[FIX] multitouch issues with 3rd party lockscreen? - HTC Amaze 4G

as some of you are aware, using a 3rd party lockscreen will cause multitouch issues i.e. laggy keyboard, trouble with games. i dont care for the stock lockscreen and i stopped using other lockscreens because of the multitiouch issues. i ran across a possible fix for this and so far it is working ok. i can only confirm this will work with widgetlocker as its the only one ive tested (milocker doesnt have the option)
download widgetlocker
go to settings>advanced and enable 'retain system keyguard'
so far ive been using widgetlocker without any issues. try it yourself and report back if it works for you as well

Will report back with findings

so far so good

Third party launchers causing touchscreen problems in games?

I am on my second rezound, and have noticed that some 3rd party launchers, and lockscreens can cause dropped touches while playing video games. I am completely stock at the moment. I am making this post to validate my findings,and as a way for others to find it. I know some others have come to the same conclusion,and wanted to get feedback from the rest of the community.

I always used Go Launcher Ex before I was rooted and never had any problems. Since being rooted with a new kernel, I still haven't had troubles. I have heard things about ADW causing issues with certain ROMs. Not sure if you're still stock or what. Can't comment about the Lockscreens since I always use the stock HTC.
I only had am issue with the lockscreen causing issues. Other launchers work fine.

Adw ex launcher widget problems.

I'm having problems with scrolling widgets recognising touch no matter what rom I'm using and this only seems to happen with adw, other launchers don't seem to have this issue. I use the Gmail widget all the time and this is something that I really would love to find an answer for. I've tried turning off gestures in the settings but the issue remains :-( .
Are any of you experiencing similar issues with adw? I'd really like to know if this is a known issue, or something tailored to my myself. Google didn't help much..........

more info. What ROM are you on? Did it just start, or did something precede the problem? Do you have the latest version of ADW from the market? Details!
Also, have you gone into the ADW settings and restored? You'll have to rebuild everything, but that might solve the problem.
I abandoned the ADW launcher after several FCs on start up running the GTask 13.1! (all versions before 10.1 worked fine)
I'm using the Go Launcher EX, until discover the solution for those FCs.
Hi,
Thank you for your reply. I am using an ics rom at the moment but the same issue remained with any other rom I have run so far. The launcher is the latest and an up to date version the restore function I have tried before and again just now but the issue remains . I'm stumped.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

any news on this? I've got the same problem on my motorola xoom :/ While using the ADW launcher, WIZZ widgets sometimes scroll, sometimes not. Even if they do scroll down it's quite stuttering and slow (compared to how it works on the "stock launcher"). This is quite annoying and tbh a reason for me to switch back to stock :/

Hi
WIZZ shouldn't be used with ADW launcher, you should use : "Colorize widget"
it's from the same creator, but it is the version for people using ADW (or Go) launcher. The widgets are working very well with this one

[Q] Recommended 3rd party launcher for a 4.3 custom rom..

Forgive my "noob-ness" but as the title says, I would be grateful if I could get some users experiences on which launchers have worked well for them (especially for 4.3 custom roms). The reason why im asking is because I've used a couple of 3rd party launchers, however, I've experienced a few issues like homescreen icons disappearing from time to time, and random freezes, etc. Now, maybe this is normal with 3rd party launchers? Is it ?? Would appreciate some feedback .. Thanks.

nova launcher is the best imo. lots of people like it , it's super stable, you can back up your settings too.

+1 ... I agree, I recently tried Nova, and its more stable than the others i tried ... but i did experience an issue where i ended up back on TW after i used an app. I was watching some videos on YouTube, and when I was done, i noticed i was back on TW. So i had to click on the nova app to get me back on the launcher (even though Nova is my default launcher). I'll be honest, its only happened once with nova. But with the other launchers, it happened a lot. Is this normal? Have you had this issue from time to time?

EMUI9 new gesture + alternate launcher

Hi,
i tried the new gesture navigation on EMUI9. It works but the return to home gesture go briefly to task manager before showing home.
did someone manage to avoid this? I'm on stock phone, no root or whatever..
Tried action launcher or nova without success

Yeah i avoided that by not using gesture. Its really a joke how it works

Fluid NG is the answer.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid&hl=en
works great with any launcher (I tested with Nova and Action Launcher 5), and its free.
Pro version is not expensive if you need to tweak the setting.

Yeah there are load of 3rd party apps out there but i would preffer to not rely on those bit instead huawei to put their ****s together and not release official rom with the same exactly bugs they had on beta. This specific bug i reported it as a beta tester.

Thank god its android. We can just switch to other solution, or stay with the default one. Having options is good.
Navigation gestures app from xda is pretty nice.
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.nobar
Works after adb commands pretty well. But yeah Huawei should just fix their ****. Sometimes I don't know why they beta test their firmware. It seems that they don't fix any things from the beta firmware.

New Update: 9.0.0.183 (Nova Launcher Compatibility fixed?)

I have disabled the stock launcher since I installed Nova Launcher for my Huawei Mate 20 Pro. After updating to 9.0.0.183, the animations seem to be working fine already.
Anybody else have the same experience?

I just disabled the Launcher. It's working fine now after updating to 9.0.0.183
The only thing that's annoying me now is the front facing camera's stubborn beauty mode that cannot be disabled.
I have loaded the update 182 (yes 182 not 183) from funky Huawei about two weeks ago and that has fixed the one minor issue I've had with Nova Launcher.
It has been working perfectly fine since then.
My only issue now is that the Nova Launcher support has sent me an angry reply to my request because I own a Mate 20 Pro.
Those guys are pretty angry because of the accusations of Huawei intentionally sabotaging them.

xan you instal pixel launcher or lawnchair for me and use the navbar?

I use nova launcher.
you dont understand... can you install newest pixel or lawnchair launcher and set it as default, and give all permissions (and since you disabled the launcher you have to use the navkeys right? ) then reboot.... and look if the new pie gesture ui kicks in.... the recent overview and pill navbar.
get the. apk from xda or apk mirror
because the launcher is responsible for the navigation gestures in android P.
realy hate the emui gestures and wish to use stock android P gestures
this will take max 15min. of your time but help me forever.
thanks in advance

I hope this is the case for me. I stopped using Nova because the gesture is just so stuttery and buggy when using it.
You have an unread badge count for email, whatsapp etc using nova and tesla? Mine doesn't tho I have enabled all in the settings

Really? So when swiping up to go to home screen it doesn't show the recent apps for a split second and then go home? It's definitely a bug others have experienced when using gesture nav on emui.

No it works like stock launcher
The gesture navigation works ALMOST perfectly with nova launcher. This is the best I could ask for. But just let me point out some scenarios that it stutters a little bit.
1. The animation when close an app is gone. You can't see the app fading into its position on the home page.
2. The gestures are a bit more sensitive on nova than stock EMUI. For example, swipe up and hold for recent apps. On EMUI launcher, it is about 0.5 seconds. However on nova, it is more like 0.3. Thus I often hold for too long and end up on recent apps instead of home page.
3. Under some special circumstances, the background picture for recent apps screen is the previous app you used. It looks extremely weird. I didn't manage to get a SS of it. Will upload once it happens again.
Having said all of that. I feel this 183 update improved the gestures navigation by a huge leap! Just need time to get use to it.

This was what I was talking about. The recent apps screen bug. But it is not a deal breaker to stop using nova.

I had to go home again to get it to start working. I had to manually perform the gesture to go to home (I have gesture UI rather than the traditional 3 button interface).
