Can someone explain to differences between 'apps locked in recent tab' , 'protected apps' and apps that 'ignore battery optimization'?
From what I understand:
-apps locked in recent tab just "stay there" after you press trash icon for quick access later on, but are closed when you lock your phone;
-protected apps don't close when you lock phone, if you keep all it's like having regular phone with stock/CM;
-apps what ignore battery optimization will be closed when you lock phone, but when you are running them they'll use all resources like if you were using "Performance" power plan.
Am I right, or did I get something wrong?

Will someday any CM (Lineage) based ROM fully support this camera? Like in EMUI stock, with dual cameras, manual controls etc. I mean is it even possible? Or for best camera experience you're forced to use EMUI?

Sorry if this sounds silly to you guys as I'm not as adept as others, but in order to run these updates successfully, do I need to be:
1. Unrooted
2. Running Stock Recovery
3. Have the Bootloader Locked
I have issues trying to update from B136 to B182, where the update fails at various percentages.
Can I go from B136 to B182 or do I have to gradually update? Any help is really appreciated, TIA!

Hi , I have flashed device before and opened bootloaders.
First of all I need to unlock bootloader. what is the best method ?(SRK)? And then I need to flash TWRP ? to gain root/su
Can someone give me a recipe on how to achieve this . I read a post that if you lived in Europe it could be difficult to achieve unlock code from Huawei. But If I have to pay 4 euros I dont think I will play around with ROMS.

UPDATE: I flashed the Full B166 - not the OTA - and this worked straight away. It then allowed me to update to B182 OTA and that worked without issue also.
Bootloader remained unlocked. Not that it is an issue as I would have unlocked it anyway.
From B136 ..
1. Unroot
2. Stock Recovery
3. Flash B166 Full (not B166 OTA)
4. OTA Upgrade to B182
5. TWRP Recovery
6. Root

Hello, i'm frontera Argentina and my LG G4 finally got his bootloop problem, so I'm going to buy a new phone (not LG) and I'm deciding between Huawei P9 or Moto Z play. I know there are completely different phones, but my only doubt about the Huawei are the updates of the firmware, how is it? I know that Moto have their phones up to date, and that's something important, how about P9? Worth it?
DELETED... Wrong thread.
Hello XDA.
This is my first post on forum and as you can tell, i'm a noob and a proud owner of EVA-L09 running on emui 5.1 (android 7.0). I'd like to start my adventure with rooting this device cause custom ROMs like "ressurection" are very tempting. There are some guides on how to do this but considering date of creating these, I feel that it might be outdated.
I need a step-by-step (for a total idiot) guide according to my version of os etc. It would be awesome if someone who owns custom tweaked P9 shared some personal advices and recommendations on best ROM possible for this particular device. I hope that it's not too much to ask I'm just really careful so if I'm throwing my warranty to trash, I want it to be worth it.
Thank you for your time
Hello,
I have Huawei P9 with android 6.0, EMUI 4.1 and build number : EVA-L09C900B132

I hope that you guys can give a tutorial of what should i do.

Urgent: how to backup photos and contacts from a hacked Huawei P30 phone?
I have a Huawei P30 phone not rooted and never been in strangers hands.
Few months ago this crazy woman shared a fake video on my Facebook page. I clicked on it but won't open unless I installed a "flash plugin", obviously fake. I did it and the video won't open anyway. Few hours later she started to tease me about things I said privately to my friends via Whatsapp and Instagram, and in the following months she started insulting me with fake Instagram profiles every time I chatted privately with other girls, once making a clear reference to a picture I held in my private gallery.
I believe that the only way to get rid of this trojan/RAT is to factory reset my phone. But, considering I have more than 10 thousands photographies, 700 videos and 1500 contact numbers, I would like to save these datas, even manually.
To do this, can I 1) plug the hacked smartphone into my PC with a USB cable, while keeping them both OFFLINE, 2) then manually export contacts, photos and videos? Then 3) transfer these datas, always manually, into a brand new Iphone?
THANKS

Post to the proper Forum - this forum is for P9 (older Android, EMUI), not for your P30
Hi. I'm currently on C432B166 and have previously contact Huawei and was told that the update rollout will run until the end of June for the UK.
I would like to update manually but not sure what i need to do and what i need to download. I do not want to root my phone or anything like that. I do not have access to a computer for anything. So my only way is to do everything via my phone. I would be very great full in any help or guidance offered. Thanks in advance.

