Huawei Mate 10 - August 31, 2018 no GPU TURBO UPDATE

Hello! It's currently 31st of August, 2018 in my timezone here in the Philippines, and yet no GPU Turbo update as announced by Huawei.... did anyone got the update in their phone/s already? I received the night / low light update around 1st week of August, but no significant improvement...

Yeah I haven't received a update the whole month!!!! I'm on ALP- L29 8.0.0. 138 (c605)

In some countries, the GPU Turbo update is already in deployment. Just wait and stop complaining.

I got the update few days ago. I have Mate 10 Pro and I live in UAE

you don't complain if in the first place they didn't set an expectation within the month of August? better not promise and over deliver

Hopefully, we will get ours too... hahaha can't wait to see the changes :good:

Virtually two games are supported by the GPU turbo. I have not noticed any changes since updating. BLA-L09.

September 3

Me too. Not really a big deal update for me.
Im more interested in getting camera updates and updated camera ui like
the P20 Pro series.

Hmm ending the 1st week of September without update..

I got the update on my ALP-AL00 8.1.0.326(C00) a week ago. But apparently, it breaks Magisk and you won't be able to root.

I' m definitely with you on this, hopefully they all bundle together with the next update

For anyone that owns a US BLA-A09 etc. I emailed a US Huawei support member regarding GPU turbo for the U.S. they responded me with a "I can't confirm or deny your country will be receiving this update" comment. It was really sad with how shady they are being. My money is on no GPU turbo for the U.S.

most of the updates are delayed most of the time because the huawei approvals for installation process, I've just got the update today morning a few minutes ago actually, im just waiting to make some testing w/o it and see the phone performance to see if there is a real improvement, update its just 340 mb so it seems like no much added besides the GPU Update

My Mate 10's version is ALP-L09, but it still did not get GPU turbo... Anyone using ALP-L09 Version? Did you get it? I also did not get face unlock yet.. :/

I've got the Mate 10 ALP-L29, still no GPU turbo update, and on July security patches, even though FF says that it's approved for my device, no update can be found using the phone app, or even HiSuite.

Security Update

Has anyone gotten even so much as a security update in recent months? I haven't had an update since March and I'm still on the February security patch. Seems like other flagship phones are at least getting security updates and at least every other month if not even every month for some phones; yet it's been four months for Razer with nothing.

Yep that's the state of things. RP1 hasn't had anything in over a year. It got one major update and nothing since. I'm figuring that's what's going to happen with the RP2. As much as I like these two phones I believe they have been my biggest mobile mistake. Hate the fact that I'm still paying for RP2 through att.
Sent from my Razer Phone 2 using XDA Labs

I occasionally comment on Min-Liang Tan's unrelated posts about this very issue

Pretty sure they've abandoned it, because they did the exact same thing with the RP1 - release a few minor updates, then one major one, and then it just stopped. I've asked support, but they said that they have no plans on releasing any security updates - I guess they don't care about security at all?

I know they've abandoned their phone production, cancelling the Razer Phone 3 and sending some of their techs to other divisions while firing the rest. Who knows if they'll have a few guys on to keep up with updates and security patches... ??*

Razer could have bucked the expectations by providing maybe even 18 months of support for this phone.
If they've chosen not to, they've just validated all the naysayers who warned us not to put our trust in Razer.
I'm still really liking the phone, but... March 2019 security patch isn't looking too good at this point.

Hers is the response I got from them on the subject of the missing security patches for my 1000$ paperweight. this is after pointing them to the google webpage for the monthly patches that they could not seem to find or were aware of.

Thank you for your humble reply.
I really appreciate that you have provide us the details which we required to investigate further on your inquiry. Thank you once again Thomas.
I have studied on the link which you have provide to us and brought for you the best answer. From the link, i have learned that the Update 9.0 Pie security patch for Razer phone 2 will be last update on February 5, 2019.
Android Pie has optimized the application startup and DEX memory usage. It’s not very easy to measure, but Razer claims about an 11% reduction of rewriting DEX files, which by itself will make the overall system perform better and makes the users feel more comfortable. Our engineer team is working hard together with Google to come out with new update as soon as possible.
For your kind information, Android device and chip set manufacturers may also publish security vulnerability details specific to their products such as Google, Huawei, LG, Motorola, Nokia and Samsung at the moment.
I hope you have understand on my explanation. Feel free to contact us back.
Thank you and have a nice day ahead!
Sincerely,
Ken
Razer Technical Support
===============================================

They build a phone, take premium money from you, but aftersale support, they just don't know. They are clueless.

only hope is that they upgrade it to android Q and enable mainline so the security updates are less of a problem...

device is now end of life :(

Just seen that the p20 will no longer be receiving monthly security updates, this means the device is officially now end of life.
I mean I haven't had a security update since December on o2uk but still. Sad to hear.

Very true.
I've never had a security update less than about every 3 months anyway in the 18 months I've had the phone.
This will be the last Huawei phone for me, pity as overall I've loved it.
o2uk.

This is the best phone iv had hands down, if you can get a decent deal on a p30 pro go for it, I upgraded to a Samsung S20 and the p20 pro still blows it out the water.

I already got march software update

Still on December update too on EE.
Heading back to Apple after this phone. May cost more to buy but at least you get updates after 2 years.

