Latest OTA News

We learned from HUAWEI that, in this month, November 2014, there will be a significant OTA, featuring dual Android systems. It is possible that you can keep the original EMUI 3.0 and another customized Android system. Further news to be released by HUAWEI soon.
Note: this feature may only be available for the Chinese MT7-TL10 and MT7-TL00 versions.

Wow, im sure huawei was inspired by lenovo vibe z2 pro's dual system: vibe ui and google stock android.

@getmobilephone Very interesting! Where do you get this info? Can't find anything about this.

Will huawei upgrade it to Marshmallow??

Was wondering if Huawei has announced that they will upgrade Honor 7 to marshmallow. I have never used any Huawei device and am interested in Honor 7 so want to know how is Huawei in terms of SW upgrades etc. Does anyone in here has any experience of previous Huawei devices. I am really keen to know this as ROM development and SW upgrades are probably the most important aspects of a device's future.

Yes all Huawei flagships will get updated, while non flaships will get at lesser priority as well..
But they won't release as quick.. Rather depending on stability of the new android itself the update will delay and they will release it timed with release of their next flagship. So somewhere from January 2016 to May 2016.. That said, since Huawei is manufacturing this year's nexus things might be different.

As Warea said, we'll have the update.
I think google is going to surprise us with this new Android version, doing a global release for a lot of devices on Day 1.
Rumor says that Samsung has already the update ready for S6/S6Edge/Note4, .... And LG too. It's possible that this year, Google worked with manufacturers to make a global release for Android M because one of the things that Apple users are proud of is that every iOS device is updated at the same time with the same version. I think Google wants to fix that with Android.
We'll see !

is possible, but i doubt it, because on every android version, huawei must include emui new version, and they're veeeery slow making updates . honor 6 waiting lollipop yet in european version, and android m launches at end of this month...

no news yet on android 6, but the chinese editions of honor 7 are getting android 5.1 beta tests. http://cn.club.vmall.com/thread-4989272-1-1.html

Huawei updates really fast. They should release emui 4.0 marshmallow for honor 7 earliest by 2017 or maybe 2018 around the time they release the lollipop source code for honor 6.

If you look at last year most of phone brands were quick to announce upgrades to lollipop but they delivered only 2nd quarter of this year, while the few who updated quick were left with lollipop bugs.
I'm in no hurry to android 6 because many of the features are already on emui.. So I rather prefer a properly optimized and bug free update, plus significant changes on emui enough to make it feel like an update.

Honor 6
Let's look at the good, the bad and the horrible worst..
The GOOD -
good built up design and hardware
At good price...
Awesome high end specs
Smooth working never lags
Charges superfast..
It's been a year to own a huawei honor 6 and it's still the same as newly purchased.. Quite happy with the product and fully satisfied And I'm upgrading to honor seven.. Just go for it. N its the best available in the market at this stage
The BAD-
-NO SOFTWARE UPDATES needs some improvements in software but no updates provided in India secondly no OTA updates you need to stress yourself to know how exactly to download and install softwares.
-Delayed updates... We hear Google talking about Marshmallow where as lollipop is on the verge and honor devices still running on kitkat.. Yes, lollipop updates were provided to download and install but manually and bro it's time for marshmallow and we here were dying to receive lollipop (stable) yet..
-Indian versions are not provided with the features available to Chinese versions.. Not 64gb storage available no dual Sim available
-Cloud storage available only in China
For honor 7 I guess marshmallow would be available in next year Q1
The horrible WORST -
It's not at all a loyal brand
I can purely tag Huawei as "use and throw" device because,
-WORST customer service support
If anything happens to the device after purchasing it... You just need to dump it in the garbage bin (service centre) without having a hope of recycle and getting it back so just forget the past and look for a new one..
So if you wanna avoid such circumstances you got to handle with care
Else it works great smooth efficient.. User friendly... Great specs and awesome built..
So if you are a person frequently updating your handset go for it.. But if you are a long term user suggest you to go for some good branded devices..
Just my opinion.. And no offence meant.. Sorryyyy

My newsfeed showed me following page.
http://www.themobileindian.com/news...et-Android-6.0-Marshmallow-Update-in-Jan-2016
don´t know how credible this is and whether it also affects the other H7 versions.

No.... I received one update that was for emui 3.0 that's all and I hear lots of people updating their firmware but they do that manually.. And not OTA update so I get stuck as I didn't know how to do such updates manually..
But honor 7.. Marshmallow beta would be available from Jan I suppose..

What I feel is.. It's pointless in waiting for M update because it's skin emui 3.0 takes it all over the material design and I feel emui is awesome if they keep updating emui..
The lollipop update in honor 6 didn't have much change as the design would remain emui..

Except the ota for the honor 6 & 6+ went out already. So again, saying it had no updates is nonsense.

