In fact you're right. But if you search manually for FRD-504 then press ok on the keyboard a page with that model will appear andyou'll be able to read the changelog at least ahaha

Has anyone tried to flash the Oreo update?

Why is the Gallery bin listed as a new FEATURE by the way? o. O
Did they change something about it?

How can you search for it? Through "Add model" ?

Yes, then search for "FRD-504" and just tap ok (even though it won't suggest you any device).
It should then appear in the list where you usually tap on your own device.

Yeah, follow Frau Son advice, it will be alright

For those thinking of flashing it, abort mission. I just found out that this oreo update, it's for the chinese model. Sooooo.. another waiting game again.

Haha yeah i think they just copy paste all the features for updating phones like Honor 6x,7x,8 etc. so that's why it says recycle bin even though we already have that feature since like January patch i think so.

Well, I really don't want to take the risk of updating with a third party application, It can run the risk of errors or packages not completely installed.
7.0 should've been on every Honor 6x Device by the end of May, unfortunately that's not true it seems
Rommco05 said:
??? My girlfriend have Honor 6X for 2 weeks. I setup her phone and after first boot dont shows any OTA updates. No problem via Firmware Finder I install Nougat without any problems, this is fact!!
edit: sorry I a bit bad understand your post. FF is very useful app, many many users of Honor 8 use this app for upgrade phones without problems

I understand bro but i don't want to brick this im scared to use it
Rommco05 said:
This is something like OTA update, but thats your choice
edit: whitch model you have? If EU I can explaine full process, it is very simple and maybe helpful for everyone who dont want to wait for Nougat, but dont want unlock bootloader

One last thing, clear cache and data from hicare and try again. If its still not working, just wait it.
I bet he doesnt have AL but european device...
When I change the region to China, it does change but there is this popup displaying me to use "Huawei ID made in China" everytime I access hicare app.
Also, do I need to do anything else, except changing region on hicare?
Yes im on colal10
No, i just changed, entered hicare, went to update, and i got a chinese msg and selected the right option and then it went to the update window and told me that i got a new update.
I didnt have any problem with the huawei id. Mine is for Romania.

Can someone, who had it working before the July update check if maybe this brings back tap-to-wake funcionality, or at least an option for it? (Judging from the larger size, it might.)
