[UMIDIGI F1] Android P customizations, dark theme, gesture navigation - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The Umidigi F1 is supposed to come with stock Android P; however, it seems that some features have been removed or disabled.
I can't find how to enable the Android P Dark Theme.
I can't figure out how to enable full screen gesture navigation or how to swap the back and recents buttons in the navbar.
I'm sure there are other things as well.
Can I use adb to enable those settings?
Is there some other way to re-enable these basic Android P features?

Swapping the back and recents buttons are in the Smart Assistant option in Settings. There you can also find the Umidigi version of navigation gestures.
As for Dark Theme, I have no idea, myself. The option's for sure not there by default.
I'm hopeful that someone will develop some custom roms for it, myself. The stock rom is not as smooth as I know vanilla Android is, and you can't turn on the battery % on the notification bar. Screen size is not adjustable, either.

I've randomly experienced a kind of dark mode in the notifications and volume control but can't consistently replicate it. It seems to be triggered by a dark wall paper. I have a dark wall paper and have dark volume control, but pull down notifications/menu are still white.
Download a cool little app called Powershade from the store. You can style your notifications/menu to whatever you like. You'll need to enable Powershade in Duraspeed to prevent it being stopped.
The stock Pie pill gesture isn't there, only 'slippy' gestures which constantly kick you back the home screen when typing (aka Sloppy gestures). This could easily be fixed by reducing the active area to one pixel, it currently sits over the space bar.
That, along with:
- Not supporting launchers
- Issues with photos being completely messed up (masses of low resolution duplicates)
- Constantly backward facing GPS indicator
- Unable to send images via whatsapp
- Power and earphones plugged in creates unbearable interference
...have made this phone unusable for me. Updates are too slow to depend on them and have so far just caused even more issues. Its such a shame, it could have been a great value for money phone, but turned out to be too good to be true.
I'm returning mine to Amazon. For a few pounds more I can get something I'm not constantly battling with.

Took this from an Umidigi forum, it works
:As for quickstep issue, all you guys have to do is to remove the package and it'll work flawlessly, even with custom launchers(I'm using Nova).
This is only temporarily until you factory reset OR OTA update the device.
1) Download minimal adb fastboot package from here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754459552
2) Go to Settings > System > About Phone and tap on "build number" about 8 times. You should see a message saying: "You are a developer now"
3) Back to the previous menu and you should see now a new item called "Developer options", go there, find and enable "USB debugging".
4) Now connect the phone to the PC via USB and select "Transfer files" on the phone.
5) Open a command line and go to the directory you extracted the adb tools to.
6) Run the command "adb devices", your device should shown. If not, you need to check the drivers.
7) Run "adb shell"
8) Run "pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.launcher3". It should show "success".
9) Reboot the device and you will be able to multitask until either factory reset OR update.

I just got two of these yesterday. Getting mine setup this morning. I have no problem with the phone charging through USB and playing music out my headphones- the audio is perfectly clear. I also installed whatsapp and had no problems sending a photo to a friend, and she got it. I see my gps on google maps just fine and it seems to work as intended. I've not tried any other launchers, yet, but I REALLY like this phone for the price point. Sad there isn't more activity on here from folks who have them.

That would be pretty nice to have, but I think phones that support DT2W have to have hardware support for sensing the taps while off like most LG and HTC phones have. I'm using Glimpse notifications to get the screen wake for notifications like every phone should already have stock Yes, even though it's not AMOLED, it's got a 5150 mah battery FFS! 5 seconds of screen on a few times a day won't cost anything noticeable. And it hasn't either for 2 weeks I've been using it.
I too wonder if they'll ever get any kind of theming going though. That would sure be nice!

Umidigi f1 PLAY

Download SwiftKey keyboard. it allows u to move the keyboard up. basically fixing the sloppy slippery .

Double tap is enabled by default by the way. It's just not 100% like the app. Sometimes it requires more than two taps
First impressions,
Very nice ROM. Has many of the features that I had apps to do (e.g. Battery %, Double tap to Wake,
Other than that, everything works great. Haven't tested the speakers or sound or video just yet. Using LeanKernel beta2 with this ROM right now.
Edit: removed the points that are clarified

Some observations, you mention double tap is enabled by default. It wasn't, it has to be activated in Settings > Display.
Also in Dev Options > Kill app back button.. when enabled, it doesnt kill the app. I believe this option wasn't in stock dev options.

There's a difference for the double tap in display settings. That's for tap to sleep. Nexus 6 had double tap to wake like the OPO or HTC one, but google disabled it. I'll look into the killing app.
Holding back does kill the app. You just need to hold onto it a little bit longer. I'll shorten it so it makes more sense with the haptic feedback.

