Hello. I just got my m8 today. I did UL bootloader and rooted the chinese version 156 which came with OTA. The only problem I get is that i cannot sync google contacts. Everything else is working great. Is there any way or do I need to flash the international firmware?
PS If I need to update to a newer version (I saw 165 came out but i didn't get it today) is there a way to flash a newer rom without losing all data through TWRP?
PS2 One other problem i encountered: I tried to install sygic navigator from play store but it forcecloses the entire google play!!! This happens only at this app...
u wont get any ota updates on a modified system @unlocked bootloader & root, so ull have to flash manually every time or revert back to full stock.
concerning google apps and services, ull need to manually add those to the chinese rom (check the B156 rooted thread, the necessary apk files are attached to the OP)
as for flashing updates, it is indeed possible to "dirty flash" a rom over an existent one, but be prepared for potential hiccups / issues / functional resets in that case. best thing is to always to a proper clean flash with your data backed up on a different location (i.e. laptop).
the play store FC is probably due to the app size. check permissions of google play store app and activate permission for storage, that should solve the FC...

Thanx for your reply. I see... As far as the google contacts sync is concerned, I tried creating a GoogleContactsSyncAdapter folder in the system/app folder and copying the apk in there but after the reboot still no sync... Am I doing something wrong? (I did a workaround here as well, i restored the contacts from a csv file but now i don't get cloud backup)
When flashing future updates do we use the TWRP in order to flash the stock roms? I haven't tried that's why I ask. I usually do a full wipe when I flash updates. About the play store i gave it full access, but before that i did a workaround and backed up the prog from another device and restored it to mate8... I will probably see on the next update of the app.

I got it to work... I am not sure what was the reason... I uninstalled it completely and then installed the latest app I saw online and gave permissions and rebooted and the apps are there Thank you all.
The problems fixed. Can someone please answer to the first q about how to flash latest versions since I am rooted-twrp? Are the versions I find in the android development flashable by TWRP? I mean the untouched versions not the custom roms. I am happy with the performance of the stock rom.
some are flashable via twrp, others through the stock huawei erecovery, others again are flashable via fastboot. gotta check the package contents and file types...

Guys how often does contacts sync takes place? I put a contact yesterday at about 18:00 and it doesn't show up at the gmail contacts. Probably due to the fact that if I go to google account it says it synced last yesterday at about 17:15. I know that I can force sync it but I don't want to have to do that every time I add a contact.
I also have the AL10 and I didn't unlock and rooted my phone and didn't receive the B165 rom yet either. My latest rom is still B156.

There is a thread in the forum with the exact procedure. http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/guide-unlock-bootloader-root-install-t3301371
Hello everybody.
I recently purchased a Chinese Mate 8.
While the Play Store and Google Services were up and running when I received it, contacts where not syncing.
I download GoogleContactsAppSync and solved that BUT I can't sort them by surname, how am I supposed to do that?
Please help, I can't get my head around that!
Thank you
Same here with Sygic. My phone is a chinese one, model NXT-AL10, no root, bootloader locked.
When Sygic is loaded, playstore is force-closed. Sygic can be loaded via Amazon appstore but the "restore"-function does not work.
Moreover, OsmAnd+ navigation does not work properly. It can be opened but no map is shown.
Anyone uses Sygic and OsmAnd+ with Huawei Mate 8 chinese successfully? Should we contact Huawei?

Go to google play at apps and give all the permissions. I think when I had chinese rom that fixed it...

There is only one app in the google play store that I cannot install. the playstore FC. Granted full permission too. Hmm...
Edit: fixed by granting permission to storage for the Playstore. :S

I have same problem, cannot use my Gear S3 now, funny is that S health works at non Samsung rooted devices :/
Some say to uninstall s health and install a previous version.. to open it and set it up and then to update the app
Check your knox. Its probably 0x1.
Knox is tripped ofc after root, i tried to unistall app but i cannot get it unistall, tried app from play store and link2sd to unistall it but it still there so if i try to flash older version i get error saying that file is corrupted.
Flashing official ROM using Odin does not trigger Knox (at least it shouldn't). I have the same problem after flashing official 7.0 ROM and my Knox Counter is NOT triggered (it is 0x0000).
I cannot uninstall or downgrade S Health since it's a "default app".
Any workarounds?

If knox is triggered then:
- make a root
- remove S health with Titanium Backup
- install older version S health before version 5
- launch app, sync account and then update to new version of S health
Working, tested one hour ago, i had this problem after flashing and rooting 7.0 stock rom.

Hi
I've just come across this problem upgrading to Nougat today. I'd like to try your suggestion but how do I find an older version of S Health like you suggest?
TIA
Just found 4.8.1. I'll give it a go.

