For USA Mate 10 Pro users, this is the email I received from Huawei US support regarding the next US update and if it will include Face Unlock and "OK Google" Unlock (which the US version on the phone can't do yet...). It's interesting that they mention Google will be releasing this update to us. I can't tell if they mean the build will be OTA but actually just stored in the Google Cloud? Otherwise I just think they are grossly misinformed.

Here is the email. Enjoy:

"Dear*Customer,

We widely appreciate your preference and hope you are doing well.

We kindly inform you that this feature will be available in the next update, you will receive it over the*air,*this*update might vary depending the country, continent, location and carriers.

If you own an unlock device, it will take a little more time to get this update but at the end Google will send it.

You can also check on your device whether an update is available:

google will update services at their end too. there is beta already. so guess that is what they meant.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] KevinAce:
That is fixed. It was in beta and the latest Google Play Services update fixes it if you didn't want to download the beta.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Apad121:
Oneplus have not been very good in their history either.

They promised two updates for the Oneplus 2 and they only got one despite them promising for nougat. In the end they just said that they don't have the capacity to do it and refused to comment further. Horrendous to betray all Oneplus 2 customers.

Also they continue to promise 2 major updates for their phones and instead of launching the Oneplus 5t with Oreo which the Mate 10 pro launched with months before... They decided to launch the Oneplus 5t with nougat so when they released oreo they can count that as a major version change so now they only need to update one more version before they can discontinue the Oneplus 5t.

I don't think it's fair to use the current fad of Oneplus to say that they're the "best" when there clearly hasn't been as much research done. I know only because a few friends were going nuts after the Oneplus 2... But that's what the communities are here for to tell each other stuff.

True and a fact but compared to the big ones like Sam and Hua they are beaten by far, so let's wait and wait...
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] KevinAce:
I think my best experience, though I love the design of the Huawei phones so much better, was the original Google Pixel XL. Security patches every month because coming from the source and as far as updates, they promise 2 years worth. Was a great phone. No headaches. But each year we all want the newest tech.

I bought a P20 Pro but returned it. I have to say it didn't excite me at all. I'm not a photog crazed person so it was essentially just like using the Mate 10 Pro. Except for the notch which you could turn off. Obviously better camera but didn't need it.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] RabidWolve:
Agreed. The Mate 10 is my favourite phone next to the Nexus 5 in terms of design.

But it comes down to after sales support. And with the high end mate 10 getting unbelievably bad support where features are being released in conjunction with older phones. Something is not right.

Very smart move. Better to be on older firmware than to have an unusable brick that Huawei possibly won't exchange for free.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Meteordust:
No 142 OTA update yet in the Netherlands for BLA-L29, my phone runs the March 137 security update, if they roll out now the May security update I don't understand the negativity about it when I read some posts, regarding the updates.

My only negative thought about this phones is the auto brightness issue, how simple can it be, you choose auto if you like it, and if you don't you turn it off, but it should NOT still be functioning in several apps and screens when auto brightness is off, very annoying issue, hope that they will ever fix that.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] madphone:

Why full ota? I have problem if I install smaller one?

Mate the 10 pro be with you
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Sveneezy:
Because the FULL OTA will ensure you get all the files needed. It will delete anything you don't need by itself so why risk downloading the smaller one and maybe miss out on certain files?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] johnnyman25:
With full ota my phone files will be untouched? Photos, videos, installed apps etc?

One last question. If ota comes with no ff later it will be the small one eh?

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Sveneezy:

Your phone will remain as is. You're just updating the software/firmware.

I don't understand your second question.

when normal ota comes you can choose to download full 3gb one too. i always do that from old flashig habit. the thing with ff is it doesnt care on witch version you are atm so if you go small size you could possibly brick it. better to play safe

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] alixra:
I rebranded my BLA-L09 to BLA-L29 and on 141 (noloaxloader c432). I see 142 approved in FF. Now when I turn the proxy on or change dns and try system update in phones settings, it says no update found. I used to uprade without any issue via FF prior to rebranding. Do you guys think it could be because of the noloaxloader c432 firmware I installed via funky huawei? Or some other reason? I use private space.. Shall I turn private space off and try again?

Huawei really like to piss off their Mate 10 base don't they. Like they don't want us to consider their phones anymore.

Also Motorola updated their G5S to android 8.1. And it will come with June Security update.

Change settings in face unlock, so that when reconizes your face will show notifications and then you have to swipe with finger to leave lock screen

Yup, I'm on TMo. The VoLTE option is not available by default but there is a way to enable requiring bootloader unlock and root. I just haven't done at since I haven't really missed having VoLTE.

