[Mate 8 General] p51d007:
No problems with mine...that I know of...

I'm 100% stock at this time, had it for about 3 months

L29C185B180

With all the headaches of upgrading at this point, I'll just stick it out a while on the current

build...I don't use the default launcher, but use Nova Prime.
[Mate 8 General] Boosik:
If you have chinese version (AL10, DL00 etc), debrand to 432 and use build 560. Doze works, background apps works, battery life is pretty great and most importantly notification pulldown and notification icons are good.
[Mate 8 General] James_Watson:
My Mate 8 has been working fine till now.
[Mate 8 General] dante-fu:
B152. Stopped reading there. You won't put any effort in using the inbuilt updater and yet you come here to complain?

B180 and higher has all your problems solved and it's available to all handset versions.
[XDA Assist] khalilkt:
Hy everyone,

Here I have a Chinese tablet that does not start a long time,

I try several times to format it but it remains blocked to the Android logo

Behind the tablet, it is written "X Phoenix", I do not know if it's his real name or not, but I can not find a rom to install

thank you in advance
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] mongoload:
Help! I have 2 Mi Max Hydrogen devices.

Device 1: Mine running Lineage OS

Device 2: My wife's running with MIUI Global 7.3.11.0 which is having problem. Just stock when purchased.

Device 2 cant connect to any PC! I have tried different cables but still not working. device 1 can connect. The Device 2 can use OTG flash drives perfectly, i can access the files and copy paste so the micro USB port seems OK right?

I have tried the EDL method but computers(i have several) doesn't seem to respond to this device, it seems nothing is being plugged.

I don't want to make this post too long, so my question is, is my wife's Mi Max USB port have hardware problem? Is there a way to flash ROM or even just root for this device without connecting to PC?

Btw, warranty no more :(
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] mongoload:
Anyone? Is my Mi Max have hardware problem?

I have tried to update the OS using the default MIUI updater but it always fails, (cannot verify rom), have tried different ROMs using this method but still same error.

If you will convince me that my device have hardware problem, then i will have peace of mind! Knowing that I lost the only option to flash ROMS.

Otherwise, hope someone could point me to some solution as i would like to update/change the ROM of this device.

Thank you in advance for your kind assistance!
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] valerio.tosti:
Have you tried an usb adapter to transfer files?
[Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers] Zola III:
I don't think it's a hardware problem as OTG uses all usual +one ground wire on USB so if it's working all is. It's probably bad modified ROM by resellers & a ancient one.

Did you try to cut the man In the middle & update directly from the phone? Like this:

http://en.miui.com/a-232.html

It's basically a side load from a internal SD card method.

Naturaly you can download it directly to the phone and put into according required directory (no need for a PC at all). It's pretty much simple as it can get. Please be certain that you Download PROPER version of ROM for your device exact model!

http://en.miui.com/download-302.html

I recommend at least for now that you stick to the global stable ROM.

I hope that it works out like this for you & do me a favour & leave absolutely bad review to that reseller on Amazon.

Best regards.

Edit:

Actuality to make a process even more easy you can from Updater app chose download update option that should automatically start download of appropriate latest ROM versions (stable global) for a device & directly to the appropriate folder.

Can I install hardware on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 T700 to make it compatible with LTE 4G?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Highly doubtful unless you can source the correct parts, have the equipment and ability to deal with surface mount devices and have the full schematic then somehow force an update to the bootloader so it's compatible with the new hardware.

Alternative 1 - Use a 3g dongle, mifi, or tether to mobile device.

Alternative 2 - sell yours buy a T705.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tedted1969:
They don't manufacture Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 T705 anymore that is the trouble.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Doesn't need to be new does it? You could upgrade to Tab S2.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperlativeB:
so I just did a swap from regular 700 wifi to a 707a , it had a busted screen but everything went perfect. freaking ATT even gave me the unlock code and sent it to me in like 4 minutes! Then.....tmobile wants to be super hella lame and tell me it wont work without a mobile things plan or some hot garbage like that EVEN THOUGH it fully is 100 capable and is even connected , I have an old grandfathered inplan and I do get it and would "understand" if it wernt for so many many other things I use on that sim . But ya.. look for 705 as I can't find any type of mods for this thing. I may try and root with Kingo , switch it to super SU make my backups of course and maybe possibly play with fire and safestrap but ya go with a 705 OR actually don't buy any find a different tablet like I may go with a Surface LTE even though its so inferior spec wise it would still do way way more and finally get me use of the SIM......maybe......it better......hmmmm. better check hah.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Badger51:
Perhaps my Nexus is showing its age. . Recently, the tablet crashed after rebooting and the screen went blank and would not respond.

I rebooted but the Nexus is stuck in a boot loop, showing only the Google logo.

When I boot into recovery, my TWRP recovery loads, but does not respond to the screen touches, at all.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doughmay:
Ok if you can boot into fastboot than this is good. What you need to do is re flash your twrp recovery if you have backups you will most likely lose them, at this point I have no other suggestions this happened to me and by reflashing twrp and a new compatible rom with gapps should be fine.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackout_pt:
I had a similar problem, but in my case the flex cable that connects to the screen was partly loose. You'll have to open the tablet and check it out. I suggest that before any re-flashing.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jc83419:
Finally see something new on FF

Huawei signed B158. Guys, now it is time to free upgrade :)

Taiwan is doing final upgrade b158 for all Taiwan devices. so try it: create a new Hicare account with Taiwan is the region!!
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] hackdrag0n:
How you find this out?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] 619619:

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
Yes, it was put on the Huawei server within the last 24 hours.

It's the same as the Russian C10B156 update.

