matter what, it never seems to work. I press the button, and Ill see the today screen, but no messaging window. I have to slide it back closed and open again and everything sorts itself out.
I've tried looking, but haven't seen anyone complain about this particular problem. Anyone else fret about this? any solutions?
no one has this problem?

I find my X01HT in landscape mode when i wake him um with the "on" button, and have to wait for it to "think" a litle bit to obey me, while that, if I try to push any command he will go crazy and the image will stay locked in the last scene and will not get actualized... Kind of annoying thing, using black Satin... But i'll try schaps now to see if that goes away...

Im on WM5.
Vijay, I don't want to disable orientation permanently. Just sometimes, I want to start messaging, so in stanby mode itself, ill open and start it up. thats what confuses the 8525, thats all. I have to close the phone, and then slide it open again for it to regain consciousness!
Its no biggie, but i was just wondering if any1 else had a similar issue.
FINALLY... WHAT YOU HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR

I've come to notice that no one REALLY knew how to fully disable screen rotation on WM devices.
Some offered 3rd party apps to get the job done, some only knew how to disable automatic rotation, but when the device went into standby and woke up again - the screen rotated back. So that didnt really work.
So if you're as desperate as i was about screen rotation,
this is what you need to do:
1. Get dotfred's free taskmanager HERE, and run it.
2. Go to "Devices" tab, and look for "MIS1:" device (oem_misc.dll)
3. Long-Tap on it, and tap on "Stop"
4. Long-Tap on it again, and now choose "Set Manual"
5. Go to "Notifications" tab, and look for "Notifications\NamedEvents\VCPowerWakeupEvent"
6. Tap on it to make it selected
7. Disable it
(In dotfred's taskmanager, there should be a button for disabling it, but for some reason some devices couldn't see the button icons, although the buttons are still clickable. Under the notifications list there is an empty light-blue line - the buttons are there, eventough you can't see them.
The disable buttons is somewhere i the middle of that light-blue line, just tap the center until a message box popps up and asks if you'd like to disable this notification - Tap on yes.)All those steps are a one time deal - they stick even after an SR.
This has been tested on htc universal and works great.
The screen will keep its orientation even if you flip your screen, take out your built in keyboard, or turn the device off and back on.
The only time your screen will revert back to the original orientation is when you soft reset your device.
Hope this helps

Hi.
First of all, thanks to abhi922 for this great ROM. It is really light and cute.
I've read the thread in Development section, and I know how difficult it was to implement the lockscreens in this ROM, so it can be a little ironic that I want to disable them entirely, and even remove them to get a little more space. I can not find a way to disable them from the Simplicity options, it just let me choose between locks. It is possible to get rid of the them?
The other question is whether there is any way that the volume buttons do not wake up the screen. I use a lot the music player (PowerAmp), and I don't like having to turn off the screen every time I go up or low volume. I`ve read that PowerAmp don't do this, but in my case, it does.
Thanks in advance.

In that you will see Lock toggel just off it your lockscreen will get disabled .

Yes, I have activated the toggle in the status bar. But is there anything more ... permanent? Do not know if it's normal, but I have to use the lockscreen toggle every time my phone restarts. It seems to work much like the "no lock" app: does not disable the lockscreen, only prevents it activates.
So I wanted to know if it is possible to get rid of the lockscreen, or is that Android simply does not allow it, and now I have to spend the rest of my life (or more like... phone life) inactivated it every time I turn on the phone. I know it is not that bad, but well... yep.
Ok, I think I've made it (at least disable screen wake from volume keys, for lockscreen I'm still using "no lock" until I find another way to get rid of it)..
I found this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086526) and downloaded the file in the first post, but doesn't work for me. It seems that disabled lockscreen and avoid volume keys to wake up screen are not compatible. You have to choose one -_-
But reading the rest of the thread get me this idea and it works:
I've open /system/usr/keylayout with my root explorer and edited all the files that have VOLUME_UP and VOLUME_DOWN on them (in my case, bcm_headset.kl, qwerty.kl, sec_key.kl and sec_keypad.kl).
The thing is that you have to delete the word WAKE from each VOLUME_UP and VOLUME_DOWN that you find.
Mi lockscreen is desactivated (with "no lock" app) and my screen doesn't wake up anymore with the volume keys AT ALL
Thanks to DocRambone and aydc for the ideas. And to Hitesh2626 for your attention.
I really don't need to dismiss "on body location" yet one more time. Is there a way to turn off these things that appear unbidden at the top of Settings?
I'd like to stop these annoying messages too. Anyone know how to turn them off?

