-Where can I get B027 and B029 to downgrade and/or upgrade? I am considering TWRP/root and apparently B029 doesn't work with it.

-How do you do a software upgrade/downgrade manually with the .zip?

-Where can I obtain the stock recovery.img?

Smart Wake Up/Sleep Function

Hello forum

I bought this phone at Christmas for my wife and what a magnificent device it has turned out to be. Beautifully made with a wonderful big screen. I have largely left it as is just removed/disabled any apps not required

The one thing I have not got working is the Smart Wake Up/Sleep Function. I bought the plain solid cover with magnetic clasp (3rd party product) not the one with mesh holes. In the settings there is a section which refers to the cover but no matter which option I turn on it doesn't work with the flip case

Has anyone here had any joy with this?

With other phones I have used proximity apps to provide this kind of feature but would prefer to use a built in function if at all possible as it should be less draining on the battery

Hi all,

I updated B029 afte I go bach to mStockROM B027 (is automaticly If you install any "Stock-recovery from this pages here). Unlock bootloader is allready but root is not more in.

Now how I can install the UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.79-20161211114519.zip file without change to a TWRP recovery? (I will my possibility to update future OTA's not lose)

Or an other way: who know this SU-zip-file as a .img-file? And what for area (boot, recovery or on) I have to choose by "fastboot flash ...area... file.img" ?

With other words, can I flash a Superuser over adb? How?

If is not possible so I want after change to TWRP (and flash the SUperuser-file) the recovery back to the Huawei-recovery.

Who know the strock-recovery from the OTA B029-version???

Thanks for a positiv replay!

[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nitemare3219:
You just need the stock recovery.img to be able to take an OTA. Flash the stock recovery just like you would for TWRP, and then you can use eRecovery to download the latest version. Problem is, I don't know where people are getting the stock image to remove TWRP for updates... because you can't download or flash the latest updates without stock eRecovery.

Hi,

I cant recognize what do you have found in post #618, what solve my problem ?

This is only for flashing a full B017 ROM without unlock, but I have unlock my phone and I cant see a e-recovery or stock-recovery what I can flash over the TWRP (after rooting my phone with UPDATE_SU..xxx..zip-file).

I need a original recovery-file from B029 that I can flash (with flashify or so) over my TWRP.

My opinion is, the TWRP is guilty that I cant use OTA-updates .

So I will first root my phone and after that I go back to original-Huawei-recovery.

The root is retained afterwards, I hope so...;))

But where can I fiind this image-file?

I hate to flash a full ROM (or more updates, from 017 to 029).

After rooting with TWRP I want go back to the stock-recovery.img. Not more.

Please could you say me where I find this image?

Thanks

PS: other is, I fund a "root.apk" what ist rooting the EDI-AL10. But where?

I copy the Whatapp Folder from data to System/app and give Permissions,after Reboot works fine.No Problems with Notifications.

When you flash Kang Vips B017 Rom,you must go back to Original B017 with dload Method.

Flash Stock Recovery,go Back with UPDATE.APP and then Factory Reset.After this,your Bootloader is locked.

Unlock with your Key,flash Twrp,wipe with Factory Reset in Twrp and flash the Kangvip Rom.I test it and works.

Without go back to original B017 before flash the Kangvip Rom is very laggy.

I got this phone on Friday and it had already B029 installed.

I managed to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and root the phone.

I did a full Apps restore with Titanium Backup.

The only thing missing were some Google Apps.

When I installed Play Store from HiApp it did install but there were no Google Contacts Sync and Calendar Sync installed and they are not available in the Play Store.

Stupidly I flashed a Dynamic GApps with TWRP but this resulted in a phone with no home screen. My only choice was to go back to B027, upgrade to B029, install TWRP and start all over again.

But strangely I cannot get Play Store working anymore. I can install it but it won't start up?

So my question is what is the best way to install the Google Apps and Syncs to this phone after I do a second restore to B027/B029 and start the whole process again?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] cashif:
HiApp is the right source suggested by most of the experts in here but I used Google apps Installer from MIUI (Xiaomi) and everything is working/syncing as it should.

Instead of reflashing, just factory reset your mobile; install Google Installer apk and that app installs the whole framework with play/contacts/calendar etc.

Ps: I installed from Xiaomi official source (en.miui.com) but cant find right now but you can google if you do not trust the third-party site.

Just an observation.

Last week I also got a Google Pixel C 32GB tablet and I have noticed that the Pixel C is much much faster when restoring a Titanium Backup from its internal memory than the Note 8 is when restoring from a 256GB Micro SD Card.

It is basically the same number of Apps and a rough estimate is that the Note 8 is more than 10 times slower than the Pixel C.

Is this a case of better memory management in the Pixel?

Other than that the Note 8 does not really feel sluggish.
