[Q] Updating P8 - Huawei P8 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone! I have a P8 with build number of GRA-L09C368B184. I want to know if it is possible to update it to Marshmallow or at least 5.1.1? If so, would you mind helping me out? Thanks in advance.

It is possible, but 5.1.1 and 6.0 are betas for P8, and may cause some problems.

I see. Thanks. Have you tried it yourself?

I had 6.0, most annouin issues:
- battery drain (I had to charge after 8 hours, earlier it was ~15 hours)
- little laggy during browersing internet (scrolling)
- no root
After one day I wanted back to stabe 5.0, but downgrade isn't so simple (now there is a rollback package to downgrade).

ALE-L21 with B183 upgrade to Marmallow assistance?

Hi Guys,
Long time android user here, I bought the P8lite ALE-L21 a month ago, and have been thoroughly enjoying my experience with the phone so far. When I purchased the phone, it had (and currently does have) the Lollipop 5.0.1 ROM build B183 preloaded into it. I have since unlocked the phones bootloader and rooted it, as per the course with new android phones
I've read numerous threads here regarding the upgrade to the Marshmallow beta, and have been stumped as to how to get the darn ROM flashed to my device.
I've tried using the EMUI manual updater to flash B188 over as a stepping stone to the beta, and also tried updating straight to the beta to no avail.
I'm thinking that I may have to downgrade in an attempt to get B188 on there, but I'm unsure as to which build to flash.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

And battery life sucks. 25% gone over night
I'm using it on my P8 for 3 days and the battery life is very good. I'm getting screen on time between 4 and 5 hours. Don't use official Facebook app because it's slowing it down too much and drains the battery very quickly.
Use this guide

Today i got an email from Huawei saying that there won't be official Nougat update because they have done some testing and this is better for our device but they will continue improving the current available version of Android.
Nougat p8
this thing does not make sense because it should update the mate's p8 is not because they have the same hardware
