[Q] Honor/Mediapad X1 - Android 5 Lollipop - Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard

Hi,
Do you have any info about Android 5.0 (Lollipop) for our Honor/Mediapad X1 ?

I kinda would also love to know about Huawei updates, in my case for MediaPad M1. But wer are dealing with Huawei here (my first Android device ever was U8880...) and the X1 been only out since april 2014 and M1 since may 2014, making these devices barely 6 months old, i think tho, if we are not seeing official updates once the devices are ~1 year old, we aint gettin anything. As of now, my device has the stock firmware, that's Android 4.2.2 with EMUI 2.0 and not a single update available, at this point, even update to 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 with EMUI 2.3 or 3 would be friggin marvelous.

99% a hoax.
Few things gave it away:
1) It claimed to be from xda-developers, now I don't see any lollipop rom for X1 here, do u?
2) I don't think any rom for lollipop will be as small as 128MB, and in these days, I don't think any uploader will be splitting a 128MB file into 3 parts, unless ..
3) .. all he/she wants is for the potential downloader to complete as many surveys as possible! Any download that require one to complete a survey beforehand is usually shady.
Proceed with caution if you still wish to find out for yourself.

Please note that sometime ago Huawei declared a list of devices that would get Lollipop update. Mediapad X1 was not listed. So don't expect any upgrade to Lollipop for our device from the manufacturer.

August is promising
Huawei official, moderator of X1 community on the chinese EMUI website
He said they will start development on August to finish bu the end of September
Hope they finish it fast :good:

Dear even if Huawei provide lollipop rom upgrade to x1, it is not going to make any difference. Have you watched videos of x2? There is no difference in the UI of X1 with Kitkat or X2 with Lollipop, as both have EMUI 3.x. IMHO the real joy of having Lollipop is with the stock experience and with tweaks added from CM.

[Q] rom lollipop for ZTE

friends, no lollipop rom 5.0 for ZTE with screen 5 "?
I need it
Not yet.
I see this link.. http://www.rom-lollipop.org/mp3-0/zte-nubia-z7-mini-6492.html
not sure if anyone has tried it yet.
It's fake! Do not install it. You can brick your phone!
apologies, yes after looking at the rest of the site I realized it seems fake.
ZTE has announced Lollipop for the Z7 Max (not sure about the mini, haven't checked). A beta rom is available in the official nubia forums.
I have been buying phones from China for the last 10 years and I have to say this is the most regularly updated phone I have ever had. My expectations from all previous phones is to ensure it is running the latest code when purchasing it because you will never see any updates for it. So it would be no surprise to me that Nubia would release 5.0 for all its models. Will definitely be buying another Nubia when its time to update.
Lollipop 5.0
Use Google translate...

No lollipop yet except for beta testing, but a new update is available for Z7 Max, ver. 1.59.

Huawei MediaPad M1 (S8-301U) abandonment product?

Hello................!
I have posted two treads here about the "M1" i didn't get any satisfy answers. And main point is Every other Huawei products getting EMUI 3.0 or 2.3 update with android firmware upgrade but there are no updates for MediaPad M1? When i search M1 stock firmware it's very hard to find? It's very new product introduced with X1.
But what happened, i think is huawei abandonment this product. So bad.....!

But there is! :good: I just installed 4.4.2 official firmware on my s8-301l, which i found from here: h**p://pan.baidu.com/s/1i3Fxuh3
no issues so far, and it's much smoother than 4.2.2.
Thanks for your reply....!
You can find your s8-301L firmware here but s8-301U got nothing. Only i found updates for s8-301L & s8-301W only.

[7D-503L/501u] Lollipop 5.0 (soon 5.1 and EMU 3.1) available in beta

Hi
Ryan Orig relayed this news: with a month late (it was scheduled for september), beta Lollipop is avalaible for chinese X1:
google translate this page:
http://cn.club.vmall.com/thread-5634771-1-1.html
to know how to send your IMEI number, and then receive the beta of the first lollipop rom for X1:
7D-501uV100R002C208B011 (EMUI3.0)
7D-503LV100R002C208B011 (EMUI3.0)
It's not clear for me if the released is for october (folowing the 1 month late delay), or if the Android 5.1/Emui 3.1 is for october ?
I've signed up for the beta how much time do i have to wait to receive it do you think ?
No idea. I let you know when first non chinese signers will get any answer/push
Fingers crossed it improves my X1's reception. Very happy with my Z Ultra, solid reception, great screen and fantastic support already on 5.1.1 with the recent OTA update. HUAWEI and a lot of other manufacturers could lean a lot from Sony...
Still miss the 7 inch screen.
It's already push the upgrade to those beta testers now.
(7D-503L first,7D-501u maybe later)
some beta tester already share "update.zip" and "update.app" on cloud storage
for example : this thread cn.club.vmall.com/thread-6043036-1-1.html
(It's for 7D-503L Dual 4G SIM version)
I did not try yet,because my device is 7D-501L
someone know the 7D-503L ROM can install on 7D-501L ?

Android 8 with EMUI 8 for P9 & P9 Plus

Huawei P9 & P9 Plus will get Android Oreo with EMUI 8.
yes, perfect!!
good news, thx bro.
thxxxxxxxxxxx bro0o0o0o0
Let's hope for this
I have asked Huawei for the P9 Plus Oreo update, this is a translation of what they responded. Original message was in Dutch since I am from Belgium. I contacted my local Huawei support.
"We understand that you would love to have Android 8.0 on your device. On this moment, we do not have an exact date on when Android 8.0 will be available for your device, but it is to be expected on Q1 of 2018. Please be convinced that we are working to get all the devices with the required specs on the best software-update version, so most likely for your device as well. But when this is happening is still to be confirmed. We are currently working on the development for Android 8.0 update for the Mate 9, Mate 9 Pro, P10 and P10 Plus. When you will receive the update will also depent from your provider. Some provider tweak the update right before they sent it OTA to their customers. Please check for an OTA update regularly to see if there is an update available via: Settings - System update - Check for system updates."
I have a post dedicated to future updates. Check it out! https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/how-to/talk-future-updates-huawei-p9-plus-t3625111

You must contact EMUI directly & not the local Huawei Service, everytime local Huawei Service don't have any informations. EMUI 8 IS CONFIRMED FOR P9 PLUS, you can find also an article from xda site.
This is awesome, still a great phone that works stellar for me. And now the security patches have been ticking in lately so Huawei do start to look like the top notch they wants to be
This means that we are going to have project treble?

NOPE, DON'T EXPECT ANDROID 8 OR HIGHER ROMS FOR THIS TABLET.
No one wants to develop software for old ****ing things that aren't iconic or popular enough nowadays, everyone's either focusing on modern phones from Google, Xiaomi, etc.... or phones that were literally hot **** back then (like the Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, etc...)
Highest you can go is Lollipop (and maybe, Marshmallow?)

If your model is a 7D-50xx/S7-30xx variant, you can get custom ROMs for them.
For 7D-50xx (Mediapad X1) models, there's only a beta version of Lollipop from Huawei (and since it's a beta from Huawei, that means there must have been an official update already - go check your updates in the settings if your model is the 7D-50xx model.)
For S7-30xx (Mediapad T1, 7 inches) models, you can get CyanogenMod 10.1 running on it, but that is on 4.2.1. But since you don't give me the specifics of your model name, I don't think I'll be able to help you much.
hey may i ask how u managed to unlock the bootloader, i went through hell i have the 701W version but i can't find any proper solution.
