[HOW-TO] Enable MultiWindow on EMUI 4.1 / Android 6 (like EMUI 5) - Huawei Nova/Nova Plus Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello!
This morning i was just looking in build.prop when ive seen a line regarding multi-window.
On EMUI 5 / Android 7, we can enable MultiWindow by pressing for few seconds the multitasking/recents icon in the navigation bar.
This feature is available on EMUI 4.1 as well.
REQUIREMENTS:
- EMUI 4.1
- Unlocked bootloader
- Rooted phone
- a file manager with root support ( im using the good old version of ES File Explorer)

[HOW-TO] Huawei Nova:
1) Grant root access to the file manager.
2) Go to /system and open build.prop.
3) Search for ro.huawei.multiwindow and change it from false to true.
ro.huawei.multiwindow=false becomes ro.huawei.multiwindow=true.
4) Save and reboot. After reboot, you can use MultiWindow by pressing for few seconds the multitasking / recents icon from navigation bar.

[HOW-TO] Other Huawei phones:
If you have followed the instructions for Huawei Nova and it didnt work, then check if you have HwMwLauncher folder in /system/app or /system/priv-app.
If it is missing, then check this post. People reported that MultiWindow is working after they got HwMwLauncher.
CONFIRMED DEVICES:
- Huawei Honor 8
If your phone isnt on this list, then it doesnt mean that it doesnt work. Just try and report back. I think it should work on all Huawei phones which are running EMUI 4.1.

EDIT: I just seen that you can use MultiWindow by swiping up two fingers on navigation bar too.

When you are in Multiwindow with 2 apps open, press HOME button.
I have a big bug!
The Home is in half screen.

I have no issues. When I press home button it just disable MultiWindow.
Nova CAN-L11 running EMUI 4.1 CANC432B100.

Maybe this is my firmware problem... I don't know.
But only with home button.
With back button all is ok.

I enabled this on my mate 7 with emui 4 marshmallow quite a while ago. If I try to use it I just get a pop up message saying this application does not support dual windows. Haven't found a practical use for it yet.

It's same for me.
When you press the "+" on homescreen after you enable MultiWindow I think it shows only the apps which support it.
Personally, I'm not using MultiWindow. I just wanted to share the small trick I've found.

Strange - it doesn't seem to have any effect on my rooted Honor 8 (still on MM with EMUI 4.1).
I used BuildProp Editor to set ro.huawei.multiwindow=true and rebooted. Holding the "recents" button does nothing apart from a quick burst of haptic feedback after about half a second or so.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Exactly the same phone and software here but it shows the toasts messages and the MultiWindow interface but doesn't work. I think EMUI 4.1 is simply Nougat ready and that is the reason why it has the option to enable or disable MultiWindow but the system (MM) has not this function and that is why it doesn't work. So the result is only the GUI of MultiWindow being shown but is only EMUI trying to do something as layer that system in fact isn't capable.
I was wrong follow @#Henkate instructions here here

1) Do you have HwMwLauncher.apk in /system/app/HwMwLauncher or /system/priv-app/HwMwLauncher ? I don't think it matter if it is in app or priv-app, but it must exist. I have it in /system/app.
2) After you enable MultiWindow, do you see the process named HwDualWindowLauncher at Settings > Developer Options > Running services (check also cached processes there)?
3) In build.prop I have the following line: ro.config.hw_multiscreen=true. I think it might be related to MultiWindow as well, but I'm not sure. I didn't try yet to set it to false and see what happens.

Well, it works for me on Nova CAN-L11 running EMUI 4.1
MultiWindow has been introduced in Android 6. Why Huawei hid this option in EMUI 4.1 (Android 6) and introduced it as a new feature in EMUI 5 (Android 7)? That's what I'm asking too.

1). I don't have HwMwLauncher.apk in either location (or anywhere, in fact).
2). No, I don't see the HwDualWindowLauncher process running.
3). I tried that, but it doesn't appear to have any affect.
Thanks anyway.
I'm not too bothered whether this works or not, but if it can be enabled, I will just for the fun of it!

