beside of that, try enable auto run for messaging app

*Note i dont own a Mate8 yet

Hi stevenx, tried that but doesnt really work

Are you using the Chinese version? Just curious though.

or try look it out at xda .. some people discuss about this issue in general thread ..

Actually I am also facing the problem with P8 Max. I got two version, one is china version and the other is international version. Both same problem. The only other way is to run the application on the background, then all message come in will have immediate notification. If you kill the apps, you will only get those message when the start the app.

I have read xda and all other forum, apparently the culprit is Huawei phone manager app which have too tight security. Many said that the problem will be solved once you remove this app. As this is default app, the only way to remove it is to root your phone which I am not ready to do that yet. I am currently leaving the apps running on background and so far so good.

Strange is that this did not happen when i previously use Mediapad X1 and Mate 7 running kitkat. Only recently when update to lollipop, this happen. Even my other G7 also have no such issue but running kitkat.

Update: There seem to be update for Whatapp and it seem that its fixed for my international version of P8 max. It is now working even when the apps is not running at background . But the China version is still facing the same problem

I recently got Mediapad M2 and I have just tested, No issue for this as well running lollipop.

I always replace the phone ui with either Nova or Action 3. I had never like all.OEM launchers even including Google vanilla in Nexus 6P

Why do you need root to disable system app? Just use package disabler to remove whatever bloatapps. It's easy to use and its without root. That's the best part yet.

I thought that app is only compatible with Samsung phones ??

Don't think so. I used it on my Xperia Z3+ before, it worked fine. But I'm aware it's a Samsung thing only. But not sure how I got my Z3+ to work too.

It fails on my LG V10 with error message is incompatible

i buy in sz huawei mate 8 128 gb nxt al10 with huawei watch stainless 5500rmb

Has anyone any ideas on how to root this device please? Also any custom ROMs available as yet?

Screen better than note 5?

Those who like SuperAmoled of Samsung will not like the LCD type display
It boils down to one taste
I had used all the Samsung Galaxy series till S6E and Note series till Note 5 : Sadly but truly I had never like Samsung Amoleds as I still find their colors as too bright, fake and over saturated

Come on Huawei..... Bring it in faster laaa

It's RGBW screen.. So to me its really is beautiful.. The contrast are there but without the extra saturation.. Hard to tell in words.. Have to see to appreciate.. Body size also is nice and the front wrap around screen (like mate s) really made it beautiful..
