Disable Digital Balance - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi,
How is it possible to disable the new Emui 9 feature "Digital Balance"?
For some people i know it can be very important, but honestly i don't like my application usage being analised, tracked and displayed.
Already searched everywhere but with no success.
Cheers,

Here you can disable it. That toggle turn it off

But there are still Trackings.
How can ich disable Tracking-Schutz?

Someone knows?
What is the module, the. apk, for Digital Balance? I want disable-it whith ADB why the process is running in background and i dont want that. Thank you

Thank you so much! Go test it Yes, works! Fine!

If you download Link2SD from the appstore you can see the name off every app on your Phone. Goodluck

:good:

Apps-->Apps(again)-->More(the three dots in the top right corner)-->Special access-->Access to user information-->More(again)-->Show system processes-->Digital balance. And then you just turn it off
This is my translation from norwegian, so the words might be a bit different on your device. Still hope this helps tho

Hi, I just got the app but it doesn't show anything to do with turning it off. Does it only work if it is on your own phone and not on the screen time classed as your child's phone.
Does it only work on the P20 Pro because I have the P20.
Thanks.

no possible disable ???? no works here

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.parentcontrol
Via adb and you're done.

[Guide] Switch from Hiboard to Google Feed...Hide NFC& Alarm Clock icons

My device is Mate 20 Australia variant. The following guide helps customise your phone without root.
[Guide to change from Hiboard to Google feed]
Australian variant comes with Hiboard installed. Unfortunately, there is no news feed option like other region. I switched from Hiboard to Google feed by:
Prerequitesite:
1. Android Platform tool
2. Hisuit fro ADB DRIVER
STEPS:
1. Enable Developer Option and ADB debuging on your phone.
2. Connect the phone to computer.
3. Test connection between phone and PC
Code:
$adb devices
4. Remote shell into the device
Code:
$adb shell
5. Uninstall Hiboard and associate package (this can be undone please check reference for more details)
Code:
$pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.intelligent
$pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.tips
$pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.music
$exit
5. disconnect the phone from PC and reboot
6. You will see option Google feed instead of Hiboard on your home setting.
To undone:
Code:
$adb devices
$adb shell
$cmd package install-existing com.huawei.intelligent
$cmd package install-existing com.huawei.tips
$exit
[Guide to hide NFC and alarm icons]
NFC functionality can be turned on all time as it does consume very little power. However, for mate 20 which has status bar space taken by the notch, the NFC icon will keep annoying all the time. The same problem with alarm clock. Here is how to get rid of these unwanted icons.
Prerequitsite:
See guide above
STEPS:
1. Install this app from playstore
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ystemuituner&rdid=com.zacharee1.systemuituner
2. Grant permission to the app using adb commands
Code:
$adb devices
$adb shell
$pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
$pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS
$pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.DUMP
$exit
3. Open the app and hide NFC / Alarm / Whatever icon you want to hide
4. Reboot the phone and test if the icons have been hiden
5. You might uninstall the app and reboot. The effect will still persist. Please consider donating the developer if it is useful.
Enjoy!
Give me thumb up if you find it is useful.

Hi, you were right. Disabling it is much easier.
So far, I found that Huawei OS does not contain too much bloatware. Also, thanks for the big battery, debloating is not crucial for this model, in my opinion.
I am waiting for the upcoming EMUI 9.1, hoping they will be even faster and much more convenient to use.
@jskasia Thank you very much. I managed to follow the steps and get google feed on the left of my screen. It worked like a charm on my Huawei P30 . Great stuff!!!
Just want to thank OP for this guide, AWESOME!

Sorry, I'm new here. But is the "HiSuit for ADB driver" Hisuit itself or something else? I'm trying to get the google feed in my Mate20 pro.
It used to work on magic 2.1( emui 9) but now, with magic 3(emui 20) it's not longer work.
Any suggestions?
Would this also work for Mate 30 Pro Global?

[SOLVED] How to remove setting suggestions?

I dont know what I did wrong but I cannot disable those annoying suggestions in settings.
I have another 2 devices with Android 10 as well, they either have a three dots option to dismiss them or have a cross button for fast dismiss.
View attachment 4951613
And more important thing is, the suggestions have minor delays after open the setting app. You will easily click the wrong options after they pop up.

It's a bug of the device. I suppose it'll be fixed in the next update. Now it's nearly impossible to disable them

It's ROM dependent.
Either someone implemented a possibility to disable them, or noone did and you can't.
And there are many great ROMs out there for our device. For me there's no reason to stick to one and complain about it.

Ikr, but it's Android one device, the official rom should not be compared with 3rd party builds.
I mean not this kind of stupidity.

it's easy. go to apps in settings, show all apps, show system (dots menu top right), search for settings suggestions, goto storage for it and clear all data.
will come back after a while but just repeat the process.
If you are root, you can disable / freeze.
Well, after few tests, I can safe to say
Freeze 'setting suggestion' app is the right option you can use without a computer, however it requires root.
If you don't have root, use adb pm uninstall --user 0 to debloat it.
Clean storage and cache of that app cannot solve it permanently. It almost pop up again right after you back to the main page.
Still, it leaves a large blank space there. But ui looks stable now

Any way to force enable 90Hz?

Hello
I recently got a Realme X2 Pro and I am very happy with it.
However, I have an issue with the screen 90Hz setting. I use Samsung internet browser and I can't get it to use the 90Hz setting, with the UFO test I get 60Hz, I tried other browsers (Brave, Chrome beta, etc) and all of them are in 60Hz mode. Only Chrome gets the 90Hz mode correctly.
I checked the 90Hz setting and they are enabled in the app list.
I am wondering if there is a way to force enable 90Hz as it's possible on the OnePlus 7 Pro (via ADB command)
Many thanks for any support
I don't think so, as despite it being a 90Hz panel Realme have put a severe limit on it; they do not enable it on any game which was a bit of a disappointment

Thank you. I hope realme adds a option to force enable 90Hz in all cases or some hack like the one on OnePlus is found.
I enjoy 90Hz but it not working on one of the most used apps (browser) is a bummer.

There are a few browsers that support 90hz like Chrome and Opera, sadly my most used one Kiwi doesn't.

Minecraft and the Chinese pubgm work in 90hz so it's not all games... I don't think this is Realme blocking them but the game developers.

With the Samsung browser, 90Hz only works on the settings screen :laugh: but not on webpages, in which it switches back to 60Hz. Opera does indeed use it on webpages, but its scrolling is so laggy that it's difficult to notice it LOL, while the Samsung browser has the smoothest scrolling and it would benefit the most.
Any other app also seems to use 90Hz, but it seems Asphalt 9 doesn't.
I am curious if the Android 10 update will change something, as I can't try the betas.

Then I hope some command or hack to always enable 90Hz as it's possible on OnePlus, surfaces (I tried it for the lulz but it returns an error)
It's a shame that one of the apps I use most can't benefit from 90Hz
I have a trick.
1) Use any app that runs at 90Hz
2) Launch It in split Windows Mode
3) Now launch Samsung Browser in the botton of the splitwindow (as the second app)
4) Now move the split line up yo asign more space to Samsung Browser.
5) Now move totally Up the split line, making Samsung Browser the only app visible...and voila!!! It is running at 90Hz.
The process is quick as soon you make rutine...but the problem is you need to do several time (each time you change the application).

OnePlus has a hidden option to force 90hz and that's how the hack enables... Not sure our device will have any hidden settings to enable this.

This uses pretty much the same method the OnePlus 7t but for the S20 ultra... I don't have access to ADB at the minute.
If anyone with ADB would like to test and use these commands?
adb shell settings put secure refresh_rate_mode 0
adb shell settings put secure refresh_rate_mode 1
adb shell settings put secure refresh_rate_mode 2
Might need the global tag
adb shell settings put global screen_refresh_rate 0
adb shell settings put global screen_refresh_rate 1
adb shell settings put global screen_refresh_rate 2

Question Disable Google home news (left swipe home screen)

I don,t know how to really call it, but how to disable the Google news feed on the swipe left home?
Another problem is sending a contact shortcut to the homescreen. it says its already there bu its not.

If you do not like the UI change it or get rid of the mobile. For you it is horrible but for most of users not. It is a matter of taste.
Good luck with it.

Thx, very helpful
use a third party launcher to get rid of google page (lawnchair launcher 2,nova launcher)
and make sure you haven't locked homescreen when adding contact shortcut
I accidentally found a way to remove the Google feed.
I tried installing 'Breeno feed' from APK mirror. The phone required rebooting before it appeared on the left of my homescreen.
Most of the features didn't work properly, probably due to my phone being from the UK. So I uninstalled it (on app menu shows as 'Quick Glance').
After uninstalling it, Google feed no longer appears on my home screen, in fact I can't swipe left at all now
It stayed gone after a reboot and hopefully won't cause any issues.
Just thought I'd share this info and hope it can help someone.
After another reboot today Google feed reappeared..
So I just quickly repeated the steps and it's gone again. I guess it doesn't remain after a reboot.
Hi I've upgraded to this phone today from my find X2 pro and I saw this thread so I extracted the Smart Assistant apk from the find x2 installed it on the find x3 and it works fine but you only get weather, calendar and step counter features with my apk I've attached below if any of you want it.
Edit: there's a bug with weather not updating but otherwise it's better than having google on it I guess
Install apk and reboot.

There is another solution for disabling it completely which was shared by wedaxi on reddit:
Hello, maybe it's late to leave an answer but this is how I removed the google feed completely from the home screen.
You need to enable developer tools on your phone: https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/dev-options
Download Android Studio on your computer (this is the easiest way to install adb wich you will need, but you can search how to install adb independently)
Connect your phone to the computer with usb cable (you can also connect the phone wirelessly but the cable is the easiest method https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb)
Once you are connected use this command from the computer console to disable google feed app
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
This only disables the app, it does not uninstall it, to do that you probably need to root the phone and I just don't recommend it.
I'm sorry if this method is not the easiest, this is what I did after not finding any other solution and It works.
However the Goolge-App and Lens won't work afterwards!
Hey there,
I found a way to "disable" the Google feed without installing another launcher.
If you hide the Google App in the Privacy Settings, when you swipe left, nothing happens. The icon at the bottom which indicates how many pages there are is still visible but honestly it doesn't bother me much.
Hopefully, Oppo will add the option to hide the Google Feed page.
Cheers

OK, thanks but no, my goal is not to install 2 more apps to reorder the parameters menu, but to deactivate the right apps for the menu to hide by itself (if possible, it generally does this because some apps add the menu, so no app, no more menu.)

Hope this helps my guy:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.osp.app.signin
this will remove samsung account functionality almost completely. I suspect you know how to use adb. Just note that some buttons in system apps might break
No, it's already deactivated.

adb shell pm uninstall really uninstall or it's only "marked uninstalled" and reversible?
