  • im useing mate 7 version i10 can i update it

  • Should I upgrade to Marshmallow ? I'm using lollipop but for a couple of months my phone is lagging and the battery life is not good anymore?

  • Mine kept doing the same. It was the charger connector. Take the phone out of the cover to charge it the connection will be better.

  • I am using mate 7 - TL10 since Feb 2016. However I am facing serious issue. The phone almost all the time takes about 10 sec to wake from screen lock mode. Sometimes it totally hang and can't work till starting again. I upgraded to Marshmallows MEA official upgrade but the issue still the same. Can anyone support.

  • Anyone know the default factory phone lock pin?

  • i am using it since 2015, it was nice till 2 months back at which time i have difficulties on charging. the pin is not accepting charge and eventhough it shows signal as if its charging, it doesn;t charge for real and finally become off. i couldn;t get acessory easly nearby.

  • upgraded to Marshmallow, works fine. MT7-TL10

  • Please I update to 5.1.1 lollipop on my mate 7, but some function are not working anymore..... Please how can I go back to my kitkat.....

  • I have been using this phone since Sep 2015. I picked this phone at USD 380 which was a discounted price during GITEX in Dubai. Display is big and beautiful with sharp, vivid colors and less bezels (78% phone made in Oct 2014). Much criticized EMUI software is easier to use than Sammy's touchwiz and Xiaomi's convoluted MIUI. EMUI has additional useful features which is not available in stock android. Built quality is very good if not outstanding. Battery life (4100 mAh) was super until I updated to Android 6 after which I assume drop of 10-15% screen time. On the downside, Camera is poor; colors are too pale with yellow tint and pictures are very noisy in indoor lighting. Audio is loud but lacks quality. There was no over the air update from Android 4 to 6, so I had to download the firmware from Huawei website. No Noughat update is also disappoints. However, considering the price point at which I picked this phone, it was an excellent buy.

  • You can upgrade.

  • i had been using this phone since 2015.. so far its a great phone.android 6.0 is good .. no complaints so far. fast phone esp on youtube and browsing..love this phone for 3 years already

  • Thanks a lot Africa User, downloaded the Marshmallow ROM and it worked just fine on my Mate 7. Cheers!

  • Absolute junk, Typical huawei bad software, no updates and a poor user experience, laggy phone, spend the extra and buy a used 6s plus !

  • You can install the full Marshmallow Android 6 firmware for MT7-TL10 Middle-East & Africa by downloading the C185B560 firmware directly from the Kuwaiti region of the Huawei website. This firmware is only for Middle East and Africa, and not Europe or Asia.

  • You can also download Full Android 6.0 Marshmallow firmware from the Stechguide website. The link for the C185B560 MT7-TL10 full firmware for Middle east and Africa, downloads from the Huawei website.

  • I have upgraded my MT7-TL10 Gold from lollipop to Marshmallow B560 using the advice from the Ministryofsolutions website for Middle East and North Africa region. Battery life improved. I have in the past had to replace the CPU and LCD screen. It seems to be a problem for MT7-TL10. The hardware is good for the price. B560 update gives more value to the EMUI and software. There is no official nougat for this phone.

  • After upgrade Marshmallow Imei number not shown. Please advise

  • Huawei not keep the promise Today, 14th August, 2017, still running Android 4.1.2. No further upgrade available. No USB audio. Although the phone hardware still strong, the software obsoleted. No more Huaiwei. "Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), upgradable to 5.1.1 (Lollipop), planned upgrade to 6.0 (Marshmallow)"

  • can someone help me, im using mate 7 with build no. MT7-TL10C185B560, 32gb memory running on EMUI 4.0 and Android 6.0 the internal memory almost running low though i only have 6 apps which i downloaded from the playstore. how can i free my memory. the apps already been stored on SD Card. thanks in advance

  • Camera quality sucks...i don't think the quality is equivalent to 13 MP

  • Good profomence

  • There is no Android 7.0 for this phone.

  • Me too if you found away tell me please

  • Open your computer browser, go to consumer.huawe.com and download the file. Make sure you have selected a correct region and model of your phone. In downloaded file there is a file named dload copy it to your SD card. On your phone go to settings-updater and select local update. Updating will start immediately penitently grab a cup of coffee and wait.

  • go XDA developer ,they have all the info there step by step

  • Hii....can i know how do i get my huawei mate 7 updated...cause till today its still rinning on 4.4.2...!!! Tk u in advance to all....

  • It's a stock rom based on the latest firmware. Search for Ale95 KangVip V3.1 on the Mate 7 XDA page, I'm using it at the moment with no bigger issues. There are some smaller bugs of course, but after you went through the configuration progress (it has a lot more settings than the regular EMUI) it's way better than stock rom. There's also a Honor 6 Plus port, but it's newer and has therefore still many bugs. I can't tell you how the battery life is though because I'm never doing the same things with my device. But I have GPS/LTE always enabled, brightness rarely below 100%, I play games all the time especially when I'm not at work and I'm listening to my music with bluetooth and the display is active all the time while I drive(I mount the device on the windshield in my car so I can easily switch music). When I come home in the evening the battery is usually at like 35% so I guess there's no battery drain coming from the rom.

  • Same for me, I still have warranty but I don't mind it enough to send my device to my retailer. It is a known issue, If I remember correctly the battery or the CPU/GPU is not separated well enough from the LCD itself.

  • There will most likely not be an update to Nougat.. Many Chipsets from Snapdragon, Mediatek and also Huaweis own Kirin chipsets are unable to run Android 7, in case of Huawei it's the following: Kirin 620, Kirin 920, Kirin 925, Kirin 930, Kirin 935 (Mali GPU). Huawei Switzerland confirmed this. I'm quoting this german article from huaweiblog.de:

  • Both work fine, I'm using a 128 GB SanDisk micro sd card right now

  • I have this phone 1 years ago and it is working perfectly on android 6.0 .Does any one here know if mate 7 will get android 7 nogut or not.please answer me and how to make this.best regards

  • card slot ??? 64 or 128 please mention correctly

  • I have my mate 7 for a year now, no problems with it whatsoever, except one, whenever i change my wallpaper it gets dimmer on the homescreen, the lockscreen is displaying 100% brightness but not the homescreen. It dims the wallpaper to, say...80% of it brightness. I even tried it with another launcher and it still has the same issue. Does anyone know how to adress this? I think its an EMUI feature but i would like to get rid of it

  • I dave this phone 2 years ago ant it is working perfectly on android 6.0 .Does any one here know if mate 7 will get android 7 nogut or not.please answer me and how to make this.best regards

  • Didn't get wihte patches on your screen in 2 years? I had tow mate 7s and I just got white patches on both!!! First one after 2 to 3 mounts Ans second after just 14 days of use Everybody share your expraince and oppinion please

  • Same problem here I had this phone 2 years ago After about 2 to 3 mounts screen got wihte patches, little bit first and grown time by time until i got mad and came to service center ... they told me my device has not warranty enymore... Then i sold my phone and stuipidly got a new one again Just after 14 days these patches have came again and my device is in service center for replace screen. .. Can anyone can tell us if they facing same problem or had one? I think this is because battery behind the screen

  • Hey bro You said about at least one active rom for mate 7 I have L09 model and its really good... what is that active rom you mentioned? You mean stock rom or an active costum rom? Please tell us more about

  • Throw a new launcher on it (because the stock launcher is what most people dislike) and enjoy a phone with a huge screen without having to worry about charging the phone. The performance obviously isn't the best anymore but it only really matters in games (GTA Sa for example needs the lowest settings to be playable), other than that you won't have any problems. Roms are a problem tho if you are interested in that kind of stuff, but there's at least one active rom.

  • Do you think it's good enough to buy in 2017

  • It is too good. how much market price of this mate7......?

  • I bought one 2 years ago. nice device. two weeks ago it turned off while in use. just dead! tried everything. took it to service center and still no any news. its definitely my first and last huawei....

  • Clear cache in contacts application under settings>manage apps.

  • My contacts app isn't responding. I can't find my contacts nor can I save new numbers. What should I do???

  • Already update my mate7 tl10 to MM....and really amazing...battery life better than kit kat... performance improved....

  • How can i update my phone until now, i am using kitkat. Please help

  • After inserting the sim2 it wasn't recognized by the phone. I realized that it also didn't have the sim card management in the settings. What do I do? or how do I enable the sim2 slot?

  • Any replay from friends? I got this device few days ago. Everything is well but when check about built-in hardware by CPU-z, Antutu and System info droid then found GPU as Mali T624 not Mali T628 which described in Huawei official page. My inquiry is: GPU is Mali T624 or T628

  • Same situation here. Low mbps for video recording. I don't know what is the problem so i will wait someone to answer you

  • Please help me guys

  • Attention to all of Huawei Ascend Mate 7 user I got this device few days ago. Everything is well but when check about built-in hardware by CPU-z, Antutu and System info droid then found GPU as Mali T624 not Mali T628 which described in Huawei official page. My inquiry is: GPU is Mali T624 or T628

  • Huawei mt7 is the best phone, I have used so far. All the features are amazing.can you imagine, the phone fell In water and it still worked perfectly.

  • Mate 7 or iPhone 6? Anybody could suggest? Thanks.

  • Sorry for the late reply,,, The battery is the same before and after the upgrade

  • Hi Stacey, I might be off track but to upgrade the Ascend Mate 7 to Lollipop isn't as straight forward as I thought it would be. You might have already worked this out but I will share my experience anyhow. To upgrade to Lollipop you have to download a file from the Huawei customer support website and copy the zip file onto your sd card (dload) and do a special local upgrade. This is strange but it is just the way it is. There are plenty of youtube tutorials on this. It isn't difficult (now that I have completed it - but it was something I had never done before). Ensure that you go to the huawei website yourself and search for the correct file that suits your model. You can find your model by going to Settings,(right down the bottom) it says About Phone. Do not click on a link in a review or you tube tutorial (in case of viruses etc). And read the instructions as I unzipped the file before I loaded it onto my sd card on my phone. This is wrong. But I did manage to sort it and I am not technologically minded. After the lollipop is loaded it is just a matter of selecting upgrade again on your phone and it upgrades it then to Marshmallow. I hope this helps. PS just do a bit of research first and have it straight in your mind what needs to be done and don't deviate from your plan as you need patience as it took a while for the upgrades to finalise. Ensure you have full battery and something else to do as do not sit there and stare at the upgrade - you will go mad as it took quite a while.

  • Upgrade to 6, ensure you read the instructions well. If you are on Kit Kat you have to upgrade to Lollipop first then to Marshmallow. But it is well worth it feels like a new phone. I haven't noticed the battery life as yet. I have only upgraded 24 hours ago and I am not a gamer. But I am not sorry I upgraded.

  • I normally only write reviews when a piece of technology has made me angry. I purchased my Huawei Ascent Mate 7 MT7-TL10 from JB Hi Fi in Queensland, in Mid 2015 after my Samsung died and after I was ripped off by an eBayer trying to purchase a HTC. So, I went in to JB Hi Fi and the Huawei had the best specs for the cash I had on hand. There was no other reason in purchasing a Huawei. I have made poor decisions in the past. In 2012, I purchased the Samsung based on reputation, it started freezing after 10 months Telstra wouldn't replace it but cancelled my plan so I could get a new phone on plan, so I purchased a HTC One XL in 2013 through another Telstra plan. The HTC still works but the battery is dodgy. So my 2 year Telstra plan was up and with the cash in hand I went to Ebay - then when that failed went to a retail shop. So I had low expectations of the Huawei Ascent Mate 7 when purchased Mid 2015. It is now November 2016, therefore it has been over 18 months and I am usually sick of a phone by now, but not this one. I love the finger print sensor - it works perfectly. The upgrade to Marshmallow didn't go as planned but that is because I didn't read the instructions. I unzipped the file before I loaded it to the SD card - anyhow a hard reset later and we are good to go. I love the themes and I love the simplicity of the icons. Each icon must be displayed like an apple phone i.e there is no app drawer but I am good with that. The battery life is spectacular. I left the phone at work for the weekend and it still had battery on Monday morning. Albeit 25%. The themes on Marshmallow are just beautiful. But I didn't mind the lack of themes on the Lollipop as I spend too much time working out which theme I want. The settings at times is difficult to get around, but the upgrade to Marshmallow seems to have solved that mostly. My main gripe is that the Smart Cover doesn't work on a case purchased from Ebay. But I pick the phone up, use the finger sensor and we are good to go. I have the sleep settings on at 1 minute. Notifications dragged down from the top work well. Widgets are limited but there are still quite a few available and in truth all the widgets I need are there but. I can overcomplicate many aspects of my life so it is best that it is limited. I live in a regional area in Queensland and I seem to get pretty good signal. Better than other phones I have had. My Mum is changing over from a flip phone and wanted a smart phone for her birthday. My sister and I have agreed to purchase a Huawei GR5 in gold. It is still on lollipop but I have only briefly looked at it to set up emails and other preferences. It seems just as good. I hope it works out as well as my Huawei Ascend Mate 7.

  • It's obvious you don't even use or own the phone.

  • I love mate7

  • What huawei model u using bro..

  • Mate 7 replacement screens on ebay cost about 75$ US. Check to see which touchscreen your phone supports as it affects the LCD screen functionality. I think the MT7-TL00 screen worked for my MT7-L09 phone.

  • I had mate 7 ,its kinda nice phone,baterry will let you stay for 2days even if you have big usage.Big screen.Also i had huawei nexus 6p and anyway i prefer mate 7.

  • mate 7 is kinda old now (2014) but the 6 inch display is perfect for gaming and stuff but the newer g8 will help you keep updated with the newer android versions like nougat(7.0) . mate 7 supports upto android marshmellow

  • It is effected by moisture

  • If your widgets are now 4x5 instead of 5x5 touch and hold dinner on home screen. You can then change layout. I have had this phone for just over a year. Love it. Great battery life and I use it all day. Have multiple email accounts, use social media. And heaps of widgets, easy to arrange and use. Love either dual SIM or extended memory. Broke screen once, bit expensive but got it replaced ok. Overall love my phone.

  • I only used this phone for 4 days, it kept on freezing and now it has deleted all my contacts. To add more excitement to the day, it keeps switching off on it's own. What is the problem?

  • Is "privacy protection" available on Android 6 to mate-7 LT10 dual sim?

