It's tested mate..have done this on 6X. It's just IMEI which plays role. I have got Chinese variant OTA, then Indian Version OTA, EU version OTA, BLL version OTA, US version OTA on same phone after I debranded so many times and phone was from China:) as long as you have IMEI, you will get it for sure.

Don't worry you will get updates.

I really disappointed with the Honor, and i moved to 10 or E mobile, even that is running latest nougat version 7.1.2. Also it is gonna get Oreo update soon.

Very worst company ever seen in Market. This is my last mobile from Honor. i wasted my money 30K with this ****.

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] P.K.Shivaram:
Still it has to be improved. we can count the changes easily like settings organization, navigation dock, PiP mode, Linked in account. and indepth OS changes you can not feel. Slight icon changes and Bloat ware for games.

One more still equalizer is missing, Project treble support i think so.

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] King_huzi52:
Received the update today. Its much better and snappier.

No double tap to wake still in the device? I could not locate it.

Also this might be a little off topic but some audio types does not play but works on my laptop. Is there a codecs issue with the device? I have tried VLC and mx player. With mx player I have tried other codecs but it did not work too.

Please suggest what could be done.

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] amulbaby:
Next meeting is in Cochin. The one later could possibly be Hyderabad. It depends on how many entries are received.

And yes, when the device was launched, it was mentioned that Oreo is expected by end of this year. So no surprise to know it again .

This thread has everything that was discussed in Chennai . I have made a extensive write up of the entire session in Pdf. Same has been shared with the Honor team for transparency and with R&D for faster resolution.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Many things changes from launch to actual device lifecycle. 2 major upgrades promised but honor 4x, 5x, 7 haven't got Nougat. Honor 7 was of flashing material.

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:

Thanks for sharing, indeed it was great compilation of the points discussed. I read all the points myself. It was shared in our meet up WhatsApp grp as well
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] amulbaby:
That's true. Things change . They do not have a definite timeline like they do for Huawei devices.

We can only hope they recognise the need of the hour. Easy to be left behind in this competitive market
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
And we raised many points in Delhi meetup as well. Hope they consider all the points

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dkionline:
Please share any thoughts about dload and what about future ota update. Do they get pushed via hicare or what are the needs to change that parts, cause of security or whats the real reason for that? What about downgrade, do they implement a downgrade button in Oreo, or is downgrade impossible then like on samsung devices?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
So what do we have here? :o
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
A discussion on Android O :)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
i cannot agree with this. after all, ppl can just disable it. i like it coz it is convenient way for me to do screenshot or crop sections of screen.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
But isn't it feel like you are abusing your device when in public. This was raised in Chennai meet up also and if the device dont have the gorrilla glass then who would take the risk of tapping it ;)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Never used this too. I'd prefer doing a full screenshot then cropping it afterwards. Fingersense works like 2 times out of 10. I almost need to punch the screen.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
And may end up in breaking the screen :silly:
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
it's an optional feature. ppl can choose not to use it or disable it. removing it deprives others of this unique feature.

moreover, no need hard tap, especially the screen crop function.

plus I don't bother about what others think about how I use *my* own phone.. ;)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Agreed. Thats user preferences and all feedback are welcome mate. Some use it and few dont. They will not remove any feature for sure but will add up.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
but doing screenshot first... the crop is only in box format. whereas if you just even gently touch your knuckle on the screen and draw the outline, it crops exactly following the outline...

only other time i've seen this is one Samsung Note series with the pen.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
So it will remain. Features removal is not considered easily only addition is ok :good:
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
noted. just having discussion to understand different usages by everyone... that's all.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Ofcourse mate and these are healthy discussion. Based on user preferences and requirements :good:
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Maybe it's the differences in our knuckles? I just tried it again. From soft to hard touch, all fingers, and different angles of my knuckles. Works twice out of many attempt.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Thats why i rely in actual screenshot method.

Had similar things on 5x for knuckle gesture but was not functioning all the time
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Let's just hope it improves in EMUI 6.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Certainly mate. Hope This may improve and gets stabilize and work all the time as per requirement.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
I was also looking forward to Earsense. :D
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
What is it?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Qeexo is the team behind Fingersense which is the tech behind the knuckle screenshots. Now they are developing Earsense. A tech that looks to replace the proximity sensor.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
That was quick and precise. :good:
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
You're welcome. ;)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
are you using any screen protector?

screenshot is slightly more difficult but still the same. iinm, it just detects the two quick knocks. it does not detect the force.

the cropping is so much easier. just place knocked on screen and crop away.

I don't like the bottom combo coz sometimes I end up turning off the screen instead. It'd be nice if there's a screenshot option when you press and hold the power.

give it a try at home screen. try the screen crop thing first. just make sure you have the gestures enabled..
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
At the moment, my phone is naked. My case and screen protector is yet to arrive. Thanks man but I wouldn't bother anymore.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MrHuman:
This is great news!

Hopefully the EU versions will be getting it this year as well.

Would advise to wait for official release or beta one. Beta is started already. There are lot of files going on internet which are corrupted.

I just saw a video on youtube whose title claims to install the Android 8 on 6X which was a total crap and I reported the video on basis of misleading info.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] devanshu99:
Yes u are right . Don't update via frimware finder app unless it's approved , because I tries to update via above method and when tap on quick update error comes that it's not authentic and after 10 seconds my phone restarts automatically and after restarts my network settings are crashing when I click on mobile network . So wait for official or beta updates guys , thank you
