Updating through Firmware Finder but No Badges for all apps! & slow wifi connection

I received my 32GB Huawei Mediapad M3 from Amazon USA and because of no updates available, I used firmware finder and sent the 2.49GB firmware (the middle one) to my updater, then I applied the top one skipping the 2nd one with the 656MB (thinking that it's the same version as the 3rd one).

Am I fine with what I did? or I should install that second update?

Another remark is that I can't see all app badge notifications like FB, Pages Manager...etc but I can see it for some apps only which is weird (plz see screenshot below)

The 3rd issue which annoys me a lot is the very slow wifi connection. I'm quite sure my router is innocent because my 4 year old phone (LG G2) is having my full connection speed (which is about 14 Mbps) but my tablet is just taking only up till 2 or 3 Mbps! (I used speedtest). Is it because I'm using non-official ROM or something? Can I get a link - with instructions - on how to download the latest official ROM?

What vers did you get to begin with? Was it C128B005?
What update method did you use? The DNS, or the proxy or SD card?
Is your bluetooth working? Do you have all the apps that were there when you first got it?
I think the one you used is the full update, and the others are incremental updates.
You used the B351 update to get from B350 to B351. If you wanted to use the B350 incremental update, I'm not sure what version it would update from.
Did you try to get updates from the HiSuite PC program?

I used Firmware Finder and I sent my update to the updater.
Bluetooth and GPS are turned off.
I don't know the original build that came with the tablet fresh out of the box but it was the old Marshmallow with EMUI 4.x.
I indeed used the bigger full update (2.5GB) first and then updated to build B351 (which was around 70MB)
I'm downloading the HiSuite PC Program right now and I'll check what I can do with it because I'm not happy with the WIFI performance at all at the moment. When I downloaded the firmware using the proxy method, the whole update downloaded very quickly using the same exact router so I'm quite sure the updates with the Wifi on my tablet are not playing well together.

Updates:
I don't know what happened all of a sudden but the wifi speed return back to the normal speed I'm used to.
HiSuite doesn't show any recent updates as it tells me I have the latest.
I tried to recover my tablet and start fresh but HiSuite doesnt' support my tablet!

I have no keyboard problems. I still have no luck with badges missing from some apps like fb. I'm not sure if this is because I'm using a Wi-Fi tablet only or not.

the USA version of the M3 for some reason does NOT enable the 5GHZ wifi band, only the 2.4GHZ, so thats why wifi is slower on this device than it might be on your other 5GHZ enabled devices..hopefully, this gets fixed some day..

I have a US WiFi only tablet that would barely get 25mb down and my pixel next to it would get 50mb. I have FiOS internet and I switched to there newest router (quantum gateway) the other day and I now get 50mb down. I only ever use 2.4ghz on all my devices. There was something about that other router this tablet just didn't like. Wonder if this is the issue others are having, maybe it just doesn't like certain routers.
