[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maierbosch:
Hello.

I am from germany. My Mate 8 is a chinese one with original B162 Rom. Notifications don`t work for me.

What i did:

data in sleep mode enabled

apps are allowed to stay active at sleep

notification in priority mode

rooted device

made WhatsApp and Android Wear (for my huawei watch) to system apps with Titanium Backup (i bought it before ...)

freeze phone manager

I dont`t get my notifications all the time. Very bad are notifications for my huawei watch. My phone rings (WhatsApp), but my watch doenst. Then i start the Android Wear app and the notifications are pushed to my watch.

The phone is ok. I am coming from Samsung S6 Edge+. But the notifications MUST come always.

What else can i try?

(sorry for my bad english)
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobile88:
I had only notification issues with whatsapp - however the situation has improved greatly after I installed the app Push Notification fixer ( no root version)

Now I'd say missed notifications is very very much lessen, probably around 10+ % only

All my other apps eg Maildroid ( only mail app I used), Friendcaster, some newsfeed app, XDA etc no notification problems at all

Mine is China set on B156 firmware ( non rooted)
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maierbosch:
I have now installed push notifications fixer root version. Hopefully this will work for me.

I'm having also the issue with gmail. When i open the app there are 5 emails waiting for me...
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adriangb:
I just bought a Huawei Mate 8, but I'm considering returning it and have 2 questions about this device:

1) Anyone know around what dates we'll be able to buy one shipped from China?

2) Do you think the 820 will hold an efficiency advantage large enough to compare to the Kirin 950 in battery life, despite the smaller battery?

Also, I am kind of tired of some of the bugs (no lockscreen notifications, etc.)
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docfunk:
I'm having the same problem, I made all the changes that are listed on xda, updated to b162, factory rest a couple times and still the same, contacted support and they answered, the phone was tested and everything is working.. Lol..

I got fed up after a week and now it's on Craig's list..
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbmc83:
i doubt the 820 will have any efficiency advantage over the kirin 950, especially considering how extreme EMUI is designed towards battery life ;)

what do u mean with ur first question? the time it takes for the shipping from china? that depends on the shop and the shipping carrier he chooses. in any case, u can just order one right now if u wanted to, no specific dates necessary...
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themissionimpossible:
First Qualcomm 820 Antutu real scores (Xiaomi Mi 5) are indeed impressive, about 30000-40000 higher than Kirin 950.

I think that to compete with the 820 Huawei is probably going to release an upgraded Kirin 955(?) with its new P9 flagship to be announced in March.

[IMG="antutu"]http://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/xiaomi-mi5-benchmark-03.jpg[/IMG]
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexguitar77:
Yes, big regrets. I think that the hardware is average but it is not worth 600€! Furthermore the Android EMUI version lacks simple things like it is not possible to disable the incremental volume ringtone that I found very annoying. I thougth this phone was superior to samsung but I was totally wrong. If I could go back I would not buy it.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbmc83:
that higher antutu score is mostly due to the stronger graphics, which was expected. all other parts are on par with the kirin 950 ;) so cpu, ram, UX, etc is all pretty much the same score wise.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themissionimpossible:
This is true (but not completely sure about RAM score), but from a pure marketing point of view, people generally look mostly at the AnTuTu score, and IMHO for Huawei wont be possible to stay so far behind its major Chinese competitors like Xiaomi and Meizu.

If not able to improve graphic performance of its Kirin, maybe Huawei could come back to using Qualcomm processors again...
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbmc83:
well as for "far behind" we will first have to see how well the GPU in the SD820 and Exynos 8890 fares under continuous load. in opposition to more powerful gpus, the Kirin 950 doesnt throttle , even under prolonger periods of stress. so playing games, after a few minutes the Kirin 950 gpu actually ends up faster than other flagship gpus ;) youre correct in implying that this strategy is difficult to properly do marketing for, but in the end the actual real life experience is what counts for the user :)
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themissionimpossible:
Marketing is the most important factor for selling large numbers.

