When moving the redmi Note 9 the screen turns on by itself. I have disabled the "lift to activate" option, but the screen keeps turning on when moving.
Someone can help me please?

Mine does this also when "Raise to wake" is on ( settings > lockscreen > raise to wake), but after switching this off I can wave the phone about all I like and the screen remains off
Have you tried restarting in safe mode? Just wondering if you might have an app which is keeping your phone from sleeping

I disabled raise to wake, but screen is turning on yet when moving (only when moving)

Try toggling raise to wake of on on then off, then reboot the phone - sounds like something is stopping the setting taking effect
Clearly not normal behaviour
Nuclear option would be to reset to factory settings, but I'd be slow enough to do that
Why not just put pocket mode on and leave it at that?

I tried it, but nothing. Screen continue turning on whe moving the phone. I put pocket mode (even cover frontal cámara) and same result.
I have thinking about factory reset, but one user tried a factory reset ( another xiaomi forum ) , without results.

Not sure if it's relevant but I'm on the QJOEUXM build - so the EU ROM - 4gb, 128gb redmi note 9
You too?
If so it seems very odd that we're having such different experiences

i have the same problem! thought im going crazy
i try update the system and will update afterwards

Mine has the same problem on global firmware but not on china firm

After a bit of searching i found the solution for this using adb.
All you have to do is run these 2 commands
adb shell
settings put secure wake_gesture_enabled 0

I'm stupid and I don't know how to do this and have the same issue, could someone walk me trough with how to get into ADB and use the commands

I have the same problem, I upgraded to MIUI12 and it didn't solve ... the solution would be only with adb ...

Thanks! That did the trick!!
And after a proper cleanup my GF's brand new Note 9 is really a good buy!
Removal/disabling pre-installed 'crapware' is always a good start, regardless of brand!

Solved!
I created my xda accout just to say thanks, this worked perfectly.

Pls help me how to perfom this trick..i have the same issue

1- Activate developers options on your phone.
For this you have to open Settings>About phone and tap on MIUI Version for about 7-10 time.
Now you go back to settings>adittional settings > Developer Options. Make sure you have USB Debugging and
USB Debugging(Security settings) are activated. For this last one i think you have to be logged in your MI account.
2- Install ADB(Android Debug Bridge) on your computer.
If you are on Windows, install ADB Universal drivers first.
Then download the ADB files.
3- Excecute commands.
Open a Command prompt (or shell) on the directory where you have the adb files.
Connect your phone with a USB cable. Change the USB mode to “file transfer".
In the Command Prompt window, enter the following command to launch the ADB daemon: adb devices.
You should get a prompt on your phone to allow (or deny) USB Debugging. Allow it and re enter on command prompt the "adb devices" command.
Now you should see your phone serial number. And you just have to enter the mentioned commands.
adb shell
settings put secure wake_gesture_enabled 0
exit (to exit adb shell)
And that`s all. Your phone screen should stay locked when you move it at this point.
Hope this helps you.

Changing the DPI/"display size" on the stock global rom without root

tldr; the stock global MIUI rom lacks a display size setting, but an awesome free option by zacharee1 lets you set it anyway, even without root, and with no need to reboot or anything:
https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.zacharee1.dpichanger
----
I love the Max 2 -- way more than I thought I would! I bought it as a replacement for my old, sadly dead Nexus 7 tablet, but if it had LTE bands for US T-Mobile, this might have been my next phone. But for all that, MIUI made some "customization" decisions to android that I just don't understand... like two finger drag for expanding a notification... and removing the "Display Size" setting.
On other Android N roms, you can easily adjust the zoom/DPI/display size, making things smaller or larger. The stock global MIUI version on the Max 2, however, is missing the setting (and the "Smallest width" setting in developer options.) I thought I was out of luck after trying an option from the play store that failed, but found an app in XDA Labs from zacharee1 that worked!
It did require enabling adb, and developer options; in addition steps, I had to go to developer options and enable "USB debugging (security settings)" with a sim card inserted. Normally I used the Max 2 without one, but if you don't have a sim card inserted it will tell you to insert one, then fail.
Anyway, if anyone else would like to fit a bit more content on the screen, I'm really happy with this app so far! Some of Xiaomi's own apps don't quite scale well, which is probably why they disabled it, but they just have extra padding around the content. They still work just fine.
Awesome!
Sorry, noob here. When I run the command it tells me "error : no devices/emulators found"
I have turned on both USB debugging options in developer options and am using Minimal ADB and Fastboot. No Root.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Worked well!
Just chiming in and letting you guys know that the app package is zacharee1 (one), not zachareel (L). Gave me some problems for a bit!

