Benefits of B322 over B309 - Huawei Ascend Mate 2

Dear HAM2 users, I am currently on b309 and would like to update to b322 but hate re-installing all apps again. Hence I am reluctant so far for that reason.
Is there big difference in performance between b309 and B322?
Will there be another update to b322 or this is it?
The fact that everyone hasn't received ota update gives me impression that this is not final yet.
Is it worth the effort to update now or should I wait a few more weeks.
Thanks.

Thanks for clarification.
Does that mean this is the final release and Huawei has completed the Lollypop official release?
I read somewhere there may be another update to this.

This is the final release. There could be an update later, or never.

If they've learned anything from the whole no-KK fiasco, they will still release updates in the future. If.

Amazing two letters can mean soooo much. Lol

Not sure why people continue to rag on Huawei. They released LP on the HAM. They did a bunch of updates and then released B322. It seems to be working pretty damn good. They may release updates as they see fit. Think we should be happy we got LP quite frankly on this device. Then again, some people are never happy.

Not releasing KK and then being late releasing LP was very likely not making people happy from what I gathered reading the HAM2 forum here.
I just my mega HAM2 a few days ago . Waiting for Huawei to sent me my bootloader unlock code ( I was not one of the people who received a response withing hours ) so I can root my LP upgraded phone and hopefully Xposed framework will be working on the HAM2 in the not too distant future.

Not unless you install CM. L with EMUI means no xposed. Rovos said that already.

Successfully updated to B322 using local sd card update. All apps and settings were intact. Hope it helps anyone wondering whether local update wipes everything out. Much easier if you follow local update.

Doubtful. The only reason they released L to start with was because SOOO many people raised hell about it. Basically killing any hope of selling a lot of people devices in the future. And anyone researching huawei would see that failure. Again this isn't a successful business practice. I highly doubt any more updates... Unless its a major security flaw. Having CM support boosted the chance people may buy huawei stuff again. But only slightly. There is obviously fanboys of huawei.. Just like Apple has its lemmings. For huawei though that isn't a significant number of users. One can only hope they Learnd a lesson this time. As Scoots said. IF... Time will tell.

LOL @Moody66...and there are the people who try their best to try and create as much fud and rhetoric as possible. We'll just see how popular Huawei is when they release the new Nexus and people who claimed they would never, ever use their products again and continue to post things like this, trip over themselves to buy one.

I decided not to participate this time. I've already flashed the ICS (672.180.33), rooted it and everything seems to work fine. However good luck to you testers. Let's hope the update will roll out before Christmas

Sure you can, but you need to rollback the factory firmware first (no root, no frozen apks, just factory default firware). At least that's how it was told in the survey you got the link to.

I think that it will be a serious issue for Motorola, since the majority of people who wanted to participate in the SOAK test a while ago, are using ICS already. And a large part of them have already sold their RAZRs to have ICS on another phone.

We recognize that many of our most astute and engaged owners also root and/or otherwise modify their software. While we are eager to get feedback from these owners, we find that we spend a disproportionate amount of precious soak time helping them through the update process

I lied
lol and read this
Additionally, if you do a factory data reset within 24 hours of the soak test start, you may remove your phone from our list. Because of that, we recommend that anyone who is rooted/altered restore to stock NOW. If you are on an unofficial Ice Cream Sandwich build do not attempt to downgrade your phone as it will likely cause it to be unusable. Generally you will have less than 24 hours of advanced warning of the start of the soak.

Oh, that's too bad... Anyway, I guess I will have to wait for a few more days (hopefully...)
At least guys already running ICS can send it's razr for a repair center if needed without worrying about the system running on it.

Another soak? Omg after the last one I decided to stick with Epsilon....
At least, can a soak tester tell us what is the version of the firmware?

Bad idea. Wait for a Dev to get it and build or add the changes in what we already have.
If its not bypassed then I'm sure its a prep for the L update. We all know that often there is an update before the next big os jump. But idk. We shall see. Maybe its an update long overdue anyway. Lol
Sent from rotary technology Phone
with the LS990ZV5 update, Your G3 OS is still Android 4.4.2. The update should bring some minor fixes and security patch. Like the G3 D855 model have recently receive update with some security patch!
By the way, Some one already got the Android 5.0 Update on LG G3 F400S Model
http://www.mylgphones.com/android-5-0-lollipop-software-update-for-lg-g3-f400s19c.html
and that security patch may very well break root.
If you have TWRP don't take the OTA.
If you're not rooted, but think you want to root, don't take the OTA until we find out if it's been patched to prevent current root methods.
If you are rooted with stock recovery, don't take the OTA until we find out if it breaks root.
I'm hoping it fixes the horrible auto brightness and occasional unresponsive screen. Other than that couldn't be happier.

