    I meant the update.

    What's the problem with free WiFi. Wifi is WiFi.

    Read back through my posts ��������



    Ive been reading through this thread and cant see any of your posts?

    Is this just a problem you have encountered? Or have several others? Ive searched google for the issue and the only thing that came up was a post by you asking about the problem. There are other wifi issues but not the same as yours?

    I'm just asking because you're making it out to be a wide spread deal breaker issue, where as I cant find much info on it via google.

    I wouldn't bother, posting in wrong thread and quite unpleasant.

    Got a reply from Huawei UK this morning and here is the reply, if should you whatsoever be not able to connect to work, Maccers, Hospital wifi - Follow this :D

    In response, we would like to let you know that sometimes when you try to connect to a public network, for security reasons, you are not allowed to access that specific network.

    You can try to login using Modzilla Firefox. Please download it on your phone and install it. After that, copy the link from Chrome and paste it into the Modzilla and register.

    Before connecting to Wi-Fi, open Chrome > tap on the Three dots > Settings > Site Settings > Allow pop-ups.


    After doing this, connect to Wi-Fi and check if the browser opens automatically requesting credentials or registration. If not, open Chrome and check if it redirects to the login site.

    Please make sure you have forced stop the Chrome application before you open Modzilla. To do so go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Apps > open Chrome from the list > Force stop.

    After that reset the Network settings > Settings > System >Reset > Network settings reset > Network settings reset again to confirm.

    Finally, open Wi-Fi and connect using Modzilla Firefox.

    :P Hmmmm - Have'nt tried it yet fingers crossed!

    I have the phone 4 months and it's fantastic. The camera really is amazing. I had a family wedding and christening the last 2 weeks and the photos I took from the P20 Pro are fantastic.

    My husband has the P20 (not pro) and has had no problems whatsoever, either with the update to Android 9, and no problems connecting to public WiFi which he uses a fair bit. As an aside, I do keep reminding him he has 60g of data a month, but old habits die hard I suppose :) Always has his bloody WiFi on

    Hi folks, looking for a bit of advise on this, maybe its a known issue.. Only have the phone a month or so.

    Some typical issues im having:
    Whatsapp group messages having a slight delay (could be 1 or 2 minutes)
    Whatapp Group that I've muted, occasionally getting a notification sound
    Whatsapp notifications on occasion different to what I've set it to (I've one specifically for d'wife!)
    Whatsapp notifications not sounding fully (only a part of it)
    Email notifications are delayed (could be several minutes)
    Email notifications not sounding fully (only a part of it)

    I'd be satisfied it was Whatsapp issue only for the fact its happening with email(Gmail) notifications also.

    All the above since the latest update. Sounds like I need a new phone actually :D

    Any thought on this? Cheers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,220 ✭✭✭maximoose


    Since the update I found a lot of notifications going wonky for me - but more with delays or no notification at all rather than sounds

    Found going to Settings > Battery > App launch and turning all sliders quickly returned things to normal

    Facebook hasn't been given permission to access Bluetooth but I'm getting this power drain notification from my phone manager. Can anyone explain why without getting too tinfoil hatty?

    Picked up a love mei case recently for the pro ,it's a tough case like an ottetbox only on steroids ,instead of plastic and silicon ,you get tempered glass , aluminium frame front and back and you actually need an allen key to screw your case together sealing your phone inside ,
    Seriously heavy and wider dimensions compared to the actual phone
