Hello Everyone, I have ALE-L21 and my current firmware is C185B130 (apparently C185 is UAE region but i live in pakistan). Device is bootloader unlocked, rooted with TWRP installed.
I have a TWRP backup of current rom. I wanna try the 5.1 beta released for Europe but it says here ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/beta-firmware-p8-lite-ale-l21-c432b008-t3243228 ) that i need C432B132 to upgrade to this. So I downloaded this firmware(C432B132) from Huawei website. There were two folders in it, dload and CUSTOM(not sure what that for). I extracted system.img, recovery.img, CUST.img, boot.img from UPDATE.APP given in the dload folder. So here is what i'm thinking.
1) Flashing the extracted system.img, recovery.img, CUST.img, boot.img would get me to C432B132?
2) After i install B132 can I upgrade to 5.1 using EMUI local update?
3) If something goes wrong, can I just flash TWRP and restore the backup?
-
Or this whole idea is foolish and i would screw up my phone after flashing system, cust and boot of some other firmware designed for some other region???

No this is wrong
1. You need to downgrade to B052
2. Install B136a
3. Install B008(Android 5.1.1)
After each install is recommended to make wipe
Thanks

I dont think that you need to go all the way to B052 and then flash the required version
This is what i did:
1) Flashed 132 cust, recovery, boot, system. My build number changed to something like balong ( I dont remember exactly :silly: ).
2) I flashed the UPDATE.APP file that was in the CUSTOM folder (that came with B132 rar file) via EMUI and it restored my build to B132.
3) Tried updating to 5.1 via EMUI but failed.
4) To give it a last try, I downloaded and flashed my phone with CUST, recovery, system, boot.img of B136a and then the update worked. My phone is now 5.1.1 B006
Thanks for the reply mate :good:

yeah its working fine. I think the battery life has improved a little bit or maybe it is just because i haven't installed much apps after flashing this rom compared to when I was using the B130. The only thing i miss from B130 is that small 2g, 3g written on the signal bars. This one only shows the 2g or 3g network type when the mobile data is turned on. Huawei cloud is also not present in it so you may wanna backup your contacts and stuff

Give It a try. If i doesn't work then you can just flash 132->136 and then apply update. But there maybe some problem with the version number changing to "BALONG". I faced this problem when I flashed 132 over my 130 but then I applied UPDATE.APP file(the small file in the custom folder) via EMUI Updater and it fixed the version number. But the 136a rom did not had any UPDATE.APP in custom folder so I dont know what to do if you get a version number problem. You can try flashing the 5.1 update via EMUI and maybe it will fix the version number problem (if it happened in the first place) or you can always goto 132->136 and apply 5.1

yes you need to unlock the boot loader. What exactly do you mean by double tap issue? are you talking about the double tap to wake feature not working sometimes? Yes the DoubletapToWake dont works sometime which can be very annoying so I just disabled that feature and using the power button ever since. As for the typing issue, No I'm not facing any typing issues, never did on the B130 and not on this 5.1 version. Try using someother keyboard app?

Thanks for the guide, however, I couldn't get it to work on my UK H7. I'm already on B180 with no root and bootloader still locked so I just proceeded from step 9. I placed the UPDATE.APP from the update.zip I downloaded to the dload folder but it fails (like you said) but when i reboot i'm still on B180.
I also tried just placing the update.zip directly into dload but that also fails after attempting a local update.
Any ideas?

Hi Andy
I think it maybe because you are not rooted or you may have done something different.
Try downloading the files again.
If not follow this official guide if you are not rooted http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/377073-how-to-update-your-honor-7-to-marshmallow/

I backed up, just in case.
I tried again, the update went really quick (like 15 seconds) then said it was complete and I restarted. Since then it has been sat with the honor boot up logo for about 10 minutes... I'm just going to wait and hopefully it will boot into the android system
EDIT: So it's not progressing from the boot logo... I went into the recovery and wiped/factory reset to see if that would help but it's just sat at the boot logo again and won't go any further
I can obviously get to recovery and to the update screen so I'll have to try and download the full B121 ROM and put it on my SD card to try again.

