Saturday November 25th my Nokia 8 received Android Oreo OTA - I have therefore officially left the beta edition! The first 24 hours have been smooth and I have detected no issues. My carrier in Denmark is Telenor.
Its been rolling out worldwide since last week.
Is Oreo for C567 available through OTA? I have not used my Mate 9 in a while, I powered it up today thinking that Oreo is available for USA C567 variant, and the phone says I'm up to date? WTF??? I thought Huawei pushed the update already ...
The update was initially released for China. I think it might be hitting Europe at the moment? I'm guessing that the USA probably won't get it until after the holidays. I hope I'm wrong and it comes sooner, but the safe bet is too assume it won't arrive until January.
I've had 3 mate phones. On the 2, the update came the LAST day of the quarter (was told first quarter of xx year)
On the mate 8, was told the 1st quarter of the year...came 2 weeks into the 2nd quarter.
My guess, I remember them saying "in December", so I'd look for it between now, and the middle of January.
I know the whole area takes a holiday in October sometime..
Update is on hicloud anyway. They just need to approve everyone...
Though, latest for C567 is MHA-L29 8.0.0.321(C567), which is still beta. Official should be B36x.
I bought a second hand, originally EE sold. M5 10.8 with LTE a month ago.
Happy with the product except for two things
For some reason EE have blocked and removed the phone functionality, even though they left SMS messaging....
I have tried to update the tablet to Pie by
Tablet....Settings...Update
Hisuite connection and update through the application
Both the above via VPN to multiple European countries
No joy, so I was wondering, has ANYONE in the UK with an EE sourced M5 received an update or is this one of those highly irritating, blocked by vendor IMEI number problems that won't be resolved until EE extract the digit from whichever dank orifice it is currently stuck in......
Nothing on mine either, been checking for months
As an update, I reached out to Huawei UK support (08000 0886700), explained my situation and I was informed that, after I gave them all my tablet details, I should expect an update within the next 1-2 weeks..... One waits with bated breath...….
Never ever buy network devices. You only have yourself to blame.

Me too 4 weeks ago wonder if it was unlocked and network changed if it would update then?
Checked my MediaPad M5 on EE today and was very excited to see that an update was available. My excitement soon waned when i saw that it was just a security patch update and not an upgrade to Android and EMUI 9
Still it's the first security update since September 2018 and it's now up to August 2019, so at least it's had something come through.
CMR-AL09
Now on: 8.0.0.203 (C440)
You mean a downgrade to Pie. It's rubbish on the M5.

I'll be honest, not long after getting that update I got rid of the tablet and got a HP Envy Windows on Arm tablet instead :crying:
I bought it now and noticed that it shipped with September 2018 security patch just wandering what it ships for you when you bought it recently ?
It varies based on how long the unit has been on the shelf or in the distribution network for that retailer. It will update to the latest versions automatically, one at a time, or you can sideload the full OTA for the latest one and skip all the incremental updates.
I read Samsung will only be pushing (Google) security updates every 3 months for the S7, but the latest was March 1st, so when is a new security update to be expected? Anybody already received one? I live in Belgium in case location matters. Normally should have been June 1st if cycle is 3 months.
Second, can we only expect 1 more year of security updates from Samsung for the S7 or could it be longer? Places like Amazon.de (Germany) still sell new S7 models.
