NXT-L29 no Nougat yet

Hi there
I am still on build NXT - L29C636B193 with June secuirity patch.
I have the dual SIM L29 4gb gold variant. I am in the UK.
Still waiting for Nougat. From reading around it seems that almost everyone has already recieved the official OTA...
I have also seen people manually flashing the OTA but I am worried I may lose my warranty and make certain apps like Android Pay unavailable.
All advice is appreciated
Thanks:laugh:

If you want to have warranty, stay at stock.
There is a major difference between nougat and mm (in look and performance for me). I dont need my warranty because - 1) ive bought it in china , 2) what does warranty cover? if i crash screen - warranty is worthless, if i crash software - i can fix it by myself - so its useless...
I ve swaped soft for european L29C432B320 from DL-00 and i dont care about OTA or some****.
Just flashed, rooted and using as always. For me root is necessary, so warratny is useless anyway.
The only thing is that if something bricks your phone like e.g. melting in pocket (vide SGS Note7 ) there is nothing you can do...
So - for me - just manually flashed nougat and root it and its ok.

There is a Upate ,but only rollout in Asia,not for Asia Phones in Europe.
Here is the Update,its a German Site
http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/huawei-mate-8-nougat-nxt-l29c636b521-full-asien.810037/

I was with NXT-L29C432B192 and on 17.01.2017 receive OTA (B560) update via HiCare.

So can I do this without losing warranty or rooting?
Because I want things like Android Pay to still be intact.
Thanks

Are you in Europe as well?
Because I want to know if my imported Huawei Mate 8 will receive an official OTA from Huawei...
Thanks

I receive the Ota only to the converted C432.
On original C636 no Ota Updates

Can I load the latest update onto the device so that the system update menu will recognise the update?
Maybe use dload or somrthing?
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Hi there
When I contacted the European chat helper in the Hi care app, they said that my model the NXT - L29 will not get OTA updates while i am not in Southeast Asia?
I don't know if this true as it sounds bizarre, most devices are still updated when not in their home land.
What model number is yours?
Thanks

checksum error
Hi there,
the update appears and it starts to download, but most of the time, I get a checksum error. Only 2 times (out of perhaps 8 downloads) it downloaded properly, so far. The device restarted and got stuck at the "Your device got unlocked and can't be trusted." and "The device is now booting" prompt. I let it rest for more than 3 hours, but nothing happened.
So: none of the categories in the poll apply to me: I seem to get the update, but cannot install it.

Are you also on the L29?
Which country are you in?
Did you root or unlock the bootloader?

I finally figured what was wrong: I had a bad (as in not accepted by the system) update in the dload folder of the sdcard. Thus even after flashing TWRP via adb or the stock firmware upgrade, that was tried and denied, first.
Once I removed that folder, I could successfully install TWRP and the latest CM/Lineage build (alpha-4).
To actually answer your questions: Yes, CH, and yes, bootloader unlocked.

Hi there
On the firmware downloader app, a new update has been launched but it is B330? Emui 4.1?
Take a look below

I had manually uppdated to B521 and tried to update to B563 trough the Firmware Finder without success.
Then I downgraded to B193, tried update to B563 and failed.
Updated to B211 then and did factory reset. After restart I got new firmware showing in system update in settings.
So I´m guessing it´s official OTA update as I didn´t update through Firmware Finder.

immediately upon reboot it says, "Verifying system update" gets about 50% of the way with the progress bar, then restarts and I get the failed update message.
Apparently Sony has had this issue in the past and laid blame at the feet of Google's update servers.
Maybe it has something to do with the firmware on my phone. Bought it off eBay last year and it has a Myanmar ROM. Never had an update fail before though. It's not rooted or bootloader unlocked or anything.
EDIT: Gave up on the OTA, never got it to work and instead updated mine by using Androxyde's Flashtool.

Any OFFICIAL OTA for Honor 6x BLN-L24 after B360?

I have problems with the updates, my device only stays in B360 and I can not update from Firmware Finder :crying:

You will have to use dload.
BLN-L24C567B366 is the current version I can see on FF site.

Is correcto, but I can't, because I have already followed the steps in firmware finder but I get an error when analyzing the downloaded package.

