Very big different.price also

I mean in term of features. Price almost 1.5k differ. I've tested kaw kaw at Celcom Bluecube, in the end decided to skip Mate 8. With Mate 8 will be huge learning curve to be familiar with. Yesterday saw Pre-order of RN3, the insta grab. Temporary phone while waiting my g4 back from sc.

Not to generalise but some Malaysian is freaking lazy and kiasu at times.

-10% it is very cheap. For Maybank user only today. Btw, 3gb is fast enough, as I tested on Celcom Bluecube, no 4gb ram available. If I didn't buy RN3, I'd insta buy this too. Good sharing tho. Thanks.

not necessary cheapest, as long fit my need then will be fine. At first Mate 8 was on my top list, after dual sim G4, Vibe x3.
My G4 got bootlooped. No good phone for weeks. Now using my wife's mi3.

Damn, I've done B180 upgrade + unlock altogether but I've forgot to perform backup on my phone... especially last backup on whatsapp and all the 2FA backup...

now I have to restore the phone App by App + settings...

You don't have to unlock bootloader you only intend to upgrade firmware... I have my titanium backup to freeze unwanted apps that's the reason I choose to root my phone...

Uncle Benny, one question for you... TQ

How are we going to flash to new firmware update if we use TWRP recovery? Do we need decrypted boot image to do so or... ?

Not too clear about this... i.e. if TWRP able to understand update.app?

All official firmware can only be flash with stock recovery
Use app flashify to flash recovery back to stock
Use software Huawei update extractor to extract stock recovery from the update.app. just copy the stock recovery.img file to any location in phone
You can flash any official firmware on rooted phones

Okay, do realised Huawei eRecovery + TWRP are separate thing... quite confusing...

but anyway... I'm kinda get what you mean.

Thanks!

Mine was 4gb version and upon switch on was prompted to update to b170
Most of us here got it
Maybe 3gb version is slower - try check few days later
