Issues with some apps and the notch

Hey all,
I've had my Mi8 Global edition (currently running 10.0.3 global stable) for about a month now and I've noticed an issue on Facebook Messenger where the app loads weirdly (see 1st screenshot) and then after about a second or 2 it corrects itself. Is there any fix for this? I tried going into the screen settings and making Messenger not a full screen app but the option is locked. I also tried hiding the notch and this did nothing as well...
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Also, on my AOD (Always on Display) only certain apps notifications appear, is there a fix for this yet on the Global stable rom? AND is there a way to make app icon notifications appear on the status bar if you do not have the Chinese Version?
Thanks all!

Jesus, how I hate it!!! And Google knows nothing about this behavior...

Yeah so far it's only Facebook messenger that does it and I've realised it's when you get the "xxxx xxxx is now active" notifications that appear in the spot where the status bar is supposed to be. Has no one figured out how to fix it?

You could always lower the dpi of the screen to something below 480.
AOD is a common issue which is miui issue and I don't think there's a work around.
The icons situation won't be available until android pie of miui10 is released. You'll need to wait till end of 2018 or beginning of 2019.

PIE update - Mate 10 Pro - LIST OF PROBLEMS / ISSUE'S

Like the Subject title reads, can we start a list of all the known errors discovered in the Android Pie update, for the Mate 10 series phones?
:highfive:This will be a great thread to see if it is worth upgrading to Pie, for us still stuck on Oreo.

I have found 2 issues so far
1. recents doesn't play well with 3rd party launchers(workaround is to disable emui launcher trough adb)
2. Navbar has delay for 1 sec after adapting to colour of opened apps when using 3rd party launcher
Had some few glitches like gps icon stayed turned on while nothing was using gps and gpu turbo floating icon stayed on after exiting game.

Apparantly the new Gallery App is also not that great:
"The new photo gallery is a crap ,, whats the point of creating a new allbum called all photos ??
I miss the old one ,,,
And the worst thing is the new signal bars on the left with notifications !! What the heck is huawei thinking ?? We don't have a notch ,, this new emui is bs update"

As mentioned, Nova also buggy:
"So far, nova launcher is buggy, especially animations, and the previously working google cam port stopped working"
&
"Nova working fine here with the exception of recents and gestures. "

And also uses more RAM than on EMUI 8 / Oreo:
"EMUI 9 is soooo ram hungry. Dropping below a gig here from light use and everything is refreshing. "

Well dont know about ram. Its same for me as before
atm while doing nothing its sitting at 3gb just like in oreo.

Only problem I have noticed is that's sometimes apps just went to recent by itself... usually when I'm typing - chatting. But it's overall fast to go back , sometimes it's annoying. For me ram management is ok, just like in oreo. Few graphic glitches here and there.

Navbar is too sensitive. I usually hit Home now when I'm hitting Space.
And/or big thumbs.

Maybe that's the reason, I hope that they will fix it soon :fingers-crossed:

I think in oreo there was like 1 second delay when pressing on screen and then trying to press navbar. it woudnt allow you to do that right away.

I'm getting the strong impression the Pie update, for the Mate 10 series, needs some more fine tuning. Maybe, with some updates it'll get better.
Let's get those bugs listed guys! :highfive:

Don't see a difference with the "super macro" mode in new camera software

MATE 10. The recent apps screen is ****, if you hit the one app that's halfway hidden on the side you just get dumped back to where you were without opening that app.
The camera app in my mate 10 eats up literally 600MB of RAM wtf? Also RAM usage in general is higher almost than EMUI 8 on the Mate 10, where I had 2.2GB free most of the timein 8.0, now the usual is 1.8GB, so that's 400MB more of RAM used for EMUI 9.

Yup, I also had this problem - it does bug me, typing a message and kept clicking home. I changed the nav bar to be hidden and use gestures now (swipe up for home, swipe left / right for back, swipe up and hold for task manager). This works for me!
Couple of other things I've noticed - takes a while to archive a gmail email in the notifications - there's a delay which wasn't there before.
Ran a AnTuTu benchmark - previously it was around 200,000 - its now reporting about 160,000 but apart from the gmail delay (above) the phone still feels snappy! I then saw the performance setting (under battery) and switched this on to re-benchmark - got around 210,000 this time.
I've switched performance mode back off for now.

