Hey, Honor 5X (KIW L24) Gets the Mashmellow Update in the US

Starting today, we are pleased to begin rolling out the highly anticipated Marshmallow update in the US. As part of this update, Honor 5X will also be receiving EMUI 4.0.

Is there anyway to force update it? Update is not showing up when I manually check in settings.
Super pumped to take marshmallow for a spin

I haven't been able to update either... I guess we just have to wait.

Update does not appear here too!

More: http://www.hihonor.com/us/blogs/honor-5x-gets-the-marshmallow-update/130547/

Forced update dial code *#*#2846579158#*#* does not work, fyi...

Between here, Honors' .com site and their US Facebook,
I don't see a Single user reporting the update.
Edit: I see one on Facebook, lol

If anyone gets the update or finds a download link please post here.

In the Facebook thread there's a guy named Mario who got it. The only confirmed one to get it so far if you guys want to try and teach him how to capture the OTA.

Will the update boot on a custom recovery?

I think you will end up stuck at boot logo. You'll probably want to return to stock first.
Has anyone received this update yet? Seems like a unicorn.

Hopefully someone will make a twrp flasheable zip right away. If not I will try by flashing stock recovery and see what happens. ?

While I have some American here with this phone. Im trying to get andriod pay to work. I was wonder if we used the NFC sim card from Verizon which is made with mobile payments in mind, would the phone recognize it. If anyone has an leads on this, can you please point me in the right direction?

this phone does not have NFC, and what does this have to do with the MM update ?

ok champ before you get all wired,
1. I know the phone does not come with an NFC chip in it.
2. I know this thread is for the MM update that Honor USA is lying about releasing.
3. I have already search about this in other threads, obviously to no avail.
4. Do you have input/ or are looking to bust somebodies chops on the internet.

Defensive much?
Let me answer your question about the NFC Sim, probably not. Probably not for all the tea in China. And this thread is about capturing the MM update which did come out because people on FB are confirming they got it.

it's a GSM phone that doesn't support Verizon or NFC what else is their to say ?
user on XDA got the update through hisuite >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/how-to/guide-kiw-l24-to-stock-t3318268/page10

Maybe, the person who got it through HiSuite, can check the app data folder on Windows to see if the update is still there. (it's a hidden folder)

Security patch

Just got new OTA today for Osprey 2GB 1540 got January 1 2017 security patch. I was shocked this is the first OTA I have gotten on my wifes phone since we did the initial OTA update when we bought it to get 6.0. Did anyone else get it? Build # MPIS24.65-25.1-14

I was prompted with a Jan 2017 patch update this morning as well. Osprey, 2GB, 1540 model. Update Version: 24.211.14.en.US (from the system update notice)
I haven't accepted it yet.

I am using XT1541 1GB model and I went back to stock ROM with stock Recovery few weeks ago . I recieved two security updates one after another which I acceptede an disntalled succesfully . However I am not sure if you have a custom recovery and whether they will be compatible with customer recovery . One of them was security update an dsecodn one included support for security+ unicode 8 support in text messages or something like that

usually they wont work with custom recovery. Nice to see they are at least giving us security patches, since we wont get 7.0 officially. (as of now anyway)

Well, just over a year of phone uptime, haha. I was seeing how long it would go before crapping out, and now Motorola wants to give us security updates from the past year and 3 months.
I'm not sure I'll give this phone another year of use to try again.

I received it as well for my XT 1540. See this. Still have not updated; waiting to find enough time time to restore pre-rooted ROM and rebuild. I am interested in others (with a rooted stock ROM) experience in flashing latest OTA.

Can anyone provide flashable zip of this update?

There is no such thing.

I received the security patch, switched to stock recovery before trying to install, but was unsuccessful, I have root/xposed so it seems you need to have an unmodified system partition to work
anyone knows a way to apply the ota successfully without flashing stock system first, or at least a way to get rid of the annoying notification, prompting for the update?

I was successful updating my rooted stock ROM. But I did have to flash a pre-rooted ROM first. See this.

Hello guys!
I updated my moto g TE (xt1556), to january security patch, but I'm having problem to install xposed, after install stuck on warning bootloader, anyone more having this issue? or any idea how can I fix that?

I've installed the update on my XT1541 (non-rooted), but I'm not too happy about it. Had twice issues with network connectivity and it generates a bugreport every 2 hours or so. Haven't had the time to look at a report to see what crashes...

Does updating to this impact Adhell2 installs? Will it re-enable all of the bloat that I've disabled already?

I installed this update this morning and I received "Android. System. UI has stopped working" every time my phone tried to boot.
I thought that Substratum StatusBar Icons for Samsung was causing the issue. I was able to boot into safe mode one time and uninstalled Substratum StatusBar Icons, thinking that this would fix my boot issue. My issue was not fixed and I was not able to boot into Safe Mode again without receiving the "Android. System. UI has stopped working" error every time.
I installed Samsung Galaxy S8+US Unlocked Firmware XAA Version Live!!! (https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s8+/how-to/galaxy-s8-xaa-version-live-t3613013) so that i can get my phone working again.
Can anyone point me in the right direction on re-installing the updated T-Mo firmware?

