4.5.1 Update with Root and Recovery

Trying to update the 4.5.1 and it seemed to have gone fine until it automatically reboots into TWRP recovery. Upon rebooting into system, it states the update failed. With TWRP having all those jumbled folder names right now (has this been fixed yet?) it's hard to see if the update downloaded somewhere to internal storage, and further if it could be flashed even if I found it. Is updating with an OTA like this possible? I know on basically all other phone it is not. Has anyone gotten the update to work while being unlocked, rooted, with TWRP? Thanks.

Generally you need to reflash the previous Full ROM with TWRP and then flash the OTA on top for it to work as the system must be unmodified. Alternatively, you can just flash the latest Full ROM. Currently those are not available, but that's generally how it works.

If u have installed twrp before updating the stock rom, I guess we have to wait for full rom of latest update 4.5.1 which can be flashed via twrp.
P.s. FLASHING the dwnloaded update via twrp will gives u error.. So have to wait for full rom. ?

Sooooo I have a slight problem.
I have TWRP and stock ROM. Sort of. Xtreme Addiction ROM, only one that would work and not give the error"This is an s2 not s2_na_Xxxx" so I Flashed that, and uninstalled root, now in TWRP it doesn't show my internal storage so I can't flash this ROM, and ask for a password. So I tried using the 3dot option from settings and it won't work either, it'll just boot to TWRP and nothing happens. I'm really not looking forward to deleting everything... AGAIN but I will if I have to.

Is there an update for the Le s3 x522 that can be installed though the phone update app? I am still running stock recovery and don't want to change it but it seems the OTA updates not working

I think we might be having the same problem...
My X527 came with 16s as the stock ROM.
Upgraded to 19s with TWRP which gives me the system update option as well as OTA (which says I'm running the latest version).
I want to update to 21s and use the system update method..
Phone starts to load the new update (renamed to "update.zip") progress bar at the bottom of the screen while all of this takes place.
Phone reboots into password screen for TWRP, swipe to continue, then select system reboot and once it's back up and running it is still on 19s...?
Did you get your update resolved?

I did, I used this website. https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....factory-image-5-8-020s-directly-t3527790/amp/
Downloaded Chinese TWRP from there. As well as that ROM, if you have the 21s update file, I'm sure you can get it working with that TWRP. Hopefully it works for you.

What worked for me was replacing TWRP with the factory recovery and I'm good to go.
There was talk of an official update (beyond 21s) in December but so for, no sign of that...

Interesting, replacing stock Recovery didn't work for me when I did it, and yeah. It's most likely not coming soon due to financial issues LeEco has.

I note that this says it's the ROM for the S3.
I'm using the X527 which is the S2 with the Snapdragon chip (now listed as X526 after installing 21s), did you perhaps flash the incorrect ROM?
I had continual problems upgrading from 19s with TWRP - it would go through the whole process and then reboot to 19s..
Even after the replacement of the stock recovery, the first ROM I downloaded (21s) was not accepted. Had to download another one for it to finally work.
Could be a bad download?

Contact
How did you contact leeco and get this. I need all future updates. My phone is rooted and I am unable to completely unroot it and get OTAs.

If you don't have TWRP or anything installed, it should work fine if you put the 20s update in the root folder (the folder with the android and download folders). Then just go to system update, press menu, press local update, go through prompts and it should update automatically. Then just repeat the process for the 21s update. If you have twrp installed, I'm pretty sure the chinese ydss version doesn't allow OTA installs. This update requires stock recovery installed because it updates through the recovery. You can find stock recovery images on google (search le s3 stock recovery and click skyneel) or, someone might have posted a recovery image on the le 2 forum. Plz reply if it doesn't work, it worked for me tho.

Is there any bugs? If yes please list. Thank you

does it work for le s3 X626 mtk?
if not, please guide me as I see that this forum support Le S3.
thanks.

[SOLVED] Huawei nova bricked

I folowed this tutorial https://forum.xda-developers.com/nova-plus/development/rom-aospextended-v4-6-t3717372 and all flashing was fine. Due to some inconveniences of this new flashed rom i decided to restore to default rom. I extracted recovery and update.app version Can-L11 B396 i think from firmware finder and flased with adb this recovery. After that, it asked me to do an factory reset, i did it, but it wont boot any of huawei or Aosp Extended. The main problem i have is i can`t acces any more my phone with adb terminal, maybe after flashing the new original recovery usb debbuging reverted to un-enabled. How can I do now? Thanks in advance.

