Update to EMUI 4.1 and it should work.
I have a P8 on EMUI 4.0.1 and it works because
they aded the com.spotify.music line to the hw_default file.

^ Unfortunately, the Mate 8 EMUI 4.1 still does not display Spotify music controls and album art on the lockscreen.

No music controls @ the lockscreen

Hello guys,
it seems very simple but while playing music with spotify or poweramp I don´t get the media controls on the lockscreen. I tried different themes because I read that this could be the problem... but nothing helps.
The solution to install a 3rd party lockscreen dosen´t fix the problem for me, because I wan´t to keep the phone unlocked with fingeprint.
Any suggestions?
sorry for bad english

It's genius if you add one option if the smartphone doesn't unlock by fingertip you can select what's app gonna lock!

Now you can lock your mobile apps using your fingerprint.
• No Peaking in recent apps
• Fully optimized
• No battery Drain
Note :
• you must register your fingerprint in your device
[Settings]> [Security]> [Nexus Imprint]
• Turn On Accessibility Service , this app will not work without enabling it.
[Settings]>[Accessibility]> turn on > [App Locker : Service]
• Enable Device Admin to prevent unauthorized uninstall.
[Settings]> [Security]> [Device Administrators]> turn on > [App Locker]
Please let me know your thoughts and review.

Everytime I receive a notification (Snapchat, WhatsApp, etc), the app is showing the lockscreen even without clicking on it.. Can you fix it? (Android N Beta - Nexus 5X).
Great app that I've just bought. Just a couple of suggestion.
A screen with a fake error instead of a screen asking for a fingerprint.
And a way to disable rapidly the service.
Guys please check the update , its awesome
This app is amazing, I downloaded the free version, original worked great, but with the addition of the crash screen is it supposed to recognize fingerprint input while the crash screen is up? It doesnt seem to let me do anything when the app crash is showing, but if I turn the crash screen it works as expected. As soon as i figure out if it's just me I'll be buying the premium version.

I have another issue on Android N.
It does not matter what I set in "Relock apps", after I unlock my device and open locked app (e.g. Settings), I need to unlock it after every activity change. And it stops (it does not ask for fingerprint) after some time...

Chinese wake up word pronunciation

I have the AL 10 version. I speak American English, I need the pronunciation of the default Chinese wake-up word. Then I'll be able to wake the device and change the word to my own choice.

Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-AL10 using Tapatalk
Ok thanks the pronunciation works, then using same tool you'll get the Chinese writing for ok Google, device will wake up to ok Google. But it's not the Google app. So it talks back in Chinese. This experiment is a bust.

What you can do is make an app using activator or similar which opens Google Voice Search, give it a Chinese name you can pronounce easily, then use the Chinese assistant to open that app.
It would work for OK Google, as long as you don't have a screen lock.
Unfortunately, there is no smoother solution. It might be possible to rework the innards so that the Chinese wake up word could trigger Google Voice Search, but my phone's bricked so I can't play around with it

Use tasker, create three profiles Display On, Display Off and Hivoice.
Display On:
trigger : on display state on
action : disable Hivoice app
Display Off :
trigger : on display state off
action : enable Hivoice app
Hivoice :
trigger : App Hivoice
action : app HiVoice diasabled
wait 1 sec
unlock device (another task)
wait 1 sec
Trigger Voice Search. (There are many ways to do this. i use "secure settings" app)
I guess all of above is self explanatory for anyone who knows tasker. And yes, this works for me.
Thanks will give Tasker another look I have found it more complicating than I was able to cope with. No worries Will give a look. Thanks.

HI - I gotta ask about tasker - does clearing all apps also kill tasker - my app of automation choice is Locale - which is repeatedly getting killed by Mate 8

Yes clearing apps will remove it, even if you protect it via phone manager > battery manager > protected apps.
You don't need clear apps urself, huawei emui clears unprotected apps automatically. Protected apps will be saved from auto-clearning.

Alright [emoji3] with embarrassment for someone with Android since version 2.1, I've failed to tasker it like you've mentioned. Are these commands transferable as in can you give me yours? I'll try again also cause seems learning tasker is useful, thanks

No, it doesn't have native support for Nova Launcher, unfortunately.
I remember when I still had my Mate7 there was a thread I came across in those forums where they found a way to add apps, but it requires root, and sadly it still didn't work for Nova, but worked on pretty much anything else.
The workaround I used on my MT7 was to open any app first and then open the dual window launcher to choose the second app. But no luck direct from Nova

PowerAmp not showing on Lock Screen

Hey all,
Anyone else find that PowerAmp does show on Lock Screen when music plays? Anyone know how to enable?
Thanks!
Go to Notifications & Status Bar --> Notifications Management meju and from there enable Poweramp to be visible on lock screen
OR
From the notification that appears whilr playing music drag it right or left slightly unless you see a gear button, click on that and change lock screen settings
If no notifications are displaying on the lockscreeb you might need to adjust your lockscreen notification settings.

OK that's one thing that works. It's functional. Thanks.
I was hoping to enable the media lockscreen with the album art and music controls rather than a notification.

That you have to look into the theme section. K believe that's a themeing issue or more precisely lockscreen type issue

Yeah Poweramp is the default music player but I can only get it to display notifications on the lockscreen.
For the music player that comes with emui5, it automatically uses the media lockscreen, even when not the default music player. I have the lockscreen set to magazine.
Seems many people have this issue but no solution.

What do you mean in your first quote? Currently, yes I have Poweramp showing as a notification, with no other option to activate the media lockscreen.
And yeah my battery lasts well. Today isn't a good day since I used it for music alot, which I don't always do. Normally it will last a few hours longer than this.

Well maybe my screen on time is the culprit. Gonna try to screen off my phone often to preserve batt. As for the Poweramp, it the same for me. I tried google music and it uses the media lockscreen gonna try with other music apps to see if poweramp or the medialockscreen is the issue
Update: Tried several apps and I can say that the media lockscreen is maybe integrated to google play music and default music app. Just hope that someone will make a workaround about this
I found a solution!!!!!!!!!!
1. Go to Notifications & Status Bar --> Notifications Management meju and from there enable Poweramp to be visible on lock screen
OR
From the notification that appears whilr playing music drag it right or left slightly unless you see a gear button, click on that and change lock screen settings
2. If no notifications are displaying on the lockscreeb you might need to adjust your lockscreen notification settings. ENABLE "show all notification and their contnts" in lock screen setting.
