Update button gone in settings? [Phone Gone Now] - Honor 6X Questions & Answers

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?

Have you tried factory reset or reinstall the rom?

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.

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...

Should my UK phone be updating to Nougat?

I received my UK/Europe phone today and I was wondering if the Nougat update should be coming through? It did a big 450mb update after powering on for the first time but i'm still on EMUI 4.1.3.
Thanks
I've been trying the manual update check for a few hours now, tried rebooting to see if that might help but so far nothing.

U want Nougat right now? Whitch firmware u have now? Probably your model is BLN-L21C432B???

Why wouldn't want I want Nougat, is it not good? Current version is BLN-L21C432B151.

If it's anything to go by, I have Nougat and EMUI 5.0 on my Huawei P8 Lite 2017 (same SoC as the Honor 6X) and it is brilliant
Sorry for being such a noob but I how do i identify which update I should select in Firmware Finder?

It looked to be some sort of security update?
Couple of quick questions..
Did you update it in the end?
Which network are you on? If 3 have you had any probs with 4g calls (VoLTE)?
Dude.
Wait for some days. Also here in Austria we got the Update 2 Weeks ago.
I think is a time delay. How long do you have your phone now?
I do not suggest that Firmware Finder tool. Looks not serious in my point of view.
And that confusion about the lots of updates and files in there? No way...
If you do want do update manually, then do it in a right way and flash it by you own.
Good luck.
Just wondering if you ever got your update. I got the Honor 6x this week and still no update. Am on Android 6 and EMUI 4.1.3. Have spoken to Huawei and Three and have got nowhere. I'm no geek so too scared to use Firmware Finder. Is this my only option??
I'm currently on BLN-L21C432B151
But everyone link posted for nougat or through firmware finder I get
Nrd90 test key and on every reboot I get device verification error no matter which version I install why is this
Three sold me an Honor 6x recently which will not update to EMUI 5 or to Android 7. According to Honor UK Tech support, BLN-L21C432B151 will not update and they have no update in the pipeline. Tough luck seems to be their attitude. Three did not have a clue and will not change the phone. Stupidly (as it turns out) I bought from the Three shop in Canterbury, their take is, "too bad" and if I had bought over the phone from Three direct (or on the web site) I could have simply returned it for a refund. Supported my local shop and realise now that I was a mug, I have no right of return even if you feel you've been "stiffed." No wonder the High Street is dying. Anyway, it looks like we suckers are stuck with what I consider old tat which is outdated from day 1. Thanks, Three and Honor. Now I know who to avoid.
I bought 6x from amazon.uk. Updated to nougat with FF. Had problem with disappeared update app in settings after flashing rom from FF but I found 100-150 MB update somewhere here on xda that fixed it. Since then I am getting all security patches every few months. Did not rooted and not tried any custom ROMs yet. I am getting old I suppose ?

Boy do I feel stupid going through all the hassle to "softtware convert" it to a TA-1025 to get Oreo Beta a while back.
I bought into the rumors about not getting Oreo too hard.
Is this via an OTA? Have you done anything to the phone or is it just like you've taken it out of the box? I haven't received the update yet. Also what country are you in? I'm in Australia. Hopefully I get the update, even though nokia tech said I wouldnt out of the region

It's via OTA. I'm in Taiwan and I haven't done anything to my phone yet. I did read on other forum that some people haven't received yet, maybe it just need a few days to receive.
Sent from my TA-1003 using XDA Labs
Wrong thread for my original post, sorry.
Yep I just checked and Android Oreo OTA is here! Woohooo
TA1000 got it too via OTA. Working fine, feels snappier. But the app to add more languages crashes (locale more pro) so I'm stuck with English for now which is not a big deal though.

Try to clean data for this app (locale more pro) in apps admin. The best is to make a hard reset after the phone have been updated to Oreo.
I think the official Android 8.0 ota update killed my recovery. There simply just is a broken robot saying "no command" where the recovery used to be. GD Nokia bs phone.

Anyone flash this yet to verify TWRP/Magisk still working properly?
Just updated, Magisk 16.0 works fine, passes SafetyNet. I don't install TWRP, but booting 3.2.0.0 from fastboot works fine.
OTA Update ist da !!

How did u get this ?
Why in my pixel 2 I don't get the OTA updates ? I thought I would get the OTA update as it goes online. Bought the phone in Germany , TMobile and it's unlocked. What should I do ?
Does anyone know if google have actually addressed the multi touch bug yet? I did have a look at the changelog posted on page one and obviously didn't see it but I just want to clarify

Press the "check for updates" button? If you are already up to the Feb security update then that should be working (it did on mine earlier this evening).
I did. And as you see I'm in Feb and still nothing

You can flash the OTA manually with adb sideload if you don't want to wait.

This will work but you will need a factory reset afterwards cause lot of things won't work after clearing this cache especially push notifications.
The best way to update is to update google playservices to version 12 stable and check ota.

But why my phone doesn't update automatically the Google play services ? I still have the version 11.9. I guess that's why I don't don't have OTA update. There's anyway to make the Google play services update by itself ??

Updated to Android 10 through normal OTA in Spain. Data preserved, without any problem. Everything works fine. (model XT2019-1, RETEU)
Hi,
I have an issue related the adaptive brightness: it's activated but the brightness not changing (at the moment it remains at 82%). If I modify manually it remains at that value.
I have already:
- disabled/enabled it
- rebooted the smartphone
- reset the smartphone
but the issue persists.
Any idea?
Thanks.
