Android Oreo - Information from Honor Support - Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

I received the following information from Swiss Honor support:
Dear Mr. K***r,
thank you very much for contacting Honor on this matter, I am happy to be of assistance.
Currently all smartphone manufacturer are in the process to adapt Oreo for their devices. Right now Honor is within the test process to see how our EMUI and Android Oreo are working on our devices. Will it improve the user satisfaction because we can provide a better performance, how will it affect the processes in general and the battery life circle? These are just a few things we have to check.
When we see that the performance of our Honor 8 will improve under Oreo 8 and EMUI 8 then an upgrade will be developed. First there will be a Beta version which we will provide to a small circle of user, after their reviews and possible bug fixes, the quality management will enable the upgrade for a roll out. Please be aware that the roll out itself will take up to 8 weeks with 4 waves of roll outs to all devices which are not purchased via a provider like T-Mobile, Salt oder A1.
These devices will get their upgrade from their providers as they further develop their own version of Android 8 and EMUI 8. So all Provider devices will get the possible upgrade later.
Please don‘t hesitate to contact us by e-mail for further information.
Best regards,
Manuela Müller

Can I have image proof of this email? We're on EMUI 5, not 7.

Sounds like a support person that may actually know what they're talking about.

They must fix the lag when you scroll down the status bar, it's annoying

I hope this is true.
I don't want to be a spoiler but Honor 8 Pro (HiSilicon Kirin 960, the same as Huawei P10 that was Oreo confirmed) was already confirmed but Honor 8 (HiSilicon Kirin 950) was never confirmed.
So I will keep my expectations low and hope for a good surprise.

I do not have a problem with the status bar but I have a screen dimming, for example in Opera. And not always.

I see the dimming of the screen as the biggest problem for the long term!

EMUI 8 - looks like they decided to align Android and EMUI version numbers. Seems reasonable

I'm afraid nothing of Oreo. They are now focused on newer devices. Only i would like to solve the battery drain and dimming the screen problem if possible. Got L09 Europe version.

Is A2017G Getting Nougat At All?

I'm just noticing that the US version's are getting nougat recently, but since they had they're beta tests before ours I guess that's why they are getting it now, so should we be looking at the end of February for nougat to be on ours?
Sent from my ZTE A2017G using Tapatalk
Historically the G model was always about one month behind in features and updates, so you can expect a Nougat update in ~2-3 weeks
Thing is, I prefer to wait till most of the bugs have been cleared... Cuz it seems that there are quite a few, people are not very happy with this new release.
Yesterday I decided it wasn't worth the wait and went with Lineage - looks great so far!

To be honest the offical Nougat update is really dissapointing/not worth the waiting time. It´s like going back to B03 in terms of bugs+really bad system performance just with a new android version. I flashed LOS 14.1. Had already completly forgotten how smooth it runs and even more important how much battery it preserves...
Anybody have any updates on when the Nougat update might be available? Are we still 2-3 weeks off?
This is also the question I'm asking.
I really don't want to bother rooting the phone, I've done all that in the past, these days I just want to use the phone.

Seems like A2017G gets nougat at the start of MWC. Can't post links here. Just search for official twitter of ztemobile Germany and see at last post. (You have to click on the picture)
Gesendet von meinem ZTE A2017G mit Tapatalk
Wonder if that's just Germany, of all EU?
Mike
A2017G is A2017G. When it comes for Germany, you'll be able to flash it with built in updater with no problems.
Still nothing in France.
Still nothing in ireland
Perhaps they are waiting for the official announcement for Google Assistant now being released for 3rd party phones? Perhaps the A2017G is pencilled to get it.

=> MWC should have begun by now. Someone in Barcelona right now to confirm the statement made by ZTE itself? They should be speaking about the G version since it happens in Europe.

What that statement says is that the visitors will be able to see the phone working with Nougat, nothing else. It can be the U version for all we know.
That's why it would be interesting if someone is at MWC and could tell us exactly what we can expect in the coming hours / days / week.
I myself bought both Axon 7 and Daydream viewer just to get my hands on Daydream and I begin to be impatient about a clear statement about Daydream coming on G version of this phone. We read everything on this forum just because nobody knows... So, at the MWC, after ZTE has teased about Daydream on Twitter, we could probably get some clearer answers from there.

[J53Gxx] Looking for OneUI ROM

Got this phone from a friend of mine for free.
Is there any OneUI ROM?
Installed LOS16 and Evolution X and it works fine.
So One UI should work just fine too..

If you own j5 2015
Never think about Samsung pie on your phone
J5 is so weak to have it
Existe temas da one ui que pode ser instalado em praticamente qualquer rom baseada na touchwiz, acho que é uma das melhores soluçoes.

I noticed a lot struggles in some Samsung phone which got the official update. It's quite heavy I think.
I'll just stay happy with LOS16 and Evolution X

Um,
This is J5's thread so I didn't bothered to mention it.
Maybe you meant the variants.
I've edited it in the thread.
Thanks for pointing out

J530x is 2017 model j500x is 2015 model. Both have different chipsets so those ROMs won't work for you
