Android 7 update OTA - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Hello,
I've updated my vns l21c432 from b160 to b370 using firmware finder (full ota update). Everything is working great. I just have one question if anybody knows. Will I receive future official updates via OTA with this build ?
Thanks.

No one knows for sure at this point in time, but probably yes!

EMUI updater

Hi all,
I am running a GRA-L09C432B200.
My updater says: No updates.
What is the reason ? As far as I know, there should be plenty official releases from Huawei. Can I do anything or should I just update myself.
It was the same for me in Romania, just get a firmware and manually update.
Exactly the same for me, in south Africa with my software being at b151

If you are in Europe, with B200 you can update to B370 directly, then B380...
Huawei P8 Official Marshmallow 6.0 [EMUI4.0.1] GRA-L09C B370 Eur Full [no wipe]
[Firmware][Leak]Huawei P8 B380 - GRA-L09C432B380
Edit: Ok, B380 may not be recommended as it seems to have broken Android Pay functionality on my phone. If this is not an issue for potential updaters, then it's fine.

Install firmware finder and adjust setting to view last firmware
If it can't find nougat update , you can unlock bootloader and update via twrp method

I found the b563 fw but when i tried to update it it stopped at 1 % and the phone rebooted. What can cause the problem ?
Keep checking! Older firmwares have some small optimization to be done. So these guys r releasing slowly

On the firmware finder app, disable OTA, and you'll see that the ones that say FULL/OTA will disappear,
and the only FULL that shows up are the older (EMUI 4x) ones. At least that's what happens on
mine. L29C185B321
I just manage to update to b563 by first flash b211 using the dload method, and then i could update to b563 with firmware finder . Thanks for the help everybody !

I am from Macedonia and also using VIP and I haven't received the update but I installed it using Firmware Finder app and its full OTA so if you want Nougat then you CAN try with the FF method.
Поздрав.

I don't recommend you update your device using this app. I updated my device using this app once but the update was unofficial and messed up my phone, and I had to downgrade it back to Marshmallow. I don't recommend it to anyone who wants to update his phone. Just be patient and wait for the Huawei to release the original OTA update.

I don't receive any update via OTA because i buy this phone on a site. It was new, but is was buy probable of Sri Lanka or China. This is the reason to use Firmware Finder, and update from MM to N works good. My question is: what is the final version of EMUI and Android for my P9 Lite?
Thanks.

To check that you have to email Huawei. I can't know because I don't have the proper requirements as Huawei has.

I found a tutorial here in xda. I can't remember it. Just search in xda "How to downgrade from Nougat to Marshmallow" without quotes.
Can someone share a download link of firmware VNS-L31C636B506?
Thanks

want to update from NRD90M testkeys (L31)

Title says it all 1. Is there an update to NRD90M and 2 if so where can I find the update (nougat.) Also does the UK fit beta app still install for you guys ok? I keep getting 'this package conflicts with an existing package with the same name' I don't have it installed (used to) and I cannot find a solution anywhere on the net.
First downgrade back to MM with the official Rollback package and MM firmware from the Huawei support website.
After that, use Firmware Finder to upgrade to the Full OTA Nougat firmware B371 and next to B381.

Where exactly on their support site do I find the firmware? Because every link posted redirects me to a generic support page or a "not found" and I can't find anywhere to download the file for my phone and region. Thank you in advance.
