mate 20 pro firmware 9.0.0.166 - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi,
I heard that there is a new firmware update the one mentioned above, did anyone get the update and can post a change log of the changes?

I've seen mentions of 166 and even 171 but I'm still on 146 since I got the phone 2 weeks ago and did the first upgrade from 122.
Canadian M20P.
Hoping for camera fixes (less aggressive sharpening mainly and video letdowns) plus a few quirky bugs (I loathe the crippled functionality of the so-called "smart case").

i hope that camera fix comes in.. otherwise this might have to go back. The camera is very over hyped just like the mate 10 pro was. Even my old Honor 8 produced better shots.

What issues? I'm on 171 maybe I can tell u

What have you noticed? I noticed that scene detection doesn't work as well . Basically only picks up sky, greenery and that's kind of it?

Happy to hear about .171, I'm still stuck on .127 on Bell's network in Canada...

How is selfie and portrait mode now? Is it more natural?

Of course it isn't I'm still looking like a soft skinny boy, but it's better

As long as it is getting better ? we are slowly getting there so it was a software thing and has nothing to do with hardware?
Are u from Germany? I'm from Germany but still didn't got the update

I have the 171 from funkyhuawei because I wanted to unlock my bootloader
Jeah it's definitely a software thing, but it's getting better, slowly but steady )

Mi A2 : Grainy Videos After Update

Hi guys,
I just fastboot flashed my MI A2 to the latest September update because somehow I wasn't receiving OTAs since I purchased the phone.
However, after updating it, I noticed considerably more grainy videos and its also visible in daylight. I am not sure if it's just my imagination or anyone else facing the same issues? The photos are OK though.
Is this kinda issue possible after an update? Thanks in advance.

Quality control seems to be bar at xiaomi. Guess that's why they pulled the update. Other people are also reporting problems with the camera

At least no one o the August update is seeing it anymore. It's just a speculation on my side.

How can you pull it back?
I just checked video (with the update), pretty sure there are 2 differences, but 'grainy' isn't necessarily one of them.
Did video resolutions change? I don't remember 4k30fps being there or even 1080p60fps? The other thing I *think* is different is the PDAF was working before and now AF doesn't happen (that's for sure). You can touch a focus point and that works, during the video, but pretty sure it was doing that itself before.
Once it's focused, for me anyway, it's very clear.

I guess the only way for me to find out is to directly compare the vidz btw my mom's phone and the problem phone when I see her over the weekend. This bugs me so much.

Had [email protected] before. [email protected] came with the August update. AF during recording works for me with the September update.

Hmmm, so just tested again, AF is working! How bizarre. Guess it goes to show one should always close app, maybe even reboot, and test again, just to be sure.
So I have finally compared the video of my phone to my mom's which is not updated. Apparently it was just my imagination. Been too used to the vastly superior video quality of the OP6. LOL.
Sorry guys for the false alarm.

wondering the same mate ?? kinda keen to try myself
https://9to5google.com/2019/06/19/emui-9-1-0-178-p-30-pro/
Well I'm rooted and flashed with EMUI Flasher Tool.
177 is newer than 178! No more difference just a number difference like always published by Huawei. Flashed today everything working fine and smooth.:good:
Thanks,
goldybewon
Hi, i have today installed 178 and for start battery goes down faster than on 161.
How is with 177?
Cheers
Yes. Battery seems to go down faster on this one and I also noticed a little weaker signal reception. That might be a problem.
I will try tonight after work 177 if that acts same then back to 161.
I was surprised with battery on 161, 2 days with heavy use now not sure about this fw
After s10+ with sd855 p30 pro holds first few days well or it's a just placebo effect now.
Cheers
Well the signal strength issue was really bad for me. I had a lot of missed calls due to the phone not ringing. Where I've got usually 4 bars, now I had 0-2. Some of my calls didn't make it through. Trying to flash back .161
so funny
Flashed back 161 all ok now

Yeah, that's a huge update size. Maybe there are some ,,under the hood'' updates. Let's wait and see what ,,goodies'' it will bring before the Q (EMUI 10) update

Yep, you're right. But as i've seen on Beta Q video from YouTube, beside a tweaked visual experience with slightly altered icons and UI elements alongside the new system-wide font, better multitasking and the camera app redesigned with some more functionality alongside with GPU Turbo 4.0 and the second gen ARK Compiler i don't think we will get something else, at least not for 2-3 firmware updates on Q. But let's wait and see, maybe they will surprise us with some improvements on camera overall

That's why they will launch Mate 30 PRO, with new camera lens and different algorithms and chipset Kirin 985/990 which will support 60fps/4K video and so on ...?
On the other hand, i would appreciate if the Huawei team responsable for camera optimisations for P30 PRO could take a lesson from the OnePlus team, which released 4 firmware updates for One+7 Pro and really done a good job.

A buddy of mine has One + 7 Pro. He told me that since buying his phone he received some updates that significantly improved his photo quality (compared to the OOB firmware). Now we know everyone has an opinion about the quality of the pictures and praise their cameraphone, but apart from the S10 + after the new camera software update, the P30 pro does not have a rival .

I'm too on c431 178 firmware but no update. Would be nice if you can share it.
According to Phone Arena post on Instagram, Honor 20 PRO got the same update size (check link and attached photo). That's a weird and unusualy big update
Could it be something to do with the current US sanctions against Huawei, so they possible could have completely decopuled Android in case Google can't provide assistance in the future?

Screenshot?

Try to disabled it via ADB, it might work.
Use these commands (make sure you enabled ADB in developer options) :
adb shell
Pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.entitlement
Not just me then, this seems to be a wider thing. There's hardly any info on what the process actually does. I mite have a go at uninstalling it
Uninstalled. No I'll effects so far
Maybe some debugging service that Huawei left by mistake?
New 311 Patch
Ok, info for all who using 311, new patch just come out, and looks like this one killing entitlement. See attached photo.. , hope all will get it soon.. :good:
Lucky you all, i haven't got the update to 9.1

Yup. I had to make them understand that the device was actually Australian, not Indonesian coz I had flashed Indonesian firmware on it. Other than that things went fast.
