Hello guys. I've read a lot about this "Beta" application huawei released for testing out beta softwares. I downloaded it on my Huawei P20 lite and when I tried joining project, it says that my phone is not supported. Any ideas on what that means and how to fix it? Just trying to see if there is a EMUI 10 beta for P20 lite, but unfortunately I can't even join a project
Have a nice day!

Im stuck on ANE-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0. 142 how can get back to an stock firmware and then receive the updates again? Any guide or tutorial... Thank you
I think you can download the rom on androidhost.ru. Make sure it's for the correct model. Then you can install with the dial code (you may have used it to get emui 9.1). Can't test it since I got rid of my p20 lite a while ago, but I'm sure it should work.

Have you tried also 'Wipe cache partition' in Stock Recovery ? Or reinstall AccuWeather?

I think is very radical to wipe cache partition just for weather app, but i think is a Huawei - AccuWeather server problem or Huawei weather sources for weather in China and outside of China, when is read from Chinese source when i click for more weather informations the app redirect me to Chinese weather site i dont know name because of Chinese letters. Yesterday i wrote ti huawei support on Twitter, Facebook, email to huawei - on all support platforms :D and to Huawei support here in Macedonia and Serbia.

Today i don't have that problem, i don't know maybe they fixed.

    Hallo hallo guys :)

    I found something good here https://www.theandroidsoul.com/huawei-honor-android-9-pie-update/ which states (I's not clear if this is official info) but it's attached the image ;)



    I actually think Huawei might not do this and ship instead the Pie on the same date as the Huawei p20 and p20 pro, because this is not a common 200, 300 euro phone, it's a 400 mid range phone which to be honest it's a high price for a "medium" range phone. Won't even talk about Sony :D.


    Cheers,

    Alex


    UPDATE: Recent news of November 28 on a chinese source of Huawei tell us that we will be the next phase to test out EMUI 9 Beta after the models which have access to it since Yesterday. Attached image and link to sources.
    https://www.weibo.com/3514064555/H4NemxW8q?type=comment#_rnd1544010777367
    https://www.ixbt.com/news/2018/11/29/emui-9-0-android-9-0-pie-honor-8x-huawei-nova-3i-huawei-maimang-7.html

    UPDATE(As of 10 of December): According to yesterday Weibo(Chinese Twitter) Huawei account we may have finally a date for the EMUI 9 Beta release, according to their image which I could only translate properly with Cambridge online dictionary, after the words "nova 3e" which is our model it says something like "Internal test recruitment expected to be launched in January" which makes sense since there's only number 1 in there :) , that's the best translation I could've find.
    Links:
    https://weibo.com/3514064555/H6C78nkYz
    http://www.cnsoftnews.com/news/201812/77093.html - This one needs a complete page translation but you can do it using chrome automatically.
    Attached image.
    UPDATE (as of 7 of January): Great day to be alive guys :) My sources are always good, as it seems they have opened internal BETA recruitment of EMUI 9 on China for our model Nova 3e(P20 Lite) and also for Huawei Enjoy 9 Plus (yes, it is called like this...XD), just as I predicted to this month and just like they said on the same source Weibo, link: https://www.weibo.com/3514064555/HaSgozmA2?type=comment#_rnd1546873618942

    Poster is attached, because an image is always better :)

    For now though it is only open on China, but as soon as it gets to europe it should be quite quick ;)

    UPDATE(As of 8 of January): A new blog post reveals the information and confirmation of the Chinese EMUI 9 Beta release:
    https://www.theandroidsoul.com/huawei-invites-beta-testers-for-android-pie-for-nova-3e-and-huawei-y9-2019/
    Includes the limit of 2000 participants per country and model for the testing.
    UPDATE(As of 21 of January): EMUI 9 Beta is now downloadable in China for who applied for it and new expected stable release dates are available on this source which match my expectations: https://www.theandroidsoul.com/huawei-nova-3e-update/
    I expect the stable version to hit China on the mid/end of February even though the source says it expects it in March.
    The stable version global rollout would probably be from March to April as it says.
    UPDATE(As of 24 of January): Found out a new news link from Italy which does confirm that within two weeks their Single SIM version of Italy from the TIM carrier will receive the update POGGERS :D
    Source: http://www.optimaitalia.com/blog/2019/01/17/brucia-tutti-huawei-p20-lite-tim-nel-ricevere-emui-9-tweet-ufficiale-ma-servono-precisazioni/1342206
    It's in italian so either use Google Chrome browser for automatic translation or use google for that ;)
    But on the tweet from the TIM carrier they say literally "Hello Mark, within two weeks you will receive the update. See you soon"
    The news link is from January 17, so depending on the carriers of the countries of europe some will receive sooner and others will receive later this month ;) Be patient guys, the force is within us :p

    UPDATE(As of 30 of January): A news post of Japan reveals oficial information on the update of the stable version of EMUI 9 for the SIM-Free version of the japanese model of Huawei P20 Lite and others.
    Source: https://k-tai.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/1167193.html
    If you translate the website via Google Chrome and analyse the image that I attached from the news post you can clearly see it will be delivered in May in Japan.
    Image attached.
    UPDATE(As of February 4/12):Android pie BETA released in China!!!!! Please find it on the firmware finder website or app of the chinese models like ANE-AL00. Picture Attached for proof. :D :D :D

    Android Pie upgrade plan in Hicare

    I've just spotted this in the official Huawei hicare app don't know if someone's already mentioned it.

    It is working just as laggy as 8.0 IMO which is not bad. I didn't hard reset (yet) because I want to provide feedback to Huawei and maybe send some error reports. I will be doing clean install eventually. Video on bottom.

    Some facts:
    - the update took around 15 minutes, the update screen is different than on 8.0 and the Huawei logo is different as well
    - the system is very laggy after the update, after it's finished it's all good
    - the YouTube app is full screen finally (behind the notch)
    TT1nIul.png

    - the sound is much louder (on headphones and speaker)!
    - each app is a little bit animated when you open it or hide it, it's laggy sometimes
    - new task manager / switcher looks nice and works nice too
    - camera seems to look cooler, pictures sharper maybe, night mode pics below, day time pics coming tomorrow
    - screenshots are pretty cool now! you will see when you get it, when you take them you see a miniature and you can swipe to do things to it (upload etc)

    Really small album here (night mode pictures, highest quality possible, created on tripod):
    https://imgur.com/a/HbrYrKE

    I will post more tomorrow when I take some more pics and tests.

    Video of the system running (sound off):
    link coming soon, youtube processing

    Since you guys are waiting I can safely say after few days that this build is really stable, I didn't have any major problems except for slower Gallery and Camera. But I got used to it already so it's ok. Still, the touch works different, not worse but different at least on my phone.

    I got the update but the release notes say the same things which I mentioned earlier.

    - I will not be able to use third party launchers (this makes a little bit of sense, they want me to test their products after all)
    - They strongly recommend to uninstall Google Play Services before updating, I mean what?!

    Has anyone from India updated yet? I want to know if it is indeed true or they have just copied and pasted Chinese changelog.

    Edit: No worries. I took the plunge and everything works, including third party launchers and Google Play Services. Yay!
