Lastest Android for Honor 8 (Recommend Suggestion) - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I own an Honor 8, model FRD-L09C185 with the latest official update is EMUI 5.0.4 with Android 7.0
Now, I want to use aftermarket rom - os to get the latest available Android update with stable performance, which rom - os do you suggest for install (flash) on Honor 8 FRD-L09C185, preferably Android 8+
Thanks in advance

If you just want to be with Oreo, you can first download the last firmware for FRD-L09 at FirmwareFinder website. It's 3 files and you can flash them with HuRUpdater zip using TWRP 3.1.1-1 (openkirin edition I think)

To get any 8+ ROM to work you need EMUI8 firmware base. Maybe you are interested in rebranding your device, because there is no EMUI8 for C185 available. You can rebrand to C432, for example. But I don't know much about it and I suggest you do your own research before. Guides to this are available in guides section.
Otherwise you can flash any Android 7 ROM.

EMUI 8.1 For Honor 6x

I was wondering if there is an emui 8.1 update for our device. Huawei said honor 6x will be updated to emui 8 so i am guessing they will go all the way. From what I can tell, 8.1 brings redesigned gallery, camera and (maybe) face unlock. I have rebranded to BLN-AL20 and in firmware finder there is no update, so just wondering.
There's already an official Oreo flashable firmware on xda (base version 8.0, not 8.1), but the procedure is a little time-consuming and involves rebranding your phone to a BLN-L22.
The firmware is still beta though, and is meant to be used only by official beta testers. Also, if I'm not wrong, it should be the India target version. Still universally usable as you can change your language but probably not meant for your region (unless you live in India).
I personally am using it and it is really stable, but not perfect.
There's the link for rebranding.
And here's the rom.

Is it possible yet to install a custom ROM on an Honor 20 Lite (LRA-AL00)

I am not a developer but an Android phone user. I have an Honor 20 Lite (LRA-AL00) with Android 9, EMUI 9.1.1 which I wish to remove and replace with a suitable custom ROM. Is this possible? If so, I will appreciate guidance on this. Thank you.
I have a similar question because I bought the chinese Honor 20i and to unlock it's bootloader I had it converted to Honor 10i global version by https://ministryofsolutions.com/ Now the phone is running EMUI 9.1 and I wonder if SuperSU can be flashed on the current EMUI with TWRP or if Lineage OS, Resurrection Remix or any other custom ROM would work on this phone model. Waiting for answers. Please and thank you in advance.

I can't update from EMUI 5.0 to EMUI 8.0

Hey guys,
I sometimes think that my Honor 8 (FRD-L09) is the only one on the planet that didn't receive an update to Android 8.0 (Oreo). It said on the updates that it's the latest version. Is there a way to update it? I don't want to use something in official or that may void warranty.
P.S: Reply if you know how (NOT Honor 8 LITE or PRO)
It seems that you have Frd L09 c185 like me so you are not alone
Oreo for some reasons hasn't released for c185 model so you have to change your variant which needs open bootloader and twrp

Stock Firmware download

Hi everybody, I'm trying to upgrade to EMUI8 from EMUI5. Since all the downloads from update.hicloud.com are broken, I was looking for the stock ROM files. The only thing I could find was https://androidhost.ru/1jg5.
Does this look legit? Does anybody know another location for a download of the stock ROM files?
Thank you!
It seems this firmware isn't installable without the first update to Oreo. Does anybody happen to have a link to BLN-L22HNC675CUSTC675D1B510 (8.0.0.510) please?
have a look there, I put some firmware lately:
