Hello,

After a month of utilisation, I have some remarks and questions about this phone :

Remarks

1. Laggy camera but Gcam does the job. Camera quality is very good perhaps slight lower if not on par than with my previous Huawei P20. I'm happy with it

2. Selfie camera is good but I don't use it a lot

2. Battery life is solid :) 2 days of battery life easily

3. Screen is OK even though it's 720p

4. Fingerprint sensor is horribly slow than P20

5. Voice call quality is okay but can be bad sometimes (probably related to my mobile operator, sound is good in whatsapp call and messenger call)

6. Mobile network connectivity okay but it takes time to shift from 3G to 4G :/

7. No VoLTE option by default. We have to activate it with *#*#weirdcode#*#* and sim is HD compatible message all the time (this is corrected in new update)

8. VoWiFi option isn't present. It seems that we have to activate With again *#*#weirdcode#*#* but doesn't work. With my previous P20, I have both VoLTE and VoWiFi and was very useful especially VoWiFi

9. Lowest brightness is super high to use in dark environments. Hello eye strains

10. GPS is ok but can't grab UE Gallileo signals. Gallileo is a lot more precise than GPS, Russian and Chinese GNSS.

11. No step counter

Questions

1. Have anyone has successfully used VoWiFi with A3?

2. It seems that there is a chip for pedometer but apparently not counting the steps. Had anyone has the same problem?

Cheers
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] natanfranghieru:
Using VoLTE and VoWIFI normally here in Brazil, but I had to activate with the weird codes.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] wesleywts:
Thanks for the detailed sharing.

Oh no, bad call quality? I can tolerate the display and FP sensor but call quality is going to be a deal breaker.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] greenpays:
What code did you used for VoWifi?

Call quality isn't bad all the time but multiple time , I noticed that the call quality was so bad that I was obliged to guess what people were talking about. By the way, it never happened to me with P20 for almost one and half year.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] natanfranghieru:
*#*#4636#*#*

*#*#86583#*#*

*#*#869434#*#*

I really don't remember the order.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] fradav:
Now that's weird, because there is several reports that the loudspeaker, even it's just a mono, is best-in-class. Myself I find it surprisingly loud, clear and capable, much better than some notebook's speakers for example.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] greenpays:
Thannks for the codes, vowifi was already activated but doesn't seems to work. Do you have any notifications at your status bar for vowifi ?

Yes, you were right :) when i play with video with youtube, the loudspeaker are very good with clear sound. Perhaps, i have just problem with my network :/

Do anyone has the step countre working ?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] rtmadeira:
Por favor, o seu funciona 4G+ ? Minha operadora é a Claro, funciona no Mi MIX 2S, mas nesse só aparece 4G!

Dá para perceber a diferença nos medidores de velocidade.

Tem como habilitar no MI A3?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] laviniu_c:
the *#*# codes are counterintuitive. they need to be ran and the corresponding carrier check should be left DISABLED to always try the default volte/vowifi profile.

with the options enabled it will always try to find a specific profile for your carrier.

P.S. and after you "enable" (i.e. disable the carrier check) you also need to enable the wifi calling in the settings menu, network - advanced: wifi prefered.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alexthekiller1993:
When you disable carrier check for wificall, a new option will be available at phone app>settings>calling accounts>Sim1 "Name" and then wifi calling.

Also, if you like lower brightness try a new app called "screen dimmer (dims notifications too)" which dims everything.

Not in my time.

Now that they have locked bootloader and all, the fun is over and so I am heading elsewhere.

It's sad.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] RabidWolve:
Great hardware let down locked boot loader and software + support.

Going elsewhere.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] revjamescarver:
Mate 30

No thanks, I'm going to a different brand. Since Huawei now has a locked bootloader, not Google certified, and will have no service or support (or warranty) it's time to move on. I was considering it for a while but since it has been confirmed that Huawei devices will no longer be able to use Google (play store, Gmail, etc.) It's not worth it.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] domy_os:
IMO, kicking out all Google sh!t and leaving the OS core can be only the positive side and big step forward because I use nothing of Google apps. :D
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Haroun:
Nope, simply because it has a notch and curved screen, it ain't my cup of tea, and also if U consider what's going on with Google.

I'll keep the 20 for at least one and a half year. Don't see much of a reason to upgrade yearly nowadays.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] kuailan:
In my opinion I think Huawei make a good product and compete well with the best out there including Samsung and Apple. Unfortunately until we know for certain their US related issues and Android relationship in the long run, I don't think it's worth investing your top dollar on their flagship. For me this may be my first and last flagship from Huawei. I would definitely jump back again if everything has been clear and certain.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Daniehabazin:

well, the only thing I love are the quick charge and camera, lack of development is the main reason, I love lineage os to much.... I realiste that when I was stuck on emui hahahaha
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mudnightoil:
AOSP and no Google would be a dream for many here (GApps can always be installed if needed), and the removal of a lot of the EMUI & Google cruft would be awesome.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Hazzay88:
No point buying a phone of this value if it doesn't come with the essential Google apps.

