No more updates since Oreo arrived C432 - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

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.

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.

Likewise. May security patch.

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.

Which rom has the latest security patch? Can I install it?

Hi all,
I have an MHA-L29 and it is currently running 8.0.0.360(C567). The security update is dated January 2018.
My company requires that my phone not have a security patch more than 90 days old. Is there a ROM compatible with MHA-L29 that has a newer security patch? What is the newest security patch available in any MHA-L29 ROM from Huawei, does anyone know?
And how likely am I to be able to install it? This is a retail US model phone, so far as I know.

It's better to buy other phone
Your requirement is too hard to satisfy.
You have US region and latest version is 8.0.0.360.
Even if Huawei will post new ROM need 2-3 weeks more to test and approve.
Additionally Mate 9 released at November 2016. 15 months ago. No guarantee that 8.0.0.360 is not last...
Ok. There are other regions with newer security patch, like C636. But you have to rebrand your device (unlock bootloader, install custom recovery, install patched recovery) - so beat your security. Sure, it is temporary, but in advance you have to rebrand back if region C636 will not post next ROM in 90 days...
As I know, region C00 (China) has latest security patch and regularly updates. Rebrand to C00 if you are not confusing by hieroglyphs and specific memory manager (it is very aggressive to background apps)
P.s. to rebrand when using Oreo you have to rollback on Nougat's ROM, then rebrand using oeminfo in HwOta, then upgrade to Oreo.
This way cause oeminfos from Oreo are different with Nougat's files.
Gotcha. Thanks!
I was afraid of that. I'm OK with Android and Linux in general, but I don't want to do a lot of hard, risky work over and over again just to keep my phone running. Company is recommending Google Pixel 2 or iPhone. Not exciting, but I'm getting too old and lazy to hack my Android devices once a month.
Thanks for your help!

Any OTA after 8.0.0.130(C432)?

Hello,
I recieved my UK model of Honor V10 (BKL-L09) today which is on firmware 8.0.0.130(C432) out of the box with Jan security updates. Is this the latest? (I've checked the updates manually several times but nothing!)
I think I've read somewhere that March security patches have been dispatched but I can't remember where I read this.
I still didn't install the sim card yet as I'll need to buy a new one from the shop tomorrow but I'm not sure if this has any influence on having any OTA update showing up.
P.S. Firmware finder didn't find anything!
Also, I'd like to know an approximate date for Official Oreo 8.1 + EMUI 8.1 ROM for European models (as it is the case with the USA models which are on these latest versions out of the box)

Model is BKL-L09
Now it's 3 months since we receive updates ... Bah ...
I have never gotten any update still on 120(c433)
I do not understand why it does not make improvements on a still unripe terminal. At least update the security patches .. Bah ..

latest firmware in MHA-AL00

I haven't received any update since Jan 2018, latest FW version I have is 8.0.0.342, wonder if anyone here has similar or different version and what he did to install it. I'm not rooted yet.
I'm living in China, and I'm still on 8.0.0.342 as well. I check my phone for updates on a daily basis, because I'm sure there must be an imminent update
good to know, wonder what happened to every quarter updates as Huawei was doing last year
8.0.0.354(C00) is now available OTA, it contains the March 2018 security patches

update AL09 8 2 0 158

hi
someone has try this update ?
What is the change ?
Thx
It's just a Security update. December patch.
+1. Did the update 2 days ago. Just the December security patch.
I updated to 158,in Firmware Finder shows 165 and Android 9
Sorry to hijack your thread, the pie update that's available it states compatibility of the firmware not approved for installation, would it be safe to update without bricking my phone or should I just wait for the official OTA?
