How to update MHA-L29C185B172?

Hello!
I see update MHA-L29C185B172, but not on FF. I want this update.
Now my phone is MHA-L29C185B158. Battery endurance is not great.
Is battery better this update? How to update for free?
Thanks. Sorry for my English.

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%.
What is everybody result?

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)

MIUI 10 Global Closed Beta Leak

http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.6.14/miui_MIMIX2SGlobal_8.6.14_9cc38e37db_8.0.zip
This ROM was leaked in the MIUI Forum. The one who leaked this has his post deleted.
Even for the beta team this ROM has bricked one device, so, do it on your risk.

Booted perfectly flashed with TWRP on mine. Thanks.

Could anyone test SafetyPass and GPay on this beta? Of course with Magisk installed. I'm wondering if this functionality has been fixed with this build

My device is the Global model one. Can I install without unlocking bootloader?

Then you only need to setup ro.build.fingerprint with magiskhide props config module. Everything is in the guide thread here on Xda.

I just flashed and Wifi is not working. Is this happening to anyone else?
EDIT: Looks like I didnt update firmware. I used MiFlash instead and its now working fine.

So whats the benefits besides it being MIUI 10. From what I have been reading not much. Just trying to do a cost / benefit analysis on upgrading...

New UI, Faster, better notifications and all of the Android Oreo features.

Installed! Fairly nice. No notifications on lock screen but I figure that's more a theme issue than the miui 10. Like the jesters and full screen mode!

There are a few themes on the theme app that have lock screen notifications. These are old themes so they cause other crashes though.

It’s probably a programming item in MIUI 10... plus the fact that no themes made for 10 with notifications exist yet (or are very limited). My notifications light works so not a big deal. We’ll see what the next release gives us... I would assume they will try to drop a new beta weekly or bi-weekly. Haven’t been following how fast the China releases came out. Did anyone also notice or maybe it’s me... notification shade doesn’t change either with theme?

Rollback to Oreo

Hey guys and gals!
Android P is absolutely terrible and I can't believe I haven't checked it before updating. Now I heavily regret it I want to go back to Oreo - could you link me to some information on how to do this on OnePlus 6?
Thank you a lot in advance!

I feel like there is always a section of the userbase that will always hate new OTA's that change things up a bit more than they expected.

If I wanted iOS I would have bought an iPhone. The recent apps menu is garbage and a huge downgrade, the volume control is also awful. No to mention changes in the UI design that look worse than what we had with KitKat. Pie is a huge downgrade compared to Oreo.

You can simply download the OREO full rom and flash it as a local upgrade or if you have twrp, simply follow the steps to flash after wiping the system (not internal storage). Here is a link (see item number 3) for downgrade at the OP6 website. I have not tried it but should work

if we install an earlier oneplus apk launcher from apk mirror (or titanium backup the one we have from oreo) would it have the vertical recent apps?

Can anyone confirm if this works? I too would like to downgrade. At least for the moment...
CapitalOne app currently doesn't work
Pandora lockscreen controls aren't there
Substratum without root is gone
Silent adjustment of volume bars no longer possible
3.5mm output volume is lower (on streaming apps)

Yes it works. I rollback from H2 os PIE to Oos Oreo 5.1.9 at that time.

Will Twrp get erased?/
If we try local upgrade option to roll back. Will I lose the Twrp?

Any idea if the theming in lineageos will allow you to change accent color to colors other then the awful Google ones... Or even better pick your own color code?

None whatsoever. Just saying Official Lineage OS is available now. Download links are up.

Surprised no one else has replied or shown interest

There needs to be a thread setup for this.

Can you answer my above question about theming. I would hate to go through the entire reload process and find that i can't have a decent accent color

Do we need to use Magisk Canary for LineageOS 17.1 on bonito or can we use Magisk v20.4 Stable channel?

Those look good actually.... Unfortunately when I load Los simcard would just fc over and over and opengapps caused me to bootloop. Without even a thread for support this makes Los a very poor choice for a daily driver... At least for me having already experienced all these issues

I had an FC for data transfer tool. This sorted itself out after updating things on the playstore, but obviously initially setting up the phone required me to skip things.
Its odd you should mention the verizon network as the sim provider as there is an apk within the system specific to verizon. I wonder if this is the cause? May need updating or something by the LOS team.
I am using it in the UK on EE and i dont have an issue with the ROM. Seems to be working nicely.
There are changes already waiting to be merged on the next update for using custom icon packs etc, so i'm looking forward to that. You can see the changes waiting here https://download.lineageos.org/bonito/changes/
Shame you guys are having issues.

Not so worried about it not working right of f the bat as that they're is no thread for Los and no dm to work with here and report errors to. It may be official but they're really as of this moment is no support for our device at all, so when issues occur they're isn't likely to be a remedy. It's really a shame as I like Los as lot and have used it exclusively in the past

Red cable / cloud advertisement in settings

Do the EU / Global firmwares have this thing in the settings or is it only India specific? I'm really annoyed!

I'm on EU, I've never seen that, but I'm logged in with OnePlus account and also I use Blokada, so I don't have ads anywhere.

You could have just removed the red cable crap. Seems easier that way. I was annoyed to get an Indian version too. Hopefully that's the only difference.
