Hello guys,
I've had a word with AT&T and they don't really have any idea on when exactly they send a OTA for Android Marshmallow as Samsung have not sent the update to them yet. So I would like to download Android 6.0 from T mobile and update it on my SM-G928A, can I do that? Do I need to root for that? Later will I get OTAs after installation?
As I'm in India now, using Indian Carrier, the carrier tech girl asked me to check with my network provider for Marshmallow update for this US version mobile and get it updated, will it at all happen? I really doubt. I need your help guys.
Thanks in advance,
LittleLeto

Ok so your saying that U.S.A. will definitely have the update even though Huawei says that they do not support in the USA for this phone? I need to be sure because I have already decided what my replacement is if I can't upgrade this and will be returning in a couple of days.
Unread count icon badge is not showing anymore in my mate 8 64 GB
Any help how to make the unread notification badge work again on my mate 8 using stock room
Thanks

I'm not trying to be an a** about this, but, I'd really like someone to answer this question.
What difference, in "real world use" does it matter if you have 6.0 or 7.0?
I ran my mate2, on 4.3 for well over a year before they released the 5.x update, and, had they not given an easy way back, I probably
would have stayed on it. It was just THAT stable. Huawei's 5.x was very stable on my Mate2, and I kept it 100% stock, until September
when I upgraded to the Mate8. 6.x on my version of the mate8, is just flat out stable (Nova Launcher Prime). I'm not a gamer, but I
do a ton of phone (2000 minutes/month), lots of web based work related things, streaming, Mp3's, email, text, photos (Camera FV-5).
I use to be a flash-a-holic back in my PDA phone days, but, phones to me, are "tools". I just pick them up and use them. The version
of software isn't important as is stability. As long as my apps are supported, the version to me, personally, makes no difference.
Don't get me wrong...you guys that flash, tweak, and run the bleeding edge stuff, eventually makes it better for everyone, but, I just
can't wrap my head around being pissed off if a phone, 6-12 months old, as long as it works as built won't get a newer version of
Android. I can see minor builds, patches, but going from say a 5.0 to 6.0 or 6.0 to 7.0 is a "major" update and perhaps the hardware,
as built by a vendor won't support it, but if your phone works, what's the big deal?
Maybe I've been out of the flashing all the time thing to figure it out.

Does anyone know when the Android update for the Huawei Mate 8 in America will come or is there a way to update the OS through flashing since update isn't supported in America. Thank you.
The last OTA update on L29, if I remember correctly, was B180. The B320 was done via the dload method. I suppose you could use the same even if Huawei do not push a Nugat OTA update in America. But as pointed out, do wait for the official as the current beta is buggy.
Sorry for asking.
As you all know , Chinese verson of smartphones are usually come with some "Useful Apps" like Baidu or QQ
But I don't need them and I want to find a way to delete them for more space to my phone.
After searching I found a lot but they're all working in Android 5.1.1 .
I've already uploaded my device to the latest verson.
So, do any of you have a way to root the Samsung Galaxy A7(2016),aka SM-A7100 (Chinese verson)under Android 6.0.1?
And if anyone can teach me how to flash a Hongkong ver. rom to the phone , it' be much better.
Thanks.
My mobile phone is XT1581 with android 7.0.
I realy wants to know if there is a offical way to update it to android 8.0?
I bought it in China but I have update it to US version 7.0.
Thanks!
the 18 months support on this models is off now, if one miracle succed, is going to have Android 7 or 8 AOSP/LineageOS ported, but even this two options becomes a dream (no android developer was interested in our phones), we are stock in 6.0/7.0 OEM
Hi guys,
Really dumb question.
I currently have an Exynos S7 edge which is running the latest version of firmware 8.0. I wanted to downgrade the firmware to do location spoofing (just to test things for fun) but latest security patch etc. means I cant do it, if I'm correct? I would need to go back to a early android 7.0 2017 firmware version & I don't think this is possible, ODIN hasn't worked so I'm guessing not?
Anyway I need Google play services to be a really old version like 12.4ish I think. Currently on 17.something.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a ROM or firmware I can use to do this?
Thanks
