Each region receives OS updates at different times. You should receive yours soon. The android 10 OS update release for the N960N was a few months behind the German N960F release date

Hi what font is that please? Really like it.
Canada should get it sometime before the Note 20...
hi guys. just received the wonderful update
but looks like not so wonderful
some apps are not fullscreen (you could see a space at th botom) even though full screen was already optimized or activated
also the new gestures only works on one ui and not on other launcher

gxfonts to install a font
but for the sony sketch font, you can google it
anyway i uploaded it here. extract this and use the ttf file on gxfonts
Thanks for that. appreciate it ?
I don't think it's meant to be though.
I've extracted your zip and upgraded gxfonts, rebooted my phone, but gxfonts refuses to build a custom font using the TTF file. Tapping the build button does nothing ?
mine is ok
can you try this? extract the ttf file
click Regular, and choose the extracted ttf file
bdw you too on android 10 right?
does your phone really goes full screen?
mine shows a bar at the bottom on every app
Hi, thanks for the assistance, though I've just managed to get it installed. It looks like the file name gx fonts was trying to save was too long, and didn't work until I shortened the name.
I'm not on 10 UI2 I'm still using 9 UI1, as I want to keep fullscreen in everything. If Samsung could sort that out I'd update. But I'm staying put at the mo.
hmmmm. so i seems im not the only one having this fullscreen issue then?
so you manage to install he font? nice

bdw I am no sure if this would help. I am on Android 10... and full screen working after factory reset
So you can turn on full screen and leave it on 24/7 without seeing the notification bar, nor the navigation keys at the bottom (using gestures of course). And the entire screen is used by the app you're using? No bars, spaces, blank areas?
I've heard different from other users, but it would be great if fullscreen immersive works like I have it now ?

Just received an update through OTA, haven't done the update yet, has anyone got this, Sony has forced people to do the update, as you can't hide it or disable it, it will just stay in the status bar and as notification.
I updated but have no idea what was delivered. Firmware version remained the same.

That would be the first time one is forced to update/upgrade. Usually you can select something like "Always", "Only when connected to WiFi" or "Never". Isn't that no more the case with the Xperia X series? Hope it is...
yeh, I found out you can prevent the upgrade, but you have to do it before a upgrade pops up in the upgrade section.

The bionz is too aggressive, too much noise on pictures.
Stamina mode is a joke compared to before. It just slows the phone down.
Battery life seems OK, and it charges fast if gone dry

hey karrouma,
Do you need to be rooted to use Flashtools?
I show that my phone is up-to-date, but I still have the Contacts app issue (I don't care anymore cuz I use Contacts + app, but still). I've been having an issue I hope is gone now where phone randomly restarts on its own. I cleared all the preferences (or cache?) at once and restarted. So far it's good (knock on wood), but I wonder if doing what you did would help? But if it requires root forget it. lol
Also, on your box, on the side.......... what country/language codes do you see? Mine said ZH, EN which I guess was China and English for US/UK (or maybe England?? lol). HK would be Hong Kong, so still China. TW would be Taiwan. I've been told the Taiwan int'l version doesn't have the Contacts app issue.
Please let me know.
No root , u canuse flashboot safely if u know how to install your phone driver
Tw phone the dual with 64gb
Nice phone and nice size in pocket

Ok. Wait it's called Flashboot or Flashtools??
Not sure. I've rooted and unlocked bootloaders before, but I don't know the exact procedure for what you're talking about. Are there instructions somewhere online? Where did you go to get the FTF file? Is THIS it?
Ok you got the Taiwanese version. Cool. Mine's Hong Kong. I don't think the TW version ever had the stock Contacts app issue though.
Yeah I LOVE my XP!!

Stamina mode has been ruined and instead of my regular 54hrs at 100% battery, I now get 27hrs with the. 238.
Battery to me is everything, thats why i was very happy with my Sony Xperia x performance.
But not anymore.
Also i just checked, my batt was at 70% i tried turning off stamina mode to see how much the change would be, ONE HOUR difference with stamina mode on!
ONE!
VERY ANNOYED!
---------- Post added at 10:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 PM ----------
Is there a way to revert to back my system update?
Also, I posted on sony forums about it.
Posted in software section, for some stupid reason it was moved to xperia x section as a reply to a topic about 8hr battery.
I clearly stated it was xperia x performance and the system update 35.0.a.1.238. Yet when I went to check it was gone and move.

