Just got the p30 pro and it's a bit of a learning curve to access features from a oneplus.
1) Is it possible to access location mode on the p30pro?
In my older phones, I had access to 'High accuracy', 'Battery saving' and 'Device only'.
Can't seem to find that setting here.
2) The authentication page for a public WIFI network forces login via the huawei browser.
My default browser is set to Chrome, but it doesn't state so in default apps.
i don't wish to use the huawei browser. Is this a problem with EMUI not recognising I've set the default browser to chrome , or is there some other way of forcing the automatic authentication to use chrome instead of the huawei browser?
3) Does the front camera have zoom?
4) Can wallpapers be disabled?
cheers
1. Remember seeing it somewhere before but cant seem to find it now lol. Will update this shortly.
2. Settings- Search Default apps - Change browser to Chrome or whichever you want. Then it should open chrome by default
3. No zoom on the front camera and i guess no one zooms in on a selfie. Take a picture and crop it.
4. What you mean by wallpapers be disabled ? The megazine unlock ?
1. Please do.
2. I tried numerous times. It seems like the settings don't save the default app to chrome. It just remains as "default" which I assume is the Huawei browser. Maybe it's a bug?
3. I found another installed huawei app called mirror. That has zoom.
4. I meant I want a black or no background. Just plain.
Thanks.

2. Default is chrome... if it is set to Huawei Browser, it changes in default apps to Huawei Browser. If it is using Huawei Browser for Wifi Login this is similiar "bug" if you can call it that to iPhone using Safari for wifi even though chrome can be used for everything else... its probably has to do with the integration of the phone settings pack since it has to be something always on the phone in case you need it... since Huawei browser can't be uninstalled, this is probably the case...
3. Does mirror actually take pictures?
4. Just get a black box picture jpg or png and set as background... :good:

1. Think it's controlled by huawei's system so no way to change it, the one i saw was on my s10 plus. Im sorry, made a mistake.
2. I think they made it that way , can't try it my self here since there's no hotspot to test it out. Its like some china phones, when you install google keyboard and when it comes to type it the password, it reverts back to their stock keyboard.
3. Removed mirror app as soon as i booted it up after purchase
4. As mahst68 mentioned above, google amoled pure black wallpaper and then it will be all black.
1. Yes. Mine was on one plus. Useful.
2. Ah. Chrome is default. OK. Terrible implementation to force it to use the Huawei browser for authentication. Will have to live with it for now.
3. It does. Single tap to "pause" and you can save the shot. No fancy features like the camera, but it does have selection of borders. Not my thing. I just stick with borderless.
4. I guess that's a workaround that'll have to work.
Thanks for all the help so far.

On regards no.2, you can easily resolve it by removing the stock browser via ADB. Plenty of guides here , especially on the mate 20 forum

Good to hear this! I looked into this a little yesterday but can't do it on the computer I'm on because I don't have admin access.
Also good to know that it won't bugger anything else.
Once I'm done transferring all the data, I'll look into tidying up the apps and this will be one of those I'll do first.
I'll also need to look into whether I still require Es file explorer or whether the huawei privatespace and safe functions are good enough to lock away folders, files from prying eyes.

IMHO, i find Huawei's private space and safe to be better than other third party apps out there but obviously it's not up to par with Samsung KNOX yet. Hye, you can't win them all eh
I know this is the Mi 8 forum, but I feel that the issue I have on my Mi 9 will be common across both phones, and thought I would post here too.
I've noticed that at least two apps will mysteriously stop working in the background, causing problems:
First, most important, I use my Google Voice number, not my SIM number, so I need Google Voice to be running so that it intercepts my calls and uses the right phone number to make calls. If I open Google Voice, it will work for a few hours, maybe a day, and then GV stops working and calls start going out through my SIM number.
The other app that exhibits this behavior is Garmin Connect -- my watch gives me notifications, but then, for no reason, it will stop working. Opening Garmin Connect solves the problem.
I have ensured all permissions are set as liberally as possible, even the "allow autostart" option. Not sure what else to do. Any ideas would be great. I actually didn't have the issue with my Mi 8, but I wonder if anyone has any knowledge on how this could happen on the Mi 9.
Thanks!

MIUI itself is a bit heavy on RAM, for one, and it's always been a bit aggressive on RAM management. Another thing, have you disabled MIUI's power saving functionality for those apps? I believe it only affects background push data, but I may be wrong. To configure said apps, go to Settings > Battery & performance > Choose apps and then select the apps in question and set to No Restrictions. There used to be an option to completely disable it, but that has since been removed. Another thing is to enable Developer options by tapping the MIUI version several times in the About phone section of the Settings app, then go to Additional settings > Developer options and disable MIUI optimizations. Read the prompt that pops up as I recall it mentioning something about affecting certain services.

