back to home screen animation is different? - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

using stock miui 10.2.2, I saw that in the full screen gestures option. the back to home screen animation is just as iOS or emui. the window will shrink and back to home screen to its icon position.
but my version is, it only show the animation as fade to home screen 。
is that because I set wrong ? or 10.2.2doesnt have this animation?

You're probably using third party home launcher such as nova launcher

That's how it works on ordinary Xiaomi phones but not the Pocophone that has its own launcher.

It worked on previous MIUI versions.

It's now back. Try latest beta and see.

Multitask ?

On my Android phone if I hold down the Home key I get the list of running apps on my phone and I can do multi tasking going app to app but on my G Tablet It does nothing happens when I hold down on the Home key ( I am using the stock rom)
, I read the manual word for word. How in the world do I get that on the GTablet.
How do you go from app to app on the gtablet ?
i just held my home key on the bezel and it brought up my running apps. I pressed on one of the apps and it took me right to it.
I think it just doesn't work on the on screen home key. Works with the bezel one.

I am assume the one on the "Bezel" is the one on the right , little icon of the house. below the magnifying glass icon on the touch buttons.
Mine does nothing. I know it works as I can go to the home screen is I tap it but holding down my finger on the house icon does absolujtley nothing. and as I mentioned no custom rom here. Stock. Strange.
I believe that is normal behavior for the stock ROM and dashboard launcher. Try using the standard launcher or try an alternative like Launcher Pro.
Using the standard launcher ( only use the dashboard once in a while) . Guess somethings up. Anyways thanks ya'll.

[Q] Turn off screen swiping?

I am using Themer on a MotoX and I would like to be able to turn off screen swiping. The theme I'm using (Dark Orange), uses 5 screens for it's theme. All of the screens can be accessed by buttons on the home screen and I would like to turn off swiping to the other screens and only be able to use the buttons. Is this possible? Thanks.

Pixel or google now launcher

Hello, has anyone tried any other launchers yet? I'd prefer one with the google now cards.
I assume the pixel or google launcher will work well??
Let me know whatyou have tried
I use the Google Now launcher. It's in the store. Been using it on my last few phones and love it.
Just installed it. Works great (so far). I copied my Nexus 5X over to set up the v30 and installing the launcher restored all my previous icons and screens that were hidden by the LG launcher.
i used the google now launcher but the icons are too big.
downloaded the Nova launcher with Google Companion - much better. smooth, fast, and looks great. plus it has the pixel style app drawer (scrolling up)

I am currently using Nova Launcher on my Moto X Pure, but I couldn't find "Google Companion" in the play store. Am I missing something?
I can't wait to buy my unlocked v30 on (hopefully) October 27!
http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/0...lly-gets-google-now-integration-apk-download/
or google "google companion nova"
I use Nova prime and it's amazing truly. But I've used it on all my last phones. The v30 clearly runs it the best but still truly liked go launcher years ago until they got way into money grabbing for features.
I'm using the modified compatible pixel launcher. I also have Nova prime but I'm liking this so far. Works great!! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.xda-developers.com/pixel-launcher-2-android-oreo-download/amp/

Has anyone figured out how to use a third party launcher like Nova with finger print to unlock and double tap to sleep?

Under Nova Settings. Gestures & Inputs, Double Tap - Choose Screen Lock. To set that gesture to work with the finger print scanner you have to set it as a preference. If you are not prompted when you set it up go Settings Advanced - Screen Lock Method, Choose 5 second option.
There is a slight delay if you double tap and want to turn the screen back on with the finger print scanner. (Pressing the power button twice will get the phone on and unlocked in this case if 5 seconds has not gone by.) But overall it's a workable compromise for me.
I am using the beta version of Nova in case this is a beta item...
Take Care!!

If you using nova prime you can set double tap gesture to lock screen.

but then fingerprint reader doesnt open it - i tried this, there was a work around but it had a delay on it

I use Action launcher. There is a google now plug in, but I just set up a gesture to swipe from left to right that opens it without the plug in.
Action launcher is packed with great features, like covers.

If the finger print scanner is not working on unlock from the AOD, then open Nova Settings. Go to Advanced, Screen Lock Method. Make sure you have Timeout selected. Then when you double tap the screen will go black for 5 seconds, then the AOD will come on and you should be able to unlock it with the scanner. If you ever want to unlock it quicker, press the power button once to turn off, then unlock with the scanner.. Usually for me the 5 seconds is not an issue.
If you can't live with the 5 second delay, then you will have to use another launcher. I don't know if Action Launcher or Lawnchair suffer the same issues.

No issues with finger print and action launcher. I don't see how a launcher would break it anyways...

On Nova, for some reason if you set it to actually lock the screen and not go blank for the 5 seconds, it will make you enter the actual password. I tried it and it wouldn't accept the fingerprint. Kinda weird.

That is odd, my 1 minute timeout works with no issues.
Action launcher did remove the double tap to turn the screen off unfortunately, they said google wanted it removed for some reason.

Issue: Launchers when active disables the Double Tap feature to turn off the screen.

Issue: Launchers when active disables the Double Tap feature to turn off the screen.
I like to use Nova Launcher for several reasons. However with the new LG V30, when Nova Launcher is active the Double Tap to turn off the screen fails to work. Double Tap to turn it back on works fine, as does the Double Tap from the Lock Screen works for both screen on and off.
Is this a known issue with launchers, or is it an LG V30 issue?
I've not had a phone with the feature for Double Tap screen off/on before, so I have no idea if it's to be expected and find nothing posted about this either.
Thank you for reading,

Well I'll be... that works even when Nova Launcher is active. Thank you!
Nova has its own homescreen shortcut for switching off the screen: Widgets -> Nova Action -> activate lockscreen. Of course Nova needs the permission for that.
OMG this is great,thanks for that!

A pretty substance free coment: What was your actual expectation?
Since that shortcut switched off the screen on every Android phone I had so far as long as Nova has the required administrator permissions set. So I see no need to avoid it.

There are two modes, one of which locks the phone, after which the fingerprint unlock doesn't work, you have to enter your code to unlock the phone. The other one doesn't lock the phone at all, it just turns off the screen, and the AOD doesn't show up untill the phone actually times out and locks on its own (it says after 5 seconds, but it's actually 30 seconds for me).
I would agree. The present implementation of Nova Launcher doesn't really follow function or form with the V30's own lockup function. It doesn't really lock the phone up. It just darkens the screen... not secure it.
What I really would like for Nova Launcher to do is to enable the user to use the whole screen to implement the knock code to lock the screen up. I think the reason we can use the notification area alone, is that this is part of the V30's own infrastructure layout, and not a Nova Launcher area.

Yes that always works with Nova.
And if you configure this option, it will also work anywhere on the screen.

Yes but as other posters have said, it doesn't actually lock the phone - it just turns the display black and only locks after the display time out (60seconds in my case). It doesn't turn off the touchscreen, it just blanks it.
If you are rooted nova can lock the screen just as lg launcher does.

Swipe to go directly to home screen without first seeing blank wallpaper

I just purchased this phone. One thing that I noticed that's really driving me crazy is while m in an app, when I swipe to go to the home screen, it doesn't take me directly to my home screen, instead it shows the empty wallpaper for half a second first, then it goes to the home screen. How can I disable this and just swipe home to go directly to my home screen?

It doesn't happen on OOS latest stable with stock launcher.
I'm on the latest version using the stock launcher and it's doing it.
I don't have this issue on ob 8, didn't have on last stable either.
