PSA/Guide - How to set custom tones in Gmail, hide "running in background.."
The solution is not my own, I found a post where someone tried to hide a running process notification. But it gave me an idea. And boy, was I correct.
So, what's the fuss about?
Apparently, Huawei's skin (EMUI) loves to not only change how Android works, but it also hides some functions. Such function is custom notification tones for accounts in Gmail. And the option to hide "running in the background" notification.
How do you get this function back?
- Use an activity launcher, or a custom Launcher like Nova.
- Open "Settings", and look for "App notifcations" (".Settings$NotificationAppListActivity").
This will grant you ALL the options you might be missing from pure AOSP/Android.
- tested and confirmed on EMUI 8.1 (GPU Boost update)
How to set Gmail tones?
1) Open Gmail from the new Activity
2) Tap your account you want to modify
3) ???
4) Profit
How to hide running...
1) Tap top-left "..."
2) Show system processes
3) find Android System
4) ???
5) Profit!
What? Sorry but your instructions are as clear as mud.
Hoo boy, I was going to write a guide explaining how to access notification importance and the Do Not Disturb override from EMUI. When I wrote the title, XDA found this thread as similar.
If you're on EMUI and you're looking desperately for how to set an app's notification importance (urgent, high, normal or low), and set it to override do not disturb settings, follow the steps in the OP! If you need a specific activity launcher, you can download Activity Launcher from Google Play (unfortunately I didn't find the app on APK Mirror).
Thnx for the tip!!
Download App Shortcut Maker, search for the activity needed and create a shortcut.
Rooted devices:
Device is HD capable notification can easily be removed with this app-
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aboutmycode.NotificationsOff
Untick the app org.codeaurora.ims
That's it.
Non-rooted devices:
1) Go to Application & Notification section in settings.
2) From the right menu, select " Show System" option to display system apps.
3) Find 'org.codeaurora.ims' and force stop it.
That's it.
P.S - Not permanent solution for non-rooted devices, the notification will reappear on Reboot. Sometimes also get triggered by VPN.
Hi,
The following are few tricks for unrooted stock miui 12. These are somewhat basics and possibly known methods. Please feel free to share your thoughts or share something that hasn't been included.
1. Double tap lock screen on third party launcher
- Install OneKeyLockScreen-signed from https://drive.google.com/file/d/15kfzoSnz6WOSh8KD2LTNT297nEfOPexd/view?usp=drivesdk This is not my work so credits to OP / dev.
- Grant necessary permission
- Set double tap gesture on launcher settings
- Screen will be locked instantly, no 10 seconds waiting time nonsense. Fingerprint unlock works.
You can also use "Button shortcuts" in Settings to turn off (and lock) screen using long press
2. Add media / volume control on quick ball
- Install Media Volume Control from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.krdevteam.mediavolumecontrol
- Open Quick Ball settings
- Replace one of current shortcuts with "App"
- Select (Media) Volume Control
3. If Quick Ball isn't your cup of tea, you can use "Shortcutter" or "Tiles" to add available shortcuts to quick settings tiles.
4. Add Accessibility Menu to nav bar, as an alternative to Quick Ball
- Go to "Accessibility"
- Turn on "Accessibility Menu"
- It will show up on bottom right corner, comprises of a handful shortcuts including volume panel, toggles etc
- The downside is, it's not one-hand operation friendly.
- On the other hand, if you use Control Center with third party launcher, selecting 'Toggles' will show Control Center.
This particularly useful since swipe down gesture on the right side of home screen will show notifications i/o CC
5. User friendly debloat tool with GUI (executable JAR), credits to dev

