Bro no new build with April patch ? ....It was the best rom :(
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] ft.varun:
I like everything about this phone. The processor, camera, battery, build. But the screen to body ratio is too less its only 81.7%. Whereas other phones in this price or around this price use COF technology and achieve 91%. Redmi should really work on this aspect of the phone.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] McStecca:
I don't think that the screen ratio matters
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] stevejoshua:
A very interesting thing is camera. combining 4 pixels in to one large pixel. simply amazing. Hope that camera doesn't disappoint our expectations.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] PixelPro:
Screen to body ratio is totally irrelevant. It's mainly marketing hype. What you really want is a quality product at an affordable price, and that is the Redmi Note 7. I bought one, and I'm totally happy with it.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Suhasramesh:
Hey guys...just was wondering if someone could tell me y the face unlock becomes slow if ambient display is turned on.....also if u knw please tell me the fix for this....btw 'pick up the phone to show' must be enabled for u to notice this
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Swimguy14:
Ambient display doesn't activate face unlock
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Suhasramesh:
No no...wen ambient display is turned on and u use the power button to open and unlock your phone,there is good 2-3 sec delay before it opens
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Swimguy14:
I see..on mine, that isn't the case..the phone unlocks in less than a second. Wish I had a suggestion for ya

[Nexus 7 General] NeoPreacher:
I found a nougat du (dirty unicorns) 11.7.2 rom with october patch level for grouper. I'm running it since over a week now and it's really smooth.

I just think you like to give it a shot, too.

See here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603883691

to clarify, it's not my work. Just found it and share.

cheers
[Nexus 7 General] MikelFuchs:
Which ROM is it?

Can you post some screenshots or at least the device information from settings?
[Nexus 7 General] NeoPreacher:
dirty unicorns nougat rom for grouper. i specified it a little more for newbies. but i don't know which information was missing or couldn't be found through reading or checking the link??
[Nexus 7 General] MikelFuchs:
Ah, ok, thanks for update.

Are all features working?

Any restrictions?
[Nexus 7 General] NeoPreacher:
i guess all possible features for our device are there and working, i recognized nothing faulty so far. Didn't used DU for long time so I don't really know which features could be missing. but customizing stuff is in. and again it keeps a constant smoothness. I'm a bit impressed.
[Nexus 7 General] simon47:
CANNOT work functionally

i download and flashed. but i cannot get to the home lanuch. it offers android phone failed and get restart over and over. my device is grouper 32g. and is it an unoffical rom? i cannot find it in DU official download.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
I can only speak for BLA-L29C432B197 (Probably B179 too), but I assume this will cover any Pie firmware released in January.

In these releases Huawei disabled custom kernel, so phone won't boot with a custom kernel flashed.

This had me wanting to downgrade to B161 where it does work. So I try with NoCheck, which is fine to update with, Software install failed.

I try with FH (I happened to have a credit left) HiSuite method, Software install failed.

I tried with Dload package, same result.

So I figure I can use Rollback, as it worked fine on Beta to get back to Oreo with it...

It failed after 7% (or so, I didn't actually watch), device reboot to a black screen. Fastboot was working though.

So it most likely only flashed Oreo bootloader, and device was hardbricked. I managed to get it back using test point and IDT, this will void your warranty though.

So, do not downgrade using NoCheck recovery and rollback package, it's not worth the time to get device back.

Edit: Downgrade from Pie B197 to Oreo B157 is fine using NoCheck.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
So, there are no options to downgrade from 197? WTF is wrong with Huawei?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
And probably will also require spending money on other tools. Backups are also important, so people with rooted devices should use Partitions Backup (by wanam) and backup nvme, oeminfo and modem partitions.

As for downgrading with DLOAD or HiSuite we have no idea if it will work or if it will brick. Original recovery/eRecovery might have a fail safe mechanism.

Dload might work or just refuse to downgrade, but i don't think it will brick.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
Where I can find this app, and what version I have to use?

I installed Partitions Backup & Restore 2.0.1.

LE. Backup Done.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
”5. This system version can be rolled back to the official version of EMUI 8.0 in Phone Manager. Rolling back the system version will erase your personal data. For more information, please contact the customer service hotline.” - according to description of v.197 firmware.

Where is this option in the phone menu? It is written in v.179 firmware, also.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
There's none! I don't know what they mean with Phone Manager. My guess is that HiSuite = Phone Manager.

When downgrading with No_check recovery?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
I asked Huawei centre about downgrade and they told me that is possible in service centre only.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Energixia:
Hey there, search on forum a tool for P20 Pro. From 179 i came back on 158 Oreo ;)

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
This tool we already have it. I dont know if ante0 used it this time, but I think he did ( contains nocheck.img).
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Yep. Same NoCheck.img.

Edit: well, unless that nocheck is for p20... That might be why.

