You clearly don't understand that when we get emui 8 it's going to be Android Oreo. Otherwise we would still be on emui 5.0.1 just with emui 8 stuff ported over. smh come on please understand

Actually the fact that we will get emui 8 is confirmed by Honor once again and this time there is a thread in xda. Note that Huawei could well make a special version of emui 8 that runs on nougat. Xiaomi has been doing this with their phones as well

You can't base off of another phone company SMH. Honor has never does that and I highly doubt they ever will. Don't base what another company is doing to try to justify what u say, when again honor has never does that.
Someone still doesn't understand that EMUI 8.0 COULD run without Android 8.0. Beside the fact that usually Huawei/Honor doesn't give their devices an emui update without os update, this time has been said a lot of times that Honor 8 will get EMUI 8.0 features PORTED. Now, with that news we're still unsure if will update to EMUI 8. 0(optimized for nougat) or EMUI 8.0 + Android 8.0 (wich i'm hoping to)

I would much rather have emui 8 using nougat without bugs than one using oreo with a ton of them though. I am however currently at a custom ROM and I will change back only if it has oreo.

In fact i wrote it "EMUI 8 Feature Ported" wich means not new emui itself. However, the image clearly let us understand that the new skin will come. Now if it is with or withou Oreo only God knows.
As useful as discussing the angel's sex. Can be a port to Nougat or a full fledged update (Skin+OS). Speculation won't change that: as consumers we're either scammed or supported.

Marshmallow will definitely come for KIW-L24 model since Honor US mentioned it. I'm currently beta testing Marshmallow for KIW-L22, so it will recieve the update as well. I don't know about KIW-L21 model, but it will most probably receive it as well.
It's been another month... where's the update???
EMUI 4 for honor x5
Hello there.
I noticed on the Huawei web site that you can download EMUI 4 for honor x5.
File: Honor 5X OpenSource (KIW&KII Android 6.0_ EMUI4.0_kernel_overseas).zip
Does someone know how to apply the update?
Thanks

Hi, I'm pretty sure that is just the new kernel without the operation system. A kernel is low-level software sitting between the phone's hardware and the android operating system. We need Huawei to release the Android 6.0 operating system source code as well

Hello,
That's the source code and you cannot apply it as you need to compile that one first. The source code is meant for developers and is very useful for making custom ROMs.
I am not sure with Honor 5x model are you using, but here in India for KIW-22, the beta test for Android6+EMUI4 is under progress and I am one of the beta tester from the community. Same should be the situation all across the Globe. There are some problems with RAM management and battery. With the update, device consumes more RAM and battery than Android 5.1+EMUI3, which is keeping the update from the release. Developers are working hard to fix these issues and update should be out soon.
Also here in India, Honor has put release candidate version for Android6+EMUI4 update for download on request only for KIW-22. Here is the URL: https://club.hihonor.com/in/honor5x...i-4-0-marshmallow-limited-public-release.2985
I bet the same should be there for your region. You can download and update your phone to that version.
pank.dhnd, thanks for your detailed explanation.
I’m an average user, so in my case I will wait for the official update.
Regards

Short answer shorter: a leaked EMUI 5.0 schedule from Huawei claims the M3 edition of Android 7.0 (not 7.1) and EMUI 5.0 (with rumored much lower EMUI annoyance quotient (EMUIAQ)) is going into beta, and this may have already been released as of this past Wednesday the 18th. Release version is scheduled to go final in April and public in May. No word on if this is correct, current and not delayed, or even real. If you can read Chinese you may be able to glean a bit more info from the image.
Mate 8 users update to EMUI 5.0 over here.
Bonus cookie points if you know sekrit publik Huawei FTP dumps to check. Post type set to Q&A so any ROMs can get put up top.
You may want to see these two official thread on Chinese Huawei forum:
Here you may see some dates when some stagis of distributing EMUI 5.0 will come
And here you may try to become a beta tester

Do participants have to sign a NDA or why is there zero communication about the beta in forums?

