[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Akopps:
Who said that Huawei's April update (or any other vendor's) SHOULD be NEWER than March patch level? The story goes like this: Google releases the March security update for the Android open source code. By the time Huawei integrates this code into its source base, tests it, and then releases it, at least a month will pass. Does it not make sense to everyone?

PS: in English language we use "you" not "u"

Yesterday April security patch update launched for BLN-L22, so I thought you too got April update.

And I know in English we use 'you' not 'u' but while typing I use 'u'

Sorry if u got offended
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] NinadMestry:
Not sure if it's true but found this information
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Prashant324:
Yes it's true honor 6x will get Oreo update in May
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Khan ubaid:
I got error updating march update ....

Bln-l22

Has anyone updated successfully ??
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:
Guys, I'd assume it'd be better to make a new thread regarding the tracking of released updates, if you'd like to keep speaking about.

Overall because, 1 - as thread title says, this is a topic about the Oreo update for Honor 6X.

2 - there is already a database in way to keep track of incoming/released updates, and it's @ http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database

Something like 20 pages of this thread are about various monthly updates, and that's off-topic.

Let's try to keep the content of this thread inherent to its title :)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
there's new ota update on my phone which has no changelogs... :confused: also I cannot find any changelog on firmware finder.. (sorry I am going offtopic)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Iamdebu06:
Have you updated??

Is security patch updated to March 2018??
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
yes..here it is
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Akopps:
No offense at all. Have a good day.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
In the march 2018 update, I can see some improvement in camera app opening...its slightly fast now :)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Iamdebu06:
So, Honor is providing updates but pushing them is quite slow....

Hope it would be fixed in near future
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
did u got the update?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Iamdebu06:
Nope

FF still showing not approved... :(
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
okay buddy...:(
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Please post a screenshot after updating guys

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:07 PM ----------

I just don't get it ,how you get the update the earliest?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] miststudent2011:
You can share ota through FF if its still being displayed in the list its better you upload it to somewhere and share it.

Others can update their device with DNS method.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
So both the march and April security updates been released?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
only march
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
how to do that?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] miststudent2011:
If you have any ota open the app drawer and select share firmware then read info there

All 3 files are needed to download?

Please tell the procedure after downloading it
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
i had not upgraded my phone manually...so i don't know the procedure thou..... can anyone tell the right procedure to update it manually... thanks in advance ..;)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Yes. Flash the small data file via twrp and then the maiin update file via dload method.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ohno7158:
I get the updates after the first of the month. I received the March update about April 10th. It is that way every month. I looked for change log but found nothing. My camera was not working, unsure if update was cause of it.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jax:
Dont believe on security patches they can be fake,oem can simply change date and month in software and we think its new security patch
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
yeah.... there is about 4 patch gap on my mobile...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jax:
Did anybody noticed any benefit of security update they not that important,android update is more important
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ohno7158:
Every 3 days I can't use my fingerprints to open lock screen. I have to use code. That was in the change log as added security. Good with that.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jax:
Yup but sometime not everytime
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
can you show me the changelog ?..
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jax:
I dont think that was a security update thing,its huawei own implementation
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ohno7158:
Can't find anything on it. I saw a post about the 3 day log in some where. Al i know is that after one of the updates a would try to open my phone with a fingerprint and it would go to the lock screen and I had to put in my code. Since I updated to March update my camera was not working right so downloaded one off of play store.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
okay.. i cant see any improvements in march update....
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ohno7158:
Ok I am good with that too.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] miststudent2011:
Heads up for the battery drain.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ohno7158:
Battery drain is happening but it was always that way. Music, smart watch, photos. I just Carry a chargeing cord.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] traily:
OK guys, this hast been mentioned before and is really f*cking annoying, this tread is titled 'Android 8/oreo' update, so please STOP POSTING OFF TOPIC! Create a new tread if you want to track updates not regarding the oreo update!

I wonder if there are any mods around in the honor 6x forum!? It doesn't seem this way...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
What's your problem?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:
The problem is that this IS NOT an update tracker thread, for those that can't read the thread title and that still didn't understood this (or that don't care about going continuously, and uselessly off topic).

