Without unlocking the bootloader it will be difficult ?
please stop asking questions nobody knows... it will be out when its ready.
Interestingly Huawei offered to update my phone beyond the Three UK v134 ..... But only if I sent the phone off to their engineers.

First, it was a legitimate question that somebody working at the appropriate place could very well know the answer to, second it is ready according to Huawei's own Weibo account.
I did hear from a couple of users that they've been told by Huawei Europe that the roll out of emui 9 will be on or near December 22 (Croatia and Serbia respectively).
I spoke with a Huawei Canada customer service representative who told me that the November 10 roll out was for Chinese models only and that no specific date has been provided for the North American release. They suggested following Huawei Mobile on social media for updates
?
So the more answers they give, the more questions remain.
If Europe is getting it December 22, the rest of the world can't be far behind.

Yes, Huawei Croatia said that roll out will be on December 22, and Huawei Serbia talk only about December (without precise day)
Conversely, you can try using Firmware Finder from the app store. I suggest watching a YouTube video on how to use it properly to install any available firmware for your Huawei device.
Given uk devices are still waiting on GPU turbo update that rolled out to other devices in the summer, I expect we might get pie by Easter?.... And I really wish that was sarcasm.
It seems the beginning will be 22nd of December, but national operators will hold it a bit, as usual.
I just contacted Three support to ask when updates (any updates!) are being pushed.... they responded:
"the android version are available on the Google store, Three provide with the phone and not android version."
Erm... what?!?!?!
---------- Post added at 17:11 ---------- Previous post was at 16:13 ----------
I've managed to speak to a customer relations manager - they are pushing an update next week, but won't say what version it is!
"As this point of time, the technical team are not ready to reveal that information. As they have been told by Huawei not to reveal this information till the software is realeased."!!
I have, however, managed to convince them to release me from the 24mth contract so I can return the phone. Fed up with the lack of development caused by the bootloader unlock issue, and the ridiculous lack of updates.
Anyone seen this?

The models listed in the article should be the same ones that have EMUI 9 available for download through the Firmware Finder app.
Unfortunately, my model isn't listed as I'm sure others are missing too.
My model is listed in the article but not in firmware finder for pie
Not sure about trying it myself
Supposedly there might be a release to a major European market by the end of next week. I'd wait before trying something that's uncertain. Hopefully Canada isn't too far behind.
Last time Three UK told me something was "imminent" it was security patches that were already outdated and no new features at all.

According to HTC, Gingerbread upgrade for Incredible S will be on June for Singapore.
"Dear Alexander,
Thank you for contacting HTC.
With reference to your query, Incredible S may receive upgrade to Android 2.3 in June this year.
Thank you for your continuous support of our products and services. Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
We look forward to be of service to you again"
That's pretty slow, my opinion.
Better late than never? LOL
June....I hoping we got the update in April. I guess June is about right. These next 2 months the phone should be out there more in one variation or another in the Canada, the States and some more places overseas.
In my opinion to HTC's reply is earliest is June.

True ....
If it will be as with the Hero, then the update will be released at Christmas time, at best
This has alreayd been posted before:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1014937
and I'll say what I said there again. Customer services just give a generic date, until HTC make an official announcement, they don't know anymore than we do. I have already seen a couple of leaks of the GB rom floating about (nothing that can be publicly released or flashed due to NDA's) but I can't see any reason for it not being sooner
When it launches as the droid incredible 2 here in the states it will have gingerbread pre-loaded, so there would be no excuse to not have the INCs on GB before that, verizon ad's a ton of crapware to the device and not to mention cdma vs. gsm, we should get gingerbread before the Dinc2, at least I hope so.
Tab A has got its update, not even a flag ship device.
Still nowt for the Tab S.
http://www.sammobile.com/2016/05/18/samsung-galaxy-tab-a-receives-android-6-0-marshmallow-update/
Flagship means nothing to Samsung. :thumbdown:
Maybe I'm just in denial (feels like it to be honest), but I refuse to accept (for now at least) that we won't be getting MM. I must remain hopeful...:crying:
So does Samsung seem to release updates to the newest phone/tablets first and then work backwards with the oldest being last if at all.
John.
We will get it soon
Sent from my SM-T705 using Tapatalk
I have a Note 4 and the Tab S and I tell you these will be my last Samsung devices! No updates on supposed flagship devices is abysmal! Next phone will be a Nexus and probable their tablet too.
i recall seeing a chart somewhere,was that just bogus ?
There were a couple of unofficial photo/lists the first had the Tab S1 8.4" getting MM from April, the second photo showed NO Tab S1 models at getting updated to MM, these are now very old and should not be relied on.
I think the Tab S1 will get updated to MM in the next couple of months.

By the time the Tab S gets MM the AOSP build will have matured enough for daily use

Samsung Support said:
Dear [removed],
Thank you for contacting Samsung. With reference to your E-mail, I understand that you would like to know whether Samsung will release the Android Marshmallow update for your Tab S (model: SM-T700NTSAXAR). I can imagine how bothering and inconvenienced this would have been. Currently, there is no new update: Marshmallow available for your tablet model. We at technical support are not able to speculate the estimated time period of the update release and exact version of the update as it may lead to incorrect estimation of the update release information, also there is no official word available to state about the update availability . However, once any new update is released, it will be notified on the tablet in Apps > Settings > About device > Software Update. You can also check for the new Software update notification information on Samsung website under News section. I hope you understand. Please refer to the link below to access Samsung News website:
http://www.samsung.com/us/news/
The update time will be varied from model to model and location to location. I understand how important the update is for you. Usually, the updates will be released in batches. Once the new update is released for the batch to which your tablet belongs, then your tablet will also receive the update notification.
Also, I see that there is no test or app available from Samsung to test or run the battery function. I hope you understand.
If you have any questions, please get back to us. We will be glad to assist you.

