Am I the only one frustrated ?
I really want and need the performance boost of 6.0 to enjoy fast app lauch and app switching faster browsing etc..
There is a lot of bull **** talk about this beta, let be clear I want no beta cause it is a pain in the ass
to reinstall your phone too many times, and going from beta to official version might is hard too.
From what I have seen in youtube videos Marshmallow seem to work good ?
so why the hell let us wait more ? why endure this pain and suffering more then they need.
There is people who suffer everyday daily for frustrating performance problems of Mate 7.
Huawei released the Beta to public on purpose cause they want to use us all as lab rats.
Push out the official version now, I will not install any beta software.
This is is important cause if Marshmallow get an satisfying performance increase, then
I might skip to buy Mate 8.
Mate 8 was nice but it has some flaws... The black borders around the screen..bugs me a lot..
for instance..much different to the press renders where the screen did go from edge to edge.
what version of lollipop are you on?

I've emailed Huawei about this, seeing as the 'official' versions has been released in Egypt and other parts of Africa.
Long story short, they only said that they are still in the testing phase and cannot give any form of feedback as of this moment.
Cool that they replied and said they are at least testing.
My question in my first post remains. Reading all he'll and problems people seem to have with the installation of marshmallow I am happy I did resist the temptation to install the marshmallow beta.
However it seem the official must be near?
My wisdom is to those who are in the beta program . Does huawei respond to any feedback of bugs or at all or is it a dead projekt? Seem meaningless to have a beta program if they are not working om it..
The beta has dragged out on time a lot and I honestly doubt they will improve much more then the beta.

Huawei is notorious for severely delaying updates, sadly. I wouldn't be surprised if we only see the update in the second half of this year.
To be honest I'm considering getting rid of my Huawei and picking up the Nexus 6P. The only reason I bought the Mate 7 in the first place was because of the fingerprint scanner, and the 6P has it whilst also being pure Android, which is neat. Not knowing that custom ROMs are virtually impossible with this phone has given me severe buyer's remorse.
it is now march where the hell is our marshmallow ? common Huawei..you really dig your reputation grave deeper and deeper
You have already done 95% of the work why not finish the last 5% this is frustrating!!!
I feel that the project is dead... I hope to be wrong

I think the team responsible have their hands full with some higher priority device so they left this 95% beta unfinished, this update is big and it is said to give the same performance boost as the lollipop did.
Millions people are affected.. I am not sure they realize that. And they are too much of ***** to release their update on Ota since they do not want to be responsible
I have an American Tmobile S7 and I just got the Nougat update the other day. There's no bugs or issues, I'm just not loving Nougat. The Marshmallow was a better user experience for me and I also liked the material design look better.
How could I revert back to Marshmallow? I read where I could use use a rom but then I would have to have my phone rooted and that is not possible, correct?
I thought about factory reseting my phone, but then I would constantly have that naggy T mobile upgrade notification in my drop down bar, right?
i love Nougat updated on mind i have not had not one issue with my Nougat updated i did a full wip after the updated too get ride of any bugs the Nougat updated has been grate for me
Factory resetting won't work. You will still be on Nougat.
Motorola has finally started the Nougat soak test in Brazil. Let's hope it won't take too long for them to release the final version. However, the screenshots say it's Android 7.0 and not 7.1. Also, to make us believe it's really happening, we can have a look at the comments posted below the post. Few comments say they have received it and it's working smooth as of now.

Update 1: Motorola send out soak test invitations to US users
Update 2: Android Headlines reports Moto X Style Is Receiving Android 7.0 Nougat In India
Update 3: Moto X Style and X Pure Nougat update spotted on GFXBench (Yes, again. The last time it was spotted on 7.1 was in last week of December.)
Update 4: A user on reddit who is located near Chicago states he received the Nougat update.
Soak test is going on in India also.
This is a good news !!!!!!
soak test is only available for limited users and if anyone who will break their rules will be out of the soak test permanently so don't expect that someone might just end up sharing the files !! all we need to do is just wait for that moment when it gets as stable as a daily driver and we all are good to go
its most likely 7.0 but i hope we get a 7.1.1 or 7.1.2
Why not get it now?
Google "AICP clark"
I've been running it since Dec 2015 on Republic Wireless with no problems.
I got bored waiting for official nougat and went to AICP 7.1
It's pretty good, can't see myself going back to stock tbh
Put me down for Dirty Unicorns. Last things for me were camera functioning well (which it seems to be if using OpenCamera) and torch working well (which it seems to be improved).

