Get it change while it is still new

Your download is simply corrupted. The downloaded zip is 1.54gb

I suggest you keep a copy on the ext sdcard in case of emergency you need to reflash phone. I always keep the latest n previous firmware update on my ext sdcard

I dont see any significant difference with b180 on battery usage. Great as before
Flash b180 exactly as b320 . However downgrading back might wipe your phone.
Your wakelocks is indeed high with such usage

Updated to b321

No bugs found yet on b321. I dont see any significant difference with b320
I always update to latest firmware n doesn't bother with other users comments. Infact I would say 9.9/10 times I rarely faced those reported issues on any firmware update on my other Androids too
My comments on Mate 8 photo shots : I am happy with it unlike some users here. Perhaps my demands on photo shot quality isn't that high vs some users here. I would say the shot quality is comparable to Nexus 6p, Note5. I dont faced those reported focus problems at all. The best camera pics is still with my other LG V10 n ex S7e. If photo shot quality is critical do consider these 2 phones instead

Yes

SoyaCincau fllattering review of this phone

http://bit.ly/1S3lxPH

Mate 8 average 10-11 hours SOT vs 7-8 on S7e
Mate 8 very obviously cooler too in use
My usage 80% internet based stuffs ( browsing, email, facebook, tweeter, many newsfeed app etc) with no gaming

Battery usage gets better with each firmware update especially on standby. These days battery drain overnight hardly exceed 2% over 7-8 hours. Doze is getting better. My phone all my wakelocks minimum and well controlled. Even on ex Mate7 I get similar SOT except on standby battery drain is higher

Yes . On b321 now

His tests I feel s meaningless as each based on a single feature. No one I believe will buy and use a smartphone for any single feature
Just note his concluding comments :
For what it’s worth, I’ve used all four devices as my daily driver over the course of this year, and I can say with confidence that despite being neck-and-neck with the Nexus 6P, I found the Mate 8 to last far longer.

It contradicts all his specific tests
Based on my experience using both Mate 8 , Z5p, S7e n Nexus 6p : all similar app n usage ( internet stuffs, call, sms, ebook etc) these are my SOT figures
Mate 8 10-11 hours, S7e 7-8 hours n Nexus6p 5-6 , z5p 4+ hours

Settings/smart assistant/navigation bar

Overall S7e is a very much better phone in display, performance, camera etc except battery life. However it's battery life I still consider as good with its 3600 battery n I consistently get up to 7-8 hours SOT
However it's size is too small as Samsung had over compact it's dimensions that it doesn't feel like having a 5.5 inch display.
I love both phones but prefer Mate 8 simply because of its bigger display

LG V10 has dual sim card and slot for ext sdcard

I don't quite understand why some users are unhappy with firmware b321 n reverted back to b320?
I don't see any critical bugs and battery life is better too

With GPS on, I always had phone charged with car charger. Any phone will drain battery highly on GPS usage
Heat generation is also highest using GPS
Music playing with screen dimmed off one hour around 7%. If your display is on same time obviously drain will be higher
The Mate8 still is one of the Android phone with best battery life. If one is not even happy with it, I cannot recommend any others already. Example based on my usage, Mate 8 SOT is around 10-11 hours vs others I had used this year : Nexus 6p ( 5-6), S7e ( 7-8), Note 5 (6-7), HTC 10 ( 4-5), LG V10 (4-5)

Extract the zip to get the folder dload ( about 2.8gb)
Copy this folder into root of internal memory or ext sdcard
Switch off phone. Press simultaneously power n vol up n vol down buttons. Once phone bootup release power button. Once you see emui splash screen release both vol buttons
Firmware will be flashed n phone will reboot twice

You installed an official firmware and it will NOT root your phone
To root phone you must first unlock bootloader ( need unlock code from Huawei) , than install custom recovery and flash supersu zip
You can still receive OTA after that firmware version you had flashed

On B321 too n with no gaming , 80% on internet stuffs my SOT 10-11 hours usually
All my wakelocks well controlled
