But it definitely won't be any Huawei/Honor phones. I consider, that the same situation as we have now will be taking place year later with Honor 9 and Android Pie
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TorpedoGirl:
Sadly I'm aware of that fact...I'm Italian too :rolleyes:
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Giuskiller:
I think they should improve on the update side. You can't say (officially) that the rollout will start on 07/31 then on 08/10 no one has received the update. That means that the rollout isn't started at all in Italy, also on FF all of us can clearly see that it isn't even approved by model! So what's the logic in that? I will never know
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zakk87:
Its also not approved B520 from 4th July on Russia.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] xsacter:
Lol imagine all of a sudden Huawei being like "Sorry, Honor 8's Oreo plans have been cancelled" last minute.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JimZiii:
What difference does it make if I flash a firmware from firmware finder that's approved or not.

And hows oreo running on honor 8?

Since we only get this through the firmware finder, is it an unofficial version?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TorpedoGirl:
I agree, completely. This situation makes no sense at all :rolleyes: just say "Update will be available between August and September", stop. Nobody would be disappointed!

B576 appears in firmware finder. Anyone know what a region is?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Giuskiller:
Not Italy for sure, still on UNAPPROVED B521
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zakk87:
the only one approved firmware from june 16 (approved on july 25) was removed (i think) from servers. I can't find it on firmware finder but I think it was B501 for FRD-AL00 model.

So how many regions Huawei has? Maybe they approve B520/B521 when every region build going to be on servers?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] evilpaul13:
The way it seems to work is they have the devices and regions listed by priority. The newer phones have higher priority and the regions seem to go China to India to Russia to Europe to North America. When they expect to have extra bandwidth or server capacity they authorize further down the lower priority regions. If they don't get to an older device or older device in lower priority region before they have something new to roll out, it doesn't get authorized, that release gets skipped and they go back to the newer release on the higher priority device.

They're have been updates to the North American H8 that sat on the server for months and were never authorized. B397 from the beginning on July 6 weeks ago it's the most recent release in North America.

Of course, this is just my best guess based on observation because Huawei doesn't communicate with its customers.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] logan517:
still no update for my honor 8 (FRD-L09).

the next phone is defitiniv not again a huawei, with their crappy Kirin processors. No official lineage OS runs on it (only a handful of devices, not all)

even on my Nexus 4 that still works fine
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] evilpaul13:
There's nothing won't with the Kirin SoCs.... It's the lack of support.

Do you have to write a Bible and discuss so much with people? Much more important is that FF Oreo is now approved.

Theme is Oreo and not Windows.

Is approved for L09 and L19

2018.08.07 159456 L09

2018.08.06 159371 L19

What now?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Old friend:

Oreo in Italy! Firmware approved on FF and download from HiSuite!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] czesieq:
Let us know how Oreo works :)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
It's approved in FF for me too, but I can't see it in HiSuite. Can I update it through FF?

*Edit: I live in Sweden, but that shouldn't make a difference.

*Edit2: Tried updating HiSuite. Now it shows the update as available! :)

*Edit3: Just updated, seems like there is a new bootanimation (Very similar to the old one but still new)

*Edit4: Font is messed up after it being updated. I had planned to do a factory reset after I've updated anyways so will probably do that now.

Wtf [MENTION=1910176]epdm2be[/MENTION] you wrote a Bible.

I use a Google free phone before and I felt so better than now.

Who said that I bought H8 ONLY because of the partnership with XDA? OBVIOUSLY I bought it for the nice hardware that have it. But hardware is not enough. I don't think that for make a led notification, WiFi, or whatever working we need of Huawei, be honest, don't say bull**it just for justify Huawei and his blobs.

The things that definitely convinced me to buy a H8 was the possibility that I can run any aosp rom without Gapps. Without this possibility, I don't give a s*it about hardware, I would never bought it. There are a lot of smartphone in the market, I would simply buy another one, more open, more blobs-free. Something like pixel, Motorola, OP, Xiaomi. I learn making mistakes. Never ever again Huawei. You can just stay on Huawei and your nice backdoored windows 10 , nobody blame you ;)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Atleast on the first boot since the update (Haven't shut it down yet). It was like a small light blue line going accross the normal Honor logo.

