Question Help: Split screen no longer available - Redmi Note 9T

Hello everyone,
I often use the split screen option on my redmi note 9t with latest miui version 13.0xx.
Since yesterday, without having made an update, I can no longer split my screen to use two applications. I was using the menu button to split, now I'm using a 3rd party app for that.
the split option has disappeared from the menu, see the screenshot. even searching in settings and developer option.
who can help me to find this options.
Thanks in advance

Screen off memo

Hi, every time I write a screen off memo it will not show on the AOD screen. Instead will go directly into a icon. If I tap twice the icon will appear for a brief time and then go back as icon.
The time it will stay on the screen will not be combined with the date/time.
Anyone has the same? Is it a problem of the settings or csc?

Yes, same here - direct to icon. I saw review videos where the screen off memo actually remains on the display along with the always-on screen. I tried every combination (i think) of always-on display and lockscreen notification settings, but never found a way to get it to stay.
On those same videos, by the way, the main settings screen looked very much like the one of the Note 5 and not at all like Grace UX, which is what i have. So i wonder if there are different software versions out there with some serious differences.
Maybe csc related ? mine is XSG.

If you go into the always on display settings and then about it should show you an update is available. After this is downloaded it is now working correctly.
Not sure why this did not ship on the phone or they make the update more obvious.

I didn't get an update prompt, but this helped me. I opened galaxy apps and looked for updates there. sure enough, there was, and installing it fixed it. All good now!

i didn't check that, but Galaxy App pushed an update of Always-on Display yesterday, and indeed now it works the way it should
Thanks. Update worked. I was wondering why it wasn't working.

Navigation buttons anyway to swap them around ? and make them appear or disappear ?

All my recent phones have been Oneplus phones (5 and a 5T) and there is always an option to change the order of the recent and back buttons, I tend to prefer them the opposite way round .....but usually not an issue to change, but I cannot find any button switching on the recent and back buttons.
Also is there a option to make the recent and back buttons just drop off the screen when surfing , on the 5T you can assign a gesture so just flick up from the bottom of the screen and the buttons appear, which is really useful when reading a website as it gives you more screen to view rather than losing a centimetre from the bottom of the screen.....but once again I cannot find such an option.....anyone know how or if this can be set ?
Other than those and the battery percentage not showing ( I just use an app instead and turn the battery icon off) I am enjoying the phone, but those two fairly minor things would be nice to work out...
Probably you need root to do this on stock Android (there is already a pre-patched Magisk boot.img for the A2L). Then an app or a (still non-existent) Magisk module will do the trick.

Not yet, but as I said above, if you search in the development section (very easy, there is only one thread at the moment) there is a user that posted a modified boot image that includes Magisk.
If you flash that image via fastboot and then install the Magisk manager apk, you'll be ok (there is a link to a guide in the same post with the boot image).
u can use xda navigation gusture..

HI , The only issue with the link is that it explains for rooted then has a link for non-rooted which takes you take a page of 24 pages full of different hacks that do not seem to explain how to do this for non-rooted phones.
Do you have a direct link to the non-rooted method please.
TYI
for the guys who don´t know if you press the settings button on the navigation bar bar about 10 sec ( keep doing until a new option appears on system menu) called interface tuning or similar that you can tweak the status bar
You can use "custom navigation bar", using adb instead of root.
this is not true. if it is true, show us.

I just tried, and it works. It unblocks a menu called "System UI Tuner".

maybe you mean notification shade
not navigation bar.
yes i can confirm that pressing the settings button on the notification shades for a few second make system UI tuner to appear on settings above developer settings. and it's only purpose is for hiding some statusbar icons.

Disappearing home icons/widgets, spotify music and contacts on Redmi Note 5 Pro 64gb

Since I bought Redmi note 5 pro I am having this issue.
I installed the Nova Prime Launcher and gave it auto start permissions & all other permissions etc. I also installed Spotify, work shift calendar paid app, baby feeding time, WhatsApp and many other app, The following morning i noticed missing home icons/widgets, offline music had gone and widgets all disappeared.
I've done some digging around. Initially I turned off the scheduled cleaner in the security app, thinking this was the culprit but the following morning the above items were gone again. I found a post somewhere saying to turn off the Mi backup, which i did. This morning I got and seen stuff had disappeared again.
I have tried couple of launchers having same issues.
Has anyone any ideas? Please see attached a pic of my calendar widget, which I setup yesterday and it's disappeared today. I got auto switch off & on feature on.
Many thanks

