It's obviously a question, I have no reason to advertise their services.

I, like most on this site, always like to have the latest and greatest Rom available and when I saw their tweet, I got really interested in what's new but can't see the changelog anywhere.

Like I said, I'm updating tomorrow morning but by your response, maybe I should keep the feedback to myself.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] n1tro:
If it is a question, maybe it belongs in the Questions section. Guides, News, & Discussion is more for posting a public link of say the latest rom (which would sit in Roms & Development) while listing out what the new features are and discussing those said features.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] lightning413:
You're right, I probably should have posted in the question section.

Can a Mod please move the post to Questions?

Thanks
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] n1tro:
Please do list what you see as different when you do install the rom. I'm liking how frequent the updates are.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
Ok
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] antiochasylum:
I'll get an update tonight and try to grab the changelog.

As well as the ramdisk from .184 for updated root.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] ilovepj:
Why would you pay soneone to get something that ahould free. It's highly suspicious anyway that XDA is shilling their services . The new Rom is already available via ota, if not then just wait a little bit.

XDA and funky Huawei could easily just leak the tools server side tools and roms, make everything public as it's supposed to be.. but instead they choose ......

I wouldn't be surprised if some mod ban me for speaking the truth ..
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] antiochasylum:
Yep.

Misc section. The only. 184 available for EVR
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] ilovepj:
Why are you prompting such a paid service that goes against all principles of the android open community? Not meant as an insult, just a legitimate question.

They ask 66 USD for unlock codes that can be obtained 75% cheaper for example, how fair is that to the community? Or charge money for an update that should be free. It's 2019 com on bro.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] antiochasylum:
I didn't pay for the unlock code from them. I paid 22$ for that. It's 55USD for an unlock code for me from Funky.

Updates should be free. Yes. But when I'm working with 3 other guys trying to get the AL00 to as close to a L29 as possible I update, and provide files, libs and props. So the credits come for me at a fraction of the cost.

I have even stated in telegram, that once credits run out, I will not buy anymore

[MENTION=4572798]duraaraa[/MENTION] - EVR-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.184 is showing getting package info failed on my EVR-L29. Is this the correct file? Have DNS set and have used Funky before, so not sure what the issue is.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] lightning413:
Update worked for me but there's no info in the changelog and the only changes I've noticed so far are the Security Patch is January 1, 2019 and the camera has a Super Macro option.

The biggest issue for me so far is that although the update itself didn't factory reset the phone, the bootloader got locked during the update so I had to unlock it again which prompted a factory reset.

I had to use the unlock code again so I'm glad I saved it.

Also, have not been able to install the patched recovery_ramdisk yet. Getting an error when trying to boot holding Vol+.

Can't say it's been the smoothest update and had I known of the issues, I wouldn't have done it
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] saironjay:
I've seen this news from one telegram channel that update with January security patch locks the bootloader forever and blocks downgrading to older firmware. How true is that??
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] antiochasylum:
Do you have the patched .184 ramdisk? Or are you using an old/generic one?

---------- Post added at 04:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:58 PM ----------

I can still unlock my bootloader. It doesn't lock it down forever.

However doing an update this way does relock the bootloader. Anytime you do a system recovery your bootloader locks. No exception.

It might very well remove the ability to downgrade. But I have never understood the want to downgrade. I have never done it, nor do I suggest/advise it.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] lightning413:
UPDATE

I must have been doing something when trying to flash the patched recovery_ramdisk. All is well.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] lightning413:

You need to use the HiSuite method, not the eRecovery method.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] filip_pine:
Ohh mate, let me tell you a short story, although it would be off-topic, but i'm gonna tell it to you . In the past, i use to update my LETV Le Max X900 on and on... but you see, some of the updates was not what it will always suit your user needs, you know...

After seeing the latest Oficial Updates add lag and lots of bloatware that i don't need and futures i don't use them at all, i was downgrade to 5.18s Stable.... which i find it the fastest Update, with no lag, smooth transition, great camera options for what i need etc..

