Hi there
I am having the above OTA appearing in Firmware Finder, though not yet approved for installation.
Anybody knowing anything about this update?
I have a MHA-L29C636B158 mate 9. I have rebranded the phone from the chinese firmware. MHA-L29C636B181 is available but i am not receiving any OTA updates. knowing that when i rebranded the phone i received an OTA update and thats it.
Please help
In your case you have to update manually via Firmware Finder.
After rebrand some users told that they received updates, other people told did not receive. So, it is better don't wait too much time and force update
Any guidline you can offer would be great

In step when you will search for rom, type model MHA-L29BC636
Notice that B189 appeared (number 97776) - it is latest rom for C636 region on Android 7.0
Check firmware access without IMEI
And if yes, download and install it by guide.
Any MHA-L29 user with C185 got oreo update as of yet ? Firmware finder showed some, but they are not approved for installation.
I updated my phone with update 110949 dated 31/12/2017.
OTA PUSHED for europeen L29 and L09 C432 release B363

OTA only for europeen region C432 and release B363
Yes, I have a Middle East unlocked variant of Mate9. Last night, I got tired og Huawei's lazy and slow updater, so I downloaded Firmware Finder and it offered me the update, as soon as I changed my DNS setings.
Right now, its downloading a 2.67 GB OTA update. Its version number is coming up as 8.0.0.370 (C185).
HTH
I have downloaded the system update thru the Huawei official update tool, and both times after it downloads the large file, it tries to verify and refuses to install it, saying that Authentication Failed. This package is unauthorised and will be deleted. Please download and install an authorised installation package.
Any ideas, how to update to Oreo 8.0 ?
Thanks.
Firmware finder can only install if your IMEI is approved for update.
B370 is most likely too new to be approved yet for anyone.
@bym007 you can use HWOTA, which requires unlocking bootloader (can be locked again, so it says Lock and not relocked).
If you are on Nougat: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
If you want to update Oreo - Oreo: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-oreo-update-package-t3699522
Or paid alternatives.
Thanks for your comment. I didn't how to check for eligibility. I have since found the latest Oreo update 8.0.0.360, and then updated my phone.
My phone was also showing strange lags and unpredictable behaviours here and there, so I used the opportunity to factory reset the phone after applying the update.
I've downloaded and installed Oreo build 371 with no issues on my Mate 9 MHA-L29C185.
I bought my son a second hand Mate 9 last February for his birthday and all is well, the phone works perfectly and he is delighted.
We were talking about software yesterday and when he might get the 9.0 pie update. It turns out he hasn't even got Oreo yet and his phone is still on 7.0 and is on February 2017 security patch!
When you search for update on the phone there is nothing, In Hicare there is nothing. I used Huawei Firmware Finder and can see a number of 8.0 updates and a couple are compatible with his phone. I have followed the app instruction method to download and install, but no joy. When I follow the process the last step is to go back to the phone settings and check for update but there is still nothing showing.
Can anyone help?
He has a Mate 9 MHA-L29 Dual Sim variant.

I used a force update with a modified hosts for Windows and modded hisuite, unfortunately I can't find the link anymore but it's here on xda somewhere.
The procedure is you download firmware Finder in your phone, find the latest firmware that is approved for your phone, then click update via erecovery, and the modded hisuite will see it and update your phone
hisuite now can update till 9.1
Ther are some debranding- instructions for Europeans and US to L22, with informations for updating to Oreo.
It shoud be possible, just wait after debranding to L22 for automatic OTA-Update. But I never heard from anyone, who got ist. Gerneraly the last update I have seen for L22, was B369. Firmwarefinder shows only updates half a year ago. Are these infos true or is the only way, to use after debranding a seperate couple of actions, to get Oreo?
Often I see also questions for help, to get back from oreo to nougat. Special reasons well-known?
Thank you for any information!
Did you get any update via OTA after debranding.
Because I did from b340 to 350 and then I updated to Oreo manually back in july.
