Will unlocking the bootloader and installing custom ROM void warranty?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] siggey:
I'm also waiting the phone, probably tomorrow, and looking for a rooting method. Probably a simple SuperSU flash from twrp must work, we need to try...

Didn't see any words on NFC and BDS GPS system. Aren't they available on the US model or I have missed something?

---------- Post added at 10:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 PM ----------

Another question is the Dual Camera system: how different is the Honor 6X cameras from the Honor 8 cameras? I have noticed that the black-white sensor on Honor 6x is degraded from 12MP to 2MP, but I don't have a good feeling if this will make the photo taken blur or significantly worse than the Honor 8? Any photo samples would be appreciated! Thanks.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] CronaMell:
This phone don't come with NFC unfortunately
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] jerryhou85:
Of course, when you get the unlock code from HUAWEI, you will be warned by the site and you have to agree the terms before you get the code.

---------- Post added at 12:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:37 PM ----------

unlock, flash twrp and supersu zip, then you are fine.

Please be reminded that unlock will void your warranty.

Dual camera is just awesome.

FP is ultra fast. I have tested it many times and seems its way faster than another currently...Huawei claims this as 0.3 second but I tested between 0.18 to .23 seconds...thats hell faster.

Does this phone have gyro ? And what about gaming experience with Mali T830MP2 ? Thanks

No gyro.

Gaming is good on this..no lag no frame drop on asphalt 8, temple run, subway surfer. I didnt try any other game. Using 3GB variant.

Yes that's what I thought. It may not work this way. Do you have the stock recovery, try flashiythat and then dload method
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sohail65:
No i dont have stock recovery
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
As said , udont stock recovery to install update.app .

Just put update.app in sdcard/dload . Use the 3 button trigger and then ,their u go.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sohail65:
That method i used i failed.. I used almost every method [emoji26].. Then i talked to honor care they told me actually there is no such package to downgrade available online for Indian variant .. If i want to downgrade i need to visit service center.. Then i realize the package i downloaded is just simple frimware.. That is Not for downgrading [emoji24]
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
Yup that's what I said that downgrade package is not available yet for Indian variant.

It's there for US L24 and EU L21 models only.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sohail65:
Yeah.. But y i cant flash it directly? Is it possible through any tool?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
Nope. If u are on nougat and want to go to mm, you need rollback file.

Else you can go for debranding with backup backup backup.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sohail65:
Okay thanks i got it
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
Hello I'm new to this so please excuse mistakes.

Anyways...a couple of days ago I bought a flip case from a brand called "betterfon" (one with a glass screen on the upper half). It arrived today and I put it on immediately but I noticed that the "window-feature" doesn't seem to be working. The phone does not react to the case at all even though I made sure that every option in the settings regarding a flip case is turned on. My friend has a Huawei p9 with a similar flip case (but from Huawei) so I've tried laying the screen-part of his case onto my screen and again my phone did not react whatsoever. My question now is if it's just the case that's not working for some reason (maybe a missing magnet or something like that?) or if it's actually my phone (maybe emui5?)

My phone is the European version BLN-L21 with 32GB of storage, 3GB of ram and NFC (if that's even important). I'm thankful for every answer! :fingers-crossed:
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
You need a proper cover for the 6x from huawei, other cases (or other huawei phone cases for different device won't work)

Not proper but the one only made for that device

[HELP] "Forgot password" option not available on lock screen after reboot

Okay so I got this Honor 6x running on Nougat BLN-L22 (Indian version) and I forgot my PIN. Now I looked up on youtube and found a few videos where you can recover/reset your password using google account circumventing the hard reset option.

But it turns out that my lock screen doesn't have any such option.

Can someone please help? Is this bug or something?

PS: I want to avoid hard reset if possible
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] adriansticoid:
How many times did you try to input a wrong pin?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] KaranKappa:
Enough times to lock it for an hour.

Edit: I just returned from Honor service center and the official word is that "Forgot password" is not available on Noughat. (WTF?)