Just like you said, but in a different way, i never understand why this crazy party after the latest updates.... If is not broken, don't try to fix it they say...

At least, this is me :) Cheers.

OnTopic : I'm still on 175 EVR-AL00...

What is with all this rush about getting the latest Update ? Just wait until Huawei Officialy push them to our devices...
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] frcraig:
I successfully updated the firmware for my EVR-L29 to 9.0.0.184 (with a funkyhuawei membership) but when I opened HiSuite tonight on my desktop computer to transfer some music files to my phone it prompted me to install "new device firmware 9.0.0.172" which I didn't do, but I'm just curious why it would prompt me to 'downgrade'?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
I'd love to see your HiSuite logs, but my best guess is that it's either some kind of bug with Huawei's update server, or that you're still logged into FunkyHuawei... sometimes FunkyHuawei will show the wrong version number in the system update function.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] hattrickho:
Just wanna ask some dumb questions.

How did Funkeyhuawei get the latest update before the official come out?

Why do you have to pay for the update if it is going to be free?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] CCJ22:
EXACTLY! why pay for this update when it's free from Huawei?

Is it because some will not get the OTA because they're in the states?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] antiochasylum:
Since this seems to be a question everyone is asking. Here is your answer.

(Not calling you out [MENTION=4130380]CCJ22[/MENTION], however xda app don't let me multiquote anyone else)

However, people choose to pay for what they want. Why do people buy 5$ Starbucks drinks ever day. Why do people spend 35000$ on a car? Because they want to.

See my answer below.

Updates should be free. Yes. But when I'm working with 3 other guys trying to get the AL00 to as close to a L29 as possible I update, and provide files, libs and props. So the credits come for me at a fraction of the cost.

I have even stated in telegram, that once credits run out, I will not buy anymore

I'm asking mods to close this thread, as this is supposed to be about 184. Not why do you pay for it.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] BigDisplay:
This question is even more interesting? If any one have the answer for this.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] ilovepj:
Even a more interesting question is this. How morally corrupt is it to charge users money for software that is supposed to be free.. it's milking out the open android community, and making money on the backs of the manufacturer.

Not to mention that is totally rediclous to pay money for an update..
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Goronok:
Wish people would stay on topic. Some of us have legitimate questions inline with the thread subject.

I'm trying to update my 20x to .184 using the HiSuite method. It gets to the point where it needs to install the ROM on the phone, but always fails. I noticed that in the Documents>HiSuite> ROM folder, HiSuite is still downloading a .172 ROM. Wonder if it's still connecting to Huawei's servers. I have uninstalled and re-installed 9.0.2.301 several times, installed FHHiSuiteInstaller (as admin) several times, and I'm using the original Huawei cable. FH site also says 9.0.0.184 ROM is selected.

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] ajsmsg78:
Huawei will release 184 soon probably in a week or two. I agree paying for an update is BS, if you don't want to pay just wait for the OTA. Although pretty soon we'll all have an option to pay to breathe air @ 99 cents per breath.:D
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] n1tro:
Maybe support for installing an unreleased update done through an unofficial method should be reserved for the one charging the money for the early access? It's a free world and people should be able to charge for whatever someone else is willing to pay but perhaps to justify the ? the detailed support should be posted here to show how "membership" has its privileges.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Ryan Mixed:
What's the point of custom ROMs when we already have OOS I mean it's customizable, speedy has fast update like seriously what's the point though sacrificing features like fingerprint, etc sorry if this offended some of you just asking.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] void4ever:
I'm sure you'll get a lot of different answers because there is no ONE answer.

First and foremost people here on XDA just love to play with things! Flashoholics if you will! But if your looking for more then that:

Support for a phone long past it's EoL. I'm fairly certain Lineage is still updating for OnePlus 1, among the other plethora of devices, and thats just 1 rom.

