Hopefully someone can help me. I recently purchased an Honor 7 in the UK so I assume I have the EU version. I have noticed on a few forums that people are getting OTA's for version B180. I have tried checking for updates via the settings menu to no avail. My phone is running B121. Am I stuck on this till MM or is there an update available that I should have received.
Don't panic, I'm in the UK on B121. We'll get the ota update in the next week or 2
That's fine then. Thanks for the help.:good:
Just download the updates and do them manually, the instructions are in the getting started thread above. I am in the UK was running 121 but am now on 180, just be careful and follow the instructions to the letter.
You can either wait for the full Marshmallow version when it comes on OTA, but if you want, you can update from B121 to B140, then to B170, and finally from B170 to B180.
It'll give you a few more features (such as pro-camera mode) and some security patches.
I got OTA from B121 to B130, but no OTA further on from there, so I manually went from B130 -> B140 -> B170 -> B180.
I'm in the UK as well and I got OTA from B313 to B320. Not sure I see any improvements, though!
edit: I am not a beta tester, I just uploaded manually up to B313. Never unlocked, never rooted the phone.

If you update to B180 will they release an OTA that goes from B180 -> Marsh mellow directly? Or will I have to flash any intermediate updates?
This is all speculation but I was wondering if anyone knew, many thanks.
I think there will be a full Update file and also an ota from b180 to mm because all other releases greater than b180 are beta firmwares...that does not make any sense for me to force a stable user to intermediate Update to a beta and than to a final release.
Yes there will be a full update package from 121 to MM released. On the French honor site it has a European zip file for honor 7 which contained both packages inside it with instructions how to update depending which software you were currently on. It was a beta package so I decided to wait for the official as it is only another week to wait. It is annoying how honor 7 in Europe are getting ota updates to 180 when people in the uk seam not to. Plus I want to do a full fresh install of MM to make sure it's a clean install on my phone and no chance of bugs ect.
Just received ota B180 in the UK , so MM is on its way.
I got my Uk Honor 7 in September and it came with B100 and to date I have not had any updates, it is strange that some people in the Uk say they get OTA updates and others here get nothing.
numbnutsuk - what was yours on before you got your update today?
Thanks

My phone was on B121, and is currently downloading the 180 update....
I think mine was one of the early ones delivered to the UK as it came with B100, I have seen several posts on here where people are stating theirs came with B121 which I think were delivered at a later date, I could have updated mine via the links provided as I use to do manual AOSP updates with my Samsung S3, but was not able to use my Lloyds bank app and a few other apps, so I decided to keep my Honor 7 with official updates only. but may have to rethink that if we don't get an update soon.
Just received B180 update notification. Hopefully will fix a couple of issues.

Mine was on B121 mate.
Is your model PLK L01?
Try sticking this in your dload folder

B121 update zip
numbnutsuk - thanks for the link, yep, I decided to get on with it and it installed fine from your link and then my phone has just downloaded the B180 OTA and its installing as I type this, hopefully my bank apps will still work ok, they should as its an official OTA update.
If everything works out ok I will update my wife's phone (Honor 7)
Thanks for your help, cheers
Your welcome.
Good to hear, it should not wipe your phone so everything should still be working as before.
Let's just hope official MM is next week.
Everything is working fine now on B180, all my apps including the bank work fine, cheers

I'm exactly the same, got an early one with B100..... When will mm arrive?
Create a folder on your SD called dload and stick the above zip into it then update manually through the update app on your phone. Reboot and it will ota update to 180. I think the MM update will be released the end of this week!
It's 6 weeks since b130 was released & I haven't received the update. I have to assume b130 has been pulled by Honor. I see at least one EU owner has received b150 via OTA.
I'm having random reboots and touch screen issues & need to install the latest firmware to see if these issues are software or hardware related.
Does anybody know when b130 will be released OTA for all EU owners?
Oops...should be when b150 will be released
Just bought mate 10 pro. It's android 8.0.0 with 1. January 2018 security update. Is this really latest update (i'am in Switzerland)?
It should have at least march update. Or am I wrong?
It's not. Check out Firmware Finder - it's an app which fetches all the firmwares on the Huawei servers and makes it available to you. There are tutorials everywhere.
welcome to the huawei world, bought my phone 2 weeks ago and im scared about updates either, my phone came with December/2017 security pacth and the march was on in Firmware Finder.
Install an app called Firmware Finder in the play store. This will auto recognize your phone firmware, and you will be ablle to test with your IMEI if the versions over there will work on your phone. I got the march now!
my USA version just updated to April Security updates. BLA-09 80.0.0.112 (c567)
Ok, thanks. Now I'm on 137 firmware with march update.
But this app is dangerous. First it wanted to install single SIM update on my dual SIM phone.
I had to completely wipe my phone to get rid of this update
I know all of you guys are aware of the per regional updates
I'm still stuck on update 142
I've used firmware finder 2 months ago to force the update to 144
The app doesn't seem to be working and theres been a new update some weeks ago but i haven't been able to update
Is there any other method of forcing updates not being firmware finder for mobile, i haven't given the pc version a shot yet.

Why firmare update for this month is missing? Until now at 5 of every month mi A3 with global firmware have received a firmware update including at least a security patch: this month none has received the update. Google has released October security patch but mi A3 (an Android One phone) did not benefit from this update. does anyone know the reasons?
android 10
Maybe it will be getting android 10 this month thats why it takes too long
