Well, Mines a may unit, and I bought it in June.. You'd probably get units as new as manufactured a month before you buy.. Not heard of any ill effects of the duo cam problem

T-Mobile and Unlocked version numbers

Hi all! I just want to ask users with T-Mobile and Unlocked variants of HTC 10 to let me know the latest software version and security patch.
So I went to htc's website and this is what I found:
1) Unlocked HTC 10 - 1.96.617.20
2) T-Mobile HTC 10 - 1.81.531.20
I think this info might be slightly outdated, please confirm.
Thanks!

Hmm...I purchased T-Mobile HTC 10 few days ago on eBay and just recently received it. After setting it up, I checked for update and there it was: Nov 01 security patch with software version: 1.81.531.30.

The problem was that when my phone was connected to WiFi, then many times I would just pick up the phone to browse the internet or launch an app that needs an internet, but it wouldn't work, although phone shows that WiFi is connected.
I wrote this in another post:
I spent 2 + hours trying find out why my phone has WiFi issues. Played with router settings, restarted the phone multiple times, used another phone to test on 2 devices and looks like Bluetooth could be an issue. So when Bluetooth is off, WiFi is working fine and loads pages, Play Store or any other apps that need internet. When Bluetooth is on, then WiFi isn't good and many apps spin the "refresh" icon for longer times. I launched Speed Test app and Bluetooth was on and the testing was weird, took longer time to detect ping and slower internet speed. While testing I turned off Bluetooth and got better results.

[Q] Samsung Upgrade Program UK for S9/S9+

Hello,
I am part of the Samsung Upgrade Program as of last year when I purchased the Galaxy S8/S8+ through it. However, those devices launched in April last year, and the S9/S9+ are now launching in essentially March. Does this mean we have to wait the additional month to be able to upgrade or will we be able to upgrade early so we will be able to get the device on the launch day of March 9th?
Thanks for your help,
Raheem

Good Morning,
I had the the S7 Edge +, and upgraded it too last year to the S8+, I received an email with a link to go to to process the upgrade.
I've just spoken to the Samsung, on the phone, and they say the emails should be coming out soon.

Thanks kjtaylor13, I was going to phone Samsung today as I was worried that I had missed the communication regarding the upgrade program.

Hi All,
I'm not the most patient of people when it comes to wanting new toys. So after my call to Samsung this morning I have:
1- Tweeted them asking how to upgrade
2- FB Messengered them, the same
3- Online Chat
Results So Far:
1-No Reply
2-No Reply
3-Call Sales team.
I would like a definitive answer as to when / how we can upgrade.
If I get anything I will of course post it here.
Cheers
Kevin

Me too I have been looking and can't find anything. Hope it's soon. Its my first time doing it do we have to send the chargers, headphones and those adapters back too?

I keep all the bits ready to send back in the original box. And try and keep my phone in tip top condition. But I think all they ask is that the phone is in good working condition, with minimal wear.
Had no problem with sending back my S7+

I had actually messaged via Facebook last night before I saw this thread, the response I got was that they have changes to the eligibility period for the upgrade program and the only way to find out when you can upgrade is by calling the sales team. Calling centre is a horrible experience, it's just the same repeated message, 'it will take more than 5 minutes to answer your call'... yes I know I've been waiting for over 15 mins...

I have spoken with Samsung and the financial company about the upgrade programme as like you say the S8 was released less than a year ago. Samsung didn't seem to know how the upgrade programme worked and asked me to contact the financial company who stated that we could only upgrade after 12 months of starting the agreement with them, which for me was April 17 even though I got my S8 from pre order last year??
I still haven't heard anything through their facebook messenger and I did contact them last night

***** HELP **** MATE 20 X EVR L29 Phone Locked and FDR Locked after EMUI 10 Update

Last Thursday, November 21st 2019, I made the biggest mistake of my life... I bought the MATE 20 X 3 months ago and all worked perfect with the EMUI 9.1. Thursday Evening I got the notification that the new EMUI 10 was ready to be installed, and I did it.
Now my phone it is unusable. When I start the phone I get a warning message telling me that I'm using a different version of the operating system. If I press the power button, I enter in eRecovery mode and any option I choose ends with error. I cannot do the Recovery over WIFI, I'm getting PACKAGE ERROR.
When I enter in FASTBOOTMODE, I got the ANDROID LOGO (GREEN ROBOT) and below 2 message Phone Locked, FDR Locked.
Can someone help me?
Thank you in advance.

