P9 official Nougat rolling out - Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion

guys, im from the Philippines and we have a facebook group for P9 and P9 Plus users, some members (P9) are posting screenshots of an update to Android Nougat to their phone without signing up for the beta program.
update:
if they update to B190, the next OTA they get is the nougat update

I hope that we P9 plus users have the same update very soon.

Still on an old firmware here with security patch june.
B173 No update
B180 No update
B181 No update.
OTA
So i think Nougat for P9+ is not gonna come for a long time.
P9 and new mate gonna get it first and then maybe P9+ get it...
That is really bad of Huawei.

So if you don't receive OTA you don't update ?

Be glad that u recived some OTA, i have VIE-L29C636 and never have recived any OTA at all, i was stuck on B103. I asked Huawei support about this and never got a normal answer from them so my only option is upgrade manually.

I just wonder why some people recive all OTA and some recive non? Do they push OTA by imei number or something else?

the main flagship has no nougat update yet, users of p9 are still getting OTA updates for B320. now i know why users are complaining on how Huawei handles their software. i switched from OP3 to P9 Plus mainly because of the camera, will be waiting for OP3T to be sold in my country and will switch back to OnePlus. they're getting good at providing support for their flagship, and a lot of rom/kernel choices here on XDA

OTA varies from country to country. Frequency of updates depends on your local/regional Huawei branch.

But that did not answer the question, some people with same phone and same cust in same Country recive OTA and some does not. Some people like me have not recived any OTA at all.

You may want to check CM13 for Honor 7.
Hi
Latest lollipop ROM for that model is B211.
You can download it from here:
http://emui.huawei.com/plugin/hwdownload/detail?modelId=171
There are two files there, one is B211 Stable ROM, and the other is Beta ROM 5.12.16.
You will have to update using three button method, and it will completely erase your data (BACKUP FIRST!)
After that, you can request update on HiCare app, or wait a few days, you will get B380 MM update, then probably B383.
You can also try Beta ROM, which works fine and it gets 2 updates per month. It's also on MM.
Regards.

Let's talk about: future updates for HUAWEI P9 Plus!

Hi everyone!
I created this post in June 2017 to see when we would get Oreo for our Huawei P9 Plus. We still did not get what we wanted. At least Huawei stepped up their game and got very good in the security patch updates.
However, I am officially changing phones to the Oneplus 6.
The Huawei p9 Plus is still a great phone but I really hate the ultra slow updates. I WILL KEEP THIS PAGE UPDATED in the future because I will keep my Huawei P9 Plus as a secondary phone... for now. However, I will not check for updates everyday anymore so I will keep checking this forum and once some begin getting a new update, I will check my phone again and update this page.
Thank You
WINTERWOLF
UPDATE 24 MAY 2018:
We are indeed all on the May 2018 security patch now with build 385!
Now on: VIE-l09C432B385, Android 7.0 with EMUI 5.0.3, May 2018 security patch.
That's the reason I will search other brand(s) with regular OS updates. Shame for Huawei...

Couldn't agree more! Wished they are good at keeping the firmware updates at least for flagships just like what Xiaomi done to their flagships. Outdated firmware for flagships really makes me wondering why did i bought this phone at the first place (apart from great specifications and its camera)
I was very Happy with Huawei (hardware side)
Now i'm really disappointed
Huawei P9 Plus was my first Huawei Phone. When I purchased it somewhere August 2016, I feel very exciting of the quality of the phone. However, day after day, feel that Huawei very slow in release the phone firmware even Huawei P9 was one of their best selling phones. Huawei seems don't care of the software development and continue support of its phones.
What can we do? My next phone will not be Huawei.
I saw vie-l29c636b382 on firmware finder. anyone try yet?
I tried by using proxy method. Not working since the file not signed by Huawei yet. You can do it if you have rooted by using TWRP method.

It's still beta. So you'd have to be on the beta list to get it.
You can install it using Nocheck recovery, but you need an unlocked phone for that.

It is a beta. GSMArena is mistaken, and they are citing a blog named GetDroidTips that itself found the beta firmware from FirmwareFinder. GetDroidTips mailed a bunch of websites (us included) claiming that the stable update was rolling out. Guess they fooled a bunch of websites.

No, and Honor support said they have no information if the USA model will ever receive it. I'm thinking it will never come. Another user said support told him the updates for the USA and Canada are over for the 7x and View 10.
But can we update USA firmware from firmware Finder? So I can do mine and forget about OTA

Nope, you can no longer do that with Firmware Finder. We are stuck until they release it, which is seeming more and more less likely. Honor USA is just giving a standard BS answer. I think US support is done.

Thanks

The ota is downloadable through the app. Then you go to system updates then press menu and select local then pick the file. You could also rebrand to an eu or global firmware this way

Thank you I will give this ago if the OTA doesnt come soon.
Performance took a slight hit coming from 10.0.9 for me. Don't bother, you're not really missing much.

Download to your phone from the official update UK website. The instructions are at the bottom of the page.
