Dear,
Under MM, if you want to use Google Launcher instead of the welcome Huawei, or Huawei Launcher, download Launcher Google Now and go to applications, and parameters and finally advances parameters and application use by default, and pitch Google Apps, and enjoy the result.

Did you manage to get the App icons uncluttered like in stock android with Google now launcher?
I still have these ugly borders and backgrounds... Even if I use the purev3.hwt theme. It only works on huawei launcher..

I'm running Google Now Launcher, and no, I'm stuck with the hideous icons, too. As much as I like the customization option on the P8lite, it'd would've been nice to have the option to use default app icons (as in, the icons that apps show on their play store page).
Does everyone else has black background under the on-screen buttons and notification bar doesn't blend with the whole launcher? I mean app is not immersive (fullscreen)

If you want to easily change icons install luncher that supports it. Nova is one of the best
Thanks

Can confirm, this is EXACTLY what I was looking for!
Thanks for the recommendation, I'm now wondering why I didn't use Nova Launcher sooner!

Edit the OP than with the recommendation changed from Google Now launcher to Nova.
Nova is great especially if you want a really good stock android experience. Settings are limitless and probably one of the best launchers out there

I'm not the OP of the thread, merely another P8lite use who was using Google Now Launcher.
Anybody know how to set different launcher as default. EMUI doesnt seem to allow you to change default.

on android MM go to settings ->Apps ->advanced(the little gear bellow) -> default app settings-> launcher
Didn't see the solution
on my smartphone google launcher works without any problem, set as default. It need to be set manually in settings, but then it is fully working.

You can also use NOVA launcher. the icons there are the stock icons, without the ugly huawei borders ^^

Somebody had success in that?
Thank you!

There's a new update on nova 5.5.1, maybe it can help. it says "Fix FC on huawei devices."
Avoid using any stock widget with it. Nova doesn't like Huawei widgets, or Huawei widgets don't like Nova.
works now with nova 5.5.1

The companion requires a restart of nova after changing settings. It works fine afterwards here
I have the same problem.
Nova keeps crashing.

DON'T add any Huawei stock widgets !!!!! ... It crashes Nova stone dead !!!. I like the Huawei weather widget, but adding it kills Nova (and then you need to uninstall Nova to get it to work again). Adding widgets downloaded from the google play store works fine ... Running mine with Nova quite happily now with a downloaded weather widget and all my custom options.... This must be a free "feature" with EMUI..... woe betide trying to add one of the default Huawei widgets to another launcher....

I had never seen that, I used to install weatherpro windget...I just try now .. it's true Nova crashes, with Apex Launcher Pro it's worst!
Works just fine from day 1. But like everybody mentioned, don't add stock widget. It will automatically revert back to stock launcher. You don't have to uninstall. Just select Nova as default launcher again.

Yes, if you add any stock weather widget on Nova, it will keep crashing untill you uninstall or clan Nova cache.

I have no issue with the full functionality of Nova launcher on my Huawei Mate 10 pro except for the wallpaper. PLs note that I got my phone in Asia. Only issue that I have is that the wallpaper does fill up the screen completely when I tilt it to a horizontal position. It only fills up half of the screen.

Maybe you should try to update nova?
Have you try with animated wallpaper full screen enabled?

Hi, Everyone

Today I'll provide you the latest 8.1 Moto launcher to nougut or 8.0 ,
Works on Nougut ( Official )
Try it out and say bugs...
5 rows in app launcher.
Can someone somehow make it have 5 rows in app launcher? only 4 icons look huge and hideous and waste of space.
Can't swipe right for Google need feed. I tried turning the ticker off and then back on. Also restarted my phone with the ticker off and turning it on once it booted back up.

