Quite Disappointed

"Does it respond normally (touch response was a bit slow)?" - No, it still does not react as good as on B180 for me. Maybe there is only a very little improvement in speed compared to B330. But the overall performance of the finger sensor is still much worse than on B180. Really disappointed.

"Is border around icons fixed on every theme?" - Ugly borders around the icons are NOT fixed.

"What has been added (except on info), what has been removed and what has been really improved?" - 1.) Huawei-ID added (at least I cannot remember it on the previous B330), where you can use different Huawei services such as Cloud, Back-Up and more. But you have to register first, what I didn't. Now, if you want to download new themes, you also have to register on Huawei-ID. 2.) Overall speed/performance has been slightly improved, I notice less laggs when scrolling e.g.

Smart Key flashlight (double tap for me) and camera quick start (single tap for me) is still not as fast as on B180.

The battery life is the same today after the update. I will add more info if I notice new things.

PS: I did no reset after the update yesterday.

Kind regards,

CKAPP

I have the download how do i install it?
[Honor 7 General] neXusSerbia:
Thanks for info. Will you try to reset it and then test it?
[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
back to B330 is verry easy! Take the B300 Rollback file and put it into folder dload at your ext. sd.

Then press vol up +vol down + power for 4sec. -> The rollback procedure start.

After reboot copy the B330 full file into the same dload folder and press vol up+down+power again.

After 4 sec. the "update" process start again. 5 min. later you are back on B330!
[Honor 7 General] Speedo.thc:
Hi everybody, after 2 day trying, I think I will just keep the kernel / boot and patch it to get init.d work, I go back to MM+D By WBT for all improvement available

Any new testings, or this topic died?

I'm wondering, should I move from B180 to B370?

[Honor 7 General] lybad:
After the download, there was a button underneath the download "circle" saying quick update - tap that, and the phone will restart and update.

---------- Post added at 09:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 AM ----------

For me:

the fingerprint sensor is still as fast as it's ever been

Huawei ID is a pest, but there

I'm finding the UI a bit more sluggish, but might be because the update may have changed power usage settings to smart from the performance I might have been using (can't remember)

I also find the smart key works same performance as it was before.
[Honor 7 General] smolki81:
Hi, just updated from B180 to B370.

Same speed of fingerprint and smart key. Finally got option to set permissions for apps without rooting the phone. New power option for extreme battery saving. Generally what you expect from upgrade from 5.0 to 6.0.

Unfortunately my phone just randomly restarted. I hope it's not a serious bug and won't happen very often or better it will get fixed soon.
[Honor 7 General] Speedo.thc:
Hello, if someone could provide a system and cust TWRP backup after full install of B370, here the B370 don't install fully on B330, (update.zip cannot run but the update.app include is OK, so i think we don't have full B370, (just the boot/kernel and some apps).

Thanks.

Spotify lockscreen album art finally works!
[Honor 7 General] CKAPP:
Alright, I did a factory reset now and it's getting better.

+ Fingerprint sensor works well now, maybe almost as good as on B180, but still a little slower due to the animation of the flying in icons.

+ Most of the icons, I mean the borders around them, are fixed now.

+ Huawei-ID not needed anymore to change themes. Don't know why...

- Google Kalender still keeps asking me about internet access, although "Do not remind again" is ticked. Problem not fixed at all after several updates - shame on you, honor.

- Still no support for external music players on the lockscreen. For example, the VK music player. I have to unlock the phone to change the track or pause. Don't know how it is with Spotify or so... Even my Galaxy S2 was able to support this.

Regards
[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
ok, second try! This time with factory reset. THen fresh installed all apps!:p (121!)

my features now: rooted; hidable navbar; Multiwindow; NetSpeedindicator

on B370 (i did not change the selinux status) Is it nesseccary?

BTW: until twrp backups the phone ist heated up verry strong!

More than on B330!!! I think, they have changed the gouvernors.

Have tried to integrate Viper audio system but this did not work.

The drivers for viper doesn't initiate. Don’t know why.
[Honor 7 General] Admast:
Just installed it and..

It's just me or font has changed?

And found that one of my app have problem with icons (reinstall didn't helped so I assume that it is some code related problem?)

[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
[MENTION=3383705]xmonica[/MENTION]

if you are really on B140at this time,

i suggest you to stay there

.

Reasons:

* you will be not able to use fastboot if something goes wrong!

