Honestly with no OEMs embracing project treble (the S9 didn't even launch on 8.1) I think Google have an open goal with the 3/3xl

The exact reason I got Huawei mate 10 pro was because it claimed to be one of the first phones apart from the Pixel line that supported Project Treble. Personally I am inclined to either get the Nokia 7 plus which is a alot cheaper but it is minus waterproofing and front facing speakers or wait till the Pixel 3 series of phones.

Exactly how I feel. Somehow the AOD has become a huge feature for me and is the sole reason I'm selling my M10pro on.

Also see pixel as the iPhone of Android but I cannot get past the 2 and 2xls design. Maybe the 3xl?

The Mate 10 Pro HAS always on display search for it in settings

He's using it already but not having 3rd party notifications on it is frustrating him. Which is understandable when it could be so easily fixed with an update from Huawei

[neil74]

Indeed, it's there just useless for me without 3rd party notifications. Barely receive an SMS I use a 3rd party email app.

[dov1978]

Hallelujah! But howcome the Mate 10 Pro in the US is already on April and we're only now getting March?

[dov1978]

Well that excitement was short lived. The one feature I was really waiting on to let you wake and unlock the phone from sleep by saying Hey Google or OK Google I can't for the life of me get to work. Updated the Smart lock setting, re-trained my voice, checked all the voice settings again, tried rebooting, tried plugging into a charger in case it only works when charging but nothing. Anyone else let me know if they can get it to work once updated? Thanks



Edit: finally got it working after several hours trying everything under the sun. Still not sure what I changed but it works now and I'm a lot happier. Now if they could update the Always On Display to allow 3rd party notifications I'd be a LOT happier

It's just a screenshot of today's update finally arriving. Match security patch along with a few new features.

[brutos08]

Nice hopefully I get mine soon

Had the same issue. I would set it up, unlock the phone successfully with voice and then it would wake up but I would see the voice match setting in Google switch off. It would then stop working on the next attempt. Annoying!

What worked for me may be complete coincidence but did it in this order :

Went into phone settings, screen unlock, smart unlock, voice match. From there I retrained the voice and ensured the correct options for voice unlock were selected. Has worked from them, may be completely random (another forum had a user had it randomly start working after no initial success) but I'm much happier.

I agree, 3rd party notifications on AOD is next on wish list, would also like raise to wake.

Raise to wake or Double Tap to Wake would be amazing. Both of those like the Pixels would be perfect!

Did you lose the ability to say Hey Google after activating Voice Unlock? Before I was able to train the voice to use OK Google AND Hey Google but now only OK Google works. Not the end of the world but I'd got really used to using Hey Google all the time

Interesting, I too can't say Hey Google any longer. I've tended to use the OK command so it's not too much of an issue.

Unrelated, I view this on Tapatalk but it's really flaky with notifications when I've been quoted or a topic I'm subscribed to is updated. I have all the priority notifications etc and background running enabled but still not very consistent.

Now that you mention it I forgot I even had Tapatalk installed because its been so long since I got a notification. I'd get them all the time when I first installed it

I know it's an issue with the phone because my iPad gets all the notifications. It's almost as if, even though I have it to be set to run in background, that it may stop after a certain amount of time?

I won't have any problems now for the next few hours, now that I've opened and used tapatalk.

I've just added it to my Whitelist apps to see if that makes any difference. Worth a try

Initial thoughts are that battery life has taken a hit with this update. Standby is usually stunning but it lost 10% overnight and is definitely dropping faster through the day.

Play services registering as highest usage which isn't usually the case. Will see how it goes but wonder if the fact the phone is always in listening mode now has had an effect?

That's exactly the same as mine. I've noticed mine barely charging when navigating with Google Maps at work and thought it was maybe just because of the brighter weather we're getting here making the screen brighter if that makes sense but the battery monitor also shows Play Services using much more than anything else

[storvay]

Yes, bloody annoying to be honest, as battery life is one of the main reasons I love this phone.

Same issue with charging and using Maps. Grrr.....

The feature to say "Ok Google" to unlock is pointless as it only works when you press the power button on the side to wake the screen. When locked with the "always on" screen it doesn't do anything so I may as well turn that feature off.

This was what I was thinking Also it doesn't seem to work with the screen off so it's pointless really

I can't get it to work with AOD on but it now works fine with the screen off (after initial setup issues)

It does work. OK Google wakes the phone from complete sleep or with Always On Display on. No need to touch the phone at all. It took a fair bit of messing around to get it working but it's working flawlessly now

I have to press the power button to get it

[storvay]

Try setting it up from the smart lock settings on the phone and retrain your voice. Worked for me but may have just been coincidence.

Mine and Storvay's was the same after the update but after messing around resetting it up in Smart Lock settings etc we got it working properly. Neither of us know exactly how or what we did but it defo works. Just a pain in the arse and some trial and error but for me it's worth the effort as I use it a lot
