Is it worth upgrading to Nougat from MM ?

Hello,
I have L21C02B122, branded by Vodafone. I didn't get Nougat so I was thinking of changing to C432. Is Nougat worth it ? How buggy is it ?
How easy is it to change to C432 ? Can you point out a thread...
Thanks

Its still in development, in my opinion it is more valuable to save the varranty. Nougat is faster but wait for official OTA since with third-party ROM providers you dont know if youre going to be able to install new upgrades.
Nougat is so fast!! Interface and browser I love IT!

I came from Vodafone too.
Used this toolkit to debrand:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...pe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873/page67
Later upgraded to Nougat via OTA and everything is working fine. I do not use any root or TWRP modifications.
it is worth it. i don't know if the official ota for c432 is out yet, but if it's not, you could install b370 from one of the guides here. i don't know if that's beta or not. if you want to receive ota updates you could always flash back to stock mm and then install the official ota to nougat

Question on how to upgrade official firmware on Rooted device

Hi,
I have rooted P10 Plus L29. Currently, it is on B133 and I want to update to B162. I did some research on how to update and found several methods (Link ).
I used HWOTA method when I update from B131 to B133 but unfortunately the bootloader is locked again after updated. To unlock bootloader, it will wrap all data from the device.
So, I just curious about the other method whether it will lock bootloader or not. Any suggestions on this?
Imho it is not possible to update without relocking bootloader.

Is it safe to update from Nougat 7.1.1 with bootloader unlocked to oreo without softbricking the device or do I still have to lock the bootloader and then update?

Yes it could be, but make sure to backup your data then you can carry on..it will simply downgrade your bootloader and recovery of your phone and then your phone is able to get updates because recovery is downgraded .. and download firmware from there use patched ost tool and flash it ..

Unlocking Bootloader on P Smart 2018 (FIG-LX1) - EMUI 9.1.0

Hello
I have a P Smart 2018, model FIG-LX1 and want to unlock the bootloader to root it with magisk.
My build number is 9.1.0.203(C432E11R1P5).
Is it possible on this version and if it is, is there anything important I should consider before doing it?
Can I just use DC-Unlocker for unlocking the bootloader and flash TWRP and magisk or isn't it that easy.
I've read about downgrading and I'm not sure if this is a step I have to take.
Thanks in advance
Hello,
You need to downgrade to Oreo (8) with a security patch no later than June 2018.

I know that the topic is kinda dead but,
For that you need to use DLoad method, right? And for the rom you go to androidhost.ru?

I tried both dload and hisuite methods and I always get failed to install
any idea how I can fix that and downgrade successfully?
First I want to say that I´m glad to meet you again, if you are the same XSnaker from the DC-Unlocker forum, I´m User_0101, hello.

So, I have succesfully downgraded my phone with this method:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p-smart/how-to/tutorial-downgrading-to-emui-8-using-t4064605
Read all the instruction Carefully.
For me it worked.
But, if you want to unlock the bootloader, after following this tutorial, you´ll need to downgrade again with a dload folder. Do the same as you did in the tutorial.
I´ll leave the link of the correct one here:
https://androidhost.ru/499
Title:HUAWEI P SMART FIG-LX1 FIG-L31 FIGO-L31 8.0.0.124(C530) FIRMWARE 8.0.0 R1 EMUI8.0 05014YBL ANDROIDHOST.RU.ZIP
Once you do that, follow the DC Unlocker Tutorial to unlock you phone.