I will compare them.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] rogerinnyc:
I can confirm that in connecting my ALP-29 to my Windows 10 PC with HiSuite, I get offered the choice to roll back to Oreo. But the small print warns that your device should not be rooted or unlocked. I'm happy with Pie, so I'm not tempted to check whether this works without bricking your device, but just letting folks know about the purported option. Presumably if you try, you should at minimum unroot first......You also will be factory wiped.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
To what version of Oreo did you tried to get back?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
B150, the rollback version. I figured that would work as it is a rollback. But I should maybe have gone with B158.

Either way, don't do it with NoCheck for BLA :P

I'm almost done repairing device!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
B150 was the roll back from Pie Beta. According to FF, I think that B156 and 157 are the roll back from official Pie.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
B157 should be the roll-back version. But a P20 Pro owner bricked when downgrading with HiSuite, with a completely stock device, so....
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
A new B157 roll-back version has been posted on FF today.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Yep, i was posting about right now. Probably they fixed the bricking issue.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
How is your phone? Any news regarding downgrade?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
It's alive and well on Oreo now xD

I will test downgrade using B157 tomorrow to see if that bricks or not, while I still have back of phone open
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Deano1889:
So I'm having a bad bad day. I used the downgrade 0.4 tool and now have a bricked phone with no working screen (still has fastboot but nothing else). Did you fix your's and if you can you help explain to me how,

Thanks
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
The only way is to remove the back of your phone to get to testpoint. This will void your warranty.

You would have to use testpoint then flash bootloader using DC Phoenix. This will give you an unlocked fastboot from which you can flash all partitions. I would then unpack update.app of the build you were on and flash every partition. I took the long route and flashed board firmware, but no board exist for P20 (at least not on DC).

If you still are under warranty I would use that.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Deano1889:
:eek: Does it make a difference if my bootloader is already unlocked and FRP unlocked also?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] QuazIqbal:
I'm suffering from the same. I downgraded P20 pro CLT-L29 C432 from pie 195 to rollback 163 via flash tool ( no check recovery). My phone is hard bricked with complete black screen. PC detects phone always on fastboot, my bootloader and frp is unlocked.

Can the DC unlocker successfully flash the firmware via fastboot method without the need of using the test point?

Is there any way to even destroy the fastboot so that I may hide the bootloader status and claim warranty? :crying:
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Sorry. I didn't read you had used beta downy tool. If it was with Hisuite on a locked phone it would be fine. If you feel comfortable opening it up you can do so, it will break the waterproof seal so you would have to reseal it if you want IP68 rating (if P20 even has that?).

If it's a glass back it gets a little tricker. Mine broke in one of the corners so I need to get a new back for it. But I was too quick when removing it.

I only used a hairdryer, suction cup and some opening tool I got when I bought a repair kit for phones. You can use a guitar pick instead of a opening tool.

Once back is gone it should be easy to flash everything back.

You can't break fastboot from fastboot, atleast not on Pie. Nor can you flash anything without testpoint.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Downgrade from B197 to B157 was a success, using NoCheck.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
Great news. There are few B.157. Which one did you use ( version) ? The last one?

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] badmania98:
I know. Did you find what was wrong/different ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
I didn't check that. But most likely something in the update-binary in the update.zip :)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] QuazIqbal:
But the problem is that there is no board software available for P20 Pro, do you think the board software for other Huawei phones may work?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
It's put in fastboot mode when you flash bootloader, so you could flash everything manually.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Deano1889:
I'm not comfortable with removing the glass back of my P20 Pro but desperate times and all... This test point you talk of, do I need to somehow plug into that? i'm still unsure what is required other than removing the back of the device?

Also you mention flashing everything manually via fastboot. As I can still execute fastboot commands I wan to give this a go. What do I need to flash? I've tried all different P20 Pro ROM versions, fastboot commands execute OK but device is still bricked.

Many thanks for your help and advice on this.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
To remove back I suggest looking at some iFixit videos. My back is glass and I used a hairdryer and a opening tool, but I still managed to break the glass in one of the corners. So be careful. I suppose it's cheaper getting a new back and some sealing rather than getting board replaced at service center?

You can find testpoint images in DC, click on the "Update OEMINFO" tab in DC Phoenix. Check the box next to "Use Bootloader". Click on the "Testpoint" tab (tab next to "Bootloader" tab) and click on Charlotte_CLT_P20_Pro to see an image of the testpoint.

Plug USB in to computer. Install the drivers from DC (https://mega.nz/#!hCpA1KDY!TVR7Mkp5dy8ffSn9whW4UgXl_axHZ4ZGp3pj4tZgFUY).

Unplug battery connector (I suppose it's next to the yellow connector on the image)

You ground the testpoint by using a wire on the testpoint and put the other end of the wire on the shield under the camera/next to.

When phone is recognized as HUAWEI COM 1.0 on computer plug battery connector back in.

Click on the "Update OEMINFO" tab, check the box next to 'use bootloader' and uncheck 'update oeminfo' at the bottom.

