[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
I talked to Honor support and they didn't even know which is the latest firmware for HONOR 8. I had to educate them on firmware versions and after a request they uploaded b160 firmware on Honor website.

The international support team even know about vulkan and stuff that was coming in EMUI 5 long ago. Indian support team is horrible, uneducated and dumb. Just my opinion! And I'm really disappointed by the kind of service they provide.

Tried with a trick as told by a Dev of firmware finder and got update.

Download telegram app+ firmware finder app from play store. Firmware finder app will have an airplane at the right top click it and you'll be added to a group in telegram. In that group there's a pinned post which guides us how to get update. Thanks a lot to that Dev. :)

I tried the trick you mentioned but it didn't happen for me :(. Can you list it again?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] amznano:
I tried all the steps. Didnt happen the first three times. Then I downloaded the fourth file in firmware finder and it started downloading the update. Both times, it couldn't install because it said it couldn't verify it during installation. ? I guess I'll just have to wait for the official update. Which file did you use from firmware finder?

---------- Post added at 03:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 AM ----------

You mentioned that you had to ask the honor support guys to upload the update on their site. How did you do that?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
Oh sorry I should have quoted that before. Choose the third one in the list that shows the changelog information. First two links don't work and show no changelog information because they're broken.

I asked Honor guys over the HiCare app. Last time I asked them to upload b160 and they did in two days. I hope they'll upload nougat very soon too. :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] mithunraj2:
Its showing 1.4gb... when i click download full package its disappearing:confused:...
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] nani67:
Hi,

i tried it multiple times, but no luck...
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] mithunraj2:
open find firmware app with original wifi setting search for firmware.. in list select 3rd or 4th one.. check for change log.. if its shows changelog then you are good to go.. Click send firmware to updater.. and dont close app.. drop down menu longpress wi fi and long press your router name. click modify network.. add proxy localhost and port 8080 and click connect.. it will connect once again.. dont close it.. pull dropdown menu go to updater and click check for update.. you will get notification that new version is available.. disconnect and click forget wifi network and reconnect it.. then hit download and install button :)

Still one problem is there when i tried.. its showing 1.4GB where as firmware size should be 2.23 GB..
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
Try "Download full package" from the updater app menu. You should see 2.25 gb

Please follow instructions in the video carefully. I got it. So can you guys :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] mithunraj2:
when i click download full package.. whole update will disappear :confused:

then i have to begin from the start
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
Please follow all the steps as in this video:

https://www.youtube.com/shared?ci=vu1nOrKDCXw

I tried with 3rd link in ff app. And mine was a success in the first attempt.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] amznano:
This happened with the third link for me. I even managed to download the whole 2.25 gb package but when it came to flashing it and verifying it during the upgrade, it said it can't be verified and the update failed.

I spoke to the guys on hi care. They say nougat is confirmed but no roll out date has been announced. I think safe to say it'll take at least one more month.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] mithunraj2:
got it.. Size is 2.25 GB Downloading Now

Mine is FRD-L02C675B310CUSTC675D001 - 2.25GB FILE

the trick is.. add proxy settings before clicking Firmware finder..

Open your wifi Modify setting by Adding localhost and port 8080 and connect wifi

Then open firmware finder.. Click get the latest firmware.. Click on the 3rd one

and Click Send to firmware updater and dont close it.

Pull dropdown menu go to setting and update and click check for update

it will show 1.3GB file

Now click menu and Select Download full package..

it will give you 2.25 GB File :D :cowboy::)

(The Trick is Add Proxy before opening Firmware Finder app)

Thanks Alok balaji for the Tip and information :)

B310 is Full Stable one?

Every one is getting B360 on their device.

Including L04,L09 etc

Does B310 is final one india ??

