Sorry i'm posting my "personal updates" on here, but security is very important, and i do not want to mislead you.

The old account has been successfully wiped and taken back under control, but from now on, i'm going to be posting only on this one, and keeping the other one as backup.

SPEAKING of backup, has anyone encountered this weird problem with HWFF? once updated with proxy/VPN the changelogs tab on the settings page was blank (Specifically the B375 to B376 update on an unbranded device ) and i couldn't recieve any more updates from HWFF or Honor themselves. I backed up my data, low level reset wouldn't fix the issue

So, only through ADB, triggering a almost bootloader-level format (called deep level format) i was able to update to EMUI 5.0.3 with the August security patch on BLN-L21C432B378

I hope i've been of any help for anyone that had this problem, and guys, with Android Pie out, surely we must be getting Oreo soon, we were promised 2 major updates: the first one was fron 6.0 to 7.0 keep tight guys!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] galapagos:
It's kinda odd that your BLN-L21C432 with August security patch has EMUI 5.0.3 while BLN-L24C567 with July security patch has EMUI 5.0.4.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Adrepixel5:
The number didn't update, i reboted, retried installing through proxy and now it says 5.0.4 and it really says August under security patch level, it said July before reinstalling. Idk what happened
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] vss karthik:
will the new oreo update come with a treble support?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Yep
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Adrepixel5:
The new framework will be there, this means treble support, since the 6x's hardware supports it, easier rooting and flashing, and many more perks!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Hopefully you got your bootloader codes right?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] vss karthik:
yaaa.. but i dont understand why do they have to stop giving the unlock codes

yaa... bit i dont understand why do they have to stop giving codes
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Amirk365:
You know, we could get Android Pie and EMUI 8 unofficially, since all the Project Treble devices are the same. We can expect reasonable stability from it too.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Yep but for that we need Emui 8 with treble officially first or flash it and then treble roms

anyways huawei and their phones are getting ****y day by day
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
This closed beta ROM is as good as stable ,many users flashed it ,no bugs at all...so I'm guessing no beta program will be there and stable rollout directly...we are anticipating 15th seeing Honors track record of delivering previous OTA updates...but I'm sure we should get it by August end
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jackodex:
but still huawei sucks

still huawei sucks no developments as usual, nor they release some sources like volte etc and now biggest fail no bootloader unlock

All our expectations led to dissatisfaction....new update has arrived in FF with August 2018 patches ,so I'm guessing Honor 8 is gonna get it this month and 6x next month

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:

if they change mind they may terminate oreo also after all it's huawei no one can guess this shi tty company

(Off-topic) Does anyone know how one can unlock the bootloader right now? Is it even possible?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Yeah through the paid service by DC unlocker
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Get a credit and account on DC unlocker, download HCU Client, run hcu client with same credentials as DC unlocker and check for unlock tab.

User mentioned he booted fine on kirin 655. Once booted fine, devs will definitely fix small bugs with time. Even emui 8 is not full fledged on 6X so dont worry they will be fixed..
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] xinoxkai:
I give up, I bought my 6X(USA model) because it was expected to update to Oreo, now I can see that it was pure BS. I won't buy any other Huawei/Honor product and I will advise against getting one of them.

Before you say that is in testing process or that I can manually install 8.0, that's also BS, testing so far is limited to Asian models and having to risk my phone debranding to do something that Honor themselves should have done is stupid.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:

I'm tired of coming to this thread and seeing a bunch of whiney people complaining about how they're taking their phone for granted and acting entitled to everything... News flash, you are owed absolutely nothing. Please, be happy and grateful you have a working mobile phone, be happy and grateful it isn't made poorly and does do common activities smoothly

Sure its aggravating when you get your hopes up and learn that it has a slim chance of happening now the end. You have to consider the developers at Huawei who work on the EMUI updates, they work hard and for who? The users... Stop acting ungrateful and spoiled, and just hope for the best and expect the worst, and please, for other sanity... if you must complain, do it in this wonderful app called "Notepad" where you write it all down in, then delete your complaints, you'll feel better.

---------- Post added at 11:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 PM ----------

You see, honor promised us said update, and i feel disappointed both for us users and devs who worked hard on the beta, and hearing it may all be cancelled really gets my gears grinding. As a company, of you feel that you cannot fulfill a promise, just don't promise anything to anyone.