  • Hi guys dose the mate7 Chinese version support 4G connectivity out of China

  • android 6.0 in mate 7 is very good and works fine. its battery is the same as it was in lollipop.(a bit decrease from kitkat) .but it can definitely give you a 1.5 to 2 days use .if you have such prob try factory resetting

  • So Sorry Please check your phone with local customer care or check with XDA forums i think it need re-installation of software.

  • Usman sb, With due respect ,my opinion and request is just to notify and register my genuine complaint to Huawei makers,I just wrote what I am facing after updating my fon,that's all. I don't think that I hv written something to irritate anyone.

  • Dear don't put stupid posts i am using it since 2 years and there is no effect after updating Battery is still juicy to deal mu heavy usage my phone get 1.5days per charge. I think u did not updated to Official MM. You updated with a spamy/unstable update & blaming Huawei just just just............ I dont know why such posts are being uploaded by such peoples if 1000 users have no problem then 2 or 3 users have itchy mind to degrade the product & in some cases they even dont use the product in their life but they comment like they are born with this device. A company first try unstable version and unstable version also have 3 to 4 more versions then company finalize the stable version & after complete testing put it for customers. But i dont know why such ill mind customers bought such phone if they dont know how to use them. some people put GPS/4G/All Applications to run in back ground after screen off they put all these things on & complaining about battery life. Its batter for them to connect thier phone directly with NASA power bank to deal power issues :-H

  • yes you can update to MM check XDA form

  • hii i bought my device in Kuwait(middle east) and currently living in India(Asia pacific)...I would like to update my device from lollipop to marshmallow....currently its running under EMUI 3.1(MT7-TL10C900B324)...can someone please elaborately explain the steps to follow in order to update it and also which one i have to follow middle east or asia pacific???

  • Marshmallow version is not suitable for mate 7,it's eating up the battary,and all themes are gone from fon after updating. Earlier there were so many beautiful default themes to choose from,now none of them. Moreover it is very difficult process to unlock huawei ID and download different things on fon...fun is gone after updating to marshmallow.

  • It wss working very good before updating it to marshmallow,since updating battery is draining very very fast and cell is getting heat up,since force updating it to marshmallow I has to chsrge it two times a day,I m planning to reset it to factory setting. Moreover it's very difficult to unlock huawei id snd get themes,only one black theme is available after updating,plz cancel marshmallow and set it to previuos version.

  • Yes it can be replaced from Huawei customer care centre but it will cost almost half of the phone's current price

  • Welcome to the club. Let me know if you find some solution for fixing the screen!

  • I bought a Huawei Mate 7 (32G/3G version) from JB Hi Fi and use for almost 2 years, I love it! Good to use, no problem on software/UI at all, one of the app I use very often is "Phone Manager" which put in by Huawei, it helps to clean phone memory and close apps that running in the background. I drop this phone many times, 2 plastic corner of the generic leather case already fully broken, but the phone itself is still works as new, even the case that near volume buttons is a bit loose. now price drop a lot, thinking to buy another Mate 7. Mate 8 is better, but Mate 7 is good enough so far.

  • You must download the upgrade from Huawei's website since they don't do OTA. My Mate 7 has Marshmallow, so download that one.

  • Please how did you upgrade it? I also want to upgrade my mate 7 from kit Kat to lollipop.

  • Contact Huawei Support SA. An update was rolled out end of June 2016. And it works well.

  • I have purchased a Huawei Ascend Mate7 mainly for the purpose of forex Trading. But this phone is not supporting the Forex Trading tools MT4 which needs latest version of phone. Thus this costly phone has become useless to me. What can I do now? would you please suggest me on my Email. [email protected]

  • I have tried to update my Huawei mate 7 from 4.2 to 5.1,but always have problems.i downloaded the 6.0 update and installed it and my phone is in rescue mode.pls I need need help

  • i just used it for like two weeks or so. and the mic just stopped working' i followed up and many of my friends keep complaining about that very thing... the mic sucks.. I'm pissed

  • Some stock features are gone! The Privacy feature and Magnifier in Mate 7 is lost after upgrading OTA to Android 6.0 EMUI 4.0. They are important!

  • After using it for several days, there doesn't seem to be any bad effects. Mate 7 is running just fine and I'm enjoying it a lot. I hope you're having a similar experience :-)

  • Well on emui 4.0 you are able to replace fonts without root. You must use the ifont apk and choose huawei mode.just download any font pack you like from playstore and look for it on my install in the ifont apk. Then just apply it. Look for it at the themes section.

  • Yes I update my phone yesterday my mate 7 name also change jazz

  • I was wondering my self that?

  • Best phone I have ever used

  • nice

  • I have an LG G4, it's a great device but battery life is killing me besides the very long time it takes to charge, my friend has a Mate 7 (Gold Edition) and I am going to replace my G4 with his Mate 7 just to try it. Hope it won't disappoint me.

  • This is my first Android phone, and I made a jump from iPhone and I also love it...really great cellphone and not expensive. I bough the phone just on last May and it give to you everything you can expect. I tried to avoid the stereotypes and massive TV ads to make my choice and I'm really, really happy :-) If you are planning to try Android get one and you will not be disappoint.

  • What happened to the Security and Privacy Settings in the Huawei Mate 7 in Android 6.0? After upgrading to Android 6 the feature is lost which is a very nice feature of the Mate 7. I agree there is significant improvement in speed after the upgrade but I'd rather go back to the previous version with this feature if I won't loose any data.

  • it is perfectly normal

  • May you can give me the link to download B514 version? Thanks a lot before.

  • One month before i got a new hawei mate 7, but now i hate my phone , beacause some time very hang my phone . i need a customer support plzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • I love my Huawei Mate 7 - probably the best phone I've ever owned!! :-)

  • I don't think it is normal but I have not had any bad behavior due to the name change. I factory-reset my phone just to see if it would change back; it did not. My Mate 7 is now known as Jazz :-|

  • I hope there's a theme that can change all the phone's screen look including the message and also hoping for A phone's FONT

  • i have the same case. is it normal?

  • Is a nice phone,the battery life is ok and lasts for a day plus, the app's icons very beautiful to behold,am contempt with it

  • Hiii reena .first check the available firmware marshmallow update to your region first.be careful not th lose your phone.go to Huawei.com/consumer .define your region and check what is available.

  • Marshmallow update went well. Am now on b512. One thing now is that the Model number shows JAZZ (used to be MT7-TL10). Anyone else see this?

  • Good to know! My MT7-TL10 was recently updated to Lollipop and I plan to update to MM tonight after work. Hopefully I'll have good news to post ^_^

  • Hi I my all friends.I have restored my mate 7 after one complete mother of freezing on Huawei logo.I have visited all customers service here in Egypt.all of them told me your phone is damaged.but with my own effort I have restored it on lollipop 5.1.1 and now I have upgraded it to Android 6 marshmallow b512 and it is working perfectly with now battery problems.I am very happy now .looooool

  • B514 is official and more stable than b512 as it for middleast

  • My advice to you is downdgrade to lollipop then upgrade to m m b514 from carbontesla it is very nice without any issues as huawei id and cloud contacts problem

  • Thank you! and is it the official marshmallow update or the beta version?

  • Is it only way to update just using pc?

  • When will be official marshalow 6,0 update?

  • hi i am using mate 7 and i already updated it to marshmallow.it has its own updater... u can update it using itself..

  • My question is, does the phone support OTA updates or the only way to update from Kitkat is to use a pc?

  • Hi i am currently using mate 7 gold(MT7_TL10C900B324,android 5.1.1)will i be able to update it to marshmellow???...and i am from India

  • Guys,this fone is fine and all but do I need to upgrade my mt7-l09143 to mt7-l09150??my fone doesn't have any issues yet..and what it will do if I upgrade this to mt7-l09150..appreciate anything guys and thanks in advance!

  • This is the Best phone ever used in my life after Samsung and apple.

  • I don't know about Carbontesla, I used this one on Huawei website &it's working fine for me although it's not targeted to Egypt & MiddleEast:

  • well, i did an upgrade from KitKat directly to Marshmellow and it's working fine. The only point was all data & configuration was lost but i already had a backup before the upgrade therefore it wasn't a real problem.

  • downgrade it to kitkate through system sync.

  • U have to first update to b130 for android 4.4.2 Available at Huawei website

  • Thanks guys for good tips My battery 18hrs with heavy usage.

  • Pls tell me now howmany houres ur battry life?

  • Pls tell me now howmany houres ur battry life?

  • Is the Huawei MT7-TL00 version genuine? If so, could someone explain me why it is not popular and there is no information about it at Huawei official site? Help please, I am about to buy it

  • you can normally updateit with b14 version from carbontesla.com and its official

  • You can't upgrade from kitkat to MM, you will need to upgrade to lollipop 🍭 which goes as follows mt7-tl10 B326 and mt7-tl09, and then upgrade to marshmallow you will need mt7-tl10 b511 and mt7-tl09 b522. All your problems are be solved.

  • The only reason you can find yourself in a situation where by your phone freezes on the huawei starting logo is because you downloaded the version from a different region and upgrade your phone, or you upgraded mt7-tl10 using mt7-tl09 update or update your mt7-tl09 using mt7-tl10 update. That will cause a big problem believe me. All you will need is a downgrade transition pack so that you can be able resurrect your bricked phone.

  • I use this phone since it came out no complain never failed me perfect !

  • Same same happened with me but here in Egypt .the local support here told me there is no solution please any one in Egypt can tell me what I should do.this was a big mistake from me to buy this phone I have galaxy note working perfectly. Please help me

  • I tried to update my Mate 7 from Kitkat to MM but it freeze my phone at startup (Huawei Logo) then i visited local mobile repairing shop in KSA & they updated to MM ver 514 i want to know is it official version or not because on Huawei website it was mentioned MM ver 512. & last thing which one is batter Ver 512 or Ver 514???

  • nice

  • Hi, any Marshmallow update for MT7-TL10 .....B23? Im here in Qatar.. Thanksin advanced.

  • My device too was hanging and restarting with no network since last update

  • Yes. Marshmallow B512, B514, B522 all work for MT7-TL10. Go to XDAdevelopers if you want to learn more about updating to marshmallow or if you want to downgrade back to lollipop or to kitkat.

  • If it has potion to download for that then yes,it will work

  • I saw this on Huawei website:http://consumer.huawei.com/my/support/do­wnloads/index.htm?keyword=mt7 "Huawei Mate 7 Firmware(MT7-TL10, Andriod 6.0, EMUI 4.0, C636B512, South Pacific, Channel-Others)" Can I update my Huawei Mate 7 Gold with this? I am from Philippines. Anyone tried this version? Please give feedback before I use this. Thank you.

  • I tried to upgrade my mate 7 to marshmallow beta version from carbontesla site.this upgrade freezed my devivce on start-up screen.please any one can help me.I am losing my mobile

  • How? There is no Official Marshmallow version for Egypt & Middle East! would you please provide me the link of the source you used for the upgrade?

  • Go to the service center,if it is under waranty,it is mouthpiece problem,need to replace

  • I am using Mate 7 and its awesome...better than Samsung...big screen, hd resolution...big screen...its awesome...I recommend to everyone...

  • Hello Mate 7 user, I update my mate 7 ( MTL 09) to Marshmallow , That's very good , But i think lollipop is good in Batttery Life ................................

  • My mate 7 has been updated to android 6.0 marshmallow in Egypt

  • Ah, that makes sense to have rollout stages; I can definitely wait for the official release for my region!

  • The update is rolled out in stages, that's why you probably can't see it in the official Huawei website for your region. You can exercise some patience, it will get there eventually. If you are in a hurry to use marshmallow, you can try the middle east/Africa Huawei website or the Italian website. It has been uploaded there.

  • In term of camera, nexus 5x is better than mate 7 but in other things such as battery life, using memory card, bigger screen(if you like),mate 7 is better and you can use huawei phones for years and years.

  • hi, Huawei Ascend mate 7 (2gb ram) or Nexus 5x? which one is better? should i replace Huawei in a couple of years for a better smartphone or it can last longer?

  • Thanks! I downloaded the zip from Huawei, extracted the zip and followed the install instructions in the document from there. I had to update a few of the google play related apps after the update but all seems well and I'm now running 5.1.1 with EMUI 3.1. I don't yet see the non-beta release for 6.0 on Huawei's official download site, so I'll check back for that later. In the mean time, I'm running Lollipop on my MT7-TL10.

  • hey friends, i have new mate 7 32 with kit kat 4.4.2 , how can i update to official marshmallow directly thanks in advance

  • hy dear,,,,when ever I make call by using 4G net work,, my phone gonna heated since few days...mob software is still kitkat b131 ...no ota update received..

  • Yes you can. You can even go directly to B514 marshmallow and skip Lollipop entirely

  • What version of the Mate 7 do you have and what is your current firmware version?

  • Please stop confusing and feeding unsuspecting people wrong info. That you want to remain stuck on kitkat while others are running marshmallow is up to you. You don't need to be a geek and you also don't need adb commands to update. All you need is to download the update.app file or update.zip file, put it in your dload folder and select the local update function. Even an old granny can do that.

  • I have the Huawei Mate 7 (MT7-TL10), it's currently running 4.4.2. I almost upgraded to 5.1.1 but after reading so many folks reporting issues of battery drain, sluggishness, etc. I've decided to just keep on enjoying my phone as-is. I understand that the upgrade process is a bit tricky since you need to use ADB and run the update commands from the console; plus all your data gets scrubbed in the process - if you choose to go this route, backup your photos and such beforehand. My chops are rusty so before you ask for detailed steps, head over to the Google Android Developers site for upgrade instructions. If this sounds unfamiliar, ask a develop friend for some help or you may end up with a bricked phone. I really love the Mate 7 and I'm actually excited to hear about the upcoming Mate 9 later this year :-)

  • i can see my camera pic in tha gallary ..!!!!! help me....sm time is show ....and sm time is not show.....wts happened.....i dont no......

  • So what is your point??

  • How can I upgrade my huawei mate 7 Android to 5.1.1 .my firmware B130 please any one help me.I became so disappoinetd

  • Huawei has to improve the display quality

  • I have had this phone for the past 9months and its absolutely amazing...the battery last all day long and the space is good and the pictures are amazing though sometimes it doesn't focus well. My phone fell in a bucket of water and it turned off, I freaked out but after a while it turned back on and it was actually faster than before. I honeslty love this phone.

