I agree that doesn't make any sense.

I bet Google has much better and more efficient quality control than Huawei. My only concern is that we don't get our security patches in time, rest can wait.

I have a Vodafone UK contract from a 3rd party provider and I received the UK model and am stuck on .110 firmware.

Those who contracted directly through vodafone received the European model and have been updated to .128 firmware, I believe, by vodafone 3 weeks ago.

Am I awaiting on Vodafone for my updates?

...... I just don't understand [emoji849]
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] NightOrchid:
Sadly like most here, Huawei didnt respond to my Tweet either.. so, we're stuck on 110 until they can be bothered to update us.. We are now 3 revisions behind 432 variant.. .... 128, 131 and 132

If Im really honest with you guys.. Im not enjoying this phone... the camera UI is over-complicated, over-sharpened images and not THAT great, the Stereo+ on the speakers is VERY annoying.. It turns off when the screen times out.. which is irritating for quiet night listening., plus.. EMUI is a bloated mess (but NOVA or Google launcher can fix that).. Im still within my 14day cooldown period from CPW.. Sorry Huawei, but the XZ2 is looking tempting about now.. with full monthly UK updates and support, almost Google stock UI, equally great speakers and an awesome camera..

I just dont know yet, havent decided
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] robertmputt:
Seen a tutorial on YouTube already on how to do it and I'm having no luck at all. Just doesn't want to work for me. ??
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
You're better off waiting. Firmware Finder lists the the same firmware versions multiple times but they are not the same. There is no way to know which is the correct version for your phone and installing an incorrect version causes problems as i found out yesterday!

If it helps, I have a CLT-L09 C782 handset and in the attachment below I have highlighted the latest version that was approved for install on my handset that installed successfully and appears to work without issue. The firmware marked as "Do not use" is what I installed first time round but this version resulted in continuous OTA update notifications and a notification of unauthorised modification detected messages.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m7svk:
And what about 317 version? Thanks for correct 316 version, not sure if to go for 316, 317 or wait for approved 320 version, I installed 295 before but now device failed safetynet, how is 316 version? Thanks.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
When I flashed 316 yesterday, 317 wasn't in the list. Regarding safetynet well CTS Profile match fails but Google pay and banking apps work just fine lol

I'm installing 317 now as it's approved for installation on my device....

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 PM ----------

Ok just updated to the 317 and all appears fine. When running safetynet test everything is a success except for the CTS profile match, that fails. My phone has never been rooted, not had the bootloader unlocked and Gpay and banking apps all appear to work just fine.

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
I just run safetynet on an old p20 lite that I bought sim free from the carphone warehouse that has never been rooted or updated (still on 8.0.0.161) and it fails on response signature validation so that app doesn't appear to be the best lol
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
Just looked through the reviews on this app and others have reported the same issue so the i'm confident that the app/google is the issue and not the phone/firmware. :good

For the doubters - Screenshot attached!
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m7svk:
Ok, thanks for info, so I will give it few more days, and if 320 still not approved I will go for 317.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] pablo103:
You must register update in the firmware finder to download in hisuite

317 works without a problem
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] aka.petteri:
I register it. I followed that tutorial step by step. Somebody said I need to set up the DNS on my router.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] BurtieBL:
I've downloaded 317 but it's constantly telling me I've made unauthorised changes
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] BurtieBL:
Downloaded 316 and all good now. Was waiting for O2 to push an update but as far as I'm aware no one has received it yet. At last now have WiFi and 4G calling.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] robertmputt:
wonder why there's nothing about gpu turbo like on some c432 ota updates i've seen
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m7svk:
Ok, had more time tonight, had 295 installed, gone ahead for 317, and had stupid repeat update around 600mb coming back, gone for 320 which was not approved, then gone for correct 316 and all good so far.., maybe now 317 will be fine, and prefer wait for 320 as I am on 316, and 316 have turbo update...
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] aka.petteri:
Received now the 9.1 update. Size is 4.02GB. C782 EE UK branded, Telekom Germany simcard in it. The version is 9.1.0.311 :)
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m7svk:
Ok, 316 was killing my battery, and today 320 become approved, installed and so far really great..
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
.320 is now approved for install. This version has the following additional notes in the changeling:

I actually reported and experienced responsiveness issues while using .316 on the UK Huawei forum a few days back and I have updated from .317 and all ok here! I also noticed that .325 is listed now but not approved for install, .325 as far as I can tell contains Google's August security patch where as .320 contains July's.

