Has anyone who debranded in the uk got OTA update passed B166?
yes, i got 182. I am now on 361 manually updated
Hi. Did anyone get C636B394 update via OTA? Firmware finder shows that IMEI no. Is approved for B394 but I haven't got any update yet.
Im still stuck with Nov 2017 security patch.
Just install via Firmware Finder. It wouldn't make a difference installing via that app or the official updater app.

The download file becomes huge (the FullOTA-MF) because all EVA-L09,EVA-L19,EVA-L29 variants of the update starts downloading. So I thought maybe I'd wait for the official update. So far I got updates every month just that this month there has been no updates so was curious.
I've got an P9 Plus (VIE-L09C432) and the latest update I get is B370 from March 2017. I can see from other users on XDA and Firmware Finder (FF) that there are newer updates out there. But neither "system update" on the phone, nor HiSuite finds anything newer than B370.
Why is different updates available only in some regions. Who decides this? Huawei or my phone company?
I tried updating via FF, but even though it makes the system updater find a newer firmware it failes when I try to download it. My next phone will by a pure Google phone.

The build have to be approved by Huawei in FF.
For your phone, the latest approved build are B381.
Yes, the question then is why do I never get any updates newer than B370? Is somehow Huawei or Telia (my phone company) holding the updates back?

Strange, i'm a swede with Telia...got B381 OTA weeks ago.
(it has nothing to do with Telia)
Sent a mesage to Huawei support and they asked for my IMEI number and would look into why my phone never got the updates after B370. Have not heard back from them yet, but I'm optimistic. At one time I have unlocked my boot loader and rooted the phone, but I relocked it and restored the phone via B360 which was updated to B370 via my one and only OTA received. I found I had little or no use for root on the phone.
B384 is now approved in FF. (Smooth update)

Today I got B384 as official OTA ...
I gave up waiting for the updates via OTA and just used FF, now on B384 myself.

Huawei don't give much love to us up here in Scandinavia. Well known!! and specially L09-C432.
The L29C363 seems to get more attention.
Hello!
Got my phone today and am trying to update the firmware. I see that there are 2 newer releases of firmware verse what is currently on the phone, but trying OTA does not find any updates. Firmware finder tells me "firmware not approved for installation" for everything.
This is a Latin America region phone that I am using on Tmobile in the US.
I tried resetting the phone to factory and updating without putting a SIM in, but it made no difference.
Has anyone with this build received and update via OTA?
Any help would be appreciated.

I ended up paying for funkyhuawei. It did work very easily.
Just tried to manually download update and magically came through. Anyone else in UK on unlocked phone had this or is this old news? This is not the beta but over normal network update.
