Enabling accessibility apps without disabling S4 features

I've tried installing a few apps that require accessibilty services enabled, but when I do this I get a message saying that the new S4 features such as Air Gesture, Air View, Smart Screen, Multi Window etc. will be disabled as Talk Back will need to be enabled.
Apps such as tasker, lightflow etc. needs to turn on accessibility services in order to work.
Any idea of a way around this?

[Q] Quickly toggle between lockscreen security modes?

Is there any way *quickly* toggle between lockscreen security modes without going into settings and re-do it there?
When I'm home, I only want "swipe" security for my lockscreen.
But when I go out, I want to use PIN for my lockscreen.
It would be great if I just toggle a "quick settings" button to select between the two modes.
But, the PIN code would need to STICK. Right now, I have to re-create it every time I switch between the two security options.
Any ideas?
A dashclock extension for this would be cool also.
There isn't something like that, but there IS a widget that is a quick shortcut to your lock screen settings. You'll still have to enter pins and stuff, but you'll save the effort of navigating there. It's the "settings" shortcut which should already come with the phone

How to Access System UI Tuner in EMUI 5.0! (no root)

By default you are unable to access the system UI tuner in emui. With this app (ALL CREDIT TO LEEDROID) you are able to add various shortcuts to your quick settings tiles. One of these is UI tuner, which will bring you to the settings unlike holding the settings cog.
Note that this method is sometimes rather buggy when getting to the menu, and it works best if your settings application is cleared from recent apps.
Just download the app, hit edit in your quick settings, drag the UI tuner to your quick settings and you're set to go.
Don't give up if it won't work on the first press! Clear your recent apps and give it another shot.

I discovered this a while back on the Mate 9, but unfortunately most of the functions don't work so there's really no point to it.
I tested this, but if I'm right, not many of those new settings in System UI tuner work in Honor 8. I did not get Power notification controls to do anything new (no new settings appeared in app notification settings). Similarly turning on Do not disturb mode shortcut seemed to once flash the options in the volume popup, but after that... nothing. The only thing I managed to get to work was to remove icons from status bar.
Or did I do something wrong?

No, you did it correctly. Some of the settings may not work properly due to the EMUI skin. The issues you listed are probably why honor had it hidden in the first place. But there are still some useful settings in there.
There is simpler method to do that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gm8PEYKrjrw
However SystemUI is very limited, nothing useful to do

Quick settings misbehaving

Hello, today I noticed that small quick settings (tiles in 1 row) doesn't work properly:
1) Tiles are invisible - I just see white background although they are working when I tap on white space.
2) Small quick settings are interfering with larger quick settings menu - when I try to tap on brightness slider, I often tap on invisible tile from small quick settings.
Restarting phone and resetting quick settings does nothing.
Can somebody tell me how can I fix it? I hope my problem is understandable.
Have you installed any substratum theme with a white overlay? I suspect it.

I haven't.
Nova Launcher is the only app that I'm using to customize my Android but it shouldn't affect quick settings. I changed the launcher to default (Launcher3) to make sure - the problem is still there.

Lemfo lem 5 pro air gesture problem

Hello dears . I bough this watch 5 months ago and in the catalog and on the official web site they claims that the watch have an air gesture wake up feature . I tried to search my watch for that option but i didn't find any thing related . Can any watch owner help here
Usually the settings for the palm brightness is in the launcher settings. So drag the screen down for the top and swipe right. You should see all the wifi / bt settings etc and in these settings there will be a icon for hand bright screen on and off. Toggle this on and see if it works. Failing that, you could download the Universal Launcher from the Playstore and do the same with that.
You could also download a sensor app, that will display your sensor information in real time - just to check that your accelerometer is working correctly. I think the app is called Sensoroid.
Thanks alot
