[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Edwin Davis:
No...there is no equilizer in this update..the audio is same as in the nougt..they must include an equilizer...i must say the audio quality in 6X is not good
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:

When we get oreo update !
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] rostropol:
When will Oreo be available for L21C432 European models,does anyone know anything,any hint at all? Even on FF there is only a June firmware 377....
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
No news bro,just keep checking firmware finder regularly
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] rostropol:
Im hoping that it will happen within the upcoming August......
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
If so, we will have to wait for another month after appearing on FF. As always.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] rostropol:
But finally it will appear and mostly the OTA update will be pushed property...I assume it will be smooth, after this it will only get security patch updates...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Obviously bro ,we will get security patches for another 4-5 months and that's it
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] rostropol:
...the OTA update will be pushed properly....I meant properly. Concerning these security patches they could provide them for more than 6 months I guess...

Probably initial oreo and then couple of stable release with security patches.

Hello guys !

I didn't get EMUI 5.1 update for my Honor 6X cause I saw in many forums that the camera was worst after the update...so I have 2 questions:

#1 - can we update from EMUI 4 to 8 without passing by EMUI 5 ?

#2 - is the camera better with EMUI 8 than with EMUI 5...and 4?

Thank you all!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
camera has improved after nougat update...

and you have to update to emui 5 I.e. nougat before upgrading to oreo... you should be on latest software version

Check my debranding guide. Flash oeminfo and then b340 update. Once done, use hwota for Oreo. Both guides in signature

I recently did the HWOT7 thing with the Chinese variant files on my BLN-L24 and have since flashed a GSI from openkirin to LSO15.1. Things are running great, but curiosity is getting the best of me. Any reason why I should use HWOTA to flash the Indian variant, then reflash the GSI? Or leave things as is? Thanks.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Ramesh006:
if you decided to stay in gsi then you don't need to flash India emui 8. the only difference you will observe is volte in india emui 8. if you flash gsi rom over India emui 8 then volte won't work. so there is no difference.

Off topic- Honor 9N looks gorgeous especially the robin egg blue color only let down is kirin 659 instead of 710. Rest all is excellent and pricing is very aggressive

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex19Gam:
Normaly, the US version get the updates 1 o 2 weeks after Indian version, but if u don't want to wait until it release, read this guide to debranding to Indian version:

https://xdaforums.com/honor-6x/how-to/guide-debranding-to-india-variant-bln-t3679402

And next, to update to OREO:

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ppawan:
Hey shashank,

your above solution worked,, what i did is downloaded the oem file again

put it into a freshly formatted sd card as fat32 (filesystem) and then copied the file to sd card

and also put HURU & 3 Update files ( BLN-L22 is comping properly now.

then when i rebooted all worked fine...

only 2 small issues,...

1) i don't see the FM Radio app ,,, can anyone help me with the FM radio app.

2) it says my phone is rooted when logging on to the huawei ID... why is that so ?

3) dont see ringtones, themes(downloaded themes work), honor club apk. flashed again via huru. & via hwota again it doesn't work nor does fm radio work

4:15 AM

UPDATE:

gave it a last attempt of the night....Flashed again using HWOTA and it finally worked and flashed all the zip files properly... i have finally the full firmware working properly... i have all the aspects working at the minute..will review further and connect if i need any help... thank you shashank and ramesh for your continuous support to all.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Glad to know. Yes, huru having issue, i almost bricked mine with that then early morning hwota worked fine. Theme and other missing apk can be regained by flashing the small data file via dload, this worked for me almost all the time if not then flash the same via twrp.

I used the same concept on my v10 few days back when messed up again while doing some various things just out of curiosity

Hé guys, it's deadly quiet indeed. If everything went well with the Chinese beta, they could release a schedule for the rest of the world. Chinese arrogance ?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jackodex:
welll

this is huawei ? you shouldn't/don't expect anything from them it's upto huawei if they are interested in giving updates and if they want to give its still useless as they take alot of ****ty time just look at indian oreo in ff it's only one build since 19th of July and they're still testing just one build :)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Oreo stable is expected to be rolling by August 15,let's wait and watch what they do
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jackodex:
well

there's no official confirmation /eta for it so you should expect it at least by end of August of 1-2 week of September
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:

I know Huawei is big in india and REALLY big in china, but us and europe exist too... It's only just for them to prioritize the bigger markets, but it's really unjust to say screw everone else, we'll take care of it later without keeping fans informed.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
It's not a matter of prioritizing and screwing, but planning and communicating.

Yes, I'm a spoiled Ubuntu user. Next release is october 18. Period.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
That's why it's really necessary for these guys to make a dedicated software update page with the dates for updates mentioned and also frequency of security patches for the devices....maybe quarterly or monthly
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] watsman:
Why only chinese users are in priority to be provided with fast updates and more features compared with others.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] marrco:
I'm a Debian user, so next release will be when it's ready.

Btw, this is an old, entry-level phone. The newer 7x was released in December last year, so we're lucky if one day this old, cheap terminal will receive an Oreo update.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Khan ubaid:

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Adrepixl5:
China has a pretty stable official rom for release, next one is going to be india or somewhere near india, and the question is us or europe first? Probably europe, because Huawei isn't doing well in the us especially with all those carrier service denials back when they released the mate 10
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Closed beta ROM mentions volte support for Jio, Vodafone,idea which automatically confirms indian release is gonna be first
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Should be this month for sure
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Exactly. They are keeping their promise of 2 major upgrade and thats a big thing for this entry or mid level phone. It still does well BTW for camera, performance and still a solid battery backup
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
My suggestion is to have a global ROM release with all the regions included and just change the language as per the need and have a seperate one for china without Google.

Same hardware, same build numbers, supporting all the LTE, VOLte bands (if carrier supports), all feature in every global release and let user select what they want
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] marrco:
> 2 major upgrade

they did only one, from android 6 to 7

I think Indian user also got volte or something like that. But that's not a major update, it's not even a working feature for the most of us (western world)

to be honest even the first update was a fake one.

That phone was released in Europe after android 7 release, so even buying it on the launch date you got a phone with a factory loaded obsolete version that on first boot updated itself to android 7

So 0 major updates for the most of us. And even if the phone sells much cheaper in India and it's more expensive around the world it was a nice terminal to use for just one year. In 2017 7X went to market so it's quite obvious that this old cheap phone gets almost no love anymore. I keep it to stream music to my bt soundbar, but i'd love to have it updated to Oreo if and when it's a stable fast new version and it's 100% sure it will work better than with android 7 and without any issue
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Buddy closed beta Oreo ROM has already leaked for Indian models and it's as good as stable ...stable rom starts rolling out by 15th August hopefully....so that makes it 2 major os upgrades
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:

Also, once the Oreo framework is released for the 6x, you can mount treble modules for developers to port 9.0 or even more, like they did for the samsung galaxy S2 that got Oreo just shy of two months after Google released the official ROM, also, it'll be easier to root and many more perks of 8.0. things are looking really great so far!
