Good news reached us today from Huawei circles to Mate 8 problems with late notifications.
These problems presented themselves so that notifications are not displayed immediately as a push message, but only if the display has been reactivated. These problems occurred even when the power mode to "power" presented, the apps ran under EMUI as "resistant Apps" and ignored the imported Android 6 optimization for these apps. Even the last distributed
firmware update to version B152 managed no remedy.
Polluter of the problem was evident precisely this optimization option under Android 6; the Doze mode. This ensures that apps are added after a while in the Deep Sleep mode, and thus are no longer active. In this way, the battery life is optimized at Android. 6
The function is to be basically identical run with the known since EMUI 3 possibility Apps as protected apps, and this just does not protect in order to save battery power.
We had this already in our
Huawei Mate 8 Review detail about reported and criticized this circumstance. And for many users resulting from this problem one reason Mate 8 (for now) not to acquire, as the alerts but are simply an essential function.
Particularly annoying problem was user for all Android Wear. For by that sent the Wear app in deep sleep, or a total of the notifications were not really pushed, they came not on the wearable.
Thus, an essential function of the watch fell off.
According to our information the intended firmware update, which then also contains the fix Mitte already be rolled out by the end of March. This must always be borne in mind that after you've identified the problem and customized firmware, also held internal quality control and, in particular, that the firmware needs to be released by the operator.
Before a firmware on the market may naturally want to make sure that this does not trouble the mobile network formed and initially consider this, each firmware Vodafone & Co..
Whether other new features with this firmware will come to the Mate 8, is not yet known. In firmwares from other regions, the Health app was introduced as a new function with the latest updates, for example. Here indeed remains only to wait until the firmware is then finally rolled.
Once we get this in the fingers, we will report and of course this is possible for all if the company here as usual with us.
