My SD upgrade (dload) always says that the software is an incompatible version, although I'm on b130 after downgrading from nougat. Im using an l31 - my model number says hi6250. Regardless of the package I download I always get the same error! I have tried b150-151 and 161 now. Someone help me out here? Thanks in advance

Same problem here after going from B130 to B150 region c185 and didn't change it. I tried every build out there they all say incompatible! I just gave up

I think you have to flash the correct oeminfo before flashing the ROM

I'm not rooted nor have I ever been in this phone. Or can I do that without being rooted? And thanks for the reply

Upgrading to EMUI 4.0 via HiSuite ROM Installing option

Hello XDA!
My current build number is C636B170 and i want to install C432B550 Marshmallow update. I tried the "Local Update" option but it fails everytime.
The ROM Flashing option in HiSuite, can i install the update with that option? I would be happy if someone gave me an answer for my problem.
Thanks
You can't, either you wait for an official update for your Custc or you change your Custc (c636) to (c432) by
First: unlocking your bootloader
Second: download (c432b052) firmware and flash it.
Then download the b170 and local update it then you can download and update to b550
All the tutorial can be found in xda by little search

Ok. Thanks. I will try that out.
Unlocking bootloader means only my warranty is void, yes?
And after is there anything else i should know before doing so?

You have been a good help for me till now. Can you please help me with this too?
I flashed a ROM which is based to C432B052 but it kinda made my sim unusable for that ROM. And i was unable to local update either.
I want to know
1. A site where i can download official firmware for my phone
2. How to properly install it with fastboot (i can do it but i feel like i am missing something very important)
Thanks

you may lose your imei after flashing b052 but you will be able to restore it after updating to b170
btw your phone is dual sim or single sim ? from the build number you gave before it should be a dual sim, if it is then continue.
after flashing b052 download b170 and extract it then take the update.app and make a folder in the root of your device named (dload) and put it there. you should find the update in the local update.

Upgrade Huawei P8 Lite to Marshmallow (ALE-L21)

(I'm new to this) So, I bought a P8Lite, and I have no problems with it, but it comes with Android 5.1. I'm in Greece and everywhere in this forum and elsewhere people seem to have at least Android 6, EMUI 4.x and hoping for Nougat.
I have not gotten any Marshmallow update, and on Huawei's official firmware site, checking for the ALE-L21, the closest thing to Marshmallow is a rollback package to Android 5.
What should I do?
Thanks
what is your build number? Since you're on Greece, you must have ALE-L21c432bxxx. If the value of xxx equals to 170 or 188 then you are eligible to get Marshmallow update. If, by any chance you're not getting it and you're already above b170 then i request you to follow this link

Yeah
It's been a while, but yeah, I downloaded b170 from the site and tried local update with its update.app. I get "Software install failed". What should I do? Should I try flashing b560 or something? The mega thread says I should have b170 and above (204 > 170)
(Late) UPDATE for anyone that might stumble upon this: Just local update with B560 and OTA to the latest

you can't install MM from a certain LP builds.
for example B186 doesen't get MM
I'll make it easier for u.
unlock your bootloader, download the MM latest firmware (update.app)
extract the system.img, boot.img, cust.img, and recovery.img.
flash it via fastboot (i.e "fastboot flash system system.img e.t.c)
and DONE! your p8 lite has MM

Yes you would since flashing it would remove your root. If you are rooted you aren't getting OTA updates anyway.

Sorry I misread your post, for some reason I saw you are rooted. Just use the dload method and everything will be fine I've used the dload method every update and still getting OTA updates and stuff, that's all okay.

Sorry if I do not understand what you are asking. But I understand you have ota b370 and you have now written nrd90m and you are missing some applications.
So now I hate that Dload the file update.app of the second file should go.
It does 128.MO and in it i see cust.img (120.54MB).
I have rc4 with root browser, I see cust, HW, eu, app, there is everything you miss.
So I was thinking that maybe you should be dload update.app from second file hwdatafull. that's all.
hwdatafull c432b370 with bootloader lock.

Hi, i just get the update today and it was 1,99GB big. I think you have to leave enough space, 4,5GB minimum for the upgrade. It seems there are two Update Packages. Maybe if there is not enough space, the updater just take only one package.

stock recovery

hello,
can someone provide me with the stock recovery from my Huawei P10 Plus?
I'm running F/W version VKY-L09C432B123 (if that matters).

You can go to hwmt.ru and search up your model and version for the correct update package, then use the huawei package extractor to get the recovery img.

I try to get the official stock recovery, because I want the official updates. I have TWRP installed now. But I need the right stock recovery. I was looking for one for my software version, but I can't find it. I only see B120 and B125 but I'm running B123. If you know where to find it, please link it. If it's safe to install the recovery from one of the versions B125 or B120 while I'm running B123, just say it. If not, what are the differences between B120, B123 and B125?
Thanks in advance,
Leon
