Huawei home launcher error

This morning after 5 Playstore updates error Huawei home : icons needs to be set back to standard... Respring off launcher error again, same problem ... This loops.. managed to get in settings , clear the data off Huawei home... Same problem, clean cache, same problem... Managed to get in to play store installed now launcher... Problem solved for now... I had Facebook Facebook pages beta updates, Google now app beta update en WhatsApp beta update... No Huawei updates what so ever... Anyone an idea or the same problem?
I have the normal working original no root or bl unlocked EU mate 9 on b136.

You might have luck opening "Settings" --> "Apps" and taking a look at that list of apps (maybe you'll need to activate "Show System Processes" (or similar, I'm using my Mate 9 with german localisation), but I'd try with the non-system apps first, as that list is shorter).
I had the same problem you are describing and the reason was the app "Ford Service", which had a completely empty name in the settings list of installed apps. After I uninstalled that app the launcher stopped from constantly reloading.
Maybe you have an app with an empty or "problematic" name as well, which forces the EMUI launcher to crash.

Oke oke ...Will check it... But what is Ford service ?? How did u find out this was the problem

Coincidence or not I can tell you that the latest Facebook version was absolutely hammering my battery. It consumed 14% in just 1 hour while sitting idle. I was forced to uninstall it and I'm now using the desktop version via Hermit.
Funny enough now Facebook Messenger is going wild and I keep getting power-intensive notifications. I have to wonder what the heck is going on in the background...

"Ford Service" is an app for Ford drivers (containing information about local and general service phone numbers etc.). I suspected that you have another app installed, which might have the same problem.
Are you using the EMUI launcher with or without the activated app drawer? In my case (with the "Ford Service" app installed) the launcher only crashed when the app drawer was activated. Deactivating the app drawer stopped the launcher from crashing.
EDIT: Added a screenshot, which shows the app with the "empty name". As long as I had that app installed, the EMUI launcher kept crashing the way you described, as long as the app drawer was activated.

I using the app drawer... But no Ford service.
Indeed... All fb apps are going wild today...
I uninstall now all fb apps... See what's happening

Deleted fb FB messenger and pages manager ... All oke now... Default Huawei launcher working like normal

Same on My girl Phone, uninstalled fb messenger (with no Name listed under options->app) And now seems all ok....
Thx for the hint!

Guys, im having trouble with my app drawer too, no icons appear! I searched the Huawei Home apk but i didnt find the 6.3.47 which is the version the Mate 9 has. I will try uninstalling Facebook and Messenger and see what happens.
EDIT: The issue is still there. I really dont know whats the deal with this.

Amazfit chinese version Sync with Strava

Hello all,
few days ago I purchased a amazfit chinese version. The phone in my possession is an iPhone 6 Plus.
I downloaded from the Apple store the app Amazfit where I have managed without problem to activate the phone.
Unfortunately, however, I can't do the sync with Strava, there's no way. Tells me to log in on the Street asks me for authorization, and then if I agree I do not go out much.
What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks to all,
Vincenzo

The trick on Android was to change from Chinese App to the Playstore version as the Chinese watch is not intended to be synched with Strava.
But i don't know how they do it on iOS.
One solution might be to flash the watch to US version and then pair it but i am not sure if that will work.
If they check serial number when pairing it will not work, if they check firmware version it will.

Hello
in the end I fixed it and the sync between Strava and the iPhone 6 Plus works without problems.
The initial problem I think it was Strava as it took a long time to sync. Now I can just go to run and log my activities on the Amazfit then when I get home to pair everything with the iPhone and then sync everything with Strava.

Do you have the chinese amazifit watch with PACEfied?
If so what Amazfit app do you have in your iPhone? In mine there is NO option for sync with Strava, don't know if my app is the chinese one...