Same issue
EVR-L29 C636 I'm guessing? I actually have the exact same issue. I believe according to the folks at the P30 forum as well as Huawei's website, 10.0.0.180 is NOT the final Android 10 update for the Mate 20 X. As a result, you are probably the third, or fourth at least, person with a bricked phone as a result of this update erroneously being pushed by Huawei.
You may attempt to contact them, but I don't think they can help if you're in the States. Mine has a Malaysia warranty (3 years nonetheless) and I haven't even bothered to contact because I have heard they are wholly unable to help.
PSA TO EVERYONE WITH AN EVR-L29 C636: DO NOT UPDATE TO ANDROID 10 UNTIL THE FINAL OTA IS RELEASED. It seems this OTA is bricking devices. I tried for about 10 hours using HiSuite and many different images for the EVR-L29 C636 as well as dload images and USB drives with no success. Once you flash 10, you CANNOT downgrade it seems, unless if someone on the forum has the august wisdom to provide a solution (which would be much appreciated).

C636 here upgraded with 10.0.0.180 + patch 1
No issue at all.

wondering if thats what the "patch 1" is for....

Thank you for the answer. I have contacted HUAWEI Support and as you said they are bouncing the ball around. Mine has a Chinese Warranty. I have open a ticket in most of the countries (United States, Canada, Mexico, China and Egypt) and I'm getting different answers from everyone.
The United States support said because the MATE 20 X was not released in US there is no warranty and there is no service center that can help. They have a service center in Texas called mobiltechglobal (I have tried to send an email also to them) but they didn't reply yet and I don't know if they will.
Now they have messed up to push the EMUI 10 and they should fix it.
I was trying to find a service center in Canada that will re-flash the ROM.
I found the DC-Unlocker tool, but the MATE 20 X is not listed as supported device. Have anyone tried this tool before? I will work?
I was thinking also to buy a NM SD Card and try the TWRP, but I don't know if this will work at this point.
I'm pissed because I have paid 700 USD for a phone I have used 3 months. Actually it is a great phone, I love the Camera, the built quality, the sound and the display.
Thanks

What Cust code is your device? Do you happen to have a screenshot of the build number prior to the update when it was on emui 9.1?
Do you happen to have a screen shot of what the update screen showed?
Was your device sealed new when you bought it and from where?

The version before the update was the EMUI 9.1 with the patches up to October 2019 (I don't remember the version). The device was in the box, sealed with the black tape on one side (DO NOT ACCEPT OF SEAL IS BROKEN). I have bought he phone on Amazon (NGP STore USA).

Was it a Chinese model? Ngp store primarily sell the Chinese model region Huawei devices. But also the c636 one.
@IAmTheDarkOne had the same issue with his c636 model I believe.
Also, @filip_pine did a discussion on here elaborating on what a factory sealed box looks like. The general consensus was those with security stickers on were opened before once.

judging from your post youre pointing towards the possibility of the shop selling modified AL00 models from china that were changed with a C636 cust, is that correct? this in turn potentially leading to a bricked device when a C636 EMUI10 update is pushed to an original AL00 device.

No, that's not what I was saying. I don't think they can change al00 to a full blown evr-l29. In any case NGP Store also sells global variant, most probably the c636 which op has.
NGP is legit, I bought a tablet from them a while ago, plus they sell their Amazon returns on Swappa.,which I've seen many listed there. He's too expensive for me though these days.lol

Correct it was the same problem. I'm hoping when we get some dload packages for 10.0.0.180 we should be able to unbrick it. My current understanding was that my dload attempts have failed because erecovery will not allow you to downgrade from 10 to 9.1 without using hisuite from within android so the hope is that once we can get our hands on a 10 dload package it should just be a matter of using either erecovery via wifi or dload method to recover.