The missing HwMwLauncher could be the problem since it is related to MultiWindow.
I've uploaded HwMwLauncher folder from my Huawei Nova.
1) Download HwMwLauncher.zip from HERE and extract it.
2) Copy HwMwLauncher folder to system/app.
3) Set the correct permissions for folders and files (.apk and .odex). I've attached screenshots with the permissions as well. The permissions of oat and arm64 folders must be same as the one for HwMwLauncher folder. And the permission of .odex file must be same as .apk one.
4) Reboot. Now I'd say that it should work. Make sure that ro.huawei.multiwindow=true in build.prop, but also ro.config.hw_multiscreen=true (just in case, I still don't know the purpose of this line as I didn't try to set it to false yet).
@carmeloamg :
If you don't have HwMwLauncher neither, then follow the same steps I've wrote in this post and report if it works.

I didn't have it. Placed and fixed but it only allows to use three system apps as second window even having some other multi window ready apps. For instance I've got WhatsApp and Telegram I can use multi window each one separately with gallery, files and videos but not both together. Snapshot attached. Same for you @stooby ?
Thanks @#Henkate !

very easy and smart! working very well without problems ...thanks

Yes, same for me. When I had my Note 4, there was an Xposed module that enabled all apps for multi window use. Unfortunately, it's not working on these devices. I'll keep investigating.

HONOR 8: Installing this version of HwMwLauncher makes the multi window natively supported apps to be selectable and the multiwindow_whitelist_apps.xml file placed in /cust/hw/normal/xml make it usable from many other apps that before says not compatible. Only two issues, sometimes launcher (nova launcher) gets stuck on half of it size buy as it comes it goes. The other issue is that you can not use two apps that not appear in HwMwLauncher, just able to open one that is not and then launch another that is on it. See screenshots (example using chrome and instagram).

[Q] How to use "Restrict background data" WITHOUT notification ?

Hi,
I wish to permanently use the "Restrict background data" feature ( under settings->data usage ) on my JB rom, but the problem is that when I enable that feature, I always get a notification, asking me to "touch to remove" that feature...
I don't wish to do that, even by mistake! I want that notification GONE completely, but to retain the "restrict" feature...
I understand, it's possible to permanently disable notifications, by altering "Settings.apk" somehow - but I don't know what and where to change ( wish file inside that apk ).
I used "apktool" to unpack the apk, but again - which file should I change ? what value/line should I delete ?
My rom is VJ's AOKP v2.2, so "Settings.apk" file is from that rom's version.
Any help would be great :highfive::fingers-crossed:
EDIT:
Guess it has something to do with "DataUsageSummary.smali" (after unpacking the Settings apk -> smali\com\android\settings):
BUT WHAT SHOULD I CHANGE ?!
please reply

Seriously ? Not even the smallest hint you ppl can give me ?:crying::crying:
Can't you even redirect me to the most prevalent sub-forum, here at XDA, for that kind of question ?:silly:

Something called the search function; it's really useful.
You can't just expect others to answer your questions promptly. As for your questions, that's part of the android system and if you want to modify it, go ahead. It's not a notification because you can't swipe it away; it's an ongoing thing. SO if you want to go on with that kind of attitude, you can try it yourself.

I really do appreciate your reply man - even though I googled xda from top to button.
( there are thread about modifying various stuff inside settings.apk / SystemUI.apk - but NON are about that "restriction notification" i'm talking about. )
I've seen this thread in the unread threads of XDA app and although I don't use that feature, I got curious to try it out. So I've quickly put together an Xposed module that removes the notification.
You have to install Xposed framework. Get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Also, install my module from the attachment, enable it and do a soft reboot in Xposed.
It works for me on my Galaxy R with CM10.1 and I assume it will work for you too, as the module doesn't change the Settings, but com.android.server.net.NetworkPolicyManagerService class. If you have any problems, post a logcat and /data/xposed/debug.log
Update: For a while now it's already available in Xposed modules repository: http://repo.xposed.info/module/org.adam77root.removerestrictednotification.

