App that support auto-sleep/wake with a side window - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I bought a case that has windows on the side. It comes with an app but it crashes in Android 10. Without it, there is no auto-sleep/wake.
Does anyone know an app that can run on Android 10?
Thanks

Contact the developer for an update or downgrade your phone to Android 9. If the function depends on the app, you have no more options.

How to remove apps from desktop, but keep them...

Coming from my Nexus 6 (and Android Nougat), I can download apps to my Nexus 6 and:
1) Keep them in my apps icon / list
2) Keep them off of my Desktop, but still accessible on my phone through the app icon / list.
How do I do the same with the Xiaomi Mi Mix?
I am on the Chinese version of the September build, and to my surprise the Google Play Store was included in the build (I thought it was not incorporated in those builds).
After I installed by sim, and started by phone, I had forced all my google play store apps to transfer to my new Mi Mix. What I do not understand, is that all the app installed on the desktop (very cluttered).
Is there not a way to have them look and feel like all north american versions of the android smart phones ? ? ?
Where the apps download and install to the smart phone, but do not necessarily remain on the desktop home screens?
Cheers

MIUI is like iOS.
No app drawer and all installed apps on the screen. I have placed the MIUI apps I don't want into a folder and moved them onto a page I never access. You could also install Nova Launcher or something like it which lets you use a more conventional launcher.appearance.
Once rooted you can freeze apps or disable them.

Amen to that brother, that was my original choice (to create a single folder and throw all the apps in there). Question, does it organize them for you in an alphabetical order?
I was afraid of that. I thought the method used by most of the Android like operating systems from the days of lollipop - - - nougat, did a bang on job of app organizing. My last iOS was the original iPhone 2g, and later the iPhone 4.
Personally, Xiaomi missed the boat with that (MIUI / iOS)

Question regarding Android Auto

I have installed the Android Auto app on a Carjoying radio and despite the fact that in the Google playstore it says that my device is not compatible, it works without problems. I am using Android Auto as launcher (through some other app which lets you define any app as launcher). My problem however is that not all the apps that I like to use have been designed/adapted for Android Auto. Question: Is there a way where I can lauch non Android Auto apps from Android Auto or can I only use the build in apps?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Kurt
Android Auto only works with specific types of apps (and only those that have enabled the integration), namely messaging apps and music/audio apps.

Android Auto isn't designed to be a launcher or to work like that.
You're best best is to try AutoMate from the app store instead. It will give you the same look but works with lots of other apps.

Protected Apps in Android 7

Hello
I have a Huawei P9 Plus. With Android 6 there was a setting available under Battery Manager called Protected apps for allowing apps to keep running after the screen is turned off. I have now updated my phone to Android 7.0 and I cannot find this setting anymore.
Does somebody know where I can set the protected app setting in Android 7?

Screen2auto 3.6.3 Xiaomi Note 8 pro black screen

Hi there, i have installed the screen2auto through the AAAD app, i did the right settings (i think so) and gave the permissions on Xiaomi Note 8 Pro (no root) but when i run the screen2auto 3.6.3 via Android auto i cannot see anything. If for example choose the instagram app or gmail app i can see only a black screen. Is there something i can do to resolve that issue? Or a good tutorial to watch and setup the right settings step by step?
Best regards.

Hi.
I have non rooted Samsung note 9 and using s2a 3.6.2 /wireless Android Auto connection in my car. I have been using it for the last 5 months and it works very well and the s2a app has not dropped off my AA apps. I started by uninstalling AA and installing older version of AA 6.6.xxx . Playstore forced update to newer version of AA. Under settings menu tap the 'Version' 10 times to enter developer settings. Under these setting select(tick) 'download from unknown sources', 'developer mode' and 'wireless projection'.
I know there is a newer version of S2A but I am using 3.6.2 version and will not upgrade because 3.6.3 may not work on my phone. Download S2A 3.6.2 and AA Ease page 94 of this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...rroring-only-for-root-devices.4062787/page-94.
Install S2A with AA Ease and this should install in Android Auto and S2A should show in app list or as one of apps under AA Version.
This has worked for me and not had to reinstall it on a non rooted samsung note 9. I can watch youtube, bbc iplayer but only get sound on netflix because of DRM protection. Also try AAAD because I paid for pro version and Carstream and Fermata Auto work on my phone/car head unit.

Android Auto updated to 7.8.622514-release --> "Google" app now available on Android Auto

Hello,
Today I was unfortunately forced to update Android Auto to 7.8.622514-release. My Android Auto was running really stable with 7.5 (and I had really bad experience with 7.1 and 7.3 --> therefore I'm absolutely no fan of this forced updates).
I checked the functionality with a second phone with the app "Headunit Reloaded".
I noticed that I have a now the "Google" app available in Android Auto.
But it seems to me that the app has no function at all. I just have the message "no new messages during your drive".
Moreover it also does not appear in the launcher settings on my phone. Therefore I can't even deactivate the Google app.
Does anyone else have this? Does anyone know what kind of function the app should have?
I really do not think that I need this app. I prefer to have a clean Android Auto. Is there any other way to deactivate this app from Android Auto?
Thanks a lot.
Update: I also noticed that the Google Assistant shortcuts vanished and can't get brought back...Where are my Google Assistant shortcuts now?
Update 2: now after using Android Auto today for some drives in my car, everything is normal again. The Google app was gone after the 2nd drive and I could add my Assistant shortcuts again after the 3rd drive. I'm really curious why this happened...
I just hate these forced updates.
