Install either via OTA update if you're already on the 1.87 RU ROM like I am. On my device it first wanted to install the update only, about 67MB, but it failed to install; then the next time I checked for updates after reboot through the settings update menu, it downloaded the full file, about 0,99 GB. Then the update went all the way through. SuperSU is lost on the way, I will try if it still works through the recovery installation.
You can also install through Yotaflasher like it's explained here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3247356
Didn't have time to test things out, but it's still Lollipop 5.0, so only bugfixes and some new yotapanel features I guess.
Enjoy!
Thanks for that muchly dude, hadn't checked that for a while.
Update seems to be stability improvements, power efficiency improvements and some yotamirror and panel improvements and features.
Its not 5.1, but it's an update, I'll take it.
And yeah, super glad moved to the RU ROM. Backing up now, will OTA flash update once that's done. SuperSU has been flashable everytime after an update so far so fingers crossed.
All up and running .
I was rooted, running RU 1.87 with TWRP - phone handled it all just fine - downloaded OTA, pressed install - it went to TWRP > flashed stock recovery back over itself > rebooted and installed.
Phone booted up, all working fine. Lost root - simple reboot and flash the SU.zip had sitting there from the last update. Cache and Dalvik wiped for good measure.
Reboot and all is well and back to normal but with a few improvements, lovely.
About as easy as it's even been done really.
Hope everyone else gets to enjoy the update through similarly smooth procedures .
Yeah, I ended up doing a fresh installation plus rooting, everything smooth. I'm never too sure what an update leaves behind.
It's really a great device, hopefully they'll keep updating things for a while. Of course version 6.0 would be welcomed... Apparently, by the numbering they use, next step would be either 1.2.xx with Android 5.1 or 2.x.xx with 6.0. Let's see.
Fair play, I toyed with idea of it, but was fresh from last install and honestly don't have the time to set everything up again.
My hope is they take all their good ideas from this and can at least join someone else in making a great device.
Saw a working bendy phone the other day, lets you turn pages on reading app by bending corner as you would a book etc. I thought if that could be combined with yota tech, then you have damn near the perfect tablet.
Honestly I don't think we'll get 5.1, let alone 6.0. They're refining their ideas in prep for Yotaphone 3, that and the possible tablet are their main focus right now.
Interestingly, the update flashed it's stock recovery over twrp - someone prepared for the possibility of root owners this time around. So they are still paying attention .
So any idea what's the difference between the EU and the RU rom? I mean there has to be some reason they are two separate roms.
To answer my own question: there isn't too many differences between EU and RU roms. I did a diff between the RU1.1.59 and EU1.1.60, and out of 2092 files, roughly 1900 of the files inside system.img were identical. The APKs were slightly different, but only slightly. So probably the difference comes from some differently named resources.
The RU version also has some additional apps which the EU version does not have, such as Esquire, Questions, Strelka and Vector. These are probably the main reason why they have different ROMs. They might only work in Russia.

FYI the difference is essentially the product package configuration (app bundles that are pre-loaded) but there are also some differences between the resources used for the stock apps. One in particular (my personal fav ) is the dialler - the RU variant includes cyrillic characters regardless of language/locale setting (feature). The EU will give you a regular english-only dialler if you're using english locale settings

i'm using this post as a minimalistic guide for myself (so i keep it up with my "discoveries" )
and ofc for been helped by everyone who wants to help me because i am completely new to android world cause this is my first android phone ever!
so.. let's get started!
i downloaded [TOOL] [WINDOWS] ADB, Fastboot and Drivers - 15 seconds ADB Installer v1.4.3
version 1.4.3 doesnt works for me so i downloaded the 1.3 as suggested and worked.
then i enabled the download mode following the procedure:
Turn off the phone, then press and hold the volume down key + the power key at the same time. This should boot you into download mode.

*is installing TWRP a mandatory step?
EDIT: the answer is NO. it seems that the mandatory part is to unlock the bootloader (the bad part for the warranty.. and that can erase ur data..) and this can be done following this guide How to Install TWRP Recovery on YotaPhone 2 untill point 6 included - which i am reporting here for easy of use.

