Last Huawei for me

Worst support in the world

The first and last Huawei for me

Good phones bad support

What the point of hundreds of model for the same phone .
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
I just checked Huawei download page for all Asia pacific countries, it seems there is a numbering switch from C470 to C636, how did i come to this conclusion because you will find two links of download one for the older version lollipop v200 with C470 and the other link for Marshmallow v320(Official stable version) with C636.

So if you don't want to wait for the OTA, just download the version close to your country. I am downloading the Malaysian or Singaporian version, which is the same as the Thailand one. :good:

I am updated with C470B180 on C636B320, like everything, but how to return the guest mode, and keyguard?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] emreng:
I suppose this is not compatible with china version, right guys? I bought mine from china, it is written that "gra-ul00" on back of the phone, but software version goes like "gra-ul00c00b230". it says there is no update.

kind of weird, china version must be the first one to get android 6.0 but it keeps saying there is no update while everyone gets it. :(
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GryphonA:
Yes, that is correct! It is just like doing normal flashing of the firmware.

Just tried to update that 80kb file , with updater ==>> Local update ==>> update.app (80kb) but FAILED ... mine is C433B180
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GryphonA:
Ok, that's good!! [emoji4] the process of flash ing the 18kb update.app file should fail at around 30% I think. I recommend you flash now the c470 B180 or any other previous version of the c470 before upgrading via Ota to MM C636 B315 or 320... Give us a feedback once you have done.. thabk you

---------- Post added at 07:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:29 PM ----------

You can flash same like all the others huawei P8. The file update.app is able to port your chinese ul00 to cXX to C470 (asia firmware). You will be able then to flash MM firware c636 B315 or 320...
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Just flash the firmware no need to flash vendor or anything else. Just put the dload folder in external memory and go to update from settings and choose local update and select the file. Its already compatible with C470B180 & C470B200 & C636B316 . The picture below is from the Installation manual of C636B320 firmware.

C470 is SEA (South East Asia). There is no MM update yet of C433 (MEA) and it's too long to wait. Other versions are already enjoying Marshmallow and mine (C433) is still waiting.

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Hi, sorry this is off topic. Since you are on a Chinese firmware can you do a call record?. If you can. Do you mind copying "HwCallRecorder" folder or HwCallRecorder.apk either in system/app or system/priv-app also build.prop. I would like to see if i can make it work on other regions.

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Ty bro, wow this belongs to Marshmallow, by the way can you tell me from which folder you pulled them is it from "app" or "priv-app" and what are the permissions for each folder sorry for the trouble. You see i went back to Lollipop to see if the HwCallRecorder from other huawei devices works. but it didn't neither on Lollipop nor on Marshmallow. So it's definitely the app itself it doesn't seem to work. I get the record button in dialler but when you click record i get the message " unable to start voice ....somthing" on Marshmallow but when i tried it on Lollipop i didn't get the message but nothing happens as if the record app doesn't exist.

Any way i shall go back to Marshmallow and try the files you gave me. Tyvm :good:

Will let you know what happens.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] datanova:
When doing call record, I always get an error message saying recoding could not start. I believe the phone need to be rooted in oder to copy system apk, unfortunately I'm not rooted, sorry.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Yeah i just tested it on Marshmallow and on Lollipop. If you add the files [MENTION=359065]Danger[/MENTION] provided on Lollipop you lose data and wifi signal. If i add them to Marshmallow after giving the defualt permissions and adding a line in build.prop. The phone boots fine, there is a record button but you get the same error message you mentioned when you try to record. I think Huawei already disabled this feature for our phone, i have yet to hear from anyone saying he can record calls using the built in record app. I hope i am wrong and there is a way to make it work. :confused:

Go to settings > Apps > click "Advanced"> Default app settings > Launcher > "Set the launcher downloaded as the defualt one"

If you set it through the launcher app it won't stick, it will go back to Huawei Launcher. I am using Nova launcher and it's always the default launcher it never changes after setting it through settings.

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
You need to install the transition package

http://xdaforums.com/android/development/downgrade-huawei-p8-ul00-marshmallow-to-t3334288

After that download & install C470B200, you can get it from Huawei website download section for your region.

There used to be a transition package on Huawei website named "GRA-UL10&GRA-UL00_Oversea Transition Package_EMUI 4.0 rollback to EMUI 3.1_Android L.zip" but Huawei removed it not sure why.

Can't Install

Hi there,

I've got a Huawei P8 (UL00 model) currently on Android 5.0.1 with Huawei's C470B200.

I downloaded the C636B320 update and tried installing from C470B181, but the update failed after reaching 15%.

I then updated to the official C470B200 build and once again, the update failed after reaching 15%.

Seems bizarre because the official spec sheet for the C636B320 update from Huawei says that it can be installed from the C470B200 build.