It should have been obvious I guess! When I switch the performance mode on clearing these notifications is much quicker - this is the only thing I have really noticed in terms of speed with / without performance mode in the first couple of days.

Can you describe what is the problem?
So far it works good on my phone. I have installed MicroG first and then YouTube Vanced. There is additional Google entry in the accounts list for MicroG.

No more force LTE Only option, although you have tweak it before the update using System Editor. Hmmm...

Very large pull down / notification menu after update to Android 9.0 / EMUI 9

Hey guys,
I am using the default OS that comes with the Huawei P10, and my phone is not rooted.
After the update to Android 9.0 with EMUI9 the pull down menu (quick menu from notification bar) is unbearable large. It seems like there are different DPI settings for the pull down menu only.
I actually can not stand the large icons, so normally I change to DPI 430 and/or change the size of text/display in the display settings.
However, it seems this does not have any impact anymore on the pull down menu.
Does anyone experience the same and has any idea how to fix this?
Markus

It is same for me and unfortunately it is default setting. I didn't try to modify anything with root yet but i seriously doubt that it is even possible to do something like that.

Same here. The dpi wont stick. I hope its just a bug. Not some crappy implementation from huawei.

One UI 2.0

I got the Android 10 update today, and i'm not going to lie:
I'm kinda disappointed.
The few new features and some of the changes to the UI are not good enough to make me ignore some very annoying things.
First of all, i don't understand how the notifications are handled now.
For some reason the spotify playback notification is constantly hidden, no matter how i change the settings.
The recents menu also behaves weirdly, it feels very flimsy.
I'm not sure if this is a change, or something i configured before, but the clock being on the left of the notification bar is also very annoying.

same. Also, the swipe from home to recents to switch between apps does not work now...

Received the Update in India just an hr ago

Same as Android 10 , Minor changes. I don't think Samsung will be changing UI stuff, I just love OneUI as it is, it's my own opinion. It's true that some things have changed since Pie release but i think we will get used to it.

Are there any vids on what exactly has changed compared to previous beta's?

As for your clock you probably had good lock installed and had modified the clock position. Default is left side.

I'm in the same boat as these poor folk, and I'm stock ROM...

General Miui Global 12.5.1 Stable ROM - Likes & Issues

Hi ya'll,
I'm coming from Miui 12.0.5 Global on a RN8PRO and I have to say this OS is a downgrade but the phone itself is an upgrade. If anyone knows how to fix this or if they get an update which changes this before I do, please let me know.
Issues they changed, which wiegh highly on how it functions:
Silent/DND: I can only setup one schedule which sucks cause I like to have my phone turn on at a different time on the weekends
Individual App Notification Sounds: I was able to go into App Info > Notifications > Sound and change what sound file it plays but apparently not all apps are capable of doing this and I checked to see if the app is the same version, and they are on the RN8PRO vs RN10PRO
Likes:
Smart devices on the pull down menu
Better auto brightness on the RN10PRO but might be due to the AMOLED vs the IPS screen
Integration of the Google Page if you swipe to the right of the home screeen
Fingerprint scanner on the power button vs the back on the RN8PRO
I'll continue to update as I use more and figured it out...

I've noticed that 12.5.3 is out... anyone receive it yet?

Hi! How is version 12.5.2 working? I've read many comments about bugs on 12.5.0~12.5.1, but I would like to know if you feel 12.5.2 is an improvement over those.

nothing improvement, gallery bug and some bugs, wroste update

Miui 12.5.4 arrived yesterday on my Redmi Note 10 Pro (global).
So far pretty good, but I've noticed a couple of bugs.
The wallpaper zooms in for some reason and there's no way to fix it. I ended creating a larger wallpaper with a blank border to avoid it. It may be related to brightness adjustments.
If you disable one of the SIM cards, it still show up in the status bar (before the update, it didn't).

this bugged update . music player notification problem . long delays in browsing through storage . messaging apps like telegram notifications not showing message notifications . mxplayer crashing while playing video . zip and rar files not extracting in file explorer(default one) . and much more problems . notifications are nice though .

After updating to 12.5.4 it just became worse the whole system as a whole... I unlocked the bootloader and went back to 12.0.15 which is much less laggy and works great for my needs.

Hello on 12.5.3, i can't change wallpaper on launcher and lock screen. I Can chose, but itis appears black. Someone have this problème ?
