So when do we get Oreo and EMUI 6.0?

Back to the OP:
Huawei says the Mate 9 will get OREO within 4 weeks of the Mate 10 release.

You know me...I think it's BS from Huawei frankly.

That should be mid December I'm assuming? I'm sure they will - too much on the line now to damage their reputation. They are too high profile now. Could get away with non-support and software delays when nobody has ever heard of your brand before. Huawei has gained traction in the US now. User base might be small, but it's growing.

They already got the Oreo beta out. They might keep their word this time

That doesn't sound very re affirming at all.

How are you guys with MHA-L29 getting the Beta? I tried when it was first announced and tried just now and said there weren't any projects.

The beta invites were all filled a while back.
If I remember correctly there were 200-250 spots.

I didn't get it either.

Would you be able to get it through the firmware finder app?

One feature I love about the Mate10 is the private space feature. hopefully they can bring that to the update.

Private Space is in this build for the C567. It's pretty awesome. Down side is you can't used SAD card as default storage when using this feature.

The Euro/UK beta version can be downloaded and flashed from here:

Not for me though...too much trouble.
I'd rather have the fully functioning phone.

I am assuming that you meant to say sd card?

Oh that's cool. I agree it's a lot of effort, but available for those who must have oreo now

Is that similar to Samsung's secure folder feature?