How to Flash TWRP Recovery on YotaPhone 2
1 - Setup ADB and Fastboot on your Windows PC.
2 - Enable USB debugging from developer options on your YotaPhone 2.
3 - Connect it to PC with a USB cable, if it asks for debugging authorization, permit it.
4 - Go to the folder where you downloaded the TWRP recovery image from the download link above on your PC and open a command window inside that folder by doing “Shift + Right click” on any empty white space inside the folder, then select “Open command window here”.
5 - (Skip this if your bootloader is already unlocked) Now to unlock the bootloader, type in the following command:
└ Beware that unlocking the bootloader may wipe your phone’s data. Make sure to backup first before proceeding.
adb reboot bootloader

Click to collapse
└ This will reboot your phone to bootloader mode

└ This will unlock bootloader on your device.
6 - Now if your phone has rebooted and is no longer in the bootloader mode, then boot it back into bootloader mode with the “adb reboot bootloader” command.

i already downloaded yotaflasher and the last RU firmware 5.0.0-RU1.1.99.zip
NOTE: Russian firmware seems to contain English language. i dont know how to change it later to the favorite one.
NOTE: you need to move the firmware files to the same location as the Flasher tool. Default one is C:\Program Files (x86)\yotaphone_flasher

I downloaded all russian versions and also the 1.6 EU version... but no way I always get this error.

Does anyone know how to solve? :crying:

The info is described in various posts across the yotaphone forum. Are you rooted? If not then there also many many guides across the internet for that.
Not walking you through the whole process, sorry. We all had to learn, once you do it's all much easier.
It happens also to me...don't panic! press Volume up and the power button and when you enter in the bootloader select the downloading options, it will restart the phone with the "downloading" status
in the meanwhile with the yotaflasher select the option to downloads a firmware and try a different one. When the download is finished try to flash once again.

I placed like you the rom downloaded through website in the firmware folder and flash got wrong. I was blocked on "powered by android" logo like you.
After this almost-bricking experience, I flashed 4.4.3 downloaded all through Flasher and phone was working again.
Then I tried to substitute 5.0 system.img in the folder downloaded through Flasher but no way... after flashing phone didn't boot.
I reflashed 4.4.3 back again and now is working.
I think that we can't put files in folder for Yota Flasher...
I cannot download last 5.0 EU version, like described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/yot...ially-dead-t3312382/post65839167#post65839167

after my big mistake i have done this:
*i downloaded the last 4.4.3-S01-003-EU1.0.3.61a.zip then i flashed it. reminding to unzip it and put it in the right folder of the flasher. remind that this will delete ur data too prob.
*i checked for update on the phone in setting--> about phone --> sistem update
*it downloaded lollipop (android 5.0 Lollipop - 1Gb to download) :laugh:
*i took the 5.0.0-RU1.1.99.zip and flashed it
*u can choose english when the phone boot so dont worry about firmware to be RU
*i checked the firmware version doing the combo "Volume up and the power button" (press it while restarting)
*i changed the language of the phone in setting --> language (there is plenty of languages to choose. i choose mine, italian, but sometimes it happens to find something in english )
i downladed some app etc etc but i never used it for calls cause of the requested nano sim that i'm going to take tomorrow probably cause today i get stucked with trouble about my contacts.

I haven't updated this morning because I was downloading a previous 5.0, the EU 1.44, but when flashing I had error "cannot load firmware/system.img". So I reflashed 4.4.3... I'll try again this evening

Hello! I have 5.0!
After flashing and old version of 4.4.3 (my phone went with a 4.4.something branded Vodafone Italy, and they evidently don't give a fork about updates). With the 4.4.3 rev 1.0.51a I immediately received he update to 1.0.56a: I downloaded the 114MB, rebooted, and then got the update to 1.0.61a, around 63MB. I rebooted and then got finally the update to 5.0, 1GB :laugh:
I have only one problem now: the device doesn't recognize when I'm looking at the ink screen, and power button powers on the amoled... Even unlocking through swiping from bottom to top doesn't work. Option is correctly set, I tried to uncheck, reboot, wipe cache and check the option again but it not working well yet.

