Dear Team,
I how you guys are doing amazing , i was about to buy new mate 30 pro for a very good deal but thought should i ask is it safe to buy mate 30 pro this year considering mate 30 is 2 years old mobile also Please confirm how many years Huawei software and security support is available ? is it 3 years or 2 years ?
Looking forward for your support on this cheers !
Hi guys. Looking for kind support on this please .
I have it, I use for camera. I have gone away from relying on google apps, found alternative. Only thing I hate is lack of updates and customization since I came from owning a S9+ for couple of years.
Battery is very good, I recommend. 7.5 outta 10, if there was more internal UI customization and quicker updates I would go for 9 outta 10.
Also. The price was very good, saved like $500 compared to new Samsung fan edition.

Can't help you on that, I'm not too fuzzed about updates. I just hope the new US gov allows GMS on the phone or if I'm able to update to harmony OS.

The Mate 30pro was released end of September 2019, that makes the oldest Mate 30 pro's 18 months, about 1.5 year old. My wife still receives security updates on her mate 20 pro so I believe they provide 3 years of security updates.

Amazing , one more stupid question if we compare redmi k40 with mate 30 pro and oneplus 8T what will be your choice ?
MY 2 cents here.. I wanted to get the Mate 30 pro so bad recently as a secondary phone, but the lack of google services, the difficiculty for sideloading some apps, reminded me of my times with the Blackberry Z10. I would choose something "more compatible" so to say, and wait until they announce google services can be in place again.
I just bought one. The price was the main reason. 400 euros for a absolutely new one with 2 years warranty . My main phone is Z fold 2 but here on first view the screen is crystal clear. Just beautiful. And I have used half a year an P40 pro without GMS. So this is not so bad for me. And the camera is also so so much more better. I thinking now to sell the Samsung one.

Have had the Phab 2 Pro since Jan. I purchased this for the large screen and it does deliver. I love the large screen, and the phone is fast also(at least for me). But I can't help but feel left out on the software upgrade bandwagon. Still stuck on December Security updated and Android 6.0.1. I knew going in that updates could be a problem so I am not trying to sound like I am complaining. I have started to eye new phones and there are just not that many prospects for large screen phones in the US. Samsung is getting close with the S8+, but I don't want to lose any screen real estate at all. If anything I would go larger. I am eagerly awaiting the final Note 8 specs.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a replacement for the Phab 2 Pro that at least has the same screen size or larger?
Thanks
Wrong purchase. It is useful for tango.
(Lenovo is ridicolous for update and security patch... I am "stalkering" the forum and the facebook group... Nothing happen)

It was the right purchase at the time for me as I wanted a large screen phone and I love it, but I am starting to look ahead and do not see any alternatives out there for the US as far as large screen phones. I admire the ASUS Zenfone 3 Ultra but it does not support ATT LTE here in the states. I guess we just do not have enough people wanting large screen phones in the US. As for me I love them!
I LOOOOVED the phone but it didn't text reliably for me in Suffolk, VA (although it did for someone in New York).
I, too, am bummed that large screen phones are not popular enough here in the USA - I don't get it... Anyway, I have seen the Note 8 and feel like it's the wrong shape. Long and skinny???
I got the Huawei Mate 10 Pro 128GB which was released 9n February 18th. I got it with a $150 gift card from Amazon and received it on Sunday, February 18th! I know you are not going to believe it - but I haven't even set it up yet! But today is THE DAY!!! I have been holding off because it doesn't have an sdcard slot (I am just comfortable with an sdcard) and I didn't really like the shape of that screen, either... But realized that I wouldn't get any better specs for the price and, being a USA release, I might have decent luck with updates.

Check out the Mate 20 X. It's 7.2 inches of awesomeness with full LTE support here in the US.

Guys, as time reaching near who all are excited for V10 ? I may end up buying it actually.
Not even a year, honor 9 already outdated
The Custom Dev here is dead and..yes this Honor would be my last Honor.
Another Honor? Yea right.... H9 was my first and last, thank God I found a casual user ok to buy it from me. Coming from OnePlus and staying there now. 5t all da way. ?

You are wrong, the V10 is the successor to the V9 (H8 Pro).
H9 remains their current year flagship. @FlyingMachete the future looks bright, oreo with treble is incomming which will most likely solve alot of problems for us devs.

