It just says, that version is incompatible with current b170 version.
Besides, tried upgrade through FF, but it does nothing even when I change proxy setings :/

Nope, it's 100% safe and u'll never get a bootloop, but it's safe to always make a backup before u make an update. Cu multa placere

It's a bug with that proxy setting... restart the phone and it will work

I am on VNS-L21C432B336 (beta) and i'm unable to install B370 via FF proxy. After downloading, it fails verification with error "failed to authenticate the package....will be deleted".
I can't post in the P9 Lite thread, so i am trying here, if someone can help me.
Do i need to downgrade to MM, B160? Cam i update to 370 via dload folder and 3 buttons method without downgrading?
I already tried rollback via this metod http://forum.xda-developers.com/huaw...vices-t3563955 and after 5% it gives the error "Software install failed! Incompatibility with current version. Please download the correct update package."
Do i have to do anything else before loading the rollback file onto the SD Card in the dload folder?

I used the exact rollback package to rollback from b371 incomplete build to b160 and worked great...

Is my phone supposed to be rooted, or have TWRP installed for the operation to be completed successfully?
I tried 2 times and it always fails at 5 % giving the error "Software install failed! Incompatibility with current version. Please download the correct update package."

The phone should be unrooted with stock recovery for this to work.
Did you try directly updating to b370 or 371 via 3 button method ? Not sure if this would work but this is what I would try to do if I we're you.

When i bought the phone, the bootloader has already been unlocked, and TWRP installed. I wanted a clean experience so i flashed the beta 336. TWRP is gone, so i belive is not rooted anymore. The message at startup still shows up that " your phone can't be trusted". So is the bootloader locked now? Can it even be relocked?

I don't know the answer. As far as i know flashing b336 should relock the bootloader and get back to stock recovery. In development topic there is a discussion about going back to stock. Maybe there you will find the way to get back to stock.
Don't try to flash b370 or b371 if you are unsure that the bootloader is locked. I will search more info on this and get back to you if i can find something.

I have read on the forum that is not possible to flash b370 directly from b336. If it bricks the phone, how will i flash another stock rom? I was planning to rollback to b160 and upgrade to b370 using the firmware finder and the stock updater. I might give it a try, flashing the B370 directly. Also, will i need 2 files, on the dload folder? The update.app and the big 1.94gb image? Thanks
Also, if huawei finally releases the B370 OTA. will i get the update automatically if i am on beta?

Helpful video
I was having difficulty figuring out how to use Firmware Finder when I upgraded to B360 on my VNS-L21. Then I found this video, and it worked perfectly.
Forgive me if this is old news, but it may help someone who is also having difficulty:
I am unable to post the YouTube URL as I am fairly new, but search for this title: "[How to] Using Firmware Finder by Team MT. Installing any firmware from Huawei update server."

I finally managed to find the courage to update. Went smoothly. I can confirm that Firmware Finder works, but be careful to download the right package. For B160 - B370 and B161 - B371. Both are 1.94 GB in size. Nougat is very nice and all features work as intended. Lets see the battery life now...

Rollback to Stock Firmware - European Version

Hi,
I played a bit around with my Huawei P9 Lite, but I forgot to save my initial settings (originally it's a branded phone by 3 Austria). - Yes, my bad.
Now I'd like to go to back to the original firmware. I realised that I have firmware VNS-L21C900B161. - But my phone used to have C432, not C900.
What does C900 mean? Do I still get updates? How do I get a C432 firmware?
Sorry for those many questions, but I am desparate. I just want the correct Version for Europe (unbranded). - Also to get the update to Android Nougat.
Any help is appreciated.
Seth01
You must flash oeminfo C432 and then flash update.app...there are good tutorial in youtb.....
It worked, but... :/
Hi
thank you so much for your help. Now I have the European OEM C432 Version.
But if I (re)boot my smartphone now, it says , "Your device has failed verification and may not work properly." - But it does work properly and it also boots normally then.
How do I get rid of this message?
Greetings,
Seth

I am actually afraid to reflash. Will it then not become OEM version C900 again?
Can I flash via SD-Card with the dload folder, or do I need a tool? (I have downloaded and used the "VNS-L21-L22-L31 Toolkit.exe".)
Seth
Did you make factory reset before boot??
Yes, i did. And In the meantime the message is gone. So everything's fine so far.
But my bootloader is still open.
Any idea how to close? The message on reboot that the device can't be trusted, is rather annoying.
Seth
You got to relock.use the toolkit.....for me after downgrade that warning message about bootloader unlock is gone.but in fastboot my phone is unlocked...
Yeah, I'll try tomorrow. I tried to lock with the tool, but it crashed when I tried to.
Thank you to all of you for your help!