Sorry bud. I have the exact same problem. I tried dc-phoenix but it fails to write to system so don't waste your money like I did. If your phone is locked which puts you in the same boat as me all you can do is wait for 10.0.0.180 to come out as a dload package then use otg to update

Sorry bud. I have the exact same problem. I tried dc-phoenix but it fails to write to system so don't waste your money like I did. If your phone is locked which puts you in the same boat as me all you can do is wait for 10.0.0.180 to come out as a dload package then use otg to update

Seems to be the case. Huawei hong kong told me the only way they'd warranty is if I send it to a relative in hong kong to deal with it lol. I don't got those. They won't even let me pay shipping both ways so this whole ordeal with huawei has left a very bad taste in my mouth. I was already choked about the removal of bootloader unlock codes. From what I've gotten here the only way to fix it will be to wait until they release the full 10.0.0.180 firmware and I don't have that kinda time.
I still get the last laugh though. I'm canadian. They didn't honor my warranty and we're holding their CFO lol

Thank you a lot, So I'm not alone... LOL... Now yestarday HUAWEI US replied to my email and they told me to open a service ticket with HUAWEI China. First I don't speak Chinese and also in Order to open a ticket you have to provide a Chinese address.
I also tried to contact a HUAWEI Service center in Italy and they told me that they will be able to fix it, but I have to send them the phone. I checked and the shipping cost are very high. So I'll be patient and I'll wait. End of the story, if I understood correctly, once the full 10.0.0.180 firmware will be released I should be able to use the eRecovery and the phone will be back as new? Thank you guys for your support.

Last Thursday, November 21st 2019, I made the biggest mistake of my life... I bought the MATE 20 X 3 months ago and all worked perfect with the EMUI 9.1. Thursday Evening I got the notification that the new EMUI 10 was ready to be installed, and I did it.
Now my phone it is unusable. When I start the phone I get a warning message telling me that I'm using a different version of the operating system. If I press the power button, I enter in eRecovery mode and any option I choose ends with error. I cannot do the Recovery over WIFI, I'm getting PACKAGE ERROR.
When I enter in FASTBOOTMODE, I got the ANDROID LOGO (GREEN ROBOT) and below 2 message Phone Locked, FDR Locked.
Can someone help me?
Thank you in advance.

I experienced similar issue. I installed a beta app on my Mate 20x but did not login using the Huawei ID. After few days, I received an update to build 10.0.0.180. I thought this is the stable update and installed it. Now my phone is soft bricked. I have my family pictures on the phone which are not backed up. My bootloader is locked. And I did not install any custom recovery or firmware. I did not use any external tools.
I tried recovery with hisuite and erecovery but every thing fails.
Are you guys sure that soft brick will resolve after they release it for phone's region. My Mate 20 X is from Singapore but I live in the UK. This is really bad of Huawei to push an OTA which bricks people's phone.

Curious to know how you know that. I have the Japanese model running SD1A.210817.037 and was thinking of sideloading but I don't know which one. Cheers

I updated to A1 and things seem to be working fine. But I would want to update to A5 since the current mobile network quality is terrible compared to my Oneplus 5T, same SIMs (Optus and Telstra). Interesting that we didn't have Aus specific update before. Do you think that the process of updating A1 to A5 would be the same as from 037 to A1? I am rooted and don't want to lose data.

Ah, this is interesting, I did a factory reset and updated using the A1 build yesterday, not knowing that there was going to be an A5 Australian version!
Interestingly, since updating to the A1 version, I've definitely experienced my Telstra 5G signal being noticeably worse than before updating
Looking forward to A5 now!

I just sideloaded the A5 build over A1 using the factory image (modified flash-all.bat to not wipe data and disable verity and verification) and rooted again the usual way. Went without issue.

Fantastic, I will try it this afternoon

You guys think all these region specific builds has something to do with 5g and not 4g?

Great, new to ADB and all things pixel coming from Note. So I have root (only after bricking and fixing lol) but wondering if you can point in the direction where I might get some detailed instructions to do what you did, I think I get it but not 100% sure and with my track record it would end in tears. TIA.