Is this universal for all Noughat phones or did Huawei just noped?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] adriansticoid:
I stopped and thought of it for a minute. My little sister likes to troll me and spam my pattern lock. I never saw it where you'll input your email to unlock it. Last time I saw it was in Gingerbread. If you had TWRP installed, we can recover it.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
May be he can delete all or do factory reset to pass this or data clear in twrp..:eek:
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] adriansticoid:
He wants to avoid reset as much as possible. I'm looking for another way.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
ohh yes, just now read the PS...BTW I think he can delete a file in TWRP to regain it but if he has not unlocked bootloader it will be difficult to get as unlocking will reset all

[MENTION=8437781]KaranKappa[/MENTION], please take a look at THIS thread.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
Hello.

I've noticed that the emui5 that I have on my Honor 6x differs from the emui5 that's on the Huawei p9 for example. One thing that I've noticed is that, when you pull down the notification bar on the p9 the background gets blurred out. On my 6x it just simply gets darker and fully black if I extend the notification bar further. My question is if it's a Honor-Huawei thing (they decided to differentiate the UI a bit?) Or if there's any other reason for this.

Thanks in advance!:o
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
That could be due to theme. Originally it shoukd be dark but if you use any theme, it may get various effects.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
Hey thanks for your answer first of all. I always use the default theme and I think you misunderstood me anyways haha I'll try to add some pictures to clarify what I meant:laugh:
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
I completely got your query mate. I said, if you are using default theme or the in available in theme store, it is same as you posted...a black one or the dark background.

But if you use any custom theme available on xda or Huawei theme(external themes) you will get such effects you described in your earlier post or may be p9 comes with that kind of theme mechanism you said as if they make all theming same, there wont be differenc in UI, right :)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
Okay thank you and sorry for misunderstanding! I'm just very confused as to why two Honor phones (8 and 6x) are having a different "theming engine" ( don't know what to call it ). My only explanation was that the Honor 8 was a flagship and the Honor 6x was just a mid-range and thus the 6x had gotten a less "beautiful" UI. I don't know if I'm right with that but why should they do this otherwise?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Thordelan:
Hello,

I removed all widgets from my home screen and now I'm trying to add new widgets (I'm on EMUI 5 btw), I long press on somewhere blank on the home screen but it doesn't do anything though I was pretty sure it's the way to add new widgets, I guess I'm wrong...So how are you supposed to do ?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
Yes that's the correct way.

Are you in stock launcher or installed any other pixels or other launcher?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Thordelan:
Thanks for your answer.

I use stock launcher and I managed to make it work again right after I posted here so it's ok, still it feels like a bug.

I reproduced it many times, each time I remove all widgets from the home screen, I can't add widgets anymore unless I switch on another app (WhatsApp for instance), then I go back on the homescreen and the stock launcher kind of refreshes/blinks, then I can add widgets again, wierd.

Hello, i've search on internet but i can't find a real answer. If i unblock my bootloader and i root my phone, can i still have update ? / can i unroot and reblock the bootloader to have updates ?

(Sorry for my approximate english level)

Yes you will get updates. I was getting on H5X.

I am rooted and with unlocked bootloader. I will confirm as soon as i get any new update. Or you can unroot and then relock the bootloader.

Switch off your phone.

Connect usb to your phone. Dont connect the other end to pc.

Press vol down button and now connect to pc with vol down pressed. Phone should go to bootloader

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] SRI HARI RAJAN:
i need to know that "can we boot in fastboot mode if battery is dead?"

bcoz this is my current scenario:

my phone is dead and if i connect to power it automatically gets power and get stuck in bootloader warning screen and if i try to fastboot using usb method(hold vol- and insert usb) nothing happens it just shows honor logo for a second and again freezes in bootloader warning screen.also when the phone is completely turned off it doesnt respond to any combinations (like vol- and power or vol+ and power or vol+,-and power) but shows a red current symbol on screen with red led flashing and turns off.

somebody pls help me i dono in what situation i am right now...........any help appreciated :)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
You can i think as connecting usb will start charging your phone right away
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] SRI HARI RAJAN:
no its not charging if i connect phone by any means it boots itself and gets stuck in bootloader unlock warning screen
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] adriansticoid:
That's bad man. Since it doesn't respond to hardware buttons. You might wanna consider the service center.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Lord. Tech:
Hello 6x community! Im new here (hopefully that wont be the case for long :D), just got a 6x today! i apologize for the straight forward questions but i have exams coming up and really short time! i'd highly appreciate u guys helping me out, even if only by helping me narrow my tabs to under 5 lol.