This phone is so gone now .

mmm I doubt so, it seems that huawei is rolling out the P20 camera features to mate 10 and 10pro tomorrow but it will be only a camera app update. No 8.1, it would be a waiste of their time to focus on 8.1 when they are already testing the android P updates with their private staff.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Meteordust:
Question about FF, are that always Beta versions or official releases?, and safe to install regarding if you want to update a next official OTA version that come later.

Or will I always depend on FF to update from that point if I install a version or is it installing like it comes officially from Huawei system update?

Myself now on BLA-29 8.0.0.137(C432) and no official OTA yet when I use system update from settings-system or Hi-suite.

With firmware finder I can update to BLA-L29C432B142 Full OTA 2018-05-07 - 134156.

Or what is the best way to install this, Installation via DNS with the Android app..??, because do not want to fool around with TWRP.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Sveneezy:
You're still able to OTA. Once firmware gets approved you're good 2 go.

Personally I always choose in-app proxy but you could do DNS if that's easier.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Meteordust:
Thanks, used the Android FF DNS method, followed the instructions and indeed it downloaded the 142 version, installed fine, after that I did a factory reset.

Phone runs fine, do not use the face unlock, years ago it was already available on some phones and easy to fool with a picture, not sure if they improved that feature by time.

But still that brightness issue when auto brightness is off.

That brightness thing is intended it's been around for years. They just don't admit it.

I tried to fool face unlock never worked. Used pictures, portrait shots on my iPad pro (big screen) never worked
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Apad121:
Haha yeah... The brightness thing is a mess...

Also is Huawei going to implement a feature so the screen auto lights up brighter when it is dark so that the face unlock feature an still work when it's dark? Oneplus sorted this out a while ago. This means that face unlock would also work well during dark lighting.

It's so sad that the Honor V10 also got features like tracking eyes to check phone orientation when the flagship Huawei doesn't.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] troublecro:
142 coming to Croatian carriers. Generally happy with update frequency.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Meteordust:
Well just Google it and you will see that face unlock is not the most secure way to protect your privacy on your phone.

Was able to do it myself years ago, finger print is just working fine for me.

The brightness mess, I never had that on my Huawei P9, maybe it is me but on auto brightness it is far too dark, so when you switch it off it is really annoying when that is still working on browsers etc.....unbelievable mess, it is my choice if I want to use more battery, not Huawei.

No BT problem here after going from 137 to 142 (C432), did a factory reset after full Ota.

Have you calibrated it?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Meteordust:
Well my problem was that the position that was showed on the map was far away from actual position and was having problems with finding position, "getting position".

Solved that with clear cache of google play services.

But still when I drive it looks like Sygic loose GPS sometimes or not regurarly updates.

Did not have that problem with 137 version.

Calibrate you mean like GPS status & tools, clear A GPS?

Edit, found out my GPS/Compass problem, after the update and full reset it was unable to do a good calibration because of my phone case I have, it has aluminium brackets on top and bottom that was interfering the signals, strength of GPS was also 50 % down because of it, so have other case now and all good.

On the latest alp-l29 135 update has anyone else experienced poor battery life and increasingly slow charge times?.. I'm sitting at 60% charge from ~20% over the last hour+ and it's indicating I have 1.5hrs remaining..

100% stock, stock charger/cable, worked perfectly before the update..

For the battery drain, I'm seeing 1-2 hours less sot over a similar days use. I figured this was due to the update needing a day/cycle to settle, but it's been consistently less. I also attributed some extra battery loss to the Face Unlock feature but even after turning that off I've seen no improvement..
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Apad121:
Hi there

Face unlock slowing down?

I was initially impressed by the speed of face unlock. However I've noticed that if I quickly press power off and back on then the race unlock will be very fast and skip the lockscreen. However if I leave the screen for a like 5 seconds then when I press it to turn on it shows the lockscreen for a second before the recognising face logo pops up. This means that face unlock is kinda slow given the delay every time.

Checking out videos of the Oneplus 5t and honor v10 most of the time, they both directly skip the lockscreen but not on mate 10 pro when left for a few seconds.

I have AOD on but I tried turning it off but still the slow face unlock persists. Anyone else face this? Or is this normal?

Thanks
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] 0alfred0:
Itsnormal.... the phone enters sleep/doze state shortly after locking. For me it is fast enough anyway. I dont care about milliseconds.
