Hoory, just got OTA update for L29C636B172 :) - Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion

I was on MHA-L29C636B158, and I check for update everyday, but always get nothing. I have a disabled prepaid China Unicom SIM-card in 1 of the SIM slots, left there from my business trip to China last week. I just enabled it and went back to update, and there it is MHA-L29C636B172 update, 447MB size. The Change log is "This update optimizes system performance and stability". The list of Optimizations "Optimize system performance and stability for smoother operations. Optimizes power consumption for longer usage."
It's installed and came back up in a few minutes... didn't notice anything different... I guess I will see in a few days.

Someone want the link to download : Check this blog with Download link and guide.

For me here in Greece there is no update.. I'm still to B158.. I check every day twice with no luck... I come from Chinese rom debrand to C636 and I don't want to force an update... I want to see it automatically come to my device in my country (Europe) with 2 Greek sim cards.... Let's see...

well, it has been more than a week since I got the 172, I can't really tell any noticeable difference from 158. Except the annoying "audio recording" warning problem with Skype/WhatsApp came back and this time I somehow can't fix it by disabling a whole bunch of Google voice search settings... sad

same to me, in usa, no luck so far...

In Singapore using M1 sim card. No OTA yet

Got the OTA on C636.
The music controls (spotify) now shows up normally on the lockscreen.

It's a lot smoother and the battery lasts a little longer....

New T-Mobile firmware update is being pushed out

N915TUVU1ANK3
Just installed it, and everything is running great.
Maybe this is the battery update that the Note 4 received right after release?

I just turned on my phone a few minutes ago and saw the update.
Honestly, I wanted to check here on the XDA forum first to see who installed the UPDATE for the phone, because frankly, after the recent Lollipop UPDATE that Google sent out to their Nexus line of devices, and the HUGE DRAMA with system BUGS, I'm leaning toward conservative -- even though I know this isn't a Lollipop O/S update.
UPDATE: I found the link on T-Mobile's website, and they say, "This update provides Chinese language support"
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-18152
Went ahead and allowed the update to be applied but because I have already rooted it the update wouldn't take.

That's it? Language support? I installed it hoping it was a battery improvement like the note 4 got straight out the box. This sucks if true.

Just a few more days and I will get home to my Edge that is sitting in its box. After setting it up I am going to use your root method.
Saw the update this morning when I got up and this popped up in the googletron. I know it's for the Note 4 but I'm wondering if any of this garbage will happen post update... Anyone have any issues like stated in the article?
http://www.tmonews.com/2014/12/t-mo...e-malware-installing-apps-without-permission/
Please note that I am not rooted yet, had an issue with my accelerometer with my first Edge and I'm giving this a few weeks to see if anything crops up first.
My girl got this is morning. Nothing on my phone but i havent check either. I always wait until i get the info on xda first.
But with it just being language support i doubt i will be looking for it.
But im also willing to bet its a patch for something and they just dont want to say so.

Hi, feel like an idiot having to ask this but I'd rather be an idiot with a working phone than one without. Anyhow when you say update via ODIN, which slot am I putting it in to? Or maybe the better question is where in the CF Rooting process does the zip or rather md5 file get flashed?

That would be step -1 (step negative 1) right before step 0... You will start by flashing via Odin the newest NK3 firmware... Then continue the whole guide. Any questions, just ask.

Ota vky-l09c432

Which is the last official OTA checking from update system for this model VKY-L09C432?
I have had only the OTA 123. But I see with ff also 125 and 130 but not from system update.
Thanks
Updates seem to be pushed by location. If youre outside of the intended c432 area, you might be waiting awhile. You could try VPN, or there is always funky Huawei

Which region / location are you in?
Just Unboxed my unbranded P10+ , and out of the box its on 120.. but no b130 OTA.. ... Im in UK, which is c432 region.. but as Goranock pointed out.. Huawei do OTA via location..
You could try downloadiong Huawei's HiSuite and trying an update
Im a little cautious about manually flashing Hauwei roms... I used to have a P9, but flashing a stock C432 Rom on a stock C432 device changed it to a C900.. which renders it useless to Stock OTAs and Android Pay.. according to some XDA modders.. the C900 on the P9 was a test / safe mode rom.. not a consumer rom,, so be careful .. although I cant say what the P10+ would do, but Im net messing with any Hauwei roms.. Ive even read of folk flashing a stock rom.. and bricking their P9.... just a word of caution
Hope UK gets it soon
I am a bit puzzled that the updates are not more of an issue here. I think it's really annoying that currently there seem to be no other ways for manually initiating the update than to use (the way too expensive) funkyhuawei or to unlock bootloader. Did anyone manage to successfully initiate an update by using a VPN and if so what location do I use to do so?