Edit: Definitely skip .316 and .317 (never tried earlier versions) and go for .320! It's way more responsive.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] chrissyyyw:
Are you guys installing it with a patched Hi Suite and DNS modification?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] BurtieBL:
I'm using 316 and it appears OK. Did try 317 but it was laggy and I was getting a firmware update notification and unauthorised modification warning which wouldn't clear.

Anyone using 320 are you receiving constant update notifications?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
I had the constant update notifications and notice of unauthorized changes when first flashing .316 (see my previous thread and screenshot). This happens when you flash a firmware version that was not meant for your phone.

---------- Post added at 09:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 AM ----------

Yes.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m7svk:
320 still killing battery, Entitlement is always on, wiped dalvick few times, no any help, looks like need to install 311 but not sure which one..
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] chrissyyyw:
If you guys are having battery issues I may hang fire until EE roll it out via OTA.

Need decent battery life as it's my daily.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
I noticed poor battery life on .317. I have just charged my phone to 100% and will see how it goes. Does .311 have the responsiveness issues though? If it does then I don't want it. Would rather go back to 9.0
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m7svk:
311 was roll out as official ota update, and is stable without battery drain, was using 295 and was great, but there are so many 311, not really want try all of them..
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
Not seeing any battery drain on .320 so far. Since my last post I went from 100% to 99%. Will know for sure by tomorrow though!
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] serseri22:
Guys quick question i just received 9.1 ee uk when i checked phone about there is no gpu turbo 3.0 mentioned do i still have gpu turbo or not

Thank you in advance
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
None of the UK models have the GPU listed in the about menu so that likely means the answer to your question is No even if Huawei tell you otherwise.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m7svk:
Never had issue on 295, but had on 316, 317 and now on 320...
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
Odd, I have been using my phone to watch youtube and browse the net and i'm now at 78%. I'd consider this normal usage though, I even have Bluetooth enabled 24/7. I'm not rooted or anything like that! When I was using .317 I enabled power saving mode and used my phone for approx 15 mins over a 5 hour period and I had lost around 48% battery in that time. :rolleyes:

Anyway, entitlement isn't in my list of apps? I found this:

https://uk.community.huawei.com/p20...-my-p20-has-become-useless-battery-drain-6397

Do you use tethering? Hotspot etc?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] lobbanal:
Just received 9.1 through EE UK. Took a screenshot of update and it says gpu turbo is included with this update.

Hopefully everybody gets the update soon. The slow updates on this phone have been a major disappointment for me.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
Yea thats the changelog, says the same for all versions... Go to Settings > System > About Phone and see if it says GPU turbo anywhere on that screen, i'm betting it doesn't.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] chrissyyyw:

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] lobbanal:
Yeah, how right you are. Hadn't updated phone when I first posted but have now and no mention of GPU Turbo in about phone. Strange!

I have also noticed that Google Play Store states that my device is not certified...

Huawei are not listed as a partner anymore:

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
OK a final update on this...

After having safetynet fail and my device listed as device is not certified in google play store on .316, .317 and .320 I decided to flash down to the .311 release as this appears to be the version that devices are being officially updated too. I can confirm that this release passes safetynet and is listed as certified in the Google App Store so i'm sticking with this version!

For those wondering which .311 version to choose in FF, I selected the version with the 1755 in the g field.

My version of ".311" has gpu turbo. It's said that on my phone with previous versions as well.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] 00mpollard:
Delete post - sorted my issue! :)
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
Yea but your phone is not the L09 single SIM model and neither is it the UK C782 variant so your comments are irrelevant. It's well know that the C432 varients get all the latest updates and has GPU turbo.

This thread is about the L09C782 UK model.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] CaseyS:
Apologies on my part. I read the heading wrong.

New 311 Patch

Ok, info for all who are using 311, new patch just come out, and looks like this one killing entitlement. See attached photo.. , hope all will get it soon.. ;)
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] chrissyyyw:
Wonder what that's all about.

I have noticed VOLTE to be quite temperamental on 311 on EE.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] m7svk:
Its about entitlement killing battery randomly, and probably few more bugs, they realized they left in 311, tried 316,317 and 320 all same, no point do get them, will wait for later modified version, at least this fix come quick, was nearly getting ready to upload 295 again, which was great.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] WelshPaul:
I wouldn't recommend using .3176, .317 or .320 as they haven't been certified by Google. Personally I see no benefit having moved from 9.0 to 9.1 (other than latest security patches). 9.1 is buggy! DND no longer works, battery life is worse (I get a day now rather than 2 days - I don't have the entitlement bug) and clicking on the dustbin to close down all open apps no longer closes all apps for me

Anyway, this patch should be pushed to everyone running .311 - Crazy that they are leaving users with phones that are useless while they release it in batches!
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] 00mpollard:
Thought i'd give .320 a whirl although it had negative comments above.