Sorry sir It may be nonsense for people having technical knowledge
And I'm sorry but I forgot to mention earlier that all the firmware updates were never officially by Huawei for "h60 L04" model (Indian variant) if you check out the official website of honor India there are no updates but when you check updates for Chinese model then you will find many software updates on their official site for honor 6 but none of them would end with model "h60 L04"
So on that part I told that there are no updates

Honor confirmed on twitter that the Honor 7 will be updated to 6.0 in Q1 2016.
Date not confirmed for the 6+.

PLK-XX is Honor 7 where XX stands for different regional versions. It's the same with P8, the EU version (L01) is not on the list, probably because this list is not intended for European readers!

I've put my name down (via Honor's PR agency), and once you give your IMEI you'll be sent an OTA update automatically once it's ready. I'll let you all know the progress, but believe there will be a requirement NOT to share the code with others so please don't ask me to extract the files and release the ROM.
Of course, I'm sure someone will...

Honor 6 and 6+ wont get EMUI 5 - Nougat update

Saw an update from Honor India.
It has been mentioned that Honor 6 and 6+ won't get updated to Nougat.
Source: https://club.hihonor.com/in/techsupport.251/official-emui-5-0-android-n-update.11083

Cant we ask for emui 5 update based on marshmallow?Emui 4 looks so dull compared to the refreshed 5.I mean,why not,even the 2012 xiaomi mi 2 got updated to the latest miui 8(I think based on 5.1.1) .I guess we can make a petition or something to get the older gen devices updated to emui 5,based on marshmallow(that applies to honor 6,6+,4C,4X,probably also mate 7,etc.

Not surprising ...
Our phones doesn't meet the Google requirements for NOUGAT
****ing VULKAN api !!!
You can make a 1 billion signed petition, it's a required api that's not aviable for our Kirin CPU, Huawei can't release official nougat for us ....
Yes, we can make a unoficial ROM ! ... without Android 7 kernel source... lol
Despite Huawei published EMUI 4 source code (very late ... OK), there is only 3 usable custom ROMs for us (Modaco, KangVIP & MIUI) and only one for 6 plus PE-TL10 (outdated Modaco) ... I stopped dreaming about my device support ... I wait my 13th month and bye bye Huawei

F*ck the vulcan api,Honor 7 has the same sh1tty mali-t624mp4 gpu that doesnt support it too but it will get nougat(its officially confirmed!),so its up to huawei(the actual reason is that 6,6+,4c and 4x already got 2 os updates?).For real,lets make a petition with request for emui 5 based on at least marshmallow or complete source(for all devices that are confirmed not to get emui 5 based on 7.0,so we can get as many signatures as possible).I didnt spend 250 euros 3 months ago to get stuck on that ugly ios knockoff emui 4.0 forever.

Whatever they decided is gonna stay same. You can have millions of people in petition. Still they will have some facts supporting their decision. So nothing will change.

What kind of facts?Update to emui 5 based on marshmallow seems right to me,considering that the phone already got 2 main updates.If huawei wants to be truly one of the top brands in the world improving their software support wouldnt be a bad decisison.

Giving VoLTE update itself is not confirmed for Honor 6 and 6+. Then how can we expect EMUI 5 ?
Seems that Huawei is satisfied on what it is currently.

Wait really?I thought VoLTE is confirmed since kirin 920 supports it,also I read somewhere in the indian honor forum than they are working on volte update.
I think they need to make a change at some point.Honor 6 deserves to get emui 5,it was a huuuge step forward from honor 3 and its hardware is still powerful today.Also huawei announced that it wants to surpass apple's share in the phone market in the next 2 years.

VoLTE is supported by processor. But still they are busy with their newer devices. They will consider 6 and 6+ once they get free.

Yes. But it is not confirmed by Honor.
Honor 7 is also in the same dilemma state of Honor 6 after the latest announcement.
But Honor 6 has completed its 2 years support. So even if they think of giving the update, it will be the last priority.

The solution? It's easy to enter facebook and speak with Honor in your chat and ask if honor6 / 6 + will receive emui 5.0, and wait for your response.

But currently Honor 6 supports the following LTE bands: LTE-FDD Band 1, Band 3, Band 7, Band 20, LTE-TDD Band 38.
The Bands used by Indian Carriers are entirely different. Only one carrier (JIO) supports Band 3 that too not supported in few states.
So for a not so supportive LTE mobile, they won't bring VoLTE as per my knowledge.

Any news on 7.1.1?

Anybody heard any news/rumors on when Honor 8 will get 7.1.1 release? Also, is 7.1.1 EMUI 5.1 or is EMUI 5.1 a separate release?
Axon 7 got its 7.1.1 update last week!

Lol, theirs been nothing from Honor for the US H8 sense January. All that's expected from here is a security patch and that's about it.

I agree. I've seen no signs that Honor has any honor regarding the make believe agreement with XDA (and their customers), but I'd love to be shown how wrong I am ;

Really bad. I bought Honor trusting they will be better at updates. If they don't, then it's to break that trust. OnePlus seems better off now in updates as well (along with Axon 7).

