From Emui 5.0 to Lineage OS 13?

Hi guys. I've a Huawei Nova L01 with CAN-L01C02B331 and CUSTC02D002 firmware. I want to try the lineageos build published by grarak on his twitter account but some weeks ago i risked to brick the phone (i was already on nougat). Anyone know a safe and effective guide for that? Thanks to those who will help me

You can talk with Grarak on Twitter and ask him how to solve this issue and if it's possible to go back on marshmallow from emui5

already done so, zero response

Asked huawei for rollback link
Same problem here, so I emailed huawei for a rollback link. I'm on NRD90M so normally should be able to revert to original MM... No response so far...

And how can we go back to mm, is there a tool to do it? I have tried to flash mm but I'm not able because system and cust partition are bigger on stock mm firmwares, so once installed nougat we are not able to go back on mm. Basically they have to release a tool witch will automatically repartition system and cut partitions or release a mm firmware with smaller partitions....Oh sorry they didn't respond, I'm curious about they're response, if they will ever replay to you e-mail.

Well, thats whats the NRD90M build is made for, so you would be able to return to MM Its a build that should give the opportunity to have a rollback... However, what I have learned is that you need a specific updatefile to do this... This updatefile, does not exist (?)

Official Marshmallow update for Lenovo vibe k5 plus(Relised Brzail only)

Lenovo has relised Marshmallow update for Lenovo vibe k5 plus but only aveliable in Brazil. My question is how I can update my phone. As you have already probably guessed I don't live in Brazile thus manual update is the only way but how? As far as my knowledge goes phone shouldn't be rooted because we are talking about official rom, but where I can download it? And how to set phone to update from SD card or internal memory and not via wi-fi?(couldnt find that option on my phone, I found it easily on other phones but on k5 plus it is simply not there)Also this is not breaking my varantee right?
And yeah I am kinda newbee here so step by step quide would be nice.
Thank you in advance for your support.

But this firmware doesn't have all languages.

But this is for rooted device. Why is root needed if installing official rom?

Hello. I installed the update from the link above without rooting.
Just installed the latest TWRP for K5 plus (available in this forum), then used the recovery image as stated in the link above.
Hope this helps

You can also download the ROM on @Shreps website (https://moto.shreps.fr) :
- Lenovo Vibe K5
- ROM
- Stock firmware
- choose the Zip with "S105" in the name
And then flash it with qfil (you can find guides on this forum).
Just one thing : I'm not sure that you will keep your warranty with this as this version is not for Europe or Asia but only South America I think. You will need to reflash an older version if you want to use your warranty.

My mistake, the S105 update is NOT the Marshmallow update, sorry.

I have read in russian forum that flashing eu version with xt1662 rom would lose imei. How can i known flashing xt1662 with xt1663 rom will not be wrong?
I buyed my phone on ebay. Model is xt1662 but some system apps version is 6.0_xt1663_s096..... seller told me is a Chinese version but prepare to overseas... what do you think? Do you have the same and tried it?
Some Motorola forums reports some bugs in Nougat, so i found xt1663_usr_s356_1706211351_mp7V1-ROW and i want to flash it but I'm afraid of brick my phone.
Thank you so much.

IMEI issue
I live in Canada, I got this xt1662 from China. No luck with installing google play at all. The xt1663 rom works for the xt1662 phone, however, the IMEI is not working at all. I cannot make phone call at all.

I have the same problem, could you solve it?

Apparently it's a matter of luck ... My moto M that came from China does not have any problems with the iMEI. I'm sorry if you had problems, I'm going to remove this software from here :/

Don't remove it if it works for the XT1663, just remove the XT1662 par from the title and the posts.

Please don´t do it! - The Nougat 7.0 firmware for XT1663 (xt1663_usr_s356_1706211351_mp7V1-ROW) works very well on the XT1662! Including mobile phone network connection.
After flashing firmware the only thing is, your have to write back your IMEI´s to the NVRAM. Use the tool maui meta & the right modemdb file to find the right address pointers (= nvram database). A generic MTK 6750 modem database file are perfect, because the xt1662 & xt1663 uses a higher clock variant of thr cpu (MTK6755). Please take time and search for the right quides. It is very easy to do it
If you do not know your two IMEI´s please have a look on the shipping package. There is a label with your IMEI´s.
Just my 2 cents
Best regards.

Moto M brick
Hello, try to flash this rom with the flashtool and now it does not turn on, either in fastboot mode but the pc does recognize it although it does not install the rom correctly.
Please help me to relive it.
Thank you

ALE-UL00 with other roms

Hi,
My brother bought a P8 Lite from Aliexpress but he received the ALE-AL00 version.
All updates have been made.
But there are always Chinese characters in the interface and the internet search returns only Chinese, no Gapps either.
Is it possible to install a European version of the roms on the UL00?
Can you help me do it?
Thank you.

I'll sugested you something more radical than RootingPro-18
Flash ALE-L21C432B052 Dual Sim Transition, but this require some steps before, you can find this well detailed in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/huawei-p8-lite-unlock-bootloader-t3490856
Attention, do it at your own risk.

Thanks but are you sure i can flash my ALE-UL00 with ALE-L21xxxx roms ??
My ALE-UL00 is dual sim and bootloader is unlock
What is MM in "if you have MM already" ?
I need download ALE-L21C432B618 or ALE-L21C432B170 ?
Thanks a lot

Could that be some kind of OTA update (the ones to rename update.zip and flash on top of version 3.5.389)?

The post says this version is QPST compatible.
Even on 4pda ZUI 4.0.186 QPST flashable version exists.
I thought QPST and QFIL were basically same, are they different?
If you have it downloaded, could you please share it on GDrive or any other way?

A QPST rom is for using with QFIL
I never used ZUI and do any OTA updates on it, but I downloaded the rom, open the zip file and inside is the normal structure for a regular rom (META-INF, boot.img, system.img files)
I didn't know that there's a QPST version of ZUI 4.0.186 for use with QFIL (downloading rn to check out)
As for the ZUI 4.0.199, sorry I deleted it after finding out it's not qpst version
Edit: the ZUI 4.0.186 qpst I found is an older version patched up with the newest boot.img and system.img files from the newer ota release
The newest official ZUI QPST version I can find is 3.5.386, and it's from an official lenovo cdn server

Hey thanks. So I guess OTA can be used to upgrade to the latest 4.0.199 after flashing the 3.5.386 QPST version.
I am currently on the ZUI 2.5 (Nougat) Indian version, and as far as I understand, to make Oreo and Pie Custom ROMs work properly on my phone I need to upgrade to the latest ZUI to enable the treble support due to the new bootloader and other partitions. Please correct me if I am wrong.
