How to install nougat on Vns-L21c185b150? - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Hello,
I tried to install it via Huawei Firmware Finder (b360 from b150) but it ended up on nrdm-test key and missing lots of apps. Should I try to do it first with b331 and then b360 or?
Edit: b331 via Firmware Finder doesn't work as well, NDRM-Test keys and missing apps again.
Please someone write how to update to b360 or b331
Edit 2: Is there datafull for b331 or b360 so i can flash it via TWRP?

bump

you better wait, im with your version too, wait for ota, for our reghion there is still no stable official update

Install firmware finder and adjust setting to view last firmware
If it can't find nougat update , you can unlock bootloader and update via twrp method

I found the b563 fw but when i tried to update it it stopped at 1 % and the phone rebooted. What can cause the problem ?
Keep checking! Older firmwares have some small optimization to be done. So these guys r releasing slowly

On the firmware finder app, disable OTA, and you'll see that the ones that say FULL/OTA will disappear,
and the only FULL that shows up are the older (EMUI 4x) ones. At least that's what happens on
mine. L29C185B321
I just manage to update to b563 by first flash b211 using the dload method, and then i could update to b563 with firmware finder . Thanks for the help everybody !

Tried to do that 10 times still the same size
Hi,
Same issue for me. It's only 1.25GB update when I perform update request.
Already done the rollback to go back to MM with the B160 version. But when ask again for a new update request using HiCare, it's always the same update of 1.25GB and not the 1.99GB one.
My device is L31 too and no root or other thinks.
I have downloaded last last HiCare app but same issue, I really do not understand why an original stock device do not get the appropriat update...
Perform reset 3 or 4 times but always the same issue...
****ing "NRD90M test keys" version...
Other people are in the same case ? Any official help or tips for Huawei Service ?
Thanks
according to me i should try with back to mm> twrp and root> flash N
You need to be on B160 then go to HiCare app ( the one from playstore ) then update from there.

I have already perform rollback to B160 and try to update after with the new app HiCare in PlayStore but same issue...
I had the same issue. This worked for me: Rollback to B160 via Rollback Image provided by Huawei. Then updated to B161 & then updated to B371, both steps via Firmware Finder and Firmware Finder Proxy. Now all seems to be working fine, no more 'NRD90M test keys' nonsense and missing stuff. Bluetooth is working fine which is my main requirement as this device is used for app testing, involving a lot of Bluetooth.

The C900 version

Hi, recently I tried to upgrade my P9 lite to Nougat using Firmware Finder app. I downloaded and installed the B361 version but it was all buggy so I decided to do a rollback to MM. After doing the rollback I got a C900B160 version.
Is this C900 version a problem? Should I change it to C423?
Also, why was the B361 Nougat so buggy? Did I do something wrong?

if you flashed rollback package its ok to get that. just put marshmallow CxxxB161 ( Cxxx- means your number C432 C02 etc.. ) then with 3 buttons method flash marshmallow and you are good to go.

I already flashed the MM and it is still a C900 version, I downloaded it from official emui website as I remember.

You need to flash oeminfo and custom.bin from fastboot .( Your bootloade needs to be unlocked. ) You can check huawei tool thread . There you will find what you need)

want to update from NRD90M testkeys (L31)

Title says it all 1. Is there an update to NRD90M and 2 if so where can I find the update (nougat.) Also does the UK fit beta app still install for you guys ok? I keep getting 'this package conflicts with an existing package with the same name' I don't have it installed (used to) and I cannot find a solution anywhere on the net.
First downgrade back to MM with the official Rollback package and MM firmware from the Huawei support website.
After that, use Firmware Finder to upgrade to the Full OTA Nougat firmware B371 and next to B381.

Where exactly on their support site do I find the firmware? Because every link posted redirects me to a generic support page or a "not found" and I can't find anywhere to download the file for my phone and region. Thank you in advance.

[Firmware] Which firmware should i use to update to emui 5.xx with VNS-L31 C432 B226?

My phone had to be repaired last week, and the Huawei repair service changed everything in the phone except for the backplate.
However, I am now stuck with emui 4.1.2 in firmware VNS-L31 C432 B226, and i can't find a replacement firmware for the system.
The phone shows no update available in stock.
I have TWRP and magisk installed atm, just so i could try and get a different firmware with emui 5.1 or 5.0 at least, which I did to no avail.
Is there any way to find the correct firmware compatible with this phone?
Googling this firmware gives me no clues as to the correct path to updating this phone.
Should i use an adb/fastboot command prompt to update it, or use the dload method, or even the extract the SYSTEM.img from UPDATE.app method?
I just don't want to revert to an "earlier" version of the firmware with the dload method just to have my phone bricked.
These are the firmware i tried already:
[TO BE UPDATED]
TL/DR:
I have a Huawei P9 Lite repaired to a stock:
Firmware: VNS-L31 C432 B226
EMUI: 4.1.2
in Portugal.
I want to know a compatible firmware or series of firmware patches so i can get
Firmware: VNS-L31 C432 Bxxx
EMUI: 5.xx
Thank you for your time.
Hello,
it's strange that with an unbranded european firmware your phone didn't upgraded to android 7....
Anyhow i never done a forced upgrade but if i were you i wil try with HWOTA update, like explained in this thread.
So first make all your necessary backups, then unroot and finally follow the guide to upgrade.
P.S.: If your phone is dual sim try install B370, if single sim try with B371.
All the best

I tried a bunch of firmwares for emui 5.1 that didn't work, or which had NFC and bluetooth not working. I ended up downgrading to B160, and am now reupgrading to B370 after checking that both of the previously mentioned are working properly. I will update on this issue asap.
Also, it seems like the firmware I originally had was updated in march 2018, so it was really an updated official firmware with emui 4.1. What a weird setup. Could it be to make sure the NFC and bluetooth would be working? I just don't know...

I did it and it worked, however i flashed the recovery partition of version VNS-L31C432B380 with TWRP and now can't do a OTA update to B388.
Should I extract the recovery img from a b380 FULLOTA update and flash it to my recovery partition with fastboot?

Hey,
surely without stock recovery OTA updates won't work,
so yes try flash it with fastboot, then update to the latest/wanted firmware and finally unlock bootloader,
flash custom recovery and root (even if wanted).
Best regards
