[news] Latest Official Update (not so new after all?) - Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi all,
Just to inform on the latest update that seems to contain more stuff compared to the normal Android bug fix patches.
Check out the attached change log.

You got january build in mid march?

? that's January patch?!
And yes, I just got it before I posted.
I've been getting patches recently but most of them are Android patches. So thought this should be the latest. Man, I'm outdated (by two months) ?

Seems that those features are coming with march update on EU no brand (L09C432).

January Security Update?

Some reviewers had posted that the January security update was pushed prior to release, but I've had my 5X running since Tuesday and its still on the December patch.
I made sure to manually check for updates just in case and the phone didn't see anything. I'm connected to both data and wi-fi so I'm not sure what is up.
Has anyone received it other than pre-release folks?

Honor has a BetaClub program that lets users test a new software build before it gets released to everyone. The update with the January Android security patches should be out soon.

See my thread here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/how-to/guide-kiw-l24-to-stock-t3318268
Bit of a newbie here, came across this forum when looking at new phones and was quite excited by the idea of being able to play with all that was available in the phone.
So I went and bought a 5x have got my unlock code but have not unlocked it just yet, I am UK based and so have the L21 and just wanted to check that the general consensus is to leave the thing untouched (except for a new launcher and a few apps installed) until I have received or somehow updated to the B140 update.
I couldn't work out in the other thread about returning to stock if the B140 for the Kiwi 21 had actually been released yet, couldn't find any downloads on the Huawei site for the UK.

I'm not sure how I could be more clear that the B140 update is for the L24 only
I just uploaded the latest OTA B140 for the KIW-L24 here >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24421527759882720
KIW-L21 Users See post 8 for the files you need (But note the OTA is only for the L24)

That's what I thought thanks for confirming. I will wait till my phone updates before I try debloating scripts etc...

are you on the Beta test list or is that the official OTA ?
you need stock system and stock recovery to take the update
check the file depot in my signature for the files

Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow (with 1st of April security path) + EMUI 4.0 are under beta test and are expected to be released in June. The beta update is also available for public release on demand, and you can also subscribe to beta update by filling up necessary information at https://club.hihonor.com/in/update....i-4-0-marshmallow-limited-public-release.2417.
Take a note that this update isn't stable yet and we have reported many issues to Honor for that, and should get fixes sooner.
You can update to CM13 UNOFFICIAL, but before you do, just have a look at the issues mentioned for CM13. If you can live with them, I suggest you go for CM13. I am not sure whether CM13 for Honor 5x will ever be OFFICIAL (I don't know what makes it unofficial and official). Personally, I won't move to CM unless it gets fingerprint support (which is not possible until Honor releases Android 6.0.1 sources for Honor 5x).

@pank.dhnd the sources is much enough with the kernel releases which is more enough to patch the system files and make fingerprint sensor work with dev sources aka Beta.
Though i've applied for beta tester and recieved my update where as i have also patched already with the security update B150. I doubt that will i face bootloop no longer i don't go downgrading the system or re-flasing stock with B130 and update it.
@gopinaidu77 Can i just uprade this OTA ? with B150 security patched with stock with no root ??
@clsA I just applied for Beta testing and i've got the OTA aswell. i have doubt that by this month end the stock- official update will roll-on will i be able to capture that too ? Or is it better to stay in stock and avail the offcial rather opting Beta (B130).
@kartrikpal update, then do full twrp backup then do what ever you want

Samsung J200GU update

Hi Everyone,
Newbie here! I just want to know if anyone knows if there will be a release of marshmallow update for j200gu. Last January, this device was included as one of those that would be updated to marshmallow. However, it's almost year end but still no Marshmallow update. All I get is security updates. Anyway, does anyone here knows if google made this for J2?
Thanks
Still no news from the provider about this. There were some updates but not a full version upgrade

Android security patches?

Hi,
Are we ever going to get new Android security patches? My phone (L21) is still on 1st September patch level... I had understood Huawei had committed to supporting the phone for two years but it seems that they have abandoned it....
I see other people saying that their patch level is 1st December but my phone doesn't find any new update when I check... I have also used the Firmware Finder app and indeed the latest patch levels seem to be available only for other Customisations (D001, D002) but there is nothing for mine (D003).... Does anybody know why?
By the way, I have another Sumsung phone which is older than the 5x and it is currently on 1st Feb 2017 patch level.

Bold-N1 new update, which includes bugs fixes and Security Patch dated May 5, 2020!

I thought that you all would like to know that the Bold-N1 has received yesterday (26, May 2020) a new firmware update, which includes some bugs fixes and Android Security Patch*dated May 5 2020.
Anyone that has already received this new updated, has noticed something new or any enhancements on their Bold-N1 cellphone after installation of this update?
Although I really thought that this was finally the long awaited*Android-10*update, unfortunately NOT, as its only includes a new security update of the same Android-9 system, that already has the Bold-N1.
I still hope that Bold-Products will update the Bold-N1 to the promised Android-10..!!
