Got a quick question about the current firmware for the U.S version of the M3. Got this M3 recently and couldn't be happier. It's just a solid product and once I got everything setup the way I wanted, I've been very impressed with pretty much everything.
My question is related to the latest U.S firmware. When I received the tablet, I checked for an update to EMUI 5 and there was none, so I used firmware finder and downloaded the upgraded firmware, changed a proxy setting on my wifi connection and that download sent the update to Huawei's upgrader and then performed the upgrade to EMUI 5 fortunately without any problems. When I checked the upgrade again, I received a notice of a further upgrade, this time directly from Huawei, and that was just a small 50mb file, so I'm running what I believe to be the latest version. Just was going through a post on Amazon stating the version coming from firmware finder is a U.S beta. Can someone tell me if the build number BTV-W09C128B351 that I currently have on mine is the latest version and not a beta? Probably will find the answer after searching through the forum, but couldn't hurt to ask owners just to make sure.
P.S Reading that other people have received an update to EMUI 5 when they first turn on their M3 and others having to perform the upgrade themselves.
Edit : So, I was going to delete this because basically the following thread pretty much answered my question, but couldn't delete it, so here we are.
