I have now tested your modified boot.img [MENTION=1397125]ajsmsg78[/MENTION] that you posted in this thread and so far notifications are working again even when it has idled for a while.

edit: nope spoke too soon it just happened again. Though "ignore optimizations" was not enabled for that specific app. Will do some further testing before conclusion about this modified kernel.

edit 2: notifications stop working even with the modified kernel and appears first when I turn on the screen. Now how do I disable Doze since ADB does not work when phone is on? Shame if it can't be done as I have to leave this ROM in that case.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Notifications are a Huawei issue. I deleted more apps from system/app and priv-app to see if it helps. I know deleting HwSystemManager probably helps but then you lose the ability to use Do Not Disturb which, for some reason in Marshmallow, Huawei decided to integrate into the Phone Manager. I removed all the power manager crap and HWAppObserver so time will tell. I don't think it matters what build youre running, until Huawei fixes this issue we are stuck with dealing with it.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
If ADB isnt working, it's a driver issue. I had the same problem when I first got the phone and had to face the driver in device manager to get it working. Make sure USB debugging is turned on in Developer Options as well or it won't work.
[Mate 8 Android Development] dannejanne:
Well, ADB is working because it finds my device it's just that its shown as "unauthorized" and I don't get a dialog on the phone asking me to authorize it.
[Mate 8 Android Development] bricky23:
Hoe did you fix it? I have the same problem.
[Mate 8 Android Development] Unreal988:
on b168?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
I'll check out the kernel tonight, sometimes it gets late and I forget to do something lol
[Mate 8 Android Development] dannejanne:
Thanks no rush. In the meantime I'll try the Doze Settings Editor app and play around.

When I was using this ROM adb wasn't working, the prompt to authorize never appears. Didn't get time to troubleshoot but I thought it was something to do with me.

but this boot image it doesn t for b165?

sorry for my bad english
[Mate 8 Android Development] Shinyji:
First you select a random theme like 'Utopia' or 'Obsidian magazine) and you will see that the icons will change, but not the background. After that you select the theme you want and bam. I hope this works for you

---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

Anyone got some delay when you turn off the screen? When I click the power button to turn off the screen it got like 1 sec delay...
[Mate 8 Android Development] Ephemera:
Turn off power button double click in k-settings
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
OK,it should work now. Download this boot.img and flash it and let me know if adb is working for you. It works for me now. After your confirmation I'll add it to the rom. I modified the adbd file in ramdisk/sbin and used Chainfire's adbd Insecure file to get it working.

How to disable camera sound?
[Mate 8 Android Development] dannejanne:
You have not done any audio mods on this ROM right? It might just be my imagination but last night I thought I heard even more dynamics in the sound compared to B152 that I was on prior. Maybe Huawei changed something? Might just have been extra stoned ;D
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
No, no audio mods. Maybe you had some bad reefer. :D
[Mate 8 Android Development] dannejanne:
More like awesome in that case! [emoji23]

[Mate 8 Android Development] Cydras:
With your dpi changer i changed my dpi to 380. This is totally awesome!

[Mate 8 Android Development] DarkSilentSC:
Is there a way to raise the navigation bar height max limit higher than specified in the ROM? It's still too small for me. Also maybe distancing navbar icons too?

[Mate 8 Android Development] dannejanne:
I have good news [MENTION=1397125]ajsmsg78[/MENTION] ADB is working for me too now. So now it works to disable Doze with the command. Though it did work by using the Doze Settings Editor app too.
[Mate 8 Android Development] Filgaliel:

Hmm I had Exchange Services drain this morning after taking phone off charger. Drained 5% in about an hour. I've never had any drain on this phone before it's been rock solid.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
B171 will be released soon, hopefully that fixes some of the bugs that Huawei has had since the phone came out.
[Mate 8 Android Development] dannejanne:
I cleared the cache/data of Exchange Services and rebooted will monitor and see if it happens again.

---------- Post added at 08:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 AM ----------

I'm on 320. Exactly what I want from a phone. Big screen small content. Feels more like a computer that way. All Android OEM's have too high DPI in my opinion this is something that Apple gets right on their phones. I thought the "small" viewing mode that Huawei has was still too big for this phone.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
I was using 320 but sometimes tapping things was tough. I am using 350 now and things are still small but much better.
[Mate 8 Android Development] Cydras:
Now i am using 362. What Keyboard are u using? I use Swiftkey, and when i set everything under 360 the keyboard becomes very big :(
[Mate 8 Android Development] dannejanne:
Still drain after clear cache and reboot :I

The phone keeps syncing my mail constantly apparently. I'll try deleting and add account again (edit: this fixed it for now, hope it does not come back).

ajsmsg78 Very very thnx pro for the best ROM for mate 8 battery no drain now double touch work and all rim perfect very thnx man???
[Mate 8 Android Development] Tavros:
Great ROM ! Works perfect.

Just two questions:

- After first boot the phone made a huge download. 50 Mbit/s full downlaod for at least 2 minutes....Anyone knows why?

