Nougat update is here UK and maybe other countries

Good day all I have two Honor 8s both with UK B131 firmware. Been checking updates for Android 7 but not luck.
So I updated my Huawei ID software to 2.4.1.304_OVE one one deviceand then checked for firmware update of my OS and low and behold the new update is there. 2.38GB and downloaded.
I check once again with my other device which l had not updated the Huawei ID, each time I checked for new OS it came back No Update.. So I once again updated my Huawei ID to the one above once installed I checked for new updated. The new update was there did the download and installed reboot and it's all good to go...
So give it a try if you still not seeing new update each time you try..
??
Now to try out the Twin app...
Things I have notice that has been fixed in Android 7
World clock now list County and city for La Réunion - Saint-Denis. Had to use Mauritius settings in the past.

Glad to hear that. Can you provide screenshot of baseband version, security patch level date and kernel version?
Thanks in advance!
PS: Huawei ID update available here too, FRD- L09

No its not from play store. Go to the Huawei ID once open in the menu Check for updates.. This is what I did and it will show the new Huawei ID update and just download and install no need for reboot.. There after checking check for New OS..
Just a address note I have since done this to two more Honor 8s (4 now) and they all update to. Android 7 this way.. Maybe there is a trigger in the new Huawei ID software?

I should image so in the near future but in the mean time going to see how this Nougat pans out as it is..
Side Note
Twin app when used with Whatsapp is a must for dual sim devices and it works with no lag on the phone.. All default OS settings and firmware

I got my Honor ID update but no OS update here.
I'm in the UK maybe it will turn up later

Did you updated the 06.02.2017 OTA? If you did, does the Android security patch still on 1 December 2016? Thank you sir

@fnudaniel83, i'm still on the software from the 18.01.2017. I will wait before update, because from 7am to 20 pm i have 6 hrs SOT and 40℅ battery left at my usage. The phone is very responsive and fast. I mean i am very, very glad.
My posts in all the topics, related to the Android 7.0 are provoked by the same questions as yours- is there any real differences in versions, or Huawei are shocked by themselves and they dont know what they doing? [emoji23] [emoji23]
You are welcome!

Yeah I'm currently on the current frd-L04c567b60 Android 7 date 03.01.2017 updated via firmware finder. I'm having issues with Bluetooth won't connect to my car system, so I'm hoping there's a new update that will fix that.

Latest update broke my tethering on FRD-L19

So I just received the new update (B398) which also updated me to EMUI 5.0.1.
Now my tethering doesn't work. It turns on but only works for about 10 seconds and after that I'm unable to load any web pages until I reconnect to the phone again. Tested on Mac, Windows and an XBOX One.
Anyone else having the same issue or an idea on how to get it to work again?

Did you try factory reset or reset app setting preference?

Yes, both. Tethering is still not working. This is the european variant. Bought in Finland. Anyone else having the same issue?

I have also that problem with wifi hotspot and EMUI 5.0.1. Strange was that the problem did not occur while on one operator (Elisa, Fin) but a week ago after I changed to other operator (Telia, Fin) wifi hotspot did not work anymore. Other devices can still connect to Honor 8 hotspot, but connection is unusable. Huawei knows about the problem with the latest update and at their flagship store in Helsinki they instructed that it can be fixed with downgrading to emui 4.1. They weren't able to give any information about timetable fo fix. Maybe they haven't found the bug. I went back to 4.0.1 and tethering has been working, but that was not what I hoped. I hope they can fix the problem soon

Same here
Hi, I just bought a honor 8, also from Finland. It's running the same version of android and emui. Having the same problem in the phone. So if you figure out how to solve this I would appreciate it a lot! Has anyone tried the bluetooth tethering?

You need to contract Honor about this issue, them the details of the issue (build number, phone model..etc) hoping from them to work on an update

Which operator you are using? Was the Android 7 / Emui 5 on your phone when you bought it or did you update it after purchase?
I guess bluetooth tethering would work. I didn't try it, but I can confirm that usb tethering did work on Android 7 / Emui 5.

Honor (Huawei) does know about the problem but for some reason they have not been able or willing to solve the issue. I am so pissed at Honor I gonna drop by their flagshipstore today and bother them with some questions concerning the update
EDIT:
I dropped by the Huawei/Honor flagshipstore in Helsinki and they claimed that there should not be any problems with lates OTA update. This sounded strange since when I asked in November if the available update (B360) has fixed the wifi tethering, the answer was no. Well, I just took a leap of faith with update since the staff at flagshipstore said I could bring the phone to warranty service if there would be problem. To my surprise wifi tethering is now working on Emui 5.0 and Android 7. :good: It's bit strange that they don't have this version available at their website nor do they have any information concerning the problem or fix. My current firmware is FRD-L19C432B360.

Too bad, they're not taking their customers as a priority

Is Android 9 Pie worth it? Still on 8.1 Aug here

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.

There's some problem in update which is making device more buggy so wait else your condition will be like us...

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).

April security patch released in Spain for SM-A750FN

On April 27th, it was released the latest security patch in Spain. This firmware can be found in Sammobile.
This update (A750FNXXU1BSD6) is not the same as in Russia (A750FNPUU1BSD2). The changelog only says that it brings security improvements, and I haven't found anything new.

That's very complicated. You should try to install SmartSwitch app from Samsung. I havent had recieved any OTA too. But when I connect to the SmartSwitch you can easily update your phone if any update available. I got the second pie update today in SmartSwitch. If you use SmartSwitch and no update will be there, then you can go into the manual update. Im from Slovakia too BTW

It was updated last night, and the pie is terrible. Changing my device. Farewell friends ?

T-mobile give very few security updates. Even on android update they are almost 3~4 months late to release the new android
