[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] CodingAddict704:
Hi i had a question about the new Android Oreo, is the Honor 6X going to be updated or not ? And if yes then are all the models going to be updated or only select models ? I have a GR5 2017 (Honor 6X)

Model: BLL-L21 is going to be updated ?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
While honor didn't confirm anything, it can be upgraded to android O.

But don't get to excited, as it may not get it (like the 5x ended up with only MM)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Jax:
honor provided nougat update on honor 6x earlier than redmi note 4. Honor 6x is worldwide popular device they will definitely provide o update
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Ramesh006:
yes we will get android O update by the end of this year. but honor has to decide to do the same thing like they released beta version of emui 5 for testers or direct release. andorid O is emui 5.1 on the way.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Honor didn't confirm anything so far, so these are just expectations
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] veeru153:
I hope this is true
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Me too :).

I'll try ask honor and see their answer
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] xRevengerZee:
I got the same model as you bll-121 gr5 2017 but why doesn't it have any custom rom or kernels or any mods
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] CodingAddict704:
Even if doesn't get an official update i wish some good developers make an ASOP Oreo rom for it
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
It will definitely get it :)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] kruga:
Probably not going to happen - unless it is very easy to port from Honor 8 Pro/Honor 9.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
While your guess is on point (because honor 5x didn't get it), I think honor will try updating the 6x to nougat
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
I too think the same as Honor 6x is a very popular phone and it received the nougat update without much delay.

Honor 6x BLN-L22
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Well they dropped the 7 because of Vulkan and Google's update policy.

As for the 6x, I don't see why they'll leave it without update to oreo.

If it happened that'll be the biggest mistake honor will do this year
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] mind-overflow:
Guys, I'm a little confused.

GR5 201 7 and Honor 6X are the same phone. But what about Mate 9 Lite? It is the same phone too, the only differences are the shell and the brand logo.

I mean, Huawei is working on Android 8 for the Mate 9, so probably Mate 9 Lite will get Oreo too.

In fact, when Huawei updates a phone, the lite version usually gets the same update too. Let's think about P8 and P8 lite, P9 and P9 Lite, etc.

But I'm worried because Honor 5X stopped receiving updates at Marshmallow, after only one year of guaranteed support.

I'm hoping for Mate 9 Lite update, what do you think?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Following the record of huawei and updates, it should get oreo.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] mahrukhsa2:
I think it will get the oreo update as honor 4c had recieved two major updates too.. and if it dont get it..

Then there is honor 8 lite/p8 lite 2017/p9 lite 2017 released with nougat.. it will surely receive one major upgrade thats oreo.

And this device is almost same to ours only the difference is dual cameras and screen size..

---------- Post added at 05:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------

So someone at xda can port official emui 5.1 with oreo from honor 8 lite to our 6x.. :)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Porting EMUI will be difficult, as it isn't open sourced like MIUI
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] mahrukhsa2:
Oh okk.. then i hope n wish it will get Oreo.. as im planning to buy itt
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Wait couple of weeks, as nothing is confirmed now :)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Jax:
i think xiaomi is better in updates it provides updates for more than 4 year old phone
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
That's because (in most cases) update MIUI version and not OS version
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Jax:
but this is also good
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
An OS update is better than an UI update. Also EMUI is much better than MIUI since EMUI has machine learning technology which helps in remaining the UI fast for a long time. Also EMUI has much better ram management than MIUI.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] jerryhou85:
No confiremd news yet even from Chinese HUAWEI club forum...
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
Let's hope for the best. And according to me it will get as Honor 6x is a pretty famous device and Huawei must not miss a chance not to upgrade this phone to Android O.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
While it is good but, not as good as getting a new OS update with features implemented in it :)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Ramesh006:
Hello guys do google search for emui 5.1 for honor 6x and there is bunch of sites saying honor 6x is in the list to get emui 5.1 i already mentioned it in my previous post.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
But, EMUI 5.1 isn't based on Android Oreo
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Ishu.Sharma:
It will most probably get Oreo as two major updates were promised for this device.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
I don't Think so
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
It will get the Oreo update as it is also confirmed by Huawei and Honor.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
Huawei and Honor devices expected to get the Android Oreo update

Huawei P10( VTR-L09, VTRL29, VTR-AL00, VTR-TL00)

Huawei Mate 9

Huawei Mate 9 Pro

Huawei P9

Honor 6x

Huawei P10 lite
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] kruga:

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] kruga:
None of them are official links. In fact one of the link you pasted (http://www.gadgetraid.com/2017/08/huawei-honor-android-oreo-update/) says
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
Where as most others say it will get. Time will decide. Nd since I have a Honor 6x, I'll definitely love to get the latest build from Android. And I still feel it will get the update. Let's see.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
The same link says this too. Honor 6x Oreo update confirmed.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
From official social accounts/website or skmething else?!
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] kruga:
Any official source where Huawei confirms?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
Not yet I guess.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
Any official news ?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
When they say 5X expected to get oreo then, I won't trust them :(
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
It says expected. Whatever be it, let's hope for the best. ???
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Yes, that's all what we can do
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] oae08:
If honor doesn't update 6x to Oreo this will hurt them alot in the future and they will lose many customers
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
Indeed, I don't want honor to pull a OnePlus (referring to the 1+2)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] foxyspice:
Honor India is saying they will test the compatibility of oreo with 6x and is asking to wait paitently :D
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vsriram92:
Honor 6x will get the Oreo update via EMUI 6.

