Have you tried the firmware finder ?
U will find it in the play store.
There are you tube vids on how to use it.
There are also guides on here for it.
There is also the Charles method.
You should have a good look and read though the threads
Maybe you can try to connect it to computer and use HiSuite to check for the update.
Or you "check update" by using your data plan. (The reason I stated this is due to if I check for the update via my office WiFi, I couldn't receive it due to our IT department is blocked update website)

What country are you in ?
Have you contacted Honor via HiCare ?
Google+
It's worth trying to speak to them.
Find out what's happening coz i should have had your update by now
I'm also from Malaysia and I didn't get the notification for the update. I had to check for updates using the hicare app.

Hey guys.
I'm in the beta program. Looks like i cannot see the new firmware on HiCare and also in system update. Some tester found a way to upgrade through official channel or we have to wait for some reasons ?

If you cant find in HiCare on "OS update early" than rollback to B131 and check again. I made it now just to test this way because i was already on B360 using Charles and i found the update.
A rollback ? Sound like to much of an hassle to me. I just want to update the phone normally.
i'll wait a bit.
For me it work via Settings / System Update.
System Update found 360 - while Hicare could not.
I was on 320 (beta)

It's nothing that hard, you just need to force update two dload folders and thats all. After you can do the update normally.
Guys, let's try to concentrate all the questions and info in one thread!
Honor 8 Android 7.0 + EMUI 5 oficial released!
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.

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

You won't get the update unless,your manufacturer or your mobile carrier offer the update. Not all devices get updates, some never get updates at all. Just because there is a new android version available does not mean your device will get it. That is not how it works.
Check with your device manufacturer or your mobile carrier to see when/if your device will get the update.

Hi,
With the latest update, I got the faceunlock funktionality. If I try to the register my face, I always get the error message, that face recognition is not possible. Any Ideas?
I heve similar issue. My Honor came wiht 80.0.120 software. There is no face unlock full option. Only locscreen messages. OTA can't see any other (130) update. I have bought this phone in Germay and I am using it in Poland. Any ideas?
Hello, I just got this phone yesterday. It came with 120 (C432) software version and the November security patch. To be able to Face unlock the device, we have to have build version 130 with January security patch. I'm still waiting for the update to hit my Honor View 10.
Is there any way to update it to 8.0.0.130 manually? Honor Poland claims that I can't get official OTA update becouse my region is not supproted.
I have recieved information from Germn Honor Customer Service that my phone will be updated not later than 19th March 2018. Maybe yours also will be affected in the same time.

Where did you get your phone from? Is it unlocked?
I got mine from Amazon.de last week and it was on 80.0.120 but updated itself to 8.0.0.130 (C432) immediately after first boot.
I have bought it in Poland. But it is from german distribution. I do not know if it is unlocked? I don't think so. It is strange. I thought that it will update after first boot. But nothing happened.
I received several updates over HiCare, but didn't get the 130 update. Did anyone tried to update via HiSuite?

No. All stock.
No problem with 130 OTA and face unlock. I'm in Switzerland, bootloader unlocked, not (yet) rooted.
Edit:
Now it's rooted, still ok. Even with this settings :
Works well. It depends on how you have configured, as per attached
As German huawei service claims today is the day. Have any of you received 130 update in Germany?

Not yet, but I think that the last day is 22. March, so there are 3 days to go.
This is a new message from honor service:
thank you very much for your reply on this case.
It usually takes up to 8 weeks after this release date to complete the roll out within 4 waves of updates being sent out.
For the current time being, I can only kindly ask for your patience, you will definitely receive the update until the 12th May via OTA (Over-the-Air) as download notification on your phone.

Basically they keep pushing the ETA to further date.... nice. [emoji16]Just like Honor USA open source masquerade (aka advertising).
I contacted the German support yesterday once again regarding the update and they manually requested it for me. Basically I have to wait for 2 more months for the update, and I'm still on 120 version. I'm very disappointed with the Honor right now.
On April 27th, it was released the latest security patch in Spain. This firmware can be found in Sammobile.
This update (A750FNXXU1BSD6) is not the same as in Russia (A750FNPUU1BSD2). The changelog only says that it brings security improvements, and I haven't found anything new.
IS THE LAG IN APP drawer and camera mode swiping fixed?

That's very complicated. You should try to install SmartSwitch app from Samsung. I havent had recieved any OTA too. But when I connect to the SmartSwitch you can easily update your phone if any update available. I got the second pie update today in SmartSwitch. If you use SmartSwitch and no update will be there, then you can go into the manual update. Im from Slovakia too BTW
It was updated last night, and the pie is terrible. Changing my device. Farewell friends ?

I mean this app https://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/app/smart-switch you need to download to PC and also to mobilephone. When you connect the phone with PC , then launch the app in PC. This will automatically check for new updates. You can also do the update

Please go to Settings--> About the phone (down)--> Info about software, then do the printscreen and upload the picture here.
Or give me the software version carrier (it´s something like SAOMC_SM-A750FN_???_???_...etc)
I will try to help you to find if any update is available for you.
Pie
I've attached the screenshot here. Thanks for the help.

It seems that there is no PIE for you. You probably have XME Malaysia version of firmware.
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/SM-A750GN/XME/ please see here your firmwares. If the update available, it will be here in the list.

I noticed only improvments in camera. Exactly: before this update, scene optimizer didn´t work in my case. After this latest update, Scene optimizer works okay.
