latest firmware query - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

Hi Team,
New to the mate 10 pro and absolutely love the device. However not familiar with updates for Huawei I think I can update already but don't know what's best, the funky thing or what? I'm on BLA-L09 8*128(C782) is there a newer version, perhaps best to wait etc?

You have the UK version and 128 is the most recent. Unless you pay Funky Huawei to rebrand, in which case there is more recent versions.
Updates seem to arrive about every 2/3 months in the UK, so don't expect another for a couple of months.

Android 7.0?

I see android n was released today. aside from custom roms do you think theres a chance the 5x will get it officially?
Maybe, but not anytime soon, I don't think. Even with the XDA partnership with Honor, I'll say at least 3 months.

i think it would take time,huawei/honor has always been behind others considering updates.
lets see if partenship with xda makes any difference.
I dont think so we wait CM or other Custom Rom .....Huawei very late when to update ...
i would say yes. Nougat was will be the last update most probably this phone could get. It has everything it needs to support android N and moreover it was launched this year... So there are good chances that we will get android 7.
And here I haven't even got the MM update...:crying:

EMUI, at least two months.....a custom ROM, probably a month at max
Depends on your region. If you are in L21, L22 and L24 version you are likely to get it. And remember that this may be the last update which you will get.
The Honor 4x which came with KitKat is now running on MM. So hopefully Honor will update its devices atleast till 2 increments.

considering this am pretty shure it will be updated to emui5, even if it didnt a stable cm rom would do the justice.

If any one of KIW-L21 (or) L22 (or) L24 gets updated to EMUI 5, then you will get it for sure. But it will be months later.

Don't count on it at least on US version. Huawei isn't really supporting this model, hence the rare updates. Maybe the 20 will get more attention.

A real damn shame Huawei are not supporting the Mate 10 better.
It seems the P20 has gotten most of the attention and they are focusing more on that. I take
it the P20 sold more than the Mate 10 series line.
IMO Huawei never really supported the Mate 10 series great.

Mate 10 is getting more support than Mate 9. Same region.
Used to get security updates every 3 to 4 months, now every month.
Got no new features on Mate 9 until Oreo arrived in January 2018, Mate 10 has received face unlock and updated night shot (with 8.1, 960 fps slow mo, new camera UI, GPU Turbo etc promised).
Support is DEFINITELY better this time round.

I agree, nothin to complain about in general. The region delays are a problem though because it seems like it could be avoided easily.

Okay my friend and thanks.
Honestly, I don't think my NXT-L29 will get it. I like Huawei better than Samsung but I bought a Note 9 even though I wanted Mate 10 Pro purely because Huawei is so ****ty with North American updates.

I went from the mate 8 to the mate 10 pro and the update schedule has been okay for the most part. But I have the global variant bla l29. I have been very impressed with the face unlock update and I've recieved the gpu turbo update but since I don't play games much on my phone I haven't taken advantage of it. The night shot update with AI stabilisation is very impressive too.
Huawei have gotten better with software updates for the most part especially when it comes to bringing new features but the update schedule is unpredictable. Atm I have recieved the September patch while my mate 8 hasn't updated in quite a few months and always took ages for updates.
Hi still not available for rom oreo not come

EMUI 9 For Honor 9

Will the honor 9 get EMUI 9? Various reports differ.
They previously said honor 9 will get pie in a second wave.
First wave, for honor 10 / P20 and some others, is now advertised to be coming this weekend, at least for chinese firmwares.
I'd predict q1 of 2019

At least in Germany, maybe more european regions, a Beta is starting today, called DE-Honor9-EMUI9-FUT.
Seems to be limited to 200 users.
Same in Italy with a different name
So, the 200 slots for the German project are filled, now i am curious how this will work out.
Wonder if this is where we start to see project treble being used by honor on the 9

So far I know, treble was introduced with Android 8.0 (Emui 8) on this device.
Treble is being used. That's how I actually go a security update in the month it was issued. (377 on the 28th).

Is the image available somwere and is it possible to install without being a member of the beta group?
well I'm #2 in BETA-Slot and I'm still on "pending", didn't receive beta update yet.
I too had a very early slot (<10) in the beta-project, but right now i cannot even see it in "avaiable projects" anymore, which is a bit strange.
in what firmware you were before entering the beta program? i´m on 377 and the beta doesn´t appear to me.
I was on 377 too ... and unluckily, i still am.
The FR friendly user test also just disappeared from the Beta app. Currently 26 participants so I thought I would be in today
As for me, the (German) Beta still shows in the app, also the message that I applied and it's now on waiting for approval... which will probably never gonna happen, as it says, the 200 slots are already full.

it is the same for me still pending
I'm curious to see if this device and devices which got upgraded to Treble by Huawei will receive more updates than usual (2 major versions on high end/1 version in midrange-low end). If they will continue to follow the old trend, EMUI9 with Android 9 is the last major version upgrade this device will see from Huawei. After the bootloader fiasco they should support at least another major version, to make up for the inconvenience, but we are talking about a chinese money making machine, which only cares about money, so will see.

Considering the Honor 9 being a midrange product, i assume, the now coming second major update already is the "benefit" of project treble. I doubt a third one will reach us, but i would not mind being wrong on that point.

As far as I know yes. I have read people using it on the emui9 Beta.
Emui 9 official build is available in firmware finder for c636 and fh. Soon it will be available for other regions.

Wow im happy about this feature available to Mate 10 Pro.
Do we know how well it works?
There is an article about this on Reddit. Can't copy link though 'cuz I'm new here.
Read the comments too that guy might be right I'm afraid.
Purple10tacle • 1d
I'm fully aware of that and all the other tech articles about this.
They are not true.
They are all based on a single picture released by Huawei. Journalistic misinterpretation or corporate misrepresentation - call it whatever you want, but you aren't getting EMUI 9 today or any time soon.
What really is happening is a roll-out of the final code of the Chinese build of EMUI 9 to the current members of the closed beta test. No final public roll-out, certainly no international roll-out of any kind today.
EMUI 9 is coming, it'll come to you. If you're lucky by the end of the year, but there's a decent possiblity of will come later than that.

Still on EMUI 8.0
ALP-L29 C185 still on EMUI 8.0
I would never buy Huawei anymore.
C'mon , people! The Update would be received by mid December. Which other phones received it, other than the ones that are by default with Android 9?
Or you expect the moment the update is uploaded to the server in a blink of an eye to get it?
Things ain't work this way.
In the Huawei Firmware Finder now...

True, but when I compare how One Plus developers work, it's a shame for Huawei team.
Will the ARCore apps work with EMUI 9 ?
Huawei P20 Pro. No EMUI 9.0 yet. I was under the impression that it was a global launch on 10 November.
