In other threads about the exact same "new" 140 updates, it's told that it is emui 4 with google security updates.
I I got it well, there is nothing to upload for firmware finder, as it searches on Huawei servers. Correct me if I'm wrong

Someone say that this version is marshmallow on another thread but it's not. Make firmware takes Time ! And Time is money ! They can't do 3 or 4 updates for 3 peoples in the World ! So for me it's test build for new updates (Oreo or nougat)
Since septembre, we can view 4 builds (B350,B351,B135,B140) ! B135 is a sp03 like the B392 sp01 was a test build for new 5.0.1 EMUI version !

Imho you're wrong when you think only few people still use MM on their honor 8.
Latest MM was 131, N is 3xx, and this is 140...
(edit) Look at firmware sizes, 131/140, all nougat roms..
When you have sources, upstreaming to google updated source might not be that hard.
Anyway, I can't tell more as I did not rollback to MM just to try this.

VPN for update?

Hey guys, so a friend of mine has a One Plus 3 but he didn't recived the update yet. So he utilized a vpn to connect to servers from Canada and UK and he got the update.
Has some one claimed that he got the update from sweden, if there are any possibility to connect to another area to look for that update. Specially in sweden

Sadly that won't work unless you have a device from that region or you're running the previous firmware from that region. The OP3 isn't region specific, so he can get the update from any region. The Honor 8 though has various models for each region of the world. (L04/L14 US, L09 EU, etc)

Ohh I see, thanks for responding. That is sad tho :/
You shouldn't need to connect to the device OEM's server via a VPN in order to get updates for your device. As OTA OS updates are sent to each device dependent on their model number and the regional OS settings.
if you know the update version just download it online and manually install it?

I read the thread but I'm out of luck cuz I don't have wifi no router near me. To complicated to do that.
:/
I don't know why everybody is in such a hurry to upgrade their OS from Marshmallow to Nougat. When Nougat is only available for a handful of devices at the moment. The majority of the other Nougat release are still in the Beta cycle and have numerous bugs that have yet to be addressed yet.

Just wait till you notice that allot of features that were in Marshmallow are missing in the Nougat Beta. While the performance maybe slightly better than Marshmallow. Nougat still isn't ready for retail use on the Honor 8 yet.

All essential features are here. Getting 5 to 6 sot.
I haven't faced a single issue. Plus I'm not a guy for complaining about features. I buyer the Honor 8 because of speed. And that's what I'm getting.

It's because the Nougat on this phone means EMUI 5 and it's 10x better than EMUI 4.1 .. trust me
it's a much better phone on Nougat EMUI5 ( Even Beta) BTW I think the current B360 for the L04 is the final Beta.
It will go live in the next 4 or 5 weeks. (Huawei is really slow)

B360 is definitely a fully functional build. I have yet to find anything broken and it even includes Vulkan api. As said above, EMUI 5.0 is miles ahead of EMUI 4.1. It's a much better and cleaner looking UI.

AH! I forgot that the new version of EMUI is better than the current version. It's the same with most android device OEMs.

FRD-L09C432 from B320 (beta) to B360, OTA ?

Hey guys.
I'm in the beta program. Looks like i cannot see the new firmware on HiCare and also in system update. Some tester found a way to upgrade through official channel or we have to wait for some reasons ?
OTA B360 for FRD-L09C432B320 is released!
Yeah i know
Problem is that my phone has not yet found any update yet.

If you cant find in HiCare on "OS update early" than rollback to B131 and check again. I made it now just to test this way because i was already on B360 using Charles and i found the update.
A rollback ? Sound like to much of an hassle to me. I just want to update the phone normally.
i'll wait a bit.
For me it work via Settings / System Update.
System Update found 360 - while Hicare could not.
I was on 320 (beta)

It's nothing that hard, you just need to force update two dload folders and thats all. After you can do the update normally.
Guys, let's try to concentrate all the questions and info in one thread!

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.

News about "B390"!

Hi there. There has been an Honor event in Sicily. The fact is that they confirmed an update coming this month, probably called B390 with April security patches and other surprises. What do you think about it?
i think that opening new threads for speculating without actual info is no help mate... i read this already in another thread. Better not fill the forum with no use topics.

The honor 8 FRD-L04 has recieved the B385 update which contains the April Security Patch. Also the FRD-L09 is receiving the April patch under the name B389. So it probably contains the May Security patch.

on top of that i think that since we have pretty stable ROMs nobody will care anymore of EMUI
I hope it brings something to the table
Hi all, noob question, there are 3 files in the firmwarefinder, which one should I download for the dload flash methode?
B389 has may security patch its good

Encryption is the dangerous factor here.
On FRD-L19 the small (660MB) B389 is flashable with FF proxy method. But the same, but L09 version (which version signed "approved to install") not flashable.

Just look for BLN-L21 firmware ending with 360 or 361.

Just register your phone through HiCare and wait a couple of days. Push updater once in a while. Why use firmware finder ?
