T-Mobile OP8 11.0.1.3.IN55CB Update - OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

This update just came out today. Patch notes state April security patch and "general" improvements. I installed it and surprise surprise, STILL no Always-On Display (AOD) 6 months after unlocked version got it. Lesson learned, never buying a carrier branded device again.

No issues with the update otherwise I take it?

This is why I finally did a bootloader unlock and flashed the international software. Now I'm on the beta have a more up to date security update and all the features.

It's as stable as any of the other Android 11 updates. Rarely it loses bluetooth connection to my car but it's been like that for me since the first Android 11 update. Launcher still stops responding for 15 seconds if I try to lock the screen right after disabling work profile. That's been a problem since the first Android 11 update too though.

Are you on Tmo? Still getting 5g service? I need to switch from this new update to a global ROM - any advice on which steps to take?

Check this thread to convert to global. Happy modding!

US Tablet User - Can I get to Nougat?

Hi all, I'm a US user with W09 and would like to get it to Nougat - I have read the entire "Update to EMUI 5.0" thread and there appeared to be several possible routes, but most were regarding the European version.
I have a US Wi-Fi model and have no allegiance in keeping it a US one, if there's a way to remove the regional aspect to gain access to the update (BETA or otherwise).
I would greatly appreciate if someone who has some experience with or is very confident of the correct path would shed some light for me.
Thank you!
Have you tried update via Firmware Finder? Witch firmware version do you have now?

I've just finished reading the entire thread linked above that mentions that method a number of times, so I'm certainly familiar with it, but haven't tried it because sprinkled throughout that thread are plenty of issues encountered. Also, there's no mention of US hardware/firmware specific instructions.
I'm on W09 as mentioned in the OP - thanks for the reply!

I'm away from my tablet at the moment but will do later on when I get home.
We will see after that what we can do. I have updated my tablet to Nougat, but I have BTV-DL09 (4G European version).
To change region I think you have to unlock bootloader.

Here's what's in firmware finder @33adi
What's the advantage to switching from US to EU roms? I unlocked, rooted, enabled 5ghz band for wifi, and now only need nougurt but much like the original poster not sure the best route.

The advantage of removing the US stock rom is that the European one has a beta available that is very stable. My thread is seeking someone who's confident of the steps to 1st going European & 2nd installing nougat once there, as there was some debate of complexity to doing even that.
I've been through exactly what you are wanting to do @dutchdoggs54 . Unfortunately I can't tell you step by step how I got to where I'm at.
I was on W09128BXXX out of the box . Read the topic that you have linked in your first post and decided to do it using firmware finder to force the update to Nougat as they described. It actually went very well and Nougat worked great with the exception of Bluetooth not working.
I have to say during the upgrade when it booted into recovery and it was TWRP I was concerned. Believe it had an error but it worked and replaced TWRP as I recall with a stock recovery.
So after all that I decided I wanted my tablet branded as a BTV-W09C100B006. Below is the topic where a member thought they bricked their tablet.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-m3/how-to/bricked-m3-btv-w09-t3612699
They were given directions to download the Full update package for the version I just mentioned.
This member got their tablet working again and in the process found that 5Ghz wifi is enabled on C100B006 by default.
That was the main reason I rooted my tablet.
I followed the directions knowing I force install a different version of Nougat from your link.
Downloaded the full version software and dropped it in the dload folder on my US tablet and did the upgrade.
Tablet rebooted and shortly after it rebooted again going to recovery (I tried may times to boot). Don't recall the error but after I unlocked my bootloader again it reset the tablet and I was able to access it again. I did relock the bootloader so I can see updates without any problems after that.
In the end I got what I was after. My tablet shows as a BTV-W09C100B006 and can check for updates.
5Ghz wifi is enabled by default. As I said I relocked the bootloader so I'm not rooted. Overall it's works so well I'll wait for Nougat to get released and then do the official upgrade. After the scare of booting to recovery it was worth every nervous minute of it.
Try to talk to OP from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/...-root-t3374068
Maybe he can make this app available to Mediapad M3, then changing OEMINFO will be easy.
I posted a question there.
No luck
Ok, so I tried following @Samavb's great instructions and guidance in the other thread last night. Made it all the way to the point where he says to install 009 from the Huawei website - got it downloaded and loaded up on the tablet only to find that it wouldn't install because the 009 file on the website is BTV-DL09 not the BTV-W09 version a US tablet would need.
So I got frustrated and tried installing the B301 build that appeared on firmware finder when I was on the W09-006 build...this was nougat and was cool but no keyboard and the play store wouldn't install anything, so I was forced to revert back to 006.
So, long story short, hours of work have confirmed that there doesn't appear to be a way to get a US tablet to fully functional Nougat at the moment. If there was a 009 or 010 build like Samavb mentions for the US model, maybe it would work, but those aren't anywhere to be found - firmware finder, russian site he mentions or otherwise.
So, I'll happily sit on 006 and wait for a US OTA update. That is unless anyone can tell me exactly how to make this US model into a European model.
Same boat as original poster. US w09 on build c128b003. Firmware finder just finds the same version. Anyone know when there might be a us version update released. I thought it was supposed to be may so have been waiting patiently.....but may is over.