That's true

Seems to be rolling out fast -- My fresh-out-of-the-box-yesterday 6x got a B365 notification last night. Over wifi, btw (still haven't thrown a SIM card into it yet). I suppose I'll let it update at some point soon -- what could go wrong ?

to place the sim card implies a problem with the updates?

Nope, didn't mean that at all. Was just saying that that to show that it has nothing to do with carriers (which I guess we know) - it's coming pure OTA via the internet.

But still a sim card may be needed to register the IMEI on network to get the OTA. It may get without sim but i have not received any till date on any of the honor phones and ota shows after couple of minutes of sim registration

Just saw an update notification this morning, its installing now. I got mine right before thanksgiving (and installed an update then too).
I'm actually very pleased with this phone and the firmware. They let you uninstall all the 3rd party crapware and most everything else (google crapware) can be mostly disabled.
I just wish I had the lineageos email program, I don't like the honor one as much.

Mainly security updates.

this cell phone can be very good game, the consumption of ram is very little so it has good autonomy

Interestingly, my wife's 6x, which she has been using on mobile network since early November, is still sitting at B360. So far, there's no update available. Strange...

OTAs are pushed in phases, sometimes it takes a long time for an update to arrive

What G7 do you have?

G710EM
European model.

at least we get updates

+1

All European models (G710EM) should be updated to December update? Mine is on November update V10p-222-01 and no updates appears with OTA neither LG Bridge. Should I be worried? Maybe is better to install other ROM?

yep received it too in Germany.
I removed root via magisk app, after that i got a "no command" boot loop. (thought my unpatched image was gone, found it later (nooooo).
if anyone faces this problem, just hit the power button fast and several times, phone shuts down, push and hold volume up until u see download mode.
now obtain your kdz file i used the new full rom.
my version before flash v10p, after flash v10q.
important is to select upgrade @Lgflash, to keep your stuff.
phone reboots and upgrade will be done after boot!

Actually I put a warning in the Magisk tred about that.
U can't uninstall root with magisk.. It will always do that. U have to manually flash unpached

I have lg g6 tmobile version i have 1/1/2019 sec. Update !

Even Samsung manage to push every month a security update. This is sad.

I installed the G710EM10p_00_OPEN_EU_OP_1203.kdz (German region with November patch) but not I'm not receiving the OTA for the December patch update. If I manually install the G710EM10q_00_OPEN_EU_OP_1219.kdz with the LGUP tool can I mantain all the data/programs (like an OTA)?

If you do not receive ota it mean you flashed other region to you original firmware. You can update with LG UP as long you update with the same region (german for you). Any other region would wipe all data like factory reset.

I did this procedure with version 10p and also version 10q after that. I stopped receiving OTA and LG Bridge updates (Bridge tries to download them but fails to actually install them), so now I just update via LGUP whenever there is a new patch. All my data/apps are fine, no need to restore from backups. My guess is that since my phone was originally branded, my imei is still tied to that, so now I can't use automatic updates any more. Not a huge problem, the LGUP procedure is easy and fast.

Anything new on 10q? Or just security patch?

February 2019 Security Update

Reply if you notice any differences. So far I noticed none but I think that the phone is a bit smoother.

Man, it's just a security update, it doesn't do anything more than just a few patches to Linux kernel.

It's not the way HMD does updates. They always make standalone updates for features + bug fixes and security updates. I think there might even be some policy about it.

Anybody got weird statusbar padding after this update?

Wait there's a february update? Mine still says october and it doesn't find any new updates.

You can get the ota packages from the dedicated thread here and flash them with stock recovery.
Be very careful about your build model, cross compatibility isn't 100% guaranteed as far as I know.
Also the otas are progressive, which means you have to flash each one in order starting from your build number to get to the latest one, you can't just flash the latest one. Stock recovery should prevent you from doing harm.
The fact that your phone finds no update makes me believe you don't have TA-1046 build model.
Edit: in the ota thread's OP says it has been tester for all 3 model variants.

My phone is TA-1046. I got latest OTA by flashing OTA builds all the way december to --> january and then phone downloaded febryary automatically. Maybe there was something wrong with update servers or something.

NFC has been working around of 1 week after the update, and then stopped
