Really wanted to give this a try but i never got an ota and don't have the time to look through every post and figure out how to do.

One thing I hope they change is this stupid HEAVY IOS looking skin. I hate it.

I had a few people interested in the phone but when they saw it was ios like they did not like it.

Outside that I love this phone. Great voice quality, good looking, very good camera, fast fingerprint, good screen, and good screen to bezel ratio.

DTS is nice but Spotify could not find and equalizer. BUY VIPER AUDIO OUT AND IMPLEMENT IT IN YOUR PHONES... IMO
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
They should totally do but they'll have to add audio restrictions on volume ðŸ˜

http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...78/g104/v70993/f1/full/update_data_public.zip

This update optimizes the internal storage and fixes an issue where some icons overlap in the status bar.

[Optimizations] Optimized the internal storage for better performance and stability. Improved device security with Google security patches.

[Fixes] Fixed an issue where some icons overlap in the status bar, giving you a clearer display. Fixed an issue where SMS messages do not change into MMS messages automatically. Fixed a charging screen display issue when you lock the screen on an information input screen.

Update notes:

1. This update will not erase your personal data, but we recommend that you back up any important data before updating.

2. The system will restart after the update. This will take about 5 minutes.

3. If you experience any issues during the update, please call the Huawei customer service hotline or visit an authorized Huawei service center for assistance.[/QUOTE]
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ascertion:
Doesn't state anything regarding standby time. I wonder if it's going to take a push to 7.1 for that to be better than MM. Still, glad they're pushing out new Betas!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nitrowarez:
It's true

Well, we rely on the people whom enrolled in the official beta test program to revert negative feedbacks and bugs to get them fixed by huawei
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] blijoh:
Been running the beta for some time now, not had a single problem so far. Not sure why its still in beta.

Still the EMUI is abit disappointing. Wish they'd offer a pure rom aswell.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hachamacha:
I wonder if anyone can make any sense out of this site, which also has the b324 update listed, but at the top, in chinese (well, Russian, but the update.zip is for China) shows a Dec 17 version of 7.1.1 (emui 5). Here is the web link. I just googled the b324 update (using it's full name) and that was the only hit:

hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=frd

And hit translate to whatever language you like.

Does nougat have new features in camera dept.?

Also does the object tracking bug solve with nougat...

In mm, you have to enable again this feature everytime you open the camera

Also bugs with shutter speed above 1/10

Status bar looks the same as B320 and it's still 7.0

Possible bug report?

I booted into safe mode and it hid all the non system app icons, but once I went back to normal mode the icons didn't come back to where they used to be, instead they are packed together as new swipe screens (not using drawer)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] evilpaul13:

I would if I was in the real beta...

I think he means he is running the beta through unofficial upgrade methods and isn't actually a part of the official beta group.

Yes, the camera has new settings and modes features

Now you can edit modes by removing or adding Good food, Watermark, audio note and document scan in a plug-in manner.

Switching between main camera to modes and settings by swiping to left and right.

Object tracking seems to be okay as well as shutter speed above 1/10

Looks like there might be a new OTA on the horizon for the FRD-04

from: link Not sure how official the site is bit it does line up with the stuff found in the Firmware Finder application.

Date of change	Model	Full title	List of changes	update file	The size	A type	G	g	v	f

2016.12.20	FRD	FRD-L04C605B351	changelog	update	1486907956	OTA	1278	104	70841	1

From the size, it looks like a "full" version and not an OTA. Hoping it makes it to the FRD-14...

There is also looks like some preliminary builds for 7.1.1 I am not sure about the validity of the site, but the links do look like they go back to the hicloud servers.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ascertion:
Downloading now. I'll see if I can get it to flash on my Honor 8.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ascertion:

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ascertion:
How can I do that? BL is unlocked, I do not have updater app anymore. I have tried eRecovery and tried booting into TWRP (alas to no avail.) I flashed via 3-Button method in UPDATER.APP in /dload onto the B351 Beta from B162 stock. :eek:

Whenever I try to downgrade back to MM it says incompatible software. Also tried the B320 UPDATER.APP method. If I try eRecovery via WiFi it says it can't read Package info online. :eek:

EDIT: ADB is not recognized anymore either.

EDIT2: TWRP flashes on my screen whenever I attempt to boot it. flashes for a 10th of a second then 10 seconds of darkness, repeat. I might actually be unable to fix this...Tested the 3.0.2.0 TWRP and the 3.0.3.0 TWRP.

EDIT3: By the Gods! It looks like full restore of B162 brought me back to square one. Yessss via 3-button method.

EDIT4: It booted back up on the 351 beta. :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

Hi guys,

I am using the FRD-AL10C00B356 version (upgraded yesterday, it's the chinese version of the Honor8) and I found a little bug.

WIth the fingerprint, when we use it to slide the photos in the gallery (Settings / Fingerprint ID / Slide gesture / Browse photos), it's kind of buggy :

As you can see, the photo is shifted before sliding to the left or to the right. I didn't have this problem with EMUI 4.

Not a huge deal but I wonder if it happens too with your beta, and if yes, if someone can report the bug.

Thanks

Just wondering if anyone on the official beta could do a quick check to see if 360 videos are working with vr.

Just watch any of YouTube's 360 videos with the Google cardboard option. E.g.

(A national geographic scuba video)

Then click on the cardboard setting under options.

Thank you!

Did you manage to flash it over B320 via Charles proxy?

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hachamacha:
I just installed it about 5pm PST yesterday, so it's soon to say. However: I can say for sure that wifi is faster and there is much less battery drain on standby (overnight) than any of the prior versions.

Everything I've looked at so far seems to work well, but like I said, it's too early for a decent review of it. Seems like some things have improved anyway. ;;)

It seems that b360 has broken google SafetyNet Verification, which means android pay and other apps that check if the phone is "safe" no longer work in b360. If anyone else could confirm this, or find a way to get the info to the honor dev team, as it works in b320, but not b360.

I can confirm it. It fails app-store basic safetynet checker, and also android pay.

On the latest Chinese update from 2 days ago, from B175 4.1

Online music no longer works after the update.. says due to copyright issues and the music app keeps giving annoying popup errors because of it...

Screen brightness changes opening/closing some apps even when all power saving modes disabled, unless auto brightness is enabled. If you enable Power saving mode it reduces screen brightness all the time, however if you restart phone with it enabled then brightness is back to normal. So both power saving mode on or power saving mode off do not work properly. Stupid.

'Lower screen resolution' called ROG before does not work at all. Always 1920x1080

The settings icon in notification bar is stupidly small and crammed between 2 other icons, terrible design, hard to click it.

Imo, quick toggles are too small and too many of them.

Still has the annoying EMUI problem where taps don't register immediately after scrolling.

Not impressed tbh, some annoying bugs and design choices.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] skeeterfood:
Look at the touch zones as shown by turning on the developer options on my US FRD-L04 running b360. This is why the settings icon is so hard to hit. Why not include some of that space around the icon like the navigation icons at the bottom do?

[IMG="Screenshot"]http://imgur.com/TqPZN9sl.png[/IMG]

The inability to click things until a bit after they stop scrolling drives me crazy!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] spix123:
Yeah, don't understand why they can't fix these issues. If you look at any video with EMUI on youtube you always see people missing touches constantly because of it.

What is your music app version, will try replace the Chinese one with international if I can find the apk.
