Its the difference in the region. Each region has its own devs customizing the EMUI as per their guidelines, carriers, environment.
I think you missed this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/themes/frd-l04-vs-frd-l09-t3456570
Regarding Nougat, Beta is going on. Once it gets stable you will get the update via OTA.
If you are Ok with some bugs in Beta then you can update it as mentioned in the link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/sympathic-to-upgrade-to-nougat-t3510275

I saw that thread but every person says something else about versions, one say that is double sim, another say that is single sim and stuff like that. But if i'm going to buy it from Italy,the 32gb it will be the L09 ?
If i'm doing that thing to update to Android Nougat will affect my warranty ? Thanks for answers ! xD

Yes, It also depends upon the SIM slots and internal memory. 32GB is L-09.
unless you ROOT, it won't affect your warranty.
My suggestion for you is to enjoy the EMUI 4 once you get the mobile. Then switch to EMUI 5 once you have good usability about the EMUI 4 and used to it.
So that you can feel the improvement in EMUI 5.
In GSM Arena, they say Honor 8 has a hybrid slot. You can use the second slot for either sim 2 or SD card.

Yes it has. But there is some software restriction in the Single Sim model in such a way that SIM in 2nd slot cannot be recognized.
And seems that only 3GB variants has single SIM model not the 4GB versions.

I think three sim slots is too much. Two sims plus an SD the best option for most people.

Yup. For Indian ppl who use JIO for temporary purpose till March 31, this will be useful.
3 SIM with SD card is more than expectation.But it won't get wasted.

Am pretty sure 3 Sims will be never implemented .
There were many technical issues behind this 3 sim throw .
Just like a 3rd slot require more power to run ,modem consume more battery .. Much radiation than before .. Sim and network conflicts which will effect calls on other sims !

I have a MT7-TL10 and during the call gets very hot. Begin to heat after the first minute. I have a single SIM in the phone. How close call begins to cool. We had two MT7-TL09 and we had no problems with heater. The phone has root.
Sorry for my English.

Dear guys,
I went through China Taobao and found one of small but useful adapter to make our Redmin Note 3 have more storage space and still keeps dual-SIM CARD.(i.e, SDCARD+SIM1+SIM2)
Please check image what I posted.
Or check this Chinese website and see those pictures how it works : http://mobileai.net/2016/09/29/2sim-micro-sd/

Vol r u mean say use 2sim and sd card at same time

Yes !
You don't need to take the risk to screw up your SIM card and get dual-SIM + SDCARD at the same time.
The only one disadvantage for this kind of method - Your SIM card would be out of your phone. That's not a big deal and you just need to buy a cover to cover it inside.
Kris
I was a bit confused, I thought you meant increase sound/audio volume.
I see now it is an adapter that allows you to insert a 2nd SIM card, and a microSD card at the same time.
so where to buy
its cost in Indian rupess
Will the phone work when the holder isn't fully closed?
can you give any link

Sorry for my bad description and worse English ...
That looks like an excellent option, if it means no cutting of the SIM card or damaging the SD card. Can anybody find one that can be shipped to UK? My friend who has a taobao account and lives in Hong Kong won't be able to get one for me until January.
This is great option to have dual sim + micro sd card at the same time.
Unfortunately, I have done the other method, which glue your sim card into sd card.
Anyway, its a great info.
Can any 1 plzzz give me the link from where to buy in India???
I have tried it, and it works very Good !
See image what I posted here.
This small SIM plastic adapter works very well. I found it has another useful function: To exchange SIM Card easily if your traveling frequency is pretty high.
You just need to take off cover and pull your SIM card off. Then insert local SIM card. Done !
Kris

Is this kind of hack possible on Honor 8 like other hybrid dual sim phone like redmi note or 7 Edge?
I did it and it worked, but be aware that you can destroy your phone.
There is several clips on YouTube that show how to remove the plastic from your simcard that you place upon the sdcard.
It is risky can jam the tray

All you do cut the sim off the simcard and stick it to the sd card
Seen on YouTube how to do it, but not asking that.
Asking to see a good result that works, so I know the quality of finish I need to get for it to fit.
Dont have the video link I did use.
But i didint cut it, did warm the simcard and pulled the plastic away..
Thats all I got.

Only one try, no trial, going to make it perfect.. Thanks for respond
Hi everyone!
I did it and it worked ( see screenshot). I have now 2 sim cards + 64 gb micro SD, so it's not software related (running stock Android M).
Be very careful. Maybe I just got lucky. Don't try it if you need your sim card, make a backup of the micro SD as well. You can practice on an old sim card and old micro SD before doing it on your own sim card.
Sorry for the double post but I want to add this picture of my finished setup :
I removed the sim chip by using a lighter to make the plastic soft ( not more than a few seconds to not burn the chip) then I had to cut the sim chip with scissors in order for it to fit on the sim tray ( See picture). I glued the chip under the micro SD card (I used super glue but it's not removable, so use something else) at the exact right position ( use another sim to see, and pay attention to the direction).
Sorry for my bad English, I'm French.

Sorry bud, but you failed to mention what Honor 8 model you owned. This might become a problem for some new Honor 8 owners since the only Honor 8 devices with full dual-sim active are the European and the Chinese versions. USA versions (FRD-L04 and FRD-L14) do not support full dual-sim active. Please be more specific in your OP. Thanks.

So my questioning is:
Is it possible to change the firmware from the FRD-L04 to the European firmware? I have the USA version and I would like to get the second SIM active.
Regards.
There's a thread on that (https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/dual-sim-manager-model-frd-l04-t3461671). Based on that, the FRD-L04 model is missing the IMEI for the second SIM slot (as to be expected, since there's no point for Honor to reserve and register an IMEI that is never used). So most likely not possible. (This is based on what I read, I have no way to try anything since I own the European dual-SIM version).
No point installing European firmware as it will not able a second Sim..
US Honor 8 do not support 2 sims..

Would like this too.. but how did they do it on Mate 8, was it default like this or a mod?
I just tried this on my Mate 9 Pro, the SIM2 is 3G and SIM1 is 4G, make phone call on SIM2, but then data on SIM1 is not possible.. I thought maybe SIM2 would need to be connected on 2G only for it to allow 3G/4G data on SIM1, but we cannot use 2G on our phones here (they turned off the network) so cannot test at all..

Mate 8 was originally stock DSFA (dual sim full active 2 party conversation at the same time )
Mate 9 is originally DSSB (Dual sim stand by only 1 party conversations every time)
It's impossible to make a phone full active if it was not originally stock or if there isn't exactly the same model (deferent version) that handle it...

Hello all,
I've got the wwe dual sim version. Using only 1 SIM slot, and using a MicroSD in SIM 2 slot.
Could I turn off the SIM2 functions / SIM1 indicators? I mean to desappear the little sim pictogram with number 1 in messages, call history, the signal indicator in status bar, and some other places in the UI...
Thanks