If it's that necessary, I'll create by myself an update tracker thread in way to let you post there, and not in an Oreo thread. Even if creating a thread it's a thing that everyone else can do.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Tamil15:
It would be great, if we can have a new thread to post and discuss about the updates etc.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
It does say Oreo update but the OP did not specifically say that it's for Oreo.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
It would be great , please do it
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
I have made thread in Discussions group named "Honor 6x security updates"....all of us can discuss about security updates there..
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Do we really need to mention each and every word in title or the description? Thats common sense.

If its RR ROM, OP expect the discussion only on RR and not AOSP (even though OP doesn't mention it)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] oae08:
It's pathetic that we are in mid april now and still no news about Oreo update for the Honor 6X
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
It's confirmed for Oreo bro.May 2018 it's gonna be rolling out.http://club.huawei.com/thread-15433844-1-1.html
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:
News about Oreo for 6X are arrived 2 weeks ago, and was posted here. I think it'd be better to check some page ago, before saying that
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
Yeah, I'm thinking that too. May in China. But in Europe way later. Hope I'm wrong.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
If it comes in May, most likely I will receive it July lol
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] oae08:
I know but if it will be really released in May, there would have been beta version available already
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
I think we will have to wait till July
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkAlpha.Sete:
Wrong.

They confirmed that the Beta version would arrive in May, not the final version.

At least that's what I understood.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RelicUser:
Everyone's talking about security patches and I'm just here hoping for an update! I haven't gotten ANY Security patch since last year!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] del dom:
Do we get all emui 8 features that other honor phones have with the oreo update . Any idea about that.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
Don't see why not. And I think all Honor phones updated to Android Oreo has Project Treble. Not sure about that though.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Expecting face unlock and front cam portrait mode like 7x.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] del dom:
Also double tap to wake and off. Badly needed that feature.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
i want navigation on/off feature and some gestures...also smoother animations...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
I Still feel it's super-smooth right now.Double tap to wake is a necessity as well as 720p slow mo.480p is like ridiculous:silly:
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
app opening closing animations are quite sluggish for some apps...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
What about Developer Mode with 3 animation effects off ?

The only thing sluggish for me is opening camera.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkAlpha.Sete:
I don't see any sluggish on opening apps...

Neither the camera or everything else, neither opening animations.

I simply don't use the crappy default launcher... The root of almost half the problems this device has come from that launcher.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Rohn59:
I agree about the stock launcher. Nova Prime performs quite well on my 6x.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
I use Lean Launcher. Everything works pretty well. Wish if Huawei would have included an option to swipe up for app drawer.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Hamed.sh:
Can you help me? Trying to install B381
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
I use smart drawer...

---------- Post added at 01:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 AM ----------

animations should be there in phone...otherwise it looks a dumb phone ....
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] oae08:
My friend has the mate 10 lite and got the Oreo update and we with the honor 6x still didn't !!!?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aditya Tondwalkar:
we will get it..just have the patience ....
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Iamdebu06:
A new firmware has been listed which will provide only april security paches
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkAlpha.Sete:
Everyone here knows already that Honor confirmed the Beta for May. Why are you still complaining like everyone was 2 months ago? No reason for so now.

This thread is not an update tracker, for that there is another thread.

This thread is solely for discussing the Oreo update.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:
You have to talk about that here https://xdaforums.com/honor-6x/how-to/discussion-honor-6x-security-updates-t3777195
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RelicUser:
So relating to the update for Oreo, I think we're getting much closer, BLN L21C185B374 and got 4 Security Patches in one update!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
B374 appeared on Firmwarefinder on april8. When Oreo will be rolled out in May, then why it isn't on Firmwarefinder yet ? I receive Ota-update when it's about 1 month on Firmwarefinder. Don't set your hopes too high!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Badace2:
Because it won't be a global oreo release in may, it is highly likely that only beta will start to roll out in may and it might just only be for Chinese models of the phone, and then later when they're done with beta they'll release it globally which i think might be in july or later.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
Hope so!

I don't need a Beta on my daily phone.

