I contacted getmobilephone via his website, and he has shared some information with me, regarding Mate 7 update.

It is expected to come in February, the Lollypop update.

Hope it will happen then, really want stable Lollypop.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] nkos719:
Really good news.thank you for sharing!
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
Looking forward to lollipop also.. I hope in next month
[Ascend Mate 7 General] desmoloch:
Sorry but why we need 5 different lollipop threads?! Why should getmobilephone know when huawei will release lollipop?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] hussam1988:
I don't believe that
[Ascend Mate 7 General] AhmadDawood:
Lollipop will be available to Mate 7 at March 2015 in the Chinese Market only

International Lollipop will be Available June 2015
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Extornia:
It might not be correct, but he is an distributor of Huawei Mate, and probably has connections with Huawei. I'd love it if he's right, if not well what can you do :/
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
Now it is february, still no leaks or anything regarding lollipop... ?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
There won't be any more updates for Mate7 or P7 I believe ...

Mate8 and P8 coming and there will be all new stuff incl. 5.0 android..
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
Why make this "lollipop" buttons when they do not aim to have the real lollipop ?

Mate 8 is just speculation no official confirmations... I want Lollipop now.. my device feel aged without it..

I also hope better performance also and battery life.. if Huwawei will be more popular I think updates are something that they can't ignore.. if there will be no lollipop in the next few months I will not buy a Huawei device again..I demand it..as simple as that..already when I bought it when it was news there was rumours about lollipop in Q1 2015..so I expect it very soon.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
You can make your phone lollipop visually only..

Or you need Google phone like nexus if u like fast updates...

Huawei will update to 5.0 BUUT don't expect if will look lolipoppy.. It will STILL look EMUI 3.0..

Imagine 3.0 OFFICIALLY released just NOW in January..

phones are not even 4.4.4 but 4.4.2.. :)

Sent from my iPhone 5 White-Purple
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
True. The phone already looks Lollipopy with the buttons and material design of emui 3.0 though they should upgrade so we get the full features of lollipop like screen pinning and others
[Ascend Mate 7 General] AhsanU:
I think the recent apps menu in lollipop is fairly important and amazing too.

Sent from my HUAWEI MT7-TL10
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
It's to slow to be useful I do not use rh multitasking button cause it's not snappy enough
[Ascend Mate 7 General] nkos719:
guys guys guys....the point of getting 4.4.4 or 5.0 is not to get the visual crap but to check how our phone is gonna behave on ART mode...
[Ascend Mate 7 General] 4mynikka:
So do we know we are actually getting the update to lollipop? Enjoying the phone as it is but I think an upgrade will be good.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
Jesus ..

I hope you carry all these phone at once every day !
[Ascend Mate 7 General] tuddu:
I don' t see all this necessity for Lollipop update, also because what e really use in our AM7 are the apks we install,..the menus and the other parts I don' t think we use so often.

Therefore Lollipop or Kitkat shouldn' t change the situation so much, as most of the users are writing.

What could be better, IMHO, should be: battery drain and radio signal stability/sensibility.

This is my opinion only.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] nkos719:
Ha!yeah i try to :p
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
Well if you don't see the need for lollipop update they don't update your device when it rolls out. I will update mine though.

It's not just about the apk installation as you call it. If it were, then why aren't you still using froyo or gingerbread? Why did you buy a phone running kitkat?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] paullu:
Did you do phone reset after updated?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] helmuth:
Didn't have to - it's part of the process when you downgrade to b137sp03 and happens automatically. So be aware that the contents of your internal storage is gone...
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Mulham82:
Dears,

Good Day,

I would like to inform you that I have this build MT7-TL10V100R001C00B128 so is it possible to upgrade my device to MT7-L09 lollipop 5.1?!

Thanks.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Supanova5k:
Hi Everyone,

Similar question to the post above.

I have MT7-TL10 running build number MT7-TL10v100R001C00B128 (Android 4.4.2 & EMUI 3.0) and would like to update to Android 5.1. Will the version posted in the beginning of this thread work on my device?

Thanks in advance!
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
No it won't. That's for the TL09 version

Check the other thread for the TL10 European version that will work on your device

But you either downgrade to B125 or edit your updater script
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Yuuki1942:
the update works great.the problem is cpu-z or any other program show that i have 1602MB instead of 2GB. and 2600 mhA.When i had 44.2 vs b137 it showed that i have 2GB and 4000mhA.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
I think what tudu thinks it is not necessary in desperate way.. For instance, like, jessus ,am not gonna sleep now bcos I don't have lollipop update.