I have set the apps in question to No Restrictions, a long time ago, but that didn't help. Today, I tried another option -- Use Adaptive Battery (Limit battery for apps that you don't use often). I turned that OFF, and it appears I've been getting alerts on my Garmin watch all day. However, I made a call and Google Voice wasn't active. I was getting excited that I'd found a cure until that happened. I'll try your suggestion in developer options and report back if it works. Thanks for that idea.
No luck -- Google Voice is still stopping, even after just a few minutes. I can't make calls on my google voice number unless I first launch Voice, then go to the phone app.

Yeah MIUI 10 + Android 9.0 are worse than previous versions of MIUI, but Google apps have issues on all devices that do not use stock or near stock Android. Have you attempted to lock the app in the task manager? Open your app, for example Google Voice, then using the task manager (App switcher), long press that app and tap the lock button. Try using the phone as you normally would and see if it helps.
@Crossvxm that's a good idea. I'll try and let you know how it goes.

All you have to to do is turn off Battery restrictions.
Also, I would suggest giving the launcher "Smart Launcher: a try. Not only is it awesome but it gives you quick access to all of the permissions, and battery optimizations. You can manage all of this from the Apps list.. Press and hold on any icon and click namage ( or the gear then manage) this is much easier then searching through the system settings for autostart, permissions, battery management etc. This is one app that is worth buying. The free version is great, but the paid version is incomparable, and I own all of the popular launchers. Smart Launcher Pro 5 is absolutely the best, and highly customizable.
My biggest issue with all AOSP roms is that the battery goes up to 105F when charging on every single AOSP rom that I have tried on the Mi8. While there is no immediate risk in the long term the battery should not get hotter than room temperature.
Back to Miui, turn off battery restrictions and you will have no issues, you also have the option of clicking the pin in recents to keep the app active.
Hi @tsongming, I've done everything possible to deactivate restrictions. I've done it the way you mentioned and other ways as well. I did try locking the app as mentioned by @Crossvxm and it might have done the trick -- will know more in a few days. I use Nova Launcher (paid version) and it has the same features you mentioned about Smart Launcher, where I can get to the settings instantly.

I run MIUI stock 10.3.3.0 with Sphinx Kernel and root. I also use Hangouts, Google voice, and Google message without issues. It's like tsongming mentioned. Turn off the adaptive battery and remove battery restrictions on each app. Also make sure they get all permissions.
Something to note , when I used Canting Kernel, I had lots of apps turn off in background including my Fossil sport watch connection. Going back to Sphinx Kernel took care of issue, probable too aggressive memory killer in Canting. Stock Kernel might have same issue idk.
./
When I had my Mi 8, I had no issues. This seems to be something new with the 9. I've disabled adaptive battery, I've provided all permissions to the app, I've removed all power restrictions. I'm not rooted, so I can't change kernel right now. It appears that locking the app might have helped a bit, but I wish I didn't have to do it.
Hi
This is a post directed to anyone who owns/has purchased their X50 5G from China as I am trying to confirm that they have the same issues with their phone as me, or whether my issues are specific to my phone, so thanks in advance!
I've run the phone from factory reset a few times as I've encountered a few problems or have noticed differences to what the user guide says to what the phone displays within the menus.
Most importantly (for me) is the fact that their is no Google Location History available. Even before adding an account, if I go to Additional settings > Google > Account services > Location > More Settings I get access to Emergency Location Services, Google Location Accuracy but Google Location History is greyed out and so cannot be tuned on when logged in, the device is not registered for location history.
Also, once Google Assistant is installed and set up, if the Home button is pressed for the allotted time, it may appear, but no voice recognition works, even when the app is selected as the default option. Also, I've noted that within the user guide and online, I've seen an option within the Convenience Aid (although on my phone its called Convenience Tools) menu called Awake Google Assistant, but my phone does not have that.
Maybe it's just that I haven't set the correct permissions as they are way more complicated than standard Android settings, but that is not necessarily a bad thing.
In fact there seems to be a lot of differences between what the user guide says and what's actually on the phone.
I've also noticed that conference calls do not seen to work when I get two calls and try to merge.
Can anyone provide any useful comments to either say that they experience the same, or it works from stock, or how to resolve any of the above?
Cheers
I have this same phone same issues, plus you can't set google messages or any other messaging app as default, you can't remove there app market. And NO GOOGLE DISCOVER ON LEFT SWIPE SCREEN.

