Mate 9 C567 OTA for oreo - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

Is Oreo for C567 available through OTA? I have not used my Mate 9 in a while, I powered it up today thinking that Oreo is available for USA C567 variant, and the phone says I'm up to date? WTF??? I thought Huawei pushed the update already ...

The update was initially released for China. I think it might be hitting Europe at the moment? I'm guessing that the USA probably won't get it until after the holidays. I hope I'm wrong and it comes sooner, but the safe bet is too assume it won't arrive until January.

I've had 3 mate phones. On the 2, the update came the LAST day of the quarter (was told first quarter of xx year)
On the mate 8, was told the 1st quarter of the year...came 2 weeks into the 2nd quarter.
My guess, I remember them saying "in December", so I'd look for it between now, and the middle of January.
I know the whole area takes a holiday in October sometime..

Update is on hicloud anyway. They just need to approve everyone...
Though, latest for C567 is MHA-L29 8.0.0.321(C567), which is still beta. Official should be B36x.

Oreo rolling out OTA in Denmark

Saturday November 25th my Nokia 8 received Android Oreo OTA - I have therefore officially left the beta edition! The first 24 hours have been smooth and I have detected no issues. My carrier in Denmark is Telenor.
Its been rolling out worldwide since last week.

Has anyone received C185 update since April 2017??

I love Huawei - but I bought a OnePlus 5T and I don't think I'm coming back to Huawei.
It's too long. Like I'm invisible. Couldn't care less now.

Where do you live?
Example: American users, which are living in USA and bought model for USA market (region C567 ) and use american carriers, got and getting OTA. In February USA region received massive update to Oreo.
But... If american user bought phone in China and using it at home, he/she seriously decrease chances to get update.
I also had issues with ota having a c185 in Europe. It was possible to get major updates by using the 'download latest full package' tab in the updated on the phone. Incremental were more difficult so in the end I changed the phones region to c432.

Wait, you're just getting 131 update?
I received .131 OTA last night from Three UK. Apart from the security update I can't see any other material differences at the moment.
Single Sim versions are still on 130

Yeh, but for security update the file is huge, should only need to be around 60mb

This update but for the single SIM variant came through to my phone today. 782MB.
I took the SIM out before checking for updates via Settings.
I'm downloading it now while on holiday in France, EE single SIM version. Would be nice if the wi-fi I'm on was quicker than 528k download.
.134 is now listed on Firmware Finder, over a month after the EU versions get .152!!.... But it won't download!
At this rate, we'll probably get Oreo by November next year?!
Correction: Eu versions have had .152 for 2 months!

Complain to huawei and petition for them to get rid of these stupid uk region updates. We need to all be the c432 version
As far as I know UK is still part of the Europe. I don't know why Huawei think that we don't....

its the network operators (three, ee and o2) who have dictated to huawei what the firmware and updates should be. i think vodafone are the only uk network operator that supplied the c432 model which is also for UK, its just the c782 model that is crippled.
So glad I rebranded to C432, see no reason why I should be on firmware 3-4 months old when I can have pie installed right now.
EE are dog****, no reason to delay the updates yet they seem to do it just to piss off their customers.

I messed about changing an o2 single sim to dual sim but kept it at c782 and the bootloader code changed. Big mistake.
Got so fed up sold it on ebay paid the contract off took it out again on 3 for £12 a month cheaper and rebranded an already dual sim to c432 with no bootloader code changing.
All in all good business. Probably shouldnt of bothered with a huawei phone agajn though too much hassle

Does Samsung update their unlocked phones?

I'm sitting here on February security patch mid April. I bought the unlocked 10e thinking it would get updates faster since that's how it's been worth every other unlocked phone I've bought. I must've been wrong though.
They just released the March one today for most people on carriers
Don't worry about it, we will get it soon.
April 12 2019 OTA
Just installed, they fixed the adaptive brightness(I think), but not the promised "super night mode".
Yeah I got it today too.

Have any UK owners of EE sold M5's, received an update to Pie?

I bought a second hand, originally EE sold. M5 10.8 with LTE a month ago.
Happy with the product except for two things
For some reason EE have blocked and removed the phone functionality, even though they left SMS messaging....
I have tried to update the tablet to Pie by
Tablet....Settings...Update
Hisuite connection and update through the application
Both the above via VPN to multiple European countries
No joy, so I was wondering, has ANYONE in the UK with an EE sourced M5 received an update or is this one of those highly irritating, blocked by vendor IMEI number problems that won't be resolved until EE extract the digit from whichever dank orifice it is currently stuck in......
Nothing on mine either, been checking for months
As an update, I reached out to Huawei UK support (08000 0886700), explained my situation and I was informed that, after I gave them all my tablet details, I should expect an update within the next 1-2 weeks..... One waits with bated breath...….
Never ever buy network devices. You only have yourself to blame.

Me too 4 weeks ago wonder if it was unlocked and network changed if it would update then?
Checked my MediaPad M5 on EE today and was very excited to see that an update was available. My excitement soon waned when i saw that it was just a security patch update and not an upgrade to Android and EMUI 9
Still it's the first security update since September 2018 and it's now up to August 2019, so at least it's had something come through.
CMR-AL09
Now on: 8.0.0.203 (C440)
You mean a downgrade to Pie. It's rubbish on the M5.
