Will Huawei send nougat OTA or do I have to download it?

I'm not seeing any traditional update software options in the about phone section. How will we receive Android OS updates on this tablet? Thanks.

Well it seems in the moment there just are no updates...
Normally you should get your update via ota (you should see an update option in your "main menu"), except for beta/leaked versions, if they should leak anyhow/anytime...
For now, there are no leaked or official updates for our mediapad m3 :-/

If you Google nougat for Huawei mediapad M3 there are several sites that claim they have the download you can Flash
The only thing in the about phone setting I can find about updates is updating the emui

As I know the update emui menu will also update your android (for example to android 7 + emui 5.0).
I know these sites, but as long as I do not see a link hier on xda, on the huawei news pages or on the huawei homepage itself I think these links are just nonsense.
(For example some of these pages just link every phone available and say "download XXXXX android 7 here"... I would not try to install these... But I also suppose you won't get a real package anyway there.)

Thank you. Those sites also try to force you to open up Facebook page......total b.s.

Rally don't know if we ever see 7.0 for the M3.
The M2 never received 6.0, and what I heard is that Huawei just doesn't give a fu** about tablet software.

Huawei generally doesn't give a fu** about software updates. My Mediapad X2 GEM 701 never received an update. That's why I had to undergo a hugely complex updating procedure with chinese ROMs modified sh1t.

I just got the new update with October patch. They removed the navigation bar too.

How did you get this patch for your m3? Mine can not find any updates...

Chinese version only perhaps?

Actually it's the September security patch,but I got a notification in the update section. About 256mb. Took about 20 min to complete. I bought my tablet in Thailand.

Do you mean you can now disable the on-screen buttons or what has changed with that update? Thx!

I think that the NOUGAT OTA will be sent together with the new EMUI 5.0 (this version of its ui layer is based on android 7)... Anyone know an approximate date?

Correct,also it said better chrome operation,so maybe people that had problems running chrome in small format ,now can. I always had mine set in medium text and didn't have a problem. There were other things it said ,basic improvements,etc... I can't really notice any change other than the ability to disable the new buttons. Which like I said ,disables the ability to start split screen. Unless someone can tell me how to do NB it with only the fingerprint scanner......I'm also running Nova free launcher.
Plainly,this tablet is sick as F. I'm coming from a wifi only Xperia z3tablet compact though...... the only reason I bought this just because the camera Hardware had a malfunction on the Sony.

Haha haha,
Yes in a very good way. It's heavier than the z3 compact,and no water resistance,but it's smooth ,fast,and the LTE connectivity is incredible. I always have 5 bars of 4g. Now ,I live in Thailand,and the internet is crap here compared to the USA,so in the states it's probably even better. It was half the cost of a normal flag ship phone too,and it's basically a huge phone. It comes with a screen protector and a case,however the case is Carmel color and hard to look at,but it's growing on me. This tablet charges very fast too.
If your on the fence,buy it for sure.

As far as I read not all CPUs are conform with Android 7.0. The M2 has one of them. The CPU of the M3 is conform so i hope we will see the update soon.

Where's our Nougat update ZTE??

Update 6/21/2017: OTA update to Android 7.1.1 is out, and I received the OTA and installed it around 10 pm CST. Working great so far!! I like to think that my writing this post here on XDA finally caught the attention of ZTE, so they decided to get the update out ASAP lol. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Getting a Nougat update for the Axon 7 mini seems to be too much of a challenge for ZTE. As most of you know, ZTE has been running a closed Beta test of Android Nougat for our device. Three months is a pretty long Beta test, and it seems to me that ZTE may be experiencing some problems. I am not part of the Beta, I was in the hospital and didn't find out about it until sign ups were over. Is there anyone who's running the Beta right now that could give us an update? Feel free to PM me, and I can pass any updated info along to those of us not in the Beta, as I don't want anyone who does pass the info along to get in trouble for violating an NDA. Thanks!

I messaged ZTE on twitter about a week ago asking if they plan on releasing nougat or if not to unlock the bootloader if they planned on no longer supporting the device and this is the reply I got.
The Axon 7 Mini is still supported, and we've confirmed than an update will be released soon. We appreciate your continued patience. At this time, we are unable to provide assistance to unlock the bootloader of this device.

Thanks for the info, hopefully the update will be here soon!
I have received information about the beta via a couple of PM's from active beta testers. Looks like they are currently testing 7.1.1 with the June security patch. The software is said to be running good, but has a couple unspecified bugs that need to be corrected. All sources indicate that the update should be releasing very soon, but no confirmed release date yet. I wi6add further information as I receive it.