  • I've had this phone for 10months and I would give it 8/10 overall performance. The primary camera works perfectly fine except for the lack of optical stabilization, and also for some reason the photo lacks sharpness, but then it works perfectly fine for an everyday usage. The secondary cam though is horrible, it works fine outdoor but not indoor/dark or shaded areas. Also there are times when you answer a phone call, the person on the other line wont hear you, what i noticed was if i let it ring for like 2-3 sec before answering the call it would work just fine. Overall this phone is worth your money.

  • HI I have MATE 7 TL10 android lollipop b326 upgrade to marshmallow b511 but is very bad for Example is not Privacy protection and Ability Hide the navigation bar and Ability Knock on for this reason now I want downgrade to lollipop or Kit Kat please help me

  • consider getting your earpiece speaker checked out. it happens when the connection to the earpiece speaker is broken.

  • TOTALLY agree! I had both an iPhone 6 Plus and this phone at the same time. I sold the iPhone 6 plus. I lOVE their software. Samsung's software is horrible and keeps me away form them. This phone is the perfect combination of Samsung and Apple, taking the best of both. Design is AWESOME too. I will be getting the Mate 8 when it's avail in Uganda.

  • Try consider Samsung A9

  • This is the best phone I have ever had.It is better than Samsung which is overpriced.I have it for one year almost.Battery is perfect and phone is super fast.This is the only phone I have nothing negative to tell till now.

  • During a call, i can hear the person on the other line but they can't hear me. If i use the loud speaker mode or connect a head phone they will be able to hear me then. I already tried to restart the phone and even tried to reset it but still don't work. I wonder because I never dropped it and the phone is just a year old. So please help me. Thank you and I look forward to the help you can give.

  • I do use HUAWEI MT7-TL10_9409. In my often alarm skips without ringing. I don't know why, it doesn't rings but some time response is ok and seems no problem. There is option of selection of additional alarms on different times, but it absolutely doesn't work. Requested to help me in this regard. Kind regards.

  • Once it happen in my honor 4x. Bring back to the shop and reformat or try update to lastest version. I fit my problem in the shop cos it still under warranty.

  • I have the same problem with the contacts , call logs, messages all disappearing for some time.

  • M.huawei.com-support-download-mt7 l09(std) or mt7 l10(prem). Unzip file-copy dload to sd card use local update(dont forget to backup everythings). Note: after update you must factory reset once to make up everthing and get you internal momery back cos after update you got like 3 gb momery only. Enjoy

  • M.huawei.com - support - download. mine is mt7-l09 version b329 andriod-5.1.1 emui-3.1 and there is other version for mt7-l10. Download file unzip it and copy dload to sd card then manual update.from sd card. Note after update you must factory reset if not internal momery will run low enjoy

  • how i can upload new android ??

  • Does this phone work with wind mobile? Lte 10 version the gold one? Cuz mine is u locked and can't get it to work other than wind away zone.. Can any one give me an idea what to do or should i just change phone carriers or sell this beast

  • you can actually used the memory card slot for your sim 2

  • i don t know how to update the android

  • just remove the memory card and then keep pressing the power switch, then it has to be ok.

  • You guys are the cause of your own problems. There is absolutely no reason to update to lollipop or marshmallow on this phone. Name me one significant Android improvement??? (Many websites still slightly stutter during scrolling and still have a slight lag during scrolling even on lollipop 5.1 , no matter whether it.s nexus interface or other ) Mate 7 runs very fast and smooth on pre-installed kitkat system! Mate 7 is perfect. Stop with this upgrade thing!

  • I was having the same problem. It can not be repaired. The booloader is now locked. The only solution is to re-write its Operating System. Which Huawei Support Centre guys refused to do.

  • just keep pressing the power off switch for 2 minute. it will be ok.

  • Please help i upgraeds my unit into marsmalow version. And now my phone is not working and i can even open it. It stucked in logo only. I am in UAE

  • Hai dear,I am also having same problem which you already faced,so did you got any solution for that?,please can you help me....

  • Marshmallow drains battery very fast.

  • My Huawei mate7 sim reader did not anymore could anyone help please

  • Go check xda developers for that info, there are some people having same issues so it could be helpfull for you

  • Sorry but your comment is a bit funny. I am in West Africa (Nigeria) precisely and am already running Marshmallow. You know you don't have to wait for Huawei till they deliver updates to your region. You can download updates from other regions and flash easily. Just use the local update function. It's not rocket science.

  • This isn't.exactly true. Huawei wasted time on lollipop but the fault was from Google. They built a buggy OS. My Mate 7 is already running Marshmallow and am sure not too many OEMs can boast of that.

  • I have been using this mobile for about 5 months now I got no problem with it. The only thing people should complain is about update huawei are slow in updating their davice apart from that my mate7 works very well

  • Hello everyone new to this site.. Question.. Does the Huawei ascend mate 7 L10 version the gold one work with wind mobile? I checked the frequency and it does. My phone is unlocked and even bought the unlock codes to see if it unlocks for wind.. And didn't.. Not sure if it's because i live in canada or what lol. Can anyone offer me suggestions? I even switched to 3g auto just in case the lte 4g didn't work but no matter it gets nothing..

  • I can't call anybody during updating of contact that's automatically happen and take several minutes to complete the updating. Need some help in stoping this automatic update.

  • One sim.

  • how to update my ascend mate 7 version 4.4.2 to latest version

  • When I updated my phone to Android m malfunction. Now how can return to the previous state. Android 5.1.1 to Android I wanted to build 329 m upgraded. My phone is constantly reset. help me

  • happy to here your experience with marshmallow but those of in Ghana or west Africa are yet to get even lollipop update before thinking of marshmallow. this is heartbreaking, still stuck with kit Kat, Huawei is gradually losing their customers in Africa, A lot of my friends has given up and buy other brands where there is a timely updates, Am also thinking of getting rid of Huawei very soon if the update didn't come soon. Huawei be smart and lead the market in Africa, a word to a wise is ........

  • Try transferring the SIM card to another phone. If you have the same problem, then it probably is a SIM or Network problem. Have your SIM/Network provider replace your SIM or file a complaint with poor service from your network. If after transferring the SIM card to another phone, everything becomes 100% OK, then your Mate 7 phone is the problem. Try to check for damage on the microphone or if something or some dirt is covering it. If everything seems clean and still nobody can hear you during a call, your last option is to do a FACTORY RESET. Backup your contacts and other data before a factory reset. If a factory reset does not solve the problem, bring your phone to a service center for hardware checkup or software reinstallation/update.

  • The Mate 7 is a good asset. But in the last few weeks when I call, people do not hear me, yet this is a basic function. I tried recording but the microphone does not pick. This phone never dropped or inserted in water. What could be the problem? How to solve it? Thanks.

  • HUAWEI MT7-L09 supported one sim or dual sim?

  • Sorry got this one wrong: ----- Bug #3: Screen casting via Wifi direct no longer works (used to work with KitKat and Lollipop). Huawei will likely fix it in final official Marshmallow release. ---- Screen casting via Wifi direct WORKS PERFECTLY in marshmallow beta! Somehow, I thought screencasting via Wifi Direct didn't work anymore because the update from KitKat to Lollipop to Marshmallow beta inadvertently turned off the Wifi Direct option. (I enabled it using: Settings -> Display -> Wireless Display -> Menu -> Wireless display (I tapped checkbox to enable). Marshmallow beta is really great. Still no major bugs or crashes or battery drain after about a week of use! I'm very satisfied even if it is still beta software... Looking forward to the official marshmallow release. (So far, after about a week of use, I only noticed two minor bugs: Bug 1: 'camera effects' show scrambled preview but does not affect final picture quality or camera function in any way. Bug 2: Apps cannot display the date on the status bar. I have an app from playstore (Date on status bar) which I like to always display the date on the status bar so anywhere on my phone I don't have to pull down to status bar to see the date. I'm never going back to KitKat or Lollipop even if the downgrade package is released. Marshmallow just have so many features I can't give up --- Playstore purchase through fingerprint; LTE-only option in the standard menu; ability to reduce the size of the status bar and navigation bar; ability to turn your screen to black and white mode and even negative or various color blind options!, wifi direct, fluid/smooth lovely marshmallow material design interface, lots of new camera features, etc. not available in either KitKat and/or Lollipop. Marshmallow beta really is that good! Much better than the final official Lollipop ever was (yes, even better than your original Kitkat software!) Good work Huawei! Looking forward to your final Marshmallow release soon! I can hardly wait... I'm sure it will even be a much more refined software with the bugs eliminated!

  • It's still awesome

  • Cant download anything frm playstore regrating y i bought it!!!

  • Factory reset...

  • Hello, guys my mate 7 was working perfectly and suddenly the mic won't work even with the earphones on.... Idk what to do and it was never dropped or dropped in water, anyone knows how to solve this issue? Thanks

  • thanks for experience marshmallow , you told us all things about the new beta version, god bless you 👍

  • When I make a call the proximate sensor doesn't work and the screen light is still on,what can I do ?

  • It's octa-core to quad-core

  • Guys! I have an update from B143 to B150..model # MT7-L09..please help!

  • does it support otg cable or no?

  • Sorry, I got this one wrong: However, if you mean support for apps that control the color of the led light and the blinking rate, (Ex. Light Manager app, Light Flow app, etc.) then no, Mate 7 does not have the LED hardware to support those apps. Nexus devices however support customizable LED colors and blinking rates dictated by LED controlling apps. ------------ I can confirm the Mate 7 TL10 with marshmallow beta DOES support at least the Light Flow app. You can customize the LED colors and blinking rate on the Mate 7 depending on what notification it is the you received (new email, new text, etc.) by downloading the Light Flow app from Playstore. Previously I thought it only worked on Nexus devices. I can confirm now it does work on Mate 7 TL10 (I'm on marshmallow beta.)

  • However, if you mean support for apps that control the color of the led light and the blinking rate, (Ex. Light Manager app, Light Flow app, etc.) then no, Mate 7 does not have the LED hardware to support those apps. Nexus devices however support customizable LED colors and blinking rates dictated by LED controlling apps.

  • You mean blinking led light when new text message is received? Yes, LED light slowly blinks with 'green' light when there is a new text message. Yes, it supports OTG cable and USB thumb drives (FAT32). By 'it' I mean Mate 7 TL10 under marshmallow beta. --------------- Noticed another bug for marshmallow beta: Bug #3: Screen casting via Wifi direct no longer works (used to work with KitKat and Lollipop). Huawei will likely fix it in final official Marshmallow release.

  • does it have led notification or no? does it support otg cable or no? please answer thanks

  • no

  • Good News! Marshmallow beta for Mate 7 TL10 now available! Marshmallow beta have many better features than Final Official Lollipop! - you can now use fingerprint to purchase movies, games, music, apps and books on Google Playstore in marshmallow! No more entering password everytime! hurray! - knuckle/gesture shortcuts! although I don't use it much since nova launcher prime gestures are easier to use and better! - smoother, more fluid, faster interface! Much smoother, more fluid and vastly better than lollipop and even better than Kitkat! - can resize not only font size but also has 'view modes' (small, medium, large) to reduce thickness of notification bar and navigation bar! I like being to reduce the size/thickness of the navigation bar and notification bar to maximize reading space! - can turn off or on specific permissions for each app! (location, storage, etc.), so no more unnecessary permissions from apps asking too many permissions! - fixed all stagefright vulnerabilities and all other prior android vulnerabilities! - based on Android 6.0 having security patch: 1 January 2016! Now that is similar to latest security patch on recent Nexus devices! Even current flagship Samsung devices still don't have them! - looks like iOS and Android with cool material design animations! I never liked iOS but the way it is implemented in marshmallow beta is very nice! Nicer than either iOS alone or stock android alone. Emui 4.0 took the best of iOS and android and combined them! - Now has 'LTE only' network mode!!! This is what I HATED most about the official Lollipop update! It doesn't have the 'LTE only' option. With marshmallow beta, we now have five network/data choices/options: 1.LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto, 2.WCDMA/GSM auto 3. LTE only - NEW!!! (not present in Kitkat or Lollipop, but accessible in Kitkat through its unlocked hidden android menu.) 4. WCDMA only 5. GSM only! For those on KitKat (B120, B130, etc.), follow these steps if you have the mate7 TL10 dual SIM version: 1. Download and install Lollipop C900B326 first: Warning: For Mate 7 TL10 dual SIM version only running official Kitkat: (NOT ROOTED!) 2. Update to Marshmallow beta C185B511 through local update: Download Marshmallow beta here: Choose the TL10 version since you have a TL10 phone! Warning: Install only on Lollipop B326! Other Lollipop versions (B324, B329, etc.) will brick your phone! Warning 2: No way to downgrade back to Lollipop or to Kitkat once Marshmallow beta is installed! You have to wait for FINAL, OFFICIAL marshmallow OTA which will take some more months (or possibly never arrive!). Warning 3: Marshmallow beta has minor bugs being a beta software! So far, I haven't found major bugs, but it could be different for others. Bug 1: 'camera effects' show scrambled preview but does not affect final picture quality or camera function in any way. Bug 2: Apps cannot display the date on the status bar. I have an app from playstore (Date on status bar) which I like to always display the date on the status bar so anywhere on my phone I don't have to pull down to status bar to see the date. Other than those two, I have not experienced any other bugs, major or minor. It's almost as good as an official release (doesn't crash at all like most beta software)! However, I CANNOT GUARANTEE there will be no other bugs! BE WARNED!

  • I love this phone. Mine recently fell in a pool of water due to a faulty cover so I dried it out and there was only a small screen issue. But then as I was waiting for a replacement cover, it fell on our tiles and the screen fully cracked. So I got an LG G4 instead but I'm already missing it. It was so awesome - the only draw back I could find were the software updates.

  • From which version you start upgrate? do you have the link for downloading lolipop?

  • Make sure your scaner is clean so as your finger, also it may not work if your finger is wet. Other than that it works fine so if dont its probably something wrong whit it

  • Hi all, after many attempts, I let the phone battery completely discharge and 100% recharche again, after that re-flash the same ROM and factory reset, just for sure, and now is all OK. I dont know which of the above action helped, but now the phone works OK, except the signal drop...