Nope. It will not become because you will flash the c432 version. That message you get is because you unlocked your bl. A simple relock or firmware flash via dload will solve your problem.

FRD-L09/L19 Rollback easy way

Hi
After searching both xda and official huawei site i finally found the rollback package for FRD-L09 and FRD-L19.
Method is:
1. Download rollback package (73,32 mb) and firmware (1,75gb) from: http://www.hihonor.com/uk/support/search-result/index.html?keywords=Honor 8#filter-section
2. Unzip rollback package and copy dload folder and Update.app to phone (dload/update.app)
Turn off phone, wait 10 sec.. Turn on phone by PRESSING BOTH (UP AND DOWN) VOLUME KEYS AND POWER KEY until emui screen, then release. The update installs automatically.
3. Delete "old/small" update.app from dload folder on phone
4. Unzip firmware and copy the update.app to dload folder on phone
Turn off phone, wait 10 sec.. Turn on by phone PRESSING BOTH (UP AND DOWN) VOLUME KEYS AND POWER KEY until emui screen, then release. The update installs automatically.
Now you have latest official Android 6.0
thank's
thank you, tomorrow morning i try
Did as you mentioned, but when I want to go back to MM the Updater says that the Package isn't available and stops at 12%. Could u pls help me.
I can confirm this works 100%. Followed the steps and I was back to Android 6. After setting up the phone I downloaded the OTA-update to 7.0. No problems at all, thank you very much for this small but very useful guide!!!
Hi guys,
I'm looking for a rollback method for the Asian model (FRD-L09C636) because a rollback package for this version doesn't seem to exist.
Has anyone tried to flash the MM firmware directly without the rollback package?
Thanks

I was able to downgrade my Malaysia version Honor 8 Nougat (FRD-L09C636B380) back to Marshmallow (FRD-L09C636B130) according to this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70863098&postcount=6
The rollback package is probably usable for all FRD-L09 as I have done the downgrading.
This worked fine, thx very much
Greatbro.

Probably downgrade. Looks like my camera hardware has died, fails on all custom roms and on restored emui5. So I need to return it.

Yes, that's what I did, I had a full TWRP backup of all partitions - restored them all, rebooted fine into the phone, but the camera had just disappeared, like it had been uninstalled. Used gallery to get to camera, and it fails to open.

[Q] Ota update

How can i install the ota update?
I´ve unlocked bootloader, twrp and root.
I always get update failed.
The update is VKY-L29C432B123.
Thanks in advance!
Why are you trying to install an ota update on a modified phone? You're just asking for trouble really.
Maybe because i want the update and it irritates me when it notifies all the time. It's not your problem if i want to update ?
Still looking for a solution?

Let us know if you find it! :laugh:
Ok.
- Download a full ota with the app "firmware finder" from the play store.
- unpack update.app from the zip file
- extract recovery.img from the update.app with Huawei update extracted (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454)
- flash via fastboot
- the update should work now
- reflash twrp again when needed
:laugh: that link is 4 years old! Are you really trying to tell us that works? In any case I'm on the latest release for my device.
It works

The question wasn't why you are trying to update at all but why you are trying to install a regular update on a MODIFIED device, because it should have gone without saying that this can't work!
Ok, jump in the forum...
Just bought my P10plus (6gb/128gb) a few days ago, and surprisingly there is no update for my device(based in the Netherlands) latest update was b123. So how can I install the latest b133 update if I download through the app from play store?
Locked bootloader, no modifications at all.
Thx.
Is it worth to install at all?

Only ways for updating past B123 right now are either through unlocking bootloader or by using Funkyhuawei. For the latter you have to pay though, currently minimum 23$. Imho there is no noticable difference between B123 and B133 though.
I would like to do OTA update on a Rooted P10 Plus as well... with TWRP
I only knew how to root the phone. Took me a while to root, not as easy as my other phones. Thus I don't want to unroot an reroot again.
Though I can wait, I dont really need to get the update installed the same day as OTA.
Is there any way to install it easily?
I hope this helps you guys.
https://www.getdroidtips.com/huawei-p10-plus-b160-nougat-firmware/
This method from Mate 9 forum works, and it's free (I've flashed like 4/5 OTAs with it).
But it does a factory reset everytime, since you must unlock bootloader, and it becomes locked again with new OTA flashed, so need to backup first.
The oeminfo files for VKY-L09 (single sim), VKY-L29 (dual sim) and VKY-ALL (chinese dual sim) are in the zip, so you have to chose the right one and accordingly be sure to find the right files from hwmt.ru for your device ( i.e. don't try to instal L29 firmware with a L09 branded device ; it should boot, but you'll have a lot of weird bugs and it won't show the right device name in phone infos).
Hope it helps :good: !

