The overnight battery drain last night with the new update was 4% over 8 hours, so that’s 0.5% per hour on standby. That’s kinda similar to what I’m normally getting (2-5%) so it’s acceptable.

Good to hear that.

Had tried before on various other HW phones
It will first detect whether your phone is compatible before is downloaded and install
Quite easy and straightforward process
Compatibility will depend on age of your phone. It could be incompatible now but could be days or weeks later
I think the software identify first your firmware and date phone is manufacture
No harm trying if you are interested

Seems handy having this app. Now no need to wait for the OTA then

Just realize that can assign gesture to Nova launcher. I'm used to double tap to sleep/wake and found that can add this gesture in Nova.

bro, i mean after installing it, how do you like it with the new 130 version, any improvements, etc per se.
great to hear, the "clear cache" in recovery mode is also doing the phone a great job. highly recommended to do this as a standard modus operandi.

I think got improvement. I can see that my battery SOT I'm getting more than usually what I got. Thats good for me

I'm used to clear cache during my old days flashing thru OnePlus. After every flashing will wipe clear cache/dalvik. Just used to it.

And so ends my adventure with the P20 Pro after a month smile.gif

My overall take on the phone is that it's a solid effort by Huawei. Battery life is good and EMUI has improved by leaps and bounds since I last used a Huawei device as a primary phone (Mate 8) although as it is with most skins, it depends a lot on individual preference. What works for me may not work for you.

The showpiece of the phone, the camera, was a little bit of a hit and miss for me. While its low light shots are pretty much unrivaled, the over saturation of colors in some scenarios may not be to everyone's liking. I found the AI to be a little annoying - As an experiment, I tried taking photo of starfruits, and it kept switching from food to greenery and to flowers laugh.gif Selfies are pretty much unusable, but I don't take selfies much so that's fine.

Oh, and the novelty of owning the twilight color fades faster than I imagined, ha ha...

I guess the AI need to include more fruit selection & algorithm to distinguish between a star, a fruit or a greenery scenario. Guess the AI is confused with the star+fruit object biggrin.gif
