No, sadly not and many options are locked behind phone firmware updates.

I am working on adding a permanent notification showing the battery of the pods and the case.

This pop up shown on some official screenshots are a mystery. All the UI elements are there but it doesn't show up.

Well since today I got this toast showing me the battery once I open the box. That's it.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MirageBlader:
EDIT to the post above.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MirageBlader:
I found something interesting.

On a Chinese forum some people were talking about this pop up window showing battery of the pods and box.

And someone posted this screenshot. Saying it came with update 9.0.0.176 of his phone.

After looking into it, I can 100% confirm these text in the pop-up window are already translated and the UI is presented.

All we can do now, is wait for our phones to get the latest update.

Hi,

I want to purchase the Freebuds 2 Pro but I'm not used to chinese websites, are there recommended websites to order? Hopefully with a delivery method of maximum 1 week, don't want to wait for 2 months before receiving them...

Thanks, looking forward to trying out this app :)

OP

First, your English is great.

Second, thank you for your great work.

Third, I went to your profile to give a donation but don't see a PayPal name. Cam PM if better but want to donate.

Separately, if there was a silicone cover or hook to hold these closer into my ear canal I would be very grateful for any pointers.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MirageBlader:
First, thank you :)

Second, thank you again.

Third, I am really honored but please don't. I would have done it for myself anyway and just sharing it :) better spend it on a cover.

For the silicone to make them hold better, you can buy any on Amazon which are made for the Apple one. I attached a picture of mine. Really any will work since the sensors and microphones are on the same positions.

A cover is a bit more tricky since it's only available in China. I ordered one from AliExpress since they have multiple colors and designs. Still waiting since it takes up to 40 days to deliver it. Probably a buy on a bike from China to Germany...

But they are very cheap, mine costs 3€ and I saw some for 1-2€.

Don't buy the cover for the Apple earbuds. It won't fit. My girlfriend has the Apple earbuds and I tried the cover she use.

Hope I could help.

Why the hell I used "since" so often...

I just got my FreeBuds 2 and using them in the Netherlands. I also just updated the firmware with the app I downloaded in this forum.

I just called somebody using my FreeBuds 2 via my Oneplus 6T using Bluetooth but i got the feedback that the audio quality was not that great on the other side. Audio was slightly cutting in and out. Curious if other people using the FreeBuds 2 experience the same.

I have the white FreeBuds 2. Audio quality when listening to music is great. Nice bass too

Well firstly a wanted to know if is there any issue with the AI voiceprint recognition, because i wanted to buy them but in the description it sais that it only works with chinease. Its possible to change the language of this or it came from factory settings?

Secondly I had a problem trying the translated app because before using the app you have to agree the privacy terms but there isn't any agree button anywhere.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] izayasan:
Ok, just Updated my mate20pro from 9.0.0.169 to 9.0.0.182 and I can confirm that HWA is available. Also, many Bluetooth streaming options became available under developer options.

I don't see the toast notification about battery though.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] turt:
Nice to know! I'm hoping the update will come soon to my Mate 20 pro...

I just received my Freebuds 2 Pro, delivered in 4 days to Belgium :)

Update of the Freebuds 2 Pro to version 131 was successful at first attempt, was really a smooth process.

Thanks for the translated app :) :)

I have a question: the Google Assistant works fine with the headset (in French, my mother tongue configured in GA), but only when my screen is unlocked! If my Mate 20 pro is locked, it doesn't process the request.

Any idea how I can fix this? As a workaround, I added the Freebuds 2 Pro to the Google Smart Lock devices so this works, but of course then my smartphone is not locked...

Thanks :)

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MirageBlader:
My options for bone voice ID? HWA Options ist there? Do you get a pop-up showing the battery when you open the case? Sorry for all the questions?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] izayasan:
There are no options for bone voice ID yet. HWA options are available after the update, you can find them directly under the bluetooth settings of the headphones. Also, there are many options under developers settings that became available, for example, you can select different streaming rates under HWA (400KB/S, 500-560, 900 and something called adaptive binary velocity). You can also select the latency of the HWA audio (50-100 ms, 150-200ms and 300-400 ms).

Unfortunately, I don't see the pop-up showing the battery. I only have the notification icon showing the battery of the headphones (only 1 for both and I cannot see the battery of the case on the phone). I hope to see this pop-up in a further update.

If you have any other questions I'll gladly answer them. I can provide screenshots as well if you want (My setting are in Spanish though).
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MirageBlader:
That's a huge bummer. Thanks for all the informations.

Well then, I will continue my work on the notification mod.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] rakesh2002:
Why Freebuds 2 or flypods are the best in the market now? its because there is no TWA earbuds/pods that support even LDAC (closest being Sony WI-1000X but its not TWA)

but HWA is useless unless we have Hi-Res audio at 900 - 1,411 Kbps: that's the reason why some say that they feel no difference between HWA and SBC/AAC.

in fact Spotify's "very high" audio happens to be 320 Kbps based on my study in spotify forums. So it's useless for audiophiles.

