How to change dialer stock picture EMUI 9? - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
I recently updated my p20pro via OTA to EMUI 9. Apart some bugs on multitasking and with camera, one of the things that most bother me are the images set in contacts, which automatically end up on the call dialer (see screenshot). I looked for a way to remove this "function" but I did not find it, and I would like to avoid finding an alternative dialer on the Playstore.
Any solution?
Thanks!

Facebook Messenger Sms/Mms enable missing?

Just got my HTC one, non rooted, stock firmware.
When i downloaded facebook messenger and tried to enable it to hijack sms/mms by going to the options screen, the option to enable it is missing. Funny that it works on my xperia z but not htc one.
Anyone with the same issues? Or did i get a weird set?

anyone?
I happened to find the same thing on one of my phone.
The option is here on my Galaxy Note but not on my Acer Gallant. What's weird is that I have not seen a lot a people talking about this.
SMS settings disappeared after I upgraded from Android 4.0.4 to 4.1.2. Hope they fix it soon. Reported it. If anyone knows how to fix, please tell us. Thanks.
I also have this issue and have been searching for a fix with no result. It is a direct result of an upgrade to a 4.1+ base from 4.0.x. I have tried modifying build prop values to see if facebook messenger was somehow disabling the feature based on android version but have not had any luck. What is curious is if you restore messenger from a backup made on a working ROM/device, it does enable the setting briefly and for a single use. Once the app realizes it's authentication is out of sync with Facebook main it requires you to resync and you will lose the feature again. I have found minimal forum posts about it, I believe some other devices are free from issue on 4.2.x though.

[Q] 4.3, smileys & emoji

Hi,
Not a major problem, but after the update, I have noticed that smileys do not display in messaging as they used to.. now a smiley face is just a " : -)" and not the graphic symbol.
I am presuming that this is due to the introduction of emoji which weren't available before. I have a number of contacts that do have emoji's and thus I presume there is a "translation" problem.
Is there anything that can be done about this?? I have tried a couple of messaging apps but I prefer the stock one if possible.
Anyone else having this issue and can suggest a work around??
Thanks

Facebook Chat Head Shortcut - Not able to create (Android Oreo)

anyone also facing the same issue?
on Nougat i can just create a chat head shortcut from Facebook Messenger
but once i updated to Oreo (CLEAN INSTALL, full wipe and all)
i can no longer create any shortcut
- tried to uninstall/reinstall
- tried to be a part of the beta program
- clear cache/data
still same
any resolution would be great
thanks!
Same issue.
Yep I have the same thing.
Beta or not, still missing.
What launcher y'all using? Does it depend on the launcher? ???
Hi, What I have read, it does not depend on launcher, it depends on the OS it self. Oreo for some reason disabled this feature on lots of apps that can make shortcuts like that.
I've encounter the same thing on messenger but this is what i did (see ss) and it works fine now. I hope that's the same thing you mean.
It's in the settings>apps>messenger and look into advance option.
Warrenforfree I think perhaps you've misunderstood the issue here? Apologies if I am wrong. I think you're response is in regards to chat heads not showing over other apps or at all. However, the issue in question is that on devices running the Oreo OS, you are not able to create a shortcut on the home screen to individual chats, similar to the attached image.

yes you are right
surprisingly even on 8.1.0 its not there
I'll tell you why FB removed it ... Chat list now contains advertisements that FB wants you to see :/ If there is no way of duplicating desktop shortcuts then there is no way of doing it :/
Hello, new here and have been looking for a solution to this for about half a year. I'm not sure that FB wanting you to see their ads is the case. I have multiple devices that still allow me to add shortcuts to the home screen except for my main phone. I use Nova Prime on all of them and I am not able to add them on my LG G7. The option isn't even there yet it is on all my other devices. When I switch back to the default launcher I still cannot add a shortcut. I've done the whole uninstall/reinstall/ clear the cache/data thing. Contacted FB. Using a Nova backup from a previous phone, LG G6 which already had the shortcuts it put those on my screen and those work just fine.

P30 pro tips needed!

Hi guys,
Sooo I'm a new owner of a p30 pro... Coming from a stock experience and root has made me quite confused about a few things and wanted to know if anyone had work arounds.
1. When switching launchers (Nova) gesture animations no longer work. Does anyone have a good launcher that still supports them?
2. HiBoard doesn't get populated with anything other than App use which is really nice but I would enjoy news or anything else to look at.(I saw that on the mate you could replace with google feed, is this possible with p30 pro?)
3. After around 11 my phone no longer receives drop down notifications, I even tried finding the do not disturb settings and nothing seems off.
4. I use google messages for texts and when I send a screenshot its super blurry but on the other end is fine.(Guess it would just be nice to see if it could get fixed but not too much of a problem)
5. Does EMUI not group notifications? When I get a load of texts or snapchats they are listed one by one which is odd because my nexus 6p used to group everything perfectly and neatly.
Other than that this phone has been pretty nice with battery life, just wish the screen was 2k as I edit alot of photos :/
Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place or something but have been doing 2 days of research about these things!
Side note anyone know about eta for EMUI 10?

Cannot send Sms after update to Miui 11.0.1 Android 10

Hi guys,
I hope quarantine life is good
I cannot send Sms messages after the update to Android 10, on Mi9 CC. Receiving them is not a problem.
The carrier message center number is correct.
Has anyone else encountered this?
Is there a way to downgrade just the messages app, or maybe set another app (Fb messenger) as default? I feel like the phone moves faster with Android 10, so I would like to avoid downgrading the entire os. The phone is rooted.
Thank you very much!
Do you have volte enabled? Try disabling it if you do, happened to me a few times, can't remember if on Miui-based or AOSP based ROMs though.