That's just weird. According to the beta testers, that build was sent to them shortly after the beta began, and still has some software bugs. I would have thought that ZTE would at least have one more update to the firmware prior to launch.
I guess we'll see if ZTE just ignored the bugs to get the update out. Apparently the OTA is supposed to be available, but I'm not seeing it yet (Missouri). Anyone here in the US been able to update yet?

I am downloading the 7.1.1 update now! I have the Axon 7 Mini on T-Mobile in the US. I will post more info as soon as it finishes. Very excited to see it says it adds T-Mo Wi-Fi calling support.

I got the update last night but this morning after turning on the T-Mobile wi-fi calling it messed up my cellular radio. Keeps turning on/off. Connects then disconnects. Anyone else having this problem?
Looks like I may have to reset the phone. ?

Can u share with us some screenshots of the nougat experience on the mini?

So far the update is great! before the update if I enabled VoLTE I was unable to receive texts. The update fixed that. Wi-Fi calling works great. Here are some screenshots of the updated Settings menu.

Is it possible to set a custom dpi?

So I reset my phone and that didn't fix my problem. I messed around with all the WiFi & WiFi calling settings and cellular data settings with none of them fixing my problem. I then turned on the developers options and for some reason that fixed my cellular from turning on and off.
That fixed my issue if anyone has the same problem.

Okay thanks man

My son's got it this morning finally... Update took a while, probably close to 40 minutes start to finish, including the "Android is upgrading" portion after full boot. That must be an N thing, it rebuild cache on the fly or something. So far so good, no issues or problems yet.
We don't have T-Mobile here, use H2O (an AT&T MVNO) and so far no issues with radios or connection.
TBH, the more I play with this device the more I like it... the UI isn't too bad, one thing that gets me is the modified "Home" menu and you can't easily switch launchers without uninstalling one, but that is for another thread if I ever decide to pursue it.

Actually, it's in the Developer Settings. I saw it under "smallest width," if I'm not mistaken.

So, after I installed the update, I had connection problems. Everything had trouble using data. I reset and it's fine. And I must say, I'm impressed. It feels smoother and faster than before. I'm happy they finally released it.

Huawei Honor Note 8

Hi there I have a Huawei Honor Note 8. I've owned it for 4 weeks and I LOVE this phone. I don't have auto-update enabled on the Google Play Store so I do it manually and it worked until today. When I clicked update (there were 16 updates available and I only chose 15) it just sat there saying it was downloading but it wasnt. It went an hr and nothing still. The little icon kept on twirling around and each app individually kept saying downloading but nothing. It once did download but not now. So I went to the permissions in the settings and everything was still checked. Also, contacts stopped synching so I went to accounts and went to sync to do it manually and when I clicked sync all, it just sat there and nothing happened as if it were frozen. I knew I was taking a chance by ordering something from out of the country but everything worked fine the first few weeks.
I read that a system update came out and that people were having issues with their bluetooth connections after the update so I didnt accept any updates from Huawei in fear of those few comments. Do you think that has something to do with it and should I always accept system updates from huawei?
Confused but in LOVE with this device, best device I've ever owned. Im in the USA by the way if that matters. Also, browsing the web with wifi works fine so the wifi isnt the problem.

Hot Diggity! Honor Sent Me A Software Update!

Bout Time Something Came Through...
I know... Everyone else on the Planet most likely already has the B140 Software update...
But at least I know I'm on the list! even if it is last..
Wonder what happened to B192 for the BND - L24 ?
If anyone that reads this can chime in.. was it a prerequisite that the 7x received B140 before B192 ? and does anyone that has a BND - L24 received B192 yet?

I'm still waiting on my update ?

But what is B140 ?... nothing more than AR.. and unless you are a selfie freak the novelty last about 2 seconds.
Facical Unlock (B192) is what should have been released instead of this.. The 1st market received B192 the last week of January.
At Least I've got the February Security Patch.. believe it or not, I was still on the December 1 Security Patch... :angel:

Mr. Ambassador.. Thank You.
Kind words indeed... I just offer my insight as I see it with the Honor 7x.
All of us have invested our hard earned dollars into this device.
And it's a GREAT device.. just standing on it's own merits.
EMUI has matured.. And, because Huawei / Honor controls their overlay AND the SoC.. it's a smooth running machine.
The Software is PACKED with useful features from tempeture adjustments to themes, dpi and much more.
This is the 1st device I've owned where I can honestly say, *Rooting is an OPTION.. Not A Requirement*
Some people have accused me of starting a rebellion.. telling others not to root their devices..
OWNER'S CHOICE.
My words are not so powerful that when "Raiderwill Almighty" speaks you have to listen.
It's just MY point of view.

