Hi all,
This is my first Huawei phone. I noticed that brightness of the screen will reduce (darken) for some apps, eg fb, chrome, dialer, even the auto brightness is unchecked. Do you experience the same?
It's a feature to prolong battery, all Huawei phones has it.

Yeah ok, thanks.
How do I get rid of the "feature"?
It's making the phone completely rubbish to use.
If I turn "Auto brightness" ON, the phone adjusts the brightness according to the lighting conditions around it (the screen does NOT go dim when launching apps).
If I turn "Auto brightness" OFF, the phone DIMS the screen when launching apps.
Come on HUAWEI!!! If I want the screen to auto adjust, I will set it to auto adjust.
I turned off auto brightness, toggled brightness to max and used the chrome browser. The brightness remains constant. No issues for me.

After update today to Oreo:
Same Problem with Huawei Mate 9 Update MHA-L29 8.0.0.361(C431)
It's A BUG not a feature.
After rebooting it`s okay and after standby and on again same problem again!
With Android 7 no problem!!!
Hi,
I had the same problem. In developer options I had "Force GPU rendering" enabled and that caused the issue.
Just disable it. Reboot the phone and it should be ok. When it does not help, "Restore default settings" in the developer options and reboot again.

No it's not working. I hqven't this option enabled, and if I open chrome it will dim a little.
I enabled GPU rendering and that sorted it thanks
Scrap that it's still doing it
Automatic Brightness Issues..
I have similar issue with the one wrote here in xda - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/help/brightness-automatically-reduced-apps-t3697589
That is even with the auto brightness ticked-off and smart screen feature also off, the screen will automatically dim after few seconds I opened the Facebook app for example.
I tried opening the Hi-Care app but it doesn't has this problem.
Can Huawei fix this very annoying bug soon?
I believe majority of users would not affected by this because they set their brightness less than 50%. But for those who prefer bright screen like me, this is extremely annoying feature even it said to help prolong battery life!
Thank you.
Would a custom ROM fix this issue ? Only reason I would root this phone ! Hopefully get one soon now that we have a custom recovery.
Can you try exempting from battery optimization? Search for "Configure Apps" in settings, go to special access, and then "Exempt from battery optimization"
I personally don't notice this issue, so I can't test it.
Try to disable "Increase Readability in Sunlight" at developer options
Same exact problem here on my Mate 10 Pro - first noticed it a couple days ago, after i had the phone for a day or two. It's a very slight change - I mainly notice it in Chrome and Facebook. Some apps do it, but not all. Basically, when you launch the app, the whites are normal brightness according to your set brightness, then within half a second, it dims just slightly - like 10-20%. Then if you press the home button, you can see a slight change again to normal brightness as the app fades out. Not the end of the world but still a bit annoying. I never noticed this with my Mate 9 (which didn't get Oreo yet). Would be nice to have a fix for this.

Did you restart your phone or do anything after? i changed the setting and don't see a difference - seems like it still does it.
Just compared to my son's mate 10 Pro and his screen is actually brighter on the Facebook app and all our settings are the same so must be different panel.

Bro, Switch off everything in Setting>>Smart Assistance.
Make everything to off, surely it will help you.
The "adaptive brightness" is bugged and dims the screen on certain applications, regardless of what options you have turned on or off. Huawei confirmed it is an EMUI issue. Who knows if they'll actually resolve it as they don't see it as a major issue.
It was major enough for me that I sold my Huawei Mate 10 after a few days.
i dont have it in 8.0.0.137. bug was present in 8.0.0.128. atleast for me. there is maybe sligt dim for like 5% in music sometimes and thats it as far as i can tell
Same issue here, tried many different fixes and attempts to disable it, still happens in all apps/games. It is noticeable immediately once the app/game has been launched.
It feels like a 10-15% decrease in brightness. Hopefully this is fixed in the next update.
Ps. I previously had the Mate 9, had the very same problem!!!
Hi Everyone,
Why Huawei didn't activate this function to their high end phone. THIS IS VERY USEFUL.
Anyone, manage to activate this on their rooted mate 10 pro?
Think you posted in the wrong section, only way is to install nova launcher as it works with this

No, nova launcher has no double tap to wake. It has only double tap to sleep. I think you are wrong. If there is, pls guide me and appreciate it much.

