Is there an app to lock and wake up a device? - Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My phone went for a swim a couple of days back, everything is fine now except the power btn which has to be pressed really hard to make it work.
Is there an app which I can pair with the smart key to work as a power button?
I need it to Just lock and unlock the phone?
Thanks....

Unlock using fingerprint? Lock using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smart.swkey.nonroot

Thanks but I don't want to us fingerprint unlocking.
That's the main reason I want to associate an app with the smart key.

Yep. A good choice but its kinda unpredictable for me. Sometimes have to do it twice or even thrice to get a response if I use the thumb which I mostly use
Finger taping is much better but gotta use two hands then:crying:

[Feature request] Pie usability enhancements

In 4.3 pie implementation user needs swipe precise from the center of one side to activate pie. On large screen this hamer usability because user needs to make thumb gimnastick to do that. Please add possibility to just swype from side to activate pie. It's much faster that way.
+1 And Also having the option to activate the controls in the bottom or in the sides at the same time.

this makes sense in landscape mode on phones too. trying to find the middle is kind of difficult.

well it is that or, long press on the switch apps button pops up a menu, a vertical list of rows of the most recently used apps, and you just swipe up or down to select the one that you want to multitask too. That would be faster.
thanks for implementing this

[Q] how to remove "swipe to unlock" from lockscreen

As topic title. Rooted stock .438
Do you want to remove or disable it? For disabling you have an option under settings/Security.
He wants to remove the string. The "swipe to unlock" sentence. I'd like to do that too.

Yes. Disable the string.
I think there are a few Xposed modules that allows for this. For example, you can try this one:

Disable vibration

Is there any way to keep the notifications showing up on gear fit but not have it vibrate ?
Following this thread as I'm searching for the same answer. So far I read you can go into "do not disturb mode"...not sure what that is..going through the motions now

Just found out how to do it...just hold the home button and a settings menu comes up. you can turn off vibration from there!

Notification Badges Not showing Up on Galaxy S9+

Not sure what is going on here. I'm not getting notification badges on app icons. I've set the apps (Facebook and Words with Friends) to show notifications. I've made sure that the apps aren't being restricted by the battery optimization and set them so that they are not allowed to sleep and still nothing. Not sure what to do at this point. I've gone into Settings/Apps/Special Access/Optimize Battery Usage/All Apps and turned OFF the battery optimization. Nothing seems to work.. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I am also in this boat. No app badges for any app other than stock messages. Whatsapp, Facebook, Instagram, Messenger.
It's situations like this that sometimes make me wish that I were using IOS instead of the Android/Samsung with its numerous levels of complexity. BAH!

What kinds of things have you tried? Do you think that it is a bug or some weird setting somewhere which is preventing apps from pushing notifications?

I'm just a casual user and don't really understand half of what you just said. But I'm guessing that if you can't figure it out that is must be some sort of a bug, not user error on my part. Hopefully someone will respond and help us both out.

See the pictures attached I seem to of found a fix for mine.
Click the app icon badges under the notification settings. Double check it all looks like my photos if it does. Then turn the sliders off at the bottom then wait a few seconds turn the main slider off at the top. Leave all off, restart the phone then turn them all back on in reverse order.
Is android Oreo new notification system

When you say "turn off the sliders at the bottom" do you mean each individual app slider? Then turn all off on the top "master" switch and then restart?

Yes turn them off individually wait a few seconds between each. Wait another few seconds then turn off the master switch. Restart the phone and turn them all back on starting with the master switch etc.

Didn't work for me. Tried a second time and restarted the phone again after flipping the switches back on and that didn't work either.

Maybe the smart switch has carried over a bug from the settings back up. The only thing I can suggest is back your phone up to smart switch on a PC try starting like you had no back up. If that works just transfer across the important things you need and can't download and don't transfer the settings.
