C440 EE anyone had any updates

Hi, I brought this phone last year on contract with EE and it came on B138 and since purchase have not received any updates. Is this an issue with my phone or EE as I contacted them and they told me to format my phone which I don't fancy doing. Has anyone received a newer update than B138 on EE locked. Cheers ahead for any help

No, that is the latest from them.

Where is n950f btu uk update??

As per title, where is the new Note 8 Unlocked UK update? I'm still on August security patch when UK carrier specific networks started to get December update on the 10th December. It's now the end of 17th December... Have we been forgotten about do you think? lol... My S8+ was great running Oreo Beta 2 so this Note 8 seems a bit backward...
Reason I ask is because I am hoping this update fixes an issue I am having with notifications not coming through most of the time, I've checked and altered any battery optimisation and special access optimizations for certain apps but still no success so hoping the update triggers something to get this working like it should.

I have an unlocked still on august patch as well, my other one I got through Vodafone Ireland already got November patch and updates, wonder if they are leaving us waiting for Oreo on the international unlocked versions

Is pending due to BREXIT...
But: you can flash "manually" with Odin:

This Is most definitely the case

This is annoying me big time, pretty piss poor by Samsung

I was just seeing if it was me that hadn't got the update. I'm still on August.
Meanwhile, the Note 5 is getting the December update...

Don't blame Samsung for that, but the UK operators -> THEY have to approve the FW first before it's rolling out to the devices!
The december update is available but still "on hold" for UK-devices (BTU & XEU)
BTU/XEU : 1AQI1 (August)
O2U : 1AQK9 (November)
EVR : 1AQK9 (November)
VOD : 1AQK9 (November)
H3G : 1AQK9 (November)
But: instead of complaining here, why not flash the latest FW yourself (2BQKG) with Odin?

BTU/XEU are the codes for the direct from Samsung models. They are operator free. So there is no approval from the operators needed. I personally think someone at Samsung just forgets to hit a publish button as they don't get an approval they don't need.
By any standard August is the only BTU available, and that's poor for a flagship with a company that promised monthly security updates.

Yeah still no update on the 23rd DEC, I did see EE UK only just got it on the 19th and that probably makes up the last in the UK to get it now... Flashing via Odin means fresh install dosnt it? I guess even if an OTA update dosnt resolve my notification issues, a fresh install probably would be the best bet anyway.
Wouldn't flashing my non-carrier device with a carrier specific 2BQKG firmware potentially riddle my device with carrier bloat? Better off waiting if thats the case! Anything new in 2BQKG over 1AQK9?

Just updated to 2BQKG via Odin without losing anything, wish I did this sooner!

I'm in UK on ee and the update came out today ota 46.87mb

Hi
I ve bought a Note 8 device unlocked as the seller said and when i got home i noticed that is blocked. When i check what provider is on i found BTU. So if can someone please help me what network provider i should contact?
Thanks a lot for your help and support

BTU is a generic code so it's not carrier assigned.
You need to contact the seller and get your money back as it will be impossible to find out why it was blocked in the first place.
P.S. If you're ever buying a second hand phone ask the seller for the IMEI before you part with any cash and check it online to see if it's blocked first. If the seller won't give you the IMEI then just walk away.

BTU
Hi
The seller blocked me and can t get in touch with him snymore. I think he has an insurance and report his phone lost. How can i find out which provider is on?

Or better still write down the IMEI number put your sim card in the phone and call your provider to have the device added to your account .
How many providers does your region have? Call all of them.

I called them up and none told me that they blocked the device. They said only the owner can unblock the phone. But as i said he blocked me on phone, whats app and Facebook. Is there any chance to find out who is the provider blocked the phone?
Thanks a lot for your help and support.

However the chances are you are using an unlocked UK/Ireland model which may have been bought from a retailer or Samsung direct and then insured via a third party insurer. The third party insurer would then request an IMEI block if the device was reported lost or stolen.
Sadly there is very little you can do as the device will likely be blocked from all networks in your country of residence, however there is a chance it could work outside of your country as other countries / carriers will have not blocked the IMEI.
Meaning you may be able to sell it on with the proviso / understanding the device is blocked in the UK or whatever country your currently residing.
How did you buy the device ? If you paid via PayPal or with a CC - you may be able to get a chargeback with your CC company if you report it as a fraudulent transaction (sold a dud device).

