Hidden Google apps!

The apps Google play movies and google play magazines were hidden from my device till now! When using Titanium Backup, i found out and enabled them. Does someone know why Sony dis this so? Or is it normal? Am from India, using a sim free version of the device and its in stock .350!

In Italy those services are not enabled. What about India?
Maybe in India they aren't enabled too so the apps are hidden.

in germany it is enabled, i see "Google Play Movies" in my Apps list with the red film stripe icon.
as i know it has just been enabled a few months ago in germany whereas in the usa it's been going on for over a year now.
it's all about legal stuff and movie licences..

I too thought the same! The Play Movies was enabled in India last week and after being rolled out even it wasn't enabled till I did so and the same is wit magazines though they aren't enabled in India yet!
A strange doubt, how does Sony or Google know that the service is available in the respective country and how can they enable it in my device remotely? Can they?

they cannot..
they have to do an ota update that installs it to change anything on your mobile.

Of course they can ,the phone checks what country you're in based on the mobile network and not the SIM-card. .
Think also how the split the updates to the world ,today UK tomorrow Germany etc ..they can see a lot of ways

right, italian journalist went to USA with Xperia Z and when he came back he noticed he had these two apps. That's it

how would they check in which country you are in ? they need an app for that, which calls the home server by itself and tells them where you are ?
ok, sony has some update apps from sony. but do they really check the cell network you are in ? does it use google location based service ?
i don't know if it really does that. normally it's rolled out by serial number.
but without such an app or background service that is continuously sending data to sony or checking once a week, it's not possible for sony to know which device is where in the world.
i bought myself a device from asus from the uk with a UK Serial Number and the WWE Rom Version. i've only and just ever used it in germany, but i only got the UK OTA ROMS and got it when it was rolled out in the UK.
so without an app like sony update that connects periodically with sony servers and collects usage data, it's simply not possible. they OTA Updates are spread by Serial Numbers, that's what i was told by ASUS, and that's what happened with their devices. they don't have an update app like sony and that's why i wrote that in my last post.
does anyone really "know" what the sony update app is doing ? yes, no ? sorry, but if not, it's simply speculation on how the ota updates are rolled out.
imo the update app just checks for updates and submits the serial number of the device. it's a guess. if anyone knows better, please post.

ok, i guess the ip thing is easier to work with than an app reporting the used cell network bandwidth.. whatever, none of us knows what the sony app really does and by what cause the ota's are rolled out.

I think that we go off topic ,Sony Video Unlimited app can see in which country you are and if your area is supported by the app or not ,thats different with hidden google apps ,on the home screen pull your finger from downbar upwards and see another hidden google app starting

Where's the 5.1.1 update on my off-contract N6?

Sorry if this is a dumb question but this if my first unlocked/non-carrier phone. I've always been with Verizon and have grown accustomed to waiting 1+ years to get updates.
I just got my N6 on Friday and the latest OS version available is 5.0.1. I'm seeing news articles all over the place going back as far as early March saying that AT&T/Tmobile customers are getting 5.1.1 OTA updates. I was under the impression when I bought my N6, that because I'm buying a non-carrier/vanilla Google variant of the phone, I'd be one of the first to receive new Android updates, and that carriers would be the ones lagging behind. Yet it seems the exact opposite.
I'm currently running build LRX22C 5.0.1 on Cricket Wireless. Should I be expecting a new update any time soon, or are we required to manually flash it or something?

I received mine from Moto on Thursday of last week. Before putting in my VZW SIM, I connected to wifi and it updated me all the way to 5.1.1(in increments of course). I think in your case, your SIM(carrier) is what's limiting you from updating. Try pulling your SIM rebooting and check for updates. If that doesnt work, you can do a factory reset and leave your SIM out, connect to wifi then see if you get the updates. Since its a Nexus, you can always manually flash the latest.:good:

Thank you. I just shut down, pulled sim, turned back on and checked for updates. Not available unfortunately, still showing 5.0.1 to be the latest.
You mentioned you just got yours on Thursday - is Motorola just now starting to roll this update out or did you just happen to get yours Thursday for whatever reason?

I ordered the phone Sat night from Moto and received it last Thurs. I had been reading through the forums here and saw several mention about how to get the phone to update to the latest version so and soon as I opened the box, I turned the hotspot on from my other phone, connected the Nexus 6 to it via wifi and all the updates started downloading(5.01, 5.1, 5.1.1). I think the updates are controlled by Google then the carriers not Moto. Try suggestion #2 if you dont mind starting from scratch

all the updates get controlled by google, after carrier approval. but, google does not promise updates asap. they promise updates within 3 weeks. being a google play device, you'd get the no carrier update only on WiFi. and with it having the Verizon sim in it, it'll get an update after Verizon approves the update.

OK, I just factory reset my phone with SIM removed (I needed to unlock the bootloader anyway, which requires a wipe). The 5.1 update showed up, and I assume 5.1.1 will appear next. Thank you guys

I just went up to Best Buy and bought an unlocked N6 without service. Comes without a SIM by default. I ran straight up to a Game Stop and bought service through Cricket Wireless and got a SIM from them.
For the record, I'm not a fan of Best Buy but all online retailers I could buy it from had tax in my state, so I figured I might as well skip waiting on shipping and just buy locally.