WHen it comes it comes and ill update .. but if not then not .. am not bothered.. phone does what it should ..
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
Well I mailed Huawei mobile NG and they replied that ? is in the works. But since it's their Nigerian site I cant really trust them. I can only keep my fingers crossed
[Ascend Mate 7 General] AhsanU:
Lollipop isn't absolutely necessary, but after running CM12 on my G3 for a month or so - I'd love to have the recent apps and material design that comes with it. I suspect we won't see 5.0 on this phone for at least two months or so. This is just a guess and is not based on any hard facts.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] tixoo:
Lollipop

Hey,

I have contacted the UK Huawei office, and they confirmed that the phone will be getting lollipop, that its the works but they cannot confirm when will we be getting lollipop.

Anyways its at least good to know that we are getting lollipop, but i guess we will have to wait if not at least a month then few months.

CHeers

Hello there a way that the root of the following topics you whatever I had no answer to that! I tried everything even email

Model : Huawei Ascend Mate 7 TL-09
[Ascend Mate 7 General] paullu:
Better than nothing
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
It seem they have no more info then we already have ? Lollipop is already promised by the company..

but the longer they let us wait the more pissed of people will be... the phone should have lollipop now..since this device has had kitkat for 8 months now.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] tixoo:
you are actually not right! Who from the major manufacturer have lollipop ? almost none! even Motorola has not updated all its devices to lollipop yet, only LG has it officially as far as i know, maybe samsung not sure do. You cant expect or demand such a thing from them as obviously its slow process and totally new thing that they need to build their new skin on top, its not like a minor .1 update or .2

[Ascend Mate 7 General] AhmadDawood:
i contacted some Huawei distributors in Egypt since we update the international Android versions in all brands and we dont have a specific version like other countries like china

they answered that the lollipop international version wont be available until the second half of this year..since other brands that received the Lollipop have reported critical errors and many bugs

also they reported that Huawei is planning that the MATE 8 will be the 1st Phone introducing the Lollipop

this make some sense since at the beginning of the second half of this year we will see the Mate 8
[Ascend Mate 7 General] GadgetMe:
Damn. Sounds like a poor excuse from Huawei in my opinion. I have the LG G3 and i love the lollypop opdates.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
If we conclude beinfits and cons I m sure there is more benefits with lollipop.

In the summer it has been one year since lollipop was released in this time most likely a new version of Android is released, 6.0 they might as well just skip the lollipop all together?

This is a huge problem for Android right now.... Must be easier to do updates...

Lolipop will be avail. In april or may ..

New media pad x2 has it so expect it soon

And pls. Leave it now for god sake...
[Ascend Mate 7 General] GadgetMe:
Shhhh... :D
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
If anybody interested to check Lolipop on media pad x2 here ;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30AWvVBuieU

No difference .. icons in settings are coloured which |I WOULD welcome on my M7
[Ascend Mate 7 General] gn0s1s:
It's the under the hood updates we are waiting for. The use of ART will speed up the device, and app load times, and hopefully improve the multitasking switching, which is the only real lag i notice on it. I would also love to see if the X2 is pocketable haha, i'd almost consider it.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
Give us lollipop now!

Their new tablet have lollipop looks very similar to the mate 7 software and almost same hardware? Should be easy to port to the mate 7 device
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
No x2 is not pocket friendly.. that wud be awkward..or silly

It is tablet capable of phoning.. so for ppl who travels or using tablet a lot no need smartphone .. just phone and tablet in one carrying in suitcase ..

While it is in suitcase you might get nice elegant huawei smart watches and be notified..

I just got an update to C00B123 but my phone kinda rebooted into cwm recovery without installing it. Any workaround?

---------- Post added at 12:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:58 AM ----------

Seems I hAve to flash stock recovery to be able to install. Pls who knows how and where to get the stock recovery and also the locAtion where the update file is saved on the phone???
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
You need stock recovery.. read forum mostly Q&A and general sections..
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
Yea thanks. I already noticed that. I have flashed the update. It's cool. Huawei cloud, Hcare and Talk band was added along with Emui user experience program.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] gn0s1s:
I guess it depends if you thought the sony Z ultra was...

They are almost the same size.

