Official OTA update received for the International European version: NXT-L29C432B170

[themissionimpossible]

This evening my Mate 8 3/32 NXT-L29 International European version (Italian unbranded, unrooted) received an OTA update of about 288 MB.

Previous ROM version was NXT-L29C432B152
New ROM version is NXT-L29C432B170

No particular changelog except for the resolution of Gmail email notification problem when in standby, some Huawei Watch notification problems and latest Google patches.

After this update my Mate drained much much faster than before! Even in Power Safe mode it loses a lot....

Wipe data for Google Keyboard, you can disable it too.

I'm still testing, but the possible observed bigger battery drain could be due to a new doze management that doesn't allow the processor to reach a deep power saving condition as before so to solve the notification problem when the phone is in standby.

Well I hope a fix is coming soon. Not rooting the phone so I'm stuck with this one unfortunately.

What does this? Could this be a fix for battery drain?

On one Polish Android forum, a few users had battery drain and high mobile data usage with it. It might be responsible. I have it disabled and battery drain is lowered for me from B152.
Also, remember that if a newly installed app is added automatically to the protected app list in the battery manager, it is also added to the Doze exemption list (or rather I think it works that way).
Make sure you go to Settings->Applications->Advanced->Ignore optimizations and exclude the apps you want to be stopped by Doze.

After almost a couple of days I haven't noticed any significant increase in the battery drain.

Furthermore, the notification problem I had with K9-mail under wifi connection is apparently gone.

With C432B170 I get only 7-8h SOT with 48h battery runtime. Listen to music for only round about 3h over Bluetooth and 85% of the time using lte. Now I'm testing the C10B172 and here it's the same battery life. On C432B152 with B162 Kernel I had 8-9h SOT with the same lte usage but with 8-10h listen to music.

Hi all, I have a problem with my mate8 ... after I installed TWRP next rom (NXT-L29C432B170) can not just write anything in fastboot. I fastboot unlocked but not take any order. I can not do root. I can not do flash custom recovery. I can not flash another rom. I can not change themes. Help me please.

Sorry for your problems, but please note that you are posting in the wrong thread: this one is only for who received the NXT-L29C432B170 through OTA, nothing to do about fastboot, TWRP, etc....
You should ask here:

At least my problems with K9-mail notification under wifi in standby condition are now gone.
