No google feed on homescreen - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi all,
Just set up my Australian version of the mate 20 Pro and it's going fairly smoothly however I noticed that I don't have "Google feeds" option in my home screen settings (see screen shot). Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Maybe it depends on your provider or country

As far as I know, EMUI comes with a feed called "HiBoard" and the default launcher only seems to support that. You can use NovaLauncher to get the google feed working though (in theory).

On mine theres an option in Home screen settings to enable Google feed by swiping right on the homescreen, I've mine disabled but it was on by default.
I get to it using settings, home screen & wallpaper, home screen settings, its then at the bottom for me.
I'm not using any 3rd party launchers, stock.
DOH! just managed to see your screenshot and mine is where HiBoard is on yours.

euro versions have google feed. chinese/int versions have hiboard

It's just as easy to click on the little G in the Google now search bar widget that some people including myself keep on homescreen.

You have any special themes or how do you reach the pref -> lp widget settings -> facebook -> logon -> allow lp to reach your facebook , and this last allow lp to reach your facebook just dont work! Cant scroll scroll down to it
And when i can scroll down to the allow button i cant push it!

yeah launcher pro is working gr8
It's the first app I install when update to 2.1. Never though of the other launcher again. Especially like the friends widget showing you feeds from facebook and twitter and the ability to reply or comment from your homescreen unlike the crappy timescape which is slow to update and use browsers to do any action.

- Scrolls to the buttom of the page (by swiping upwards on the screen) NOT removing my finger from the screen
I can se both buttons at the buttom right corner as long as I keep my finger on the screen, but it is still not possible to press the button.

Holy mother of battery power Changed my phone setup to use Launcher Pro instead of ADW launcher. Having all other settings such as number of home screen, widget placement and refresh time on widgets the same. I have gone from recharging every 3-4 hours to the phone lasting a whopping full day Seems like ADW was clashing big time with something on the phone.
I like the speed and response time. It is much faster than ADW, and there is the promise of more speed once the complete rewrite of Launcher Pro comes Very happy LP Plus user here
I am using this launcher (very good app) but i have a problem. At Android system info in section Tasks I have task "android.process.acore(package: com.fede.launcher)" which is running with 100% CPU.
Do you have something similar?
(my english is not good)
Got the paid version today like the htc sense hope to see clock and weather widgets aswell but awesome launcher turns the x10 mini into a beast.

Problems Setting Up Nova Launcher Prime 4.2.0 On Huawei Ascend Mate 2

Just installed Nova Launcher Prime on my new Ascend Mate 2 but for some strange reason I can't find anything in the settings about setting up home pages. When I installed it on my previous phone (same maker and model), that info was under Desktop in the settings if I recall correctly. But I've gone through the Desktop settings over and over and can't find anything about setting up home pages. I've looked in other areas of the settings and still have not found anything. Any suggestions/help would be appreciated.

What do you mean by "setting up home pages"? How to add a page or set one page as default home screen? You can long press on any launcher screen to open up an additional menu. There you'll have a small home screen icon above each page. Simply navigate to the page you want to set as default home page and click on this icon.

Thanks Orville87 for your help. I was just able to accomplish both tasks, that of designating a home page and adding an additional page. Too bad things aren't clearer in the settings. Things were much clearer when I installed the free version of the app on my previous phone.

Chrome browser not available as home page after update?

Ok so my phone (LG G5) has recently seen a host of updates from Google. Currently on V7.0. quite simply I'm stuck with the Google app as a default homepage like so
https://flic.kr/p/YaKCPg
Whereas I'm used to and would like to keep the original like this
https://flic.kr/p/ZbTzaR
I've double checked my settings and the homepage is definitely Google as pushing the home icon brings it up. Is there a work round to get the original back in a new tab without having to push 'home' every time?
Many thanks. Hope this hasn't already been asked and the links work ok.
Did you check home screen settings in the chrome?
I believe it's a change in chrome. So roll back to older version and give it a try.

Yep. My chrome homepage is google.co.uk which works when you tap the home button just not when you open a new tab.

I have Google Feed when I swipe from left to right, on the default Huawei lanucher.
Try to press the wallpaper on the home screen or pinch in with two fingers. You should see a bunch of options appearing (Wallpaper, Widgets, etc). Press Settings and on the bottom make sure Google Feed is turned on.

Long press on the home button until Google Assistant starts, then swipe up. Lots more options to customize, voice commands, etc. The icon in blue on the screenshot will also take you from the main assistant screen to this. It's also on the news screen on the bottom.
Hit the button top right gets you another way into the assistant side of things and some of the other cards that used to be in the feed.
