Since the last HMS update, the fingerprint sensor and options are gone. Not a trace of it.

On the P30 Pro, only allows EMUI 11 and EMUI 12 on HiSuite. Quite risky to try manually installing another firmware at this point so I've stuck with EMUI 12.

Sarmad, 28 Apr 2024any difference is camera performance , in previous versions ?
and can we downgrade ?
without root I'm not sure of camera performance to previous firmwares. Looking at comments from others who've had it from 2019 said the performance of the camera is worse.
I believe this is the case because by default on EMUI 12, it doesn't make use of the 40MP. You'd have to select JPG-L under "Pro" in the camera or "High Res" under more to get the best photo possible. Mine takes great photos with highest resolution enabled.
Dolby Atmos equalizer doesn't have a great impact from observation compared to 9.1.0 on my secondary P20 to really get acoustics.

It's a nice phone. Huawei limits you now to EMU 11 and 12 once you have updated. This phone performs best under EMUI 9.1, though of course, the security patch is way outdated.

for me, its shows AI Search, whether you swipe from right or left half, doesn't matter
when you swipe down from top then its opens notifications only
Tried using Nova and Microsoft Launcher, works perfect but idle battery drain is not as good, I assume

Kristian , 25 Apr 2024YesI would say it merely depends on what you wanna use the phone for. If you only sit in youtube and netflix, and occasionally check the weather and email, you're good to go, on the other hand, if you use a lot banking and online shopping features, I strongly suggest to get a newer phone. It all comes down to security, which Huawei is sadly not offering. Not on the Europe market anyways. I know it's a whole other deal in China.

Sarmad, 16 Apr 2024swiping down open AI search instead of notifications, hate that So I installed the Microsoft... moreSwiping down works two ways, the left half of the screen, and the right half of the screen. Left for search and right for notifications. At least that's how it was for me after the last update. Took a while to get used to it, but was not that bad. Don't remember if i had a look into it having different options or not. Gonna keep it as a backup phone for now. Already enjoying my new beast :)

The best phone long lasting .. i have it for 5 years now and still runs like new. Huawei makes the best working phones .. Phone signal always good changes from provider yo provider country to country smoothly no need restart like Samsung ..

So I installed the Microsoft Launcher, which works best. double tap to lock(Accessibility Access) also works like charm and FOD too
but the Microsoft Launcher seems to eat battery ? any idea ?

Very fine phone. Got one a couple months after the release, so just under five years ago and been using it ever since. The battery is still like the day I took it out of the box. I'm not a hectic user, so there are times, that it still lasts up to 5 days on me, but with heavy usage I reckon it's about 1.5 to 2. I have no complaints other than one. The only reason I'm choosing a new phone is the lack of updates. I'm from Europe. This phone deserves another software upgrade. And not just software, security too. It merely gets a security patch every 1.2 years or so if lucky. And there is still no talk about transferring the EMUI 13 to it as well, only shady replies. So I've decided to part ways with this magnificent BEAST. You have served me well. I salute you.

Fantastic good phone, amazingly good cameras to this day, groundbreaking tech that will not be forgotten. P30 Pro a classic phone.