It failed safetynet (expected) but my google pay/tsb online banking worked fine :)

So far it seems very fast and fluid, battery life seems ok too. Only problem i have noticed as stated above is that clicking the bin icon doesn't close all apps but i can live with that :D

Same for .311, .316 and .317

Also DND no longer works!
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] 00mpollard:
True! I guess I'll find out sooner or later ? seems pretty fast so far anyway. Fingers crossed .327 will get approved for us soon ?

Hi guys I have the 316 version updated with hisuite and it tells me that there are unauthorized changes, and the device is not certified. He tells me that I can downgrade to the last authorized version. Should I do it? Or look, I saw that on the finder there is version 327 which should be authorized soon.

Or always roll back using hisuite manually to 311. Thanks!

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] 00mpollard:
.320 is fast for me but after a day or so of use i've noticed battery life is pretty poor (probably entitlement bug) hopefully it's fixed in the newer versions on firmware finder. Just need to wait for approval on it...for now i'm back to .311 as that seems to be the "official" release

No it's not the bug. I had that on another version, 317 I think. When it's the bug it's the same version that's offered. This is a different version.

I installed it and no other updates are showing. The battery life appears to be better although it wasn't terrible before.

Hello guys I have a question. Yesterday I have received model L09 with old Oreo firmware. I got several updates, bigger and smaller...and now the phone is stuck on the "latest version" 9.0.0.231 (C781 Italy) and March security patch. Both updater on the phone and HI Suite shows the latest update is already installed.

Is it possible it takes so long to receive update on this phone, which is Italian region if I understand correctly?

I know waiting is sometimes longer when big updates are rolling, but having March patch as the latest is not normal if you ask me.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

can I use the firmware finder erecovery method to install CLT-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.328? how do I know its for C782 and C432 ? also what does LGRP2 mean?

does updating via erecovery void the warranty? I haven't rooted or done any messing about with firmwares on this phone.

Hi guys,

i wanted to buy a used p20 pro and saw that the model is a L09 Europe Version. Now i found this thread which says that the L09 gets updates slower. In German Forums i saw Threads where Updates begin only with L29.

Now i dont understand the Update-politics for the L09 Model.

Could someone tell how it is in real?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
L09 is single sim. L29 is dual sim. The region is designated by the c number. C782 is UK. C432 is generic Europe. This can only be checked by checking in the software about details on the handset.

The frequency of updates fluctuate. C782 was hideously bad then all of a sudden they were ahead of all the rest now they're behind again. Any c432 will stand you in fine

Its good that we are getting V130.

---------- Post added at 02:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 PM ----------

I guess we all are different. In contrast I am really enjoying my P20 Pro. Moving from galaxy s6 I feel a pretty huge improvement. Camera UI is nice, I love all the settings in Pro mode. I have to agree that im not 100% convinced with Apple style camera interface but I got used to it. You get oversharpened pictures, but afaik its fixed in latest software release. And I believe they will keep improving camera (in fact its software that does almost all the job). I like the stereo speaker setup, very load and crisp. (haven't noticed that it does that when screen goes off). To be honest EMUI 8.1 is the best android UI I have used so far, definitely prefer it over Samsung experience or stock android. I don't think its that much of bloatware, you can disable the apps anyways. So far so good.

I found an article which stated that Huawei will release a GPU Turbo update which will increase 3D performance by 60% and be 30% more efficient. (that's what they claim).

Hi

This si great hoping it gets OTA soon as we have all been waiting since 110 on single sim C782
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonathan-H:
I would check lots of reviews on the XZ2 before you waste your money. The camera is garbage, and I mean god awful, as is the case with every single Xperia X or Z ever released, the battery life is bad compared to the P20 pro, and Sony phones are notorious for failing when water hits them.

I can tell you now, the P20 pro speakers are only equalled by the S9+, and the Camera, while oversharpened, cannot be matched.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Rheumatoid:
What I don't understand is that if voda got their filthy claws in to my 782 when I inserted their SIM, why haven't they given me wifi calling?
