hey there ive got this VERY weired problem that happened to my brothers phone since the update to marshmallow and its driving him crazy therefor he is getting really annoying about it cause he asks ME to fix it
the problem: just imagine you're surfing with mobile data and it works just damn well BUT suddenly the 4g indicator (sometimes H+) just freezes on up side and NO internet till i {reboot OR toggle airplane mode OR switch network type}
so ive tried every manual non-root thingy (factory reset-re-flashing rom thru odin-wiped data from recovery-swapping sim to see if the sim is faulty[it works on my s7 edge]-enabling data roam and etc.) but none of them works and i was really shocked that the complete reflash of rom thru odin didn't work either (it was the same rom that he got thru OTA [G920FXXS4DPG3])
so what are my options here ? i really dont wanna flash a custom rom on it cause its not mine BUT if there is a top rom that got the special workarounds for the mobile data IM IN. OR a odin modem file that just would make it work ... OR JUST ANYTHING ELSE that would just make it stop!!!
a little bit OT but what are the root options in s6 ? is there a KNOX-free root ? or a system-less root ? and will it break fingerprint feature ?
thanks in advance for you time !
Having same problem. Tried same methods.
Concidering going back to 5.x - anyone know if this will fix issue?

Hi guys,
I need help. Once I encrypted my phone. Location service/GPS is not working on my phone.
Before encryption. There is the location icon always comes up when I access something like Google Maps. even tried installing GPS toolbox. Able to see the satellites and all.
But after encryption, the location icon does not come up. But somehow in High Accuracy mode, it does get somewhere of an approximation of my location.(from network and Wifi).(This does not go well when you are navigating around)
Have you guys encountered this. I have even tried flashing the new L09 Rom and it is still the same.
Also searched around the forums (Looks like the old Samsung phones had this issue where after encryption the GPS would not work). But the post is way back in 2011. And they din follow up on the posts on how it was fixed.
I have factory reset my phone a number of times, flash new rom(the one shared on this forum)
Also played with the settings nothing happens. I still cannot get GPS to work after encryption.
Also another thing I notice is that during the encryption a strange error came up and say that Settings have stopped working. I do not know whether there is a coincidence or not and whether it has anything to do with this GPS problems..
Any help is welcomed. as having a phone with no GPS is really driving me up the wall.

Really sorry for late response - but you can fix this problem using attached file - this is apk from China version of Mate7 make you be able to give (or revoke) access to system data storages (including GPS) to applications.
I had the same problem as you - and using this apk i've fixed it successfully.
it doesn't work for me - can anybody sent printsceen of settings of this app?
Thanks
@nchee + @mireczeque
Have you BOTH re-flashed the stock rom by using the official HUAWEI procedure (i.e. three buttons pressed togheter and ROM saved on DLOAD folder)? If so, do you have ALSO applied a WIPE DATA FACTORY RESET plus a WIPE CACHE PARTITION?
I had some problems with APPS crashing when I tried restoring my HAM with B130. I WIPED everithing and THEN re-flashed fresh B130 from DLOAD sdcard procedure, and everithing worked perfectly. I hope this help.

