Hi Guys,
I had been using Samsung Note series since Note 2. Recently switching to Huawei Mare 20 Pro as Note 9 (Samsung) doesn't impress me with innovation anymore.
But i kind of miss the "Swipe Down Notification" gesture on Samsung phone, since i am new to EMUI, beside using 3rd party launcher, is there anyway to enable it. If not, i think Huawei should look into this as this is really useful for me and may be to others user too. The current swipe down gesture on home screen of Mate 20 Pro, it open up something like search function which not useful at all.
#Huawei #Mate 20 Pro #EMUI
In settings you can add a button to the navigation bar that is dedicated to opening the notifications.
I personally find this button much more comfortable and quick than a swipe.
I've gotten used to the gestures too. Really wish there was an gesture to swipe down the notification bar
Just found your thread.
I got my device yesterday and I'm using the gestures (although there is a learning curve), with my old phone (Mate 10 Pro) I used to use Nova and could swipe down anywhere on the home screen or use the fingerprint sensor to bring the notification bar down. Now with the issues with Nova not working with Huawei's gestures, I'm sticking with EMUI launcher, I just wish there were a few more tweaks we could change.
I am able to use Nova launcher and gestures fine, what issues do you mean?

When u swipe up to go home it brings up the recent tabs, or it'll bring up recent tabs for a second and then go to home screen, very glitchy but i can deal with it.

I mean when u at home screen, on Samsung phone, u may swipe down to show notification but you not able to do so on EMUI.
Using Nova here, no issues with gestures.

Hmm interesting, I've not tried Nova because I read there were issues! Will install and see if I get issues.
I read about the issues too, but decided to try it. I'm using Nova gestures and not system gestures (so still using 3 button system nav) and I think that's why I'm not having issues.

Yeah, that makes sense now, I'm still trying to get used to the system gestures, it's going to take some time.
Where's that option located in settings?

Hey, you can use that feature by fingerprint scanner. Follow the below steps to enable the feature.
Go to Device Settings>Security & Privacy>Fingerprint ID>Now Enable the "Show Notification Panel" option.
Hope it would help.

That doesn't work on the mate 20 pro because it has an inscreen fingerprint scanner! I love my mate over my note 9 so much but literally this is the only thing I miss from my note, the ability to swipe down on the home screen in order to bring the notification panel down. And no I don't wanna use any third party launcher cause I like everything stock.
Any ideas anyone?
Im using Evie Lancher. In settings you have swipe down for notifications and it works very very good.
Evie Lancher is very fast and good. For now best for Mate 20 Pro. Try it

No. For now I didn't faind any bug for now.
I solved it using fluid gestures, set the quick gesture down to the right to open notifications, in addition to the infinite options of gestures on the sides, configure it to your liking, use another launcher unfortunately is not the solution, as there is always details that do not let you use multitasking well, even using fluid gestures ...
Using Nova, if you enable Swipe Down = Expand Notification then it works? It certainly does for me with Huawei Gestures enable or not.

Hey Guys,
I'm on the CM Nightly 10-23-2013 and i missed the feature to turn off Screen with double Tap. I am a big Fan of the Apexlauncher, so i googled and somebody already did a request to implement a feature to turn of screen with a double tap.
Would be nice if some of you who use Apex too, would chime in and vote for that Feature

http://apexlauncher.uservoice.com/f...estions/4396595-double-tap-to-turn-off-screen
I have used Apex for years and love it. Check under "Behavior settings". Under "Gestures" is Double tap desktop. Assign the app Screen off and lock to it. Now you have tap to sleep or knock off. It works flawlessly and may be even better than the stock LG implementation. Works with Nova also.
I'am currently using this solution, but i'am a fan of native solutions which doesn't require a third party app

Yup - its built into the Kernel that's why knock on still works.
While I think it would be a very good option to provide, I currently use double tap to open my app drawer. I also don't use Apex any more. I've converted to Action Launcher, Aviate, and Nova Prime.
Just providing some input though. Apex was my favorite launcher at one time. I moved away because there was a period when it started getting really laggy and buggy. Once I got comfortable with Nova I just never went back.

So then you know nova has the double tap off gesture as well
i want this implemented in apex too. been wanting it since day one. but for now i'm happy with using Lock Screen app and triggering the action with a double tap.

Yes as I said, I use that feature. Works like a champ.
you can already do that, install this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock
Then go into apex settings and set gestures, double tap, and set it to lunch the app.
Problem solved
Or if you have Greenify, which is one of my default apps. You can do double tap hibernate + lockscreen.
just install any "lock screen" app and assign it for doubletap gesture
Hey, I just found this on XDA and I thought why not share it with you: https://www.xda-developers.com/iphone-x-gestures-android-guide/
I use this app: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BaUybE_oqcneYGWHC3XSD1l33RReeSmO/view?usp=drivesdk
For me it has no impact on battery life or performance. I'm on NOS 8.1, but it should work fine on any ROM. I disabled the buttons from the personalizations settings, so they don't interfere with the gestures.
I'm using a swipe up for going home, swipe left-to-right and right-to-left for back, swipe up and down for recents, swipe left and right for split screen and long press for Google Assistant (you need the "More shortcuts" app for that), but you can customize the gestures pretty much any way you want.

