I believe you have to go back to the stock recovery, unroot, and THEN update to MM... but I'm not sure how.

Sorry
I can't find it but before that you need to update to B200 and then to Marshmallow
You can install B200 via fastboot also

Good to know.
One more question. If I go back to stock recovery and unroot, I should be able to fine the OTA update via the EMUI's updater? (whatever version it is)

After restoring the stock recovery reinstall your current OS and then you should be able to update via the updater app or by the dload method

What is your full build version - GRA-xxxCxxxB190?
--------------------
Btw, another way to update in your situation without losing root, is by using an all-in-one tool like FlashFire:

Thanks, will give it a look.
EDIT: My OTA update doesn't even show up, so I'm not sure if FlashFire can help me.
The full build is GRA-L09C469B190

Ok, before going any further, I strongly recommend making a nandroid backup using TWRP & also transferring a copy of the backup to another device, like a PC/laptop if possible...

If you have the Huawei HiCare installed, does it offer any updates when you check via it? If not, install it & check in both these places in the app:
HiCare app > Me tab > Check for updates
HiCare app > Service tab > OS Upgrade Early Adopters

You should only apply updates with the same Cxxx as yours.I thought that you have C432 from the other guy's post so I'm sorry.
And I've found B210 with C469 so you can update to this first with extracting the recovery from it with Huawei Update Extractor and flashing via fastboot and then updating via dload but i don't know if there's EMUI 4.0 for C469.

Hi,
What happens if you update with the wrong Cxxx?
I just got a used p8 that's got GRA-L09C02B191 on it. I'd like to update it to Android6 before starting to screw around with custom ROMs. I've got FirmwareFinder running, and it's already found 200+ options, none of which appears to be C02, despite that being my range setting. Is my model unupdateable?
TIA!

You will get C900 and won't be able to get OTA updates, themes may not work and Android pay.

Thanks for the lightning fast reply!
That's not so bad, I don't care about themes, don't use Android Pay, and doing the updates manually isn't a huge pain. Is there anything else that I lose? Presumably I'll be able to roll back to gra-l09c02b191 to restore full functionality?
So can I then just go directly for the latest firmware, which I guess is B370?
Thanks!

I can't update to android 6.0

I have just bought a Huawei P8 Lite Dual Sim (Build number: ALE-L21C432B210) and I've been trying to update it to Android 6 using the files provided on huawei's site. The problem is that every time I try I get an error screen that says Software Install Failed and it gives me a link to huawei's site (This link in particular: emui.com/emotiondownload.php?mod=restore [sorry I cant post any links yet]) I'm getting kinda desperate since I don't know if it's my build number or what (searching for it gave no results) and every guide I've found doesn't mention my B210 device. I am stuck on Huawei's terrible skin of 5.0.1 (EMUI 3.1). Please someone help me.

Let's take this from the start: I was on B204 (Lollipop). I was instructed to go to B170 and then update to B560.
Trying to go to B170 got me a "Software install failed" message, presumably because I had a greater version. So I downloaded the file for B560, crossed my fingers and did local update through settings. It worked. I was finally on Marshmallow. After that, the phone did an OTA to B574.
I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong, but I'm fairly confident what I did should work here. Good luck

Yes i have. So after downloading may different firmwares, i understand that solution and its work.
You get error "Software install failed" because huawei say to you that they dont have an update that supports my build precisely ALE-L21C432B210.
When you wipe all through twrp and put desirous firmware in your sd card and go to installation screen through combination of key vol up and down with power key, you can install whatever version you want,
because are you working clean install through huawei update screen, not an update.
I hope I have explained a little.
I made a mistake that I installed version for single sim and not for dual sim. But it when I get some time, but regardless of that, everything works just fine, and with mm 6 a got about 4:30-5h OST

[Guide downgrade from Nougat Beta]

