Hi, there is B179 for P10? Im on b171 and got no b179 update options
I would also like to know this.. I'm on B171 and it's kinda bad for me..heating and such a bad battery life with this version..
Huawei update politics is a neverending riddle. Here're many topics about this.
You can do a manual update with Firmware Finder if you can't wait, but there's no real changelog released by Huawei. Wait until they release Oreo for new features and fixes.
i am on L29-432b171 and everything is fine....got 5-6 h SoT (wifo always on, data on, location on, fb, whatsapp, some twodots gaming). i saw B179 only for L09 devices.

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...

Hello guys!
About a month ago i tried to flash Nougat on my p9+ with firmware finder, but i failed.
I solved flashing b170 then b360.
My phone works perfectly, but... with a bug.
Sometimes, when i write (especially on What's App), i see "ghost" tap on the top of the screen... This will evolve in a selection of a message while writing and it blocks the keyboard. So i need to lock then unlock my phone to "restore" the normal function.
I tried to hard reset my phone, but it won't works...
It's strange, because when i use the keyboard on any other screen, it doesn't happen, or in rare case.
Can you help me ?
Sorry for my bad english
I have the same issue. I asked in the form and no responce. Seems like it is a bug. May be in future updates huawei will solve this.
But updates are crazy slow for such a premium phone. I miss my A8 already.

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.

fixed my problems when i culdnt change themes, and culdnt upgrade os with build in phone updater
ps. dont use this, if you are on nubet, use it only on marshmalow. or from nuget, first dload rolback package!
My phone has been on (has not turned off or restarted) in 80+ days. Nothing much else to share. Still working great! The only issue I have noticed is that my battery is dying a lot faster than before. May be related to not restarting, but I'm not sure.
What about during OTA updates?

Hey! That is the downfall. I had not received an OTA update since I flashed to a UK version (for the fingerprint scanner).
I ended up restarting the phone after 100 days. Phone did a great job. Also, I recently flashed another custom firmware so that I could acquire the September 2018 update. The battery life on this phone is incredible (after the September update).
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!