Yes, thank you, I know about that way though but the thing is I dont want to even have to unlock the bootloader in the first place, even if it ends up being locked/relocked afterwards. Personally that's just too much of a hassle just to install updates in my book. But since you said you are from Italy and you obviously already have received the update I'm gonna try and use an Italian VPN to try and see if I can at least upgrade to B123 then. Even though I feel that's a bit ridiculous now that not only B130 but also B133 seems to be out already. By the speed they are distributing their updates OTA I'm probably not gonna till B133 by autumn or something...
Edit: nope, tried several European countries, obviously VPN doesn't help...
Just wondering : what's the changelog for B133 ?
Pretty new to Huawei's firmware here... on the russian FF site I don't see it.

Android Security: 5th of june.
Haven't figured out what else changed yet.
It was ~200mb larger than previous update (B182) so something else should've changed too.
On-Body Detection seems to be something new.
Apparently it can detect your "body" and stay unlocked when you're holding/carrying the phone, and will lock when you set it down somewhere.
"On-body detection can't always distinguish between you and someone else. If someone takes your device while it's been unlocked, they might be able to access it."

Hi! I have the C432B182 right now, the only way to update was via Firmware finder and the proxy addon. Updated about a month ago from B126 to B182 with the full ota, all stock, no root either.
Now, in firmware finder i have the B184 update, not B185. I have the L09 c432 europe single sim. Did anyone receive that B184 o recommend to wait for the B185 version to be available?
As i read here, the changelog is very repetitive but there must be some changes apart from security update to June.
Thanks in advance!

It popped up as one of those to-do things at the top in Settings (Where it asks you to customize wallpaper etc.)
I can't find it other than that to-do...
It was named Smart Lock something. And is apparently a Lollipop feature so it's not really new. But I haven't seen it before.
I wiped everything before flashing so it didn't keep any old settings.

You can run 'md5sum' on glgps4774 and check the Broadcom string version.
This data for 2 previous versions was posted in the GPS thread before.

Not sure how to get the string version, but md5 does not match the other ones in that thread.
Code:
HWMHA:/vendor/bin # md5sum glgps4774

Edit: Checking in nano I get this: Broadcom GLL ver. 64.19.20 279029
Same version as B182.

Once you get the notification for system update on your phone, it will automatically be available on Hisuite.
Make sure to back up user data before flashing any update as you may need to manually perform a factory reset before using the new update. I own an FRD-L14 US version and i am on the latest update for my model thanks to Huawei Pc suite. All other methods always fail after 5 - 10%.
To update using Hisuite, simply launch the PC software and click on update after properly connecting your phone. I have been referring to only the PC version as i can't vouch for the phone software.
NB: Don't forget to flash stock boot and recovery if you've modified your device prior to using Hisuite otherwise it'll fail after reboot to recovery.
Best of luck, Cheers!

thanks for awesome guide i will definetly try this:good::highfive:
You will get the OTA some weeks later. Until then, you will not be able to flash the update through any official means (like using HiSuite, TWRP, erecovery, etc.). If your bootloader is unlocked, try my "Flashing unapproved Firmwares" guide for Honor 8 in Guides section. It will work flawlessly.
Did anyone already successfully manage to install e.g FRD-L19C432B399 ?
I tried dload, Red_lotus and flashing with FRD_RECOVERY_NoCheck.img
Yet it always tells me "installation failed" Is there anything i can do to get it work?
I am coming from B398 and need this battery optimization update or I will sell my phone..

flash the both recoveries again and retry, it resolved the issue for me.
i updated from b360 to this via redlotus and it works flawlessly.

i took the day to reply because i wanted to play it safe before i tell you how battery life is.
i've been getting 12+ hour battery life on my usual days, if i'm out and about doing things i last 10ish hours.
the update seems to be a little better on the battery side, but november patches are nice as well.

Nice to hear about it. For 12h you mean global usage or screen time? Anyway I sent my phone for battery replacement. We'll see when it comes back

sorry about the late reply, but yes 12hr battery global. for screen on time i get 4-5hrs usually, i just got this phone a few months ago as a FRD-L04. i rebranded because of how slow updates come out on the L04, which was my real only complaint with this phone. battery life is awesome and emui is sleek and nice compared to other OEM android roms.
i don't really care for much about SOT because my whole goal is to minimize that as much as possible. i use a moto 360 daily so most of my notifications are going to my watch and my phone stays in my pocket.
other than that, this update is just a security patch.