Are you running custom recovery or stock?
If you are on stock recovery Start a fresh install
download the full B121 firmware flash it and after setup you should get OTA update notification proceed with the update once the update it done to b180 download the full firmware for marshmallow from here http://www.hihonor.com/uk/support/details/?DOC_ID=77509
Extract the zip file once done you will see a dload folder copy the UPDATE.APP to you dload folder in your sd card then go to settings and update click on local update and update the phone.
Let me know if it worked.

Yes, full stock. Never rooted or unlocked bootloader. I agree, I think the full 121 upgrade path is probably the best option now, I'm in the process of copying over the update.app from the 121 firmware to my sd card as we speak. I tried the 330 update while I was at work and didn't have my usb sd card reader so I've only just managed to get home and start that now.
EDIT: I'm just getting the update failed message now when attempting to install the B121 Update.App... about 6% into the update, then just asks to reboot system which gets stuck at the boot logo again :/
EDIT 2: After repeatedly trying and switching between B100, B120 and B330 update.App files to try and reflash the firmware the B330 version finally decided to do a full install and complete 100%. Very strange how it literally just decided to work this time but all's well that ends well I guess. If anyone else has this issue then just persevere and keep trying, hopefully it will just work one time!
Thanks Tile and Alphadude for trying to figure it out
for unrooted B180 this is how i did it
I went from B180>B320>B330
downloaded B320 to sd card
extracted intermediate file to sdcard/dload
EMUI update app and manual update
it restarted and did its buisness
deleted the UPDATE.APP from dload folder and copied in the full UPDATE.APP
EMUI update app and manual update
it restarted and did its buisness
then once restarted back into the emui update app and it said the 330 update was available OTA
no data loss through any of it

There's nothing great that I've come across yet. No data lost either doing the upgrade so I'm happy to be on MM.
After the update everything else seems to be working fine and smooth, but i've had several sudden restarts and couple of freezes.
Hello everyone, today for the Honor 6 Plus is a new OTA is the C432B571 some people have jumped him via OTA and others not so you can download the update I put and upgrade to the latest version which is the PE-TL10C432B571.
Instructions: download, unzip and copy the folder dload update.app in SD.
LINK http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G753/g104/v55895/f1/full/update.zip
Awesome..!! This is just like the B190 OTA update for Honor 7.
So they are updating the Lollipop version for their devices too, this is the first approach like this I have seen.
This is an update improving mm is passed from the B560, B571 this new update
Does this work on honor 6 too?

Damn, any word on when h6 gets this?
I'm on the PE-TL10C432B560 but when I tried to update it gave me "FAILED TO UPGRADE" and I was forced to restart my H6+.
Did you get the same error?
I placed my update.app in a dload folder, inside my External SD Card.
Thanks in advance

Have you stock boot and recovery partitions? No root?
If you have, you must remove Supersu (select full unroot), flash stock partitions and then do the update.
If you don't have root, consider first and foremost a backup with Huawei Backup. Then download the zip file from here and follow the instructions.

With the link you provided I was able to successfully upgrade my H6+
Anyway I'm still official, no root, no unlocked bootloader.... strange considering that I lost my MotoG1 warranty after a week
Thanks again
I have downloaded the zip (didn't extract it) and i have created /dload file in internal memory and put that zip inside it, then i have open updater and select that zip and my 6+ enter in installing mode, but it stuck at 99% and it doesn't continue, someone knows whats wrong with it ?
You should have extracted it.
Extract the zip file unitl you have an update.app and put this into your dload folder. Then try updating again with force update method. If this doesn´t work

First I would try to get an update file that I could check its integrity either by MD5 or other form of verification. That would ruled out corrupted file cause.
Second, I would backup all my important things with native Huawei backup app into SD or PC. The I would perform a factory reset and setup just the Google account and Huawei ID if your ROM has one. Also setup HiCare app. Make sure all are updated. Then try to check update and if it works, great, if it doesn´t then try force update.
Only after update I would restore backup.
May I please ask what are the changes in this update? I am a huawei honor 6 plus user.
Thank you in advance for your response!
Does this work on PE-TL10C185B561 ?
As i worked on the steps but it stops at 5% although there is enough free space & battery charge

Thanks it works! Factory reset was needed. I think the problem was, that I encrypted the phone itself before.