seems that is the same for a lot of people if not everyone..
cause of this problem i am using this app gravity screen on/off.
it halves the problem cause now i have no problem for the amoled. and for problem i mean use the pwer button instead of simply swipe.
for the e-ink panel i still have to use the power button, only way it works.
for those who face problem like my x820 that didn't show upgrade, update on their phone, just download the latest firmware eui5.8 ,then enter the file manager and rename to update.zip.
as u click the update.zip there is an option for update. enjoy.... its kindda weird that the original firmware not include update on Chinese version though.. i recommend update eui5.8 india. u wont face a Chinese apps language problem later...
i cant

I have X820 Chinese ROM since the day I purchased my phone and haven't touched the ROM since. If I update to the newest India ROM, will I lose all apps and data? Or will it just flash like an update and not affect data and apps?
You can make updating manually over stock recovery or custom recovery. It is very easy work.
But will I lose my apps and data or not?

I don't have tons of experience on this device yet...
but when I installed 16S onto 15S and was ready to loose the work I had already done (installed quite a few apps, not yet tons of data or settings), I didn't lose any app nor data (including Google setup and WLAN hotspots). However the 16S variant couldn't handle German, so most things came out in an odd mixture of English and Chinese.
I changed the language to English and had the Chinese parts translate to English as well, which I considered helpful.
16S is loaded with LeTV specific stuff which is all about pushing chinese LeTV content and which turned out difficult to disable, mostly because I couldn't tell which parts were important (can't read Chinese), so I quickly decided I needed to go back to the original "international" version, which still mixes some English into other European languages.
I didn't actually have a 15S ROM image, so I can't tell if a downgrade works as seamlessly, instead I restored my TWRP recovery.
That deactivated my WLAN, which gave me a couple of horrible moments, but a second restore (perhaps including EFF) got it back and I hesitate to repeat the procedure for a more detailled analysis of what happened to the WLAN.
Good Job..!
Thanks for the Advise :good:

Hello,
Did you tried it ? 'Cause except for the security patch, i dont' think this update worth it, am i right ?
I think people who were in that version didn't got any update to B37x.
To my (limited) knowledge B180>B370 excluding betas.
in my case failed at 9% and I do not want to reset phone... staying at b180

Really soo weird, I installed it at once without facing any problem.
It doesn't need a clean B180 rom because I installed it over my usual rom. It wasn't clean.
Something must be wrong in somewhere... but where?
Back here again..
No good news, tried to instal via sd, same issue, fail at 6%
But, but, but there might be a reason, i flashed the sdk21 of xposed, and idk how to remove it.. maybe this is the cause of it....
When you installed, you had to : unroot & put the recovery back ? Or you where "clean"
I'll try tomorrow, with a rest head

Oh, when I was saying "not clean" I meant installed apps and my all data

Hi,
Hmmm so maybe the xposed package.rar i've flashed made this error
Well, i'll try when i receive the H8
Or maybe i had to put the recovery of B100 instead of B180 :/
Edit 1 : When i check the local.prop, there is "ro.dual.sim.phone=false" or the PLK-L01 is a dual sim, so i don't understand ^^
Edit 2 : Flash with TWRP =
MD5's missing
coming from B180 stock /rooted /xposed.....
1.) i flashed all possible partitions i had extracted (HuaweiExtractor) from B180. (system; cust; boot; recovery)
2.) reboot
3.) i flashed full rom B180 from folder dload (vol up&down&power) to be sure to get really all parts of firmware!
4.) reboot
5.) local update b190.zip from folder dload
6.) reboot
7.) i flashed twrp rc3 with fastboot to recovery partition
8.) had rooted and installed xposed now
all works as expected! Now i am on B190.
at least i had to install some modifications to system again and recover my data partition (twrp)
all in all nearly 1 hour hard work!

3.) i flashed full rom B180 from folder dload (vol up&down&power) to be sure to get really all parts of firmware!
4.) reboot
5.) local update b190.zip from folder dload
6.) reboot
7.) i flashed twrp rc3 with fastboot to recovery partition
8.) had rooted and installed xposed now
all works as expected! Now i am on B190.
at least i had to install some modifications to system again and recover my data partition (twrp)
all in all nearly 1 hour hard work!

