I have the L04 variant. Still on v164 and getting nothing via OTA. Is there just nothing available or can I force one of the other updates on my L04?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hy mate, for OTA update with no wipe there is available this method confirmed by an L04 user. Please read carrefuly how to in the OP before proceeding ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] abra-kadabra:
Is this a new update?

9.1.0.185(C461E4R1P5)_Firmware_9.0.0_r3_EMUI9.1.0_ 05015SYC(Support.HalabTech.Com)

:)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
It's the same update as the one posted a time ago, but this is for C461 CUST whille that one was for C431/C432 CUST.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yeah, on 9th August they will have a press conference where they will unveil and show what's new in EMUI 10 (Android Q). I guess that we will receive the update maybe in late September early October because the next update will be still EMUI 9 and firmware v9.1.0.300 with August security patch ?.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dabrain23:
thanks for the hint. I contacted him to ask how exactly he did it. Hope i get to enjoy v185 without having to wait for weeks
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
You're welcome, mate. I'm sure that you will update your phone with no problem, folowing his steps ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Did you get version 185 yet?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] EnormoDerClown:
I also got it, normal OTA without doing anything special
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yes, my wife's phone got the update yesterday afternoon, 4.2 GB, now she's on 185.

If you still don't receive OTA, you can always try this method to update (NO WIPE and no CUST Change).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Silviu,

Do you know that if using the above method I can get rid of the Orange cust update that sits on my P30 PRO right now?

Will banking apps such as the RFZ Mobile app still work after updating using this method?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
No, that update will install anyway, it's carrier dependent.

Yes, your phone will pass Safety Net and you can use any banking app (i use ING, BRD & Alpha Bank for my firm and all are working).

Using the method i've shown you from this thread is like using HiSuite for updating but with a liitle help from HSTool and software downloaded from Firmware Finder (Full OTA).

Cheers ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Thanks for clarifying that for me!

I heard that these carrier dependent updates delay updates received from Huawei as the updates have to be approved by the carrier before being released to us. Is this true or bull****?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Only on VDF & ORO. I have friends (and me) with Digi/Telekom SIM-s (retail phones bought not carier) whitch don't have any carrier update (check SS from my phone).

If you have branded phone (bought from ORO and use ORO SIM) , yes, you will have to wait for the update to be approved by carrier (and update their settings to).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dabrain23:
Actually, i got 185 over night via OTA. didnt have to use that workaround. Didnt notice any major change as of now though. Whats your experience on battery drain? Is a factory reset necessary after OTA update?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] lapidu:
Witch file must i copy to the SD Card for dload flash?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
For dload method (be sure to backup your stuffs, it will wipe your phone memory) you should copy the entire dload folder (it has 3 zips inside) to an USB OTG.

The entire procedure is explained here .

Open the zip and extract the dload folder on the pendrive (USB stick) ;

- Turn off the P30 Pro

- Connect the pendrive (USB stick) with the OTG cable

- Now press the three buttons at the same time.

- Volume +

- Volume -

- Power button (the p30pro will light up and vibrate, keep the buttons pressed.

Only when you see the blank screen and EMUI appears will you release the buttons.

The flashing will start and lasts about 3-4 minutes.

After flashing the P30 Pro will restart automatically

Upgrade with NM Card

- Extract the dload folder to the Nm card

And also you can try this one (if your phone is on. If not, use the other option with phone off)

- Enter the service menu by dialing * # * # 2846579 # * # *

- Press Option 4. Sofware Upgrade

- Press OPTION 1. Memory Card Upgrade

The device will restart and the update will begin.

Huawei P30 PRO UPDATE 185 SECURITY PATCH 5 JULY , CLARO COLOMBIA
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] profetia:
What phone are you using? P30 Pro on 9.1.0.178 here ??
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ayuwoki:
anyone here who experienced random reboots?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hybrid Soldier:
The only thing that I noticed from this last update is the battery drain.

At this time I usually had 5% more

Unfortunately I can't compare with the last update because I did a factory reset when I installed it.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
I would wait a couple of days for the update to settle down. It usually does and besides 5% is within margin of error.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hybrid Soldier:
Moren than a week to settle down?

I don't think so...

.185 Patch 1 . . What is it?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] khalid0099:
I got it just now also
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Me too. Been away in vacation for 3 days, used my phone for pictures/videos and calls (bluetooth connected, no emails, sync deactivated) and i bearly get 5h SOT. I thought it may be because of roaming and backup photos/videos to cloud, but it's not. I think that something is using a lot of energy in background...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] betovanbuuren:
Does the same happen in 186? I read that seems like 186 version handles better battery life...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Don't know, i can't test the v186 firmware because i don't have my laptop with me :(, but i did some test on my phone last wek (for this thread) flashing v185 several times in a row and i think that affected my lifetime. Before that i had 8 days of usage with great SOT - check my post here -. When i will return i will make a downgrade to v161 and flash using dload method v178&v185, maybe that will help regain great battery life.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Never have I seen a patch for an update. Something must be wrong with 185.

Could this patch been related to the battery drain...

Anyway I didn't get any updates here...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jacobtf:
I'm on 178 and still get 8-9 hours of SOT on a charge.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] EnormoDerClown:
My SOT or battery life in general didn't changed in 185, think I am a lucky one ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] tamaskurti:
... Or maybe it is related somehow to a major update.

