Wrong link, which is for the TL10. Here is the correct one.
http://consumer.huawei.com/hk/mobile-phones/support/downloads/detail/ascend-mate7-hk.htm?id=32826
No any description
Let me have a test
Anyway, Thanks for posing it
After I tested the firmware I will tell you guys what it change
Installed working fine so far dont see any big changes only baseband changed.
Old firmware number: MT7-L09V100R001C00B120SP04
How to update this rom from sd card. I have to unzip first ? Where to put update package ?
Yes just unzip it and put the .APP file under the dload folder
Then update

Felt that battery drained faster
I updated last 2 days ago and felt that the battery drained faster ... So I go back to SP121
I updated today
I think there is no anything updated big
Just feel that it is smoother than B120
May be this update improve the experience for the customers
Also the B121 may not for my HK version
Coz some of the feature deleted
Sent from my HUAWEI MT7-L09 using XDA Free mobile app
No other feedback ?
I think I'll give gitve it a try because I'm losing cellular network frequently and I hope it may solve this issue
OK, I just updated : smooth and clean, as designed.
No issue. Good network coverage.
So far, the only thing I noticed is that it put me bak the old golden theme, changed my wallpaper on the lockscreen, and moved the location of the clock on the lock screen...

change log I have not. However, it has improved the reception. Where else I LTE, had only one or two bars, I now have two to three. Quick it was already like that. Compared to the 126 Battery consumption has improved in the 127 back.

I think he meant OTA .. the update was available for download earlier , but OTA came in yesterday.
I also installed it and i find its touch responsiveness to be pretty smooth compared to the old versions ...
Dr mentioned that this also has a better battery performance..
Well i found the OTA update on 2nd March itself, hence you are late for the party
The battery performance has improved drastically, No call drops as in LB1, Lag has reduced, google+ as default app .... better than any previous release. Last night my cell was on standby for 8 hours with only 1% power consumption. Hope this helps.

thank you so much guys let us please keep informing each other for all the additional changes that you notice.
Keyboard lag when charger connected is gone.
Low response issue in letter N and M on the keyboard is gone.
Ashoka Hindi Keybaord included.
Battery life is not that well on my end. Lets see.
improvement in wifi range
in a corner of my house where i could not connect to my wifi signal i am able to connect now.
no update found
Hi, there is a lag when i type or hit on the m or n button on the keypad. Otherwise also, when i hit near that area, the screen is unresponsive. Will an update fix that issue?

Did you update to the latest yet??

i got the update its only 9mb didnt find any difference
improved wifi reception
Guys I reconfirm here that the wifi reception is definitely better.
Besides another add on that I have noticed is that when I hit the wifi toggle in the notification tray a white pop up appears momentarily telling u about the available wifi signals and u can touch and choose whichever u want to connect to. Earlier u always had to go to the wifi settings to be able to do this.

Same here gone from 10f to 10g and now to 10i and will test this version over the weekend and see how it compares to 10f.
Managed to run 10g for a whole few hours before flashing this one so cannot really comment on it at all.
I jumped from v10E directly to V10i
I flashed the V10i and now i'm installing all my applications
Purplegrake root works well on the V10i
later i will give my feedback (i'm coming from V10G Global)
the first thing that i can say is: better signal reception and less overheating during charging!
Can this be flashed on all d855 16 gb models ?
So, I made several tweakability (you can see what time maybe)
firmware V10i
Clearly, a further small step forward with signal reception, overheating and lag
Do not overheat now, even (and this was a problem), while charging the battery keeping the phone turned on. In addition, install and set above all the applications from scratch (it took me about 2 hours) never exceeded 38 degrees (celsius) despite being almost two hours in a row with the display turned on at 80% brightness
I seem to lag just disappeared, even in the drawer is not known anything except immediately after turning on the device, also going to add the widget does not load them right, they are immediately available
After a little 'test, I did root (method PurpleDrake working) and I removed all the garbage LG pre-installed, I set the animations to x5, I set Art and finally I disabled HW overlays (always on the menu developer)
the terminal is fresh and perky
only bug was apparently the clock (am pm 24 hours), how much time needs LG to solve this problem?
Note: I came from the Global V10G version, before updating I formatted, then I have updated choosing the formatting method, and after the update I reformatted
Firmware recommended :good:

Been using all day so far and am extremely pleased with the results: no lag (or very minimal I do not notice) and a lot cooler when using (even whilst charging).
A vast improvement and probably the best so far.

