I have a UK Honor 6x and there seems to be no EMUI 5 update. Has it not been released? Why?
Could you tell phone's serial number? Anyway you can check by Huawei official site, in downloads section if it is already came out or not

What do you mean? I own the phone, it's BLN-L21
There's no way to check, they don't even list the 6x on the emui website.
You have BLN-L21C???
You can use Firmware Finder to download official update package and flash yourself.

Have you inserted a sim card in the phone?

Mine is BLN-L21 too, i found the .tar files for both EMUI 4/5 directly checking on their site. It was something like 1 month and half ago... anyway if you'd like to avoid searching, just click here - http://download-c1.huawei.com/downl...oadId=96012&version=398080&siteCode=worldwide - it's the direct link to download EMUI 5 .tar update file for BLN-L21. In my previous post i was meaning that without your phone serial, which contains your model variant, i wouldn't be able to provide ya the link for your correct version.

Ok, no problem.
You can update both with dload method and with Firmware Finder.
None of them requires rooting or an unlocked bootloader, but I suggest you to go with Firmware Finder as it's easier and more safe.
Download the app from play store.
Open it and go into settings; enable "Use proxy for install".
It will ask you to download an app, confirm. Download will start. Install the app, go in WiFi settings and enable proxy on your current network.
Set "localhost" as IP and "8080" as port.
Then get back on Firmware Finder.
Press the button on the main page, available updates will be shown.
Select the latest available one (be careful, the type has to be FullOTA-MF-PV, other versions are not flashable) and touch "Check firmware access" (with IMEI).
If the update is the latest available FullOTA-MF-PV one, and the firmware check tells you that your device is not approved for installation, tell us and we'll find another way. Else, touch "Get an update through proxy".
Open your updater in settings, you'll find the update.
Start the download and remove the proxy from your WiFi settings.
Hi all. Today I purchased an Honor 6x. I am in the UK. The phone has been on all day and I have been tapping the update button like crazy. It seems that I am stuck on EMUI 4.1.3 and Android Marshmallow. Should there be a Nougat update in the UK for this phone? Thanks in advance

Ah thanks both. I've just had a look at that site and firmware finder. As there doesn't seem to be an OTA update heading my way I might give firmware finder a bash. Many thanks.

No, it doesn't work at 100%, often users detect problems of various types after using FF here on XDA, this because it can download even packages that not always match your phone variant...

Updates should be already came out if I'm not wrong, try to force the update by clicking on system uodaye -> 3 dots on the upper right corner -> down latest update. If nothing is found, try to write to Huawei and ask about the most recent update for your build
I have sent Huawei an email requesting information with regards to an update. Obviously I'll get no reply being the weekend so I have been sat here looking at firmware finder. So close to using it. From what I understand it won't void the warranty of the phone if I update using firmware finder. What if the update doesn't work can I revert back to the original version. What if the update bricks the phone? Is that easy to fix?
TIA

The rollback packages are available only for a limited amount of models at the moment (and i think forever, if Huawei wouldn't upload other packages as they've decided to do) so it could be a pain without a proper TWRP backup. For unbricking, there are some methods for doing that and it could be easy like it couldn't be, it just depends by the problem that could occur.
Ah thanks RedSkull. I might try and kerb my eagerness and see if I get a response from Huawei. This week's a bit busy so probably not the time to try anything risky.

Go Download Firmware Finder In Play Store And Find Your Model. Do NOT Download Firmware That Are Not Approved Yet Whrn Selecting A Firmware. You Could Update If You Stock Recovery With The DNS Thing When Selecting A Firmware. Do Not Update Your Device With The One That Are Like Less Than 1GB, You Should Update With One That Says Around 2-3 GB

Hi!
So i found a rebrand script for AL00 to L-29 on 4pda.ru through the https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...-mate-20-x-global00ized-2-0-emui-9-1-t3920956 thread, by joining thier telegram group. For it to work an unlocked bl is required ofc, wich i have.
I haven't tested it, maybe someone with more knowledge could take a look at it? Here's the link http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=932930&st=920#entry89756746

After rebrand from AL00 to L29, can I rebrand from L29 back to AL00? Unlock bootloader code still working? Thanks
Somebody tried?
Is it possible to change launcher then?
What about further updated, who knows.
Ok, let ask this and hopefully those who tried it already can provide an answer.
*The script is for changing your OEM info correct? Rebranding means being able to use L29 firmware as well. Can you explain how or what method did you use to flash L29 firmware?
*The instructions does not say it but do we need an L29 update.zip firmware ready?
*After FULLY rebranding your AL00 TO L29, can you now use 3rd party Launcher?

