Huawei Nova 9 (HarmonyOS) facing heat issue in outdoor condition
Huawei Nova 9 series, is one of the best smartphone lineups of 2021 and some of its users are facing display issue in sun. The smartphone launched with a powerful rear camera setup, big battery, super-fast charging, and a HarmonyOS operating system in China.
Huawei Nova 9: Display issue
Presently, the series is running on the April 2022 HarmonyOS update with build number 2.0.1.235. The update comes with some new additions as well as system stability and security improvements.
Still, post-April 2022 update several consumers have reported that whenever they are using their smartphone under the scorching sun, the Huawei Nova 9 display automatically gets dimmed. Although the user has turned off the auto-brightness adjustment option. Still, the device showed an issue every time he stepped out on a bright sunny day.
Whenever the user enters in the dark the screen automatically gets bright, but after a while, in the hot sun, the screen again gets dim and even more – darker.
Responses:
If you are also a Huawei Nova 9 series user and dealing with the same situation. Here we have some solutions posted by some users which may help you to get rid of the issue.
Solution-1
After visiting the Huawei nova 9 series phone screen issue, the Huawei moderator suggested that whenever the smartphone’s temperature increases the screen brightness automatically gets dim. Because the device should reduce the brightness appropriately in order to reduce the heat to prevent overheating.
Solution-2
Another user replied that the smartphone’s automatic brightness is too slag, and it is estimated that it is quite far from the standard curve. There is no heat dissipation, and the temperature control is also very cowardly. The increased brightness will not be maintained for a long time, and it will become dark. the smartphone will not heat up.
If you are overlooking the same circumstances then we recommend you to follow the above-mentioned solutions or take your device to the Huawei service center.
Huawei recently started pushing November 2022 software update for the P30 Pro smartphone in the global market but there’s no effective fix to a camera issue. Users reached us and mentions that the camera focus bug remains persistent even after installing November 2022 software update.
Since May, we’re reporting about Huawei P30 Pro and its camera issue. However, Huawei should have fixed it by now. Since it’s still unfixed, consumers are having trouble taking pictures with their Huawei P30 Pro.
According to the information, there are various bugs and issue spotted in the Huawei P30 Pro. These include loss of focus (automatic) while focusing on a subject, and unable to focus on a subject or a scene.
In some cases, the Huawei P30 Pro camera app is randomly crashing and it’s quite annoying.
November 2022 Update:
Past rollout reveals that Huawei P30 Pro is receiving November 2022 EMUI software update with improved system security. However, the changelog doesn’t mention any specific fixes for the camera or related features.
Software issue:
To be mentioned, the majority of the Huawei P30 Pro users found this issue after upgrading to the latest EMUI version, EMUI 12. They stated that the phone was working fine just before we installed the newest update.
So it could be a software issue and a patch or improvements update may fix it. However, we don’t a clue what Huawei is doing in this matter.

Check for updates:
Meanwhile, we suggest you keep an eye on the software update section to see if there are a patch or software updates rolls out for this specific camera bug.
After installing a patch for the SuperHub feature, my Huawei smartphone with HarmonyOS 3 acted weirdly due to a bug. Because it has lapsed a feature that was there and I like the most in this operating system.
Following the update, the app snippets also known as app swipe-up gestures vanished from the home screen. I was shocked to see that happen.
As you can see in the screenshot, the bar under the app icons disappeared. That’s not it, the feature also stopped working. This was quite strange, as I thought that the feature has now been removed.
However, the solution was easy to knit and it was right before my very eyes. All I have to do is to restart the phone, which restored the feature as well as its user interface appearance.
Bug:
Bugs and glitches are usual to see in any development software or feature that could appear at any time. Since Huawei is continuously adding new features to HarmonyOS, we can expect these minor glitches to shock us, just like this one.
Be noted, the bug appeared after I installed HarmonyOS 3.0.0.163, which brings a number of new features for smart devices.
App Snippets:
Huawei App Snippets allows you to open key features of an app without opening that app. This is quite a useful feature that allows and you won’t find such capability in other smartphone operating systems such as Android and iOS.
You just have to swipe up on an app icon to open a floating window with key features. For example, if you swipe over the browser app icon, the floating window will show a search bar, bookmark bar, and scan button. There’s also a pin button on the top right corner of the window to make it a service widget.
A few days ago, Google rolled out Android 13 QPR1 Beta 3.1 for beta testers, and some users reported losing Vo5G on some Google Pixel 7 smartphones. Google is rolling out the Android 13 QPR1 Beta 3.1 patch (T1B3.221003.008) for Pixel 4a, 5, 5a, 6, 6 Pro, 6a, 7, and 7 Pro series devices.
Vo5G:
Vo5G is similar to the voice in today’s 4G networks. In 4G LTE, voice calls are implemented as end-to-end Voice over IP (VoIP) connections managed by an IMS core. Voice and video communication services in these networks ride on top of the IP data connection. When the call happens over LTE, it is called Voice over LTE (VoLTE), and when it is over Wi-Fi, it is known as Voice over Wi-Fi (VoWi-Fi).
Issue:
A Pixel 7 user on Reddit wrote: “Just noticed that it’s gone now, was there in beta 3.0 – anyone else?” Another user in the comment replied with a solution that the Android 13 QPR1 beta 3.1 Vo5G issue may require it to re-enable manually.
However, a user revealed that the option is gone and there’s no way to get it back. On the other hand, a user shared instructions to get this option back on phone (here’s the link)