Hey man,
there is no problem for the PM but it's always better to create (if not asked yet)
or post help requests on an existing thread ...
This way everyone can see that you need.
Or use @ to quote someone and call them back the attention ...
As I have already written in other posts I do not have anymore the P9 lite as I sold it.
Soon I will not even have the P10 lite anymore and I will not attend often this thread ...
Let's see now what can be done, it seems almost a desperate case ....
Unfortunately, the magic wand does not work and I can not do magic so you have to help me.
Which version of TWRP did you use?
Are you 100% sure that the android version was NOUGAT when you tried to root the device?
In which region of the world do you live? (serves for the regional version of the firmware),
but I think you could also use other versions (by rebranding) ...
Single or dual sim?
Can you access the system?
Boots in TWRP?
Does fastboot / bootloader mode work?
Dear answer these questions and "maybe" with a few days
we can bring it back to life .... I said maybe ...
Regards

Hey !
have you read other posts before requests for help ?
There are a lots about.
Use Huawei Firmware Finder app to try to upgrade, go for B362 FULL OTA MF PV first
and if don't succeed try with B362 FULL OTA MF one.
All the info are inside the app.
Upgrade manually should be possible with Meticulus TWRP v4,
but it is very dangerous because of bricks, and i don't reccomend you to do, but
phone is yours and if you don't succeed with FF you could give a try... (be carefull)
Good luck ! :fingers-crossed:

Yes i read a lot stuff but i tried somes methods from here but i cant make the upgrade. For example yesterday i tried with the app of huawei firmware and i use the dns method, downloading the upgrade and then when its going to install fails at 1% and i have to reboot the phone. I dont know what its happening. Also i tried to instal manually with the dload carpet method and also reach to 5% of the upgrade and fails.

For example yesterday i tried with the app of huawei firmware and i use the dns method, downloading the upgrade and then when its going to install fails at 1% and i have to reboot the phone. I dont know what its happening. Also i tried to instal manually with the dload carpet method and also reach to 5% of the upgrade and fails.

Well, dload method won't work to upgrade to android 7.
Try the versions i suggested you.
Follow correctly the procedure inside the app,
try with vpn method.
Select the update, verify it with your imei and launch the download.(edited)
Look inside your inbuild updater if an update is offered.
If yes download till 5% and press pause. Now stop vpn, then continue with inbuild updater.
You should be able to upgrade..
edit: verify the update with imei and select the method (vpn)

By vpn i download the version 362 but when the phone its going to install fails at 1%.
Then i tried the dload carpet (put inside the carpet META INF and the archives full_mainpkg.tag and update.app), then i dial *#*#2846579#*#* and i upgrade sd. When its installing fails at 5% like the pic attached.

Damn... are you full stock ? do you switched between roms ?
Maybe your current firmware aren't able to upgrade
and need an intermedie firmware such as this one - VNS-L23C605B120CUSTC605D126
(i think is for dual sim but not sure, check with imei first and really don't know if will work).
If let you update to this firmware you should look forward for android 7.

Thats the version i have installed VNS-L23C605B120CUSTC605D126. I check with imei and the B362 FULL OTA MF PV and its ok to install. When i use VPN mode offer to download the version you said, b362 (456mb), when its going to install also fails at 2%.
The phone its not unlocked o rooted, i dont know if thats the problem.

So you did it ? Yeahh that's a good new !!
Dude update the same way you already done with FF. Try with latest rom...
In FF, in search tab type only VNS-L23C605 and you'll see all the available firmwares.
Select B394 FULL OTA MF (2.07gb size), use the vpn method, register and use inbuild updater.
As i can see this should be the latest fmw for your device with july 2018 security patch.
The other way to update is using Huawei Recovery Updater, you easily find here on XDA,
but you need to unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery. Better use FF directly.
Cheers

I tried a lot of versions but dont download. All said that its the last version.
I g to ff, choose the version, put download dns and activate the vpn. Then go to the updater and nothing happens.

Check this Youtube video.
If even can't make an update you can still use one of the HWOTA methods
or use Huawei Recovery updater, you find all here on XDA.
Best regards