I'm at March security update, will soon get updated to EMUI 10.
The problem is with your carrier, I guess.

All UK device's seem to be the same. The 10.0 update will be the last world wide in terms of security updates. There will be patches but no security

I got the software and security update today.

They've updated many older phones this summer. This is most likely the last update for us. Unless, maybe they will try to give us a chance to go the Harmony os way at some point

Well, i'm a Huawei P20 Pro User that uses Ressurection Remix 8.7.0 with June 5th Security Patch Update, i left EMUI Months ago.
I Own the P20 Pro for almost Two Years, and well i saw the P20 Pro allready as a Dead Device since EMUI 9.1 and waited Months for EMUI 10.0 OTA that had Still Old Security Patch Updates when i had Pushed it to Update via. HiSuiteProxy because i not got any OTA over Months.
Then some View Months Back you can Unlock the Bootloader again, Downgraded to EMUI 9.0.0.195 and i Upgraded to LineageOS 16.0 and Got February 2021 Security Patches, compared to EMUI 10 it is a 3 Months Newer Security Patch.. and you can Add the Huawei Camera to it!
Then in the End because Months Passed i tried GSI Rom's and did go a Step further.
LineageOS 17.1 GSI and Ressurection Remix 8.7.0 GSI (AB or BvN) and both of them Work fine. Only Android 10 GSI's work, 11 breaks MTP.
The Only thing you loose if you use a Android 10 GSI is the Huawei Camera, but maybe an Alternative Camera? I think the Best is to Keep the Device Safe is ether Switch to GSI what Improves Device Speed alot or wait for HarmonyOS what i will not.

If you guys don't know, Huawei P20 series is getting harmony os beta (better than nothing) in china, not sure if it will roll out globally. Not completely EOL though, but it might be a little bit hard to use in the global area.

190 update comes with April 2021 security patch, btw, for whom may be concerned. Phone works flawlessly, so no updates is quite fine for me

Question Did anyone get no update at all

A bit worried that all regions get an update or even more than one, and I am sitting here waiting...
S21 ultra exynos, Mena region
Am I alone?

I'm with you as well. UK, Three network and no update since AUAC just after I received the phone.

Nothing for me here in Australia yet

Same here on my US Unlocked version. I ended up just downloading the firmware manually and updated in odin without wiping.

Same, still on AUAC version, Jan security patch. There were two updates since I got the phone in the first few days of Feb.
I'm in New Zealand.
Samsung seems to do a very slow staged approach which I guess is so they catch issues before they affect too many people. But it is a bit frustrating when you really want to see the camera improvements...

I didn't even get the updates you mentioned.

Guys, be aware of the fact that it takes Samsung a few weeks (up to month) to push out each update to every supported CSC. I literally just got my update (that released on 2/11/21) about five minutes ago, lol - and that's in North America.
So don't expect to get each update with this device as soon as it launches in one specific region. You just have to wait a little longer with Samsung devices (or, you can do it manually if your update is already publicly available online).
But with all of that said, this update is only around 350mb and is listed to only contain the February 1st security update and another camera performance increase update. So no worries, people! (and someone can make a pinned post with some of this general information if they want to. This is our community development forum, and so I want people to know what's going on out there).

Not so much that, but carrier versions need carrier approval.

T-mobile US I had to search for the update but just installed it.

How? Same carrier and I've got nothing

Sadly there is NO CLEAR thread that explains in SIMPLE terms, for what exact model, what firmware version need to be installed in order to avoid data wipe.
Example XXUC = you can install only XCI, XCP, and XCR version safely without wipe.
Version IUYC = you can install only xxx, xxxx, and xxx version safely without wipe.
Every thread that i have read, looks confusing, does not state what can cause brick, what to keep an eye on, nothing!

Question Android 12 in North America / USA?

Hi everyone, the day is Jan. 17th at the time of this writing and my Zenfone 8 still has not received an update prompt for Android 12.
Before anyone tells me to just manually download 12, I want to know if this is just happening to me or if Asus is holding the update. In addition, I wouldn't want to download the general Android 12 update if a US-specific release is on the way.
Has anyone in the United States – or North America in general – received the OTA update yet?

I am not in the US but afaik no OTA was released in Europe (and the rest of the world?) either. Yet - curiously - A12 is final since v73 and had already received an update to v81. Both these versions (and the older v68) work very well for me - but I did do a full reset after installing v68.
I generally dislike A12 (some poor design choices), but on the Z8 it works much better for me than A11. Battery life is definitely improved substantially.

Great to know your battery has improved. By far my biggest gripe with my ZP8. As far as the design choices go, what are some of the things you dislike about A12? I was hoping the design would be an improvement over 11.

Bar icons and notifications design. Awful. Read a generic A12 review to get acquainted.

February 9th and STILL no OTA update from Asus! I heard they were slow with rolling out updates, but c'mon—I'm getting old here!

Feb 19th and I still didn't receive Android 12 ?!

Slow?! They showered us with updates until A12.
And even with A12, they quickly put out of updates. The latest version is, in fact, an update (without a new security patch) of the first official version released in the final days of December.

They said on Zentalk that they stopped the A12 rollout temporarly to fix a bunch of bugs and crashes. They also said they might provide a last A11 patch as I think A12 soft bricked some devices. I am currently on A12 and I don't have any issues besides the usual glitch here and there.
