[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
Told ya guys....i dont think a lot of servers are available for US.....:( . This post will last more than i expected.....

The worst part is that the only thing i want is to get rid of the stupid LAG nothing else matters to me.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] DevilWithoutACause:
I personally have 0 lag on nougat, personally I've deleted all of the OEM bloatware and completely deleted the emui launcher swiftkey the default messaging program and etc with the pixel and stock Google equilavents which I guess could maybe possibly help with the performance if the stock ones are heavy
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
I was harassing them on Facebook and they sent me a few generic response mixed in with actual comments lol and they never mentioned months they just said a few days.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] :
Total and utter bull****.

This is a spare phone for me but if this is the way Huawei/Honor operates, I'm still within my Amazon return period. This thing may be going back real soon.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
I wish I could return mine. This whole thing with apps constantly closing. I can't even do basic things like cast to Chromecast because the apps close. Wish I would've known about the sale on the Moto x4 or the Nokia 6.1.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] GaBuzz:
Months!!!!!! Seriously, I really like this phone but I doubt I will buy another if it takes that long to get the update, could this have anything to do with the US governments war against Huawei...
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] :
I called them today and the person I spoke with basically confirmed that it could take "months", but hopefully less to receive the OTA.

Sent mine back to Amazon today for a full refund. Purchased a Nokia 6.1 (2018 version) as my backup phone to my Essential

I was a Honor/Huawei owner for less than a week. If they are going to handle business the way they are doing they will have a lot of unhappy customers on their hands.

Spying bastards.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
If thats true....

Are they taking the revenge on us....that would be devastating:(
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
Maybe they are just told to say that lol. Months is ridiculous.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
Wao next time at least they should say is coming soon or something like that...this thread will become 30/4 update complaints.....
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
Almost day 7 and still no update. I'd like to know why it's not available in firmware finder at least. (a useful verification passing one anyway)
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
I get you

I not certain but i think that they check the imei to see if your are in the open list to take it...anywho right now im just waiting for someone from February+ buyers list to tell if they have received the update...very dissatisfied with this service at least next time they need to tell us that the update will be on june for everyone not the thing they did
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
Yeah I'm pretty screwed lol because I got mine mid April. This imei number thing is a weird way to do this. Are their servers really that crappy? How many people here even really own this phone? I'm thinking about sending it back to Amazon and buying a used pixel off of someone on Craigslist. Risky move and will cost me an extra hundred but it might be worth it.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
At least you can return it but still...

I loved this phone... Is actually my secondary one i got a 5T that is great in the update department....but this thing happening right now is giving me a headache im checking the update app every 3 hours.... Tragic,tragic...tragic
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
It's a decent phone but it really does have that lag people have been talking about. I didn't notice it at first but after a couple weeks it's doing it now. Only way to fix it is to either restart or close out all apps. Also I have issues with casting to Chromecast that seem unfixable. No matter how many settings I change Hulu, Netflix, etc just time out on me and 8 can no longer control the content on the screen unless I open the Google home app. The actual apps just freeze themselves of casting ability or just close all together. It's extremely annoying. Yeah I have been checking the update button even more than that, crackhead status like every ten mins for a week lmao. I wish I had a 5T.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] allrockedout:
I guess I'm just hoping that this works. I don't think it will install though.

Update failed
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
Keep us informed

Tell us how it goes for you man...i was about to try it myself but i dont know....
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] pcaseiro:
Did you just used a VPN to trick the server or did you do something else?

Give us an update on how it's working for you
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
Is called firmware finder

Is an app that Basically let you trick into download the OTA from their private server...as always is not 100% secure but people try it.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] GaBuzz:
Did this work, I have the app but never tried it..
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] allrockedout:
You can download the update but you won't be able to install. There's a verification after download. Your imei gets sent to Huawei. It will fail.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
Do they put you on the naughty list and move you to the back of the line for trying?
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] GaBuzz:
What would happen if you disconnect from the internet so it can't check the IMEI?
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] allrockedout:
No that won't happen. It's pointless to try unless you have twrp installed. That's the only way you can install the update. This update could take months to roll out.

