Sad news, this is for emui 4.1,for Vodafone users... Rest of the world have emui 4(.0.3)
So what? Custom rom can be based on newer EMUI version source code I guess...

It's not only custom roms but custom kernels. You can't compile kernel for emui 4.1 and flash it for emui 4.0
Yes, surdu is already working on it.

Huawei released kernel source for roms which will not get further updates...so,we have 2 ideeas: rip vodafone roms, or 2: we will receive emui 4.1 (and i hope... This phone can run it, Huawei sair long time ago that p8 lite will get a little Emui 5 brother... Was that the emui 4.0.3? With sh#t email addition?

I asked greek Huawei page on Facebook and they don't know anything in particular about EMUI 4.1 on P8 Lite... We can flash CAM ROMs in TWRP but some stuff didn't work... I'll try again. Like NFC not working makes sense, but the theme engine doesn't work at all ?

Anyone knows releases emui 4.1 for p8 lite
I would hope for emui 5 with android 7 nougat,I dont feel like emui 4.1 will make such a difference.
Sources say that this will be released in Q1 or Q2 2017 but we dont know whether it is emui 4.1 or 5.

Look at sites like this one:
http://article.isunfar.com.tw/posts/information/Android%207.0%20Nougat的手機升級清單/26950
Its chineese, but the device names could be read ))
"For those wondering, EMUI 5 will be coming to other devices with the update planned for the Mate 8, P9 and P9 Plus early next year followed by the honor 8 and other Honor branded devices in Q2 2017. Hardware limitations aside – such as a dual lens camera etc – most devices getting EMUI 5 should get the full feature set and for those not set to get the update, there will be an updated version of EMUI 4.1 that will bring some of these changes. The P8 and P8 Lite are likely to be two devices that aren’t updated to EMUI 5 but instead get a tweaked version of EMUI 4.1, with some of the functionality from the latest version." android authority

Download done. Will install later today and report back . One question though, is it really worth upgrading from B586 to this?
Is there any ui changes?
nope
Only security update, I can confirm that. Even changelog says that. If you care about Google security patches, then it's worth updating. If not - don't waste your time.

I searched about it, the content of the security is all marked as critical.
So because of it, ill update my rom.
Updating now. I've noticed that the update numbers go +2 in every new update (B586+2=B588). The next update will be EMUI 4.1? I've seen on the builds that 4.1 is B890+. Anyone know anything regarding this?

Well, Vodafone's EMUI 4.1 is marked as a B890, so... :d
Probably our non-branded will have a different number code, but in fact we don't know when it's gonna be released.

Taking into consideration that B586 came in December and B588 in January, i am confident that when (if) B890 comes, it will be in February. Although i tried EMUI 4.1 on one of those custom roms, it isn't something really special. Just one step closer to nougat i guess (if that comes to our phone too )
Don't delude yourself - official Nougat (EMUI 5.0) won't come.

I dont think B890 is really a P8 Lite rom. I belife that its a rom from another Huawei phone ported in P8 Lite, branded as Vodafone to make ppl belive its for P8 Lite.
Personaly I dont belive we gonna get 4.1 emui.
Why you think like that? B890 was officially released by Vodafone through OTA...
There are many custom roms based on EMUI 4.1 for the P8 Lite. Even if what you say @Azzureux is true, 4.1 can work with the phone and will most likely will. From what i've read we will not get EMUI 5.0 but we will get EMUI 4.1 that will make use of some "ported back features" from EMUI 5.0. I don't know what that exactly means, but i guess we are gonna have to wait and see.
Cannot install TWRP after thge update. Any help.? Only once I finally got to install TWRP and entered the recovery but after reboot, there was no custom recovery, only the stock one ....
Because it's stock Rom and it includes stock recovery, which is overwrited on the custom one.
Everybody here is saying that wating for a custom rom for p8lite2017 is a waste of time because huawei doesn't release the sources, then why does honor 8 have so many custom roms for it ? It has EMUI 5 just like us, it's made by the same company in the same year, how did the devs manage to make roms for it ??
Honor 8 source code is released, for P8 Lite 2017 isn't.

Some developers (also I) take the data of the devices which they own. They do not need the official resources. Therefore, there is not custom rom also from devices his resources were published. I build my custom rom when android 8 is released.

I'd be glad if we can get even just a custom kernel..But if we do get a custom rom, then all the more better!

I already work some time on a EMUI 5 custom rom. Alike for Honor 6x. Only of the Kernel is not enough. We also need 100% Recovery. There is not that.

True. Our Recovery isn't that all stable and consistent. I am not really expecting too much from this phone since its a budget device, and I got most of the things I want and need to work: root, busybox, Viper4Android. The TWRP is a bonus, even if its in a semi-usable state.
It's great if we can have Custom ROMs, but even just a custom kernel will suffice for now.
OFFTOPIC: On another note, I am hoping that Xposed will somehow work for Android 7 onwards. Even without a Custom ROM, that will open a lot of doors for customization.

What's with KitKat? There are security patches every month until now, right? Why not use a good old version? I have tested android 8.0.0 on moto g and I like android 7.1.2, too. It's not really a necessary update. We can really be happy with 7.1.2. The difference between 6.0 and 7.0/7.1 is so much bigger than the differences between 7.0/7.1 and 8.0.0. And 8.0.0 is old in few weeks, because android 8.1 is coming to pixel2-launch