Some weeks ago someone hinted at some code in the firmware which was supposed to handle double tap to wake. But there's no confirmation anywhere that Huawei will ever enable or further develop that code, just assumptions.
in Mate 8 forum there is a thread about enabling double tap to wake through some modifications on build prop.
That requires Root but I have no idea if that procedure could be implemented on mate 10

It's probably because of the screen technoligy that's being used.
I thought I'd miss the double tap to wake after coming from a oneplus one but the fingerprint sensor on this phone is so good I haven't looked back, one press and it's unlocked

Yes, the sensor is good, but kind of difficult to access while phone is mounted in a car - double tap to wake would be nice then, I miss it from my OnePlus X.
hello to all.... is possible that even in march update official, for huawei mate pro, is not present double tap to wake? other alternatives drain many battery... i hope a solution in last 4 monthes in this post
my solution
Hello,
As a former LG G2 user I've quickly begun to miss the double tap to wake/sleep | knockon/off function with my Huawei Mate 10 Pro. So after lots of investigations and app trials here's my solution which seems to perform pretty well in my opinion.
After trying many apps I've encountered the so called 'Always on AMOLED | Edge lighting'.
Here's my setup on the mate 10 pro (emui 8.0.0, android 8.0.0, build 8.0.0.157 C432) first:
1) Disable smart cover
2) Disable pick to wake
3) Disable pulse light (it won't work and we'll use app's notification handling which is great in my opinion)
4) Disable always on display information
5) After installing the app (VERY IMPORTANT!):
- Go to ignore battery optimisation in android's settings and add this app to the Allowed list
- Go to battery / launch - then Manage manually the amoled app:
* set to on - auto launch
* set to on - secondary launch
* set to on - run in background
To quickly find the upper settings use the search bar in the settings menu.
Then in the app (v. 2.1.7 tested):
1) I've made a fully black background instead of a clock - upto your flavor
2) Enable the POCKET MODE! This actually saves battery a lot since if proximity sensor is covered the screen is completely shut down. When you sleep/want to save battery place the phone with face down - sounds as no problem to me..
3) Brightness is set to 10 or so - again upto you, the less the better for the battery
For double tap to lock I use a widget placed all over the screens where there are no icons - sounds annoying but once settled it works flawlessly. Here's the widget I use - DTS widget Skynet Software.
To be honest I've found it from this forum.
Share your experience as I might have missed something.
P.S Somehow the power button won't lock the screen now but I don't use it at all anyway, so no problem to me..
P.S.2 I would have bought another LG phone if only they have kept the IR Blaster but that's another story..

Same, I only like double-tap to wake on my phones without fingerprint sensors. On my mate 10 and Xiaomis, whether front or back, I am prone to using the fingerprint sensors, and they bypass the lock screen too.
Of course, it's a nice feature to have that doesn't drain battery, all my phones, except Huawei, have dt2w.
Like the title says:
I've updated my device from 129 to 137 firmware with Firmware Finder. After update I noticed long delay, when I try to unlock the device with fingerprint, with Always on display on. When AOD is turned off, all is fine? I managed factory data reset, but it didn't help. Anyone else?
I'm on the same update c636, but no delays.
I'm on 137 (C432) and also noticed huge delay with unlock/screen wake up when AOD is on. I experienced more bugs(?) on this rom.
A friend of mine encountered this bug on his mate 10 pro C432 after updating to 137 firmware. While the AOD is on, press the power button / scan your finger -> after that, it takes about 6 seconds for the lock screen / home screen to show up.
I disabled "accessibility shortcut" in "accessibility" in settings and the bug disappeared. Turning the option back on again didn't make the bug reappear...
Maybe try the about suggestion... it might fix it for you too.
Edit: the bug is back. It seems it has nothing to do with the above. Apparently, sometimes the bug is present, and sometimes (for about an hour) it just goes away by itself...

