Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could reproduce my problem as I'm pretty sure is a software issue and not a hardware one, I've find some other people in the same situation and I've notified Huawei but I'm still waiting for their response.
The gyroscope is not working properly, not in any VR app in the play store or in google camera when I try to make a photo sphere.
Just open any app that uses the gyroscope and see if it is working at all.
Hope your answer. Thanks in advance.

i'm having this problem since I UPDATED my phone but before the upgrade i could play any 360 video and i could use my VR Headset with my P8 Lite (L21) but after the update (B133) my gyroscope stopped working :/ i hope they fix it because now i can't watch any 360 video :/
There are many video on youtube showing how to calibrate gyroscope. While holding the phone in a certain manner, you must describe with your forearm a 3D 8 in the space slowly. After half a dozen of turns, your gyroscope is calibrate with gravity force.
Cheers
it didn't work
Same problem here, after upgrading the software for ALE-L21C75B0146
Before I was able to watch 360 videos on Youtube by moving the phone.
Now I can't. I have to touch screen.
I am pondering downgrading to V100R001C75B045.

I already tried those apps to calibrate de gyroscope but it isn't working.
Huawei email me back with the usual factory reset crap. That's their brilliant solution.
No gyroscope on p8lite
Or either Huawei P8 lite does not have Gyroscope or they turned it off. I bought mine with the lollipop and does not seem to have gyroscope. Also Huawei p8 lite specification does not list Gyroscope as available sensors which it does in P8's
Around firmware B13X they shut off the the Gyro, though for me it returned with B170 albeit still a bit touchy
i know it does not have a gyro but ahh ... when i had the B130 update i could watch 360 video but with the B133 and B171 update ... i can't :/ my VR headset is useless because of this :/ and this is annoying :/
I bought my p8 lite six days ago and I also have this problem. I tried to make 3D shots with google maps, but it says I don't have gyroscope. This is really annoying. ?
Is there any solution for this problem already????
P8 lite doesn't have a real gyroscope
OK. Maybe it doesn't have a hardware gyroscope and it was solved by a virtual gyro / sensor fusion.
Will it come back with android 6.0?
Is anyone here who know this hardware in depth to check the real built-in sensors? Maybe it's just disabled to make P8 lite weaker in opposite of P8.
Or someone who can make a virtual gyro for it? There's detailed descriptions on the net how to calculate gyro data from accelerometer and magnetic sensor. (But it's a bit tough for me)
For example:
github.com/memsindustrygroup/Open-Source-Sensor-Fusion/wiki/Virtual%20Gyro
http://www.phonearena.com/phones/compare/Huawei-P8-lite,Huawei-P8/phones/9358,9127
Under other feuatures you will se that P8 Lite doesnt have gyroscope at all
Hey guys,
Good news. Even though the gyro is not present in P8 Lite, it can be virtualized using the Magnetic Sensor and the Accelerometer. (Senses movement + Direction = A function of a Gyro).
Guys on the HTC Mania managed to figure it out and fix it! So you can watch 360 youtube videos, etc.

(You will need to translate the page though)
Happy days!
great news man, thx for sharing
If you don't want to translate, or just to lazy to check out the site, i'll post the steps here:
You can only do the steps below, if you have a rooted phone, and downloaded THIS file.
Steps:
Download the file, I've linked up above.
Open up a file explorer with root permissions (I recommend Root Explorer)
Copy the downloaded file to this location: /system/etc/permissions
If done, set the permissions to rw-r--r-- (0644)
Click OK, and restart your phone
You're done. However, based on feedbacks on this, and the HTCMania forum, this will only work on Android 6.0.
I'm currently on 5.0.1, and after doing this, the Cardboard icon appeared in Youtube while playing a °360 video, but it wasn't working well. Rotating the phone with large motions made only a very small, and slow reaction on the phone's image itself.
So if somebody tried this with 6.0 please report back with the results, if it's working well, partially or not at all.
Edit:
In the meantime, a factory reset was on schedule, because my phone got very slow, and I updated to 6.0, and enabled the "VR support".
I can say, that it is working, the phone does respond to movement, somewhat like it should with the gyroscope. I think it's a bit delayed, and not as much accurate as the gyroscope would be, but yes, it definitely works, for sure.
The tutorial in original language can be found HERE.
Its working perfect
I have ALE-L21. Currently on version ALE-L21C432B524 Android 6.0.
Just did what advised by @daviddosa in previous post. And now I can watch 360 movies on Youtube and can play VR Games on my mobile.
Thanks for this wonderful trick.
Best Regards!

