Thank you for the info.
However, OTA shouldn't be the only option. We want a full ROM and the wait has been long enough now...
Many people criticize Apple but at least, they do release updates regularly so that 1) security breaches are closed and 2) their customers can enjoy their old products with new software features quite regularly with noticeable look'n feel and performance improvements.
When I will have to replace my tablet... I know what I will do.

Finally i got OTA Update suddenly after i put simcard on my huawei mediapad m3

Have you gotten an official OTA or have you used Firmware Finder? If it was official, which region are you from?

I got official OTA, my Huawei mediapad m3 is Hong Kong version and have LTE, I live at Indonesia. Before I cannot get OTA update maybe because I set airplane mode, after I put Hong Kong simcard suddenly notification show OTA update.

I succeed to update my huawei m3 8.4 to Nougat 7.0 and EMUI 5.0 (Hong Kong version) :
download the zip file at:
update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1224/g490/v93016/f1/full/hw/spcseas/update_data_full_hw_spcseas.zip
unzip it into a folder 'dload'
Then copy this 'dload' folder into your SD Card.
Turn off the device.
Before turn on again, hold 'Volume+' pressed and press the 'ON' button until the update process start.
Enjoy
ps: the Hong Kong Huawei customer service was totally NOT professional and totally USELESS in this process.
Huawei device are beautifully designed but the security software update is a real pain in the ass.
Next time, I will not buy Huawei any device again !

Thanks.
It worked like a charm for me. Thank you so much Paolomangiare for your help !!!!

Does anyone know if the US Wifi version BTV-W09 (on Nougat) can flash this in such manner to regain the 5 GHz Wifi capability?
Thanks.

Does it mean that i can manually flash b137 chinese firmware on my german mate 8 and i receive the OTA update b156 and can install it?
no idea, i guess it depends on how ota updates identify devices that are allowed to receive it. if the phone model name takes any part of it and its modified by crossflashing (such as mine is when i flashed the international rom), then i guess u wont receive otas...
in any case, duraaraa provided a twrp image so u can just use that to flash to a blank B156 firmware.
Sent from my Huawei Mate 8 NXT-AL10 using Tapatalk
Is the OTA available for manual flash?
duraaraa made a twrp backup of a blank B156 firmware that one can flash manually its in the other B156 thread
Hm... i was hoping for a clean original update; I have not modified my device;
in that case ull just have to wait until u get your OTA notification for the B156 update thats the thing about OTA´s, not everyone gets those at the same time!
the B156 OTA only update actually IS available for manual flash but its kinda finicky... see duraaraas post on how to modify the B137 OTA zip to include the B156 update...
Thanks jbmc83; I will wait then
Do you know if the new update fixed Google Location services without activating GPS ?

My US 32GB wifi version still got nothing

This was only the build number. The complete version number is like BTV-DL09-C100B303.
Germany, LTE version, BTV-DL09C100B303 received OTA on July 19 ... it was a long wait :good:
I received my new U S m3 model about 2 weeks ago. As soon as I went online it offered the new nougat update. I updated and everything works fine.

This is the current information.
As I said, before that I used the same version (dont know the custome version) but installed via huawai firmware updater
Thanks. What is interesting for me is that you have the same custom version. Because i read somewhere else that this custc100d002 version won't get an update. Ok, your update path seams to be not standard but there is still hope that i will get an update also...