Doesn't matter so much. We're interested in the N blobs, i think they are the same between 7.0 and 7.1. this will at least mean better custom ROMS

Even on this forum not everyone is interested with custom roms. I used to mod my phones a lot but thoose were crapy low end devices and custom roms were really adding some performance but with this phone I don't see a reason to install custom rom. Even on my old moto e I went back to stock after trying few roms, moto software is really well made imo, so it's sad that their updates are way slower than they used to be and that they relase already obsolete software ;\.
btw from my expierience there is always something broken in custom roms, and if it's not broken now it will be in next relase xd

I'm with you here. I have no desire leave the stock ROM for any reason other than updates. It's been bug-free and smooth sailing for me with Motorola's software ever since 2015, no doubt because they stick to AOSP.
The only way I'd be interested in a custom ROM is if the developers were on a very long release cycle where they spent months ironing out every tiny bug before tinkering with new things, similar to how OEMs approach stock ROMs. That seems rare these days, though I don't follow things too closely anymore. "Man this ROM is amazing... except, oh yeah, Bluetooth breaks and requires a reboot... oh, and calls drop a lot... and, uh, call volume randomly goes to max/silent for no reason... oh yeah, and MMS just doesn't show up sometimes, and the camera crashes every 3rd open requiring another reboot" seems to be the way of the world, and I don't have patience for it. Putting up with random bugs can be worth it if it frees you from TouchWiz or Sense or LG UI, but when the stock ROM is already AOSP and fast/fluid, I don't see the point.
http://www.androidauthority.com/moto-x-style-pure-edition-nougat-758023/
I have to agree that stock rooted ROMs are my way of going now. Of course that also means I won't buy from makes like Samsung who overburden their ROMs with too much frill. Besides, with manufactures like one plus, the is really no reason to revert.
good news

I'm on RW too. Are you using a certain version that's working good? I just don't wanna messed up my service, but would love to try 7.1.1.

not really, it's way too late imo. Start of soak test doesn't mean a lot, I guess in some regions you will have to wait like more than month since now, I guess everyone willl get it in may as it was said before, that's way too long for not so old flagship phone... We should have 7.0 already and 7.1 in may but it's not going to happen ;\ shame on you moto

Not Moto's fault. Blame it all on Lenovo, as the Moto's work force is pretty much non-existent.

Honestly, a while... It usually goes Brazil, India, Europe, then US and UK (sometimes US/UK flip-flop). To be honest, Lenovo doesn't see the US as a major market, these phones are not carrier subsidized so their market penetration is minimal at best. US is always the last to get Moto (Lenovo) updates in the last 12-18 months. Not likely to see that change anytime soon. Each region will have it's own beta if history repeats, we are at minimum 2-3 months out in the US.

Hi everyone, just picked up my Mate 9(MHA-L29 C567) about a few days ago, I love this device already, everything from the build to the software(ROM).
However I am pretty stumped on the fact that the custom rom development lacks for this phone but I see a few ROMs that are debloated n what not, i see that unlocking the BL and flashing is a bit more different than what I dealt with in the past. Mind you I was a flashaholic for all the phones I have owned
My question to everyone here is, is it wise to stick with just the stock ROM or should I go and flash a debloated ROM? Has anyone noticed any differences at all(Battery, SOT, Speed etc)? Rooting and all that can be done but I just dont know if its worth flashing since Ive noticed the ROM dates on these are a bit dated and nothing much has changed
I used to root my phones and use custom ROMs in the past. Matter of fact, at times I flash a different custom ROM every week.
But since I noticed the ambiguity in rooting this phone, the rate at which people where bricking (sometimes need to pay FH to be rescued), lack of development but most importantly, the phone is quite fast and UI isn't too bad, I decided to save myself the headache.

