Why there is so little development? - Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I saw several reviews from Mate 7 and I loved it, It´s an incredible phone, but some important aspect for me is the community development. I like to get root, flash Roms and get updates to be in the last version
But I found that this forum has very little development
Is it because Huawei launches few updates?
Do you think it will be the same with future Huawei phones like Honor 7, ascend S....

Its mainly because its not a mainstream device which is sold far less then fi Samsung, LG, HTC etc. and scource codes are only public in a limited form afaik. Most development is done for Qualcomm CPU based devices.

They ar no interested in Huawei phones so much ... they need to be popular to get devs. think oh yeah it is worth now..

If it could be possible at least decompile apks from stock rom maybe there would be more development
But for sure the different soc and the fact that it's not so supported by updates are relevant aspects in this kind of issues

Understand.. It's a pity, because that might be the reason why I won't buy phones like ascend mate 7 or honor 7. If we pay these high prices we deserve the phone to be updated, I think

Actually you are right, it's really cheap compared to LG, Samsung etc.. But I was comparing to other brands like Xiaomi, Umi, Elephone or Ulefone, which is what I'm gonna buy next, that's why I called the others from Huawei or Honor 'high price'

[Q] Wait for a US-compatible Ascend Mate 7 or buy the Chinese version and hope?

I'm curious how many folks out there are going to wait to see when/if and then buy the US-compatible version of the Ascend Mate 7 or are going to buy the version that's out now?
Wait .....

I think u should wait a bit because I m a Pakistani and on HuaweiPakistan fb page they are indicating that mate7 is gonna available very shortly. In Pakistan we get international version always not Chinese ones. So i hope it would support all bands of LTE being used in USA.

As a seller, can we participate in this thread?:laugh:
Our opinions for USA consumers would be, to wait for the USA version.
For EU consumers, our opinion is that the current Chinese premium MT7-TL10 shall work flawlessly in many EU countries and it offers more advantages that it carries the most complete TDD bands in the entire market.
If you are not mainly based in NA and are a frequent traveler, we highly recommend the current Chinese premium MT7-TL10.
And one more advice if we could offer: get the 3 GB RAM version for this high-end phone. It worth the bucks you are to pay.

I can't walk around with a gold phone. I just can't. What was Huawei thinking only releasing the higher-end version in gold?

HUAWEI believes it is a premium phone only for VIP man/woman.
Seriously, the MATE is targeting at high-end market. The gold color looks better in hands though. And it can be covered with the leather case.
Gold is kind of cool

For me, the gold color was kind of appealing. It stands out where all the other devices seem to do wood (at the most extreme, to me, which is not extreme) to just plain black. If I get one more "black" device, I'll lose it. You'd think manufacturers would get that we want color in our devices. Not just the same old drab non-colors.
I wouldn't mind different colors, but I think that gold is quite possibly the ugliest color you could put on a device. I'd be more likely to buy literally any other color of device than gold. I spent 2-4 minutes trying to think of another color that came close to as bad as gold but I can't think of one. I prefer not to have a case on my phone, and even with a case you'd still be able to see little slivers of color on it.
So, I went to the Huawei Mobile Phone store site and posed the following question:
You're updating your answers that this will be released in a US-compatible version, WHEN will it be released in a US-compatible version? Please update as you say to buy it from the US Huawei shop but it's not even listed there, only the Ascend Mate 2 is listed. WHEN is this going to be available in the US and is it going to be compatible with T-Mobile?

This was their response:
Huawei Mobile
Thank you for your mail.
If Huawei Ascend Mate7 released in the United States, it will be compatible with T-Mobile's.

I think they mean "when" not "if" (not at all sure their English is very good).
Of course, all of this is without a date of when it will be released, but there you go. There's a few other countries that have asked about this and they seem to just be really slow at rolling out stock.
I think I understand why Huawei isn't so well known in the US, they seem unable to get stock, make the devices, whatever voodoo they have to do to fulfill a demand for a device they created.
I am not going to buy the Chinese model in lieu of waiting for the US compatible M7, but I'm inching closer to buying a competing product like the Note 4 or Nexus 6. It's been a month and a half since the Mate7 was announced, and I still couldn't tell you when it will be made widely available. The M7 is my preferred phone because of battery life, but I'm not going to wait much longer, when there are quality competitors becoming available in this space, to be honest.

