Anybody got any update above b190 for L29C567? US version that is. The Intl C432 version got 2 or 3 updates after our May update.
Should we consider rebranding?

There's a beta, B230, out for the US version. That's the latest release, albeit not an officially pushed one.
Probably new version will come soon, I'd think.

Where did you come across it? It is not showing up in FF.
I'm on b190 here as well. I seen the beta listed on the FunkyHuawei site. But I don't want to mess with anything right now lol.
Hoping we'll see Oreo released just after the Mate 10

Me either...I do appreciate those that run the betas, but 190 is VERY stable for me. I've gotten old enough, cranky
enough, and stubborn enough to just run official release versions. At the end of the day when I get home from
work, I don't even pick my phone up, unless someone actually calls me, and even with that, it better be a family
member or I won't touch it. I get enough calls, text, emails on the thing during the day.:cyclops:
Same here...was tempted to rebrand and try some of the custom ROMs but this phone is working so well for me. I also doubt the 230 version has any features that makes it worth it to update. I will wait for Oreo before I mess with it again.

I know this is way ahead of time, but I'm wondering if any of the Devs and/or ROM cooks on here have plans to tinker with 7.0 if/when available for the X2.

That may not be for awhile and only if Huawei decided to update the X2 to Nougat. I'm sure they will probably give us two years of updates so I'm hoping we should receive it but it may not be for a few months. If it makes you feel any better, Nougat runs like crap for some reason on my Nexus 6P.

Hi , i have a honor 8 and the update should have arrived yet through hicare but it doesnt. I ddont know why but it doesnt , so i tried to upgrade it with firmware finder , who downloaded the latest version of nougat , and when i was installing it it says the firmware was incompatible . My version is frd l09 b131 and i looked to upgrade with charles app but im a noob and i couldnt . Am i doing something wrong ? Sorry for my english
Not everyone gets the update at this time. I'm very disappointed in Huawei. A few days rollout I can understand. Over a week? No.
I agree , i had 2 iphones and when An update rolls out the server became so busy that we cant download anything , but in one day our two we can download . Huawei isnt doing it right , i hope it apeers soon in my phone...
Nougat update
A lot of companies haven't released nougat especially in the US. Motorola promised G4 at end of 2016. Only country who received it was India.. As long as we get in February, I'm fine with that. Let others sort out the bugs.. Lol

Yes and I'm still waiting too. It's very disappointing.
U will get it though guys.
Try not to get caught up in the big I must have the update thing.
There are some changes that you can see from MM -N but most of it is under the skin.
U will get your updates.
Don't take risks with your phone unless you really know what your doing.
It would be such a shame to root your phone etc just to get an update and f-ck up your phones.

Honor 8 Nougat roll out was officially stated as being from 3 week in February. Just because some location have it already just means they're lucky..

Me neither , since it began rolling out i thougt it would las one week tops to upgrade every phone but well.. bad for huawei , one thing they have to improve.
They also promissed us 2 major updates , lets see if we recive android 8 when it arrives ( too soon to know)
Hi
I want to update my Mate 8 to Nougat/Emui 5.0. I have read threads and notice different build numbers but none which are the same as mine. Can anyone recommend how to update without issue? I have tried HiSuite but continues to tell me I am on the current build. I am new to upgrading manually; I appreciate anyone's help. Thanks. Current build NXT-L29C185B190 in USA.

Same boat, but, if from what I understand is correct, that the L29C185B is a middle east/African version, the only way around it would be to order a
prepay sim card from that region, then try it on wi-fi, or blow everything out and update it with a different build.
I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think the Mate 8 was "officially" released in the USA, but, some of the other versions will work in the USA if the device
is not sim locked, which mine and apparently yours is.
I'm looking into a simple 1,2,3 step procedure, but haven't found one. It's been over 5 years since I was active in flashing.
My old Note1 was pretty stable, then my Mate2 was so stable, I didn't bother updating it, and it's been the same with the Mate8.
Can I live without 7, yes, but I'd like to have the option at some point.

Thanks for the info. I can live without 7.0... but I hate emui 4.0... I want 5.0. Anyone know if the other region update with corresponding SIM will work in the US without issue? Africa/Middle East?