* you did not have unlocked your boot loader to get more flexibility

* to update the phone is sometimes a little risky

if you want to ignore this, follow the steps i have described here at your own risk:

MAKE A BACKUP OFF ALL YOUR DATA

FOLLOWING SOLUTION "C" YOU WILL LOST YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT THE INTERNAL SD!

Solution A:

1.) switch your phone to w-lan on!

2.) connect to your w-lan.

3.) set your phone to "setup->update-> use wlan for update!!! otherwise your money will fly out the window!:crying:

4.) if the update doesn`t be found, try to use the HiCare app on your phone to search for it!

5.) if this fails, go to Solution B

Solution B:

1.) see here -> http://xdaforums.com/honor-7/general/plk-l01-firmwares-updates-official-beta-t3272205

there you can find the update files you need.

2.) download "Beta update B140>B170 and put the update.app file into folder "dload" on your internal sd

3.) goto setup/update and search for update manually. The update file should be found now.

4.) start the update process

5). after all going alright, you should be on B170 then.

6.) than you should get the B180 update via OTA.

( if this procedure fails, you can try solution c:)

Solution C:

1.) Download the B180 update file from here: ->http://www.hihonor.com/de/support/details/?DOC_ID=77724

2.) Follow Solution B from 3.) up to end.

(maybe you have to press "vol up" &"vol down" & "power button" for more than 4 sec. to start the update.)

But think about: If your update fails, you will get a nice paperweight!!!:silly:

See my signature 1.) & 2.)!! i can give you no warranty!
[Honor 7 General] Roberto_Nunin:
Update: received via OTA, everything ok.

Thanks to [MENTION=6142732]non-toxic[/MENTION] - alternative B was working, after manually downloading and installing B170 I got OTA to B370

[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
Congratulations!

BTW: I suggest you to make a factory reset because this kind of update procedure is not able to realize a clean install!!

Some older parts of software are staying in your system! This could be problematical in the future.

Some of our users are missing special older features build in B180 after this update because they would be removed. So i will explain you the way back to B180 too.;)

the way back: (make a backup of your data before!)

1.) Download the Rollback file from the side linked further above and put it into folder 'dload' (without strokes!:D) at your external SD

3.) press vol up & vol down & power on button for more than 4 sec to start the return process!

4.) after rebooting your unit, load B180 from the honor side and but it to your `dload folder' at the ext. SD.

5.) follow description 3.)!
[Honor 7 General] Snackiz:
Does it fingerprint work normally (unlock was slow on B330)?

It feels quicker than b170, which was my previous firmware.

Does it respond normally (touch response was a bit slow)?

It feels quicker than b170, which was my previous firmware.

Is border around icons fixed on every theme?

There are ugly rounded corner borders or completely round icons on all themes I've tried. But I think that's depending on the theme.

What has been added (except on info), what has been removed and what has been really improved?

Don't really know, because I updated a few hours ago, but one thing I noticed is that for some reason Nova Launcher can not be set as the default launcher.

On B370, there is a new thing in settings called Huawei ID. You have to register there and then you can download new themes.

[Honor 7 General] fritsprive:
Just did a OTA update from b180 to b370 with Hicare and not even wiped or did factory reset, everything works fine.

Only had to reinstall ACR cal recording app, but that now also works perfect.

[Honor 7 General] zinko_pt:
Factory reset it. Yes it works right now, but trust me, Android messes up updating. HiSuit backup and recovery full and the phone will be like before. Just don't backup Google play preinstalled apps as they will be updated.

I was on B330 rooted and with TWRP. I went in HiCare and got the OTA update for B370.

So before applying OTA i've uninstalled root and restored original Recovery. Downloaded B370 but when Honor reboot and start installation, this failed at 2%. I've tried many times but same thing.

Any suggestions?

you have to fully unroot , im guessing u using supersu , there is an option to fully unroot

Updated from b180 stock to b370 via Hicare, update was fine, but now I'm having a few issues:

1. My MiBand 1S won't connect, uses Bluetooth LE, tried repairing, can't find it

2. Complains SD card is damaged, randomly reboots a bit later, complains SD card is missing, reboots again as SD card was default installation. Have to eject card, wait a minute, mount card again, set SD as default, reboot again.

