Hi everyone, how can I update from my currently build NBD90M to the last one NBD90X? (On Android 7 release in August I agreed to beta program and then deleted my registration)
Thankss
Wouldn't be in a hurry, my phone can only make emergency calls, nit sure if this is the reason it it happened after I updated the software.
You should've gotten an OTA, but you can also download the official OTA from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/ota
My connectivity issue has been resolved, Meteor blocked my phone as I made one or two "long duration calls" from Morocco to Ireland, after which I reverted back to a Meditel sim until I left Morocco, it took a week to resolve the issue online as I could only make emergency calls, what a shower of twats letting me in the lurch like that, I pay by direct debit monthly and have never defaulted with a payment, shower of muppets.
Download the OTA package referenced above.
The follow the pinned forum post on how to apply a full OTA package...
Then load the package you downloaded.
I was in the same boat as you and thats what I did... no lost data or anything.
I can't find the pinned forum sorry or not sure is the right one, can you post the link please?
I can also provide a data point. I enrolled in the beta program initially when Nougat was announced, so that I could get the stable version of 7.0 quicker before the OTA was released via my carrier (T-Mobile). Then after I got the software update notification for build NRD90U and installed it, I unenrolled from the beta program. But I didn't get any OTA for build NBD90X, because I guess it's still 7.0.
I wanted NBD90X though because that's one of the build numbers for 6P that's listed as working to get the Google Assistant on my phone (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/guide-how-to-enable-google-assistant-t3477879). So I downloaded the OTA build NBD90X from the google developer website as mentioned above, and sideloaded it using ADB. It worked well for me and didn't wipe my user data or anything. Although I did lose data when I had to unlock the bootloader as part of getting the Google Assistant though .

Anybody in the same boat as me and not receive the latest firmware via OTA update yet?
I hadn't received it either. I checked for it before I rooted and just decided to flash the firmware from google's site since the unlock would wipe the data anyway.
No update here, either. It usually takes google weeks to propagate these updates so I wouldn't worry about it. Besides, the update was minimal and didn't include any code fixes from google anyway, only a few items from the AOSP project.
Just for the purpose of tracking the rolling out process in the north America region, let's try collecting some date information when you receive the rollout. The process of this upgrade could become a helpful guideline for future upgrade events in the region! Models L04 and L14 might be involved. Let's also comment on your state, wireless service provider, if you are in the beta group and when you got the phone to see if anything is correlated.

Thank you!
Now, on the official Honor_USA social account, https://twitter.com/Honor_USA, N is coming on Feb 11th. Period.
Update: from Rox_honor, it's officially released on Feb 10th in the US. Some people have had this update already.
To force the update, you can check the method posted on Page 2, #16: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70992090&postcount=16.
Reserve for updating statistics, if possible. Again, the Google Spreadsheet to fill out is https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XULbGwxpO0s_RH9EzbvWjLP48MNCz7vkolbT0TiMf7s/edit?usp=sharing
Feel free to add more columns if you think they are helpful.
So far it seems that only T-Mobile users are getting the update. Just tried to update my Mom's phone, we are on Cricket (AT&T) and there was no update for her. Tried putting it on airplane and restarting but still nothing. I'll probably try again tomorrow.

There is one entry reporting received the update while on Straight Talk. We need to have more data in order to figure out the rollout sequence. GOOD LUCK!
i purchased the Unlocked Honor 8 from US (amazon). But I'm an indian user and I'm using it with an indian carrier . will i get the update as the other north american devices or do i have to wait longer
Did not get the update (FRD - L04)
But I forgot whether or not the L04 is international or US (i live in the US though)
yeah i havent gotten it either still says no updates available
I haven't received the update either on L04. I read on the other thread that it rolls out in small batches.
Edit: Here's the post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70964112&postcount=392
Nothing on L04 AT&T yet. Purchased from NewEgg and first activated in December.
Got it 3 weeks ago. L04 from b&h.
Bought it unlocked at Frys a week ago and received the update yesterday. I just want to caution all rooted and unlocked users! I received the update yesterday and upgraded it like a fool. I cant get into twrp recovery and the stock recovery seems to be broken. I even installed a newer twrp thru fastboot but im still not able to go into recovery. Im looking through all the forums but no one seems to have this problems yet. Im still waiting on some help if anyone has a solution. So please be aware before updating. Hopefully Im the only one with this problem.

Ahh, I was an idiot and had the same thing.
What happened is that I was rooted, and installed via Charles app, and it bugged out.
The reason for that is that TWRP can't install the stock ROM.
You need to get into fastboot, and reflash the stock recovery, and use it to dload the emui 4.1 file. Make sure you get the full package version.
After that it will be all wiped. You might run into a few errors but let the recovery do its thing.
You'll eventually be able to boot into the OS and then run the update normally.
I want to root my honor 8 on nougat, but I'm waiting for a patch from Huawei first because of all the bugs, just because of this.
Also I don't think rooting the honour 8 on nougat works that we'll yet, hopefully someone comes up with a method that doesn't suck so hard.
Hopefully they'll do it quickly.
Do you mind pointing me to the right direction to find those files? stock recovery and the 4.1.
Ive seen the rollback files... is that what you're talking about?

