Just got August Security Patch.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] innocentone1:
Hey everyone so I have a BLA-A09 c567 (US) I got this phone used and it came with the bootloader unlocked. I managed to get the code and relock the bootloader at a later time. After going through the settings I noticed that the system update feature is still gone? I thought after relocking the bootloader and factory resetting it would come back. Is there something I am missing or will I not be able to receive OTA updates now? Please give me some guidance and thank you!
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] side_flip15:
What's the status of the phone when you got it aside from Unlocked BL? Is it rooted?

You should never loose system update regardless of the BL status. I suspect the previous owner debloated it.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
They didn't flash the hw/public zip when updating.

Or possibly just removed it, for some reason...
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] innocentone1:
So is there something I can do to return the system update feature? Or should I enjoy the blessing of a free debloat? My only issue is how will I get OTA updates. Can I just use the hisuite app the update instead?

Currently my Bootloader is relocked and unrooted looks like they messed around with the device then just relocked it and unrooted. When I purchased the device it was "like new" used for a week only.

I am on the C567 .119 patch

A flashable zip with instructions or apk would be amazing please help, but if it isn't an issue and I can just use hisuite to update I won't lose sleep over it.

Also is there anything important in the bloat zip besides system update?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] nabril15:
I had the same issue when I flashed my phone with 119. I extracted the update ap apk from the hw zip file of 119, attempted an install, but it will not work. The app is in the play store but won't install on the phone. I will try to pm you the apk
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
It won't install by using the package manager.

You can however download the hw zip file and flash it through TWRP, this requires unlocked bootloader and TWRP.

It will show a bunch of errors when installing through TWRP but the hw_init folder is copied successfully to /data/hw_init/

You can find it here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77248270&postcount=72
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] nabril15:
For some reason, in TWRP, I cannot see the contents of my sdcard. I wiped the data partition when I flashed the 119 zip files using huru, so I don't know why I cant see that directory.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
Try going to Mount and unmount then mount Data again.

Or just mount if it's not mounted

(If you are encrypted and not using Pretoriano80's TWRP you won't be able to anyway as it would require either TWRP with decryption support or decrypting by Format Data then edit fstab and remove encryption. Dont Format Data now as it will wipe your /data)
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] nabril15:
thanks ante

I unmounted and mounted and I now see a bunch of folders whose name starts with a (.). I am using twrp version 3.2.1.0, which is the same version as BLANC, I believe, which is for unencrypted data.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
If it's just a bunch of random lettera/numbers it means your are encrypted. You could switch to https://xdaforums.com/mate-10/development/huawei-mate-10-pro-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3769904

Just flash it and reboot recovery. You will get a Pin/password input prompt, input your pin/pw and it will decrypt.

You can use adb to push the image to /data:

adb push twrp.img /data/

Then select Install and tap the dots to go up a level, go into /data, tap the Install Image button, scroll down and select twrp.img.

Or flash using fastboot as thats easier xD
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] nabril15:
Thanks again. I did not know that we can flash twrp using twrp itself. Weird.

What pin/password is to be used?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
The one you use on lockscreen

When it's done, transfer zip to sdcard and flash.

As I said, it will error and say it failed but it does copy hw_init.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] nabril15:
I have a pattern :)
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
Try entering it as numbers. Pattern would look like this in number mode:

1 2 3

4 5 6

7 8 9

I guess you could just remove pattern temporarily if your only goal is to flash hw :p
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] nabril15:
[MENTION=2247733]ante0[/MENTION]/culi

I flashed the twrp blanc, and as able to see my downloads. Cool. I then flashed the update_all_hw.zip file and it errored out at the end of the script with a write data error update_huawei_pkg from the zip file.

E:unknown command

Error installing file

Nothing else gave an error

EDIT - disregard..I rebooted and I see that I have the system update app now AND, it found the long-seeked 119 patch, which I installed. Cool. After the patch was applied, the phone rebooted itself into recovery, I saw it run some script, and then it rebooted into system. Weird. The phone, however, still shows the version as 119, and not 119 patch 01 or something.

RE-EDIT - redisregard. THe version shows as 119 patch AND the themes got installed from the zip. Ok, so it looks like I now have a complete version 119 US variant of the stubborn and cumbersome Mate 10 Pro. Though I read that an update came out yesterday with the August security patches.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
Yeah, flashing hw/public zips will give errors. This is because its supposed to be installed using Huaweis update binary. So twrp can't process the commads.