Wow, i might be opted for the same. This Chinese models or best to say it...Realme fails as a brand. It's their responsibility. It's pretty much obvious they sell stupid products. per se they have their own brand or the **** they care about global consumers..ad why they make it available outside their country.
Realme is a stupid brand nothing more. I'll try to sell this trash too.

Did you tried long press VOL- + Power button till power up ?
I just remembered there're some functions could recovery the phone over WiFi in the factory recovery mode.
BTW, In your case, I certainly unlocked my RMX2051 through In-depth test apk file for X50 Pro version.
If your don't mind, maybe you could post how did you recovery your phone in the future.
Good luck.
Hi all,
I was one of the lucky ones to be asked by OPPO to test ColorOS 12 on my X3 Pro.
Because of the NDA i'm not allowed to show screenshots, but I am allowed to answer questions.
In general I can say it needs a little bit more work.
- There is an issue with the fingerprint access in some apps.
- My Bank app does not start (not even after a reinstall).
- The Wifi icon in quick settings looks like wifi is disabled, even though it's enabled.
- At first there was a floating icon for Bitwarden that I could only move around, but not remove from the desktop. After two days it disappeared.
- The power menu now finally shows available smart home commands to use from the menu.
- I'm using Nova Launcher, and that still seems to work fine.
- The screenshot functionality has been improved a bit.
- There is an occassional freeze
- Not all of the new gestures work as advertised
- The speed of the OS is quite good
- The refresh rate seems to be locked at 120, except when watching a YT video at full screen
- one time I got a call and my screen remained black, I couldn't take the call
Hi and thank you for your feedback from using ColorOS 12.
Interestingly. Is it for global or Chinese version of mobile?

The global version. I'm in the Netherlands.
Hi. I was checking the APKmirror website and it seems that they have uploaded some of the apps extracted from the android 12 update. So far I have installed the Photo APK, the files manager, the clock, the screenshot, compass and maybe some more. I have to say that they look very nice and a little more elegant than before.

Hello,
I'm looking for a new android smartphone.
I'm hesitating between Google Pixel 6 Pro and Vivo X70 Pro+ ...
- What about the phone stability ?
- What about OriginOS, I've seen that a new version OriginOS Ocean) is coming soon ... ?
- What is your overall opinion on the phone ?
Thanks
Also I'm coming from Google Pixel 3, does the migration path is simple ? What about backup restoration (call/message history, contadts, calandars ...) ?

I'm answering to both questions regarding my user experience.
1) The phone is totally stable. Google apps work without problem except those which required to be installed as system (Android Auto, Hotword...)
2) Origin OS Ocean is coming before new year. Its functionality is basically advanced configuration known from IOS. We'll see its advantages and also whether it will spoil current performance. I use actual system with custom launcher and removed Chinese bloatware and my phone currently looks and acts as a pure Android.
3) My overall opinion is so far in favor of the phone. I like the system, camera, screen, stability and reliability together with some solutions limited to Chinese phones. Together with the constant improvements and pledge for 3 years system upgrade, I still believe that I get the best bang for the buck.
4) Migration is straight forward with the dedicated app either from Android or IOS.
5) You can have contacts, history and messages backed on Vivo account.
Hope I helped.

Exactly, I have the Chinese one. But I don't use Nova, I used to, but it doesn't suit my needs any more. It is full of options I don't need and lacks the ones I want. Now I use Star launcher Prime and yes, it supports gestures.

Thank you for your reply. Are you getting delayed notifications for apps? Is there a workaround?
Sorry, can't help you much with that. I don't use popular apps like Facebook, Instagram etc. Notifications for phone and messages I receive just in time as always on screen information. Same with signal but not as aos.
I use native mail app and it has minimum lag of 5 minutes by default. And I have to many mails to have notifications active for them.
Actually I hate notifications. They drain my battery and my time. Hence I use them as little as possible.
I just installed the OceanOS beta. I'm not a die-hard Android user, but I notice some nice improvements like a bigger box for grouped apps. There are a gazillion more improvements which I need to discover though, but yes, I am happy.