On telegram group, guy who done this few times said that you can change launcher and that it works only on 123, not 135...

Hi people!
Think i'm gonna try this today, but if someone has tested this. When rebranded have you also tested the option to Flash the L-29/global firmware and does it work? Is there a specific firmware you must flash first, or can i Flash the latest L-29 firmware directly?

Hi!
Iv'e been at this script several Times today.
Nothing works all the options does same thing, flashes recovery_ramdisk reboots, then tells me to hold power button+volume up. All that does is takeing me to eRecovery, then if I reboot the phone to fastboot, it says Flash firmware+cust in upgrade mode. Hit any key, i do that and the Windows closes nothing more. So how did you manage to rebrand? And when rebranded do you use L-29 firmware and get the system updates for the global version?

Hi!
I checked and nothing seems to change, ofc i cant check directly efter the script has run, becuase then it wants me to boot into erecovery. But if i turn it off, and start it in fastboot, it says same info again.
In erecovery it says downloaded latest recovery+firmware, but i'm afriad it will download latest AL00 firmware instead. Then i Will not be able to install transformation rom becuase of erofs is present in newer fw.

In theory, if you successfully changed OEMINFO AL00 to L29, then through erecovery downloaded latest recovery+firmware will restore the default FW of L29 (The oeminfo of L29 has been flashed to your device).
Hi.. has anyone managed this successfully? I desperately want to do this though am worried to brick my only device (That I currently can't afford to replace)
My device is currently AL00 9.1.0.135 is this the correct version for this script?
Could anyone do a detailed guide. For us worried people... Happy to contribute beer money, after successful rebrand if required.
Also I noticed looking at the script it installs Magisk to do whatever it does.... Will this trigger anything (like Samsung has Knox) as I don't want to be stuck with not being able to use gpay and banking etc.....?
Would I be able to remove Magisk after and go back to "stock"?
Sorry for all the questions just trying to work it all out before I take the plunge.

Hi all, I have downgraded my p40 pro to 131 to get google apps working. Then tried auto updates and it tells me that there is an update but same version 131, updated to 131 using auto update but it still keeps telling me that I'm on 131 and same version of update available. Connected to PC and use Hisuite and same story, tells me 131 update available (which I already have) and nothing else. Was able to update to 154 using proxy but now same story, it keeps telling me that 154 update available which I did auto update but I still get notification that I there is new update to 154. I cleared data and cache both for Huawei Core and Update app but still same story.
Please help!?!
You will need to use Hisuit Proxi & firmware finder to get more upto date firmware.

Select Full, and use the check availability option to make sure its an approved for install as well, else it will fail.

When I did mine, No. But remove or backup any personal stuff off your memory card if you have one, just in case. Note if you've done the GMS install, make sure you log into All you're accounts, ie YouTube etc first before upgrading firmware. Cause you won't be able to add later.

Hmmm we are all on C636. No idea what went wrong. Only difference is 4RP1 and 5RP1. Any difference in those?
Same situation here, I downgrade to version 131 o install GSM and now the phone won't update.
I had to update it using HiSuite and now I'm on 183 version.
Hope there is a way to fix the OTA updates on the phone.
getting regular updates after installing GMS via googlefier
Doing some research I have found what is happening:
On your P40 Pro, in the "About phone" screen you can see the build number and then a number between ( ), example: Build number 10.1.0.131 (C636E8R5P1)
The number after the C will tell you the version or region of your firmware, in the example C636 = version/region 636
When you downgrade using a different version/region you will loose the OTA updates on the phone, and this will only be restored after you install your correct version/region firmware.
You will need to find the correct version of your firmware and have the "dload" version, and install it from external card. There is a video showing how to do this, but the link on the video is for a version/region 636, if you have a different version/region it won't fix anything.
Once you have the correct firmware and install it, you will begin receiving OTA again. This process, at least on my phone, erased everything, so be aware of this.
