Was thinking to make the same thread! Just a clean thread about the Official beta. Hope soon someone will post pictures/videos with it. I was kinda scared to join the beta due to lack of SD card and a little knowledge about manual flashing if something gets wrong. :)

I have some questions for people who will try the official beta:

1. Does Notes app sync now with Google account.

2. Please post some screenshots on the emojis/keyboard with official Huawei Keyboard and do you see some big changes there.

3. New camera mods? Improvements when shooting video?

4. Some new Stock apps from Huawei (like finally Reminder app...)?

5. Battery time (of course after couple day of use).

6. Can you finally turn off the Haptic Feedback? It's so annoying right now. I don't understand why they removed to option to turn it off at all.

7. Some new themes in the store?

8. Can we add now notification badge to all apps?

:)

I just got it in Bulgaria after applying in the local test. Will share more info later :)
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lennyuk:
FYI - I decided to do a full test of this firmware and factory reset - everything seems fine except the beta app is no longer accessible. It is installed, but just has no way to launch it - which means you cannot install the apk manually as it already exists.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Marsou77:
****OT****

This option is still there in B182. It's under sound settings.

I know about this. My problem is, when I pick up a call my phone vibrates, when I like a Photo with Pop up windows on Instagram, phone vibrates.. and in some other occasion... :)
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] aceclift:
i've noticed this as well, hopefully we get another build that fixes that and the flip case steps counter issue as well. bit annoying as we have no way of reporting to Huawei easily to tell them about the bug.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lennyuk:
I will be trying some things tonight to see if I can fix it, but without root it might be futile.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] aceclift:
ok cool, let me know if you solve it. and yeah without root will be difficult, maybe hi-suite will show the app and let you uninstall?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] scylla69:
I Just got mine today. This beta doesnt look like a beta . Everything I´ve checked so far works.

It´s really responsive.

Can you repack the apk with a different name/id and manually install it?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lennyuk:
nice idea, but not so simple, we don't have huawei's key to sign it with so the phone would reject it.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Atarii:
True, but you can self-resign? It won't install as system-level app, but may get you access to the bug reporter etc
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MartinDimchev:
Nice. But still using they ugly bobs layout for emojis.. Was hoping for Samsung style.. But it is what it is. :)

Is it 7.0 or 7.1 firmware? Hope for 7.1.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] safariking:
7.0

Guys i did a full wipe after installing this beta, and now huawei beta club app is not working... I cannot install it, or restore from backup. It says that it is already installed, but it is not(or i cannot find it)

Any advices?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] aceclift:
if you read the other posts in this thread you wouldn't have asked the question - this has already been reported and [MENTION=2315688]Lennyuk[/MENTION] is trying to find a solution. He has also stated that full wipes don't work to bring it back either and i have already stated that you can't install the app. this app is already installed but it does not show up to the user and without root there isn't anything we can do
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ch1lko:
1. Syncs only with HiCloud (Huawei ID) but appears to be broken

2. The keyboard is Swype (again) with its own emojis

3. One new plug-in that can be installed - Good food for food pictures. So far this looks like Samsung way to extend the camera

4. There is a new HiGame app for downloading games (looks useless)

7. There are number of themes but i don't use them so cannot comment are they more than before or not

8. Right now this option is available only for Settings, Email and Themes
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] rudnik8:
Sorry, didn't see this post. Anyway, i hope that huawei will patch this

Btw - any way to have a notification icons instead of numbers in notification bar?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MartinDimchev:
Thank you. So not much new. :)
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
I uninstalled Nova due to some crashes I experienced (mainly due to widgets) so I can't check right now.

However I remember in my settings I had the "Device Admin" ticked and most of the time I used power button to lock.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] connecorn:
That described its answer. There would not be a problem using home button to lock the device.

