Latest ota update, anyone updated?
NO. didn't get it yet. when we getting Android 7.1.1 Nougat update ?
Mine stuck at September security patch. But there is no reason to update because of the bootloader locked up. So no downgrade to early firmware build. So let's be root!
Off topic - I've buy G735F and the battery gave me 1.5 hour more sot. Of course smaller display size and similar performance. The real upgrade is the waterproofing. No reason for me to keep it up. Sd slot isn't usable for me.

Factory image question MM

Im looking to downgrade back to marshmallow from android N. Im looking at the factory images and not sure what the difference is between them. There is 6.0.1 (MTC20L) there all the same but have different letters at the end of them does that matter? Just looking for the latest version of MM . Thanks
They are listed sequentially from oldest to the newest. If you were going to flash MM, MTC20L would be the newest. Keep in mind you will not have any of the security updates issued after that ROM was released, and you will be nagged to update to the latest 7.1.1 release.

Has anyone downloaded and updated the mate 8 with this update from FF?
If yes please let me know your comments so as to decide whether to update as well.
Am currently on C185B190.
Does not seen i Shall ever get an update to nougat.
Thank you
I updated my phone to B321 two days ago. Is seems to be smoother, but it may be like this because I did factory reset that day
Which file u download ... 1.9GB or 400 MB OTA... And do u download it from the F. F apps
I did mine through FF, sending it to the stock update app. Seems a little smoother. With the glitches still coming from
time to time with a lot of people appear to be having with emui5/nogut7 I think I'll hold off on updating to any emui5 firmware.

I'll update to emui 5.0 when they will release something newer than B560.
BTW, I also updated my phone trough FF.
I am on L29C185B200 ... I want to update B560 ... But when I try to download it from the firmware finder app... It's only downloads 74%... It's full file size is 1.87GB but it downloads only 1.4GB ... Help me please
Hi. I am on L29C185b320 can any one suggest a proper way and firmware to upgrade plz.
Try Firmware Finder app for Huawei...
In FF, turn off "use new firmware base" and "view OTA updates"
When I did that, the ONLY firmware that shows up is the 321 firmware OR EARLIER.
I'm of the opinion, I'm going to leave the new firmware base & view OTA off until I see
the "official" version of 7, then wait a couple weeks to see how it works out.
I'm also trying to get 7.0 update... In Firmware Finder it's showing B560 but I can't download it ... There is a problem with the system ...

Doubt there is a problem with the system, it's because your build, will not allow the updating of an OTA version most likely.
In the setting of the FF program, turn off OTA and then look for firmware. When I did that last week, the 321 build was the
only option I had. My guess is that when/if a FULL build for our particular phone is available, with the OTA turned off, a
full build will show up.
But, that is just a theory on my part.
What's your build number ... Mine is L29C185B200...

Android 8 Oreo Update

Maybe because the Sprint Oreo will be using BLv6 so its 2 numbers behind everyone else? lol ... anyone have any thoughts about what the BL-version could possibly be for the Sprint Oreo? ... could they or would they use a BLv4 like everyone else?
that was the Sprint answer

If anything, they would change it to v7. Maybe they are waiting for a merger, which could happen next week
I checked for update today and got 1627.64mb g930pvpu6cre7 Samsung experience 9.0 with oreo.
I haven't gotten an update from Sprint on my S7 since December 2016. I am still on some random Nougat beta version.
I thought a brand new firmware update to Oreo would reset whatever bug was in there causing this, but it looks like one person in my house got the Oreo update and mine is still saying I am up to date when I check manually.
Is there no longer an ODIN for macOS? I thought there was one, but I used it on another Mac maybe 4 years ago when I was on my S3 and rooting it. Doesn't seem to exist anymore.
Just received oreo on my s7 for boost. So far I'm not impressed. I was really hoping for Dolby on this but guess not. The build number is SMG930PVPU6CRE7

On Mac you can use Heimdall to flash the latest Nougat firmware then update through OTA to Oreo. Because there isn't any firmware file yet on Updato or Sammobile.
i manfully updated @ 4:15. they sent it @ 1627.64 mb. still downloading. when I got my att update I tried all the batch root methods for my 935a. saving magisk for last bc I didn't have the boot.img for the cre4 update.
I I only had the "att beta" update from March. long story short it won't boot with the nougat eng.boot. I gave it an hour. I cleared the cache, factory reset, tried to add flash all of the earlier img files I had for oreo, nothing worked. had to flash it back to nougat bra1. I immediately requested the update again. they approved. the next day I attempted to flash magisk 16.4. w/ the modified odin 3.1.3 version. it wouldn't flash. with the cre4 boot.tar in hand, I tried every method on gods green earth to gain some sort of r/w access. it was late, I was tired, I flashed the eng boot. once again it was stuck at the Samsung boot logo. it wouldn't allow me into recovery to push the cre4 update zip. once again I'm back to bra1 nougat. I booted into recovery & updated it from the sd card. when it booted I noticed it wasn't anywhere as clean & polished as the ota I had twice. I've flashed back to brd1 ten times, & requested the ota. after smart switch, I used all the avail windows software I could acquire & kept trying, they won't send it. but they did provide me with a new picture for my samsung account. I'll post it later. gotta check out this 930p oreo.

I don't think Heimdall works on High Sierra or even Sierra anymore.
I'm wanting to move to a SM-930U version of stock android on my 930P. But in struggling to do so for the past couple of weeks I finally figured out that sprint as updated the bootloader to version 5 and most of the firmware images for 930U are version 4 (android 7 nugut). (PU4 vs PU5) which results in a Odin fuse error.
The phone is currently nagging me to go from PU5BQL1 to BU6BRD2. If I understand the nameing convention that would move me to version 6 of the bootloader.
What are the odds I can move to oreo for 930U and avoid the bootloader fuse issue? I think I also understand that as of this posting date a 930U oreo firmware has not been released?

almost zero... asuming that Oreo for "U" Variants step up with BL on this month maybe next one, is something pausible but stepping up two versions in any short time is questionable... but who knows. The best you can do is wait this or the next month for BL update on U variants.
To be clear I'm still on version 5. I will continue to put off the upgrade to 6.

Oreo OTA update not showing when when refreshing system updates.

So basically, my friend has been on nougat 7.1.1 for like a year now. Even though the update has been out for so long, it doesn't show up when I search for it through system updates. When I recently downgraded to nougat, I immediately got notified that the oreo update was available. So why doesn't it show up for him? Also if I were to download the update and install it manually, his data would be safe right? I wouldn't have to make a backup since it's just another OTA right?
What version is your friend's axon7? I once got a chinese version that was flashed with global rom, and it will never get any update untill you flash the original rom.

Nah he bought an A2017G spanking new. He shouldn't have this problem. Also funny story, I recently rooted my phone and installed magisk and LOS 15.1. Somehow its model is now A2017U. Any explanation?
I second that question. Got one second-hand two weeks ago with Nougat 7.1.1. No updates popping up, when I let it search for them.
I have same problem. Android 7.1.1 A2017GV1.2.0B05 and no update find...
