Hey guys i have question. I am currently on 24.11.18.lux.reteu.reteu.en.En reteu. I flashed this with a link that was posted on here before the update for 6.0 came to my country. The update that came OTA was 24.41.33 (with the januari patch). I never received this and am wondering if i will still get updates in the future or if I have to keep doing this myself. I am not rooted or anything. I just updated with the link that was posted here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-play/help/marshmallow-ota-uk-t3277756/post64971862#post64971862
So basically:
I flashed from 5.1.1 to 6.0 myself with link posted here through recovery mode.
I now have 24.11.18. (december patch)
Others in my country that just waited have 24.41.33. (januari patch)
What do I do now in order to get updates? Wait and it will come? Or do i have to keep updating myself?
Hope everything is clear. :good: Thanks in advance.

The best to do is flash the 5.1.1 factory image for your model and location. And then updating through the normal way. Not manually
Thanks. I'm not sure how to go about doing that. So updates wont come to my phone anymore OTA? I've read on here that the 6.0.1 update should arrive soon. I'm new to all this and don't want to risk breaking my phone. Maybe it's better to wait? I'm from the Netherlands too btw.

You should have the january security patch, if you dont and dont have an update you need to flash the factory image. If you don't want to brick your phone you shouldnt flash updates manually in the first place.
You can also try this: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24421527759884307 which is the flashable zip for the dutch 6.0 firmware (but you need twrp and unlocked bootloader for that.
But you probably need to download and flash this: https://www.google.com/url?q=https:...sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGTQx60cH6emtbDNwtOZh-3m7Mdww
And follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/guide-fastboot-flashing-factory-t3187750
(doesn't need an unlocked bootoader
Thanks. I think I'll just wait until 6.0.1 arrives here in NL and see if it let's me update too before i try and do all this.
When I was looking at lg-firmwares site, I've founds the newest KDZ which has probably the April security patch because it has been released in 19. 4. 2017. It is Singapore KDZ for ASIA. Is there anyone who has got this KDZ installed and can provide us more info?
The link to the KDZ's site is: https://lg-firmwares.com/download-file/?fileId=9416
Direct link: https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads/downloader.php?fileid=9416&hash=866939f4deb301d0d98d402b41eed7e5
Installed but I dont see any news only april security patch. For more info is very soon. Only error after reboot phone after click is error gone

Are there any bloatware or custom bootlogo etc on it?
No any bloatware, I will testing and always is possible to make rollback☺
can some one give me the initd file from this kdz? pls.
Does anyone have rooted image?

Hi all,
I've had my P9 Lite for about 10 months now and I haven't recieved one system update yet. I've been waiting for the OTA system update for EMUI 5.0 but alas, it hasn't come to my phone and I don't understand why. The phone Android security patch level is 1 June 2016 and that is worrying as well! My Build number is VNS-L31C440B132 and I was looking for a way to update to the latest availble version while also keeping my current phones data. The Updater in the settings always says there is no updates available and i've tried using 'Firmware Finder' as well but the updates failed.
I'd appreciate any help with the matter.
Thanks,
Charlie
Hello
Firmware here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/vns-l31c440b380-t3617778
In 1: maybe you can try the three-button method (dload).
In 2: try to do the update with the pc and HiSuite (update the system).
In 3: you can also test a firmware updater v2 application and hisuite. https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/huawei-p9-p9-plus-firmware-updater-t3435873
In 4: or do the bootloader code request and install recovery twrp for MM and install nougat.
Thanks for the help here, your method worked absolutely fine, I appreciate it. Nice to see a great community here.
Thanks,
Charlie

Hi Barbu,
I found a quick way to do this.
Downloading the updates might take a while so make sure your phone is on charge or charging.
First you want to go to the app store and download Firmware Finder (XDA wont let me post a link because I haven't posted 10 times so you'll have to search.
Then go to Settings > Use proxy for install > Download Addon. An apk will download, install this.
Then go to Firware Finder and click this magnifying glass at the bottom right to refresh. Then look for the update that ends in 'B160' and has 'FullOTA' in the name.
Click on it then > GET AN UPDATE THROUGH PROXY. You will be taken to the Proxy App where you need to follow the instructions on screen.
Then you need to go to your phone settings and click on 'Update'. After it scans and finds a new update you need to click on it and then quick install. While it's installing you might want to go back into your WiFi settings and change proxy to 'None' just in case there is connection issues.
Once that update is installing your going to want to repeat these steps but this time install 'B382 FullOTA'. This should give you EMUI 5.0 with loads of new features now!
It might work by install B382 straight away but it didn't for me.
I hope this helps!
Thanks,
Charlie
Hello, thanks for ur help
U said it didn't works for you but it should work for me huh ?
the problem is that mine is neither b160 nor B382 ... it' an b132... so it's not the appropriate file for my headset, no?
Sincerly, i'm a bit worried about this Update it seems like hack or jealbreak ... don't u think

