I have a problem .. some times when i switch on the screen everything changes to very small even the navigation bar icons .. its like the resolution changes and everything will be small .. ill.post a screenshot when it happens again .. a workaround i go to screen resolution and change from hd to fhd then back to hd and the wallpaper , icons, settings and text comes back to normal size.
Help is appreciated

Write to the app developers to optimize it for Huawei's EMUI.

it is launcher problem my friend, send your question to their support. maybe not fully compatible with oreo. if u don't have this problem in default emui launcher so nothing we can do for u
thank you guys
I use only default launcher and I have the same problem.
I tried factory reset and I installed all apps independently.
No backups, but without change. ?
I was afraid I'm the only one. ?
We have to wait for the update ?
Maybe you turned smart resolution ON?
Turn smart resolution off. It will be OK.
think you have one-hand-mode active

Well quite opposite in here.I used to have the resolution on HD+ for the power saving reason and the problem occurred once a day.
So i have turned that smart resolution ON and from that moment all is ok.
Thanks for your advice even it works the other way around.
Go to Settings -> Smart assistance -> One-hand UI
Now, here you will see two options, Mini screen view and Shifting keyboard.
Tap on Mini screen view and turn on the slider

Set the wallpaper as you would normally and choose lock screen only when applying.
Moving from a Nexus 6 to the Moto Z Droid which is running Nougat. The display shows only 4 icons/row which seems a waste of real estate versus the 5 that Nexus 6 has. I also checked out a Nexus 5X which has a similar resolution and that has 5 icons also.
Is there a way to get 5 icons/row with the GN launcher and/or without root? I did play around with DPI and font size but that didn't allow me add more icons/row.
Thanks
You'll need to use a different launcher. GN doesn't support what you're looking for.
I use Nova. Does everything! :good:
That is disappointing. I even tried the Pixel launcher and no joy. I like the GN launcher and I guess I will just have to put up with the icon limitation

You can do it with custom roms. I'm not sure if it's possible with stock but can give it a try.
Go-to settings > display > display size > small

What do you like so much about GN? In my opinion it is pretty limited in customisation.
Have you tried Nova Launcher? I bet Nova can do all that GN does and much much more... and it's light on resources as well
Yea same issue, you need to use a custom rom to fix this

I think I will just wait for an upgrade to the Z. I am on 7.0 and with Android O now in beta with some pretty cool features I hope Motorola/Verizon release an upgrade one day or I guess I will be flashing a custom ROM.
You can set the screen incons resolution under developer options.
After enabling developer options go to "drawing" section and change the value of the "Smallest width". I have setted it to 470dp and I get 5 icons per row in the menu.
I hope this would help you.

Thanks but that didn't work. I can get five icons in the app drawer but only 4 in the main screens. Tons of space between the icons though.
Hi all, this is my first post on here (ever) so go easy!
After owning 3x Mate 9's (MHA-L09 & L29) over the course of the last year, I decided to treat myself and have just received my shiny new Mocha Brown Mate 10 (ALP-L29), imported to the UK from Singapore.
I've noticed one or two "teething" issues however, most niggling being the size of the icons/home screen grid and notifications on the pull down menu, they're all huge!
I have view mode and text size set to "small" in display settings though it doesn't help.
I think, could be wrong, that EMUI 5.0 on the Mate 9 had a "smallest" setting?
Anyway, I was able to shrink the icons, widgets etc to a much smaller size.
Can anyone help with this or am I going to have to hope (and pray) for a software update that addresses this?
It's such a big, beautiful display and is a shame filling it with giant icons....
Any suggestions appreciated!
Thanks.
When both view mode is set to small on mate 9 and Mate 10, yes the mate 9 icons are slightly smaller.

I thought so, must be a coming fix for this?
Just feels like the fantastic screen real estate is wasted.
There should really be a 6x6 grid option built in to stock Emui don't you think?
I know Nova can provide it, but really want to stay stock for now with phone being so new!
(I may even be first in UK with it, not sure!)

2nd then! What's your impressions so far?
Especially relating to launcher scale?
I've also noticed another issue where I can't delete Gmail emails from the notification shade.

Someone said Huawei Widgets and Nova launcher together has some problems. Maybe try another weather widget from play store?