Oh, sorry. I've never used minimal adb before -- have you tried running the adb command as an administrator? (You might have to run "adb kill-server" first, it will used an existing adb server with fewer privileges if it exists.)

I'll try the administrator thing, thanks. I have no idea what
what ADB kill server is but will Google when I get home.
I tried it without root. I using adb in administrator mode, but it gives me an error:

Operation not allowed: java.lang.SecurityException: grantRuntimePermission: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.GRANT_RUNTIME_PERMISSIONS.
Any suggestions?

Actually, yep! In developer options, there is a "USB debugging" toggle, then three lines down a "USB Debugging (Security settings)" toggle, that's the error you get when you have the first one toggled but not the second. You need both turned on.
(I'm speaking from personal experience, I made that same mistake at first; it's a bit confusing that the names are almost the same!)
thanks @ldrn, I'll give it a shot.
Works like Charm. I have set the DPI to 410 Thanks!

i use "adb shell wm density 420"

Yes it is safe tested in MIUI Global 8.5 | Stable
make sure USB debugging (Security settings) is enabled in developer options

How to disable HiSearch??

I have signed out of huawei ID as I dont want to use any of their services. I think all is fine except for this function called HiSearch - where you scroll down from home screen in an empty space, it will bring down a HiSearch. Something like what you see on iOS. Now it kept asking me to sign in which I obviously dont want to.
Any way to disable this?
Find my thread how to debloat. You can remove almost every Huawei service including login in settings.
Please backup first. Sometimes you can cause a bootloop if you remove to much
Remove 'HiSearch'
===========================
Mate 20 Pro tips and tricks
===========================
Are you accidentally swiping the annoying 'HiSearch' feature on your new Huawei Mate 20 Pro?
Well, now you can safely remove it and it's not that hard if you pay attention to the instructions below.
(It probably works on other 'Mate 20' versions but I've only tested it on the 'Pro' version.)
First, we need to play with your phone.
---------------------------------------
On your phone, open 'Settings'. Scroll down to 'System'. Tap on 'About Phone'.
Scroll down to 'Build number' and tap on it about 5-7 times to enable developer options.
Next, go to 'Settings' > 'Developer Options' > 'USB Debugging', and enable it.
Finally, in 'Developer Options' scroll down to 'Select USB configuration' and choose 'Media Transfer Protocol (MTP)'.
On your computer...
-------------------
1) Download the ADB zip file to your Windows desktop computer or laptop.
Direct link to the ADB zip file is here:
https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
Unzip the contents of the zip file to your desktop.
There will be a new folder called 'platform-tools'.
2) Connect your phone to the computer through a USB port and (if prompted) enable USB Debugging on your phone.
(There may be a pop up on your phone asking you to do this.)
Open the 'platform-tools' folder that you just unzipped and open a 'command prompt' from inside that folder.
Put your mouse somewhere in the folder, hold 'shift' and right click your mouse. Select 'Open command window here'.
3) Type "adb devices" then enter.
This just proves that you are connected to your phone.
The long ID number of your phone will show up if you are.
4) Type "adb Shell" then enter.
5) Type "pm list packages" then enter.
This will show you a long list of packages installed on your phone.
6) Type "pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.search" then enter.
7) Did you see the word "Success"?
8) You did it. Aren't you clever! No more accidental 'HiSearch' swipes on your phone.