Harder without a pc... But not impossible, especially if you don't want to root.
You'll need to download the c432b182 update, & install using the dload method. Then the c432b361 update the same way. The phone should auto update itself at that point to b378
I'm not going to post links to the updates as they can change, but not too difficult to find in the stock firmware thread and elsewhere.
The dload method is easy as well... Extract the update zip you downloaded. Copy the extracted dload folder and all contents to your microSD card, turn off the phone and turn it back on holding both volume buttons.
You should be able to use the firmware finder app as well, don't use it myself, but don't think it needs root.

P10 lite rom
Please, does somebody have a backup of p10 lite WAS-LX3 rom? I wipe my device rom with TWRP.
Please help me.....
I've rooted the P10 Lite - what now?
I got the WAS-AL00 version.
I managed to root this phone based on instructions I found on this forum.
Then I tried installing some Google apps, starting with Google Services and the Pixel Launcher.
Once installed, Google Services wants to update, but the update does not work, and the phone just turns idle without anything happening.
None of the other Google apps I tried installing works (Gmail, Contacts, Youtube, etc).
This is my first experience rooting a phone. I was expecting that once I root the phone, I can do pretty much whatever I want with it, but apparently without the right tools, that's not possible.
What exactly needs to happen next in order to be able to use this phone in the USA with full access to Google apps?
yep needed.

You should be able to install apps from Google Play with a rooted phone, this isn't normal.
What root method have you used?

I've used the method described here.
I checked the root with the root checker app, which gives an error message saying the root access was not installed properly
I tried installing Google Services but it's not updating, and therefore not working.
The phone is great otherwise, just not taking any Google services, and most of my usual apps, so I use it as a paperweight right now.

Questions belong in the 'Questions' section.
In your position i wouldn't do anything less than a run through of the unbrick tools. To my mind that's about as clean a reset of your software as you can get. Even then a stubborn virus might still linger. Have you tried any of the virus scan apps from the store yet?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.malwarebytes.antimalware

Unbrick guides:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/unbrick-unbrick-tutorial-oneplus-3t-t3515306
https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/guide-oneplus-3-3t-unbrick.531047/
If you're not at all confident in being able to follow those guides, or if no apps from the Store are any help, you should send your phone to Oneplus, or have a friend run through the guide for you.
Question:
When you did the Factory Reset, did you boot into the OS without signing into your account and without restoring apps to check if the .zip was gone? Because if you do have malware it's most likely from an App you installed. Restoring the same app, or restoring a backup that has the malware would obviously reinfect you, even after a Factory Reset.
Try the reset and once done boot into Android, skipping all setup steps. Don't restore anything. Is the problem still there? If not, don't restore anything that isn't from the Play Store.
The name of that .zip sounds like you might have tried installing some custom voice pack for Turn-by-Turn navigation? Don't install random .apk files from unreliable sources!
There is no virus for Android and there is no way that anything harmful would survive after a factory reset.
Something else is happening and probably the OP has some other problem with his device.

People use the terms virus and malware interchangeably. Being a pedant about what term he uses isn't helpful at all. While it may not be a 'virus', Android can easily be host to any number of malware problems.
...and there is no way that anything harmful would survive after a factory reset.

While i mostly agree, a Factory Reset leaves the /system partition intact. Malware could theoretically replace system binaries with malicious versions. I'm sure malware like 'DroidDream' were more than capable of surviving simple resets.