Hi,
In fact you just cleaned up your B180 in order to instal the 190 ?
The "real" B180
Pure stock if i could say ? Sure, it will work, but i tried to install it without getting back to stock^^
uff 1 hour to achieve upgrade... pity that I have to do factory reset to make upgrade to b190, no root no open bootloader no changes to firmware despite all this I cannot upgrade normal way... very sad, bad job honor(huawei)
because i had made a backup of my apps and data with the HUAWEI backup app (update to version from PlayStore is necessary!) recovery was easy! Had to remove some blood ware and unused apps only!
then reinstalled PMplus; managed autostart and apps they should stay on if screen is off.
reinstalled my google account
all in all a little bit more than 1 hour like i told you
now i am on b190 rooted; xposed and xprivacy activ on; and of curse Viper4Android for better sound.
real easy!

How did you update it? if you were rooted then you have to flash img files manually first before doing a three button update.

Yes, as B371 is the latest one so they will push B371 only, now there are no incrementals. But I have put up a thread here, maybe sometime later I'll post the OTAs too.

Anyone can upload a Rom here? because the Flyme sites, it's so slowly..
The ROM is working just fine on Oreo firmware. Haven't faced any issues yet, so I guess you don't have to downgrade
I got this ROM 1st boot but when I passed 6 pages welcome screen.
There is a blank black screen I can only long press Shutdown/Restart.
:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Can someone provide a alternative link to One plus phone 5T Toolbox _2.0.0.exe i am unable to create an account on that website to download the file.

Yeah that means you have Oreo beta. You have to use the link on the top of the first post to downgrade to 7.1.1

You don't really need the tool box; it is only for rooting and getting a working recovery. You can Google how to root OnePlus 5T.

Just finish installed Flyme
Flyme 6.8.3.19R beta
2018-03-20
Works well.:fingers-crossed:
I can confirm.... I installed it yesterday and everything went fine...
I was on FrankenRom but I would try something different so I wiped everything, formatted data and flash the rom and that's it.
My firmware was OXYGEN BETA 4 BUT It worked fine...
Anyway, because there was a lot of Chinese writings I went back to FrankenRom
Can anyone post the screenshots?

Hello, I think I have an issue with my phone. Now I'm not a big champ on electronics, I'm pretty sure there have been updates above android 6.01. How come I can't download them? When I go to the update MIU thing, its tells me I'm not connected to the internet (currently surely connected to a stable Wi-Fi connection) and that it can't find anything on my SD card. Is there a way of updating I don't know about? I hope you guys can help, and thanks in advance!

MIU? You sure you're not on a Xiaomi? :laugh:
Which is your phone model? The one on the back of the phone. It should say "A2017U", "A2017G" or "A2017".
You need to download the update zip (If you have an U or chinese you'll have a problem, since ZTE took the update pages down) and put it in the internal storage, then go to the update screen and update. If you have a G, just download them from Raystef66's Download Center. You need to download the Factory images, NOT the TWRP flashables.
If you have an U or chinese, you'll have to get the zip from somewhere else probably.

Okay so I see a lot of download links there but can't figure out which one I need, do you have any idea? I feel kinda stupid now haha
Hey. You need Marshmallow B10 (last 6.0 update before 7.0) afterwards the first version of 7.1 (Sorry I don't know exactly the version number) and last the 7.1.1 B10 (The very last update for 7.1.1 before Oreo). I have them all for the A2017G that i downloaded from the German ZTE website before it got shut down. I can upload them for you, all you have to do is put them on an sd card, go to the default phone updater and the updates will show there. From there on just press update(install) on each one at a time and after the last one you're done. No need for sketchy flashing through recovery. It's all done through the phone updater. I'll comment later once I have the files uploaded.
Can you tell us which stock ROM version it's currently running?
Settings/About Phone
Build number, right at the bottom.

I'll make it simpler.
First of all check the version number on Settings - About. If it is "A2017GV1.0.0B10" or maybe B11 then you're good to go, just go to the Download Center, find the "Factory Images" section (NOT THE TWRP FLASHABLE SECTION) and download the one called N-B10 (No need to download the other two zips, just the one that says B10). Then put that package on the internal storage directly, and go to Settings - Update, and update
If you are on any version below V1.0.0B10, you'll have to download the latest Marshmallow update first, and install it like i said earlier. Then download the Nougat zip and do the same