Anyone got any ideas on the issue?

Thanks for your help in advance.

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Try another rom's region either Malaysia or Singapore. You need to be either on B200 or B180 not B181. Try to upgrade from settings update method not using the 3 keys method. Another method used in Marshmallow:

-Safely disconnect the USB cable from the PC.

-Dial *#*#2846579#*#* to open Project Menu.

-In the menu, go to Software Upgrade > SDCard Upgrade > ‘OK’.

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] APGallardo:
Update it first to the latest version. Connect to a mobile data then in settings go to Updater>Check for Update or via Hi-suite in a PC with internet connection then click on Software update.

After you upgraded it to at least B200 try it again and it will work just fine. *except for the guest/admin mode which is no longer present. sigh.

[Android Auto General] muzicman82:
So when I'm connected to my AVH-4100NEX, audio from Spotify works. Is this actually transmitting the audio over Bluetooth (and not USB)?

When connected, I noticed I cannot play Media audio from other apps. Why is this? Any way to get all Media audio to play when connected as Android Auto?

So far, the only advantages I'm seeing for using Android Auto vs Bluetooth audio are: Maps on screen, prettier Spotify on screen, Google Now on unit. I could do most of this with the phone itself over just Bluetooth.

Don't get me wrong, I really like it and this receiver, but it seems more limited. Perhaps it's for safety, but it's not all that much safer. In Spotify, you can't scroll through all of your library or lists "for safety", but who's to say that my passenger isn't scrolling?
[Android Auto General] ReppinTheSouth:
I too have a 4100nex. I think music is played over Bluetooth. One way to know for sure is to disconnect the usb while it's playing.

As you said, you can't play music from other apps. There is a list of compatible apps that work with Android Auto. If it's not on that list, you can't use it. I didn't like the viewing restrictions on Google play music so I use an SD card for all of my music. I like Google maps and the texts over voice so for me, I like Android Auto for those reasons.

There is an app....... something reloaded. I can't think of the name but it will allow you to basically mirror your phone to the screen and you can access all of the apps. Good luck.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] galacticboy2009:
Backstory:

As some may have heard, or found out the hard way,

The latest two versions of KingRoot when run on the N910A do something slightly different (or more violently) than previous versions did.

It edits the kernel in a way that causes the device to show "KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING" in the top left corner during bootup, and from there displays

a screen which reads "System Software not authorized by AT&T has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest AT&T store for help"

The top-left corner text has at that point changed to "SECURE FAIL: KERNEL"

If I boot into download mode I can reflash the stock image (with Odin) and afterwards it boots properly, all apps and user data left untouched.

Big Questions:

Is it possible that this insecurity of the kernel could be used (even though the phone is left temporarily incapacitated) to flash something a bit.. more than stock firmware?

I don't know in what ways the kernel is changed that makes it just insecure enough to stick that way, but not enough to not engage security features to stop you from booting up completely.

Nobody has been talking about this (as far as I've seen) and I just wanted to hear something from an android expert greater than myself on the subject.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] caseyjay:
After a lot of research (credit to this thread), I can report back my experience with the N7100 for OTG and Charging at the same time.

My plan is to use the Note II in car, with audio out via USB, into an external DAC and then into my head unit. I will connect to a powered USB hub to access SD card/external storage as well as an EZCap device for Reverse Camera. A simple OTG cable permits this but there is no charging.

I bought these plugs to make my own cable ends. I created a regular USB micro plug - +ve, GND, Data+, Data- and then soldered a resistor across Pin 4 (ID) and GND. 64.9k triggers both Dock Mode and OTG. I only had a 68k and this worked fine as it's within the upper/lower tolerance range. The DIY kits allow for just enough room to fit a single resistor and is a nice clean fit in the car. The Micro USB connects directly to the powered hub and I spliced in a separate USB A male cable (+ve/GND only) for a spare power supply.

When docked, I use Tasker to run in car app (Google AutoMate), set the state/rotation/display etc; audio automatically routes to USB DAC, external storage is detected, EZcap works, and phone charges. Will need to monitor charge rate vs drain time but overall happy for the small outlay of connectors and a resistor...

In every update after 5.1.1 to 6.0 camera getting worse and worse, After B313, B317 now B321 the same **** !

Lollipop 5.1.1 is best software on Huawei P8, the battery and the camera has a very good life / quality.

After Marshmallow 6.0 yes there are some little animations.. bla bla bla but nothing special, if you want a bad battery life and a bad camera here you have marshmallow… enjoy awful upgrade..

An advise, stay with Lolllipop 5.1.1 because you don't have any reason to upgrade.

Anyone else using the new Lock Screen/Notification Drawer alternative, Good Lock, yet? If so, have you had any success with getting widgets to stick on the lock screen using a Routine? Trying to get Spotify and a Weather widget to stick and it won't.
