P8lite ALE-L21C113B130 Stock Firmware?

Hello everyone.
well as my Title says i'm looking for a firmware for my ALE-L21C113B130 running 5.0.1 with EMUI 3.1.
Long story.
i've rooted my phone (as i use to do with all my android devices)
and i got everything right got Xposed working and everything but noticed few things, like performance, and lag here and there on other hand the models of Xposed that i use are not working with this phone so wanted to get my stock firmware just with root and twrp but forgot to do a backup before doing all this, now the only way out is to get my stock firmware and install it and then upgrade to 6.0 for batter performance.
in this whole process i bricked my phone few times and was able to get it working back again. (only while trying to get back to stock tho not rooting and installing twrp or Xposed).
so please if you have the firmware or you can provide a link or any kind of help getting back to stock will be much appreciated even a way to install 6.0 or any other version.

Huawei P8Lite
Build Number : ALE-L21C113B130

[Guide] Online Firmware finder

Hello there,
Since a lot of users are using Huawei firmware finder app on desktop or phone and it's relatively slow I guess this link should be posted for quick search instead.
This is a Russian site, but you can translate it or not since it's really easy to navigate and it finds all results pretty fast.
You can even search Model number + carrier at the same time( for example FRD-L09C10) and it will filter only those results with changelog and download link. It's always up-to-date and faster than desktop or mobile app of Huawei firmware finder.
Link: http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/база-найденных-прошивок/
PS: I'm not the owner of this site.
You can also use this address format if you don't speak Russian:
http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=FRD-L04C567
Replace FRD-L04C567 with the model you're looking for.
Though your link is in a prettier format.

I couldn't get it to work it said software incompatible with device or something when trying to install not sure if I did it correctly or not
Also tried the Huawei software finder thing and that didn't work so I guess I'll just wait

All the information and links are from Huawei servers with links. So probably 3 button method is not working then.

Thank you ... work 100% ... Finally I updated to Android 7 (B360)

Fed up with lack of updates

I have had a Mate 9 since early January and had about 2 updates. It's on MHA-l29c636b158 with February security updates.
I have an Aussie Telstra SIM and a Singapore SIM in it.
Why are updates (especially security updates) so slow with Huawei? Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance,
MHA-l29C636B172 is official updates.
Just update man there are plenty of guides here on how to manually flash. The software is there. Just gotta flash it.

I tried the firmware finder trick using proxy and pushing update to phone then removing proxy and downloading but getting authentication issues, tried again but this time just before authentication, I changed to data and out off WiFi still authentication problems.
Same for B180 and B181.
I'm on C636B172 BTW
I think C636 is the worst to get updates

QJ3 Download

Well, I went to wipe and reset my phone after I had updated the QJ3 update. Samfirm only has QH1. So now im stuck with a recovery bootloop since I can't install the QH1. I can't seem to find QJ3 anywhere on here or google. Samfirm isn't updated yet (which is absolutely stupid that they wouldn't have it up to date for this very problem). Does anyone know if it's been posted anywhere else? OR maybe a fix? Thanks!
combinefile.com or gsm-firmware.com both have the files listed. Daily pass is $3. Never used them, so I have no idea if it will work.
Here is what it found--Click here
Appears to have a few downloads too.
If you try it out, you should download and share the G935p and G930p files.

You could try an update.zip, but if you've got the American model, you should be able to OTA update via the system settings.

Yeah it appears to be u.k model I thought online it said was an USA model thanks for letting me know. Phone is actually quiet good besides being on mm.
There is a way to update apparently you have to flash a Spanish version than a Russian version of noughat 7.1

I did it! I am at work now, but later (in ~9-10 hours) I will write the instructions with the links to specific update files. I have updated the UK (carphone) 6.0 version to global (russian?) 7.1.1 .