  • Hi, I bought this phone some two weeks ago. The fingerprint scanner worked during the first hour of operation and that not very convincingly. After that it wouldn't want to work any more. So I switched It off. I read everywhere how good the scanner is! Could mine be broken so soon? What could I have done wrong? Thankful for every piece of advice. Greetings. Alexander

  • Superb phone

  • Daz, here is a link: 7 Standard(MT7-L09)&key0=Mobile Phones&key1=Smartphones&key2=Jazz-L09 open it and download it to youre sd card and open it with huawei update app. after this is installed you can do the update to B331. just how i have it.. Thadeep

  • Daz Vale, You have to update to bouild B331 then you don't have this problem. because youre still in a beta version of Lollipop 5.1.1. After the update youre Phone works normal and you can do hard reset. cheers, Thadeep

  • I am totally disappointed with Huawei. I have Mate 7 b120 4.2. I am sure they will not update to 5. Also my phone stopped working, it works inly on mic ON. I read that it is a manufacturing fault. The Huawei lab declined my request to fix it. I am through with Huawei. It is really a bad company.

  • I used a lot of different smartphones in past and my objective opinion is following, this phone is almost perfect, (battery, no heat problems even with running few apps in same moment or play games, very good quality of product, very good care of user, performance is so high) there is only one thing why this phone is almost perfect, not perfect... -->android ( I think this system will never be perfect ) but I still think that this phone is better than Iphone 6s.

  • Dear friends! I bought this phone yesterday .HERE is my opinion : Good : 1. 1.5 day battery backup with 3g,WiFi,browsing,music,video,Apps download,youtube randomly . 2.No heat problem. 3.Camera quality very good. 4.speed and touch very good. 5. Touch I'd and sensitivity good. 6. Interface very good after lollipop update manually . Bad : 1. Size(6") is big from other smartphone. NOTE: No other problem.(Guaranty) This is my 1st use Huawei phone. my filling is - its a great Gadget.

  • I'm using mate 7,battery lasting power is super .it can last u for a day with YouTube n Google,no problem.screen clarity is Gd ,they.have spec ppi density of 368

  • Go with A9

  • yes .. that's right

  • iam going to buy a new mobile and iam still comparing between huawei ascend mate 7 and Htc one A9 and huawei mate s. Please advice

  • broo...can u plz tel me that it z dual sim too in 2gb ram version . i heard that in 2gb it z single sim and one msd slot...reply at.... [email protected]

  • This phone is a blessing in disguise we have all talked about its long lasting battery i have heavy wi-fi and 3G usage and this phone hangs in there, it does take its time to recharge but that's why we have nights right to recharge our phones, its sleek body design is eye catching with build quality at par with iphone a notch up from Samsung, people with iphones and Samsung will surely turn their heads and check this beauty out. In short its a perfect all rounder i have been using a 2nd hand set for a month now and its as good as new i would advice all tech lovers to give mate 7 a go i am already looking forward towards Mate 8.

  • I have huawei ascend mate 7 gold edition, the one with 3gb Ram the problem is that since I updated to lollipop, when i receive facebook notifications and I try to open it from the notifications bar, it doesn't open the notification just disappear after i tab on it and the application doesn't open any help would be really appreciated, and thanks in advance.

  • I'm gonna get this phone soon! Very excited!

  • For more than one year of experience, it's the best

  • is battery good on this phone i am not havy user i dont play games and turn off wifi everythime when i am not on twitter or facebook

  • Iupdate to lollipop 5.1.1 b324 but i cant perform hard reset or reset its say reset failed, also cant find 5 x 5 arrangement.what should i do

  • If you agree that it should be improved, it should be easier for data entry.

  • I think an excellent phone, took a few months of use and am very happy. Comfortable display, good battery, excellent fingerprint reader. I appreciate that brings FM Radio is pretty used, well that handsfree button change the channel but lacks volume control and record programs. The general telephone interface should be improved, it is very basic. I have only one complaint, I am in Colombia and we have not received the update to Lollipop - Marshmallow, our model is MT7-L09V100R001C00B120SP04. I just hope they do not forget to customers who invest in the Huawei brand. By forgetting the customer leaves other brands like LG.

  • download that from website huawie which i put link that to computer then transfer to microsd then update it

  • yes you can just download that to computer then transfer to microsd then update that

  • Go for mate 7. It has an affordable price!! Well actually it depends on you!! If you are willing to spend a fortune-like amount on the mate s, then go for it. If u r looking for a similar quality phone for a cheaper price, then go for the mate 7!!

  • how can i update my mt7-l09. to emui 3.1 there is no ota update

  • Thank you Friends but u guys didn't give the best pls give me the idea to buy the best mobile from mate s lg g 4 mate 7 ether waiting for mate 8 is better ?? Pls give ur opinion for only one mobile pls thanks

  • Please let me knew when will update to marshmallow release for mate 7

  • I'm terms of performance, both the G4 and the Mate 7 are rock solid in the best experience. I have had both. Both of them are beautiful devices that can satisfy easily any exigent user. The thing to consider tough is the size of the Mate 7. It's big, but not bad looking, that's not the problem, the main detail on that is that it looks weird and feels a little uncomfortable in the pocket! Haha If you use a purse or bag, we'll, that can help if you're a girl. If you're a rather tall guy, then it should be OK. Another detail with the Mate 7 is its stock launcher. It's very nice and buttery smooth, but it can be quite a task to organize it and keep it organized. I would suggest that you use another launcher such as Nova or TSF. Anyway, my ranking and advice would be the G4, Mate 7 and Mate S.

  • Hello. If you are tall guy or girl then I would advice the less expensive Mate 7 which is an overall winner bet. But if your rather small, get the LG G4, it's just the right size for most people, and if the money is not a problem, the G4 is the best you can buy, in your options. I would suggest the red colored leather back. The Mate S can be beautiful too, but if you want the best camera, the G4 is the best.

  • which phone is better mate 7 or mate s lg g4 i want a good camera and good battery life and good performance pls give me some advise thought your experiences im waiting because still im confused i dont know which one i should buy pls help me thanks

  • Thank you so much!! Btw, will the app be hidden or it will be shown??? Anyways it doesn't matter, though. Thx again!!!

  • Thank you so much!! Btw, will the app be hidden or it will be shown??? Anyways it doesn't matter, though. Thx again!!!

  • yes it has. you can set a password or a fingerprint for each application you don't want anybody to reach to

  • One question......does the huawei mate 7 have a " hide app" option??? Coz sometimes I wouldn't want anyone to open my insta, or twitter, or photos or other apps. Thx!!

  • Thank you so much for your help. I will be getting my huawei mate 7 tomorrow. It will pretty much become my bae!! Lol!! I am soo grateful for ur help. Have a great day!! ­!

  • I have a serious problem with the contacts, suddenly the contacts and dialled no.s do not work with a blank screen and I have to restart the phone, can any one tell me how to solve?????

  • Hello, The beteria can handle a whole day? LTE with two cards at once ? To charge is fast ?

  • I am really enjoying my new Mate7 but one thing I find frustrating is having only one option to scroll through numbers (cannot type in numbers), e.g. hours or minutes and especially big numbers like setting my data limit! I get super impatient having to scroll through hundreds or literally 1000s of digits to increase my data limit...! Can't it have the alternative to also simply type numbers in?

  • I have a very serious issue with this phone hanging all the time especially when trying to open phone contact, message or call record/dialer . . .all it shows is a blank white page for several minutes ! ! !

  • i live in india.. Can i update using this package ??

  • friends .is possible to install custom roms in huawei mate 7 if yes can u suggest some sites for the roms thank you

  • I know what having an old phone means : slow connection and people bragging about their new phones. I would suggest huawei mate 7 since it is a flagship phone that I recommend. I have one myself at it's my bae! Jk! It's awesome and u need to buy it. Huawei p8 is cheaper but not as gud quality as the mate 7. I hope I helped!

  • Good day Mate 7 users, Currently I am using MATE 7 gold (3g ram, EMUI 3.0) . I received a notice to upgrade my version from MT7-TL10V100R001C00B120SP04 (current) to MT7-TL10_Channel_MT7-TL10V100R001C00B130 (new) . May I kindly ask if this version is OK to update?

Appreciate your comment and thanks in advance.

  • How I can update lolipop..???

  • I have iPhone 4 right now and it's pretty old and slow. I was thinking of upgrading since everyone in my class has a new phone like iPhone 6s etc. ( I am in grade 8 if u were wondering ) I like many phones but they are very expensive; IPhone 6s is over 2000 dhs and samsung galaxy s6 edge is over 4000 dhs. I came across this phone which is the mate 7. It is in a reasonable price but I also saw a newer phone which is the huawei p8. Both of these phones are awesome but I was wondering which one to get. I am a person who is looking for a big screen. I like taking photos of everything interesting and I am a person who watches a lot of YouTube videos. I don't need a very professional phone coz these are my needs. I also like texting. Which would u suggest for my needs; huawei p8 or huawei mate 7?? Plz reply!!

  • Unfortunately I adjust the notifications setting many time but the E. Mail notifications still not coming unless I open E.mail app.

  • It is Good device but there are some defect with note bar that is some apps like E.mail not appear on bar nor sound unless I open the E.mail application.pls, who knows the solution , thanks

  • I love this phone, Battery life is amazing. Screen is just on right proportion for me. I don't need a "overpower" screen ppi that kills battery. Fingerprint sensor is pretty accurate. Update to b324, it came with EMUI 3.1 and everything seems work fine to me, including knuckle screen capture. One that not works is if you got FB notif, and you tap it from notif bar, it wont open the app. Just for FB app. Anyone have same issue?

  • I have a Mate 7 Gold Edition 32GB Dual Sim/3GB Ram [MT7-TL10V100R001C00B130] - Malaysia Version Remember to Backup first no matter what! [Backing up on your phone takes 5 mins] Just download B324 Malaysia Version Update.App [1.19GB] and put into Internal Storage. After thatm head to Huawei Updater app and just click on menu and "local update", you will find the file and just click install. 1. Installation will take around 2 mins. [Do not press power key] 2. It will then reboot into Huawei Start-up logo. [Don't panic, it takes up to 1 min to jump into next screen] 3. You will see "android is upgrading pop-up, optimizing apps. [This process take up to 10 mins depending on the number of apps you have in your phone - I have 152 apps] 4. After that, it will update your data base, then finishing boot! Your phone restarts with EMUI 3.1

  • I used to have this issue and after deep investigation I found that happned due to smart cover option :)

  • Those are good news. Thank you. I think my Mate 7 is getting better at battery life. Just got something near to 6 hours of screen on time. This is a great device. BTW, is there a newer build than B324? I'm quite sure Huawei will continue to fix and polish 5.1.1 for the Mate 7. Is there a sure confirmation for Android 6 for the Mate 7? Thanks again.

  • Go to settings and protected apps and allow viber. After that go to settings again and manage notifications and allow viber again that is finish my friend. I am using mate 7 since 7 month and wait for mate 8

  • I am using B324 and i get around 7~8 hours sot. Something is wrong with your device did u hard reset it after installing B324? Also its mandatory to install B324 on top B137 or B127 not on beta builds.Try rolling back to last stable kitkat and upgrade it again!

  • Hello good Mate 7 users. How many hours of screen on time are you getting in 5.1.1 B324? My unit gets only 3.5 hours of screen time until 8% then I have to connect it to the charger. How is yours doing it this? I remember it previous build B317 it got up to 8.1 hours of screen on time. Please reply to check if this is something that has to do with the build, which is the most probable. If so I think I'll go back to B317. I await your responses. Thank you all.

  • OTA update for Lollipop in middle east ? Will it be available anytime soon ??!

  • You probably denied notification to be shown on notification panel the first time they appeared for each app ... if that was the case then you need to go to settings>Notification manager>change values to "Allow" for apps which were restricted ... gd luck !

  • anybody experienceing the same problem? im using huawei silver mt7-tl10v whenever i put 4g sim card in my slot 1 the phone always showing procces.android error anyone know how to solve this ?

  • Dont have solution yet, hopefully they will fix the Wifi Vs.Bluetooth problem on OTA update..

  • I had the same problem with the gold version (3g ram) ie MT7 -TL10. I bought it just a mth ago and had to battle the delayed contact update issue until yesterday when i did a hard reset. Steps: Switch off the phone, press the volume up and power bottons at the same time and wait for the android instructions, use the vol down botton to move to reset/wipe fone data and select the option by pressing the power botton once. reboot your fone after this. your fone would have hard reset to default factory mode and hopefully solved the bug (it worked for me!)

  • I also have that Bluetooth vs Wifi problem with my Android 5.1.1. Any solutions?

  • My Mate 7 is a good machine but am having some issues with it now. It hangs a lot; particularly when I suddenly want to view contacts or call logs. I don't know what to do. Pls help!!! Am really enjoying the phone but this lagging is giving me serious probs. Help

  • you can update. even myself updated from B128 to B324.

  • Hi, please I want to buy one of this phone,can anyone who has been using this phone advice me to or not to buy this phone? Thanks in advance

  • i have Huawei ascend mate 7 gold.now i m in Pakistan what's the process to update lollipop version?

  • Huawei Ascend Mate 7 Gold Edition (MT7-TL10) has also been updated to B313 Android 5.1.1 Lollipop beta firmware. You can download this updateÂ’s official OTA Zip file via the direct download link provided below.

  • Any update lollipop until now we cannot update to lollipop as of November 2015

  • a classy phablet with superb specification and not so expensive compare to leading brands today :)

  • And dual sim is full active ?

  • And do you like this phone ? Can you tell something about it ? some review :)

  • Yes, slot 1 & 2 can receive incoming/ outgoing call or text. It will allow you to choose which slot to call or send text.

  • Hi rsg2, Is it official firmware? It seems beta Lollipop. Can you provide download links? Thanks.

  • But you don't have any problems while calling on both sims ?

  • Slot 1 is okey for micro sim, LTE or not. Slot 2 is for nano sim or micro sd card only. The slot 2 is not fitted for micro sim, nano sim is placed horizontally in the middle with slot properly in place for nano. But I have not tried LTE nano sim, mine are both working, globe micro sim on slot 1 with 4G icon (placed on upper left) and smart nano sim on slot 2 with 2G icon. Go to setting/dusl card management and edit the information. It should work, goodluck!!