Unless ur using 3rd party apps like "Screen off and lock", Greenify or whatsoever including stuff likes Nova Gesture to lock device.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gwarf92:
The mate 9 just got a new update with the ability to switch back to icons for notifications in the status bar. (But you can still use numbers if you want to).

So I hope they will soon update the beta build.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] connecorn:
Been looking for this...So annoying see the number keeps counting on the notif bar :(

Hi,

I wanted to know if there is in the accessibility settings of emui5 the new feature to force mono sound? As i have deaf to one ear, it's a pretty important feature.

New udpate for France downloading ota L09C432B330
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
Are you updating from beta to this version?

I don't have an update OTA and manual file install fails.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
Did you download the ota from firmware finder or from xda?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] raku01:
I can't update through dload. I'm on 322.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
I used XDA link.

In beta there is not a manual update option as in standard buils so I have to use the turn on with power / volume buttons held.

It starts and gets to 5% before failing and directing to EMUI website address that doesn't work.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
I'm downloading the ota through firmware finder I'll let you know if it works
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
cheers
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
Nope is not working either on the firmware finder, the strange thing is the download was of 500 mb and the app unzipped everything and in the dload folder it is 129 mb.

Stopped at 5%
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
Did you get the same message / website address?

Looks like it might be a clash due to having beta installed vs standard software.

Do we know if the update is the same as the beta or adds anything?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
Yes i had the same message about the website address, maybe we should wait the official one.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
Strange huh that just 1 beta release before mass release to public.

I expected a few beta releases for feedback and bug fixing.

Maybe it was 99% done and they just wanted some feedback before release to see if anything showstopping occurred.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
Yeah really strange, they should do like Samsung is doing, in every beta they are adding something new.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Braggus:
Finaly the beta program is available in the Netherlands

Only have to wait for it to download and install.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MartinDimchev:
Exactly! The way they are treating the beta is so stupid if they don't release another one... While they will fix the reported bugs/problem. Pretty sure while they fix the reported, some other bugs and problems will be created... And as the other guy said. Samsung is releasing NEW stuff that are actually useful... This update on Huawei Nougat looks like a joke.. Split screen that most people won't use. App drawer (what an innovation here...) Ugly dark quick toggles with ugly dark blue color (this is the most disgusting part of the whole update)... Everything else is the same.. I am disappointed from Huawei. Put fingerprint on the back and don't include Double tap to wake up or even wave to wake up / raise... What a dumb move. Should have bought S7... But next time I won't even look what Huawei is offering when I am choosing a new phone... Lesson learned. :)
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ccl2003:
I used to be an S7 user and it is the worst Samsung phone I have ever owned. Touchiwiz lags, constant freezing and app crashing made me dump it for the P9. EMUI is so much more fluid and reliable. No regrets here that I disposed of the S7 because its camera is not that great either most of the shots I took with it had problems unlike the previous Samsung phones I have used before it (S2. S3, Note 2 S4, Note 4, S6, Note 5). Imho, the camera is overrated and while it focuses real fast and the F1.7 aperture is a beast in low light photography, its not as reliable as my current P9 on day-to-day shots.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
Personally I like the dark blue notification zone and love the phone overall.

I don't think I will ever use the 2 apps on screen feature, right now I can't figure out any case that makes it worthwhile.

I have given up in the quest of the perfect phone and decided it is impossible to get everything I want on one device so for now P9 is good for me...I miss double tap from my Lumia's but more for me is that I cannot get a dedicated camera button on Android.

Anyway I hope we see some updates to our devices running beta soon, if we are stuck behind non beta users it would be a bad move.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gwarf92:
Got a update today (France).

Icons for notification in the status bar are back \o/
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
Are you in the beta?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lennyuk:
B330 should be pushed out to us beta people soon, it will likely hit some countries before others so don't panic and don't try to install it manually, just wait.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Marsou77:
Icons in the notification bar are back, it's beautiful !!!!

