The messaging app still has a delay when opening a thread a phone with a 2.5ghz quad core CPU and 2GB(dependent on model) of ram shouldn't have a delay in i opening an sms app

Probably. For Germany still nothing. I mean Germany retde.

Yes, exactly...
reteu
Bought in Poland. But the packaging seems to be dedicated for Spain. User manuals were in ES and PT langs.
Now the question is how do dump the update package from /cache partition without root permissions.

For Portugal the update is out too. Downloading.
Well, after the update i lost the sounds for calls, it only show NONE xD

Just checked incall volume, no problems...

LOL NO>>>>>> I bet UK (GB) is !!

@reefuge
Yeah, heard about that. UK and DE users are the only ones in Europe not getting the update yet, right?
After being a Nexus user for years I'm really disappointed. I know it will still be pretty early when I get the update in comparison to other phones but I really miss that Nexus feeling. Unfortunately google decided to make those phones much more expensive now.
Sorry for the offtopic. Let's hope we will get the update and rid off that annoying memory management soon.

it's not as bad as it seems as my 5.0.2 easy installer in signature works on UK and DE (i believe) just converts them to Global models - I will will make versions to convert back when the Official firmware is available:victory:

@reefuge
Saw that and I was thinking about using your script but then I heard that official updates are coming to Europe so I decided to wait. That was last week. If I'd known this would take so much longer I'd have used your script. Whatever, I guess one or two more days are not going to kill me. But I really appreciate your work, thanks for that.
Let's just see who "wins", UK or DE. Since it's not football I guess UK has a chance (sorry, no offense, I just had to )

Yay! lol cant tell as on global given up waiting in UK (GB)

Got it too, today, in France. Had a problem during setup, after Motorola boot animation, the "updating Android" dialog window showed up, optimized half the apps, and then... black screen. After 10 minutes black screen, I force rebooted it, and it optimized the other half of apps and finished booting up, everything is fine. Strange.

How does this version behave regarding the timestamp? Is it still possible to keep timestamp when copying files using the Total Commander on a rooted device?

Lollipop now available

finally people

It's apparently out for the a5ul as well. Just wonder if it's Sense 6 or 7.

Also there is update for some dual sim models out , and its Sense 6

It's Sense 6 still but hopefully soon there will be sense 7 update

The Virgin Mobile US version is in certification stage of Lollipop release as it shows on the software updates page. I have no idea how much longer that would take.
gsmarena.com said that the new UK Sense version is 6.5. Can anyone with the update verify?

Hey everyone. So I've been offered the lollipop update but I'm worried that the update will give me more problems than solutions. So I'm not updating it just yet. I have concerns about battery life getting worse, like how lollipop does to some other phones. So I'll be patiently waiting to see what you guys think, if you've tried it out already.
Also, the update is ~800MB which is kinda crazy. Guess I'll be deleting apps.
Anyways, please tell me how Lollipop is so far! Hope everything is smooth and fine.
Cheers.

Battery life is worse then on kk..

I confirm that the battery life is way worse than kk.
And the power saver notification (card) is so annoying.
I hope there'll be some fix for these.
By the way the lock screen is updatable on play store after the lollipop update.
Dual sim, Eu version here.

I just started getting the "System update available" notification on my VM USA Desire 816 but I don't want to loose root. Has anyone updated while root? What where the results? Will apps that depend on root access work properly? I have way too many questions.

Then wait after and do it the right way. It'll be better that you know your phone isn't going to break and you'll have to mess with it even more to fix it..