Hi..
I hope that am not to late for anyone want to pay vivo garbage smartphone.. i own the vivo x70 pro plus OriginOS (chainese version).. and i advise everyone want to purchase this garbage to wait and look for another device.. i will explain my 4 months experience with that garbage..
i will answer this questions first..
-What about the phone stability ?
The phone is awesome stable but vivo os will spoil your experience with the phone if you live outside the supported regions for the vivo x70pro+ whatever if its OriginOS or FunTouchOS..
- What about OriginOS, I've seen that a new version OriginOS Ocean is coming soon ... ?
I am on OriginOS ocean and it is worst than normal OriginOS in term of experience.. and full with Chinese letters and words even when you change the OS UI to English.. !! They can fix it as easy and translate it fully to English like in FunTouchOS but they didn't..
- What is your overall opinion on the phone ?
Everything is awesome except the OS experience its very bad compared to other brands i have used in the past like samsung and lg and pixel and OnePlus and oppo OSs.. if you are in outside supported regions you will not be able to register an vivo account with your phone number which will let you set some accessbelity needed permission to the installed apps or to install apps from third party apps to your phone.. without the vivo account you will not be able to do that.. and if you make vivo account just without phone number activation you will not be able to use some features and functions and you wil not be able to change your account name from Chinese to any other languages.. i can confirm setting up an vivo account is simply a nightmare..
When its come to notifications (Whatsapp Facebook Instagram snapchat telegram etc) is the worst smartphone ever and you will never get notifications in time or never. just for wechat its work perfectly..even when you remove or disabled the .pem app to fix notifications issues receiving notifications will be better a little bit just little bit but when you restart your phone google play store and YouTube will not work any more because you removed the stupid .pem app..
This phone had awesome hardware with a garbage software..
I have removed my SIM card from this phone and put it back in my older lg v50 since I can't use the x70pro+ as my daily driver.. i offered my vivo x70pro+ for sell tow weeks back and i didn't get any offers on it till today.. now i mainly use the lg v50 for social media and phone calls and the x70pro+ just for camera & gaming and watching YouTube.. if i sold the x70pro+ i will pay the pixel 7 pro for sure..
This x70pro+ garbage is not friendly user experience at all..

Yes there is by removing .pem app but when you remove it and restart your phone the play store and YouTube will not work anymore.. i tried many times by removing or disableing and even reset my phone many time and the same issues happened every time i remove or disable .pem garbage..
Even if you removed or disabled the pem it not a total fix for the notifications issues..

You can change the garbage vivo home launcher but is not easy as other brands OS.. and you will not be able to use the slide gesture in the navigation bar to jumb to the previous used apps in recent apps if u change the vivo launcher!!
Also you will get a stupid message everytime you restart or turn on the phone warning you the third party launcher is harmful!!

It is possible but not simple at all..
Tend to disagree with the notifications. It takes some diving into the settings, but mine work fine for the apps I'm interested in. Whatsapp notifications even show earlier on my OriginOS Vivo than an Android One Motorola.
I bought mine simply for the camera which is awesome. The rest is of less importance. So take in mind what your main functionality is with the device and use that in making your decisions.

I didn't uninstall some Vivo apps that are usually removed, becauseI found them useful (mail, sms, docs...)
I don't have any issues after uninstalling com.vivo.pem as you may see in some others reports. I assume that they might remove something else important (part of the system architecture - launcher base?).
And I can confirm again that the phone is totally stable without issues at all.
Finally, I bought the right dongle to bypass the lack of Android Auto and there are no more shortcomings left for my mode of phone use. Yes, on AOS there are notifications only for phone and messages, others appears only on the home screen. But I don't feel deprived because of that. And Vivo is delaying with the Android 12, which is not a pattern but rather a consequence of the engagement with the Ocean. I believe that after 12 (Ocean 3) the upgrades will be more fluent and Vivo promised 3 full Android upgrades.
About the launcher: you have to enable "replace system launcher" in "more security settings" and set your custom launcher as default (in default apps). You may still see warning: use system launcher after resetting the phone now and then, but you simply cancel it.
I don't use Nova launcher, even I bought the prime license once. I use Star launcher prime which is lightweight and far more versatile. It suits my needs perfectly, and I can do everything I want in form of adaptations. And no issues, no china at all. Attached is my new home screen.
Okay thanks a lot my friend. I went thru the forums and found out how to delete the apps blocking my notifications and how to use the third party launcher lol. But still thanks for getting back to me cause I wanted to see the apps you uninstalled because I tried removing some apps and they won't leave. Like the imusic and the wallet app won't uninstall idk why.
As for the other guys having problems with his phone after removing the com.vivo.pem I don't have that issue at all I can restart my phone just fine and google play services work and everything so it unfortunate he's having such issues but my phone works great I love it and have no problems. Just waiting for Android 12 and I'll be fine thanks again buddy!
