I bought my phone on dec 4th and until that time I didn't receive any updates for my phone.
I have the European PLK-L01432B121 Firmware but the only option for me is to update my phone manually which is kinda annoying.
Does anyone else experience this problem?
I didn't find anything related to my problem on xda or somewhere else...

Yes. Your not the only one. I'm in the UK and still on B121 and not received any ota updates. I'm hoping the MM ota will be rolling straight out to us this month.

Yes - unless we've done manual updates or beta tests, most of the us are probably still on B121.
Not quite sure why you think this a problem though.

A lot of people already got their Updates to B140 and B170 so I was wondering why I don't receive them via OTA...
It's a problem because I think it is very annoying to do a manual update every time a new update rolls out. When Honor implement a OTA feature, than it should work.

1. Backup with HiSuit all your stuff.
2. Factory reset phone.
3. Don´t setup any apps, just anything the setup wizard asks, including wifi and google account.
4. After completing setup, check for update.
5. After each update, repeat again from line 2.
6. At B730, restore HiSuit backup except for apps already included in the ROM.
I have the RS988 G5, unlocked, purchased from B&H. I was wondering if there is a link to information on what is in the RS98811c update? I had no luck finding anything about this update.

Have you heard that there is a RS98811c update? RS98811b brought the Android security patch level up to June 1 2016, but I've read somewhere that there is an August version of the security patch as well. Perhaps if there is a version 11c update it will include that latest security patch.
RS98811c update is installed

I just checked for it and it was waiting for me to download.
Here's some information about it:
For those who care about such things, the RS98811c update DOES increment the rollback counter. Security patch is taken to 2016-07-01.
My phone didn't find the update. Is it for ATT only?(I have Tmobile)

The RS988 is the unlocked US variant, and I am using it on AT&T's network, so I can't say for sure. I found it by checking for updates under the "About Phone", then "Update Center", then "Software Update" menus, and there it was. I tried using LG Bridge, but software update wouldn't work for me.
I just had this update pushed to my phone yesterday afternoon and just installed the update, I'll report back my findings later this week.
Trying my best to ignore it for now and wait for more people to confirm if you can rollback after this update. Don't want to ruin any chance I have at getting root in the future.
I see this has been available for a few days now, anyone tried it out or seen a change log ?

Huawei Firmware Finder doesn't have this version, maybe not released by Huawei, yet?
Nothing here in denmark, latest is b164
This update is not available on Huawei's public servers, so this is not likely to be found on Firmware Finder, until when/if it is publicly released.
The published changelog is as follows, but I don't think it's correct changelog -- Huawei often doesn't offer an accurate changelog until well after, when the update is released to public.

Actually B171 is coming out privately so probably B170 will not be released publicly.
I have no idea about time frames.

FunkyHuawei is a paid service, so the xda team won't allow any support here.
But I think, that there's something that I can say about FunkyHuawei:
To update your phone with their services you have to buy points. When there wasn't any change, you have to buy at least 5 points for USD $30 and the update takes 1 point.
But be careful with this firmware, I once installed B124 via FunkyHuawei a few months ago and had huge problems with Camera and UMTS (don't have 4G with my sub-provider).
My phone was barely not usable just because of a firmware provided by FunkyHuawei.
So, don't update if you have no problems with your installed firmware, just for having a newer one. There isn't even a changelog, so FunkyHuawei has an firmware, which isn't released by Huawei yet and this can have a good reason.

I tried to upgrade to B166 from Firmware Finder but at the end when the file was downloaded, i got an error pop up.
Saying that the file failed the authentication, hence the upgrade didn't start.
I guess then B166 hasn't been released officially yet...

Hi,
I have 3 Honor 5x phones in my house. One of them has got the B370 and B381 updates OTA, the other two phones don't get any update OTA after B360. I know the new updates have newer security patches so I really wanted to have them on the other two phones as well. I don't know whats going on and I can't really understand why those two phones won't see the updates. I can spot one difference between the phones, the phone that got the update has custom version CUSTC675D003, the other two phones have custom version CUSTC675D002. Infact one of the phones with custom ver 002 has been just purchased but shows no update after B360.
I spoke to the customer care guys via online chat and they said that the new phone will see the update after 15 - 20 days of updating to B360 which I highly doubt. Regarding the old phone that does not get the update, they said they will forward the complaint to tech support and they will fix the issue. It's been 4-5 days and the old phone still has no notifications for the new update.
Request someone to please throw some light on the issue....

Have already tried that, problem is that I see the B370 update listed in the app but when I click on it, an error pops up saying "the file seems to have been removed from the server" so can't download the update from firmware finder as well.
I also have the same problem. (I have B360 version & My custom version is CUSTC675D002..) When tried via Firmware finder, i got same "the file seems to have been removed from the server". Any suggestions.?

Download from where? The B370 update is not available for download on Honor's website because its not an OS update. Firmware finder says the update file has been removed from the server
Let me check if there is any link. These updates rollout in rolling manner and varies for every user, some get on 1st day and few after 2 months

Would be really great. I think I found the link to download B370 update and it seems apt for my phone. It has a number in the name of the extracted folder (67983). It matches to the number found next to the B370 shown by firmware finder for my phone. But, I am not installing it yet because I would need B381 as well because I think there were some issues in B370 which were addressed in B381 and I am damn sure the phone will not show notifications for B381 by itself and it will have to be manually done again.
I had an honor 4c which didn't show any update in 2 years and Huawei's customer care had no answer for it. I had to manually hunt for each update to bring it to lollipop and then to marshmallow from kitkat. So, I think I would definitely need B381 as well.
I am also a bit hesitant to update the phones manually because from the looks of it, it seems custom version D001 and D003 phones have got the updates OTA. The problem is with D002 only and I fear these manual updates might break something that's why Huawei is not seeding them to D002. The old 5x was updated to B360 around 2-3 months back and still haven't shown notification for B370.
It would be great if you could find a link to B381 instead of B370 and then I can try manually. Huawei's updates are like a difficult puzzle. I think I'll stay away from Huawei and Honor in the future.

Here is what someone at US Cellular told me over chat today... Who knows if they know anything or not.
"At this time Android has not released the Oreo software for the LG G6. Once it becomes available it will be on our website"
Still waiting for it. ?
I tweeted at them a few weeks ago and got an answer that they didn't have any information about an update.
https://twitter.com/johnWayne007/status/994088970312192000
On a separate side note, are you on 16b or 16c?
You could wait for the us997 version for Oreo when they release it and flash it I have flashed the nougat versions and it works great!
I have been on 16c for some while now. Battery life sucks with this phone. Some days while at work and connections are weak/switching all the time I get maybe 1.5 hours SOT. Other wise I manage 3 hours average.

?? Just got done chatting with their support. They told me the same thing ?.
US Cellular is terrible when it comes to updating or upgrading Android software. I once waited a whole year, year and a half to get an update to the next Android version on a device ?. They really need to pick up the ball when handling software updates ?.
I just got Oreo OTA pushed to my US997U today. Running smoothly so far.
Still haven't gotten the update on my US Cellular G6. Also there still isn't a kdz either.
?? Here is what LG sent me when I got in contact with them through email after previously chatting with multiple US Cellular support staff about the Android Oreo update for the LG G6.