Try to flash the TWRP again with fastboot.
PS: I don't understand how you people end up like this. It never happened to me.

I cant, adb cant be connected to device. Says null operation.

finally i succeed to revert o stock rom. Now i have on About phone CAN-L11C432B397, Emui 5.0 and Android 7.0. One question please, I dont see anymore the Update system tab or something, "Actualizator" on romanian language. Is that normal? How i can check for updates?

You need to install the other zip too which has the word "data_full" at zip's name or something like that.
EDIT: @campeadore, i suggest you to edit the thread name and add "[SOLVED]" at begin and write the way you've fixed your phone (the solution), so it'll help other people who might run into the same problem as you.

I`ll do it as soon i fully resolve the problem. I followed your link and everything went fine at step 1 (Go back to EMUI 4.1 (MM). System is booting, but system update is not working. So, i want to flash EMUI 5, but can-l11c432b330 or can-l11c432b396 cant be updated, around 45% gives an error. The only version who work is can-l11c432b320 but i dont have update_full_CAN-L11_hw_eu, only the first update.zip.

Newer / newest firmware downloaded from Firmware Finder needs to be approved by Huawei and that can take some time. It's failing to install because it wasn't approved. I've read this in past somewhere.
Try B381 or B382 as i've always installed that one when i've went back to EMUI 5.

Yes, i did it now with can-l11c432b330. I think my mistake was trying to flash to EMUI5 with usb cable connected. With cable off all went fine like a charm. Now i do all approved updates with system update. Thank you so much man, really appreciated.

Seeking help: I have a smartphone huawei nova lite plus (TRT LX1) that fails to restart. It goes continuously in a loop. Entering recovery only the first 2 functions come out: wipe wash factory reset and wipe wash partition. Then using eRecovery from PC with the USB cable, proceed up to a certain point and then not continue. I think it's in soft brick. I definitely need the right software for flashing, stock roms and usb drivers. Where can I find them? Many thanks

updating failed

So, I just rooted my Huawei P Smart, the 136 update shows up, it does all the install steps, reboots and then says it failed. Do O need to do something on the twrp boot?

Download the full firmware, we lose the option to just update via normal update and we can update with a full system update

I'm not an expert - I always use HuRUpdater to update. It just requires you to download the (exact) right files, renaming them correctly and (like rooting with Magisk) just simply flashing a single .zip in recovery. In case you try it out, remember rule#1: Always make sure you have a (nandroid)backup.
Here are the relevant lines from my "Huawei-related-findings" text file:
#update
"Depends on how you rooted.
For a successful OTA install your device probably must meet the following criteria
• HUAWEI stock recovery installed
• unaltered /system, /product and /vendor partitions
So if you rooted with a "systemless" method (e.g. Magisk, recent SuperSU) and haven't done other installs/modifications that typically change /system you could try it. And you have to flash stock recovery (i.e. get rid of TWRP temporarily for the OTA install)."

“It's recommended to use a proper custom recovery (with running oeminfo_nvm_server service) like for example*my version of TWRP.
How to use:
Warning: Make sure you know what you are doing and do not flash firmware from other devices.
1. Download firmware files (for official firmware use Huawei Firmware Finder).
2. Put files you want to flash in a seperate folder on sdcard.
Supported zip files to flash are (name must match):
◦ update.zip (use FullOTA file)
◦ update_all_hw.zip
◦ update_data_public.zip
3. Optional: Put recovery.img in same folder if you want to keep custom recovery.
4. Put HuRUpdater zip in same folder.
 5. Select*only HuRUpdater*to flash in custom recovery.
6. Follow instructions on screen. Flashing can take multiple minutes.
Problems:
• If firmware includes factory reset
◦ Factory reset is not supported by custom recovery. Therefore HuRUpdater will flash stock recovery before launching factory reset. After flashing firmware and doing factory reset, you need to flash recovery manually.”

Yes, I'm im the same boat - I guess you also get the "can't have connection" error using the FF app. During the last weeks they had troubles with their service regarding hackers and moving to a new server (according to their telegram group), which have been fixed ("all services working normally now"), and many can use it again - for whatever reason some still can't connect. I tried reinstalling the app, using proxies from different countries - still doesn't let me connect.
But their web interface is working: https://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/ though you can't check iirc, if the firmware has been approved for your IMEI.
According to this post:

You apparently can download this release (2379) if you own this device/board- though the last time I updated mine (.148) I used the 2079 (154226) one despite owning the exact same device. I'm slightly confused about this
I didn't try the above mentioned update myself.

