Hi there,
I just received my Honor 8 from Gearbest with the stock firmware FRD-L09C636B130.
The issue is that doesnt matter which region i choose the OTA updater doesnt find anything. Its frustrating since everyone else is already running Nougat.
Does anyone know how to force the update?
PS: I currently live in New Caledonia, which is a French territory on the Pacific.
Thanks!!
Be sure to update the HiCare app to the latest version. Then you will receive the Nougat update in 1-2 days. I received mine the day after purchasing the phone and upgrading HiCare

hi. i just had same situation and solved it with "HW firmware finder" . i cant assure you anything but you should try . so far Nougat and emui 5 is great.
64gb , bought from gearbest, so i thInk we were In the same situation.
firmware : B130 → B360. dont forget to backup your data.
you can install an app called hw firmware finder on google play store. you dont need bootloader unlock or anythIng like that. basically app helps you to OTA update manually. there is an thread about how to use this app. so you can fInd it easily
The answer is : YES. IT WILL UPDATE.
Spoiler
Greetings:
I upgraded to emui5.0 via firmware finder, now that the official​ update has been released, will I be able to update when the OTA is available for my device?
Hello? Has no-one who upgraded via firmware finder received the update?

Hey Sanjay! I am Vivek. I live in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Did you really got the official OTA for Nougat? I bought my 6x like 3 weeks back. I read that a lot of people have manually flashed the update from Firmware Finder and ended up having many problems. I didnt wanted to take any risk and was waiting for the OTA.
I am shocked and happy to know that someone from my country has already got the OTA. So I guess, I will be getting it soon too right?

Hey vivek , I did not manually update my phone and I am sure its not beta either , because I am not registered for their beta program . So , you can expect the official OTA soon.

All of you. Every single one of you misread the question or you decieed to completely ignore it. And to ask again, anyone who updated their hinor 6x via firmware finder to Nougat will they receive the official update?

Sometimes, ithe OTA arrives after weeks it got released, like me and a friend when he received B360 (first nougat update) and I got it 3 weeks later
Pretty late answer, but just want to say that I finally got Nougat (EMUI 5). Now I'm waiting for EMUI 5.1 hehe
I actually got it 3 days ago, but only remember this thread today...

You won't get the update unless,your manufacturer or your mobile carrier offer the update. Not all devices get updates, some never get updates at all. Just because there is a new android version available does not mean your device will get it. That is not how it works.
Check with your device manufacturer or your mobile carrier to see when/if your device will get the update.

Nope, hasn't received it yet. Last update was April 5th I believe. Pretty lame and pathetic if ask me. Huawei wants to break into the US market they are going to have to start doing better than this. Had it to do over with, I'd got something else besides this phone.
Oreo updates

There is only a beta release for our c567 so far, to install any of the ones for other regions you're going to have to unlock your bootloader, rebrand, and install that Oreo using the steps in other threads, our mate 9 c567 Oreo should be rolling out as an OTA update in a few weeks so I'd be patient and wait a while, I installed a different regions ROM and want really happy with it at all.
Dear @ revjamescarver,@ Thunderbolt69
thank you for the detailed reply's. Ill probably wait for the ota .I have side loaded twrp but not rooting until update will roll out.
Im trying to like the phone, hopefully the update will roll soon
Happy Holidays