Very technical details are unfortunately seen by few people...;)

Today Huawei announced a collaboration with Leica for smartphone cameras.

http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/136...a-could-the-huawei-p9-be-the-first-to-benefit

It will be attractive if the new P9 actually should include a Leica optics....

http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/huawei-p9-release-date-news
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbmc83:
also very curious as to the P9 :) its rumoured to sport a modified version of the Kirin 950, a potential Kirin 955/960, maybe with higher clocks and/or stronger graphics? lets see how that goes...also concerning the rumoured 6GB of RAM :D

such a super-insanely high specced phone would have to cost what....like 1k €? :o
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themissionimpossible:
The P9 price should be comparable to the previous P8, about 500-600 Euro, which was a true success in selling and largely contributing to set Huawei as the 3rd smartphone supplier.

I don't think Huawei will change its marketing strategy with the P9.

But probably there will be 4 P9 variants, and maybe the most powerful model will sell for more than 600 euro.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freeje:
Read a review somewhere and it says that the 820 still throttles.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themissionimpossible:
Unfortunately I suspect that also a throttling 820 will perform better of a Mate 8 in case of 3D games due to the Kirin 950 poor 3D graphic performance...:(
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbmc83:
well the mate 8 isnt for hardcore gamers but rather for people interested in superb UI / cpu performance, long battery life and a great display ;)
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themissionimpossible:
This is the main reason I bought the Mate 8, unbeatable!...:)

For me a 6" phone is slightly too big.

Waiting for a 5.5" P9 model to see its battery life.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badrsj:
Well folks we'll move to the USA version. But the notification issues have to do with app rights of running in the background

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilovejdmtoy:
i like this phone but for some reason my phone does not work well with t mobile, only when i get 4G on the bar, i can go online. whenever it turns to 3G or H+, i lost internet completely. not sure whether it is bez of the setting or what. btw, i have the nxt L29 version.

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kefrayba:
To be honest, if my phone hasn't broken last month, I would have wait to buy S7.

As of now, I dislike the way I can't setup the cutoff date for mobile data tracking.

The alarm setting seems counter-intuitive in comparison to Galaxy S4, I think the alarm would stop working when you flip the phone even if you set snooze.

I can't turn off the just notification sound... Which is quite important for me. Overall, the sound settings seems to be rather limited and archaic. Was there a way to even change the native equalizer?

That's my issues so far. They are all rather minor and firmware related. I supposed some major ROM or firmware overhaul in the future could fix these issues. I don't think I would hold out hopes for them... I knew that I will most likely return to Samsung Galaxy in the future.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxld:
This, totally this. I am not interested in gaming performance if my phone dies through the day. I'll take great battery life over less smooth gameplay (which I haven't seen in games I play) anyday.

I had s7 edge buyers remorse. And am now quite happy with mate 8.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maierbosch:
I sold my mate 8 and then I had S7 Edge for 14 days. Superior Display and camera. But the system doesn't run as smooth as the mate 8.

Now I returned the S7 Edge and bought a mate 8 again ?

Bigger screen

Much better speaker

Smooth smooth smooth ?

Fast as hell

Twice battery life

No edges

Cheaper

You can use external SD as main memory

So I am happy with mate 8. When they fix notifications problem it will be the best phone ever...

Sorry for my bad English. I am from Germany.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dannejanne:
No buyers remorse for my Mate 8 at all. Regarding my S7 Edge on the other hand... not sure I'll keep it. I see the Mate 8 as the better phone for me.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniville:
I hope Huawei will fix the notification issue but I'm not sure it happens. The phone is incredible for me, it has all I want in a mobile phone, I don't need more, I don't need less, I only need Huawei will fix notification issue. Sorry for my bad English too.

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grofock:
Hi ajsmsg78,

First of all, i wanted to thank you for all your awesome work...