Hi, any solution ?
Nope, waiting for next update, hope it will fix this issue.
Bump...anyone fix this super annoying issue yet?
I disabled AOD to get around mine. When I was getting this bug, you could hear the unlock sound but the AOD would still display. I would lock with the power button and then unlock with fingerprint again and it would work.
Thanks, gave that a try looks to have sped up unlock! Now if I could only get HBO, showtime, movie anywhere to work...
Yay, they fixed it on 142 ?
Developer options may be the answer
Hi,
I recently updated to 363 (185) on my P10 plus
Lag returned - i previously had the problem that I was able to fix by disabling the accessibility shortcut above.
Current fix - worked for me:
settings -> system -> Developer options
Disable the following (update should have them set as 0.5x)
- Window Animation Scale
- Transition Animation Scale
- Animator Duration Scale
Hope this helps everyone on the Mate also
please let me know if it does.
Thanks
I've tried the prior fixes, and they don't seem to want to work.
I just changed my animation and duration scaling.
I'm running the most recent beta of Lineage OS from OpenKirin.
It's stable, and works just fine. This is more of a nuisance than a real problem.
I'll let you know if the fix applies to this build.
Thanks for the information!!
No joy, so I'll wait to see if it gets addressed in the next betas with OpenKirin.
I have a pocophone on global MIUI 9, and whenever a notification is supposed to pop up while my phone is asleep, it doesn't. It shows up when I turn the screen on instead. The app I'm testing with is IFTTT.
I've already disabled MIUI optimizations, disabled battery optimization for that app, allowed all permissions, allowed autoboot, and turned on all notification options. Still happens.
Any way to fix or do I just have to wait for custom roms to fix Xiaomi's mess of a notification system? Anyone know if MIUI 10 fixes it?
Go to lock screen and password, check wake lock screen for notifications. That should resolve this

It's already on.
I don't mean that the notifications show up but don't wake the screen, I mean that they don't show up at ALL until I wake it myself, like the app is frozen.
Have you put an aggressive battery management setting in place? Or is the battery saver mode on? That might delay syncs
For me turning off non interactive mode in battery settings did the job. Since I disabled it all notifications are popping up as they should.

Sorry for reviving a dead q&a thread. Its actually xiaomi fault. Got 3 of them device and all reacted the same way. No way you can fix it either with custom roms nor kernel. The only way to fix this is to install SOD killer and let it run. Youll get your notification instantly.

Ahhh!!! This had been driving me crazy! Sometimes I'd be alerted to a new SMS; other times the phone wouldn't beep/vibrate, flash the LED or produce a notification.
I've just disabled this setting:
Settings -> Battery & performance -> Scenes -> Non-interactive mode
Non-interactive mode
Don't light up screen for notifications, turn off
LED light, fingerprint sensor, and touch controls
to save battery when MIUI detects you aren't
using your device.

Did it fix the problem for you? It didn't for me.... I have this issue with Gmail notifications and nothing seems to solve it. I'm on MIUI 11 Android 10 from Xiaomi.eu, and the worst thing is that it didn't happen on Android 9... So things went wrong for me after the update.. Any idead, anyone?
i started having the same issue with miui 10 onwards and never with miui 9 or non-miui custom roms.
Has anyone tried the Adaptive Notifications function from Developer Options in Android 10? Does it change anything/fix the MIUI notifications management?

Yes -- it seems to have fixed the problem. I don't use GMail, though.
Actually, I've missed a few alert sounds (far far fewer than before). I'm not sure if it's just that I didn't notice, or if leaving the app open and the screen on (sometimes?) prevents the alert sound...? Probably just me!

I can't see that setting in the MIUI 10 developer options. I've searched around, but I don't think it exists in MIUI...
Good for you man! It seems to have helped a little bit for me as well, especially with messenger notifications, but the Gmail ones are still delayed
I think I can live with it for now.
Adaptive notifications have been introduced in Android 10 so you need that and MIUI 11 apparently.
Can someone confirm this bug? I can't seem to be able to turn CABL off. Even though I turned it off in the MIUI settings (through a link generated by Nova launcher), the phone still boost the backlight when there is a white text on a black background. Scrolling through a webpage with a dark background constantly changes the backlight level. Very irritating when trying to read at night.
