That's disappointing.. is the firmware L09?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
Mine arrived this morning at 08:30 yay!!

But disappointed to see that there is no case included in the box, when I have seen unboxing vids on YouTube where there clearly is one.

Can anyone confirm if they received a gel case/cover in the box?

.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bigup7:
Black from cpw, L09

There is no front screen protector out of the box which is a bit of a let down, it’s not even covered with anything. The back has one.

The SIM card tray says sim1 and nm on the other side but both sides fit a nano SIM card.

SIM card in nm side of the SIM card tray does nothing.

Finger print scanner is pretty fast

There is no case in the box.

I put a bit of plastic over the screen and finger print scanner works

There was no update out of the box, it’s currently on 9.0.0.108(C432E10R1P16)
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Phil750123:
mines not coming til after 5 :( looks like i need to order a case though!
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jazzsalt:
I was not expecting a case - the Amazon product listing does not mention one:

"Box Contains

Handset

Charger

USB Type-C Cable

Headset

Quick Start Guide

Warranty Card

Eject tool"
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mancuk29:
Just had an email off Amazon re NM card I ordered it on 16th was expected today they are still trying to get me one

So Huawei change the memory card but won't provide suppliers with them great ?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
Yeah I was surprised that the screen wasn't covered with anything, that's very unusual. Also the inner box has small icons on it to indicate what's inside it, there's an instruction manual icon and what looks like a case icon. The inner box size does seem to be made to fit the case as Huawei often includes, so it's strange that we don't have one. Thanks for confirming though.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Kipp162:
Mine will be here between 1 and 2 but pretty annoyed that there are no cases in the box. I didn't purchase one because I was led to believe there will be one included.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonathan-H:
I am getting mine from EE. Surprised there is no case in the box. Were the boxes sealed?

I have not had a confirmation even though delivery is due today so I am thinking the worst.

Although they are in stock at EE now so maybe it will still be sent to me today.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Robotchicken2018:
Which case is everyone getting?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Kipp162:
I'm thinking of just getting a cheapo one then a Tech21 case when they come in stock.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cass67:

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ero69:
I note people not getting cases, and a post noting it wasn't in the Amazon description of inclusions, so just pointing out that on an Australian website it states "Clear Case accessory included" - Wonder if it's country dependant?

Mines arriving between 11.25-12.25 so any minute, won't have it in my hands for a few hours yet, luckily my case has arrived as well.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Freelancer247:
The About says: LYA-L09

Build: 9.0.0.108(C432E10R1P16)

Having a few issues with the fingerprint sensor and the glass screen protector I've bought so might have to look at a replacement protector.

The face unlock is so good though I'm not worried about that right now.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cass67:
Thanks.. bummer... The store checked it out in had L29 on display.. is the enable OEM unlock option available to select in developer options or is it greyed out ?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Freelancer247:
To be fair if you read the official spec it states the included case is not for Western EU or Northern EU Countries although admittedly they've written it as WEU and NEU which isn't exactly helpful.

https://consumer.huawei.com/uk/phones/mate20-pro/specs/

---------- Post added at 11:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:49 AM ----------

Greyed Out :(

The O2 chat rep told me it was dual SIM but I don't think they really knew....
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bigup7:
The included case would be rubbish anyway. I never use them.

Btw EE state they have stock now.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
No screen protector due to under screen fingerprint.

Most EU and UK models have no case.

I have the Huawei silicone and blue and a cheapo clear case from amazon. Using clear silicone as you can see nice colour. Huawei case is better for grip and protection.

There should be a firmware soon.

Noticed some have build 108. What is the C number shown in brackets after build eg C432 or?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Freelancer247:
9.0.0.108(C432E10R1P16) on mine.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] lawtq:
Who else is pissed there is no case!!

All the review I saw had cases! Annoyed
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Coolbananas:
Going to pick mine up from Three, turns out they don't send any emails or texts until it arrives in store. Delighted either way.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] :
The case would of been shocking anyway £4 to get something similar from amazon and ebay, I'd rather have the charger and watch to be honest and have bought the official smart flip case from ebay £15.99
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
I just got a software update pop up:

H3G.GB 9.0.0.8(CT)

86.83Mb

Change log:

Adds customised apps of certain network providers

Optimises the display of some UI elements (such as network provider names, default languages and 4G network name.

I have both an EE sim and a Three sim inserted, so not sure what this update will do. Bit reluctant to install it if it's gonna bloat the phone...

..
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mancuk29:
I saw something about the update where it installs update so it doesn't brand the phone off a unbranded phone as all other phones have but that reads like it's gonna brand with bloatwear ****
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
Yeah, I don't want branding on this baby! I probably won't install it. Would be interesting to hear from anyone who has though...

..
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cass67:
Got the phone on O2... Seems it's not locked to a carrier.. my virgin SIM works in it.. likely all we need is L29 software to make it dual SIM.. Suspect it's compatible with L29.. Mate 10 was.. find out in a few hrs when L29 code finishes downloading...
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jusumgeezer:
Just had mine delivered. Mad dash to get home on lunch break.