:(
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
Donno. But this build seems to be quite stable. Everyone's b360. But firmware finder shows only b310 and it's been there since 20th of January.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Aniketkumar5676:
this rom is Official one

And we can receive further updates if I update like this!!!
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
This question you should ask to the Dev of firmware finder. And according to him yes, it's official one. They just pull otas directly from Huawei servers without altering anything.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] amznano:
Yup, I got it too! The third file is the correct file. Both the first two and the last one are corrupted. I tried with changing apn settings but it finally worked when I changed my WiFi settings. On Nougat now and it's running smoothly for now. Loving the interface of emui 5. Did a factory reset just to be safe.

Thanks [MENTION=6309625]Alok Bajaj[/MENTION] for all the help!!!

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

We should ask this to the people who are getting the update OTA without going through the proxy server.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] VenuGopalu:
good job alok :good:
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] nfaizan:
Hi all i did followed the step . After changing proxy of my wifi it's showing 1.4 gb instead of 2.3gb. the moment i did forget wifi network and reconnected to my wifi .. its disappearing and its showing no update available

Download latest full package is also not showing after changing the proxy of my wifi .
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
In ff app select the third option with b310. Don't remove proxy settings until the update shows 2.5 GB is ready to download.

Thanks! Not working for me either. But smart gestures and smart key features are working. I'm really conflicted because I love emui 5's interface and I don't really use hivoice. I think I'm going to stick with this... Anyone considering a rollback??

[MENTION=7092494]VenuGopalu[/MENTION] you got the ota update, right? It's B360 or B310? Would be nice to know ?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Christopher876:
Works on the L04 Nougat, just tried it and I have to say it is a useful feature. I had done no factory reset after updating or anything.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Aniketkumar5676:
I found pull down notifications it is working

Hivoice is working or not??
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] amznano:
Did you get the update notification or did you use the proxy method? Your build is B310 or B360?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Christopher876:
Got the official update notification and my build is 360.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] amznano:
You bought the phone in India?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Christopher876:
No I did not buy it in India. As for asking, I am guessing you want to know about he update inflr for L02. Well I chipped in to say hivoice works on the L04 because it might show that it doesn't affect all the devices or firmwares like other bugs can. :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] amznano:
No actually i wanted to know because it seems the update is rolling out for the L09 L04 builds right now and very few l02s have got it in India, if at all. I got my 310 via the proxy method and I think when the OTA update does come to the l02 it'll be 360 as it is for the rest of the world. Gonna have to roll back now. Ah well.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Christopher876:
Ah I see. Well you should technically get the update to 360 since that is an official Huawei update.

But yes just to be sure I would downgrade to 4.1 160 just to ensure you get the proper update and not the beta one.

But yeah I think the firmware finder picks up beta builds as well because the 360 I was on before would drain battery like hell before I got the official update.

---------- Post added at 10:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 AM ----------

Don't really understand what you are saying here?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] s@j87:
Hi, I installed b310 on L02 and used it for 2 weeks.

Got it from http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=frd + (charles app)

But the battery drain is more on b310.

So I downgraded back to b160 (from Honor website).

May be they'd fix the battery drain in b360 and then make it available for all. :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] amznano:
Hi,

I'd really appreciate it if you could list the detailed steps on how to downgrade... I'm very nervous about it and don't want to mess it up.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] s@j87:
Hi, you can safely downgrade to b140 using the steps in the following link.

If you prefer b160, use the steps in above link and download b160 from Honor website.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] amznano:
Just read two articles saying that FRD L02 is getting the B310 update. So now I'm wondering whether the official update also has the same bug. And is worth downgrading. Any thoughts?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
B320 update coming to India with some bug fixes. :) Soon.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Droiderr:
source of the info? I am really suffering on 310. Terrible battery drain. No deep sleep at all.