restore phone
Hello everyone,
This is my first post o be gentle
I've installed a few weeks ago this ROM, i saw some threads before choose this one and im quite happy with it, i want to wait for a few more months before go for the newer v12.
Im having an isse that bothers me every now and then since ive installed this ROM. The network from nowhere simply goes out, the networks symbol remains there at the minimum level (just one small bar) but what's really happening is that there is no network at all, SMS, phone calls etc doesnt work. As soon as i notice that i have to restart the phone or enable and then disable "Airplane mode" and that's it , network is up again.
Is there any chance to solve this without installing the newer v12 that maybe, just maybe, have this problem solved?
I've downloaded this version:
Imperium_LL_Rom_OJ2_v11.0
My phone is an international GT-I9505, coming from CM11.2. I've installed everything from scratch so i believe nothing was left behind.
Thanks everyone!
Cheers
Hey everyone !
Like it says in the title , my mobile data is not working. As I open the drop down menu and tap the mobile data icon ,it lights up as though it is on but there is no connection sign in the top right corner , no 4G no nothing. I have been googling around quite a bit an I saw people with the same issue but as far as I know it was not resolved.
A little backstory : I updated to marshmallow 6.0.1 with no issues and after a week or so decided to root. ( my first time ) All went ok and I had root access , downloaded a few apps USING MOBILE DATA and then entered TWRP recovery and it got stuck in a bootloop, wouldn't leave TWRP. ( I assume that's when I should of installed a custom ROM.. ? )
Anyway I got anxious and thought I am better off going stock because apparently I have no idea what I'm doing .
Downloaded the stock firmware for my model and flashed it and voilah it works.
I was relieved. But then I noticed that my mobile data is not working. I can make calls and send messages and Wi-FI works perfect : but not mobile data.
( Don't know if this is relevant at all but similar thing happened with the power saving mode , I tapped the icon and it should have been "on" but it wasn't which is weird. By the way yesterday it started working normal again , better call scooby and the gang to solve that mystery eh ? )
So this is what I tried to fix the problem : - Rebooted. - Rebooted in safe mode. - Resetting APN. - Wiping cache. - Factory reset.
The issue still persisted. I even went to the network provider and they told me that everything should be "ok" as I suspected.
Now I am no expert but the only logical explanation would be a hardware issue... ? The tinfoil hat wearer in me is whispering that when you tripped your knox it took out something else with it though that wouldn't explain why it worked after rooting but not after flashing back to stock.
What is the point in having a smartphone if I can not access the internet on the go ? It sucks because I am just about to start studying so I will not be able to afford a new phone for quite a while...
So what are your thoughts guys ? I still have hope that there is someone out there who can help me and many others who have encountered this issue
Here are some screenshots

Homtom HT10
a new official firmware has been released:
HOMTOM-HT10-Android6.0-V01-20170226.zip
http://www.homtom.cc/
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0By2t6rTTiNQNcEJ1QkpKQnhzck0/view?usp=sharing
no change log unfortunately
could you please report if those major bugs listed bellow are finally fixed?
is it rootable? if yes, how?
- no OTA update
- losing user language preference (simcard default language is used instead)
- losing connectivity (cannot make/receive calls)
- iris / pattern unlock crash/reboot
- random reboot
- screen calibration issue (not responding sometimes and it cannot be fixed with calibration apps from Google store)
- blurry pictures (slow focus and shutter speed)
- bad audio quality (over saturated)
- clean of malwares and chinese apps
Hardware features that were announced but never won't be available (fake advertising / SCAM):
- 5Ghz Wi-Fi compatibily
- NFC
- OTG
*** UPDATE ***
Ok folks... I removed the simcard and also the battery few seconds and flashed latest firmware with sp_flash_tool (firmware mode not download mode) and lost everything (all apps / data) but there is a good news... smartphone doesn't lose language preference anymore!
unfortunately smartphone is still losing connectivity and network (cannot make/receive calls even if there is network signal !)
(I thought it was solved too because it has worked almost half a day but actually i've still got this issue!)
so HomTom HT10 is still a useless 'smart' brick...
And HomTom is doing the same than UMI: banning from their Facebook page users reporting bugs or false avertising (OTG/NFC/Wi-Fi 5Ghz/full bands support/...).
Got mine 2 weeks ago and have not experinced any of the problem above. I think you have got a bad phone only(fake copy?).
I had a update as soon as I started the phone and it is now HOMTOM-HT10-Android6.0-V01-20170225, hmm yours is 0226.
I am no super user of phones but this one is working very good only the sound when doing the iris thing is annoying.

Mine is the same it's just their typo error. When extracted it's 20170225
Anyway there is a new official firmware... Anyone tried it already?
@ homtom.cc
HOMTOM-HT10-Android6.0-V01-20170510.zip
I'm looking for an English (or global) custom ROM for this device running Android 6.x or 7.x
MoKee, GizROM, LineageOS 13/14/15. Any ROM 100% working.
I bought one of these a while back and using it on the T-Mobile network for over 8 months. I also have not had any trouble that you stated above such as loosing connectivity or the iris scan crashing. I do agree that it would be nice if you could turn off the iris scan noise though. Love this phone and glad I took a chance when ordering it.
I may have found this thread a little late, but here I am. I have the Homtom HT10 running the firmware Android-6.0-V01-20161202 and I was able to root the device using Kingo Root. It's been a while, but I think there were some additional steps to go through before this root worked. My question is if anyone here has had success in rooting one of the newer firmwares, since I'm not sure if this root would survive the firmware update and I wouldn't want to lose root access.
Also, does anyone know how to replace the Kingo Superuser app with Chainfire's version?
mine was working good, i rooted , and install magisk and after a while i loose connectivity when make calls..i flash full firmware..format and all the stuff and still cannot make callss