Could be, but I have no reason to doubt his claim. Sounds to me to be a simple case of sideloading a dodgy .apk. If the .zip mentioned in the OP is surviving a Factory Reset, it could be one of two things. Either some nasty malware or something that is being restored after the reset. Either sideloaded by the same .apk or restored via a backup method like TiBU.
As i mentioned above, he should reset and check before restoring anything.
I've seen adware recently that was displaying Ads in a users Dialer, generated by an infected Play Store app. They had to reinstall apps one at a time to discover which app had the malware.
Thanks Dirk
thanks for your answer the first question I have is why the unbrick tools
the second is I download the antivirus from the Play Store application runn the antivirus program to the system and did not detect any virus or anything It says my phone is clean
The third I did the Factory reset I even created a new email account and I did a clean installation I did not backup any application I downloaded them again from the Play Store I have never downloaded applications outside the Play Store what has happened is that after the factor and reset the first two days the phone is working the third day be using it starts to fail the applications that always installed on Facebook WhatsApp Google translator and others I can make a list If you want but everything has been from the Play Store and are applications downloaded by thousands of people
fourth and if I can not download anything from Play Store Then what I can do to download applications where you recommended to download the application I will do the Factory reset and follow the steps mentioned and not install anything from Play Store I'll let you know what happens
fifth I'll be more aware to see what is installed
sixth You think a headphone wireless can install a virus or malware or something like that I remember that something weird happened when I plug my headphones and by mistake I accept something that I'm not sure why was

the third day i turn he phone off and turn on the phone on when I go to archive the file is there again then the phone star going slow it get out control like do think by himself like close the app o ver Freeze or the app that I have open stop working and I remember ask me to accept some kind of voice permission by mistake I accept this time the volumen get lower that is it normal I raise the whole volume and it is heard less than previously I want to have a phone clean out the problem but Whit this

I mentioned before that the .zip you named before sounded like a custom voice pack for turn-by-turn navigation. When i Googled it there were similar sounding .zips on a few fileshare sites. I assume these are malware. Now you get problems with "some kind of voice permission". You can see how these things might be related, yes?
Do you use navigation? What App do you use? Have you installed any custom voice packs?
I don't know what you mean by "the archive". Do you mean Internal Storage? Can you upload a screenshot?
My guess is that one of the apps you keep installing is bad. Malware or just bad coding, it doesn't matter. You should factory reset and only install Google Apps for now. Don't install anything else. That means during the setup process on the clean install, when you sign in and sync your account you don't want to automatically restore your Apps. Install only Google Apps from Play Store after setup and run the phone like that for a while to see if it fixes the problem.
To rule out a bad OTA/Install of OOS 5.0.6, follow these instructions to reflash the ROM:

2) not really
Devices with almost pure Android like Oneplus don't really need a custom Rom.
Especially when they still get regularly updates like 3T.
Rooting and other info are provided too, we are not here mostly for custom Roms.

OOS is not "almost pure Android" and neither are most Custom ROMs. You're comparing Apples to Oranges.

It is not malware or a "virus", it required by Google Maps for voice navigation.
Had you open the archive and inspected its contents, or performed a simple Google Search, you'd know exactly what it was for.

Do you know how to use the forum's search option?
Or even find the member's signatures.
Then you would know if I am new or not.
And your question is irrelevant. I answered to your post about why people join XDA. U make wrong assumptions, which is not necessarily bad. It's worse that you try to convince about your arguments by posting incorrect info.

Hi,
Does root prevent updates? I am still from January 5th ?
How unroot for update ?
Regards.
Basically, you'll need to download & flash the latest image from Google and then redo the root (minus unlocking the bootloader, which won't be reset).

Nope, It's lost. You could have just updated the firmware manually, much simpler than messing with the bootloader lock.
It's not possible to recover SQL files for example ?
I personally made any reset, It's definitely lost ?

Yes. You must be signed into your Google account to back up data from your phone. Otherwise, a factory reset (such as when you lock or unlock the bootloader) wipes all user data, and there is NO way of recovering that data.
Good, I'll know it for next time.