"Regular 54 hrs"? The XP just came out a month ago. What do you mean regular?
I tried leaving SM on overnight last week for about 7 hours, and the battery STILL goes down, but only 4%. It's not like the SM on the Z3, which was better but also to me quite buggy. Without SM overnight my battery went down 7%. I only activate SM when I'm gonna be out for more than a few hours, or else it's not worth it.
Note: Make sure if you use the "Visual Voicemail" app that after enabling then disabling SM that you go back into the VV app and re-enable it. Or else calls that go to VM will only show up on Notification Pane (VV notif won't show up) and you'll have to re-enable it later anyways, so might as well just remember to do it after disabling SM. Other than that it works pretty well, just not AS great as on my old Z3. But at least it's not buggy, and by buggy I mean super annoying MMS and random battery drain issues. MMS messages wouldn't always come in and randomly the battery level would free fall, and I'd have to FACTORY RESET the phone to make it ok. I'm so glad Sony finally fixed it, just wish it didn't lose any battery power overnight. Oh well.
Omg was this not a simple process, finally running L29C636 on the mate 10, fully re branded, the China firmware wasn't bad but too much chinese
Managed to brick it in the process, FRP locked, Bootloader locked, after a long night crying in my sleep we finally manged to unbrick and do it properly, or I should say he did lol
All thanks go to FUNKYHUAWEI, jesus this ain't like it was on the Mate 9, that was s, so simple, FH is finding a way to simplify it but that might not happen, you really gotta know what you're doing here but with FH's help...he made it look easy, very happy now, I'll rebrand to C432 when thats available lol, I feel much better about doing it again

Sure.
Serious question. I understand many want to rebrand Chinese ROM to international L29 ROM. But why? My understanding is that you can change AL00 system language to English and you can install Google Play (and services). You can even uninstall all the Chinese bloatware apps via Huawei's Application Store manager app.
So what are the pros and cons? Surely there will be more updates too with the AL00 ROM considering Huawei is a Chinese manufacturer?
So why debrand? Why not just stick to AL00 and do all the above? What am I missing?

You will get Hiboard instead of Google's version of that board. Hivoice instead of Google Now. Since the yellow book is filled with Chinese contacts, the dial pad shows up predictive Chinese contacts from yellow book whenever you dial. The Music and Video app has Chinese online content. And maybe because of the new "AI" introduction you might face China based AI pop up tips. You can turn off the Hiboard, but you can't replace it with Google board in a way you get the same swipe left shortcut. You can't remove nor replace the Hivoice (swipe up shortcut). The Music and Video app you can only get around by hiding the app and using alternate app from playstore. The Chinese Yellow book problem in dial pad also could not be resolved, however not sure if its different on the Oreo + EMUI 8. Most bloatware can be deleted but a couple of them cannot be. So those who wish to use the Chinese rom be sure you can adapt to these. Also not sure if 3rd party NFC payment apps will work.
Up to now I have brought Huawei phones from China because Huawei releases these phones internationally a couple months later, it is priced cheaper and more faster rom updates. So i didn't take much issue to the problems stated above. But this time i might go for the local version of Huawei itself as the release date here is not far off and the price is as cheap as the official price in China (getting from re sellers in China would increase price by 100-200$) and if i get 4-6 rom updates a year (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/help/how-rom-update-year-t3696371) that should be more than enough for me.

That is more to do with changing the settings that makes selected apps to close when phone is in sleep and also maybe toggling notification permissions. Also there is toggle in wifi settings which turns off wifi when in sleep.

All the replys are quite accurate. From my experience with the Mate 9, another thing I noticed is that there are some features that work only if you know Chinese language. For example, you can set the phone to answer a call, hands free, by voice but you have to say "answer" in Chinese. I could never figure a way around that.

It's not about settings,the notifications bug in Chinese firmwares is true and you cannot do anything about it,you can check by yourself the mate 9 forum.i don't have the phone anymore but i remember correctly.

When you rebrand the phone you will get the ota specified for the region u rebranded to,so no worry about that.
Once rebranded the phone acts like a genuine phone from the region it's rebranded to. Ota updates work normally. You can use volte, WiFi calling and so on
According to O2 in the UK, Volte only works with phones with O2 firmware so it's no point rebranding specifically if you want Volte and you will use an O2 SIM card.
Hi, did you by any chance managed to achieved root as well ? Saw funkyhuawei post on reddit regarding rooting mate 10.
And root is indeed all i need on any android phone. Including this. LoL
Btw, unfortunately, there's no VoLTE option on 636. My carrier has VoLTE and worked out of the box with my s8 and pro7, but not this phone

I haven't used EMUI8.0 however for all previous versions, you cannot replace the Hiboard. You can only disable the Hiboard via home screen settings. I don't know if it can be done after rooting though.

