Hi all,
I'm from the UK and have the Honor 8, was wondering when I might be receving the Android 7.0/Nougat update?
Reason being, I've bought the phone and don't want to start using it until the update is installed, I liked the look of the Beta ect..
Maybe there is a way to update it manually? My phone is stock btw.
Cheers.
Depending on the variant of the Honor 8 you have, the update should be rolling out shortly. If you're eager to update your phone however, there are various methods available that should allow you to update your phone to Nougat; just do a quick look through of the other subforums for the Honor 8and you'll find your answer.

Look at this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/debrand-frd-al00-to-frd-l09-update-to-t3552445
Just skip root/debranding part. Charles method works seamlessly...
No I'm running N in FRD-L09 and it works great. It's really stable and EMUI5 is just amazing.
Can i know if honor 8 FRD-L19 will get oreo update?

Nothing sure for now. They're working on it.
We are not sure about it. But probably no........ ?
Never say never :angel: I have seen anything from yes we are to no we are not. So really it is all just speculation. If they want to keep customers happy they better live up to their two-year update quota that they said they would do.:angel:
There is no official info yet. But in my opinion there will be update, but later. They will have to test and debug Oreo on announced devices first.
I believe there will be an update as well :victory: I mean even the Moto g4 is getting it ?
It has not been confirmed yet. They will need to test it out and do debugging, etc. So we just need to wait.
Will we see Oreo Beta to C567 US region anytime soon?
Just want to have the latest security updates.
Just like any other devices (Except for Nexus/Pixel devices) its always a waiting game. I'm sure We'll see Oreo within the next 6 months. But no one knows a timeline.
We don't even have 5.1 yet

There is a Beat Build for the C567, Build B302 with EMUI 5.1. (September Security Patch) I am running it currently. It has some quirks as any beta does, but over all its nice. I feel as though the stable build should be out shortly after the Mate 10 launches.
Here is the link to my post on A/C with my review/experience with it.

how did you install it?
Please let me know! Let's see that project Treble work.
According to heise.de, a german news site, it will get Android Pie.
But i would't expect it to happen very soon...

Huawei is in no rush to upgrade a flagship that's been superseded by three generations by now.
We might get Pie, I suspect somewhere in April or May next year. By that time we might as well unlock our bootloaders and flash a build of OpenKirin.
I would if I could. Is there any way to unlock the bootloader since Huawei stopped providing codes? Openkirin sounds neat.
I've a TA-1055 in the UK and haven't had an update since the August security patch 8.1.
I know others have the Android 9 update but I'm still waiting for the OTA to arrive. There are some features I like in the latest version but there are plenty of posts on here about problems and how to rollback to 8.1.
Like with every version if updates go smoothly and all working fine then yes updating is always recommended but Pie still seems buggy over all.
Is it worth upgrading yet?

Don't know if it is worth upgrading. I am also in UK on TA-1055 Oreo 8.1 but Oct security patch which came OTA. Still no sign of OTA update to 9 and HMD support is useless regarding info about UK versions getting it. They keep saying it takes time to roll out.

No real issues on mine, very happy with Pie.
But as this forum shows, YMMV.
No issues whatsoever on Pie, here. The only problem I have with the phone right now is that the brightness doesn't go below 16%, which isn't related to the Pie update, according to reddit.

I have an issue with camera... When taking a photo and trying to view it from within the app... the camera app just stop responding...
I did not have this issue on Oreo.

Not worth it if you like being a maybe semi newbie super user with this, because after it you'll become an iSheep.
As with any new phone I always disable most of the stock Google apps from the start. Just thought I'd re-enable the main Google app and reboot into safe mode.
Bosh! Now I get the update notification for Android 9 and ran the install plus received all the latest security updates.
Main instant issue on Pie is the search bar that cannot be removed without using a new launcher or rooting..Bugger
OTA Pie arrived on my UK TA-1055
Just to note that I got the OTA Pie update here in the UK on a TA-1055 last night. I was on 8.1.0 August before that.
It came through with the November security update, the December update came through straight after.
All seems to be working fine with no factory reset or out like that.
No issues with mine, but nothing to write home about either. Android 9.0 is meh in general. Don't stress so much about it.
I upgraded from Oreo w/ Oct SP to Pie w/ Dec SP. Is it worth the upgrade? I'll let the Pie battery stats speak for itself ? (n.b. I fully wiped /data by factory reset from recovery then restored from Google cloud backup).
