put into folder "dload" (doesn't matter if internatl/external SD)

Then with Vol + and - start mobile

wait until update has been installed (be patient!)

wait until Android optimization has been done>

I did That

its installing update ...only on 5% and then nothing !

Battery problem

Hi,

I have a battery problem since I cleaned the Cache Partition.

I am already on 152. Android System is always on top.

What can I do?

Answer in english or german ;)
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
ok, is it an ACTUAL battery time problem or is it just the fact that it bothers you to see android system on top? ;) what are your screen on times?
[Mate 8 General] dlorean:
Think it bothers him :) for me android system is always on top with ~15%. I get ~9h sot on a 46h cycle. With a lot of music over bt and the most of the time lte. Forget the statistic and enjoy the real battery life.

Hi,

I've using ACR pro for years accros a lot of android phones but does not work on mate 8.

I found Boldbeast call recorder which claims to be working on mate 8 (http://www.boldbeast.com/forum/topic1152-call-recorder-for-huawei-mate-8.html)

I tested and confirm it works on my B103

I landed here searching if I should manually upgrade to B152 or wait for official europe release.

Still hesitating but saw your post and thought letting you know I found a solution could help

I'm not linked in anyway with Boldbeast
[Mate 8 General] themissionimpossible:
It's being already discussed here:

http://xdaforums.com/mate-8/general/call-records-t3311383

Anyway, in my EU L29 B152 unrooted it doesn't work reliably.
[Mate 8 General] dawabz94:
Oh, okay perfect then

Thanks for sharing abt B152, call recording is important to me so I guess I'll stick to B103 (Boldbeast works flawlessly on mine / B103)

Thanks you

I have to ask, what's the difference between C185 and C432?

I have C185B103 as well.
[Mate 8 General] AngelicCore:
Apparently there is a difference, I downloaded the 1.4g full version and placed the update.app in the dload folder as stated.

Booted, started upgrading but got stuck on 5% then showed me a message saying incompatible update or something like that.

Guess the C185 can't be updated using the C432 package, at least on stock rom.
[Mate 8 General] smodigliani:
Now b152 and L29C432

Can not update from 133 to 152 by OTA.

update by 3 buttons.

And 152 i can not update further by OTA.

Why?
[Mate 8 General] themissionimpossible:
Without further info from you, I can only tell you the general rule...

when:

bootloader is unlocked, and/or

phone is rooted, and/or

phone flashed with a ROM version released for a different Mate 8 model

then...

no more OTA updates possible.
[Mate 8 General] smodigliani:
i have no root and locked bootloader. But model phone dl00. And if i set china firmware i can update ota?
[Mate 8 General] themissionimpossible:
No, as for the third statement above, no OTA if changing the original ROM model type.

If you need OTA, wait for the correct update release for your original ROM.
[Mate 8 General] smodigliani:
Thank you. It so pity. But i ll delete my dl00 rom firmware and oem info. Maybe somone has this one?

---------- Post added at 01:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 AM ----------

Can I install this b152 rom on NXT-L09 ROM B133

And one more question,I tried to install B321 on my nxt l09,which was I think b156 or 152 stock,I flashed it in twrp,after that,phone stuck at screen 'your phone is unlocked and its not trusted',if you know what im talking about,I searched on google for stock rom for nxt l09 but no luck,only b133 where my wifi doesn't work at all :P can you give me some advice on that?

btw bootloader is unlocked,and I installed twrp 3.0.0 also I wiped system cust cache and preety much everything via twrp
[Mate 8 General] themissionimpossible:
But the OTA received was only about 500MB...
[Mate 8 General] :

Extract update.zip and copy all files to you ext. sdcard in "dload" folder. Start your phone while pressing Vol+ and - and it starts to flash. What is you build number it is under settings/about phone?

[Mate 8 General] :
only twrp comes up with volume - and + & powerbutton... sorry
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
try again, u mustve pressed wrongly ;)
[Mate 8 General] :
i hold volume UP and DOWN and Powerbutton.... all at the same time... for the same time... i enter twrp

if i press only volume up button and powerbutton i enter twrp

if i press only power button and then power volume up i enter emui recovery... ...
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
emui recovery or fastboot? in any case, ull want the emui recovery to update, so ure good :)
[Mate 8 General] m3dd0g:
You must have stock recovery.
[Mate 8 General] :
eRecovery from Huawei. Yes

i only hold power button - message appears and i press 3 seconds volume up.

So the button is "Download latest version and recovery"?

Is root and twrp gone than?
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
theres the culprit ;)

im guessing the safest way for it to work would be:

backup via twrp or titanium backup / wipe & format everything / flash full stock rom / unlock bootloader, flash twrp, root, etc... / restore ur stuff from the backup (dont do complete twrp restore though, cuz then ull be back at square one :D)

one could also just unpack the update.app inside the update.zip and flash the individual components via fastboot, thats basically what was done with the B133 international version :)
[Mate 8 General] :
meh. i just try to install it now... we will see. phone shouldnt brick.

