The update is released region by region. You can download another region CSC fom sammobile or samfw.com and flash same via Odin. Hoeever if ever you flash don't use the home csc file but rather the csc file. It will wipe all your data so proceed with backup first.

Worked brilliantly! Sammobile firmware download page has step by step on how to use Odin, followed it after downloading from Frija. Android Q so far is great! I'm in South Africa with a Saudi Arabian version of the phone. But i flashed a European Rom and works fine! Thought this might help some newbies looking for info.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] imapfsr:
I have a bad habit of going through phones like nobodies business and over the years I have owned what most would call too many. In fact the first question my colleagues usually ask me when we have team meetings etc is what phone do you have now? I have had a few favs all the way back to the first Sony CMZ100 to the Xperia Z-Ultra (had a few stares with that one).

I have never gone back to a phone over two years old on multiple occasions. I have bought and sold my Mate 20x twice and this is my third. I just cannot understand why this thing keeps calling me back.

Maybe it’s the beaut 7.2" flat screen (I must admit the Note 10+ almost had me but sold it as I didn’t like the curve).

Perhaps it’s the never fails fingerprint reader on the back that just always seems to work (that in screen one on the Note 10+ seemed to fail me 8 out of ten times).

Could it be the never ending battery life of the Mate 20X which is just fantastic.

Even now, two years later I still find myself picking this phone up and just looking at it and thinking how amazing it is.

Huawei hit it out of the park with this phone and I wonder if we will ever see another Mate..X to replace it...maybe one day we will.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] AWFRONT:
Very well said. I am the same. Get asked by colleagues nd regular clients what phone I have quiet regulary as I change mine very often but have managed to keep my Mate 20X 5G and had the non 5g before for a short period. I must say I still miss my Asus Zenfone 3 Ultra for its powerful dual speaker that to date no phone can match (5g Mate20x only has 1 speaker and the earpiece speaker as a 2nd loudspeaker).

Overall all is good but given the actual phone size of my previously owned Asus ZF3U, I think Huawei could easily offer a larger 7.9"/8.4" display on next version with integrated stylus, independent dualsim+memory card expansion (better dual sim management options inside the notification menu as options/shortcuts) better customisable launcher like the Asus Launcher and finally at least dual but preferably quad speaker setup. Then this phone would be the ultimate productivity and entertainment device.

My phone came with Android 9 and now updated to Android 10, I am loving it even more. I enjoy how apps can be scaled with system wide dpi changes and find that I don't need my laptop for some productivity tasks, which is what these devices should offer given their size.

I really hope we can get Automatic Call Recording working again on the International EVR-N29 5g model as Android 10 took that apk workaround away.

Just imagine having a dual display accessory of the same size for this phone like the LG V60-maybe with the stylus integrated into it, then nothing would match this device on the market.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] BigDisplay:
It's the same here, in 2018 I had 5 phones. Until 2018 I had the Asus Zenfone 3 Ultra, this huge phone I still miss sometimes (still have it).

But since this piece of art, I can't find any other phone which can match it... At all.

I still looks at Sammy S20 Ultra, but some things like the size, no Snapdragon in my county etc.

So I keep my M20X L29 636, with a smile on my face.

Funny you mention that. I was very close to buying the mate 20X. But as soon as news of the new Xiaomi Black Shark 3 Pro with 7.1 inch screen was released I soon forgot about any idea of buying it.

Right now the specs of the BS3 Pro destroy the 20X big time. I can't wait for it to officially come out. When it does I'll judge it against the 20X. If reviews on it meet my expectations I'll quickly forget about any chance of buying the 20X. If not I will buy the 20X. But to be perfectly honest, I think it will demolish the 20X.

