Touch-Disable-Mode - Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi H7 community,
iam pretty new to my H7 (few days now) and i am verry happy with that phone.
i could not figure what exactly the touch disable mode does and how it works.
it seems like it does disable the touchscreen when its in my pocket/bag to prevent the user to wake it up unwanted.
how does the phone does it, is it useing different sensors to regocnize if its in a bag/pocket? this would mean i can deactivate it to lower the powerconsumption a little bit?!
thank you in advance for your answers.
greetings
xetro

I just found the solution. Hallelujah!
Download the Settings Database Editor app on Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by4a.setedit22
In the System Table screen, scroll down to the bottom towards the 'T' section and find "Touch Disable Mode 1". Tap on it and change it to 0 to turn it off and hit save.
Please thank if it works for you ?

Starting phone from standy in landscape mode

So I have a habit of sliding the phone open and then pressing the hardware messaging key, and no matter what, it never seems to work. I press the button, and Ill see the today screen, but no messaging window. I have to slide it back closed and open again and everything sorts itself out.
I've tried looking, but haven't seen anyone complain about this particular problem. Anyone else fret about this? any solutions?
no one has this problem?

I find my X01HT in landscape mode when i wake him um with the "on" button, and have to wait for it to "think" a litle bit to obey me, while that, if I try to push any command he will go crazy and the image will stay locked in the last scene and will not get actualized... Kind of annoying thing, using black Satin... But i'll try schaps now to see if that goes away...

Im on WM5.
Vijay, I don't want to disable orientation permanently. Just sometimes, I want to start messaging, so in stanby mode itself, ill open and start it up. thats what confuses the 8525, thats all. I have to close the phone, and then slide it open again for it to regain consciousness!
Its no biggie, but i was just wondering if any1 else had a similar issue.
FINALLY... WHAT YOU HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR

I've come to notice that no one REALLY knew how to fully disable screen rotation on WM devices.
Some offered 3rd party apps to get the job done, some only knew how to disable automatic rotation, but when the device went into standby and woke up again - the screen rotated back. So that didnt really work.
So if you're as desperate as i was about screen rotation,
this is what you need to do:
1. Get dotfred's free taskmanager HERE, and run it.
2. Go to "Devices" tab, and look for "MIS1:" device (oem_misc.dll)
3. Long-Tap on it, and tap on "Stop"
4. Long-Tap on it again, and now choose "Set Manual"
5. Go to "Notifications" tab, and look for "Notifications\NamedEvents\VCPowerWakeupEvent"
6. Tap on it to make it selected
7. Disable it
(In dotfred's taskmanager, there should be a button for disabling it, but for some reason some devices couldn't see the button icons, although the buttons are still clickable. Under the notifications list there is an empty light-blue line - the buttons are there, eventough you can't see them.
The disable buttons is somewhere i the middle of that light-blue line, just tap the center until a message box popps up and asks if you'd like to disable this notification - Tap on yes.)​All those steps are a one time deal - they stick even after an SR.
This has been tested on htc universal and works great.
The screen will keep its orientation even if you flip your screen, take out your built in keyboard, or turn the device off and back on.
The only time your screen will revert back to the original orientation is when you soft reset your device.
Hope this helps

HD2 MorphGear Settings = Frustrating?

Hey guys im currently trying to change my morphgear screen settings to 150% but whenever i try to change it it just goes back to 100% yes ive read a lot of threads spent 3 hours looking for solutions but still no luck could anyone help me? should i buy a stylus? or should i use my tooth pick lol (it wouldnt work. Believe me i even used my tongue to press the 150% selection) I have no idea how to regedit it and what screen size should i use to make half of the screen the gba game then the other half is the controller help me please im really hungry and sleepy!
well it was a very hot topic in the morphgear port thread... they suggested to use the back button or something to make the settings "stick" in place... I don't remember and wouldn't know, since any methos i use simply works... anyway you'd better check the thread over at the themes and apps forum in the hd2 section, or to be faster, this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593464
hey mate this happened to me as well, you just keep pressing the SCREEN SIZE again once its highlighted and it will scroll through the options
get a registry editor and In the registry go to HKCU - software - morphgear - (module you want to set eg gameboyadvance) - screensize (change value from 100% to window size)
i found the solution i used the on screen keyboard to save the settings (click the settings that you want to change then use the arrow keys to select it the press enter) for example
-Click screensize
-then open the onscreen keyboard
-then use the arrow keys to navigate up and down through sizes 100% 125% etc.
-press enter on your desired screen size OMG it worked! hahaha thanks guys for helping me out
For me, it works fine. What you need to do is 'double tab' or 'tab repaetly' at the setting icon to change the setting.
It takes me quite long time to find this out as well. Enjoy.
Note: I'm on MorphGear2.4.0.9_HD2v0.8

[Q] Lock Screen on closing Keyboardslider

Hi there,
i want to ask if it is possible to lock the screen, when I shut the keyboard slider or even better: Auto-Lock if the keyboard slider is shut AND there is no new input in the next 2 seconds?
I googled, but didnt find a way :/
Thank you,
Linkin

