Android Pie 9.0 default contact picture? - Huawei P10 Questions & Answers

Just updated my p10 to android pie. All is working fine, except the default caller picture which is now a custom pink mountain photo, and it doesnr look good when i receive a call, all looks way to light... Is there a way to remove this and go back to the way it was on 7/8 versions of the OS?

Hello. There are 3 ways to change them:
1. Rollback to Oreo
2. Other dialer app
3. Attaching picture with i.e. Black solid color for every contact
For Huawei it's feature. For me not also.
Regards.

i wonder why they also removed the feature that changes wallpapers automatically

What WE want in the next Community Build! Posted on 10/24/16

We begin with a premise. We are a facebook group that has as its object the OnePlus3 (The group name’s is OnePlus3/3T ITA). We decided to collect our ideas to suggest to you what OnePlus Developer should add to our device to make it perfect.
This is the suggestion list that we hope you will implement. Many of these requests want to be implemented as a possibility of choice. When you buy a OnePlus you want to have more liberty of customization.
HOME CUSTOMIZATION:
1- A better weather application:
- more information (such as Google Now or Windows 10 PC-style)
- a better widget on shelf bar*!
*I now that i can tap on the top to open weather application but it would be nice see a greater integration with more information.
2- Ability to have another swipe from right to left to access to the news of google now (after the shell).
3- Ability to access to the app drawer as the new Pixels Launcher with a swipe from bottom to top.
4- A package of circular icons.
5- Being able to change the display grid of apps in the app drawer and the home.
6- Ability to remove the drawer and leave all apps in the home (such as iOS or Miui).
HARDWARE BUTTON:
7- Ability to set the lateral slider as follows: ringer, vibrate, silent (Also this based on the choice of people. Just put a simple option in the settings).
8- One handed mode with a swipe on central button touch.
CAMERA:
9- Frontal Flash with the use of screen brightness. We need this feature for selfie during night or dark place.
10- Manual mode during video.
11- Ability to record video in HDR mode.
12- Slow Motion with audio.
13- A best correction of the white balance in manual mode with a slider (as LgG4 or LgG5).
OTHER REQUEST:
14- A Toggle for the pocket mode (switch on/off).
15- Enter to the clock app by clicking on the time in the bar of the expanded notifications.
16- Ability to personalize the night mode with different screen temperatures. Like “twilight” app.
18- Quick access to the battery from the notification bar as in the version 3.2.X.
19- Ability to set the background of the app and the notifications bar completely BLACK (not only dark grey. That is not nice).
20- Integration of an energy saving system that would limit the use of the CPU without affecting the application synchronization and data in the background.
Even an "ultra power saving mode" as on Galaxy s6/s7 would be very nice.
21- Ability to zoom the video in the playback phase (as on LgG4 and G5) with a simple "pinch to zoom". This is a COOL FEATURE.
22- Always On function.
All of us in the facebook group OnePlus3/3T ITA want to thank OnePlus and his team for the way they are working on our terminal. We also hope that these requirements listed above will be upheld in positve way.
THANK YOU
P.S: If you (that you're not part of the facebook group) share these ideas, copy them and put them in the last question ("Do you have any advice that we can use to improve the next beta builds? Please describe in detail") of the feedback of CB 3.5.4.
All I want is for oneplus to open up their camera to third party devs... CM14 is better than anything oneplus has been able to offer, but we need a better camera!

This is a trascription of a Carl Pei's interview to XDA's community : "We want to, and we’ve been talking about internally. So there’s a challenge with the camera because if we want a blob, then there are two major challenges. The first one being, the code relating to the camera is on a lot of layers, so you have something related to the camera on the framework level, something on the Android level, something on a system level. So we’re gonna have to rewrite a lot of code to be able to separate it in a way that allows us to blob it. And the second reason is, if we were to blob it the result is that the speed will suffer, so the speed of the camera UX on custom ROMs will suffer. We’re still trying to figure out a way of how we can release something that will help people improve the camera in their custom ROMs without making the experience become too bad. And we don’t want something with our logo to have a poor experience either. So it is going to be a little bit harder than we thought, but we’ve been discussing this"

Looks like they should have made it more developer friendly from the beginning. Did they honestly think that nobody would be using custom ROMS?

Also, notification badges in oxygen launcher. Not the nova launcher workaround.

X1.000.000 on this
Also, ability to have different sound level Calls and Notifications
Ability to hide apps in app drawer and make folders.
And private mode in gallery, working with fingerprint would be nice.
Different sound levels for calls and notifications.
Always on display which consumes just a little battery
For me the one trivial thing that really should be addressed are those awful accent colors. Especially for the dark theme.
The palette used is so pale! Except for the green and the sky blue I don't think anyone really likes the others. They really should change those to Material Design colors or atleast give the option to customize.
1. The most important !!! I want to be able to instal any rom without reflashing recovery, firmware or anyting else.
2. I want to set Finger print to lock/unlock screen without any pass or pattern, that means to work everytime.
3. Camera to make Macro photos.

Photo editor pro is missing on android Pie

Hi
I just updated my Note 9 with android Pie and my favourite function for editing photos is missing now.On oreo I had the option in photo editor to add another picture to my actual photo when I wanted to edit...now this editor doesn't have this function to insert a picture to the actual photo ...Is anything missing here, or is just me?
I Still have the option to add another photo in a photo. In Samsung Galary edit the picture, pick to add a sticker and choose your second picture.
Thank you..I thought they removed this option.
Photo editor pro
You can add only stickers but no photo from gallery;( Anybody knows how to fix that????
Its ridiculous. I was hoping this was because I was on pie beta. Apparently not. They keep cutting little tweaks and features here and there.

