Good job for the new thread!!

bro my unit doesn't have any problem with GPS/Waze
it's a China unit and GPS will lock almost instantly, maybe it's a problem with local units??
any other people got GPS problem??

the holder looks nice but it's pricey

my last tempered glass screen protector was a disaster...
now using anti fingerprint screen protector

damn it black is so tempting

haizzz me same experience too last time...
i wish there are other oleophobic coating screen protector in the market

what's the price of the pouch?

100+ for the pouch is a bit expensive

Found out that the default browser is a battery killer!!
It eats up the battery a lot more than chrome

i've never tried dolphin or boat.. I don't install lots of app actually except for news apps
so what's special features that dolphin/boat browser have over chrome?

i think maybe got, but is china imported not huawei malaysia set

thanks for pointing out bro
too bad no ota update yet...

How to backup and restore from backup?
Will the icon/folder arrangements be restored?

thanks bro
found the app. It's in cloud folder

Finally i manually update the phone to latest 4.4.2 emui 2.3

Visually different from the previous version and feels like something new. Lock screen improved a lot and i like the new feature apps appear at bottom with one line of quote. That's refreshing change

Still playing around to discover new changes to the phone

But then again nowadays I'm not taking the long haul bus ride home but instead driving myself. So the play time with the phone have decreased a lot

Yes it is 503L. The firmwares cant be used for local set and vice versa

Update firmware by downloading the ROM and extract to SD card root folder, it will contain always a folder "dload". Make sure it is there. Then go to settings -> updates -> system updates -> local update
The ROM will then do its magic

Make sure your SD card MUST be in FAT32 format and have got more than 6GB free space, battery power >30% or plug in power

For those who can understand mandarin, see the attachment

Yes it is
I remember another forumer checked and local set will get OTA update after 1 Sept. It is a few posts back

Well, after playing with the phone over lunch time, I love the new interface. Some have commented the fonts are big but for me it's acceptable
I especially like the subtle lock screen improvements
i do notice the battery drain when idle is faster than the previous version but at this point i can't be sure as i haven't restored everything

From the backup, home screen icon arrangement can't be restored so u gotta re-do the icons/widgets all over again. A small setback but nothing serious

if u didn't delete any system apps after root u can direct OTA update
even if u deleted system apps u will still get notification for update, but u couldn't complete the update

if u face this situation, flash ROM manually

I have never face any call problems with this phone before. I can even say signal reception is better than Samsung phones. Previously in office I get weak 1-2 bar 4G signals on Samsung phones but the X1 I get consistently full 1 bar short of full

If u get full bar signal on your phone but voice calls still can't get through it could be network congestion. Try call to/from your office phone to check. If phone show weak signal then it is maxshit problem

Make sure your SD card is in FAT32 format, and also at least 5GB free space
Trigger the update by: settings -> updates -> system updates -> local update

I have posted a guide in Chinese few pages back, search for that post

The contents of the .zip file u downloaded must be extracted to the root of the SD card folder. It will always contain a folder "dload"

If u have already created the folder "dload" maybe try deleting the existing "dload" folder and use the one extracted from the .zip file instead

I might be letting this baby go and buy iphone 6+
got anyone interested? Mine is China device and so update is never a problem