---------- Post added at 01:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 AM ----------

It has to have internet to install. Unless you can fake your imei. SOL
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
That's unbelievable. I regret buying this phone. The lag is real. Apparently it just takes a few weeks of ownership to show up. Factory reset also barley helps.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] allrockedout:
Yeah this phone isn't for power users. Its a decent phone for the price. Just a bit slow. But it makes that up in battery life.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] allrockedout:
Anyone else have this custom version on bottom in settings about phone?

Captain diary.... finally updated

After 9 days waiting for the stupid update, i finally got it guys...is here for me i'll be posting any questions you might have about it and remember i bought the phone January 28 in case you were wondering about it
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] allrockedout:
My warranty date is Feb 2 2019 so that's great news hoping I'm the next batch to receive update.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] KingArthur10:
My phone received the update yesterday. I forgot that there are things about Oreo that are annoying ;). But, at least I got the update, and now I can start customizing it the way I like.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] DevilWithoutACause:
So I unrooted and put on stock recovery and my phone still can't receive ota updates?
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
Not everyone has received notice yet. Must be patient or do manual force install
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
Firmware finder

In case you want to check if the update is available for your imei, download firmware finder and use the check if you are good to download it.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
I get you man...now

Can you please tell us when you bought your phone so people have a perspective were the batches are right now?
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] KingArthur10:
Feb 9, 2018
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
I got the update today and I purchased my device only 3 weeks ago. So there is hope for everybody lol

This is exactly the kind of thing that makes you loose all respect for a company and their view of customer service.... :p
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
That I got my update? Lol
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] DevilWithoutACause:
I already checked and I am eligible the problem is my updater literally does not open at all
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] blasbenoit:
Uff that's tough man don't know what to do in that case try looking other post man and hope you have luck with it
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
You had been rooted, and had twrp before, then returned to unrooted stock. Correct?

I suspect you missed something on your restore.

Your updater does not open.

The update is in the folder /data/hw_init and if you had formated /data while in twrp, then this folder is gone.

Some other apps are in that folder too. Just to try and confirm of this is the problem, can you confirm if you have these apps "files" "health" "honor community".

If not then I suggest reflash twrp and and flash my backup of hw_init. It is from b140, so keep that in mind, it might clash with your actually version.

I purchased mine in December and I still don't have it, I just don't get it.....
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] sdivk:
I pre-ordered my 7x and got on 1/24. As I didn't get the update chatted with their customer service in honor support app today. He took my IMEI, and told me they will push the update today. Will wait and see.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] dlsega:
Bought mine Jan 24th, and surprise! Still no update.

UPDATE.........

Tried the firmware Finder for Huawei app.

And the update appeared in the update app.

Downloading at the moment.

UPDATE.....................

I suppose I did something wrong or it just doesn't work that way. Right before the phone was going to reboot for installation a message appear saying that the authentication was invalid. I did use the DNS option. And here I was all excited for nothing.

Still waiting.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
Nother version found on firmware finder today.

For Bond-L24

Linked xml file has file names and md5 numbers embeded

http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G2649/g1699/v135648/f1/full/filelist.xml

But still shows unauthorized for my imei.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] GaBuzz:
I chated with someone on the Huawei care app and they told me that I need to check once a week and it should be available to me within the next six to eight weeks.....WTF
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] darkmage1991:
why are so many people so impatient for the update... i feel you should be happy you even got the update as there are some devices that never received the next major android fw. and not like oreo was that big of a change. no reason to get but hurt if you have too wait a week or 2. if anything we should be mad its not 8.1.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] sdivk:
I chatted with someone in Honor app. He told me the same thing. Then, I have asked him if there is any info on how do they choose these batches for OTA updates. He took my IMEI and told me, they will push it today. None so far.

