if so, do factory reset in xrecovery then re-install it
You must extract downloaded zip to /xrecovery/backup and then in xrecovery select restore
Extract???...let me have a try....Yeah, you are right, extract it follow you told, it success, thanks a lot, buy most people said that just .zip put in the folder just ok....why i can't......
I tried to flash my HTC HD2 with this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
after installing Hardspl 2.08 i used MAGLDR1.13
but now the phone just boots with white screen and HTC logo
i guess i forgot to install the radio?
but what now?
cant reach bootloader
just comes up for one second when i try hardreset
then asks for restoring to factory setting but that doesnt work neither
is it possible to autoflash with some sort of sd card
or do i have a chance to get at least usb connection up again ?
Thanks for help
edit
ive read that its possible to boot from sd card, using some sort of LEOIMG.nbh at root directory
extracted exe file and renamed "RUU_signed.nbh" to LEOIMG.nbh
ill try next step tommorow
gn8 ^^
You know the keys to get into bootloader isn't the same as for a hard reset, right?
Hold volume down only, tap and release power, release vol down only when stripey screen appears.
uhm, thanks ...
i swear it didnt work but for some reason now works
ive read in that guide
"3. Browse to the folder you extracted your NAND Android Package files to on your pc, right click on Run DAF.exe (or Install.exe if DAF.exe isnt present) and select Run as Administrator"
but in "Tyween's Typhoon CM7 v3.6.3" rom is neither daf or install.exe?
Do i have to launch magldr from pc and preload rom into it, befor transfering it into htc?
sorry ... im still confused
well okay i think i hav eto upload some files into it, but which? all of zip or do i have to upload the original zip?
inside that zip theres "boot, meta-inf and system"
Copy the whole zip to SD and install it from cwm.
ive done it, thanks
link to the ROM on www.narod.ru. Type digit code, press "скачать", and have a link.
original post here.
If you have Android 2.2 on your phone:
1. Download the archive;
2. Create in the root of SD-card folder "dload";
3. Write to the new folder, all files from step1/dload (UPDATE.APP and UPDATE_g.APP);
4. Insert a memory card into the phone (if not already inserted) and pull out the battery;
5. Turn on the phone, holding down the volume up and down;
6. Once the firmware is installed, delete the folder dload all the files and write files from step2/dload;
7. Repeat the procedure for the folder step3/dload.
If you have Android 2.3 on your phone:
1. Download the archive;
2. Delete a file UPDATE.APP from folder step1/dload;
3. Rename a file UPDATE_g.APP to UPDATE.APP;
4. Create in the root of SD-card folder "dload";
5. Write to the new folder the renamed file UPDATE.APP from a folder step1/dload;
6. Insert a memory card into the phone (if not already inserted) and pull out the battery;
7. Turn on the phone, holding down the volume up and down;
8. Once the firmware is installed, delete the folder dload all the files and write files from step2/dload;
9. Repeat the procedure for the folder step3/dload.
* If any of the processes will not start - log-in and run the installation manual settings-memory-upgrade software.
* If some of the processes of updating the device hanging - wait 10 minutes then remove the battery. After 10 seconds, reinsert.
On my phone firmware write good. First run language is english, and you must manually configure APN.
any fixes???
Hi,
thank you very much for sharing this great news.
Anyway I would like to know if this new firmware is fixing the sdcard mount problem, the multitouch bug and the accelerometer.
Another thing: can you enter in pink screen mode with this new base-rom?
Regards,
kalo86

Unfortunately I no have information about any fixes.
Most likely, it`s the last firmware on 2.3, no more updates. OTA is not expected - install manually. About the ICS no any information yet.
First personal experience - a better camera and battery life. Still testing.

Thank you for the quick answer!
Since you are able to enter in pink screen mode, can you upload the original/stock boot.img?
I just extracted the rom from UPDATE_g.APP but I can only manage the system.img and the only way to extract the boot.img is the pink screen.
Thank you in advance!

This is a clear original ROM, no patch or root. I make standard root procedure, it's work.

B552 = B540 + Pink Screen Mode, nothing more
Ok, thank you always, but I flashed the update and copied the boot.img file through the pink screen.
The ROM has FPS limit and the compass mode in Google Maps Street View doesn't work, maybe with a reboot the compass mode will work fine.
The external sdcard is not correctly mounted after a full shutdown, so the bug persists still now.
The multitouch bug after the lockscreen is also in life...
Then I have a question: what did Huawei do on this new B552 base?
The only thing I see like a "news" is Google Music, nothing more.
I have a conclusion:
B552 = B540 + pink screen
Regards,
kalo86
downloading it now
tomorrow i will extract the zip and i will update to this stock firmware.
then i will copy the boot.img on my pc, i will extract the system.img from updata_g.app and i will cook the new version of my Countach
Hi Matteo,
yes, I did the same procedure, you can extract only system.img with dsixda kitchen, if you want boot.img you need to install with the dload folder procedure the original firmware and then put your U8800 Pro in pink screen mode.
If you trust in me, you can take my boot.img, it's the same of the original one but I only added root permission and init.d run-script.
Hoping to help, this is the file for you and other people:

Standard root:
1. Go to pink screen.
2. Replace original boot.img with patched, save original.
3. Reboot, wait when phone fully load .
4. Go to pink screen again and recover original boot.img, reboot.
5. When phone load wipe factory settings.
6. Done, your phone rooted.
For me it's work without problem.

pure
on SD card make directory named "dload"
copy the UPDATE_g.APP into (approx 370 MB)
rename the UPDATE_g.APP to UPDATE.APP
update via SD card update (no pinkscreen), but if you want, use pinkscreen, it is the same
immediately after first reboot, pull out the battery, insert the batt. go to pinkscreen, delete the ****ty cust.img, reboot and continue with installation.
you will get pure gingerbread without any customizations (yes, there is the huawei launcher and beyond the sky theme, i like it)
for root, oc, use geno´s boot.img, for HDR edit the build.prop
if you like huawei´s boot animation, copy it to system/media folder (files bootanimation.zip and bootanimationex.zip)
step 2 and step 3 is not needed
Missed call problem exist? When someone want's to call he heards that you are unavailable/not on network or the phone is turned off.

Hi,
I have a problem with my P8 lite I bought today from some guy. It's stuck on boot logo, I tried wipe cache, factory reset, nothing helps. Tried fastboot, but my phone is locked in a nice green color. Can't unlock it since I don't know any numbers (IMEI, serial, firmware, etc), neither do I have the original package, so basically I'm stuck there. Tried the 3 button method with a 4Gb SD card and a "dload" folder on it with an "UPDATE.APP", still nothing, at 5% it says "Software update failed! Get help from ..... ". Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I watched some youtube videos and saw some guy putting the "dload" folder in the internal memory but since the phone is bricked I can't access it. Maybe that's the issue? Or do I have to use a card adapter instead of my old android phone for data transfers? Pardon my English, I'm more of a speaker than a writer. Any help will be appreciated.
Update: tried software b895(vodafone), now it said "incompatibility with current version" instead of "get help". Am I getting any closer?

I tried UPDATE.APP, because if I get it right, UPDATE.ZIP is only flashable through TWRP, is that correct? I'm doing everything with the 3 button method, anything I try just fails. And upload to SD takes so long that I'm starting to lose patience... Maybe there's some custom ROM that can be flashed through UPDATE.APP? Maybe it's possible to make (convert) one? I'm new to this phone and I swear, this has got to be the most annoying phone ever... I've never encountered such problems with Samsung or Sony phones. Thank you for trying to help because I don't have a single clue of what is going on, since it just says "get help".... Yea, I'm trying to. What about the Vodafone firmwares, why is it telling me that the version is incompatible with my current software? Does it mean that I have to find another version of Vodafone firmware or that I have to use something other than that?

Could you explain more thoroughly please? I tried changing UPDATE.APP extension to UPDATE.ZIP just by renaming the file, put it on a blank SD card (deleted dload folder), but no luck... I read somewhere that this phone could have had a custom firmware installed and that's why it won't budge? Is it possible for example to install TWRP or any custom firmware like AICP and etc. with this method? Then I wouldn't have any issues.

Don't change the extension... Don't extract the update.app from the zip, just let the zip like it is and paste it into internal or external storage, is a flashebel zip and works like update.app.

Hi, I've tried alot of them, just googling and downloading everything that says "ALE-L21", eventhough I'm not even 100% sure about that. For example this one:
Huawei P8 Lite Rollback Package (ALE-L21 C900B500, Android 6.0 to Android 5.0
I don't think this is the right one, Update.app doesn't work, these zips don't work, persona78 mentioned something about META-INF folder, but I can't find a rollback package like that anywhere, I saw some firmwares with that folder inside but they don't seem to work. If I knew exactly what I need to find and do then there would be no problem at all.

You P8 Lite is dual-sim, correct?
If so, try this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73230358&postcount=2
Put it on a folder inside the SD card:
1- Try creating a "dload" folder with just the update.app AND the update.zip
2- If you have space or with doesn't work, delete the previous and just put the update.app AND the update.zip in the SD CARD main folder.
Let us see if you have luck

Yea, it is dual sim. The last time I tried b895 it said "incompatibility with current version". And the others just don't seem to work. But I will try once more the way you told me.
