Anyone using Zym with Mate20X?
I keep getting Wifi authentication notification/popups even on my home wifi network.

Seems to start after I went from Simba to Zym.

Anyone using this phone with Galaxy Watch4?

I'm having problem connecting to Watch4, I remember there a special step to sync to the watch but unable to find. Do share if anyone can help.

Thanks.

Hi all. My mate 20x was purchased in late 2018. Just wondering what's the latest version for the EMUI? Reason I ask is that I realised recently that it has been updating every night, but immediately there seems to be a new patch to update again.

I wonder is it because I had never allowed auto updates until recently, so perhaps it is trying to 'catch up'? Is there a way to skip immediately to the latest version instead of incrementally updating patch by patch?

My current version is 10.1.0.257.

 

[Sidler]

The latest is 12.0.0.132.
Cannot skip. The last time I change m/b, also had to keep updating incrementally.
Just keep going.

I wish to have more updates coming but I think is coming to the end of this phone sad

Same thoughts. Hardware is still willing, but without anymore updates, it's hard to keep using it.
I actually wanted to change battery and keep using it for a few more years but changed my mind.

Where did you change the battery? My mum's Mate 20 battery bloated up so got it changed at the neighbourhoid ah beng shop. The China guy did a terrible job and cracked the screen protector which he covered up with rubber bands meant to hold the casing together. I discovered it on a Wednesday when Huawei service centre is closed. Needed it urgently as we were travelling a few days later.

What apps are you unable to use? This phone is still my daily phone and it gets heavy use. Have to charge multiple times a day lol.

Go back service center for battery change is the best.
Not much queue now that Huawei isn't a popular brand anymore. Usually can get back in the same day if send in early.

As of now, all apps still can use.

Best is to change battery at Huawei

I once brought the sony phone to a shop for repairing due to unresponsive LCD screen, battery life took a hit as the original screen was an efficient type
