Huawei P10 and P10 Plus owners didn’t expect to receive a huge 4GB update

In order to install any original firmware, you must do the following:

1. Copy the dload folder with all its contents to the root of the SD card;
2. Turn off the tablet;
3. Insert the SD card if it was removed;
4. While holding the Volume Up key, press and hold the Power button until the screen blinks. The Volume Up button must be held until the installation process begins (a green robot and a progress bar will appear);
5. Finally, when prompted, remove the SD card or hold the Power button for 10 seconds.

Note: In some cases, you don’t need to press the buttons at all and the process will start automatically after turning on/rebooting.

If the update process does not start, you need to open the calculator, enter ()()2846579()()= and then select Project Menu Act -> Upgrade ->SD Card upgrade.

Attention!

• Do not remove the card or press the power button until the process is complete and the appropriate prompt appears on the screen;
• If the power is lost during the installation process, repeat the firmware process;
• After copying the firmware to the SD card, check if it is damaged (copy the firmware files, disconnect and then connect the SD card, check that the *.zip files in the firmware open without errors on the computer).
• Delete the firmware file from the SD card or rename the dload folder if you don’t want to accidentally update the tablet again!

Choose an update method based on your needs.

Why don’t I receive notifications from applications on Huawei and Honor smartphones?

Often the cause is a system failure. But the lack of notifications can also be associated with the actions of the user himself. So common reasons include:

1. Enabled Do Not Disturb mode, which could be activated independently due to a software error in Android, or by the owner of the flagship.
2. A function is active in the phone settings that prohibits displaying SMS or application notifications.
3. When installing a new program, for example, WhatsApp, you did not provide permission to send notifications.
4. There is not enough space in the device memory. That is, the RAM just clogged up.
5. There are viruses in the system.

Typically, received notifications are displayed in the top panel or when you pull out the curtain. A flashing indicator also alerts you to incoming messages or calls. If you do not receive any notification SMS, then first of all check the activity of the “Do not disturb” mode, which according to the standard is marked with a crescent icon. You can change this item through the top curtain, pull it out and select the “Normal” mode.

If the problem is due to low memory, then go to the settings and open the “Cache Data” tab.

At the bottom you will see the “Storage Cleanup” section, where you can rid your smartphone of unnecessary applications and files that are taking up space.

What Huawei will lose without a license

The lack of a license and tougher sanctions are guaranteed to lead to the most unpleasant consequences for both Huawei itself and its users. From now on the company is prohibited from:

• Install Google services on any smartphone;
• Distribute monthly security updates;
• Use system tools like GMS and Google Cloud;
• Release Kirin processors on ARM architecture;
• Install any American applications.

Updates, Google Play and software: what will Huawei smartphones lose

“The State Department supports the Commerce Department’s decision to prevent Huawei from operating outside the laws of the United States. To achieve this, it was decided to limit Huawei’s ability to interact with American enterprises by limiting the rights of 38 enterprises affiliated with Huawei, on whose behalf the company entered into contracts in its own interests. We have provided local organizations with sufficient time to switch to alternative software and equipment, so we consider extending the license to be no longer appropriate,” the State Department said.

“soft” hard reset of Huawei tablet:

Quick shutdown

The easiest way to exit the mode is to hold down the volume and do not let go until the phone vibrates. A pop-up notification will appear indicating that program functions have been disabled.

If you are using an Android 4 phone, it will take a little more effort. While holding down the power button and waiting for the vibration to notify you that the smartphone is turned off, you need to press the display with two fingers. By holding your fingers on the screen, a pop-up will also appear after a few seconds confirming that Talkback has been turned off.

This method is suitable if there are no hotkeys installed. If you plan to continue using the assistant using keys, you can check and configure them using the following instructions:

1. In the settings you need to find the “Special Features” section.
2. Go to “Volume control buttons”.
3. By clicking on the slider, allow quick activation of the service.
4. In the same section you can place the program on the locked screen.
5. Select Talkback from the list provided.
6. In the window that appears, all the functions of the application will be indicated; you must agree to them by clicking “Ok”.

Appearance of mediapad

Externally, the tablet resembles a good expensive business device. All parts are laconic and made mainly of aluminum. Although this feeling is only from the outside. The screen is covered with ordinary glass — no Gorilla Glass, no oleophobic coating. Constant scratches and “fingers” on the screen are guaranteed.

Front view of tablet

Behind the glass, the front camera is clearly visible, which has its place in one of the corners of the tablet.

Tablet back cover

The back cover of the tablet is almost completely covered with metal (aluminum), with the exception of two plastic inserts with a soft-touch coating. One of them has a 5-megapixel fullHD camera built into it. Behind the other insert are two slots: for SIM and microSD cards.

Slots behind removable cover

The thick metal edging is not overloaded with functional elements; on the contrary, their arrangement is quite laconic. On the right side there are integral volume keys and a lock/power key .

On the bottom edge there is a charger connection port
