Credits for AirPods integration on mOS10!

Native support for all the functionalities I care about for the Airpods is here at last (probably been since recent mOS 10 update)

Since it also uses magic capsule to show info and connection to the Airpods as specific BT headset, not some generic type with the headset icon and 0 info on Airpods.

This is probably Honor's strong sides, compatibility, I got this though AFTER Apple iPhone pairing and updating, that's how I learned of this and Im enjoying my Airpods even more now with automatic ear detection!

Just take them out and put them back in, no more manual tappings for a 300USD ear pieces and magnetic chargable case initially, 1 yr after release lf the 3rd gen was when I bought them, they are still up towards 250USD today and Im not surprised, reliability+simplicity with advanced tech and engineering is what Apple is producing.

Getting good vibes from this, at last, Honor 200P+400P would be my last Honor phones may need to be reclaimed if their software game gets up!

This all before Android 17 and mOS11 also, I totally am satisfied with staying on those for both phones, since I notice slight lags already upon bootups on control center when dragging it down the 1st-2nd times, even on the 400P which was fine until recent features update.

Android 18+ with more agentic AI will only make the chip throttle too much imo IF they dont somehow optimize the coming OS and apps so its 5x-10x more power efficient.

(Which it is for 8 gen 5+, while gen 4 elite is clear thermal baby syndromes)

Please do share you opinions, no need to have any apple products to get this gap between the different techs, closing in on each other, not only visually but the systems.

Panorama shots

Some refreshing post about PANORAMA SHOTS, WTF happened?

Thought UWA shots would be the worst with distortions but PANO is worse on both my 200P+400P during night time at least.

Comparing to a Honor 8 and Samsung Note 4 which does better on panorama shots+keeping optical clarity quality.

Im guessing its the AI processing?

Or modern smartphone camera setups is further away from good panoramas since 2016-2018 era?

Ads on Honor devices, budget - flagships.... User error after all

Actual constructive posting about an issue got me looking into it:

I have noticed how ads actually are coming from not turning off settings in the Appmarket app!

Turn them all off and you wont need to mess with the DNS.

Had them turned off since day 1, flipped them on just to see what differences.

Ads in menus and stuff, system manager and becoming like how Redmi cheapskate loaded ads phones were like haha 🤣

Turn off all those personalized ads at least, those who want to contribute, leave experience feedback enabled.

I also see these options in some other Honor system apps, so check EVERYWHERE before even posting and might save everybody time, energy and wasted effort potentially in here.

Left the subreddit since I dont want all spam posts daily about updates and OCD issues, which triggers my OCD xD

im glad and content with the recent features now, I was satisfied with the phones as they were when bought also, so its all a bonus for me.

Dont get this bot inspirated cry/spam/complaint/help without enough context/info posts anymore and less stressful 🙏

Know its hard to get it but its user error xD

If not accepted all terms and everything blindly/stressfully when setting up phone, no ads would show up.

I took my time, exploring the phones when I got them since day 1.

So when ppl started posting about ads... Got afraid that Honor is dog now only...

Then I reflected, I havent seen them, not even once, though i get prompts now and then when I open appmarket to enable personalized ads "to get the best recommendations for my experience" which READS good but for me "accept this if you want bloat/ads", cancel tapped always but for curiosity I accepted one time just recently.....

Voila, ofc ads every menu haha, without even going to DNS settings, I went into appmarket settings to see that my previously disabled show personalized ads were enabled now...

Turned off and will live with tapping cancel from time to time instead of using AdGuard as DNS.

Prefer Cloudflare on router level for home network.

Hopefully ppl are drinking enough water for hot days globally!

Magic Capsule mOS10, only black background?

Hey

Ive seen all mass posting about the magic capsule but mine is pitch black, tried switching to light mode and change to a wallpaper with colors.

Still black magic capsule background.

Is this because they are global/HK C636 and Global UK C430?

Also, after the recent update that optimized camera further.

H200P zooming is smoother, H400P in the same environment (dark with artifical lights outdoor park).

The H400P after reboot, still lags a lot on zooming for photos, for videos its "normal".

200P zooming is as usual, maybe little noticeable but negligible lags.

Is this cause of 400P camera pipeline with 200MP main sensor adds more AI workload?

Only explanation I can think of why the 200P have no issues with its zooming.