Now start with the first Kirin970 bootloader and flash, if it fails do the next one, and so on until you find one that works. DC will tell you when it's flashed and phone will be put in fastboot mode automatically. Though this time you can flash all and any partitions.

Next you should unpack UPDATE.APP from a Pie update.zip (the build you were on before fastboot brick) and unpack the update.app using Huawei Update extractor.

Now start flashing all images, image name is the partition you flash to (except for recovery and erecovery ones, they're cut off 1 or 2 characters for ramdisk, vendor and kernel. You will notice)

After you're done, hope that phone boots and do a factory reset.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Deano1889:
I have opened up a service repair and will send the phone to Huawei and see what price they quote. If it's silly money I might be left with the removing glass back option.

I have done these steps already. flashing via fastboot appears to execute OK but I guess this needs to be via the testpoint as you say otherwise it won't work? and to do this I need DC Unocker 2 and a paid subscription (3days)?

My fear is that I open up the device damaging the glass in the progress, pay for the DC tool and then still don't success which would leave me with hardware and software broken device. Fingers crossed Huawei go easy on me.

I wonder how much they'll quote for the repair and how much i'm wiiling to pay to prevent the method you kindly tell me about.

Hi, i have problem with my M10P - i flash b197 and then root using patched recovery. After that i want to downgrade to b157 so i try to flash it with "nocheck". "NoCheck" flash only recovery becouse when system restart there is no longer root without phone and cant flash system. After that i do the big mistake - i extract system with huawei extractor and flash system using fastboot. After that when want to power on its only show "your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted" like want to go recovery and nothing more. Then i plug in phone to usb and restart screen show eRecovery but when i want to wipe data phone is restart and show "your device has ben unlocked..." and freeze.

Summarizing - my phone have unlocking frp and bootloader i can start on fastboot, and erecovery when plug in to cable. I cant start on recovery and do wipe.

Does anyone have any idea what i can do?

Sorry for my bad English.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
So you "downgraded" to Oreo by just flashing System from B157?

That's not downgrading. You have to use NoCheck.

If you used NoCheck to downgrade something else is wrong. If you only flashed system.img from Oreo, flash back Pie system.img.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] grossvs:
Yes i only flashing system.img from B157

Thanks for giving the courage to open the back. I have tried to put my P20 pro to HUAWEI COM 1.0 mode but grounding the test point as shown in DC phoenix test point point image doesn't yield any result? Any help will be highly appreciated

Edit : It works, trying with the insulated wire helped.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] QuazIqbal:
Update : Good news finally. My device is now unbricked by flashing downloaded OTA from Firmware Finder (Oreo B161 simple non-rollback version) using DC phoenix via testpoint mode. P.S. Flashing B195 pie didn't worked earlier.

Special thanks to [MENTION=2247733]ante0[/MENTION] and [MENTION=7530018]oslo83[/MENTION] for giving the courage and proper guidance to open the back of my phone to ground TP. I can't express my joy to see my device awake again. :)

Hi i have a p20. An i did the same stupid thing. So my device is hardbricked. I already opened my device but the test point grounding does'nt have any effect? How did yo do it? And

how did you install the software?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] curtricias:
I cant get my pc to recognize the phone as huawei com 1. Shortcutted the test point maybe 10 times ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Make sure you use an insulated wire.

Any that battery is disconnected when you do short it.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] curtricias:
Unplug battery connector

Shortcut test point as shown on dc.

And then?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Then device should show up in Device Manager as Huawei COM 1.0 under Port(s).

After this you can plug back battery connector and flash bootloader with DC
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] curtricias:
So the usb cable stays in al the time?

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------

There is only one test point on the p20. You have to short cut it on the metal plate just next to it?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Do it like this: unplug USB, unplug battery connector, plug in USB, short tp to shield (metal plate should be fine). When device is recognized in Device Manager as COM 1.0 or USB Ser you can plug battery connector back in.

If USB Ser, install drivers from DC.

When it's recognized as Huawei COM 1.0 you can flash bootloader using DC.

Battery needs to be connected after it has been recognized, else it won't be booted into fastboot when it has flashed bootloader.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] curtricias:
Ok. It worked. Bootloader installed. The screen works! Bootloader appears..... but..... when i install update app from 9.0.0.197 the installation gets started but during the proces it ends with errors.

Then i manually flashed cust, kernel, recovery_ramdisk and system all ended ok but when rebooting screen doesn't work.

Buttons dont work eather......

Any thoughts ?

Something is wrong then.

In first picture it says Build number: 9.0.0

In second it says Build number: 8.1.0

Also device must be flashed in testpoint mode, right after flashing bootloader files. Don't reboot between. Screen should stay black. It does not work in regular fastboot due to it being patched there.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] curtricias:
That's because i just different bootloaders to test.

Should i just the update app from firmware that i've downloaded from ff? I just the same as was installed.

And must it be a 9.0.0 bootloader to boot 9.0.0197?
