can't update firmware, need help. - Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers

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?

Honor India - RAM Management and VoLTE bug fix update (B370)

Honor India released an update today for its KIW-L22 - B370.
Link - http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G79/g0/v67983/f1/full/update.zip
This update consists of
1. VoLTE bug fixes
2. RAM Management improvements.
3. Android Security Patches
How to update?
Prerequisites: You should be in the B360 in order to update this one.
Note: B360 was causing the bootloop for custom ROM. Since this is built over that this might also cause Bootloop.
So have a TWRP backup before updating to this one too.
This update can be flashed via TWRP. Forced update won't work.
You can update by following steps by @gopinaidu77 here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/how-to/guide-force-installing-stock-ota-t3502874
But you need to be Rooted for it.
i havent got any update, checked right now..
anyway i downloaded the zip given, i dont understand y is that a flashable zip? it contains several patches and an update.app file..
is it twrp flashable too??
and even after updating, my build number is still b360

Place the update.zip in dload and flash it.
So that patches get applied. Sorry for that. Little bit sleepy.
Thanks for noting it... Updated the post...

That's way update.zip doesn't work. Just open file manager, go to internal storage and open HwOUC folder and tell me the folder name inside HwOUC folder or give a screenshot

I have tried with update.zip earlier in my Honor 7. So Update.zip works as per my knowledge.
However I'm not sure, as I have not tried it for this one Since I don't have KIW-L22.
I have KIW-L23 which is stuck at EMUI 3.

From dload folder update.zip works only on emui 3 not in emui 4 or 4.1. So waiting for update notification

Because the file doesn't flashed. So b370 patches are not applied.
@vsriram92 , please check, the update package is not working,,
though update process completes, it actually does nothing, even after trying 3 times, my build number hasnt changed from b360

I don't have Honor 5X (Kiw-L22) to verify it. You must wait for the OTA.
You can flash this update via TWRP.
does this work for non root users?

Nope. There is no way to update locally as in EMUi 3. So without ROOT, you can't.

Twrp 3.1.1.0, install b380 http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...1/full/VNS-L31_hw_eu/update_VNS-L31_hw_eu.zip OTA-MF
reboot.
Removes twitter because there is a patch in b382 it bug, we reinstall it after with play store.
Install http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...2/full/VNS-L31_hw_eu/update_VNS-L31_hw_eu.zip OTA-MF

Reinstalls twitter, goes to phone settings l31c432b382.

Hello
It is a shame that the device only takes the update by dload card sd.
Do you think that if we change apk hwouc
Ex: P10, could our device do this?

NRD90M test-keys

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
Regards

[WORKING] Information for users that want to install B121 (EU) firmware

As many people asked Huawei if we can install the B121 first and official firmware that was released to Honor 7, ive figured out how to do that becuase every one thought that you just only need that rollback package to "enter" Android 5.0, well it doesnt work like that becuase Huawei said that you need to give youre device to youre local retailer in order to install the first and official firmware, but ive figured it out how it works:
1*.)If you rollback from B396 you will be downgraded to version B300, as you see thats not B121, thats a must if you want to enter step 2, SO
2.)you have to download the B121 firmware: http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/02/download-honor-7-b121-lollipop-emui-3-1-firmware-europe/
3.)then from that B300 firmware that youre using create that dload folder on youre Honor 7 and paste the update.app file (B121) into that folder
4.) hold power,plus,minus volume key the honor logo will appear !!!KEEP PRESSING!!! when this emui logo will appear "veryfing update info" you just wait
5.)Viola you have a B121 system
*Ive tried to install from B396 firmware down to B121 it did not work idk if Huawei is blocking something cause it keeps bootlooping or I try like the 3rd time it starts installing something but then an error appers maybe you can just and ONLY install Android 5.0 (B121) firmware from B300.
*I flashed my device with TWRP repacked the (B121) firmware with Huawei update extractor so that i could grab the recovery.img file to flash with Android SDK in order to install B121 it didnt work
*reflashed the B396 recovery with Android SDK in order to install B121 it also didnt work
*WARNING* You are doing it at youre own risk, I am not responsible for any damages due to bricked phones or broken ones
*REMEMBER* Doing this procedure you have to backup youre pictures/files to computer or use HiSuite.
