It's rolled it out in batches to make sure their servers aren't bombarded with tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of people trying to update it at once.
And your friend may not have the international version: some other carriers push it out quicker
If you want to do it officially, it's just a matter of patience. I know the feeling of frustration, checking for system updates twice a day, but it'll arrive eventually

i got it dude:good: thank you soo such i will wait for the updates
same issue....
Friends,
I am facing the same issue...I have purchased the tab 2 weeks ago and didn't realize till one of my friend bought one, since he was new to this, brought it to me to set it up, while setting it up for the first time, an OTA update notification came, said OK and found the tab got upgraded to 4.0.4, I have tried checking for an OTA update, a message appeared "no update available", tried with Kies, as soon as the tab is connected it showed an update available, when applied it gets disconnected and re-connect with same option as update available....for almost a week it is same..no OTA and not getting updated...
I guess we have to wait for a little more time...
Update on 30th July...Kies updated my device to 4.0.4
Just tried once again like every day with OTA, as usual no update available...tried with Kies with no expectations but surprisingly...the tab started getting the update installed...it took couple of hours but done and no issues found...
My S6 is now on 5.0.2.The same version it was when I got the device. Whenever I try to search for an update, it says "latest version already installed".
I tried connecting to smart switch on PC..still the same..my buddy who also owns an s6 here, has already received the 5.1.1 update.
Any help n suggestions will be good.
Thanks.

Welcome to Samsung Galaxy Smart Customer Support
Chris Nutt 17:49:35
Hi maneesha hope you can help
Maneesha 17:49:57
Hello Chris, how are you today?
Thank you for provided me with the information on your query.
Chris Nutt 17:50:25
As you can see its regarding firmware update
I'm good thanks hope your the same
Maneesha 17:51:34
Can I just clarify that your query if about updating the software on your phone?
Chris Nutt 17:53:01
Yes it is maneesha I sent back 2 faulty s6 that were on 5.1 this third is on 5.0,2 and saying up to date I know that's not the case
I'm on three network 5.1.1 was released for it well over a month ago
I've also tried smartswitch
Maneesha 17:55:26
That's correct, we have another update which has been released, 5.1.1 has only been released in the last few weeks. As updates are released in batches and does depend on the serial number and the region you live in.
Chris Nutt 17:56:37
So I will eventually get it I was just worried because other two s6 updated
Maneesha 17:57:21
Yes Chris, the update will still come to your phone, it's nothing to do with a fault. If we released the update to every Samsung user the servers would eventually crash. The update being released in batches does allow a smoother operating.
Chris Nutt 17:57:57
Was worried that somehow I'm missing update especially as I see Samsung are going to be doing security update stage fright etc
Any idea at all of time frame please maneesha?
Maneesha 18:00:17
The stage fright information being reported is still being investigated at this moment Chris to ensure there is no threat to our phones, as the update is released by Google.
Chris Nutt 18:01:01
OK that's good to know I hope to see an update soon cheers for your help
Hopefully really soon lol
Maneesha 18:01:36
My pleasure, is there anything else I can help you with today?
Chris Nutt 18:01:55
No thanks have a good one

If you give us more information we can tell you what the update was. can you go to Settings>about phone and see there and give me the Build number and baseband version.
Samsung usually says nothing detail informations about their updates. So just try it.
The builtnumber of the update would be helpfull.
Then it depends how big the update is. I assume its the latest COJx update around 140 mb?
Security und Performance updates is probably the most what we can say.
Hey guys,
If anyone's interested, my P9 just received the OTA for L09C636B361. This is on an unlocked/unbranded Australian handset. Obviously, I've immediately started the download...
Time to start mashing that "Check for Updates" button if you're in Australia I guess
Excited! Time to spam the update button

Nothing yet
Might want to check tru HiCare , and go through the early adopters button ...
Still nothing, sure I'll get something eventually..
i have the l09c34b140 and i live in australia (got it from virgin mobile australia on plan). is there anyway for me to convert to yours?
I am on EVA-L09C34B140 as well, heres hoping that we will get some Nougat goodness soon. I got Android 7 running no my old S4 and cant wait till the P9 officially gets an update.
I'm on the same EVA-L09C34B140 and also nothing yet. I bought my P9 outright, but it came with an annoying Optus boot and shutdown screen that I was hoping be rid of with an update, although I'm not too sure that'll be the case.

L09C34 is the Optus version, I got mine outright as well. I dont understand why Huawei will make an Australian model for Optus, a different model for Vodaphone and a unbranded model. They should of just made one model for all of Australia and a tool for carriers to put in their own boot animations.
Chances are, we will not get an update till Optus push through an update for this model. The model the OP has (L09C636), probably has his update pushed through by Huawei directly.
Ah, figures - a familiar story. I had the same issue with my old SG Note 2 which would have been waiting ages for an AU update via Telstra, but rooting it with a Nordic ROM saved me 18 months of waiting. I guess I have to suffer the Optus boot screen post-update though.

dyu reckon we should debrand and just install the unbranded model (if possible) or do we just idle :/
damn it just flashed to B320

If I could practice on someone else's Optus-tainted P9 first I'd then give it a go on mine
The process appears rather more convoluted than my previous Android ROM flashing experience. I think I might wait a bit longer.
i'm on exactly the same firmware( C636B190, which is updated from B168 through OTA) as the OP had before receiving B361..
However I had received nothing.
I bought mine outright at JB HiFi and got the OTA on Thursday night - posted to Whirlpool as well. I received notification when I checked the update entry in settings. Not an early adopter nor rooted or downloaded via the HiCare app.
As for the different firmwares blame that on the carrier not Huawei - Optus, Telstra et al are always slow - best check their websites or ask their Twitter/FB accounts for the timeframe.
Loving the updated EMUI 5.0. :laugh:
Unbranded Australian C636 here and still on B190, check for updates button nearly getting worn out!!
Got the Nougat update last night. Notification details are very hard to read. Almost white on white text. Anyone else got this, or knows how to fix it?
See screenshot attached.

@Tecalote is working on the Nougat version of the NewWorld rom. Chances are, he will probably release this before Optus roll out the EMUI 5.0 update. If you really want EMUI 5.0, you can always flash L09C636B361 via the Huawei tools, then it will be a debranded AU version.

Hi there,
I just received my Honor 8 from Gearbest with the stock firmware FRD-L09C636B130.
The issue is that doesnt matter which region i choose the OTA updater doesnt find anything. Its frustrating since everyone else is already running Nougat.
Does anyone know how to force the update?
PS: I currently live in New Caledonia, which is a French territory on the Pacific.
Thanks!!
Be sure to update the HiCare app to the latest version. Then you will receive the Nougat update in 1-2 days. I received mine the day after purchasing the phone and upgrading HiCare

hi. i just had same situation and solved it with "HW firmware finder" . i cant assure you anything but you should try . so far Nougat and emui 5 is great.
64gb , bought from gearbest, so i thInk we were In the same situation.
firmware : B130 → B360. dont forget to backup your data.
you can install an app called hw firmware finder on google play store. you dont need bootloader unlock or anythIng like that. basically app helps you to OTA update manually. there is an thread about how to use this app. so you can fInd it easily