Right ??.
I was annoyed by nova (and other) launchers delaying the launch of an app. There was a noticeable delay whenever I'd launch from the home screen.
For those that want their phone lightning fast, but also want a better launcher than the pixel launcher, here is an xposed mod that fixes it. The thread explains the how and why, but I assure you my phone has never been so fast.
Enjoy.

It's subtle. I use a swipe launcher and when I'd use the pixel launcher with it, the apps from the pixel launcher ran immediately and the apps from the swipe launcher delayed, or vice versa. I started messing with it and found it somehow related to the home screen. It also exhibits when running shortcuts.
So I ran into this - (pretty sweet nav bar replacement) https://www.xda-developers.com/navigation-gestures-update-app-launch-android-p/
and the author says if you run into delays use thatx xposed module. I did and all the delays were eliminated.
I'm not on something - you might not notice it until it's gone. Unless you don't run xposed, then maybe it's more work. Give it a try... or don't. Made a difference for me.

This is amazing how useful this Exposed module is with gestures navigation. Unfortunately Exposed affects Safety Net and I'm unable to use my banking apps even with Magisk hide on. Can someone make an apk file instead of Exposed module???

Everywhere launcher is a gesture based navigator that uses the accessibility service to bypass the 5 sec delay. Navigation gestures (sweet navbar replacement) also bypasses the delay.
Beyond that have no idea.

I didn't know Navigation Gestures bypasses it. Thanks. Currently I'm using Edge Gestures app. Works flawlessly. I wrote to it's developer to implement this solution. If not probably NG will be my choice.

Edge gestures is pretty nice. Way simpler than everywhere launcher. I set left to home, right to back, and up to recents.
I launch from the launcher, so no delays regardless. I went to a completely launcher only solution when I went to pie, as no xposed.

Looks like you find a sweet spot. After I contacted Edge Gestures Dev I downloaded Navigation Geatures app and after setting it I can find it is convenient and works great with no delay as you mention before. Now my Galaxy S8 with Renovate Ice ROM, Substratum overlays and a few additional mods it's a flagship killer ?

Sweet . I'm hiding my nav bar completely using navigation gestures (pill is hidden too) and using Edge gestures as my nav. Swipe right for home, swipe left for back (hold for previous app), up for home (hold for recents).
So nice to have 0 real estate for nav.
Cheers :good:

Since available I'm on permanent immersive mode. In RICE I have 0px for navigation bar height too. Also for about 3 years I'd prefer only gestures navigation method. Since I switched back from iOS (almost 5 years) and BB10 OS (dead) I can't imagine using my phone without gestures. Of course as a die hard Blackberry user I had a never ending ROTFL when Apple "reinvented" gestures navigation for iPhone X. My phone needs to be MINE!
After using native gestures on OnePlus 6 and Note 9 (One Hand Operation+) I'm 100% sure I will use gestures instead of navigation bar even if I have to give up Nova Launcher, but so far all the youtube videos I've seen there is no gesture to switch to last app which is something I use very often.
I was hoping I didn't have to install another gesture app on top of native gestures
Am I missing something is there a gesture to jump QUICKLY to last app? Or you have to swipe+hold/wait+swipe+tap everytime you want to go to previous app?
Could at least knuckle gestures do that or they're just for screenshots, split-scren and launch apps?
Up until now I haven't found a way to quickly switch between the last 2 apps. Hope they will include a new gesture with a future update
I ended up purchasing the app "edge gestures", previous app works really well on the Note 9 if I enable the "force previous app" option and it uses a faster animation as well, what's on the screenshot is all I wanted that is missing on native gestures, I'll see how it goes on Mate 20 pro I hope system doesn't kill the "edge gestures" app every few minutes
EDIT: I was forgetting about google assistant, I guess I'll set tap and hold for that as I will disable the option to launh google assistant with native gestures so it doesn't interfere with the edge gestures app
EDIT 2: okay I think "oneplus gestures" app will be better if ot doesn't interfere with native gestures from bottom center
TIP: Download NCleaner to get rid of constant notification "X app displaying over other apps" use the option "ongoing notification hider"
This is a great tip, thank you for it!
Whenever I have an app lock the screen (Edge gestures or Nova) it usually locks the screen and the phone immediately unlocks itself again. Do yo experience the same? Any fix that you know of?

Happens to me if you have faceunlock on and it detects your face. What I do is point it slightly away from my face when I double tap to turn off screen and its fine.
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Turns out that disabling the Direct Unlock (as opposed having to swipe up again after face unlock unlocks the phone) also resolves this.
Annoying either way, not sure why it recognises face again after locking the screen.

On Poco or Nova launcher phone will vibrate and show multitasking after swipe up form bottom screen to back home.

I'm using Fluid GN with Nova right now and am having some issues. First, if I close the Fluid GN app from task list, the gestures stop working. For some reason, the service doesn't seem to persist.

Open settings and search for Battery Optimisations. Then find Fluid NG and make sure its "Not Allowed". Generally you need to do this for any app you need in the background.

I also found you need to activate "home action compatibility" under "advanced"
Is this an issue only Huawei can fix or is it possible for Nova Launcher to eventually work around it? Fluid is a nice stopgap but it just isn't as good as the phones native gestures.
I find fluid a lot better, actually. Much more customisable and more actions to be set.
Agreed, I actually like the functionality fluid a lot more than the stock one. It's just a shame the animations aren't as good though. It's fine for now though.
maybe disable the huawei gestures and use the xda navigation gestures app or an other not native app
Did you guys use ADB with Fluid N.G. or did you just install it as is?
