Hi,
I have purchased a smartcover (from cadorabo.de, see link at the bottom of this message) with :
an horizontal window on the top half of the screen and an horizontal stripe to answer the calls in the middle of the bottom half.
a magnet in the middle of the right side.
By default it seems Huawei P10 is designed for:
a vertical window over the right third of the display
a magnet just left of the fingerprint sensor to trigger it
It seems that P10 has 2 hall effect sensors: one dedicated to smart cover and a magnetometer on top right corner.
Question 1: can P10 adjust to this format of smart cover?
Question 2: can P10 adjust to use the top right magnetometer hall effect sensor instead of the one left of fingerprint.

Hi all
My other phones with smart view cases have a small magnetic dot within the case which appears to trigger the wake/sleep part of their smart view functionality.
My existing case for my beloved P20 Pro is not smart but does offer good protection so I want to use this. When using tasker/ittt as a custom 'open to wake up' type affair, I end up with a device manager lock screen.
I'm hoping to place a small disk akin to the magnets in my other cases within my current flip case.
TL;DR
Does anyone know where the sensor is for the smart view (i know it isn't simply proximity)
Thanks everyone

Hi my note 8 has dead pixels in bottom edge and ruins my nervous system i don t want to look at bottom half of my screen because that unwanted notch .. Is there any App to disable three row of bottom pixels and cover that cluster of deads ?
I'm considering picking one of these up (refurb) and I've never had a phone with notch or with cameras in the screen area. Front camera has been in the bezel area right above the screen. It looks like the two front cameras on this device are essentially embedded into the screen. Does that mean there is less display areas for notification icons or does the device allow for two rows of notification icons + time/battery display up top?

It may seen that it would be e problem, i've owned mine for about 4 months bow and its not an issue. The notification bar is thin but still very readable. If you want to customize the notification panel further for space, you'll be able to download (GoodLock and NiceLock depending on your region) to help with that.

I took a peak at the descriptions of those apps and screen shots and can GoodLock actually modify the top notification status bar on top? I didn't think any app could control the look of that? Those apps seems to have quite a bit of overlap with built-in functions of latest Android 10 + One UI 2.x ? Still might give them a whirl.
SO I've had my S10 5G for about a week now. Right away, I tried the virtual bezel setting that basically black out the top of the screen next to the cameras. I didn't like the look. On my LG V30 the camera was in the bezel and the bezel was very thin so the screen display still appeared to take up most of the glass. With this setting on the Samsung, it's too heavy handed, blacks out a little too much height off the top of the screen so it looks odd with a very tall black bezel on top.
So far, I don't think the reduced space has caused my notification icon bar up top to get overloaded. What I ended up doing though was selecting a wallpaper that the top right corner is dark or almost black. It effectively "hides the cameras" while utilizing the full screen. Of course with apps open that aren't black on top, you see the large camera cutout but it's not really that distracting/terrible looking.
I like that Samsung got a little smarter on the S20 and has a very small single camera cutout in the middle of the screen now. Looks MUCH better. But still, it's only looks. Some may prefer having the dual front cameras, which I think is a nice trade off to having the larger camera cutout on the side instead of the a small single camera in the middle.
Until yesterday, when playing games I was able to view them full screen (edge to edge) even showing over the front camera (which I was content with); however, I have updated software to CPH2305_11_A 18 and now the left hand side of the screen has a border, even if I select Auto adapt, Show front camera or Hide front camera (show app in full screen) options, the border still remains. Has anybody come across this issue and how did you solve it?
Hi, my phone has a bigger punch hole than other phones I saw in YouTube, and only when I change the position of the phone from vertical to horizontal, the hole becomes small for a moment, but it returns to the same size as before. Even in the movie player, it is not small. I changed the region of the phone, but the hole did not change
Is there a way to make this hole look small everywhere?
Is it the same for you or not?
update: I want it to be like photo 2, but it is always like photo 1

Strange issue
I understood the solution
You have to go into the camera app, then change the mode from 4: 3 to full screen, then the hole will be small
change camera permissions and change it to use when the app is in use , change mode to full screen on camera settings and disable MIUI optimizations
