I have two questions.
1) is there a way in this rom to turn off auto rotate? Can't seem to find it.
2) what does everyone do to help battery life?

Go to Settings → Accessibility and unckeck the Auto-rotate screen option. Also, if you want to be able to quicky change the auto-rotation setting, you can add a quick toggle, in Settings → Toolbars
2) what does everyone do to help battery life?

Personally I use Titanium Backup to freeze (or even uninstall) some of the applications I do not use. Usually I disable: Google Maps, Google Search, Street View, Gallery (and use QuickPic instead), Launcher (I prefer Action Launcher or Apex), Voice Recorder (the Nook does not have a microphone anyway), and some others. If you don't have Titanium Backup, you can go to Settings → Apps → All, scroll to the bottom of the list to see the system applications, tap on the one you want to disable, and then tap the Disable button.
Hope this helps!
Hi Guys
Over the last couple of days I've been having problems with my screen jumping a little bit when i either close an app (with the exception of chrome) to return to the home screen or if I'm in the settings and i go back a page (it jumps every time i go pack a page).
If leave the phone in sleep mode for a while, when i unlock it everything works ok for the first 5-10 seconds and then it goes back to jumping if i close an app....etc
I've been doing a bit of googling (is that a word....lol) and there's a few people with the problem but i cant find any fixes.
I'm guessing that it could be that something on the motherboard has overheated but this is just a guess.
If anyone has any ideas then please let me know ?
Also I've found a temporary cure for when it happens when i close an app by installing nova launcher and going into the “look and feel” settings and enabling “slide Up” under the “App Animation” setting.
But does anyone know of an app that will allow me to change the transition effects of windows ?
Thanks guys

you've said that you have nova launcher installed...
nova settings > desktop > scroll effect (premium version offers more transition effects)
also, go to device settings > developer tools > and set animation scales to 0.5 instead of 1
if you don't have developer options under device settings, do the following:
1. open settings menu
2. go in "about phone" submenu
3. there go in "software information" submenu
4. click 7 to 8 times quickly on "build number"
5. developer tools should now be showing just above the "about phone” in settings
DO NOT change anything else there besides that animation scale values
Thanks for the reply
Yes i have nova installed and i have it set on cube but thats just for the home screen.
What i need is an app that will let me change other screens.
For example the screens in settings.
The strange thing is that the screen only seems to jump when im going back (i think its the zoom out effect).
Ive just found an app called xuimod that u think has the oprion i need.
Ill post back if it works
Well guys....
It turns out i can do everything with xuimod so i dont even need to keep nova.
But i dont think this fix is going to last if the jumping gets worse.
So is there any known fix for the jumpy screen ?
Anyone ?
Its like a VERY mild form of whats happening to this guys phone:

Hi all,
Im using P10 Plus for a while. sometime when i scroll down or scroll up it draws a blue line (like a photoshop tool) and once you complete it creates the screenshot of the image. How can i do it whenever i want?.
Any one knows it?
It's a feature you can turn it off in settings > smart assitance > motion control > smart screenshot.
Hey there,
I have a Mate 8 Chinese version. Build Number NXT-AL10C00B592. My Phone is rooted.
My goal is to replace the HiVoice with the Google Assistant.
What I've done so far:
- Remove the HiVoice App described as here https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/how-to-replace-hivoice-vocal-assistant-t3465522/amp/
Even this was a P9 article, I gave it a try. Well.. the HiVoice is gone now.
- Installed the Google app, configured the speech assistant. In order to do this I had to set the Google Assistant as default assistant in my app settings. (apps - settings - default app - assistant - assistant-app =Google). Once this was done I was able to press the Home-Button to activate the Google Assistant. Awesome.. I thought so.. after approx. 15 minutes, it wasn't working anymore. The default assistant app was set to None..
So I thought it is maybe because of the Depp-sleep-device-idle Huawei-special-whatever.. so I tried to disable this one via adb.. works fine.. my WhatsApp messages arrive immediately,even if the app is closed.. yay, but that was not my goal..
I am at the end of my knowledge. Do you guys have any idea how to set the Google Assistant as default permanently? Maybe there is a config file that I could modify or something..
Thanks mates,

