[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mazroui:
Heya fellas, used to own a Huawei mate 10 before jumping on the pixel 2 xl which I got now... Would you consider the mate 20 pro a good upgrade from the pixel 2 xl or wait for something better?

Any major problems with the phone? I remember the 10 being flawless... Is the SD card out yet? Anyone from the middle East can confirm volte option built in ? From Dubai here
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] zeroXTC:
Hi..

I am not that active on this forum, but I read alot here, and thought I would answer you.

The mate 20 pro is by far the best phone I have had, and by far the phone I wish I didn't have.

The stats, the quality, everything seems so great...

But then there is the problems, had to exchange it 5 times because of the gluegate issue with the screen. Finally got one with the boe screen, so that works.

Emui sucks big time and ram management is the worst I have evey seen. Notification sometimes don't come in, and if they do, you won't be able to see them because of the notch, there is no room for notifications..

I could go on. Simple answer: No, wait for better updates or maybe custom rom...

Or another phone...
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Hazzay88:
I have the Mate 20 Pro and it is a powerhouse. I absolutely love it and my previous phone was a Pixel 2 XL.

If you can wait for the Sony XZ4 to come out I would jump on that
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] cfds:
My advice...avoid the mate 20. It has all the "candy" but its not working as it should. Face unlock and fingerprint reader can be a hit and miss. Software needs a lot of tweaking. I have a Mate 10 and Mate 20 and quite frankly apart from the camera the Mate 10 hold it own, never missed a beat and now its also running on Pie. I am sure a lot on this forum will comment and disagree but keep the 800€+ in your pocket and look for another "cheaper" brand. The Mate 20 is not worth the hype. Just my 2 cents....
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Jonathan-H:
Ram management is fine. If you know how to use a phone. You just change the app battery settings for the problem apps and BANG no problem.

Seriously I have Pixel 2XL and a Mate 20 pro (sent my Pixel 3 back (Crap phone).

Mate 20 pro is brilliant but I would wait on the P30 Pro in march.

Nonsense. Face unlock works 100 percent of the time. Fingerprint is a backup only for locking apps.

Mate 20 pro is hands down THE best mobile out now, and I have owned them ALL.

Get the P30 Pro in March IF it has the same features as this.

You are clearly paid by Huawei to defend their product...you are the ONLY one claiming it works 100% of the time. Its like watching these supported video's on you tube, they all have the same verdict - the best phone ever build and all works without a hitch. Get into real life and you will see its not all perfect. Anyway, I have contributed and it's up to the topic starter to make up his mind.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] jadaress1:
Well calling it a "paper weight" wasn't a great response. I had two LG screens before this one and they were bad. I now have a Boe screen and screen is perfect. Face unlock works 99percent of the time for ME. If you look at my history you will see this is the 2nd Huawei phone I've owned. So I'm not paid by them either lol. You do have to tweak it to your liking, but once you have its great to use. If i thought it was crap I'd go back to my Note 9 or onto another phone.

Things for me personally that could definitely be improved are the Always on Display, better battery management for apps (its a bit too aggressive) easy to fix but it's not obvious on how to for everyone. Audio is not as good as say LG or HTC but neither are Samsung currently.

Got to say I'm loving the phone more now ive fitted a uv glue glass screen protector, it now looks better and is smoother than when using a tpu one. Fingerprint scanner seems to work better too now.

Overall in my opinion its a great phone.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mazroui:
Thanks a lot guys for all the input , yeah I know how Huawei roll when it comes to ram management and notification delays, been there.

But the screen issues is a new one, emui I got used to long back so no worries there.. guess I'll wait a lil longer tho it might not be the phone to jump to at this moment.. yes I'd love the SD and having my music library/ photo gallery with me 24/7 but let's see what the upcoming phones offer..

Thank you everyone
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] cfds:
Well, if you are happy that's the most important thing, I have ordered a UV glue glass protector, hope it brings some improvement.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] jadaress1:
Hopefully yeh.. Still wouldnt say its 100% but its better. I ordered the Alinsea one from Amazon UK. Followed instructions and was soo easy to fit. Kinda proud of myself as it was my first glass protector with uv glue, thought it would be a shambles lol. Anyway goodluck [emoji846]

As we all know the development of our device isin't going great because of the Huawei decision to stop bootloader unlocking but we have a developer who is ready to work on our device And he already successfully ported the twrp for our device which is available in the development section but future development is halted because of the lack of the required files which can only be obtained from the devices with a root access which is only possible with unlocked bootloader .So anyone who has an unlocked bootloader and want to contribute in the future development of Honor play, please! ping me or drop down a comment or a reply below.

Thank you.

Actually we need people with unlocked bootloader and yeah it's available for me and i think only Chinese varient of the phone can't be unlocked. Cuz Indian varient still have this option even after updating to emui 9.

[MENTION=4713589]asser19[/MENTION] why is it not possible to open it now? if you want to modify your system, buy a phone that is less secure, huawei/honor is now a safer mobile phone that can not be opened and can not be rooted, this is not a problem
[Honor Play Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_infinity:
Whether or not you want to modify should be your choice because you've bought the device so it's yours.
[Honor Play Guides, News, & Discussion] spityu85hun:
yes, legitimate, but modification can cause damage to motherboard, which would be replaced by a warranty, thus causing damage to the manufacturer, not due to improper use, therefore, to prevent this, the manufacturer may block system modification

Maybe that blocks OEM for me.

