Someone mentioned that someone in the UK had received the 171 update a week ago, well guessing that was a load of bull, unless it wasn't a UK spec phone
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Grondah:
That's probably it. If it is sent out according to IMEI.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] HazeusMaximus:

Singapore *.171
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] scleone1987:
Yes but I think it depends on IMEI batches
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mrbeem:
Have you got 432 or 636 version??
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] scleone1987:
636
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mrbeem:
That's Asian region. Probably phone was ment to o for asia. European is 432. 432 version is still on .153
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] padibuz:
Where do you go to get this version number?

I'm quite curios what's mine and its region.

Thank you!
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Grondah:
Settings > System > About phone.

Look for 432 or 636 in the build number.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mrbeem:
You have software version first that is for example 9.0.0.153, the after that in brackets first 3 digits are region info. So 9.0.0.153(432...) is europe
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] padibuz:
Understood, thank you !

No funny business with mine then, 432, I'm in Europe, stuck with .153.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] scleone1987:
I bought it from an ebay reseller. I guess there's no official warranty on it but the reseller declares 2 years of warranty.

There's no such thing as a good One Plus update. Every Oxygen update breaks something. One Plus updates are primarily bug fixes for things broken by earlier updates.

i bought my phone with model c432 but i have flashed with FH method and my phone changed to model c636 ...so could i have problems with warranty of huawei in the future ?

Lol u cant compare Oxygen near stock android to EMUI. Considering EMUI are heavily features, the updates are still good, say comparing to Samsung.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] MirageBlader:
Coming from HTC, Huawei provides lightning fast updates :)

It's still January, how can people complain not having January patch yet? It's Android, after all those years you should have got used to it.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] ccl2003:
Agree 100%.

Don't understand why people here are constantly complaining of slow updates. Its either they're not real Mate 20 Pro owners or are simply trolls.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] kps@2019:
Mate, Huawei has bested itself... I already have the January patch... I mean how much fast do you want updates. I agree it is region dependent and stage rollout but still.

Check the screenshot of my version and security patch :cool:

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] jhs39:
There is nothing remotely stock about Oxygen. Whatever the UI of Oxygen looks like the underlying coding is much further from stock Android than EMUI. That's why Oxygen regularly breaks third party apps and needs neverending bug fixes. There is no such thing as a stable build of Oxygen. There hasn't been since back in the days of Android Marshmallow which was the last build of Oxygen that actually was near stock Android.

The really sad thing is that among software coders and developers the fact that the coding is completely inept on One Plus phones is not only widely known--it's a running joke. XDA and Android Police know that the coding on One Plus phones is terrible but plug them anyway. The only people who don't seem to have a clue are the suckers who actually buy One Plus phones.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] demon2112:
huh why do you have an volte icon? my volte is working but have no icon of it
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] restevezes:
such a biased opinion against OP!

I can't speak for code quality but feature and appearance wise, Oxygen is much closer to stock than EMUI, and definitely smoother.

They are generally recognised as one of the best implementations by manufacturers (for sure better than EMUI, touchwif... you name it)

I talked to Huawei this morning and got told the update 9.0.0.183 for my EU (Germany) Mate 20 Pro started to roll out on the 23th of January. Since it will be in stages it might takes a few days until I get it. But the rollout has already begun. :)

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] billybobjones:
being less trash than trash doesnt make it good or acceptable,

i mean i dont really care for this update as my phone is working fine, but that logic bothers me
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] AndyCr15:
I disagree. As I expect none of us have any idea how much work it takes, one of the better was to decide if something is acceptable is to see how it compares to others. Otherwise you just have impossible/unfair standards.

It's much more logical than simply demanding something with no idea of how reasonable it is.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] jhs39:
It's accurate. XDA, Android Police and other western tech sites have become shills for One Plus, which is a terrible company.

When One Plus started out their phones were a good value and Oxygen was a clean AOSP ROM that stayed very close to stock Android code. After Marshmallow One Plus fired the entire coding team that created Oxygen and transferred coding to the Hydrogen programming team in China.

Hydrogen was supposedly the ROM One Plus used in China. The problem with that explanation is that One Plus doesn't sell phones in China--they are an export only brand and the Hydrogen OS was something nobody actually used.