  • You have to search & download the compatible upgrade version of your market build number. Place the sd card in slot 2, open a new folder named 'dload' (omit single apostrophe) in the root directory of sd card, then copy the downloaded update zip file to 'dload'. Go to setting/updater/menu and press local update. Your unit will verify the file and will auto reset and update your apps. Everything will be okey during the upgrade except if the "update.zip" is not compatible with your phone version. You can do this at your own risk which I experienced also.

  • How? I can't seem to update my phone . i followed the instructions but still it won't update

  • Guys please tell me, does this phone have problems with SIM 2 (problems with connection etc.) because I want to use two sim cards to call ? I would like to buy it. Please tell me. TY

  • I was able to update my Huawei Ascend Mate 7 32 GB amber gold edition from MT7-TL10C900B128 to MT7-TL10C900B313 (ver. 5.1.1). Browsing makes faster and now has LTE only network mode out of (5) preferred network selection. Note the similarity of market build number except the last three digits. EMUI is upgraded too to ver. 3.1 with changes in user interface.

  • Hi Johnykk, can you please check if you can still connect to wifi/ or connection will become weak whenever you are also connected to a Bluetooth device? Ex. Bluetooth speaker. Thanks

  • Hello guys! I updated to 5.1.1. Overall performance is much smoother, no more stutter while scrolling web pages and watching high-quality videos, I guess it is because of ART java VM. UI looks a bit more polished. My Antutu benchmark score increased from average of 44500 to 46900. I am very happy with this update. Huawei Ascend Mate7 got much better specs than any other in this series.

  • Does it works for you?

  • Pls disregard, resolved already!!

  • my rate is 7 /10 need better camera

  • Hi friends , after upgrading to lollipop i faced this problem there is no option for choosing ringtones for the two SIM cards only one option which already acts for the first SIM and the other one rings with Huawei ringtone which there is no option to change it. it kills me , i tried every thing but no result. i need your help pls.

  • Can I upgrade MT7-TL10 with build number C00B128 to C900B324 android 5.1.1? I got an info that "make sure your device has C900 market number and has its stock recovery intact. You wonÂ’t be able to install this through any custom recovery". Does it mean that the unit should have C900 build number in order to be compatible with C900B324 upgrade? Thanks.. .

  • it's a nice phone ,i use it ,dnt give bad comment

  • Yes..precisely..trust me if ure going to get a phone anytime now..dont think further..just grab Oppo R7 plus...specs wise just better than huawei ascend mate 7...just got for my wife a few days back..simply a elegant and sexy fone in all aspects...be it screen...clarity...performance..looks...etc..and­ also charging capabilities...damn fast..i should say...and b4 ending...would like to mention that i myself will be getting Oppo R7 plus...Cheers...

  • Lollipop is here, its easy to update, just download the file from the link given by gsmarena, put the dload folder in the root directory of sd card, do a local update in the settings, wait for the updateto finish, and do a reset using power+up volume. That's how i updated using the official lollipop release. Im running tl10 version from philippines. Wifi is great, ui is better, playing coc is a great experience. The problem with mate 7 ever since is the charging time... If don't have this phone yet and wanted to get this, i would much rather recommend you buy oppo r7 plus due to its fast charging technology, 64 bit architecture, excellent camera, oled display...

  • Hello guys! I updated to 5.1.1. Overall performance is much smoother, no more stutter while scroling webpages and watching high quality videos, I guess it is because of ART java VM. UI looks a bit more polished. My Antutu benchmark score increased from average of 44500 to 46900. I am very happy with this update. HOW I DID IT: Conect Huawei to PC. Download update from Huawei support Malaisya region to PC, DON'T extract or unzip it, just get into the folder and copy "dload" folder to the internal memory of the phone "download folder", or to your sd card. Then go to setings, sisthem update, and choose to update localy. Thats it.

  • there is something probably wrong with your charger, i faced this problem on my s3. if that doesn't work then maybe your charging port is damaged.

  • What is the quality of music on headset comoared to sony xperia?

  • Currently what is ur software version... 4.4.2 isn't it? U can directly upgrade to 5.1.1. U can download the zip file from www.carbontesla.com and update it locally I did the same and now using lollipop 5.1.1 on my mate 7 MT7-TL10. Go to setting--updater--menu--local update. There isn't any loss to the device if u upgrade ur s/w version from kitkat to lollipop.

  • I have been using mate 7 for six months.. I have never faced any issues.. but since last three days my charger is charging very slowly... its really annoying me... its taking 2 hours to charge 10% .. Please anyone advise why this is happening?

  • I'm really curious whether mate 7 already have stable update for lollipop in my country Malaysia? Oppo R7 plus or Mate 7?? OMG I'M REALLY CONFUSED TO CHOOSE..

  • david, The accompanying word document (when you download the C900B324 zip file from Huawei's site and extract it) states the following KitKat firmwares for model TL10 can be upgraded to C900B324: 1) C00B130, 2) C00B120SP04 and 3)C900B312. You just do a local update using your sd card. All instructions/procedures on how to do the update are found in the C900B324 zip file to be downloaded).

  • Hi Don, Thanks for your Info. Just want to ask you was there any Build No. specified for upgrading And what is the flashing method to be used for upgrading.

  • yes top right corner

  • Amazing device by huawei also its upgradable to android 6 aka marshmallow!

  • Sure it has

  • I have had the phone for around 6 months. Never had heating problems.

  • Huawei does it right and better

  • doesHuawei Ascend mate 7 has light notification ?

  • Bro mate 7 heating or not

  • Is it advisable to update Mate 7 to lolipop OS manually in SAUDI ARABIA. If updated manually any known complicaiton with mobile????

  • The only reason i'm not getting this beast is because of the snail-pace OS updates. Had iPhone 5s and waited for something interesting from other manufactures, well, looks like Steve Jobs is calling me home. Getting the iPhone 6 4gb... Hum

  • Hi I have been a samsung user for many years, but a few weeks ago I brought the Huawei Mate 7. All I can say is what a great device. I was tossing up between the Mate 7 and P8 but the dealer told me for battery life the Mate 7 wins. So I have no regrets buying this device and would recommned it to anyone who wants a goos high end smart phone at a reasonable price Cheers

  • Hello everyone could you plz advise whether to get the mate 7 or p8 I am not happy with Samsung hardware unless I get something more expensive to match huwaei's build appreciate it

  • P8. There's barely anything in it. GPU is virtually the same as is the screen resolution but the clock speeds for the P8's processor is higher and that's all that really comes into it. The only thing that really comes into it is screen size VS pixel density after that.

  • Hello huawei mate7-L09 users.i try the lollipop b324 recently.not bad but hidden the 4G LTE option in network settings and is so sadly news for all users.but im after see that send mail to huawei support and then i recieve mail.that say Wait to ota update for the support 4G of your operator.

  • I want to know whats better p8 or mate 7 The best For games ?

  • Love this phone. I'v been using HTC due to its consistency but due to affordability went for the Mate 7 instead of the HTC M9 So far, I'm impressed

  • can i use this upgrade for my MT7-TL00? what mate 7 do you have?

  • Its hardly expected, maybe some beta or something like that but official...there is still no L ota, so i dont believe M or more will come as well

  • If you find yourself desiring a fingerprint sensor, significantly larger screen, or dual sim slots then get the Mate as all these features cannot be found on the Z2. But if you prefer a higher build quality, more manageable screen size, and probably similar battery performance despite its much smaller battery then go with the Z2.

  • Buy the mate 7 huawei is the best

  • Hi guys can you help me please? I want to upgrade from galaxy s2 but I'm still confused between mate (16GB version) or Xperia z2 I want to buy a new one this week Can I have a quick response?

  • Does the Huawei ascend mate 7 get updates of the latest androids in the next few years? Like as in mashmallow and the next android?

  • ota update?? when??

  • I mean 5.1.1 (not 5.5.1).

  • Successfully updated my Mate 7 to official Lollipop 5.5.1 manually. The new camera software is excellent. I do not think all countries will receive the OTA update to Lollipop so I have to download thpe software and manually install rather than wait for the OTA that will never come. If anybody wants to update to Lollipop right away, go directly to Huawei's website and download the firmware suitable to your device. For Mate 7 Amber Gold (3GB RAM, dual SIM, model MT7-TL10): For Mate 7 Moonlight Silver/Obsidian Black (2GB RAM, single SIM, model MT7-L09)

  • Hi, I updated it to 5.1.1, EMUI 3.1 and its running smooth.. Added some features on camera like Super night and manual brightness on focus.. Got 47,200+ in Antutu and I'm satisfied for this upgrade.

  • please help me this link error ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved or error Server not found

  • Plz advice ,, Can I upgrade my Mate 7 to Lollipop using the package found on the Chinese support page which holds the version B351? or should I wait untill my phone promotes for the upgrade automatically ?! By the way , when this upgrade will be broadcasted to all phones ? since I hesitate about the manual upgrade thing ... nothing guaranteed ! Thanks.

  • For those who upgraded to the OFFICIAL lollipop 5.1.1 (MT7-TL10_Firmware_C900B324_Android 5.1.1_EMUI 3.1) and regretted it because they can no longer set their dual sim phones to '4G LTE only' via Android's hidden 'advanced network settings' menu, here's how to go back to KitKat and regain this feature (which was disabled/locked by Huawei in Lollipop): WARNING: BACKUP ALL IMPORTANT FILES BEFORE PERFORMING THIS OPERATION. ALL APPS, CONTACTS, MESSAGES, PHOTOS, VIDEOS, FILES, etc. ---EVERYTHING WILL BE ERASED. (Like buying a new phone.) ALSO, these only work for those who have the TL10/Gold version of Mate 7 (3GB RAM, dual SIM), and running official Lollipop 5.1.1 (C900B324) EMUI 3.1: REVERTING BACK TO KITKAT (FROM LOLLIPOP): Step 1. Download and Install 'Jazz-TL10 V100R001C900B308 Downgrade Package' from Huawei's Malaysia Website. (Copy 'UPDATE.APP' to 'dload' folder on your SD card, then do 'Local Upgrade' Download Link: Step 2: After successfully installing downgrade patch in step 1, erase 'UPDATE.APP' in the 'dload' folder of your SD card and replace it with the 'UPDATE.APP' from the LATEST official 4.4.2 KitKat firmware [Huawei Mate 7 (MT7-TL10) Firmware V100R001C00B130_Android 4.4.2_EMUI 3.0], which can be downloaded from Huawei's Malaysia website. Download Link: Install the official KitKat firmware as in Step 1 (do 'Local Upgrade'). You will be able to access again Android's advanced 'hidden 'network settings' menu and now have the '4G LTE only' option back. DISCLAIMER: PLEASE DO NOT BLAME ME IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE BY DOING THIS. IT SUCCEEDED IN MY Mate 7 phone but I cannot guarantee it will succeed in yours. Do at your own risk.

  • As a Chinese brand phone why does it not have a Chinese keyboard?

  • WARNING: Do not upgrade your Mate 7 TL10 (Gold, 3G RAM, dual SIM) to OFFICIAL lollipop 5.1.1 (MT7-TL10_Firmware_C900B324_Android 5.1.1_EMUI 3.1) if you do not want to lose the ability to set data mode/data network to '4G LTE only'. All android phones have a hidden 'network settings' menu where you can set data mode to '4G LTE only' even if it is not visible in the user interface (Mobile Network Settings - Preferred Network Mode). If '4G LTE only' mode is important to you, DO NOT UPDATE TO THIS LOLLIPOP firmware! I made the biggest mistake of updating to Lollipop 5.1.1 (C900B324) from KitKat 4.4.2. After the update, access to the hidden android 'advanced network settings' menu has been denied. Permission to this very important android feature has been removed in the C900B324 Lollipop 5.1.1 firmware. It was present before in KitKat. Now I am left to choose 4 modes only: 1. 'LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto' which keeps switching back and forth between the very fast LTE and very slow WCDMA, even with moderately strong LTE signal (3 bars) 2. 'WCDMA/GSM auto' 3. 'WCDMA only' and 4. 'GSM only' Huawei and Samsung should know that DUAL SIM phone users are not well served by this unnecessary restriction: the locking of android's advanced network modes/settings in dual SIM phones. Dual SIM phone users frequently use one SIM for calls and text (2G/3G auto) only and another SIM for data only ('4G LTE only') to maximize download speed while still not sacrificing ability to receive phone calls on the other SIM. 'LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto' is useful for SINGLE SIM phones only because choosing '4G LTE only' mode from the hidden android menu does not allow one to receive phone calls. Bugs found so far in the official lollipop update: 1: If you choose 'wallpaper changer' apps (a live wallpaper) for your homescreen wallpaper, the translucent title bars in the default 'message/contacts/dialer' app will have a bad irregular color patch (dark irregular shaped color against a white/gray base color). 2. Built in wallpaper changing option does not work/does not function correctly. 3. Many Gestures don't work as intended. Other comments: I hate EMUI 3.1 trying to be more and more like Apple's IOS. EMUI 3.1 looks even closer to IOS than did EMUI 3.0. Why can't Huawei be original or at least, just follow Google's material design if Huawei's designers have run out of design ideas? Material design in my Nexus 7 is way much better: more fluid, more beautiful and futuristic than Apple's IOS or any other Android OEM skin that tries to ape Apple's IOS. I am talking about you Huawei, and Lenovo: Stop aping Apple in your Android skins.

  • I am facing some serious problems, which so far remains un resolved. 1. SMS when received are intimated but when I try to open them I just see a blank screen. At times threads are visible but when get a blank screen when I try to open it. 2. The contact and call list will go blank and will get message that contact list is being updated. After few attempts it is restored. Have done factory reset but with no luck. Again approached a person who did some flushing but the problem has again increased. Any solution plz

  • Awesome phone. no other android phone can match this beast. Go for amber gold model which comes with 3 GB ram. 6 inch display is best in the market. Screen to body ratio is just right and makes it easy to handle. slim metal body gives it a very premium feel. Battery is extremely powerful. My only issue is either you can use 2 sim cards or one sim card and SD card.

  • you have to take care of the apps you are downloading some of them really control the main key of your phones so delete the apps that you dont need, especially antivirus apps like clean master...

  • Had the note4, xperia z1,2. Currently have the Mate7 and I am very impressed. Battery great and graphics not bad, seriously if anybody has anything negative to say about that then they are being pety.

  • I have huawei ascend mate 7 and I still didn't get the lollipop update ? How to get it

  • Please yell me is arabic language will be lost ?