[GUIDE] S9 G9600 PayJoy Rent-A-Center MDM Knox Enterprise Disable Bypass

I picked up a G9600 and it has a knox enterprise certificate that configures the phone upon initial setup. It is not locked out yet and I can still return it but I’m also trying to figure this weird setup out and possibly clean it up. Rent-A-Center is renting phones that can be remote controlled by them, they supposedly buy them directly from Samsung like this. It’s very interesting!
To remove all of the knox and mdm stuff you have to do this:
Open Samsung Calculator and type in (+30012012732+, this will pop up drp mode, then type in the *#0808#, select DM+Modem+ADB, and hit reboot. You should now have ADB! (you have to do this same method after every reboot)
Once you enable ADB, then you can run these commands to disable knox enrollment center:
"adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.sec.knox.kccagent"
"adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.planetcellinc.ressvc"
"adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.absolute.android.agent"
"adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.sec.enterprise.knox.cloudmdm.smdms"
From here you can also now grant SystemUItuner adb permissions to disable animations and modify your status bar/quick settings. FYI, none of this will survive a reset.
Now all I have left to do is figure out how to enable developer options so that I can OEM unlock. I successfully got CROM app to unlock it, I just have no way to access the toggle. After 7 days the prenormal KG Status did go away.
EDIT: I no longer have the phone so I cannot continue digging into this. It worked on all version of Oreo, I never got to try it on Pie.

Maybe is not the full set of instructions, then you post the rest and now its a full solution (i think). I dont want credits or whatever, i just want to point you must link the info for reference. Videos, Posts and other stuff. If you post the link to the Youtube Video, can be useful.
The work of recopilation its yours, but the info is for all.

Maybe is not the full set of instructions, then you post the rest and now its a full solution (i think). I dont want credits or whatever, i just want to point you must link the info for reference. Videos, Posts and other stuff. If you post the link to the Youtube Video, can be useful.
The work of recopilation its yours, but the info is for all.
This is a community dude.

Your comment is the only one that I found after using THIS, obtaining ADB, and disabling knox. Yours wasn't complete so I posted a working solution, for the community dude.
If I do this on my Note 9 will I be able to flash a new firmware without being blocked by frp/mdm?

Like the OP said, this method cant survive a Reset.
Hello, need a little help with a note 9 from RAC. I was able to get into phone by bypassing set up but I'm limited with what I can use do to samsungs knox modified by RAC. I tried the calculator method from this post by I't didnt work because of the limitations I suppose. Is there any way that you can grant root access to an app like file explorer from a PC to remove frp setting so that I can Odin flash an unmodified RAC firmware.

Yes I kind of got that but I figured it would be the same process and all on how disable samsungs modified by RAC Knox and as it seems to work for me on a temporary disable as listed etc. I know of some apps that need root access can be granted through a PC my question was in how to do that to try and change it through fike explorer. Has it been attempted?

I picked up a G9600 and it has a knox enterprise certificate that configures the phone upon initial setup. It is not locked out yet and I can still return it but I’m also trying to figure this weird setup out and possibly clean it up. Rent-A-Center is renting phones that can be remote controlled by them, they supposedly buy them directly from Samsung like this. It’s very interesting!
To remove all of the knox and mdm stuff you have to do this:
Open Samsung Calculator and type in (+30012012732+, this will pop up drp mode, then type in the *#0808#, select DM+Modem+ADB, and hit reboot. You should now have ADB! (you have to do this same method after every reboot)
Once you enable ADB, then you can run these commands to disable knox enrollment center:
"adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.sec.knox.kccagent"
"adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.planetcellinc.ressvc"
"adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.absolute.android.agent"
"adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.sec.enterprise.knox.cloudmdm.smdms"
From here you can also now grant SystemUItuner adb permissions to disable animations and modify your status bar/quick settings. FYI, none of this will survive a reset.
Now all I have left to do is figure out how to enable developer options so that I can OEM unlock.

I have a S9+ sm-G9650U variant from R.A.C. ... you can still get to developer options via the apps that shortcut to there in the play store but it's hidden from normal settings area anyway even when enabled also attempting to flash results in "cannot flash MDM mode" message and phone auto reset to the out of box remote set up. also it seems oem unlock is permanent locked (supposedly) via MDM somehow...as I asked this at rent a center and was told at the end of the lease/rental agreement MDM is removed and oem unlock will be enabled so idk if it can be done without MDM issuing it... also attached is the app i use to access developer options.

There should be no difference between the S9 and Note 9, I only had access to the S9 for testing. I doubt the Android Pie update still allows this, I got rid of the phone before that came out but I was on latest Oreo update with it still working.
Yes

EDIT: I no longer have the phone so I cannot continue digging into this. It worked on all version of Oreo, I never got to try it on Pie.