No I use the app from my own bank to pay with nfc, but I don't think Google pay can block oem it would be really strange

I don't know what are you talking about. Huawei is most fishy when it comes to user's privacy. Many security researchers have mentioned that Huawei installs app thag sends user's data to the company. If the OEM is itself that much down, why to get afraid of external attacks?
[Honor Play Guides, News, & Discussion] lollo.21:
Guys with the upgrade 9.0.0.184 you can turn on the OEM unlock, the problem is, how do the root if Huawei no longer leaves the key to unlock the bootloader? Then, why did Huawei decide to enable OEM in the latest firmware upgrade? Thanks to those who help me

Do you need a TWRP image or a odin flashable image?

---------- Post added at 06:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:27 AM ----------

Was just taking a look on my drive and apparently I don't have any Nouget stuff anymore. There is this though, instead of downloading the entire ROM, if you just flash the bootloader part and not the recovery since you already have it, I think it has the boot image in there https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j7/samsung-galaxy-j7-nxt--j701f-core-nxt-exynos-7870/recovery-t3693009

By the way, if you have the original ROM still, or a stock one on the drive, you can look in the archive and pull out the boot.img and flash it with TWRP just like that. You don't need to get it from someone else's TWRP backup necessarily. It should be do-able with the above linked file as well. You need to select 'image' instead of 'zip' in TWRP when you go to the restore section.

[Nextbit Robin] Aung Chan Phyo:
Thank AnierinBliss
[Nextbit Robin] ChristianFS1:
Thank you for your work, truly appreciate it!

Here are my findings:

- Perhaps it's merely related to how I completed the setup procedure or because it currently doesn't have a sim-card installed, but the phone app keeps crashing for no reason.

- Even though the ROM doesn't come pre-rooted or anything of the sort, certain apps won't open, such as Pokemon GO.

- Not sure if this has to do with my device or the ROM, but the battery life is absolutely horrendous - I recharged the battery all the way to 100% after having rebooted it 50 minutes ago and it's already down to 75 percent - with <1 minute of SOT! Keep in mind this is with Bluetooth, GPS and everything except wifi turned off, battery-saver turned on.

Please keep up the good work, though.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] MaddMattAU:
So I successfully put Lineage OS on my Poco F1, then I decided to try and go back to MIUI (I was thinking of selling my Poco F1, then decided to keep it).

I don't know where I went wrong, but now the phone is stuck in Fastboot, I have tried so many tips from the internet with no luck. I think I may have deleted everything on the phone with it was working with Lineage OS (like in storage, so it could of deleted the stuff I needed to flash it?).

I seriously need help.

Report when used with D5803

Thanks for the instructions!

I'd like to add some comments that hopefully might help others. I tried to follow the described procedure with a Sony Xperia Z3 compact D5803. The numbers refer to the steps given above:

1.

- some USB cables don't work

- my USB3-port did not work correctly, USB2 did

3.

- my D5803 had no bootloader menu. So when you expect the colourful textmode menu on white background, you may be disappointed. However, recovery can still be accessed

- to enter recover, I had to FIRST switch on, THEN pressed vol-down to enter. Simultaneous pressing did not work

- reboot into recovery from Windroid (software reboot) usually failed

- a bootloop can be resolved with Emma (Sony Software) from flashmode (power off, press up, insert USB)

4.

- the ROM eXistenZ Marshmallow [5.6.5 FINAL] did not work on my phone. I got "system UI terminated" over and over again, no way to enter Android at a useful point, not even when starting in protected (?) mode

- However, the entire process also works with stock ROM, so you can skip steps 5 and 6

7.

- I skipped this step, as TWRP 3.2.3 did not work on my D5803

8.

- used TA_POC with EliteKernelZ3c-v3.4.33.zip and ta.img from step 2, the *.imp form TWRP 3.1.0 as recovery, answered "yes" when asked to disable ROC

9.

- I used Magisk 20.3. The SafetyNet check passed. Installed my banking app (Commerzbank Phototan 8.1.0), set it in Root hide, but it terminated without further messages. I had to go back to 6.0.3 (which probably even works on rooted devices)

- I install Xposed as a Magisk module. When activated, the SafetyNet fails. It can be reversed when deactivating the module.

Resurrection Remix P

Hello team, I share the great work you have done to make the GSI Resurrection Remix already with some of the Fix collected in this forum with the rom havooc:

The installation method is quite simple like any GSI:

•	Install Treeble recovery.

•	Make Wipes

•	Install RR Oreo Treeble

•	install image RR Android P as system Image

•	Install oreo kernel

•	and restart normally

•	Once the restart is complete, go back to the recovery and install GAAPS nano android 9 arm64

•	After that if you like you can install Magisk and ready

What will not work in the first instance are:

•	Rotation

•	camera and flash light

•	gestures on sensor

but do not worry here I'll leave you the fix

for rotation, copy the sensor folder that I leave here in the path of / system / etc and place the permissions 0755 for the folder and 0644 for the files inside the folder

For camera copy the file Lib_mot_app6_metadata.so in the path in / vendor / lib and place permissions 0644

Par manager in sensor sticks the usr folder that I leave you in the path / vendor keeping the permissions for 0755 folder and for the files contained in 0644

and ready restart and you will have to enjoy this wonderful rom

if you like you can install Gcam for better camera experience
