[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] fc3211:
You cannot do it anymore. If you contact Huawei to ask for your bootloader unlock code they will no longer tell it to you.

In my case I had already rooted last year and obtained the code. I did not write it down because I did not know I would ever have a problem getting it again. But Huawei changed their terms and now they refuse to provide the bootloader unlock code to anybody (even if you had already been provided one in the past). So If you did not write it down then it is lost forever.

I consider this to be a betrayal so I will boycott Huawei from now on. I also dont like Emui, I just want stock android.

Honor 6x had nice camera, nice fingerprint scanner, nice screen, decent battery life. But headphone and speaker volume too low and now they have taken away the ability to unlock the bootloader. I bought a used LG G5 and im happy with that. Better camera and a user-removable battery
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
They gave us 60 days I think,before they close it off.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:
Wait man, i agree with you regarding the bad move that Huawei made and I'll never buy another device from them too, but like Supersad said (and as reported by the article here https://www.xda-developers.com/huawei-stop-providing-bootloader-unlock-codes) they will still provide bootloader codes for devices bought before May, 24th. There are 60 days to ask it before going out of time, so reading what you wrote sounds very bizarre. They told you this for real? Because i obtained another code just some day ago (and i had asked one last year also)

And you're right dude.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] goosnarrggh:
There was a transitional period: after the original bootloader unlock page had been taken down, but before the replacement page was put up with the 60-day discontinuation notice. During that period, it was more difficult to obtain unlock codes.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ohno7158:
It Said that it could brick or damage my USA phone. Still waiting.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Lodotux:
The page to get your unlock code can't be reached, I tried several addresses on différents threads. So I'll be waiting for Oreo on the 6x and for Christmas, I'm moving to a brand which considers customers like a part of the game, and bootloader unlocking something basic... Maybe honor/Huawei can change their point of view until then...

But this is not speeding the Oreo update process..

Edit : I finally managed to get my unlock code using UC browser, just in case... Don't try with anything else, it doesn't work
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] haitham16995:
Yes i try it and it done perfectly upgrade to oreo . First try i have two bugs

Sim card didn't work and sound too

But after i am back to stack i try again and it done perfectly

With no bugs .
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shirishkulkarni:
Cool, I'm using BLN-L22C675B363 build. Is it applicable for this build? It would be great if you can provide the steps you followed.

Cheers!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Dude u will have to rebrand your device to Chinese variant before that
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] CodingAddict704:
Any news about beta for other variants ?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Hamed.sh:
When the a Oreo comes for BLN_L21 ?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Lodotux:
We're still waiting for it... We don't have any news about the status of the beta for now, I will be optimistic and hope for a release before the end of June, may be in the next weeks
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Yeah exactly mid June maybe last week is what I'm expecting.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Coolyou:
They said the ending line of Oreo releasing is the end of August for all of the devices. But, let's hope it will be June.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Lodotux:
The schedule said it was supposed to be released in May, I really hope it will be before the end of June, the beta is one month old now, let's pray now... August might be for older models than the 6x
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
May 2018 was for beta in China and it was according to schedule
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] fc3211:
Here is a copy paste of the email they sent me when I asked for my bootloader unlock code:

Thank you for contacting Huawei, we widely appreciate your preference and we hope you are doing well.

Regarding your inquiry, we must inform you that Huawei USA does not provide codes to unlock the bootloader under any circumstances. We kindly inform you that this action can potentially "brick" the device or in other words, renders the device completely unusable and voids the warranty service and device support. We have no control over how unlocking the bootloader will affect your device.

Here is our user agreement:

https://hwid5.vmall.com/CAS/portal/agreements/userAgreement/en-us_userAgreement.html?version=common

We apologize for not being able to help you with this matter.

Thank you for contacting Huawei Technical Support, we are at your service.

Best regards.

A.G.G.

As I said before I had ALREADY obtained the unlock code a few months before so It was COMPLETELY UNREASONABLE of them to refuse to give me the code since I had ALREADY RECEIVED IT IN THE PAST.

I never thought to write down the code because I just assumend I could login to the Huawei dev website anytime I wanted to and get the code again but I did not expect them to BETRAY US the way that they did. They pulled the rug out from underneath our feet of the good, loyal customers.

I dont want to do business with a company like that. But when Mothers Day came I decided to just put the phone back in the box and gift it to my Mother. She doesnt care about root.

I wasted $150 USD on the device
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] haitham16995:
Actually I just followed the steps in the guide :D
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] haitham16995:
I was able to open unlock page on my phone last week . And i got my unlock code . And i check it now and it works
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Bro I had a query.If I get my unlock code now but don't root or unlock my phone,will I still receive OTA updates?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Ofcourse you will. Even with rooted phone you will get ota but only will not be able to install as need stock boot and recovery. Save the code somewhere, i have all codes in text file saved at drive, mail etc
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
It ain't gonna officially have any updates after Oreo.Only Miui updates remember that.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Lodotux:
https://club.huawei.com/thread-16160812-1-1.html[/]

Looks like there is a new beta. A closed one since the 06/06. That's what I understand from the page with Google translate.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Adrepixl5:
Ok ok, so let me get this straight: They closed the old beta program, managed to get that particular ROM stable enough for release, and started yet a new beta program... Is that still Chinese only, or Global versions and European like BLL's and BLN's can get it?

If that's the case do we have to download the "UPDATE.APP" file or is it OTA and you jyst have to enroll for beta testing?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
I'm totally confused bro.

Glory Play 6X O Version ( EMUI 8.0+Android 8.0)

Closed version 8.0.5.509 Release Notes

Thank you for your support of pollen. Welcome to experience the glory of 6X EMUI 8.0 + Android 8.0 beta 8.0.5.509. The following is a detailed description of the version.

