could just manual install the OTA if its that big of a deal.

Update Google play services and you will get the ota directly.

I got a message about this update.
My current firmware revision: 2250.21.40600.707.
Updating now..
EDIT:
Installed: firmware revision now 2250.21.50001.707. No sign of "internet sharing" under system settings, so looks like it was just bug fixes. Just to note, my ROM's installed languages (English, Chinesese Traditional, Chinese simplified) were retained - so looks like once you have X languages, they're there forever.

Another thing to note is that your carrier must also authorize the capability for internet sharing.
Sorry for my english.

Honor 6X Nougat beta

So I opted in for Nougat beta (Pakistan) a week back. No update yet. Did anyone get it yet? If not, does anyone know how long they take before they start rolling out the beta to people who signed up for it?
I am also from Pakistan, still no Nougat updates for me, don't know when they gonna release it

Honor 6x [BLN-L21C185] What's your current Update version?

Couple of questions, it would seem that the Honor 6x [Middle East version] has not received the complete Emui 5 update, twin apps are unavailable. As a Matter of fact it also hasn't received the August Security Updates yet. Can anyone with the C185 version's confirm this for me?
Would alsonbe appreciated if other version users could also confirm this for me. Thanks
B340
I haven't gotten security updates since the March one. What are twin apps? I'm using the US version I think.
B361, the update that came out in June I think, and yes it's full of bugs like my standby time drops form 60 hours to 19 hours after a week or so and then I have to factory reset (I've done all the usual things to prevent it but it suddenly drops :/), it has no app twin feature as the OP said, it's frustrating as the other regions are getting consistent updates and bug fixes but not c185 it's baffling -_-
---------- Post added at 08:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 AM ----------
Also the Rom is Laggy, the performance in games is the worst, the cell reception is weak as campared to the MM Rom that it came with, and the worse part is you can't roll back to MM now :/, firmware finder shows a b371 update that was made on 15th of August but it hasn't been released, but it's just the security updates nothing more

Twin app is using an app with 2 different accounts (whatsapp for example), it is like parallel space if you know it

No, there are some updates for the 6x that don't have twin app, wait for an update and it should be available

No to both. At present, I don't have a computer to do that on.
I guess you should be on the latest update to get twin app for the 6x

Twin app is by default on Nougat for most of the devices (if I am not wrong)
Use this to get this feature and see if it makes any different- https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-clone-any-application-with-emuis-app-twin-feature-no-root/
I'm using a B24 device. Do you think Huawei will hold up updates for it? What is B24, US?

I think that needs a computer with adb on it.

Yes US one.
Until you get twin app, try parallel space in meanwhile, if you really need it
Really don't understand why 6X is missing twin app feature.
I think the first OTAs of the 6x don't include twin app, maybe the latest ones do

Pie is now available ota for Xfinity S9/S9+

Here's a shocker, Xfinity beats all the other US carriers. Available as of January 28th
First time Xfinity has been first for anything!
Should be available ota on most US carriers within a day or two.
Not super surprised, they don't really bloat up their roms. What version are they pushing? I'll have to ODIN back to get on the official update flow.
---------- Post added at 09:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 AM ----------
I found the version - G965USQU3CSAB, I know what I'm doing when I get home tonight
Just downloaded it and installing now.

I had installed it 2 days ago, but I have a different version(G965USQU3CSA7). I wonder should I try to install this version?

It would be newer then CSA7, probably a good idea. You should be able to Odin directly to it.

December Update Brings Theming And Live Caption To Our Device

What the title says, We now have built theming like pixel 4/xl and live captions. Couldnt find a thread for discussion about these new features which gives us a new experience on pixel 3 devices. If you know of any more new features then please feel free to post in this thread.
These are a few screen shots of theming capability and live captioning. The LockScreen clock also gets a theme, we dont have the software to customise the lockscreen as of yet although the fonts get applied automatic.
Lockscreen font change.

Same. Still nothing for me. Don't really feel like side loading it. Lol. I'm not overly concerned about it. This is definitely the first time I've experienced this. My wife (same phone same carrier) has not gotten it either. We're both on Google fi. Oh well. Maybe next year. Ayyyyyy.
