Before I root... - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I love the stock experience and am unrooted and pure. I want to root purely to flash Dolby Atmos zip. However I heard rooting phones don't play well with Android Pay or some banking apps. Is this true? Am in the UK.
Finally, if I decide to unroot, is this possible so I can go back to the state of pure unmodified stock rom?
Thank you!

Banking Apps work with Rooting Phones,Android Pay,i dont know.
Yes you can back to unrooted Stockrom with the UPDATE.APP or
make a Twrp Backup before root the Phone,its a easy way to go back to Stockrom,you can restore the Backup und flash Stock Recovery,you are back on Stock

Forget about Barclays app, won't work after root......... The only reason I don't want to root

This is indeed the registration for eligibility in testing the Marshmallow ROM.
You need to register on the hwbeta site:
https://club.huawei.com/plugin.php?id=hwbeta & afterwards sign the beta agreement (be sure to have enough credits):
https://club.huawei.com/plugin.php?id=hwbeta&action=agreement
a fair warning to those who intend to join the beta program, once u have updated ur phone to the beta 6.0, you cant flash back to B028.... there are many threads on the official Huawei forum on how users have flashed a leaked beta super buggy 6.0 firmware and not able to revert back to B028 and are in a tight fix...
That's for 703 , mine is 701 model ?
Sent from my HUAWEI P8max using Tapatalk
just hold on and wait ... no need to put your phone on the shelf for few months, when we are super close to the real thing
You can simply flash B028 on your phone if the Beta sucks!

The beta firmware is locked to the imei number so you can't just flash over with stock rom. They have however release a special rollback firmware for that purpose. Let me know if anyone needs it.

Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-AL10 using XDA-Developers mobile app
u can only fully remove the chinese stuff by unlocking bootloader and rooting ur phone. then u can delete all that stuff by using titanium backup, for example, or by manually deleting the stuff via a root explorer.
aside from that, some L29 roms actually work in terms of notifications but yeah if u wanna stick to AL10 firmwares, im guessing thats a good point @notifications. thats actually the main reason i switched to crossflashing L29 firmwares...

The update fixes a problem with the network connection.
[Optimizations]
Some feature descriptions are optimized for Swedish as system languages.
[Correction]
One problem with some users could not access the internet for some operator networks in Montenegro.
If anyone gets an update notification then please snatch the hicare download link. Thanks.

That's weird. I do see that that @chudy_85 does not have a B571 for TL10 listed on his thread, however if there is TWRP backup available then someone did have the firmware.
@mshirq,
If you have got to B560 you probably know how to get back to B522. You might get a OTA for B571 once you are on B522, if your phone is from Europe. I have a L09 and I got an OTA update for B571, after I changed my region to eu and installed B522, I cant bet on the same for TL10 though.
To find your region, go to project menu and check the vendor and country information under network info. Let me know what you see there.
I managed to get my TL10 B560 updated to B571 via Ota upgrade. I unrooted it, changed the region to EU, and after a day or so of checking the Updater in Settings, I got the 300mb update. So it is possible.

No ota update to mm only when you be beta testers they give ota update. Now you must flash manual mm for your region. For Europe it's b522 but this firmware do it wipe your data

Moto Mod's work
All of Moto's goodies are working
Deodexed now
The only add-on is Arise & Dolby Atmos sound that fixes the no notification bug, you'll find the link below the rom download​
ONLY USE @@alberto97s TWRP FOUND HERE:TWRP

NEW UPDATE:March /20/ 17
DOWNLOADDEODEXED VERSION 1
1 ROM FOR BOTH SINGLE & DUAL SIM & ANY MOTO Z PLAY THAT HAS TWRP AS YOUR RECOVERY

I will not answer any questions about Magisk, you want it, then it's up to you to figure how to install it.
I original made this rom for my personel use and decided I would share it with you.
I have no need for magisk as any root method is my priority, for my needs supersu is more than adequate.
There's a good search tool on XDA as well as "Google is your friend"
WE MUST GIVE A BIG SHOUT OUT TO @tomparr FOR HIS F2FS FIX

Based on the baseband ending in -47 (as opposed to -57 as I've heard reported as the nougat ota baseband) I assume this does not touch baseband/modems at all?

This is smooth as silk. Now just need root to be complete. Thanks again man!

Couple things. Factory sounds don't seem to work in Gmail. and that notification "bug" exists In this build of nougat.
So, first I need to open bootloader, flash TWRP and then flash the update, am I right??
Just to be sure