My device also has version CUSTC100D002. Like I posted above, got it OTA.
I'm in germany and have no OTA Update until now.
Hello to everybody. I bought my M3 with LTE a month or two ago from Amazon DE however I live in Bulgaria(I use UK local settings for the tablet). I'm still at BTV-DL09C100B009 with which it came and I'm not getting any OTA updates. I keep it without SIM because my two cards are in my mobile phone and I don't need one for the tablet in everyday usage. I only use data-only SIM with it when I travel.
Anyway I moved one of my SIM's from my phone to the tablet in the hopes I would get the update and then return it back but still nothing. I even installed the latest HiSuite but even there it says I'm on the latest official build. Am I missing something? Why am I not getting the official update and is there a way to install it manually(FirmwareFinder perhaps? and how to differentiate it from the previous file with the same version)? Also from what version did you receive your updates when they came?
I would appreciate any help.
Best regards,

Downgrade Huawei Mediapad M3 (China) from nougat to Marshmellow

Hi XDA peeps,
I have recently brought a Huawei Mediapad M3 and i love it, but i would like to downgrade it so I can root it afterwards. Why downgrade? Because the on the official website where you're supposed to unlock the bootloader. You need to select whether the tablet is EMUI4/4.1 or EMUI 5. Because I have Nougat I do have EMUI 5, I need to select EMUI 5 on the website. However I can't set the category on "tablet", only "smartphone". It will ask for a IMEI/MEID number, which I dont have... You can select "tablet" only if I had EMUI4/4.1..
pic1: (replace https here ) puu.sh/xgE0a/5653d42650.png
pic2: (replace https here ) puu.sh/xgE2j/01998bb7ed.png
I was wondering if its possible to downgrade the M3(CN) to marshmellow. I saw there where tools available to downgrade for the US(Sorry, no US, my bad) and Eu version, but not for the chinese version. Does anyone know how to downgrade the M3? Or maybe a other way to unlock the bootloader, so i can install TWRP? I'd like to install a different rom.
Any other suggestions are welcome too!

I'm looking to downgrade the US version. Could you share where you found the tools to downgrade the US version? I've only been able to find rollback for the EU version.

I'd swear i'd found a roll back for US, but it seems it doesn't exist. Otherwise you'd be able to download it from the official Huawei website. Sorry man.
You need to install Huawei tablet software (can't remember the name) on your pc and in there it will give you an option to rollback. That's what I had to do, to downgrade.

You are the man! I installed HiSuite and it gave me the option to upgrade the firmware OR to downgrade to version Android 6.0 with EMUI 4.1.3(Chinese version). I've successfully got the unlock bootloader code from the huawei site. Going to install TWRP soon.. Thanks again!

*If you follow these instructions, do so at your own risk. I had success with it, I am not responsible for anything that might happen*
At this point, I could retrieve bootloader code from the huawei website and unlocked the tablet with these instructions: http://www.stechguide.com/unlock-bootloader-of-huawei-devices/
Installed ONLY twrp: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-m3/development/twrp-greatslon-mod-t3489232
Used "Firmware finder rewrite" to find the correct firmware. My case i wanted to flash to C100(EU): https://puu.sh/yjdFb/a295fb3207.png
Uploaded the zip files to the SD card, rebooted the tablet in TWRP(complete shutdown tablet, no cable connected, hold up and power button till screen turns on).
install update.zip then put the other zip in the queue. Install and reboot, enjoy.
It does not look like it comes with google play, browser or any bloatware(it dint work).
Since I now have EMUI 5, i needed to download twrp specially for emui 5.
Had some problems with not being able to open google play or gmail. I reinstalled the rom with this one: http://www.stechguide.com/huawei-mediapad-m3-b303-nougat-firmware/, cleared dalvik cache and set timezone in TWRP. After flashing the rom, did a factory reset. Now google play services work! Happy days

Nxt-l29c185b582 ?!

Did anyone try Nxt-l29c185b582 from ff and which one to pick full one 1.9 gb or ota 750 mb ??!
I tried 2 but do not accept the update says that the update is unofficial
So ota and full didn't work ?
Hi.
Yes unauthorized package.
This update cannot install.
If you check this firmware with "CHECK FIRMWARE ACCESS" in FF it shows this message "the firmware is not approved for installation.
I don't know why cannot we get faster update on C185.!!
Because we are in the middle East ?

