So Huawei have (finally) released a date for the official EMUI 9 update for the mate 10/10 Pro and P20/P20 Pro. They state the update will begin on the 18th of December in Singapore. Sadly, they did not mention a date for Europe, or any other regions :/

Hopefully Singapore is a C636 model.
Hopefully the statement is for a Worldwide release and so for C636, C432...
I kinda doubt that it's for worldwide release, Huawei has a habit of "saying" one thing and doing another, so don't hold your breath waiting for the update. As usual of course the US version of the mate 10 pro (BLA-A09) probably won't see it at all.

Yep. All major sites reported Global rollout started early last month. Where is the update.
A big difference between China and Global rollout.
Huawei has been abysmal with updates. People can cheer how good the hardware is, with the prices they are asking for their newer phones without good software support not gonna even consider it.
Exactly

You're right with that one, I took a chance on buying the mate 10 pro (US model) figuring that they would honor what they had previously stated about issuing timely updates for their devices, man was that a mistake. No matter how good the hardware is if a company doesn't support their products it's a deal breaker for sure, I won't be buying any more of their products.
Monthly security updates, added night shot and face unlock, and most likely Pie in 2018, don't know what you people are complaining about.
US model owners is just bad luck that 2018 was the year geopolitics made Huawei untenable, the rest of us are getting great, regular updates.

Yeah, you're probably right on that one. Would be a big mistake on their part though as the US is a large market segment to just abandon. Not too many people will buy the international models that don't have a warranty, these things are too expensive for that.

Wouldn't be a mistake to them. The US government is actively trying to push Huawei out. There's no point gambling on the US market if the government can kick them with a flick of their wrist. Also, Huawei is not popular in the states. They are probably burning money trying to gain market share. If they don't see a good future, rather exit and cut their losses now than lose more in the future for no gain.
I will change to the Chinese region then, because now I'm in the European​

Hi guys. Havent seen this yet so I want to start it. I'm on the beta for pie. It's been really stable. Has anyone else been part of the testing and if so have you gotten the official update. Who will be pushing it to us as I dont use a normal carrier and my carrier does not sell note 9. I could use a different firmware but I'm enjoying not seeing all the carrier stuff

If you mean the Note 9 purchased from Samsung itself, no no updates have been pushed yet.
FYI, Samsung unlocked devices are usually the last ones to get updates. They claim they need to test it with every carrier.
I have gotten from Samsung a S8+, Note 8, S9+ and a Note 9... All experienced the same update delay.
There's a 428 page thread dedicated to the Pie beta and leaked builds.
When the official Pie for the unlocked model is released, you'll get it via OTA since you're on the official beta.
Has anyone found out or received any information on updates regarding the UK's 5G OnePlus 7 Pro? Currently on Oxygen OS 9.5.3.GM27BA.
What did you need to know? I've had mine since launch day.

Same, but there haven't been any major updates. The 4G model is two updates ahead already. Seems like they are just selling the 5G model for money without offering any support for it. Just wanting to know if there is gonna be any update anytime soon, and which update are they gonna give us, because being a few updates behind is rediculous.

Just seems a bit unfair with the 4G model is getting updates to the camera and other fixed, and then people with the 5G model which is the more expensive device is just getting left out. If they want to make 5G the future of smartphones they should offer more support on the device.
OxygenOS 9.5.4.GM27BA should be the next update according to this
https://github.com/OnePlusOSS/andro...mmit/510ad8fb042c4a87e10f18e5c158361c36238c11
Would converting the 5g phone to international Allow updates since 9.5.7 is now out....
Bit annoyed that the updates are slow too considering the last 2 have related to improving the camera
If so is the only way to do it to root it?
Everyone needs to keep expectations in line with the situation we have here.
There is only 1 place in the entire world that has the 5G Pro device in use.
So updates will be tested on Non 5G and then ported over to 5G.
The camera i version 9.5.1 5G is the same as 9.5.4 non 5G.
So i expect the same here, 9.5.7 upates to be included in 9.5.4 5G.
However seeing as the source code was uploaded 3 days ago and still no OTA it must mean EE are testing all updates and delaying it.
So I dont think its OnePlus problem.
Once the device is no longer exclusive then we may be able to use EU 5G updates on our phones.
I believe the way to works is OP will give an update to ee they will then test it, report any bugs back to OP to fix and then approve the update and then it will go out. EE have always been slow with updates.. Well for Samsung they have been. My pixel 3xl updated straight from Google.
Why do EE need to be testing this? I would understand it if the phone had custom firmware on it by EE but they don't. The phone is no different from the standard device all be it with the 5g modem.
Very frustrating, really want the camera improvements.
Is it possible to put this version into the global version of updates like the t mobile version has been done?

I don't think this will work, there are some differences in the firmware. You may loose some functionality.

Still waiting......
Seen somewhere that you can flash it as a 4g device might look into that as 5g isn't available where I am ATM so not loosing anything then could flash the 5g rom once 5g more available....
Ee fastest network in the UK till it comes to updates
Op ain't much better ATM about 5g device had no answers about updates or when ee exclusive deal expires
Let hope for some updates soon it's quite bad we haven't had the camera updates
its been 2 weeks since last update and nothing yet i wish i waited and got non 5g now

I think you will lose any reception. Because of the different Bands.
But it's discussed several times in many threads...
Forget Pie updates. They were waiting to bring you 10:

Apparently, they are selling the 128 GB version on INDIA too. And it isn't the Tencent VErsion. It is the global version one, with the aero case, but with the 18W charger and no cooler.
Here's the proof.

If it actually comes with WW firmware natively, I'm planning on buying that one.

The Indian model is listed as having VoLTE and the only retailer I can find that has it listed is Flipkart. They list the model number as
ZS660KL-1A017IN
I'm guessing India is getting their own special version. IIRC Indian law requires a certain percentage of the phone to be manufactured in India.

I checked Kimovil yesterday regarding tencent version's supported bands for India, and it has all the necessary ones. Which leads me to believe that the phone will be very similar to the tencent version, with some better stuff like aero case and global firmware, but not that far off. For those without a ROG 2 yet it seems worth it to get it form there, but without expecting any additional bands IMO.

I didn't say it is.
I said that the tencent version already has all LTE Bands for India, so the "India version", however different it may be with the aero case, global firmware, etc., most likely won't have a change of LTE Bands. At least that's what I think.

Thanks for the link, I ordered one directly from Asus. Wasn't crazy about $70 in tax but at least I know I will have a valid warranty and I can return it if I need to without a hassle.
Is there a way yet that works to take my T-Mobile variant (2217) and convert it to the Global version? I know this has been a touchy subject. I'm still on Android 12 with December security patch I just got a few days ago. Thanks
