A two-month delay for an expected updated is par for the course when it comes to receiving major updates from Google. Keeping true to fashion, the Android 7.0 Nougat update for Huawei’s Honor 6X was supposed to happen last March, but is now only rolling out this month to those in the US. Along with the usual goodies that come with the update, smartphone owners will also be getting the EMUI 5.0 so a visual interface overhaul will also be happening.
By this time we’re already familiar with what you get when you upgrade to Nougat: better battery management, improved multi-tasking features, replying through notifications, 72 new emojis, among other things. But since the update also brings EMUI 5.0, you also get a few other things that only Huawei/Honor devices get. The major ones include bringing a simpler interface with a blue and white color scheme, three-step operation 90% of the time, and a smoother system that will make it easier for you to switch between tasks.
The update also brings a more secure system specifically when it comes to user privacy, mobile payment and communication, and app usage. The task manager has also been remodeled, bringing bigger task cards that can be swiped and pinned. You can also now have two user account profiles within one app. Plus you have an app drawer option to centralize all desktop apps.
The update will roll out to all Honor 6X users starting now. But it will also be gradual and is expected to be completed by the middle of May.

I read from a lot of reviews that people are facing problems in the Nougat ROM which they downloaded from Firmware Finder or something. I can't risk my phone with that as it's a Beta release. I clearly made up my mind and was waiting for the official update ever since. By the way, I am from India and I just bought my Honor 6x like 2 weeks back. Do you have any idea about when will they be sending the update in my country? Would appreciate if anyone could provide genuine information regarding this! Thanks!
Wajira , Did you get Stable Nougat or not ?? I'm also from Sri Lanka and impatiently waiting for a nought update.
I am also waiting for the nougat. I signed up for the beta tester release but am yet to hear from them. An email to the Huawei team advised that since I am not from Vietnam, no beta release for me.

today indian version got 8.1 update. cant we get that ROM?
ive tried using vpn for china and mine still says system up to date ,mine is on 7.1.1 nov 6th security patch,i think its cos our phone has unofficial playstore app that it wont update. there is a mena firmware update which it says is for our variant on nokia 6 forum but nobody has said if it definitely for second gen ta-1054 ,if it is you could flash it and install all updates manually ,but im waiting untill someone lets me know if its legit has i dont want to brick my new phone
There was one rom in the nokia-6 MENA method, but I could not get it on my phone tho, also no reply on the topic for solution.
I sent back the chinese one, and ordered a global version from amazon.
But after a while there should be systems dumps, or updates to flash.
Anyone else tried flashing mena 2nd gen firmware from Nokia 6 link ?

it wont work bud you cant unlock the bootloader ive been trying for weeks

But try at your own risk
Mine survived tho, but no luck ob upgrading.

Did you try it, or?
I've tried it numerous times always fails log says cannot flash locked device
Any progress?
Ive tried installing the latest play store APK as well as China VPN and India/Netherlands as they have started to receive their 8.1 updates (apparently) but nothing.
Im stuck on 7.1.1 and the Nov 2017 security update.
Also, has anyone else tried USB/WiFi/BT tethering...none of these are working (AUS on Telstra). Has anyone else tried?
It worked fine on Oppo phone so its not the carrier and I have checked the APN info.
Another Q..
If the phone is unlocked, would you be able to flash the RoW firmware thats currently being rolled out or are you limited to the (not currently available) TA-1054 only?
Nokia Model: TA-1054 is this version china or global
got a TA-1054 here today in China. Updated 6 times all the way to 8.1.0 without issue.
once bootloader unlocking is available you can flash global firmware just be patient bud
@safron35. Yep..but my reason for wanting the update is so i get tethering. Currently at 7.11 all the tethering (wifi, USB and BT) on my phone is broken. I've had to resort back to using my Oppo until I can get it working as I need this functionality for my work.
@pola..Thanks for the heads up..I'll try connecting my VPN to a Chinese server again and see how it goes.
Anyone know what they use as a check/verification for location?
The ta-1054 is Chinese custom ROM if its on 7.1.1 Nov patch and will not update until you unlock bootloader and flash original firmware ,no matter what you try
Ah..got it. Thx for the info.
Another Q if that's ok? ....if it's had a custom F/W flashed this would mean it's already had its bootloader unlocked yes?
UPDATED: Official Android Pie (9) is now available for the WW variant.
Do you want the update? Read on!
You can download from here (~1,88 GB): https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE620KL/UL-ASUS_X00QD-ASUS-16.0610.1812.58-1.1.15-user.zip
You must be on WW 15.0619.1810.73 or Android Pie Beta in order to update! If you're on a different ROM, you may brick your phone!
Update method A:
Download the file - linked above
Put it on your phone to "Internal Storage" (root of Internal Storage, don't put it into folders like Download/DCIM/Android, whatver...)
Restart phone (Power button > Restart)
After restart, you'll get a notification, that a new software is available. Yes, install it. Wait until it's complete and you're done!
Update method B:
Download the file - linked above
Put it on your phone's SD card (this only works if you have an sd card in your phone - obviously)
Turn off phone
Hold down Volume Up and Power buttons for a couple of seconds (until the ASUS logo appears)
Choose "Apply update from SD card", choose the zip file and do the update
Reboot after done (or wipe data/cache if you want)
...or you can also use ADB to sideload the file, but I won't detail it now (unless requested).
About Pie notes
Camer is same as before.
Digital Wellbeing app isn't compatible with the device.
New gesture based navigation is working, new dark theme is available in ASUS theme app, new animations are also working.
Thank you for this information. The first method worked well with me.