I bought it on Shpock from a private seller. Now i found that the T mobile blocked the IMEI because it was a illegally purchase and the seller knew it this. I paid by cash unfortunately. The device was blocked by t mobile since December 2017. And i bought it few days ago.

you obviously bought a stolen phone, lesson learnt for you, buy cheap... buy twice....HA... HAAA..
that said, you could probably recover a few quid from selling it on a Russian buy/sell website

So it was UK purchased. Looks like the networks share IMEI information. just sell it to the USA or mainland Europe, noting it's black listed in the UK. You should he able to get at least 60% of your money back. That is if it's really black listed and nothing else wrong with it .

Clt-l09(c706)

Could someone please tell me which region this phone version CLT-L09(C706) is localised? I bought my p20 pro from one of the local store here in New Zealand on the weekend and it came with emui build 8.1.0.101 March security patch.

I have same device in NZ. Still on firmware 101 version. Have you received any OTA updates yet?

I bought mine from NZ too. Still on 101 but Firmware Finder shows that 120 is going to come soon(er than later hopefully).

No joy guys, looks like we'll be stuck on this firmware for long time The latest firmware on FF is not approved for our device C706. I also contacted FunkyHuawei and they were non-committal on supporting C706. I'm contemplating to debrand to C636 or European rom which seems to get a faster update.

If you do, do you mind telling us how it goes? I was thinking about it too but I'm not sure if things might break.

I've also got a C706 - just received the 120 update ota in New Zealand. Much quicker than I feared it might be ?

Anyone got any further updates on c706?
In NZ here with c706. Still on 130 version while Soo many further updates. Huawei has always been slow in NZ for updates but from what I can under c706 is for NZ and Australian carriers and it's not tied to specific carrier this time

Same boat as you mate, still stuck on 130 and even on a quick check using FF it is still showing 130 as latest update on C706. Other than what seems to be a poor battery life on 130 I don't have any issue with the phone.

Any UK 1055 users got an ota?

Has anybody in the uk received the ota to august yet?
Or are the carriers still purposefully not allowing it. That's the official HMD reason they gave me recently . Lol

I'm on o2 no update yet

Whoever you talk to they will explain how updates work and you just need to be patient. 2 months I was waiting on my 6.1 with no update. Moved up to the 7plus as apparently there were no update issues. There is with the august one. They wont even look into it just give you the same spiel how it's the carriers etc etv etc. Android one?????? Still a good phone though

Strange, I am on EE and still no update on my 1055 but got the August update on my Nokia 8 1012, same carrier, 2 weeks ago. Go figure.

No update here on Tesco/02 either

On GiffGaff and no August update as yet

TA-1046 (this is the European dual SIM model) On 3 Ireland - no update.
Thinking to sideload.
Can you see any improvement after manually updated?

1055 in Ireland on 3 (Hutchinson) No update yet.

No update yet for 1055 on BT Mobile or EE in UK.

Sideloaded. Its definitely smoother and snappier.
No idea why HMD are ignoring this issue. These phones could steal market off samsung etc but the customer support is lacking here. Sad

No update with SIM card on the tray. After removing the SIM card and checking for update, the update appeared.
TA-1046, plusnet (EE)

Canadian owners and updates?

Does anyone have any information regarding updates coming to Canadian owners of this phone?
Are we at the mercy of our network provider or will Huawei send OTA updates?
Please delete if I missed the Canadian thread..

Rogers shows a security update. This week

Yet for some reason we still haven't gotten this! Still on August security patch, such bullcrap!

got the update this morning on Fido

Just got the October update now.... We're at the mercy of carriers right now

Yes we are, following my experience with the previous OS update, I expect EMUI 10 in February.

Fidos OS Upgrade page finally shows Android 10 as "coming soon"!

Supposedly starts today
«On January 14th, #EMUI10 will start rolling out to #Canadian owners of the #Huawei P30 and P30 Pro #Android smartphones.

Anyone receive it yet? I have a Telus SIM in a Koodo phone and there's no update for me yet...

I got mine a couple of weeks ago and I'm with Bell

I'm with bell, no update here.

Koodo still nothin tried everything vpn different sim cards, hisuite, hicare, no sim, erecovery, firmware finder. Just ordered a nano memory card if the update doesn't show up I'm following Silvio's guide to flash it

I'm with Telus and I got the update on the day I got the phone which was Tuesday. The update showed up after my initial set-up.

Well that's a f'in fine how do you do. Brand new owner gets the update while we long time users wait twiddling our thumbs. Huawei Canada tweeted it'd be done by the end of January so I know that's BS. It's the 31st and still no update in sight.

I'm with Koodo and the update took place two weeks ago.

Update just dropped on bell

With Koodo and it's finally coming OTA as I type.