I used the firmware finder tool for it. You can get it for Windows. It's somewhere around the forum, but you can probably Google it.
Once you get the full package you can extract the recovery.img from it.
Unlocked FRD-L04 bought from Amazon. Living in Argentina. Got update yesterday. Really happy with it.
Folks, if you are impatient, you can use the Firmware Finder to send the Firmware B360 (I am using the Jan 3 one) to your Updater for a full package update. More information can be found at https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/news-huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3550882
A few notes here from my personal experience:
1. Once you set up the proxy from the Finder's proxy app which should be downloaded after you enabled the "send firmware to updater" (check notification afterward), you then click on the latest firmware # and "send firmware to updater".
2. On the Setting/Updater, click the menu and use "Download full update package", which should direct you to a 2.27Gb package (not the 1.28Gb package, or you will not be able to login!) and click on the "Quick update" button. You may need to wait for a while to see this option. Up to now, you may not be able to download anything yet.
3. Go back to the wifi setting and turn on proxy setting to "None" again and reconnect with the wifi network. Now you should pause the Updater and then resume it. You should now be able to download the full package and install it.
4. After all the update process, it could be helpful to charge your phone without the screen turning on. This is told to be useful to optimize the battery performance immediately after the update. The phone might be slow in a couple of hours as optimizations are going on in the background. But everything will become normal afterward
Good luck!
bought L04 from newegg using it in Pakistan no update for me as of yet
This is all bulls*it. Same update we got in january, and by the way, it's buggy.
L04 here, bought from Amazon about a month ago. Running on T-Mobile US. Still no update yet.
Is there any way to change the white notification background? I prefer the old color scheme, Mich easier on the eyes at night.

I'm stuck too in 7.1.1, no November update ? ta-1025 Amazon adds
The same happens to me I have the ta 1025 and i am still on august security patch
I finally managed to update it using the instructions on this post. I had to pull out the SIM card, do a factory reset, install Turbo VPN and try the update again.
I'm waiting for the December patch but otherwise I'm on 7.1.2 with November patch.

Me too. I'm with 7.1.2 but with November patch, TA-1039. Maybe we don't get the December patch and directly get Android Oreo

Supposedly we'll be getting the Oreo beta "soon." I'm wondering if they'll finish the beta phase for the Nokia 5 before they start the 6.
Although the phone is "unlocked" from Amazon the moment you put in a sim card it becomes tied to that cell carrier and thus no OTA unless pre-authorized by your carrier.
Follow the instructions posted by @kaykhoso96 and do a factory reset without your sim, rise and repeat process each month to get the latest update.
Additionally, for slightly less work, use the DDLs posted by @qwertysmerty and update from SD card each month.
Not without effort, but at least Nokia are sending out monthly updates. :victory:
I have the Nokia 6 from Amazon ads and I am no receiving any OTA so my phone is still on August security patch how can I fix that

As per my post above you:
1. Try a different brand sim – OTA is locked by carrier authorization.
Still not working? Then:
2. Remove sim card and factory reset with sim removed, leave sim out and use a VPN set to USA and let the updates rain.
I also have a TA-1025, I've factory reset my phone 4 times now. From November onwards I've successfully SD loaded the DDLs posted by Qwerty, saving monthly factory resets.
The fault doesn't seem to lie with Amazon but with whoever your cell carrier is.

I had same issues as OP, it was fixed when i added in the "fota" in the apn settings, i guess it stands for "firmware over the air" and all of a sudden here comes my December patch. This was on T-Mobile just FYI.
@twinturboz suggestion above could be another option (since it's so simple it would be worth trying it before trying 2.).
I've just added fota to my carrier APN, will see if the carrier pushes updates. Do you know if it requires you to have sufficient mobile data or will it still work over WiFi with mobile data turned off?

ASFAIK Nokia has firmware updates strictly WiFi only, i don't have home internet so all i did is use my iPhone SE as a hotspot and got everything installed that way.
Today, I just got a new firmware update that takes my Honor 7X US version from BND-L24567B140 to B150
Update says only: Google Stagefright: Google security patches are merged to make your device more secure.
Google security patch is updated to latest i.e. March 1.
I got this update even though I am in Mexico on Movistar local SIM and local provider. So it does not seem to depend on location.
I have another Honor 7X with T-Mobile SIM but it did not get the update yet. Still on B140. Maybe it is a staged update over several days.
Nothing really new. Still no news on Oreo update.
Joe
Whicheans Oreo would be rolled in 3-4 months
I got that update yesterday also on the L24. Nothing special which is very disappointing. Got excited for a couple seconds until I read the description

Any ideas?

I had a similar problem.. stuck on a b187 for months (Since Jan 2018) - got so fed up I risked using 'firmware finder' app (which I believe don't work anymore) in August which upped it to B197, but was STILL not getting any updates OTA even though others (in UK) were posting in another thread that they were
So I emailed Huawei customer support asking when UK updates were coming, they replied asking for my IMEA number so that they can check & the very next day I got the B209 OTA update (read my post here) and shortly afterwards I got full updates all the way up to Oreo (B371)
I'm not saying that my Email got the cogs rolling but it was strange after many months, that after just 2 emails (1 asking & 1 with IMEA number) & within a DAY I suddenly got full updates. Maybe you could do the same & see what they say
