Well it seems it works fine with only one sim card.

Can the B120 model be upgraded to Marshmallow?

Which black model do you have from Telkom Mobile? ALE-L02 or ALE-L21? I have the black one model ALE-L02 but haven't received any update as yet even when checking with the updater program on phone.

Device is an ALE-L02
Build number ALE-L02C190B570

Have not had time to play with it yet.

Battery usage is better with only one sim. I can get through a day with 2 sims, but with one I can get 2 days light usage and 1 day heavy.

Yeah, I have the L02....B130 and still nothing, guess I should just be patient.

My phone has found the update, but the update keeps failing. It says "package checksum error". I have the AL02 and haven't rooted or anything like that.

The slow release cycle from Huawei SA (or our local SP's) is pushing me towards a Nexus 6P instead of P9 for my next upgrade.

+1

I was able to update my TM p8 lite to MM.

Guys

I have changed the version of my P8 lite to one which allowed me to be able to utilise 2 sims, will the updating of the android version cause me to lose this?

Ke? I didn't know that the colour of the device would matter.