Hey there,
I just received my Huawei Honor 6X last week, and i am writing this to post my opinion on this device so you guys can get a good idea about the phone, as there is only scarce information about the hands on experience and functioning of the device.
I bough the Grey coloured 3GB32Gb variant, from UAE's online shipping jadopado. At 899AED~240USD~15000Rs
https://india.jadopado.com/product/JM00329911/huawei-honor-6x-dual-sim-64gb-4g-lte-smartphone
And this seller is by far the best seller i have ever come across. So helpful that he was 24/7 available through whatsapp, double checked my phone for me, even cleared my doubts on EMUI, and created videos to guide me through EMUI:highfive:
As you can see only the 4GB/64Gb variant is shown as available, contact the seller and they will guide you to buy the 3gb variant.
I really like the phone, its sleek aluminium-clad and really slippery. The UI has a learning curve, after that its alright.
Model Number: BLN-AL10.
Disclaimer: i have only used the phone for 2 days.. These are just my opinions..
Camera:
Talking about the camera, its good #decent, not superbtastic!! Main camera is 12mp+2mp, while the front camera is 8mp
It takes good to great pictures.. I have attached some pictures..
Pretty decent in medium low light.
Autofocus in video shooting isn't spot on.
The bokeh effect(dual camera) is good, but i dont think we'll use it often.
Performance
Performance is good, will be better in EMUI 5 i hope so..
Battery
The battery has been great so far, mainly due to huawei's excellent software which handles battery management. And there is ultra power saving mode.. I'm getting around 6 hours sot as of now, will have to use for a week or two to get the correct idea.
Call Quality
Call quality has been good so far.. Using BSNL and Jio..
And in Reliance Jio (india) i am facing network signal being lost and other issues, i think its mainly due to Jio's fault, as most of my other friends also has it..
LTE CAT 6 option for faster connectivity
It has VoLTE optionin settings, but still have problems in calling from stock dialer (JIO- India), it'll get fixed through an update i hope so.. I have emailed Huawei about this issue.
Fingerprint
Finger scanner is spot on.
Speaker
Speaker is loud, but its only a single down firing one. And while watching videos we can easily block the speakers accidentally when cupping the phone.
Display
Display is great, quality is good But the viewing angles are not that good, but its not at all noticeable..
Benchmarks: (3GB/32GB version)

Honor 6x User Here Too
Me as well, is satisfied with it. Requested it from a friend who bought it from China. I got the 4GB / 64GB variant on gold color.
For it's price, what more could you ask for? I love it's performance, camera, GPS.
the only downfall i can say is it's speaker. it's only coming out from the bottom right side. but no problem with headphones.
you say you're having problem with signal after restarting it. Though i don't have that kind of problem. I did not make any benchmark yet, maybe in the future.
this might be my phone for the next 2years. It will not be outdated.
heard there would be updates to Nougat on this model. hopeful! ^_^

My first observations after upgrade:
- system is smooth and fast, but the fact is that it was such before upgrade as well;
- smart battery saving leave you less options as before; you can't use it with screen off time adjustment any more; my impression is that with no battery saving you achieve less uptime than before and with smart battery the same as before but with more restrictions;
- overall color specter moved toward blue and a lot of white; light color letters on white background are sometimes difficult to read;
- safetynet (indicator of secure applications like Android Pay and Pokemon) fails wit the last upgrade; it passed with MM and first N upgrade 336;
- still no trace of wifi calling.
Camera is subject to more deep and demanding analyze which may follow latter.
Overall I'll be glad to get safetynet back and wifi calling sometimes soon.

other guy had al10, he did what i did, u have to be on the latest software, and then register on hicare
I also upgraded to 5.0 and then I did a factory reset to set all from the beginning...It seems to me that battery runs out a bit faster (first thoughts) and I agree with all written before this post....
I fell in love with new quick tools panel quickly, so dont feel about downgrading so far))
I will wait till our russian coleagues make up a clean EMUI 5.0 (without bloat and perhaps with some customizations) as they did for 4.1 (author: greatslon at 4pda)
Or maybe our honor devs will give us some cure in new builds...
Got a new upgrade yesterday, the version B368.
This time the change log is in Chinese so I have no idea what it is about. At least it still works fine, no complain so far

