Nothing is found in the path of Honor 5X to Nougat. Still, some ppl do think that it won't be successful. So don't expect it. It might or may not.

chances are high,
because honor promised it,
our chipset supports nougat
and our device is being shotlisted
plus its the second popular and second most selling device among honors right now..
everyone knows these things, including honor,
and if honor, knowingly do such mistakes as not providing updates, they know their market values will be decreased..
so i think chances are high..

Chances are high. But the device should support it right ?
Hardware capabilities should should also cooperate to get the new updates.
I'm not saying that Honor 5X won't get any updates. Still I don't have much confidence for Nougat

What exactly you say by lacking hardware capabilities? I guess Qualcomm snapdragon 616 supports Nougat.

There are other technical things too contributing to it. We can't disclose it either. If it gets successful, then Honor 5X will taste EMUI 5. As of now it's not going fine. But there is a little hope still left. That's what I can say.

Honor 7X Kernel Source Released

This should be a big help for developers:
https://www.xda-developers.com/kernel-sources-released-huawei-mate-10-honor-7x/
Cool, a 4.1.18 kernel. Anyone tried compiling yet?
Expecting more ROMs for Honor 7x!
I don't own the device so I can't debug anything on my own, but if a few people would be willing to PM me then I'd be happy to make a kernel for it. I just need people to get back to me with logs so I can ensure everything works as it should. I don't think I'll ever actually pick it up due to its cost but I can help the community here to a degree.
No promises of anything but it's a start. I won't be able to do much until this weekend though. Finals are around the corner.

People have ordered the phone today i guess since it was the first day of sale..
Phones will be reaching out after a week almost so i think thereafter we ll be getting people to start playing around with their devices..
Thanks for the headsup! I am rooting for treble to build up an oreo rom fully functional soon..
I ordered mine since i burnt my oP1 2 days back and i hope the community response in honor series is also as good as it was there..
That's fantastic
That's really great..I would love to contribute in development..

The bad thing is that Honor can't force HiSilicon (makers of kirin SoCs) to release documentations of SoCs like Qualcomm do
I have the Indian version of the phone so if some developers can create kernels for testing i would test them..
need more developers for Honor 7X.. hopefully project treble would be of help

Is the Honor 7x an HI6250 Device because if it is, it's entirely possible that my ROMs, which work for EVERY OTHER Hi6250 device (Afaik )might work for the 7x as well.

BKL-L09- Will we ever get the updates?

[email protected]_USA
Respected sir,
We Indian Honor 10 View users have a question to you, "Are we going to get updates for our phones or not?"
And personally saying, it's the first time I'm using Honor device and I'm quite happy with its performance.
I've used a lot of devices and have been active on many of the forums contributing to their respective development programmes.
But here, I'm kinda pissed seeing the threads that are only for the BKL-L04!
AREN'T WE BKL-L09 USERS HAVING THE SAME SPECS AS THEM?
We need an answer to this since you're their representative.
It's a humble request sir, we too want to see stable ROMS on this Indian variant!
PS : this isn't personal frustration or some kind of offence posting this thing! I'm just curious, that's all it is.
Do not take this personal and as a request instead.
Thanks,
Kaustubh

I can understand fully why you would be frustrated. Unfortunately, I don't have info regarding update timelines for various regions. I only have info about the US.
You can maybe reach out on Twitter if you haven't already.
Already done that, no reply so far and furthermore I don't know who is the representative for Honor India.
Anyways, thanks for your reply sir.
It appears we won't get the GPU turbo update after all.

Oreo Beta Testing starting back up!

What's up!
Yup you heard right it's starting back up and if you're a beta tester previously for the Axon 7 Oreo builds you should be getting contacted soon.
Peace!
Kudos to ZTE for continuing this after that long stretch of downtime. Looks like they're doing right by us; I really appreciate this.
Right now it seems to be only for the US tho. Saw a post on reddit where someone got an email for US beta testing.
Sadly ztemobile.de is still redirecting to the chinese site. I really hope the site comes back. Or that at least the G model gets back on track too to receive oreo.

Are you kidding? ?
I'm guessing (maybe hoping) that that screenshot is unrelated. Surely they can't be releasing only a V8 update and not v8.1.
Seems like ZTE could so with some cross region collaboration with releasing updates. It's a bad practice not to make updates world wide.
I know there may be small differences, especially with modems but still..

I'm sure that patch was left somewhere in the update servers and since they're back online now, people received it.
I'ts not new per se because it's from March, so clearly they didn't release new stuff yet (also don't know if they started to work on the update or not). However, I have my doubts about 8.1... hopefully it's 8.1 and not 8.0., but we will see.

You probably right.
I received an email from ZTE a few days ago that read new Oreo build ready for testing. Has a survey for you to fill out. I contacted the person and was told , build is wrapping up inner testing and will be pushed to beta testers soon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The build is the last before final release.

Yeah it is what they says but the fact it is that probably you will need to be a developer to get the beta and to have a Chinese phone so don't assume we will get it straight away like that...
As long as they don't implement swype down to expand notification bar, I'll never use their stock launcher.
Microsoft launcher does it for me lol ?
Most of the launchers do this, I don't understand why they don't implement this.

Android 10 came out september 3. on google pixel first. Waiting 2 months for major update is nothing. Basically Huawei is doing best job with updates. Much better than most of competition.

Like all tech companies Huawei want to sell new phones so they will wait with updating their older phones in order to "motivate" their existing customers to upgrade to the latest and greatest.

I read on mate 20x telegram group, some got android 10 beta:
It locks BL in install process and one can't unlock it again by usual command...

Does anyone know why don't we get Android 10 ROMs on this phone?

So it's been almost two months since Android 10 release and still almost no sign of a ROM for the Mi 8 Lite. Does anyone have an idea what's so hard about building it? Or is it because of the small community of this phone?
Thanks for the answers
why anyone so cares about new version. what do you think that you will get with A10? new wallpapers, tones and new looking icons.
f you think that is so easy to create a build , than do it yourself

Latest intel the gsi builds work except for one simple but important thing, the camera. No one has been able to make the camera work, they suspect the camera is on a module of his own and hasn't been easy to make it work on 10

Custom roms will arrive before Xiaomi launches the official Android 10 update. I'm convinced.