WOW thnx... but just a few moments before you posted your message I to fulfill that wish of mine... I SOLVED IT !
Although I admit - I DO NOT KNOW if I disabled all of the "restrict background" feature, but I DO managed to enable the "restrict backgound data" checkbox ( then press OK at the popup ) WITHOUT getting any notification at all !
HOW TO DISABLE NOTIFICATION ALERT FOR "RESTRICT BACKGROUND DATA" ( under settings-> data usage-> options )​( I tried that fix on JB 4.2.2 ( to be specific: AOKP VJ Jelly Bean v2.2), BUT I guess it works on all JB 4.2.2 )​1. copy "services.jar" from "/system/framework/services.jar" to your computer.
MAKE A SAFE COPY OF THIS FILE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO YOU.
2. extract the jar file using Winrar or any compatible app.
3. using MultiTool decompile the "classes.dex" file as instructed by Multitool's thread.
4. open with any txt editor ( I used Notepad++ ) the file "NetworkPolicyManagerService.smali" under "decompiled\classout\com\android\server\net\" ( which is a sub-folder of Mulitool's folder that you've previously extracted )
5. A . search for:
Code:
invoke-interface/range {v0 .. v6}, Landroid/app/INotificationManager;->enqueueNotificationWithTag(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;ILandroid/app/Notification;[II)V
delete completely that line or add "# " in the start of that line ( which is what I did ) so that line looks like that:
Code:
# invoke-interface/range {v0 .. v6}, Landroid/app/INotificationManager;->enqueueNotificationWithTag(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;ILandroid/app/Notification;[II)V
B. search for:
Code:
invoke-virtual {v0, p1}, Ljava/util/HashSet;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z
add "# " in the start of that line ( which is what I did ) or delete completely that line
6. SAVE that smali file that you've just edited.
7. using Multitool, recompile the classes.dex file.
if everything went good, you'll have classes.dex file under MultiTool's sub-folder named "output"
8. using Winrar, open "services.jar", replace the current "classes.dex" with the recompiled one that you've made.
9. copy the remade "services.jar" to your device(using adb etc ):
Code:
adb push "services.jar" /system/framework/services.jar
10. chmod "services.jar" to "-rw-r--r--", meaning you need to:
Code:
adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/services.jar
11. restart your device, and It should rebuilt your dalvik cache.
ONLY if it didn't, I guess you should delete "/data/dalvik-cache/[email protected]@[email protected]" file, reboot again so your OS will create that dalvik-cache file.
I'll be happy to know if anyone can verify that indeed my fix just remove his/her notification, but retain the ability to disable background data. THANKS !
Sorry I doubted you. You are a genius!
Many thanks!!
Adam77Root, thank you so much for that module! I can confirm it working on my Galaxy Note 2. That notification was unbelievably annoying.
gps3dx, thank you too for this thread and your fix. While I didn't try it because I already have Xposed framework installed and I'd rather use the less invasive approach, I am still grateful for your seeing a problem, addressing it, and proactively doing something about it. My respects to you. I searched around quite a bit and came across many other forums on different sites where people had this same problem unanswered. I hope they find their way to this thread.
To the above poster who jumped down the OP's throat for bumping this topic 4 days after it went unanswered, obviously you didn't do any search on this topic yourself. I did. And until this thread, I found nothing really useful. And lo-and-behold, someone was kind enough to actually do something useful instead of pointlessly sitting there and criticizing. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Rudely telling someone to 'check their attitude and search' is not helpful- it's just rude and pointless. Just FYI.

mybe it is because you run JB 4.1.2 not 4.2.2 like I do, plus mybe you're running some custom framework ( it is not AOKP as I suspect from you sig )

this was working fine on my aokp jb mr1 Milestone 2, but stopped working when i installed the nigthly nightly (jb-mr1)2013-08-21 (wich fixes my camera issues and soe other stuff)
is there anything i can try myself to fix this or is it just incopatible with that nightly? (its still 4.2)
I'm using Lenovo phone, 4.2.1 Version. In "services.jar" I see only folder "META-INF" and file "MANIFEST.MF". I tried to rename the file to classes.dex then using MultiTool decompile but I receive: "Unexpected top-level exception:java.lang.RuntimeException:bad magic value...etc"
So what's wrong, where to find classes.dex? Someone?
new edit: Thanks a lot for all the replies, also Xposed framework+module didn't work.

