Hey guys, I live in China and I just got one from their flagship store in Shanghai, must say it's indeed a very impressive phone but only on hardware perspective, as for the software, nah.
More details will be available once I have time to explore, main phone still will be Galaxy S8 and iPhone X at this moment

I would say it's okay for the camera but not the best, its cheaper sibling Vivo Nex has better image quality compared with.
The speaker is mono unfortunately, I think they don't have enough space to fit a large audo component into that tiny upper frame, a bit sad.
Battery is above the average, will do a intensive battery consumption test once I have time.:fingers-crossed:

So far the only way is to get adb working
Type
Adb shell (hit enter)
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.oppo.launcher (hit enter)
However when you swipe up from center it gives you a blank screen. You then have to hit lock screen or drag up from center and hold to show recents then you can drag up from center and it will go to your launcher.
Before using the command above make sure you already have the 3rd party launcher installed
Got one from China, using in Canada right now
Google Assistance isnt working for me (cannot trigger via voice or home button)
Android Auto is not working
Have trouble to disable voicemail notification, Pixel 2 can disable it via some trick but not working with Find X
LTE band works great and download/upload speed is faster than my Pixel 2 (Telus+Freedom Mobile)
URL Links that require to open Google Play wont work, it will open the built-in broswer even I switch the default browser to Chrome, it will not open google play directly
Same idea for google calendar and other google deep intergrated services/app
Need International ROM!!!

My OFX should be arriving any minute now....
Is there an option in the settings to go without a lockscreen?
I don't use a lock screen of any sort, I'll be giving this app a shot (with & without a lock screen) to see what, if any, effect it has, with both swipe gestures & nav buttons.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock
I realize most people use a lockscreen but,thought some may be willing to go without one if, in exchange, you may be able to skip a couple of swipes/etc... in the process.

Yep, never use a lockscreen and go straight to the GUI from the fingerprint scanner or face unlock, positively hate the extra step. It's a key issue for me so I'm counting on you folks getting it resolved.

Found the setting to turn off lockscreen,but,at least for now,it comes at a price:
The good news: Look no further than developer options,it's the 2nd option.
The not so good: You're stuck with the yellow warning background in the status bar
The background color could be disabled on the VIVO NEX by killing the VIVO Services app,at least until the next reboot,not the best option,but,I could live with it.
Perhaps the OPPO equivalent,whatever that .apk is named,will serve us the same result,I'll be spending the better part of the evening trying out different apps.........

How do you like this device compared to the nex?
I'm jot sure if this is a bug or just a huawei thing. When pressing the recent apps button whilst already in an app, on any other phone I have had it brings up the current app first and allows you to scroll through. I have noticed on the mate 20 pro it opens to the 'middle' and app of however many you have open not the app you actually had open at first.
Is there any way to change this?
I think it is defaulting to the app before the one you are currently using? I think it's a good idea. If you are going to recent apps you are usually looking for the last app before the one you are in. If you are on the home screen you will get the last app you used.
I mean lets be honest, if you are in the messenger app for instance, and press recents, unless you want to kill the app, which you won't want to do most of the time, why would you need to see the current app you're already in?
It's a great example of forward thinking by Huawei., such as when you have auto rotate turned off and you turn your phone sideways, it shows a little rotate button on the corner of the navigation keys to let you rotate.
I've noticed that it if you've just unlocked the phone, the first time you press the recent apps button it will alway opens the current app. This is super annoying if you want to doubletap to switch the last app - all it does is flash the app switcher and then bring you back to your current app. Subsequent presses work correctly, but every time you lock and unlock the phone it resets.
What I find annoying is scrolling left to right on the most recent apps.
My G4 & Gemini (admittedly both on Android 7 so not sure if this is an Android 9 or Huawei "feature") both scroll top to bottom which is much more natural IMHO

Thanks for this! This also worked for me using Honor View 10. This is like the only thread I could find about the new recent apps garbage because it doesn't play well with Nova Launcher. Thanks again, working so far. My recents apps is now what it's supposed to be, reliable, consistent, and functional.
This method also prevents from apps being closed after using the camera for a while, proves that the phone is handicapped by awful software

EDIT: Nevermind, solved it:

cmd package install-existing com.huawei.android.launcher
this method is not working on Emui 10. Recent apps not show after uninstall launcher. So sad.

Hi Guys,
I've made a video demonstrating how I accidentally enabled the Android Oreo style multitasking cards, pretty cool as I hate the new Android P style.
https://youtu.be/-gra_UFSBGE
the commands is:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.android.launcher
Ensure you have another launcher installed and enabled BEFORE removing the stock launcher.
Also note you will loose the stock gestures if you enable it, only the back command works.
So I had to overscan the screen to remove the Nav bar, as using immersive mode broke the lock screen.
Great! By the way, how can I revert back if I ever want to have the Huawei Launcher back?

Yer the only way to revert back is to reset the phone back to factory settings, unless you side load the APK file for the Huawei EMUI 9.0 Launcher (if you save a copy).
But no love lost for me, IMHO it's a crap launcher and multitasking interface...

When using the system gesture navigation mode, It breaks the swipe up and swipe up and hold from the bottom of the screen.
And unfortunately even using the edge gesture application to replace those, it won't allow it, it's somehow blocks it.
The back gestures work tho.
You can use the regular nav bar and then a gesture application and then swipe up works, but enabling immersive mode breaks the lock screen (shows up black with a delay to display the lock screen).
So I use and combination of system gesture mode, for the back command and full screen mode, and edge gestures for the rest (from the sides of the screen), however tap and tap and hold do work on the btm of the screen using edge gestures, just not swipe up as described above.
If anyone can get the swipe up to work that would be greatly appreciated.