Lameooo... I first found out about the Sprint LS990ZV5 update on November 6. It is now the 19... almost two weeks... Sprint Reps tell me they haven't heard of it... REALLY?
I have a possibly awesome phone without a working compass... that sucks! Of course, the update may NOT even have a compass fix. Who knows?!
Scratch ZV5, say hello to ZV6!
ZV5 isn't coming our way but ZV6 RDF is out and source has dropped.
I give it 24-48 hours before it is announced. Maybe sooner before someone finds the file and posts it.
Now, the million dollar question... does it break root?

Agreed this 509 firmware is stagefright patched and was built like 5 weeks ago and its 5.0.2 I think this is all were getting and since the Z4v is no longer coming out I belive 5.0.2 is the end of the road for the Z3v. This 509 firmware is good though.
I can understand your frustration, but I wouldn't take it for 100% that Sony is intentionally excluding the Z3V... They will probably send the marshmallow firmware to Verizon, and because of that, we'll probably never receive it unless we get a lucky leak, but I doubt that because I don't think it'll even be a candidate for Internal Testing as I'm sure Verizon plans to push Lollipop, fulfill their year old promises, and be done with their EOL device.. so even if Sony does send them the firmware, Verizon is most likely going to sit on it until it's buried... But you have to think with articles like these, even if they are press statements from Sony, it's still likely that they could leave out the Z3V unintentionally because even though its a variant of the Z3, by saying the Z3 is getting the update, they could be collectively including the Z3V along with that... but either way, I agree that we'll most likely never get this update, and that sucks.... But I do think Verizon is going to give us the latest Lollipop for sure.... There's no reason not to jump it to 5.1.1 if Sony gave them the firmware, it's not a major update... I think they just wanted a solid Lollipop build in "testing" (an intentional leak out there to collect usage stats from people bold enough to flash it) with stagefright patches, etc to make sure they had a solid build before putting the finishing touches on the firmware. There is a different Kernel in the .509 version than the .485, as well as some other interesting differences that make me think they're gearing it for the latest Lolllipop... and really as long as we get that with working VOLTE.... I can be happy enough with that.

the thought did cross my mind that they would update 509 the rest of the way to 5.1.1 now that stagefright patch is out for z3 5.1.1 because it may be bad for business to have us on firmware we shouldn't have. I don't even care really Verizon made me sick with this shiit I guess I have to get a nexus phone next but I'm not doing that till they firgure out how to but an SD card in a phone. And thank you for your work and getting the ball rolling on Lollipop.

you know are phones should be pretty close to being able to be unlocked by Verizon I was looking on eBay and there are unlocked Z3V's I dont know if they kept the drm keys but anyway once they release the final version..and we get our bootloader unlocked then we can go crazy.

I think they mean carrier unlocked, which all vzw phones are now, since like the Galaxy S4. Boot loader and carrier unlock are two completely different things.

I wasn't trying to be rude either I have had this phone for almost a year since it first came out and have received no support for this phone at all I have spent literally hundreds of hours trying to fix this phone myself because verzions incompetence I'm not sure for the reason for the leak or how it happened but I doubt very much we will receive 6.0 and I don't really give a **** I would just like them to realease a Lollipop version so I can have a feature I was promised a year ago -advanced calling. Also quick charge 2.0 is a listed feature- it's not. Verizon = Liars. Look at the Z4v that's a disaster to.

I am pretty tough skinned, it takes more than what you said to be considered "rude" to me.
I agree B.S. what VZW has done with the Advanced Calling 1.0, I am tired of getting the stepchild phones and VZW keeping us from getting the next OS release due to heavy-handed control. I mean Z3 getting a beta test for Marshmallow, seriously? Maybe the guy who got the leak can get Marshmallow leak, but I would like to have the latest OS if possible and I am sure others will agree.
An AOSP with a unlocked bootloader, I miss those days.
Is this bogus?
Hi I'm new to xda developers forum. Is this site BS that claims to offer a 6.0 rom for Z3v?
Since I'm new, I'm not allowed to share the link but it's from

If it was real we would have heard about it. If it is still wait until it shows up here on XDA.