I will be trying Tidal which promises to offer Lossless HiFi quality audio of up to 1,411 Kbps.

If you are a regular MP3 listener, better disable HWA and stick to SBC or AAC to extend pad battery life. Also you can disable call and contact sharing options in bluetooth setting to get more juice out of the pods.

I hope Huawei releases earpods with "Platinum" quality HWA codec support which supports 24 bits/96KHz/1,411 Kbps, current Freebuds 2 supports "Gold" quality HWA codec that supports up to 24 bits/48KHz/900 Kbps. Platinum earbud will perhaps be the first generation , and a disruptive, "Audiophile" quality earbud (first generation because of limited driver size and quality).

Issue with prototype?

Hey guys. I got hold om some of the Freebuds 2 before the release, and have used them for a couple of months now. They've got the standard 'not for sale' across the back.

I'm trying to use the app, and the freebuds connect immediately. However, every time I try to update, it remains stuck on 'checking cloud version'. Any workaround? I've tried to reset the buds numerous times, but to no avail.

Hi guys I just got my freebuds 2 yesterday and am trying to update the firmware. Currently im on 1.0.0.103 and it is telling me to update to the latest version. I keep trying to update and it keeps failing. I have tried all of the companion apps and all that happens is the % of update goes straight to 19% and then in the range of 25-39% and continues to fail. I have done this 100+ times. It never works. I have not passed the 50% mark yet. Please help!
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyron23:
Solved for those who are having the same issue. As soon as the process starts, press home so you see the progress in notification bar. It will go to 100% without failing. Only took me 400 tries to get it successful lol

Today I got my 187 update for my mate 20 pro. I confirm that HWA is now in the Bluetooth settings and also a new button to check for updates.

This makes the app completely useless for EMUI 9.0 user because all options from the app are now directly accessible.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Fafner76:
Not really. Don't know about you, but I had that "Check for updates" button on B153 as well, and it always failed at finding something new, even when my FB2 were at B102 and B121 had been out for a while (and was found instantly by the FB2 app). The answer has always been "there's no newer version".

At least you got B187, I'm still stuck to that stupid B153...

I just got my TWS i12 airpods a 28USD delivered en they can compete with my Huawei Freebuds 2

Why? Because of the integrated next song, previous song, volume up and volume down double click / triple click commands that I can use. Why is Huawei not offering this on their FreeBuds? Using Google assistant to go to the next song, previous song or turning my volume up and down does not work in practice. The TWS earbuds now became my default headset.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] brownbear:
The FreeBuds 2 Pro do NOT offer these features like double tapping, triple tapping for next song, previous song, volume up and down. You can only pause and play music. Unless you use Google assistant to say 'next song, previous song' etc.

Disconnecting after firmware update

Hi,

After many tries I was able to update the Freebuds 2 pro firmware using this app. However, the freebuds 2 pro now disconnect or just shutoff by themselves while in my ear after being idle. This never happened before the firmware update. I wish there was a way to downgrade but I highly doubt it. I should've waited for the official app =\
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MirageBlader:
Not with the Freebuds 2 Pro, works all good without Google. Just change langue in settings to English.

This is really weird. What firmware is installed now? Did you tried a factory reset of the Freebuds?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] mabco:
Yes. That's the first thing I did is hold the button until it factory reset. I have it paired to a Mate 20 pro. I don't remember the number of the firmware but it has to be the same latest firmware as everyone else.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] MirageBlader:
That's the latest.

I've got the Huawei Mate 20 Pro (from UK) LYA-L09, build 187, EMUI 9.0.0

Very interested in the Freebuds 2 PRO.

Am I right in thinking there's no compatibility issues? between the Chinese Freebuds 2 pro and the UK Mate 20 Pro? I read that you have your voice commands working for English language too? Is that standard or do I have do download one of your apps to enable that?

That's pretty much all I need to know before I purchase, sorry if I'm asking you to repeat anything here, like I said I'm not all the clued up on these things.

There are no compatibility issues. Bone Voice ID is not available on my Chilean Mate 20pro (hope they implement it in the future).

2 months ago I got some brand new defective honor flypods pro that I now sent back and got refund:

-left pod was emiting a 'blank' sound which was far too lound and really annoying. HWA made this blank sound 'wavy' it was coming and going with rythm.

I believed it was in-mic related as on PC, when I totaly disabled the flypods' mic on windows' bluetooth settings, this annoying blank sound finally disapears...

But this can't be done on huawei/honor devices...

So since I buyed apple airpods and I noticed they were with NOT GOOD AUDIO on android because AAC codecs only...

So far only I only found one other user who had this problem :