It took me awhile, but I think I've come across the solution.
First, you need to set up some kind of screen lock (not just swipe). I just used a "z" pattern. Next, tap on that annoying nag at the top of settings. This will lead you to some blah-blah. You need to enable this useless feature (which probably does not work on the NT anyway....) and then reboot.
Return to Settings>Security and look for "Smart Lock". Disable on-body-location. Now go back to your screen lock setting and return it to what it was (swipe, in my case). Reboot.
So essentially you need to enable the feature, reboot, disable the feature, reboot, and you're good to go.
Go to Settings and if the nag is still there use the three dots to banish it. It's gone for good :laugh:
That worked. Thanks a ton for the tip!
Hi,
I am still waiting for my Mate 10 to arrive, but since I am currently also am using Huawei phone (p10 lite to be exact) I had a question regarding lock screen notifications and screen time out..
Phone is setup to wake up screen when a notifications comes (screen locks and passwords set to NONE..so the screen is un-lockable with power button + swipe or received notification + swipe), but the problem is that phone locks up too fast for me to do a quick reply. I want to able to quick reply messages without opening the app.
Here's how it happens in action:
1. Notification/SMS is received and screen wakes up;
2.You expand the received notification and hit Reply underneath it;
3. Start typing your replying and baaaam, screen is timing out as you type it as long as you exceed ~15 seconds which is the approximate time during which screen is timing out automatically after waking up the screen no matter if you interact with it or start typing reply..
So annoying.. Basically its not the 15 second limit which is annoying, annoying and illogical seems the fact that screens goes into auto timeout althought you are interacting with screen (typing a reply)..
Does this happen also on Mate 10/EMUI 8.0 Android 8.0 the same way as it does on p10 lite EMUI 5.1, android 7.0?
Anyway to fix this? Extend time out time on lock screen?
This is not in any way related to general screen time out under Display/Sleep (sleep turns off when idle), so please don't waste space and suggest this as a solution .
Bump.
Can someone with mate 10 check this? Whether screen time outs in ~15seconds if you reply on a notification (sms, Whatsapp) without unlocking the phone and replying through quick reply option.
If I choose to quick reply from an SMS that has appeared on my lockscreen I have to unlock the phone before I can reply. If I now unlock my phone I am still presented with the quick reply SMS notification and if I reply the screen does not turn off while I am using it. Is that what you mean?
The notification wakes up the screen for around 11 seconds before the display turns off.
Update: Ah yes I read you mean with no lockscreen password. Yes in that case the phone still times out while you are replying and is under 15 seconds.
However why on earth would anyone not have a password on their lockscreen amazes me. What if you lost your phone or it was stolen? There is so much sensitive and personal information on our phones nowadays. Obviously it's none of my business what you do with your phone but with the fingerprint sensor being instantaneous to unlock the phone, having a password is a non issue now. ?

i like the unlock process to be as fast as possible and I have never lost a phone. Even if I would someone would gain access to my google stuff, but as soon I block the sim card + change the google password trespass is over , but thanks for checking it out for me.
I guess with mate 10 replying from lock screen will be different, meaning that I will have to use fingerprint either way.. if you receive a notification and the screen lights up you cant use quick reply unless you hit the fingerprint scanner right? But doesnt that (hitting fingerprint scanner) automatically bring you passed the lockscreen to “desktop”? Basically lockscreen notifications are only possible if you access the phone with power button right? But then again you wont be able to reply from lockscreen if you disable fingerprint as lock security alltogether..
I just love to quick reply from lockscreen, when I am busy with other stuff on my pc desk..notificiation just comes up and without actually picking up the phone i quick reply all my working day with phone lying on the desk knowimean!?!

That's the beauty of a front facing fingerprint scanner. You don't have to pick up the phone to unlock it.
So... the phone is on your desk. The screen wakes up because you get a message on your lockscreen. You swipe down on the message and tap reply. You immediately get a pop of your pin code screen. Instead of typing your pin, lightly tap your fingerprint sensor. Immediately the pin screen vanishes and the keyboard pops up with the text field automatically highlighted for you to start typing your message straight away. You don't even have to tap the text field to position the cursor, it's already there. When you are done either let the phone screen time out naturally or press the power button.
So you see the difference between having a password on your lockscreen (with fingerprint assigned) and not having a password, to be able to reply to lockscreen messages is wait for it........... ONE TAP. ? I mean that's the equivalent of adding an extra character to your message. You don't even have to press and hold the fingerprint scanner. It's so super fast you can barely touch it.
Make sure to assign your first fingers to fingerprints for easy unlocking on the desk. I have both my thumbs and both my first fingers assigned so I don't have to even think about using the correct hand depending on what I am doing.