Which MIUI version are You running ? Do those widgets disappear even on stock Mi Launcher ?
Sent from my whyred using XDA Labs
To be honest I haven't tried stock miui coz I can't alphabetically organise icon,its shame no option to do that.
I am on miui 9.6.3.0(0EIMIFD)
Thanks for your reply.
After I turned my WHYRED information the first time I really wanted to have a LTE discovery widget to see, which LTE band I'm currently using. Unfortunetly I couldn't. The widget would load and stay, but after a few seconds all data from it would disappear leaving empty frame with a "no info available" or something like that. Out of nowhere after a few months it started working
Mebay try one more thing. In recent apps menu (at least in MIUI 9) when you swipe down of a particular app it gets pernamently (until You swipe down again) stuck in RAM mening it can't be killed. Try that
Sent from my whyred using XDA Labs
You mean this when there is a lock symbol on the icon as its in screenshot? Thanks
Your screenshot doesn"t load for for me (in XDA lamps and in browser) so i can"t tell :/
Edit. It loaded
Yes. This is what I was talking (wrighting actually ) about
Hi @MikiGry
I tried but today morning it was disappeared again, so that's not solution. It's very annoying
Does it happen to all widgets or some specific ones ?
Sent from my whyred using XDA Labs
On all widgets.
Are You using per-aplication power saving feature ?
Sent from my whyred using XDA Labs
No by default I had power saving option eblnabled, but I have given no power saving to these apps which I want widgets. Thanks
I'm out of ideas :/
Maybe go to developer options and disable MIUI optimizations ?
Sent from my whyred using XDA Labs
I'm experiencing the same problem with widgets disappearing after reboot on MIUI 10 (Android 8.1.0), device Xiaomi MI8 .
Turning off "MIUI Optimizations" in developer settings also did not fix the problem.
I had the same problem - the gmail widget is still ok - other widgets not
the problem is the backup.
the backup removes the widgets (and sometimes some icons)
go to: settings => system&device =>additional settingsbackup&reset => auto backups => turn them off
and don't make manual backups there.

How To Guide Launcher change

I have found a way around changing the launcher on REDMAGIC phones that I figured out, it is a bit of a process. This is what you have to do
Settings>Battery>Battery Usage>Tap on screen>Battery Optimisation>Tap on the three dots on the top right>Tap Default App Settings>Desktop (on the top)>select the launcher on the top.
And you're done, enjoy.
Notes: it is a bit buggy, sometimes when going to the desktop it would show the normal factory Nubia launcher, tapping the home button fixes it.
I have only tested this on the REDMAGIC 6 so I don't know if it would work on other phones. If there is a much more simpler way then please tell me
The Easier way is to go into applications and tap on the 3 dot menu and choose default apps. There you will see all of the default apps and you can change the launcher at the top. Im on the 6s Pro Cyborg
I was gonna say that but your reply sums it up.

How many hours of screen on time are you getting on your 6s pro and on which refresh rate? Do you observe any cons so far on this device? Does pubg work on 90 fps without any mods?
Thanks!
Thank you! Super helpful

Question Avoiding Whatsapp tablet mode.

Whatsapp has started to open in inner screen in two columns, as in a tablet.
On the outer screen it works as usual: 1 column.
I dont know if cause is whatsapp version upgrade, or one ui 5.1 , but I want the one column layout back to my inner screen.
I can't find a setting for that
I can't promise that this will solve it but: look in the Galaxy Store for Good Lock. Install it and also MultiStar. Multistar allows customization of displays for apps that cooperate. Let us know if that does what you want.
Thanks, but B4 asking for help, had been tinkering with Multistar to no avail.
Can't get back to traditional 1 column layout. Stuck on tablet 2 column mode as soon I open the fold to use the I ner screen
Open the phone in to tablet/unfolded mode, then go to Settings->Advanced features->Labs->App split view and disable for WhatsApp (on my phone, that is the only app lised in that menu)
I'm bumping this, because I noticed my WhatsApp had changed back to split screen. So I went to change it back and the option I described above is now missing. Very strange.
Anyone else having issue?
Yep, I have Whatsapp NOT listed in the app listing for said option.
I'm wondering if an update to WhatsApp has removed this functionality
That is my guess too

Hi. Have you tried looking in the settings of WhatsApp itself?
Not such a setting. Or its very well hidden
Yes, I've been through all the app settings and it's not there.
Either an update to OneUI or WhatsApp is needed I think.
Solved
Whatsapp has finally included a setting for one or two columns in latest release!
Thanks!
For those wondering, it is in the App settings -> Chats -> Side-by-side view
