firmware update.

hello everyone. my phone is huawei p8 lite (ALE-L21C30B121)
so, for example, china releases android 6.0 beta, I see alot of posts about it, with steps, guides and all...
but I was wondering, if I want to install that ROM (android 6.0) can I install it directly from B121 to B5xx?
if not, how do I upgrade/downgrade from B121 to Bxxx, so I can make the B5xx update?
another question was - is it restricted to regions? I mean the "C30" it stands for Latvia, as I live in europe, and I have an europian P8 lite.
if yes, how can I change the "C30" to "C432" or other region, that has the official update?
hopefully I get an answer
early thanks!

Chinese stock ROM to International

Hi guys,
There's an offer from aliexpress for the P9 Lite but from the feedbacks, the phone is coming with a chinese firmware. Well, you can set the language you want but some people say it still has some chinese stuff.
Would it be possible to Flash the phone with the lastest official Rom (international) from Huawei ? With this tool ? https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...pe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873/page53
I've made some search and came with a tutorial with dload and just an sdcard with the content of the new ROM. Is it just simple as that ? Will it erase every chinese stuff and put Google Play Store ?
Thank you very much.

First, which model is it? There are some particular chinese model that have a different chipset so it may be incompatible with international firmware.

I have a VNS-L23 model can i flash the international firmware on it

Yes you should be able to do it. I don't have the link at the moment, but if you search Huawei Firmware Finder you can find a tool to search all Huawei firmware. The European ROM is c432 and the international one is the c900

Thanks i debranded last night and my phone is currently saying VNS-L31C432

Theorically if he flashes c432 oeminfo it should work.
The AL00 version is a different phone with a snapdragon chipset so be very careful.

No. You can't . Different hardware. You may brick your device.

I have a vns-l23 on build vns-l23c45b130, would it hurt anything to flash the international rom (c900)?

Compatibility between diferents models of P8 lite

Hi guys.
I had a long time without post anything. Today I want to ask them something. Maybe it's only a fooliness but.... if I see a ROM that have compability with the ALE-L21 model and my phone is a ALE-23 model, but in the rom's post is explicit mentioned only the L21 version ¿What is the risk? ¿Softbricked? ¿Bootloop? or it should work. I wonder this obviously for security but also because I want to prove some ROMS like Flyme, MIUI, etc. that -sadly- only says "ALE-L21" in the post. :crying::crying:
Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor english.

P8 lite ALE-L21 firmware update

Hey guys, I have been trying to help my friend who owns a P8 lite, to upgrade his firmware because his phone is in a buggy state where the wi-fi doesn't show any network at all, he can only use data..., and any OTA updates fail.
He is currently on ALEL21C22B190 version. First of all when I was searching for europe firmwares, they all had the C432 code, so I have prepared 3 firmwares for this route:
ALE-L21C432B204 -(5.0.1. to be ready to receive Marshmallow)
ALE-L21C432B564 -(Initial Marshmallow firmware)
ALE-L21C432B636 -(Latest Marshmallow firmware)
So my first question is this. If I do the standard SD card Update.APP way of upgrading, will the C22 current version allow me to install the C432 version?
If not I have downloaded this C22 version, (which I couldn't find easily) ALEL21C22B582 for a marshmallow version.
What do you think guys? Am i thinking this correctly? Will the C432 versions work?
And what the hell is wrong with his wi-fi sensor!
Edit: Foundout from here that C22 is for China,Europe apparently, but the lack of C22 downloads intrigues me.