Its time that a new big 7 inch screen phone take over as an upgrade. The 20X is definitely getting a bit old now.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] BigDisplay:
Wouuvvvv thx for info, I did not hear about this phone before.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] elcidroyale:
I agree! I almost sold this phone and thank God I didn't!, Yeah so there's new phone that are big but better specs. Who the fook cares! People so concerned about specs and the latest processor, etc. I'm more interested in my own every day usage. So the hottest newest 7 inch phone is faster and has more ram/ storage or a "better" camera. So what! Most people will not notice or need this ****e in their day to day usage. Most reviewers are complaining about stuff that really doesn't matter if you actually take the time to use it. I love this phone!
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Jojokoo:
Correct. I can't wait for the Black Shark 3 Pro to come out also. Definitely a big upgrade from the 20X, big time! It also has wireless charging for its 7.1 inch screen. It'll be the new king of big phones from now on.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] elcidroyale:
Wireless charging??? Like you said, it takes forever. to charge. I have no NEED for wireless charging. People are so lazy they can't use a cable?? That's a reason to upgrade a fantastic phone?? You want a bigger screen?? 8.4 inch phone? The 7.1 inch phone is already a bit heavy in the pocket. SMH. Most people don't think for themselves and allow reviewers, specs and technology trends to dictate what's good for them.

Also it's ridiculous when reviewers complain about no headphone jack. It is clear to me they are just repeating other reviewers say and not actually using the device for any substantial amount of time. Yeah it would be nice if every tech still had headphone jacks. But since they don't and most include an adapter or adapters are a few bucks - who cares. In my day to day usage, the inconvenience of not having a headphone jack (on my other devices) is ZERO.

Most people are too concerned with the latest and greatest tech for their devices rather then thinking for themselves to see what actually matters.

Yes but at least have big proper reason to really upgrade the phone..

Nowadays ppl just doing it because they are being forced or blinded.. Like elcidroyale said..

Who on earth needs crazy camera with unrealistic 100x pointless zoom when nobody goonna even using it? Or nobody normal person orderdinary not even using camera how week is long.??? 5 - 7 photos that's it.. Or when cpu is only like 5% better which you will NEVER ever notice..

And biggest nonsense RAM. Just every one is gimmicked and lured by increasing numbers which not doing anything.. Only longer time of evolving electronic devices will feel the difference or when something isn't working on particular device or support is discontinued..

My laptop from 2015 had its limits as hdmi was outdated and I couldn't run 4k@60 on my new 4k tv.. Now new laptops support hdmi 2.0 so I need to buy new laptop. And yes the picture from old tv is a huge difference + amazing HDR brightness- THIS is real upgrade no one year old phone only.. This phone has still another year or two potential..

My brother stil owns Honor 6 Plus and that's quite old I bought him new sony xiperia 10 and he still doesn't want to get rid of honor 6+

Dude, calm down. How do you know wireless charging on the bs3 pro takes forever to charge when it hasn't officialy come out yet? Then you said the phone is 8.4 inch. Its actually 7.1 inch. Where are you getting all your info from??

You need to seriously research a phone before you smack it around with complaints. I can't believe you said the phone was 8.4 inch when its 7.1 inch. I'm baffled.

You need to accept that the "latest and greatest tech" is now here and is pushing the mate 20 x off its throne. This isn't a competition, its just a comparison of one phone that has all the things the 20x lacks. Imagine holding on to a phone for 7 years when all phones have upgraded and have become the latest and greatest. Time for change.

I've had my Mate 20X for 14 months... I love this phone. No need to upgrade at all. I can see myself using this phone im two and possibly three years time. It really is that good in all areas.

Camera is outstanding. Especially in low light.

Battery is outstanding. Goes for hours and hours... Just cannot kill it!

HDR Amoled screen is fantastic.

The size is perfect!

Peoepe ask even now what phone I have. They love the photos and screen... I tell them and they are like WOW when I tell them how much you can pick them up for now...

Best phone I've ever owned. Hands down... The only thing I don't like is not having ability to install custom ROMs but Emui is simple and lag free.

The only real problem with the phone is that is really really good and they made so good, that there doesn't seem a point in going to a 30X (I guess why they didn't make it) or 40 x. Camera still amazing, screen awesome, battery brilliant. Pretty durable too - I use the standard sideless huawei case and have literally thrown it accidentally across rooms onto hard tiles...

My only real beef is that the bootloader is locked... Which I have lived with and gotten over (ok - not really, still a little triggered by that aspect)
