[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] pointdooly:
It is great info and really appreciate your help!

Let me clarify your professional guide to use it correctly since I am rookie.

Currently, my phone is Bootloader unlocked, Rooted and TWRP Recovery & EMUI eRecovery

(I do see both recovery when I am pressing Volume + & Power Button. Not sure how to enter one or the other. Maybe longer press vs short press?)

Again, my phone current has MHA-L29 8.0.0.375(C567) w/root & TWRP/EMUI eRecovery

Your guide of Method#1 seems pretty easy to fellow specially it works without Unroot or flashing back Stock EMUI Recovery is not required.

Yes, it looks simple and clean method for everything. I just need to back up the data & apps. After update just do unlock, root(w/TWRP) again.

I think the most important thing is leave the SIM Card inside as you guide. These are few question before I start my work with your guide.

Q1. If I understand correctly, does my phone becomes stock updated phone(unrooted, OEM locked, no TWRP) after the first method of updating?

Q2. Can I use this method to the current latest one(which includes GPU Turbo)?

Q3. How about upcoming Pie updates? Same method would work?

For the bottom part, I am still bit confusing. Does the bottom part is alternative method(Method#2)?

I am assuming this method is step by step of:

- Root -> Unroot

- Flash Stock Recovery Partition by using the extracted Stock ROM to current the phone's recovery (TWRP)

So, basically make the phone back to Stock(specially recovery partition), Unroot. Correct?

Without fully understanding your Method#2, I was gearing towards the same direction to make the phone back to Unroot and restore back to Stock

first to apply all available updates. After I made extracted recovery.IMG, I tried to use fastboot(just exactly same as yours by knowing "recovery_ramdisk".

However, it responded back with error "FAILED: remote: command not allowed". I could also find out that even with "adb devices" does not show my phone.

I even tried to flash the recovery.IMG by using TWRP. TWRP response back with an error message explains that the image is larger compare to target partition.

Q4. For Update Extractor, I unchecked the first 'Verify header checksum' in Extract section.

(I found this guide from here:https://xdaforums.com/mate-10/how-to/guide-extracting-stock-firmware-files-t3756733)

Do I need to uncheck more?

Once again, I really do appreciate your kind and detailed pre-level information:good:. It would be really great if you could answer few more question to follow your guide(specially Method#1).

BTW, is there any differences in result or risk rate between Method#1 and Method#2?

Thanks!!!

anyone still have a brick?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] geogsm_1:
Brick? why should it be?

The topic is correctly written, lowering the GPU is impossible.

The phone is restored without problems using testpoint and board firmware :angel:

board firmware no longer works if the phone was bricked after september 2018 updates
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] kikson112:
why it not work ?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] uwapalwa:
Because it has old xloader
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] geogsm_1:
So what are the problems of flashing a board with a new bootloader

:D
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] uwapalwa:
It wont be possible
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] kikson112:
i cant belive sience its update xloader, if u have i can check it free if its bricked
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] geogsm_1:
Why is it impossible ?

Take a new Board and flash through IDT or other methods, through a testpoint and that's it.

To lower xloader, yes it is impossible. But the brick can be restored

HISuite Proxy ( Huawei Phones' Updater & Soft-Brick Fixer )？​
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] gnabtib8:
This module was originally made by @OMJ and tested on the HTC U11 US Unlocked model (BS_US001) with T-Mobile Carrier. I recently acquired a HTC U12+ Dual Sim (HTC__622) and then converted it HTC U12+ Dual Sim (HTC__626). Tested it on both and Google Dialer w/ Visual Voicemail works with T-Mobile Carrier. I assume it would be the same result on the HTC U12+ US Unlocked (BS_US001). Once installed you can continue to receive updates to the Google Phone app via Google Play Store. Cheers :victory::victory: Be sure to give @OMJ a thanks if this helped you and if you want to be super homie leave a donation.

Requirements:

Unlocked Bootloader, Magisk 17.0+ and TWRP

You must have a compatible carrier that supports the Visual Voicemail feature

Make the Google Phone the default calling app

Enable all permissions to Google Phone

Clear the data of Google Play Store

Installation:

Flash in TWRP Recovery

General Info:

To Disable The Module, Open Magisk Manager --> Modules --> The Module --> Tap On The Check Box/The True Icon --> Reboot

To Enable The Module, Open Magisk Manager --> Modules --> The Module --> Tap On The Uncheck Box --> Reboot

To Uninstall The Module, Open Magisk Manager --> Modules --> The Module --> Tap On The Bin Icon --> Reboot

If the magisk module doesn't work for you, try the following but it is more trivial.

Make the latest Google phone app (apkmirror is your friend) a system app using this method

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-terminal-app-systemizer-ui-t3585851

Then modify the desired values to true (you could activate call screening with this but more than likely will not work) to the dialer_phenotype_flags.xml file, the directory is the following

/data/data/com.google.android.dialer/shared_prefs

That will give visual voicemail with transcribed voicemails. This is assuming both your carrier and google allow it. There is no way to force compatibility with visual voicemail but other features will work aside from call screening.

Did you previously have any existing builds of Google phone installed? Also are you using any other google framework like magisk modules? Using any themes currently?
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] mdxdave:
Nope, no version installed before, no other magisk module or any other modification. I am using substratum, but didn't choose Google phone or contacts to theme

Are you running stock, custom rom or just a magisk rom module?

Clearing the data and cache from the Google play store should remedy that if you don't want to opt for beta releases
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] LibertyMonger:
I just checked it out and this is what I found...

