Huawei nova 5 Tips and Tricks
If you like your Apps neatly sorted into folders, then there is a simple way to accomplish this.
First find the first App you would like in a folder. Then choose a second App. Press and hold on the second App and drag it over the top of the first App. They will both combine into a folder.
You can repeat this process to add more.
Once you have done this grouping, you can give specific name to that folder. For that just open the folder (containing different apps), and tap on Unnamed Folder tab and add your desired name.
Android has a feature allowing you to update Applications automatically. This is turned off by default, but you can turn it on.
Open the Play Store App and press the Menu icon in the top left of the App. Then select Settings and in Notification section you can turn Auto-update apps on.
From here you can chose to do this over WiFi only or using your Data connection.?
When entering text into Apps such as your Messaging App, Facebook App and so on, you can tap on the words to start selecting text. Normally, you would then drag the left and right sliders to select the word, or words you want to highlight.
If you double tap on a word however, it will quickly select that word. Very handy for quickly copying and one words, name or place.
This tip is relatively obvious, but some users overlook it.
Once you go into your Home/Apps screen you should see a row of dots. This indicates which of the 5 Home/App screens you are on. Rather than flick between each screen, you can simply press one of the dots and you will jump to that homescreen.
Or alternatively, slide your finger across the dots to move between screens.
To silence the phone when ringing there are two methods:
Either press the Volume Down (or Up) button or if the phone is on a surface facing up, simply flip it over so it is facing down.
If you don’t want to have to unlock your screen every time you take your device out of standby then go to Settings – Security & location.
Then select Screen lock type and select None.
To find out information about Signal Strength, Network Information, Remaining Battery Time and Battery Usage (by Application), drag down your notifications screen and select Settings.
Then under System, select About device and choose Status.?
The fast and easy way to change the wallpaper on the Huawei Nova 5 is to tap and hold on a blank space on your home screen and then tap “Wallpapers.”
From there, you can choose any image from your gallery or from a preset selection of live wallpapers from your device.
You may also go directly to your Huawei Nova 5 Gallery then open an image of your choice. Once you open the image, select “More” to look for the “Set as Wallpaper” option.
You can also change your wallpaper from the Settings menu on your phone. Just follow these steps:
- Swipe up or unlock your home screen to display all apps.
- Look for the Settings icon, tap and then look for “Display.” For some phones, you might want to look for “Home Screen” or “Wallpaper” right away.
- Next, tap “Wallpaper” and select which folder or file you want to use.
- Find your desired image and tap “Set Wallpaper.”
You can always use your own image as a wallpaper. However, most phones also have a preset selection of wallpapers (or live images) that can be used anytime too.
You may also choose different images each for your wallpaper and lock screen. However, you may also use just one image for both.
If you find yourself woken up by notifications, text messages or incoming calls, then there are some handy features called Blocking Mode.
1. Pull down the drop down menu and choose Shortcut – Do Not Disturb
2. An alternate way is go to Settings – Device – Sounds – Do not disturb.
From here you can set a From and To time in which to block these notifications.
You can also allow notifications through from certain contacts that you don’t mind bothering you.
With the recent versions of Android you can now take photos while recording video by simply pressing the screen.
This will save that particular frame to the gallery while continuing to record video.