I don't get it, why we didn't receive September patch, especially if it is the end of the month and T-Mobile had enough time to do it. It is possible that they are planning to release 7.1.1 update soon as Note 8 has...

EDIT: are updates suppose to cause a dead pixel? after updating i got a dead pixel on my screen :\

Anyone know if this update I just got today will break root ability? When checking the site it says "security fixes". Here's a screenshot of update.

I dont think we will see 7.1.x because Oreo is already under development and should be release in a month or 2.

In a month or so, there could be a beta program. I don't think that Samsung will be able to make Android 8 available globally earlier than late December or even in the new year. I personally do want to see the update sooner than later

In case anyone was wondering, I just decided to test it myself. Before applying the update I re-enabled all of the packages because I read elsewhere that people had an issue if certain Samsung system apps were disabled. I did not uninstall AdHell2, just re-enabled all of the packages. The update went by without any problems and I then disabled all of the packages I want removed from the running system after the update.
The only thing I had to do to get back to my same modified config was re-run the ADB commands to restore the mobile data toggle.

No there shouldn't be a dead pixel from the update.

At last, US variant FRD-L04 receives Oreo

Finally, we FRD-L04 /L14 users will be receiving EMUI 8 (Oreo) within a month time after Honor/Huawei approved B560 update today evening as well as the EMUI 5 (NOUGAT) roll back package B398.
for those whom unlocked their bootloaders; don't forget to relock in order to receive FOTA.
Enjoy it
Nitrowarez.

Damn, it came 2 weeks after I've already upgraded my phone ?

Did you use HiSuite?

I was able to update using HiSuite - running EMUI 8.0 now. The phone updater did not show any updates, but my IMEI was always a few weeks behind in getting updates.

updating now.,

Make sure the device has more than 2.5gb free

Of course it was finally released. I'm supposed to have my new Oneplus 6T delivered today. LOL! I have to say though that I did enjoy my time with my Honor 8. I'd still be using it for a while if the battery hadn't recently gone to crap.

Hello all. Just wondering if there was anyone else still waiting on the Android 8 update? It's April 2019 and I still haven't received it yet. I even tried connecting my phone to my computer through Hi Suite, and it tells me I'm running the latest update. I'm still on Android 7 with EMUI 5. Not sure what's going on. I'd love to get the update though. Any suggestions?

Calm down, this is beautiful for FRD-L04 users, but unfortunately you will receive just B562 update after oreo, then it's the end. End of software support i mean. Honor is making strange things, continuosly update security patches on nougat while forgetting about oreo...as FRD-L09 user (running Oreo since it was officially launched a lot of time ago) i can assure that i've not received any other ota update after oreo and i should manually update even to B562

Same boat here. Been using my device stock from day one and finally got an itch to look into any update past Android 7. Found this thread so I installed Hisuite. Sure don't care what-so-ever for their EULA in their app. It's no wonder folks worry about the security of Huawei devices when you have to give up so much just to get a software update. Anyway I states I too have the latest available updates. For such a great phone hardware wise it feels like a shame how little updates it really got during it's life. Ah, well it still is functionally fine for now so I'll carry on as is.

Does anyone know how I can go to EMUI 8?
I've tried OTA, HiSuite, and Firmware flasher. None of these methods work. Firmware flasher, however does find the EMUI 8.0 upgrade, but even if I proxy the download, it won't show up in OTA update. If I download, it won't flash. Any ideas?

June 2020 Security update for Mi A2 is now available

It's 24,19 MB for me, seems like it's only the security update once again.

Official fastboot ROM link published here and here . Have not seen official full OTA Update yet.

Same Size update has been pushed on my A2 too. I'm from India.

Updating via OTA in Portugal. The update is 24,19 MB in size.

><iaomi are no longer interested in fi><ing bugs for this device.

Somehow you were suggested to download full 11.0.11.0 OTA (it's size is 1.34Gb) instead of incremental 11.0.10.0 -> 11.0.11.0 OTA (24,19Mb).
While http://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?device=1700353 still points to full 11.0.10.0 OTA .... probably some dummy instead of updating link in Community Web server accidentally updated link in OTA server ?

Hi all. I've recently updated my newly acquired A2 to Android 10 from Pie. I tether my phone for many hours per day but the phone's Data Usage measurement of Hotspot & tethering is only ~20MB when I know I've used a few GB for the same date period. I don't know if this is a problem introduced in Android 10 or a problem that was there with Pie, as I've only recently started to use the phone. Does anyone else have this problem or know what's going on? thanks

Android 10 version of Mi A2 still has all bugs from January it was realeazed, they don't fix anything. The only thing that maybe they have fixed is the performance. So I guess another bug.

Yes. It's such a shame - it's a well made and good value phone, but these small bugs make it annoying to use. Going custom is probably the best solution, but I don't think I'm ready for that jump yet. The choice of budget to mid range phones has increased a lot in the last couple of years, and Xiaomi no longer have the market to themselves, so it's their loss.

Does anybody have patched boot image?

There in information about call recording added in this update for MI A2. True?

@jorikello, I've applied the June update but there is no recording option when I make a call. Perhaps it's region specific because of local laws on recording - I am in the UK.

Somebody to report call recording availability after June update? I have not this option unfortunately... For me it's important functionality update.

I can confirm call recording is not available in France.

No call recording in Singapore either.