Oneplus5 - OTA Update from 4.1.15 to 5.0.1/5.1.4/5.1.5 not working

Hello Community,
I am trying to update my Oneplus 5 (A5000) from
OxygenOS 4.5.14 / Android 7.1.1 / A5000_23_171031
to
OxygenOS 5.0.1 (OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_028_all_1801031502_04d7cc5.zip)
OxygenOS 5.1.4 (via OTA)
OxygenOS 5.1.5 (OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_038_all_1808082017_028e075c45a84106.zip)
I am getting an "Installation failed" error, no matter which option or image I use to upgrade:
- Download from Oneplus Homepage and Install local file from recovery
- Updating via "System updates" in Android
- Updating via "System updates -> local upgrade"
I read all the posts in this forum from the last 2 months, but nothing really seams to work:
- wipe the cache in recovery
- install "older" version than 5.1.4/5.1.5 - in my case 5.0.1
- try different methods like flash from recovery, flash from local upgrade in Android...
I have an unlocked bootloader, but the phone is not rooted. I can not tell exactly if TWRP has ever been used before, because I bought this as a used phone, which already had an unlocked bootloader. Nevertheless I was able to install previous OTA updates. But now all updates are failing.
Anyone here who could help me please?
Best Regards,
Daniel

Have you at least wiped cache in recovery(you did not mention which sort of recovery you have). Wiping cache is also an option and you'll not loose any data.
Recommendation: keep in mind to backup your whole phone from time to time

There was a similar post to this one recently where a device wouldn't update to any version of OOS. Relocking the Bootloader first was the solution in that case. You could try that.

Thanks for the reminder, I agree a 100% with you. :good:
Phone is fully backed up, I still prefer not to lose any data, as setting up everything again is not the most enjoyable thing for me.
Wiping cache via stock recovery is something I already did before, unfortunately luck.

Thanks! I think I already have seen this post, but can't find it right now. You are right, the solution was to lock the bootloader.
I wanted to avoid deleting all my data. Therefore I am primary looking for another solution. Maybe instead of going back and locking the bootloader again, going into the "other direction" where I can take advantage of the already unlocked bootloader, e.g. install custom recovery and update OSS this way? What do you think?
Best Regards,
Daniel

I had the same issue some weeks ago and the solution for me was to update from 4.5.14 to 5.0.0 with all data reset (i had already lost everything anyway). But you can maybe try it without wiping everything, only Dalvik cache. I can't find where I downloaded the 5.0.0 version (that is not stable) but I can maybe upload it on mediafire for you if you want.

I would really appreciate it, if you could upload the 5.0.0 image for me. Then I would give it a try. :good:

Yep unlock bootloader and unable to relock it, for unknown reasons (I didn't try again since).
I'll upload the 5.0.0 OOS when i'm back home tonight .
Think about using blu_shark modified TWRP, it's full Oreo compatible.

here there is the 5.0.0 OOS versions I've found : http://www.mediafire.com/folder/97sy3q5jde1tj/Roms_OP5
But be careful, and download the 5.0.1 also because the 5.0.0 is really unstable (5.0.1 is a hot fix). I used 5.0.0 only to go to 5.0.1 right after minimal configuration.

But be careful, and download the 5.0.1 also because the 5.0.0 is really unstable (5.0.1 is a hot fix). I used 5.0.0 only to go to 5.0.1 right after minimal configuration.

Thanks for your effort. I haven't had the time to continue with my open task.
Unfortunately, I came across multiple postings which explicitly warned of lost data, bootloops and other strange behaviors when updating from 4.5.14 to 5.x.x while having an "open/unlocked" bootloader.
I am a little bit worried this could also affect me in my situation. I am really not in the mood to brick my device...
Maybe I will reset everything, lock my bootloader and install everything from scratch. Just need to find the time to do this.

Even after a factory reset I wasn't able to go from 4.5.14 to 5.x.x, maybe it's link to the fact that I wasn't able to relock my bootloader. Anyway give us some news, could be useful for the next guy with the same issue !

Thanks for sharing the knowledge. Did you also have an unlocked bootloader?
I would really appreciate it, if you could upload the 5.0.0 image for me. Then I would give it a try. :good:
