Hi, how can I update/flash an european rom to this Ascend G7 L00 (dual sim version)?
I have a rom for a L01 and tried updating by moving the update file to the phone and then using the update option on the phone. Doesn't work. Is it possible to flash it? How do I do it?
Thanks in advance!
1. Create a new folder and name it 'dload' and put it in the root of your SD card.
2. Put the update file (which should be named 'UPDATE.APP') in the dload folder.
3. Go to settings > update > local update > dload
Or
Turn off phone. Then hold power button and the + and - buttons. When the Huawei boot logo shows up then let go of power button and keep holding the + and - buttons.
Hope I helped.
Hello, sorry for the late response. You can try to unlock bootloader, flash TWRP and then flash update.zip with the L01 firmware from TWRP.

Recently there was an issue with Honor 4x users who updated from KitKat (emui 3.0) --> Lollipop (emui 3.1) version due to some server issues(might be too many downloads at same time because of many many users of Honor4X in India) This is actually due to a corrupted recovery and flashing a new recovery might solve the issue.
To solve the issue HONOR 4X stucked at Honor logo ,i have an easy solution for all those users: Please download and extract the software package from below official path(around 35MB file)
https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0ByJkSOohdNz_Wnd6cVQ3Nlh1am8/edit
Requirements:
1) Make sure that the Micro SD card is available with enough free space(atleast 200MB) and can be read and write. It is recommended that The Micro SD card is made by Sandisk, Kingstone, or Kingmax.
2) Make sure that the power of the battery is enough to run the process. It is recommended that the power of the battery is more than 50%.
Procedure:
Step 1. Format the Micro SD card (This operation is OPTIONAL ).
Step 2. Copy the entire dload folder (with UPDATE.APP in it) contained in the file we downloaded to the root directory of the Micro SD card.
Step 3. Shut down the phone.
Step 4. Press the VOLUME UP + VOLUME DOWN + POWER Key(simultaneously for few seconds) to power on the phone and enter the Software Upgrade Mode begins automatically. This will start the FIX process on your device.
Step 5. When the progress bar stops(100% upgrade successful), the phone will automatically power OFF and restart.

Upgrade needs stock recovery to be installed and I don't think tha TWRP is stock
booted to twrp instead of the stock emergency recovery? try using huawei update extractor and get all the .img files and fastboot flash all the .img files. the method is pretty much the same as fixing my own Che2-L11. once you flashed all the .img files, yes. it will not boot. but, you can access the emergency recovery menu (the menu that allows you to scan and would allow reparing via wifi). IF you can get to this menu, then youre ok good to go for forced upgrade via microsd. just make sure you are using the latest version available your your region. IF it didnt work, you have to fallback by fastboot flash the kitkat version of update.app and force upgrade with that kitkat update.app file. then when its fully booted to language screen, proceed normally as you would a hard reset all phone, then use the usual lolipop, next mellow official update.app file. then, your typical twrp, magisk, and more.