Hi,
The Oneplus One was a great phone, it's been almost 4 years but it's the end, I broke it, the screen and the camera ... broken, the screen isn't responding anymore, the frame all around is in bad shape too .... I took care of it, there was no scratch, but i broke it at work trying to fix desk -_-
First of all I want to thanks the xda Oneplus One community, it's been fun ... Cyanogen 4.4 KitKat to Android Oreo 8.1 Always someone to help, with developers who do their utmost to give us the best :good: .
I'm actually using my old Nexus 4 for now but i'm thinking to buy the Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus.
Do you guys have a suggestion for a new phone that I can buy ??? (The Oneplus Five is too expensive for me unfortunately )
PS: English is not my native language, sorry for any spelling mistakes
PS: Just realized i'm in the wrong section -_- should be in "ONE Q&A, HELP & TROUBLESHOOTING", Sorry about that
hi,
i had a oneplus one too until recently, i got a xiaomi mi a1. i can recommend it!
Hello,
I have the oneplus one from 4 year old too and it work perfectly (never change any parts).
I think change for the new oneplus six, but seriously I don't need more, the one is good for me.
Big thanks to the xda community, for developers, this smartphone survive a long time.
I've considered changing too, but I finally decided to keep my one a couple of years more (if possible). This said, right now I would pick Redmi 5 Plus in the lower tier, Nokia 7 Plus in the middle one or LG v30 as top device at a good price.
Good luck with your choice, but keep in mind nothing will actually replace your One. It was like the girl of your like ??
Budget phone definitely Xiaomi Mi A1
I would recommend Xiaomi mi6 or if you can wait for mi7 (This would be my choises if my bacon got rotten)

Both the parts(screen and camera) are available on eBay. Replace yourself and bring your OPO back to life. Anyway,going for Redmi Note 5(3gb variant) or Redmi Note 5 Pro would be a better choice than Redmi 5 Plus.The former one costs just a little over Redmi 5 Plus.
I'm quite interested in MiA1 or maybe Nokia 6 2018
I'm still using my OPO sinc oct 2014, even if i dropped it in the water( only the front camera broke, even after changing it iti didnt get fixed, maybe it's something else like the connector or a resistance ...) and i was planning to change it for the 1+6 but after seeing it will have a notch i changed my mind and i hope my opo will survive another 2 years lool because sincerly it's a beast, if i compare it to phones from the same year( Z2, S5, M8) it's the only one who is still working perfectly and smoothly( i see my friends whith the phones i'vve mentionned strugling lol), thanks to this incredibly community, so i hope i don't brake it or get stolen or brake itself for another 2 years, but for you what can i say, cant' you for exemple find a used 3T?? it's a very good phone even if it's not the new one
The great thing about Oneplus One has been the developer community which has been keeping the phone after so many years.
Does any current phone has such a developer community?
Xiaomi note 5 pro is a good budget phone with good camera.Heard Mi A2 is expected to launch next month but has a less battery and may not have support of Google.
Essential phone has been on sale in various countries.. check it out.
I would highly suggest Nokia phones otherwise.. budget + fastest updates after Google pixel series of course.

Nokia would have been a very good choice only if they allowed unlocking bootloader and released kernel sources of all their devices.
Source - https://www.xda-developers.com/hmd-global-kernel-sources-bootloader-unlocking/
They released kernel sources for a few devices but still no official way to unlock bootloader.

Gonna miss my girl when I move on to next phone ;_;
Using OPO for 4 years /w 4 screen replacements ??
I hope people respond to this and I hope it sends a message.
Firstly, I have simply loved so much about this phone. Camera, battery, screen etc! However, most importantly, the Huawei sanctions and walled garden that I, and others, have truly hated means that I will likely never recommend or use another Huawei after this ...
UNLESS THERE IS A CHANGE!
Please help send a message and reply to this message. Especially to my AL00 CN version brethren and sisters, but also the Western version users.
At any rate, my hope is that you can help and, together, we can make a statement... and that someone from Huawei reads this and S-T-O-P-S the bull****.
Of course, I could be a massive minority (would not surprise me). But I simply just wish for this company to allow users like myself the freedom to use their devices as we want.
Having said that, though, there will likely be other options on the horizon soon that spark our interest ----- and maybe that might just be the fun of it all.
Is it goodbye, Huawei? Please help Huawei listen and keep this thread going.
Sorry, dont have the needs for rooting at all.
I like the phone as it is, but its stuoid for those people who have the needs to root the phone and then they not allowed... Stupid.