Google’s Call Screening feature only works on the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL smartphones, but it will be available for the Pixel and Pixel XL, as well as the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL in November. It’s unclear if Google plans to keep this as an exclusive Pixel phone feature, or if it will be baked into Android at a later date.

Everything else seems to work especially caller ID and spam blocking. It helps to negate the argument that Sense is too old when we can add apps like this and turn HTC phone completely off.
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] LibertyMonger:
And I just checked the Playstore to show how Google phone shows on the U12+ and I already have another update.

I will try theming the navbar but last time I tried it didn't work.

YouTube app navbar is themed so I suppose the apps I theme work.

Is it possible to get visual voicemail with VZW? It seems like they lock Advanced Calling features out of non Verizon branded phones
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] LibertyMonger:
They didn't lock them out, it is because Verizon did not make it's on software for the U11 and U12+ like they normally do. Verizon used to not even let us bring unlocked phones, we had to buy Verizon branded.

I haven't messed with it yet but I think it will be possible to get Google visual voicemail

I use the Substratum app with the pitchblack app. It's really easy to use and even fixed my white navbar issue.
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] malenurse.sb:
Thank you so much! I had tried that before but it didn't work. After tinkering, it turns out it just doesn't work with the Viper magisk module enabled.

Visual Voicemail Confusion

I've been able to get vvm on Google Voice but Google Phone vvm doesn't seem to work. Nor does HTC's voicemail option suggest i can even change it.
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] gnabtib8:
Sounds like you need to switch your voicemail service back to your carrier. Another user had a similar issue with youmail. Once he switched back to his carrier settings he was able to activate the visual voicemail in Google phone. But keep in mind you must have a compatible carrier to use the visual voicemail feature. Only a select of carriers support it
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] THUNDEROID:
Have this up and running on a U12 on Verizon and working. But I can confirm vvm doesn't work on Verizon. Possibly you have to have it activated on your account to begin with or something. Just says too call some Verizon number.

Keeps force closing on WWE 1.30, Viper Magisk ROM

Hello, I installed the Magisk Module a few days ago and have not been able to to get in to the app for more than a few seconds. It keeps force closing. I followed all the instructions in the start of the thread yet it still keeps force closing. As far as I'm aware, I haven't had a previous version of Google Phone installed but I might have, some time ago. I don't really remember. Is there any other information you need in order to diagnose the problem? I'd be grateful for any help you may be able to provide. Thank you in advance.

VVM and Transcript Success on Nexus 5 crDroid v4.7 / Oreo 8.1 on TMo MVNO

HUGE THANKS!!!

Seems to fix the broader issue of the Google Phone not offering VVM on AOSP ROMs.

For me, this module installs Google Phone, enabled the embedded VVM, including Google powered voice-to-text transcript (which might be specific to Nexus/Google HW) . Followed the install as stated in Post#1.

Hardware: Nexus 5

ROM: crDroid v4.7/Oreo 8.1

Carrier: Mint (TMo MVNO)

Google Phone: Module installs v23.x, updated to v28.x via Play Store

Again, huge thanks for fixing this obscure issue.

***UPDATE***

Original expericence as stated above still working great.

In the meantime, got my hands on a Straight Talk/AT&T SIM and was NOT able to get VVM to work at all. Seemingly ST does not support/forward the service... perhaps more like they filter it IMO. The original AOSP dialer on crDroid wasn't able to see/sync to the service (which does without issue on Mint/Tmo), nor did the Google Phone app after applying the mods, no matter what version. Lesson here... dont use ST/AT&T if you value VVM. BTW, they are happy to sell you the service for $5 to $10 (pro) per month via proprietary app...
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] LibertyMonger:
I'm good for something! Lol
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] umaranjum:
I don't. Is it required for the Phone app to work?
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] LibertyMonger:
It seems it is. I tried without it and it didn't work.
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] umaranjum:
I installed it and it seems to be working, fingers crossed.
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] collinschen02:
Thanks for your nice work, I tried to flash it same time I have Google dialer framework module installed, but I got Google dealer keep FC, I don't have Google dialer installed before flashing, I am using HTC use eyes by the way.can you guide me how to get Google dialer work ?
[HTC U12+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] gnabtib8:
If the magisk module doesn't work then there is a different method that more trivial but may work.

as far as i know, the devs dont have the code for the camera api2 needed for these apps from Samsung. so we are stuck with mediocre camera in non-tw versions. so it doesnt matter what you try, as long as your ROM does not have the api2 support coded in, the app will not make full use of the api features.

Flashing splash screen

Hi

I have used SplashScreen Changer to create an .nb file according to the instructions. However during the process it created a RunUpdateUtility and associated flashing files. Including an RUU_signed.nbh file which contains my .nb file.

My question is this, is it safe to continue to run this updater to flash my bootscreen, even though the picture in the utility shows a Herald?
[HTC Startrek] timwb:
One step further

I used RIE from the first post to create an RUU_signed.nbh file containg just splashscreen and logo. Can I use any ROMUpdateUtility from another rom to flash this to my phone without affecting the rest of the rom? Such as using an official HTC rom and just replacing the .nbh file? (I have QTek RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship official rom downloaded)

I am currently using this rom:

I tried this and it only changes the outer screen once the phone has booted. It doesn't replace the HTC Inovation logo that appears on the outer screen as the phone boots. It just displays whenever the phone is open (depending on outer display preferences, I rather keep the time and status bars instead of an image).