Pixel 4 XL or Xperia 2 here I come
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] cfds:
I am happy with the Mate 20 pro, I would jump ship if real life reviews (not the reviews given by you tubers which are handed the devices by Huawei for the purpose of "coloured" reviews) confirm a major upgrade on the camera's over the Mate 20 pro. I came from the Mate 10 and the camera on the Mate 10 gives me sometimes pictures like a oil painting, not happy with its camera so the upgrade to the Mate 20 pro was huge.

Going back on topic, as much as I dislike Apple, Samsung and google and their policies - being realistic they are all out there to sell their product and Huawei is not different and going in the same direction like Apple and co I welcome the opportunity of showing google they are not the only ones out there (except for Apple) offering an operating system for mobile devices. I would love to see an alternative. I believe I have to see in how far I can live without google services and how expensive the phone is. I believe it would be a matter of time before developers have alternatives for the major applications. I will follow closely the development on this subject, by the time the Mate 30 pro has reached an affordable price I am willing to spend we will know where we stand concerning google and its possibilities. So time will tell.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] solitarios.lupus:
Except they are not allowed to use AOSP either. Also with more and more being put into play services which can be blocked device wide by a server switch. I wouldnt count on installing google apps. One fast device check and boom the device is blocked from the play store.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mudnightoil:
Complete nonsense.

[MENTION=2218786]JazonX[/MENTION] Does the phone have to unlock bootloader before following your guide?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] abunhyan:
Do i havd to unlock the boatloder to flash this?

Nothing written about this in the instructuion above??

Can u explan more!! And can i have OTA update after this or flash full Rom from ASUS offical site for updae?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] JazonX:
* No Need to unlock Bootloader beforehand.

* As long as the bootloader is not unlocked, You will continue to receive FOTA on official non-rooted firmware.

* If FOTA is not possible, You can always manually update using the ASUS Webpage.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] abunhyan:
Thats realy great news for all ROG 2 user?

What about OTA updates?

Do you think that the bugs of WW rom (dual band wifi) is software related ?

Enviado desde mi ASUS_I01WD mediante Tapatalk
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] JazonX:
OTA Updates : Gotta wait till the next one to check. However, I Can assure you it works after relocking the bootloader.

Dual Band WiFi - It's a common misconception.

Dual Band WiFi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) Both are working fine.

I have attached a screenshot from my device running WW firmware for your reference.

What's not working is Dual WiFi (Storm Network Acceleration) - Which is a gaming feature under Armoury Crate. This function allows you to connect to two separate WiFi networks.

This feature is not visible in WW Firmware and even on the Chinese firmware this gets disabled after first reboot as it's still in beta. (Also attached a Screenshot)
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] bloodydawn01:
Thanks JazonX.

Sorry , I'm thinking to get the Tencent version and i want to be sure.

Could you check if you have the B20 LTE band after the conversion?

I don't know if LTE bands are software related ir not :S

Thanks for your support.

[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] xterminater07:
wait i'm confused, if you don't unlock the bootloader and flash the ww version, why would you need to relock the bootloader afterward?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] abunhyan:
Thats only if u did unlock ur boatloder before for rooting or trying the first 21 files methods :)

So... U need to relock ur boatloder to active OTA update...

But if ur phone is unteched CN firmware device ...its just of doing what is mentioned whitout doing anything to the boatloder ..

You should consider when publicly sharing raw files and flash instructions. Asus will have more stringent measures for later versions, many such cases!

Can people check on both the stock China ROM and the WW ROM if it’s passing SafetyNet specifically the CTS Profile.

I am on the stock China ROM, unrooted and with a locked bootloader and for some reason it fails SafetyNet with a CTS Profile Mismatch. As a result my banking app isn’t working. Thanks.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
It passes with flying colors!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Bilhouse:
Thank you Rashad!

I dont know why it has failed on my end then?

I flashed the RAW CN firmware. The bootloader is locked because I have Widevine L1 and its obviously not rooted.

What steps did you go through when flashing the CN Firmware. Maybe I missed something along the way.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
I didn't flash any of the raw roms. I am using the stock rom which came with the phone also I am on the latest updates. You can check my profile signature.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] attachsnow:
If your phone is CN version and flash WW rom. You need to "ROOT" and use script to modify fingerprint prop to get CTS profile pass.

But when you Unlock your device, Widevine L1 will change to L3. For now we cannot pass both when we convert to WW rom.

If you want to pass CTS profile, see as following step:

Download latest rom img file: (Output_WW_16.0622.1907.33_0)

Hi. Thanks for your reply. I am on the CN ROM but unlike Rashad my CTS Profile is still failing despite being bootloader locked.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] standupdad:
Like you, I'm on stock ROM, but WW, but it fails though. O root or modified bootloader.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] DanXbix:
Mine is locked on latest ww ota rom manually flashed and fails on CTS
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
My guess the merchant who sold you the phone flashed the raw WW firmware over the default original CN rom causing the SafteyNet check to fail.

It really doesn't matter what raw rom you have on your device as long it has replaced the original rom that came with the device the SafteyNet check will always fail. You have two options by now I guess either to wait for a solution without root or to root as [MENTION=814850]attachsnow[/MENTION] suggested to pass the CTS profile consequently passing the SafteyNet test.
