Updating to nougat from OTA - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Hello, I tried to update by #*#* secret menu to B361 by downloading update from this site: hwmt.ru
unfortunately the update stops at 7% and phone restarts to current version.
I have a C150 variant that I bought at T-Mobile (Croatia)
Do i have to debrand it (to eu version) in order to successfully upgrade the phone?
If yes, that means that i have to unlock the bootloader which probably cancels the varranty. Is there an alternate option? Thanks in advance!

Is this update to B171 safe?

I recently bought my P8 Lite (ALE-21) and the OTA upgrade from ALE-L21C432B133 to ALE-L21C432B171 fails to install but crashes at 4% every time. HiSuite's update function just tells me that my B133 firmware is already the latest version.
I read that someone with the same problem solved it by downloading the update from www dot carbontesla dot com/2015/11/huawei-p8-lite-b171-android-5-0-lollipop-firmware/ and doing a local update.
However the link clearly specifies that the upgrade is for the single SIM version of the P8 and I think I might have the dual SIM version. How can I know which version I have?
Is it in any ways dangerous to install a single SIM upgrade to a dual SIM phone - will it work, will it just fail to install or is there a risk of bricking my phone?
I hope you are able to help me get the B171 upgrade working - I need those bug fixes and the possibility of doing further upgrades in the future.
It will not update if not the same version.
You have ALE-L21C432B133, this is for single sim; you can wait for MM or download the correct full firmware update from huawei and do a local update, this should be the correct B171: http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=67404&version=236427&siteCode=cz

Update to Android Marshmallow

Hi there,
I have a Huawei P8 Lite ALE-L21 (C432B133) and from Carphone Warehouse UK. Also, i think my device is Dual Sim if that helps.
I was wondering, how do i update my device to either Marshmallow Beta, or the full marshmallow OS without rooting/unlocking bootloader.
If you can help me in any way, that would be great - Thank you
Upgrade to b170 first via local update,then update from folder vendor/custom(if exists) via local update too,then update to b560.

Change/Downgrade Firmware from ALE-L21C02B589

Hi,
I want to change/downgrade my firmware to remove Vodafone branding. Can someone tell me what firmware I can use without unlocking/rooting my phone.
Model - ALE-L21
Build Number - ALE-L21C02B589
Custom Version - CUSTC02D001
Network - Vodafone
Thanks
None, all downgrades requiere an unlocked bootloader.
Here's the guide to unlocking the bootloader

Here's the guide to installing EU firmware (C432) (It says UAE but don't mind that)

Here's the link to download the necessary firmware

I followed these to install EU firmware. I had asian firmware (C636) at first. Hopefully it'll work for you too.
Thanks

VNS-L31C432B130 Firmware Android 7

Hi,
I have a rooted P9 Lite(2016) with Dual SIM and want to Update to Android 7.
But I can't update OTA because it's a rooted device.
My model: VNS-L31C432B130
I think i have 2 options: First is to unroot and update it OTA and than again root, because it's very important to root for me.
Second option is to download and install it manually.
But i don't know which firmware i have to choose. Only thing i know is that my device is VNS-L31 version.
There is so many firmware on the internet. Can i choose all firmware that begins with VNS-L31 or is there something to consider?
For example this version: VNS-L31C636B361
Which way is easier and which firmware should i choose?
thanks

The right firmware for your phone is L-31C432B370
L-31 is the phone model, if you flash firmwares with wrong phone model your phone will certainly soft brick or brick.
C432 is the region, for example c636 is Oriental/Chinese region, c185 is American or other (I don't remember), c432 is European. If you flash firmwares with wrong region, the phone will probably go into c900, the global region, And it would be difficult to restore to the factory firmware.
B*** is the actual firmware version. From 300 is android nougat, and the versions that end with 0 ("b370") are for dual SIM, those that end with 1 ("b371") are for single SIM.

l-31c432b370 how to install
Hi,
I have bricked my device today with this update https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=961840155545586862
I install it via twrp and than had the issue with voice command instead keyboard during setup. Fortunately I am now again back to Android 6.
Could anyone please tell me which one I have to choose and by which method I have to install it. I mean, should I install it with stock recovery or with tmrp.
My device is now unlocked and it's rooted with twrp.
Is that the right data: http://www.stechguide.com/huawei-p9-lite-b388-b389-nougat-update/
There are 3 files. One update.app and than Update data and update file. Should i install all 3 files or which one I have to choose?
Ps: Normally my system was Vns-l31c432b130 and now I have Vns-l31c432b161. But the phone is dual sim though.
Many thanks

Hello,
if anyone else has the same issue, this is the way to solve it.
First install the right rollback package and the stock Rom.
Here is a tutorial:

After I was again on stock, I updated first to b370 and than again updating to b380 by Huawei system update app.
Again unlock and install twrp and su if you wish to.

Can I force update a branded untouched P9 lite 2017?

Helo.
I have a PRA-LX1C02B151 Vodafone branded device. Nothing unlocked. I checked Firmware Finder and found out that version B153 is available.
Normal update check it's not showing the new version.
My question is if it's possible to update my device to the new version (maybe using Firmware Finder proxy update sistem)? Anyone tryed something like that on an untouched branded device?