(Pc with dual boot is a different story).
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Honor 8 lite got it so yeah
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Hamed.sh:
What is BETA?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
It's the software under testing provided for some limited users
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] paul_zm:
there is a news from China forum : the oreo beta will come in May , so the official version will come later , let's wait for it patiently .
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
So there's no schedule ? Like: release candidate in september and Final in december ?

(Yup, slightly in cynical mode)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] dkionline:
Some threads in China for oreo atleast the announcments from last months got hidden or unpinned again.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
It's there under glory play 6x , official activity
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkAlpha.Sete:
Seriously, I'm just tired of this people.

Could you just, simply, read a few pages back of this thread? Do you have an idea of how many people already said what you just said?

For everyone:

Stop saying the same stuff over and over, it's not useful. Before you post "news" check if they're really news.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
Nowadays it's kinda time consuming to read through several pages, especially since it's over 150 pages now? The search function often misses key words too.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] paul_zm:
byebye , you guy :D
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ando prio:
It took around 3 months after last update
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] imvipinkurian01:
No use of reading these comments!! Why I login here ? just to know about the status of Oreo !! Senior Developers or any spy from Honor ;) !! People are talking what we have already discussed here !

Listen up my situation! I & my wife have honor 6x She bought it first like (6 x-32gb) October 2017, Flipkart and mine of (6x-64gb) feb 2018 ,amazon. Updates comes first on her phone and later like after 20-30 days in mine.

She even got the April patch BLN-L22C675B362

Is it not about region ? that a region gets update first or on who bought it first ?? I cant understand this :( why me why ??
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] imvipinkurian01:
Wow !! Got the april updates today ! B362
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Edwin Davis:
Where are u from?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] dkionline:
They roll in batches of IMEI, the Region isnt really an issue.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jax:
I got the b362 update but its failing when trying to install after download
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
Guys, the bootloader unlock section is closed on Honor site. Wonder why.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Yup that's a problem now. Unable to find anything apart from paid services
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Even I also got it.March 2018 patches with B362 update
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] imvipinkurian01:
Im from India
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
Is this the same for newer models? Because I was planning to upgrade to the 7x but it the bootloader is locked then I will look elsewhere.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jax:
Asus ZenFone max pro m1 is better if u prefer faster performance,stock android,SD 636,5000mah battery is great at this price but camera is average I think
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Iamdebu06:
Plz don't mess up the thread with Asus as it's honor 6x's thread and I can surely say 7x got better design, better build quality and better fingerprint sensor..
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
Calm down. I just checked and apparently all models bootloader will remain locked because they are saying that it is insecure unlocked.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jax:
I prefer fast performance,stock android,bigger battery,better GPU and fingerprint is not that bad it can be fix with update I think and off screen gestures also present,honor 7x is only good looking,fast fingerprint, Slightly better camera
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
I won't recommend Asus,had a pretty bad experience with the Zenfone 2(the first 4gb ram phone)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jax:
This time they are serious with aggressive price and stock android which is a good change
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] OneofUS_too:
This thread is about 6x Oreo update NOT for security updates or any other phone ideas. No-one have to deal with your out of thread discussions
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Hamed.sh:
When Oreo comes for honor 6x L21?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Beta to start this month for Chinese variant and soon for global I think
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Iamdebu06:
Do you have any official source?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Khan ubaid:
It is May.... And abviously there will be beta program first...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Yaa this was confirmed way back in March

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] oae08:
It's already May and no leaks about it
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] alexzzpd:
Yes, I'm so confused that there aren't any even though May started YESTERDAY.

My prediction is that we won't get tells towards Oreo until around May 13th or later. Also, I'm thinking that the U.S. variant will get beta around end of May to mid June. Just don't expect anything so early into the month.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
On FirmwareFinder update B375 appeared for European model.

What is the latest number for the Chinese model ? Still Nougat ?

May be the one launched with directly nougat or the 4 gb variant
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] sjc0211:
That's variant based on chinese carrier.

AL means chinese unlocked model for all 3 major carriers.

So, this variant is the most proper for global usage outside china.

Meanwhile, UL and TL models have restricted support of frequencies.