---------- Post added at 12:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:41 AM ----------

Yep, I agree. For some people phone has some lag with emui5.1. so they might be impatient. Other than that, all Android fans are at some point of their life, obscessive about software updates. I think, the 11 phones getting Android P beta are better options to buy in the future, rather than Honor phones.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] darkmage1991:
yea ill admit when i had my driod eris and my galaxy fascinate or even my htc desire i was huge into getting the next update. hell i flashed new roms every other day cause it seemed one had that chance to be that tiniest bit faster and that small amount was big back then. but now with todays phones there is no lag even on my grandfathers "free" $100 with $100 mail in rebate phone from cricket. and people who claim they have lag dont know lag. go get a galaxy s3 and then tell me lag.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
Most of the time I agree with you but this phone has a serious issue on emui 5. The lag makes the phone unusuable unless you clear all apps or restart the phone. I haven't experienced this in years and I've had phones ranging from an Moto e4 to Galaxy s8s so obviously it's just a major software issue. Oreo update seems to have fixed it for the most part. I didn't believe it either until it started happening to me after two weeks. Factory reset helps for a day or 2.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Helgen:
Never mind
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] sdivk:
Hi,

Before starting the download, please check firmware access and availability. If it say firmware is not approved for installation, most likely it will fail.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Helgen:
It wouldn't let me install it. So I deleted my post. I read on reddit the same thing after. This phone is annoying, and Honor are idiots.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] DevilWithoutACause:
I personally have 0 problems with emui 5 in terms of lag or anything and I'm probably the worst person when it comes to remembering to clear my apps and stuff. Albeit my main use With the phone is YouTube and spotify but personally I find the phone extremely smooth. Probably the best 170 I've ever spent on a phone. Still want oreo tho
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] pcaseiro:
Finally. Bought my phone by the end of January and today... Hello
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] dalergiles:
I got the update this morning and I bought mine in mid February. Not sure the exact day I placed the order but it was delivered on 2-20-2018. So far other than face unlock I haven't noticed a huge change though I use Nova launcher and wasn't having any lag issues.

[General Questions and Answers] jts999:
Hi gurus,

Been having horrid call drop-outs on the S8 since upgrading to v8/Oreo, was orig. on v7.

History:

- Kogan bought SM-G950FD

- Over time, put all the patches and eventually Oreo on, plus all patches since.

- Noticed degradation in calls with more and more drop-outs (3 today during one conv.) + unexplained low wifi connection speeds when compared to 2xS5's and an S6.

- Decided to drop an older v7 Telstra ROM into it tonight using instructions supplied:

https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G950F/TEL/download/G950FXXU1AQJ5/197573/

- Initial load seemed to go ok

- 1st boot said there was some issue with security and needed to press the 'Reset' button provided - did that

- Now it's simply boot looping with single word 'Erasing' on screen with the little white android fellow, reboots again, and around and around we go...

I have used the Search to try find similar issues without luck thus far...

Any ideas greatly appreciated... Apologies if this is in the wrong place.

Cheers,

JTS

EDIT: SOOOO, after much more reading and trial-and-error'ing last night, I found a post which had a video of a bloke doing exactly the same thing as I did... the only difference was that he suggested using Odin v3.12.3 **ONLY** - my version was v3.13.1 (from memory)... SO, gave it one more shot and BOOOOOOOM WORKED!!!!!!!! I'm now back on Nougat v7.0.0 and everything is sweet so far... only used the phone for a few calls but ZERO drop-outs thus far - fingers X'ed...

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Telekinesisx:
Expecting bootloop to hit my Nexus 5X , I got something different, display related..

The problem started few months ago, but I managed to solve it with one or more restarts. It came randomly, sometimes few months between each, and it looked like like this : imgur.com/N5vYzDt (photo from nexus 5 i found on web that had same problem).

And today same thing came back, I was watching something on YouTube and the screen started flickering and distorting, few seconds later it blacked. Tried to restart it X times, nothing. Tried to hold power+volume down button, I heard vibration but nothing on display (only backlight). Tried to put it away for few hours, thought it was heat related, still nothing. I see that display lights up a little (backlight) but thats all.

