Yup, thinking of a Samsung for my next phone, gave these guys a go, nice phones, like to blow their trumpet often but fail to deliver on the basics like an up to date and secure OS.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr.Sir:
I have had no issues at all with EMUI10. I've owned a Galaxy Alpha (premium device) which received almost no updates, only one major update which was badly optimized. The Galaxy S8 which I had for two years once received an update with a critical battery drain bug which affected units in northern Europe, it took them 3 months to fix it. It was a firmware issue with the modem.

I don't mind slow updates or the rare minor bug, but with Samsung I had almost no updates (Alpha) and a very serious bug (S8).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
Have to agree. I had several Galaxy Notes and also LG G series phones. Very few updates and various issues on the G series. Huawei is certainly not the worst when it comes to updates, and so far the P10 Plus, P20 Pro, and now the P30 Pro are the best phones I've owned.... Reliable, good features and batteries that actuary last the day!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] fgar82:
I had the S10+ and while I was in the shopping saw huawei stand, went there and tested the camera and I was amazed how big diff there is... So sold it and bought p30 pro... And then my surprise the P30 pro lasted all day with me.. From 8 to 8pm when I'm home it's still has 30% little more little less... My S10+ need to charge it through the day once sometimes twice.. And if I didn't it would shutdown around 5pm. It's not a bad phone but p30 pro for me even with slow updates is my pick...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
Haha Pokémon Go is exactly why I love this battery... My P20 Pro was good but this is so much better.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] exodus394:
Still no news on the updates? I also follow P20 Pro forum...and nothing there too...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] felipy2k:
but what version is the final one after all? we still on betas right ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] fgar82:
I think yes. Cos hicare still give the option to roll back to android 9... If it was the final nine beta don't think there would be such an option anymore..

Android really complicated, no google rolling beta Android 11 for piexel and we r still beta 10..
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] nogeekname:
Still nothing here in New Zealand. I was told that they are still working on the bugs before the Telcos are happy to release it. Best option is to hit up your Telco every few days. In regards to those experiencing bugs, always do a factory reset after major updates, pain in the butt but it fixes a lot of bugs.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] chrisftlse:

If you don't get any update and you want to get EMUI 10 and you have an OTG adapter/cable and a memory stick, you can allways flash the update using dload firmware from my thread https://xdaforums.com/huawei-p30-pro/development/rom-emui-10-dload-fw-vog-l09vog-l29-v10-t4032143

i found the otg .. now i have 10.0.0.178 thx for help Silviu
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
:highfive::cowboy::cool: great man, glad i could help you. In couple of days , i will post v186 as dload firmware, so if you're willing to be on latest, i'll quote you :p
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] lupone22:
i still get ota if i stay on 178?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yes, when ORO will release it, after ''intense'' firmware testing on their own labs and after adding their own bloatware apps (maybe as an Easter holiday present) :) :) :)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] lupone22:
pff...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
I think I'll take that opportunity to flash again and get rid of this 3Uk branding.... So back to unbranded again. Have to set it all up again though. Sigh.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Stay on v178 3UK branded atm. When i will add v186 (icouple of days, maybe one week top) flash it then and set up your phone without accepting their carrier update (turn off in Software update AUTO download using WI-Fi and night update)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
Will do [emoji16] thanks for your great help with everyone here!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Braderzf50:
Just a quick update for anyone with an unlocked phone on EE in the UK. If you don't have the update because EE are dragging their feet, go pick up a sim card on any other network. I bought a 3 sim card for £1, popped it in and a few mins later received an update for .260 then one after for emui 10. Worth a try if you are in the same predicament.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] shineyads:
In addition, not sure how long it has been available (as I manually update) but I just got the 186 update with a 3 sim.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
I have 178 and am on 3uk. No update here yet. Tried on my Virgin SIM too and nothing.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Neilvwheatley:
Hey, how can I change region on my p30 pro to UK.

It was purchased in china
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
If by changing region you mean rebrand it from a chinese version AL00 to an international one C431, you can't. In order to do that, you'll need an unlocked bootloader, root and some other things to in order to rebrand it.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Silviu, this v186 version is the proper version for me too?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
YES, it will be v10.0.0.186 VOG-L09/VOG-L29 C431, so you can use it too rather waiting for an OTA from ORO :eek:
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Braderzf50:
I'll keep an eye out, no update here yet!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] shineyads:
Was your phone from 3? Mine is the unlocked version.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] skodann:
Put me also in that list :D
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
Originally a 3 phone, then unbranded with 178, then branded again with 3's stupid additional update to 178 with their bloatware.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] frosty68:
Three UK today.