OMG I actually remember I have 1 credit since I rebranded my P20 Pro from C33 to C432 so I can install it soooo lucky ?
BTW if I get stuck or anything like that... How can I rollback to EMUI 8 ? Pretty scared now :/ If someone could try to see if it's safe it would be cool ?

So there is many bugs, like some animation lags but it's not important at all, also some lags with the blur in the multitasking, but it's not important. EMUI 9 is really smooth, and I ran an Antutu benchmark, and it scored 125K, 15k more than EMUI 8 wich was at 110k. So yeah, really smooth.
It was quite a shock but about an hour after signing up for Pie beta I'm now getting it bundled with the November update. It's a 1782. 74 MB download. The way I actually got it was by uninstalling the Samsung+ app and reinstalling the latest version off Apkmirror. Once I did that the beta registration became available.
Do let us know what works and what doesn't

To get the Beta:
Uninstall Samsung +
Install Samsung + Beta from APK Mirror
Open, sign in, enroll
Go to settings & check for update.
The process was instant for me.
Everything works fine so far except Close All in Recents Tab. Loving the new Night Theme.

It hasn't been a full 24 hours yet so I can't tell. I know it isn't any worse, LOL. I've used my phone on and off since I took it off the charger 9 hours ago and it's telling me I have 11 h 35 m left.

The build I got is for my unlocked S9. I read on Samsung Support forums that Sprint & Verizon models that are carrier locked wouldn't receive the beta. Try to sign up & see what happens. Good luck, I know how it feels to want to get something for your phone & then to be told that you're out of luck.
Same here. On TMobile US. I just installed the Samsung+ app from the play store and registered for the beta. I did an update check about 15 mins later and there it was.
About 1875 meg download too.

Is it possible to get pie beta for exynos version
I would guess that the update will depend on where you live and your carrier. I'm sure they won't send it out to everyone so there is probably a limit for each country and carrier. Some may get it fast, some down the road, and some not at all.
I didn't download the Samsung+ beta app. I downloaded the standard Samsung+ app from Google play store and registered within that.
I've registered for betas with them before and not sure if that plays a part in it also. Maybe some some sort of pre-approval going on somewhere also.

I couldn't get the registration to show from the Play version and had to install the other one. Maybe does have something to do with your previous registrations.

Well i am talking about 100 to 1%
Nothing much...
Just use single sim
Clear off ram frequently
Use earphones for media coz speaker sucks alot of power
Optimize all apps under battry optimization
Turn of AI boost
Just make sure battery is not being used in other unwanted stuffs. And there you go.. you can easily get 7 to 8 hours straight atleast.

Use single sim only.. use a network that can provide 4 or 5 bar signal. Turn off AI BOOST.. optimize all battery settings. Turn of AI Charging.. instead of it use the time duration for which you actually sleep. Clear your ram through period. Instead of speaker use earphones. And make sure to cut off every irrelivent power supply. And there you go.. you can drag atleast 7 to 8 hours on normal usage. From 100 to 1.

Download and Change theme from factory app.
You will have to customize app icons and wallpaper. Coz i am sure you wont gona like it anyway.
I can suggest you my personal fav. "Our own darkness". Its a black theme with yellow and orrange highlight.

Some bugs in PIE
I have noticed some bugs! Lockdown is not available even after turning it on, and the power button menu still looks the same! It looks so old and pathetic. Also no sliding gesture available in multitasking pil. Quick icons and setting icons are still same (which is still okay but anyway the update is here) ,and anyone got any pixel like theme? which will change the notification panel quick icons and all?
Asus site says WW update, but TW SKU only?
Which one is it really? Using WW 8.0 atm, thinking about updating, should I wait for next one this month?

As far as I can tell there's no settings on these phones to change the notification panel. The only way is using the built in Themes app for ZenUI. That's how I got dark theme for it and the Asus apps.

Better you wait. I have updated to Pie and didn't realize that it is TW version. I have an Indian 5Z. Now I am wondering what if I found some strange bug and have to go back to Indian release and if it'll be possible. Asus haven't helped at all and if I can't update to the Indian version my only option is to downgrade and then update again. Plus, this TW build has some bugs. So better wait for official version of your respective country.
