[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Grondah:
Not seen that issue before.

Have you tried wiping the cache partition?

If that doesn't work it's likely one of the core Huawei packages so you may need to restore some until you find the cause.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] G-FACE:
Thanks. Wiping cache from recovery didn't worked.

Already tried to restore some of the potential problematic apps, but didn't helped.

In every guide i checked one by one the packages and all are safe to remove, except Notepad, but I doubt that it can cause this issue.

Com.huawei.nearby shouldn't be removed, it has impact on GPS stability.

I removed com.huawei.contacts because I use Google contact and dialer, however had to restore as this breaks the adding of trusted list for priority calling in do not disturb mode.

Huawei Home, is this necessary or could it be removed also?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ilos:
Someone already replied to you...

Before typing adb shell try adb devices...

As per your copy / past you are already connected with adb to your phone with adb shell command if you get this => HWLYA:/ $

Do that (you don't need to check for device coz you can adb shell as per your copy / past ...) :

C:\adb>adb devices

You will see your device

After that type :

C:\adb>adb shell

And you will be connected to your phone...

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Unfortunately Huawei have tied the Optimiser app with call block list and also battery , so once removed you lose those options . For me the call block list was a big one. I needed to maintain this. However, I don't think there is available options to uninstall only parts of the Optimiser app? You can view this under developer settings , running services. It shows as another Android process with multiple processes of Optimiser app running within in.

anyone know how to remove the huawei messaging (sms) app?

also, the music app.

I have a P40 Pro and the command for hauwei movie app worked but the one for music is called something else probably.

Huawei ID has the same issue, it says it's not installed so I guess it has a different name

Can't find a way to remove the huawei gallery app either

edit: found out how to list all package names using: link adb shell pm list packages -f

huawei gallery:

adb uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.photos

huawei calendar:

adb uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.calendar

huawei parental control:

adb uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.parentcontrol

huawei music:

This is indeed a quick and easy method even for noobs like me. My phone is noticeably faster now. Thank you very much.

Aside from Huawei apps, I also removed Google apps I barely use. Here is a list:

Google - com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox

Maps - com.google.android.apps.maps

Drive - com.google.android.apps.docs

Play Movies - com.google.android.videos

Duo - com.google.android.apps.tachyon

Photos - com.google.android.apps.photos

Play Music - com.google.android.music

Youtube - com.google.android.youtube

AppGallery - com.huawei.appmarket

Files - com.huawei.hidisk

Support - com.huawei.phoneservice

Video - com.huawei.himovie.overseas

Music - com.android.mediacenter

Themes - com.huawei.android.thememanager

Email - com.android.email

Party Mode - com.android.imedia.syncplay

Notepad - com.example.android.notepad

Ride mode - com.huawei.ridemode

HiSearch - com.huawei.search

I haven't encountered any problems resulting from uninstalling the apps on the list. I've left some system apps like Phone Manager because I find it really useful.

I NEED HELP with one thing though:

After an update, two third party apps were installed to my phone (Lazada and Kwai). They can be uninstalled normally BUT they automatically reinstall whenever I boot my phone. I tried uninstalling them through adb, but it didn't solve the problem. Hope someone can help. Thanks.

If Settings will start crashing upon start, consider:

Caused issue for me on Nova 7i.

My clean-up list is provided below, but...

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND that some core things like Phone, SMS, Contacts, Calendar, Keyboard, Calculator etc., have been installed from FOSS sources prior removal !!!!

I also noticed, that I can't kill apps anymore (swipe up in the list of running apps), they seem to be killed but if I press on "square button" again they are back. Looking for missing package... Please let me know if you have the answer :)

So, my clean-up list:

I have "Discreet launcher" from f-droid store installed, set as default launcher.

removed huawei home with adb.

Only thing that is gone is:

: swipe from bottom up. (only swipe left or right close app now)

: because of above, no more multiple apps open, only one, because if i swipe it away with discrete launcher itcloses app (unless app runs in notification area like tidal, vlc and so on)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evilc:
Having worked with rlToday, and currently coding an app to do something similar, I have wanted a couple of times to display text with an outline (ie white text with black outline so it is visible on any background) but simply printing a black version of the text in a bigger font underneath white text in a smaller fontsize does not work because of the way fonts are scaled.

However, this got me thinking...

What if one were to design a set of custom fonts for this purpose?

The way I am thinking, you would need two fonts - an "inner" version and an "outer" version. The outer version would have to be scaled about the centre of the letter, not about the baseline, and I would imagine that the spacing on the inner font would need to be as wide as the characters on the outer font.