If we do WiFi browsing we can achieve 10+ hours SOT easily but if we do 4G browsing then it is not possible to achieve 10+hours SOT

With 4G browsing maximum I have achieved is 8hours SOT
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kuance:
Thanks for showing the image. My review is not to beat out one of those. I love both of it but some bit from each of them. But from your image, i think it will be misleading if you dont explain clearly. SOT depend on usage a lot. it varies from user to user. Plus it depends on ur signal strength on both wifi and 4g. and from your picture, it seems that you are not on your data. and probably thats is the reason you have strong battery life.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kuance:
I agree with this post. Much more informative. Else it can mislead many newbie and newcomer who dive into the world of flashing and tweaking.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] LeekGeek:
Its mixed usage.. when I'm out I use 4g signal is low to medium its never excellent.

Used 4g for like 3-5 hrs
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kuance:
thanks for the info. It's logical if that is the case. Normally some user like me have 4g on mostly all of the time which ranging from 25-35 hours of phone usage per charge.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Zanr Zij:
For me:

- Pie better: battery, temperatures, smoothness, memory management

- Miui 10 better: features ( remote, dual apps, VoLTE, dual 4G, themes... ), mobile signal, stability, stock camera, some Miui based Rom has good enough customizable
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kuance:
Im just curious how everyone say Pie got better battery. Mind to share experience? I tried both. clean flash, no root, no magisk. same apps and same usage pattern. Both battery seems similar to me with MIUI 10 idle drain seems much significantly better than Pie.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Otarie004:
Mobile signal should be the same in all the roms (same modem if we want to stay in arb3). However MIUI is more optimist with the indicator.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Alister.:
It's possible to update the modem while your on arb3, without updating the bootloader itself so you can stay on arb3. People on arb4 modems would be all different depending on which update there currently on.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Zanr Zij:
Maybe it just indicator. I will try again next time. With me after updated to latest Bootloader, phone seem perform a bit better. Older Bootloader useless for me because I will never lookback ARB3 fimrware.

---------- Post added at 05:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 PM ----------

You can update modem only :)

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:21 PM ----------

Nothing special for me: format, wipe all, flash Rom + Magisk, restore apps by Titanium Backup, using L Speed to get better Doze
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Alister.:
If you mean the icon that represents the signal strength, in android they can be flawed and aren't reliable indicators, need to look at SIM status where it says Signal strength -108 dBm 32 asu that's an accurate number.

Not sure if that's what you meant, yeah modem, and dsp, and bluetooth can all update without the bootloader. :good:

Plus if landscape + fullscreen video. 50% of the time I mess up on the gesture. but it dont takes more than 2 tries to get it correct. [MENTION=5778867]kuance[/MENTION] in fullscreen setting there is a option, during fullscreen video or game gesture require two swipe to take effect that maybe the reason
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kuance:
Yes, thats the reason but i do not want to turn that off because i need to secure my video experience just in case i accidentally swipe it off.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] predek:
[MENTION=5778867]kuance[/MENTION] well mate, I totally agree with you. I was a huge Nexus fan but I have to admit that Google has lost is way. Google gesture are ridiculous, they have simply redisigned the old navbar. No gesture at all, no full screen use, no killer feature compared to other OEM.

I would like to consider also security of a rom, and Xiaomi is pretty quick in merging monthly security update.

I have bought whyred to run Los or other custom rom, but I can just say that now I can't find any good reason to change MIUI 10 with any other rom in xda. And it's just because MIUI 10 is simply amazing.

I think that sooner or later Xiaomi wil be involved in some privacy issue, cause I'm pretty sure that a lot of user info are sended to Xiaomi servers. But I'm not an idiot, and I know very well that using a smartphone, any Smartphone, your privacy simply does not exist.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kuance:
Yo bro, im glad that someone understand the intention of me doing this comparison. I am not here to bash how bad Android Pie is or whatever bad thing it has. As I said, i am a die hard fan of nexus and pure android experience. I remembered my Redmi note 3 pro. The first day I unbox my phone is also the first day I switch to pure android. In the meantime, trying to switch to MIUI trying to "give a chance" to the so called "bloated" OS.... I cant. I give up, and still back to pure android. But it's different today. It seems that the chinese has closed the gap (if not ahead) of what their big brother is doing now... Cheers.

ps: i still hope Google did something amazing like what they have in the past. Well, the new digital wellbeing is great.... and thats all.... even the smart alarm from MIUI 10 is amazing. But that's special case for me because I know that theres not a lot of chinese here.

android install

This might be related as I was just installing windows on Android version and now reverted back (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77556606&postcount=44), couple of observations that might help you: On android reinstall back it required to activate halo keyboard to get it working again, there was a phone code entered into the search bar to get it activated which triggered something called easyimage app. In android stock image you can actually find easyimage.zip which I guess is this "fake android update" to install the halo keyboard. Inside the zip are *.so libraries and some files related to halo keyboard and ink pen so you could try to play with those to get it working under classic Linux.

