BLA-L29 and BLA-L09 C185 listed today

For Mate 10 Pro BLA-L29 in Middle East C185, on FF the update seems to be added today 26th of December but, is not approved still build 9.0.0.177, However if you go back to the end of November you'll find an approved build 9.0.0.159, my fingers are itching to get it but I guess it's a beta build so I'll wait for a couple of days, who knows the latest build which is added today might get approved soon.

You probably have a folder in internal sd and one on sd card. I usually delete the internal one and copy the contents to external one.

This is not a bug. My wife's Samsung does the same thing for folders.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] domy_os:
ACR works without any problem on my Mate 10, I use the same setup as on EMUI 8.

I had the same problem with doubled Viber Images folder after upgrade. The solution was to delete complete folder and create the new one from Files manager.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Dave.rvl:
Then you are the only one. They, who made the app said that it's a problem with Pie. Many others are complaining as well. You are a lucky man.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] neverone:
Nope, no additional SD card. I find the 128 GB to be more than enough. Also both folders in gallery app show same images/videos.

Weird

It could work. I might give it a go if nothing else pans out
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] domy_os:
My colleague has Mate 10 Pro, also no problems on Pie...

So, battery life became to normal after factory reset, three days of normal usage. :) During this period, there were 6 h SoT, phone talking 1 h, reading e-mails, installing and testing some apps, using camera a little bit...

WiFi, 4G, sometimes BT & GPS

Auto sync two e-mail accounts

Auto brightness

Viber & WhatsApp
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] neverone:
I've done it. I solved the doubled download folder. Essentially I've moved everything from the Download folder, went back to Gallery and deleted it, turned off cloud upload, and went back to file explorer. There I noticed that Download folder isn't in fact gone. Then I moved back the files, and now all seems well.

I still think that this new gallery app sucks. Not really legible or easy to organize, not really easy to move and make everything logical.

Nothing today for BLA29C33, it's due to Altis firmware... I think I'll rebrand soon my mate 10 to the European firmware...
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] neverone:
I've been interested in rebranding since I've bought the phone, but Funky Huawei are charging way too much for the service, and as far as I know, by reading this forum as of lately, they stopped helping and replying to emails...
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] atrako1973:
Funky Huawei are greedy , I'd rather wait , besides the phone performance under android 8 is amazing on all fronts .

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] inthedark22:
Don't bother, i have one but still on oreo...
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ghostofcain:
You don't need funky Huawei to rebrand, but you do need to do a lot of reading and researching before you take the plunge.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] hedoras:
We need the unlock code and for now funky Huawei can give you the code...

I dunno many way to unlock the bootloader... I read many things about it but no solution without paid $55 to funky Huawei...

If you have one, please tell me the right way to unlock the bootloader :fingers-crossed:
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] neverone:
You guys are both right. And normally I'd take the chance and do it myself. But so far I've only ulocked and flashed Mediateks and Snapdragons, and Kirin is entirely different beast. Huawei put so many protective layers, and there's a high risk of bricking it, and not much ways of unbricking it in case something goes down.

I read that DC Unlocker was on a good way to enable everything that FunkyHuawei offers, but for free, however, they don't have full device support, and they seem to have stopped working on it
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] DonFoileton:
I was eager for the Pie update because my fingerprint scanner stopped working and thought the update will solve the issue, but no luck. I'm also thinking about factory reset. Did any of you have problems with the fingerprint scanner?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] neverone:
Honestly, no. My Mate's fingerprint scanner is one of the fastest and most precise I've ever used. Especially when compared to my girlfriend's Galaxy S8.

In your case it might be a software issue, but, I'm afraid it could also be a hardware issue. Factory reset will definitely remove any doubt. Do you have a regular, non-pro or the pro version?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] DonFoileton:
I have the Pro version (BLA-L29). The fingerprint scanner just stopped working all of a sudden. Maybe factory reset will help to determine, whether it's a SW or HW problem.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] atrako1973:
Can you see fingerprint settings in settings ??
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] neverone:
I agree. I know it's a hassle, but at least, with apps like FolderSync and MegaSync, it's a lot easier to back up and get your data back once you've reset your phone. So I guess that's somewhat encouraging.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] DonFoileton:
Nope, it's as if it never existed :)
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] 0rigin:
Then it's a HW issue.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] neverone:
Crap, that's bad news... :(
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] atrako1973:
I think it's hardware issue but try hard reset to confirm ,its still under warranty I think to send it for repair .

I received this morning the last security patch for Oreo!

I'm waiting now, but it's getting frustrating too!
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] forserg:
Nice, did you update it?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] superandroid2011:
Yes, sure.

Too soon to tell anything consistent, but I liked the new camera interface and those small interface changes.