FYI, I reached out to the USA version of Huawei, and they said since the version I have is not a USA version, they couldn't provide support, but,
they did give me a link to send a question to the international version of Huawei. I sent them an email, but since it was before sunrise in
China, they probably haven't read it yet.
Here's the link if you want to email them also: http://consumer.huawei.com/en/contact-us/index.htm?tag=hotline

Thanks. I sent an email, as well. Did they even make a US version/model of the Mate 8? I have the Mate 9, as well, bought from Amazon. I have yet to see updates for it, either. Supposed to have the update to add Alexa to it. Odd.
You can debrand to C636 or C432 and use everything as you use on C185, if nougat is so important for you, then.

Not so much "important" as it is, but it would be "nice" to have it for future apps, security etc.
I ran 4.3JB for a LONG time on my Mate2, until they came out with 5.1LL
Wait, they will roll out better firmware to all
OTA update in USA?
My Mate 8 is model L29C185B162, so it's also the Africa/Middle East version, and I'm in the USA.
I'd rather not deal with a manual update. Is it possible to get an over-the-air update to EMUI 5/Nougat for this phone? Do I need to insert an Israeli or South African SIM card to get this to work? If so, any tips on the best way to get one?
I would appreciate any advice. Thanks!
Any word for oreo beta testing? Or when we will get it.. Just received oreo in open beta on my one plus 3

You realize Samsung's Android is completely different from AOSP Android, right? By the time Oreo ships to the S8 there will probably still only be like 10 apps that are officially updated for it (as in, they use features only available in Oreo). You really aren't missing much because Samsung already put much more inside Android. Because, you know, you paid top $$$

Yes sir I definitely know the difference ( NO DISRESPECT) that's why I purchased the s8+ ...I'm just overly anxious for the beta update more than others I guess.

Certainly NOT *****ing!!! I'm still scratching my head wondering WTF ppl are b!+C#!nG about my comments. Anyways I apologize for hijacking your post bro...thanks for the criticism ...
I remember a yr ago while on the s7e i was on this same boat waiting for Nougat. Took til atleast late Jan early feb to get N finally. Not to mention i missed the beta window. Filled up within minutes of release.
To say the least N is excellent and wont be anticipating like a junky waiting on oreo as such. I'll wait for the final release next yr. Love N. Hopefully they don't take NOTHING away from N. Just saying...
Who wants to guess when official Android 10 will drop? I'm going to say it will be sometime early next week!
you mean Android Q
I don't care, I will not change the naming scheme even if it's official.
I can't believe they stopped the dessert naming scheme
Absolutely disappointed
I'm going to say first week of Oct
Whenever the 7T is released
7T will be shipped with Android 10. For OP7 pro, who knows. I'd expect fast update.

That's not that far from beta4 to stable. I'm pretty sure Oneplus is working on stable 10 now.
Rumours say Sept. 3rd:
https://www.neowin.net/news/android-10-is-reportedly-launching-on-september-3
https://www.phonearena.com/news/Android-10-release-date-confirmed-official-Pixel_id118451
I'm guessing Open Beta will be around the end of this week.
OP will preserve the update for the new flagship (T) I guess. Normaly within a view days after release they stable updates will be availeble for the previous devices from the same release year.
This could be soon after 27 sept (presentation OP7T and OP7T Pro en OP TV.)
For now latest Developer Preview is out DP4. From this version on you can update via OTA to bèta builds. So you can try it but dont expext everything is working fine. Its still a preview. If you only want stable builds I presume you need to wait to the beginning of october.

He "doesn't like the new naming scheme". Let him stay in his bubble, it's fine. When the time comes and we're all referring to new builds by numbers (as Google is intending), he'll be stuck on letters still and we'll just sit back with our popcorn and laugh. I completely understand Google's reasoning behind it and even after being disappointed at first, the change makes sense. They said that not all desserts were recognized globally and not all regions have certain letters or know what order they come in. I just read an article the day that I found out about the news, if I can find it, I'll link it.
Edit: this isn't the exact article I was referring to, but close enough. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.th...ficially-announced-new-logo-wordmark-desserts

I really do not care what they call it.
I do know last year One Plus release Android "9" really fast.
We had it long before the Samsung losers.
You want the fastest updates Pixel but at least last year One Plus was pretty fast.

It is rumoured that Oneplus is going to release Android 10 for OP7 Pro in October or November 2019. I think that's possible. We can be sure one thing - that will be faster than Lineage.
