I can't able to update my Arc S via PC Companian.

Hi frnds.
Im using DoomLord's kernal with AniKings Custom ROM.
If I want to go back original Stock SE my PC companian showing error.
pls help me.

It shows error because you must have locked bootloader to use PC Companion or SEUS.
You can go back to stock SE by:
-flashing a .ftf file
-locking your bootloader and using PC Companion or SEUS
Also you have to flash the stock wifi modules if using DooMKernel v15. Flash them before flashing stock SE, otherwise you don't have how to flash them.

How did you unlock your bootloader?

Just a simple question bro, if bootloader is unlocked, locking it will make things back to the same status as if it was never unlocked?!

No, DRM is still lost

No, there isn't.

Right, but not a big loss, TrackID and like function in the music player won't work anymore, I didn't ever used the like function, and the TrackID can be replaced by other apps like Shazam or SoundHound, or you can use the new TrackID(I found it in the ICS Themes ROM... that aniking thing). The only risk of unlocking bootloader is that if you brick your phone and can't repair it yourself at least to relock the bootloader, you won't be able to use your warranty.

if that's the only loss of unlocking the bootloader then it's not a big deal, but I don't understand why do people unlock their bootloader if they have a newly released device.
Anyways Thanks for the info, I think I will definitely stay away from unlocking that thing

Rollback to mm from NRD90m test-keys HELP

How i can downgrade NRD90m test-keys to L21C432b160 mm with a rollback package ? i tried to put in dload folder but doesent work, i have no root,bootloader is lock(because huawei refuse to give the unlock key), no custom recovery. i want to downgrade because a lot of app is missing , and i want official when they relese it. Thanks and sorry for bad english!

was this updated through official methods?
i have the nrd90-test keys build and i have not managed to find a working image for the DLOAD folder. im also not sure if you can downgrade that easy there is a spanish forum that is oftne linked here with a downgrade guide but you 100% need unlocked bootloader to do that.

No i updated trough Charles app with fake ip adress. I tried to unlock bootloader but Huawei doesent want to give me unlock key because warranty,they sended me a mail.

MANY, MANY people warn about not using that method (even me) because it doesn't let you update correctly, why d'you do that? Now without an unlocked bootloader you can't even go back. Can't do anything, actually. Because to go back to MM you need it unlocked. Any other method doesn't work. Just try to obtain the bootloader code, in the meantime you can't do anything but wait. Maybe next time read other people's experiences before trying to mod your device?

I Think You were using wrong update.app . Tell me your modle number & region . I will give update.app. You can easily rollback with it

Hi, I'm currently running in android 7.0, I done the unofficial update and as it happened to everyone I don't have all the apps, I have unlocked. Bootloader, I live in UK and my model number is VNS-L31, if you give the right "update.app" file and I put it In a folder called dloader that I will make then press [+vol]+[-vol]+[power] it will downgrade to the normal update and it will be the same like when I bought it?

i have the same problem if any one have the solution tell us

Try dc phoenix. To load a mm update.app. Should work even with locked boot loader or if you brick the phone. I had a similar thing happen with an it's update, I think its because I had root and redo installed.

i ended up sending the device to huawei vip service, they replaced the motherboard. i was kind of surprised, i had expected them to just reflash stock firmware but no.

How can I root or at least get Lineage OS with Nougat?

I have nougat already and was expecting for a easier way to unlock bootloader than in Marshmallow so I waited for it. Now with Nougat I see it very impossible to root or get Lineage. So can someone please do a guide for my problem please?

Lots of guides already.

It's the same process. Downgrade bootloader to unlockable version, unlock, flash TWRP, flash ROM, flash Gapps. Pays to read and search player.

I agree readling through all these threads its mass confusion. Some say it works with nougat some say it bricks there devices. Is there a simple one click root like wugfresh has with the nexus devices

Many guides explains very well. If you are unsure about what you are going to do with your device then my advice is that you stay on stockrom until you understand and know what you are up to.

Well to be fair you can just look things up for yourself. He does have a point, stay on the stock rom so you can learn more about the device. Read all the guides that you can find. No need to be rude, thank you.

Oh okay, let's just assume that you know what EDL mode, DFU mode, and FTM mode are. And that you know what happens if you get a DFU brick, what is the solution... Read a bunch of guides and help threads before doing anything, especially if this is your only phone or if you can't use the warranty

To be fair, there isn't a guide for using MiFlash to downgrade the device from Nougat to MM.
I'd suggest you look for the MiFlash download link in the Download Center sticky and then download the necessary MM ROM for your device.
From then on you can just follow a guide to unlock the bootloader using axon7tool and install twrp etc.

