I didn't appreciate the notification for App Lock since I'm using Nova Launcher... Hopefully that was just a one time thing.....

excellent....
finally something that lock the apps

This is a very useful feature I saw a little bit of when I flashed the latest stock firmware and reset my phone this morning. It's a pity I don't use ASUS launcher, I hope other launchers implement this privacy feature!
ASUS is doing well on adding new features like being able to disable almost all system apps in latest update!
A moratorium on new features would be welcome however if it meant the 5.1 update would drop already!

heard the latest ZF2 variations like selfie, laser etc. have a new zenui launcher which is light and fast. Hope they release the same for existing ZF2 as well.

Nice addition, the lock home screen option was required there. :good::good:

I love the strides they've taken with the Asus launcher. Really commendable. The two different layouts, the privacy features and now the nice, fullscreen folder style.

Guys i cant use applock feature.
It keep asking me a password.any suggestion?

Are you sure it's not just asking you to set up a password?

After the update i got do many bugs..i did a hard reset and it was gone..ne sure to make back ups

If asking for password that is the other old fuction, it supposed to lock the app so no one can open it but with password and it can take the picture of that person who try to access it

Home 4.0 w/ app drawer is out

Open the LG SmartWorld App, Click the menu in the top left, expand LG Specials, then open LG Apps. You can then download LG Home 4.0 with the App drawer.

It that the same as the stock launcher except with an app drawer? I thought we had 5.0

Looks very similar to the stock launcher. It's worth the 1 minute of effort to go out and download and set as home launcher. Not having the app drawer was way more annoying than I thought it would be.

If you watch the LG Video again, you will see all of the icons revert to 4.0 icons.
Geeksmurf is correct - this is the app drawer implementation they show in the video.

added the APK to my general thread HERE
link to APK on Codefire is HERE (if you don't want to go through SmartWorld)

What options are in the settings menu in the app drawer?

I'm just curious is this an update to the stock launcher ? Compared to the one in G4 or V10

Nice to have options, I'm surprisingly liking the no app drawer. Never thought I would

It's a different launcher. The only difference I can see appears to be the app drawer addition.

From pictures and videos I have seen, the only difference I've spotted is that the folders are square instead of rounded squares on the 4.0 launcher.

Is this only compatible with G5 I currently have the V10

Hi all!
I have created a new theme called 'Stockify' for EMUI4+ devices. It has a few interesting things...
Where possible all icons are replaced by their stock Android equivalent
Other icons are replaced with fully licenced icons from icons8
The theme is deployed via the Play Store - you will be automatically notified of updates and it will take you through the install and update process
The install / update tool will be open source shortly for all EMUI theme developers
The theme is currently in Beta, I will be stockifying a lot more, but you can have a play now!
Simply download from the Play Store at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.olabs.theme.stockify
Enjoy!

Great job! No more ugly square background icons! ?

Thank you dude it looks nice
Sent from my EVA-L19 using XDA-Developers mobile app

It looks great, but can you make the icons slightly smaller? or an option to adjust icon size? it looks pretty big for me. Thanks

great job, thanks a lot
Sent from my EVA-L09 using XDA-Developers mobile app

Love it but I'm agreeing with other user if icons could be a little smaller
Sent from my EVA-L09 using XDA-Developers mobile app

Looks good but I would like to know if the font is changed by this theme before using it because there is no way to go back to stock font with EMUI 4 as there is no more font changing utility in stock OS.

This theme doesn't change the fonts.

Thanks @paulobrien now I can use Google Now launcher

Will the design of the settings, dialer, message and contacts app be changed in future updates?

Thanks from a very grateful Mate 8 user. Finally a theme that doesn't suck. Even if you are going to theme the other parts of the system, please keep one version as it is now.

Looking great. The only icon I personally don't like is the Heath icon. Heart is kinda medicine one, maybe it is worth to update it with something not so anatomical? ?

Have you ever told yourself "this wallpaper is cool, but I don't like the colors!" or something like that? You came in the right place! With Wallpaper Modder you can modify your current wallpaper with some filters in the quickest way possible!
FEATURES
-edit the wallpaper with many filters (hue, saturation, contrast, brightness, blur, invert colors)
-apply the modified wallpaper
-load an image from gallery to modify it
-save modified wallpapers *full version required*
(the full version can be purchased into the app with a cheap in app purchase: it will remove the little ads banner at the top of the screen and will allows you to save the modified wallpapers)
FAQs
-Can I apply wallpapers to the lockscreen? Yes, but because of an Android limitation at least android Nougat (7.0) is required. If you are at least on Nougat, you will be asked where to apply the wallpaper (homescreen, lockscreen or both). If not, the wallpaper will be applied to the homescreen.
-Can I edit and save all the wallpapers that you want? Yes, but you are the only responsible of your actions. Example: you break the copyright of the wallpaper's owner editing/sharing/saving the wallpaper if the author doesn't allow it.
DOWNLOAD: Google Play

Enjoy Wallpaper Modder

No problem your advice is welcome, but I'm not breaking any rule. I always post my works on XDA to receive feedbacks (but I'm not receiving them for this app unfortunayely). If a moderator feels that this thread breaks some rules he can let me know and I'll close the thread. If not, I'll patiently wait for some app's feedbacks

I Would be happy to give feedback if you could link me to the XDA version ? Which would have the same features as pro/paid version?

Impressive facts about Honor 8

Let's gather all the great "Did you know?" facts about Honor 8!
I'll start with what was a pleasant surprise for me:
1. Did you know flash optimized f2fs filesystem is used for internal storage? (why that is impressive? )

Updating the list with new findings:
Did you know...
2. Starting with EMUI 5 default camera has gained support for RAW format?
3. You can take a quick shot by double pressing volume down? (with the screen being off)
4. Kirin 950 (the SoC used in honor 8) Geekbench 4 multicore score beats exynos 8890 and Snapdragon 821?

what does that do

Did you know that on Honor and Huawei devices, it plays ambient music when it snows?

Gives you better disk I/O performance.
XDA and anadtech measured the OP3 transition from ext4 to f2fs and mentioned noticeable improvement:

Not joking! I'm not sure how to reproduce It, but it happens when it is snowing. So if you're somewhere snowy, watch out for it!

Could it be this? This is the inbuilt weather app. I've never heard a thing and I live in the Midwest. I'll turn it on and see if it plays.

We had quite some snow for a few days and I opened the weather app, had this tones on and plugged my headphones, but no sound did I hear.. I'm on beta though.
By the way, I think the tones option is related with app background colors, not sounds.

I just found out these two things were possible in my Honor 8. At least in EMUI 5.0
1. Lockscreen wallpaper scrolling.
2. and Lockscreen shortcuts pull up bar.
Probably I'm the only one that didn't know about this. Oh well, is my very first Huawei phone, not counting my wife's Honor 5x which she does not let me touch it at all. I wonder why?