Yes you are right.... They don't even care about our phones....
Huawei is busy with new additions for getting old phones
So if they want to bring new things for mate 8,(Android Oreo):confused I think this is the best time to rebrand our phone from ME to better region such C636.
Because I think we will get andriod Oreo after other regions.
I think we should change our model from C185 to C636
Well please explain the conversion from c185 to c636

Firstly, have to downgrade firmware to marshmallow (if you are on Nougat currently) then use "SRKToolHuawei" application to rebrand your mate 8 from C185 to C636.
Once you are on C636 then you can update your mate 8 to NXT-L29C636B589.

I have rebrand my mate from c185 to c636 yesterday and installed this firmware NXT-L29C636B521. after that updated my mate by firmware finder to NXT-L29C636B589.
The ram usage in this version is very good and about battery performance I should check it but a very amazing thing:
" The phone was in standby mode about 7 hours (one sim card) and my charge dropped from 54% to 54% Within these seven hours."

Hi. My friend
I flash B521 by twrp then the frimware locked my boot loader automatically. After that I used ff to update frimware by OTA.
Frist, update b521 to b585 then b585 to b589.
I downloaded the fullota-mf and the ota-mf.
As you see there is difference between frimware version, I mean the fullota-mf is 96925 and ota-mf 96926.
TWRP cannot flash this kind of fullota files you have to update by your phone directly.
So anyone actually test c185b582 ? It may better than c636b589 though

Would you happen to know of a direct download link for this update? Or might you be able to post a copy of the file that you downloaded for others to access?
Many of us in areas where updates are often delayed for long periods, such as here in Canada, use a VPN to download updates from India as soon as they're available. However, this method doesn't work so far for participating in / downloading the beta.
I think is not possible to acess update's file, so, we have to wait till stable release...
Got coloros11.1 update on 27 jan

			
				
Today should be the release of coloros 11 final in India and Indonesia. Did someone receive it?
Received..
they just changed the March 3rd beta update to official.
That's it no additional download required.
If you already received the beta update of March 3rd 2021 you are running the official version.
I am trying with Speedify India and Indonesia servers, but nothing
It seems Oppo won't release the full Android 11 ROM on their support site for a while (Find X2 Android 11 was available since last Nov but the full ROM is still not available for download as of now).
For us non India/Indonesia variant users might need to do the region change trick to get the download working, saw that on Find X2 Pro forum but haven't try that out myself yet:
[GUIDE] Switch software region to Upgrade to ColorOS 11 and enable Dual Sim.
I want to write this here so it's all in one place and not scattered around different threads. Apologies for the bad formatting in some parts as this is on of my first contribution. Most of this is copied from this thread: I am adding onto this...
forum.xda-developers.com
Update:
I was able to swtich my Taiwan variant (CPH1919TW) to India version using the method above, and has upgraded my phone to Android 11 successfully. Not even VPN is needed, just click the apply trial version in settings after reboot.
Overall some nice improvments here and there, not as huge improvement going from Android 9 to Andorid 10, but still a nice upgrade. System is smooth as usual (I didn't do a clean install, just upgrade).
Considering there is still no confirmed upgrade schedule on other regions, it's worth to try the above method, it's not that difficult neither.
Holy ****, it works. Many thx to you squallho1
After switch to India version, apply trial version and now downloading in Czech republic without VPN.
Working in The Netherlands! Changed to Phone to India with above mentioned tutorial and now downloading coloros11, thanks!
And now that the phone region is India I finally have the dual wifi option available in the settings
Using the above guide Android 11 working fine. But now the phone has some bloatware on it - the Oppo App Store - though you can hide Hotapps & Hotgames in the AppStore settings.
I thought changing the region back EuropeEx might get rid of it - but I get the error 'Connection problem or invalid mmi code', instead of the region screen appearing in the dialer.
Anyway around this?
The dual-wifi works fine - its connects to my 2_4ghz and 5Ghz bands simultaneously. Overall Im more than happy with the Android 11 upgrade and would recommend it.