In Firmware Finder select the menu in the top left corner. (3 bars)
Right below your model number, select change model and enter BTV-W09C100 and then search.
You should see B301 and it's a full OTA. However, as I understand it this is just a beta/test release.
Only issue I had with it, bluetooth didn't work. Seeing as how I don't use it, didn't bother me.
I highly recommend you fall back to the other topic about forcing the upgrade to Nougat.
Only difference from my tablet and yours. I was on C128B002. I had already rooted and couldn't get that update.
Also US 64gb version here and hoping for an update to Nougat and EM5. Would love to see it!
Huawei have been quite attentive for updates in other markets which is great. Too bad the non-LTE version in US doesn't get the same love.
Buying this tablet was a roll of the dice for me, banking on the hope that Huawei would be attentive to software updates (for all markets) and custom ROMs could serve as back up/enjoyment. This tablet has solid hardware and with another launcher it is decent.
Sadly, my experiment to try out a non-Nexus device without the latest (or close to pure) Android version is coming to an end. The last M3 sold on Swappa went for around $300.

from what i gather. if you're going from MM to Nougat, you need to install the Full OTA. for that, there are 2 files, you will need both of them. from there, i'm not sure.

Mate 9 MHA-L09C316

Hi Guys
Just picked my new Huawei mate 9. So far so good..
But i have an issue with updates. My version is MHA-L09C316B150. Im checking for updates but the update system says i have the latest version.. I checked on this thread that the oreo update is out. Will i be able to update my phone to the MHA-L09 version listed here?
Also can someone explain what the C316 is? I see there is C33, C632 etc
Just to add, my device has the last security update from Jan 2017.. Wtf.. Why has no further updates been done..
Value after C in build number is region/localization.
List of known regions is here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/regions-mate-9-region-codes-t3555086
But I didn't find C316.
Where are you from? Is your phone selling in stores or you got it from mobile operator by contract?
You can see available stock ROMs for your phone in Firmware Finder. Enter model MHA-L09C316 in search.
I did it, but FF did not find anything about your region. There are two options: stock ROMs for C316 are existing, but FF does not know where are they. Or Huawei did not post them to HiCloud.
If I have had phone with rare region, I will rebrand it to more popular region. It is too hard process for newbie. You have to read about unlock bootloader, TWRP, patched recovery, different models and regions. But staying on region C316 you may not receive any update even. By my experience, Huawei updates popular regions and does not care operator's versions.
As alternative you can ask provider (if phone by contract), write to Huawei or wait for update.
@ 5[Strogino] Thanks for feedback
Im from South Africa and yes the phone is on contract. Network is Vodacom which is part of Vodafone.. I dont understand why this stupid network didnt issue the international region as most phones come with European software installed or even middle east areas. I agree with you, i will have to rebrand my device. I have done flashing on samsung and LG phones but this is my first Huawei.. will read up on some posts and attempt.
was trying to update with Huawei updater 2.0 and hisuite, no luck.. gives me no internet connection error.. tried editing hosts file too but no luck

It's an official beta, but still a beta.
Oreo for Mate 9 should arrive in December or January for everyone.
Right now you can only install beta by applying in Huaweis beta app, or cheat and use Hwota as you did
It's a very stable beta.

new firmware Versions in "Firmwarefinder for Huawei"

Hi,
I have an Huawei P10 Plus Dual SIM VKY-L29C636 with the current running Firmware VKY-L29C636B172
The last update was in November 2017 since then I don't get any new Updates displayed in the settings.
I downloaded the App "Firmwarefinder for Huawei" and it shows me the following newer Firmware Versions:
VKY-L29C636B210
VKY-L29C636B211
Does anyone use this new Versions?
Should I update to one of this new Versions?
Just check firmware access see if you approved to update. My FF already shows B301 which is Oreo but denied access when checking it.
Depends where you live. I got tge same phone and I don't have access to download and update.

The latest model is 211 and you can install it via HWOTA. I don't know anyone using this version. But probably there were no changes after all. Only simple performance tweaks. Otherwise software already stable.
For me latest firmware is 321 however says not authorised to download it..
I've installed the new Version VKY-L29C636B212
It has the Android Security Patches from January 2018
The first thing I discovered, that the phone runs a lot smoother, espacally when scrolling websides in Firefox.
The secound thing I discovered, is that the phone has more free ram, old Version round about 3,6GB, the B212 has 4,5GB free ram.
This are the first impressions, if i discover more, I let you know.