But overall, couldn't see much of a change from EMUI 8.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] chaksonj:
I got the update this morning. UI is really nice but that's as much as I would say. Most apps won't open and just take me to the home screen. Facebook sorta works, until I try to change settings and it takes me to my home screen. Messenger just won't log me in. Camera works fine though.

The second worst cream pie I've had.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] spin671:
Notifications of majority of the app don't work. Telegram, WhatsApp, email. Only Aqua Mail works, but with Push disabled. So I guess there's a bug with Push.

Anyone has the same problem?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] aselmani:
I also received a similar update this morning...I mean what the hell is this? Why not the 9.0?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] kediterbiyecisi:
After major update you must hard reset the phone. That is fixes your issues.;)
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] mab71:

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] jaseman:
You should NEVER, EVER,

have to do

a hard reset with ANY Android Update!!!!

Are we still on Cupcake, or Froyo maybe? Android has been out for 10 years now! Are you saying that after 10 years of Android development that the OS is so bad that it cannot update itself properly? Are you saying that millions of end users, who don't know RAM from ROM are required to completely reset their phones every time a new version is pushed out to them? NO way!

Can you imagine having to completely reset and redo everything on a Windows computer just because you got a "new" version?

The entire world would scream bloody murder!

I have been using "smart" phones since they came out and I have NEVER done a hard reset after any version update.

I think the problem resides with people who install far too many unreliable, or rogue, applications. It is the poorly coded apps that cause the problems, not the OS. My $0.02

So users just have to be smart and read more.

Since backup and restore is an nuclear physics for some factory resetting your device could be potentially ground breaking procedure that lasts hours. For us who know how to backup and restore that procedure takes 3 minutes after booting up.

That's why XDA forum was made back in Mid 2000s.....to teach you smartphone basics like backup and restore.

I also used the eRecovery method and updated to 9. I have a locked BLA-L29C432.

"Check firmware access" was a little buggy (with dns changed) and just kept restarting the app. I just ignored it, went into eRecovery.

I'm using ACR after the update to pie and it's working fine. Have you tried it?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Aslan1967:

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] DominatorX1:
That is because you need to set the DNS within the Wi-Fi router first and then it should appear.

Just a quick inquiry : has any of you guys noticed significant changes in camera capture. Low light pics were way better on 8 than now on 9. Tried the wipe and redo all from scratch, but still the quality is bad.

Any thoughts?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] neverone:
I haven't really pit the camera to the test after the update, but it does seem that the overall camera quality has dropped. Maybe the reason for it is the new camera app and a whole different way to set up and focus the scene, that I've yet to master, but yes... It doesn't seem as good as it used to be
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] rath76:
I thought that's just me. Somehow the pics In low light are smudged now. Haven't had a chance to test further, but I must say that I am very disappointed in pie update

---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

One more thing : the sound quality of the ACR recording is not even close to the sound I had with the 8.0 HW call recorder app. Sounds kinda distant. But, since it works, I'll be happy ?

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] anubis.genix:
For those having problems finding the new Firmware with the DNS/eRocovery method. I had also to disable IPv6 on my Router, otherwise eRecovery is going to download the version you're already using on your phone.

My phone didn't factory reset, so I could use it afterwards without restoring my stuff from backup.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] aselmani:
Yeah I am having the same problem, with Firmware Finder the phone is downloading the version I already have!
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] hedoras:
But you always need to be register by imei by huawei...
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] TheUltraGrey:
Just a small question for the folks who were able to upgrade through eRecovery, must the package be approved to succeed in its installation? because I've tried build 9.0.0.177 on mate 10 pro BLA-L29 C185 about three times after downloading it fails to install. There is an older build 9.0.0.159 which says it's approved for installation, I'm trying it now.

PS: I'm checking for availability before changing the DNS, because after changing the FF crashes on checking any ROM availability.

UPDATE: It seems that the older build has successfully installed, I might try getting the latest one later once it's approved or perhaps it was a network issue that corrupted the package of that latest version while being downloaded, I'll keep you posted..

I've emailed customer support seeking some details about the rollout as well as clarification. I'll update once I hear back.

Just for further clarification, the November 10 EMUI 9 release was confirmed by the CEO of Huawei. The unfortunate thing here is that it was confirmed only for the Chinese models with no specifics about any global variants. Hopefully more information will be available soon.

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] PK_Droid:
Huawei Club is not available in all regions (specifically talking about North America as the governments restrict Huawei cloud services due to security concerns). Any and all updates have to come from push notifications or through the settings menu.

---------- Post added at 03:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 AM ----------

Some people on here (P20 Pro forums) are stating that Huawei have told them that their regions will be receiving the EMUI 9 update on December 22. The two sources were in Europe (Croatia and Serbia respectively).
