Disable Digital Balance

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

: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.

Amazing thank you so much! Have always wanted Google Feed instead of HiBoard. I disabled them instead of uninstalling them. THANK YOU!

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!

Is there any chance we can get ride of the annoying keyboard icon in the status bar as well?

I don't have any keyboard icon under the notification area. Can you post the screenshot?

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?

Try

You just should try it out, i tried with my Nova 5T and everithing worked just fine. But keep in mind that this model still has google services support.

Well yes, that's exactly the reason I'm not that confident about trying it. I'm not sure what side effects could occur.

Anyone tried this on the P40/P40 Pro?

Hello. My nova 5t is in emui 10 and it doesn't have hiboard. It only has HUAWEI Assistant. What should I do?

Any one got this working on P40 pro??

Huawei Facebook deception on P30 Pro uncovered for privacy

When I bought the device I checked to make sure there was no Facebook bundled into the OS. I bought the P30 Pro in Hong Kong. Upon leaving later I checked my apps and Facebook appeared with no uninstall option. WTF? I did not download or install Facebook on it and checked to make sure that when I bought it that it did not have Facebook on it.

More info can be seen here..
https://uk.community.huawei.com/sof...alled-with-no-uninstall-option-4373#post23629
Huawei is either dishonest with uninstall option or someone is really stupid doing the programming. See link above for more info. If you uninstall something it should not be able to come back period. If I the garbage was thrown away outside in the garbage dumpster I should not see it back in my house again and if I deleted,uninstalled or had the app thrown away it should not pop back on again in my smartphone. I have never deleted an app in my iPhone only to see it after present in my app list Did Facebook pay Huawei money to make sure it can not be uninstalled? Why is it that in the actually Google App Play Store it can only be disabled but in the Huawei App Store it can be deleted only to then pop back up again when Huawei app is disabled?

This is not the Facebook App, this is Facebook services. It was there from the beginning, same as with the P20 Pro before. You can uninstall it easily via ADB.

Isn't Root required to use ADB?

A simple Google search can guide you on how to remove it via ADB. Facebook and it's framework services are bundled in almost every global version phones now. I had it in my S10 plus as well. Just disable them if you don't want to remove it.

No root required

That looks a bit complicated..
We already know that anything related to Facebook and disable is useless. If it can not be uninstalled then something is up.
I just watched the video you linked. If you go to the 1 minute and 30 second mark you will hear that he says we are not actually uninstalling the app but are hiding it from the user which is exactly what the Huawei Gallery app did.

It‘s not complicated. And you are not disabling it, you are UNINSTALLING it with adb FROM THE CURRENT USER. That means it is not removed from the device but uninstalled for your user account. Like windows can do, or mac os. No more facebook services, then, unless you reset or install a major update.

Will it work with a MacBook Pro or do you have to have a Windows based laptop to work?

It works fine on the mac, I am a mac user myself.

Will try to see how I can get it to work on my Mac but as of now it manages to pop back up again which is not good.

Not sure why its popping back on yours, never had any issue on mine after removing it and all its services via adb. Even after so many updates (currently on .153) , it never came back.

I think I know why. I updated to the newer firmware version. I downloaded and updated to the newest version and I think after I downloaded and updated it brought back the Facebook apps.

If you only disabled it then yeah , it probably returned after the update. If you remove it via adb, then it won't come back. Facebook and its services are standard now in most of the phones not only huawei.

I wonder how much money Facebook paid Huawei? for additional Spyware to be built into their OS with no straight out uninstall option for end users ?

I just bought it, no plans to sell it yet. Not a cheap smartphone. You could buy one online though. I picked mine up in Hong Kong. For about $7K HKD (just under that).

[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

If i uninstall it (com.android.settings.intelligence), the suggestions are away but the field to search in the settings is also gone ... this is the large blank space.

Ps: is it a decision of Xiaomi that Instagram can not be cloned in "dual apps", too?
Or is it just a bug in Miui13?

Can't really tell you, never used it but you can test with another app that can only be deactivated and see the result.

Instagram app can be deactivated using system settings, I did it... and nothing happened.
So I can't figure out what may happen if I uninstall it completely.

I answered this question
"is it a decision of Xiaomi that Instagram can not be cloned in "dual apps", too?"
Instagram is not a system apps you can uninstall it.
No need to deactivate it first.

The die is cast. I uninstalled it using ADB AppControl 1.7.9.
It seems everything is still working...
Thanks again NOSS8!
