Installed Oreo Beta On Honor 8 Pro at Last! - Honor 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Thanks to 23anand23 for his post (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75120971&postcount=208) on how to update Indian DUK-L09 to Android 8 (unlocked bootloader needed) There is no problem in unlocking the bootloader, it's easy and non tedious job and the bootloader can be easily unlocked later if you want.
Everything is same except the new Oreo features. Also, I heard that it has Project treble support. As we know that Treble makes updates easy, but do you really think we will be getting updates?
[I am using Nova Launcher, so there are two images, one with default launcher and one with Nova]

@shailendra1993 How did you get the unlock code? Please share the guide.

You can use newpipe app for YouTube. It is available in fdroid store.

Any Reason to NOT Upgrade to EMUI 5.0?

Just got my Honor 6x last week. I haven't unlocked the bootloader or rooted the phone yet, and honestly, I'm not sure I'm going to bother doing so this time around. I also haven't installed the update to EMUI 5.0 yet. If in the future I do decide to unlock the bootloader, or root the phone, is there any reason I shouldn't install the EMUI 5.0 update now, or is it safe to do so?

It is absolutely safe and works fine unless there is any bug for your specific model.
There is neither one reason to remain on EMUI 4. Everything is better on Nougat, you'll see

When will beta 9.0 come out ?

Hey There...
Does anyone knows when will beta version of EMUI 9.0 be available globally. They said it would be in July if anyone knows exact date ?
Any help would be appreciated
I bet they have silently cancelled it, there was a beta project in my country, I was approved, but never received the ota, it is now gone from the beta app.
Pretty disappointed tbh, Huawei and Honor just lost yet another customer

But some recent news on internet are even confirming EMUI 9.1 for our device. How could they cancel 9.0 and confirm 9.1. Maybe they are upgrading the device directly to 9.1 that's why they removed the 9.0 Update from FUT

I did not say they would cancel the update altogether, just the beta project, which they obviously did.

There seem to be some updates for your model on Firmware Finder, if you're willing to tinker with it you can give HuRUpdater a try. Personally, I just wanted emui 9 to move to newer openkirin releases.

Yes there are but I don't have a spare phone these days to use as a daily driver if anything messes up so I am a little bit afraid to do a force update.

Which security patch did you have on EMUI 9.1? I'm looking to move to OmniRom and apparently the security patches from May onwards caused bootloops with OpenKirin images.

It came with the June security patch, I was not able to use OmniRom (bootloops as you said, adb starts tho not fully) but I actually tried RR for emui 9 and it worked

np, I got pretty worried when I got the bootloop, thinking that the update to emui 9.1 was somehow "incomplete".
Btw under RR the device is seen as "Kirin Treble" and not Honor 7X, but from what I can tell everything works fine. Do you also have the European model?

How likely will it have official custom/AOSP ROMs?

This phone is eating Redmi/xiaomi cc for lunch. It looks like a real great value, beating xiaomi/redmi at its game.
For me, if only it has clean Android...
While xiaomi's popular models have been pretty good at releasing kernels and getting ASOP roms, how likely will realme phones get clean custom roms? Thanks.
Well certainly not Out Of The box, as we are still not sure of UBL and kernel sources, but seeing the track record of REALME, they will surely be out in a Month.
And as seen on R3p, atleast we will get an unofficial LOS. Also I know one developer who will be getting Realme X , sometime soon , so ???

Moto Z2 Play Update Pie

Hello, I'm new here. I wondered if anyone of you had any news about the update to Pie of Moto Z2 play. I have a Wind carrier version (Italy). Should I wait more? if not, where can I find a right and safe stock Pie update to be installed manually? and how should I do that? thank u
not available yet in italy. but even if it was, i would wait to see how it performs and wait some other´s users report before updating. there´s a pie thread in the news section, post in that thread. i would delete this thread

Check out the comment section...people are using it on their devices
My main question is, is it legit.?..as he claims it to be the Indian version...maybe this is a custom rom or something

I mean I wouldn't doubt it's a custom rom he is using a screen recorder that requires root and a bootloader unlock so granted I could be wrong but literally I tried the same thing on a Na xt1710-2 no dice in the same method that was shown

Do you think this will be changed in the future? Where should I expect info about future improvements? Here on this forum and on Huawei's FB page I imagine.