With the last nova update, no crash anymore dude
I tried to persist with the stock launcher but it got the best of me. It just lacks so many features.
I've used alot of launchers but obviously Nova is a good starting point ( it didn't crash for me) and also evie is another one. My every day launcher is action launcher and it is excellent on the mate 10. Launchers come down to personal preference but in my opinion there are plenty out there that are better than the stock one.
Also pixel 2 launcher apk on this great forums is very good and smooth

I got the crash when I add the Huawei weather widget. I guess it is not compatible with Nova Launcher.

Same here. BLA-029 .119(C636). Latest version of Nova launcher. Can anyone confirm if they are NOT having this problem? Thanks all.
Same problem here. Seems like view mode doesn't affect the size of the icons on the home screen and the size of the notification toggles. I've had the phone for 2 hours and its been bugging me ever since. I hope someone can fix this. I really hate my icons looking so big.
For smaller icons in stock launcher you have to find an icon pack with smaller icons size. I did it in app Huawei Themes https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.deishelon.lab.thememanager You can install new theme from this app which is called "card", and then apply icons from this theme in the native Huawei's theme app. For me icons from card theme look nicely and are smaller than original ones. Give it a try.
Currently using Pixel Launcher and icons are smaller now but the notification toggles are still huge.
When choosing one of the launchers mentioned in this thread, can you still use the navigation dock?
It has been 6-7 days with my new Realme 3 pro and I feel I made a terrible mistake despite all the warnings and reviews about color os. Very bad user experience and lots of bugs and issues.
I did lot of debloating via ADB and decided to use Nova launcher as I have the paid version which I am using for years now on different devices.
Problem with stock launcher of realme / color os - There is no option of "Double tap to lock screen". This is very basic. It has option for Double tap to wake but not double tap to lock. This is must have feature for me.
I can achieve this using Nova Launcher which is much better but there are other issues as color os doesn't properly supports Nova Launcher it seems. If I use clone apps, it places the 2nd icon on home screen and if you are using nova or third party launcher cloned app icons doesn't appear on home screen
Also, the color os wallpapers cannot be selected from nova launcher settings.
Also, the clock and weather widget of color os doesn't works with Nova launcher.
Any suggestion plz. Need to use clone apps also and double tap to lock screen also. Would prefer to use Nova but can use stock launcher also in the worst case. Plz help.
Also, I don't see the custom rom development is very good here like in that of xiaomi devices. Still there are bugs and no fully stable / functional roms yet. I am really worried. I am very knitpicky and can't bear this ****ty color os for 2-3 years.
coloros 7 will be launched on 20th november..
plus dev have successfully compiled a custom kernel for realme 3 pro although it is in beta mode.. wait for some time.. development will pick up pace

Zero expectations from coloros 7. It will be even more pathetic and introduce more bugs.
Very immature and poor quality software team of Oppo / Realme.

dont be so judgemental.. atleast let them launch first
Yeah guys, they are trying man. Also, they do not have a huge community support like MI/ Redmi does!!! Enthusiast who like to use custom rom's and flush mods purchase only the redmi phones given the volume of community support in XDA & Mi forums!!!
Funtouch OS is literally the most limited, boring and bloated skins over android 11 ever in IQOO 7 Legend.
You can't even change WiFi, Bluetooth connection in drop-down quick settings section without going into settings by long-pressing.
There's no lockscreen media control appearing on my IQOO 7 Legend either.
Oh yeah, there's that green tint issue too.
Sounds getting cutoff with 4D vibration on in Asphalt 9.
It's just a cheap experience all together. I bought IQOO specially with the hope of experiencing the exquisite looking Origin OS. But what I got is some cheap Indian trash.

True. IQOO 3 had much better implementation. Also, no way to disable always on Charging display either!

Any way to disable always on display during charging? I hate using my OLED display unnecessarily during charging while there was only a simple setting on IQOO 3 to enable or disable it.
Seems like no one is discussing IQOO 7 Legend 5G anymore as this forum seems dead for months now. What's going on folks?

You cannot. I tried everything. Dark mode just makes the menus and settings dark, nothing else. We will have to wait for the next update. I am getting more frequent crashes and reboots too.

I am not having any crashes/reboots as of now. It's been just one day though.
