Hey all sorry to bother you but I can't install the update for my OPPO F1s. System Update states it is the latest version although it isn't, when I press the "Features" button it says "No Version Info"
When I try to manually update through recovery it states the same thing. I haven't updated the phone before as it's never asked even though I bought it the week the OPPO F1s was released in Australia. As far as I can tell it (With my extremely limited knowledge) it seems as though I don't have an official stock rom on my phone although I've never tampered with it.
Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated as although not urgent it does worry me as I realised I may have bought a phone with some kinda of virus on it without realising and I've used it for a couple of years.
#UPDATE#
Turns out the firmware is oddly labelled but I figured out that the phone had been updated with stock 6.0 rom and the 5.1 rom has been updated since but the 6.0 was considered beta, hence so feature info.
Tracked down the latest 6.0 update I could find and installed it and BAM phone is back to normal with the plus-side of having a clean install. Sorry to bother you all with this.
Which firmware you have installed?
A1601EX_11.A.37_20190227 is it this?
Oppo Customer Care (India) advised users of F1s that no OTA update for 6.0 would be pushed and anyone wishing to update will have to go to service centre. Did that and it seems they too have installed the beta 6.0 ROM which says no version info. Version number : A1601EX_11_D.102_170923 (Security Patch June 2017)
Apparently the stable 6.0 update available for Indian users is version : A1601EX_11.A.37_20190227. But I am not sure whether it will update through recovery. Will try and let you know
i know two years have passed but im facing the same problem and i cant find the latest update of 6.0, can you link me there?pls

I was confused by seeing a new firnware version at huawei website places 5th of august 2016 that ends with C636B320 and if i google that it looks like it could be android 6.0?
There is no version number written on the website:
http://consumer.huawei.com/my/support/products/downloads/detail/ascend-g7-my.htm?id=86353
I tried installing it on my phone but I always get installation failed, maybe because my phone is from a different region..
Anyway would be great if they bring an official android 6 update for our G7!
The firmware you linked to is Lollipop.
Android 6.0 is currently only official in Turkey and China, but we are still waiting for the European version to be released.
Unfortunately, we don't know how long we will need to wait for it, if it is ever released.
Also, you are correct that you are unable to install the update since you are only able to install updates from your own region, or carrier (if your device is branded).
Ok I see, a download link of 6.0 is availible on this site, but will probably not work because of different region..
But I will try it, i'm dowloading it now.
Was it successfull? I am still waiting for this update to be released for european devices.
Hello everyone, i was wondering why my Nova Plus didn't get so far the update for EMUI 5.0. I saw in many other posts that other users received Nougat since Q1 2017, OTA. Since the phone doesn't seems to be widespread, i couldn't find info from other possessors about their firmwares anywhere on the net.. so here i am asking .
My phone is stock, never rooted nor unlocked, and i didn't found any recovery/ROM compatible with it here on XDA.. not to mention the warranty, which i wouldn't void until some cool Oreo firmware comes out (i wonder if it will ever happen..why such a great device comes with such few custom firmwares? ).
I even tried via HiSuite, but no updates at all. Should I try with a factory reset, or should I simply wait for an incoming OTA?
I apologize for the repeatitive thread, but you guys are great and I'm sure you'll have some good advices
Thank you

Solved through firmware finder app on the play store, updated via proxy.
Hello community, and specifically to those with the model and build in the title.
After a few weeks of checking firmware finder, I discovered that it says it is now suitable and possible to update to B358.
I was on B357 until today and I can report that I updated to B358 just now with no problems at all. I installed the big file first(it's 1Gb+) and then the smaller file after that (a few hundred MB), again without issue. However with the second file it will complete 100% but then tell you there is another part to download. Just agree. It will do this 2 or 3 times and then will finally restart and install the package.
I have done and so far so good! :fingers-crossed:
Forgot to include proof....
Hey has anyone with nem-l51 updated yet to build 358 ??? I did a few weeks back? Just interested? Please try to reply...

No, but I have installed B359 though with no problems.
Dit it myself. There's a couple more updates available, like 359, 360, 361 and even 371. Have yet to test these though.
Anyway, it's nothing but security patches in the end. Don't think we're gonna get features updates anymore.
I think you're right about it only being security update patches from now on. I recently installed the b360 build. This pretty much confirms that the honor 5C and P9-lite will not be in line to receive an official upgrade to Oreo 8.0. Bit of a shame.
Hi guys,
I made a mess... I tried to update to B359 but then by mistake I flashed the wrong recovery So option was to flash full update.app I stored in microSD.
The problem is that that full update was an older version. Anyway now I still have build number B359 but other information refer to older firmware version I actually flashed!! For example security patch is still October!
So I downloaded full update to B357, flashed but again build is B359!!
Anyone experienced same issue? How can I solve?
UPDATE: solved by downloading and flashing an update called "update_data_full_NEM-L51_hw_eu.zip". After flashing this build number was correct!
Thanks!
Hey guys, first time posting so I hope I'm in the right sub.
Here is the thing:
- I bought a phone from a reseller which was sold to me as an SM-G930F with Android Oreo
- When it came home, I noticed it was running Marshmallow, and with further research it appears that the phone is actually the chinese SM-G9300 & it doesn't allow OTA updates
- I got a refund but I could keep the phone
The actual firmware is G9300ZCU2APG2
So the question is: am I able to upgrade that SM-G9300 to Oreo? If so, do I have to install a custom ROM running Oreo, flash a european firmware (or custom?) to allow the update?
So basically, my friend has been on nougat 7.1.1 for like a year now. Even though the update has been out for so long, it doesn't show up when I search for it through system updates. When I recently downgraded to nougat, I immediately got notified that the oreo update was available. So why doesn't it show up for him? Also if I were to download the update and install it manually, his data would be safe right? I wouldn't have to make a backup since it's just another OTA right?
What version is your friend's axon7? I once got a chinese version that was flashed with global rom, and it will never get any update untill you flash the original rom.

Nah he bought an A2017G spanking new. He shouldn't have this problem. Also funny story, I recently rooted my phone and installed magisk and LOS 15.1. Somehow its model is now A2017U. Any explanation?
I second that question. Got one second-hand two weeks ago with Nougat 7.1.1. No updates popping up, when I let it search for them.
I have same problem. Android 7.1.1 A2017GV1.2.0B05 and no update find...
