[MENTION=1255102]letschky[/MENTION] I have strange problem, never had before. I can't move telegram from data app to system app, root explorer say just operation failed... Actually, first time I have success but with secondary account. Than I log off that to install main and program goes back to data app? Than i can't move again. I uninstalled it and try to move, can't go... Probably i lost some old files somehow? I had similar situation with viber but was possible to move it after uninstalled and reinstall

Your Phone is rooted with Magisk oder Supersu?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ivanox1972:
Yes of course. It made some mass when i changed accounts. First time move was perfect... I don't know how to clean it everywhere and do clean again

No. Root explorer is not bad, ot works. I tried, failed. Key is in some residential files that lost feom old install... I told you all was perfect with first account. After log off, strange things, and can't fix

This is bad and lost root

I ve tried a couple tempered glass protectors, but they are not designed with a curved edge, so they will lift and over time accumulate debris under the sides. I ended up getting an IQshield and a skinomi matte protector.. I am a big fan of tempered, but the pocket fluff that accumulated did not feel premium at all... So i went with the skinomi matte first.. IT does have some clarity impact, but i can live with it, I think the IQ shield clear should be fine for near tempered glass clarity. As for cases, CaseFanatic had some cases i was satisfied with, good fit, good grip, solved the slippery metal surface issue on a big phone. They had painfully slow shipping to canada (not that bad, but a few weeks).

People commenting on the camera, just look at a p8 or p8max review, its the same sensor.

Screen is amazing, and what i m hoping for is an India release so we at least get access to an international rom. I think its unlikley to be released in NA or Europe as people tend to not like these giants.

I ordered mine from AliExpress, and had them install Gapps into system drive so it survives OTA's. Push notifications are still finicky though, which is why i m hoping for an international rom. My fix after all the settings tweeks, is to use PNF and set it to 5 mins, and lock apps in multi task screen. It annoying does impact battery life, but since it is so strong anyways, I dont mind. Still get through a day with 6 hours SOT and 35% left

Hello!

Is this a modified xposed? This one won't have the "missing modem after some reboots" bug?

Can you guys confirm?

Thanks!

Working with no probs only with the B020 root xposed.zip
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jetherson:
I downloaded

Note 8 AL10 B020 ROOT Xposed.zip

Now, what do I need to do? Thanks!
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hjfisch:
Install with twrp.

Boot to System!!!

Reboot to twrp.

Install xposed with twrp.

Done.

b.t.w. you should do a full wipe before you start.

I have myself some Note 8 beastly girth in my hands. What a glorious machine it is.

Is development happening at all for this device? Is Huawei good at making kernel source available etc?

Would love some AOSP action instead of EMUI. Even a customised stock ROM with some proper google services integration would be nice and not the Huawei services. Will we have to wait for the international version to come out?

Updated from B020 (rooted) to B022 (rooted) using Flashfire. I renamed the B022 zip file to UPDATE.APP, put it on internal storage and flashed with FF. Got some bootloops along the way, but I had a twrp backup on my drive as a safety net...(I had to use it !!!). This is not for the faint of heart ! If you are a chicken, do NOT try this at home !!! .... ??
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jetherson:
How's battery life of B022 compared to B020? I heard it's worse. Can you confirm?

Do you have xposed? If yes, any modem problems after reboots?

Thanks.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Just completed a few hours ago, so I'll have to monitor battery life etc. I don't use xposed yet.

I hope you're wrong about NA release, otherwise myself and many others will be really pissed. Also, on behalf of NA people, I can tell you I know for a fact that you're wrong about people not liking big phones here. I know tons of people like myself, wanting 7" or near 7" device with high end specs. If you look at Huawei USA facebook or twitter you will see hundreds of people, asking Huawei on social media about Honor Note 8 US release.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gn0s1s:
I agree, I think there is a decent market for a phone this size, but if you look at the gx8 or honor 5 that didn't sell well, and the sales of the honor 8 despite its rave reviews and value for money I think Huawei will be cautious. I think the p10 and mate 9 are more likely to launch here. I wish the note 8 would though, because the dual camera on the mate 9 looks terrible. My hope is that I can use the note 8 long enough for a p10 max to be released. When considering this phone I looked at the MI max but the build quality and screen quality weren't even close. The Zenfone 3 ultra was also considered but it had overly big bezels and was also a .2 inch bigger screen which got into the uncomfortable size range. The note 8 is the maximum size I want a phone to be. I hope I'm wrong about NA but from a conservative business perspective I still think India is the most likely rollout. North America just doesn't trust the Huawei name despite the 6p being a phenomenal phone.