From my experience, encrypted phones don´t go along with automatic turn on/off and updates.

If you're already on MM, it's just bug fixes and optimizations
Hi
my device run on PE-TL10C185B510, does this update work and what new features it will add?
Good day all,
In the process of trying to debrand my huawei P9 Lite I think I may have mad a stuff up.
I downloaded: VNS-L21_C432B120_Firmware_CEE&Nordic European_Channel-Others_Andriod 6.0_EMUI 4.1_05013RHT.zip
Extracted the files and copied the update.app to the dload folder on the sd card.
Turned off the phone and initiated the update.
It re flashed the phone and everything appeared fine.
Phone no longer has vodafone nonsense on it
It now reports software version as : VNS-C900b150
Any other attempt to update the phone results in "Software is incompatible"
I see on the box the phone is a VNS-L31 - so I think I flashed the incorrect firmare.
I tried Killer8e's toolkit : http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/development/europe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873
But this always displays phone model as unknown.
Is there a way to "force" a flash back to VNS-L31
Forgot to mention: Everything on the phone appears to be working fine in its current state.
Thanks

Have you tried to flash a l31 rom with the dload method?

Just to clarify, The dload method is uncompressing the firmware and copying uppdate.app to a dload folder on the sd card.
If so then yes I have. It gets to 5% and then tells me incompatible software error and reboots.

Well, if you say that your device is fully functional, you can use it like that.
But if you want to restore it I personally think at two options:
1 - Try to force the update by modifying the build.prop and replace the model number (vns-l21 with vns-l31) but you will need a lot of patience
2 - Decompress the update.app and flash partitions manually via fastboot (boot, system, data, recovery, modem, cust and any other partitions are in the update.app)
Thanks for the help.
I will try the fastboot method. I will search for it myself now, but if anyone has a decent howto it would be appreciated.
i know the 1.25gb file is too small and i had to roll back i see it should be 1.99gb where can i get it for VNS-L31C432B160. firmware finder does not work for me so idk what to do other than dload it with a 1,99gb file.

It's impossible that firmware finder don't work on Europe code ( c432 ) .
Download firmware finder
Download proxy installer from FF settings ( set proxy install )
Find ROM b370 with ".PV" end . If u will use another ROM u won't have half of system apps . IF u coming from mm u must use .PV file and the only file with ".PV" end is b370 . Choose proxy install
Proxy installer app should open . Do what is says
It says ( change wi-fi settings , go to update settings in settings , find new update , download 1% of it , go tour wi-fi and delete what u set , download full ROM and he phone should update itself . Then I can use others updates ( others than .pv )
Ta da. U got nougat
Did ihelp u ? Click ?

TWRP only, 100% guaranteed method to success , wipe dalvik & cache, flash update.zip, go back to Install in TWRP menu (without reboot ! ) and flash second file ...hw_eu.zip. Reboot system , enjoy .
(you will see two red errors in TWRP, it's okay)
Use TWRP 3.0.2.0 only !!!

"i know the 1.25gb file is too small and i had to roll back..." - what do you mean by that, you had tried update to Nougat and then downgrade using Rollback package ?
If so, and youf phone stay at NRD90M test-keys, try at first install via dload MM firmware from here
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1164/g104/v66015/f1/full/update.zip
Create a new folder dload in root directory of SD card (root directory : it means dont put it in any folder .) Now unpack the rollback package and copy its contents “UPDATE.APP” to the “dload” folder. Use the 3 button combo installation.
Ensure that the installation will succeed.
You must unlock the bootloader again, install TWRP etc.
It must work.

Excuse me, but You have done something wrong or you was not on MM. Now try flash your MM (see my previous post) and try again, step by step.
