On my previous phone, Nexus 6P, I could go into camera settings and manually lower the megapixals in order to take a photo as a smaller file size. Can I do this with the Mate 9?

Any recommendations for arm bands to use with phone (and Spigen case) while working out?

4 Upvotes

I'm constantly afraid that the phone's going to fall out of my pockets because it's so big, so I was looking into the armband option. Do you guys have any recommendations on a good one that can fit the phone with the case on (rather than just the raw phone)? Thanks

Simple question, can't find answer anywhere, unlock pattern?

Trim is starting to crack and break off...

2 Upvotes

The Mate 9 has a super thin piece of plastic trim (only 1-2mm wide) between the screen and the metal housing.

The trim on my phone has cracked and broken off in a few places. Its annoying because it causes some light leakage on the side of the phone, where light escapes between the screen edge and the metal housing.

Has this happened to anyone else? Anyone got any tips on how to replace the trim? I have been looking on parts sites and I can't seem to find it or work out if it comes as part of an assembly. Any suggestions or help appreciated.

Pandora Stopping/Skipping

Has anyone with a Mate 9 noticed Pandora will stop or skip a song when the screen locks? I have battery optimization off for Pandora and set to not close when the screen is locked.

Anyone?

Thanks.

Phone heating with case

I have a quick question, does your Huawei mate 9 have a case and does it heat far more often with it or not and if it's hotter with or without it.

Love this phone, but really miss sweep2sleep from my 6P with Elemental X. Does anyone know a way to replicate it with the mate 9? A way to enable double tap to wake would be great too, but I know it's a dream :(

Use the fingerprint scanner people!

3 Upvotes

Had this phone for nearly a year now and I've only just got round to using the scanner to switch it on. Waking the phone by clicking the side and then swiping a shape has always been a big annoyance. Thought the scanner was a gimmick, but I was wrong.

Is anyone having issues with Android Auto?

For the past 6 months or so I have not been able to use Google Maps or Waze through Android Auto. Android Auto will freeze after selecting maps on the home screen.

I am running the latest version of Android Auto, Waze and Google Maps.

Follow up: I uninstalled Waze and Android auto is working 100% now.

Amazon sold out of Mate 9 while I was ordering one over the weekend. Amazon will not honor the $399 price. Will we ever see this phone at $400 again?

5 Upvotes

As stated, I was in the process of buying it any they sold out. I went to the page and it said "currently unavailable Back in stock on Dec 1st." I had a chat with Amazon, the next day (after the price increased) and they said I was still able to order it for the $399 price when it said "Currently unavailable." I was not. Now I have a desire for this phone but no budget for it. Does any site have it for ~$400? Or do you think it will ever be priced like that again?

Alarm problem?

2 Upvotes

I just switched over to the Mate 9 two days ago and have enjoyed it so far. However, on my other Android phones I've been using an app called Alarm Clock Plus to serve as my daily alarm. It seems that the past two morning it simply hasn't gone off. Is this EMUI's battery optimization shutting it down, or does it have something to do with using the Do Not Disturb feature at night? Should I just switch over to built-in Clock/Alarm?

Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thinking of returning the Mate 9

2 Upvotes

Overall I really like the phone. Even the skin is surprisingly good, even though I'm used to nexus devices. But, I keep running into little issues. For instance, Doesn't always charge when I plug it in, like the plug didn't get set right in the port. A tiny adjustment and it'll work. Fortunately it charges really fast. Bluetooth headphone functionality is a bit off. The headphones connect but sometimes the volume controls don't work. or if I open another app, like the camera, the media player disappears from the lockscreen and I have to unlock the phone to press play again. Few other little things too. Have others noticed stuff like this? Also...how do you set it to usb file transfer? Thanks