Glory Play 6X Netcom Edition (BLN-AL10/AL20/AL30/AL40)

Glory Play 6X Mobile Netcom Edition (BLN-TL10)

Glory Play 6X Mobile Standard Edition (BLN-TL00)[/]

I'm quoting the thread on hihonor China's website.

There are the release notes, but anything else posted in this thread is only available to the people there, I get a ''only the author can see this''on every post.

Just meant to let you know guys :/
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Lodotux:
I'm trying to get answers from honor France, I think it's worth the shot but can't say what I will get.

Did someone here manage to get the Oreo update, maybe from other countries ?

If someone got an update outside China, we could hope for the best.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Whenever I ask Honor India ,They say under testing and evaluation.But I'm sure we are gonna get a beta announcement by end of this month
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Khan ubaid:
No Emui 8 for honor 6x of Indian region, we will only get security patches for few months , i guess till aug/sep ... & The end
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
How are you so sure about that pal?.There has been no announcement and I think they will release it for 6x;).Nd if indian model ain't getting it no global model will
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Khan ubaid:
That might be their strategy, they recently launched few low end devices like honor 7A/7C, if 6x will get Emui 8 , who is gonna buy 7A/7C... They are having different chipset but of low end... If 6x will get Emui 8 then 6x is better option...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
LETS be optimistic bro.;).They won't do that to us;)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Khan ubaid:
I hope so... I recently flashed Emui 8 on my 6x after debranding, it feels good especially navigation, 3 finger screenshot, AR lens were spotlight features, but no network , missing imei ,so back to BLN-L22

I noticed something on my phone, under system updates. There is a submenu : download complete package. This item was not available, and ''grayed''.

This morning it's available, even though there is still no update.

Yes it is. Earlier there was no Oreo for India but after I pushed and shared the Google form data with Honor, they are pushing it too, so I am more than sure that Indian and others will get it.

BTW responss were huge. When i shared the data last time, it was less numbers but this time it was huge numbers and maximum for Indian model.

Oreo is good on 3 GB RAM. and treble support may bring good amount of custom ROMs.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
I said coz Nougat is not bad either. If there are so many confusion over oreo for this device then better to leave it like thst unless we get. Nougat is not killing us. I am excited and waiting for Oreo for sure but what if we dont get :(

This was just a statement to calm down myself a bit brother. Ofcourse we need Oreo and lot of improvement it has to offer.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] marrco:
it's a budget phone, with 7x out in a few months. It would be stupid for Huawei to update it to Oreo. It already had a major (mm to nougat) update. let's just hope it gets updated to 7.12 soon and next year there will be a new budget model to buy, the 7x.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Yeah but not everyone will buy a new phone every year. 2 major updates were promised and we had only one in Nougat. We may not get Android 7.1.2 but directly Android Oreo.

:)

Edit- it was 2 update and not 3. Excuse the typo.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:
Exactly man, personally i hope to keep this phone AT LEAST 4 years, like my older phone. I don't care of whatever it could exit on market, i won't never care much as the phone that i own, and that i use daily. I don't like to waste money :)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Absolutely mate. coz now a days phone is launching every week. We can not invest in these gadgets on every month. I still have the 5x with me. Will use 6X unless i get something really good that too not soon enough to purchase. If this get damaged or something will switch back to 5X :)

These are hard eaen money that we can't waste on phone every year.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] marrco:
This is a budget phone. And having even one major update is good, more than one could expect. Huawei sales would suffer from releasing a second free update to support old models when releasing a new Honor 7x.

Can you please point to Huawei/Honor official statement about 2 major upgrades for 6x?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Don't have the links for the same buddy but this os what Huawei has promised for all devices.

4x- from KK to MM

5x- from LP to MM and volte

5C- from LP to Nougat.

Same is almost applicable for all devices as far as i know unless device hardware doesn't support.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] marrco:
Hardware support is not the issue. LOS can be installed on many devices that don't officially support newer Android versions.

If a new honor 7x is about to be launched in the next few months then releasing a free additional major upgrade for an old version only means lost sales. And it's a budget phone, so it's not supposed to have updates. We've been lucky it had a major one, from mm to Nougat.

But I'm still waiting for the link to the official statement about 2 major upgrades. Until then it's only wishful thinking.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
We are talking about the official updates and not LOS or CM based ROMs. I know there is LOS rom for 4X but no official Nougat for it right?

See below links

https://www.slashgear.com/huawei-honor-8-promised-to-get-2-years-of-software-updates-21452751/

Normally it goes like security/OTA updates every quarter for 2 years and 1 major update every year (in total 2 major upgrades- Android or Volte or anything major).

And few things are not officially disclosed on public channel, same as this thread. It was mentioned in the meet up and no official link for this. I have the info of 2 major update for every phone in recent time (don't take example of a phone launched 3-4 years back) but we can not get official link confirming the same.

One more-

http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_commits_to_24_months_of_software_updates-blog-20050.php

24 months are more than enough to get 2 major Android updates and quarterly security updates.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] mahrukhsa2:
yeah honor 4c has also received two majors.. KK to MM.. i have personally owned it.. so i hope honor 6x will get oreo plus its kirin not snapdragon so it has high chances.. ( as 5c got 2 coz of kirin but 5x got only one due to snapdragon i think)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
It was not because of SD or kirin, infact, it's easier for SD devices, it's just a matter of what honor choice is, whether to update or not.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
The excuse for 5X was - it got 2 major updates, one MM and one is VOLTE. So no more updates, and won't come in future as well for sure.

I don't consider VoLTE as a major update, however the devs done a great job with custom ROMs

my phone died when trying more treble roms went to hard brick black screen never turns on only fastboot detection. I spent 19 euros to make it work again. now I came back to India and decided not to update to oreo even it available officially.