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] epdm2be:
Apparently you don't get it. YES, you need Huawei to get the internal chips working (drivers) with AOSP unless Huawei made these chips compatible with generic drivers which I don't know. For example: I assume that in the case of the combined B/W and color-camera the tricks involved are proprietary Huawei's. This has nothing to do with justifying Huawei or anyone else for that matter. You need vendor support to access certain features of your hardware this is also true for Sony, Samsung or e.g. Lenovo.

The H8 HAS some open features. Huawei DID allow to unlock the bootloader. But from then on, it's up to the devs to actually produce these AOSP-roms. If they don't find the H8 interesting enough to actually produce ROMs then you shouldn't blame Huawei. Again this also applies to Samsung, Sony, HTC or anyone else for that matter. You can't expect Huawei to produce an AOSP-rom since their sales are dependent on the uniqueness of EMUI. Just as you shouldn't expect a Samsung without their "Samsung Experience". It is indeed unfortunate that Huawei closed down the unlock-website but this is due to not gaining enough interest from devs.

As for Windows 10, my prime OS on my PC is Windows 7. But since I'm also into VR (oculus rift) I recently had to install Windows 10 to access the new Oculus Home features. I don't need to be angry about that. I understand that Microsoft wants to generate sales and want their customers to move forward with the new OS. Despite my personal dislike of it's UI. Just as I understand that Android needs to evolve and improve. Unfortunately Android evolves too fast since vendors obviously can't keep up, hence the many request for Oreo (and soon Pie) for device X or Y. I personally don't care and understand that a 300 euro's device will get less upgrades than a 900 euro's model. My H8 works fine on Android 6 and I see no reason to upgrade. Most o/t new features or not that necessary or are already implemented through manufacturer's UI's. Therefore I just can't understand why people are always so upset about not having the latest and greatest.

Cheers

I have updated my FRD-L09 today in the morning via HiSuite. So far everything is flawless! Besides, my AnTuTu score went from 103k to 132k after the update. And overall the phone feels more snappier now. Really like the update & happy that it has finally arrived after so many months of waiting and speculations. :)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pirx73:

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] CastagnaIT:
I have installed Oreo via Hisuite, finally released in Italy but i have a problem,

the Notification bar it is filled by various apps notifications that system say: "(name of the app) displaying over other Apps"

I have not found a way to disable these alerts...missing option to disable (on-off slide)

The notification is like this:

But when tap no options disables the notification..somebody has found how to do it?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ayush rao:
Look man the arguments you were making about the drivers and optimizations were all valid till oreo. Treble changes that. We don't need vendor support to get a FULLY working stable ROM anymore which is why everybody wants oreo so bad, even more than nougat. AOSP ROMs by openkirin have already proven that they are more battery efficient and are equally stable.

The proprietary camera software can be ported over to these AOSP ROMs and stuff like the smart key is already working on the latest LOS beta by openkirin.

There are several people like you who just want things to work and don't care about having the most up to date software and I can get that but that doesn't mean you come to a thread having SOLELY people who want an update and start arguing about why we should shut up.

Also Honor had to provide devs with kernel source code which they didn't and they are largely the reason there wasn't any development. I understand what you meant by Honor not being interested in helping to or developing an AOSP ROM but as per the GPL they have to atleast post their kernel source code.

Finally, Honor didn't stop bootloader unlocking because there wasn't any interest in modding their phones. The reason is largely unknown.

I don't mean to start a fight and let's just celebrate that our phones are finally receiving the oreo update!

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] b1tt1:
Really short "review": Some nice features, but nothing spectacular. Definitely better than earlier Emui, though. Battery life the same (and I didn't even do a factory reset after upgrade). I haven't come up with any showstoppers. But just like with previous Emui, Huawei has replaced some nice new features of Oreo (especially with notifications) with their own more limited implementation.

All in all, it was worth the upgrade, but my phone definitely doesn't feel "new" after upgrading (which was to be expected, of course). No complaints, I'm happy I upgraded.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wagierek:
A little bit more animations here and there, completely new settings (doesn't feel like an improvement actually, you have to learn the new layout again even though there was nothing wrong with the old one), not working TWRP, new launcher icons. I'm using it since yesterday so I can't tell much about it, but there's one great new feature - you can remember every password you input on your Google account.