Ahh right, its still early for me holding back does kill the app, you're right again on that. I was testing kill Settings.apk instead of another app.
Maybe you could possibly add the option that lets the user change the kill rate to be lessen or greater. I've seen this in previous ROMs as well as possibly add Double tap to wake disable/enable in Display for those who are afraid if their screen turn on since the double tap to wake doesn't check for proximity sensor
Big fan of your work, thanks!
Does this have expanded desktop or immersive mode?
OK Google "Always On" is greyed out and can't be toggled. Downloaded offline language pack as well and still is grey.

Is there a way for us to turn off that feature permanently (persist through reboot)? I had it on my G2 and it was a terrible feature for me. Causes way too many wakeups in my pocket, leading to locked phone if I have security on lockscreen or doing all kinds of stuff in my pocket if I dont have a password to unlock. Much better to just not use the feature and then I dont get random wakeups.
other than that it looks like almost everything I want in a ROM. The one feature left that I am still looking for is being able to switch around nav buttons, then Im set. I think I can do it by hardcoding the changes I want though so its all good.

I'm looking into it. I'm gonna try to include what cm created with checking proximity when waking up device. If that doesn't work out, I might disable it by default and let users decide if they want it with the app.

I've seen this before in other Android devices.
While this isn't a complete explination, it's what I've come to know
Like other smartphones, Android phones use an ambient light sensor to automatically adjust your phone’s display brightness. This often doesn’t work too well.
It’s up to each Android phone’s manufacturer to correctly calibrate the auto-brightness feature, and they generally don’t do an amazing job. The phone may go from too bright to too dim without anything in between.
Lux is a third-party app that allows you to easily calibrate your phone’s brightness sensor, saving you battery power and reducing eye strain if your phone is normally too bright in dark rooms.

Mine does that when I'm low on signal from the tower, mostly in my office which is in my basement.
I believe it does that to save battery trying to keep the cell connection up, but I could be wrong.

Has anyone tried to adjust the height of the keyboard in landscape mode? I find it too scrunched down. The settings has a slider to raise or lower it, but I can't get the slider to work in landscape mode. I think it might be a little bug. Works fine in portrait..
I'm currently using the TMO variant of the V10 (H901), and the smart lock does not seem to work when using the trusted places option. I have tried deleting all my trusted locations and re-enabling them. I have tried turning the location settings on and off. Nothing seems to help. Smart lock works fine when I have my bluetooth headset connected. Has anyone else had this issue? Any ideas what I could try to fix it? Thanks in advance.
I'm trying to root a V10 (LG-H900) on AT&T
The 'adb reboot bootloader' will only reboot it, and it does not bring up the bootloader.
How do you get into bootloader? Power + volume down does nothing.
AT&T just pushed out an update. Did they kill rooting?

Is there a way to pull down the top bar to just see the notifications such as emails etc without seeing all the settings? I could do this on my CM rom on my old note 2. Maybe I should be doing it a different way on this phone? Mainly trying to quick glance my email and archive it if necessary
I have quick question i was able to get v10 to unlock the bootloader but when i try to install twrp it says i have install but it didnt install. So when i read somewhere else in the forum. You have to do in various way. So when i try recoginize my device with adb its not recognizing. Any help will be appreciated,

Assuming you have USB Debugging checked under Developer Options,
First open "My Computer".
Watch under your Local Disk drive(s) in My Computer when you plug the phone via USB to see some kinda drive with an LG logo popping.(Beware it will disappear after a few seconds)
Once it shows then click on it; another window will open up with a few folders and files..
Look for the folder with the keyword SWUpdater in the folder name (or something close to that name).
Install the SWUpdater driver software found in it.
P.S: If it doesn't show the LG Logo type drive when you connect the phone to your computer, leave it connected then go to your notification on the phone. Click on "USB Connected" and switch between "MTP" and "PTP". That will force the LG to show under My Computer.
I did that using Windows 7 for my Verizon V10. Good Luck!!!
Ok, silly questions, but I've searched and can't find the answers...:
When using the camera app with the front camera, what is the slider at the bottom of the screen that goes from 0 to 8? Also with the ffc (in settings) , what does the icon with 2 faces (they're either facing the same way, or opposite ways) do?
So, my OK Google was saying that there was no mic, so I figured I'd uninstall and install it from the play store. Only now, the extra settings are gone. Like, the settings to say OK Google from any screen and the lock screen as well. Only option is to say it within the app. Is there any way to fix this? I'm on T-Mobile, rooted stock
Not sure if this has been mentioned, but has anyone noticed the colors on the screen occasionally going kind of greyed out.. Like lighter and more grey than usual, almost sort of inverted or grey scale, but not entirely? Its not a huge deal and it doesn't seem to last long, but happens sometimes. I haven't pinned down if it has a cause, or if it's just my phone or what. I wanna say it mainly happens outside in daylight rather than inside at night, but I'm not positive. Anyone noticed it also?
I was wondering if anyone knew. How to port roms? If so I have this rom I been using on my stylo that I would love on my v10 rom found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3265566 permission given. If you can port on me please and thank you