It says something like:
This update optimizes the system and stability and makes the phone run more smooth. It repairs Taobao app text dialog box on order to prevent blocking input method. It also repairs the problem that call recording can’t add the specific contact. Further, the problems that outgoing call can’t be placed and phone can’t be connected to WIFI are fixed as well. Removed error that Talkback can’t be used. Fixed HuaweiShare autolaunch after WIFI download rate is reduced. Fixed issues with 123006?? and banking (shopping??) apps like Taobao. Power consumption is optimized in order to extend battery life. Screen brightness parameters optimization.
The translate is result of mutual efforts of me and GoogleTranslate and it is far from perfect.
My first impressions after update:
The system is stable and ready for the transition from beta to the production version. It is responsive, smooth and fast. No substantial deficiencies could be detected. There are still some glitches that should be improved though:
1. In order to make the outlook white as a snow (combined with sea blue) the producer made some application text hard to read (white on the bright)
2. Using the power saving mode gives you insane 6 hours of SOT. But the mode fixes screen on when passive to 30 secs time and it can't be adjusted. What could be really annoying in some situations. I would have easily sacrificed 1 hour of SOT if I had option to turn off the screen manually.
3. SafetyNet (connected with payment and other safety apps) fails after every upgrade. Thankfully so far I had it back in a few days and I hope that it will happen this time too. I think that the failure is connected to beta status of the upgrade: Google might consider upgrade as a test version of the system (safe applications don't work on the rooted phone, custom recovery, unlocked bootloader or test versions of the system). I don't understand the mechanism on which the functionality suddenly returns: is it by Huawei's intervention, Google app upgrade or simply recognizing the upgrade as real, not test version.
Finally, there is an improved custom ROM for AL10 and AL00 (HRT-Kangvip) if someone with rooted phone wanna try: http://club.huawei.com/thread-11821416-1-1.html (use GoogleTranslate).

I am in China, I already got 3 updates since I bought it (3 weeks ago).
That's why I can't really compare with marshmallow as I didn't use it much.
I just found out they still didn't fix the bug when we use the fingerprint to slide photos in the gallery. It works but it's not as smooth as before.
Guys I'm considering buying Honor 8 and I want to know how long you've been using this phone and have you experienced any lags/crashes/slow-downs on stock firmware during this time? Thanks!
Buy the Honor 8 Pro instead as you will get Oreo guaranteed. I have had the 8 for 13 months now and didn't like Nougat till B394 update due to the **** battery life. I stuck to MM till B394 where on heavy usage too I could easily get 5 hours of screen on time.
There hasn't been any noticeable slowdown or such. The phone still runs smoothly.

Thanks. Have you used Honor/Huawei phones before and how have they held up over time? I have a 5X that was slow and laggy on stock (EMUI 4 sucks) and didn't improve much even with custom roms (all Nougat roms become unusable after few weeks, CM13 is better but hangs randomly).
I bought this phone last December. I've taken every update and I have yet to be the least bit disappointed in this phone. It has been a fantastic device. I would but it again in a heartbeat for the right price.

Good to know! Are you on stock?
The Honor 8 has been great since I bought it in September 2016. the battery took a hit with 7.0 though. I feel its time to move on, but i can't find anything to replace it TBH. I've got a mate 10 Pro which is nice, but it doesn't feel like spending £700 will make THAT much of a different experience to the H8.
It is a really good device. From February the antutu benchmark has dropped a lot but the performance is exactly the same as always, no lags with max graphics on hard to run 3d games. Has held up pretty well.

Why has the benchmark score dropped?

I guess it happens with every phone. The performance in use hasn't dropped at all however, so it is just fine.

Don't buy anything Huawei or honor phone because the are so bat at support and update , if I were you I would buy a OnePlus 3T or a galaxy s7/edge
or any other phone because they are cheaper and better than the honor 8 and and any Huawei/honor phones.

Whoa that's pretty bad. I feel sorry for you. Could it be that your battery has gone bad? Still not acceptable.
By the way, is gyroscope working for you guys?

Cool! How long have you had the phone and are you taking any battery-saving measures?
