Hello when do you get Honor 9 Android 8?
Will there ever be such an update date has there been declared for Europe I am asking.
It is in beta now, so I am assuming after it finishes that.

In Firmware Finder, there is no beta on Android 8 to get her to see it or later release it?

Guys I request everyone not to purchase these honor branded devices, even though they are marketed as flagship killers they won't receive proper updates once the device gets past the 6-9 month period, you can't even expect security updates one has to literally beg them, its better to purchase one plus, Samsung and Sony flagships because they are at least guaranteed to receive security update when ever there is a bug and proper OS upgrades, they ditched their flagship honor 7 from receiving nougat update stating Kirin 935 soc isn't compatible with newer update, similar lines this year they ditched honor 8 which boasts another flagship SOC Kirin 950 , stating the same reason its not compatible with newer Oreo update, so it clearly means that kirin 9xx is a flagship grade chip set series from Huawei which is not supportive for future upgrades? So is it good to buy them even after knowing their compatibility issues with future upgrades? I had invested 29k INR in Nov 2016 during honor 8 launch time, India and purchased this device over one plus 3T trusting their 2 year software update policy and security updates for every 3 months, clearly they cheated me and I regret buying honor 8 using my hard earned money instead of one plus device, so i request everyone to boycott honor devices, but the strange thing is honor mid ranges like 655 equipped devices are confirmed for Oreo, its a clear case of cheating to drive growth of newer flagships by ditching older flagships, Huawei as a brand itself has lot of conspiracies surrounding it, its better if we developer community boycott such brands, Good that US regulatory authorities are imposing ban on huawei, I can see the future of this company going down the drain in the similar way they expanded
I request xda please don't support this brand for monetary gains and spoil your reputation!
You honor 9 won't receive android P , going by the track record of hONOR

huawei have officially stated that the honor 8 WILL be receiving oreo,
as for the honor 9, it has full support for project treble once it gets oreo (suppose the honor 8 will have that too)
considering oreo beta 2 is taking place at he moment within Europe, i can't expect any more than 1 month until it at least becomes available in the firmwarefinder app
Wow, just wow. Are you on a spam tour? Why do you post this in every honor forum? To bad you're sour about not getting an update. Stop spamming.
How to register to get oreo beta?
For bulgaria no project to beta?

Have you read this ? Honor fails to keep its promise, says Honor 8 will not receive Android 8.0 Oreo from phonearena.

Ok, i believe i was mistaken on that one, i was pretty sure i'd read that oreo beta was taking place on both the honor 9 and 8, BUT iv'e just checked and it turns out that the honor 8 isn't officially getting oreo.
Either way, as iv'e already stated, once official oreo for the honor 9 is out, and devs get hold of the source, since its a fully supported treble build, i can only assume the custom ROMs should start to appear.
The SOC in the honor 8 is not too different from the kirin 960 (going by the actual ARM cores used in it 4xA53 in both, though the 950 has 4xA72 rather than A73 in the 960), so i can't see there being too much difficulty in porting the source code for the 960 to the 950 (i'm not proficient in this topic, so please correct me if i'm wrong, I stick to application programming, not OS core stuff)
Either way, I HOPE with project treble porting to different CPUs should be easier than it is now (requiring source code from manufacturer etc...) and hopefully we see some more custom ROMs.
Just waiting for lineage 15...

Probably the same thing I saw, plus openkirin released an aosp Oreo build for the honor 8
https://theleaker.com/huawei-honor-android-p-9-0-update/
It's a bit early to be sure. No one really knows what the final version of android P will bring to the table. Maybe there will be features not compatible with the honor 9 hardware. All in all, until we know what android P will be, there's no way to know if the honor 9 will receive. There will be a million articles speculating on what phone will get what and when, but until there is an official announcement, no one knows.
honestly its well to early to say it would get P or not id be surprised if it did
Of course H9 will get Android P, come on guys, it's very clear with Huawei: Midrange devices get 1 major update, flagships get 2 major updates. Now with project Treble they might raise the update count by 1.
With the launch of new flagship from honor now its sure that no new features including EIS update will be coming to view 10 instead they will focus on their new flagship. Development for this device i.e. Honor view 10 is already very slow and now they have a new device to focus on. Development for honor view 10 will stop here and still we do not have a fully working ROM for this device. Honor 10 will launch on May 15 in international market and again honor will promise something which they will not do and launch a new device in October-November.
And this is how a smartphone with great hardware fails because of poor software development from the brand.

It got its own forum already .

Sorry, but looking at the pricing I can't see the Honor 10 as a successor for the View 10 or as a flagship. Specs are not really better compared to the View 10 either. The view 10 has got a larger battery and the CPU is the same, the RAM and storage are at least the same or larger compared to the Honor 10, depending on the version. All the Honor 10 brings is a display notch. Meh.
cool
Let's wait for its launch event in London
Your post has no sense, seriously.
Don't worry mate, the honor 10 will also be slow
What u guys think is this phone worth of this price. 33000 rs
Or should we wait for one +6
The OP6 is rumored to start at 37k and I think the marginal improvements and features like wireless charging would be worth the extra 4k. Also, if you're into Honor phones, the view 10 is cheaper in India having the same processor and ram, but with expandable storage and a bigger screen. The Honor 10 would be a better buy abroad as it undercuts the view 10 by €50
Honor is not good in providing updates, development support. HONOR view 10 in India is still with 8.0 and Feb patches. No one knows if they release 8.1 or not. No proper response to users. No proper roadmap of updates. And no volte and AI support in custom roms.
I recommend you to go for Oneplus even if it costs little more.

Ya already made my mind. Bought the amazon voucher also. Definitely going for one plus 6
Seems over priced considering you can get a view 10 for extra £20 and OnePlus 6 for extra £69 both with more ram and OnePlus 6 better development and regular updates , I think the price has killed it before it's even begun and the fact honor slow updating and far to many region firmware floating around gets confusing , better of with the global OnePlus 6 one firmware for all is the way forward ,honor will never learn ?[emoji39]

Has anyone seen any news on the likelihood of the 8X getting EMUI 9 and Android P? Seems there isn't even a beta out yet.
It will get for sure as its only just started to roll for mate series then P series it will filter down eventually to others, there is currently beta started for honor 10 view honor 10 and honor play but limited to India to start, I asked honor support and no official date for 8x yet and that goes for a beta if it even gets one may just be final build, had my 8x just over a week and no system updates as yet out of the box but is on sep 1st security so not to shabby