Thnaks man! I love the 3rd one! I was looking for it the first time i got pro!
Note: app compatible with any phone with 1080x2400 screen or lower. Probably higher too, try it. Also it's impossible to make such block when talking in messengers (more precisely, it's difficult). App won't work without gapps, rare case.
Instead of classic reliable optical sensor we have sucky ultrasonic one.
Sometimes it does not turn off the screen while phone call and something is pressed with ear or cheek up to dropping call.
Popular workaround is app "Call Proximity Sensor Fix" which automatically turns off the screen. Or you can press the power button immediately after the answer.
But IMHO this is inconvenient because if you need to look at something on the screen it will not turn on by itself which is so familiar.
My simple application makes screen insensitive to taps. And unlike analogs soft buttons and status bar are blocked too (but not gestures).
On screen will be translucent button that disables lock if you need to use the phone:
– Long tap on button - unlock (button will turn green)
– Short tap when unlocked - lock again
– Long tap when unlocked - remove button at all so as not to interfere with e.g. for entering text
When second call comes in screen will automatically unlock so you can easily answer or hang up. Then it blocks again.
When manually launching the application there will be a question whether to enable 4 seconds delay for an outgoing call. So you able to choose SIM card.
Made by powerful Tasker, the project was exported as standalone application via App Factory. Implemented via scenes with new full-screen blocking type.
Location of button adapted for default AOSP / Google Dialer. It can be misplaced for third-party dialers and / or interface scale. It's impossible to cover all possible variants. So if it really bothers you, install Tasker and project below. Then change coordinates of the buttons.
Installation
Follow manual carefully, otherwise nothing will work.
Application is safe and doesn't have internet access.
1. Download APK below this post
2. Install it via file manager and launch
3. Answer the question about delay, decision can be changed later by launching app again
4. Open Settings > Apps & Notifications > In-Call Screen Lock
5. In "Notifications" turn off them all completely, otherwise they will be annoy you
6. In "Permissions" enable everything: Contacts, Call List and Phone
7. MIUI: right there in application settings enable "Autostart"
8. MIUI: and in "Background" select "No restrictions"
9. Custom: Settings > Apps & Notifications > Advanced > Special app access > Battery optimization > All apps > In-Call Screen Lock > Don't optimize
10. Custom: Settings > Apps & Notifications > Advanced > Special app access > Display over other apps > In-Call Screen Lock > Allow display over other apps
11. MIUI: Settings > Privacy > Management > Special app access > Display over other apps > In-Call Screen Lock > Allow display over other apps
12. Settings > [MIUI: Advanced settings] > Accessibility > In-Call Screen Lock > enable "Use In-Call Screen Lock"
If you using Tasker
1. Download ZIP archive below this post
2. Extract file from it to phone/Tasker/projects
3. Tap on "House" icon at the bottom > Import Project > In-Call_Screen_Lock
4. If you don't need a delay on an outgoing call: delete / disable action #3 ("Wait") from the "In-Call Lock Start" task
5. Custom: Settings > Apps & Notifications > Advanced > Special app access > Display over other apps > Tasker > Allow display over other apps
6. MIUI: Settings > Privacy > Management > Special app access > Display over other apps > Tasker > Allow display over other apps
7. Settings > [MIUI: Advanced settings] > Accessibility > Tasker > enable "Use Tasker"
UPD: files updated, fixed small bug.

No.
Tested now on my RN10-pro... works just fine! Thank you!
Tested without gapps and it didn't work. I use the standard phone app from Arrow OS. I do all settings from your instruction.
There was no 4 seconds query of the sim card. The and no lock screen button.

Unfortunately, APK's exported by Tasker always have dependencies from GMS no matter actions it should perform. Sorry, I can't fix that.
I reinstal Arrow with Gapps and Install tasker. IT works great! Thx a lot! Now ist this Phone uesable.
Great application. Tested it via Tasker and works. Thank you so much!
Small question, if you do use the power button while in call to lock the screen and you unlock it again and then use your unlock button, it unlocks but the button disappears so you can't lock it again. How do I get the button back then?
Note: sensors are automatically calibrated and sometimes this creates a problem.
To cleanup and recalibrate the sensors, all you need to do is this:
Bash:
# dd if=/dev/block/by-name/persistbak of=/dev/block/by-name/persist conv=notrunc
For me that solved everything on official MIUI V13.0.12.0 (and previously on V12.5.9.0).

That's strange. I tested as you wrote and button visible, nothing in profile logic should block its appearing. I used clean Android 11 and AOSP dialer.
As possible workaround please test this: Tasker > tab "Scenes" > Lock On > tap on lock icon > tab "Long tap" > action "Show Scene" > tick "Block Overlay+"

That's legit for classic sensor, but I'm doubt, that ultrasonic store its calibration data there (if even have it). "Sensor" unreliable just by design.

Thanks for the information. Tested it and ticking the block overlay + fixes the issue. I guess it's because even though I'm able to tap the icon and other call icons the phone is still locked. I guess the overlay + makes sure that the lock off scene is still visible on the "lock" screen. I'm on Samsung One UI 4.1 with the native Google dialer.
Thanks for the help.

ultrasonic sensor can be even manually calibrated and the calibration is indeed stored and used.
Also: the ultrasonic sensor works in software, relying also on the position and angle of the phone.
If that measurement fails or is inaccurate, everything is ruined.
Trust me: try to do a fastboot flash of V13.0.12.0 then reset that partition as I said.
Then you can tell me if it improves or not.
For me now it works perfect both in DUO both in the stock dialer and messenger.
