No new firmwares - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hi
Till 389 Honor was releasing new firmware almost every week or two.
Now after 389 Firmware Finder can't find anything newer.
Do You think this means end of the line, or they work on something big ?

Should we wait for EMUI5.1? I heard the CEO of Huawei confirmed EMUI 6. Maybe the beta testing will start right after the release of Mate 10 ??

I guess you're asking if the Mate 7 will eventually get Android Nouggat. I would say highly unlikely, i wish we will get it but we'll have to see. P9 already got a beta of it with EMUI 5 so let's hope it happens!

Which EMUI version are we looking at on the Honor 8?

I didn't know if it had been mention yet, but does anyone know which EMUI version we will be looking at on the Honor 8? Also while we are talking any news about it getting Nogurt?
EMUI 4.1 I believe
It is EMUI 4.1 , runs fluidly and there's no confirmation of nouget as far as I know
emui 4.1 skin on top of android 6.0.1.
bt we can soon expect emui 5 based on android 7 as its alderdy been tested on huawei p9
EMUI 4.1, I hope in EMUI 5 will be more stock Android.

Apparently Honor has promised at least 24 months of software updates for the Honor 8 so it will definitely be on its way eventually, hopefully with more Android and less Huawei bloat.

My hint is they will release a small update for 6.0.1 first (camera and RAM management?) and probably after November the NG7.0 or 7.1 as Google Pixel is about to be released with that version.

My guess is the first quarter of 2017 for the H8, hopefully sooner but i doubt it. It could be worse though: the OnePLus X got Marshmellow today

Yeah.. Honor 8 will get the update soon. EmUI 4.0.1 might be released around November. And EMUI 5 will be released around Feb or march of 2017.

If it is already running on EMUI 4.1, then it is less likely to get another update.
It will get EMUI 5 by Feb.

New firmware B387 for FRD-L09

In Firmware Finder is new ROM with build number 387.
Unfortunately, no flashable
Most likely it updates only the security patch to the one from May
Hello
Perhaps tomorrow we will have new updates?

Lately I look every day if it is something new out or not
And looky look.. one day I dont look at FF and you report something new..
Thanks for that one...
I have read online that we shoud get till end of May the 7.1.1
But we will see...
Any idea what these updates are for? It's not like they work anyway, so why put them on company servers etc?

I think that we will get some update soon .. first of all it was months ago announced that
we should get till end of May the noughat 7.1.x update..
Then again the chineese version of honor got an update ( B387 ) where the camera is updated
( to use the monochrome camera and some new modes )
and they got also a battery optimisation fix ..
So I think this all is just some things happening before we get some updates...
So it is good that something about our updates is happening...

Hi. I don't think so. My international unlocked FRD- L09 never received official OTA. Manually flashed all versions till now- B360, B380, B381... Waiting for OTA is a time waste. Huawei's own software update distribution are total nonsense.
I also doubt we will receive 7.1 soon...

Emui 5.1 does not mean Android 7.1.
Huawei P10 is running Emui 5.1 on Android 7.0.
If we get it, I'm sure it will be the same thing for us and also not in May.
I have FRD-L14, and got the B385 update OTA yesterday

Thanks for the info
Something is definatly happening
Couse one contact person from Huawei reported to xda user svetius regarding source code and the partnership that we should expect something happen end May or early June
And since yesterday in FF there is also new firmware B387
And some of users got yesterday updated
So I would say something is going on
Lets wait few more weeks and see if Huawei is doing what promised
Yeah in FF new FW is shown, but half of users still haven't received update to Android 7.
I don't expect any "revolution" in updating our devices.

android oreo

will mate 8 receive android O update or not ?
Apparently not. It's a shame.

difficult to say. so far there has been no official statement on that (that ive seen). the mate 9 is still in beta phase for oreo, so i would expect that once it gets final release, only then would huawei turn its attention towards the mate 8. so no matter what, we will have to wait until beginning 2018 at least id say...