You don't need to Uninstall important packages that you might want to re-enable later.
It is possible to just disable them, and keep the files available for easy re-enabling!
* FIRST OF ALL:
adb shell
* TO LIST ALL INSTALLED STUFF:
pm list packages | sort
* TO DISABLE A PACKAGE (for example the Huawei launcher):
pm disable-user --user 0 <Package Name>
* TO UNDO (re-enable):
pm enable --user 0 <Package Name>

I like the new P multitasking. The old stack multitasking was nightmare. You were able only to switch to the previuos apps since all others were hidden behind. The EMUI 9 implementation is similar to the EMUI 4.1. The only thing that I miss from 4.1 is the long press action on the recent app. In the EMUI 9 task switcher you need to long press the icon which is too small.
The EMUI 4.1 task switcher is maybe the best Android stock switcher.

This is the best answer. My phone's lag just gone.
You should start a new thread to tell others. Even XDA homepage shows uninstalling option.
can someone who has uninstalled the launcher do a quick check for me?
please install the newest pixe launcher or 1 of the newest pie launchers and set the navbar to the keys (no gestures), give the new launcher all permissens that it wants and reboot.
i would like to know if the new nav gestures and recents overview will kick in and work

I was having the same issue. You need to manually add permissions in the apps settings, then set the Pixel Launcher as your default and it won't crash.
So is this specific to Mate 20 pro? I'd like to try this on my Honor 8x.
I wish we could do this without breaking the gestures, I love them as they are more intuitive and donde waste any space like the nav bar did,
I wish Huawei copied Xiaomi's MIUI recents UI for EMUI 10, Xiaomi's implementation is the very best one out there, better than stock, even better than the old LP-Oreo recents

It looks nice, however, my experience so far with these third party apps is that they end up turning into battery and RAM hogging bottlenecks, I don't know if it is the case with his one.
Just FYI
You can reinstall the launcher with this command, as the apk is actually still in the phones memory...
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.huawei.android.launcher
Also you can block background usage of the Home launcher if you're using an alternative one with this command;
adb shell cmd appops set com.huawei.android.launcher RUN_IN_BACKGROUND ignore

4. Tap and hold on the weather widget.

How can I delete some defaults software. What is the software you use?
I love that OnePlus gives us the option to use either gesture or three-button navigation. But I wish we had two-button navigation too! It's the best of both worlds! The good news is that it's super easy to enable Two Button Navigation with a super quick and easy ADB command. You will need USB Debugging enabled on your phone and ADB installed on your computer.
ADB Command: adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.twobutton
Check out the video here to see it in action.
If you are on Android 11, the first method will not work. Please watch this video for instructions on how to get Two Button Navigation working on Android 11 (root required):

they were the OnePlus gestures found on the OnePlus 6t that's what I came from and the back was a swipe up from the bottom corner of the left or the right side and then swipe up home was straight up from the center and then recents was swipe up and hold and then you can also jump to your last app that you opened by swiping up and to the right.

So it took me a few minutes to refresh my memory but I figured out what you're looking for! Good news is that I have the answer, bad news is that it's not what you're looking for.
When Google rolled out Android 10 they basically gave OEM's requirements on how the navigation bar had to work. The old implementation you're looking for is OnePlus's take on gesture navigation and Google basically says don't do it. So when they rolled out the OnePlus 7, they got rid of that option.
There might still be a way to enable it, but I haven't found anything yet. If I do, I'll be sure to let you know!
Here's a really good write up that explains the change. https://www.xda-developers.com/google-gesture-navigation-android-10/

Yes should be nice...
On 6T Android10 , we have both options to choose, google implementation and this one from OnePlus, for gesture navigation..
I believe this app will provide you all the gestures you need, posted elsewhere on these forums.

I'm using fluid navigation control for now. Was just hoping to not have to use a app for gestures.

So it took me a few minutes to refresh my memory but I figured out what you're looking for! Good news is that I have the answer, bad news is that it's not what you're looking for.
When Google rolled out Android 10 they basically gave OEM's requirements on how the navigation bar had to work. The old implementation you're looking for is OnePlus's take on gesture navigation and Google basically says don't do it. So when they rolled out the OnePlus 7, they got rid of that option.
There might still be a way to enable it, but I haven't found anything yet. If I do, I'll be sure to let you know!
Here's a really good write up that explains the change. https://www.xda-developers.com/google-gesture-navigation-android-10/

FWIW, Google doesn't force OEMs to get rid of their own gesture implementation - they just have to hide it behind one extra Settings layer. For example, on the OPPO Find X2 Pro running ColorOS 7.1, you can still enable the swipe-up gestures (the same one from older versions of OxygenOS) as well as Google's full-screen gestures.

I wish it was a bug! Unfortunately, it's 100% by design. With Android 10, Google basically retired any navigation options that weren't their gesture or three-button options. Manufacturers can still include their own options but they have to do it in a submenu and can't use the Google framework files for it. They basically have to repack a bunch of files to get their stuff in the right spot on the menus, to get the overlay to work correctly, and then they have to still push the Google options as the default. It's just not cost-effective for OnePlus (or any manufacturer other than maybe Samsung) to use another option now. This method worked because OnePlus already had the work done on the framework, they just didn't update the menu to show their navigation options. With Android 11, there was enough of a rebase going on that they didn't go through the effort of adding it back in. But hey, this is XDA. I'm sure we'll see some mods in the future that will bring it back though!
