Some users have leaked Mate 7 Android 6.0 Marshmallow screenshots on Huawei official Chinese forum .
It seems like they had connected their Mate 7 to HiSuite and received the B506 update there.
But apparently, Huawei is only planning to start Mate 7 user testings of Android 6.0 on 22nd November with limited users on its official Chinese forum.
So it is unclear whether there has been a fault of releasing the B506 version early.
As a new user, I am not able to post pictures here. Screenshots can be found on the Huawei official Chinese forum within the Mate 7 thread. :fingers-crossed:
Testing has begun...and year later we'll be on b589 and counting....
I`am counting on the first quarter of 2016 :good:
I won't update to LP and just use KK untill MM is out and tested.
From official Huawei forum:
New SMS menu, new battery icon(u can change from few) , new multitasking , also you can change dpi from settings
Build is dated October 31 - Closed beta starts November 22
What about tl09 or it's for gold version only?

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

I just started as a xda member so it does not let me post links. If you are a developer or just a member and you are interested in link email me to [email protected]
Do you think we'll receive the update?
Sorry, but someone must start the discussion :silly:
50% yes, 50% no

If Honor do want lie, yes Honor 8 must receive Oreo. XDA wrote some devices receive Oreo before end this year, probably only flagships, after will continuing with another phones. We will see how much is useful/helpful Treble project

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).
Rommco05 said:
P9 lite receive Nougat and EMUI5 (I'm was on beta testing) I think Honor 8 receive Oreo. Btw I have old p8lite and this phone receive every month security update... What is awesome, but Honor is a bit slower

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

Is it possible for someone to take the oreo build from the Axon 7 and tweak it for the mini or is that wishful thinking

I would suggest patience. Custom ROM development was just started on this phone a few months ago. The main dev working on it, tdm, is trying to get an official LineageOS 14.1 build (Nougat) done. It's not impossible, but I doubt it's easy because although their names are similar, they're two distinctly different devices. It'll be much easier if ZTE goes crazy and does an Oreo update for the Mini.
I wasn't expecting or demanding a working rom. I understand these things take time. I was just curious as if it may be a simple process considering the differences between devices. I have been very involved in the development forums and have been testing and reporting the builds as they are released. I am content with the current releases of custom roms.

Ah, the limitations of typed words. I didn't intend to imply you were being demanding. I'm not a developer, but I doubt we'll see Oreo on the Mini unless ZTE has an official release. I'm currently on Lineage 14.1 on the Mini and every build keeps getting better (with a few bumps along the way of course). I'll love it if I'm wrong about this of course
Sent from my Axon 7 Mini using XDA Labs
Tdm has said a while back that he may begin work on Oreo once LineageOS 15.1 nightlies begin rolling out or when the maintainer for the HTC One A9 builds Oreo for it.

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.