I've flashed HOMTOM-HT10-Android6.0-V01-20170622 and so far all works pretty good (it keeps the language)...
Only audio EQ quality is poor (distorsion) and volume / quality issue in phone calls.
Not sure yet if OS is able to switch properly from a deficient 4G network to 3G/2G (because i'm currently using forced 3G mode in settings) but it seems to work better than previously.
flashing the Rom
Hi guys. I'm having trouble loading the latest firmware thru sp flash tool.
I'm running Windows 10 and I've installed the extra drivers.
Would love some help.
Thanks
Did you have to push any button combinations to get SPflashtool to start?

I used a different version of flash tool and it started when I put the battery in. There's so many versions of flash tool I guess. But I got it working.
Thanks for the response!

My HT10 (got it a month ago) GPS not working
Hi guys
My HT10 GPS in to working. The phone is new, I just got it, and it literally only has viber and Here maps on.
The GPS tested today, not working.
Under a sky with no clouds in the middle of a field with no obstructing buildings and no signal whatsoever.
custom build version: alps-mp-m0.mp9-v1.33_aeon6797.6c.m_p11
Hello
I am french and I live in Ireland.
I have same problem with my Homtom HT10. My smartphone is still losing connectivity and network (cannot make/receive calls even if there is network signal !). I indicated the problem to Homtom who asked me to update Firmware but it did not improve the problem. Homtom suggests me sending back the smartphone for repair but postal charges are very expensive for China.
No solution... I have to restart my Homtom all days if I want to send a SMS or make a phone call.
Perhaps a problem with the SIM Card ?
I got mine since 4 months ago.
Probably the worst android I ever got.
It is fast ok and charge is really quick but its always losing connection. Its more like a photo camera and mp3 than phone.
The other stupid thing is that can connect Wifi 5Ghz and the 2.4 is really slow.
I have already stock firmarware 20170622
Serious Homtom ??
Hi
My question to Homtom :
When Androïd 7.0 Nougat is going to arrive for my Homtom HT10 ?
Homtom's answer :
Dear customer,
Hello.
Unfortunately, we don't have any available news about update to Android 7.0 on HT10 at present. Please note that the original Android platform could not be upgraded in normal situation.
Best regards!

It's not a joke... An incompetent technical department
Hi guys, i have really annoying internet problems. For some reason a week ago my wi fi connection got very bad, and its just on my phone. On other devices in house wifi is fine, but in my case there`s a problem. Maybe problem is new update for nougat, i dont know, maybe something else. At first i tried with deleting cache memory and deleting some apps, but that didnt work. Then i checked other devices in my house and they arent lagging.
I hope u will help me, because i bought this phone a month ago and im losing my faith in him.
Problably a simple software issue, like a wrong dns, delete(forget) the wifi from your phone and reconect to it without any manual settings.

I had slow WiFi too, in my case somehow it's caused by the Bluetooth. Whenever it's on, my WiFi slows down from 30 mbps to 1
Have encountered the same problem and only thing I tested, is disabling the Bluetooth or going to Direct Wifi changing the Name and trying a Speedtest then .. All is OK But if you enable/disable Bluetooth again it stops working correctly.
It doesn't work anymore since B402.. And no solving solution found in this last update from Huawei.
Same problem here! since B402 update my wifi gets stuck at 0.5 Mbps if i have bluetooth turned ON. As soon as i turn bluetooth OFF my wifi works great!
Just updated manually with formware finder to version C432B404 and problem fixed!! Attention, it will update 2 version of the firmware: first a B404 normal, and then i get a new B404 (programmer) . Just updated both ad now everything works fine regarding internet speed with bluetooth on.
Had the same problem and it was the google home app for me. Uninstalled it and problem went away. Hope this helps for someone.
