Can someone who's installed this build do me a favor and test out using Google Voice call routing, with "Use Google Voice to make all calls" set? It is broken on my Mate 8 but I heard it works on the Honor 5X

5.11 updated!

Been waiting for this update for months, I got the ota yesterday, and updated right away. Its smoother , the battery last longer(just a feeling), and everything seems pretty good now. Its a definitely worthy update.

I'm in Canada , but I've been in the Huawei official forum for a year. Few days ago, Huawei released an official ROM for mate 7, only you have to register for getting it.
Well, I consider it as the official ROM, not the beta.

I just registered to Huawei forum. Hmm, I don't want to roll back to B127SP03 from b312 beta, because I cannot be sure I would get the ota yet. Maybe the b320 update files will come available for download soon on some forums

Please refer to this link (add a \ in between) cn.club.vmall.com thread-5092235-1-1.html
if you can read chinese
as that post states, if you are one of their internal testing members, you should get your ota soon. But if you installed the leaked version by yourself, you should roll back to the stable version so that you could get the ota (stable version links are posted in that post).
either case, after registration, you will get your ota in one or two business days.
Hope that helps.

Huawei release today, Lollipop 5.1.1 official version... Today Google release official Android 6.0 Marshmallow final M preview for Nexus.

Preview means a bit else, than stable. At this moment nobody is late.
Is this a official release or again some kind of beta program?
I used Google translate but result is not very good I could not understand much.
Should I wait an OTA soon?

I think you can consider it as an official release although it might contain some bugs. I've no idea when huawei will push the update to every mate 7, but I am very sure only if you do a simple quick registration, you will be getting the ota next day.

You could just use the link I provided in an earlier post, and click 请点我( Chinese characters in blue), it redirects you to the register link, of course, you should have a forum username first.

Well, after update, it doesn't have a "beta" in the build number, and the update log seems to be like a normal update log.
At least this update is for "public", there's what Huawei calls it.

here is B320 info. I think B320 is closed beta version.
club.huawei.com thread-4852517-1-1.html (space add /)
The B320 official ROM only for chinese devices, international vision have to be ROOT and need to be modified some system documents to fix the network issues. There are also so many apps will be invalid due to restriction of region.
Where / which folder do I copy the update.zip file to update my Mate 7?
I copied straight to the internal memory of the phone, but local update won't find it.
thanks

Availability of International Firmware (Maybe flashing over Chinese firmware)

So I've noticed that there are some international firmware available online:
http://aria-file.com/?cd=Huawei/M/Mate 8 - NXT
Unfortunately, seems to be all Iranian sites, and they all want money for the downloads.
Anyone see these files out in the wild somewhere? I'd like to try flashing the international firmware over my Chinese firmware.
hm not sure but it looks like im able to download the roms without having to pay. will try again from my laptop (on mobile now) and report back...

nope, false alarm unfortunately, cant access the site either, even with a registered account....bummer!
im sure, additional sources will pop up in due time though
I managed to pay for it and get the latest firmware for both international models. I also successfully converted my Chinese model to an international model, in terms of software. I will write more in a separate post after figuring this out a little more.

Someone tested which Firmware is better the chinese B137 or international B133?
well with B133 theres definitely less hassle configuring the google apps and services also got the world record in geekbench for released mobile devices with other AL10 phones with international firmware getting consistently higher scores than stock al10 and stock l29 phones

still waiting for Marshmallow

Hi,
I have a PLK-L01C432B121 build.
Until now, i cannot get the update to Marshmallow.
Is it normal ?
Do you think i'll have to wait a long time ?
I lives in north africa.
Thanks.
slowly wait
Same here in Greece.. I'm also still waiting for MM.. Currently at PLK-L01C432B180.. No OTA, no nothing..

Yes you're right.
But i wanted as a normal user to get access to this feature.
For now, i still cannot get any update and i got a funny answer from Honor support.
They told me that i have to go to Serbia if i wants to update my honor since i bought it there last year.
But i lives in africa now lol.
So the only remaining solution is the local update when i will finally find the right procedure.

The right procedure would be
Make a backup of all your data, contacts, apps etc using Huawei hisuite.
Download the firmware you want to upgrade to and extract to get UPDATE.APP
Copy it to a folder named dload in your SD card and press and hold power, Vol up and Vol down until phone boots up. Let go of power after booting but keep other two pressed for five six sec more.
It will do a forced upgrade and you will lose all your stuff. Boot into Android, update Huawei backup app and restore your backup using hisuite and you are done.
Hope it helps.
looks clear.
Thank you very much muradulislam
Still in beta. It's not a big of a change from lollipop
sorry folks but after reviewing all my experience with MM (B380) i recommend to update with Lollipop B180 (B190 if available) only!
With B380 it is possible, that you will get some trouble with it! At the moment, B380 was removed from the support side of HONOR!
Maybe it has a reason!
That's a bit sad to hear. But it's full of sense. Thank you.

Most of the users that i know (me included!), did not confirm that!
i own two Honor 7. I tried MM on one of them for four weeks. After this period, i have done a rollback to B190 Lollipop.
Since this moment, all my problems are gone! I could not believe, that HONOR will bring us an trouble-free version of MM.
Really strange that Huawei remains unable to deliver a clean Os. Such a big company with that quality of phones !

i didn’t understand your friendly offer! I had used MM on my phone, so i was able to install MM on it! But i have get the same notification problem with "WhatsApp"
as the other users have reported here! And some of my apps have stopped their work during the night. I had protected these apps against termination in the energy manager, but it doesn't help! I think, it is a problem of the build in MM "deep sleep" functionality! And yes, i had made a factory reset in the beginning of my experiences.
But thx anyway!

Based on the official information from the Australian support page, you should be fine going directly to latest version. Just make sure you use the full update zip file (2GB+) and not the incremental FOTA update (200-500MB).
Personally, I'd recommend updating via the German stream since that dev team appears to have a more active presence for our device. That would mean using the Nougat zip to get to 7.1.1 B01 (I think), then using the FOTA updates to get to B02 then B04.

November 2017 confirmed
There is a kernel in one of the brandnew l09 updates on ff that is absolutely awesome. Its says unreleased on the about kernel but it works so great and has support for power killing apps and best is the fingerprint issue is gone . I took it and rooted it for kangb589.
If someone has a flashable zip that converts al to south america 605 cust and oem info i could create a zip flashable via twrp system , it was already pree rooted r w rw for delevopment.
You didn't answer previous few questions... Did you actually flashed Android O? If yes, any screenshots? If not then say so so people stop expecting..... Lol. Not an issue.....
Yes I used dload method about 3 times before successful and to boot into recovery , facrory reset and I had to use emui 5.0 supersu in the recovery 3.1.1.1 and then it booted , developer options worked also. Just broken wifi , I did not get into testing much , there is a link on asia site talking about the release. It also appears that the l09 is being sold in many more regions now , huawei doesn't communicate at all even with sr beta testers. Just update and hope it doesn't brick is huaweis way of thinking I guess.
I installed it on a l29 that was debranded to DL 17 used stock recovery to factory reset and then installed 3.1.1.1. Basically same thing as how we installed the original beta for noughat.

very interesting info there... in any case, ill hold back until its more stable and functional, just great to know theres still hope for the mate 8 looks like B589 could be the last stable emui 5 rom, so worth flashing in the meantime

Oreo will be cool but my love miss mate 8 has a crappy graffics card , that will hinder the entire os but its projected to release In fall this year.