Often is happening, that around a major update/upgrade at the corner they emits patches tó prepare the system for emui 10 (android q) for example. Respectively same is happening with rollback patches.

But this is Just an opinion. Maybe I am wrong...

new of update -

The latest EMUI update for the Huawei P30 duo will bring Night mode to the front camera. Version 9.1.0.193 is already seeding to Chinese users and is scheduled to make its way to other areas across the world in the coming weeks.

After installing the update, users will see the new Night mode option when switching to the selfie cam. It will enable better exposed images in low-light conditions as long as you can keep steady as it captures multiple shots and stacks them together.

In addition to the neat camera feature, the latest update also brings the August patch

Regarding battery draining:

I have it also, but checking the cause I've find out, that Google Play Service (Carrier Service) was draining the battery. I've reinstalled Carrier Service and after this batterylife is better.

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hybrid Soldier:
Dumb question...

If I skip an update, for example, my device is .180 and there's a .185 and .190 releases and I choose to install the .190 I'll lose the enhancement of the .185?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
No, the enhancements are in the v190 too, because the new firmware is based on the one before ( i've read a docx info sheet from the dload firmware where the updates are explained and what it includes the new firmware). It's like in this one attached (is from P20 Pro, i've got my neighbour's phone to update it, because he didn't get 9.1 on his device :) )
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] unibomber:
which version can we use to update the vog-l04? VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.193?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
I still haven't received update 185.

It starts to piss me off that Huawei is still so slow with delivering updates.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
I'm allready on v193 :))). try to flash using this method, it worked for me with all phones that i have updated. Check my posts from here and here and don't hesitate to ask for help (if nedeed) ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
How is version 193 compared to the previous ones? Anything remarkably improved? Camera, battery, fingerprint sensor?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
I have installed last night, i'm not able to tell you the diffenrece right now :). I will reply in a couple of days.

Meanwhile there might be one thing that you can do, you might try to use ercovery to download latest version. How to:

1. Shutdown your phone

2. Insert the power cable and hold down the Volume+ button

3. After turning on the screen, you can release the button and you should enter erecovey

4. After getting into eRecovery, click ,,Download latest version and recovery'', then connect to your Wi-Fi network and start downloadind / installing the firmware (hopefully the v185)

5. If it is still the v178, you can Cancel and return to as it was.

Cheers,

Silviu
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Updating using this method does not wipe the phone?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
NO, it's tottaly safe. NO WIPE is done when using this method ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
It works and I'm downloading version 185 right now!

Thanks for your advice! I will sure use this trick in the future as it seems to force updates sooner.

Does this method remove the operator patch (the one i have from Orange in my case)?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Unfortunatelly, NO. It will prompt you to install their carreier update as soon as the update is finished on your device (after restart in a couple of minutes) :)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Something is weird with the download. It went smoothly until 14% and now it seems stuck there. The internet is working ok and I have a fast connection.

Is this normal?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
It depends on Huawei servers and internet connection. If you have problems with connection, you can always Cancel the operation before let's say 90%, it's safe, because it's just downloading not installing.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yes, it requires Windows preinstalled and ~20GB free storage on PC/laptop if you want to use the method with HiSuite.

If you follow my tutorial with eRecovery then you don't need a laptop or PC.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Version 193 will be available OTA or by method mentioned by me above more than sure next month (12-14th of September). That is Huawei politic about firmware updates unfortunatelly.

Try to follow the method with HiSuite step by step and maybe you get it done by first time :D
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yeah, the BETA for EMUI 10 starts on 8th September, but it's mentioned that it's starting ONLY for China. ATM we don't know when or if it will be released for european version.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
I've seen a couple of hands-on on YTB, seems a step up for Huawei, espescially AOD with a lot more features, dark interface even on 3rd apps, new notifucation toogles as you mentioned, improved Camera UI and who knows what else they have coocked for us, P30 PRO users :)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cinceres1989:

Is there a way to force the carrier settings to download?

178 broke my WiFi calling and I feel its these carrier settings that make it work.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Try by changing your actual SIM with another. Restart your phone, let it for a couple of minutes, then swap the SIM-s. Power off your phone and open again with your original SIM from the carier that you need the update. I done this when on my P20 Pro (Vodafone carier).

Out of interest my phone is from EE in the UK and is locked to EE. I did try a sim from Three but it asked for the network unlock code.

I'm happy I have WiFi calling back. Thanks for your help.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Glad you regain Wi-Fi calling.

About locked device check here for unlocking on EE to use with another network. In my country, if i buy a locked carrier device, i can ask the provider for unlock network code for 20€ in the first year of contract or for 10€ after 16 months from purchasing.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hy mate, no, it's not. The version from firmware v193 is 9.1.0.323. I think that you need more than the apk to have the selfie night mode on another firmware (libs and xml and other files from system). I'm not rooted so i can't provide you those files. Maybe someone with unlocked boooader and root can help you provide those files/folders and apk.

Cheers,

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] IRPnet:
Bear in mind that updates for phones come from carriers, NOT from the phone manufacturer, unless your phone was sold SIM free.

Carriers have bloatware built into their updates and will not normally send updates out until they are fairly satisfied the update will not cause any issues with the phones. The last thing they want is a percentage of their customers calling because an update screwed up their phone.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hybrid Soldier:
