Hello to the lucky ones who have their m30p with google play...
Just wondering, were you able to change the Launcher on your phones to replace EMUI 10 Launcher?
I read here and there, that Huawei blocked third party launchers on the chinese variants of their phones (from EMUI 8)... is this true? Is it possible to make it work via ADB on this EMUI 10?
I haven't got mine yet, but so far my research is no, you can't. There are other apps to disable packages, I will try them but so far it is not positive.
Back to your question, if that is true. Yes, it is.
They blocked that due to fraud replaces their stock launcher with a mock one that have ads or malicious behaviors and sell it to ppl who are not techy.
I thought that excuse is lame since there are other default apps to replace.
mine is not here until Monday. I think i have read in the forums that the stock can disabled with ADB.
ADB does not work for me...
pm uninstall gives the [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR]
suggestions welcome

From what I keep reading it's not possible on the Chinese version.

Doesn't work for me still, but if it will eventually - could you kindly explain what settings you changed?
And what you proceeded to do to remove the stock launcher? (Regular adb uninstall method?)
Thanks!

Sorry I didn't change stock launcher I was speaking in regards to the project menu( didn't seem to always appear but will eventually.
I have done all of this but the app says cant disable/uninstall the Huawei home apk contact us for more support
I've spent a lot of time trying to get round this on my Mate 30 Pro.
I've tried every vector I can think of and no dice yet sadly!
Today I had update 132 on my LIO AL00 and now I can use Nova launcher as the default launcher.
IGNORE THAT . When it rebooted after update it asked me if I wanted to use Nova or Hauwei Home.. Now its defaulted back to Huawei Home and no option for Nova
Anyone? I'm almost going to sell it just because I cant have Nova as default launcher?

You can't on the china version but on the international you can change the default launcher.
I don't think there is a solution as of now, maybe we have to live with default Huawei launcher for some time.

I have been using Nova across many versions/devices, including Mate 9 since US release. Today I retried ADW Launcher 2, though I don't know how/why it had anything to do with it.
I noticed my Mate 9 Camera icon was the little green android icon, with app name com.huawei.camera. Hmmm. Same across Huawei, Nova, or ADW launchers
Finding no separate camera app other than that, let's try to take a picture. Nothing. Icon clicks delays a second and stays on the homescreen. Nothing.
Now I can't see any apk or way to update/re-add the app. Can't seem to even have a 3rd party app work.
Help
I would like to help but the only way is to flash full rom, and since that is not possible till now so the only option you have is to use funkyhuawei.
Or give it to your service center if the device still under warranty, they have offline package that can be flash it manually

No, it doesn't work for the US ROM yet. If you want to use it on a US device, you'd have to rebrand.
In the upcoming weeks support for the US version will be added, but we need to wait for Huawei to release a US firmware full update before that can happen.

Thank you very much for the quick heads up. Will grab credits, but will go cameraless hopefully will be a new one with Alexa etc.
Just curious, do any other apps work that use the camera?
If so, could you use a third party camera app temporarily?

There shouldn't way that app was deleted because it should be a system file. Did you check under system>app to see if it's there? If not do a factory reset, it should show up.
It is deleted
I'm having this exact problem...any solution please?
factory reset didn't help...tried
Can't live without the pixel launcher no more, and the speed it adds to the p20 pro is superb.
Have been through pretty much every launcher and this adds to a better user experience.
The version i'm using is P-4623511 -modded-5.2.0
New themeable launcher here.

You have to manually give all permissions before opening for the fist time.
Strange Huawei bug with many custom launchers it would seem.

The link in the op works on non rooted handsets (it did on mine anyway!)
Be sure to give the app all available permissions BEFORE you run it for the first time or it will crash.

How are you guys getting this to work? I installed Launcher3-aosp-optimized.apk then updated the permissions but I can't run it. I would have expected to just press the home button and it would ask which launcher I want to use but that doesn't happen.

New gesture aminations its feels phone is slow like syrup. I hope it can be turned off soon
Even worse if you use rootless luncher
Works quite well for me. The animation is just as fast, its just different, some people will like it, some wont. But personally, i think, with a little tweaking in further updates, the animation will look very good. They're trying to mimics the iphone app closing animation i think.
No prob here... Using stock launcher really smooth animations... updated from stable...
I'm fine with the animations except the super slow (maybe twice as slow?) home gesture animation... Any idea how to disable or change it? I know I can turn off animations under accessibility options... But I just want the home swipe to be immediate not change everything else.

I just hope Nova somehow implements proper animations for this. Or maybe someone will make a Magisk mod or something.

You could also freeze the OnePlus Launcher if your using a different one. That will give you the Oreo recents.

This worked before the new gesture is implemented. Now if you freeze the OP Launcher, the Oreo recents will only show when you use navigation bar. The gesture will do nothing when you try to swipe "home"..
I'm sharing another Tasker made app with one simple purpose: get you into the hidden App Notifications menu so you can change notification sounds. As many of you know this menu is not accessible through system settings. There are many methods of accessing it, including Nova, Tasker, or other shortcut managers but they all require work and a bit of knowledge. This app makes it simple for anyone. Even advanced users may find it handy.
It does not require root or any special privilege. Simply launch the app to enter the App Notification menu. This accesses the built in Android notification management system and is simply the best way to manage your notification settings.
Please hit thanks if you find it useful ?
(Because of the nature of this workaround it will only work on the official EMUI 8.1 release for now. No custom ROM or beta support, sorry. Once I've updated to 9 I'll share the new fix if necessary. I have Canadian L04 model though and updates happen here slowly)
Not working for me (P20 Pro EMUI 9 Beta). App doesn't launch when tapped.

I don't have 9 yet but I'd assume you'll find it in settings under Notifications where it should be. AFAIK it was unintentionally left out in 8.1 which is why we had trouble. If it's included in 9 a simple search through settings should reward you. ?
Works perfect, thanks!
Works perfect.

Apparently you do not understand what we're trying to accomplish. You cannot change notification sounds in the menu you refer to in EMUI 8, only turn them off. But there is a secret hidden menu that allows to change any notification sound for any app you like. It may look similar to the one you are thinking of but if you know what you're doing it is very different, there are far more options available. You cannot get to this menu by any other means than sending an intent, whether via command, a shortcut from a launcher or an app like I've shared. Trust me, there is a purpose for this or I wouldn't have so many thanks for it already. But if you're okay with having the same notification sound for every single app on your phone that's cool too. Whatever floats your boat. ?
We can use Nova Launcher to create a shortcut that link to this Notification settings in this thread.

You can use Nova Launcher to do this, yes. Other methods all involve installing a shortcut creation app of some kind and finding the correct settings entry. This app is for people who do not use Nova or would prefer a simple method with the hard work done for them. It's a pain digging through all those settings entries if you don't need to. ?

This app saved my sanity after switching from a LG G5 to the P20 Pro. Many thanks!
I'm sorry, but to change the sound for any app I go to config/applications/aplications/ choose the application I want then manage notification then sound and choose what I want... Using pie with a L29. I came from a custom pie rom on an oneplus 2 and, as i remember, I use to do it like that also... Did I missed something? Sorry about my English.
Change log added. Adds launcher option in default apps. Oops-cannot reset to third party launchers once Huawei Home is selected. See screen shot. I cannot switch to Nova.
Is this the Chinese version or the international unlocked?
Chinese
Sooo... If by chance you want to use Huawei home they take u hostage...
