Guys i have recently flashed Lollipop 5.O (Dated 25-02-15) on my device, now there have been many updates after that version as well, approx 6 updates. I would like to know can i simply flash the latest firmware update on my device (Dated 26-03-16)? Before this update there are almost 5 different updates,or is it compulsory that i flash the 5 updates before flashing the latest update as mentioned above.
No need for order, just flash the one you want
I was confused by seeing a new firnware version at huawei website places 5th of august 2016 that ends with C636B320 and if i google that it looks like it could be android 6.0?
There is no version number written on the website:
http://consumer.huawei.com/my/support/products/downloads/detail/ascend-g7-my.htm?id=86353
I tried installing it on my phone but I always get installation failed, maybe because my phone is from a different region..
Anyway would be great if they bring an official android 6 update for our G7!
The firmware you linked to is Lollipop.
Android 6.0 is currently only official in Turkey and China, but we are still waiting for the European version to be released.
Unfortunately, we don't know how long we will need to wait for it, if it is ever released.
Also, you are correct that you are unable to install the update since you are only able to install updates from your own region, or carrier (if your device is branded).
Ok I see, a download link of 6.0 is availible on this site, but will probably not work because of different region..
But I will try it, i'm dowloading it now.
Was it successfull? I am still waiting for this update to be released for european devices.
Hello to everyone.
I would kindly ask for your help.
A friend of mine has a zenphone 5. She is experiencing various problems with the playstore synching, viber synching etc and getting errors with play services.
The phone is on android Kit Kat (4.4.2 if I recall correctly).
As I am more experienced with phones, she asked to me to have a look at it and see what can be done.
I do not want to root the phone and/or install an unofficial rom (like lineage) as I will not be the one using the phone, and my friend is completely unaware of what to do in case there is a problem with the phone.
So my best thing would be to perform a backup, then wipe all data and finally update the firmware to the latest official available version.
As I never had an asus phone before (I am more experienced in rooting/updating unofficial roms etc to sony and samsung phones) I kindly ask for your help.
The phone is a zenphone 5 T00F has a WW sku. I attach a screenshot of the firmware version. I found on asus website and downloaded the latest firmware UL-ASUS_T00F-WW-2.22.40.540-user.
How do I install it?
Also, I believe that there is also a lollipop official update for this phone? Where can I find it and how can I Install it?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanx.
Hello , you want the phone to be in stock rom , right ? @madvinegar
1) update to latest kitkat version by ota updates . Latest kitkat version is 2.22.40.540
2) if you want to update to android l then after updating to latest kitkat just place the file (rom update zip ) into internal storage ( not inside any folder just in the internal storage ) . A pop up will come just tap it the update will be done .
3) But if pop up does not come then just reboot your phone once . The latest version of lollipop which you need to download is 3.24.40.87
Alternatively you can sideload the official firmware , if you know how to :laugh: just make sure you download the rom as per your device sku
stock rom official

Yes you are right. I had to scroll further down.
One odd thing happened.
As you have seen in the screenshot I uploaded in my 1st post, the SKU of the phone seems to be WW.
So I downloaded the update for WW, but when I tried to apply it, I got an error saying that the update failed. I think the reason was that the SKU found on the phone was "CUCC". How can this be...?
In any case I am downloading now the firmware update 2.22.40.540 for CUCC and I will try again. What is the difference between CUCC and WW...?
Also, I don't see that there is a lollipop update for CUCC. Can I use the SKU of another firmware? i.e. WW?

So in my case I will have to download and install first the WW 1.14 (not the CN 1.14) since my formware now is the ASUS_T00F_WW_user_1.13.40.8_20140516_17063.
Correct?

Yes , else the best way is to get a stock based modified rom like gecko premium, mnml rom which is lollipop rom based on official lollipop .87 firmware . Unlock bootloader flash the rom , lock the bootloader again .

So, I finally managed to solve the problem and update the zenphone 5 to lollipop.
My problem was the recovery image which was either faulty and/or different version from the firmware. To be precise, the recovery was CUCC, while the firmware was WW.
So, to solve the problem I did the following:
1. Using fastboot, I flashed the latest recovery image from WW 2.22.40.540
2. Again using fastboot, I flashed the latest fastboot image from WW 2.22.40.540.
3. Then using ADB I flashed the latest firmware WW 2.22.40.540
So, after successfully flashing the latest kitkat firmware WW 2.22.40.540, then I downloaded the latest lollipop firmware WW 3.24.40.87, placed the zip file inside the internal storage of the phone and rebooted. After reboot, a notification was waiting for me to update to lollipop. I pressed OK to continue, the phone rebooted, installed the firmware, updated all android apps, and ... voila ... the phone rebooted to Android Lollipop 5.0
@Boomshiva I thank you very much for all your kind help and guidance.

I was trying to sideload the firmware many times, but I was getting an error.
Only after I flashed first the correct recovery image, I managed to sideload the firmware.
All is well now.
Everywhere I've been looking for the stock ROM for my phone (Moto G4 XT1622 RETEU channel), but I just find links to some sketchy file hosting sites with old versions. Is there any official way to get the latest stock ROM?
I was on LineageOS for the longest time but decided to go back to Stock because a game got updated and doesn't work on any custom ROM anymore.
The ROMs provided by Motorola are old - 6.0.1 (Build MPJ24.139-64) to be precise. As far as I know the update to Nougat has long been released. But I installed the old version anyways, thinking that I'll get the new one via OTA. But every time I check for an update it tells me I'm on the latest version.
Is it because I have an unlocked bootloader? I already tried to relock, but if I understand correctly, I need a newer version of the stock ROM to lock it. ("preflash validation failed / security version downgrade"). But I don't have or can find a newer version xD Am I screwed?
Look on MOTO G4 Plus forum on XDA. Both are Athene and should work for both devices. Revivor2, CreamPie Nougat, and stock by DroidPhil are roms that can be flashed via TWRP. You can download official stock roms and flash via FASTBOOT also. March Security Update is the safest official 7.0 stock rom to flash. June Security Update is an OTA addition to March's one and can cause brick on some devices if you want to roll back to an older rom like March Security Update.

Hello, I recently updated my m30s to android 10, but I didn't like it
i downloaded stock room android 9 of my country from a site called sammobile,
and i installed it using ODIN, everything works perfect,
my only question is: is it possible to get ota updates back ?
Because when I tried to check for updates,
its says you current software is not supported. Visit a service center.