I wrote this exact thing on their website. Their response, "Mate is low in stock right now.. "
I think I know now why they're considered #3 in worldwide sales and nor even considered by US carriers. They seem very lackadaisical about the urgency of coming to market with an announced product.
Sad really.
I have the premium gold chinese variant, and though I can't speak for US, it works fine in EU.
And the gold colour looks nice - I wouldn't really call it proper gold. anyway - it looks different to other flat black slabs that everyone else is carrying

any good 6"+ phones

so it seems that i have just about had it with my mate 7. if someone would have told me of the lack of custom roms i would not have bought it. having said that, its a new year with new phones rocking snapdragon 820!!! YAY!!! so, anyone know of any good 6 inch phones coming out soon? im currently looking at the Oppo R7 Plus and the ZTE Axon Max but like i said, im hoping for a phone with an SD820. anyway, any and all suggestions are welcome. thanks!
Just look at the news section of the XDA site. They're at MWC 2016 right now, looking at the new releases.
I have been looking at MVC I think this year was a huge disappointment. Vivo Xplay 5 was biggest surprise.
LG G5 was a nice concept..it is just that the LG lack totally any sense of elegant design.. it looks not good on the back..
camera and performance is probably good, but the battery performance is probably not good (and no I will not carry a extra battery in my pocket)
S7 I think they will suceed with most things, good battery life, best display..
Why I will not buy S7 is the price.. and Samsung software..I can't stand it..
I am not a huge fan of samsung design and form factor..
I regret I did not buy the Mate 8 in november now..I will now buy the Mate 8, the mocha brown version. I was so sure I would buy the gold version but..after much thinking..I will go with the mocha brown.
What's wrong with your M7?
I'd like a Mate 8 myself, it's a beast!
But I don't need one.
The Mate 7 does what I need. It's a nice phone.
If you want to update but your M7 is running ok, I'd wait a month or two and see what new models are released.
Well if official marshmallow had been released by now I might have kept the mate 7 for a while

I use Smart Launcher Pro. It's the only launcher I have found that properly supports full rotation and re-organisation of lockscreen and homescreen. I use it in landscape in the car and that one feature is a must have.
I removed the Huawei launcher. Just garbage without the app drawer. Why cripple the device so iSheep can use it?

and this is why i will never buy another huawei phone...... at least not one that doesn't have a snapdragon soc. if only huawei released their phones with snapdragon soc's for north america.
Hey, give Huawei a chance. The hardware rocks, but the software lacks polish. Wait for a few more releases and I'm sure Huawei will release a phone with a software that's par with other brands.

I'm like you. I want a 6" display. And i'm bored by huawei roms. I want a snapdragon with custom's rom.
But with 6" display... Vivo was exciting, but just 5,5 finally.
Samsung A9 and A9 pro were great but not released in EU...
I'm really waiting for Oppo R9. Seems to have a 6" display like Oppo r7 plus but with s820...
At 9-th Mart will be present Huawei P9 Max - rumored 6.3" display.

this was my hope as well but it seems that the R9 wont have an SD820. from recent pictures it also looks like it will have a front facing fingerprint scanner which is a major turn off for me. it looks like ill have to wait to see what ZTE does.

I hesitated for a long time between the M7 and the R7 Plus , ended up with the R7 Plus and so far i'm very impressed , the official CM12.1/CM13 support is very nice , it has a Snapdragon 615 which is of course less powerful than the 820 but it results in an astounding battery life , lasting a full day and well into the second day. Good luck with whatever choice you make. :silly:

thanks for the advice. at the moment it seems like the R7+ might be my next phone. im still going to wait to see what zte has to offer before i buy anything. tbh, i dont mind the processor size as long as its a snapdragon and has at least 3GB of ram with expandable storage ill be fine.

is it worth the price??

i dint know if anyone of you are holding a honor 6x now,
all i want to ask is , is it worth the price? with a kirin inside??

After seeing the initial dev scene over here for 6X. Yes, it can be worth. I don't hold any 6X now.

It doesn't happen like Honor 5X.
For Honor 4X, we got 2 incremental updates Kitkat -> Lollipop -> MM
So we can expect the same for Honor 6X too.
And with our Lineage Devs over here, we can expect further more updates.

Yeah! Considering the specs of the hardware used in the Honor 6X for the price. You get less from other brands like Samsung, HTC or Sony for the same price.

Nexus 6p may be a good recommendation but its usually still double the price of a Honor 6x. At least here.
I am currently holding back on making a 6x purchase as I rather a 64gb black front model which are not yet available here. But it seems there has been some progress with LineageOS. Fingers crossed!

Understand, an used 6P is about same price as a new 6X here in China.
If you are not hurry, maybe just wait for LineageOS to be mature. Otherwise, Honor 5X is another good option.

Going to upgrade; Need some advice

The OPO is getting old now, I've had my 3years worth and loved it despite the issues I've faced!
However it's time to upgrade (new job, more money )
I'm in the mix between ;
Pixel 1 XL - £400 (Really like this phone, although the age is putting me off SLIGHTLY due to not going to get many official updates)
Pixel 2 - £630 (Quite a bit expensive, will leave me quite skint but possibly worth it; I want this device the most)
LG G6 - £400ish? £500 with a floating LG speaker (I REALLY like this device, especially for the money but the skin and delay in updates will probably make me ill lol)
Oneplus 5 8GB ram - £450 (student discount) (obviously this looks like the no brainer but i KNOW the jelly effect will really get to me, in nearly every review of it on youtube i notice it when they scroll; no one can change my mind about this but I've added it to see if theres yet a fix for it? or is there going to be one? I havent seen anything about it?)
;
And these are the phones, can anybody steer me into the right way? I honestly cannot decide, and my mind hasnt been made so I'm not biased against any however I'm least keen about the OP5.