Targeted feature sets: Some people will build a rom based on specific feature sets, like for example going full audiophile. Building in all kinds of tools and mods geared toward that. It's far easier to pick up your favorite rom from a like minded community that has everything you want built in than to do it all yourself.

Those would be 2 of the largest reasons imo. As far as your comment on no fingerprint with a custom rom, that maybe true "right now", but once 1+ releases the source code every custom rom for this device will have that feature working. So really it's a none issue, or more will be a none issue in the future. Just my 2 cents
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Dopamin3:
OOS is okay, but I much prefer an AOSP looking ROM (like Havoc OS) or whatever. Way too many reasons to even list.

Custom roms will have way more features but fingerprint is not working now. Once they get FP working I'm flashing with no hesitation. I've ran roms on my last devices - OnePlus 3T and Motorola Nexus 6 and enjoyed the experience much more than stock. You seem to think more things other than FP aren't working but in my research that is the only thing. Maybe the camera optimization is a little better on OOS but I just take basic pictures so that never bothered me.

Let's flip the question around and why would you come on XDA and ask such a question? That's like being on a forum dedicated to car modifications and then you come in and ask why would you do that to your car when stock works fine?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Ryan Mixed:
Ehhh did I write this????
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] nirur:
Got my Mi Max 3 in December. Registered in Xiamoi, waited for 360 hours to get the bootloader unlocked. Then rooted it, installed TWRP, upgraded to EU pie beta rom and finally upgraded to Havoc 2.0 phh-treble Pie rom .

The biggest problem from me is that VoLTE does not work. Have been trying to fix for past 10 days. Though I have not fully succeeded, my findings are as follows:

1. VoLTE/VoWifi related options itself have to be enabled on the UI.

For this I edited the files (use es explorer) /System/build.prop

persist.dbg.ims_volte_enable=1

persist.dbg.volte_avail_ovr=1

persist.dbg.vt_avail_ovr=1

persist.dbg.wfc_avail_ovr=1

persist.radio.rat_on=combine

persist.radio.data_ltd_sys_ind=1

persist.radio.data_con_rprt=1

persist.radio.calls.on.ims=1

persist.sys.cust.lte_config=true

persist.dbg.volte_avail_ovr=1

persist.dbg.ims_volte_enable=1

persist.radio.volte.dan_support=true

persist.data.iwlan=1

persist.data.iwlan.enable=true

persist.data.iwlan.ipsec.ap=1

persist.radio.calls.on.ims=1

persist.radio.data_con_rprt=1

persist.dbg.vt_avail_ovr=1

/Vendor/default.prop

persist.dbg.ims_volte_enable=1

persist.radio.videopause.mode=1

persist.data.iwlan.enable=true

2. Run ims service, by installing ims.apk file.

3. Checked with service provider that the APNs are correct. I am on Airtel.

4. Swapped my sim with another sim. VoLTE did not work. So the problem is with the device.

5. The current status is that the ims service is not running. See the screenshot.

To summaries, one has to fix three aspects to get VoLTE/VoWfi:

1. From service provider -> Ensure correct setting are present.

2. At user interface level -> By editing the prop file.

3. IMS registration -> This is still not working. The mbn needs to support the service provider.

Has anyone managed to fix this? For me no VoLTE is a deal breaker and if it does not get enabled, I will shift to EU ROM. I am on 4G and when I receive/make calls, the network switches back to 3G. This network switching has an annoying lag. :crying:
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] MrColdbird:
There's another issue you need to address.

GSIs use CAF's VoLTE implementation afaik which (again... just from what I read) isn't compatible with Qualcomm's proprietary implementation.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] nirur:
I moved to Xiaomi.eu rom. Did the same setup listed above. Did not see VoLTE.

Inserted Jio sim and VoLTE started working!

I asked Airtel and they categorically refused to give me VoLTE. Folks, also please check that your service provider has enabled VoLTE.

