You need to unroot.
No it will not erase your data.
Stock recovery is needed if you are updating via FOTA.
Also make sure your system is not modified.
No need to relock your bootloader.

My recents is broken after this latest update. Is it just me or are others facing similar issues?

Is camera 2 API enabled?
If not can we enable it?

Yeah i think it does not change if u had already enabled it before the update. I used my Gcam after update, works as earlier. i guess no need to re enable it.

Yes true !

Noticed slight improvement in battery backup, previously it used to give 1hr of SOT/10% of battery but now it has improved to 1hr20mins/10% of battery!
I feel some improvements in dt2w are done,reducing standby drain

I noticed it too , I am getting more screen on time I think notch area still isn't handled properly

improvement in notch here means no more chopped battery percentage, but still no real full screen when playing movies or youtube.

Yes noticed that but they could have actually did some job as they did with pie beta where they removed all bugs associated with it

The Pie is almost ready

Can you be spefiic about this? Please don't say delayed Pie rollout is misguiding. Maybe it would be better for them not to annouce an expcted date for updates but then people would still keep asking.
I have had my phone for 2 weeks and I am very happy with it. It does everything I need from a phone and is a decent upgrade from my K8 Note. I am happy to have the Feb security patch in reasonable time.
I had a problem with the DND icon not being removed after turning off DND but that seems to be fixed in this update. I use System UI Tuner to remove mobile data icons so I have more space in the status bar for notifications.

Hey See when you know you can't roll out update soon just don't promise it? I am not asking them to roll it out soon am asking them to be honest ! Because that's what makes company credible . I bought this phone with a hope that am getting pie which I wanted to explore but then from January it's been March but still we haven't got Pie . If Asus knew it can't roll out update that soon it probably shouldn't have started promising that ( and that would have cause them to lose customer) . Its not about you being happy with your phone it's about if you lied your words lose credibility!!!

Fair enough! I really wanted to flash this though. I even tried but it said its not compatible with my build number of something. I am on B132 right now. I guess waiting would be the only thing I should be doing for now. It's been so many days already. I am so curious to try out Nougat on my 6X. And it sucks cause before this I had a Moto G4 Plus with Nougat. I feel downgraded with Marshmallow on this!
The EMUI admin in facebook told me that the updates are being pushed gradually and stuffs. But then, why is it taking so damn long to receive it? I check updater every single morning after waking up but no luck so far. Kinda sick of this now!
Hope to get the official ota asap!
Thanks buddy!

I have seen the app and I know what it does. But I am really scared to use it after reading a lot of unfavorable reviews of people who used that to update. The B320 is available in it. Is it worth a try? The volte is safe in all these releases and thats quite a relief for me. Can i download it from there? Rohit says it works for him without any bugs. I am confused!

I just made a backup of everything that my phone had. I think I should try it. Can you tell me a short n quick method on how to update through FF? I could see the download option once I select the desired release and then it shows 2 files. Update and Update_data! Am I supposed to download both of them together or flash one by one? And whats up with the proxy? Would appreciate if you could guide me in this bro!

Hi Rohit. I have updated from 310 to 320 but only security patch has been changed and the build remains 310. Any idea what am I missing??

I just flashed the 320 via firmware finder and omg, it worked!!! The entire thing was done in like 1 hour. The security patch shows june 5th 2017 and i can see a lot of new features already. App twin seems cool and i am shocked to see the updater file too cause a lot of people complained about its disappearance after flashing. Its super stable and all the functions are working just fine. No data lost and smooth like anything!
The only drawback i found was not able to directly unlock to the homescreen via fingerprint due to Nougat's restrictions. So as of now, I have enabled the floating dock just for that lock screen button cause if u lock it from there, the fingerprint unlock works!
My 6X is so damn better now. I can also see a huge different in the battery as well as app opening performance. Loving the EMUI 5!
Thanks for that quick inspiration Gopi. Like you said, you never know until you try! I tried, and now I am surprised to see that the outcome was worth the risk.
Thanks Rohit. You told me about FF earlier too. Now I am more honored to have the Honor 6X!
Its good, Welcome to the EMUI 5.0 community: good::laugh::laugh: :; For further quarries we Are here to help You..!!! ENJOY !!

Thanks!

Hello all, I guess i'm pretty late to the party. I'm from Bangladesh, and I'm looking for a DIY method to change my chinese x7 rom. Can anyone help??