I completely agree to the point that Honor made "Rooting, an Option but not a requirement" with their emui .I bought this device with a few doubts as I tried custom ui like Miui and vibeui before and not really liked them .But I have no regrets for buying this device and I totally love emui now

Hello.. I'm Assuming, You Did Not Have This Issue Prior To Receiving The B140 Update ?
Since you've Factory Reset your device might I suggest you go into Setting > Display > Sleep and set it to 10 minutes.. and see if that fixes your issue with Chrome... Only Chrome huh ?

This is an EMUI bug and has shown up in devices like the Honor 8, P10, Mate 9, etc.
When a few people were reporting this issue on the Honor 8 I didn't face it so I'm assuming it affects only a small number of people.
This showed up immediately after the update right?

RevOS-MIUI rumoured to have added support for Mi Mix 5g

Does anybody have experience with this rom? They mentioned on a twitter post earlier this week that support for Mi Mix 5g will be added soon.
https://twitter.com/RevOSTechs/status/1260523438877429763/photo/1

I think I'm going to try it right now.

Please report back how it goes, especially with functionality. They are claiming MIUI 12 so I am keen to see what is and isn't working.

I have successfully downloaded and flashed it! ?
Hello,
I am here, from Kuala Lumpur, MY
As for now, so far so good. Need to experience more the latest miui12!
See yeah!

I'd say the same. Everything works well except for some minor minor bugs with the dark mode and 3rd part apps (like SwiftKey) and the fact that it's not that fast and smooth as the previous one I had (pixel experience). The main camera app works as well and video recording works too (but for some reason it records only up to 1080p 60 fps). The main question I have now is about the battery drain. I hope it's at least as optimized as the pixel experience is.

Great reports,
Interesting about the video working to 1080p. Any idea if 5g connectivity is working?
I wonder what they have based this on as there is only MIUI 11 beta ROM in circulation as far as I know and this registers as MIUI12.

I think they kinda ported the ROM from the one for the Xiaomi K20 Pro since they have quite the same hardware. I read once that, even if it's very risky, you can force flash a K20 ROM on the Mi MIX 3 and it will boot anyway. Unfortunately I can't test the 5G network, BUT:
There's no "Tethering USB" option in the settings. This functionality is disabled for some reason.
There's no "Hotspot" option in the settings. This functionality is disabled too :crying:
The ROM is quite laggy (Don't know if it's because of a conservative governor or if it's just about a bad optimization).
I think I'll roll back to pixel experience, too many problems that need to be solved yet.

Here's the link to the repository with all the ROMs for Andromeda:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xiaomi-andromeda/files/
Just tap on the green button saying "download the latest version" and it will download the PE. Or just go into the Pixel Experience directory and find the latest one =)
I also suggest you to install the 78 Hz dtbo, it's freaking smooth

The official RevOS website says, that the 5g rom is a port from the mi8SE firmware.
I tried it again and now it seems to work. But I can't set the Fingerprint. Did you tested the Fingerprint and if yes, was it working?

Guys, is this an official ROM of MIUI for MIX3 5G? It will be update normally?

Actually I don't remember of testing the fingerprint scanner, but it's always the first thing I set during the first set-up, so I don't remember if it worked on my phone or if I skipped that step XD
A porting from a completely different phone with a different SoC family and model, different modem (and it's not even compatible for the 5G), different screen type and resolution? The only thing matching between the Mi 8 SE and the Mi Mix 3 5g is the main camera sensor XD And I'm not even considering that there are different approaches to the light sensor/proximity sensor and so on. I mean, why?

Maybe the challenge strange, I haven't got any set up screen. Straight into the launcher. I will test PE instead. Sounds promising, thanks for that.

No? There isn't even the official MIUI 11 for the Mi MIX 3 5G. This is a porting from the MIUI 12 ROM for the Mi 8 SE apparently, made by this RevOS Russian team.

Me neither, but then there was the Google notification to complete the setup of the phone and I did it.
Yeah, I'm using it now and it's absolutely perfect. The video recording is the only thing missing.

sorry i'd like to know if this is an official custom rom (like lineage), and not some unofficial or unstable ones, thanks.

The MIUI 12 is absolutely unofficial, and way far to be something barely stable XD
Anyway, every custom ROM for the Mi Mix 3 5G is Unofficial.

No I don't think they will, the Mi MIX 5G is (officially?) abandoned, although there is a petition here:
https://www.change.org/p/xiaomi-corporation-upgrade-mi-mix-3-5g-flagship-to-miui-11
So maybe Xiaomi will notice that that wasn't a fair and smart move, I mean, forgetting about their first 5G smartphone (and in general, one if not the first 5G smartphone ever made), with top-notch features, initially sold for around 600$ is nearly like a scam.
Anyway, I don't suggest you install the Revos porting at the moment. It lacks many basic features (such as USB tethering or the Wi-Fi hotspot) and it's very, very laggy.
