Hi guys, I finally managed to find a functional and safe method to return to stable version Lollipop B521 by Beta B805 Marshmellow for our honor 6 European L04
First download the Downgrade package from HERE
Download Lollipop B521 from the site hihonor.
PART 1 Extract the downgrade package and put the Update.app in sdcard/dload .
PART 2 we go to the dialer and type *#*#2846579#*#* automatically you'll end up in a secret menu, select 4. Update Software-> Update sdcard.
Your phone will reboot, and will begin to install the downgrade, wait until it sprouts, "upgrade failed" Quiet is normal ...
PART 3 Once restarted the phone we copy in sdcard/dload The Update.app of the Lollipop B521 and repeat the Part 2.
At the end of the update get version Lollipop!
Recommend a factory reset after starting lollipop.:good:

Strangely in the initial update prompt (which I don't have a screenshot of unfortunately, so if someone has an XT1092 and can corroborate it would be much appreciated) it says Android 6.0.1 and not security update, but the Android version remains at 6.0 and by all accounts remains 6.0. The new emoji aren't supported either. Back in Lollipop I also got an update that says Android 5.0.2 but the version stayed at 5.0 after the update. Anyways, this update is 15MB and takes around 20 minutes to install, contrary to what Motorola says.
Also, really Motorola? MAY?! I'd be expecting you to roll out the QuadRooter (August/September) patch by now.
Hi,
thnx for the info.
Any suggestions if anyone is making update zip for twrp installation?

Hi, it downloaded the 15Mb update when I came back home. Do I lose root if I update ?

I think these official updates fail if you are rooted.... but if it succeeds i don't know if you retain root.
Again the RetGB variant being overlooked apparently. Spanish version got it and British version nothing...
Do anyone have some changelog for this security update? Does it fix Bluetooth issues (sometimes not routing audio via BT when connected to Nokia car kit)?

I was surprised and exited that there was an update to 6.0.1 for my XT1092, which would fix the bluetooth BLE issue. No screenshot unfortunately, but I clearly remember it stating "6.0.1", not just a security upgrade.
I've contacted Motorola UK support though their email (sic) contact form with below message:
Hello
This weekend I got a prompt on my phone (model XT1092) to upgrade to android 6.0.1.
I was happy about this upgrade because it solves a bug that prevented me from using bluetooth tracking devices [1].
However, after the upgrade the android version mentioned in the phone settings is still 6.0 and not "6.0.1" as expected. The only change I notice is that the "security patch" level is now May 1 2016.
Please confirm which version is actually is and/or if the specific bluetooth low-energy fix mentioned in link [1] is included.
Thanks

[1] URL can't link to in this forum, but search for "tileapp 6.0.1" in google
No OTA when rooted.
My MOTOX is rooted and has TWRP, so no OTA possible.
Any chance of this upgrade being downloadable somewhere alreadY?

I can confirm that notification says "New version: 24.201.3.en.EU" and "Android 6.0.1, Marshmallow".
OK, in OP there is a screenshot with 6.0 still. So no go for BT patch I think...
Screenshot Android 6.0.1 promt
They instead labeled this as the 6.0.1 update.
I tried to inform Motorola (lenovo) about it but it seems that it didn't came through, it was pretty hilarious:
Initial mail:
Subject: Software update labeled wrong
Dear Motorola,
This morning I received an software update saying that it would update my phone to Android 6.0.1 . This was not the case, it was merely the may security update (those are important to, don't get me wrong).
Response:
Dear Customer,
Thank you for contacting Motorola.
It is an official update form the Motorola end.So please update your device.
Me:
I did perform the update on my device, that was not my question/problem.
I meant to say that the update said it was 6.0.1 but it isn't. It updates the device to a new security patch, not form 6.0 to 6.0.1. This was probably not the intention (to say that it would update to 6.0.1) and I tried to attend you on this mistake.
Second response:
Dear Customer,
Thank you for contacting Motorola.
After updating the security patch update you will receive the official update of 6.0.1
And then I gave up on the matter, it would have been pointless to go on.

Yeah, Motorola might just as well be Chinese now.
maybe this helps someone
I got this OTA update although I had root and TWRP. But to do a successful update I had to fully unroot in SuperSU and flash the stock recovery.img and the stock boot.img.
But before unrooting I copied the automatically downloaded update file from the /cache directory to my normal download directory, so I could reach it from the stock recovery menu. Therefore you need a root file explorer.
I than flashed the OTA update manually from the stock recovery using this instructions from reddit (but had to also flash boot.img as mentioned before):
4. Reboot into the bootloader, and then reflash stock recovery (download mentioned in step 1) with the command
"fastboot flash recovery 6.0_recovery.img"
5. Then reboot into recovery. From here, it will say "no command". Hold the power button and press the volume up key, then select apply patch from SD and choose the OTA you put on your internal memory. If all your system files are stock then this should run smoothly, if not, you might get a status error 7 and it will tell you which files are not stock. If you can, try to change them, but otherwise, you would need to download the stock files for 6.0 (you can also get them on the same link I suggested to get the stock recovery in step 1) and reflash everything to stock

