Me too I can see B177 as being available in Firmware Finder but the update is also unauthorized.I'm updating to B177 through FF as we speak.
Edit: yeah strike that, just got the message that the update is unauthorized..
Yes it is. Hopefully by Jan 2018, we might get an Oreo update.I see VKY-AL00 8.0.0.310 (C00), VKY-TL00 8.0.0.310 (C00) listed on FF website : is that the Oreo beta firmware ?
Which modelThere's now another security update in Firmware Finder (B154). December security patch?

How did you tried to rollback to Nougat?For what its worth - I had converted from (Canadian) L09 to L29 to AL00 using HWOTA, then installed the Oreo firmware from FF.
NOT WORTH IT.
Changes partition names, TWRP doesn't work properly and going back to stock EMUI 5 1/Nougat is almost impossible. Hard-Bricked a phone trying (boot loop, no fastboot/recovery access), not sure what happened but thankfully Huawei was understanding and replaced it for me. Don't think it was a rookie mistake as I've been flashing and modding since the Desire Z days...
I would HIGHLY advise waiting for official Oreo and a TWRP that's compatible.
Found a forum with the Mate 9 Oreo TWRP and HWOTA8, tried using those but things didn't go well although others reported that TWRP worked. At the very least, I noticed it couldn't get r/w access to data, even after formatting. There was no official TWRP for the VKY, and normal HWOTA doesn't work with Oreo. One reason I noticed was the partitions being renamed - ie. recovery becomes recovery-ramdisk for flashing purposes. I don't have enough experience tampering with the scripts to point it to different files, if that would even work.How did you tried to rollback to Nougat?

I agree... I guess its a marking issue... They focus on some models rather than the othersI am starting to notice, huawei only gives priority to phones which are also sell in europe and america. Noticed that mate 9/honor series which are globally available, they push oreo update faster. p10/plus unlike mate 9 which are not selling officially selling in america or some parts of europe, update is really slow.
Unfortunately, I agree with you.I am starting to notice, huawei only gives priority to phones which are also sell in europe and america.

Yes. at least they should give same priority updates regardless of the region, at least for their flagship series like p10/p10 plus and mate 9Unfortunately, I agree with you.
And that seems logical from a minimal effort standpoint, you reach most of your customers with less effort.
But I don't like it.
They should either support well all their customers (at very least the high end models) or just make less models. :/
Does anybody has a VKY-AL00 version here? I'm constantly getting "Sorry, quota has been filled up" when I'm trying to updateWhen they will add more to the quota?
