Hello guys and girls,
I have a little problem with my P9 (EV-L19 version). I bought the phone from Orange(The mobile company) it was brand new with Android 6.0. After a day i updated my phone to 7.0,everything was just fine 3-4days until i saw my phones battery is draining without using it(not a fast drain,but 10% per day its something), the battery was draining from 100 to 15 in 12-13hours.
So i thought it was because of bad software optimisation so i did a rollback and here is the problem,now i regret my choice and i wanna upgrade back to Android 7.0 (because to be honest, Emui 4.1 looks like crap beside Emui 5) and it says that my phone runs the last version of Android...how can i fix it?
P.S: Any solution for my battery life problem?
P.S#2: Why i couldnt use any themes from the Theme store?
Thank you in advice,sorry for my bad English.

Hello people i just received the OTA notification, but i'm worried to update, to be honest my phone worked pretty well till today and i'm very satisfied with it, but it's kinda annoying the notification popup , i tried to stop the service as well but it keeps popping out.
Anyways i bought this phone cause it's such a great phone for the price, and cause i knew it was going to get Lollipop update, and now that there is the update i'm kinda conflicted about so many differents comments around the forums, i checked here, some other forums, and on reddit but i couldn't find a proper review of the Pro/Cons to updating the phone to Lollipop 5.0.2 (most of the review i found were of the previous version of L, and i read that 5.0.2 got some major fixes ); so there's anyone that can kindly explain me if it regrets updating the phone, or what are the issues? battery life improvement? i know that it gets a better multitasking, but some people complain that is "sluggish"? also there's anyway to change or remove the white background from the app drawer?
thanks in advance for the help.
I updated my phone more than a month ago. At first the phone seemed sluggish ,as you said, and even after a full wipe things didn't get better. The thing is that after a few days the phone's performance was just as smooth as kitkat for me ( I guess the rom settled ) . Battery life is the same , although lollipop may seem to need more resources at times , and I also installed nova launcher with moonshine icon theme to get rid of the white app drawer background. In a nutshell , the only difference for me is the visuals / new features like ambient display which I happily use. I don't play games on my phone but I listen to music , watch videos on youtube and stay online for a few hours per day switching between apps. The only problem for me is the blurry camera ( which is also an issue on kitkat ) and the lack of actual silent mode.
ps. I would strongly recommend a full wipe before and after installing and disabling apps you dont need from settings in order to save battery and resources. Don't forget to back up everything before wiping / updating
It is worth it. The features and the UI are definitely great, but don't expect any real RAM improvements. Performance-wise, the phone still multitasks like my old Galaxy Y (which had 256mb of RAM), and I only keep WhatsApp on the background.
But hey, it's not any worse than KitKat and it's pretty, so I recommend it.
Agreed.
Material design looks good, performance is the same and so it's battery life (at least in my experience). I am happy with it.
I got the update 4 days ago and haven't had any problems. Is it faster? Hard to tell but it certainly isn't any slower.
Ram management for me is much better, no problems with multitasking, navigating listening to music, surfing the net, still shows 464Mbyte ram free and no restarts. No lag at all on any apps (59) all of which work fine.
Battery performance is in line with what I had on KitKat, which was pretty good, (Don't forget where you put your recharge cable). I have to admit that I am not a power user, (I can get up to 3 days out of one charge) but I use it a lot to record tracks with OruxMaps when I am walking, GPS on and screen off.
I don't use mobile data so have it turned off on all apps that use it, I have a separate mobile router (Much lower cost).
Finally from my experience I would say that updating was worth it, just to get rid of the terrible multitasking that came with KitKat 4.4.4.

now i am on EMUI 4.1.1. MM EVA-L09C432B182 and have system update notification for update to EMUI 5 N EVA-L09C432B378. as i can see lot of people rollback on MM after N, what is the reason for rolling back? is there battery problem, system problem or what?
It was the B361 version of the update that people want to roll back. Marshmallow was more smooth and battery efficient but as far as I know B378 update is far more superior in the terms of battery efficiency.

Just like almost every other software upgrade, B361 comes with a few bugs and things like performance and battery life was not as good as it was in MM. However, B378 fixed a lot of it.
Now I believe majority of people who has rolled back to MM is mainly based on user preference and bugs (not necessary EMUI 5.0 bugs) that is still around that annoys them. I recall some people hated the notifications and some apps does not play well with the new notification theme. Others did not like the changes made to the UI of EMUI 5.0 and prefer the UI in MM. Another reason is some apps just does not work well on EMUI for some reasons which causes battery drains and etc.
No matter what phone it is, no matter what os it is, there is always small group of people who make big noise about their small problems that they blame update for it.
I had lots of phones, different brands, and ALWAYS there where 10-20% of people who complain and say "I never gonna buy phone from >insert brand here<".
Its always problem of their specific device and apps they use that where installed in one version of OS and now they need to work in new one. Not to mention that most of people dont even bother to configure their phones properly...
As far as latest EMUI 5.0 for P9 here is few info:
-yes, battery life is slightly worst, but its less that 10% difference, but I can blame here applications and google services for that.
- there is no problem with gps or bluetooth,
-in terms of performance it work the same.
-only thing that I found that doesnt work is 720p mode in battery settings...
and that its.... just just bigger number of os version in phone info...
finally decided to install 7 nothing special except visual changes, and some lags...

I totally agree... for me is a good jump from MM to N but I noticed a little bit more than -10% battery backup.... I also point to some apps not optimized...

Hi to all!
I have a VIE L29 with Nougat. My screen was broken since August-2018 and honestly I couldnt change it, until today.
So after changing the screen, I turned on the phone, I initialized it (I dont know why it was factory reset) and for my surprise, there was no keyboard (only the G-talk method).
Then, inquiring into a little, I realized that now I dont have any NFC, nor Bluetooth, nor Updater App, nor themes app, nor Huawei App Store (and until here I arrived investigating)...
So here starts my question (sorry for the long intro, LOL)
I dont remember a lot of my phone... like I said, I dont touch it since August. But I remember that I updated it from MM to Nougat once. And I think that there began the problems.
Idk, maybe I did it in a wrong way?
Now I have C636 B370 (N). And searching a little in my XDA posts, it seems like I had B180 before (MM)
Edit: searching a little more, it seems like I tried a lot of extra versions before the actual one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/help/upgrade-l29-c636-to-nougat-t3784680
So what do u recommend to do to get stability and a great phone again?
Thanks a lot for reading!
Hi, I recently ordered an x2 pro (Global) based on its great on paper specs and the huge amount of glowing reviews on YouTube. But after I ordered I read on Realme's forums and a little on here about users experiencing multiple bugs in the newest update (c26) Including but not limited to , massive battery drain, slower charging, phone overheating, decrease in SOT by as much as 60%+, low FPS in games (especially PUBG), lag in launcher, microphone not working in calls unless you cycle speakerphone on/off etc. So that's a bummer if true. My question is kind of a poll of how many are experiencing this, or if its everyone? And if it is everyone, what is the recommended newest build until a fix comes out ? How is c24? Is it worth the minor bugs to have the newer interface, or is it just as unstable where I should just avoid Realme UI all together right now and just get the latest Color OS build ? Thanks and I look forward to everyones opinions and info.
Most of what you saw on C26 is not true ! What is true is loss of SOT primarily ! A significant portion of it ! Around 2 hours for me from 9 hours to 7 and that is really bad ! About PubG that is the game not the phone , to minimize "lag" use performance mode on game space ! Charging still is fine !
Remember most users are from India and summer is here so any phone will heat up .
What I recommend for most people that has their bootloader unlocked and has some custom recovery flashed is to go back to C24 . No battery problems and lags , is the best RealmeOS update FOR NOW !
Good luck ! You will love your new toy ?

Yeah the C24 android update is good , I can't find anywhere , but finally I found in Russian realme website , anyone wants to get this firmware , just download it from their site , the charging animation and the speed of the phone is also good .
Anyone know how to block the ota's ???
Thanks guys, going to install c24... It is prompting me to update to c26 from a10.... Anyone know how to disable ota's (temporarily) until a new update is out then I can turn it back on... If I knew what server it was checking I could block it or something. Anyone that know how to do this please let me know. Thanks in advance.
No real issues on c26 for me and I know a lot of people are happy,
No battery drain,in fact getting 10 and half hours SOT according to Accubattery,
Only charging once in the morning for 15 minutes,
Not a gamer so don't have the game lag that may just be an issue with the game such as PUBG,
No lag in launcher for me,using stock launcher with animations off,
Sound quality is actually louder and clearer for me than previous RUI updates
Only thing I did notice is occasionally hang in chrome where would just have to close chrome to get out.
C.24 I had worse issues with sound,hanging and phone restarting itself with flashing Realme logo.

Definitely,The newest update c27 is even better and as stable as colorOs,I Am in Europe but both the Indian and EU software is the same so you could get the software file from either support page and update, just download and use the file manager app to select the download file,
Easy

hi, i have an s10+ exynos (g975f) and i think i have been having problems since i updated from android 9 to 10 from updater. First, when I'm typing the s10 it seems to get stuck because I'm typing at a normal speed but keyboard puts other words!!!!!! this is very annoying, I was about to throw my phone on the floor!!!
Second, my phone is overheating more than usual, and this version has a lot of bugs with a lot of apps, even when i updated them. Really this cellphone has cost me much money i don't like to hate it. has this problem happened to someone else? i have some experience flashing phones (old models) but i think i know how to use odin and other programs well, and i wanna know what you recommend me guys, i would like to root with magisk the stock rom but i don't know in what version i can do that, i didn't like android 10 so much because of this errors, i just want compatibility with all and work calm and i don't want to flash custom roms because i need Samsung's original apps like gear 360.
I have heard the best rom for this model is stock rooted? I wanna know how to extend the battery life too, it has increased since the update.
What can I do guys?
Note: I did the Android 10 update without wiping data
Hi bro,
Even i have the same exynos model indian version and i dont face any lagging lr freezing issue like u have told above but even i face the heating issue.
I think u should format your device once it may help.
when my phone update to Android 10, I wipe the data clean and I have no issue with the phone at all. You should try it.