Yea i already read that. He have all the access. He can do. What i mean is we can't directly do this without unlocking bootloader. But he can via remot acces. He will charge 5dollars for one conversion. Pretty decent. I also waiting for my 8.1 to unlock the bootloader and flash China Rom

Why would you flash CN rom? Doesn't android one better? I had X7 6gb ram, let say i successfully convert to android one ver (8.1), 8.1 have 4gb ram would it matter? I mean the system will confused? Or it is automatically adjust? Or maybe going to brick?

Actually i am an old user of Nokia 7+. After unlocked bootloader in 7+ i just flashed CN rom and i really like it. Some of the features seems pretty good for me like Face Unlock, long screenshot, Screen record, Double tap to sleep, Navigation bar key adjustment, call recording, etc etc. Also i feel the UI is slightly polished and looks good. After selling 7+ i bought 8.1. But need some above mentioned features. Thats why i am waiting for 8.1 bootloader unlock.. Stock is good and fast. Smooth enough. But just want to try CN rom too..
Well, Android One is good too. U can convert to 8.1. Ram does not matter. It won't brick.
Hey ! I found this X7 with Global firmware.https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NOK...7.html?spm=2114.search0104.0.0.10ab6000CidjVh
Does this global firmware means gonna be stuck on Android 8.1 and no more updates ?
I had my X7 converted into a global 8.1 running Android One using Techmesto for $10.
https://shop.techmesto.com/product/convert-nokia-x7-to-global-variant-nokia-8-1-with-android-one/
Was a pretty easy process, ordered, got a email about it to organize a time when they can do it.
The process was simple, just to install TeamViewer on a PC (with LAN port, it needs a LAN port to connect to the internet not WiFi for some reason).
They connected to it, has me connect the phone and enable USB Debugging, and they did the rest remotely.
The guy then logged in, got to work and in about 30 minutes it booted up, saw Android One and immediately got my Jan security update. I can recommend their services, very happy with it now!

I'll def update as soon as I get the February update.
Sorry for the horrible quality, had to use my laptop camera.
https://imgur.com/a/VwDhW0d
I haven't come across any issues with running Android One. The NFC doesn't work but that's expected as the X7 doesn't have NFC.
I also can't record calls anymore, which was super easy with the China ROM. Apparently Google cracked down on call recording apps in Android Pie.
But everything seems fine, seems to work as they should. The camera , voice, dual sims, hotspot all worked soo far.

Try factory resetting it as I guess its only you who is facing it.

AI scene detection is automatic buddy. You dont get to turn it on or off. So basically if you point your camera at cats, it detects it(and shows in upper right hand corner), same is for food, dogs, scenes, portraits, etc
Guys I have rooted my phone and installed TWRP...

Maybe the recovery is at fault here... I am using PBRP official recovery
Maybe if I flash the stock recovery first, it will update ?
Can you or anyone else post a link to the original stock recovery ??

Sad thing is that it is not resolved even after Factory Reset.
So we have to wait for the next update with this terrible looking Status Bar!

Anybody else having battery issue after this update
Stock boot.img S 300
Can anyone provide me stock boot.img of update
S 300. Boot.img taken backup of TWRP.
I have problem in my phone's volume kyes so I can't reboot to recovery without root .
dont update it since update my cell signal drops suddenly
the battery is drained faster than before
Other Companies - Updates for better performance
Lenovo - Updates for poor performance
Why provide an update after 2 years and break the devices suddenly? Maybe they found that some people are still using the device and decided to make them buy newer ones..

Done but battery drain faster and there is no improvement in GPS. GPS is working as earlier. Rolling back. :victory::victory:
Would be better if they have updated it to Pie :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::laugh::laugh:

Yes but I mean if I do not lose my files when updating, like my photos or applications I hope and you answer me fast because I am about to update
I didn't lose any files.
Heads up that payment apps do not currently work with this update. Android Pay says this is not an official rom, and LG Pay requires and update for android 10 that doesn't exist yet. I suspect because although it might be official firmware, it hasn't officially been released yet.
Hmmm thinking of pulling the trigger on this. Wondering if they made improvements in the camera app? Also wondering if there is a battery drain. A lot of updates from several different phone manufacturer's are reporting battery drain after updating to Android 10.
Yes

I notice the battery exactly the same, the camera improved and added new modes, but mainly the interface and fluidity of the Android 10 device improved much more than with Android 9
I took a gamble and decided to install it. Maaananaannnnn am I love this update. What a refinement! Feels like a new phone so much more polished that 9 was on the g8. Also loving the system wide dark made aka night mode. Everything is so buttery smooth
Meanwhile T-Mobile won't say anything on when they will push the update out for their variant. :crying:
With the security lock screen are the numbers suppose to be so small