That's actually a good question. I couldn't find any infos either...
I hope open beta comes soon, the 6.0 build is slow as hell.
I saw an update today, changing the build number from B002 to B003, but no other version info or specifics listed. I'll update tonight and see what it is.
Has anyone had success signing up for the Beta program & actually received outreach of any kind?
Also, has anyone from the US gotten signed up?
Thanks.

Wondering when Nougat EM5 comes to this device. Wish there were more hype and development on it. Love the device/hardware, hate the lack of evolution and EMUI 4.
Sent from my BTV-W09 using Tapatalk
I'm on BTV-DL09-C100-B302 (a very advanced EU test version I guess) and it is very stable.
If you can find an android 6 EMUI 4.1 full stock rom for your region (equivalent to BTV-DL09-C100-B009 for Europe), you can always, while waiting for the official release, update to a very advanced test/unofficial version if you find one for your region also.
BTV-DL09-C100-B302 has been very stable so far and it offers a nice look and feel and experience. I do love EMUI and the v5.0. It's a nice mix between IOS / android.
I don't think the official release will be any different and better than BTV-DL09-C100-B302. Security and bug fixes probably but very fine as it is.
Better battery life so far, wifi, bluetooth and LTE and... fingerprint sensor are perfectly stable. Compared to B006, better cellphone signal strength and it's stable (or my cell provider has improved the coverage in my area which is also possible also).
Like you, I would love to get a full official Nougat EMUI 5.0 rom though.
mid May and NO update?

I unlock my S6 running Nougat with fingerprint and I noticed that on MarshMallow it did not require the PIN as much as it does on Nougat. I would say that Nougat has tighter restrictions regarding fingerprint unlock. I only use the fingerprint to navigate, partly because of this behaviour.

You bought the best tablet offered by Huawei at this moment.
Congrats on your new purchase.
You are in the right place. Ask anything, Share anything you like.
Many nice people on this site.
Whenever you have any issue with your tablet, please mention the full firmware version, tablet model. It will be easy for others to help you and answer your questions.
I have BTV-DL09 (LTE version , European ROM). My firmware is BTV-DL09C100B301. I just posted this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72048190&postcount=8 in another thread. You can have a look at the screenshots of Android nougat on my tablet.
Enjoy & you will have more fun when you update to Nougat.(whenever you are ready)
Stock ROM is very stable on this tablet.
Don't forget to click on :good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good:

Day 2 with the mediapad 3 and I am still having fun.
I am not sure what you mean by "full firmware version". I have Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) + Huawei Emotion UI 4.1. Is that what you mean? What benefit is there in updating to Nougat. I am a person who gets set in his way. I fought windows 10 as long as I could.

When I said full firmware version, I meant this -> BTV-DL09C100B301 (my firmware version)
BTV-DL09 is LTE version (supports sim) , BTV-W09 (WIFI only version) So full firmware version prevents ambiguity and unnecessary problems. The reason I told you is because there is BTV-DL09C233BXX and there is one more version which I don't remember at this moment. Each one is different because it specifies region. So if you have C100BXX and if you flash C233BXX on top of that. Then it might cause problems. So when you provide full firmware version, it makes it easier for others to help. Besides C233 has rooted version firmware available. So to know if you are one of those lucky people too you need to give full firmware version. To find full firmware version you check in Settings -> About .
Benefits of Nougat? It is beautiful, faster, smoother, even better battery life. I have posted screenshots of my tablet running nougat, that can give you a better idea. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72048190&postcount=8 By the way Windows 10 v1703 Creators update is really good! Fast boot speed, games are smooth, performance is really good. Edge is really good too. Cortana is soothing & enjoyable as always. I like it and totally recommend everyone who haven't used it. Both Nougat on Huawei Mediapad M3 & Windows 10 creators update too.
Hope you find this information useful.
Lot of effort goes in to typing my posts. Please don't forget to click on :good::good::good::good::good:::good::good::good::good: in my posts.
Thanks again
When I checked settings I find "Build number BTV-W09C128B003 " Is that also the "firmware version"?
How do I upgrade to Nougat? Seriously, could I run into problems doing this? With windows especially I kept hearing people complain of problems with upgrades. Things seem to be running well now and this is already the fastest tablet I have ever had by far!!!!! By the way I have Windows 10 now because older computer died and I had to get a new one with 10. Kind of like it.
Do you think we'll receive the update?
Sorry, but someone must start the discussion :silly:
50% yes, 50% no

If Huawei Nova or even old P9 lite got EMUI 5, Im sure Honor 8 will receive EMUI 6.
Ps Honor 8 should have EMUI 5 on start, we waited short for Android 7. For Example Huawei P8 still receives updates (security patches etc).

