Does anyone know how the update process actually work?

My guess would be that there are a couple of different domains with different states of the latest updates. Each phone is bound to one of those update domains and checks for the latest updates there.

If thats really the case, wouldn't it possible to set a custom DNS which resolves the bound domain to one with newer updates?

I could be completely wrong but since there are different domains for updates (f.e. http://update.dbankcdn.com/ and http://update.hicloud.com) i figured it could be the case.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] EMF:
It is bound to the locale version of the phone, e.g. if you buy a phone released for EU you will get updates for the EU model. You won't start to get updates targeted for the Chinese model if you travel to China.

You can check the model and locale in about phone, e.g. LYA-L29 and C432.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] BlackTSQ:
Yeah, i get that. But is the server actually checking what locale you have? :confused:
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kps@2019:
Here you go.. this is my version of update I received three days back... :) It's not in the changelog as you can see on the main XDA developers page under news section posted this morning but yeah now it supports HDR in my phone ?

[MENTION=9697765]kps@2019[/MENTION] I'm on 153 version and also show me HDR in Netflix, just like in your screenshot.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kps@2019:
I guess different regional updates have something different. Some might get it now and some get it a bit later in next one..

Also, Build number is different for every region and so is the update frequency..

I wonder how they manage so many update builds and know what goes where .. #CuriousBoy ??:D
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] EMF:
Yes, it does.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonathan-H:
I have both of these on .153 in Netflix....
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MirageBlader:
Now that you said it I checked the punisher and it says HDR. I could swear it wasn't there a few days ago.

Thanks for the info.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kps@2019:
Hey, just to clarify the situation here.. some content on Netflix have HD content and new series or movies are in HDR

So both are equally support with widevine L1 support for better quality encode . ? Hope this helps

Still on 9.0.0.153 here in Sweden :-/

Hmm...

Here in Sweden we are still on 9.0.0.153... and still awaits for the much anticipated camera update 9.0.0.171 which is going to be updated here at the end of January according to Huawei Sweden when i talked to them. :rolleyes:

I sincerely hope that the 9.0.0.171 update comes before the 9.0.0.183 update here in Sweden - because both updates are needed, especially for us camera enthusiasts. :fingers-crossed:

Best Regards

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MirageBlader:
I think it will be straight up to 183. It would make more sense but I really hope your right. If Schweden gets it at the end of January, Germany should too.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Nikki1337:

I got mine from jb hi fi in Australia and I dont have this update :(

---------- Post added at 07:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 PM ----------

Can you explain how to do this? Also can I download update and update then put it back to Australia?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kps@2019:
Hey mate!! Unfortunately I bought my device from India and the update firmware I have is being rolled out in India and I set the VPN to India to get the update... Sorry man

If you bought it from another country and you know that update is being rolled out currently then procedure is as follows

1. Download turbo VPN or any other vpn service and set it to country of purchase ( only works if you are not in the country of purchase)

2. Go to settings > system > system update and check for new update.

If lucky you'll see the update.

But I'd bought from Australia, then I hope they push it out soon enough for Australia as well ?

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] isko01:
Ok I have M20P and I know what is Macro mod. Bit in this new update they bring Suoer Macro Mode. So is there something new or same like before?

P. S. Photo from the lab? :) where are you work?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kps@2019:
They actually refined the macro mode in this and named it super macro considering that it can now come much clos t to the subject. However it is still a bit buggy and takes time to recognise the subject bis closer but we might get a fix in future updates...

P.S. I'm a molecular biologist by profession and a scientist. ? [Not bragging]
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] br3tty:
Must pick up that I'm in another country then, but I've received this update before others in Australia which is odd.

Someone said somewhere to try using a VPN and change your location, then see if you get an update.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] CloseCoder:
Just tried that method last night and it didn't find the 183 update. Changed the location to Australia via VPN but nada. Currently on 171 on my C636
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sany:
No update here

I am from UAE yet no update. I am still on 9.0.0.171.

Guess they've stalled it to include more update like 4K video 60 FPS etc., ;)
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sany:
This is not new, they have only added super macro as a new mode and it was always called 'Super Macro'. Dont think they've modified anything beyond that.

They must also consider bringing HDR mode in the main camera interface instead of going into 'more' to switch this on and off.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Tewwyble:
Just updated to 183. Fixed the navigation issue when using 3rd party launcher. No longer need to use Fluid NG as the task manager animation not jerky anymore and also selecting left or right app in task manager launches the app instead of jumping back to home. :D :good:
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sany:
That's not a solution, how can you enable it manually? if the AI couldn't detect the scene properly as is the case at times. Good to debate but not practical.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gamekill:
I also remember Super Macro being activated sometimes, before this update.