I updated my phone to .168 & .178 with the files here (thanks), my wife waited for the OTA.

Today I got this and she hasn't :D
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
gotcha ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
It's gotta be something to do with the phone IMEI or something....

My phone is from Three UK, unbranded to 178 from here, then Three UK sent their additional update to 178 and it branded again. So once again an official Three phone.

No updates for me today. [emoji849]
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] frosty68:
Both phones bought from O2, though neither have had an O2 SIM inserted and the only branding I've noticed is the three app is installed.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
Is the splash screen on load up still O2 or changed to Three?

Thankfully it sounds like they've stopped pre-loading Wuntu which was discontinued last year [emoji849]. 178 still had it on their update.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] frosty68:
Neither, it's Huawei.

.. I've just rebooted to double check
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
Ok so that update didn't come from 3 then. Just happened you were using their data connection when you got it. Must have come straight from Huawei. Cool.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] NZ-Simplicity:
I didn't get my phone through a Telco here in NZ, and I still haven't got the update.. Looks like NZ is gonna be one of the last places.. :(

Hi, I have the p30 pro from Vodafone. It hasn't got any Vodafone bloatware or anything, it's unlocked but I'm still stuck on emui 9 with October security patch. If I search for update with WiFi it says no update available. How can I update the software OTA? Do I need to buy a different carrier sim card? Please help. My current version is: 9.1.0.240(C431E4R2P2)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Have you tried eRecovery method? Check my post #3683 on how to and remove SIM before doing it.

Or if there is no update using eRecovery, you can install HiSuite PC version 10, connect your phone to PC using cable and check for an update (without SIM, of course).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
Thanks, I'll try this. If it doesn't work, am I able to update using a sim card from a different carrier?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Of course, you can use another SIM from other carrier in order to check. Maybe yours is blocking the update :rolleyes:
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
I just tried with a 3 sim, cleared data and cache of the software update app, turned off auto updates, update overnight etc & then used mobile data to search for update, still nothing :( will try the recovery process next and then the PC method. Very annoying, one would expect huawei to be up to date with updates ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Strange indeed :eek:.

If you want and have yourself a OTG adaptor+memory stick or Huawei NMCard and you're willing to Factory Reset your phone in order to upgrade (of course, with proper backup done to your data), you can always use the dload firmware from my thread , the one that matches your cust and version (ex.VOG-L29 C431) :rolleyes:
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
Thanks for all your help ! Will flashing a ROM from your guide void my warranty?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Nope, those are official Huawei firmwares, used in Huawei Service Centers in order to revive softbricked devices or flash them after a replaced motherboard or to test different programs for compatibility.

When you decide to use dload firmware, double check your cust and version to match the one you want to flash and Factory Reset your device before doing it, that's how i do it :).

Feel free to ask for any assistance on my thread or here.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
Much appreciated!!!! ??

New links available in firmware finder 186
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Can't use that firmware, is the FULL OTA that we recieve when using HiSuite PC or through eRecovery. We can't flash that one, we need to wait for normal OTA (which is ~160MB) or for it's availability using HiSuite PC or eRecovery or to wait for the dload firmware to be posted on-line.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
I just spoke to Huawei live chat. Basically they told me to reset my network settings and try again. So I did but this time I used an EE SIM. I received a small 15mb update which literally added an My EE app and that's it. Nothing else. No emui 10 or android 10. So frustrating !
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
?????, sry m8, but it's sooo damn funny.... ''reset your network settings and you'll receive EMUI 10''
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
188 showing now. I am confused by which is for which model though!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
V188 is for the chinese version of P30 Pro (VOG-AL10), it's the same as the one i've posted on my dload firmware thread.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
Yeah tell me about it ? Huawei are just ridiculous ??
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Well, just check using HiSuite or eRecovery every day, untill you will get v178 or wait a few days for me to share dload firmware v186, latest with January security patches, which seems to be pushed OTA to devices allready on EMUI 10.0.0.178 ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adamelphick:
Ok thanks for clearing that up. The designations are so confusing!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yeah, it's kinda tricky, but if you download and check the update info file from zip file, you will see for what devices the update is pushed to ;).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
Thanks again for the help. I just checked via erecovery and it tried to download the ROM I currently have. And I'm not liking this, Huawei are updating devices already on emui 10 but they've forgotten about those on emui 9 ????
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yeah, what can i say, keep trying untill it downloads EMUI 10.