Same here I was heavily into flashing ROMs and rooting my devices not even 24 hrs of ownership, but with me looking up the process of just even rooting the phone really concerns me with the amount of bricks I am seeing, and yes the phone and UI is already top notch
I added a poll for everyone to vote for
I think this thing stock is pretty good. Just got this a few days ago (MHA-L29 C567) and I'm coming from a Note 4. This thing is freaking fast as it is. Any bloat I disabled/uninstalled if it would let me. I to am a total flashaholic, but with this I feel theres no need. As long as Huawei gets some updates going through the pipes I'm happy with this thing!

Same here, i uninstalled/disabled unnecessary apps, still very snappy, even from day 1 it was fast
I hope so too about Huawei sending out updates, if we get Oreo I'll be set till the Mate 11 or whatever Huawei is going to provide

It should see at least one major upgrade I would think. I mean it's a flagship and just under a year old
Stick with stock
I would flash a custom rom if it was easy just for fun... But I am happy with it
First phone I haven't rooted - there are a few tweaks I'd like, and a few apps I'd like to uninstall, but apart from those minor issues this phone is a gem.
(yet another Note 4 user)
Stick with stock. Root and uninstalling unwanted apps are pretty easy.
I flashed custom rom however I think the stock rom is very good and has better battery life. I flash custom rom just for fun and I like the extra function of KangVip apk.
ok i am flashaholic
unlocked, root, twrp and flashed two roms from here (RomAur and Ephemeral Mate 9) but they ****ed up my M9 (bootloop and lot of other s..t) then back to stock then all again then rebrand, then Firedance rom for L29, then next ver., then next, then rebrand back to L09 then flashed Firedance-MHA-L09C432B194 from other forum and thats a winner
now waiting for next ver.
I was also a flashaholic once upon a time. This is the first device I have not rooted. I feel the stock experience has taken on a new life, things that we used to root for are now becoming part of the stock system. The only thing I wish I could have is a system wide add blocker. I know there are ways to do this without root (and I'm using them) but the root variants are better.
Nevertheless, keep this thing stock, don't root, use the heck out of it and don't think about it. [emoji3]

I suppose you can flash it and keep root if you pre root it and package it as a flashable zip. As far as keeping data, I don't think so.

for all those that say that emui is better than........... well..... anything else, thats just wrong. i had this phone for about a week and i sold it asap. i bought it off ebay for a real cheap price. i fixed the cracked screen and found someone at school that wanted it. emui is just bad. its not as bad 4.0 and what not but its still horrible.
its far too modified to be of any use. if huawei just added their own bloat and "optimizations" without the UI crippling it would be okay. as it is one cant add any quick tiles which is horrible. almost all other oems dont cripple android to the same extent as huawei.
sadly the mate 9 has no custom roms and it looks like it will never have them so its not viable choice. i dont see that changing anytime soon.
The first android that I haven't rooted.
I'm using blokada to block ads which is working pretty well but I wish there was a way of deleting some of the stock apps (especially the calendar) or at the very least deactivating them so they didn't come back.

That's exactly what I would be looking to do too, Allan on a C567 (well currently that anyway, rebranded). Let me know if you have any luck doing it.

Well, that's YOUR opinion. A lot of people like it this way.
I've been wanting to update to Oreo but I don't know if it's stable or not, has anyone tested it as a Daily driver yet?
For me, it's super stable (I've got an FRD-L09C432). I updated the same day that the update came out for my device through HiSuite about 1.5 month ago.
It feels like it charges faster and drains less battery (But that might be because I did a factory reset after updating).
But I'd say you should update if you could, I've heard people say that they've had problems but personally I haven't experienced any of them.
Oh, ok . Thanks for the info !
Will update tonight and hope nothing goes wrong !
