Hi,
Recently while using my phone (Zenfone Max Pro M2) I discovered a new hidden feature
When you type "swipe" in the search bar in settings app there appears an option called 'Swipe fingerprint'
However on clicking in nothing but a blank page shows up.
Does that mean this phone was supposed to have fingerprint gestures?
Or it still has and we just need to unlock it somehow
The phone is currently in Pie build with latest Sec Patch.
Please post your observations
There doesn't seem to be a native support for fp gestures but you can try some app from Play Store. Single tap works but swipe sometimes.

idk how many have observed this, but any kind of authentication from the bellow is disabled if you use a third party app / widget to lock your device :
Fingerprint | Trusted Face | Trusted Voice
I have tried using multiple apps / widgets that will turn off my screen or lock the device and added it as a gesture to my nova launcher's double tap gesture. so that i get double tap to lock screen on homescreen...
But this disables fp. I read somewhere that a tasker plugin can be used ...i tried it when i was on cm13 but that plugin actually enters the pin for you after you lock. meaning you lose security.
using the "turn off screen" option in buttons does keep the fp enabled. So ive currently kept long press back button to lock...and fp works... but this option isn't available through any settings shortcut or any other way...
So, if anyone finds any solution please let me know!
Thankyou!
Hello,
Is there any mods for locking / turning off the screen of K4 note by holding the FP Sensor? I've seen such mods in Mi devices and wondering if its possible for K4 Note also....

Install "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock" and "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ztc1997.fingerprint2sleep" this apps. Open Fingerprint Quick Action app and enable. Select single tap action and select Launc app or shortcut. Tap Single tap app or shortcut and select Screen Off app. Now tap your fp sensor and activate Screen Off And Lock device administrator. Everyting is ok.
Hi,
I recently bought a Eonon GA9298B and installed it in a 2010 mazda 6.
Android 8 is installed on it.
I'm trying to split screen, and I cannot do it, which I don't really anderstand, because this functionnality has been added with android 7 (I think)
I installed an app to force the option "split screen" to appear in the accessibility settings pannel
==> Is there a way to access to it without scheating with an app ?
When I do it, and try to aplit screen, it says that the application is not compatible.
I installed n app to access developper mode and force apps to resize
==> Is there a way to activate developper mode ? (7 tps on build version doesn't work)
This didn't work at all....
So, I've installed an app to launch two apps on the screen, side by side. But, when I click to "create shortcut", nothing can be adding to the desktop...
==> Do you have an idea about why is it not permitted ? How can I bypass this problem ?
Hoping I am clear enough ...
Thanks a lot
So when you long press on the 'previous apps' button at the top of the screen, nothing happens? It's the icon that looks like two overlapping rectangles (usually).

No, it doesn't do anything...
The thing is that I have no option to activate this feature in the settings.
I tried to use the Split Screen Shortcut app to be able to activate it. Then, when I long press the "previous apps" button, it says that the application does not support split screen...
I followed a video to force the support via the developer settings to force the apps to be resizable.
Here too, I had to use a developer shorcut app because I cannot find how to enable the developer settings on this device...
Attached is a screenshot from two years old phone (Huawei Mate 9), also with Android 9 - showing four options for Google Smart (un)lock.
Newest MIUI 11.0.3.0 Global provides only one option, unlocking based on the recognized Bluetooth device (second screenshot)
Do EU MIUI ROMs properly support Smart (un)lock, particularly unlocking based on trusted/home location?
In fact, I have received notification, while I was at home, do I want to turn on Smart (un)lock at Trusted places.
So I opened, and confirmed my home location - but after that it still doesn't work, I have to unlock by finger (or face or pin), it doesn't unlock just on swipe when at home (and there is nowhere a setting for Smart unlock at Trusted places, that I can double-check if home location was correctly saved)
Even more confusing, in the morning there was again Smart (un)lock notification, telling that phone was locked after 4 hours of inactivity
So kind of, Smart unlock is (partially) in the ROM, but without settings and not working - probably Xiaomi did not properly remove it when leaving only Unlock with Bluetooth device option

I finally got the Smart Lock working on my Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE with Xiaomi.eu MIUI 13/A12 with Magisk v25, Zygisk-LSPosed and CustoMIUIzer for MIUI 13:

It works for me with my home WiFi and (not a Xiaomi) BT speaker
Note: Please don't tell us how easy it is to change launchers in default apps, that has not been possible since EMUI 9 for chinese roms, see > https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...i-9-removes-default-launcher-options-t3853441
WARNING:RECENT APPS MENU WILL STOP WORKING
All credits to Web1n on Github for figuring out this method.
Here is official guide in chinese
App download on Google Play
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=web1n.stopapp&hl=zh
Steps:
(Note that this method needs to be repeated every restart)
- Install the custom launcher of your choice and ensure it is the only launcher installed other than Huawei home
- Install and setup adb on your computer
- Enable developer options on your phone
- Turn on adb debugging and adb in charge only mode
- Make sure your device is on usb charge only mode
- Install the app from link above
(note i am using a Samsung for screenshots as I don't want to mess up my main Huawei, but I got it working there through the same steps)

Tap second tab to look for system apps, find the app huawei home
https://imgur.com/a/3GgZfSA
Return to this screen, you will see the Huawei home icon, ensure it is greyed out, tap it if it is not so.
Done! Gesture navigation will no longer work but an app like fluid gestures work well enough, enable 3 button navigation in options and tap home to enjoy your new launcher. Your multotasking button has also just become useless...
Again, all credits goes to the developer

unfortunately yes, huawei even went to the step of removing old vertical overview menu so that the only overview menu in these buklds comes from the launcher
Recent apps stopped working for me when I updated to EMUI 10 then downgraded because of this and now it works on EMUI 9. Thanks for this, was going mad for 3 days because I couldn't disable the stock launcher even though my phone is rooted.
For those now missing Recents : Swiftly is a circular gesture activated app launcher with its own Recents :laugh:
I now have "Tap for Recents"
You can place Swiftly with a surface area (over where the middle icon would be on the dock) for activation on the bottom center. You can then tap or tap-hold for recents.
Make sure the middle position there on the dock is empty, so it doesn't have an app icon or folder. Make the rectangle big enough to activate Swiftly, but small enough not to overlap with selecting the input field of WhatsApp, Messenger, ...
In my Nova 5T I also lost swipe up for home (anyone else?) When I uninstalled the default launcher. So I use Fluid Natural Gestures for all of the bottom to swipe up for home.
The two overlay areas of these apps overlap but for me don't interfere with each other. You can also enable "immediate activation" in both for nice swift operation.
(I could choose between Nova and Default Launcher in Emui 10, I'm in Europe. But removed default because regularly it would switch back to Default Launcher)
Update: has stopped working
Feel free to still try as it seems to be different builds for everybody