I'm experiencing the same problem here, and I'm also looking for solutions. I tried using Ice Box and successfully disabledthe Hivoice App. After playing around for a while Iwould say that force stopping the Google app would reset the assist app to none. I tried setting the assist app to Cortana and force closing it but the setting remains. On the other hand however, In my experience on a global model it seems the Google app (as a system app) cannot be force stopped, unless you disable and re-enable it, which also causes the assist app to be reset. maybe there's a switch that makes the google app persistent, and I hope that helps.
I seem to be able to solve this issue, but I'm on EMUI 8.1 and on P20Pro, not sure if it's suitable for your case - probably it's the same case for all recent Huawei phones (Chinese ver.) so I just post it here:
1. Go to settings > Apps & notifications > Apps > Google > Advanced > Set write system setting to "Yes".
2. On the same page, change the Google app launch to "Manage manually" and turn on Auto-launch, Secondary launch, and Run in background.
3. If you still have HiVoice installed, just turn off the write system setting permission on HiVoice in case it's overwriting the Google voice command.
I have checked in an hour or two so far, tried to restart my phone too, the default app for voice is still with Google and "OK Google" works smoothly. Still with one flaw, once you call the Google assistance, don't close/clean it otherwise the setting will be reset.
Thanks to Ronald.Cheng I have followed your first step and decided to add my own steps and so far I have been using my phone for whole day and even restare how I modified the setting.
1. Go to settings > Apps & notifications > Apps > Google > Set write system setting to "Yes".
2. Go to settings > Apps & notifications > Apps > Google > Battery > uncheck "close after the screen locked"
If it is possible, repeat 2. On assistant
I hope it works with your Huawei.
Same problem unsolved
Hello,
I have a honor note 10 (Chinese mui 8.2) and the same problem. First I struggled to install and use Google assistant and had to force enable it, and now it works until it resets itself. I followed the instructions below but I doesn't seem to do anything. Is there any way I can make Google a system app or with similar rights using adb or whatever ?

Doing the following only worked for me:
1. Go to settings > Apps & notifications > Apps > Google > Advanced > Set write system setting to "Yes"

This is present on the 8 Pro too, but back also trigger home in my case ?
Does anyone know why and how to fix?
Same for me love the old one plus gesture of swiping up from the corners to go back,and this edit using the app in the article brings that back,but correct when you swipe up from corner instead of taking you back to the previous page in an app etc ,it just takes you straight to home screen .
It seems both OP gestures and a10 gestures are on simultaneously. There should be a way to disable a10 ones
I got it fully working on my 8 Pro I just need the assistant disabled it keeps popping up when I go back. I asked on the other thread (themes and apps) of the 2 button gestures control got no reply it's been a fews days. If after you set it in the app to activate then in settings, and buttons and gestures you should just see the how to on the bottom of the screen with no option to pick it but there activated

I still have assistant it pops up every time I go back I need it disabled. I ask on how to disable it. just hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I figured with the assistant disabled on the corner I can still use the hey Google hot word. If not oh well I don't use it much enough to miss it.

Disable assistant on settings
---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 PM ----------
Settings>apps& notification>default apps>assist & voice input>assist app> none
I wasn't able to disable Assistant as I have no option other than Google in the Assist & Voice input.
I found a way to disable the Assistant with the following adb command:
Code:
adb shell settings put secure assistant 0
This will remove the assistant gesture completely.
The only problem, that the setting resets after restart.
Another possible solution is to install Tasker from the Play Store and start it up.
Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Default apps > Assist & voice input > Assist app. Select Tasker and click OK.
Perform the assistant gesture and click "Stop Reminding".
Open Tasker again and in the menu on the top right just select Disable Tasker.

You can disable it through settings. Unsure of exactly where the setting is, but in settings, search for default assist.
Is it just me that despite all this tricks still ends up home when swiping for back on the right hand side?
I manage to only go back, but for that to work I need to swipe aaaal the way to the right (like on the curved part), and still there it triggers the to lines coming in from the sides and meeting up in the middle. I think this is something like a animation for the assistant.
I didn't know I was able to disable it (Google Assistant). thank you very much. Done and back to stock OnePlus gestures control. ? Much appreciated

And this option (none) as it is shown on the picture isn't shown to me. There are only Google Assistant, Firefox and a third app to choose but the option"none"is not offered. So it seems I am unable to disable the Assistant to get back the OnePlus gestures. Someone has any advice how to get it disabled?
If you follow my post to change it via the command of just change it to use Tasker, it'll work.
I don't have to option to select nothing either, but with the ADB command, you can force it, until a restart and this method will disable the gesture completely. If you decide to use tasker, the gesture will stay there, so you'll see the lines going from the corners towards the middle, but no action to8 be performed.

Yeah I have the same problem in apps and notifications / default apps./ Assist. On previous devices this is where I disabled the assistant, but the option none isn't here. The one found if searching for "default assist" is somewhere else, I think somewhere in Google settings as the background color changes to a lighter one.

Hello, is this still possible with the new Android 11 update? I just tried the op_gesture_button_side_enabled and it only sort of works, I can disable google assistant with adb however swipe up from the bottom side triggers both back and home action now.. Anyone solved this problem?
