I believe you have to go back to the stock recovery, unroot, and THEN update to MM... but I'm not sure how.

Sorry
I can't find it but before that you need to update to B200 and then to Marshmallow
You can install B200 via fastboot also

Good to know.
One more question. If I go back to stock recovery and unroot, I should be able to fine the OTA update via the EMUI's updater? (whatever version it is)

After restoring the stock recovery reinstall your current OS and then you should be able to update via the updater app or by the dload method

What is your full build version - GRA-xxxCxxxB190?
--------------------
Btw, another way to update in your situation without losing root, is by using an all-in-one tool like FlashFire:

Thanks, will give it a look.
EDIT: My OTA update doesn't even show up, so I'm not sure if FlashFire can help me.
The full build is GRA-L09C469B190

Ok, before going any further, I strongly recommend making a nandroid backup using TWRP & also transferring a copy of the backup to another device, like a PC/laptop if possible...

If you have the Huawei HiCare installed, does it offer any updates when you check via it? If not, install it & check in both these places in the app:
HiCare app > Me tab > Check for updates
HiCare app > Service tab > OS Upgrade Early Adopters

You should only apply updates with the same Cxxx as yours.I thought that you have C432 from the other guy's post so I'm sorry.
And I've found B210 with C469 so you can update to this first with extracting the recovery from it with Huawei Update Extractor and flashing via fastboot and then updating via dload but i don't know if there's EMUI 4.0 for C469.

Hi,
What happens if you update with the wrong Cxxx?
I just got a used p8 that's got GRA-L09C02B191 on it. I'd like to update it to Android6 before starting to screw around with custom ROMs. I've got FirmwareFinder running, and it's already found 200+ options, none of which appears to be C02, despite that being my range setting. Is my model unupdateable?
TIA!

You will get C900 and won't be able to get OTA updates, themes may not work and Android pay.

If OTA method doesn't work, here are the available firmwares for your phone at Huawei (including Android 6).

Thanks for the lightning fast reply!
That's not so bad, I don't care about themes, don't use Android Pay, and doing the updates manually isn't a huge pain. Is there anything else that I lose? Presumably I'll be able to roll back to gra-l09c02b191 to restore full functionality?
So can I then just go directly for the latest firmware, which I guess is B370?
Thanks!

Yes B160 is the latest version.

Sorry I misread your post, for some reason I saw you are rooted. Just use the dload method and everything will be fine I've used the dload method every update and still getting OTA updates and stuff, that's all okay.

I ask if anyone has tested?

I got B336 ota for L21C432 too. Maybe it's safe.
Make a backup first (oeminfo is important!!!)

It does not work for me, I must be bad.
Firmware finder tells me ota l31c432b336 00mb.
............. b335 00mb.
I think that is not free in France for the moment. I have to wait update ota beta-test for that to work.
I think for ota beta-release releases (c185b331 ......), it must work

Yes on the pc it goes well.
But not on the phone.
I will reinitialize the phone and start again because I uninstalled the application and clean the sd card it does not want.

It's better to wait until you get it from the OTA updater, not from FF proxy. At least if you don't wanna brick your phone

Sorry if I do not understand what you are asking. But I understand you have ota b370 and you have now written nrd90m and you are missing some applications.
So now I hate that Dload the file update.app of the second file should go.
It does 128.MO and in it i see cust.img (120.54MB).
I have rc4 with root browser, I see cust, HW, eu, app, there is everything you miss.
So I was thinking that maybe you should be dload update.app from second file hwdatafull. that's all.
hwdatafull c432b370 with bootloader lock.

Hi, i just get the update today and it was 1,99GB big. I think you have to leave enough space, 4,5GB minimum for the upgrade. It seems there are two Update Packages. Maybe if there is not enough space, the updater just take only one package.

Guys, if the update file has not been approved for your device's IMEI it won't work. I've tried myself with FF, dload, rolling back to MM, and TWRP without success. You'll only get the "authentication failed" message no matter what method you try. In my experience these posted files might not be the final release versions. If you use the "Check Firmware Access" option within FF app you'll be able to see if the file you're attempting to download has been approved for installation.