Just installed, so far I think it sucks. STILL can't use a different wallpaper for Lock Screen. Thought it was because of 4.4.2 but I was wrong. It is stupid how other HTC phones can do this but this phone can't. Stupid I have to use 3rd party lock screen to achieve this feature. World clock earth is gone also. So far I hate this update.

this update is good we now hav the new stock htc camara the one with the photo booth mode i didnt really tried it out yet but i hope it dont crash which im sure it wont oh and theres no clear allwhen u click on the recents apps button

So much mixed feedback. I keep hearing battery life is better but here people are saying it's worse. Some say it runs better than KitKat, some say worse, and some say they are even. Don't know who to believe

2. How is the performance of the phone ? (Benchmark comparisons, Gaming)

4. Screenshots ? Please ??
5. Can you make a Youtube video review for this ? (You'll get lots of views !! )

Yep. Got mine today too. FL USA. Seems much snappier, and even smoother. I also have more room now on the internal by about 200MB. Nice update.

Yeah, totally snappier and quick--very excited because to be honest, I was a little disappointed by the phone's performance. T-Mobile, MN, USA.

On Verizon wireless in us no update yet thanks for the heads up however

Same for me. Much snappier feeling. It took quite a while to load some apps initially with 5.0. 5.1 is absolutely better. I'm an android Dev and have access to a lot of more expensive phones and am using this for its amazingly great battery (way better than my 2013 moto x . over double for my use ) and to hold me over until 2015 moto x. Not a bad phone all

Will Huawei send nougat OTA or do I have to download it?

I'm not seeing any traditional update software options in the about phone section. How will we receive Android OS updates on this tablet? Thanks.

Well it seems in the moment there just are no updates...
Normally you should get your update via ota (you should see an update option in your "main menu"), except for beta/leaked versions, if they should leak anyhow/anytime...
For now, there are no leaked or official updates for our mediapad m3 :-/

If you Google nougat for Huawei mediapad M3 there are several sites that claim they have the download you can Flash
The only thing in the about phone setting I can find about updates is updating the emui

As I know the update emui menu will also update your android (for example to android 7 + emui 5.0).
I know these sites, but as long as I do not see a link hier on xda, on the huawei news pages or on the huawei homepage itself I think these links are just nonsense.
(For example some of these pages just link every phone available and say "download XXXXX android 7 here"... I would not try to install these... But I also suppose you won't get a real package anyway there.)

Rally don't know if we ever see 7.0 for the M3.
The M2 never received 6.0, and what I heard is that Huawei just doesn't give a fu** about tablet software.

Huawei generally doesn't give a fu** about software updates. My Mediapad X2 GEM 701 never received an update. That's why I had to undergo a hugely complex updating procedure with chinese ROMs modified sh1t.

I just got the new update with October patch. They removed the navigation bar too.

How did you get this patch for your m3? Mine can not find any updates...

Chinese version only perhaps?

Do you mean you can now disable the on-screen buttons or what has changed with that update? Thx!

I think that the NOUGAT OTA will be sent together with the new EMUI 5.0 (this version of its ui layer is based on android 7)... Anyone know an approximate date?

Correct,also it said better chrome operation,so maybe people that had problems running chrome in small format ,now can. I always had mine set in medium text and didn't have a problem. There were other things it said ,basic improvements,etc... I can't really notice any change other than the ability to disable the new buttons. Which like I said ,disables the ability to start split screen. Unless someone can tell me how to do NB it with only the fingerprint scanner......I'm also running Nova free launcher.
Plainly,this tablet is sick as F. I'm coming from a wifi only Xperia z3tablet compact though...... the only reason I bought this just because the camera Hardware had a malfunction on the Sony.

Haha haha,
Yes in a very good way. It's heavier than the z3 compact,and no water resistance,but it's smooth ,fast,and the LTE connectivity is incredible. I always have 5 bars of 4g. Now ,I live in Thailand,and the internet is crap here compared to the USA,so in the states it's probably even better. It was half the cost of a normal flag ship phone too,and it's basically a huge phone. It comes with a screen protector and a case,however the case is Carmel color and hard to look at,but it's growing on me. This tablet charges very fast too.
If your on the fence,buy it for sure.

As far as I read not all CPUs are conform with Android 7.0. The M2 has one of them. The CPU of the M3 is conform so i hope we will see the update soon.