O² Germany: EMUI Updates

Anyone knows when O² Germany is going to release the next firmware update?
The last update: EMUI 9.0.0.187 (01 January 2019)

i got mine a week ago from O2 and i am on Version 9.0.0.198 (1. February)

I'm not from Germany but I got same update 198 (Giffgaff on 02 network)
It's just security patch, we will not have any EMUI update with features for a while I Reckon, hope they are working on Android Q 10 ... First time I bought a Huawei phone but it looks like they are not the best manufacturers in terms of update and they are "locked" with modification so I'm not expecting anything crazy from them...

Software bug in Call Forwarding !
according to the tech dept of O² Germany that there is probably a bug in the software,
and that is why it is not possible to DISABLE it in Call Forwarding, when BUSY or UNREACHABLE.
is everyone else having the same issue with the set regardless the carrier?

As far as I know updates are pushed by Huawei. I don't see how or why the carrier should be involved. The only thing I have noticed is that after putting a Vodafone Sim in my device it automatically downloaded some Vodafone bloatware. But it does not affect the actual firmware or updates.
Back in the day the phones were locked and branded, had a Vodafone design preinstalled and the carrier name written on the back of the device. They therefore had a specially modified firmware which they were in charge of updating. But since all of that has disappeared there is no need for the carrier to get involved. Everybody wins, faster updates less effort.

Yes, that makes sense. Thank you for explaining.
Now, there were a couple of apps did actually automatically installed after I inserted/connected with the O² card.
One of them is still there "SIM-Toolkit", the other one I can't remember, I probably uninstalled it.
There was also a prompt for the SIM-PIN every time I restarted the device. I did manage to disable that.
And also, some O² Germany links (help/legal stuff) somewhere ... can't remember where too

A few days ago I read somewhere, that the carrier has an impact on the OTA. Somebody gave the advise to temporarily switch the SIM cards (from Telefonica o2 to Vodafone) and at the next boot he magically got a new OTA update. (Looks similar to windows 10's update channels) at least it's worth to try.

9.0.0.210
today I received the official update. version 9.0.0.210
anyone else with O² Germany?
Anyone knows what's new with this from .198 ? I don't see much !
3 major issues for me are still there:
* no separate sound levels for sms/notifications & ringtone
* no separate sound for SIM2's sms as its ringtone
* no changes in auto-brightness

Did you also get the update yesterday? Or does it work randomly regardless the carrier !?
What I meant is that Auto Brightness indeed "works",
but you cannot turn it off permanently, it turns itself ON again after a restart.
And about the separate sounds, I think you should check it again ...
Ringtone, SMS, Notifications = they all have the same joint level,
while the Media, Alarms, Calls = do have their separate levels !

Vog-l04 emui 10 official update?

Hi,
I am trying to find any information regarding an official update for Canadian p30 pro users seems like there's no official roadmap for the update release can't seem to find any anything online either? Does anyone know when we will get the update?

Whenever the big 3 decides when we will get the update. We are in the hands of our carriers now...

Huawei is always changing their release date.
Huawei is constantly changing their release date. First it said late November. Then in December. Everytime I call their hotline in Mexico. I can never get a definite answer. This is what I dislike about the company they are polite enough. But never give you a definite answer on these types of things

I'm with Koodo in Nova Scotia. Still nothing. It's still not the end of the world since the official stable Android 10 release was only four months ago in September; however, I am starting to get anxious. If we get the update in January I'll be a happy camper. February I'll be a content, but a little peeved. Anything past March and that's where my patience will come to an end. Carriers usually play with the update for 6-8 weeks before distributing the OTA, so it's probably going to be in February.

Ota update: C432 (e5r1p9).

Has anyone with version C432 (E5R1P9) already received any update via ota after version 9.1.0.328?

345 firmware with October security patch

Could you please send a screen print from within your software update application. Thank you.

Huawei rolls out software so badly and splintered its nauseating.
I'm literally sick of this phone.

Nope. Got 3 updates within a few days when changed my region from 782 to 432 after getting p'd off not getting updates. Only then for the 782 to suddenly catch up to all the others and I've had nothing for 3 months. Also on 328

I compare my Huawei life to natural disasters or famine, if truly is a piece of sh*t device and eco system, how the are Chinese people loving Huawei?
I can't fathom.

I haven't lol. To be fair the updates are purely security and yeah it's frustrating but the phones themselves are great. Never had a camera or battery like it on any other phone.

My OnePlus beat it consistently in regards to battery and performance but the camera wasn't anywhere near close..
By all accounts they've caught up in that department now..
The Mali GPU isn't very good at all tbh. Even the launcher lags when moving to the Google feed.

A miracle happened and I just received 9.1.0.345 and soon after 9.1.0.370. After months stuck in 9.1.0.328.

Aye same here pal. Wife just got 345 too

Still 5 months out of date. If there was more than security I'd be patching/rooting/forcing
