Huawei p9 nougat update

[Anonymous]

Has anyone notice that their p9 isn't showing up on their o2 app just number and has anyone received an update to nougat yet I contacted Huawei and they said my firmware was a custom one from o2 and couldn't tell me a date contacted guro online and he said it's up to Huawei to release the updates confused

Well done @SmileyBoy. Perseverance pays off (sometimes) ...:smileywink:

After months of waiting (although I did briefly get an update, that failed to work, so factory reset and it's never been offered since) I searched and found this thread. Firmware finder finds B393, with three downloads, update.zip, update_data_full_public.zip and EVA-L09_ee_gb/update_full_EVA-L09_ee_gb.zip. I assume all I need are the first two, but would be grateful for confirmation before I commit.

Sadly we aren't allowed to comment on questions such as that, but I suggest you check on XDA forum

Thanks. Not a problem (I've been a member over at XDA for as long as I've had a mobile). I'll post there.

Though I'm curious as to why it's not allowed. If neither Huawei nor O2 are getting the job done, and since we literally own the phones, what's the objection?

[MI5]

They are worried that someone might brick their device and blame O2 for it.

Oh? Like I'd blame O2 for my doing something that they neither offered nor suggested, but I went ahead and did anyway. Such is life. I suppose litigation culture is alive and well.

Thanks for the replies, though. Hopefully, someone over at XDA will answer. (Odd, because when I first got it and wanted to install CM, it was impossible and no-one could help - I thought Samsung were a nuisance for that, but at least with Samsung there was always a workaround).

Just a quick note to say my 'Serbian' UK o2 P9 got an automatic update from b182 to b210 today, still on Android 6.0

Small baby steps....