I assume not even 100x will come for the 400P?

Even if its digital zoom, cool if hardware is capable.

The 200x for flagships and 600 series is too much imo, for macroshots it would have practical applications but dont see it for main sensor photo mode.

H200P+H400P light vs dark mode users

Hey

​

As title says, what do you think is pros and cons of running light vs dark mode.

​

i run a wallpaper with native resolution in #000000 for minimal burn in and screen power consumption.

​

Gboard wallpaper, same.

​

Even magic capsule goes pure black with my color settings wherever I can change to non powered pixels technically.

​

I know about sub pixels and pixels swapping, still Im a extreme power user.

​

App drawer was a grace instead of android home screens for me 🙏

Especially with ability to also sort all apps into folders.

​

Was little glitchy with 200P, ghost folders and duplicate app icons with only 1 working.

​

Seems to have been fixed now that 400P also got the most recent mOS10 update.

​

Please feel free to share your home page and what your personal preferences are!

H400P choppy photo zooming after latest mOS10 update

​

​

Noticed how choppy my zooming in photo mode is now after update...

​

While the 200P is still smooth.

​

​

Video record zooming is smooth for 30/60fps.

​

Anyone else with this problem after the update that should have fixed the camera problems 🤣

H400P C636E3>E4

Hey

​

Update is cool but noticed how even the 8 gen 3 chip is lagging during startup on drag down menu, like the 200P did since android 15.

​

Seems 8 gen 3 chips limits really are good for 17 and not 18 which will probably heat, consume battery and shorten hardware lifetime more than necessary.

​

Will be interesting to see how more devices update, please share if you also have a HK/SEA/Global NZ/Australia region

c636E3R3P2.

​

Had the ending since I got it and never changed in any updates, now suddenly Im in E3>E4.

​

Saw someone else also happening same thing, did we change to another rollout server because of our physical geolocation?

​

Then theories about Honor fucking up with pushing wrong updates is possible if they can push different region update on their devices.

​

​

BUT the performance, anyone else notice the lag on 400P right after startup?

Its still performing but the background load is more enough to start lagging the dragdown menu.

​

Anyone have theory on what it might be?

​

It introduced many things in this update some not even consenting, AppSelector being the big one 🤣

​

90% fell for it incl me, instead of taping "later", "NEXT"=INSTALLS "ESSENTIAL APPS"on the phone.

​

Uninstall the AppSelector itself also AppMarket somehow is enforcing itself to be the default store updater 🤨 only on my 400P that have the app natively.

​

200P only had google play store until I sideloaded in AppMarket, extracted APK from my 400P and just crossed fingers hoping it would work.

​

Almost flawlessly, just asks some extra questions, non system app so have to turn off advanced protection on the device momentarily for any honor app update on the appmarket, otherwise its useless.

​

Cant even find the latest game manager , not even using "search for updates" within game manager "you have the latest version" (even when I had a version that was pre 200P release.

​

Both the 200P+400P, support cant help with APK for update, just telling me to try register new Honor ID in device region and maybe then it will surface 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

​

​

If you are considering buying a Honor device and read this far, do consider what I've written as part OCD part frustration during updating and using the new/updated features.

Voice cloning came before the model came so it was useless until 2-3 weeks the language model dropped for the feature.

​

All again, lags boys and girls with 400P and have gotten the latest feature mOS10 update

​

H400P C636 HK/SEA

​

​

What system resources do you guys have on the 400P with most recent mOS10 update?

.179 with voice cloning detection that got downloaded.

​

While I notice the on device model for translations also since there is call translation natively on this model.

​

200P got it after not recent update but one before the most recent.

Glad and it works just as 400P but no system resources installed, does it mean the function on 200P is completely cloud based?

​

While 400P can/does it on device with partial cloud resources?

AI deepfake & voice cloning detection

Hello fellow users

​

So, these 2 cloud based and on-device AI features, Ive tried working out if my country has been spared from all these deepfake and voice cloning calls.

​

It did give reasonable answers, here it's more about digital ID theft and scamming on different fronts.

Since I have the features but need to change regions and use English as a system language for them to support the features.

​

Ofc, many features are not compliant with respective countries regulations, hence so many different builds/firmwares.

​

Getting liable for not one but several users on Honor/other brands AI services and features for malicious intents, that is where it destroys for most of us.

