Changing firmware on P9 lite? - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Any idea how I would do this? Rather than coming with regular stock European firmware mine has carrier specific EE U.K. Firmware which they never update.

I used the firmware finder app to get the b160 version VNS-L31C440B160. OTA didn't work for me but the full install went on fine.

Mate 8 L09 Fails Update

Hi guys,
Hoping you guys can help. I've just gotten my Mate 8 (NXT-L09) in South Africa and i would like to load the International De-branded Firmware.
My current firmware is NXT-L09C316B140. I've downloaded a couple of different firmware versions B133 and B321. The both get to 5% updating and then fail due to incorrect version.
Can anyone help with this? Or provide me with a link to B152 Or B170 for the L09.
Hello,

Galaxy s7 edge stock firmware from sammobile - a few questions.

Hi,
I bought my S7 edge form Portugal, the phone is factory unlocked.
Now I'm back in my country and I thought I should download from sammobile the official firmware of my carrier provider or the global version.
I'm not sure if I'll still receive OTA updates if I flash the firmware with ODIN, and if that's the case, please tell me if there's any other methods to flash the baseband without causing updates issues in the future.
I want to update the fw because Volte doesn't work.
Another question, I don't have a PC, so I was wandering if I can install Odin on Mac or in VmWare?

Which previous 6.0.1 firmware needed to receive OTA nougat (G935FXXU1DPLT)on S7 edge?

Hi everyone.
I want to receive nougat G935FXXU1DPLT (UK BTU) through OTA, while using marshmallow.
To do that, which previous firmware should be installed, so that when i click software update, it find G935FXXU1DPLT nougat firmware and ask me to update ?
I guess you have to have the UK BTU Firmware.
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935F/BTU/
Yes but which one ?
I tried this with UAE XSG 6.0.1. There is also Nougat already in UAE XSG but when i installed 6.0.1 , after completion setup, i checked "software update".
It said "you already have latest updates". So, same can be happen with UK BTU. That's why i need to find that firmware which detects nougat update in OTA automatically.
Why do you want to OTA update from MM to Nougat?
Just flash the Nougat BTU Odin files.
You probably didn't get the update because your CSC didn't change. What is your CSC?
Nougat BTU CSC is actually OXA which is a multi-CSC. If you have ANY of the existing CSC that are in OXA your CSC will not change
When i just flash Nougat, S-health is not working due to tripping know before (root). That is why i want OTA update from MM to Nougat (I decided to use without root for a time).
Yes Nougat BTU CSC is OXA but, when you select UK list in sammobile, there is no other OXA CSC with MM. Only single Nougat is OXA, the rest are MM and non of them contains CSC OXA.
So, my question continues :/
No solution ?
Which MM firmware you can suggest me to download guys, so that after installation, it can detect Nougat (OTA) ?
I flashed bplb last night with Odin and it now as option to download and update to 7.0 but eff that, I had horrible battery life on 7.0
Hmm, well it is something to try, at least. I will download BPLB and see how it goes.
If it goes to Nougat with OTA, i will observe and notify you about battery life also. Thanks
Download 7.0 Nougat [UK] firmware and flash it. Im using UK version and for now no problems
Battey life is better then 6.0.1 but u need disable few packages with PDP
Hi,
I installed the one on this site and upon first set up, received 2 OTA updates, one of them being Nougat. You might want to give it a try.
this is the one i used and recieved ota nougat G935FXXU1BPLB_G935FBTU1BPK3_BTU
Yes i finally find thanks to you (G935FXXU1BPLB_G935FBTU1BPK3_BTU). I updated to Nougat with OTA.
But, now i am on G935FXXU1DPLT_G935FOXA1DPLT and when i install apps or games in play store, some of them are not appear on my phone.
When i search back in play store, i see that they are already installed and i can open them.
Why i can't see them :/ ? (i am without root)
What do you mean by PDP ?
That's definitely not normal, I would do a factory reset, good luck

Latest Nougat Firmware - Manual Install (Odin)

Hello folks,
I would like to update my S7 Edge (SM-G935F) to the latest Nougat firmware which if I'm not mistaken arrived UK BTU, which is:
PDA - G935FXXU1DQB3
CSC - G935FOXA1DQB1
I would like to install it via Odin, the most stock way possible (don't want root or custom recovery), just because that I'm tired that it haven't arrived OTA in my country (PT).
But I have a few questions regarding this manually update to the latest firmware of another country:
1) Manually installing the latest update from BTU UK will stop me from receiving future OTA updates? and if no, will I be receiving the OTA updates in the future from UK or PT??
2) My device with the currently firmware has no bloatware from any network (was bought unlocked), if I upgrade to the latest firmware from BTU UK, will I still have no bloatware? (or bloat will be installed?)
3) Will I have any problem from installing a firmware from other country (being both for the same model: SM-G935F)?
Thank you very much in advance! :good:
I have everything ready to make the manual flash, just want to clear this things out before I do it.
Thanks

Each country or region has it's own CSC which can be easily flashed
by itself without the need to odin flash a different country's full firmware.
The only time you need to think about bloatware is if you flash a specific
carrier's firmware like perhaps vodaphone and most other carriers add
their own bloatwares. But if you only flash the regional firmware for your
country or region like BTU UK you will not end up with bloatware.
Good luck and happy flashing!

Future OTA's will not be a problem if you have flashed
the proper CSC for your country before trying to update
future firmwares.

So you are saying that first I should change my CSC to the UK, then flash the latest firmware via Odin and won't have to worry about future updates? Can't I simply flash the latest UK BTU firmware and it will change the CSC and get me the latest firmware in once?

How to get Oreo update in Germany on SM-G935F unlocked from Romania

Hello!
I am from Romania and I own an unlocked SM-G935F. I am currently in Germany for a week, where the Oreo update has oficially been released. Is there any way for me to get it because I am here? Simply going to manual software update does not do the trick.
Doesn't matter that you are in a country where Oreo has been released. Is about your csc code of phone when comes to OTA update. You can flash Oreo via Odin if you want to have it before will be released as ota update
