Hey
I'm using my Huawei p8 premium (GRA-UL10) for two years now. Last year I upgraded to marshmallow, but not via OTA, I downloaded the update from Huawei's site. Few days ago I read an article about April 1 security patch for my device, I downloaded the update from the site (not the official site), installed it and now everything is running smoothly plus some tweaks.
The p8 gets update every month, but not via OTA, does it should be that way or something is wrong?
may be its gone from server
ota is experimental if users give good it remain
and if faces issues it will removes
what is your current rom version
no man nothing wrong ota is unofficial

Hi everybody, i've recently purchased an Honor 7 PLK-L01 in UK. I'm really satisfied with it and i started to follow those threads on XDA, i'm new to this software by Huawei as i've always had Samsung's phones (i still have my S5) and obviously software updates are different as i've seen. My current firmware is C432B121 but here i found a lots of more updates and intermediates' type of as well and my phone doesn't show any further updates like 130-140-180 and so on. Phone is not rooted and it's brand new. I also knew that it's rolling out MM for us so that's why i did this question. Thanks to everyone could explain a bit. Cheers! :highfive:
there's a full thread about this, with links to all kind of released firmwares
i suggest you start with b130 and see if it automatically detects any further ota update.
when i got mine it was stuck on b120, but after manually updating it to b121 i never had to manually update it again
otherwise you just keep manually updating all the way up to b180. i suggest you don't update to b320 right away since it's officiality is still undergoing debate, it might be old BETA update, perhaps released by mistake. still waiting for official news
anyway, the drill's very easy, you'll find every kind of explanation in the plk-l01 roms' thread.
Hi all.
I just noticed there's new firmware. Has anyone updated yet? In using an XT1572.
I'm rooted etc... So I can't quite simply update.
Should I be flashing the last stock firmware i have and then update? The last fastboot I have is the February patch, but my phone is on the May patch. Whatever firmware i flashed gives me another language in the update notification screen...lol.
Any guidance would be appreciated. Otherwise, I'll just do my thing blindly.

After your post, I rechecked the update service on my phone (xt1572 also). I got also new update here, but right now I cant do update (rooted + xposed). WIll try later, but I suppose that there is just new security patch. Strange that I got another version..
EDIT:
fount out Motowebpage
it look like the only improvements are - September security patch there.
Is the update for India dual sim xt1572?
I've installed the update today. The download size was about 40 MB, so seems to be a small patch indeed. I can confirm that it contains the september security patch, haven't noticed anything else yet.
I do think it's a shame that Moto is lacking so much in the update department lately. This is a security patch of two months ago... Also I would have expected them to have news on Nougat by now, at least for their Moto Z family...
6.0.1 ? at the time of 7.0?

it's not 6.0.1 update it's only security patch, we already had 6.0.1 in eu for a while
Has someone already tried the update with Flashfire? Im Rooted, on Frankenclark and Xposed. Does anyone know if we can get a flashable zip to flash in TWRP? To much work to go back to Stock, update and install everything again. Is the patch it worth?
Sent from my XT1572 using XDA-Developers mobile app
can someone upload full firmware for retasia? thx
We have to wait for Moto to release/leak the firmware image, the OTA zip won't do any good... This usually takes 2-4 weeks, sometimes more, to get the factory image. Be patient.
BTW, it is nothing special, all it does is patch to the Sept 1, 2016, security update, including Dirty Cow (which if you have been following the security threads is pretty much worthless on Lollipop and newer devices anyway)

hi everyone,
since i side loaded Android 8.1 image i didint receive any security update! i check for updates regularly but there is no updates !
what should i do ?
fully stock locked bootloader.
lastest patch 5 january.
I just bought another nexus 6p( was enrolled into beta program ). I did flash the latest image from google, and yeah, seems like the last ota security patch is from january. Can someone confirm this ? I forgot to look at my last nexus 6p.
Latest sec Update february 5th here...but flashed myself due to unlocked and rooted...
I updated to Oreo OTA on Sunday. Have February security patch installed.

do you guyes know to to downgrade to 8.0??
i've manually flashed all the missing updates i think its the only way.
Yeah, something about the beta program of 8.1 froze updates at the January security patch for me as well.
I ended up dirty flashing the release 8.1 system image and everything works fine now, still don't get OTA update notifications though.
A few days ago, I did get the march 5 security update, after flashing this image 8.1.0 (OPM3.171019.016, Mar 2018) from google .
after flashing all the missing updates , OTA updates started to roll out as normal to me
Today, I just got a new firmware update that takes my Honor 7X US version from BND-L24567B140 to B150
Update says only: Google Stagefright: Google security patches are merged to make your device more secure.
Google security patch is updated to latest i.e. March 1.
I got this update even though I am in Mexico on Movistar local SIM and local provider. So it does not seem to depend on location.
I have another Honor 7X with T-Mobile SIM but it did not get the update yet. Still on B140. Maybe it is a staged update over several days.
Nothing really new. Still no news on Oreo update.
Joe
Whicheans Oreo would be rolled in 3-4 months
I got that update yesterday also on the L24. Nothing special which is very disappointing. Got excited for a couple seconds until I read the description
Hello.
So I got the pie ota about a week ago but I didn't update. It was available for a few days but now it is gone.
I'm still on October 5 version.
Phone is all stock - locked bootloader.
Anyone with the same issue? Was that supposed to be the official global rollout so everyone has it now?
Tried some googling but I can't find any similar reports.
Probably removed, had a lot of bugs. Dont worry