  • If I were you, search for online stores in Saudi and see if they sell any Mate7. Once you find some, check if there's an official Huawei warranty. In that case, it would be the same as the ones you see in malls. In my experience, I bought an Xperia ZL more than 2 years ago. I bought it from an online store and it doesn't have the official Sony warranty, that is why it's almost $100 cheaper compare to malls'. So the question is this: do you care about the official Huawei warranty or not?

  • Frnd I wanted to know that if I will buy this mobile from mall it make a lot of difference in price from buying online

  • Hello, I bought my phone here in the Philippines 2 weeks ago. To help you compare prices, I converted Philippine peso (PHP) to US dollars (USD). I bought this phone (32gb/3gb ram, GOLD) for 24,000 pesos in the mall, converting it to the current exchange rate will be $513.87. This comes with the full package + 1 year warranty from Huawei. Hope this helps!

  • what is better: samsung galaxy a7 or mate 7 ?

  • I just updated my phone. Bought this phone in the Philippines with build number MT7-TL10 B120SP04. So far so good. It's fast. I read on XDA that you need to do a factory reset once you are done with the update.

  • If someone already updated their phone via the Huawei Consumer website, can you please give us an update? Thank you!

  • Get your lollipop version from here and after installation please set the phone language to english united kingdom otherwise you may suffer a keyboard missing issue because this is only europion version and only EU countries language support

  • Pls give me the link of the page

  • Can you please give me the link of the page

  • Which one of these is the best phone ? ( I need a low priced , good cam , good battery , good screen and camera resolution , and good speed . Also with no lags ) Huawei Ascend Mate 7 Lenovo Vibe Shot Sony Xperia Z2 LG G2 HTC M8 Sony Xperia M5

  • Lollipop update for mate 7 is now available get with from official page OTA will be processed soon. Thanks huawei

  • If you are after the battery life then go Mate7. I had this phone for 2 weeks now and so far no issues whatsoever. This phone lasts 1 1/2 days, and for me that's a big fat YES. If your concern is Mate7's low graphics I think it's not going to be a big issue. This is not like we are comparing a game graphics from the 80s versus the 21st century. There is a difference, indeed, but only a little bit. There's a word called 'compromise' and you cannot have everything in a phone... for now at least. Either you sacrifice graphics for battery life or vice versa. When I showed my friends my Mate7, first question that they asked was 'Wow, what a big phone. How long does the battery last?' Rarely do I hear a question 'How good is the graphics or processor?' In my honest opinion, go for Mate7.

  • If they are close in price go with the note 4

  • i cant decide and i've been trying to choose between three huawei phone...but each one has pros and cons...i'm lost between the "Mate7", "P8", and the new "Mate s"...i like the mate7 because it has a massive battery plus it has a wide screen and a fingerprint sensor, however the graphics are a bit low i guess. i also like the P8 because it is looks elegant and nice and the graphics are better than mate7. but it has a low battery life and no fingerprint sensor. concerning the Mate S, its beautiful, nice graphics, nice features, fingerprint sensor. but it has a very low battery concerning it is a big phone(5.5"). and my very main concern is the battery, but i also dont want to loose the other features and stuff...if someone who knows all three can help me that would mean alot..really, like alot, cz i have been lost and fed up for a long time now...thank you :D

  • Good news for huawei users as huawei honor 6 and 6plus got lollipop update today in europe now we are hopefull that mate 7 will also get lollipop update soon.

  • Can someone help me, I can't seem to send responses thru stock e-mail app. I'd really appreciate it

  • guys help me decide.which one should i buy,Note 4 or Mate 7?

  • me too i have the same problem what is the solution!?

  • hello everyone iam confused between mate 7 and hawawi p8 I heared the last one has amaaazing camera that never found in.any device and superb display but I dont know or I get note 4 is better than them with quad hd and ssharp display plz answer me

  • slow desktop animation make me sad.how fix this micobug??

  • Source?

  • Apparently the update will be released in the beginning of October.

  • still no lollipop update from huawei, as a Mate7 user, i have nothing to say anymore. better skip lollipop and straight jump to android 6.0 always with a HOPE

  • @ splatzkill, Factory Reset your phone. Go to settings -> Backup & Reset -> Factory Reset. Copy all your important data and contacts to computer before reset.

  • The Lollipop version is not yet stable. I know KK sucks but hey, don't break what's already working. Just wait for the 5.1.

  • I have this phone for 4 monthes and its great and I haven't any lag or bug in this device . Usually my phone needs 50 percent battry for a full day . The display is beautiful and I just miss lollipop version then I never think about changing my device coz it has more than what I needs and demands

  • i bought mine just 6 days ago, Mate 7 TL 10 gold version. after updating the firmware, the battery seems to drain very quickly. before i sleep, battery was at 97% but when i woke up next morning, battery is down to 18%. i think its a firmware issue after updating the new firmware. but now i have no choice but to root it back to the previous firmware. to be very honest, bad experience for me. p/s i only had wifi turn on when i slept. i never had this issues with my other phones e.g. mi3, galaxy s4, iphone4

  • are you serious? you sold your note 4 and 5, and just keep your mate 7? they are both premium phones.

  • indeed updates needed....

  • You updated your phone to B137? Is that version an official release from Huawei? Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I remember seeing B137 update on XDA and it's Lollipop. So if B137 is in fact Lollipop then I guess it is still buggy considering the fact that it's not been officially released yet. So last night my phone was on 72% at 1am, I woke up at almost 9am. My bettery was on 69%. Everything was off: wifi, 3g, apps

  • Hi all! I am using Huawei mate 7 already about 3 months. And this phone is great. Battery life, big beautiful screen and everything else is just wonderful. The only minus is that we still don't have lollipop update...

  • My Mate7 usually gets 99% immediately right after turning it on from charging. I am installing the PC Mark as I type this. Will post more details later.

  • From 1am - 9am, my battery lost 5%. It's been 8 days since I got it and only charged it for like 5 times. I know batteries must undergo several charges in order to reach the peak performance. I turned off everything and closed all apps before going to sleep. I don't know if 5% is good

  • Thank you all for your input. My mate 7 is still losing energy after updating it to B137. It looks like it's better, though. It has lost some 10% in 4.30 hours. It's still doing badly , I know. I've tried Pc Mark' battery work benchmark and both times it scored 4.20 minutes, from 100 to 20% ( screen brightness at 40%, wifi, GPS and all battery saving features on (smart profile), no apps in the background) The test is quite reliable and a good picture of what a continuous usage would do to your battery. And, I see it could last for some 5 hours of screen on time, not too bad, but it should be 7 hours. Don't you think? Please, the ones who are getting 7 hour of screen on time and everyone, do this test and tell us. My LG G3 doesn't loose energy while idle. It can stay 100% for at least 15 hours. This Mate 7 should not lose anything also. Please do the PC MARK battery benchmark test. - Eisley.

  • I have been using the mate 7 for 6 months and there is no software update. Find it strange because previous phone from Asus and Samsung have updates regularly.

  • Which one is better ? Huawei Ascend Mate 7 , HTC M8 , Sony Xperia Z2 ??

  • Well I don't know... But irrespective of how much juice my mate7 is losing in idle mode iam quite satisfied with over all battery performance. It is usually lasting for more than 1 day with heavy usage as I have already mentioned in my previous post. I always keeps on gps and WiFi. After reading eisley reply I google about battery lasting performance in idle mode and i found that usually the battery level of any android smart fone drop 1 to 2% in a period of 10hrs so dats fine and quite comprehensive. I have no idea why my mate 7 is losing aleast 5% in idle mode over a period of 10hrs. I haven't used any battery testing benchmark app yet like geekbench 3 etc.

  • Before I had one plus one and over a night it drops 1% in flight mode and 1%/hr in idle mode with sim on and WiFi on and gps on , now m using mate7 dual sim model it has a huge battery and last for long time In general over a night I lose almost 3% in idle mode with sim on ,WiFi on and gps on always. How come your cell is losing 5 to 8 % in a night?very strange

  • If the cell fone size is not a issue for u then I must say u should go for mate7. Very good device in terms of battery performance ,processor,ram,6inch full HD screen....awesome Better opt for 32 gb rom / 3gb ram version(dual sim version).

  • Couple of days back I disconnect my mate7 from charging around 9pm and in the morning around 7am the battery balance was 95%. So in 10 hrs my fone just consumed only 5% in idle mode. I also have samsung A8 and I have already compared battery consumption between two devices and I found that mate 7 is way better. After heavy usage of 24 hrs to 36 hrs(with 3g/WiFi continues on and moderate gaming/utube) I have to charge it again. Anyways it's only 1 month that I have been using mate7 so obviously I have no great idea that how my mate7 will perform after a decent period of time. My Mate 7 details. Model# huawei MT7-TL10. Android version # 4.4.2 EMUI # 3.0 Build version # MT7-TL10V100R001C00B128. Don't do factory reset again rather better to visit authorise service centre because frequent factory reset won't work for battery consumption related issues.

  • urs is losinh that much, its not the device that is having some problems. Its user error coz mine works almost perfect and doesn't loose that much battery in idle.

  • Hey guys ,,, I am going to buy a new smart phone ,, but i am so confused between Huawei ascend Mate7 & Huawei P8 ....... I am so afraid of the battery of P8 because if it's low durability ( 2680 mAh) although it's amazing features ,,, besides the battery of the Mate7 ( 4100 mAh ) which is much more higher in durability than the P8 .,,, please help me taking the best decision ,,, thanks :)

  • Is yours losing from 5 to 8% of battery life over night letting it idle? Wow man, that sounds quite wrong. My other smartphones don't lose anything! For example, my LG G3 stays 100% for like 15 hours or more. (I don't use it anymore since I'm testing my Mate 7). Isn't that worrying for you? Anyway, my mate 7 is still losing power over night, this time it lost 7% in more or less 4 hours over night. This is very very wrong. And yes, I have everything from Huawei's battery saving configuration set to save battery life. No apps in the background is allowed, etc. Please good mate 7 users, help me out. Would you please share how battery life is doing these latter days after a year or so of usage? That would be very helpful. Would you like to send me the system details of it to compare with mine? Also, do you know of battery drain over night on the Mate 7? And it gives no more of 4.20 hours in PC Mark battery test whereas my LG G3 gives 5.17 hours! There's something wrong with my Mate and I would like everyone's help, please. If you guys would like to help me and share your battery stats after some 10 months of usage, please do add me to WhatsApp: 0051 or +51 954993769 Thank you for your kind help.

  • Do your phone factory reset again. You might had left data on, and system remain busy to update the apps as usual after reset

  • Guys can any one suggest when we will get Android update 5.1.1....its so late now where people have started thinking about Android 6 release..........

  • My friend send two mate 7 to his home country. This Mate 7 is so amazing that i also purchase one for my self after using my friends Mate 7 for couple of hours. I shifted from Samsung to Huawei now. Its as good as I phone 6 or other very expensive alternatives offer by Samsung. I will give 10 on 10 to this model.

  • Hi! Check how many apps ur device is allowing to run in back ground by default? For me only 5-8% battery usually drops over a period of night in idle mode. Well do 1 thing , go to setting > protected apps (do not allow even single app to run in back ground after the screen goes off) Just try dat ....I hope the things would be better than the present situation.

  • I like mate 7 too much.... but lollipop :-(

  • mate 7 or note 4 or z3 which is best for dual sim

  • It does indeed support OTG.

  • If the size is not a problem then the Mate 7 is the best. The p8 very good too, but, it is like any other smartphone around with a very nice finish, but the Mate 7 is the Mate 7.

  • Hello. Please try something like I did. Charge it fully at bed time then let it idle the whole night, then in the morning check see how much battery has drained. My case is described below. I hope you and everyone helps with this testing so I can compare and know if my device's battery is faulty. Thank you for your kind help.

  • Kindly help me to make decision i have to choose between p8 n mate 7 which is tge best??

  • Please can this phone play san andreas gta?

  • I just had this phone today and I can say that I'm amazed at how it looks and performs. Even though this phone has been released in September 2014, its performance is still in par with other similar phones that were released this year. For those people who are choosing between Mate7, Note4, Note3, G3, G4, Z3, and Z3 Compact make sure to research all your choices. I was choosing among Mate7, Note4, and G4 and ended up getting this Mate7. Will post more updates with my new Mate7 in a days.

  • Hello Mate 7 users. I have a problem with my unit. Yesterday night I charged it fully and left it completely idle all night, I did not touch it. Then at 9 am I checked and battery was 55%!!!!! What's wrong? I did a factory reset a day ago. This was not like that. It has some 10 months of usage. I checked battery stats and saw the drainers on top were: Android OS 24% , Phone idle 20%, Android System 16%, Cell standby 14%, wifi 4% only, System UI 2% only. The fact that battery went from 100 to 55% in a little more than 10 hours with no usage at all is frightening! Please give me some advice on what to do. Some link to some thread about it? The theme on is Magazines, BTW. But the changing of the wallpapers was stopped before. Can you suggest me some battery fix? My unit is running on 4.4.2, not rooted, all stock. Thank you for your help!! Eisley

  • Who does know if Huawei Ascend MTE 7 SUPPORTS flash OTG ?

  • Mate 7 or p8

  • HELP PLZ ... WHAT CAN I GET HUAWEI ASCEND MATE 7 OR HUAWEI P 8 OR LENOVO VIBE Z2 PRO

  • Double click volume ( fast shooting ) can be cancelled easy from camera settings ..try it

  • Are u seroius does it lasted for 5 days?=-O

  • mate 7 is better my friend

  • Which phone is better? Mate 7 or Sony c5 ultra?

  • i have a problem recently with mate 7 sometimes it mutes itself while i can see the volume indicator at max and the only solution is to restart it.

  • but sony c5 ultra has seperate micro sd slot instead of using sim 2 in this. another thing is sony xperia c5 ultra has an expandable memory upto 200gb. one more thing is that sony has front facing camera of 15 mp with flash. another one is that sony has a gpu of 720 instead of 6 hundred something of ascend. only down fall of sony is for battery-2930mah compared to 4100 of ascend. but 2930 is decent enough for a hardcore gamer like me.

