My biggest issue with op is the dire cameras. 5 and 6 and the T were shocking and they kept promising fixes. Even using gcam mod etc they were barely passable photos
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] josdehaes:
With gcam the 7t is taking stellar photos.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] forever_lol:
Pics on my op7t were all right in good lighting conditions, otherwise i would call them mediocre at best, worse than those taken with p20 pro. Video recording (or maybe stabilisation) was imo better on op though.

Camera is not that bad at all, but people don't choose op for its cam. When you have kids and take a lot of pics of your family it may be simply not good enough.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] josdehaes:
We have twin toddlers so picture quality was very important. After first few pictures with oos camera app, quality was so bad I wanted to send back the device. With gcam, pictures are better than p20 pro I think. And now with custom ROMs available I feel like I have it all
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] forever_lol:
It's great to hear that there's still some good development that makes a difference for our handsets here on xda! I returned mine after a week so I didn't have chance to check all.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
I tried to take pictures and videos at a gig, and a motorsports event. Of possibly 200+.....maybe 10 were even not terrible on my op5. That was with gcam. The low light was hideous, and fast moving shots just came out on big blur of colour.

To be fair might not be the selling point of one plus BUT given the quality of all their competitors you'd think they could do much better. That's why they lost me as a customer. Zero improvement in 18 months
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] josdehaes:
7t is not 5t ;). The sensors in most phones are the same Sony modules these days. The difference is in the software processing. That's why gcam takes so much better pictures. Moving objects will stay challenging for smartphone cameras. That's why sport photographers have these big lenses ?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
Funnily enough exactly what users on op forums said until I posted identical shots from pixel 3a, s8 and my op5 from the events lol. Yes, price difference etc but fact remains that the camera and way they hide things is unforgivable marketing lies and word play.

I know the sensors, and software/post processing etc, fact still remains that even with gcam results were grainy and poorly lit. anyway.........bit off topic here lol
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] josdehaes:
Yes, OT, but to prove my point, see below pictures, the boy was taken with OOS camera app, the girl with gcam, both in good light.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
But now try low light. And you can still see the grain/blur/oil paint effect if you zoom in slightly on any area with varied contrast eg boys eyes or socks. Girls jumper the pattern is not clear. From afar they look good, but any closer view shows where the fall down. Just one plus image filesizes tell you they are low quality images
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I was going to but the 8 is not far away and I'm starting a new job soon so I wouldn't commit right now.. plus my contract is up soon too.

Strange the device one hated the most is the one I've kept longer than any other..

And luck would have it..

I checked for updates today and this came through..

Soon as I deleted the beta app and health.

Weird..
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] josdehaes:
Ah, these are not the full resolution images I notice :-/. Anyway, I'm happy with the result. You're free to disagree, get a pixel 4a ;)
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
345 is smoother. The transition between the launcher and the Google feed is smoother than before using lawn chair.

370 advertised straight away, still smooth but no 10 advertised
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
I'll grin and bare the P20 update misery for now as I genuinely can't fault the handset itself just the niggle of updates. Many ppl use them and don't even worry about it. Hell China already have all my data anyway so how much worse can it get [emoji23]
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
Damn. I checked when saw this. Still naff all for me
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
For the longest time I had the same issue mate.

I deleted the beta app, then health, then checked on the off chance
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
Don't have the beta app. No idea why the health app would affect anything
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
It absolutely shouldn't, I'm just telling you what I did, furthermore my wifes phone has just got 345 offered, hers is a L09 c782 so it is definitely being pushed by Huawei now..

It should be coming your way soon, just hold fire for a while it'll come.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
It seems even ff doesn't want me to update now, constant failed package info. Can't be damned rooting lol

How do I find out what the latest firmware is for my region? sometime ago i tried to upgrade to .328 from firmware finder but it's been failed Safetynet ever since and i'm not sure what I can do to fix it.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] titi66200:
Version 371 installed and rooted with magisk version 20.3.(20202). The camera switches to version 335.

Finally managing to force it via nodded hisuite instead of erecovery [emoji16]
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andrei80:
For my region, it went from the first 9.1 311 to 32x, then 345,370 and 371 now. 311 was forced via modded Hisuite, then ota. Romania
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
Did dload to 311,ota straight away to 328,nothing since. Nodded hisuite straight to 371 after some fiddling
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TitoDKM:
371 here too, Spain
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I've always had updates late, guessing 371 is a small update with no visual alteration.