DNX mode allows to boot EFI via a USB cable &*fastboot (I guess windows version have also this as I activated it somewhere in BIOS?) so this can be also alternative version of booting an OS. IMHO Grub can also chainload iso image directly (I did it in past on normal PC, it was a couple of years ago so I can't find the guide to do it now) so in theory you can just place the Linux ISO image as a normal iso file on disk and tell GRUB to chainload that directly. Since it's possible to revert the Windows installation back to Android it might even be possible to dualboot. Android bootloader is also EFI based (kernelflinger) so you could also play with that. TWRP recovery image have full touch support for screen so that might be also a help when digging for configuration or extracting it from the sources.

This is really helpful, thank you. I'll have a look at what's there.

[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] thipok17:
I'm currently doing on that without the Hardware. my plan is to find the small / light weight linux kernel and port the driver of the HALO. I call this Project HALO port (not on github cuz I just gathering everything until I ready). right now I'm learning to compile the kernel because I never do that (3 years on linux xD). I hope soon I can figure out the protocol it did uses for the HALO (My guess is I2C/SMBus).
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] thipok17:

[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] jekhor:
Hi, I am the author of the repository mentioned above, https://github.com/jekhor/yogabook-linux. My linux porting efforts were focused at kernel, getting battery charger driver and halo keyboard working basically. So, this kernel supports the battery gauge, battery charger (with fast charging mode, yes!). For halo keyboard patch for the goodix touchscreen (touchpad really) kernel was needed, see the https://github.com/jekhor/yogabook-linux-kernel/commit/bd3a5953126fd87e4218550c5a31baafcdc60a38 commit. There is userspace keyboard driver in the Chromium OS which converts touchpad events into keypresses. Forked version suitable for build at GNU\Linux system is here: https://github.com/jekhor/chromiumos_touch_keyboard .

Some patches were accepted to the mainline Linux already:

0e116237aa42 extcon-intel-cht-wc: Make charger detection co-existing with OTG host mode (v5.1)

ff6cdfd71495 ACPI / x86: Make PWM2 device always present at Lenovo Yoga Book (v5.1)

236c765d6abc mfd: intel_soc_pmic_chtwc: Register LED child device (v5.2)

a72a1be0de71 extcon: intel-cht-wc: Enable external charger (v5.2)

Feel free to ask me about this work and to create github issues. This is my spare time project, so I will glad to see other developers connected.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] blgblade:
nice project dude :) was trying it today and touchscreen works good so far,

but i cant get the halo keyboard to work, if i try to use it my mouse only moving from left to right and right to left.

if i can help you with creating some logs or something else, just write me ;) i'm not rly good on linux, but i want to use it on this low power device ;)

edit: and yes i tried to reload the kernel modules (if modprobe is the correct command) but no change

i dont know if the problem is maybe that i have a germany keyboard layout, changing in the menu works for my hw keyboard but on the halo no difference still only mouse movement

[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] blgblade:
yep i have a YB1-X91F ;)

ok nice, than i will wait for the next release

i found out 2 things that did not work (or not correctly or i'm to stupid xD)

- sound (but i allready see the post in issues ;) )

- the gui and if i tried video it looks like there is no graphic driver installed (dont know how to specify this, but if i just move a window it looks like software rendering, ok my english should be better to explain this but i hope you know what i mean ^^)

if i found something more i will give you feedback

but for now, its rly nice work

thank you so much for this project :)

- # moved to the other position

- added the > < | key (dont know the name ;) )

It has been more than 2 full years, one in this forum has been able to achieve in only a few weeks of coding what MOST of us have tried to achieve in years. He has uploaded his ISO of Debian with many things working, however some things are left to be desired : Resume keyboard (tried with script - failed), fix for keyboard keys layout, and the resolution (worked with XRANDR script : working). However, he does not seem either interested in going further or does not have the device to compile against, either way without him we could be stuck with WinBlows on this machine. Until we get him BACK on board, we are stuck in the water... [MENTION=8976792]jekhor[/MENTION] ?