Sounds like something Tasker can do. tasker.dinglisch.net
Thank you very much. That looks great! I dont have much time right now, but I will look into this on tuesday!
Only problem is: The app is about 5 €... :
https://market.android.com/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm&feature=search_result
Dont get me wrong, I will totally pay the 5 € for this app if it works, but since the policy change, I only got 15 minutes to try the app (which isnt nearly enough!).
Has anyone got the app and might try it, before i buy it???
Thank you!
I created a profile "Not Keyboard Out" -> System lock.
When Im closing the keyboard it's locking the screen
I guess it's probably possible to tweak it to lock after a few seconds.
There should be a 7 day trial of tasker on the homepage. I tested that one just a few weeks ago.
Tasker is great for other things too. I use it to set silent mode after 10pm and when I'm at the office (since it can detect your location) and a few other tricks to control Latify to switch mode depending on if I'm home or not..
i tried it out. It works great, thanks!
You have to make a profile:
Not Keyboard Out (and enable INVERT here!)
-> System Lock
However, I have NOT found a way to give me 2 seconds to prevent the lockscreen. What I've found out:
option a:
Changed "execute" to menu and created another action "vibrate for 1 ms" which i called "use screen". So now i can choose between use the screen and locking it. BUT the timeout is 10 seconds which is pretty much not what i wanted :/
option b:
set display timeout to 7 seconds (is minimum!)
make another option which uses the event "system lock" to set it back to 30 seconds.
but this isnt as good either, because when I dont want to lock it i have a 7 seconds timeout till the next locking... which is pretty short
option c:
can someone how got more skills with tasker help me?

Screen pinning

Once screen pinned, then it's not coming to normal state by pressing and holding the back and recents buttons together.
Can anyone help me
Any update
Nope still the same on stable MIUI 10 global. Which is disaster especially if you use navigation gestures as it's very easy to pin the screen. Does anyone on Android P beta experience the same issue?
BTW I'm on MIUI 10.1.3.0 (Poco f1). I've tried everything to turn on Screen pinning but I couldn't find that under settings. Please help.
How to avoid screen pinning.
I have found a way to avoid restart when screen pinned button is pressed accidentally which is always annoying.
Method: When screen pinned button is pressed it will show you instructions to unpin. Just press the power key, there you go you have successfully avoided the screen to be pinned.
Note: Don't press ok button when it shows how to unpin, if pressed ok then only way to get out is restart.
This method will work for both button and full screen gestures users
Hope I've helped.:angel:

Yyayyy indeed that works! Thanks buddy as it's been so annoying since I've been using full screen gestures for navigation and would always have to restart the phone. Thank you
Steps to activate/disable Screen pinning:
- Install Settings Database Editor ( play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by4a.setedit22 ). Add https://
- Open App and go to "System Table"
- Find or Create a key (it didn't exist in my case, so I created it) with name "lock_to_app_enabled" and set value "1" (ON) or "0" (OFF)
Tested in miui global beta 9.3.21 and works flawlessly.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, this "feature" has been really getting on my nerves, and I've managed to get out of the screen pinning by getting tap happy with the buttons and keys but without really working it out and not wanting to test. Well I got stuck in it again today to the point of Googling again for a solution (which I didn't find), but I found my own so thought i'd post it, i'm using a Xiaomi Mi 9 running MIUI Global 10.2.30 but expect the same to apply to the POCOPHONE F1 also.
When your screen is pinned press the physical power button and the home (middle) soft button and screen pinning will be removed, hopefully that helps someone else out !
How you pin your screen? I am new in miui (10.3.8.0) please help.
I use full screen mode.
I couldn't find any option to pin screen
Yes bro it works fine and now i can use DMR in oubg for tap tap tapp Thanks bro

This technique also works on RN8PRO running EEA MIUI 11.0.2.0. Many thanks for sharing the tip as it is a really useful feature.
However would anyone of you know how to enable password feature when unpinning?
Since that pinning feature does not seem to be 'supported' natively by our Xiaomi phones I'd be curious to know what key to add to also have the password supported when unpinning.
I'd guess we could get that value from any other phone running stock android and supporting the pinning feature natively.
Thanks
UPDATE:
Sharing if it may interest someone like me.
So I grabbed my old non MIUI phone and dig its settings.
Turns out we can enable lock on unpinning by just adding an other simple value key in Secure table.
To be allowed to do so, you first need to grant extra permission to app through adb:
It may not be the case for all devices but for my RN8PRO I needed root (su) to apply the adb command.
Code:
pm grant by4a.setedit22 android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
Once permission granted, select Secure table, and add the following new key:
Code:
lock_in_app_exit_locked 1
All set, you will now be asked to unlock screen once you unpin pinned app by long pressing back.
Hope this helps.

MLS Maic "smart" assistant location problem! Please help :/

Hello good people! I did a factory reset because this device was not working good and it was really buggy, I did this before when i had problem with the device, but now I'm stuck at location selection and can't pass it! Please take a look at my pictures, to clear the situation.
I'm seeking for help for months now, so, if anyone can help me, I will be really grateful
Thank you, Marko
I have the sam problem
Anyone please ?
So! For whoever visits this thread in the future I found a way to escape from MLS default app and use this device as tablet. The process is easy and can be done in a couple of minutes:
1) While you set up the device you are asked to connect to wifi. When entering the password a keyboard pops up. Long press on the spacebar and press "Voice".
2) Then a Voice prompt pops up with a settings gear on the left, click this and a new pop up will appear.
3) On the top right side click Help & Feedback and Browser will open.
4) If you previously connected to wifi now you have a fully working browser (you dont need to be connected to internet). In the browser top right corner click the 3 dots and tap on "share page"
5) A popup will appear with two options.
6) Long press on the Bluetooth icon and go to bluetooth settings.
7) From there If you swipe from the left the setting navigation bar will appear.
8) Now you can unlock adb debugging etc.
Notes:
MLS MAIC 3D app is being used as a default launcher so you need to sideload another launcher e.g discreet launcher and use that as default app.
Make sure to disable Bot Tester, MLS Updater, Video Calls and all other MLS related apps.
Somethings are broken e.g. downloading from the default browser crashes (use bluetooth, usb sideloading or another browser)
Recents button is disabled
Notification bar is disabled
There arent any google services - so no playstore -. I personally use F-droid
Congrats now you have a fully working android tablet
Cheers