Hi,
I have an unlocked and rooted P8 Lite (ALE-L21) with TWRP 2.8.7.0 (I think that's the version) and I had a google play problem so after trying all solutions that I found it didn't work so i used the advanced wipe function that offers TWRP but accidently i wiped system part so I don't have any OS in my phone and now I have a bootloop. I downloaded a firmware "ALE-L21 V100R001C432B052 Europe channel dual sim" but I didn't know how to flash it because i'm new at huawei phones i was an expert in samsung devices however i don't know how to flash the UPDATE.APP file that I found in the dload folder with TWRP can you help me ? (I can't boot into the bootloader mode i can only boot recovery mode (TWRP) )
Thanks for reading that post ^^
Hello,
You can unbrick your device using this method Unbrick Huawei P8 Lite Ale-L21
Simply boot into bootloader(Plug phone into PC and hold volume down+power button, when phone vibrating release the buttons) when is in bootloader run bat(FLASH-ALL.bat) file in archive
This will install Firmware version C432B052 after that you can update via OTA
Regards
Thanks for replying to this post, I searched a little bit more and I found a software called "HuaweiUpdateExtractor" I extracted 4 files from my UPDATE.APP with that software : system, cust, recovery, boot and then flashed them with fastboot but I can't acces to my bootloader with the 2 volume buttons + power it give me an error so i used TWRP I went to Reboot then Bootloader ^^
Hello everyone.
I rooted my phone (os was marshmallow) with android lollipop procedure, so i soft bricked the phone.
I flashed with fastboot various versions of huawei p8 lite firmware, all of these were 5.0.1.
When I managed to unbrick my phone I found out that it can't read the sim, so I looked in settings and IMEI and BASEBAND were disappeared.
Probably direct downgrade from marshmallow to lollipop caused this.
By the way, I managed to solve all my problems.
I will write what I've done here. I hope will be helpful. To start: my model is ALE-L21 (Single Sim).
- Download B041c (if you search in google you will find various results, all taking to the same site). I'll explain this better after *
- Flash with fastboot B041c
- Download B133 (this is very easy to find, but if you have problems search in a site called carbontesla)
- Unpack B133 dload folder (you will find custom folder too, don't worry about it) and put dload folder in the root of your sdcard
- Go to Settings -> Updater -> Local Update and start B133 update. Phone will boot. The upgrade process should be done with phone chargend and unplugged from PC.
- At some points update could appear stucked (for me was at 15% and 85%) but be hopeful and it will continue (let be patient).
- Phone will boot and your sim after 4-5 seconds will work again!
* B041c is hard to find. At this time only one site have it. I can't link you this site, because the downloader you get from this site installs adware on your pc while it download B041c. I have had to solve my problem so I proceded at my own risk.
Updater will notify you about the update to B183. It doesn't worked to me! If you want to update your phone you can install firmware B171 and install it as update (in dload folder)
UPDATE TO MARSHMALLOW
- If you want to update your phone to marshmallow you have to download other two firmwares (B171 and the MM you want. I used B551)
- Put the dload folder of B171 in your sd card, turn off your phone and force flash (VOLUP + VOLDOWN + POWER buttons). It may appear stucked at 19% and 85%. Don't worry, be patient!
- When phone boot is completed, put dload folder of your MM firmware in your sdcard, turn off the phone and force upgrade (VOLUP + VOLDOWN + POWER buttons). It will take 15-20 minutes.
- When installation is completed and phone boots, turn it off again, enter in recovery mode (VOL UP + POWER button) and clear data and cache.
- Now you have a clean install of MM! However, some applications may be old (play store). If you have connected our phone to a network, play store will update automatically
SOLVE BALONG BUG
You can find easliy the solution in the forum. But to be a complete guide and make your life a lot way easier here is the solution.
Simply put UPDATE.APP of custom folder that you can find in some firmware (I used B049 custom folder) in your sd card and then update from settings or from force update. Is a 20KB file so it will be very fast to install

Flash the C432 oeminfo then reflash B160...
And never flash L21 firmware on L31... If you have L31 flash L31 firmware!.

1.unlock your bootloader
2.install twrp
3.download c432 oeminfo and b160 update.zip
4.copy c433 oeminfo to your sd card/phone and extract update.app from update.zip and put it in dload folder in sd card(you make dload folder)
5.boot to recovery and flash oem info
6.turn off your phone
7.hold power,volume down+volume up buttons till update starts to install and be patient
ok, I wanted to flash the oeminfo and they were 2 options: install into boot or install into recovery. I couldnt install into boot so I installed into recovery. The installation was succesfull. After that I tried to install the update.app but when I press down the three buttons, it starts the Huawei Erecovery. So I tried it with the secret menu to do a local update but after that it starts the Erecovery again.
When I try to flash it into boot (what i think what I suppost to do) it says that the file is too large to flash it into boot partition.

it should work both ways, are you sure you have the correct oeminfo? just try to flash oeminfo in meticulus twrp and then use the 3 buttons to flash update.app in sdcard/dload

Are you sure you are pressing all three buttons? Make sure all buttons are working,because you shouldnt get erecovery by doing that
force shutdown phone , if not work take backpanel out no screws only little gleu and 5-6 normal screws inside, plug off battery and then put inside > hold volume + and - together and press power volume button untill you see the huawei logo.
Ok, I checked my volume buttons they are working. But I press all three buttons and still it starts twrp.

Typically means that this version of firmware is not signed, or registered to work with your phone.