App is obscuring a permission request - Huawei Mate 10 Pro connecting to HiSuite

Hello guys,
I hope that my thread is started in the right sub-forum. I recently bought a Huawei Mate 10 Pro (android 8.0) and immediately started looking for ways to flash a stock android rom (lineage, RR etc.). Because I haven't used an android phone since android 6.0 I had to look for all the instructions on how to install such ROM.
At first everything was going well, but I'm currently stuck on connecting my phone to my laptop (Asus n56vz). Everytime I try to connect it via Hisuite it says: "because an app is obscuring a permissions request, Settings can't verify your responses." I added a screenshot for clarification even though it's in Dutch:

Hi!
I had the same issue, then I uninstalled the Kaspersky Antivirus and I was able to click OK to confirm HiSuite HDB option. I would probably be able to only set it up in the antivirus app but removing it was quicker ;o))) Hope that would help anybody...

Heyy guys
I had the same problem. Trying to give permission to HiSuite(my phone is Huawei p8 lite) the "Because an app is obscuring a permission request, Settings can't verify your response" popped up. I tried revoking permissions to draw over other apps to every single one of the apps, one by one, even system's apps and nothing worked.
Though, by closing all the other apps in app history worked like magic. Simple as that.. ^_^

On my phone with stock rom, I have Floating Dock but have not Navbar app shown in the 'Draw over other apps' list with 'Show system process' selected.
For me and my Mediapad M5 SHT-W09 (C567) it was FLOATING NAV ****.

FYI: Change the sound played when charger plugged in

I have used the following to change the sound that is played when the charger is plugged in.
Code:
settings put global wireless_charging_started_sounds "/storage/emulated/0/Notifications/Road Runner - Meep Meep.mp3";
settings put global charging_started_sound "/storage/emulated/0/Notifications/Road Runner - Meep Meep.mp3";
I do the above via a shell, it can also be done via ADB.

Thanks for your advice, has worked excellently on Pixel 4a.
Is it possible via a command to turn off the screen by double clicking on the status bar? My former smartphone Motorola X Play from 2015 had this feature and I miss it.

I use a VERY customize-able launcher. Its called Lightning Launcher, its a paid app but the default setup when you get it is crap. I have used it since Gingerbread and never looked back. BUT you can really do whatever your want. Including adding code. And rotating widgets and/or icons and stretching them etc etc etc
I have put gestures (ie associate code/scripts) which gestures on widgets/hidden hotspots. So, for example, if I click the left hand side of one wide widget, it acts normally and opens the weather details. However, if I click the right side, I run a script that hibernates select apps (basically all ) and then TURNS THE SCREEN OFF. I use this method instead of tapping my power button. Its easier as its on the screen I am using when I want to turn it off,and on a previous phone (Nexus 5) thepower button became notorious for failing on most.
Attached are the the scripts and the config file where I add/edit which apps to hibernate. It also has an include to renice the live wallpaper to the background
I also have it where I swipe up on another widget and it turns AOD on and swipe down turns it off. VERY handy being able to switch it on temporarily when I need to be somewhere on time and want too leave it to the last minute and know how long I got till I have to get moving.

I hate posting screen shots of my home screen, as the wallpaper is a live wall paper of the solar system, and its beautiful! as it flys between and orbits planets and sees the earth and its orbiting moon. A static image really does it injustice.
PS: My phone is also a Pixel 4A (non 5g)
Is there a certain command that can bebused in the same way to change Lock and Unlock sounds as well as touch sound? Thanks

I have not tested it, but I ran a report on all settings using the app TeMeFI and filtered it down to ones that have the word "sound" in it, and this gave the following list:
Code:
File: * LAST UNSAVED RESULTS * SEP=============================;
Include: sound
charging_sounds_enabled=1
sync_parent_sounds=0
lockscreen_sounds_enabled=1
notification_sound=content://[email protected]/external/audio/media/5028
notification_sound_set=1
sound_effects_enabled=1
car_dock_sound=/product/media/audio/ui/Dock.ogg
car_undock_sound=/product/media/audio/ui/Undock.ogg
charging_started_sound=/storage/emulated/0/Notifications/Road Runner - Meep Meep.mp3

desk_undock_sound=/product/media/audio/ui/Undock.ogg
dock_sounds_enabled=0
dock_sounds_enabled_when_accessbility=0

low_battery_sound=/product/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg
low_battery_sound_timeout=0
max_sound_trigger_detection_service_ops_per_day=1000
power_sounds_enabled=1
sound_trigger_detection_service_op_timeout=15000
trusted_sound=/product/media/audio/ui/Trusted.ogg

wireless_charging_started_sound=/product/media/audio/ui/ChargingStarted.ogg
wireless_charging_started_sounds=/storage/emulated/0/Notifications/Road Runner - Meep Meep.mp3
So I would say yes. (see lock_sound & unlock_sound). Touch sound may require a magisk module.

