Came here to see what everyone else thinks of the update, but no one else seems to be talking about it. Did anyone else get updated?
For reference, I'm using a FRD-L04 on AT&T in the USA. I'm currently on build FRD-L04C567B360. I'm not rooted or anything, just got the phone a month ago.
I didn't do anything to get the update, (not even manually running the updater) just got a notification that the software update was available.
It's been fantastic so far. I felt that EMUI 4 was slick and quick but this feels even faster and smoother. Very happy so far but it's only been a few hours. (went to bed shortly after upgrading)

Can you post a screenshot on the about info? Just to make sure some rumors are true that some people will get the update earlier for the L04 model.
Screenshot added to OG post.
Interesting, they must have just started rolling it out despite the February release rumors.
Hmm.. I haven't received it yet.Were you rooted? Were you on the B162 firmware before?

OP said he isn't rooted and got the phone a month ago. But I did hear rumors that some L04 variants would get nougat a couple weeks in advance so I don't really expect to get nougat until a couple of weeks into February.
Also OP does the stock messaging app support quick reply implemented from nougat?
In Poland some people get official OTA for L09 model, so they start updating our phone earlier

I was also able to get the EMUI5/Nougat upgrade through HiCare under the "early adopter" section. I'm in Finland and have L19 (the 64GB dual-SIM version).
Based on what I read, the early adopter program is not a beta program, but just the first bunch to receive the official upgrade?
Haven't installed the upgrade yet, have to first backup and charge the phone.

I would say it's more like release candidate. Under the early adopter section I have a comment that "some of the updates doesn't have official status and could be still not stable". Anyway, enjoy. It brings this much needed UI refresh
Where can I find the early adopter section in the hicare app?
after the update the screen off and lock is not working anymore, if you lock with the app you must enter password to unlock
in the app it's under Service, Os update and early adopters, make sure you have the latest version of Hicare from the Playstore also,.
Hej everyone...
Same happened to me today morning...i've got notification then OTA update is ready to download...
I'm in Sweden, not rooted, locked bootloader...
Thanks, that's what I thought. Of course it's useless to have an early adopter program if you are forced to release the same version to the others anyway. You have to have an option to fix bugs if major showstoppers arise.
Did the upgrade, everything went smoothly.
I was pleasantly surprised that the upgrade still has Huawei Swype keyboard as an option in addition to Swiftkey. I use Swype on all my mobile devices, now I don't have to install it separately.

Hi guys, I got the 360 update this morning.
Its not the official N update im on the beta N uk program.
I was intouch with honor UK early this week and he said that we would get another beta update before the official N release.
As you can see from the screen shots this update was only nearly 500mb.
I'm not sure if they are doing different things in different countries but this is what's happening in the UK

GREAT NEWS for all Motorola Milestone 2 A953 users!
Motorola Europe announced today (31 Augusut) that Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread upgrade will be available early Q4 of 2011!
Lets Celebrate!
I wonder how long a comment will last in there if I say something like "I'm already running 2.3.4 on mine and cant wait for some minor issues with CM7 to upgrade"
In the Official Forum:
"We can confirm that we expect the Android 2.3 upgrade for Milestone 2 users in Europe to begin rolling out in early Q4. More details on timing for each country will be shared closer to availability.
For LatAm users I don't have a similar confirmation at this time, however I will post additional information when I receive it.

I´m not a dev, but I´m a good test-user!!!
I bet there will be new problems to get root, to make backups, to flash CWM recovery... mmm... do not want to get back to stock
Perhaps, the official firmware might be useful to extract new kernel and hardware lib files and implement them into CM7/MIUI

I postet before the annoucement that I'm running CM7 since Moto isn't (wasn't) able to give us Gingerbread. They didn't delete it. I think the employes of Moto can understand the angry buyers of the Ms2.

if i remember correctyl, Moto made the statement that all future Releases will include the ability to unlock the bootloader. I think everything will be much easier by then.
The announcement started all new phones, not upgraded old phones. Has the Droid 2 been unlocked, as it upgrade is out?

I wouldn't be so sure, a tweet from Personal confirmed me that they were working on 2.3 (no dates given) and since Movistar already has a newer firmware (you are on version 2.2.2 and Personal is on 2.2) I think that if it comes it will come for all.
Just hoping...

But if they release it in Europe, wouldn't that mean that we (I mean you guys, you're the experts) can port it someway so we can still use it? I dont believe Personal is on a hurry for giving us 2.3 that fast.
In the Facebook fan page I found a post from the people who maintain it saying that they expect the release for late september / early october. That's within this month.

I am looking forward to the update, but isn't 4.2.1 buggy compared to 4.2.2? I haven't used either, but should ASUS just have waited and released 4.2.2?

My guess is that if 4.2.2 just came out for nexus devices not long ago ASUS may not have it for a while. If I remember correctly from my wife's Nexus 7 4.2 was buggy as hell, 4.2.1 was a vast improvement. I can't recall what 4.2.2 improves upon, but we didn't notice much change after I got her tablet upgraded last night.
Thanks for sharing

Those of you that have received the update, are you just checking for update in the about section on the tablet? I just updated mine to the last OTA, hadn't done that yet, and was going to try to update through the system updates but it tells me I'm up to date.
As of now, I'm not rooted and have stock recovery, bootloader is unlocked though.

Pretty sure you can't get otas once you unlock the boot loader.
NV flash
Does anyone knows if a nvflash feature is now available in the bootloader? Asus promised to add and it seems to me that the bootloader is update.