I'm almost certain I don't have the original files anymore. Since it's pretty simple, you can either decompile the apk or check Android source of the class I mentioned in the post you quoted. Only one function is replaced with returning null.
Edit: Just checked, the function is enqueueRestrictedNotification.

rooting?
do i have to root my phone to do this? will the module work without rooting? i'm new to playing with codes on my phone but I have done a lot of work with linux before so i can understand the process, i've just never rooted my phone before. i'd really like to get rid of this notification and the "usb connectivity" app's notification: internal storage &SD card- internal storage &SD card connected to PC. I mean, do i really need a notification to tell me that my phone is connected to my PC?
that last request isn't as important, at least if i accidentally click on that i'm not turning on background data use!

Thanks for informing about this bug. But unfortunately now I cant look after this fix for month. Still I will try to fix it
need a help
Can any one port the s5 key board for s3 lte 4.4.4 modal.
When trying to install using ES File Explorer, it loads, there is permission window and it ends with "not installed". I wanted to try this hoping there will be app shortcut for "screen write" which I can initiate without having to use SPen. (How I planned to use : If it created application link, I can add that app in another app "Pie Control". Pie control has a floating app launcher and I can use it to trigger Screen Write, which will capture whatever screen I am in for quick doddle/trim).

I was also about to make a thread about it so that's right, same here. I changed in buildprop to userdebug and there was the option for multiscreen in developer options but thats all. It doesn't seem to work. I think there are some files missing from the firmware, i mean it's totally not supported.
Isn't there an explode mod to do this?
PS. i even tried with adding this line in buildprop:
persist.sys.debug.multi_window=true - no luck
also tried the splitwindow support all in buildprop...
Yup sir no work at all Lg doesnt give that option for k series I also tried that persist line but no work at all
After rebooting from edited build.prop the screen showing a txt in color red in the right down corner saying that userdebug xxxx like that. Yeah thats what I exactly think that the firmware is incomplete
Anything like floating windows? I found the com.lge.app.floating.res.apk in the system/priv-app folder and it is the original lg qslide function (lg's floating window stuff). I just could not make it work, maybe someone will be luckier then me... i guess some xml files (from the system/etc/permission folder) and jar files (form the system/framework folder) are missing.

Yup I already knew it but xposed is not working properly in LG K10 as it always stopped my apps and games or we could say crashing or force close. Dont know why either.

You should have xposed framework installed, but however it won't work because xposed doesn't work with k10
Xposed actually works quite well on my k8 however those mods for multiwindow are quite old so they don't really support marshmallow...
Actually I manage to install xposed using TWRP flashing 2 zip files and an intsalled apk. However I think most modules have bugs in K10. I try to install the xmultiwindow = not work and xhalo with floating notif= not work and can cause system UI error cant use it anymore in other words a softbricked device. Well that was my last attempt not to work with multiscreen anymore. A completely hopeless for that.

In galaxy store you can find a lot of fonts, but most of them have a cost, I have seen that you can use substratum to change fonts, but, I think you have to pay for something, I dont know the exact details, but look here in xda about substratum and hex installer

Yes, the link I posted works fine for non rooted devices, you just need to follow the instructions, is not very complicated, a little tricky but if you read properly, you'll make it. Tell us where you got stuck.
Thank you so much ? i did it well
I extracted the apks to the folder names "monofonts" on my internal memory, when inside the folder and installed, got a prompt that said font have been installed, then head over to the display serttings to install the new fonts and it tells me "this font is not supported. Contact the font provider. Uninstall this font?"
I have Tmobile Note 10 plus One UI 2.1.
Any suggestions?

