Any changelog?!

Well, an update comes every 3/4 months. Surely we'll receive something by the end of the year or in January

The best thing that it would be Oreo, coming as a surprise without a beta test.

I don'o Think so, anyway i don't cara too much about Oreo anymore, it would just be a New interface with some minor stuff perfectly integrable with minor updates.

Well, if it gets treble support, that will be huge. That's why I'm hoping for Oreo

No treble support for honor 8. Look for Android Police post about devices getting project treble.
Pure Honor 8

We can't determine Treble support until the Oreo update is released (if Honor did)

Sadly your right :/ there has been a lot of updates in FF but none of which we can install.

Yah bro here is the changelog. Sadly nothing special.

We might get treble support, tbh we might not. Alot of phones that have been updated to Oreo haven't came with support for it. Just phones that have came out with Oreo as there first OS. That's what I have been seeing anyways :/

Don't worry, since every Honor phone has a separate Vendor partition, all devices getting Oreo automatically will have Treble support

That's wonderful to hear! Hell yah ?

BTW they just dropped a new update in FF again. Same Version number different build ID. (Or however FF ID's them ?)

Android 7.1

Hello,
Does anybody know if Honor 8 will get android 7.1 or 7.0 was the last major update for this device?
Could not find an answer myself, sorry if it was already answered.
7.0 is almost done. However, we won't be getting 7.1.

Thank you for answer.
I was hoping for 7.1 update
It's probably unlikely that custom ROM's will ever get camera and other hardware to work as good as on original firmware...

That means 2 Major upgrades (7.0) and (8.0) with minor fixes and improvements but not 7.1 or 8.1 if it's released.
If this device will not get any other updates like 7.1.x or 8.x i swear i will never get another Huawei device...

The company has official said that " The Honor 9 will receive the upcoming Android O update soon after its official release also the Honor 8 Pro should receive the Android O update before the end of this year"
Then what about Honor 8 ,Will this one Get the Android "o" directly or First 7.1 then 8.0 ?

Update button gone in settings? [Phone Gone Now]

I returned to stock BLN-L24C567B360 via dload method, and now the update/upgrade button is missing from settings above About where it used to be. How do I get this button back so I can do OTA updates? I'm giving this phone to my father in law and he wants to do simple updates and is clueless about flashing. Is there an update apk I can grab from somewhere?

Yes, I restored to stock via dload for build 360. I tried dload for build 365 and 366 and both times it failed at 5%. Also I've factory reset via stock recovery several times now.
can you check if your build number is something like nrd testkeys

Nope, it was regular 360.
Wife made me box it up and ship to her dad, so I no longer have the phone.
I have another one, but I'm just going to sell it and be done with it. No idea what other phone I can get with the same specs for the same price that's not so difficult to flash, but I'll keep looking I guess.
Wait till honor 7x comes out. Or Lenovo zuk z2 has better specs.

7X is already out, $200 on sale at Amazon right now. But it has almost identical specs to the 6X. I expect a year newer phone to be an upgrade, not a lateral move. Zuk2 came out June 2016 and doens't have LTE bands for US carriers. It had very little worldwide coverage with only a few obscure LTE bands. Great specs otherwise though.

This is a beta tho according to the poster.
I just got a 58.3 mb update saying may security update, but I already had may update?
I just had an update but not to 8.1 I guess it is for the issues that the May patch has caused.
9.5.11 full package is available on official download, just Google for MIUI firmware Mi A1.
Nevermind, that's still 8.0. Shouldn't be long until 8.1 full firmware goes live at en.miui.com.
8.0 only 8.1 to 8.0 reverting total data erasing donot update

General Lack of roms for A53 5g

This phone has no roms available, I would appreciate if someone could port lineage os to it.
I think it's because most people have a carrier subsidized A53 with a locked bootloader. It's got a nice screen and the speakers sound good, but it's laggy & personally I don't think it's worth $450 for an unlocked retail version. Especially when they won't fix it if something fails within the warranty period.
Biggest issue would be the lack of volte on lineage roms. Pricing doesnt help either, something like a xiaomi 12x is a way better deal and its a lot smoother.

You could download Nova Launcher
I'm working on a device tree, which will then allow for lineage & other roms to be made
LineageOS has GSI so you could install GSI but personally wouldn't recommend it since its mainly for testing and has tons of bugs