I think the differences now are two:

- you do not need it to be "AI recognized/activated";

- you can use 3X zoom while in Super Macro and it really does present even a bit MORE detail, it is impressive really. I don't think you could use 3x Super Macro before this update. But I am not sure.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] pogi.paul0119:
Super macro 3x zoom.. fukn amazing..
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] shethsa:
Actually it is the same super macro mode available when AI mode is on. Now even with AI off (which I personally prefer) super macro shows up as an option under the 'more' menu in the camera mode.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gamekill:
Yes it is really impressive, almost feels like carrying a microscope around.

We can now see how dusty and imperfect everything around us really is!

Hi guys, i Have a Mate 20 Pro purchased from Vodafone AU. After listening to a guy on another forum i used the FH method and updated to the Global .187 firmware. Ever since this has broke Google pay sayign something like This phone has been modified etc. I have since tried to go back to the previous firmware with no success. My original model is LYA-L09 however after the update the build number has changed to LYA-L29. And I cant seem to go back. Can someone help me revert the phone back to original L09 firmware. Or does anyone know if this is possible? The Phone works fine and is faster than previous build but Google pay doesnt work and I suspect its due to the CTS Profile Mismatch error

Possibly an erecovery might drop you back to previous firmware... Power off phone then power on holding volume up key with usb cable plugged into your phone and pc.. Then follow the prompts on phone
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rhath127:
thanks ubersapian - however i have already tried this - it downloads the firmware (the original vau .146 i think) but when it comes time to install it fails. I am not sure if the CTS profile mismatch is causing it to fail or if its something else.

The worse part is I am unable to find the vau .147 firmware anywhere so i dont know how id be able to manual install if thats an option
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ubersapian:
What is the C number for Vodafone and I can have a look for you (ie optus is c34)?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gm007:
You can wait till the firmware get approved by huawei after that google pay will work so don't do anything.

That happen always when a new firmware is available but not approved to be installed.

If you open google play store settings you will see that ur Phone is not certified and that's normal.

All you have to do is wait a week or 2.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] xploreredfusion:
Is your phone dual sim now?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ubersapian:
Another thing to try is to perhaps flash an lya-l09 cust and preload to your phone via SD method to convert it back from lya-l29 and then try erecovery again. Because at a guess erecovery might be failing Because of a clash between the lya-29 cust data loaded onto your phone via FH method and the OEM factory info which would be voda L09 branding.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rhath127:
hey mate, i think it was c36 something but not 100% sure as in the 'about' screen the build number has changed to to lya-l29 c636e10

No my phone is still single sim however build number reflects L29 - but model number reflect L09.

[MENTION=4115953]gm007[/MENTION] Well i was on .187 for 3 weeks and at the end still did not work. I then downgrade via FH method to firmware .171 thinking the older firmware would be approved already.

How would i go about doing this - "Another thing to try is to perhaps flash an lya-l09 cust and preload to your phone via SD method to convert it back from lya-l29 "
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rhath127:
hey mate i went into erecovery and it downloaded the firmware but failed to install. I did manage to get details of the firmware and C #. 9.0.0.149 C346E11R1P16 which should be vodafone. I think once voda release a .171 firmware i can overwrite this global .171 until then i cant downgrade to .14x
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ubersapian:
I can't guarantee this will work as I'm L29 but you can try flashing the two optus branded files from the link below and hopefully should get you back enough to L09 to be able to erecover.

1. Place the two files in a folder called "dload" on a usb stick.

2. Plug the stick into your phone via OTG cable

3. With power off press VOL UP + VOL Down + POWER.. This will force phone into SD recovery mode and with luck update the cust/preload files on your phone.

4. IF this works then try erecover process.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Darkat70:
What firmware version are the optus files please?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ubersapian:
The zip files come from the 9.0.0.108 build but pretty sure the cust/preload zips are generic across all version builds. I have used L29 C636 cust/preload files across multiple versions on my phone.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MirageBlader:
I guess, I won't see the update for a while. I got the same bug I had on my mediapad. I can't do erecovery, it says it can't verify package.

Also it shows no changeling from the previous update. I didn't done any modifications on the system.

