Update through HiCare?

Hello, so I'm currently waiting for the Nougat update to arrive on my Honor 8 (L09) but I noticed that I can upgrade with HiCare, so is this recommended or will it wipe my device? And should I use HiCare or just wait for the OTA in the updater app?

Hi! I did the update to EMUI b360 via the Hicare app on my L09 honor 8 and it went just fine. Lot of people here did the same without issues. It does not wipe the phone, but I still recommend you to do a backup before proceeding.
EMUI 5 works flawlessly, I really like it.
For your information, my phone is *not* rooted. I don't know what happens with updates when the phone is rooted

Wait is B360 the Beta? And not the final version? Because I don't want to run beta software on my phone :/

Sorry for being a total noob at this, but what do you mean with Final Beta? Is this still Beta software? Where battery optimization isn't that good etc. Or is it the one they are rolling out using the update app for some?

It is the final version it's not that "pre-final" which is the most bs term someone could come up with.

It's not final. p9 got b361 and even that is not final version. So don't smartass things you didn't check.

https://community.hihonor.com/docs/DOC-1835 Yea, like I'm totally smartassing thing I didn't check. Last time I checked the P9 and Honor 8 are different devices.

"Final beta" means exactly what it says on the tin. It's the least beta version. The next version will be the final release. Assuming that the report is correct.

Who said anything about final beta?

There may be a bug regarding safetynet so that Android Pay and other services might be affected. Source: https://club-us.hihonor.com/honor8....google-pay-nor-safety-checker-both-fail-.1577
Hope someone can confirm it here. So, be patient for those who haven't gotten the rollout. Let bugs resolved first.

WTF is a 'final beta'?? A beta is a beta. A final is a final. Let's not muddy the waters chaps...
B360 is the latest stable release that's being pushed to everyone. It's not a beta!
The reason that some have it and some don't is because they can't push it to everyone at the same time, they do it in waves depending on your model number, location and IMEI. If you don't have it yet just chill, it's on its way. It was due for February release anyway so think yourself lucky that you might be able to get it a little earlier if you do, if not you'll be getting it on time as expected.

I can get 9.1 working with the AL00 software but I really don't want to. I'd prefer the L29 OTA, c'mon Huawei

AL00 probably China Version
L29 was International Version,
And it is not the Software version, hence if u were in AL00, u wont get L29 update, unless u port it in.

I believed China Version will get the update first, even oldest version of devices as well, so no doubt on it. Just can't wait when the newly EMUI will online for my version.

Yes. In most cases LG will release OTA to L/S/K at almost the same time. But sometimes may not and some OTA will be skipped. So the next officially released OTA for SKT may be 11o or 11q or even 20.

Hoping with fingers crossed Sir, I have a problem with my weather animation on lock screen. It's not working. It doesn't show any animation even if it's currently raining. I tried doing a factory reset but no luck, It's still not working. I tried turning on my location for an hour to observe but still, no animation. I have no problem with it on my 1st V50 unit with V500N11o version. My brand new unit came with V500N11m and now updated to 11q but still, it doesn't seem to work fine. I don't know how to flash roms and I'm too even learn and try it coz I might mess it up. Is there any other way or setting or anything that you now that causes it not to work fine? Thank you sir!

First be sure to download weather app from software updates app. Then enable it in customize lock screen.
You should try to factory flash with LG Bridge, recovery error mode. Did you disabled some apps?

Pay attention that lg bridge does not download the firmware from the first try. Try 3-4 times by selecting recovery error, not check for updates.
