And it seems like Huawei is pretty serious about not rooting this phone so you lose a lot of phone features including the sim card slots. All I had to do was to connect the phone to a laptop using cable and use Huawei software to roll back to the previous update, that restored the IMEI number, and I was able to update again to the latest version and everything worked just fine. Honestly it was an annoying experience but I am happy to have my phone back. It is still as perfect after 5 years of continuous use, I only had to change the battery once.

My only problem now, after 5 years, is are the side buttons for the volume and for taking screenshots. But it's been five years, and I've dropped this phone several times, but thats the only problem I got.

              Well honestly, I had a very bad experience with this phone (still have it till now, but searching for another one)..
              I had so much issues using it:
              - the charging slot was damaged and had to change it
              - the charger itself is not working properly
              - the vibration sensor was broken
              - the sim slot is also damaged and can't use it anymore, so now I'm just using it for gaming
              - the camera was broken, and the focus was not working anymore neither
              Those are the major issues I encountered. But for a phone worth 900$, you should usually expect a lot more reliable and better quality...

                          I was a Samsung boy all my life...they got rid of IR blasters and headphone jacks (which i don't mind now there BT available).
                          Already had a Huawei Mate 10 and now Mate 20 Pro. No complaints.

                                      Great phone and last one TOP Huawei Mate model with google apps.

                                      There is only one disadvantage for me. Selfie cam has fixed focus to concrete distance from lens. Photos taken far from selfie lens are little blurry.

                                      In these days still great phone!!!!!