I can assure you this isn't a "hack" or "jailbreak". Firmware Finder was even developed by members of the XDA community and it's 100% legit. I had the same problem as you Barbu, I was on B132 and wanted the new android 7 update but my phone is also on EE and it wasn't rolled out. All I did was what I detailed in the steps in my post and it worked, and B132, B160 and such are just the version number so installing the B160 will just give you a new firmware update.
Thanks,
Charlie
(Sorry I can't explain it better)
It's ok very clear i'm trying it now ... just assist me
---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------
It's working for the B160 one first so i have to repeatthe same things with the b382 while the b160 is installing ?

No. You need to wait until the update has installed. This might take a while as it has to download then your phone will restart and the update will install.
Thank u very much my friend i will tell u the news once the installation finished ...
last question: why don't install the b382 directly without installing the b160 ?

Just didn't work when I tried it so I thought it's better to be safe.
First, thanks for info and effort.
I did everything you wrote. But after I change proxy server, as it stands in Firmware Finder Proxy, and tap Update, nothing happens. There is no update. Maybe I didn't change proxy in right way. But, I googled it just in case, changed it again, and again there was no update.
One more thing. In Firmware Finder, there is firmware for VNS-L31C440B132 in the list. So, I did not chose "B160" and "B382" like you said. Then, I did as you instructed, and there was no update.
Any help?
Thanks.

First off, is there any other firmware in the list or just the one ending in B132?
And did you:
Click Get an update through proxy and they get taken to the proxy finder app where it gives you instructions on what to do to your WiFi settings? Because after you have done that go straight to settings > update > then check for a new update. A new update should appear in red.
If this didn't help just give me another shout and I'll try and help more. If not, there is some firmware finder threads on here as it was developed by person/peoples from the XDA community.
Thanks,
Charlie

I did it!
This time I followed your instructions, first B160 then B382 but not via GET AN UPDATE THROUGH PROXY, but GET AN UPDATE THROUGH DNS (BETA). And it all worked for me.
Regarding your instruction, I couldn't get an update for B132, no matter what I tried and how I changed proxy server.
In the list there are 8 firmwares. FullOTA B383/382/380/370/160/132 and OTA B160/132. Then I tried B132 FullOTA through dns (beta), I got an update, everything went well, but when I checked About phone, there was no change, Emui and android version did not change. Then I tried with B132 OTA, but it failed during installation, twice. Finally, I tried B160 FullOTA first, then B382 FullOTA through dns, and now my phone is on Android 7.0 and EMUI 5.0.
Through dns is just 3 taps, then check update and that's all.
Guys, give it a try both ways, hope you will succeed.
Charlie, thank you for information.
Hello Charlie
I followed ur méthod step by step ans it works with me even if it took thé entité day about 10h....
Now i'm runing on nugat 7 thank u very much for ur help ... But I think once Android 8 rolled out WE have to do the same thing, didn't it ?
All in all i'm satisfied ... It was high time ?
Is it still possible to upgrade VNS-L31C440B132 using FF?

Like many other disappointed EE customers who never got a single OTA update for their VNS-L31C440B132 I would like to use this method as it looks pretty straightforward (no unlocking bootloaders/rooting etc) but I may be too late to the party:crying:. Without showing all the details, FF currently lists the following available firmware for my device:
VNS-L31C440B383, VNS-L31C440B382, VNS-L31C440B380, VNS-L31C440B160, VNS-L31C440B160, VNS-L31C440B132, VNS-L31C440B132
The only ones that are approved are both the B132s which are OTAs and there is no longer a B160 that is a full OTA update. They are just (incremental?) OTAs. FullOTAs now start from B380. Perhaps the files I need are no longer available. Is it time to give up, or am I missing something here? Fortunately I now also have a Lenovo P2 with global ROM which DOES get OTA updates!
**Update**. I emailed DEV and they think Huawei may have moved some firmwares but that the missing ones may re-appear in a future scan of their servers, so I will periodically check to see.
Cheers