I had to try three versions. Two kept saying they were corrupt when trying to install. I managed to install the third but, when I try to sync, I keep being told the server is temporarily offline. I suppose that may be true but I doubt it.
And now whenever I try to open the app, it freezes and the only way to open it is to clear the data in the app settings.
So I think it's back to Marshmallow for me for now. I need S Health for my Gear S3.

I tried going back to Marshmallow but after I boot the Galaxy S7 it asks for a code. I have no idea what to do next because no code seems to work.

Have you checked if it's tripped or are you just guessing? Are you on your phones official firmware or did you flash different firmware in Odin?
I think it's not compatible with N.
I flashed MM after trying RR, and then it worked just fine. Strange though, Samsung should be able to get their apps working.

Yes only Chinese firmwares.
With all these updates there was never once with any fix for the notification issues. I got a feeling this is not in the software team's agenda. With my usage, I got notifications quite regularly with the native email app and the Google news update notifications quite regularly if check on these app every now and then. However if I happened to leave for a while,then it will kind of go into deep sleep and completely shut off. This can be a plus or minus, cause it can save the battery quite considerably, depend on how one looks at it. Probably with my usage pattern I can live with it.
Installed it last night. Thanks for the changelog, I couldn't read it, because it was in Chinese. I haven't noticed any difference either. Most Chinese users will only be interested in QQ and WeChat notifications, which seem to work fine
I starting to believe something is wrong with my mate 9 (MAH-AL00) last OTA I recevied was B167 and I've been checking on a regular basis in system update and no firmware updates appear (missed 173 and now 175)

Did you checked with wifi and 4g?
Did you tried hicare with China region?
Did you tried the 3 dots in system update to download latest full package?
If you tried all this maybe a factory reset can get you the update,but don't blame me if you didn't find the update.

So maybe try factory reset, I know it's weird but i usually get updates after a factory reset.
Maybe because my apn settings will be the default one,not sure.
You can also update manually with firmware finder application from playstore.

man factory reset is something I have done in a while and not sure if it will delete my data or settings and since I'm not rooted installing and configuring everything again will be painful,
I downloaded just now and I can see the update in the list but it appears with 0.0 MB in both options listed.

Sorry no idea,but as far as i know Chinese firmwares are easy and fast to get, not sure why ur not so lucky,and yes factory reset will wipe ur data and settings.
If you decide to do a factory reset, try reset settings first maybe you got luck there.
i went to the settings for firmware updater and enable updates via system update, went and try to check for updates and now I got the notification for the 175 update, I installed it and I can see if a little bit faster with some apps, problem now none of my google apps works is asking me to install core GMS again

I can not go into the pick up and install ROM. I have an unofficial firmware and with the combination of vol + and power does nothing. please help
It's a matter of timing. I had to try it several times until I got the timing right.

Why would you want to update to this July version?
I guess you must be already having Google Play Services and Google Play Store installed in your phone?
The July update is basically for users without Google Play Services and Play Store.
After installing this ROM you will have to download Play Store APK and install manually.

Neck. I have all the services of google plays ... i heard July bug fixes in Camera and language so i want to update.
Key for me is to get the power on pin security setting I believe came with may update... I am still on April security patch with play services installed... But never getting updates. Hoping the update would also get the pin option and latest updates should start downloading in the future. Is this not the case?

The update is now approved for installation!
Make sure you download the OTA with the biggest file size, the other OTAs failed the installation.
I got the October security patch and EMUI was updated to 5.0.1

Can you please tell me what is your build number ?
I just tried the HFF proxy method with the three OTAs on my L51C432 but all failed after 15 % of installation (after the reboot).
Did anyone else succeeded ?

My build number before the update was NEM-L51C432B355 then it updated to B357. Are you sure the update didn't work? When my installation went to 50% I got the installation failed error then it rebooted, but I checked the about phone page and my build number changed so the update was applied successfully even though the installation failed.
Check your about phone page to see if it updated.
BTW im using Elite ROM V6 now.

Good evening, are you using the proxy to the end? I have to remove it once the download starts otherwise it says "unstable connection". The download is going well but do I have to give the proxy for the installation? Thank you and good evening

You need to leave the proxy on during a firmware finder download. You can change it back after the update is applied.
Thank you it worked perfectly. I didn't need to reset the proxy. On the other hand the download took hours!
Works perfectly, but I had to re-unlock my bootloader.
Maybe not related, but I can't update the Google Play Services to 11.7 after unlocking because of different signature. I had to restore a backup from Titanium Backup to get the last version. Is it just me ?