But it will take next may to get it.

You can take 4x as reference where it got released with KitKat and running saw update till Marshmallow...

Sadly 5x didn't support Nougat...

But 6x will be supporting Emui 6.

Honor chat reps have confirmed it.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Jax:
i will never buy honor if they don't provide oreo

---------- Post added at 02:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 AM ----------

Motorola is better in updates
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
There is a reason for this. Motorola uses stock Android, which is easy to implement and work with. But Honor has its own custom UI, the EMUI, which has to be tweaked customised and optimised to make it workable in Honor phones. This is the reason they take so much time. Nd Motorola is one of the best companies which provide time to time update without any bugs or so.

---------- Post added at 04:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 AM ----------

Seems to be a good news then. But I guess the update will arrive next year maybe ??
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vsriram92:
Ya... It will take around May 2018 to arrive...
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Rishav Nath Pati:
May..???? Seriously..??? I thought maybe Jan or Feb. Okay whatever, let's wait patiently for it. Till then let's be happy with nougat and EMUI 5.0.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] krouri:
May? By then i'll already be on 3rd phone....
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
May is just waay to late, mars would be acceptable
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] marrco:
may 2018? I don't keep budget phones that long. They better don't release oreo update for old models and bring to market a new honor 7x before the end of this year.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] krouri:
They'll do exactly that IMO.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
honor didn't updated the last year flagship honor 7 to nougat , then y this device get the latest update oreo, this device may get 5.1 ,but no oreo . My thoughts.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vsriram92:
7X will be released in China by the end of this year. Willl be launched in other countries soon after that. Mostly in the Time of December - February.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
Seeing as the Honor 6X was release around the same time as the Honor 8. Honor may release Oreo for it.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] PalakMi:
The 7X will come with Android Oreo (maybe), however, it is still unclear if the honor WANTS to update the 6x to Oreo or not
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
It is not like that. This is huawei emui, not miui.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vsriram92:
Nope.. It won't be coming with Oreo...
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
Any official news ?? Or leaked ?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vsriram92:
People who follow Honor long time can guess it.

If it is similar to stock Oreo, 7x would have got it... It's Emui... So it will take time..
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
Yes absolutely emui updates slower.

the emui is 5.1 is still the latest for only two devices and emui 6 is under the roof which is 8.0 .
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
I never mentioned EMUI or MIUI and I do know that MIUI is designed for Xiaomi devices.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
I am comparing that EMUI delivers very slow updates and only for choosen devices , where MIUI is fantastic.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
Thanks for explaining.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
Just hit thanks from next ,if you want to appreciate.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] kylesuo:
My S7 was on the charger last night and worked fine. When I woke up, the screen is black, and the only sign of activity is a flashing blue LED. I've tried all the hardware keys to reset the phone, and nothing changes. Plugging the phone into my computer, no device shows up at all.

Any ideas to try and fix? This phone was stock, and not modded in any way.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] KillerClaw321:
I've had this issue when my phone was in a deep sleep state and wasn't able to wakup, but a simple reboot fixed it... So I'm hoping you have the same issue

---------- Post added at 09:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 PM ----------

If nothing else works like pressing power button home button and volume down and then waiting for your phone to vibrate twice, if you don't see anything you have damaged the display... If it works then good news screen isn't damaged

---------- Post added at 09:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ----------

Worst case scenario is the systemui was modified and now keeps force closing, you'd have to reflash the stock rom through Odin. I found a wipe data factory reset in recoery doesn't work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] kylesuo:
thanks for the reply, unfortunately no matter what i do, the device will not reset. the display remains blank, and the blue light remains flashing. I am familiar with using Odin, and my PC does not recognize that anything is being plugged into the USB ports. Right now I have the phone in the freezer trying to drain the battery to see if it will start up upon being recharged.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Try connecting the MicroUSB > USB adapter that came with the phone to a power hungry USB device such as a USB fan, see if it is working enough to power the fan or whatever you connect, which will drain the battery quickly

It does from what I could tell, I flashed magisk and it was on there but the option to enable root in the settings was grayed out so not sure if it worked. I also installed the aroma gapps and after going through and picking which apps and rebooted nothing was installed when it booted up. I restored back to stock since I didn't have much time to play with it but it works for the most part. I'll mess with this later when he releases a updated version
