OTA for A2017G (B08) - ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hey everyone,
just got a notification that I have an OTA available.
It is the B08 with a size of ~270MB
I was not able to get a Screenshot of the Changelog since my Phone installed the Update automatically.

FKING FINALLY!! some love for european customers!

Thanks you for news.
Mine didn't get the update yet. I'm on B06. Maybe I will wait for a few hours.
What is your earlier firmware number before update?

I was before on B05. Did not update to B06 since I thought I could wait for the B08 Update.
Android Security Patch is now December 2016
Android Version 6.0.1

Any translation for the changelog ? Also could you pull the OTA link after you get the update notification ? ( from adb input: adb logcat and search for a http link) Thanks.
later edit: using google translate i got this: lockscreen dynamic background, lockscreen notifications, bugfixes, camera fix during night, translations, performance and stability improvements, latest google patch.

Here it is in english.

Can someone upload the update B08 on Mega or some other cloud service? tnx.

Someone has an idea how to Change the lockscreen pics to my own?

Go to the setting in the settings menu (mi-lock or something like that) , there is an option to change the pictures to a collection of you own. Pretty sweet!

Did you have the G model too? Can't find any option like that. There's only "ZTE locker" and no option to change the wallpaper. I can add some of my own but the stock seems to be there.

Yep just received notification on my device.
Finally after so so long time waiting!!

Yes g model. It doesn't seem to work for me either, I added some of my own photos but the ZTE stuff still appears. Maybe it goes through the ZTE photos first and after that it goes through ours?

Just being installed.
Finally we've got dynamic lock screen.

Is the lockscreen bell gone ? Is the sound volume increased ?

Yeah seems like that. You can find your own pics if you swipe through it. But no way to only our picture

I am in France and on B06 - no B08 notification / OTA yet.
I hope it fixes the accessibility setting bug that got introduced in B06... it looks like the dynamic wallpaper issue has been addressed.

The bell is still there, but it is toggled on by default. So the notifications show, but you can still hide them. It is still weird though. Everytime I try to expand them, they snap instantly back together. So I can't click any reply buttons or stuff like that.

What about reception? It's improved?

Just got the FOTA B08 update on my phone in UK.

Font-Color in Notification Center

Hi,
i'm very happy with my new Honor 7 except one small issue.
I get notifications for new emails from Gmail-App. But the subject in the notifications are barely readable. (see attachement)
Different themes had no effect on readability.
Do i have to wait for root and change the color manually oder is there another possibility to change the fontcolor?
Thank you!
For now you could try putting a light/white coloured wallpaper. I don't know if this can be fixed in update or if its the colour google has chosen for gmail
did you factory reset and see if it work fine, whey you received 1st time was it working ok?
phone was out of the box, and right after installing gmail it showed this issue.
why is gmail showing two different notifications? first it shows the gmail notification with 3 emails and afterwards there are 3 notifications repeated as single mails?

Hi, yes i have this issue as well. It's not just the colour is the fact that the font is tiny as well!
I use the Google launcher and the control bar at the bottom isn't transparent either but that's just tough, huawei interoperability issues.

Same on my P8Lite...
I contacted Huawei support via HiCare and they said they cannot reproduce that.
Factory reset and un-/reinstall gmail app doesn´t help either.
Support guy told me to wait for the coming android 5.1.1 update with EMUI 3.1 that maybe fix it.

It's a known issue within Huawei and they are working on a fix. Several people in the UK reported it directly to Honor UK and it has been replicated by Honor themselves.

Sounds like a reseller ROM, that's how mine came. Are the app icons on the homescreen rather small?
Security patch is July, so I think it's fake

I have it also coz I just buy it from China website. The version stated 5.9.016s. the icon is very small. Dolby Atmos option is only on and off. No update ota. But no bloatware no live app . Theme setting always crash. It quite stable. But I choose to update with .017s instead for better visual icon scale

I read somewhere that changing the country makes the theme settings good. I think you need to set it on Chinese.
I also have EUI 5.9.016s. Just wondering if it just available to new device for now?
I also got this device today and noticed that it has that 5.9 version as well.
I found it strange because the official is only 5.8 so I am going to wipe it and install the official rom.