I have a rooted Wondermedia WM8880 tablet, 512mb ram, 4gb storage, android 4.2.2

Just one more thing if i install a OS and fails then if i hard reset my device will i get my android device back

Looking for quick response :)

[General Questions and Answers] scroll-lock:
Well if it fails installing another rom I don't know if your stock rom would remain intact, so a hard reset would not help you. Flashing stock rom would, but its not always guaranteed.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
A device with that hardware is going to be laggy no matter what you do.

Also, android isn't like PC, you can't just install whatever OS you want.

It is "possible" to install linux on android devices, but thr method to do so is different depending on the device.

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackCat1969:
Hi hope someone can advise as I'm loosing the will to live :(

I've a mate 8 NXT-L29C636 which I believe is asia region although I've from the UK

I was running stock android 6 with EMUI 4.0

When I ask it to check for any update, it always came back with no updates.

I saw plenty of threads saying they had updated to android 7 and 8 and how they done it.

So I downloaded Firmware Finder from Google play and without too much difficulty managed to start installing firmware. That's when my problems started :(

This was two weeks ago and I've been spending 100+ hours trying to recover.

I think it failed a 5% or something and since then my phone will not boot properly.

I can only fastboot it and sometimes to erecovery and EMUI to wipe/factory reset

Searching forums it seems DC Phoenix was the only software that could help so I bought it.

So far I've tried flashing firmware from DC-Unlocker site in standard more but all goes ok with success for all the partitions but it requires the phone to put into upgrade mode, something my phone never does and I can't force it.

So that leaves me with advanced mode, again all successful but booting the phone just gives the huawei logo then reboots again :(

I've tried different stock roms NXT-L29C636 but they all claim successful but still can't boot my phone

I've followed the steps in DC-Phoenix instructions to no avail.

The last step today meant shorting a pin to ground to force the phone into a mode when it was seen as windows as Huawei USB COM device, which seemed to work.

The instructions claimed I can use any NXT board flash as they're all the same and again all successful i used

NXT-AL10_M00A102_Board Software_Global _Nonspecific_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.0_05021WLB_4.dtwork

but the log file now says build is;

Build number: HLNXTAL10BM00A102

Model: HUAWEI NXT-L29

Battery state: 3249mv

from

Build number: :NXT-L29C432B192

Model: HUAWEI NXT-L29

Battery state: 7035mv

So my question is am I using the wrong firmware? It is always successful so I don't think it's bricked but I can't work out what I'm doing wrong.

Other things to mention is pressing vol - and vol + and power with sd card and dload doesn't work either.

Sorry for long post and thanks for reading

Any help very much appreciated

Thank you
[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackCat1969:
so for any noobs out there, got this work. My problem was the phone would never go into upgrade mode. The problem was in device manager (windows 7x64 but doesn't matter which version of windows), was when DC-Phoenix tried to put the phone in upgrade mode the command was sent and acted on but device manager showed warning triangles that it didn't have a driver or the driver was only partially loaded.

When I directed it to the downloaded Hi-Suite (which has all the drivers) it loaded the driver(s) there are TWO drivers on virtual COM ports. So if you phone is not going into upgrade mode best to check that Windows can actually see these TWO COM ports.

Hope this helps someone
[Moto E4 Themes, Apps, and Mods] SenorChang:
I have a small project I originally started for the Moto G1 where I've collected all the official Motorola and Lenovo boot animations and their matching logos and put them in flashable zip files.

I recently got a Moto E4 and noticed it has the same resolution as the Moto G1/G2/G3, so I added support for the E4 and the E4 Plus. Due to TWRP for the E4 Qualcomm not being able to write to the OEM partition, this won't work for Motorola ROMs, but other ROMs should work fine. (If you have any idea how to fix that issue, I'd love to know)

If it works for you, please post your model number (starting with XT) and which ROM you're using and I'll add it to my list.

If it doesn't work, I'll need your model number, which ROM you're using, and any output you get when running the flashable zip.