It's still not possible to install, but will be soon.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Abdo2:
How about middle east C185B138 any idea when will be the new uodate?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
It's now possible to install it. I'll be rebranding and checking it out tonight.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] gm007:
Seems c185b158 is out too
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
Yes, but it's not on Huawei's servers yet, and online update/OTA update is not out. Maybe this week. Strangely, the European is yet to be seen, even though European was first for other updates.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] gm007:
Maybe they are hiding the updates on different servers?

Seems they are going to change updates so c636 be the first like they use to be on mate8.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
If it was on any server, I would know about it. It's not online yet.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] gm007:
It's available now
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
Indeed it is. OTA only so far. Probably nice things tomorrow then :)

Edit: Full version also up. I have some work to do now :P
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] hands0m3:
I have firmware finder how do I install once downloaded I tried I get install fail.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
It can't be installed with firmware finder unless Huawei approved the update for your device. You can install it with tools which cost money, or wait and see if Huawei will make it available to your device.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lodix:
You have to active "activation via system update" in the settings of the app and follow instructions.

What do i put under proxy sever server: localhost? If my host name how do i get ( my question seems stupid) :eek:
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lodix:
Yes, just insert what the app says and it works. The only thing is that when you update with this method it seems the version number on the systems doesn't change ( but the rest does ).
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] -Sniper-:
İs there any variant of this rom for C432B... (Europe devices)?

It's not working for me either and mine was a c636 out of the box. All I know is that it will be my turn sooner or later so I'm just (im)patiently waiting. I'm confident that the rollout will be done within the next few days, maybe within a week at worst.

Got MHA-L29C636B158

I've had C432 originally (I've rebranded for 2 weeks ago)

I have root, decrypted /data, TWRP, both russian sims.

These things do not block update !

I just checked updates and it appeared.

So, if Huawei wants to roll on updates - it will do it.

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] baddison:
What was the purpose of rebranding? Were you missing some type of functionality on the C432? I have L29C185, and I'm considering rebranding,but I'm not missing any functionality and everything's working fine. So what is the purpose of rebranding ?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ekerbuddyeker:
i tried a non US SIM in my US C567 and it didn't update. I guess Huawei thinks Algeria is more important to update than the US.

Actually, I don't see why not!
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jc83419:
The only reason to rebrand is from chinese al00 to others ; or reverse. Other versions are almost same.

I got al 00 6/128 model, to have better google to use have to rebrand. Only c636 has offline pack for free re brand :good:
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] 5[Strogino]:
First, I have had very strange power consumption on c432: 10-15% when phone is slipping. I did some factory resets, but it did not help. I updated to b138 - did not help. And I decided flash full Rom. But there is no offline rom for c432, only online.

Additionally, I want try method to restore phone and have ability to restore if I will do something crazy with phone.

I softbricked phone 5 or 6 times, flashed vendor, cust, system, modified build.prop and local.prop, flashed different boots and etc...

I set Hicare account location to Taiwan Region and check for update within Hicare app, but B138 still latest version.

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] pac-tafary:
i create a hicare acount whit taiwan region so now i have to wait or doing something else
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] kpcheang2:
It's dependent on which SIM country, not Huawei account.

For example my Huawei account is Singapore. Physically I'm in Singapore.

But I used my Malaysia SIM to get the update. Some users of Taiwan SIM also got it and certain other countries SIM

Singapore is always very late
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] pac-tafary:
so thats means i have to wait in to this update come to the us????
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] kpcheang2:
Not sure about US sim.

The B158 update was released actually mid Jan but only Huawei knows the rollout schedule for different countries SIM.

I waited almost 3 weeks and luckily I had a Msia sim cause Singapore sim still no update yet

Updated with a simple "download full package" option. Dont notice and material changes. Camera thats 10x zoom is not really that great. Picture quality deteriorates the minute you zoom in anyways as long as its digital zoom.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CandyAndy:
Its quite interesting how Europe comes weeks later than other markets. We just two weeks ago got 139 here while I think this came around Christmas for the rest of the markets.

I am starting to think that my Daydream VR which I bought after Huawei announced it will be compatible won't have any use this year yet..
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nikorasu:
I thought so too until I test it myself.

https://xdaforums.com/mate-9/how-to/mate-9-camera-test-t3551052

If you are unable to physically move nearer to take a pic, a digital zoom is better than cropping from 20mp.

In my lastest test, I used 10x zoom with ISO50 and it looked pretty decent.

Notiice slow and touch glitches

After the new update, i notice my phone works slower and some touch glitches introduced, especially when using keyboard. It either miss the keys or swiped it self when my fingers type fast (it was normal before update when i do it this way). And when sliding web browsers, it flickers. Anyone experience this too? :/

Add on: phone works snappier, fingerprint sensor takes more time to wake the phone. I didnt root or do any modification, just came here to seek for help D:

Not much difference in battery life imo, any improvement is only small. The lockscreen seems to be even more broken now though. Was playing music through power amp on my way to work last week using the small lockscreen widget to change tracks. Update arrived while I was at work then on the way home noticed the lockscreen widget wasn't available anymore. Checked all settings, created cache etc and still no dice. The stock player still works fine though.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fred98TJ:
Just updated yesterday to B158 (Philippines) .

Too soon to tell about battery life changes, though it's certainly not worse.

10X camera zoom is actually not too bad. I tried a couple of shots at ISO 50 and they are surprisingly good.

I usually don't notice much difference with updates unless some big change, like UI changes, etc., however the phone is certainly snappier now (and I had no complaints about speed before the update). Screen changes are virtually instant now.

I has updated to the B158 two days before :

-Better battery power

-Effects opens windows its smoother (Without cartoon animation)

-Light more evenly screen applications >>> But still slightly lower when running applications such as: Call, Phonebook, Messages