Miui- closed

Thanks all user's for their help and understanding.
Because of personal sirius healthy and other personal reasons this thread is closing now.
I hope to understand.
I will ask to moderators to delete thread.
Have a great holidays.
Nice to see you here
Guys, beware, @CrisBalGreece is one hell of a good chef.
What's your next project?
Finally someone ported a not half-chineese version.
Flashing now , will report if any bugs on X822 4/32
Thanks alot, what a perfect rom.
Also, I found another MIUI8 rom in some chinese forum, which has some of the settings in the Stock rom ( CDLA sound effect, etc.)
But it somehow has too many ads
I'll try tomorrow but for now, it seems nice
Thanks for this rom!

Just check No 13 on installation guide. If not maybe your carrier is not supporting this rom. Go on your carrier web site and check the apn settings for your mobile. [emoji6]
can you write which languages has this ROM, in other way we will have here many question about it like my now - is there polish?
PS
great work, thx
ROM is looking good. No big issues so far. But I have this small problem i am unable to mute incoming calls using volume buttons. Is there anyway to fix this small issue.

I can't write right now the languages because I don't have my pc to check in framework for the supported languages. But is very simple to check.. Just download from play Store the Morelangs apk and find your Language to apply it. Yes it has Polish just check.

Go to dialer and press for some time the down left virtual button to get in settings. Then go to call settings and check the upper right tab for mute calls by moving the phone or just turned the up down. Miui doesn't have mute with volume keys but with sensor.

If you mean the 2 small Chinese letters on upper left corner, yes with xposed modules just try to find the status bar modification module. I think is to small for bothering our eyes. Unfortunately is from Official Global Developer rom (miui CN).

Navigation Gestures

Today I installed the app "Navigation Gestures" by XDA and it looks really beautiful on the phone.
I also used the app "Blank Icons" to create a blank space in the lower part of the home screen, so that I had nothing under the navigation pill. (See attached screenshot)
I think the app is worth a try!
EDIT: the navigation buttons disappear if you are on one of the stock themes; with other themes they remain visible underneath the bar.

UPDATE: with new beta version (1732) is possible to have gestures without the pill (OnePlus 6 style).
(To receive beta versions enter the telegram group linked in the related XDA article!)
Native gesture navigation works on Pie
Guys it has been achieved through ADB
https://forum.xda-developers.com/cr...apps/pie-xperia-10-10-plus-launcher-t3905699/
But you have to use the XPERIA 10 launcher port or else the stock launcher will crash if you try going to recents menu.

Hi, I'm using the navigation gestures app with the oneplus preset on my stock sony Z5, but I'm facing an issue with the stock home launcher. I have an empty space between the dock and the bottom end of the screen (exactly where the navigation bar was). I tried all the compatibility and advanced settings in the app but makes no difference. How do you solve the issue?
p.s. no problem with other launchers.
Thank you

Hi! Actually I quit using xda's Navigation Gestures, and I'm currently on Fluid Navigation Gestures beta - thath I find more customizable.
With that said, I didn't have that problem with the first releases of the app (although I had a large space between the first row on the home screen and the dock, as you can see in the image in my previous post; that's present also in Fluid N. G.).
Try installing and old version of the app (they shold be still available on the Telegram group) and see how it works, maybe it's a bug introduced with latest releases and you can report it to the developers!
(Sorry if I couldn't be very helpful)

Hi, no worries and thank you anyway. Yesterday I installed a newer version of Xperia home (posted by someone here on xda) and it solved the issue.
I also gave a try to fluid navigation and it's properly good. I'll stay with it for a while to see if works better.
Thanks again for your feedback.
Hello everyone
I want to share simple trick, unfortunately requires root...
I love navigation gestures app it is so customizable!
Here are my setting which I liked most:
-Home like in Samsung gestures down swipe
-Recent app down, centered, hold
-Back right side of screen swipe
-Split screen down, left and swipe hold
-last app down, right and swipe hold
Ta-dah! now you have improved android 10 gestures (you decide if you wish have visible pill or not)
As you can see I have whole screen to use
What I have done is reachable in two ways:
-Install app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.conena.navigation.bar.remover
-Manual build.prop edition. Search line in build.prop located or vendor partition and edit it from
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
to
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
Reboot
I'm not responsible if you corrupt your device, I'm just sharing what I did...
On xz1c with lineageos16 I used app
On XZ1 with lineageos16 I edited manuallymanuall if I'm wrong just correct me... I'm only a human
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Have fun!
Edit: I flashed Sony apps enabler and installed apkmirror or play store Sony apps including home music album
Other advantage for editing qemu.hw.mainkeys is you got one more column on statusbar!