Hi all.
Wanted to ask if anyone has been able to install other launchers on the P30 series. It's probably the only reason why I'm still holding back from getting this device. EMUI isn't exactly the benchmark to beat when it comes to UI design and functionality, and I've read before that EMUI 9.0 and above broke alternative launchers like Nova Launcher and Hyperion.
Was anyone able to try installing another launcher and successfully set it as the default launcher app? I also remember an issue before that it kept asking you which launcher app you wanted to use whenever you pressed the home button.
Many thanks!

Nova works fine without issues.
Same, also using Nova on my P30. Everything working fine here.

Using Actionlauncher without problems.
Fantastic. That's good news!
Definitely no issue unlike vivo phones which randomly switches back to their stock launchers. In china however, i read that they blocked launcher change on huawei devices. That was on the 9.0 though.
Nova, Lawnchair Alpha and Hyperion all working fine for me, the only launcher I've tried that causes issues is the Poco Launcher.
As per my previous P9 and Honor V10 i use Nova most of the time but sometimes use Microsoft Launcher for a few weeks every now and then to see how it feels.
I always come back to Nova in the end as it has additional options I use.

Yeah they dont allow launcher change for phones in china. This goes to Vivo and Oppo as well. First and foremost, you must install nova. Next, use ADB to remove the stock launcher but a safer option would be using Package Disabler app to disable the stock launcher. Make sure you already have Nova or another launcher installed before doing this.

Only in the chinese version of Huawei smarphone is avoided to install other launchers. In international firmwares is allowed (I tested Nova, Action, Pixel, Launchair... All worked fine).
Use EVIE Lancher much better then nova for me. You can make good things on it.
mine is microsoft launcher, it's best for me so far
Nova on my P30 Pro, works like a charm!
Thanks everyone for your feedback. Absolutely loving my P30 with Hyperion Launcher. ?
Nova works well, but all alternative Launcher have bugs on using Huawei's own Widgets.
For ex. you can't use the Weather Widget properly without crash when adding your town
The clock works only after changing grid to higher size even there is no need to.

Yup these issues have existed since I had my P9.
It's a shame as I would like to use Huawei built in weather widget but it crashes other launchers so I have to have an extra app.

Hi Guys! This is a Magisk module I made to replace the stock Quickstep Launcher in our device with Pixel Launcher.
The module includes:
- Pixel Launcher (replaces Quickstep)
- Styles & Wallpapers (to change Accent Colors, Icon Shapes, Icon Packs, Wallpaper, Grid Size etc.)
- Device Personalization Services (for App Suggestions and "Select" Overview Action)
- Pixel Theme (Pixel Blue Accent Color instead of Teal, Amoled Black Dark Mode instead of Dark Gray, Rounded UI Corners)
- Extra Pixel Exclusive Accent Colors, Icon Packs & Fonts
- Removed Wi-Fi Generation Numbers from Wi-Fi Icon
Hope you guys enjoy!
Notes:
- I give credit to @Typhus_ for customize.sh. Hope he doesn't mind.
Don't mind at all.
Cheers!
OP updated: All apks are taken from the last Pixel 5's Android 11 images.
With los 18.1 is perfect! Good job man
OP updated: I've created two separate modules:
- "New" Nokia Theme
- Pixel Lite Theme

Truth be told, i initially created this theme for personal use only. I really love the stock android experience but that teal accent color, ugly dark mode and squarish ui make the device look really dated (in my personal opinion). So the idea of this theme was to add some polishes to our device while still keeping that lightweight android experience. I really like those few touches nokia adds to their phones and i feel like that's what an AOSP build should look like nowadays. I only added the nokia launcher becauce xiaomi didnt gave us a proper fully functional android 11 launcher3. So i won't be making other themes.

There may also be some interference with trebuchet launcher. Which los rom are you using?
I solved! I was more simply that i thinked... I have disabled yrebuchet, and cleared data of trebuchet and pixel! Now it's perfect. I'm very happy
Edit:a little issue. With dark theme enable, with the black search bar, the font color remain setted to black. Is better set to with. Cheers