That's the stable version released today for the Taiwanese SKU
There was a new release from Asus official website featuring the Android Pie (WW_16_0610_1812_58) like three days ago. It was featured in Asus PH and Taiwan, although I checked that two only. Although, it is unavailable since yesterday until now.
Is it safe to update this?
Ive already updated android pie with this "WW_ZE620KL-15.0619.1810.73-16.0610.1812.52-12051038-fota-user.zip" but it has many bugs. Can I update it again using this new update? Is it safe? Pls reply. If it is ok. Thanks

Is it safe to downgrade from android pie to android oreo?
Can I downgrade it back to this Version V15.0619.1810.67 Ive already update it to android pie but the problem is too many bugs. My apps has been affected too when I updated it to android pie.

The update can't be found on Asus official website any longer, this would mean something, wouldn't it? In any case, it wasn't WW version, so it isn't good for European Zenfones. Am I wrong?

I just got confused because at that time I was accessing several different Asus Website (Taiwan, India, Brazil, USA, Philippines).
Although, I was able to implement the update from
version _52 to version _58. And my SKU is WW.
But I really think I got it from Asus Philippines' official website. ?
Currently, on the Asus Taiwan official website is the only one with the software update is available when I last checked.

If you have the a505f model you can try the indian firmware (google this :A505FDDU4BTC4) but i advise you to wait for your region's firmware since it may be impossible to go back to Android 9 after the upgrade.
Here's the link F India firmware
https://sourceforge.net/projects/samsungfw/files/SM-A505F/INS/A505FDDU4BTC4/
I flashed the INS firmware, no issues so far. Camera is still crappy, and the fingerprint sensor is still the same.

Technically speaking, the first package was the Update and the second is a Security update.
I'm a little rusty on my Samsung naming convention, but I just went through my old files from my Note 8 days and it was consistent.
U for version update, S for security update.
Also the 4th letter from the end is another indicator of the version. A = OS at release, B = 1st version upgrade, C = second and so on.
So I have a feeling this new file is still Android 9, and is just a security update.
A505FDDU4BTC4 indicates Android 10 version upgrade.
A505FDDS4ATB6 indicates Security update for release OS version.

It's a shame and completely unacceptable that an Android 10 build released in 2020 doesn't have full camera2api support. It's something that was introduced with stock Android Lollipop 5.0!
Why is camera2api not working. Is there any telegram group of devs where I can request for the same?
Well I'm not getting the update... From India
I posted this on OP9 forum but OP9 Pro forum looks more active, sorry in advance.
I bought a OP9 chinese model LE2110, my software is oxygen OS 11.2.3.3 LE25DA (indian)
I want global version because this one has some bloatware and indian company cloud notifications that i dont want.
Is it possible to change it to international version? i downloaded the global one but i cant install it (local) because its a downgrade or equal to my current one. i updated to the latest version when setting up my phone.
The chinese version/model doesnt have wireless charging, so if there is a problem with compatability, can I change back to the indian variant?
note: I dont care about my data i can format everything, my old phone still works and I can transfer all data later.

i think u can as i have changed from EU to indian OOS - i couldnt wait to try 11.2.4.4 lol
But the key is it must be later version that yr current OOS which means u are on 11.2.3.3 to EU 11.2.3.3 it will not work - that was based on my experience.
Agree with u the bloatwares are annoying.. perhaps i will go back to EU once a newer than 4.4 is out.
So far, all seems to work. I cant comment for 5G as its not available in my telcom

Oh I just did local upgrade from India 4.4 to eu 4.4, it works.. So I think u can downloading and do it. Worst case, use oxygen updater and change back to global and revert
I see.. when you switched to eu 4.4, did it remove Cloud Service (indian version has this advertisement)? or Red Cable Club?

No it's not possible i was confirm about it from multiple experts even from lightweight tennis stringing machines experts too but it's not working.
