i have gr5 2017 bll-l21 and i m using android 7.0 and i want to update to 8.0 oreo
i never get an update about oreo
And you'll never get it unless you rebrand it to Indian/Chinese variant because it has been released only for these two regions.
To manually update to Oreo, you'll need first of all an unlocked bootloader; do you have it?

You need open bootloader also for debranding to indian variant BLN-L22. Key for open bootloader is since summer 2018 only avallible by paying for. Not very expensive. But concider. I habe debrandet from europe to indian and it was not so out of problems, as I saw it before. And I did not find anybody, who got OREO after debranding by OTA.

You'll need to rely on services like DC Phoenix, FunkyHuawei, ecc. - once done so, you'll be able to unofficially flash literally anything

Hello Fellow Members,
I have bought this phone 2 months back from Abu Dhabi when I was there for vacations. The phone variant as mentioned above is Frd-L09C185. Now I am back in India (Mumbai). I am a bit confused with the OTA updates part. My query is now that I am here will I get the OTA meant for Indian Variant or the EU Variant ( I guess that's what L09 belongs to). Secondly if me suppose to receive the updates for the European Variant will I receive them here in India. I want my phone to be updated to the latest version. My current version is FRD-L09c185B102 where is guess B102 is the os version. Request all you experienced guys to please help clear my query. Thanks in advance.

I think its middle east variant. You won't get Indian version update. As India has FRD-02.
So is there no way to update phone over OTA? I don't wanna do it manually as I don't wanna take a risk of damaging it. I am currently on B102 OS version and when I try to update it I am told there are no updates available. So if my phone is from middle east can't it be updated in India?

You will receive the Nougat update. But it will take more months to reach you are you are in Middle East version (Less prioritized)

Seems that your region got the Bet update version today.
If you are enrolled in Beta, you would have got it - http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1278/g104/v68848/f1/full/update.zip
You can try with Charles trick to update this one.

ok. Did you receive this update after coming down to India or while you were in Abu Dhabi?
I had received this update - B130 immediately after the purchase in Dubai in Dec 2016 and after that havent received any update.
Try this don´t worry
Tried the Charles app method.. Quite a few times. The update was just 1.39 GB not the 2.2 gb because of which The update failed and dint try there after. Guess will now have to wait for the official push(sigh). I have no issues with EMUI 4.1 currently and in fact quite happy with it. Just bcos of the eagerness to upgrade don't want to brick the phone, especially since Huawei doesn't have international warranty policy.
Is vote support extended by Huawei to honor 8 FRD-L09 model? I am in India and would love to have the volte feature. As of now on LTE is available. Had read somewhere that VOLTE would be soon provided via software update. Also heard that Indian variant FRD-02 has received the VOLTE support

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.

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
Hello guys,
I have mate 9 C636 B362 oreo.
The problem is am now living in europe
Which makes my phone unable to get updates through default system update and very slow to updates to go through firmwarefinder
My question is can i rebrand the mate 9 while I am already on Oreo to c432
Thanks

There is an easier and much safer way to update if you still have a SIM card of the country you purchased the phone from. It doesn't even have to be active anymore. Just insert it and reboot, then connect to wifi and all the updates will pop up.
Hope that helps

I don't think it matters. Bought a USA C567 for a friend and he is using it in Europe with European sim and he got the C567 Oreo before me. I still didn't get mine. I believe all firmwares are eventually approved for all imei's in a certain model, like model L29. You can check old FF's on the FF app for older firmware and you will see it is approved for almost every region. At least my USA phone is...

Believe it or not but it matters! Maybe your friend activated the C567 phone with a European SIM card and that's why he receives updates.
I bought a C636 phone in Cambodia and am constantly traveling around South East Asia. I never receive updates of any kind but the moment I insert a Cambodian SIM card the updates pop up.

Where do you get "oeminfo.bin"? There's a thread with a collection of them but all for Nougat... If the phone is currently on Oreo and want to rebrand staying on Oreo... I can use those Nougat oeminfos?

Well, if I had read it more carefully I would've said you need to downgrade to Nougat.
But it's done if you follow the instructions.
Sorry for the misinformation.
Edit: Though, with an oeminfo.bin from Oreo you should be able to rebrand straight to Oreo.
You could always ask mankindtw, he should know.

Hi all,
I have an MHA-L29 and it is currently running 8.0.0.360(C567). The security update is dated January 2018.
My company requires that my phone not have a security patch more than 90 days old. Is there a ROM compatible with MHA-L29 that has a newer security patch? What is the newest security patch available in any MHA-L29 ROM from Huawei, does anyone know?
And how likely am I to be able to install it? This is a retail US model phone, so far as I know.

It's better to buy other phone
Your requirement is too hard to satisfy.
You have US region and latest version is 8.0.0.360.
Even if Huawei will post new ROM need 2-3 weeks more to test and approve.
Additionally Mate 9 released at November 2016. 15 months ago. No guarantee that 8.0.0.360 is not last...
Ok. There are other regions with newer security patch, like C636. But you have to rebrand your device (unlock bootloader, install custom recovery, install patched recovery) - so beat your security. Sure, it is temporary, but in advance you have to rebrand back if region C636 will not post next ROM in 90 days...
As I know, region C00 (China) has latest security patch and regularly updates. Rebrand to C00 if you are not confusing by hieroglyphs and specific memory manager (it is very aggressive to background apps)
P.s. to rebrand when using Oreo you have to rollback on Nougat's ROM, then rebrand using oeminfo in HwOta, then upgrade to Oreo.
This way cause oeminfos from Oreo are different with Nougat's files.
Gotcha. Thanks!
I was afraid of that. I'm OK with Android and Linux in general, but I don't want to do a lot of hard, risky work over and over again just to keep my phone running. Company is recommending Google Pixel 2 or iPhone. Not exciting, but I'm getting too old and lazy to hack my Android devices once a month.
Thanks for your help!

Looking at LG track record, I am not sure they will give us update by June end. But hope is high
Thought update is there finally, anyway uodate will show up first with lg bridge pc app
LG G8 is soon going to be launched in India..maybe that's y they are not releasing pie in India yet for G7.
HK, TWN, SEA even Australia (EAW) versions received their respective PIE beta builds..while IND version still don't have a beta build..
Maybe after launch of G8 in India in July or August, we may hopefully receive the pie..(sigh)

i've got g710 emw unlocked bootloader running pie with root. as of now to get root you have to unlock boot loader. search on the web on how to unlock bootloader unofficially for lg g7... lg gonna do it for eu models..ie g710em only
once thats done you can flash EU open version of pie or keep oreo and get root with magisk. there are links to the kdz's boot images and guides on how to. fairly straight forward. root your phone ,debloat it ,watch it fly.