Choice the calendar Icon after your choice the stickers menu
The new Photo editor sucks. No blurr function anymore. Inserting pics was easy before and had a lot of tweaking options. Now.. we have stickers.. Note 9 is not a phone for children.. the new photo editor affects my business. I must now edit pics with a third party software. Thank you Sammy.

People need to make noise over at Samsung fourms or direct msg Samsung via members app! ONE UI PIE 9 has taken away so much.. it's a becoming a joke!
Great... I thought i wasn't going mad, just really disappointed it's gone, it was extremely useful.
Option is not gone, just hidden.
You just need to go under stickers. On the default page by the calenders and such there's one that looks like a white square with rounded corners. Choosing that will open the gallery and allow you to insert an image.
Why we dont have an assist to prevent rotate images and stickers while scaling them. They always rotate!
Where is this "calendar" icon in stickers? I'm not finding it on my note 9
this update sucks, does anyone know how to adjust the "Effect" like "cartoon there use to be an adjusting sliding bar....I don't have it anymore Please help..this is so confusing and messing up my editing
Thank you guys for helping me find out how to do the photo-in-photo edit! In photo editor pro, where that function used to be, there used to be an option to add Covers- which are blurred/censored effects for thing you wants covered- anyone know if that was hidden and accessible as well or completely removed like a lot of features
I'm using a Samsung note 8
edit it's actually missing some pro features
I just updated today my self and I was searching for photo editor pro for ages, It's actually still there when you view the picture it's self you'll see a little pencil symbol second from the left on the bottom of the screen all of the pro features are there for you to use.
They could of told us though.
Thanks guys, I managed to locate it. I was also going crazy about that as I struggled after upgrading to Pie.
Android Pie Gallery: I've found Photo Editor Pro!
Sorry - but the photo-editor Pro features are NOT all there - e.g. Where is the "Advanced" button with the feature I used so often, i.e. "Backlight"?? Can't find it...
Correction: EUREKA - I found it!!
with a picture open, click the Pencil-symbol and THEN the three dots at the top right where you have the items "Portrait / Point color / Advanced. Tap "Advanced" and there we go -EVERYTHING that was under Oreo.
So the difference is that the three dots when you open the picture do not offer the editor pro, but AFTER tapping the pencil you get another three-dots menu, where you find the functions . In essence: it's just ONE step more than before - I can live with that )
Complete happiness!
Seems like a serious drill down... But at least it's there! Cheers
I can't find these options that I have circled. The 'covers' doesn't seem to be anywhere, and you can't toggle an image that is inserted as you could before, you can only make it bigger and smaller and move it around, more basic than before. Uff!

Need help to find missing options in stock camera - Pie Ui

Hi i'm from india, recently updated from oreo to pie officially.
But after upgrade i missed some important features in camera like video recording in pro mode, and beautification (like 3 diamond icon in oreo) option.
In beautification mode, we find separate sub mode for females and males for perfect selfies but now in pie i didn't find this option.
Can any body show me where these settings hidden. how can i enable it.
Thanks
They removed recording video in pro mode. I don't know how's it even possible and who approved it but they completely destroyed camera with pie update. You can use 3rd party apps, but all working apps are paid. And these apps aren't cheap.
I've noticed a downward trend in photo modes and its options since S7edge days.

EMUI vs MIUI info needed

I might be moving from a Xiaomi phone to a Huawei one soon. The following I found most annoying things in MIUI(latest version) so I want to know how many of these things I am going to experience in EMUI too.
1. Lockscreen notifications disappear after unlocking the phone even if the notifications have not been cleared. Notifications that you receive while screen on will never make it to the lockscreen.
2. Google Smart Lock does not work and Xiaomi does not provide any alternative of their own.
3. The camera app does not have an option to review picture immediately after taking it.
4. Auto brightness is not adjustable and is simply a one size fits all option.
5. The DND mode cannot ONLY silent notifications. Notification and ringtone volume cannot be unlinked either so there is no easy way to silence all notifications.
Furthermore as I understand both of these skins have very aggressive battery management. MIUI does allow me to whitelist apps to exclude from that. Does Huawei offer this option too?
Lastly I read somewhere that you can't reply on a lock screen notification in EMUI? Is that still the case with the latest version?

Question People's thoughts on Origin Ocean

Just upgraded to the beta Origin OS Ocean on my Vivo X60 Pro+, loving the new OS, haven't had chance to fully go through everything, the New Camera App seems easier to use, although no new functionality. I like the new dialler as well. Has anyone else upgraded and what do they like or dislike?
It's superb, the only annoying thing is the home screen swipe up function to call the widgets / kits screen. I'm using a few scrollable widgets which sometimes doesn't work correctly, instead the white widget screen appears when swipe up. Since I didn't find any external app I guess this is integrated into the launcher now. I replaced the launcher because of this
I like the new camera app because the up-down swipe now controll the exposure and the left-right swipe can in- or decrease color strength.
Which version are you using? I have version PD2056D_A_5.5.5
I thought it was the global version, but there's a lot in Chinese which is bothering me for not understanding. It's still android 11, will the android 12 version come soon and maybe fix this version that says global but isn't?
There are some reports on pda.ru that camera performance has got worse. Do you experience something like that?
Other than that do you face any problems?
i using orgin and global rom
I feel Orgin auto focus and AI better than global rom

I'm waiting for the ocean OS android 12 Rom. Who knows it may come as a global version, but I think it took a while for Ocean to come out with android 12, at least I didn't receive it
