Same my model is b150 still didnt get the update

if you mean to say you can't find the update to nougat, it should rollout in the first quarter of 2017, so there's still about 2 weeks left

that's possible, it is being rolled out, not everyone gets it at the same time, just wait till the end of march, you should get it by then

New firmware found on Firmware Finder VKY-L29C636B151 for P10 Plus

Anyone updated to this new firmware yet ?

I wonder if the update comes with june security patch. Mine stuck in april.

I'm concerned updating will do the same thing as last time - wipe root, TWRP, relock the boot and (potentially) the rest of my data
RoOSTA

you can manually download the OTA update from here.
http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/305653925/
just downloaded but reluctant to try out :X

will it work on p10?

I updated manually,there is camera improvement and better battery,and the phone stay cooler than before.
It has may security not june.
Ps i was on c185b124 couldn't get the ota to b133 till i changed my sim card to another country.
But rebranded later to c636 to try this one .

hmmm....do u mean one of those two firmwares for L09 released end of june? C25B501 and C212B120... id guess the latter since B120 is a bit too "low" in number. in any case, that would be so awesome )))

thats the thing: B120 and android 7? doesnt fit together if u ask me! huawei always tries to hide new OS betas by "downgrading" the description

That's correct JBMC83 , I remember when nougat was coming out via beta and it said it was emui 3.1. Any firmware finder with PV beside it means u can instance it via twrp , I figured that out just recently by trial and error

Do you have oem info for L09? Is it single or double SIM? I will try if I get the oem info.
Is this feasible on L29 if at all you have oem info?

November 2017 confirmed

There is a kernel in one of the brandnew l09 updates on ff that is absolutely awesome. Its says unreleased on the about kernel but it works so great and has support for power killing apps and best is the fingerprint issue is gone . I took it and rooted it for kangb589.

If someone has a flashable zip that converts al to south america 605 cust and oem info i could create a zip flashable via twrp system , it was already pree rooted r w rw for delevopment.

You didn't answer previous few questions... Did you actually flashed Android O? If yes, any screenshots? If not then say so so people stop expecting..... Lol. Not an issue.....

Yes I used dload method about 3 times before successful and to boot into recovery , facrory reset and I had to use emui 5.0 supersu in the recovery 3.1.1.1 and then it booted , developer options worked also. Just broken wifi , I did not get into testing much , there is a link on asia site talking about the release. It also appears that the l09 is being sold in many more regions now , huawei doesn't communicate at all even with sr beta testers. Just update and hope it doesn't brick is huaweis way of thinking I guess.

I installed it on a l29 that was debranded to DL 17 used stock recovery to factory reset and then installed 3.1.1.1. Basically same thing as how we installed the original beta for noughat.

very interesting info there... in any case, ill hold back until its more stable and functional, just great to know theres still hope for the mate 8 looks like B589 could be the last stable emui 5 rom, so worth flashing in the meantime

Oreo will be cool but my love miss mate 8 has a crappy graffics card , that will hinder the entire os but its projected to release In fall this year.

That depends on what variant you have, the official Oreo is out for the AL00, C636, and C432 regions, it's not out for the rest of us yet. You can rebrand to a C432 variant and install the European version (C432), or one of the others. Otherwise you'll have to wait on the official version to come out for your region

I am in Europe (Greece) L29 C432 B198 and Oreo is not available yet..........

What is use FF?
Btw.. I noticed that.. After upgraded my mate 9 to oreo through OTA... There's something missing.
1: Vulkan api no longer supported.
Performance issues.
1: 3D mark scores with Oreo are worse than Nougat.
2: 2k and 4k downloaded videos and movies, lagging and stuttering while playing.. Especially with 60fps ( idk.. Perhaps 3rd app not optimised for oreo)
And i didn't face any of this problem with Nougat.
Btw.. I love the EMUI 8..

There isn't an Oreo update on FF for C432 or C636

You should have added a model (MHA-L29) in FF. Usually you will find your model in parentheses; MHA-L29 8.0.0.361 (C636), for example. You'd better check firmware access before any updating or downgrading.

Yes, after upgraded to emui8, i found my mate 9 is terribly hang and lots of the apps crashed or spent more than 3mins just for ran it.
The interface is nice but the phone is too slow or taken too much of time to load.

Had the same and was steadily getting worse. Had emails not displaying, apps not opening etc.... Few days ago i wiped data and factory reset and so far its blisteringly fast once more and zero issues. Probably worth doing that for you.

Thanks, I wonder why they changed the naming convention.

My OTA update came in yesterday. Several important (to me) apps stopped working. I need to go back.
I'm not experienced with Huawei methods, so I need some pretty specific instructions to go back on US version. If anyone can point me to that it would be appreciated.
I am tempted to wipe and reload apps, but I have so much setup to do with that, I hate to take that time. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the two main apps I want working and they just won't work.

None here yet. Are you sure that's not an update for the beta?
EDIT: nevermind, found it in Firmware Finder. Now to figure out how to circumvent the beta and force an upgrade.
EDIT 2: follow this tutorial to the letter and you'll get the update through HiSuite: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78850439&postcount=1325
But make sure to download the version from the post, I had a newer one that refused to work.
EDIT 3: aw sweet, they fixed the bug with gestures and 3rd party launchers!