Yeah, XDA mods are bad. The full solution seems to be the better solution in the long run anyway. I hope anyone who actually needs to use this goes the full solution route.
I tried something simulre back several months ago when I first picked up an unlocked S9 from Amazon from a 3rd party seller, was never able to get it bypassed, and even If I did didnt trust it. I ended up calling the number which was a local store number, they looked up the imei and it was reported stolen. So back to the seller it went.
If you trip knox on purpose it goes away perm. First to get rid of the problem of not being able to wipe it you have to get combo firmware use Odin to flash it in but be sure to check nand erase all on options tab and boom it's now able to be wiped. For a lot of units you're done just flash full firmware. However on some devices you have to extract the boot.img.lz4 from the ap file from full firmware file (not combo) then use 7zip to extract boot.img from boot.img.lz4 now copy the boot.img to a device that has magisk manager running on it. Tap install magisk select boot.img it creates a patched boot.img in your downloads folder. Copy back to PC use 7zip to put boot.img into a tar. Put device in download mode flash new tar it in you will see an error about knox. Put back in download mode confirm knox is tripped (samsung pay and other knox stuff won't work) flash full firmware. The notice about reenrollment will pop up but once u connect to wifi itll just go through normal setup because it's no longer "fit" for knox enrollment. Boom. Any questions let me know.

After you do the above, you'll be able to uninstall "com.absolute.android.agent", "com.sec.knox.kccagent", and "com.planetcellinc.ressvc" from within Settings > Apps.
Then you can go into Settings > Developer Settings > OEM Unlock
***I don't think this step matters, but I did it anyway just to be sure***
Go back to adb use the "adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 <package name>" command on everything that has the word "knox" and "enterprise" in the package name.
Then power off the device.
Hold Bixby + Volume Down while you connect phone to the computer.
This will bring you to download mode. You'll see 3 options:
Volume Up for Download mode
Volume Up for 7 seconds for Bootloader Unlock
Volume Down and Power for Cancel/Restart Phone
Choose the Bootloader Unlock option
Your phone will factory reset, but I guess since it unlocks the bootloader, it factory resets the phone to stock samsung firmware and not the rent a center controlled firmware..
You'll go through the initial setup but it will skip the rent a center knox configure step and go right into the phone as normal.
When it loads, go back to Developer Settings, double check to see that OEM Unlock is on AND grayed out, rather than OEM Unlock being off and grayed out.
This will remove all Rent A Center phone control, but I'd assume they could still blacklist your IMEI number.
Hey everybody.
I've been testing this but I can't select DM+Modem+ADB because I don't have that option.
I have RMNET+DM+MODEM+ADPL
I installed some adb drivers with that option but I get no response from adb devices and can't continue with commands.
Any tip is appreciated.

Delete OTA software update

I have a Note 9 with Verizon that has Oreo 8.1.0 on it. I have been trying to avoid downloading the Pie update. I had developer options on and auto updates were turned off, yet the update still got downloaded. How can I delete the downloaded software and stop these the installation reminders? It says I can delay the update only 8 more times before it automatically installs it My phone is not rooted and I don't know the first thing about rooting a phone. Any help would be appreciated!
I dont think you can permanently stop it without running some adb command. Too my knowledge there is no root currently available for the Snapdragon version of the Note 9.
Other users on here might know the adb command to run though but I'm not knowledgable on it.

Thank you for replying. I hope someone knows something.
Try using package disabler pro to disable the update services. Might work.

What you can do is hard reset your phone! Make sure you back up everything first that way the update will get wiped off your phone! Also when you re set it up, do not connect to network! Make sure NO Wi-FI NO Sim! Once your at home screen! Disable all auto updates from settings and dev options then install Adhell 3 disable all update packages and you will be fine!
quote "Adhell 3 can easily block any package plus it has the added benefit of system wide ad-blocking. Use this guide to setup: https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...tance-t3873831 (its post 3 or 4 I think that has the instructions). Enjoy!" Not mine--> He posted this another thread! @mtweisenbarger777
Yes that would work too^ I'm just blocking the services and seem to have done the job for me so far as I had that same concern as I just downgraded from pie and don't want to accidently update again
I stopped the updates by going to the Note 9 U1 XAA firmware. No Verizon branding. No VZW updates.