It is fake
Man it was so great to have the Droid when it first came out. ROM competition was tremendous and you could lead anything you wanted; if you could dream it, someone was already working on it.
I have 4 of those beauts!

I have a similar experience. My last phone was a Galaxy Nexus, it was an embarrassment of riches as far as being able to modify it. Different ROMs everywhere you looked, modified kernels, etc... Thanks to baldwinguy77 I was running KitKat 3 days after Google introduced it, even before any manufacturers had released phones with it.
The Xperia's lack of popularity with the general public is probably the cause of it's noticeable lack of developer interest. Few devs have one so few work on it.
I really like the phone, it's battery life is second to none. I may have to be satisfied running Lollipop but at least it is rooted so there's that.

BKL-L09- Will we ever get the updates?

[email protected]_USA
Respected sir,
We Indian Honor 10 View users have a question to you, "Are we going to get updates for our phones or not?"
And personally saying, it's the first time I'm using Honor device and I'm quite happy with its performance.
I've used a lot of devices and have been active on many of the forums contributing to their respective development programmes.
But here, I'm kinda pissed seeing the threads that are only for the BKL-L04!
AREN'T WE BKL-L09 USERS HAVING THE SAME SPECS AS THEM?
We need an answer to this since you're their representative.
It's a humble request sir, we too want to see stable ROMS on this Indian variant!
PS : this isn't personal frustration or some kind of offence posting this thing! I'm just curious, that's all it is.
Do not take this personal and as a request instead.
Thanks,
Kaustubh

Yes only Huawei phone, no Honor in there
Sent from my HUAWEI BKL-L09 using XDA Labs
I am unsure of what could be the reason of releasing such a premium device at the tag of 'flagship killer' if they're not even gonna release updates for us.

We're going to get some updates such as gpu turbo and emui 8.1 for the BKL-L09 but we have to wait. September for the turbo and a little more for android upgrade

At this rate we will get Android P update next June. Or we won't.

I can understand fully why you would be frustrated. Unfortunately, I don't have info regarding update timelines for various regions. I only have info about the US.
You can maybe reach out on Twitter if you haven't already.
Already done that, no reply so far and furthermore I don't know who is the representative for Honor India.
Anyways, thanks for your reply sir.
It appears we won't get the GPU turbo update after all.

Oreo Beta Testing starting back up!

What's up!
Yup you heard right it's starting back up and if you're a beta tester previously for the Axon 7 Oreo builds you should be getting contacted soon.
Peace!
Kudos to ZTE for continuing this after that long stretch of downtime. Looks like they're doing right by us; I really appreciate this.
Right now it seems to be only for the US tho. Saw a post on reddit where someone got an email for US beta testing.
Sadly ztemobile.de is still redirecting to the chinese site. I really hope the site comes back. Or that at least the G model gets back on track too to receive oreo.

I do hope they will be able to complete the European version too. I guess most things they add should work between versions right away?
Something just pop on my A2017 device.
Downloading now.
Don't know Chinese so can't tell what new.

That's just Android 8 with Mifavor5.2 for Chinese users. Nothing new here since you have the Chinese version phone.
Yes. It's official. I'm not a beta tester.

I also check for the German page to come back online. If we do get Oreo for the G it will most likely come from there. I'm hoping that page is down because there will be some changes to it

Are you kidding? ?
I'm guessing (maybe hoping) that that screenshot is unrelated. Surely they can't be releasing only a V8 update and not v8.1.
Seems like ZTE could so with some cross region collaboration with releasing updates. It's a bad practice not to make updates world wide.
I know there may be small differences, especially with modems but still..

I'm sure that patch was left somewhere in the update servers and since they're back online now, people received it.
I'ts not new per se because it's from March, so clearly they didn't release new stuff yet (also don't know if they started to work on the update or not). However, I have my doubts about 8.1... hopefully it's 8.1 and not 8.0., but we will see.

You probably right.
I received an email from ZTE a few days ago that read new Oreo build ready for testing. Has a survey for you to fill out. I contacted the person and was told , build is wrapping up inner testing and will be pushed to beta testers soon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The build is the last before final release.
Hi,
How to enroll for beta testing?
