I just updated my phone to the .128 (636) firmware and the improvement in the camera app is so huge compared to previous version. I was on .107(636). AI now detects the scene more consistently and apply the HDR extremely well. In my opinion the dynamic range is on par with pixel 2 or even slightly better with this version. I can shoot handheld night scene at shutter speed 1/24 without using the night mode which is usually at 4 seconds shutter speed (harder to handhold). The only way to get this firmware right now is via funky huawei though

I did not pay attention to the front camera because i hardly use it, the photos from the front facing camera looked the same to me. I am sure they did something to it too because the rear camera difference is huge, looks like the change the AI HDR algorithym or something.

If you unlock your bootloader and install TWRP it breaks Google Pay, right? (might consider this method if it doesn't).
is this new fw rootable with the original method? (magisk image)

It doesn't break google play... Depending where you are it voids your warranty.
Well you'll have to hurry if you decide to do it... Since they'll stop providing unlock codes soon. Just go to the uk support chat and ask for a bootloader unlock code, you should get it on you email in 2 days if they agree if not jjst go onto chat again and say you didn't recieve it... They should be able to provide it to you.

Lucky you, when I got mine it the site was down.
But I would really recommend doing it if you know yourself to be careful with your phone. The updated firmware is worth it...since it can be quite some times till huawei might push the update to your device/country/region. etc. so that's the only way to actually keeping up to date without having to wait a lot..

I don't know what is new. It says no changelog. It says funkyhuawei reddit page:
<<The unreleased MHA-L29C185B172 build has been added to FunkyHuawei. An accurate changelog has not yet been released, but the expected differences are better touchscreen response, and less power consumption for longer battery life, similar to the Chinese B173 build.
Even if you have another Mate 9 model, you can rebrand to MHA-L29C185 and install the firmware, with FunkyHuawei.>>
But trying one day battery time maybe is improved. Here is screenshots.

So far this is working nice firmware. Battery inside one day before was finish 30% but yesterday was with 75%.

Hi guys! How is the performance and battery life of this update B172? Thanks!
hi everyone.
two questions:
1: what is FF? is it another repository for firmwares? any links?
2: also, i don't understand the disapproval regarding fu***wei.. I tried installing TWRP on my Mate 9.. ended up almost bricking it.. (it was stuck in a bootloop and adb showed it as unauthorized.. I didn't know what todo)
I used the fu***wei method and although it was a little cumbersome.. (had to do it at home so I could modify the modem settings etc.)
it actually totally worked.. (took a while but it worked) The guy was super responsive too. (I guess I go thte time zones aligned just right to ask my questions but yeah, he'd respond within minutes of my e-mails..)
(btw, I came to this forum looking exactly for this model MHA-L29C185 I wish there were clearer instructions on how to do these things without paying etc but if there is a resource like this why knock it? i'm seriously curious)
Seems we're not

Did anybody notice that screen seems to be over sharpened? I saw in one of the YouTube videos that the reviewer also has over sharpened screen. Did anybody notice that on their q6 ?
Not sure of custom roms but yeah, at least Oreo is confirmed for us! Can't wait to experience it.
Then? LG is notoriously bad at update software. Unless we have custom ROM the phone will become abandoned in 2 years for sure.., unless oreo update has treble then maybe some little hope

If you have the Chinese AL00 version the posted [ROM][AL00] Mate 20 X GlobAL00ized beta [Debloated][Mostly Deodexed] rom fixes this issue!! You'd have to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP (also has been posted), format phone (including internal storage), install rom and optionally install Magisk for root. Using Nova with no issues selecting between Huawei Home and Nova from Default apps setting. Although it's using 175 and not 185.

That's one of the reasons i don't buy Chinese models. Works fine on EVR-L29 (C432)
I just want landscape on home screen for stock launcher. When I'm in recent apps in landscape and go back to home screen the home screen is in landscape for a split second. It looks so good.Too scared to do the root. Never have done that. If this was a 300 dollar phone I would try.

It won't work and fails. You have to flash stock recovery_ramdisk to do the update. Unless you're on [ROM][AL00] Mate 20 X GlobAL00ized beta [Debloated][Mostly Deodexed] rom in which case there are instructions to update to the new beta 2 version that will update to 185 during the process.
Huawei just push this update today to my phone as well.. I just said pass ! I will not Update from 175 to 185 since i see no improvements !
The only thing that upset me is the Option that 185 brings : Automatically Add Watermark Logo to Photos taken with Back camera !
Why you do this Huawei ! WHYYY.... Free advertising is good isn't ?
What if i want to post a pic to IG and i don't want people to see it was taken with my phone ... ?! Huawei is pushing our boundaries really hard... First, it was the Bootloader lock, then no 3rd Party Launchers, now Automatically Add watermark to our photos... Hmmm...

That setting is already there, it's just set to off now. The new firmware probably just defaults to on, so simply turn it off in camera settings.

it should work if your phone have the same model as the firmware mentioned
It will work but all future updates will be received when that region's variant is released. I have the NOBA J9110 and we are usually in the second release group but for some reason we were in the first for this release.

alternative method would be downloading the firmware through the xperifirm application and then creating a flashable firmware using flashtool and flashing with the flashtool application. Unless you unlock your bootloader you will loose the drm keys.
Ready. I flashed it with the Newflasher and the downloaded Firmware (Custom NOBA). It works excellent. Gestures of android 10, dark mode. I still did not test the camera. So far it works and responds very fast. Absolutely nothing was lost from DRM. Thank you all for replying.