You download full OTA or OTA?
I did the Full OTA, but be carefull there are 2 Versions!
The Version with "PV" didn't work and almost bricked my Phone. I had to load an older Version thru recovery to get it back working.
The Version "FullOTA-MF" is working fine, I only had to wipe the cache and make an Factorydefault after updating, because the phone was in
a boot loop.
My Phone is running fine with the Version 212 and has now a way better Batterylife :good:

Ota would come from your Huawei updater in over a week or so. Just update it if you authorised.
Now I have Updated to Oreo :good:

The Phone is using the Treble Project (see screenshot).
Why is there only one partition, does this mean that fast Updates are not working?

You have to have 3 partition for treble.. And even tho Huawei said p10 plus supports treble it's not the case. Or maybe need to do full factory reset so new firmware will partition correctly im not sure

UK Fingerprint rom question

If i install the UK fingerprint version here . Will the update still come to my phone? I see they have new updates now and oreo 8 is coming. Will i be able to install those from within the device or will i run into issues?
Also are there any issues using the UK rom over the US rom?
Also are there any better ways to enable the fingerprint sensor without install the UK version?
Does it also void warranty?
Thanks!
I'm in the US & I installed the UK ROM you link to above. It works as advertised. I wondered about receiving the update as well and read through the entire thread. It says you will be able to receive updates and you won't void your warranty since you are flashing official firmware. Of course that is just a post on an internet forum and carries no weight. Other than the warranty does it really matter? You can always update using Flashtool.
Yesterday I updated to 8.0 following this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/x-compact/how-to/stock-8-0-root-recovery-t3747479 and now I have 8.0, my bootloader is unlocked, I have root, adaway, my phone passes safetynet, and most importantly it still works..
There are some subtle differences between N & O that have made it worthwhile. Sorry I can't be of more help, I can only share my positive experience.

if you unlocked your bootloader, while you might be if there is an update, you can't just download and apply it from phone. If you're only interested in major android upgrade, this won't be a problem as at most we probably will only got one more android major version update (or none, it will be close to two years after device release).
If you are interested on monthly security update though, this could be a pain to flash manually each month
So if i just install the UK via the xperia flash tool method here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/x-compact/how-to/fingerprint-reader-version-flash-t3470154) , will i get OTA updates for security patches? Or do i have to manually do it every time?

Yes, you will receive updates as long as you do not tamper with the bootloader or recovery. If for some reason it doesn't work you can always use flashtool to apply an update. The convenience of the fingerprint reader working far outweighs the inconvenience of having to update a phone with a computer.

Can't update Poco M3 after 12.0.11.0

I bought few Poco M3 (for old family member) and after MIUI 12.0.11.0 just one of them is getting 12.5 update (bought all of them from Poco/Xiaomi and all EAA/EU).
What I can do?
Yesterday I call the Xiaomi Support. They said "it's normal, you will get it later". Stable release was 07.03.2022 and 4 weeks later no update here :/

You can't. I send 2 back to Xiaomi and get both with new mainboards and 12.5 update.
Same here, Poco M3 global, still haven't received the update to 12.5 . What is going on?
It's almost September and I am still not getting the 12.5 on the updater app. I am on 12.0.11.0 (QJFEUXM) so its the European version. After trying to flash recovery and fastboot MIUI roms nothing has worked so far with bootloader locked. I have applied to unlock it.

The main issue is, they haven't yet released an OTA for 12.0.11 to any of the 12.5 releases. I think there was a temporary one from 12.0.9 (or so), but not for the EU models I think. At least I can't find it anymore.
At the moment we can only wait and hope for an OTA update.

honestly I'm tired... poco m3 was not the most expensive model but it was not cheap either, I expect a phone on this price range to get at least the next android version. Otherwise what to do the nice specs if I can't have the nice software?

I have no idea whats the problem but I can't update. Xiaomi change the mainboard and now it works
Anyway as said, I'm tired. I will just change xiaomi/poco and get something else next time.
If I wanted subpar software support I could get some unknown brand for less.

The main issue is, they haven't yet released an OTA for 12.0.11 to any of the 12.5 releases. I think there was a temporary one from 12.0.9 (or so), but not for the EU models I think. At least I can't find it anymore.
At the moment we can only wait and hope for an OTA update.

But even trying to download and flashing the oficial ROMs yourself doesn't work. The updater app says "can't verify ROM" or sth and I have tried both EU and global ROMs. My roms are not corrupted and they are for Poco M3 citrus - I am sure. Fastboot flashing via MIUI flash tool also doesn't work. Basically unless you unlock the bootloader nothing seems to work.

does the OTA update work if you unlock the bootlader? I mean by downloading yourself the update.

I don't know. Still waiting for my bootloader unlock permission. I downloaded recovery and fastboot roms only. Plus OTA updates need you to be on specific MIUI versions in order to use them.