As we all know Huawei released the nougat beta for honor 8 (for UK and India for now) and let's be honest. It's beautiful right? But not all features work just yet (yeah I talking about you guys) Bluetooth and NFC. I'm sure Huawei has a good reason why.
So many users both bootloader locked and unlocked may want to downgrade. So here's the procedures.
Bootloader Locked.
1. Download your Marshmallow package (for your region) my is NEE (B120)
2. Extract the zip in a folder called dload if it doesn't exist create it to the EXTERNALSD! Not the internal one!
3. Once done Power down the Phone and power it up while holding both Volume up and Down at the same Time. Now the downgrade Procedure should work*
*IF downgrade Procedure didn't work download another package because you most likely downloaded the wrong package.
4. Reboot into recovery and wipe DATA factory reset else it won't boot!
UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER.
Do the same procedure as locked bootloader to the step 3
4. Reboot into Fastboot and Re unlock your device. NOTE HOLD POWER DOWN AFTER YOU SELECTED YES! So it boot back to bootloader mode (fastboot)
5. Flash twrp recovery
7. Now you can either restore one of your previous backup or wipe your phone without wiping complete internal sd. I prefer restore previous backup so you won't have to setup your device again.
Hope this covers things up for all of you.

It didn't work for me. I tried to downgrade from the B320 version of the beta. I've downlaod the previous L04 mm version i had before getting the beta. I first tried to put the "update" zip in my sd card, it failed, then i extract the update zip on my desktop and put what i extract from the zip in my sd card and tried again. It still failed for the step 3. I would really like to be able to downgrade since the poor battery life from the beta. Any solutions?

The "huawei update extractor" instructions are a bit confusing... I am used to Samsung's Odin method which is super easy to use.
With this can we update our phones without unlocking bootloader or what is the use of this ?

Can you flash the custom ROM on any version of mate 9 or only if you have the Chinese version?

Hi there, since I rooted my phone I can't use OTA and I don't want to pay for FunkyHuawei, can I flash official firmwares with TWRP?

download the offlicial ROM and you get the UPDATE.APP,
put it to sdcard, create a folder /dload/,
full path: sdcard/dload/UPDATE.APP
shutdown your phone
press vol up + vol down + power at the same time
system will flash to official ROM

Getting back to stock EMUI super easily, almost no hassle

Hi everyone, today I will be telling you all how to get back to stock as long as your bootloader states "PHONE Unlocked" and "FRP Unlock"
You will need to install this, this is super duper important! https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
When installing, you will see the error: "E: Unknown command []]"
DO NOT BE AFRAID!
That is supposed to happen lol.
Installation procedure -
1. Flash this TWRP: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18uHjW73Th8iYKIs5m_QgwleMIOjsZd7S/view?usp=sharing
2. Wipe everything except SD card, then choose "Format data" to decrypt device
3. Reboot once again into TWRP (NOTE: If you are using USB OTG cable, make sure to plug it in AFTER TWRP is fully booted and ready to go, if you do it early, you get an error, which is weird lol. EDIT: Not sure if this error is still present in the new twrp, but it's never bad to play it safe.)
4. Flash HuRUpdater, make sure the file names are correct!
5. Reboot into stock recovery
6. Factory reset and wipe cache partition
7. Reboot
This method also enables themes to work again, so no need to worry about that!
Lots of thanks to @zxz0O0 to providing this awesome tool
And more thanks to the OpenKirin community for helping me out when flashing this! :good::good::good:

hello crayonicle, hehe im on the dot os for now, im interested going back to stock. will i get official updates backs from honor if i go back to stock using this method?
do i need to install the HuRUpdater only as the instruction shows? or follow as the link to the other thread shows?

(Used to say you can't update ota... but now you can lol)
EDIT: what the...
I flashed it using the method in the original post, of course, and I got an update notification to update system! So yes, updating works!!!! lol

crayonicle said:
Most likely not, the moment you unlock bootloader, you get no updates from that point forward. Just check using this for latest version: http://pro-teammt.ru/huawei-firmware-finder/

oh so i do need to follow the instructions in the other thread and download the official firmware for the 7x?

Hi !
Does it work to restore on the BND-L21C432B121 ? Because it's marked for 7X but does it works on all firmware versions of this device ?
Thanks !

hi op,
does this work on L24 the usa version?
What update.zip file did you use? can you point to the link?
Also, does this update take the recovery to stock with no TWRP?

Yes, after flashing this via twrp, if you reboot once again to recovery, it is stock recovery, not twrp.

You need to download all 3 files and rename them.

I would assume so. I sent a support ticket to honor regarding the issue (I had the same problem as you) but I went back to custom ROMs so I can't help you here sorry.

Did you try running the update again? I had a similar problem after I unrooted and reinstalled the stock recovery. It failed the first time but when I rebooted and did it again it worked.
