Gboard refusing to work - Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite Questions & Answers

So I've been trying to install gboard on my brother's mediapad m5 lite through Play Store, but I can't get it working because it's grayed out in the settings app and can't be enabled as a keyboard. Any ideas?

Working Google Voice Search/ Google Now with NULL?

I have the Google search APK side-loaded onto my gear, but whenever I perform a search the app force closes out. Same thing happens when I use voice search. I attempted to install the Core Google services APK along with the Google Search APK, but MobileGo said the Core Services APK was already installed...
Has anyone been able to get Google Now/ Search working properly?
Thanks in advance!

Amen to that!
I use the Aroma Installer so much, it isn't even funny.
I have a Gear 2. Will this work on Tizen? If not, is there another option for Google searches on Tizen?

Google now Launcher : Quick search not working

hi Guys ,
I am having a weird problem
I have google now launcher and the Material V UI theme on my p9 .
Everything works well except the quick search on the App drawer. It cannot search any app.
For example I have the BBC app but as soon as i type B in the quick search box of the app drawer , it says no apps found and shows a link to send me to the play store
Has anyone had experience like this ? any pointers on how i could solve it ? I already tried uninstalling and re installing the Launcher and it didnt work

I had this problem too, fixed it by: Long Press home screen... Click the Google Now Launcher settings.... Click 'In Apps'.... Make sure 'Apps Names of Installed Apps' is checked. Mine was unchecked. As soon as I checked it, App searching worked again.

VIE-AL10, EMUI 5.0, NOVA Launcher

I am using the VIE-AL10 in the US and was able to remove mostly all Chinese default apps to make it like a Google phone. I have used Nova Launcher for a while and it worked perfect in EMUI 4.1.
Now randomly the "Hauwei Home" launcher will reset as the default. Anyone having this issue?

have you found a fix for this? recently rooted mine. debating on deleting the huawei launcher.
I have not. Was hoping for a Huawei update to come out and address it. Please let me know if deleting the launcher works. I didn't want to root mine but would do it in a second if it fixes this issue.

so before i looked for the huawei home app i made nova a device administrator. I forget where the setting is but its in there somewhere. i have rebooted several times and nova seems to be sticking vs the phone switching back to the huawei home.
search for device administrator you will find it. alternatively you could root and give nova root priveledges

Do you know if that is something that you need to root to be able to toggle?

Also I noticed that the Huawei home default turns on when you connect a Bluetooth device to it.

You don't need root for that. I have found a workaround. Deselect it as the current launcher then hit recents. Once you see nova hit the lock. Haven't had a problem since. Notifications still don't work right but with apex launcher they work fine.

So I've tried this on a mate 9 and p9 plus. Once done the huawei home does not come back. I'm going on about 15 hours. I think it's safe to say this forces the issue.

Still no fix for autodimm bug? (b150)

Dimming is still present while openning chrome and google email,did anyone found solution for this?
I also have this problem Im on latest firmware its so annoying b151
I can confirm that disabling the Power Genius app will stop this bug. I used to hate it and it was persistent on the Huawei launcher and Nova, but not in other launchers. I tried everything because I love Nova. Disabling that app with "Disable service" fix it :good:

It's the power genius apk. It's a system app. If you're rooted I think you can disable it. Not sure if you can without root.

It is, not sure if it's a system app though, if it is you'll need titanium or a root uninstaller.
If not then just uninstall.
You can't uninstall the SwiftKey without root. But you can deactivate in the setting.