The L-04 is neglected if we are being honest here. The other models got that update to fix the battery issue on Nougat but then we have the L-04 still with a December 1 security update. The others have January...
Still a wonderful phone just that sometimes models get neglected while the others get the updates. However, I hear that they do all their testing in the Chinese forums where a 7.1 build is also.
Sent from my FRD-L04 using Tapatalk

I have the L14 really like the phone but Nougat and EMUI 5 has been disastrous for my battery life. Huawei communication is completely non-existent and disappointing. I am thinking of going back to MM and hopefully they'll fix the battery life. Unfortunately this has left a bitter taste so my next phone may be something else.

Might as well forget about 7.1.1 and hope it gets 7.1.2 at this point. By the time we get an update there will be Android O.

According to HuaweiEMUI page on Facebook(sorry I can't post url because I'm new to here), EMUI 5.1 won't be offered to honor 8 for now, however Huawei will release an update after June this year which includes fixes and feature enhancements.

Yeah updates for Honor 8 was a big letdown, my last honor device for sure.

So Honor 8 not getting 5.1 or get 5.1 after June? I just need them to solve the terrible battery life on my L14 on B360. This device has been excellent but their "2 year" to upgrades and updates is highly questionable.

To be fair, since honor use their own chip, it will take longer to update. But I'm agree, I expected better from honor, especially after their partnership with xda

Hi @breezyhill
https://www.facebook.com/HuaweiEMUI/
EMUI Unfortunately, EMUI 5.1 will not be offered to devices that have EMUI 5.0, EMUI 4.1 or lower systems for now. Some of the new functions from EMUI 5.1 will be built into a debugged, featured-enhanced version of EMUI 5.0 that will be released after June 2017. Stay tuned.
EMUI Hi all, at present we cannot provide a definite date on the release for your devices. However, the Android N (EMUI 5.0) updates will be available for Mate 8, P9, P9 Plus, P9 Lite, Honor 8, Honor 6X, Nova, and Nova Plus. If your phone is one of these mentioned, rest assured that we are actively developing and testing the N update to ensure the best performance for you. Thank you for your understanding and patience

I recently got the Honor 8, they need to push out the B380 update to USA users, at least give us some security patches.

It's bad that your having to ask for this as it was Honor USA that worked with XDA to promise two years of updates.
U should go onto Honor USA Google+ group to hassle them for your updates.
Remind them that it was then that made this promise

Oreo 4 mi a1

I'm trying to think if my xiaomi A1 has Android one on it or not .
I'm reading everyday about to many phone that are getting updates to Oreo but not in my(our) case.
Like I said ,I was/am very angry to see Sony , HTC , OPO , Samsung (and the list is so open) and the One's still waiting ...
Shame one you Google/xiaomi !
I'm feeling so frustrated!

I don't get it why you are so upset that we dont have Oreo yet. Xiaomi clearly said on the launch of the A1 that we'll get Oreo by the end of the year and I think they ment December. I think it's a matter of max 2 weeks until we get Oreo. And btw i would like to wait a little bit more and get 8.1 skipping 8.0 but that's just me.

When I bought the phone I've made it for fast updates .
I believe I'll be so happy to see the 8's in January.

None of them are getting Oreo update yet, but beta testers only and Samsung will get it next year. And like VerOs said, Xiaomi said at the launch that Xiaomi Mi A1 will get Oreo by the end of the year.

I think , it will be wise to call it Android Once instead One

Chill man. None of the OEM supported project treble after updating Oreo but google will push android Oreo update to Mi A1 with project treble support. Just chill its better to wait and have project treble option than the having just Oreo update

No idea why are you angry, we get monthly updates with the latest security patches as promised (and btw. we have KRACK fix sooner than Nexus/Pixel line). There is next to nothing so great in Oreo and some things are even broken, no idea why are you so eager to get it. I would prefer skipping 8.0 and going straight to 8.1 as well. 7.1.2 with Xposed is IMHO much better than stock 8.0 (had it on my Nexus 5X and honestly I don't miss Oreo at all).

Keep dreaming mate. There's no way to skip it straight to 8.1 . Do you have a source? They are so slowly making the Oreo update and you're wishing to 8.1 ?I'll bet the 8.1 will be ready in spring 2018

I said I would prefer it, not that it's going to happen. In each case, official statement was that we will receive regular monthly security patches, which is happening. Oreo was promised before end of 2017 and as far as I see in my calendar, there is one month remaining. So..stop being angry and enjoy almost bug free Nougat with Xposed while you wait for Oreo. Or just purchase Pixel..

Absoultely agreed mate. I have tested Oreo on several devices, on my Mi4w in a very stable stage. But there is really nothing special about Oreo. A good, stable and cute 7.1.2 is always better than a half-baked 8.0.

Google is not the one pushing the update. Xiaomi is. Might want to know who is pushing an update before you tell someone to chill