  • hi Guys. ive been reading about this phone for quite sometime and had done some comparison. the on par competitor for this phone is the Oppo R7 Plus because the specs are nearly similar. except that the R7 has Android 5.1 and fast charge. No NFC on the R7. another this is, smartphone has a lifespan for 1year only until some hardware malfunctions, can I get feedbacks on how long you guys had been using your Mate7? just wanna know your feedback, should I go for the Mate7 or R7 ? appreciate your feedback guys. cheers!

  • Go for sitting there is an option inside wifi keep the wifi alive when the screen is locked

  • Just managed to clocked 10hrs SOT with 4G moderate usage. This beast just refuse to fall.

  • Yeah my mate 7 survived a fall from my pocket to the concrete floor. Glass did not shatter or scratches. Only the backplate suffered some minor scratches. Quite a miracle!

  • In my opinion it is a very strong phone just today as i was going to go down the stairs my phone fell off my pile of books from the top 2 stories down and there was quite an impact.The screen did not shatter or even have a single scratch, the phone did not bend or anything. There were no damages physically. There was however some damage to the lcd inside the screen but i expected way worse from a smartphone that thin. You would never be able to tell that there was any damage by looking at the phone until you switched it on.

  • You have gotta be kidding me? If you managed to squandered away the battery life of mate 8 carelessly, no phone will live up to your expectations.

  • This is a great phone but this bat dies so quick, and i only got the phone for 5 days now.

  • And also the imx214 is nicely optimized for amazing picture quality. Also the Cat 6 LTE for blazing network connection! :)

  • Have used many flagship models and my heart still stays with mate 7. Its everything that i can ask for. Beautiful 6 inch screen, premium and slim built quality, powerful processor, microsd expandable, DTS loud and clear music quality, fast and accurate fingerprint scanner and amazing battery life. Its really a mate for life! I had note 4 and note 5, Z3+ and quickly sold them off. Everything pales in comparasion with mate 7!

  • how long you are using your mate 7?because I experience the same thing..I am using my phone for about 6months when this fast battery draining occurs...

  • A very good phone. I have the 16 GB storage 2 GB RAM version. The screen is very clear to read. I love the 4100 mAh battery and the clever power control of the phone. I run my phone pretty hard and still have 20% battery after two days. The overall size of the phone feels a bit big in my hands but it's lovely to have such a big screen to read. * One slightly bad feature for me is the double push on the down volume to start the camera when the phone is locked - I find I'm always unlocking the phone and taking a picture as I put my phone in my pocket, and this can't be turned off. * I dislike not having an App Drawer and having all my icons all over the desktop, but this is easily resolved by using Nova launcher from the app market. * Speaker call volume is very good. * Camera is excellent. * The other downside of having this phone is it runs Kitkat 4.4.4 which doesn't allow third party apps to write to the SD card. Fortunately I managed to root the phone with Kingo tweak the OS and so I can now use Open Camera and have it write images to the SD card. *Overall a great phone at a good price here in Australia from Vodafone.

  • Before with my s5 in some area i dont get network signal at all. But now with my Huawei ascend mate 7 i have network signal any where with data enable this phone is the best for me.

  • I said the same thing! They leave WiFi, Data network, Bluetooth and GPS on and expect the battery to last a day? Ignorance!

  • Did you leave the Bluetooth, WiFi or GPS or even Data Network on???!!!

  • I find this comment very helpful: "I have a Galaxy Note 3, Note 4 and Galaxy Note Edge but nothing beats Huawei Ascend Mate 7." :) ;)

  • This is a wonderful phablet, I would live for it.

I have been using mate 7 since 5 months now and I'd say ''woooooooooow what a device '' To answer your question ; Open WhatsApp and whenever you get the notification of consumption battery apps uncheck WhatsApp from their.

  • Cant get notification on screen when Phone is closed.

  • Can anybody advise, how to take a screen shot on this device? Thanks,

  • lithium Ion does not require full charge at start

  • I loved this phone with long battery back up..and great and smooth performance..

  • Any source of that information coz am losing my patience slowly but sure.

  • Its actually 83% screen to body ratio :)

  • I have a friend testing the beta of 5.1 (they are skipping 5.0 which is why we don't have the update yet) and apparently it's quite good on his phone and should be released soon. Don't spread false information.

  • They are skipping 5.0 and going straight to 5.1 which is why we don't have it yet. I know a person on the beta test. Should be out within a month provided no nasty bugs are found.

  • They are releasing lollipop but going straight to 5.1 which is why we waited longer than some others. I know a person on the beta testing team. Should be out very soon provided there are no bugs.

  • Hi, Modern smartphones don't need to be fully charged out of the box. It comes with enough power to run the phone until the next charge, Just insert your sim and get on with it. .

  • hey guys, i just got this phone, how to get the maximum benefit of the way the battery is charged?? shall i charged it to full before i turn it on for the first time??? or i use it normally then i charge it whenever the battery is low???

  • this model is 32 bit

  • this model support 32bit or 64bit....anyone help me plsss...thx :)

  • this model support 32bit or 64bit....anyone help me plsss...thx :)

  • I've been using this giant beauty since last 9 months. No complaint at all. It's fast buttery smooth. And this is the second mate 7 since i'd lost my first one mate 7 last 6 months ago. Display is crisp. I often use my phone as E reader. But automatic brightness is a bit low. Sound from the speaker is good enough but headphone a bit low in bass. The best feature I love in this phone is Finger Print which you need only about 1 secs to unlock your phone. Also you can hide the navigation bar so that you can use it at full screen. No heating issue. Battery last for 1.5 days for medium to heavy usage for one charge. The only thing I wish more from this phone is double tab to screen on. Thanks Huawei for the great device. I'm willing to help you guys about this phone. For more info pm me.

  • Love this phone. 3 Month after used , it is simply a great phone. would be excelent if there's a good news for upgrade to Android Lolipop.

  • This phone is simply fantastic.. Doesn't hang and battery lasts 2days easy with average use

  • any news for lollipop update..?

  • This phone can get 8-9 screen on time without any problem!(with wireless on). With mobile network sot is like 6-7 hours :) When watching movies 10 hours+

  • This phone quite good.especially I love the fingerprint security.with this function,I unlock my phone within 1 second.second things is build in with savings battery notification.but only the thing have to improve is sometimes whatapps can't be detected when got message come in.

  • Just continue using your Sony and stop asking silly questions. Huawei Ascend range has been in existense for a while now. thats why they outsell Sony 5 to 1. Continue dreaming.

  • I dont think huawei is beneficial...is this phone worth? I have been using sony xperia for 5 years...no issues, now i upgraded to xperia z3.. But this one, will it stay strong over 2-3 years ?

  • I am also having email problem.

  • Some people buy just because of game & they ' LLC com here saying phone 's not good

  • It is easy to judge peaple without information... for the record I havent done any thing wrong.. as I said there was no possible reason And this is my second huawei phone,before this I trusted the company but now I am just suggesting to carefully consider all the other options before buying huawei products.. although I still love many features of huawei phones, my next phone wont ever be huawei again

  • I totaly agree with Usmanmunir. This forum was created by GSMARENA so that we may be able to discuss pertinent issues regarding various aspects of smartphone technology. GSMARENA also made it very easy to understand our phones by providing individual analysis on major brands through their reviews and specifications. You would therefore expect many readers to familiarize themselves with their gadgets before complaining about irrelevant issues. However the opinions that appear here at times border on the absurd. if for example you are going to spend money on a smartphone and expect the screen not to shatter and then complain if it does by blaming the manufacture, then you should see a doctor first or JUST SHUT UP because you have nothing to say.

  • Some people don't know how to handle and take care of a phone how to use its software how to save battery they always keep blue tooth on/wifi on/ data on/ gps on and complain about battety drain issue Oh-God crap people and their comments are so funny like i got my phone to fall once and it got faulty dear BMW also need only one accident to be destroyed. Paul Walker need only one accident to lose his life and destroyed his car same is the case with phone it is not a heavenly thing who got life upto thousands years

  • For your kindinfo huawei mate2 already got update to lollipop version and p7, honor6 and mate 7 beta versions of lollipop already sent for testing to selected users. Huawei is not a crap company which is producing phones which get heat up easily like the so called giant samsung/ like the un aware techs who are using still li-ion batteries which are Too old to RIP where huawei using Li-Pol batteries. Samsung is the name of brand as it was previosly Nokia. No matter which phone they annouced it got success due to brand trust but later it was sold and found so many quality issues voice leakage issue etc etc Huawei is a name of quality first do some researchvthen come up with logical points. Samsung giving high price phone with shitty low Ram tell me phones of samsung which have 2GB or more Ram and check huawei phones specs dear dont play blame game the thing u did not used avoid commenting about that

  • I bought with same high price and enjoying till now without any issue

  • It is your fault to broke its cpu huawei remember its not a unbreakable phone. Why u blaming huawei for your irresponsible attitude

  • i am totally satisfied with the performance of my mate7.awesome battery timing good job huawei..

  • I bought the phone soon after it was released so I bought it when it was at its most expensive price,which I could have bought a good Samsung device with it And now I deeply regret my purchase Out of no where,without any possible reason the cpu broke.. the phone turned off and didn't turn on.. And now after 2times of repairment it doesn't work correctly I have to charge it twice a day The clock isn't working And its always overheating and believe me the heat is so much So my advice: Dont buy Huawei ever!

  • Lol , huawei will not update your phone ever to lollypop version.but huawei will give you a lully pop to play and for wasteing your time for.new version.

  • Guys you are not going to believe me.but I am telling you true about huawei.I do believe the phone is good.but other thing you really dont like about huawei is this ,they dont ever update your phone like samsung do.and they send you small updates ,which are always buggy.dont update your phones ever if you want to use your phone truoble free.this is the worst part of huawei.china is always going to stay china.and.these kind.of companies are robbing our money.we are paying heaps of amount for piece of craps.this phone is still very expansive.but still cant compete with note three in many senses.I am not a samsung fan also.but atleast they update their brands.

  • Hi guys if you want Call Recorder, install 'Record My Call' by Nathaniel KH from Playstore. Install the application then open Settings - Tweaks, then change Audio Source to 'Phone Call'. Don't change other settings. Enjoy guys !

  • we get whatss app or other like aap on this phone

  • I was really hoping to get Lollipop update on my Mate 7, but still nothing....

  • The worst hardware ever. My device fell just once on the floor and now the screen frame and the screen are both messed up. Huawei, please improve on your display frame on your new project.

  • You do that from settings.

  • Every phone operating system is upgradable. Android belongs to Google who are always realising upgrades to its OS. Huawei Mate 7 is on the verge of getting android Lolipop 5.1 OS upgrade

  • Hi, which of them is better?? Mate7 dual or HTC E8 Dual?? and why?? Thanks

  • Isthe operating system upgradable

  • Mate7 32GB Dual-SIM : Can someone confirm "Device Encryption" exists? Some claims that is under Menu: More --> Security --> Encrypt Device. But unable to locate this feature during Huawei Roadshow. I am from Malaysia.

  • i can't find fm radio. where is it ?

  • Please is there any special way to make a video call with this phone or it does not have that function?

  • Huawei never cares to update their products. Dont loose yorr heart!

  • Lollipop please come asap. i want to make a wish here. i hope you can add in below few features. 1. better camera 2. Huawei P8 Knuckle Sense 3. draw gestures like G7 4. a brand new keyboard (number row + smooth typing) Thank you HUAWEI!!

  • i been using this phone since january 2015 there is no any issue every thing wonderful reception is great i am really satisfied from all aspects of this device

  • Total Call Recorder from Google Playstore.

  • I am also waiting plz confirm when update

  • I bought two mate 7 phones. The phone seems very nice and useful, but I find a big disadvantage. The network coverage is very poor in comparison to other Huawei phones or other brands. Also, if the network signal is 60% or less, the phone is not receiving the calls, but still functioning to receive the miss call SMS and internet. Which is really strange. Accordingly, I just returned them as they have a manufacturing problems.

  • Could you plz send me a link for this particular call recorder, as I could not find it on the play store? Thanks,

  • huawei ascent mate 7 is rooted phone or not

  • Galaxy Call REcorder

  • Hi there, I need a call recorder which works perfectly on my Ascend Mate7. Your kind suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

  • i been using this phone since junuary 2015 every thing awesome,i am really satisfy with this phone from all aspects of this device.thanks Huawei.

  • For the fact that i have to use earphones all the time when I taking or making a call on this phone,it do not look like a good phone for but if that can be changed i will be interested to have and use it again.

  • Mate 7 or z3+ ? Please help

  • Mate 7 or z3+ ? Please help

  • I am using Mate-7. I don't receive notification sound and led light also not blinks for my E-Mail account notifications. Any solution ?

  • Mate 7, dual sim with 32GB. Great phone for advanced business user. Great battery durability. Fast CPU. Best phone I ever used.

  • Navigation bar (Multitask, Home and Back Buttons) on screen bro

  • Why is it a bad thing? The buttons would hid automatically when playing videos/games full screen giving you extra rooms for the display. Stick to the fruit if you want a physical button.

  • BEST PHONE EVER!! Also, its getting Lollipop 1st week of July 2015!!!!!

  • Oh that's bad thing

  • They are part of the display, not physical buttons.

  • Hello, It's been long since I posted here, but my heart is where my money is... I'm with Huawei ascend mate7...six months...zero complains. I have to say, this is the best for me.....in case I lose it,I must buy the same....because this is my loyal servant..mate7 for life. Mate 7 solved my curiosity,....,all my previous phones are just sitting at home....Lumia 920, lumia 1320, Samsung galaxy note 1, 2,...Xperia Z ultra,...and the legendary E72... This phone (Mate7) is heaven....I can say with confidence and evidence. Bye friends.....and thanx to Huawei

  • In mate 7 Home n back etc buttons are on the body or in the disply? Guys reply plz

  • - the internal microphone not working during the first month of usage. - customer service was very bad (the told me i should to pay the total fees and it would be fixed from 3 weeks to one month).

  • I am not receiving ring tone for Corporate Email notifications on mate 7. Any solution ?

  • its wonderful device,i been using from 5 months there is no issue,battery is awesome,honestly i am really satisfied with it from all aspects of this phone.

  • Am having the same problem kindly update me if there is any solution [email protected]

  • Anyone have an idea when the lollipop update be available?

