hello,bro. what do you mean when u say " If not you will have to pay $30 or $55", pay for downgrade or unlock booloader?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Unlock. Downgrade is free IF possible. For example:

On BLA-L29C432B142 you can use DC. On B145 it doesn't work but can be downgraded using service firmware. B146 or higher can not be downgraded past B146. Build is not the same on every cust, so if you are on C636 the build where DC works is different. But generally it's May patch firmware.

Paid expensive unlock is done by FH and ministryofsolutions. If you have rebranded using FH before you can not use their service (FH Rebrand changes your imei in fastboot).

My phone has 3 issues with EMUI 5 updates (when it launched for the first time). I made a post about it on my account. I just want a long run phone. Do you think this is worth the money or 5T is better?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00449:
Well? Should i waste my time with Huawei again or move on with Oneplus/ google pixel 1?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] matemade:
Actually the Mate 10 pro is an excellent device.. But considering the possibilities of an one plus 5 or 6, I'd not go with Huawei anymore.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00449:
Same. Mate 10 pro has so many great features but it is not a long run device. I can see myself changing it in 2 years after Huawei will kill my phone like their attempt with my P9 lite. Oneplus 5T is a great deal for me but the camera is not as impressive like on Mate 10 pro and only has 64gb. The fast charging is pretty neat on 5T, but the long lasting battery on Mate 10 pro is very nice for me too.

Idk which to pick. I can go for 5T for the long run (which may keep me more than 4 years due to development), but we will see what will happen during christmas. Either way, i have the google pixel pinned on my shopping list. If Oneplus 5T 128gb gets cheaper, then i will go for 5T.

Also Mate 10 pro doesn't have the bootloader unlocked, thus the phone aging from outdated software.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00449:
Ok so looks like Oneplus isn't trustable anymore. I've seen many posts about security issues and that pushed me away from the company.

Ok Huawei, you won... Buying mate 10 pro
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghostofcain:
Oh that's an interesting take on the situation, I was going to recommend the mate 10 pro anyway but for different reasons.

I came from an OP3, battery life of the mate 10 pro is a different league, software, bar a few foibles, is ok. Although there's still issues with android auto compatibility and as has been mentioned custom ROM scene is impacted by lack of bootloader unlock. With hindsight I'm still happy I made the right choice, hopefully when I'm due an upgrade other OEMs will have decided to fit usable batteries.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00449:
I could had gone for oneplus 5T but i don't want to go change my rom just when i purchase it. Huawei killed my nerves with the warranty. So you got your mate 10 pro too?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] derausgewanderte:
I had the Essential PH-1 and the Mate 10 Pro. I sold the Essential PH-1 even though it already had full Pie on it. The screen of the Mate 10 Pro is a beauty and it's fast and snappy at anything I throw at it. However, as others have said, if you want to get to Pie quicker or you like to tinker with your phone and use a ROM, you are pretty much out of luck. If you are OK with the latest security updates on Oreo and the thought that you "maybe" getting Pie then it's an excellent phone. If I had the chance to buy the Mate Pro again I would go for the International version even without warranty. I do want the face-unlock and other features that the US version hasn't received and might not receive.

It's a tough decision. I might look at the latest One Plus 6 or the Mate 20 when it comes online. But the price difference is too large and I want a great phone now - so I am quite happy with the Mate 10 Pro.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00449:
The only phone i can buy is the international.

Again. Oneplus 5T is a great phone but the software has terrible security and privacy (by the looks of it.)

Mate 10 has solid and flagship features but support is as bad as the long term software updates.

Again, i can go for Oneplus 5T but i don't want huge headaches changing roms. Besides, Google implemented whatever "limitation" that will not make your phone trustable unless yadda yadda.

Google pixel was a good phone but it's a 2016 device and the pixel experience will pretty much be gone.

The only options are oneplus 5T and Mate 10 pro. Oneplus 5T with good specs and software but bad privacy. Again, i can buy it but i don't want to change the software just when it was fresh bought.

Mate 10 pro has many features and great design. Also the pc mode is very very cool and it does not need a dock. Also has always on display, which Oneplus 5T has only by rooting it (unless Oneplus implements it). But, as we know, Huawei has terrible software support and warranty as well (warranty being my case).

In my opinion, i think Mate 10 pro is a better value for the simple fact that has water resistance, pixel-like camera, 4k battery and other hidden features, but i have to send my cousin to buy it so HUAWEI won't add anything sketchy in it :laugh::laugh::laugh:.

Oneplus 5T is a mate 10 pro in a cheaper form. Great specs, great build, great battery and great charging. But the software raises your anxiety with these "privacy and security" issues. A custom ROM solves the issue (as i said earlier).

I want to hear your opinions about these 2 devices. I want to buy a phone for the long run. This is my opinion. Sorry that the post feels weird, but i am always skeptical of buying new phones, especially "flagships"
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghostofcain:
I really am surprised at the security concerns with OOS, I'm still active on the OnePlus community forums and haven't seen any recent security scares, the android patches are September and everything else seems OK.

The big advantage that led me to choose the Huawei is the battery. OnePlus are still fitting 3400mah batteries ,which too my mind are too small, clever software tweaks can compensate, but those same tweaks can make the mate 10 pro even better.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00449:
Actually about the security and privacy of Oneplus's OOS is the fact that it can collect all your activity through an app that gets all your logs and sends them to Oneplus. Again, skeptical with both the devices. I am sorry for my "temper" between these 2 devices, but , again, i am concern about my purchase as i want a phone to last me more than 3 years (at least)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghostofcain:
I think most modern phones will last more than 3 years on the hardware side, judging by the support I've received so far for the Mate 10 pro, I'm skeptical that software support will last 2 years let alone 3. OnePlus are much more supportive of the development community so custom support is much better.