Starting with the Nougat update on the 3T Oxygen was suddenly insanely buggy because the Hydrogen coders don't know what they are doing. Oxygen became a mess with code from earlier Android builds, outdated API's, API's that were up to date but not implemented according to basic Android standards and coding shortcuts designed to squash bugs that pop up rather than actually fix the underlying reasons the bugs keep popping up.

Oxygen needs bug fixes every month and frequently breaks apps from the Play Store because the coding in Oxygen strays so far from Android guidelines but keep referring to Oxygen being close to stock Android anyway.

Go to the official One Plus community site which is populated by One Plus customers who actually use Oxygen every day--there are thousands of posts every week from owners who don't know how to deal with the endless bugs in Oxygen.

Then there are the phones. One Plus does not make or design phones. All they do is rebrand a low mid range Oppo phone model and upgrade the CPU and RAM so they can claim flagship specs on paper--they take a cheap Chinese phone, upgrade a couple of components and more than double the price. You end up paying $600 for a phone with low end build quality.

Until the OP5 the markup on One Plus phones compared to the original Oppo model was low enough for One Plus phones to be a relative bargain but their phones have gone up way too much in price for that to be the case anymore. The steep price increase also coincided with the coding in Oxygen going completely to hell--the 3T was the last One Plus phone to launch before the original Oxygen programmers were fired.

One Plus also engages in an assortment of sleazy business practices. They solicit positive reviews in exchange for free phones and publish them on tech sites and other places without acknowledging that the supposedly unbiased reviews actually came from them.

They also post fake member comments on social media and tech sites to promote their own products and attack competitor products.

Still on 9.0.0.153, obviously Europe ??? lol
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] cfds:
That's nothing new...a common practice used by all of these tech companies to send "free samples" of their products to popular You tubers etc to get a "positive review" and more important free publicity. I learned my lesson with the Mate 20. I look at reviews of a particular phone model I would like to purchase and then go on forums to read the real problems.

Take the Mate 20 Pro for example...with a few exceptions all these you tube reviewers reporting the face unlock and fingerprint reader are fine while in real life they are far from working "fine". Maybe I have a defective unit but for a phone costing nearly 850€ depending where you get it I expect it to be working fine.

Huawei is on the same track like Samsung and Apple, the times they where affordable phones are over.

Going back on topic, it is a matter of time and Europe will get an update past the current .153 version. Beginning of January I received an OTA from Oreo to Pie on my Mate 10, thumbs up for Huawei on that! If now they get their **** together and sort the below standard software experience out on their flagships and get a decent fix on the face unlock/fingerprint reader as that would be the reason I get rid of the expensive paperweight called Mate 20 pro. Honestly, I should have resisted and stayed with my Mate 10, its has been performing solid but no, I got temped and told myself I needed an upgraded camera...
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] jadaress1:
Come on saying its a paper weight is a bit harsh lol. The fingerprint scanner can be hit or miss alot of the time. But actually the face unlock works for me most of the time and since I fitted one of them glass uv glue screen protectors the fingerprint scanner works alright now. I just re-enrolled my finger prints after installing and now it's fine. Works better than when I had the tpu screen protector.

I enjoy using this phone and believe I'm a phone junky. Other women don't understand why I'm always on a new phone every 3 to 4 months. I'm holding on to the Note 9 cause I'm hoping they'll be some good trade in offers for the S10 ?

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] cfds:
Just received an OTA on my Mate 10, that one is now on the January software patch while the Mate 20 is still on December. I have a glass UV screen protector on the way for the Mate 20, lets see how that goes as my display is littered with very tiny scratches - well it was that or forking out 850€ or plus for a brand new paperweight. I am sorry but face unlock working "most of the time"...can we not expect working always for a phone in this price range?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] jadaress1:
I didn't want to say 100 percent working, but for me when im face on with it as intended it works 99.9 percent of the time but that's just me. I can understand how it may not be like that for everyone. The updates are slow in the UK but saying that my Vodafone branded Note 9 hasn't had a update since November last year.

I've tried alot of phones and this does have a few quirks, im not really into emui but once tweaked it's alright.

Can’t commen5 on face unlock as never use it on my phone. The fingerprint scanner sucked until the .153 update where it got so much better. It’s still no where near as reliable as the other fingerprint scanners I’ve used though. Maybe works 80% of the time

On a side note I have an iPad Pro and use the face unlock. Reckon it works 8 out of 10 times so dunno how that compares.

Face unlock works pretty great, 9 out of 10 tbh.