Hhi daviddosa
Can you explain what you mean by 'enable vr support' ?
@daviddosa ahogy látom te is magyar vagy meg tudnád mondani hogy miért van az hogy amikor belépek a youtuba akkor tudok nézni 360 fokos videót de nem jelenik meg jobb also sarokba a cardboard ikon (fent van a cardboard alkalmazás) szemüvegbe szeretném nézni a videókat de így egész képet ad és nem ketté osztottat :/
Hi
This is really a warning to anyone who has an Android wear (or probably any other kind of smartwatch)
My Gear LIve and LG Watch R worked perfectly with KK and Lollipop but with MM 522 it just would not work properly at all
i worked with a dev of one of the apps and it was only the Huawei with MM that caused any problems and notifications were just not getting to the watch
MM on a samsung worked no trouble and going back to 5.1.1 on the M7 again worked perfect
I liked MM but i didnt see that much difference to being worth keeping without the watch
So if you are planning on Upgrading and have a smartwatch then you will have issues
I am now back on 5.1.1 and rooted and all works fine
I have Asus ZenWatch 2 and it works with B522 properly. Only issue I have noticed is infrequent unconnecting, about twice a week. But I just run Android Wear app and watch is connected again.
I must admit I'm surprised that's is working OK for you add the tests we got when trying to resolve the issues were all down to huawei and the non standard calls they make and the permissions issues that were occurring
The doze feature in mm seemed to be conflicting with huawei's own features and stopping a lot of the notifications getting through even though those apps were set to protected.
It also seemed to be an issue with 1 app calling another appointment and again even though that permission was granted it still gave us issues.
But I suppose in the end every setup is different and in all honesty I don't think mm was a great step up grim lollipop anyway or at least not on the huawei
Sent from my SM-N920C using XDA-Developers mobile app
I have a Samsung Gear S2 Classic and since I installed MM on my MT7-L09, Samsung Gear app will not not load, it just opens and closes in a flash.
The only way to make it work is to switch off the Bluetooth on the phone, then open the Samsung Gear App, and press connect from the app. This will switch the Bluetooth back on, connects to the watch and the app works.
Weird and very frustrating until I figured out a workaround!

I have a moto 360 2nd gen and works with no issues what so ever with MM, if anything it has become more reliable so it may just be a conflict with particular manufacturers?

I've got the first gen Moto 360. when I updated to MM my watch at didn't receive any notifications (even the test ones). I did a factory reset and everything works fine now. The only issue I have is that sometimes the Gmail app pushes a ton of notifications for the same email.
Is someone having problems with the Twitter app recently.
I noticed that I keep having problems with videos and gifs.
If I press play, half of the times (especially the gifs) it won't start, but if I press on recent apps and open Twitter again the video/gif will start
Is anyone having this problem? Do you think it's related to the app or the phone?
It have a similar issue but it only started yesterday after the twitter app updated.
Strange, after the last update it seems that the problem happen a lot less than before.
Is the app itself. If you activate auto play, this doesn't happen

So if you don't want autoplay the only thing to do is to wait for a fix from Twitter?
it updated last night in the UK (so i guess everywhere?) and it works fine now.
I still have this problem, after the last update it is rarer but it still happens sometime

I'd say yes. Fingerprint ID is definitely there on my phone. Quick charge is a bit harder to measure. It's not charging as fast as it used to do but that can be explained by higher than usual ambient temperatures this summer. It's still reasonably fast though.
Ok then its just me
No fingerprint ID
and also the smart cover doesn't work when opening it
it will not turn the screen on
Even with the right settings
For me fingerprint is on the phone however with quick charge it is a bit slower but this may be due to new features eating up battery.

Fingerprint ID and smart cover working fine for me and on my wife's phone - both on 8.0.0.363
Fingerprint and quick change running fine here.
Although,
I noticed that notifications are now not "scrollable" in the lockscreen, therefore i can't reply from the lockscreen and i have to unlock the phone which is really inconvenient.
This used to work in 7.1. I've tried stock lockscreen and "themed" ones.
Anyone else?
I am running stock 8.0.0.363(c432) on WAS-LX1A.

Hello! I bought my P9 lite second hand about two years ago and have never been able to update it, it just says that thre are none updates available. I switched to a new phone a year ago because of that, but now that i lost my new phone I had to go back to my P9 lite. Now that I've looked more into it, I noticed some strange things like the "about" tab displays wrong specs about the phone, that it only has 4 cores on the cpu, 1GB RAM and a 540x960 screen: [MG]https://imgur.com/a/3WhxaX3[/IMG]
I tried to update through HiCare too, but it also said that there where none updates available. What is even more strange is that acording to HiCare EMUI version is 4.1 [MG]https://imgur.com/a/f0OoKpd[/IMG]
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Here are photos of my phone for people doubting that it actually is a P9 Lite [MG]https://imgur.com/a/Whg9HIv[/IMG]
