Is there anyone who didn't received Android 9.0? My p20 dual sim is still stucked on Android 8.1. No news about an update even if I'm checking in settings, changing sim slot, changing language in hi care.! Nothing seems to find any update. Firmware finder finds updates, but I can't install it. My bootloader is still locked and I can't even root my phone.

You can try to update through hisuite on your PC.
I will try. I've never used pc suite

You just connect your phone to pc, enable HDB in phone settings and than click on update in hisuite on PC, that's it
Still nothing! Pc suite doesn't find any update for my phone.

You have a phone from a weird region SP5C900. Usually in Europe we have C432 region and the latest update is 9.0.0.280. Still waiting for 9.1.

Me and some other people got the update by switching the SIM-Card. One that never has been in your phone, at best with another provider. Sounds weird, but give it a try.
I've tried with another sim card from same provider. Didn't worked. I will buy a different provider sim card.

Canicula is right, your branding is weird, at worst scenerio you can rebrand your phone using funky Huawei(costs like 28$)
Than I will stay on android 8.1, since is not a big change. Does any of you know a good method to root this phone?

One member of this telegram group knows how to obtain bootloader code from Kirin 970 devices but you will need to disassemble your phone, you can ask him(don't PM him or they will ban you) https://t.me/joinchat/I0ghckXZ93L8U-PCP4-YxQ

You should get in touch with Huawei service in your area. You should have received an ugrade long time ago maybe there's an issue with your device. The P20 started to receive Android 9.1 this month already.
I'm having the same issue right now.
Current version is "EML-L29 8.1.0.168(C432)" and it claims that there's no system upgrade available.
I don't have any machine that is capable to run hisuite (or does it properly work with virtualbox).
Is there nowadays any other advice?

I think you also have a demo Huawei. That was the answer from my Huawei center! It doesn't work with modified HiSuite! And with Firmware Finder I'm afraid that I will hardbrick my device!

Hi all, I updated my phone months ago to sort out a problem in games, and its worked fine. However I never received the update to Android 7 or EMUI 5.0. I used firmware finder to update originally, around 6 months ago.
The update seemed to go fine, and the phone has worked great. Would the original update through firmware finder have somehow caused 'official' updates to have been turned off in some way?
Is there any way to rectify this, as I assume most people with the UK version of this phone already have Android 7 and EMUI 5.0 yeah?

If you have updater app in settings amd your phone model shows the correct details(not NRD TEST KEY) you will get update for sure.
If need help let us know we can help
Well this doesn't seem to be the case. From what I can gather most UK handsets should have received the update 3 or 4 months ago. So I think it's pretty safe to assume that my particular handset will not receive an OTA update.

Can do it manually by flashing the file manually with dload method
Thanks for the reply. I might be forced to doing it manually. But I'd really like to get to the bottom of this, what possible reason would there be for not receiving the update yet? It's been months!

Would you believe if i say i haven't got single update for more than on my 5C, full stock MM and was on the factory version for more than year then i gave up and did it myself. I tried all the method of upgrades and downgrades but none helped and even Huawei was not able to identify and push update manually after providing my IMEI. So not sure if you would be able to get the cause here
I struggle to understand why it's so difficult to get any information about when I can expect my phone to update to Oreo. I understood that it would be updateable out of the box when I bought it back in August, but I'm still waiting. I'm not overly bothered about the new features, but I need an Oreo device to properly test an app I have to update, according to Google Play.
Anyway, I was wondering. It's November the 2nd, Oreo has been about for a while now, I have a 2018 phone running 7.1. I've tried updating through the few legitimate means available but am still being told my device is up-to-date. Trawling the Internet for clues about who has or hasn't got this update, I've failed to find any definitive information. So I don't know if my phone is not updating when it should be, and I'm reluctant to do any hacking. Too many bad experiences there.
So the question is, is anyone else here with a Galaxy A8 (2018) still waiting? I'm on giffgaff, with an unbranded, unlocked (i.e. not network locked) phone.
Thanks,
Paul.

I'm not rooted, and I wanted to avoid using Odin or any unofficial means of updating. In the past I've just had too many headaches with those approaches. I guess I was really just wondering who else out there is waiting for this long overdue update.
took my phone half a month to see a new update

You can try SamFirm downloader, when there is an update available it will show up.
Odin is safe to use, you can flash official filmware through it without a problem.
It is possible to flash other country filmware with the Oreo update with the same bootloader that you've got.
For some countries there won't be any updates to Oreo, and they stay on Nougat 7.1 August patch.

Whats the other solution you have left?
With SamFirm you can see directly if there's an update or not, its that simple and can do no harm.

I don't see the problem, from SamFirm you get an official update just like OTG, the difference is that its updating right from your Phone with an OTG.
Basically you receive the same update.
But, "Suit yourself"

I mean the actual hardware not firmware.
Don't forget that I cannot see any device that is connected via OTG adapter at this moment.
Problem solved.
OTG is supported only with the original adapter.

I rollback to Android Q with the file that Oppo gives and it says now "No Sim Card" detected....
My model is CPH2025EU and their file is for the 2025PU... How can i fix that ? :-/
Oh dear, looks like this beta might not be worth trying yet.
But... well done to Oppo on offering it and to those of you willing to flash it.

The one who can find the solution must be "OPPO" themselves. Since nothing can be done with our device. No MSMDownloadTool nor OPPOdownloadtool (for consumer like us). Nothing can be done here. Guess they have a problem signing their package in the Kernel section.
Mine is Thai version. Dual SIM, CPH2025.
I tried to warn people in the comment section of ColorOS but sadly, I can't comment since my OPPO ID hasn't participated anything in their forum yet. So, I will let it go.
What about flashing a firmware through ADB ?
SIM card will no longer be read when you roll back in China version. The only solution is to install Android 11 Beta 1 again. I can now read the SIM card.
By the way, some people in the ColorOS community in China have similar symptoms.
Well in Beta 11, the phone detect my Sim Card, but i have no date mobile showing up even though i have my Operator setup appearing for MMS and 4G Data... Soits still a little problem.. i'm gonna flash Android Beta 11 then and hope for a second beta for Global version very soon...
EDIT : Beta 11 is really unusable ! The screen goes black and light up like crazy, multiples reboots, the phone gets warm as hell.... So no other choice than roll back to android Q, even if it means that i';ll not able tu use my Sim Card.... I can understand that a Beta may be buggy, but for this one, they really messed up !!
no sim card too

Hello guys. I have a mate 30 pro 4g EU version. LIO-L29
EMUI version - 11.0.0.188
I wanna downgrade to 10. Because i wanna install GMS. I have succes downgrade last 2 week on p40 pro.
Now i try first to downgrade first from Hisuite. I have install Hisuite_10.1.0.550, but i dont have the button switch to other version.
if i try to HiSuite Proxy, i recive error:
[15:48:06]: Connection To HISuite Proxy Failed....
[15:48:07]: Check If Your Firewall Is Blocking HISuite's Proxy Server
i have add the app to the firewall, i have stopped the firewall...same
Please help me to figure out.
Hey man. I'm in the same boat. Unfortunately, I don't think we are able to downgrade to a lower version. So, we are stuck without Google. The only negative of not having GMS is the delay or no notifications coming in at all. Hopefully apps will be updated to work well with HUAWEI notification eco system.
Hey bro. I have succed to make it
ช่วยบอกวิธีทำหน่อย thank you
Hey, can you share with us how you downgraded from 11.0.0.188. Thank you.
With hisuite proxy
Thanks. Which firmware version you downgraded to?
Well, after multiple attempts using different firmware versions, the update fails after it has reached the 100% download. Have no clue what else to do. Firewalls are off, antivirus off. Anybody?

BUT like I mentioned at a different thread. If downgrading to 10, Googlefier Wouldn't work. Also, I had lost USB connection and fast/super charge. But I think downgrading to a lower 11 should be ok. But I don't know. If you loose that, just upgrade again.

Hi i ubdated p40 11.0.0.207 (c432) now there is no option gor swith to other version at hisuite to downgrade tried older and newer version of hi suite any suggestions thanks
So, I downgraded my P40 Pro from the latest version to EMUI 10.1.0.121 to install Google Apps. Now I can't update the phone back to EMUI 11 using Config>System Update. I don't know that much about this stuff.
My computer is not recognizing my P40 Pro, it only charges the phone. Super Fast Charging is working.
My model is ELX-NX9 (ELX-N29 in phone's box). I used Hisuite and proxy to downgrade. Everything is working in the phone. I only did one thing that I guess I'm not proud of. I changed my region from C605 to C452 (I guess that's it. It's the European version, and I live in south America). I only did this because I couldn't find a C605 ROM in the website I used. Actually there was one with version 10.1.0.180 or something, and it couldn't install Google Apps.
Can anyone give me some light about it? I want to know if I can get it all working, now the only thing bothering me is the updates and the USB. And the "Custom Version" in the phone info that reads "CUSTC605D1"

Wow. Nice! It is not so easy to repair that. Maybe you will need a NM card if your phone doesn't recognize OTG.
You need a DLOAD firmware (ELS-N04_10.1.0.123(C605)_[ELS-N04_hw_la_R2])
(ELS-N29 10.1.0.123(C605))