Just had a chat with honor care. The stupid guys have no idea about any kind of future update as expected.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
I've contacted r&d. And they said they'll let me know if any updates come. I had given this battery drain issue with b310 to them and hopefully they might have fixed it in b320. B320 is in test stage. Only a few guys will be getting it now. After that it'll rollout for everyone, if feedback is good.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Droiderr:
can you tell me how to contact them. b310 is a big headache. I need any update now. Nothing can be worse than this.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] nani67:

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
If change log is empty in ff, that file won't work. You can try though.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Droiderr:
its not that. Its exactly the same as the screnshot you shared. What I meant was, whats the idea behind an OTA that mentions changes only to SOS feature. That too bigger than the original emui 5.0 update.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
There are just a couple of fixes in this ota. Hivoice is working and battery drain now seems to be fixed (Have to check it)

There are still a lot of issues that was there in b310. Really not a recommended update unless you use hiVoice too much ? I'll tell more about battery in two days
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alok Bajaj:
Battery in b320 is good. I got 6 hours of sot, which includes lot of gaming, video chatting and watching videos in fb :D
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] pepelino123:
Hi, I know that galaxy A3 2016 has theorically an Exynos 7578 Quad at 1,5 GHz but there is a kernel for A3 2016 (khaon) that enables 8 cores and cpu-z see that as Exynos 7580 Octa Core before and after I enabled 8 cores, previously see 4 cores.

My question is if really A3 2016 has an Exynos 7580 Octa (I suppose it) we can surf on Internet at 300/50 Mbps if your ISP could bring. Anyone can tell me the processor inside A3 2016?

And if we have an Exynos 7580 how can I see if I am connected to LTE Cat.6 (4G+). I have 4G+ signal in my country.

Thanks for your attention.

Have a nice day.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tys0n:
I just googled around some and some places tells that a310f is only capable of LTE cat.4, other says LTE cat.6. Don't know which is right.

If it's true it's only capable of cat.4, then it must be regulated by software just like the cpu is.

Why? Because the Exynos 7580 soc is equipped with the same "shannon 310" modem as the Exynos 7578 soc.

Exynos 7578 - Octa 1.5 <-can be enabled Quad 1.6 / (cat.4 or cat.6?) Shannon310 modem on board.

Exynos 7580 - Octa 1.6 / cat.6 Shannon310 modem on board.

And in the build.prop of stock unpacked system.img of A310F it says universal7580 platform.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tys0n:
This app is supposed to detect speeds and standards in connectivity that is supported by the device.

Thanks.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tys0n:
The app is LTE cell info.

As far as I understand, 4g is same as LTE cat.4 and 4g+ is same as LTE-Advanced aka LTE cat.6.

Problem is that different service providers market their products under different names, and different speeds

so it's hard to know what you really get.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrkerr:
I'm wanting to modify my 6P to increase my usage of free and open source software, and increase my overall security and privacy protection.

Unfortunately, I still have some proprietary Google dependencies, so I need to maintain access to the Play Store and a minimal set of GApps, so CopperheadOS is off the table (for now). Also, I want to be able to stay up to date, so something like Replicant is also out of consideration. Usability is a priority.

Currently I'm using OmniROM, with Brave for the browser, Silence for SMS. ProtonMail for email, and DuckDuckGo for search. I've gone back and forth between OmniSwitch and Trebuchet for my launcher---I'm not crazy about either, but haven't settled yet.

I'm currently rooted with SuperSU, but I'm planning to switch to phh's SuperUser soon.

Is Omni the most open source and security conscious ROM that is up to date, and GApps compatible? Are there other app substitutions you guys could suggest?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] ak980:
Hey guys I had recently given my phone for service as it wasn't charging . The ROM with which I gave it was RR and when I finally got my phone back i updated it to the latest version . After updating I inserted my Jio sim inside and when I tried to call a person I found out my internal speaker wasn't working and the other person couldn't hear what I was telling nor I could hear what he told but I could call and talk to my friends on hike very clearly.

I had changed to a new ROM called the pixel ROM but the problem still seems to persist. So I'm thinking of going back to MIUI and I'm running on the latest TWRP which was provided in the RR nightlies thread and I wanted to ask that how do I go back to MIUI without bricking my phone and locking my bootloader nor using fastboot

Is it safe to flash the ROM via TWRP?

you can then flash only eu rom via twrp, it doesnt lock bl.