3. New recent apps design is even worse than than before, 4 apps in a square was just about usable, apps all in a line is not. Any way to change that?
[Honor 7 General] Bioschnitzel:

Full B330 Rom is here http://www.hihonor.com/fr/support/details/?DOC_ID=77508
[Honor 7 General] Dani Aal:
Updated to B370 around 12h ago and I haven't seen any major, or even minor positive changes yet.

The fingerprint sensor seems a bit more sluggish, my Nova Launcher isn't working the same way it did on B330 (wallpaper not scrolling so using KLWP is impossible), the Huawei ID thing was added but I don't see any real benefit of it. Also, I can't seem to find the setting to change fonts which was on B330 i believe in settings or in Theme Engines settings.

As much as I love the specs in my H7, this will definitely be my last Huawei device just because the uncoordinated hassle that's always there when an OTA hits the shelves and also because of EMUI...
[Honor 7 General] zinko_pt:
Have you factory reset it?

Fingerprint have imperceptible performance difference

Huawei ID - backup all your stuff, unlock bootloader code

Font size - Settings, display

Nova Launcher - never had a single problem
[Honor 7 General] Dani Aal:
Factory resetted it after 24h of use. The fingerprint scanner hasn't improved by doing this either, Nova Launcher started working normally though. Font selection still doesn't show up.

Also after resetting, the phone didn't auto-download all the apps (it did some, but some were left "un"-downloaded so I had to manually download them). Spotify on lockscreen works though with album art!
[Honor 7 General] zinko_pt:
You have font selection on your right picture, just bellow wallpaper!
[Honor 7 General] Dani Aal:
As you see, it only states font size, not font type. And when going to option in question, like expected, you can only change your font size
[Honor 7 General] Dani Aal:

[Honor 7 General] zinko_pt:
True, that's what I thought you wanted.
[Honor 7 General] morganmf:
Don't keep it connected to PC via USB while doing it.

Well, precisely you don't need relocked bootloader to download OTA, but to flash it you do.
[Honor 7 General] HonorCasper:
Oh, so I've got the download now but can't flash it and you say it's because I've still got unlocked bootloader? I've never figured that out myself, thank u good sir for that information ?

[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
i have tested all available custom rom now.

during this, i have returned 3 times to stock rom.

Got available OTA`s without any problem!!! (b330->B370!)

to relock the bootblock was not necessary at all my tries!!

But after the 3. OTA update (tried to get B370 again) it was not possible to get this OTA update again!

Maybe HUAWEI has allowed only 3 retrys at one device.

be carefull and think about before you will do something wrong!
[Honor 7 General] adxuser:
[MENTION=6142732]non-toxic[/MENTION]

If you exceed the limit (if there is one) then it looks like there is at least one official page where complete B370 package can be downloaded

---------- Post added at 11:57 ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 ----------

That is not true.
[Honor 7 General] HonorCasper:
What is true then? Do I need to relock my bootloader to upgrade or not? I'm at unrooted b330 with stock recovery but with a unlocked bootloader.

I don't get Ota via hicare or update app, I've tried to download update. Zip but I can't flash it.. So what's up? What's true and what's bull****? [emoji4]
[Honor 7 General] adxuser:
[MENTION=7384190]HonorCasper[/MENTION]

Contrary to what I read here, on XDA, & also in some other places in internet there was / is no 370 OTA.

What I see & is described as: OS upgrade for early adopters^^ via HiCare.

The second thing is that software uprgrades are sent with hard to understand Huawei rules via IMEI and there are some people which hasn't received B330 yet.

From what we see now on finnish site is full B370 package being available so probably soon B370 would be sent as normal OTA, just quessing...

In any case if we have complete package available forget about any OTA and flash it directly.

ps.1. of course do it, if you want, on your responsibility, I havent loaded it this way yet

ps.2. from what I know you do not need relocked bootloader for anything connected with OTA download, firmware flashing.
[Honor 7 General] HonorCasper:
Thank u good sir! I've just learned more by 1 post than I have in 6 month's membership here on xda! I do not know much about anything here so sometimes I rely a little too much on what other people write, maybe I'm doing it again right now, but what the heck, I would still have my stock H7 and missed a lot knowledge if I didnt[emoji2]
[Honor 7 General] HonorCasper:
Soo.. If I understood correct, the zip I got with a size at 400 something MB, is not worth anything? The "real" update is only available on Finnish site?

---------- Post added at 05:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 PM ----------

But, what about all the custom roms, where did the developers get the update, they are b370 based already?

Sorry for all the questions but can I use the Finnish upgrade even though I live in Denmark?