​

So, have any of you detected any deepfake and or voice cloning being used in your location/during travels to other locations?

​

Apparently not battery consuming to use and have them activated, Im just baffled at how we have been spared of AI generated content for scamming and it's matter of time before these kind of tools>essentials in any smart/connected device.

​

Trying to weight having them activated at the cost of not actual location, to activate them and eventual benefits since its not widespread in EU... Yet, strong regulations making recording and generating other ppl's voices being GDPR if not something else, while rest of the world dont have universal personal integrity above government laws.

​

Have a wonderful weekend!

Gotta stop tapping on my phones.... friday NIGHT and since update 8hrs ago, customization and just feeling around for too much time now.

​

Appreciate sharing your thoughts of these features and how common/rare they are.

Bypass charging and custom charging limit for us with hidden battery options

Use game manager and turn on bypass charging and set the limit you want.

Latest version of it on APKMirror have the function and it works fully. Im amazed how it passes battery completely when the set limit is achieved.

​

Anyone else with another workaround?

Honor probably wont fix this for us with devices not natively showing all battery options in settings menu.

Honor 200 series users, especially Pro model, battery capacity and date for 1st usage?

C430 H200P UK region

.144

​

Closing in on 400 cycles with my 200P 😔

​

Got it at 312 cycles, activated October 24, 2024, not early device BUT heavily cycled and usage....

​

Lucky hardware is top notch still, battery lost 13-15% capacity compared to me with 2-5% loss maximum during 10 months usage before selling....

​

Definitely not 300+ cycles either ..

Ive used mine for 8 months almost, Ive accumulated.... 80 cycles during this time with light-short heavy sessions but never pushing hardware to limits.

​

40-80% charging with 5V 1A maximum (best factor for longevity+lifespan of batteries in general, low and slow filling, all for the battery chemistry to be as less stressed as possible).

​

Usually go 8-10yrs with all my previous phones before replacement, 3-5yrs for some but heavy usage on small capacity device does that, scalable.

​

Appreciate if others want to share how they experience their battery health and capacity now since 1-2yrs of usage, mostly interested in 2 yrs users/500+ cycles if possible...

Disable all unrestricted data access for all apps, including system apps for less battery consumption?

Found in Apps>Three dots corner>unrestricted data access.

​

By default Google play services and some other system apps have it enabled.

​

After 24h of disabling, havent noticed any negative changes yet.

​

Get app update push notices, social media notices etc.

I manually sync my google account, so auto syncs are all disabled.

​

Any other harm I should think of by turning off this?

Maybe will get slightly more battery time.

​

Have a great week!

Way to set custom charging from game manager

Hello folks!

​

Ive tried previous night to add Sleep cycle app as a game for game manager.

​

Since my C430 200P or C636 H400P do NOT have custom charging limit options.

​

Had to sideload even newer game manager APK since Honor support told me, only way to update it is through Honor AppStore, which dont even show Game manager for me.

​

They then went ahead and told me to try create a new Honor ID account for HK region if it had anything to do with regions.

Try again in AppStore....

​

Ive tried through game manager's "search for updates"=you have the latest version 🤦‍♂️

​

Can confirm that 200P at least with bypass charging option and keeping screen on while charging, set to 80% and verified, -38mAh during the whole sleep instead and no charging of battery.

​

AccuBattery shows "0maH" being used when I have bypass charging 83% battery charge and set custom max charging limit to 80%.

​

​

Honor... Really wants its users to find workarounds than plainly use phone for modern applications.

Feels great to be able to power the device with power adapter instead of battery even if its proprietary buffer needed.

​

Still amazing there seems to be hardware potentials being gatekeeped by software....

​

Anyone else without custom charging limits found other ways to utilize healthier charging routines?

​

Have a great week!

I dont know anymore about Honor and its support

This is what official HK support replies when I report the phone loops once like it did before successful boot.

Back in march security update and google play stuck on 1st February.

They made google withdraw the google play update instead as a "fix".

Now they are responding with "problem with Google and System".

When I told them the majority of users have experienced fixed 1 May GP update and 1 May Android security WHEN the new features update have been installed.

Like my H200P C430, 1st May on both now.

Somehow they just disregard any problems and try to put burden on other parties than themselves which is the root cause.

