Just about 2 months after the release of B929 Android 4.2.2 firmware for the Ascend Mate, Huawei now has an another firmware update ready for you Ascend Mate owners. Don’t get your hopes up because this new firmware B930 is still based on Android 4.2.2 just like all other previous firmwares. Even though Ascend Mate is equipped with same hardware as Ascend P6, Huawei doesn’t seem to care about upgrading Mate to Android 4.4 like they did for the P6.
This firmware was made available on Huawei’s Chinese support site, instead of adding it on Emotion UI web site as usual. And of course its for the Ascend Mate China Unicom version, but you can install it on your international Ascend Mate as you might already know by now. Published changelog is short but we guess there might be more changes than the ones mentioned. Below is the translated changelog published on download page,
Updated content: ( rough translation )
1 fixed boot navigation Huawei account login problems
2. fixed driving mode setting screen displays incomplete problems.
3. fixed SMS conversation did not remove the information screen refresh problem
4. fixed Google security vulnerabilities
5. Recordings list add m4a format
Here are the details of this firmware,

just go to any app store (not google play) and install google play services and google play store and you are good to go.
Is it worth it to upgrade to this version? And if I update will all my contacts and apps be gone?
Hi, dear guys i just have one problem with this update, after upgrade to this 930 version my phone does not support 3G internet, i just could use 2G, is there anyone know how could i fix this problem?
I had installed this ROM and below are my observations:
1. Google Apps are not included with this. Installing Google Play apk file would do.
2. Location services and location reporting using WiFi does NOT work. However, GPS seems to be working.
3. Permission manager is included with this ROM so that you can control (i.e. allow/reject) each and every permission that normally an app asks when installing from Google Play Store. It’s fabulous.
4. While set up for the first time, you have to accept an ambiguous T&C from Huawei by which you expressly allow Huawei to track your location, network usage etc. There is no way to bypass this.
5. FM radio is not included in this ROM
6. When you turn on location access, apart from google, you also need to allow Huawei to access your location.
7. None of the launchers from Google Play Store would work with this ROM. Emotion UI is the only default launcher that you can use.
So, for quite obvious reasons, I am rolling back to the previous Int’l stock ROM
Hi, what is the procedure to roll back from 4.4 to 4.2
Hi i have MT1-U06V100R001C00B223 cell phone it have a problum that the calender date never change in i cone always showes me 28 why no idea and when this firmware going to up date my one is 4.1.2.