No gel case in the box though? Did anyone else get a case? All the reviews say one is included
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Freelancer247:
How are you downloading it out of interest. Firmware finder?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cass67:
Androidhost.ru

I just googled the c432e10r1p16 model and up that popped.. it's quite slow, I'm getting about 200kbps speed.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] geovass:
H3G is a 3 firmware
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cass67:
Got similar when I put O2 SIM in... Declined it :)
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Robotchicken2018:
My Three phone is still stuck in the world of DPD!!! I wish they'd sort it faster its nearly end of the day!
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cass67:
Actually probably pointless its L09 that works on L29 and not the other way round and have both sims working Guess we need BL unlock or FH to rebrand to other model ..
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
Yeah I realise H3G is the Three network but I was curious as to know exactly what impact this would have, especially as I am using dual EE and Three sim cards together.

..
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
The update you're declining is needed for your phone. Read this post. Huawei are not doing the same firmware stuff they've done previously. Basically one phone for China, and one phone for everywhere else. Means firmware is easier to update. So all that needs to happen, is put sim in, and network settings/apps/etc are installed. The big change also is when you factory reset, it removes everything to do with your sim.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] danielson00:
Some apps that allow finger print authentication need to be re-installed to work properly. (If they are restored from a backup). They don't recognise finger print authentication until you do.

I must say Huawei Phone Clone worked a treat, I expected major failures!
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] JustinL01:
Received mine this morning from O2 Business. It's on LYA-L09 firmware so single sim, however it is carrier unlocked. Installed the update, current build number 9.0.0.108(C432E10R1P16). The update installed a few apps that I promptly uninstalled, however didn't brand the phone or not allow me to remove anything. Feels better in the hand than the P20 Pro, will have a proper play over the weekend. Also no case or screen protector included so just ordered a cheap one from Amazon for the moment.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
Screen protectors may not work. Either they dont adhere properly, or the underscreen fingerprint sensor wont work.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonathan-H:
EE have let me down. Don't pre order with EE unless Pre Order to you, means getting it later than general release.

I have no idea when they are going to deliver as they have no idea.

They were very happy for me to cancel my pre order but they would be because I will lose the free gifts.

Enjoy your phones haha
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
Thanks Gavin, I was concerned because although I got the phone from Three, I was mainly going to use this phone with an EE sim. But if it's true that this update is removed on a factory reset then at least I can roll back if necessary.

..
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Ksmy89:
Has anyone pre ordered with Very? I placed any order yesterday and it stated delivery for today however I spoke to someone via online chat earlier and they checked stock with the supplier and are claiming there is no stock and couldn't give me a date :confused:
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
Yes understandably too. My 3 sim only added network settings. I don't even think it added any apps or splash screen but I have a dual sim. Single sim will add apps and boot logo, but it's not permanent as far as I understand and have been told.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Nestacres:
I'm with EE, pre ordered and received today.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] JustinL01:
Hi Gavin, no boot logo is added by o2 just a few apps that can be removed.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:

Hey well.. i was really pissed off at Amazon too, but guess what .. mine just been dispatched today for the del tomorrow... Its the twilight version... So black is going back to cpw haha

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] panrix:
Oh, the joys ?

On a different note, I've just been into an EE shop to have a looksee. It was a dual SIM L29! I wonder what mine will be when it eventually appears.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Ksmy89:

Good news and bad tried a screen protector that fitted perfect but the finger print reader was patchy at best so have took it of and sending it back for a refund.

However have just tried the music form the USB port and it's brilliant was using a set of shure se 535's with a dragonfly black amp on my oneplus with good results but this smashes it definately providing more power and the music is clearer in lows mids and highs. Will test tomorrow with stock dongle and another the razer dongle
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
USB Audio is wonderful.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ralfs:
Got it today from three.

Vodafone called me and asked why i am leaving them.

I told them cause you don't have dual SIM.

And they say of course the model we have is dual SIM!

I said ok.. now it's too late ...

I assume the above statement is just bull...

Btw at keynote they had a demo of 3d scanning the panda. Where is this application? I can't find it on my phone
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:

Has anyone from Very.co.uk received their handsets? Mines showing delivery 27th but I've not had any dispatch emails or anything to suggest it's coming tomorrow? If I don't get it tomorrow I won't get to use it for another 2 weeks, going Away for work.

How's everyone getting on with their handsets? Does it live up to the hype? Anyone got Dual SIM expecting single SIM?

Mine was dispatched yesterday for today delivery it landed nicely at Manchester postal centre ready to be delivered to the local sorting office and what did royal mail do .. send it to the wrong delivery office so it's now back at Manchester postal centre ???? am hoping for delivery tomorrow otherwise it's Monday ?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mister.V:
Damn thats harsh! I hope you get it tomorrow :fingers-crossed:

Do you mind if I ask when you ordered it? And the colour?