[Ascend Mate 7 General] xlr8me:
The width of it is humongous not sure if any garment pocket can tolerate that width.

Does look sexc tho wouldn't mind adding it to the mate 7.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
I don't have those as I have EU version yours is china version and they ar supported only in china..

---------- Post added at 03:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------

Heh never heard bout z ultra :D sorry .. but design is horrible ..

And x2 could have thinner bezel frame round screen..
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Mister B:
Would assume then if bootloader unlocked you have flashed generic L09 ROMs which contain the Chinese apps.

Here in thailand the standard shipped L09 ROM is coded with TH & has some implementation in thai input & application suitable for this region but i could download other region/generic L09 ROMs & see same as you perhaps.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Mister B:
^^ If via OTA update then it probably how Huawei are handling updates in a generic update & not offering the same regional spec/packages you had from default.

If doing update via complete ROM package download from online server it could be fact you choosing the china or asian region ROMs.

I suspect it Huawei compacting updates to cover more regional devices rather than putting in the work to have varying regional updates that would match closer to original shipped regional package.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Tahiri.khalid:
Hi all

Does anyone received update to B129SP05 ?

I'm using MT7-L09

[Ascend Mate 7 General] drmodify:
Still no lollipop.. And its March
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
Where the hell is our lollipop?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] vonotny:
In purgatory, to repent its sins. I'd rather not have 5.0 to be honest, too many bugs. My hope is that Huawei will give us 5.1 right away, though I wouldn't bet on it. And I'd rather stick with 4.4 for another while and then get a proper new firmware.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] GadgetMe:
Well you can always wait or not update at all so i dont really se a problem with the the rest og us getting it getting it.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Mr.Nice.ba:
I think the easiest way to get lolipop is to port media pad x2 rom to mate 7. New tablet frow huawei have lollipop and almost the same hardware?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
AT last one rational post which is interesting .. but those naiive kids above moaning about 5.0..

I mentioned already in my thread .. but looks like nobody's bothered ... so carry on crying.. (those above)

[MENTION=2719604]Mr.Nice.ba[/MENTION]

But modding it and porting might be difficult ? we can mention this to devs ?

According to that the Lollipop update will come in juli
[Ascend Mate 7 General] danger2u:
Lollipop for Mate 7 gold will be available at July

untill July Google will roll out Android 6.0 :)))
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
:laugh::D

i said christmas :p

bcos that will be JUST 5.0 and it will be laggy and for 5.0.1 update there will be another 6 months sooo .. yeah I recon christmas..
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
Lollipop rollout starting in May

Mate 7 getting it first followed by others

See attachment for details
[Ascend Mate 7 General] MUG3NHC:
Old news and unfortunately the dates could be for China only...
[Ascend Mate 7 General] vonotny:
Considering that the P8 series has just been announced with EMUI 3.1 based on Lollipop 5.0.2, it's only a matter of time until the update will hit other Huawei devices.

Of course, as for whether root will be possible or can be retained, and whether the system will run as smoothly as the current KitKat build, we'll have to wait to find out ...
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
No it's not. Check the pic again. There are three mate 7 versions there. MT7 TL10 is international version so it's not China only.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
YES .. there is L10 china and EU version and L09 china and EU version .. I have L09 china version , where other guyz has europe version
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
Well there are there versions of L10

One is the Chinese

The 2nd is European

And the 3rd is international

You forgot the international version.

It's what am using and I can assure you it's quite different from the Chinese and European version.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] vimto25:
Maybe a silly question but how do I no what version I have?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
No not true..

EU version is actually international.. that's chinese calls it .. I call it EU :)

They should do so the software work for all phones. Same software functionality, would be easier to update to all phones then
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Simona Simmy:
Someone actually uploaded picture of models .. here : http://xdaforums.com/mate-7/general/help-options-getting-dual-sim-version-t3088255/page2
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
There is only a few days to the month may. I have a feeling that even if they did promise us May if it will be may it will be in the last minute in 30th may.

I would of course be very happy if it was released 1th may.

There should be some kind of buzz and leaks on chinese websites regarding Lollipop, lets face it for chinese smartphones XDA is not the main resource for information, it will be on "underground" chinese forums first in chinese language which is hard to google since most people do not speak chinese.

If the Lollipop really is getting closer we should start seeing sign soon I think..

I did before say I would wait a couple of weeks before I did install the Lollipop to wait for feedback from other versions..

if it there is any battery drain problem or something, but now I have decided I have waited long enough I will just

pull the trigger directely. Cause I am ready to take the chance to get a faster more smooth GUI.