Honor specifically said that every device you buy from them will get two major releases of Android down the line. For the 6x being 6.0 to 7.0 and 7.0 to 8.0, and again, i'm not mad at honor themselves, and especially not at those in charge of developing new software updates. But to the asshole manager that said at some point: "**** it, we're losing money on our promise, let's just ignore the problem at hand and roll back everything"
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] davis the droid:
Honor never said "We promise all users will receive Android 8 for Honor 6x."... They hoped Oreo will be brought to the 6X, therefore there was no promise to start with.

What if Huawei/Honor released Oreo and disregarded performance, which causes the mobile phone's battery life to diminish, apps to freeze, ect. You would be upset right? You would, then there would be even more complaints. Wouldn't you rather a more stable Android 7.0, than an unstable Android 8.0. Remember, Honor knows best. If they feel it won't work properly, they hold every right not to make a release of Oreo. They want us to have the best, and sometimes the lastest isn't always the greatest. Therefore, if Nougat is more stable than Oreo in their closed testing, then Honor wouldn't like to release an unstable system for a mobile phone who had a stable Android Nougat/Marshmallow to start with.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Adrepixel5:
I feel like they should behave like apple did with their battry related CPU throttling scandal, i know it's a different kind of issue, but hear me out, after public outrage, apple decided to let the user choose wether or not to enable performance throttling

Honor should do the same, of and only the 8.0 program's cancellation is confirmed, let the users decide whether or not to upgrade to a slightly more unstable, but fresher Android version or stick with the old, but stabler ROM.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
But closed beta for Asian model is as good as stable and only has minor bugs .....I don't know why they would provide oreo for us in India and not in other countries:mad:

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
I'm so confused.... No oreo, but pie ? Or nothing at all ?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] mind-overflow:
Listen, I don't know if you're a secret Honor spy or just a random fan, but to be polite... You're talking wrong things.

First of all, a company doesn't feel and hope to upgrade one of its products. They're projecting them from scratch and they know their devices better than anyone else. So they DO know if something can be made or not. It's not like a "huh let's try and we'll see how it goes!", that's what xda developers do, not manufacturers. They knew a Kirin 655 device with 3GBs of RAM could handle Oreo with no difficulties (there are even worse devices running is super smoothly).

I don't get why should Honor release a system with worse performance and freezing apps. That's why alpha and beta stages exist. Then we always get to a stable 1.0 release. That's how development works, you know? You are making nonsense statements.

I'm pretty sure eveyone wants a stable system over an unstable one. But if a device has all the capabilities of running it then it's only developers' fault if the final release isn't quite optimized. And anyway I'm pretty sure everyone would agree that an over-a-year old system has a higher probability of being stable over a freshly released one. So with "Wouldn't you rather a more stable Android 7.0, than an unstable Android 8.0." you're saying we should never upgrade anything because new version sometimes have bugs or optimization flaws? We already talked about alpha and bet stages so that's the only way your statement makes sense. If it's not stable it's not final relase. If it's final release and it's not stable then someone hasn't done his job correctly. If it's newer final release vs older final release the new one has a higher probability of having bugs. Nougat will always be more stable than Oreo in their closed testings because of this how-the-world-works magical rule. Nougat was more stable than Marshmallow before launch. That's why updates exist. Period.

The only ones who want the best for us are ourselves. Honor managers want the best for their business and Honor developers want the best for their salary or holidays. And that's another period.

So again as the beginning, they can't feel like making a release or not. They know their devices. They know their software. They know both the necessary things to make a stable rom. But the also know their income ad that's where the problems come from. Final period.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jayanak69:
Hey man listen up, the whole point of this thread is for a discussion about the Oreo update. If people are worried and whining let them be. Everyone wants to see this update as soon as possible on their devices. It's been long over due. If it doesn't come, oh well :/

No one is acting ungrateful or spoiled. If u don't want to see these whiny comments and complaints don't visit this damn thread it's that simple.

But I Want To Share My Gaming Experience With Honor 6X.

As You All Know PUBG is Rising Beast In Mobile Gaming . I Spend Lot Of Time in Playing PUBG With My Honor 6x & I Feel That The Performance Of Honor 6x is Not So Good As Regarding To Specs Of Phone Like 4Gb Ram. At The Minimum Graphics & low Framerate the Game is Not So Smooth To Be Played As Compared To Other Devices With Same Specs . I Think Honor Should Do Something For Improving GPU Performance...
