Install newest official firmware - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hi all,
i am facing some problem with battery drain on my mobile. Previously i installed new firmware using firmware finder. So I decided to install clean, newest stable official firmware for Europe. So guys, could you please tell me, which version i can flash ? Maybe some download link will be good. I want to install new firmware using TWRP., because i want clean installation. Or do you have some better idea? please let me know. I am currently using B380 flashed from FF.
Thank you

Flash or update to B389 Europe that's the current OTA firmware unless thre newer in different regions..

If I have a stock phone right out of the box, can I straight away update the firmware using FF?

Nope...please don't try until we have rollback packages or the debranding tool.
Can some one of xda member, who have rooted thier L21C432 , provide me the oeminfo backup?
Use Huawei firmware finder and change model to l432 and install the b342 full version but you have to choose installation via system update . My phone was c185 and I'm running nougat now
Setting should be like this and install the full package it's important only full package not ota

Why not?!
That was mentioned in another thread, noone could flash firmware without PV at the end.
As you say, everyone knows. Him too. He just gives the information that there is a new firmware.
However...i was asking myself why they put the latest firmwares only without PV...and if they will ever come out. I'm really exciting about these new updates (my previous phone was abandoned after two months...if xda didn't exists....)
Can't install! Twrp gives me error if i try to flash the 3 files. I'm stuck on b381

B350-351 updates

What's in this update guys anyone has informations?
I just seen it. Dont know but if you try to download one update then system updater want you to download second (fixes), now I downloaded more than 12! I think it must finish at 2.3gb as standard full firmware.
Hello
Why these numbers 350-1? Very strange

Update available 9.0.0.162(E) but not on Firmware Finder

Hi guys, my phone just showed me that an update 9.0.0.162(E) is available.
What is ths? Especially the (E). Never saw that before.
But i can't find the firmware on Firmware Finder.
Is there any information if and when the update will arrive?
Is it just a security patch? The update app says its's 3,69GB.
I'm currently on 9.0.0.159(patch01).
My Model is a german C432.
Me too

If you have not yet installed it it's better to share it firmware finder.
There is an option to share in firmware finder.
I thought it's present in firmware finder and installed it without sharing.

I am also not sure whether it's working anymore. Let's hope it works.
Btw why you got full ROM as ota instead of incremental ota have you modified your device?
It works, its for the device, nothing to worry about.
Just updated totay to .162, no issues. Maybe Firmware Finder (Android App) will get it in some days or try search for yourself with the Desktop Firmware Finder.
I got this.

Thats might be because you have modified system and updater detected it and its downloading full package instead of OTA.

Ya I too tried earlier, its buggy on all Honor devices but works fine on mate 20.
My device is rooted but I still have stock erecovery
Can I just apply the update without any damage? I just have to root it again, right?
I wanted to apply the tutorial of ThreeMMM to update. The problem ist that I dont have the FullOTA to extract the update.app.
How should I do that?

Yes no damage
Yes you have to root again.
Can you reflash the stock recovery and then check for the new update again? I think that way maybe instead of full ota update maybe you have to install partial files