[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gn0s1s:
Yeah there were several articles all around the same date citing this... But the actual quote from the Huawei official translated to "The company has confirmed that the 8 series will make its way to the United States as well, pricing and availability will be confirmed at a later date".. The honor 8 did get released so that statement was true. There was no quote specifically confirming the note 8... I was following this closely at the time.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gn0s1s:
Here is a solid synopsis at the bottom of the state of huawei in north america near the end of the article. Basically, mismanaged.

Hi all just received this phone yesterday. Display is gorgeous. It's smooth, fast and battery life looks good.

It was easy to install play store.

I have google contacts, google messenger and a marshmallow dialer all installed. However I can't get google contacts to appear in google or stock messenger or dialer apps. Gmail is fine and contacts appear there so they are being downloaded. I've played with permissions and restarted after each time.

If I can get the my google contacts installed it should be a great phone. Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers Russ
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ruscook:
Further to the above: I have Contacts 1.5.16, Google Contacts Sync 6.0.1 both have full permissions via the "Trust this App setting".

Link to pics of permissions for each app and what's available in Contacts app: https://goo.gl/photos/uLySrYUzKWzHTwFK6

You can see there's nothing but the SIMs contact info available. Nothing from Google Inbox.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ruscook:
Success!!! Got it working following this instruction, and rebooted.

http://xdaforums.com/honor-6/help/sync-google-contacts-calendar-t3042525/page2

First of all I uninstalled the Google Play editions I'd downloaded directly from the play store. Then installed these Huawei store versions. Rebooted and voila': https://goo.gl/photos/2iP6xbA8hBSyNcJ56

My full contacts are available in the standard phone dialler and the Huawei one, the Huawei contact list and the google play contact app.

Now to get Outlook working as well, oh and to finally test the camera against the 6P to see if the it's good enough :)
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Daver69:
I couldn't get google contacts to sync at all so used InTouchApp, which worked a treat.

I am loving the camera in lighted conditions., but am having big problems with the flash. Everything gets washed out or has a white shadow across half of the photo.

Let me know if yours does the same!!

Cheers
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ruscook:
Here's 3 pics I took tonight. First without flash - others with. https://goo.gl/photos/SKfVSnAKmkhuaLSv8

I think they're ok, not sure if there as sharp as the images from my Nexus 6P. Probably need to test them next to each other.

Anyone having a problem installing large apps like games. I get most of the way through the install then google play just shuts down without any dialogue or warnings!!! Tried with about 5 or 6 large games e.g. Galaxy on fire 2. Just won't install? Hardware great, Software seems a bit crappy. Can't wait for some ROMS to start appearing.

Also Anyone else having to constantly give permissions to greenify and Nova launcher (Would imagine any launcher) everytime you restart your handset? Getting a little bit annoying! Does anyone know how to stop this?

[MENTION=1255102]letschky[/MENTION], I found reason for fail telegram move to system app: that was lack of space... I already moved viber and facebook messinger...

I than deleted few apps more, yellow pages, livewallpapper, even huawei launcher, becouse I use nova. Made place for telegram, but wanted hangouts also! I inspected all apps and saw all are tiny except google web view, ot is baout 100MB. I uninstalled it, using chrome or samssung internet as browser.

So, boss, I suggest you, for next rom yours to move web view on data apps(if possible). To make about 100MB precious space on system more...

I think the new thing in b358 is asking you to unlock your phone using password instead of fingerprint every 3 days

A couple of minutes ago I put my finger on the fingerprint sensor and it said for added security password required every 3 days

Didn't notice that before this update