I wouldn't choose them sort of phones anyway mate due to the inconvenience such as; they'd be imported, wouldnt have good support if anything was to happen and the sites selling the xiaomis at least havent had the best reviews.
The phones i suggested i can buy in town without hesitation, even the Oneplus 5 due to being in the UK and o2 selling oneplus products
I just want something that works, is great all round and smooth. (and something i'm able to flaunt to ALL of my iPhone friends that claim Android is for 'tramps and emo geeks' hahah )

Well I was going to get the honor when it was just out as my dad asked if i wanted to get it off him and swap him for my opo with some money on top but the software is a big killer, possibly THEA worst android skin on a mainstream phone. The look, the feel and everything is clunky and pretty fairly disgusting.
I dont think theres any other phone on the market I'd have other than i've stated, I really like the Moto Z but I can't find it for sale in the UK (reasonably priced anyway), Also like Sony xperia phones but again, they're too expensive for what they are. The new HTC u11 is £600 so again, too expensive all considering.

Goodbye Huawei? What is your next phone?

I hope people respond to this and I hope it sends a message.
Firstly, I have simply loved so much about this phone. Camera, battery, screen etc! However, most importantly, the Huawei sanctions and walled garden that I, and others, have truly hated means that I will likely never recommend or use another Huawei after this ...
UNLESS THERE IS A CHANGE!
Please help send a message and reply to this message. Especially to my AL00 CN version brethren and sisters, but also the Western version users.
At any rate, my hope is that you can help and, together, we can make a statement... and that someone from Huawei reads this and S-T-O-P-S the bull****.
Of course, I could be a massive minority (would not surprise me). But I simply just wish for this company to allow users like myself the freedom to use their devices as we want.
Having said that, though, there will likely be other options on the horizon soon that spark our interest ----- and maybe that might just be the fun of it all.
Is it goodbye, Huawei? Please help Huawei listen and keep this thread going.
Sorry, dont have the needs for rooting at all.
I like the phone as it is, but its stuoid for those people who have the needs to root the phone and then they not allowed... Stupid.

I'm currently sniffing round the Note 10/10+, I've had a good 10/11 months with this phone but will be looking for something new in the next few days

The note 10+ is a a bit close to the price i'm selling my mate 20X, if i sell in this month, i'll maybe.. just maybe, buy Note 10+ or i'll wait for the Mi fold *this smart will be so ****ing beatifull*
I've just bought the note, picking up from local store shortly.
I'm going to put my 20X on ebay and see how it does
What effect does the walled garden have ? I've just ordered the CN version!

Never again. No more Huawei for me. I also got AL00 CN version. Love and hate this thing at the same time. Managed to root it before they stopped that, but when I pay so much for a phone I want to be able to do what I want with it. I have RR on mine. Honestly, never again.
I just sold mine, i'm buying oneplus 7 pro, or i'll wait for the 7T pro, i don't know what to buy it. I know that oneplus 7T will be lauching in 16 days i guess. But i don't have that time to buy it at china. Better buy for now the 7 Pro
I returned my note 10 plus and picked up this phone. I love it.
The Mate 20 series is quite capable but the fact you can't use a different launcher (on Chinese version which I own) among other things has me looking elsewhere. Interested in Samsung's folding phone. It apparently has been released in Korea and will soon be released in US...
i hace AL00 and I hope to find a phone with a 7-inch screen is the only thing I will miss my 20x mate. But I will never use Huawei again because I can't customize many things from the launcher and besides I need the code to do the unlock bootloader. I left the iPhone because it was very limited and Huawei is the Apple of Android. I guess I will buy a Xiaomi or maybe an Asplus or Nokia oneplus those are my options Samsung seems very expensive to me every time and I don't see much innovation.
I wish I could appeal to Huawei directly.
All we can do is hope that stuff like this, opens the companies eyes:

But I guess non-chinese are a significantly smaller market to huawei at the moment?
my next phone will be Surface Duo... for sure!

Interests me too.
But it is a long way away.

I really wish Huawei would listen to this message.
My guess is that once they open their boot loader, it becomes obvious that they have some intellectual property issues .
Good for the consumer in the long run.
Knock knock, Huawei.
Who's there?
Huawei!
Huawei who?

C'mon... I also am sticking with it for now... but the oneplus is screaming out louder and louder for those like me who don't want to be hemmed into EMUI world
To be honest, I really don't understand so many critize EMUI, for me it's not bad at all.
