No. It's a staged rollout. You're just gonna have to wait for it to hit your region.
Yeah man, it's just rolled out by imei number. I bought mine back in first week of February and bought my wife's a week later. She still hasn't received the update yet but I got it yesterday early am

I just got mine but I bought it used but I went into secret settings menu and looks like it was manufactured in February. Still waiting for update. Mate se users getting update before 7x users.
Ahem. I just bought mine like two weeks ago in April. Safe to assume I'm gonna be waiting for this OTA for like three more weeks? ?

Seeing as the phone is 40K-50K Rupees I think it's a fair price. It's also a breeze to use.
But to answer your question I believe that the only other way out there is to use an X Clip (which is like 100 bucks).
What is an X clip 100 buks equal to how much pkr
Sorry, 100 bucks is slang for $100. In pkr it's 10475.
Seems odd the M9 (Verizon) hasn't received the 7.0 update yet. Any rumors out there on when we might get it?

it will probably never come.
According to Mo Versi, via email, the M9 is beyond it's 2 year life and will not be updated. Doesn't make sense since the other carriers received the update but it's now August and Verizon has no update.

It wasn't past the 2 year mark last year, when Nougat was released.
Latest I have from Mo is that the the Verizon Nougat OS is in the lab this week. So they changed their mind on pushing this update and hopefully it will come in a couple weeks.

I understand. I thought it was either a tweet that you could link to, or you could provide a redacted screenshot.

Here is the body of the email I received 8/23/17. So I feel confident that he's being straight forward. I just hope Verizon pushes the update after they do the work.
Hi xxxxxxx,
Thanks for your email. We will provide the N OS update for M9 on Verizon. It’s planned to go to the lab soon (had an issue we had to resolve). Looking to enter lab next week, so as soon as I am confident we will get technical approval, I will let you know when we will start pushing the update to our customers. Thank you for your patience on this.
Mo
Any update since then? Last word was two weeks ago.
I gave up hope. there is no update...
Never thought i would see the day.
Its patched it to the May security release which seems a bit behind the times still.
I was as shocked as you were, creation date 6th June, personally wonder why they bothered considering update content.

Standby time seems to be very much improved, a 2% drop over night and that was it.
Can I apply the update with my device being rooted with magisk or do I need to uninstall magisk first? Saw somewhere people using flashfire but I am not sure if I need to apply it from there as I have twrp installed. Grabbed the update so will upload.

Don't tell anyone but it was a joke, the UK was seemingly ignored for months then 2 updates in 2 weeks.

Some guy on fb said that by the end of December or at the first week of January, we'll start getting Oreo. I can't believe that but I may be wrong

Someone's grandma's uncle's cousin said on twitter that it'd be out tomorrow. But who knows...
Lol seriously people...
Hey guys,
I've been using my Honor 8 Pro for a year now, I really like it.
But there's a side to Honor/Huawei that I really dislike and that is the lack of software support/updates. I've been waiting for the Oreo update for months now and still nothing. Even worse, I'm still on B185 and check for updates every day and never an update available. We're almost in April and this seems like just lazy company policy. "Screw those 1 year old phones" or something like that.
However, I have been reading on a lot of forums that a lot of people in Europe (C432) have already received the update... What's the holdup? I don't really understand this rollout in phases and how they select IMEIs for receiveing the updates...
Anyone able to tell me what's going on with this? It feels like I'm in a Monty Python's joke or something!
Thanks in advance!
Same here. Looks like nobody in Spain had received the OTA either.
Same here, I'm in Malaysia(C636), still oreo update, although just received B189 update.
Has anyone in Sweden got Oreo ?
Try with Firmware Finder from Huawei.

It doesn't work because the firmware is IMEI linked, so once downloaded you can't install it if your IMEI is not in the list. And if it was in the list, you had had received the OTA. It makes no sense, I know.
Thanks everyone for the responses.
I've tried getting in touch with Huawei/Honor customer support and they're useless... No info whatsoever.
I probably will sell the phone and buy something else, which leaves me a bit sad because I really like this phone... No more Honor or Huawei for me. They're very bad when it comes to software/security updates.
Again thank you everyone for your input!

The update pretty good from me. Bought since july last year, received july, august, september, november, january up until february security patch along with oreo emui 8.0. Yeah i just receive oreo 2 days ago... its pretty late but never mind as its pretty much the same... The only best thing for me is the Game Suite app and can change screen resolution to FHD... Better games frame rate. I'm from Malaysia.
Sent from my Honor 8 Pro using XDA Labs
Looks like the EU version (C432) is the forgotten one, stuck with B185 from last September...
I was on B189 before receiving 8.0 in late February (C432). Have you tried to boot it without a SIM card and searching for updates on WiFi?

Yes. And tried Hi-Suite tool too, no success. I've asked in other forums too and looks like they haven't released anything newer than B185 for units sold in Spain
Since installing 8.0.0 there hasn't even been a security update. Are updates done for the HTC 10? 8.0.0 broke Bluetooth media info in my vehicle so I had fingers crossed for an 8.0.1 or 8.1. Battery life dropped a lot for me too. Time to downgrade or install Lineage?
I have the same question/problem.

I don't think anything is coming. We're past the two year update period htc usually promises. There were a couple updates for the Taiwan variant since Oreo came out, but if we haven't gotten those by now I would be surprised if we ever get them.
Taiwan got something

I'm wondering when we can expect G960U1 to get the pie 9 update?
Also, I flashed from U to U1, will that change anything for me? Will I have to download firmware with the 9 update manually or will it come automatically? Thanks!

There is no exact date for launching Pie on U1 but it will be there in coming weeks. As on locked phones they started rolling out already.
Terribly frustrated u1 owner bere, been waiting for months now. It was way easier to force OTAs when I had a Motorola

True that and i am just wondering why on earth i bought Snapdragon Variant anyway as Samsung only support their own processor first.
It's always that way, Samsung always rolls out updates to the big market carrier phones first and unlocked phones last.

According to Samsung, US unlocked phones should get it February 18.

True not too bad, only 2 months after their initial release (Dec 2018). :silly:
It was inferred by Samsung Care yesterday that I shouldn't be surprised with a March OTA.
Regardless, T-Mobile will need to be completed before us and they are still in the "development" phase of OneUI.

Damn, back to development per T-Mobile's website.
Yep, T-Mobile pulled their update because of problems. I'm wondering now if that's going to delay the unlocked update. BTW, the 2/18 date came from a chat someone in the beta forums had with support.