I logged in to Very account and it's still showing tomorrow delivery. I really hope it is because I fly out Monday early morning.

Nice to meet a fellow Mancunian :D
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mancuk29:
Yeh manchester is awesome ?

Ordered it 16th October the twilight blue one ... It did originally say tomorrow delivery so I can't be upset I suppose just got excited last night when I saw delivery today and good old royal mail cocked it up

They do deliver from very on Saturday you won't get dispatch notification till very late on so I am sure you will be fine
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] daz_2000:
Yes. Glad it's not just me.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bigup7:
What kind of issues?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mister.V:
Most Definitely :D

Ah ok, I ordered mines on the 18th, I want that excitement too lol. RM are a joke.

They do Saturday delivery? That gives me hope, when I ordered my note 9s the emails and updates were spot on usually around 7:30pm and arrived next day. Still hopeful.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] daz_2000:
I believe it's just a setting actually. I have just changed it and seems better. Goto notifications. More notifications and choose icons as notification method.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] vwite:
Shouldn't they appear in the status bar? Or what's the problem, you get the notification but don't see the icon on status bar?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] daz_2000:
Correct. But with the change I made. I think its back to normal.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] vwite:
What change did you make?

The status bar is empy and don't show notifications at all or it is full of other icons? Could it be some icons hiding behind the notch?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Robotchicken2018:
had that enabled and its still not working... i smell a bug

I'm waiting for Vodafone to sort my account out so I can do a flexi upgrade, once sorted I'll be ordering one however I'm a little worried about the delays with stock now and I'm pushed for time because I've got to return my Mate 10 pro to Curry's.

Once it has been sorted though the guy at Vodafone promised me I'll still get the preorder offer because it wasn't my fault, this should be a fun process! [emoji57]

I can't wait to get my phone!
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] daz_2000:
Yeah. You might be right, I have a little feeling the WiFi is a bit ropey too. But early days and I may be being paranoid.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gazm1990:
Just to update people on my order through Very. I placed an order on the afternoon of the 25th October for Twilight model as it was still showing as delivery today 26th October. After reading all the delays from other people I was fully expecting not to receive the device today, and I was right.

I then noticed that today Very were stating that both the Twilight and Black versions were out of stock and have now removed them from their listings completely so I assumed this means they won't be getting any stock for at least a few weeks like every other retailer.

However to my surprise I received an email at 10.30pm tonight to say that my Twilight mate 20 Pro has been despatched and will be arriving on Monday. I can only assume they had more stock delivered sooner than expected.

Anyway I hope other people are lucky and get their phones very soon, keep us posted

EDIT: Just checked my tracking and it has been received at my local sorting office and will be delivered today! Not bad considering how late I pre-ordered it ?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ralfs:
Having issues with wifi as well that disconnects randomly and doesn't connect again.

Also does anyone know how to force dial using WiFi calling? If I turn on airplane mode and WiFi then I can make calls but I need a switch with preference to WiFi...

Got mine today from Vodafone . Phone is amazing.

Shouldn't we have got a free case on the box. He ones on the reviews did.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gavinfabl:
No there is no case in any UK box. Some countries get a case.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] daz_2000:
Did you get yours from three ?

I think I read there are only two UK versions, dual SIM l29 and single SIM, is that right?

I am running..9.0.0.108 is everyone else?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] @home:
Those who ordered from Amazon, Are your orders out for delivery today?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] __NBH__:
Got mine yesterday from mobile phones direct. On O2, model is LYA-L09, build number 9.0.0.108(C432E10R1P16). Checked for an update but nothing came through. No carrier branding from what I can see, it didn't even ask me to install any O2 apps like my old phone did but I don't seem to be able to uninstall some of the included apps.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bigup7:
Are you on Three?

I think Three WiFi calling works differently to others, it will only switch to wifi calling if your GSM reception is very poor. Well that’s how it used to be, things may if changed.

With EE it’s on all the time unless you switch it off or have no WiFi signal.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] maverick1103:
Vodafone works the same as three then, I miss EE's WiFi calling.

But memory slot also as well as sim ??

Hi mate, Yes Single SIM unfortunately (SIM+NM) twilight color looks amazing.

Excellent! Left mines on charge won't get to play until later this evening. Filled out the claim offer on the promotion website. ?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mancuk29:
Ah thought we couldn't do that till first week of November I'll go and pick mine up shortly

Did very send a receipt or just their dispatch sheet ? What did u use as proof of early order I've saved the email I had from them will use that
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mister.V:
The offer claim form opened on the 26th Oct and runs until November 25th I think. I'd do it asap just in case they have a limited amount of watches and chargers on a first come first serve basis.

Yes they did, it confirms the orders no, date of pre order, all the info required to process the claim. The site is crap though on mobile what was suppose to take a couple of minutes took 20!! The website kept crashing. I'd advise to do it on a laptop or computer.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] danon.brown:
Is the shipping address needed to confirm for the promotion or just the order number and date?