What could be possible solution for this? Its sad to see that this happened, phone was in excellent condition, never had major lag or anything..

-------

Took it to unofficial service, they said it could be display to replace. How come can this be if display is working (atleast backlight), could it be some connector or something? I don't want to throw money for something that may not work, or be temporary solution...

Atleast I learned something, avoid LG no matter what.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Scrutinized:
Hello all. Few days ago i've got refurbished LG v20 (F800S). Since that i expiriencing very strange problem. Almost every time when i connetct phone to my pc, its starts to charge and after few seconds the message pop up (slow charging due to not original cable) and there is no options on notification bar (charging, MTP, etc.), also it doesn appear on device manager which means its not driver. Choosing MTP as default on developers options gives no effect, aswel as enable/disable debugging or oem unlock. But sometimes it connects just like it should to (without changing usb port, or cable, or rebuting pc or phone). I tested it on 4 usb 3.0 ports and 2x usb 2.0 ports of my pc, and 2x usb 2.0 ports of my notebook. Everything worked fine at least one time with both 3.0 and 2.0 ports. I've got 4 differenct type-c cables, and it acts the same with each one of these cables (or usb ports). So i'm asking is there problem with charging port of my phone?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimJim300073:
I play a song set which involves jumping back and forth between multiple playlists. I've tried other ways to work around this; it really can't be avoided. The problem is obvious: the shuffle mode. Every time I select a new playlist, the shuffle list resets itself. As a result, I'm plagued with unacceptable repetition. UNACCEPTABLE. The same song plays 2-3 times in 30 minutes. So here's what I'm looking for:

A Profile, Task or Intent is to be written which will check the shuffle system against the Recently Played Playlist. When a song is selected, it is to be cross-referenced against all the songs contained in Recently Played. If the song matches, there is to be an immediate fast forward to a new song which will then be cross-referenced as before. The process will continue until a song NOT on the Recently Played list is selected. If all songs on the playlist are on recently played, a new playlist is to be selected.

What are your thoughts, ideas and suggestions for the code needed to perform this Task?

Sorry I didn't search guys... But real quick, what is the latest Titan ROM & where can I get it? I'm currently running the old 2.14 ROM. What are the advantages of upgrading to the new one? Excuse my noobedness... lol :D
[Mogul, XV6800 General] holliday.steven:
Oh, my provider is ALLTEL by the way...
[Mogul, XV6800 General] marriotheblackguy:
Latest ROM

Well the latest TITAN ROM is Sprints 3.35 available at the HTC America page, but if your looking for something to work with alltel you'll have to go see whats been cooked up by folks like DCD or NEX....
[Mogul, XV6800 General] x10dude:
You can save alot of time just by doing a search (at least try to do a search first)

Check the Titan Upgrades forum for all the information you need.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] holliday.steven:
Thanks. I looked in there but I was a little confused about if carrier mattered. Thanks! :D
[Mogul, XV6800 General] x10dude:
I really shouldn't do this since I'm a Sprint guy but it doesn't look like there is much Alltel help around here. The steps are fairly simple ( make SURE you double check on the upgrade threads)

1. Write down all your phone info (MSID, etc.) in case you need to reprogram the phone later.

2. Upgrade to the latest Sprint ROM (this is basically to get the new Radio with GPS capability)

3. Load SPL 2.40-olipro bootloader (Extremely important! - DO NOT attempt to load a custom ROM without this bootloader installed)

4. Load any Custom ROM you want (most Custom and Kitchen ROMs will have an Alltel specific ROM)

Enjoy.

(just to be safe, if you are running Windows, I'd do this on a XP machine.)

However, we must inform you that the issuance of this code implies the immediate termination of the warranty, however, if you still wish to obtain this code, please send us the IMEI number, serial number and product ID (* # * # 1357946 # * # ).
