February

Hello!
According to FF it was approved for installation a few days ago, but today the scenario was reversed and it isn't no more...

For me it has not changed : b402 has been approved without IMEI for a few days, but not with IMEI.
So, it can't be installed.
It will eventually become approved with IMEI within a few days, as it happened for previous updates.
It will probably be the same with today's b403, which I think will become approved in the beginning of next month, and so on.

Got it in Croatia today. Only security update of February. I'm shocked that honor brand is getting that fast security updates. if you compare it to Samsung which has 3 times more expensive phones and sell like millions of millions of phones every year, honor is really really fast with this, even Samsung devices got February security fixes one or two weeks ago. If only they would be that good with major updates. I'm looking at you Oreo. [emoji14]

Appeared in FF. Need wait 2-3 weeks when Huawei will approve it to all.
Looks like normal update. Has adequate changelog with many translations. Has 3 files.

Always use full-ota update (around 2gb). And there's no update with April Security patch yet. The one with March security patch hasn't rolled out officially too.
The April patch is on FF but neither that or march are approved yet
There also a newer build, b368.
And I don't think it's approved yet.
Sent from my Huawei Mate 9 using XDA Labs
Received via OTA last Monday (4/16) with my rebranded mate 9. Worked like a charm.
Updated to MHA-L29C636B368 using HWOTA8 without issue.
I think there are some optimizations included in B366.[Optimization] not like in B368 [Security]
B368 is officially out.
Also, there is b371 on firmware finder, which has face unlock feature.

Actually, thats what i said. 368 is already out.
The one that I mention on FF is b371, which has face unlock feature. So you don't need Magisk Module anymore to use face unlock feature.
But, still gonna have to wait until it approved or release via ota.
Btw, mine got 2 patch which explained the big size as i still on b362. Too busy to update.

March security patch for FRD-L04

The March security patch has shown up on firmware finder. We'll probably receive this in May :silly:
yup.. may in may or june
Maybe the poor UK users will see this next year...lol some of them are still on b394 instead B402
i hope it fixes the battery drain issue of B391

Still better than waiting for a lot of time, good choice. I rather prefer to update normally when ota comes from honor, at the end here in Italy they're pushing updates with less waiting time looking to other countries
B392 update (March security patch) also available thru FirmwareFinder app. Which means that we'll be receiving this OTA update like mid-May I guess.
403
Voices...
A technology site reports OTA of 403 started yesterday in Italy.
I don't really trust them very much, and -because of my production batch- I have to wait usually around 7-10 days to receive the OTA on my phone since it starts delivery, so I can't confirm

tecnoandroid.it/2018/03/26/honor-8-e-adesso-al-sicuro-disponibile-la-versione-b403-con-le-patch-di-marzo-327092
Well, the articles says in "Europe" and it is very general...that doean't mean that the update is already avaible in Italy. However, no sign of life in firmware findee, wich still shows "not approved for installation". I'm italian too and my H8 updated via OTA to B402 on 15 March so i expect the B403 to be released on 5 April and to obtaining it on 15 April
Pretty sure that update would come in May/June just like I'm pretty sure we'll get Oreo when Android P has been officially released to the public.
FRD-L09 here, i got a security patch a few days ago as well.
instead of fixing anything, it made my phone quite a bit laggy in all aspects including gaming and also now the battery drains faster and the charging time has also increased. this update has made my phone a bit of a mess. can someone redirect me to an FRD-L09 thread with such an update?
I don't know. My FRD-L09C423 shows that B401 and B402 are approved for installation in FF even with IMEI sending but when i search for the updates still says "no updates available" and hangs on B394.
April Security Patch is appeared on FF (B404)

Which model is this? For FRD-L04 that firmware isn't available.

FRD-L09C432 has B404 which I think is where that screenshot come from.
Still B403 isn't approved for my IMEI but I'm running B402 so not complaining.

I knew it wasn't a hardware issue this whole time. That's what they wanted you to beileve. I remember a long time ago another user was mentioning that his AR has been fixed with an update and that's when I knew that it was software related.

Oreo for Honor 8 is an one-off
No further updates appear on FF. b412 is the September 2018 update for EMUI 5, and by now there should have been an update for October in the works.
Maybe that's the end of the line. Oh well.

I guess you need to wait for b562 to become approved (by IMEI). Then updating via HiSuite should work.

I am in the same boat. Mine is SM-G950FD (UAE version) bought from US and using in India. I am still on October 2018 patch. I got a few updates after I bought it, then it stopped. :crying:
I saw that some people who had bought from one country (UAE in particular) had their phone sensors bricked during earlier OTAs while they were in a different country. I hope that is the reason they are delaying updates for our phones and not because they blacklisted us.

Just a thought. Did you come back to India after Feb 2019? I came back during Nov-Dec 2018. I stopped receiving updates around that time. Could it be that Samsung don't push updates if we are not in the original country?