I have like 20 different tabs open right now trying to figure this device out. i was gonna open a new thread to ask for help but i figured posting here is just as good :)

My device is BLN-L21 and im on Marshmellow still! I just wanna get twrp, flash a custom rom(nougat or oreo if available), i guess il have to look through the roms to see how each is, but i'd like to know what most of u guys are using these days? i do want options etc and it'd be nice if huawei features are not lost, but i would hate a slow phone, any recommendations?

And what do i need to do to get root on this device? What is this bootloader unlock code i keep reading about?

Also a few twrp questions, my previous device did not have SD card so twrp had option called ''internal storage'' which i never wiped so all my data was safe. Is that the case in this phone too? or does it wipe everything except the manual SD card i put in?

i literally just turned my phone on an hour ago so im really new to the phone.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
I'll help as good as I can but I don't know much myself. The custom ROMs that are being developed for this phone are still in early stages and therefore have some bugs. They are pretty fluid but I'd still wait a little bit with flashing. One feature that might go "missing" is the "bokeh-effect" (I think that's how you spell it) as the custom ROMs do not support that feature yet. My uneducated tip would be to just wait a little more and to leave the phone as is right now. Do update it to nougat for beginnings maybe you'll be satisfied with what Emui 5 has to offer. Read through the different sections and try out some themes to make the time pass faster hahaha.;)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Lord. Tech:
Lol thanks for the tip! u know what, with my exams coming up and u giving me this advice, i think im just going to actually do that! It might even help me find out these huawei features that are so new to me, im actually impressed, huawei is doing a good job with features! it would be great if u can tell me what emui5 is, a link for where i can get this file/zip would really help. im still looking for bootloader unlock haha, i think i need that to install twrp n get root, right?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
Emui5 is the new ui-version. The nougat update. Just check your phone for updates:)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Lord. Tech:
I dont have any updates :( my full version is BLN-L21C185B140, i also didnt find this (140) version in other threads, i got this phone from middle east. is there any other way to get it manually and flash it?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Amphibius2:
Maybe try firmware-finder
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Lord. Tech:
Thanks for the advice! ok so i downloaded it, but im really confused. im using Firmware finder Rewrite 3.08.16.1

on ''main page'' in 'range settings' i input my 'Build number' starting digits which are available in the select model menu, (BLN-L21C185) is that correct place?

Then below in 'manage searches' i get 3 files. What do i do from there? :/
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
You can manually download all those 3 files and then use the dload method to update or else can directly do it as updater with proxy. Quick Dload guide is in my signature if you are not aware.

Let us know in case you need help
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Lord. Tech:
Lol, yes i missed that in ur signatur, thanks alot! i will try that method, finally something that i can understand! all these variants and firmwares and this that is really confusing, i wish i knew before i decided to upgrade my phone :laugh: but this Dload method i think i can manage. thanks!

ok so im downloading the files from this page http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/?firmware_model=BLN-L21C185&firmware_page=0

but i cant figure out which one i should, i am on B140 right now, i want emui 5. can i download the latest Full OTA MF which is B371 in the list, directly? or do i first need to update my phone to some base firmware and then flash the latest nougat?

and just curious, if i have the model number for which it is showing all these firmwares, why i didnt get these ''stock'' updates in OTA itself for the same model? how is this possible they are released on internet and not on the actual phones? lol Huawei:laugh: or is this just isolated case and most people with my model got update via OTA?:confused:
