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

Anyone know when to expect update on US Honor 8 running EMUI 5, Android 7, Build FRD-L04C567B360 ?
Since this phone is used as BYOD for work, I cannot root. I did try the Huawei Firmware Finder, but it's kinda known not work with EMUI 5...I tried anyway.
Also tried to update via HiSuite on my PeeCee and no luck there.
Is Huawei just not ready to release any updates?
B360 is the latest version for the US. There's nothing to update.
Updates for L04 and L14 are vaporware
B385 I suspect will be released this or next month..
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.
Hello can someone tell me how to update my indian unit of Honor 8 to oreo in order to flash latest open Kirin builds ?
Hello experts,
I own a huawei honor 8 , { FRD-L09C185B403 }
I'm still on the EMUI 5.0.4 version, android 7.0.0.
I haven't received any updates since October 2018!.. Most honor devices have gotten the Oreo update and mine shows as no update! I purchased this phone from middle east. I live in India right now. i searched the internet and could not understand a word. i haven't rooted the phone.
I don't wanna brick my phone but i want the Oreo update, so at least I an use VoLTE instead of regular 4G.
Please guide me how to do this!
I'm a complete NOOB and your help is really appreciated!!!!:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Go to Settings - About phone - System software update - Check for updates.
It should be at least EMUI 8.0 and Android 8.0.
Hi- I have a new P30 ELE-L04 with EMUI 9.1 as a replacement for one with a cracked screen. I would like to upgrade it to EMUI 11. Does anyone know where I can get the stock ROM?
I've attached the versions It needs.
Thanks.
Hi per above this P30 ELE-L04 has C212 region - Iusacell/Nextel fw installed as a default with EMUI 9.1
I realized recently the Huawei P30 C212 means Mexico. I'm in the US.
Guess I'm wondering the easiest way or if it's even possible to upgrade this C212 phone to EMUI 11. In the US it won't update beyond EMUI 9.1. Says its at the latest version.
I've got another P30 phone with EMUI 11, it's region is C792 Canada.