Very nice, but I think his problem is that he needs to downgrade to Marshmallow before he even attempts to unlock the bootloader.
I'm an A2017G user, not a 2017/2017U user, so it might be slightly different for you guys (didn't think it was?), but I believe that you can't unlock the bootloader if your device is already on Nougat, it must be downgraded first.

Yes you do need to downgrade, there's a toolkit that does everything for you and I believe it was mentioned a few times in this thread.

Any reason not to relock boot loader after installing Android P Preview 2?

In following the Essential support page's instructions for installing the Android P Preview 2, I unlocked my boot loader.
Now I'd like to relock the boot loader, but I remember reading a thread here about a guy who tried to relock the book loader after having installed (and maybe uninstalled) a custom ROM. He ended up bricking his phone.
Is there any danger in relocking my boot loader if I have only installed factory-provided versions of Android?
FWIW, my first attempt to load Android P did go well; wifi wouldn't work. I reinstalled Oreo. The next day, I tried side loading Android P, and that went fine.

If you are all stock and no root, no harm in relocking the boot loader.
Just make sure you haven't done any modifications to your phone..

You didn't actually need to unlock your phone to sideload the Android P preview. Sideloading an OTA works with a locked bootloader. Your phone needs to be fully stock if you plan on relocking your bootloader. That means no custom recovery, no root and no modifications to the system partition. You can definitely run the Android P preview with a locked bootloader--I am--but if your bootloader is already unlocked you want to make sure your phone has no custom modifications before relocking it or you will brick your phone. Relocking your booloader will also erase all your data.

I see no reason to relock it whatsoever. High potential risk, and what is the gain?

Passing safety net without screwing around with magisk. And getting OTA's which have been pretty frequent since launch. That's what's kept me stock!

Yeah, I realized that I could sideload the AndP preview only after trying the "recommended" fastboot method described on the Essential site. The only reason I unlocked the bootloader was to flash AndP, following Essential's instructions. Then then fastboot method didn't even work.

Having an unlocked bootloader has no effect on OTAs. Rooting, installing a custom recovery or custom kernel is what causes OTA issues.

Every time you unlock or relock your bootloader it erases your data like a factory reset. But having an unlocked bootloader by itself doesn't prevent you from installing OTAs normally.

and a quote:
Rooted users started noticing the app gone from Google Play on their devices over the weekend, and Netflix eventually confirmed it did this intentionally. The streaming service is now using Google's Wildvine DRM to block the app from rooted devices that don't pass Wildvine's security status, and its Google Play listing will not appear for devices that fail a SafetyNet check, which not only rules out rooted phones but also unrooted phones that are bootloader-unlocked.r

As far as I know, the ta 1025 is basically the same as ta 1021. The recovery is in the [RECOVERY] TWRP 3.2 (and a sneak peak...) Thread here in the forums. You have to look for the image with 64bit on the filename, it lays in a MEGA link. Sorry for not linking but I am on mobile now and don't have that much time. I'll link it later.

Unfortunately not, because it is commercial software.

You can use the OST LA to reflash it to TA-1025.
And follow this guide to root your phone:

But this is 3rd party software that costs actual money, OST LA is hacked/free

Well its a long process I used a post called convert global to Chinese ROM nokia 6 and I followed the instructions.then I proceeded to buy a bootloader unlock key and did the note you must click on edit phone information in OST before attempting the unlock as it needs the service permissions then just use fastboot with latest adb platform tools .i used the dm-verity commands to allow partition flashing and the critical commands for bootloader flashing and I flashed the unlock bin file.Im using the Chinese ROM as it has more features and NFC you'd have to sideload the play store but it works.also wouldn't hurt to check the forums for the other commands.the official recovery on twrp.me works flawlessly.also make sure you battery is at the least 50% charged anything below 15%charge ost will refuse to flash

Im thinking of getting the Nokia 6 from amazon but the model they sell isnt listed and the rooting guides I find require the phone model number.
Anyone else purchase from amazon and if so what model is the one they sell?

Also where you able to root on oreo? The guides I found so far seem to indicate its not working yet

In the mean time when the firmware is flashed update it decided taking risk at this for fun.also I can't live without my magisk modules.so anyone that sees this post follow it.it should work. I assume it should work on other Nokia 6 variants as well.
