I hope they don't suck like MI with there tiny Mix 2. Just saw Huawei keynote and they released the Mate 10 Pro, but also 6 inch. :( We know more on 5 december :)

I also have the HN8 and Mi Mix, still don't know which one to use daily.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] cashif:
Totally agree. I bought Mix but it was too small, so sold it within 3 days at a loss of $150! Hopefully Note 9 will be 6.8 bezel-less (Still miss my P8max)
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ivanox1972:
I even think to buy max2, although I know it is second class device... 6 inch 18x9 screen is as 5.7, 16x9...not enough

Phone manager is so annoying that it could prevent working some essantial apps for me like whatsapp,so i just freezed it with ice box app,so far phone is doing great,everything works.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] eddie1:
I deleted the whole app

But now I can't change notification settings

When freezing it with ice box can you confirm that phone manager doesn't kill any apps in the background anymore
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] g3turkey:
I am using ice box because i can change notification settings,first defroze phone manager app and change settings and then freeze again.

You can do this for every app and change settings any time.

I tested and i confirm that every app works properly,i did one more thing,from the developer settings i limited the back ground working apps for a long battery life.

If you are unable to resolve your issue, then try to update firmware
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] g3turkey:
My phone is up to date on B356 and rooted.:)
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] letschky:
I do not understand why the Whatsapp notification does not work with you?

For me everything works, whether rooted or not.

If you are rooted,install the App and copy frpm data/app to System/app.

Reboot and all works fine.

If you are not rooted,make a Widget from Whatsapp on the Homescreen and if works.

looking the Pic in Attachment

since they dont want to lauch note 9,let them update note 8 to Oreo now
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] g3turkey:
if they launch Note 9 how could they sell new mate 10? :) Huawei Note series are way better than mate series and others in many perpectives.They are cheap and most effective in daily usage.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
I don't think the note 9 is coming. I saw a new phone in stock today the OPPO R11S Plus 6,43 inch any good? Im looking for something new in black, less bezels and big screen ofcourse :)

https://www.oppo.com/cn/product/r11s/specs.html
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] eddie1:
I say wait for a phone which comes with Android Oreo pre installed so it has project treble support

Although oppo r11s plus have an AMOLED screen ,the honor note 8 have an AMOLED screen with higher resolution and has a better CPU

I think I'm gonna wait for a big AMOLED screen device with project treble enabled so I can install stock Android (this way it won't matter if it comes with a Chinese software or whatever)
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
Well i think i order a oppo r11s plus on Geekbuying. Phone looks nice. First i wanted to try the Mi Max 2 in black, but the oppo r11s plus has indeed AMOLED, 6GB ram, dual camera, less bezels. Yeah the resolution and processor are lower than the note 8, but are you realy going to see that?

[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] eddie1:
Yep the oppo r11s plus is a better choice than mi Max 2

For me Android Oreo is important so I'm just gonna wait for another phone.

Also I really love my honor note 8 :)

[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] letschky:
Ok,

update official to lastest Version B356 via System Update App or Hi Suite.

Unlock Bootloader via Huawei Page or DC Unlocker (4Euro)

Download this TWRP 3.1.1-1

And Download the Rom

After Unlocking Bootloader flash the Twrp.

Boot into TWRP and wipe all in advanced Wipe,System,Data,Dalvik,Cache and Internal Memory,go back and wipe data with "yes"

Is there an error when deleting in the TWRP,Red font so boot into erecovery and there is a Option to format Data Partition and reboot.

Set the phone briefly and reboot again into Twrp and wipe all again,this works 100%

Flash the Rom and reboot.

At the end of the installer of Rome comes in Twrp a red font,

this is just a script error but the error does not matter

Thank you !

[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Garthax:
Hello everyone Long time lurker. I hope everyone is still enjoying the phone.

I was looking for advice and I’m hoping that someone can help. I love this phone. Unfortunately earlier in the year (around May time) I dropped it a couple of times without a case and shattered my screen :(. As the digitizer was working, I tried replacing just the front glass but I failed miserably and pretty much ruined the digitizer as nothing displays anymore.

I needed a phone desperately around that time and couldn’t find a screen and digitizer online and decided to buy a cheaper phone (went with a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4) which I only planned to keep for a few months. The Note 4 is a very good device and quite snappy. I still miss my Honor Note 8 though due to its screen size.

I was shopping around for Xmas presents and one of my parents needs a new phone (they were begging me for the Note 8 but I was having none of it :p). As it’s not being used, I checked and found from Aliexpress, what appears to be is a genuine replacement for the lcd + digitizer for a total of $140.

However, for around that price I can buy a brand new phone for them. My options are again a new Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 or a new LeEco Le Max 2.

What would you do? Replace the screen and take the chance? Or just go with the new device?

Thanks a lot for your time and help with this.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] eddie1:
Well, I think the honor note 8 is getting old

Also there is no software support anymore

I'd say go with something else

If your parents prefer big screen like the note 8 then there is a couple of phones out there with reasonable prices

Xiaomi mi Max 2 is good one and it's cheap also it was released in June 2017 so it's probably gonna get the Oreo update

Though it has LCD screen instead of AMOLED

If you have a good budget you can go with something like the vivo x20 plus, Gionee m7, oppo r11s plus all of wich have AMOLED screen

Good luck ?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ogoobaby:

Power off the Phone and wait 5-10 sec.

then release the buttons.

This works with all Twrp I tried it
