There's a way to get Nougat OTA without custom recovery or root and without losing your data by using Firmware Finder at google play. It will force Nougat OTA to your phone.

Since My phone is already in Nougat Beta program. I will always received Nougat OTA. So I purposely debrand my phone to C432 region and try it. To answer your question. Yes I've tried it and it worked.

Not sure if you will receive from official huawei but the Firmware Finder app will push it to your phone. In other words, The app will trick your system updater that you have Nougat OTA. That's all.

You need to enable installation via system updater under the setting menu. After that select firmware B521 then send firmware to updater. A guide will popup to tell you what to do.

PS : Always backup first before you install. Just incase anything happen.

according to the forumers here, downgrade can be done using dload method. The only downside is u will be losing data. I personally didn't try it because i can't afford to reinstall everything all over again.