So after months, is there any possibility now to use PACEfied with google play Amazfit version and sync with Strava? I can't scan the barcode (it says that I need cn version)

Honor Band 4 - Questions & Answers

I think it's best to consolidate all the questions about the watch and find solutions together. Hope it will become something of like a mega thread in the future.

** Reserved for future use.

I'm about to buy Honor Band 4. My question is what activities are synced to Google Fit? Steps, activities, sleep ...?

Can it be used for heart monitoring while using Health app during running?

HB4 can share fit data with some others apps on the Huawei Health menu : Google Fit, MyFitnessPal.
When launch Exercice from the HB4 : Walk, Run..... it show usual data : stopwatch, Heart Rate, distance, steps.....

Hello to you
Why doesn’t the Honor band 4 appear in the list of devices connected to bluethoot?
Sorry about the English.

Hello everyone,
there is a way to use the HB4 to control the music player or "remote photo shoot" even for non-Huawei devices running EMUI 8.1 or later?

No smart features in the HB4 just basic notifications, stopwatch, timer, alarm.
it seem HB4 use a BT LE only and directly connected with the Huawei Health app, no as classic BT device.

Is it possible to use the Honor Band 4 with Google Pay?

No

For those who have cell phone in pt-br, I read that now the honor Band 4 is in pt-pt with the cell phone in pt-br. Does anyone confirm?

Any idea?
The running system of the band is highly inaccurate
But it could be useful to monitor the heart rate

development for honor band 4
Hello everyone I'm thinking of development of honor band 4. Like custom skin development and all. Can someone help me with it?

hi,
my honor band 4 won't charge to 100% it stuck on 90%, i have reset the band, unpar/par, change charging devices/ports but i still have the problem. Any suggestion?

Any one know where to get custom firmware for honor band 4
A custom face I believe!
Please share

Pairing with 3rd party app?
Is it possible to pair Honor Band 4 as a pulse meter for third-party applications (Endomondo, Runtastic,...)? Thx.

Honor band compatibility with Samsung Health App
may I check if the Honor Band 4 is compatible with Samsung Health App? Does anyone having the HB4 mind trying to sync if it works?

I will be attempting to use HB4 sync to Huawei Health App, then using Huawei Health app to sync to Google Fit, before use Google fit to sync to Samsung Health. For Google fit to samsung health, I'm using Health sync to do it. Seems like the only possible way I think

Ticwatch Pro. Does anyone use Wechat?

Hello everyone. I am currently living in China. I wanna buy Ticwatch Pro, but here I can get only Chinese version with Chinese language. (no GPlay, no Google assistant, no English keyboard)
Most popular chat here is Wechat, so before buy global version it would be nice to check
DOES IT WORK ON GLOBAL VERSION?
AND IF YES, IS IT CAPABLE REPLY ON MESSAGES THERE?
So, guys, I'm asking for your help. Please let me know if you have Global version and you use Wechat on the watch.
If you never used Wechat, If it's possible for you, can you download Wechat and try it. You can write me to check. My Wechat 13162747693
I'd really appreciate for your help.
If you have any suggestion you also can write me on email [email protected]
Thanks for your time and have a good day.

I'm on ticwatch pro usa version, wechat is not supported, you can't find it in the watch's playstore.

Thanks for your answer. I checked a lot about this situation. I found out that you can use Wechat if you have it on your phone. After connection, Watch automatically install Wechat and it works fine.
Opposite for Alipay. You can find it at app store, but it shows, that you can't install it, because it's not support in your region.
Can u try please to find Alipay at watch store and install it? No need register account, just install and open app. If no problem with it, I'll buy it.
Thanks a lot.

Nope, I have wechat on my phone and it doesn't install any wechat app on my watch, in fact, it doesn't even show wechat's notifications (probably a bug, I don't know). But I'm on the English wechat, not sure if the Chinese one will have more options.
EDIT: Correction, wechat does show up in "Apps on your phone" list on the watch if you have it installed on your phone.
As for Alipay, you can find it in playstore but it says it is incompatible and will not install.