Nice! Thanks! I will try this. The touch sound is actually named Effect.tick.ogg I believe but still should be possible, thanks for the help!

What I am saying, it does not appear to be in the "settings", irrelevant of what its called. As I said, it will be possible using Magisk, I just did not find it in settings.

the above via a shell, it can also be done via ADB.

That's awesome! Do you think it would work the same for all Android phones or is it only for stock Android on Pixels? Asking since Samsung use their own launcher with themed system sounds.
Thanks!

I have changed to a Custom A11 Rom (Bliss), and it works. This ROM covers multiple devices.
Thank you! Does this method need root access?

I do it in a boot script, which has root, and everything i test I also default to running as root. Your going to need to test it yourself.
So Boys, how to changing it,I'm locking for the default charging sound, I using Android 11, and not able to know which program to use, also tried some cmd apps from app store, I wanna try to change, to make my own sound at the charging, I Also used Battery Sound Notification ( Device Dooge S97Pro)

Question Change Default apps including Launcher

Nubia hides the default apps deep inside settings. I even saw multiple reviewers saying it couldn't be done.
1. Download your 3rd party app/launcher
2. Settings>Applications>App Info>Tap on the three dots on the top right>Tap Default App Settings>Desktop (on the top)>select the launcher on the top.
I can finally get nova7 running as default

There is no bug? I heard Nova had some problems in Red Magic OS 4 before:
Need to know these before purchasing a RedMagic phone
Hello guys I have some questions crossed my mind before getting it : How's red magic ui skin? Is it good? Any bugs? Can you set nova launcher as default launcher without any issue? totally using a launcher instead of default redmagic launcher...
forum.xda-developers.com
Yes but if you like say are in an app and you back out too much you back to the original launcher but when you click home you get sent back to the default launcher.

So did it fix in OS 5? I want to buy this phone but not sure about its OS 5 yet.
OS 5 has a ton of bugs, the reviewer all complained about the bugs but I've had Chinese phones before so I thought I would be ok with a few bugs/spelling errors. But Its kind of ridiculous some of the bugs I've seen in the week of ownership. It took me half a day to even setup my Google acct(In redmagic's defense, it did seem like google was having purchasing issues that day with people reporting multiple purchases and failed downloads but, I could even login in. It would refuse to connect to google servers at all and I had factory reset a few time so I don't know it was google fault or Red Magic but I didn't see any complaints about login in, just purchases when searched)
There are a ton of spelling errors, words outside of boundary boxes so you cant even read what its trying to say, nonsense names/translations for settings. Phone has the weakest vibrate for notification and calls that I often miss them and if you go to settings called "vibrations and haptic strength" there is no configuration for strength, only on or off. If you select show full notifications on lockscreen they are still hidden/collapsed If you get more than one so I have to swipe open to read the notification making it pointless. I can set the clock on lockscreen to 12hr but AOD is 24hr and there is no way to change that so far. AOD also showed no notifications so whats the point. I turned off AOD The flashlight is a joke and is dim as hell.
Yes but if you like say are in an app and you back out too much you back to the original launcher but when you click home you get sent back to the default launcher.

This does happen if you don't do the steps I mentioned in the original post.

Is there anyway that you can upload your OS in here?
Ok guys i didn't know this was a thing and gave up using 3rd party launchers. But oh boy it's really working after doing that default app setting stuff and the latest update.
i recently got an update on my red magic 5 (still android 11) and yeah now i can use nova launcher even with the nubia gestures beeing the navigation method. and even after leaving gamemode and killing all tasks in recents i still get Nova launcher.
so yeah I'll probably go with the upcoming redmagic 7 pro. being able to change the launcher is the game changer for me.
only thing I've noticed you have to slide slightly higher to open recents using the gestures otherwise it will act like the home button
I literally got rid of my Redmagic 5G because of this and right after I sold it, they released another update and tons of people were reporting using Nova hidden in settings. I'm glad it's still hidden on the newer OS.
Question though, do you think that even after it's set to the default, and going back from apps and such will restore the default launcher. If you uninstall the default launcher using ADB. Think that would stop it from restoring back or just break the entire OS?
Cause if it can't restore back, cause it doesn't exist anymore.. It "should" default to the only other launcher on the phone. Unless Nubia specifically designed the OS to have their launcher embedded as the safe mode default, rather than the system selected default.
