Huawei’s official website has updated the process for canceling the HarmonyOS NEXT system pollen/public beta upgrade. It now supports deleting the system installation package and stopping the update push. Details are as follows:

Delete the new system installation package

• Go to Settings > Apps and Services > App Management > Software Update > Storage , tap ” Delete Data ” and ” Clear Cache “

Cancel new system push

• If users do not want to receive HarmonyOS NEXT version push, they need to go to My Huawei App to cancel the registration

• How to use: Go to ” My Huawei App > Home > Upgrade and Try > (Multi-device Try) Upgrade and Try “, select the device that has registered for the event, click the ” Cancel Registration ” button at the bottom right of the page, a pop-up window will pop up to confirm the cancellation, click ” Canceling “, and the registration status will be displayed as ” Canceling “

• The cancellation of registration is expected to take effect within 3 working days . After it takes effect, the registration status on my Huawei App registration page will be displayed as ” Cancelled “, and you will no longer receive HarmonyOS NEXT version push.

According to previous reports, the original Hongmeng Night and Huawei’s all-scenario new product launch conference has been officially announced to be held at 19:00 on October 22 , and it is expected that more information about the pure-blooded Hongmeng system will be announced at that time. In addition, the HarmonyOS NEXT.0.0.72 version has been pushed, adding new features such as a one-click lock screen service card and a control center brightness/volume bar.

Huawei has recently filed a new patent indicating that their future smartwatches might include auto-gesture control features. This innovative enhancement will simplify gesture management, making it more intuitive and user-friendly for consumers.

According to the details, Huawei applied for the new patent on March 23, 2022, and it was published on May 30, 2024. The patent application is titled “Method for Controlling Wearable Device” and has been published by the U.S. Patent Office.

Input reveals that the new auto-gesture control technology for future Huawei smartwatches appears somewhat similar to the Apple Watch Series 9 Double Tap functionality.

The information suggests that the new auto-gesture control technology for future Huawei smartwatches resembles the Double Tap functionality found in the Apple Watch Series 9.

This feature automatically detects the motion between the index finger and thumb to perform specific tasks. Examples of such “Double Tap” actions include answering a phone call, scrolling through settings on the watch, and replying to texts.

Unlike Apple’s Double Tap feature, Huawei’s auto-gesture control technology for wearables will detect accidental touches on the screen. In other words, this feature will address and correct issues related to the device’s touchscreen operations.

For example, if you’re having trouble using the watch’s touchscreen in the rain, the device will automatically switch to gesture controls.

In short, the technology will detect unusual touch events on the screen and automatically activate gesture controls to ensure smooth interaction between the device and users.

How does the auto-gesture control technology work?

1. Advanced Touch Recognition Algorithms:

• The watch’s touchscreen would have built-in algorithms that can differentiate between normal touch interactions and unusual patterns.
• For example, rain might cause multiple, scattered touch points on the screen, while a finger swipe would typically leave a smooth, linear trail.
• Upon detecting unusual touch patterns, the algorithm would trigger a switch to auto-gesture control mode.

2. Multi-Sensor Fusion:

• The watch could combine touch data with input from other sensors like the accelerometer and gyroscope.
• Rain hitting the watch might cause slight vibrations that the accelerometer could detect.
• Additionally, the gyroscope might not register the typical wrist movement associated with deliberate touch interaction.
• By combining touch data with these other sensors, the watch could build a more comprehensive picture of user interaction and trigger auto-gesture control when necessary.

3. Machine Learning:

• Huawei might employ machine learning algorithms on the watch itself or on a connected smartphone.
• The algorithm would be trained on a vast amount of data to differentiate between normal touch interactions and various types of interference like rain, sweat, or accidental touches.
• Over time, the machine learning model would continuously learn and improve its accuracy in recognizing unusual touch patterns.

Gesture Recognition for Control:

Once the watch detects the need for auto-gesture control, it would need to recognize the user’s gestures:

• Pre-programmed gestures: Users could set up specific hand movements beforehand, like clenching a fist for skipping a song or rotating the wrist for volume control.
• Context-aware gestures: The watch could analyze the situation and suggest context-appropriate gestures. For instance, during a workout, raising your arm with a clenched fist could be interpreted as “pause music.”

While the specifics remain to be seen, auto-gesture control has the potential to significantly improve smartwatch usability in various situations.

Overall, the concept of auto-gesture control for Huawei smartwatches holds promise. It could enhance user experience by adapting to different scenarios. However, we’ll need to wait for official announcements to get a clearer picture of its implementation details and compatibility with various operating systems and hardware.

Huawei plans to develop a new version of its Celia assistant, featuring upgrades like 5.5G and AI capabilities. The company announced this at the 2024 Mobile Communications High-Quality Development Forum on June 7.

At the event, Huawei’s Senior Vice President, Cao Jibin, discussed how teamwork can usher in the era of 5G-A technology in the region.

Cao also announced that Huawei plans to develop a new Celia super assistant with 5.5G network technology and advanced AI features.

This new Celia assistant will be built on the Pangu AI large model. Since Huawei is set to launch the Pangu Model 5.0 at HDC 2024, this technology is expected to be integrated into the new assistant app.

Currently, the Celia voice assistant uses Large Language Model (LLM) AI and advanced algorithms. However, Huawei aims to make it even smarter and more efficient for users. Cao believes these enhancements will better meet users’ needs.

“Huawei is the first company to introduce AI into smartphones. In the next step, we will build Celia into a super assistant based on the Pangu model, integrating the capabilities of 5G + AI to provide users with better devices.” – says Cao Jibin.

Apart from the Celia assistant, Cao Jibin discussed the benefits of 5G-A technology, also known as 5.5G. This advanced network offers faster, more stable, and more functional mobile communication compared to previous versions.

Over the next 5-10 years, 5G-A will become more powerful and benefit individual users, families, offices, and other settings. It will also boost digital transformation and introduce various AI facilities for customers.

Cao mentioned that the demand for smart technologies will increase by 100 times, and AI computing will grow by 500 times. Despite slow progress in chip production, he is optimistic about future improvements.