  • I own mate 7,3GB, 32gb for last 3 months. Built in quality is good. When it comes to performance, the spec doesn't prove to be good. The performance is much poorer which we expect from an octacore2gb and that much ram. My Samsung note 8 1.8dual core 2gb ram performs much better. And when you use multiple apps phone gets heated.. for average usage its good.

  • yes

  • its not coz its 95% metal and the metal used by mate 7 is a special kind of metal that when you wipe it, it wont get rust or fade.

  • Wait for the lollipop update it should have it

  • Try a factory reset.

  • today i also got update 116mb for my 32gb mate7,its really life mate.thanks huawei good job.

  • Does anyone have experience with cleaning mate7 with wet rag? I do this constantly to my phones to be clean but they are not made from metal. If i do this to mate7 will it rust?

  • Hi Every one , Just now i got an update for 32gb ver of Mate -7 in dubai 116MB in size .

  • Hi all, can someone help me, im woried about battery and ram consumption, battery can hold maybe a day and it should be better according to reviews and ram is about 600mb free, should be it like that? Any sugestion? Tu...btw great phone

  • i see the review in the CPU-Z app and everyone complaining on battery giving incorrect information.So no worries. could any one suggest good case, i thought of buying Nilkin..any comments

  • I ve been using this phone for few months. It is a great phone. I am so happy to own the phone.

  • Hello Frnds, I am using Mate 7 for the Past 4 months.i am having problem in using my speaker phone. When i put my phone in speaker the other end used cant here my voice. is there any problem with my phone . os any solution is there ???

  • Hii everyone.. Who knows about SAR value for this pnone?? Everybody can becareful about SAR value , its more than 1.00 ??? This is not good..I m using Asus ZENFONE 6 it has only 0.53 ..

  • Update CPU-Z application and then you will see correct information

  • When will Huawei Update The Kitkat Version Of Huawei Asend Mate 7 To Lollipop Versions ??

  • My contacts always hanged and I cannot extract them especially the exchange server Any advice?

  • Mate get the phone with a warranty, however Huawei has awesome quality when it comes to the manufacturing process. This company will have the same rep of quality as Nokia did in the 90's!

  • I bought this phone 3 weeks back. It was good hardware . no heating issue.smooth phone but the user interface is not up to the mark. Managed by installing third party launcher. My phone is 3gb and 32gb version but the battery shows while running "CPU-Z" app as 3000 mAh.I was told the battery is 4100 mAh. Any comments??

  • I have being using HAM for the past 1 month. Do not use with vary temperature like leaving an air conditioned room at 19*c to an atmospheric temperature of 32*c. It can cause the metal users an Administrator and a guest with different passwords and fingerprint such that you can hide some apps in the guest mode

  • Someone who knows please reply i really want to know

  • thanks for reply..but i mean..not dual-band... i say that 802.11 ac~~[Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, dual-band, DLNA, Wi-Fi Direct, hotspot -> it has spec on huawei] cause i use giga-internet..so i can use 802.11ac but mate7 can't support 802.11ac...so sad

  • It has 802 ac dual band support. No battery issue with Kirin. Am using Amber Gold Mate 7 for 2 weeks. No issue at all. Excellent Device...buttery smooth and long battery life. Go for it

  • why mate7 doesn't have 802.11ac !!! so sad..todays other phones have this wifi type. and i saw some article that kirin 925 has battery issue? how about it? i hope to know that really mate7 battery perfomance.

  • You can choose which SIM card to use for 4G It does not have the option to use 4G for both SIMs simultaneously. You can also select which SIM is the default for: - Data service - Calls and Messaging

  • this phone when can get android 5.0??? i wait long time already!!! @.@

  • Does anyone know if this phone supports LTE on both SIM slots? Thanx . . .

  • As a long time Samsung User, I can safely say that this is one of the best phones I have ever owned. 2 day battery life. Flawless 2 sim card operation. Awesome screen. Dont let the Samsung fans put you off this phone.It's great.

  • I totally agree. This Mate 7 is a pleasure to use. This is the first Android phone that is as fast and smooth as Windows Phones is! NOTE: The only reason I stopped using Windows phone is because of the web rendering issues and occasional browser crushes.

  • This phone outperforms Samsung NOTE 4 in every way! I've been using both phones for two days: ~Slightly better battery life ~Almost no lag and stutter (Samsung Note 4 lags, stutters and slow scrolling through any browser) THE ONLY CON IS: ~No HD VOICE! It is really a shame that besides Nokia and Microsoft no other brand installs HD Voice software on phones. With SAMSUNG AND LG only T-Mobile versions have it. Don't believe paid Samsung reviews! Try both phones and you will see that MATE 7 has less lag, faster and has a much cleaner and bloatware free interface!

  • sofar no probs I work everyday with em the fingerprint is brilliant it could be that your fingerprint itself isn't so easy to read otherwise let it get checked out if it was within the first 7 days you could've told the shop where you bought it that there is a fault with the scanner and get a OBF (out of box failure) first time I hear about a fault with those phones brilliant phones really everytime I work on one its just to help people set up emails its amazing how many people don't know how to set up emails on devices but trust me good phone

  • I have heard that if your hand is wet or dirty it will not work.

  • Hey guys,i've been using mt7 for abt 3 months.. i've found that the fingerprint scanner nt so accurate if compare with other brands such as meizu pro,galaxy s6...sometimes.. i need to clean the fingerprint scanner in order to unlock my phone..it's totally a waste of time..is it my phone problem?

  • I've heard that the P8 has light painting and time lapse modes will it be possible to get this on the ascend mate 7?

  • Heat up? never happen on my Mate 7.

  • Yup awesome I use this phone and the battery is awesome too

  • Never use Huawei phone before... how's the soc - Kirin? i heard it heat up a lot... is it true?

  • Why GSMARENA you are not mentioned in the characteristics that is a DUAL SIM FULL ACTIVE (use both sims at the same time). Also on - Asus Zenfone 2 - page you are not mentioned it too. Please make it searchable in the phone finder is very important for a lot of people.

  • Am I missing something bout this phone the Ascend Mate7? Saw it in our shops over here, Yes it is a big phone,Yes big screen,big battery, 1080screen. I thought I'd love it, I have Flex1,so it doesn't have 1080,or a 4100battery, but it dose have a decent battery (2days) the screens just fine, it has dual screen,drop down notifications AND the curve that fits nicely against your face or hand.of cause the top n bottom could be like Mate7,a 1080screen. Still love my G FLEX.ANY complaints?

  • Front camera: P7-8mp Mate7-5mp

  • Awesome phone, batt is superb, display is vibrant, sound is clear, body has some fine finish with aluminum back, fingerprint unlock works fine too, processor is fast, best option is huawei's manager now u dnt need to download extra optimizer and trash cleaner, camera is good bt cant compare it wd iPhone 6 and samsung s6. Design is unique, its a big phone and yet light in weight as compared to other Samsung phones, value for money, this is my 4th phone of huawei,i have used p6,g700,p7 and g6...as far as i am concerned these huawei phones are far more durable than any other phones. Go for it bro, u can't get these things more cheaper. All the best

  • Hello Friends, can anybody advice me not to buy this phone!! and why not....

  • yes, it can do. I just try it and works fine. Good luck

  • Yes you can do it

  • It has outstanding reception... Voice is clear but its volume is low during call..

  • Hey gey's what's up. only camera 5mp .... !!!

  • I would like to ask if that specific phone as Dual Sim Full Active can do the following: I want two use simultaneously one sim for talking and a second only for data (no voice) with several gb to do tethering the laptop when I'm out of office (I am tired to carrying and extra usb stick modem or a mifi). Will I be able to speak with the first sim and tether internet to my laptop from the second sim without cutting the conversation or the internet ? Has anyone tried to work simultaneously on the internet from one sim and speak to a person from the second sim at the same time? Thanks

  • I think it will not come to India .....m waiting since 6 months

  • Guys whether this mate 7 will heat aftet a long use also for higher configuration

  • Hi everyone, i am encouraged by your feedbacks to buy this phone. Anyone of you can comment on the mobile voice quality when making calls on any of the SIMs? And how is its reception? is it good and you do not lose signal on any of the SIMs? i suffered a lot from htc one dual SIM SIM2 reception and not willing to repeat this bad experience.

  • Just got one for myself and I love it... brilliant!

  • When will this be available/released in India? Many ppl from India are willing to buy this..

  • Please notify us when Ascend Mate 8 is launched.

  • Outstanding phone....love u mate 7....👍👍👌&­;#128536;😘😘😘­

  • Huawei Mate7 front camera 5mega pixel and rear is 13mega pixel awesome device...you can also confirm on huawei official website too!

  • I was skeptical while buying a Chinese brand.. I owned Note 3 and iPhone 5 before but this things blew me out... What a wonderful piece of tech this is.. Bravo Huawei.. u made me ur fan... Excellent phone, crisp display, magical finger print and awesome battery life.. smooth like butter

  • its 8 mega pixel

  • the p8 comes with front 8mp camera.... p7 5mp

  • Hello! I might to buy Huawei p 7 this week, than there some shops told me that the front camera is 5pixil then another shops told me from camera is 8pixil. Someone can tell the truth?

  • One of my best phones in the world bravooo mate 7

  • One of my best phones in the world bravooo mate 7

  • I used ascend p6, during the call the internet stop, after the call end internet start working again Its a big problem for me! How about Mate 7? Can somebody tell me about mate 7?

  • What about face book contacts birth date in callander is there any body explain to me.

  • No one is arguing that this is and excellent phone. I will stick to this phone. It is bloatware free and no annoying popups and notifications that must be manually disabled like on many galaxy phones. The interface is also the the best (Thank you Huawei!). All I was saying that the call volume is not loud enough and that you definitely need to carry a portable battery with you.

  • Cannsome body tell how to sync Facebook callender in callander.

  • Before u start to coment anyting on this fone , just go & have it 1st, the batry last for 2days of heavy use if u buy from right store & stop comparing ur SCRAP note 4 with always screen probs. 9hours of heavy web, 10 hours of vedio & so on

  • For your kind information battery is not 4200mAh its 4100mAh,it mean you dont have huawei mate7.i already used samsung,Apple but i am totally satisfied with the design and performance of my mate7.i love it.

  • so do you think it's worth it ? do you advice me to buy it or not ???

  • Hi can any one tell me about the quality of sound of music when listening through an earphone? Does it have sound equalizer for ear phone music?

  • 41000 mAh battery is not that big as it sounds and wont produce much better results than 3000 mAh one. If the phone display is turned on alot (be it web browsing or watching the videos) it will drain the battery quickly. This phone will completely drain the battery after continuous 6hr of web browsing (if you start continuous browsing from the moment the battery is fully charged). This is normal for quad core processor and such a large high resolution display. You need a mobile power battery with you 12000 mAh Or buy a Note 4 phone where you can buy a cover battery of 10000 mAh and a separate 3000 mAh with a separate charger from Samsung . All together is $100 and will give you enough power.

  • Yes this is noted issue in android But for my phone there are many issues other than you mention. For example today my phone battery lasting only 18hr!!! ... Where is the 4200mAh battery???!!! May be it is a problem in my mobile only ...??? Really I'm disappointed.

  • Few more PROS of this phone: ~Super beautiful Huawei made Interface and bloatware free phone! ~Fast and responsive Google Chrome Browser! CONS: ~Poor call Volume! (come on Huawei!) ~Poor typical Android typing experience! ~Pictures wont attach to the text out of the box (I'm sure it could be fixed by calling Huawei tech support but still annoying). No issues attaching pics to Email though. Why can just Google overwrite the Android or do something to make typing experience in Android as relaxed, fast and smooth as on a Windows phone?

  • I only been using it for one day and so far no freezes or any other major issue. But one thing is more clear now beyond any doubt: TYPING TEXT on any Android device cannot be smooth and headache free such as on Windows phone! Note 4 is the same! No matter what shape keyboard you download, you cant type with relaxed fingers. Microsoft has superior text correction and much smoother touch interface which make typing any text super easy and fast.

  • I have the gold version 32G / 3G RAM. It is with me for more than 1 month .... But I have many issues : the phone hang many times in a day When I open more than one app. Together . and the battery last only for 1 day - 24 hour not more than . I turned on the two Sim cards and my usage not heavy .... When I browse internet and move screen up and down , I have some delay . Are any one have same issue that I have.??

  • I am using Mat7 since last 3 weeks. i faced adding local language, it does not have support for most of the languages, but LG G2 and Samsung does provide support. it will be good if Huawei re-think about it

  • I'm using this for almost 5 months now....no issues with this device .a good buy .

  • sony xperia z is better than this in my opinion.

  • What about mate 8 , dose any body have a definite news about it?

  • I have been using this phone for about a month now. I think the phone is worth the money because it is much cheaper than the flagship models. But the phone does get laggy some times. I am not fully satisfies with its speed, else other things like its sound,screen resolution,gaming experience are fine. Typing on this phone is a bit slower than many other devices. So I would suggest to buy a Note 3 than this device.

  • And what does it do?

  • I read that it's 2 business days

  • I have used a Huawei ascend mate 7 for over a month now, excellent phone, with heavy usage the battery lasts for 2 days. No problem with battery life at all. Huawei have done an excellent job with this phone.

  • Where I can purchase this phone now

  • I have been using Mate7 for 2 months. I like it so much that I have purchased one more unit for my son. It took me a while to adapt to EMUI but it's ok. The best thing I like about this phone is the speed, when I use data, it appears to be faster than all my previously owned handsets. For the amount I paid, Mate7 worth it all and the performance indeed is comparable to a lot of big brand flagships, yet much cheaper.

  • Just restart your phone

  • why dear mate7 is better I see Lenovo vibe z2 pro has muche better resolution and 4 k video and cpu much bettrr could u explain

  • no f1.8 camera (G4) no front speaker (M9) no curved screen (s6 edge) no Spen (note 4) Huawei Ascend Mate 7 6" display 4100mAh battery 1 step fingerprint sensor dual sim card & MicroSD slot support upto 128GB cheaper than any other flagship smartphone.

  • Does Mate 7 has less battery life as compared to Mate 2 and if yes, why? Overall user reviews on the battery life of Mate 7 as compared to other phones?

  • if you talk about EMUI, i do agree huawei is weak in the ui design. take many steps to go into the actual place we wanted to reach. eg. pull down the screen from top to bottom, they split it to 2 parts. notification and shortcuts, but always when i scoll from the right side, i still get the Notification part.