After updating and checking that everything is fine I rooted again with TRWP, SuperSU-beta and this "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu" command.
As I cannot post links, you find the original instruction I used when you click on the first link after you googled "How To Root Moto G4 on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow androidcustomrom1"
The normal SuperSu without this SYSTEMLESS command did not work in my case.
Hope I could help somebody

(if the link is not working, you have to add https and www)
The file is called Blur_Version.24.11.18.victara_retde.retdeall.en.DE.zip so I think It's made for an update from 24.11.18 to 24.201.3

May you tell the name of the post after searching "How To Root Moto G4 on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow androidcustomrom1" ?
or some clues,
smthg plz ?
I suppose this is for rooting again
I'm looking for the stock recovery.img and the stock boot.img.
May you tell what to search to obtain them plz ?
Thx
You can find the recovery.img and boot.img in any stock firmware.
I used one from this site because it had the same version as mine:
androidsage.com/2016/02/09/install-official-marshmallow-ota-for-moto-x-android-6-0-ota-capture/
When you google for "blur_version.24.11.18" (or the version you need) you will find a lot of firmwares to download.
You are right, the other post is just for rooting again, after you updated
OK, thx :good:
Don't know why it took so long for you guys in Europe, but here in Brazil we've been using the may security patch since, errr... may! Hahahaha

Hello
So I wanted to my phone start over from begining, so I downloaded offical B161 rom, update it to B371 via offical EMUI updater, but I land on "NRD90M test-keys" every fuc**** time, I installed B161, B151... Everywhere I get this dumb ass update, which BTW my mom (has same phone) didn't get and now she's officaly on B381... Any ideas how to skip or whatever this build, so my B161 will update normaly to normal android...? Btw that "NRD90M test-keys" doesn't have anything as offical update, updater is missing, half of the apps is missing, update is only 1.2GB so I'm predicting that DATA-FULL is missing, but still can't update after flashing data full, can't find any updates, I just want my phone to go to normal updating... Btw I tried flashing B381 directy, but it doesn't want to do it, I did flashed OEM-INFO via TWRP, but I'm still getting error with packahe... I downloaded package via Frimware Finder, from original update.huawei...
Thanks for all the help, I appreciate it

i have a problem with updating my firmware on my mediapad M3.
i have downloaded the firmware with Firmware finder on the device, and i find BTV-W09C100B307 FullOTA-MF. firmware finder says i should be able to install it.
i copied the files to dload after i downloaded the files and restart, but it just say: "Software install failed". am i doing something wrong?
my unit has BTW-W09C100B302, but im fairly certain i have installed BTW-W09C100B303 but it is not displaying that, i have security patch 6 now 2017, b302 should not have that. i wonder if i could find B304 and B306 i could use incremental OTAs, with firmwarefinder i can DL B305 and B307, but i cant find b304 or b306, unless those don't exists?

Hello,
Recently a Huawei P9 lite VNS-L21 came into my hands. I experimented a bit with unofficial ROMs but eventually flashed the official back. I had flashed an earlier version, ending in 380 I believe, but because the phone attempted to upgrade to the next incremental update (say, -382) I decided to upgrade myself to the latest supported version (506). I used Firmware Finder to find the firmware and downloaded it to SD card.
Upgrade succeeded - since I had left TWRP recovery in the phone, I used the HuRUpdater which worked flawlessly.
The only small issue is that following this update, a red message is displayed on boot saying the device has failed verification.
Any way to solve this?

Hello,
my doubt is that you flashed a different firmware version from the one you had, thus corrupting the device's oem file. Could you post which was the latest complete firmware without this problem and the last one you downloaded and flashed? ( ex. L21CxxxB382 & LxxCxxxB506 ).
Let me know this info ...
Hi,
I went from l21c432b380 to l21c432b506 during this process. Stock OEM file was flashed before the -380 upgrade (no errors existed, the 380 upgrade followed a flash of -370).
I'm not sure why this is happening - I mean, both firmwares were from the firmware finder app... Weird, to say the least.

Yep, you used correct file but anyhow the firmware has been corrupted.
I think you have some ways to solve...
1 - if you have stock recovery, reboot into it and
download and flash the same latest firmware.
If you do not have it, you can extract (with huawei update extractor) it
(should be recovery1.img) from B506 firmware (update.zip) you already got,
then can be flashed via fastboot commands.
2 - Flash a previous or B380 firmware via HuRUpdater, then
update to latest via Firmware Finder with dns/vpn method.
3 - Repeat the whole job you done with B506 firmware. (via HuRupdater)
4 - Reboot recovery, reflash L21OEMinfo file, dual sim one, then the latest firmware again...
P.S.: method 1, 2, 4 will re-lock the bootloader, no problem if still you got the code...
Beware method 4, after you flash the oeminfo file do not shout down, reboot to bootloader
and unlock it again with the code. Device will reboot into twrp, then flash B506 firmware.
Good luck and let the community know..
