    Bugs / Issues thread

    App switching, and click on the left or the right app (rather than the middle) takes me to the correct app fine. So maybe this was fixed in the recent update? Never noticed a problem before though, and it certainly works on mine. If you still have issues, maybe check for updates. I don't use...

    Reverse wireless charging

    I've shown it to a few people on the iPhone 8, iPhone X and a Samsung S9. Definitely worked with all of those phones, I didn't get an RFID tag message. Maybe turn NFC off to see if that makes a difference? (Although I have that on for Google Pay) Disappointed the Watch GT doesn't have wireless...

    DO not disturb doesn’t work

    Ok, its in "Define priority interruptions" in the "Do not disturb" menu, assuming that's the mode you have selected. In there you can say whether you want calls from all contacts, or favourites for example.

    DO not disturb doesn’t work

    Have you made sure the "Interrupt for calls from my address book" isn't turned on. Ok, so its not called exactly that, but you get the idea.

    If only the UI wasn't so ugly

    Hang on, you don't have the phone, but you're criticising how ugly the icons are - lol I normally use Nova, but i've stuck with standard launcher and dark theme. Looks pretty nice to me. Clearly all icons look different as they are from different vendors, but the Huawei ones don't stick out in...

    New Firmware Camera Test

    Before buying this phone I watched several video comparisons on youtube, and the stabilisation in 1080p looked really solid. No jelly effect or anything. So either it just needs a firmware update and the demo models were using something even newer, or those videos were taken under different...

    No Ai cinema on my Mate 20 pro

    Glad someone started this thread, I thought I was being thick not being able to find this AI cinema option. Disappointed its not there yet, but no way i'd return the phone. Very impressed so far, its amazing. We'll get he update soon, don't worry. (UK too)

    Strange *click* sound... Anyone else?

    I'll answer here too, since you also mentioned it on a screen protector thread. Yes, I have noticed the same faint click, but only when on mute. It's not bothering me that much, but it shouldn't be there. Hopefully can be fixed with a software update. Assuming it starts trying to fire up the...

    Fingerprint sensor won't work through glass screen protector.

    Thought that was just me. If volume is muted and something tries to use sound, you hear a very faint click.

    Huawei Mate 20 Pro fingerprint

    Just tried with Natwest in the UK. Works fine with fingerprint. Somewhat worryingly I absent mindedly unlocked the phone with my left thumb earlier, and it worked! despite registering my right thumb. Unless my fingerprints are really that symmetrical. Can't get it to work with the wrong thumb...

    Does the Mate 20 Pro support Google Assistant?

    Yep. Long press on virtual home button takes you straight in to the Google Assistant. Or a swipe left takes you to the Google Now style cards, and you can get to the assistant from there. As part of the setup process you can also set it up to recognise your voice even when the phone is locked.

    Is There A Screen Protector Fitted To The Mate 20 Pro?

    Well, there isn't one fitted out of the box, but they do exist. Amazon has a few, and one claims to be a 3D hot fix that also covers the sides. Also a bit confused why youtubers are getting a plastic case in their unboxing videos, I didn't get one with mine (arrived today). Unless UK market is...

    7.0 Update - Long press on square home touch button no longer works

    Looks like they may have changed it to 2 finger pulldown to get to settings, which matches what my old Nexus 5 used to do. I used to really miss the difference between 1 and 2 finger pulldown upgrading to the G5. But now i've got used to not having it, so have to retrain my brain again :-) It...

    Nougat update has arrived in UK

    Got it last night on EE (OTA). 1.5GB took a while to download though :-) Haven'y yet noticed a whole load of difference. Some of the visuals (like notifications, and pull down menu) look a bit cleaner. Battery status is shown on the always on screen which is useful. Not many apps seem to...

    Color not right on camera and can't see screen outside to take pictures

    Just looked at some of my pictures with red in, and its definitely red. If wide angle camera shows red, but normal camera shows orange, i'd say you may have a defective camera unit. Orange is actually red with some green in in light terms. Does white show slightly greenish on the camera too...