My mediapad had the same issue and after a few months I plug it on the PC and used hisuite and was able to update via hisuite. Afterwards it got updates normally via OTA.

My friend with the same phone and provider already got the update.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Fafner76:
I wouldn't worry. My european Mate 20 Pro never got updated using recovery or other not official ways, but still no B187 here. It always takes a couple of weeks between the first ones reporting having got it and me actually getting it, I guess I'm not lucky with the IMEI lottery :\

As far as I know, same provider doesn't necessarily mean getting the update at the very same time, it's all about IMEI.

But hey! Watch GT updates do roll out much quicker, how could I live so far without those ugly, useless newly added japan-styled background images? :\
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MirageBlader:
Today I was able to do a erecovery. It went through and showed me it was successful.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] Arkangel786:
Hi all,

I'm new to Xiaomi but not new to android. I've had the Mi Mix 3 for a couple of weeks now and I have to say, I'm having a love hate relationship with MIUI. I absolutely love the gestures but other things/issue are really starting to grate on me!

One of the things that's really annoying me is the dual WhatsApp 'permission denied' error.

I have dual WhatsApp installed and every possible permission has been enabled. Yet when I click on the dual WhatsApp icon in the app drawer (I have Nova Launcher installed) it states 'permission denied'.

However.........when I click on the normal WhatsApp icon, it gives me a choice of either launching my 'original' WhatsApp or the dual one. If I launch the dual WhatsApp from here, it starts up fine.

My question is...........why? Why are there two icons for the same app and why doesn't one of them work??

I've attached pictures to hopefully illustrate what I'm trying to say.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] Sidamp:
So i have Dasaita unit for Outlander, Android 8.0 PX5 8-core, 4gb Ram, 32Gb Rom, 8"

My question is does anyone else have managed to some how change car settings throw this device, settings, like light, wipers sensitivity, door locks, folding mirrors etc.? Or is there any other option-throw ODB2? Those settings are available in original unit.

And my second question is, can I adjust rear camera guidelines, because lines what i have with factory camera to dasaita unit are off. Have gone throw all reversing settings and no options found. In the settings there are option to see also active guidelines but it is always curved to one side and not moving as i turn my wheel.

Thanks!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Rawb1:
I haven't done this myself, I am actually looking at installing a similar device in my outlander y14, but I understand with a OBD2 Bluetooth device and the mitsubishi Phev app installed on the head unit you can access the car functions... I'm not sure the mitsu app works on android 9 though.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Alexandru.nae:
Hi, did you manage to fix it ? I have the same issue here, with Outlander 2014 and PX6. The seller is responding very slow...

Thanks.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Sidamp:
No unfortunately not. But what I noticed is that I'm having Control settings app on my head unit and it have exactly the needed settings in it, problem is that those are greyed out or when touching only sound will heard but can not change anything. The app itself is coming from CAN bus. I didn't install it myself. I have choose canbus nr. 57 for Outlander, if I change it to 111 (another canbus for Mitsubishi) then the app disappears. So there is something that looks promising, but it does not work. Might be that it needs some more steps to do in Factory settings (in canbus and under other), there are some type0,1,2,3 that can be changed. Tested those also, but changing under other type 3 it messed up my screen, it was in vertical, managed to fix it with attached mouse and keyboard.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Alexandru.nae:
I managed to fix it. Long story short, they are executing the operation but they are not refreshing the Status of the command. You need to move the image to make a refresh. After you quit the app, the executed commands remain, but no feedback.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Sidamp:
I will try it, how You move image, holding and moving? I could not change slide buttons or add some tick to any checkbox.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Alexandru.nae:
Yep, press and hold the screen, move up or down the image untill the settings changed disappear, and the bring it back.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Alexandru.nae:
P.S. my canbus is MT SS 07 and I am runing the latest firmware on the unit.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Sidamp:
Might be then I habe some other canbus version/firmware. Pressing and holding the screen change anything. But thaks for comments!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Sidamp:
Btw what is your canbus settings( type1,2 or 3?

I install SPB Mobile Shell to play around with. One of the options is to set an appearence color. I set black, and I really like the theme as it shows on HTC Home (background on the today screen, colors of bars, etc).

The thing is, I don't want to have to have SPB mobile shell installed just to be able to set a theme. And if I uninstall SPB, the theme reverts to what I had selected before. Is there any way to create a TSK from the current background and color settings on the phone? Or somehow "extract" the tsk from the SPB Mobile shell files? All I want is the background image on the today screen and the color settings.