The GUI is kind of smoth but not "fast" enough which make me productive. I want to switch between apps as fast as possible

I am very fast with writing also so everything needs to be quck quick quick otherwise I get frustrating if the GUI slow down my tempo.

p8 has recently been released it has lollipop plus slightly faster cpu I will try to find some youtube videon on the P8 and see how fast the GUI is..of course

I know in the developer options it can be set faster, the default setting in Mate 7 is very slow, I guess it is fast enough for old ladies but not for younger guys who want fast fast fast

GUI experience. To use your phone fast is a craft, the more you use it the faster you become so speed is very important of GUI and app switching.

I think with software optimiziations it can be improved, as it is now it " working" but I am always frustrated that is not faster, it make me want to upgrade phone asap.

But I hope there will be a improvement in lollipop, just a slightly improvement in speed would make a big difference.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] GadgetMe:
Yup, I will also install it right away (if i still own the phone when it finally comes that is) I used Lollipop on my 3G and i loved several of things about the lollypop ex. the notification system, so i´m a little bummed that they have not even said anything about release date :( especially because i actually really like the mate7 so much i could easy be a Huawei customer in the future again, but not if this is gonna be the way they act in regards to updates
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
You will most likely not notice any difference that it is lollipop that is installed, it will look pretty much the same, I do not think any new functions or the new notifaction system will be inlcuded sadely.. which is one of the highlight of lollipop.. what we get it some kind of "lollipop lite" version.. not synonymous with the Nexus version.

If it is not released in may lollipop I will probably sell this device!

I am tired of waiting...
[Ascend Mate 7 General] GadgetMe:
Why would they remove the new notification system? Seems to me that would defeat the reason to bring lollypop
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
Cause.. they want it still to be the EMUI experience... not a android vanilla copy cat..

Trust me...you will be disappointed with all Nexus functions will not have in "our" lollipop.

Google better have a good solution for this for android 6.0.. this is pathetic..that is have to be so hard to upgrade to new android version..
[Ascend Mate 7 General] GadgetMe:
Hmm but the notification system now i a lot like Android 4.4 in functions (maybe not looks) so i doubt they would ruin the new functions line the notification on lockscreen and so on

I wish google would just make a killer flagship nexus phone with a great camera and fingerprint sensor like mate 7 :)
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
Try to find some p8 reviews on youtube, I know there is plenty already, THIS is EXACTELY how our Mate7 will look like, TRUST ME.

For me it is as i miss smartlock on my mate 7
[Ascend Mate 7 General] AhsanU:
I purchased the AM7 after living with an LG G3 for 7 months, thinking this was going to be a long term investment (as in, keep this phone for at least a year), but it looks like it won't happen. The G4 is looking appealing and the lack of 5.0 is becoming unsettling.

I was aware that this phone wasn't going to get android updates anywhere near as quick as Nexus devices, but this is getting ridiculous. I'm quite tired of the horrendous multitasking and lack of smoothness sometimes.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
I share your opinion and frustration.

[Ascend Mate 7 General] netvlada:
what 5.0 have so important which we do not have now?
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
I guess the main reason Is we are all bored with current software..

For me is faster software.. better loading times when switching between apps I hope 5.0 will solve that.

They have some valid complaints about EMUI 3.1. I'm not so keen on an update really ...
[Ascend Mate 7 General] dekraan:
It is taking a long time. When buying my Mate 7, I was also considering the Nexus 6. And although I do not regret my decision, because I am reading about battery life issues with the Nexus (and battery was my primary goal for buying the mate) and I love the fingerprint scanner, I am having some second thoughts based on the poor update speed and the lack of an active community or support for great ROMs.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
Passing by..
[Ascend Mate 7 General] Easy Computer:
I am guessing that almost everybody who bought mate7 researched it and found out that Huawei is a bit slow w/ updates.

Sent from my HUAWEI MT7-TL10
[Ascend Mate 7 General] blackinfinity:
I think slow updates is a google problem.. this is a major flaw in the OS design.
[Ascend Mate 7 General] stanlawren:
Wrong. Slow updates is an OEM problem and has nothing to do with Google. Lollipop was released as early as September last year and by November LG had already updated the G3 to 5.0 and in February to 5.0.2.

Huawei is always slow when it comes to updates