"Just waiting for the update to rollout since it fixed the update issues, withdrawing it isnt a solution and I hope the update will come for C636 HK/SEA devices very soon, H400P should also get bi monthly security updates which its been delayed now ever since the android 16 and mOS10 first update which was on schedule"

"Please keep an eye out"

So, this is just a post to show how far customer support goes for aftersales inquiries and reporting.

Reported Honor Health not registering the training time correctly, 3/30min daily always somehow even when I take 10k+ steps and 400kcal burned at least....

Still not fixed....

The Honor 8 was great 2017-2018, the health app worked much better back then 🤦‍♂️😇

Just an insight in aftersales situations, if you want great hardware but sloppy customer service and software update policies, Honor is a great choice.

H400P C636 Superdynamic screen + Intensive screen

So, how much more does these features draw?

Anyone done any analysis on them?

Only Ive done is compare side to side with my H200P without Intensive screen enabled on Youtube (H200P dont have superdynamic screen video enhancement).

I do see the differences but for me, it all comes down to power consumption.

It would be great if Honor would make some kind of fast switch for these features or what do you guys think?

Turn on/off more practically than going through settings every time?

Subtle color + refresh rate + contrasts improvements is what I notice.

Might report in as feedback if enough users feel about a more practical switch in UI or supported apps to turn on/off more swiftly.

H400P C636 HK user, any other C636 "Global"/HK users?

Am I the sole user of this batch of C636 devices, allegedly for HK market, shadely sold worldwide at the same time.

The reseller claimed no manufacturer warranty, only 6 seller warranty...

Probably the bundle device early bird or something, since it was sold as brand new to me with prior activation on Honor ID, probably for the free bundled items.

Since they refuse to provide original purchase of proof, grey import and its downsides, otherwise than pro like 6000mah, slightly degraded despite 0 cycles at delivery.

Estimated around 5800mah now, while my 200P with 380 cycles still have around 4800mah/5200mah.

Unknown storage time but first activation in October, ordering date beginning of december.

"Brand new" huh my ass, trying to cover up original seals broken with "customs tape".

Really lame dealership but luckily it sorted out by changing the "brand new" port structure and daughter board for it since it was a manufacturer defect.

2 months into use, vertical play as if the port was heavily used over 8 yrs.

Costed me 1/3rd of phone value and it does not retain any brand new integrity anymore.

IP 68&69? Byebye, drop and impact resistance with SGS rating?

Byebye among many other things, still I held hope for Honor...

Just to stab me in the back by non serious reseller + Honor as OEM , not even accepting invoice paid with original box and IMEI markings + my honor app warranty certificate + physical warranty card certificate.

Nah, I even suggested for them to expand for more market shares since it's not even well established in the EU, Germany and UK as sole providers and only within their domestic regions.

The rest have to rely on grey imported devices if not some carrier deal which there isnt if there isnt a official Honor affiliate in the country, then its Mi/Xiaomi.

Cant wait for the 2027 EU requirement of removable batteries again for easier change of batteries.

End of rant but also curious if there really is other ppl with same batch/region device and delayed on updates, going against the bi monthly security updates even.

Their marketing may be to nische now but if hardware really holds up.... Still software and software update policies need serious intervention for better success.

​

The feature is activated, list shows no supported apps so I assumed only google dialer will work then but no, tried tapping magic capsule during phone calls, nothing happening.

Whatsup with this? Haha fake AI feature?

Is 400P going to get it also on top of the AI deepfake detection hopefully but working?

Anyone can confirm if it works on a H200P/200 series?

Is it maybe honor dialer needed? 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Honor 200P C430 .144 update VoWiFi

After update from. 126>144, no more toggles but its highly carrier/operator related, did some Troubleshooting and this carrier indeed hides the toggles while going to Vimla they surface again.

Though in all this, I have noticed many updates/added elements that wasnt there before and trying to showcase some of them.

Anyone else stumbled upon this hiding of VoLTE+VoWifi toggling? Not specifically with updates but carrier switching?

Both operators does support VoWifi calling so Hallon is failing on sending carrier feature flags and or the Honor devices have trouble with reciveing the flags from this particular carrier which uses 3 infrastructure.

Global network, not domestic little one.

Will see what customer service can do, probably IMS reset or sending specific flags for my numbers for 2 Honor phones.