I think this will heavily depend on the carrier.
For me and Bell Mobility in Canada.. They haven't released a single update since they launched the phone (not even a stagefright update) so I have ZERO confidence that I'll be seeing Marshmallow through any OTA's.

so a carrier locked phone according to this screenshot will get the update on May 31... well, they say the update will come for unbranded devices first and then later to carrier locked phones, so the unbranded idols should get the update days or weeks before this date
or alcatel follows its way and at first releases updates on carrier locked devices and months later for unbranded ones :laugh:
i have a bad feeling about this.

I just got my 6045I global unlocked from Amazon to replace my stolen 60450(Cricket) a week ago, and it came with pre-marshmallow firmware and latest security update already installed.... I know this because the first one was old stock and arrived with the seal broken,so I asked for replacement and was told I could use old one until new arrived. The first downloaded the updates(came from Amazon fulfillment Kentucky), and the second came from Los Angeles (fresh from port,I assume), and had those 2 updates already installed,and judging from IMEI's, the 2nd was NEW, so make of that what you will. Everything I've heard points to end of May/early June. I am hoping for sooner, as the lack of ad blocking, and hopefully much improved memory management is killing me! We shall see.

Does updating to this impact Adhell2 installs? Will it re-enable all of the bloat that I've disabled already?
I installed this update this morning and I received "Android. System. UI has stopped working" every time my phone tried to boot.
I thought that Substratum StatusBar Icons for Samsung was causing the issue. I was able to boot into safe mode one time and uninstalled Substratum StatusBar Icons, thinking that this would fix my boot issue. My issue was not fixed and I was not able to boot into Safe Mode again without receiving the "Android. System. UI has stopped working" error every time.
I installed Samsung Galaxy S8+US Unlocked Firmware XAA Version Live!!! (https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s8+/how-to/galaxy-s8-xaa-version-live-t3613013) so that i can get my phone working again.

In a month or so, there could be a beta program. I don't think that Samsung will be able to make Android 8 available globally earlier than late December or even in the new year. I personally do want to see the update sooner than later

Does updating to this impact Adhell2 installs? Will it re-enable all of the bloat that I've disabled already?

In case anyone was wondering, I just decided to test it myself. Before applying the update I re-enabled all of the packages because I read elsewhere that people had an issue if certain Samsung system apps were disabled. I did not uninstall AdHell2, just re-enabled all of the packages. The update went by without any problems and I then disabled all of the packages I want removed from the running system after the update.
The only thing I had to do to get back to my same modified config was re-run the ADB commands to restore the mobile data toggle.

yea im surprised we didn't just get the september update. maybe there will be another update with 7.1.1? D: but its possible but i don't think samsung has released 7.1.1 for XAA models either yet so.
EDIT: are updates suppose to cause a dead pixel? after updating i got a dead pixel on my screen :\

No there shouldn't be a dead pixel from the update.
Finally, we FRD-L04 /L14 users will be receiving EMUI 8 (Oreo) within a month time after Honor/Huawei approved B560 update today evening as well as the EMUI 5 (NOUGAT) roll back package B398.
for those whom unlocked their bootloaders; don't forget to relock in order to receive FOTA.
Enjoy it
Nitrowarez.

Damn, it came 2 weeks after I've already upgraded my phone ?
Did you use HiSuite?
I was able to update using HiSuite - running EMUI 8.0 now. The phone updater did not show any updates, but my IMEI was always a few weeks behind in getting updates.
updating now.,
Make sure the device has more than 2.5gb free
Of course it was finally released. I'm supposed to have my new Oneplus 6T delivered today. LOL! I have to say though that I did enjoy my time with my Honor 8. I'd still be using it for a while if the battery hadn't recently gone to crap.

You have to use HI suite to get it
Thanks for sharing. How's the performance vs nougat? Also how's battery life for L04 users?
Avrcp music browsing working even though no developer option. Was a pleasant surprise!

Is it guaranteed to get from HiSuite?!
I was planning going the FF way
Hello all. Just wondering if there was anyone else still waiting on the Android 8 update? It's April 2019 and I still haven't received it yet. I even tried connecting my phone to my computer through Hi Suite, and it tells me I'm running the latest update. I'm still on Android 7 with EMUI 5. Not sure what's going on. I'd love to get the update though. Any suggestions?
Calm down, this is beautiful for FRD-L04 users, but unfortunately you will receive just B562 update after oreo, then it's the end. End of software support i mean. Honor is making strange things, continuosly update security patches on nougat while forgetting about oreo...as FRD-L09 user (running Oreo since it was officially launched a lot of time ago) i can assure that i've not received any other ota update after oreo and i should manually update even to B562

Same boat here. Been using my device stock from day one and finally got an itch to look into any update past Android 7. Found this thread so I installed Hisuite. Sure don't care what-so-ever for their EULA in their app. It's no wonder folks worry about the security of Huawei devices when you have to give up so much just to get a software update. Anyway I states I too have the latest available updates. For such a great phone hardware wise it feels like a shame how little updates it really got during it's life. Ah, well it still is functionally fine for now so I'll carry on as is.
Does anyone know how I can go to EMUI 8?
I've tried OTA, HiSuite, and Firmware flasher. None of these methods work. Firmware flasher, however does find the EMUI 8.0 upgrade, but even if I proxy the download, it won't show up in OTA update. If I download, it won't flash. Any ideas?