Worst case i have to flash stock, twrp and restore my backup from 2 days via twrp, right?^^
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
keep us updated on your progress :)

meanwhile, ill try to unpack the update.app, see if i can get the individual partition images out of it...
[Mate 8 General] :
oh maybe i'll wait for your solution.. its less work for me, if mine didnt work :D:D^^
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
such a lazybone, thats not how the community will profit, best to work in parallel and together :p

in any case, im able to extract everything from the update.app, but boy, are there many files.... O.o wouldnt even know where to begin :D now ill just wait for YOU to flash and test everything :p
[Mate 8 General] :
you are right. ILL DO IT!^^
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
thatta boy, just make sure to make a proper twrp backup beforehand :) oh and make sure u have the multilanguage twrp version installed, thats the one properly reading all partitions!

http://xdaforums.com/mate-8/development/recovery-twrp-rayglobe-mate-8-t3304687
[Mate 8 General] :
i dont have mulit. but no need for it.

Dont work. Since ERecovery can only work with "Wifi" it downloads the data and restore your phone to stock. nice to know but dont work with file that already are on your phone....

so you can only flash with STOCK recovery...
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
well duh, thats why i quoted maddog before, he already mentioned that stock recovery is required :D as is said before, best best is to wipe and format everything, then flash back to full stock and go from there.... ;)
[Mate 8 General] :
Or i could let the ercovery make my phone stock and then update the phone...

Anyway the question is then will root work with the new update...

I have a long day i guess xD

Gesendet von meinem HUAWEI NXT-L29 mit Tapatalk
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
yes, thats another possibility. lucky for us AL10 users, we can just flash the stock recovery via the italian knife tool and try our luck from there....unfortunately, i dont have time atm to lose a whole day playing around with my phone (even though i would LOVE to! :D)

lets just hope that the decrypted boot image from B129 also still works :)

so many possibilities! *sigh* its about time we got ourselves some rom devs on board here...
[Mate 8 General] CyberMomo:
update success

Just applied it.

Many thanks to the uploader Hen Ry

There was still no OTA for me so this helped me alot.

my phone is not rooted, no twrp installed and bootloader is not unlocked.

I used the step already described.

- Unpack "update.zip" in your internal sdcard folder named "dload"

- shutdown your phone.

- power on your phone by holding volume +&- at same time

before i had

Android : 6.0

Rom Version : Original -> NXT-L29C432B103

Modem : 21.735.00.00.031

[Mate 8 General] :
sry. i am a dumb person.
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
its not the update itself, everything was fine when i tested the rom after full wipe. it was most likely because i removed the huawei launcher, as well as other system apps from the system partition. in that case, dirty flash is not a good idea ;)

so to summarize: B152 international rom works perfectly fine on the AL10 :)
[Mate 8 General] rowihel2012:
I dont keep the ugly ios stock launcher in every huwai mobile i bought :D

I use htc m9 launcher it is fantastic
[Mate 8 General] CyberMomo:
For me B152 is a good improvement i can see after some hours that battery life is now correct. I have no longer battery drain from Android OS.

Also i am not yet able to replicate notification problem but i need more time to test it in all condition.

Realy happy for now.

Iam also strugled that you can flash update.zip directly from twrp, i think its a risky operation, not sure it stable enough to do it that way.

BTW that mean we are close to get a perfect root/twrp/last rom for our hardware.
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
flashing through twrp works perfectly fine. im also a bit puzzled, but it really does work! :)

good thing that my phone never had any battery drain problems, ran like a champ from day one (after i was finished tweaking, of course ;) so lets say day 2 :D )
[Mate 8 General] CyberMomo:
Before the update i had "software" section bigger in percentage than "hardware" section".

I tried everything to solve it like an hard reset but nothing changed.

Andoid OS was the main problem.

Now everything seem stable and even if i used the phone i loosed 6% in 5 hours (it was more 2-3% per hour before without touching it)

[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
hey buddy, u actually have the identical config, AL10 with B133 international rom, decrypted boot, unlocked bootloader and root. after flashing B152, both twrp and root were gone, so ull have to redo those things. in my particular case, the launcher was messed up and i couldnt do anything on the homescreen, a wipe/factory reset fixed that though. since i didnt have time to set up all my stuff, i just reflashed my twrp backup of my old system, so im back to B133 now :)

so yeah, in principle it works, just be prepared to setup a lot of stuff again when u flash this. and also make sure to make a backup via twrp or titanium backup first before flashing!!! especially back up the contents of ur internal memory card, cuz when u flash twrp once more ull likely have to format data partition again for it to properly work!
[Mate 8 General] oprahsbs:
Ok thanks mate. I guess i will stay on my current firmware, since everything works very well. The only thing that i notice is android os always consume 70% of the battery.
