Have you tried the firmware finder ?
U will find it in the play store.
There are you tube vids on how to use it.
There are also guides on here for it.
There is also the Charles method.
You should have a good look and read though the threads

Maybe you can try to connect it to computer and use HiSuite to check for the update.
Or you "check update" by using your data plan. (The reason I stated this is due to if I check for the update via my office WiFi, I couldn't receive it due to our IT department is blocked update website)

What country are you in ?
Have you contacted Honor via HiCare ?
Google+
It's worth trying to speak to them.
Find out what's happening coz i should have had your update by now

I'm also from Malaysia and I didn't get the notification for the update. I had to check for updates using the hicare app.

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?

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.

C432 last officialy issued FW

All,
I am struggeling a bit with all the FW's available from various sources....Can anybody let me know, which was the latetst officialy OTA issued Orea FW update for the European Mate 9 (L29C432)?
Thx!

All,
posted this question some time ago, unfortunatelly without any reply.....I've never got any OTA update since I do own the Mate 9 (fully stock, currently on 8.0.0.365 C432) therefore I run all updates manually through FF.....as FF always have a certain delay in getting FW's approved, I would like to know whitch version is the latest officiall released one and send via OTA by Huawei.
Thx!!

I think Huawei is stopping support for the Mate 9. MHA-L09C432 variant had its last update to Oreo 8.0 with January 2018 Security Patch.

No, received an OTA update 8.0.0.364 C432 on my Mate 9 with security patch Feb 2018 which is faster than my Mate 10, that one is still on the Jan 2018 patch...

That is just rubbish. With treble support updates should come continuously. I installed 8.0.0.364 yesterday via FF.

Stop supporting mate 9? ? This guy dont know what he talking about

i have received new update 366 (OTA) yesterday, From ITALY

I also got the 366 OTA a couple of days (Portugal). Updated phone to March Android security patch level.

Yep, received the OTA on my Mate 9 and the Mate 9 of my wife...8.0.0.366 C432, Mate 9 now is on the same security patch level as my Mate 10 both on the March patch.

Update to 8.0.0.368 was available in FF for me.

Likewise. May security patch.

369 is now also listed.
Sent from my MHA-L29 using Tapatalk

I just installed 368 from OTA update. Face unlock, some App Store app from Huawei and May security update.
EMUI also seems different but version is still 8.0.0. After the update I lost configuration of the app icons / pages I had across 3 pages and I had to add the icons back to home screen (not sure if "home screen" is the correct name). For instance, the folder app icons are now different on how they appear and work.
I also found a settings menu where I can configure the home screen like change the effect how the pages transition between them but not sure if this is something new or I just didn't knew I could configure this.
All in all a good update... Thanks Huawei! Can you please now work on releasing Oreo 8.1 and especially fixing the Bluetooth bug? E.g., when I'm listening to YouTube in the car, the video titles don't show up correctly in the radio's screen. In Nougat it worked flawlessly. Appreciated

Yep, received also the 368 OTA update on the Mate 9...my Mate 10 is running behind (again).

Yeah, got the .368 now too.

Honor 8 FRD-L09C432 updates

Ok guys, I bought my Honor 8 in Italy and I am still on B394 update with August 2017 security patch.
Huawei Firmware finder shows last update B403 March 2018.
What do you do? Do you wait for official one or do you download it yourself via FF?
Thanks a lot.

I advice you to wait for IMEI Batch, when your turns arrive you'll be notified about it. I faced the same problem but after some times i got the OTA and now i'm on B401 waiting for B402 February update. If you're rooted maybe you can try some other methods described here on xda

Only go for updates approved with IMEI in firmware finder. I got my device to B401 from B394 with the DNS thing.

Thanks guys, I just don't understand why some Honor 8 phones sold in Europe have more recent updates and some don't.

Did you register a Huawei account?

Yes, I got two updates in past.

Just pull the trigger. Believe me, B403 is a solid update.

Update availability is not only related to country but also to IMEI batches.
I'm in France, yesterday someone told here he got b402 in France, I did not get it yet, I will probably get it within next hours/days when my IMEI turn has come.
In FF, we kinda see the future : b403 will be installable in about one month, as 402 became installable in the beginning of March, b401 in the beginning of February...

No more updates since Oreo arrived C432

I have a Mate 9 C432 European version.
I install Oreo through Firmware Finder, so I have right now B363.
Through Firmware Finder I can see that the Firmware version is on B367, but newer software is not approved, and the phone always says that I have the last version of software.
I'm still on January security patch.
Is this normal? How can I update to a new version, B367 for example? The C432 officially it's still on January security patch?

You have to wait for Huawei to approve your IMEI number or use the HWOTA8 method. I would wait a bit and see what happens.

I have the same device. Yesterday I received OTA 364 - log states update due to Google system security. I'm now on February Android security patch level.

Same situation here with c432 b363. So much for Treble giving us quick security updates.
364 is not approved for me yet.

364 to 367 is not approved.... It's sad that Oreo was a quick update for a skin device like the Mate 9 but security patch, that is pretty important...
I know I could use FunkyHuawei...

Just got 364 w/ February 5 security update. Just 119Mb upgrade from 363.

My Oreo is still 8.0.0.342.

This website below will help you to get updated to the March 2018 update B366 firmware. This worked for me. Would advise using Method 2.

Welcome to XDA......

I got 364 a few days ago as well. New firmware that get approved for mass release usually take around a month before Huawei gets confident about approving them.

Just got the B364. The importance of the security patch is to get them monthly but February patch is better then nothing.

Yeah, got the B364 too. It surely is better than no updates, I'm personally okay with this update pace; security updates a month late isn't too bad.

Installed 8.0.0.364 yesterday via FF in-app proxy. FF is already showing 8.0.0.368 but no approved so far.

But will be approve?

Installed 8.0.0.342(C00) via OTA several days ago.