And its not timing out as long as you type your message, right ? Because now phone is basically unlocked and it just stays in the area of expanded notifications since you have chosen to quick reply followed by fingerprint and so as soon as you are done and send the message it brings you to desktop. This is what I wanted to know. I tested this on p10 lite (pin+fingerprint) and its working, meaning screen no longer fades out during those default 15 seconds although you interact with the screen (type the reply with quick reply). Such security option (no fingerprint, no password/pin) as i use on p10 lite, because of fingerpirnt on the back, wont be used by me on mate 10, since mate 10 has fingerprint on the front (easy to reach), so I guess I wont have no longer the issue with screen timing out when I quick reply a message from notification panel without actually unlocking the phone.
So I have the Mate 10 Pro in front of me. For the life me I can't figure this one out.
On the lockscreen, I cannot expand my notification to access items like "quick reply" or whatever, based on app. Also can't pull down the notification shade.
What am I missing?
I have the same problem with quick reply on the lockscreen.
Tried to deactivate the fingerprint scanner, but still quick replying doesn't work.
Can somebody help?
I believe this is caused by EMUI.
Lockscreen notifications cannot be expanded
I've been using the mate 10 pro for the past 48 hours, coming from a Nexus 6, and this is extremely frustrating...

It works for me. Fingerprint disabled with power button/home button and swipe afterwards as an option to unlock the phone phone and take you to home screen ->
1. Notification arrives screen wakes up (Settings -> Apps & Notifications->Notifications & status bar ->Notifications turn on screen (enabled);
2. I pull the quick reply option swiping on notification from top to bottom -> Reply and Mark as Read appears while the notification slides up until quick toggles which come down next to notification windows;
3. Hit quick reply and start typing..
But due to this screen time out thing I wrote in this topic I am now
using the phone with no security at all, meaning hitting home or power button on a switched off phone will take you directly to home screen (Settings->Developer Options ->Screen lock (disabled) and that allows me to quick reply on received messages from the notification/quick toggle panel with no time limit (screen wont time out unless you do not interact with the screen).

I find it really annoying, dunno why EMUI wants to override Android implementation.
The dropdown button below the WiFi icon is also missing...
I’m also having the same issue with all app with Mate 10 Pro(EU model 6/128 version]
There’s no any kind option to interact with notifications at lock screen.
No expand option ,no reply option with various app like gmail,outlook,WhatsApp,Viber.
It’s really frustrating and unacceptable such childish work with Oreo and Huawei implementation.

Really frustrated and the basic reason i've sold my Mate 10 Pro.
I can deal with many other bug but not this one unfortunately.
I'don't have any patience when and if eventually Huawei would fix that fundamental and very useful Android feature.

Have you tried changing settings>Apps¬ifications>notification management> top right corner three dot menu > lock screen notifications
I enable quick tap and it works for a few minutes then does not. Change what it does or on and off works for a sec. What's up?
One hand mode works for a little bit then full screen on it's own.

As much as I don't like to bump a thread I'll make the exception here once.
1. Under system - gestures - quick tap, you can set a few different options for double tap on the back of the phone. I tried a couple of the options but decided to go with open notifications. I exit out and double tap and voila it works. Then I turn off the display or flip to shh or even put it in my pocket. When I take it out it no longer works. If I open settings and close it without doing anything it begins to work again. Wait a few minutes with screen off and it stops working. Am I missing something?
2. One handed mode. Either enable it for swipe down from bottom or a shortcut on the homescreen and it works. But as I'm reading it all of a sudden goes full screen again without even touching the phone.
So if anyone can replicate this behavior I'd be curious. I understand it's not a most used feature but it seems like a bug to me.

I have turned Quick Tap off because it doesn't work consistently for me. As you noted, it seems like it only works once you turn it on and/or you go back to the setting. Maybe this will be addressed in a future update?

I haven't used one handed mode much, so I can't weigh in on this one.
