Only whatsapp - random happenings. Not critical issue at all for me
No notification issues on other app - tweeter, facebook, mail, newsfeed, SMS etc
One can set how notifications be at settings/ notification panel/notification center
It seems the China sets has such whatsapp notification issue?

Good sales at KL ??http://klgadgetguy.com/news/2016/3/11/the-huawei-mate-8-gets-overwhelming-sales-response-at-stores-and-vmallmy

Tried inside my car with vkool tinted film, many android phones compare to iPhone gps, android phones performance very unsatisfactory, I need to hold the phone on top of dash board to get gps signal whereas iPhone 6 s + I can just rest on my lap and get extremely good gps signal.
Wonder how this phone perform

The "VIP card" is only for the China version.

It's useless for us outside of China.

Thanks - it was driving me crazy when I had my honor 7 - had a few missed notifications here and there, some days its good and once in a while the issue comes back ....other than that issue - it was pretty damn good. However i use whatsapp for a lot of my work related matters so i need something thats more reliable...

hi benny, read that root guide u posted , it says to :

Option 1: Make a Huawei ID on your phone and stay signed in for 14 days and go then online to unlock your bootloader and it should work on the website.

make a huawei id on your phone, how? i go to settings, accounts, add account, no make huawei id option... and if i make huawei id on website, where do i sign in on my phone?

oh and the firmware... not sure where to check but its december 2015 build.

Thats why i am very amazed with the signal and network... seriously my previous note5 was totally kicked by this Mate8..

Especially the highlight for this mate8 is the instant switch from Wifi-Data.. i am very impressed so far..

Generally.. no regret from switching it from note5.. and in fact im totally sold out for it for the time being..

now i shall be waiting for my 9v2a charger from Huawei china.. hehe...

Check your firmware at : settings/About phone/Build Number

To get your unlock code ( only after 14 days registration of HW ID) , email to HW : mobile@huawei.com giving them your phone details :

Model -
IMEI : the first top one will do
Serial number :
Product ID :

For Product ID :

Bring up the dialpad and enter the characters below. An 8-digit ID will then be displayed.
*#*#1357946#*#*

Just sign up a HW ID at HW main site using email address : LINK

Once you had done that , just sign in at your phone at Settings/Huawei ID

By default , it's OFF but u can root your phone and enable it

Hi Benny

How is the delayed notifications issue? Still present?
*
Still present especially in China roms due to Doze settings where it doesnt get out of Doze . So far , international rom dont seem to have it . Solution is , again , need to root it and use tasker to set some permission to run OR go custom firmware where it's fixed for almost all the roms
