Update [November 15, 2016]: Huawei just released the Nougat beta as an OTA for its Honor 8 users, but the best part is that the firmware is available for manual download and installation. Find the Honor 8 Android 7.0 Nougat beta firmware below, which comes as software version B301, and needs B140 as base. So, yes, B140 software version is indeed a requirement for installing Nougat beta firmware. We have provided link to B140 firmware too, so that if you are not on B140, you can download and install it to be ready for Android 7.0 beta.
The Honor 8 from Huawei, it must be said, is an honorable device, one that packs in some serious punches in its spec-sheet. No doubt you are loving it if you have bought it, and would be up and running some tweaks on it. Well, in case your such act results into device suffering software issues (bootloop, soft brick, etc.) then we are here to help you with that: just download and install the Honor 8 firmware provided below, and that would solve all such problems with the device.
Be sure to download the firmware for your particular region. Installing the firmware of another region or variant could damage your device.
The Honor 8 is yet to receive the Android 7.0 Nougat update from from Huawei, so until then, let’s keep loving Marshmallow.