So, before I waste loads of time getting font editors and seeing if it can be done, I would like to ask if anyone knows if this would be feasible, or if they have successfully done it or failed.

Another idea I suppose would be to print the outer font 4 times (left one, right one, up one, down one) - I guess this would have the same effect but at the cost of speed.

In an ideal world, it would be nice to not have to make an inner font - just to have to make an outer version of existing fonts, but I am not sure this would work unless you could set the spacing of the stock inner font wider.

Comments, suggestions please.

The classic path approach isn't working on WM?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Synned:
Ultimatelaunch does it...I have two colored text and it looks pretty sweet. The font is called 'juice' not sure if that has anything to do with it though
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evilc:
What is this "Classic path" method you speak of?

At a guess I think you mean drawing a line around the font programatically?

This is not an option for some things, unless you have access to the source code - it would be nice to have a solution that could be implimented without needing to code for it in the app. For example, rlToday would benefit nicely from just such a system.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evilc:
OK, so it has been done before then, although I did search around the net before I posted, honest!

It seems that the term used for the "inner" font is a "fill" font. I am going to try and find a freeware fill + outline font combo, pls let me know if you are aware of any.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evilc:
When you say "Ultimatelaunch" does it - what do you mean? I bought UL and I do not see the font on my system or in the UL dir.

I see a "juice" font on the internet that is a fill+outline set, but it is not free.

So if it is possible, I may well have a bash at doing a free one myself. At the very least it would be worth doing just the numbers for SMS / email counts in rlToday
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evilc:
An update here:

My main use for something like this was to be with applications such as rlToday.

However, stefanux is now writing XIAMultiTheme (XMT) which is compatible with, and extends rlToday. One of the things XMT does is allow you to specify a directory as a font, and it will look for image files named accordingly

ie if you wanted to print "123" you would need "1.png", "2.png" and "3.png" in the directory you specify.

I have made a 16px high font of numbers in transparent PNG (Great for overlaying message counts onto icons) and added it to the XMT project for now.

If the need is still there in a while I will look at making a fill font combo and releasing it, maybe as part of the XMT project, but for now this is a good enough solution for me.

Hi I bought a (128gb sandisk SD card) for my pocophone F1, at first the files were transfering fine but when I reached 28gb everything I transfer now just disappears.

I have had this problem before from buying cheap SD cards granted they were unbranded SD cards.

This one was branded and not cheap and was fully packaged.

the only explanation I can think of is it's fake, or could it be my phone, people with the pocophonne f1 were saying that thier files were transfering slow but this bug might have been fixed, as there have been lots of updates for the pocophone F1 since, so if anyone can help much appreciated thanks.

Hi just a little update I bought my SD card from eBay and this was my response from the seller.

Hi thanks for informing me please send the card back and I will refund you and when I go to the warehouse I will tell them I no it’s frustrating this is also happening on amazon apologies for the inconvenience.

To me the seller conceded that the SD card was fake very quickly but that might just be my suspicious mind lol so who can I trust to buy from to get a legitimate SD card thanks.

My mtk device keeps connecting and disconnecting on Sp flash tool.

Earlier this morning my phone was having a problem with starting. Whenever i want to start it, it will show the boot logo then turn off. I can fix this problem everytime by flashing my device. But i had tried flashing it with a malfunctioning usb. It was flashing till 4 percent then it stopped with a message (i can't remember it). Then i used a proper usb. Then this problem started. My pc makes the usb connecting sound when i connect my phone to pc after clicking the download on sp flash tool. But after 2 seconds it disconnects and the Downloading DA gets stuck at 100%. And from morning i was having the same problem over and over again. Then i was browsing on youtube and i found a video about this problem. The video described this this problem will occur if your device is specified as unknown device in the device manager and sp flash tool will not be able to flash your device. Okay that did sound promising because i never had unknown device problem before. Then i searched how to fix it. Then another video appeared. And it specified something in the driver settings about hardware and upgrading it. And then i started to browse the comments. Then i found a comment with "I was having the same problem. Now i fixed it by uninstalling the unknown driver. Then i don't know what stuck my mind then i immediately uninstalled the unknown driver. Then i connected my phone again. Now i dont see any unknown driver or anything. Please help me fix it. By the way my battery might have some problem. It is not portable i mean you can't pull it out and inject it again. It is fixed. So please anyone help me. Here is my email for more info: rohanmb17@gmail.com.