As it seems, your IMEI/SN hasn't been yet whitelisted on Huawei update servers and that's why you haven't receive it. But when you get tired of waiting, you know that you have the snd option, to flash a dload firmware and get a clean software on your phone :cowboy:
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
I will .kst probably go for the snd option. I've never flashed a ROM to Huawei before, I've done Samsung, HTC, Xiaomi but never Huawei so will need a step by step guide from you please ? and just to confirm that the warranty will remain intact even after flashing yeah ? ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
YES, it will. Everyone here can tell you it has nothing to do with warranty (it's not a custom ROM, it's not unlocking bootloader and it's the official release of Huawei, as i've mentioned few posts before).

For more guidance, please ask on my thread, it's easy for me to guide you there :)

This morning I've received OTA in Romania, no network branded phone.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Seb85a:
Just got update to. 186 via OTA. Unlocked VOG L09 using Vodafone UK sim
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
You're lucky, your IMEI/SN got whitelisted on Huawei update servers :p. Mine didn't... yet :). Will see if i get it too normally or i will flash it through dload method in couple of days, when dload firmware will be available :D.

Thought they will add more tweaks to this new firmware, but i guess that all we'll get in next 2-3 firmwares updates will be only security patches, because P40 line launch is near the corner and all their forces are on new line :(
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Silviu, I strongly suspect that using Dload method prevents the phone from getting software updates. I'm stuck on 168 and my wife has received 178 OTA, both on Orange Romania. Her phone, a P30, has not been upgraded to Emui 10 via Dload.

I know that it doesn't make any sense but it seems like so.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
It's something wrong with your phone, but not in the bad sense. My guess is that your device wasn't yet whitelisted on Orange's or Huawei's update servers to get the update and therefore you're stucked on v168. Check this post from here, earlier today, he got OTA few weeks after using dload firmware to upgrade from EMUI 9.1 to EMUI 10.

I advise you to REMOVE SIM, check using eRecovery or HiSuite PC version. If still no update, insert a different provider SIM (Vodafone/Digi/Telekom) restart device, check for OTA, eRecovery or HiSuite.

Let me know if some of this worked for you.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
I will try removing the sim tonight and see if I can force the update. A couple of days ago I inserted a different sim in my phone but didn't get any update...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Let me know how it worked after doing all the steps i've recommended you previously. If still nothing, backup your stuffs, flash v178 using dload and wait for v186, at least that seems to be getting through OTA really fast to users these last days (including in RO, as [MENTION=4120199]marselcj[/MENTION] posted here ;)

This is my first and last phone from Huawei. Updates are a disaster. It is not possible for a flagship to have security updates for November, when we are almost in March. I will back on Samsung, i hope to S20 Ultra
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] AndyChecker:
Yep 186 OTA for me too after [MENTION=5482623]SilviuO[/MENTION] 's method ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Glad it worked for you m8 :highfive:. I'm still waiting:p, no OTA/eRecovery or HiSuite update for me ?, but i'll wait, no rush ?, it's only a security patch for January.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
Quick question regarding battery life, how have you set up your app launch ? Is it better for battery life if I manage manually and have Auto Launch, Secondary Launch & Run in background all switched off or will I get better battery life if I let the phone Manage automatically?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] nogeekname:
Anything yet for the New Zealand P30 Pros? VOG-L09 C636. Is it a NZ only model or something? Not even a hint of an update since last October. Seriously thinking of taking them to the Commission over this crappy service. For a Flagship, it's a joke and considering they are in hot water for security, you would think they would take Security patches seriously.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Most of the apps i've let them Manage Auto (Waze, Outlook, WhatsApp, Messenger, Wheather). Other apps like HboGo, Netflix, Brave i set them without any of those 3 enebled and for YouTube vanced, i set it up with Secondary Launch & Run Background.

Anyway, it depends on how you use them dailly :)