Last night i managed to update my phone from VNS-L31C440B132 to VNS-L31C440B383 using the method in this thread. I installed the B160 OTA update first through firmware finder via proxy. It listed it as only 740mb (ish) but when i actually installed it through system update it downladed 1.74GB (ish) which installed fine. I then updated to B383 through firmware finder via proxy again which worked fine too. Give it a go it worked for me

Oh great. Thanks. Did you bother with either of the B132s dated 2016.07.14 first (perhaps they are patches for B132) or did you just start with B160? There are 2 B160s dated 2016.10.16 (753MB and 166MB). Did you do a "Check Firmware Access" to see if it was approved? It isn't for me, but perhaps it works anyway. I wonder why the one listed for you was 740MB (perhaps the sizes aren't that accurate)? Are you then saying you missed out B380 and B382 full OTAs and went straight to B383? Sods law is B383 isn't showing up right now, but hopefuly it'll return soon lol

I didnt bother with any B132 updates. I went for the biggest B160 update which probably was 753MB but when i actually went through the update app it downloaded 1.74GB. I didnt check firmware access. After it had updated to B160 i installed B382. I mistyped B383 earlier sorry. I am now running B382 and everything is working great

Thanks for coming back on this. Unfortunately I haven't been able to install B160 yet. After selecting the 753MB B160 OTA I selected "get an update through proxy" and modified the network settings. I returned to the FF app and selected "download". I am presented with the following list of selectable options: 1)update.zip ee/gb/ 2)update_data_full_ee_gb.ziphw/default/ 3)update_data_full_hw/default.zip hw/eu 4)update_data_full_hw_eu.zip hw/normal 5)update_data_full_hw_normal.zip
I selected just option 1 and ok and the download started. I left the network settings as localhost and 8080 until after the download completed. I ended up with a file called update.zip size 1.69GB in folder Local>Internal storage>HWFF>98030> but have no idea what to do next to complete the install. Should an install option have appeared at the end of the download or more options appear in the FF app settings? Huawei Updater ("Check for updates") doesn't see it. I don't have an external SD card but don't see why it would need one. Not sure how to proceed, but at least I haven't broken anything
I was wondering how many and what updates everyone else have received and when?
I'm currently on the April 2017 security update and I received that in early June I believe.
I'm hoping Huawei can at least be excused by the fact they're working on an Oreo update instead of doing security updates and bug fixes (highly doubtful though). Mine is a Nordic unlocked model by the way.
So are anyone else receiving security updates?
Not here, in Spain. The thing is, I don't see any security patch coming till next EMUI version arrives, hopefully before the end of the year.
Not sure if this helps, but I found some way opening another security gap
As far as I figured out, you need 3 files for the update to work:
update.zip
update_full.zip (or update_full_WAS-XXX_hw_eu.zip)
update_data_full_public.zip
I am sure, FirmwareFinder or any other tool might come in handy doing so. The next thing you'd need would be TWRP which is available as some beta build somewhere on this forum. Then you'd have to unlock the bootloader and root your device to get TWRP on it. I'd recommend doing some research on this as you might have to get some code for "fastboot oem unlock"...
Flash the files listed above the way they're listed.
I must admit, I'd given up looking for, and any hope of ever getting another P8 update - it was on GRA_L09C432B398.
But, turned it on this morning to see it demanding a restart after having automatically downloaded and installed an OTA update to GRA_L09C432B520.
Rebooted and following an anxious wait (whilst it optimised the memory), there it was: See attachment
Afterwards, I checked Firmware Finder, but nothing listed there after …B399.
Android patch level is only to 1st Jan 2018
Hi
On this link you will find the downloadable update B520 and who has experience.
mobilarena.hu/tema/re_huawei_p8_nekik_nem_8/friss.html
Is there anyone who have downloaded and tested it ? Is there other "sure" download source ?
Hey,
if you are running B399 you have t go back to the last official version which is B398 first.
B399 was never officially released.
After reboot into B398, the regular OTA update should work and bring you the option to download B520. As far as I can see, there is still no FULL Update available for B520.
For me this worked wthout issues. B520 is running as good as B399.
Yes, kudos to Huawei for releasing this security update on a relatively old machine.
It makes me more inclined to trust them in the future.
B520 seems to work well for me.

Hello,
What's the process to rollback to the B398 from the B399 ? I want to install the B520 too, but i don't want to make a mistake.