A word of caution though, both devices are 2017 devices a full two years official support will take them to 2019 you are after support for 3 years, from now that takes you to 2021, that is well outside the official support window of even the best devices.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00449:
So what should i buy between those 2 devices?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghostofcain:
Either is a good buy now, the Huawei edges it on cameras and battery by a fairly good margin, BUT if you plan on using it for 3 years and want some kind of software support, official or unofficial, for that period I'd go OnePlus every time.

BTW if youre worried about possible spying by your phone, have you read any of the press re Huawei? Use of their devices by are actively discouraged for this reason in certain countries.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yes i did read about that. I am not sure if 64gb of internal storage will keep me in the long run. The 128gb is actually more expensive than Mate 10 pro.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] derausgewanderte:
Your decision in the end. You got good advice here.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] deekjx:
Sounds like you really want the Mate 10 Pro. I don't consider the China spying thing credible unless you use their Huawei ID (I doubt there is hardware spying on a personal device). If you run custom ROMs, then it doesn't matter.

If you get a 5T, send it in to have an the security codecs added. Free fix. It has a ton more custom ROM development. All we have is OpenKirin. They have 3 ROMS but only Omnirom 3.1 is fairly feature complete.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Again. The price concerns me as well. Mate 10 pro is very very awesome, but , again, skeptical and the issues with warranty and software updates pushes me to Oneplus. But the 128gb is, like i said, more expensive than Mate 10 pro.

What do you guys think? Again, forgive me for my bad decisions.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hey!kevin:
I'm also considering the Mate 10 Pro. I can buy the Huawei Mate 10 Pro BLA-A09 (US) unlocked new for $499

I'm also considering the OnePlus 6T, rumored specs and price seem appealing.

My concern is the frequency of updates and ease of customization for the Mate 10 Pro - unlock, root, custom ROM to emulate stock google, etc. I've read this thread and a few others, the consensus seems to be the Mate 10 is a PITA with updates and the user interface is sketchy.

I'd also like to use Pie, but it seems like we're not there yet.

Any suggestions are appreciated. I've been a Nexus and Pixel user since Nexus 5, so looking for an experience as close to Google unlocked as possible.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghostofcain:
Buy the OnePlus then, Huawei is a PITA regarding bootloader unlock and rooting, and whilst Emui isn't bad it also isn't stock android.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghostofcain:
What did you go for in the end?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] revjamescarver:
That's just wrong

If in the states he HAS to get the C567 (BLA-A09) or he doesn't get any warranty at all. The imternamodel has no warranty when sold in the USA
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] All Day On XDA:
Hey people.

I just received my dual sim Mate 10 pro, here in the UK for £350. Bought from a Spanish online retailer.

Have come from a LG V20 so I'm used to slow updates!

This M10Pro is an excellent phone. Fast, looks good, seems to last an eternity and feature packed.

I stopped rooting and installing custom roms after my note 4 died and to be honest I don't need it anymore. Adblocking doesn't need root, built in theming maximises Amoled's beauty.

When Pie comes to this phone it will be even better as the notchless and buttonless face will be perfect for gestures.

Would highly recommend this phone to someone who wants powerful hardware, excellent design and appreciates the value added features of Emui. The personal space tool is fab.

Its an absolute bargain at this price and there's few phones that give the same bang for buck currently.

How to set a permanent launcher so that it does not change on the vivo launcher ?
[Vivo Nex Themes, Apps, and Mods] mohan1726:
I was previously using Yandex launcher and will say it is best but recently switched to smart launcher bcz for larger screens it makes easy to show icons/options towards lower portion so easy to click using thumb.
[Vivo Nex Themes, Apps, and Mods] siijii:
Change launcher

You need to get a vivo account which requires a chinese phone number you can get at onlinesim.ru/en for a few cents (paypal possible). After adding the vivo account in the account menu in settings you can activate "allow the launcher to be replaced" in more settings / security and then change it at security / device manager and reboot.

But I don't know if this is necessary in the global version... Does anyone know?

P.S.: Here is a video describing how to change launcher: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOCLSUugXf0
[Vivo Nex Themes, Apps, and Mods] tossero:
No, this procedure is not required for the global version.

You can replace the stock launcher without any problem.

Just installed CPL Launcher which is a highly customizable fork of Rootless Pixel Launcher on here and the Playstore and it's superb as well as free with no ads. Currently assessing battery drain but even that seems minimal. I recommend it so far.

Update: 24 hours later and battery drain is negligible. I'll be sticking with this launcher.

Only if you set it to continuous you will get the REM phase recognition. Without it, the sleep tracking is missing this data.

[Samsung Galaxy Watch] masi0:
I check Garmin forum as Fenix now has REM measurement capability and you know, it does not work either:laugh: to measure REM you must be in certain sleep phase with eye movement, muscle contractions and high brain activity. Not sure if a single sensor can measure that. And you dont have that type of sleep too often :D

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ----------

if in sleep settings the REM is enabled then it is continous HRM + body moment, otherwise it is just body movement + HRM the way you choose it (e.g. frequently)

Hello.

I was on the September update, unlocked and rooted, but I wanted to update to the october one, so I uninstalled magisk and flashed the september boot and system images.

Unfortunately that didn't work (I still couldn't install the OTA), so I' ve decided to flash manually all the images of the october update (I got them on the OTA thread).

After that my device went on bootloop, so I decided to flash again all the images of the September update (V9.6.13.0).

When I run "fastboot flash system_a system.img" I got the error "Invalid argument" and after that my device turned off.

Now IT IS TOTALLY BRICKED, I can't turn it on and I can't even enter fastboot.

I really don't know what to do, do you have any idea?

If you have working fastboot try to Flash full September update with Mi flash tools, wipe everything and Lock bootloader.
