[Mate 8 General] neeteshkurup:
When you boot the phone, do you see any messages in orange that state that your phone is not secure? If you do not have the message, then actually your bootloader is locked but displays as unlocked.

I manually locked my bootloader on B321. Post the automatic factory reset, when I checked the bootloader, it still showed Bootloader Unlocked. But even with this being displayed, I was unable to flash any commands. Then I manually unlocked the bootloader again. Once the phone auto reset, I shut it down, booted back to bootloader and flashed TWRP.

Give this a try again. Since I got the same errors like you, I think your bootloader is also not actually unlocked. So try to unlock again. A good confirmation of actual unlock is when you boot the phone, if no warning message in orange, means bootloader still locked.

Please could you try to record a video in 60fps at night in a lit room to see if the video is ok with the new firmware ??
[Mate 8 General] Pfeffernuss:
This is impossible with any firmware / mobile phone for that matter :good:
[Mate 8 General] tsiglas:
What do you mean with that?

Have you try LG V10 video 60feets?
[Mate 8 General] Pfeffernuss:
I guess lit is the keyword. At night in a low lit room the measly sensor won't pick up enough light at 60fps. At night in a properly lit room all will be fine of course.
[Mate 8 General] tsiglas:
Yes but in mate 8 B180 (and all other previous versions) in dark room with normal light the difference between 30 and 60 feets it's scary and disappointed...but with LG V10 with the same condition I have no deference at all...
[Mate 8 General] geornirv:
What do you mean ?? Galaxy s6 and above hava no problems as far as I know.
[Mate 8 General] Pfeffernuss:
Low light 60fps is no success for any camera with an ant-sized sensor.
[Mate 8 General] dj69holland:
with firmware b321, there is a big difference compared to b180..so huawei has been making small improvements.
[Mate 8 General] hearts king101:
Done already but I will try again
[Mate 8 General] cline2:
I finally got it!!!! You still need to get code to unlock bootloader even ur phone is already unlocked.

You need to use DC-locker and read bootloader code. Once you have code

Phone in fastboot mode

Type flash oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxc

If it works. FRP message will pop up

YES (warranty void)

It will erase everything

You will be able to flash twrp.

I am on twisted mate 8 ROM.
[Mate 8 General] hearts king101:
I've done this before and I have never seen FRP message before

What does it mean?
[Mate 8 General] cline2:
Do you have code ?

If so, put phone in fastboot mode (turn off the phone and hold volume down and plug USB in)

Run CMD

Go to folder where fastboot.exe is

Type fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If it work

Factory Reset Protection (FRP) will pop up and will ask you

Yes ( warranty void)

or

No

Just press volume up for yes and press power. It will erase everything and reset factory and your phone is unlocked

You can flash twrp

Has anyone with Chinese AL10 phone got the B321 update OTA yet?

Mine is still on B172 and says that there is no update available.
[Mate 8 General] Ali5592:
download it manually in the development section and update your phone using the dload methode.
[Mate 8 General] rwbcca:
I have just found AL10 B321 update from the following Chinese website: www.huaweirom.com. For those who don't have access to their Baidu cloud download. I have downloaded a copy to my Google Drive, you can get it from this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B90FX89DinAhd1NRazhXRmV1cFU/view?usp=sharing
[Mate 8 General] richlum:
Thanks. If I update using the download method, will I still get ota updates in the future?
[Mate 8 General] bluheart:
Every region will get the updates :)

I shall wait for B321 as well

;)

Why worry about OTA when xda is here richlum

You will get ota
[Mate 8 General] tsiglas:
Yes but only if your version is AL10 and you are completely stock (NO root NO unlocked bootloader)
[Mate 8 General] Jipece:
But when do you think it will come through OTA ? I have a full official AL10 version with B172 ROM...
[Mate 8 General] tsiglas:
So why to wait OTA just install through dload method
[Mate 8 General] Jipece:
Oh it's very simple, because I can't copy the UPDATE.APP in dload directory...and I don't know why ? Maybe because it's not rooted ? That's why I request when it will come through OTA
[Mate 8 General] stesteste:
Download ef file explorer from play and easy rar and use that

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:09 PM ----------

Create folder called dload ,

Download b132 ,

Download easy rar ,

Extract it and copy update only to dload folder ,

Turn phone off and then hold power volume up and volume down and power all at same time let go after you see huawei logo after 2 seconds ,it should uodate
[Mate 8 General] petrofsky77:
Hi all,

Just sharing something i found online. This is a theme pack for Android N Beta for Mate 8. Suitable for those who don't like Huawei's default theme and would prefer something more stock looking. Warning : this theme pack file is suitable for Huawei devices running EMUI 4.x only.

Steps

1. Download the file from here :

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwFB8T1LMC...ew?usp=drivesdk

2. Copy the file to HWTheme folder

3. Open Theme Manager and select it.

4. Profit.

Credits goes to whoever compiled this icon set.

Is it possible to flash firmware from another region on L29?
[Mate 8 General] petrofsky77:
Requires unlocked bootloader to do that ...
[Mate 8 General] tsiglas:
On L29 you can flash without root or unlocked bootloader the versions C636-C432-C10 with dload method but you can't flash AL10 or C185 versions... You have to know that after cross flash you will loose OTA and online themes until you flash back your version
[Mate 8 General] Sm007hCriminal:
Thanks for the clarification.

Can you help me locate the full firmware package for my NXT-L09 C212 B120 in the huawei server using the package capturer app?
[Mate 8 General] szkorhetz:
Hi!

I am on B170, with a L29 version.

After I turn mobile data off for a longer period, for example in the night, I can't get normal mobile data back, until I toogle airplane mode on and off, after that, everything's back to normal. What do I mean my normal mobile data?

I still get notifications and messeges from every push service, but chrome is dead, I can't open any link or open any photo in Facebook or anything.

Do you have any idea or did anyone else experience the same?
[Mate 8 General] dr.haitham010:
Me too

If I turned off mobile or restart it when I toggle mobile data on sometimes it works but usually it doesn't toggle on unless I make aeroplane off then on.

The problem from first version b103 till the last one b180 and didn't solved yet.

Chrome works with me like a charm and no problems with it.
[Mate 8 General] qwerty1q:
Brill! Just upgraded, notification works like a charm!
[Mate 8 General] bissa:
b180 fixed notifications issue but I guess this firmware disables doze so notification works as normal but battery drain is worse than old builds.
[Mate 8 General] qwerty1q:
Didn't know that. I'll see in a day or two. Can I downgrade to my old rom - dual sim 64gb L29C636B170 ? Where I can find it?

I'm not sure about that either... B180 has much more better battery than B103... That's for sure...and I think is very close or maybe the same with B170... Any way after all my version C636 has only take this 2 updates (B103, B170, B180)