I got that from them when asking about 5.1 god knows how long ago (8 months?). The don't give a toss. Samsung Support does not exist. You might as well ask a man/woman on the street.
Galaxy S5 gets MM , fingers crossed .. http://www.ubergizmo.com/2016/05/t-mobile-rolls-out-marshmallow-for-galaxy-s5-handsets/
The Tab S was realeased 2-3 months after the S5 so Samsung cannot say it`s to old.

If they don't release a mm update to a flagship device it will be a shame. But I think that they probably will release it. Just my opinion.

Yea but Samsung doesn't care about how old these things are...
The Tab Pro 8.4 was released in Jan 2014, and never got lollipop that was released in Dec 2014... in other words, they stopped support after 11 MONTHS!
Does anyone know whether the Mi Mix will get the Nougat update? And if not, whether it is possible to install a clean android version on there?
I have contacted Xiaomi in every country to see if anyone is able to give me a direct answer. I'll post it here, when i get one.

Probably within a few months would not count on it sooner than that really.
I noticed that both Germany (upated to 127) and India (face unlock) have had updates but after talking on chat to the UK Honor rep there apparently is no information about any updates/features for UK customers.
Additionally tried to register for club.hihonor.com and the 'Country/Region' selection does not even include the UK at all.
So apparently we're ok to buy them and pay full price same as everyone else, but not ok for the same level of support or customer service.
I'm putting this here because I bought this phone after the positive reviews from many commentators but it's now obvious to me that these commentators don't all do their homework properly and some just concentrate on the product and forget about the other differentiator, which is the after-sales, customer service and support.

I think you just should wait. According to project Treble you should get updates anyway sooner or later.

Yes I'm aware of project treble, but that has absolutely nothing to do with honor, several other android phones support project treble indeed it is a must by google that any device with Oreo out of the box has to support it. The point i was making was particular to honor support not android in general. Additionally project Treble requires you to unlock the BL, OTA updates by manufacturer do not.

Apologies but your quoted project treble so i assumed you were familiar with what that entails. You can read up on it if you need deeper info but what it comes down to is to use project treble you replace your system.img partition and you cannot do that without unlocking your bootloader. A manufacturer provided OTA update is signed and therefore updates your system normally without having to unlock anything just a standard system update. That is why the point is that if honor does not provide updates you have to resort to some custom update which is not the same. Now Honor has already updated both German and Indian honor 9 Lite (read threads here and you'll find reference to that) but UK ones are not even scheduled according to their own customer service who i chatted with. Try and register on club.hihonor.com and you'll discover the UK according to them is not even on the planet since they list most countries except the UK.

As far as I understood Project Treble is more related to the vendor partition. Never ever heard before that you have to unlock the bootloader to get updates from Project Treble. Are you sure about that? Any links?

go here https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...-development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659 and search for 'vendor partition' and you'll realise what you say is partially correct. Some vendors integrate the vendor partition inside system.img some have A and B partitions some only have A partition (like ours). You can never overwrite the system partition without unlocking the bootloader because it is set to read only, if it wasn't the whole of the android community would be in a heap of trouble. Imagine users (who don't know what they're doing) gaining access to /system and amending stuff, the result will most likely boot loop or soft/hard brick your device.
Anyway, this is taking us away from the point I was making and apologies but will not be adding anything further, if you do not agree with it that ofcourse is your prerogative.

Actions speak louder than words and by its actions to its UK customer base huawei/honor is showing how much it truly values us. Since there is absolutely nothing we can do about it i suggest best course of action is to vote with your feet and next purchase will be anything but a huawei/honor. At least that is still within our control. Huawei/honor give you some great value on hardware side unfortunately evidence shows that doesn't carry over to the software.

Which is what mine said till i used the Firmware tool on this site to upgrade from 8.0.0.128 to 8.0.0.131 so now i am on the latest. If you do the same i suggest you use the Full OTA update.
Huawei UK also said that 8.0.0.128 was the latest for the UK as well.
Just had an email from Xiaomi UK customer support saying after the MIUI 12 update we should expect to see further updates to the device. It's a flagship device in the UK and one of the only Xiaomi devices sold on all major UK networks so it's to be expected they would need to start getting updates out for it.
Here is the email:
Dear Sir/Madam
Greetings from Xiaomi
Thank you for contacting us, We’re sorry to hear about this , we wanted to assure the stable software to be sent out for our 5G devices , there will be an update soon via MIUI 12 update , we could assure that you will receive further updates.
Best Regards,
Thanks, Let's hope they follow through
I wish that is true, but honestly I doubt it. I got this 5g version in a sale but I didn't imagine it was abandoned by Xiaomi.
Unfortunately miui 12 with Android 9. A shame! Untill the end of September they should update this unlucky phone
There seems to be mixed reports coming out Xiaomi regarding this, some customer service reps are saying October and others (more recent referencing this article: https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/07/...-mix-3-5g-says-xiaomi/#:~:text=GizmoChina.com ) are saying discontinued. Unfortunately at this stage it is a wait and hope scenario.
I found this on reddit