Don't install from the folder, use the #mono_ apk that will recognise the folder and install the desired font. Yes you can uninstall the one you have then use the, let's call it, app font manager.
The app in the playstore called 'zFont' also has a bunch of monofonts you can install for oneUI on Android 10.
I made a tutorial regarding this. Hope it helps!
1. Make sure you are signed into your Samsung Account.
2. Install zFont 3 from the Play Store.
3. Go to Dashboard and open Monotype fonts.
4. Find CirceRounded font (2066th font).
5. Tap it twice to download and then install it.
6. Change the device's font to the new one.
7. At your phone's Settings, go to "Accounts and backup" and then to "Back up data" under Samsung Cloud.
8. Select only "Settings" and back it up.
9. Change the device's font to the default one.
10. Back to zFont 3, go to Local and tap on the "Aa" button.
11. Select the font you have downloaded that you like.
12. Tap on "APPLY" twice to uninstall CirceRounded and install your own font.
13. Do not change the font in your phone's Settings!
14. At your phone's Settings, go to "Accounts and backup" and then to "Restore data" under Samsung Cloud.
15. Select only "Settings" and restore it. Don't delete the backup.
16. Android will be tricked into thinking that it's applying again CirceRounded but it will actually apply your custom font!
17. You may repeat this process from step 9, for every other font, now.
NOTE: If your font isn't a ".ttf" file, you may convert it online or use zFont Tool to convert ".otf" to ".ttf"!

Disable high volume warning

Hi, I want to disable the High volume warning, I already have a solution, right now I use terminal shortcut pro and have created a shortcut to run the command
Code:
settings put global audio_safe_volume_state 0
it work great but doesn't survive a reboot so I have to run the shortcut after every reboot. I found an old thread on reddit that say adding the line
Code:
audio.safemedia.bypass=true
to build.prop can also disable the high volume warning, but the thread was so old, they were talking android 6.0
I plan to try to add this prop on boot using the magisk module MagiskHide Props Config, I know it work great because I already added a prop to reduce the media volume steps to 15 instead of 30, but i dont know if the prop
Code:
audio.safemedia.bypass=true
is still working on android 10
Another solution would be to have an app that run the terminal command
Code:
settings put global audio_safe_volume_state 0
automatically after boot, but I would prefer to add the prop line if anyone can confirm it still work on android 10
Thank you all !
Nice to know.... what's also wondering from time to time how to overcome the warning. let me know if you get it to a working solution.
Just for the last part: tasker would be the way to go.

Just a quick update for future search, the prop
Code:
audio.safemedia.bypass=true
seem to work, I have not seen the high volume warning for the whole week, so problem solved !
Hey one question, how were you able to edit the build.prop file? Whenever I try to do so with Root Explorer, it doesn't save my changes. OnePlus 8 Pro Android 10

Hello and thank you for finding a workaround for this stupid issue! Do you know if this is still working on android 11? After installing the module, how can I correctly set it? Thank you so much for your help
I tried setting it with termux but it's not working

I still use it with 11 on my OP7T but I am unsure if this prop remove the audio warning or if there is no warning at all on my device. Never tried 11 wihtout the prop so IDK.
Another way you can try is the system UI tuner app on the play store, there is a setting to disable the warning under the audio & sound category. Good luck !

Thank you for your reply! I kept trying to no avail. Can't make it work unfortunately. When you upgraded to android 11, did you make the procedure again from scratch? Can you please explain what you did on termux?
Is the system ui app an app that it's aways on background?
Thank you so much!

No the system UI tuner app just change some hidden android settings, it do not run in the background. The description of the app even state you can delete the app once you changed the desired setting. Read the whole description to understand how it work. Try it, I think this might be the best solution.

i can confirm that no app does change the setting of safe volume limit.
All tests on rooted device from LOS14-LOS19. Tried different apps like systemuituner, safevolumelimitdisabler, volumesteps+, jamesdsp etc.
Tried to patch the global variable "safe_media_volume" like described here on a rooted device but no luck.
Just ran
[adb shell] settings put global audio_safe_volume_state 0
via adb, when the message popped up, afterits i had to confirm the nag-screen, to raise the volume. it's so weird..