Package disabler apps must be purchased? But why not just disable with adb? (it's built in to your Note9 and free)
https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/176727/stop-galaxy-s7-upgrade-nag-screen/176739#176739
I just did this, so we'll see if this works over the next few days and doesn't break anything else:
adb shell
to find packages:
pm list packages | grep soagent
pm list packages | grep wssyncmldm
to disable:
pm disable-user --user 0 com.sec.android.soagent
pm disable-user --user 0 com.wssyncmldm
enable later:
pm enable-user --user 0 com.sec.android.soagent
pm enable-user --user 0 com.wssyncmldm

I cannot figure out how to get to the place where I can perform ADB commands.
Directions say to select PTP mode, but I do not have that as a choice in the status bar, when I connect my Note 9 on Oreo to Windows 10 laptop. I think that is why no commands work in the Powershell as administrator window, opened in the Platform Tools folder.
Do I start in Recovery or Download Mode?
I also read that ADB commands can be performed in ODIN, but I don't see where to type.
In Power Shell for Fastboot I receive the following error, when entering "adb devices"
adb : The term 'adb' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

1. Use cmd not powershell
2. Use. "Cd c:/your folders/folder-where-adb.exe-is" and replace the filepath with the filepath that leads to where your ADB.exe file is. Most likely in platform tools folder.
3. Go Into developer settings, enable USB debugging.
4. Plug phone into computer using file transfer mode, check your phone and allow your phone to "trust" your PC Always when the box comes up.
5. Now type ADB shell into the cmd prompt and you should get a $: instead of C: on the blinking line. Now you can execute PM Commands

ADB commands not working

Has anyone gotten the ADB commands to work? I'm trying to see if I can get by without root, so I want to enable the enhanced battery stats in GSam battery. It doesn't work for me. I'm using the latest platform tools, and I have the USB file transfer checked.
Does anyone have any suggestions that I can try?
Thanks.
Have you enabled "USB debugging" in developer options? Cause ADB definitely works here, and i haven't done anything special to get it working. Steps i'd personally take if it wouldn't work are:
Make sure USB debugging is enabled and USB is physically plugged in.
Make sure everything is ok with the ADB drivers, double-check the device manager.
Check if the device appears in "adb devices", make sure its authorized on the device.
Try actual adb shell and other relevant adb stuff.
BTW, if you seem to have troubles with ADB drivers, you can try wireless ADB instead. It is only available without root on Android 11 and does require the absolute latest SDK platform tools, but hey, i've tested it, it works, and it doesn't require any special USB drivers. Follow the "Connect to a device over Wi-Fi" steps from https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb to try that.

I had already done everything you suggested, but can't get the battery stats to work. I even tried it using wireless ADB, but had the same results. I get no indication that my command was accepted . I've never enabled permissions like this before, just used root, so I don't know if anything is even supposed to come up.

The first command supposed to grant a specific permission (BATTERY_STATS) to a specific app, i am unfamiliar with the second one (it turns a system setting named 'hidden_api_policy' on, but i have no idea what this setting is). I have no idea if those work as expected on Android 11, and Google loves changing stuff like that.
In any case, first, make sure you don't just run those commands from start->run or equivalent, but from a command line window, so if there are any errors you have a chance to read them. And finally, don't forget to force close and restart the app in question.

Did you get any text after you entered the commands that indicated you were successful? I've tried it multiple times without success. I may try to clear the data on the app and try again.

Yes, I do see my device, and I got a prompt on my phone the first time I connected.
I have managed to adjust my AOD brightness with ADB, so it must be something I'm doing wrong with the battery stats. I'm still waiting to see if the developer can give me any pointers. If I can't figure it out, I'll find another battery app.
I finally got it to work. The developer emailed me and told me that since I had the pro version, I needed to add pro after bbm.
Thanks for all the input!
I clearly remember you mentioning getting the package name wrong... the forum migration didn't exactly go smooth for xda, i guess :-/
Edit: WTF, now i see that last post, AFTER posting this one.
I'm having a similar problem.
Typing "adb reboot bootloader" using Windows Powershell, put my USB connected tablet into bootloader mode.
However when then typing "fastboot flash twrp.img" the command line returns "waiting for device" and appears to hang.
I definitely have Debugging ON, and "twrp.img" is in the adb folder.