Security update right??
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
Security updates. Camera update. And I think a change to the "no update available" message when ya try update lol
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Johny181:
Me too in CzechRepublic.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] leomsguerra:
Huawei seems to be waking up. After 4 months without updates I received 3 in 1 week .. 9.1.0.345 9.1.0.370 and yesterday at 9.1.0.371. And 9.1.0.380 with the January patch seems to be on its way.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
Wouldn't get too excited. Mine did that when first got it. Nothing for months. Then 2 updates one after another then was stuck on same crap for 5 months again. Its like they have a restricted data plan and have to wait until the following month to play catch up
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] andrei80:
Yup, get a S8. My daughter's was on August patch until yesterday, when it got November. Quit moaning, they are just security patches
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
The issue most people have is it's all updates. 9.0, 9.1 were both the same, no doubt 10 will be too. And Huawei promised monthly updates. Even sim free aren't getting them
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
They're on dial up mate, dodgy

I've only got to get to April and this turd is getting sold.

Tell me when u found one vendor that has keep the promises for update it is the same **** by all vendors this political bull**** run the company's and we people just wait what they gonna do or say. we doesn't want change until we are competing which phone or technology is best there is no best only what pass for your wishes camera or speed etc... this or that we can only comment and they will do to end with political bull****

Become a member of the world famous XDA
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Oneplus / pixel, both have superb update times, none are as awful as Huawei, plus the GPU in the Huawei is woeful.

In regards to it's eco system and broken and splintered device tree Huawei stands alone im afraid.

Each of the aspects of what makes a smart phone a device can be measured , ie: cameras , CPU / GPU, memory, RAM, unlock ability etc.

No two devices are the same, choice is always yours but they are certainly comparable.

"Become a member of the world famous XDA"

?????

YEA it is world famous and for good reason , the innovation, persistence and hard work that's gone into android development is quite simply staggering, XDA / villain / android police / android forums have all helped shape qn operating system which has overcome a giant (apple) in just over a decade, not only that but it's been the creation of a new operating system, something many have tried before and since and failed at, i think that is something to be deemed "famous" worthy.

Even older Pixels are not getting monthly updates nowdays. And they are "made by Google".

Oh, you clearly never had a Samsung or Sony device then. Let alone Xiaomi and other cheaper Chinese vendors.

P.S. .371 landed in Israel this morning too.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
Most devices are only supported for 2 years on the monthly front and they don't hide that. After that it's luck and demand if they keep it up. So yeah older devices might fall behind. They can't support all devices indefinitely

Latest FW for C432 region CLT-L29 9.1.0.371(C432E8R1P11)

You obviously pushed the wrong firmware region Version.

But it's the same to do a reset on phone. instead of clear to factory defaults it boots to rooted mode. that works on .328 but I will try anyway. thanks
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blufreak:
No, I'm c432, pushed lgrp2. It's not the region that's wrong, the different numbers are variant/feature level relating to networks. Just shows how bad the networks affect updates. But it should surely detect I have same version number and more up to date security and not offer the update. Bloody huawei
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sarry.rondo:
Same happened to me a few days ago.

I had .371 C432E5R1P9 with December patch.

I received the .371 which had October security patch and C432E8R1P11 (it contained some network stability & VoLTE settings also).

I did the update and the security remained December 2019.

See if after updating, it remains December for you too...

Just be patient, it's on your way, max 2-3 months time. You are not missing anything, Android 10 is just a polished version of Android 9 with many changes under the hood. Just sit back and relax, spend some quality time with your family, and let the phone aside.

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Luis2k33-XDA:
No
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] firewaterfan:
Yeah - have to wonder if Huawei changed their filenames on purpose just to make it harder for guys like MT to figure out which firmware is which and regain control over their releases. Although I did notice a new .213 posted on the first that is listed as L04CC792 so maybe these other ones are just some kind of anomaly.

Will just have to wait and see how this plays out.

Okay so at least we know what one of them is :p. Incidentally .203 was released Jan 31 so that's over a month behind.

Do you have any references that show that any other regions (besides C432) received the .203 update?

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mushtafa:

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sarry.rondo:
Has anyone tried this method?

https://www.getdroidtips.com/how-to-use-huawei-smartphone-multi-download-tool/

First of all, Download and extract the Huawei smartphone Multi Download Tool on your computer.

Now, Download and Install the Huawei Handset Product Line Driver, Huawei USB Driver, Qualcomm USB Driver, on your PC.

Launch the QPBLFBML01.exe file to open the Huawei Multi-Download Tool.

Next, you will see the XML firmware file upload option.

Click on the Browse button (three-dot icon) and it will ask for the password.

Don’t put anything, just leave it blank and click on the Set button.

Now, select the .xml firmware file for your device and click on Open.

Then click on the Next button.

You will see the installation progress page. Connect your device via a USB cable with the Fastboot or Download Mode.

Next, click on the Scan&Download button to start flashing the stock firmware.

It will automatically detect the Fastboot device and will take some time to install it.

Once flashing done, restart your device.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] donjamal:
maybe fastboot method? unzip the update.app and flash with faatboot?