Do you think your speedtests were done in LTE-Advanced or in "simple" LTE (cat4) ? Cause in your captures, I didn't see "4g+" logo.
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajsmsg78:
We only have 4g here. We do have wideband lte here which is being rolled out which is the faster lte and probably America's version of 4G+. It can go up to 150mbps in some places. I've never seen a 4g+ logo on any phone I've had but I have seen over 100mbps.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kintantee:
Really I'm just looking to get my phone back to a "stock" condition. I'm not sure I understand which RUU is right for my situation. I haven't updated anything in about a year so my software is a bit outdated.

Here's what I'm working with:

Bootloader unlocked with HTC Dev

S-ON

HBOOT 2.09

TWRP 2.7.0.8

Two ROMs currently saved

(stock) 3.17.651.5 <-- just goes black after a long HTC screen

Cyanogenmod 10 (I think) <-- boots fine

It appears the latest on HTC's site is 3.17.651.9. Will that do the trick? Other guides here point the same page but specifically refer to 3.17.651.4. Is there a reason I would go with .4 over .9? Is there a some other option?

Thanks for your help!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ocarinaz64:
If you're looking to get it back to "stock", any Jewel RUU ought to get you there. Though, I do recommend using the most up-to-date version you can find. Newer ones have updates included. The newest one is 4.13.651.4.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoubleXz:
I need some help unrooting my S6 with cm13 6.0, I installed the cm13 and the camera and flashlight isn't working, also the screen seems a little fuzzy in some rare cases. I wanted to see if it's the cm13 that malfunction the apps. So I want to change back to stock firmware. I was told that if I was flashed to 6.0 I cannot use the old 5.0's firmware to flash and instead I would need 6.0 stock firmware to flash. I want to test out if the phone still malfunctions in stock firmware, if so I will send it in for repair. Please help, thank you.

Hi all,

I'm building my own touch rom and i had a question:

How do i enable autorun on first boot to load a .tsk file.

I've searched and tried a couple of thins but it dind't work.

Gr. bram
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xvx45:
you must edit your extended ROM for that ;) or just replace Default_stwater_xxxx.gif files in Windows directory to make default theme. For color it's in the default.hv file :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bram_smulders:
Allright, thnx for help, lets see if it works!!

Gr. bram
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xvx45:
other help :

In the Extended ROM use cusTSK.exe

in "Config.txt" add a line like :

EXEC:\Windows\cusTSK.exe \Windows\bram_smulders_TSK.tsk

That 2 ways to do the same things.

Have a good ROM coocking ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] WizeMan:
You better use the cusTSK.exe method (extended rom, autorun) because if you use an OEM package with registry settings you will have a bug:

When u go and change to another theme on your rom, then go back to the default, the colors will not be the ones you set on the reg settings, but the wm6 default ones.

So better use the CusTSK.exe, that way you dont mess with the registry and you wont have any bugs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xvx45:
That why I say he must edit default.hv to have the colors he want after hard rest/change skin ;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hanlon's Razor:
Hi Techies,

I recently rooted my phone and everything was hunky dory. A couple of days ago, after updating all the apps, I got this message (regarding bcmon):

"# SuperSU

The SU binary needs to be updated"

When I clicked on it, I got this:

"SuperSU

If you have a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM, that can be used to (try to) install the SU binary. This is recommended for HTC devices. How would you like to install the SU binary?

Normal TWRP/CWM"

Subsequently, I clicked on the latter. And that was the beginning of the problem.

Now I'm stuck at boot. The droid hasn't frozen but I can't get past boot, in that it returns me to the same screen repeatedly.

These are the contents on the screen:

CWM-based Recovery v6.0.4.5

- reboot system now

- install zip

- wipe data/factory reset

- wipe cache partition

- backup & restore

- mounts & storage

- advanced

After that, I tried many of the options to no avail. I even tried "reboot recovery" and "reboot to bootloader" but it returns to the same screen.

My specs are:

Samsung Galaxy Win GT-I8552

4.1.2 (Jellybean?)

Please help asap as most of my files and contacts are on it. Any help will be highly appreciated.

Thank you.