The note 10+ is a a bit close to the price i'm selling my mate 20X, if i sell in this month, i'll maybe.. just maybe, buy Note 10+ or i'll wait for the Mi fold *this smart will be so ****ing beatifull*
I've just bought the note, picking up from local store shortly.
I'm going to put my 20X on ebay and see how it does
What effect does the walled garden have ? I've just ordered the CN version!
Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk
Never again. No more Huawei for me. I also got AL00 CN version. Love and hate this thing at the same time. Managed to root it before they stopped that, but when I pay so much for a phone I want to be able to do what I want with it. I have RR on mine. Honestly, never again.
I just sold mine, i'm buying oneplus 7 pro, or i'll wait for the 7T pro, i don't know what to buy it. I know that oneplus 7T will be lauching in 16 days i guess. But i don't have that time to buy it at china. Better buy for now the 7 Pro
I returned my note 10 plus and picked up this phone. I love it.
The Mate 20 series is quite capable but the fact you can't use a different launcher (on Chinese version which I own) among other things has me looking elsewhere. Interested in Samsung's folding phone. It apparently has been released in Korea and will soon be released in US...
i hace AL00 and I hope to find a phone with a 7-inch screen is the only thing I will miss my 20x mate. But I will never use Huawei again because I can't customize many things from the launcher and besides I need the code to do the unlock bootloader. I left the iPhone because it was very limited and Huawei is the Apple of Android. I guess I will buy a Xiaomi or maybe an Asplus or Nokia oneplus those are my options Samsung seems very expensive to me every time and I don't see much innovation.
I wish I could appeal to Huawei directly.
All we can do is hope that stuff like this, opens the companies eyes:
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/201...-for-installing-google-apps-on-huawei-phones/
But I guess non-chinese are a significantly smaller market to huawei at the moment?

I really wish Huawei would listen to this message.
My guess is that once they open their boot loader, it becomes obvious that they have some intellectual property issues .
Good for the consumer in the long run.
Knock knock, Huawei.

Now that Android 11 has been released today (9/8) for the Pixel series, what kind of timeline can we expect to see for OOS11 implementation from OnePlus for the OnePlus 7 Pro? Apparently the 8 series will get android R first but we are right behind them so I have fingers crossed for a swift release
according to the oneplus tables, the 7pro should receive android 11 no earlier than November / December

OB for OP7 Series will be only after Stable release on OP8 Series. And Stable release will be not Earlier December. But as for me, I prefer OOS 10 over OOS 11.
Can you imagine paying 800€ for a flagship only to be treated like a second class citizen only one year later? Yeah, screw OnePlus never buying anything by these crooks ever again.

All pixel devices get Android 11 update same day Google release it start from pixel 2 release in 2017 & have a good software record compare to OnePlus.
Stop!
Get some help!
No-one here can tell you when, judging by previous releases, probably November but they only released BETA 1 for the OnePlus 8 family today, so it might even be next year.

I am going to hazard a guess and say probably the end of the year or beginning of next. I've been rocking stable oos for the last 8 months myself and haven't even test driven 11. It's kinda hard to believe that I'm the same person who used to crack-flash anything remotely interesting and even when i loved a Rom i couldn't stay on it for more than two weeks because I felt like i was missing something. This phone has been so glitch free me on 10 that i didn't realize 11 was here.
What's the deal with Android R, is it any good?

My point exactly. I was being sarcastic.
Just waiting AOSP 11 ROMs... OOS11 sadly are not a nice option. I don't want to transform my OP device in a Samsung looks like device.
Thankfully with unlocked bootloaders, we can install custom ROMs and maintain the stock Android look. OxygenOS 11 looks like a less refined One UI skin and a disappointment for those who bought a OnePlus device for a near stock experience. Still I know a stock rom will help with kernels and overall stability.