- Blame me, but the only thing i miss, is the Huawei keyboard.. Is there any way to reinstall it?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Just adjust the size of the keyboard in SwiftKey settings.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
You can add it to the rom before you install it. I have the remove apps listed in the OP. Just a quick question though. What do you like about the Huawei Keyboard? Everything about it sucks in my opinion. When something like SwiftKey is available for free why would anyone want to use the Huawei one? The Huawei apps are so basic and there are so much better alternatives in the play Store. This is just my opinion though. SwiftKey, AquaMail and Textra are probably the best in class I'm their category.
[Mate 8 Android Development] Cydras:
Thank you i didn't know that swiftkey has these setting :D

This is awesome!!

The same issue like in B165 ROM. After turning on "Double touch" in couple of days black screen appears. The only way to reboot bu holding power key for >10 seconds. I switched off "Double touch". I have L29
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
It's not really supposed to be enabled as it's buggy. I would leave it disabled. The same thing happened on my Mediapad X2 until Huawei finally fixed it about ten updates later.
[Mate 8 Android Development] rowihel2012:
yea leave it disabled

[Mate 8 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
This is a shame as it's the only way I turn on the screen on my current G4 as well. Really hate picking up the phone to press the power button on the side/back.

So DT2W is definitely a no-go for now on the Mate 8? :(

Latest ROM camera app is really sluggish and buggy. As soon as taking a picture causes app to crash.

[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Flash KangVIP B168.
[Mate 8 Android Development] deaad:
Your Rom made my day. I'm a proud owner of the NTX-AL10 64GB directly from China. Previously I tried using the L29 version of your rom and Helium backup was working fine (com.koushikdutta.backup). but the phone freezed every now and then. So I flashed this correct rom but now I receive an error message when I make a backup saying maby I have a desktop backup password, I don't. I need It to backup and restore between devices. Do you have any Idea to fix it?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
It's too buggy right now to enable. It causes some glitches which I don't want to have in the rom. When Huawei fixes it, I will add it in.
[Mate 8 Android Development] somboons:
Could you please guide me for integrate Kang VIP with huawei stock ROM ? Maybe I will cook for L29 .
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
In K-Settings under Notification Settings uncheck Show Status Bar Lunar. In Lockscreen & Desktop Settings uncheck Lunar Calendar and Desktop Weather Lunar. At the lock screen swipe up and go to covers and remove the pre-installed ones and nothing will be in Chinese. I'll remove them from the rom in the next update.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
You will only have to a factory reset.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
I haven't been able to reproduce that issue.
[Mate 8 Android Development] cih997:

I don't install cust from zip file too. it's working very well.
[Mate 8 Android Development] dlorean:
debloated the zip a liitle bit more and deleted the hwstartupguide (thanks somboons) rom is working now but has some bugs? after installing xposed, some apps like calender, have a black line on top of the screen where it normaly shows the name of the app.

solved the problem by deleting the color xposed modul.
[Mate 8 Android Development] maisanfabregas:

- zip the new rom (format .zip)

But when i try to flash the new rom, i have an error wich say : "Could not fin 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in zip file."

This adbd's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set; try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong.

Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device.

No, it doesn't. The only way internal storage gets wiped is if you do a format data to remove encryption or you accidentally wipe internal storage.

So I did use Format data that will wipe everything includes internal storage?

In advance wipe, which one should I wipe? Data, system, cache and dalvik?

Yeah, going to Wipe then format data erases internal storage. Going to regular Wipe, Advanced wipe you can wipe everything except internal storage if you don't want it erased.

I tried to change the 'View mode' from the default: large to medium, and asked for reboot. After a successful reboot, i was not able to view anything and could only see wallpaper and nothing else. Ended up having to clean flash as OS was unusable.

Is this 'View mode' conflicting with DPI Changer in K-Settings? or is it just me facing this issue?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Yeah, don't use the view mode. When changing the DPI if it breaks the lockscreen, drag the little camera icon up to get into the phone. Go into the build.prop and change all three lines, ro.sf.lcd_density, hw.lcd_density and qemu.sf.lcd_density to the same values that you want, then reboot. It seems to fix the lockscreen. You can't change the View Mode in settings once you change the DPI as it won't work properly so I would refrain from using it. Use the DPI tuner instead.

There are several bugs .. maybe an update when it comes out on the basis of B170 that fixes bugs notifications?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Notifications are a Huawei issue. In all system versions I've tried, B165 B168, B170 notifications appear to work fine and I thought they were fixed but then sometimes they just don't work. This isn't a rom bug though. I've been using this since I put out the B168 version and it has been running smoothly with good battery life since then. On EMUI 3.1 on my Mediapad X2 removing the HwSystemManager.apk fixed the issue but if you remove that on EMUI 4.0 you can't use No Disturb Mode or any apps that turn the sound off because it just doesn't work. That is my main complaint with EMUI 4 as the Do Not Disturb is linked in with the Phone Manager app which really pisses me off. I like the phone but the software needs so much work that they should just go stock Android.