There is some change about the notifcation shade with rounded card

[MENTION=7899993]morozshaun[/MENTION] You have to install Beta club app. And join project if available.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
You have to use the new beta app the old one has a problem I'll link you the new one to download.

Here is the app

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bx110Fzgeq33bzZjZk95Y1lVMWs
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I already tried that. Installed the Beta app, tried logging it, but when I try logging in, it gives me an error message: ''Login failed.''. Is it possible to get through that error or somehow make this work?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] raku01:
You have to log. with huawei id.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] randymess:
I had that problem too, and that occurs because the account that you're using is not from your country (you have selected a different country the moment you created it). In my case, I had to create a new Huawei ID selecting my country (Spain) and voila!
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Ok, sounds like it could work. But could I later revert to my original Huawei ID account? Also, how do I log out from my current Huawei ID to create a new one, and do you have the APK file of the Beta app? Thank you :)
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] raku01:

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
If you go to official download site they don't even list the P9, if you search for it then device is not found.

http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/hwdownload/download

Oh I found it under this site...

http://consumer.huawei.com/de/support/mobile-phones/p9_de-sup.htm#downloads

However it only has B182 which I had before beta, the rollback package which has a different device number so I don't want to use and the beta app.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
It randomly pop up sometimes, is kind of Annoying not having it on the lock screen, even though settings i could not find nothing, and even Spotify widgets doesn't work.

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] dodgedroid:

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] TugaSoulHunter:
Me too, and one thing that I want to report it's on camera.

if you record a video at 1080p 60fps, the image while recording lags a loooooot, but the video itself is recorded at 60fps.

Edit: Anyone having the same problem???
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lennyuk:
Those having trouble with the beta app, pull that projects screen down to force it to reload, it should then appear, failing that reboot the phone, failing that "logout" of the beta app and log back in.

Try them in that order as you don't want to logout if you then have trouble logging back in.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] AdiHotdog:
Nothing in the UK yet!

Tried to update the beta app to 2.1.12 but it can't. It says "App not installed.

The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name." So i uninstalled the older one (2.1.11?) and tried installing the new one again but still the same thing "App not installed.

The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name." . So now i don't have beta club app at all. All of this because my projects been empty a while, dunno where my projects lost because it worked fine at the start and got the beta but still sitting on version B322.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lennyuk:
enable their floating dock thing then?

Does anyone have other launchers working correctly on latest build?

Still getting crashes with Nova so I tried Action launcher which also crashes.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
I just tried nova launcher, no crashes for me.

Are you on b322 o b330?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
I'm on B330 but I had the same issue on B322.

Originally having weather widget enabled stopped Nova from even launching...now without weather widget it launches but either crashes immediately or at random times.

Do you have many widgets enabled?

I am wondering if my other widgets are also causing issues....I have PowerAmp, Outlook Agenda and Media Guide.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Matteoiaccarino:
I'm on b322 but i don't have widgets in use, I'll try to download your same apps and see if it crashes
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaunydub:
Cheers, it must be the widgets I guess if it happens on every launcher I try.

I raised bug report already on build b322 so will raise again for b330.

Interesting to see if anyone has any widgets working.

Guys-

Does anyone know if the 200 slots for the Beta program has been filled yet? I am on the C432B182 build and downloaded the beta apk. Even though I am logged in with my Huawei ID under settings, when I hit accept terms on the beta app, I keep on getting the Login failed error and can't go anywhere from there basically. I've contacted the Huawei UK team through their email they posted on Modaco but I feel like they don't have a clue what they are doing. Their first response was asking me my IMEI and then their 2nd response was this. I thought this program was open to all the Open Market Unlocked EVA-L09 devices. Am I missing something?

Again, my apologies for posting this here but figured you guys are all in the program and you'd know the best answer to this.

Thanks

Dear Customer,

Thank you for contacting the Huawei Customer Care Team.

Also, please be advised that the Beta project sign up and steps to follow are also different for European devices and non European devices.
