Hi Folks,
Sharing the good news about the honor beta testers recruitment. Got this Google form for the same through trusted channels and is prepared by our fellow member Abhishek @amulbaby on XDA. A big thanks to him in putting his efforts in preparing this form.
Did someone just say EMUI 6.0 :fingers-crossed:

As the image gives a glimpse (also prepared by Abhishek), It is for Android Nougat upcoming updates and above so we can expect the Oreo update, though I am not confirming anything about it but we can expect this (at least)
Form includes below devices so wish we get for all of them, at least future Nougat bug fix updates and security updates if not Oreo.
Honor 5C
Honor 6X
Honor 8
Honor 8 Lite
Honor 8 Smart
Honor 8 Pro
Fill out the form and Enjoy.

Title updated as this form is limited to India only. Will check more on this and confirm.
Even though limited to India but as India variant may get the update, we can wish others will get as well.
So others can fill as well, it wont harm anything
rip india only.... but atleast they will port it then to other variants also 5c is in list so it will most likely get it right? also lastest 5c update kinda make apps unstable, randomly just shuts down like once in a week.... not big issue but if you do banking and stuff its kinda annoying....

Form is for India only but not the update.

Yes, 5c will get it, at least based on the form.

That's a good news. I can hardly believe Sony's developers are so quick because the first lollipop update was delayed for about 2 months.
Very good news. But I heard that it will be delayed until august

Wishful Thinking: Implementing the camera 2.0 api
Sony said they are concidering the new API if people want it.
Which i do because college work...
Looks like sony is 5 months ahead of schedule for 5.1
Though then again 4.2,4.3 and 4.4 were faster then expected

Since certification we have to wait at least two months like it was with 5.0.2 Lollipop, so the earliest ETA we can expect Android 5.1.x is July 2015

I hope they update camera binaries to support Camera2 api. I don't have to have RAW, manual exposure would be sufficient. How hard can it be?

Perhaps shutter speed
Quite a few other devices have atleast one of these two

However it is expected to get released for Honor 8 by 2017 only.
If it is releasing on 3rd November, and Honor 8 will be the first to get it, then how do you think it will take almost 2 months to get to it.
Sent from my FRD-L04 using Tapatalk
Hope it's 7.0 (or 7.1, but probably not).

Read it again. "First device in the Honor brand to get the EMUI update"
The Mate 9 is going to be released the same day, so it's probably going to get it first.
I think we may see a beta after a month
Multiuser back. Nice ?

It needs to get customized for Honor 8 in terms of carriers, sponsors, region specific apps, beta testing, then we will get it. So it will take almost 2 months.

It will be indeed released to Huawei devices first. I didn say no for it. I just said that Honor 8 will be the first device which will get EMUI 5 in the "Honor branded mobiles".
Honor is the Sub-brand of Huawei and Huawei != Honor.
Anyway this means it will come with some bugs, as it is expected. I just hope they're not too many and deal breaking.
Mate 9 will be a showcase of EMUI 5, it may not be fully ready but it will be ready faster than we think

If those bugs are found at beta testing, then they might fix it before the public release.
No, there will be bugs released in the final OTA still. Looking back I would say it will take 2~3 releases, including OTA, to get fully stable and complete.
Livestream just ended. No info about EMUI on phones other than the Mate 9.
It is interesting to see that on the official Huawei introducing EMUI 5 video there is no app drawer (1:25)
On the other hand all the first hands on videos shows there is:
It's optional. You can enable it in the settings

So, no idea when there will be official release, but it seems stable. It is very similar to the P10's firmware at this point.
Update: The chinese version includes Google Play Services out of the box. Interesting.
Then Huawei's statement about "Phones on EMUI 5.0 won't be getting 5.1" is utter bull****? Nice going there Huawei! >< Are there any changes in the Camera App, enabling the Pro Video mode? Would you mind seeing how it does the GPS, with Galileo as well? Does it see more, then 1 EU satellite?

Yes, it's utter bs. EMUI 5.1 is definitely coming. Any build above 300 will be labelled as EMUI 5.1.
Regarding your other questions, if I have time to try I will.

Thanks, work with that German fella from the GPS thread to log the output and see if it's changed. To test the camera, well try zooming 1.1x and see if the quality and sharpness improves. Was a 'bug' on some firmwares.
any idea when is going to be available for the chinese version non rooted?
Do you know if it will include Android 7.1.2 for final release??
i was comparing emui 5.1 to my mate 9 pro emui 5.0 and i don't really see any visual differences. even the new gestures on one hand ui is already in emui 5.0.
Still on December security update here lol

But still don't know, if P9 gets it too or only Hisi 960 and Hisi 95x getting that smaller patch.

Does the version matter? You can have a Chinese version too, if you want! I'm sure Emui 5.1 is much better , then 5.0. That ought to be enough arguments in favor of the new version for now

Yes, I am specifically looking to have the ability of
Hiding apps,
Removing the navigation bar when using the navigation circle,
Double tap when driving,
Customisation,
Better Dock and home screen,
and Softtouch
as this gem is capable of all of them. Otherwise for a few "Bugs fixed" and "Security patches" wouldn't wanna see another 1GB of storage and memory wasted.
Plus the Chinese version has a different story and nothing to do with the international version. That is why it matters.

In an interview with Honor CEO, George Zao, he confirms which devices will be receiving the Oreo update, including the Honor 8.
Unfortunately I can't post a link, but here is the confirmation below. You should be able to find yourself the link online, or it is available on the Honor 8 Reddit forum.
MONDO MobIT: Which models will Android Oreo come in yet?
George Zao : "The tests are in progress, and the device list is not final, but we are trying to expand it as much as possible. For now, I know that Oreo will soon be on Honor 8, Honor 8 Pro, Honor 9, Honor V9, but also some other Honor smartphones. "
Here is the link to the reddit post that links to the article which which is in serbian btw:

All Honor and Huawei Devices will get treble support because Huawei already seperates driver etc. And the OS on two different partions("vendor partion") So its very easy for them to support treble. Other manufacturers like OnePlus and Nokia dont do that, thats why they dont get treble support. But we will get treble support for sure.
wait is on then..,

I have the impression that there won't be any Beta testing for Oreo, unlike Nougat. If there is one, please keep us updated so I can register!

Well, since Lenovo tookover Moto, they have been the same as well, Stock android with lazy updates. When Asus announced this device, I thought they would be serious with midrange phones, but alas, same old Asus. Fake promises, Lazy updates, poor customer service.
