Not available there yet. I need the OTA file as well, I had gotten the OTA update, then ended up accidentally wiping /system while messing around getting it rooted, like an idiot. Managed to downgrade back to MM but bootloader was still showing BQJ2 version, so OTA denied all the same (cannot downgrade BL, smh). Ended up flashing Lineage 14.1 for now, until the OTA comes available.
Scoured the internet looking for the OTA, plenty of sites waiting for links so whoever uploads the OTA first, monetize your link, lol!

Hi,
I received today a notification to upgrade to B360 ( i still use the 4.1.3 emui B151), while my phone as Unlocked Bootloader and root!! I was thinking it was impossible to received this notification when the phone was rooted.
I have a few question yet:
1 If I upgrade to B360 should I loose the unlocked bootloader?
2 If i upgrade to B360 should I loose the root? When yes, how can I root my phone?
3 If i upgrade to B360, can I use Xposed Modules as with B151,
Thanks You for your Help!!!

You will only lose root and xpose. Theres a thread in here about the twrp for emui 5. Start from that if you want root again xpose included.

In my experience the only solution to this is to backup data, then if possible, use firmware updater (can downloadn in playstore) then download the b360 update with the Full ota-mf-pv tag. Flash it using dload method. About thw dload method search the honor 6x threads cause i dont use it. I did not encounter this problem when updating

Most likely you can somehow still get your device working.
Have you tried to download UPDATE.APP of the firmware you have/had. You could use huawei update extractor to get system, boot, cust, and recovery images from it and then flash them in fastboot.

I had installed build CHM-U01 V100R001C636B190 Emui 3.0.1 (Kitkat) installed earlier, Do i have to flash the same (Kitkat) version or I can flash the new firmware like lollipop or marshmellow ??

I think it's best to test first with same firmware, because I think it has better chance to work and if it works you can install TWRP --> take back up and then safely try to update.

If you are on everything stock KK update to MM with B530 use force update or local update. LP is not required in between.
Background: I got my Honor 8 today, model # FRD-L04 (important later), updated to EMUI 5.1 and Nougat via Updater on phone, and decided I wasn't satisfied with EMUI. So I rooted and that went smoothly, but when I tried to flash a custom ROM, I bricked pretty hard. Long story short, tried flashing multiple ROMs until I found one that worked. The ROM I'm on right now has EMUI 5.1 and build number FRD-C900B131, which is completely different from my original build (FRD-L04). Looked it up and turns out it's a variant of the H8. Unfortunately, I tried to update via Updater and there were no updates available, so I'm stuck with EMUI 4.1 and MM for now (not complaining, since at least it works again). I also tried flashing the rollback ROM for the L04, but I got an incompatibility error when I tried dload method. So now, question is how do I get back to my original stock FRD-L04 ROM, or how do I update to Nougat on this model version (C900B131)?
Thanks for the quick reply. Could you guide me through how I would approach this? I'm not sure which TWRP to use for my (incorrect) build. Do you think using the TWRP for my correct build (L04) should be okay? I'm on EMUI 4.1 also, I think the EMUI version matters too when choosing which TWRP to flash.

Awesome, thank you. I've installed it and it seems to be working fine with no issues. So I found the rollback package for my model (L04), so I should just install this through TWRP? And then install the Honor 8 upgrade firmware? Does that sound right?

Try just flash full firmware, no install rollback. Put zip to sdcard install over twrp and hope for the best, here can happen some unspecific problems. Firmware is right

Dude, i have the same problem, i´m stucked on android 6.0, my build number is C900B131 and it´s FRD-L04. Did you find an update for that exact same number? If so, could you please send it to me?
How about FRD-L09C900B131?
For few months I was using cutom kernel , then by mistake I wiped vendor,system through twrp , my phone was bricked . Installed the rom again through msm(10.3.1) . Locked the bootloader , then on I'm not getting any updates.
Downloaded 10.3.2 incremental update from oxygen updater and installed it. Still no updates through ota.
Any suggestion will be appreciated, thanks in advance.

I think you have to flash android 9 via edl through MSM tool first...then you can update. ..any version via ota...maybe it not works for you ..if you fail then i think in you phone you have to manually copy the india.img file to a partition i.e. [reserve] by this you can obtain update via ota...but make sure that you tries 1st method firstly by flashing android 9...then try it..i thought that it works for u..
No even after installing android 9.5.8 still not recieving the updates , but I can download the 10.0.1 and install it from local upgrage method .
The thing is if I install hydrogen version via msm I'm getting all the updates through ota . But not when I install global version or the eu version.
How to manually install india.img ?

Its not a big issue if u dont get ota updates automatically,you can use Oxygen updater app from playstore if you want any updates...its a good and authentic method but it depends on you if you like it or not.. &even if you copy india.img file using twrp to the location [reserve],there is no guarantee that if it works or not... because i even never tried this method but i prefer to go u with oxygen updater it downloads..the newer updates easily and even its gives you updates faster than mobile updater..try it ..and tell me if it works for you

I dont know if it works for you or not but i want to tell you that you can fix your broken ota by these steps..
★READ ALL STEPS FIRSTLY THEN START DOING IT★
[Step:1] flash Oxygen Os 9.5.8 via msm tool on both slots..
★How to flash Oxygen Os on both slots by msm tool..
-first you have to launch msm tool
-then verify by clicking on the verify option at the top-right side,it takes a few seconds..or more based on computer speed..
-after this you have to click on smt mode then click upgrade mode for atleast 2 or 3 times...
-now start flashing your device then you see the tool is flashing both slots partitions & as usual it takes approx 10 minutes to flash whole device
-after flashing start your device ..
[Step:2] Now you have to flash your device to Oxygen Os 10 on only slot-a
-flash it normally as uaual you do,this time you don't have to verify only click enum & then start because you don't need to flash both slots..
-after completing flashing process you should wait to restart you device then setup it & now you get your official Ota updates via system updates...
DONE..
★CAUTIONont do anything with (smt mode) either you loss you imei..!!!!!!
★Make sure you use upgrade mode to flash... because in smt mode it shouldn't works ★
[Tell me if it works for you because it works for me...]
Thanks