Its that what I said maybe my english is not clear.
Huawei support his phones anyway. We'll see soon, I hope H8 will receive Oreo
As you can look by screenshots, different sites have differents toughts about Honor 8 "Android Oreo" update. The German site says it is in list for a possible update, the other it isn't in that list (but they are not sure because they marked the phone as controversial) . Now nothing is official but we have to wait (or push) Honor to take a decision anout the future of this great phone. We have to understand if "two years update" means "two major updates at least" or just "we will push security updates and won't abandon H8".
I am certain we will get it, but I am also certain it will take ages to release. May be wrong on both my opinions though.
i created a thread earlier https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/andorid-o-honor-8-honor-8-pro-honor-9-t3633124
the chances are very less to get OREO
I believe the most important question is not whether we will receive EMUI 6.0 (which is a possibility according to some sites: https://newsnexa.com/tech/huawei-android-8-0-update-emui-6-rom/ ) but whether EMUI 6.0 will implement Project Treble:
https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2017/05/here-comes-treble-modular-base-for.html
Essentially Project Treble (which will be enabled on phones shipping with Oreo) will allow the "Windows Update for Android", receiving security (and possibly other) updates via Google and not via the manufacturer. Or at least allow Huawei to implement said updates faster. Without it, Android 8.0/EMUI 6.0 will be the last useful "official" upgrade for our phone.
In any case, I won't hold my breath..
Here's the information from the Chinese forums
https://forum.xda-developers.com/picture.php?albumid=14397&pictureid=56089
https://forum.xda-developers.com/album.php?albumid=14397&pictureid=56090
As far as it's true, I do not presume to affirm, but judging by the screen and the crooked translation, there is hope to get an update to EMUI 6.0 based on android 8.0 at the beginning of 18.
I think it isn't true...first the "oreo" logo present here replaced the "EMUI" logo that should be there. This can be easily changed by "Emui theme editor" with or without root. Second, the other info could be faked by any root user through build.prop editor. I think it is a theme applied to nougat with some build.prop info changed

Hey, everyone,
I just bought a new Mate 9 Lite [BLL-L23] and would like some help with how to make it my own. I am familiar with other devices - but, not the BLL-L23.
I am very appreciative, my friends! Here's what I'd like to know:
1. Does anyone know when we'll get Android Oreo (or, at the least, Android Nougat)?
-- I am currently running 6.0; EMUI 4.1.
2. Is there an official support forum for the BLL-L23?
3. Does anyone know how to root the BLL-L23 using Magisk or Chainfire (which is better)?
4. Is there a recent TWRP recovery available?
5. What else should I do to take full advantage of my device?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING, EVERYONE!

3. Does anyone know how to root the BLL-L23 using Magisk or Chainfire (which is better)?
4. Is there a recent TWRP recovery available?
5. What else should I do to take full advantage of my device?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING, EVERYONE!

1. I guess that it would be some months after update of Mate 9 / Mate 9 Pro, but in worst case Huawei can forget about this model...
2. Did not find anything useful
3-4. You can use knowledge of Honor 6x: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x
Specifications are close to be same.
5. It is better to change device. Mate 9 has lower community versus Samsung's S8 community, but Mate 9 Lite has lowest...

Strogino, I really hope that Huawei wouldn't forget about this model - because, it's not even a year old, and many people (including Android Authority) say that Huawei is a great company with great branded phones.
I heard that there is a beta program for the Mate 9 Lite... Do you know anything about this?
Also, I know that it's obvious that Samsung S8's community is much bigger due to the popularity of the company; however, I'm sure that many people are also fans of Huawei. The Mate 9 Lite actually is a pretty decent phone for the budget!
