How to Downgrade from android 5.1.1 to 4.4.2 - Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys , I just updated my honor 6 to android 5.1 and wanted to root it , but its very very dificult to do . I decided to downgrade to 4.4.2 and easily root by kingroot . The problem is hwauei site don't allow me to downlaod the downgrade package b500 . Anyone can upload it here ???? One more thing , after downgrading to b500 , can I downgrade to build b393?? Because I have it downloaded.

Anyone help me please!!!!!

@Soltane_Ghamha2000 is your build official? Mine IS (b510) and I cannot downgrade anymore!! Those b500 downgrade packages only work in beta builds.
This lollipop update is dud. More bloatware, heating up, lag etc.
If you know a way to get back to 4.4.2 (any build) please let me know. This emui 3.1 makes me want to go back to 2.3!

Same here. Would like to downgrade so i can use kingroot and go back to CM11.

Same here. I just installed B532 on my L02 and I have a lot of problems with this rom. I just want to return back to CM11.
Can't we simply install CM11? Will the phone brick? @codeworkx

This wont work. You will end up bricking your device. Dont do this

Understand that lollipop is fundamentally different from KK. So just a fastboot will render your phone bricked. Only way to do it is to use a downgrade package (try phantomath.xyz).

You can download the downgrade package here: http://consumer.huawei.com/ru/support/products/downloads/h60-l4-ru.htm

The downgrade works with local update when i place in in dload. But after downgrading i still have 5.1.1. and EMUI 3.1

after you install 4.4.2 with local update again

Update failure.
What i did:
- Local update "H60-L04C900B521" --> Succesfull
- Local update "H60_L04V100R001C900B500_Firmware_rollback_version_(EMUI3.1 to EMUI3.0)" --> Probaly succesful but after the update i had still EMUI 3.1. B500.
- Local update "H60-L04_EMUI3.0_V100R001C00B370" --> Update failure. Still have B500 rom.
If i get 4.4.2 i can use kingroot and honorTuner to unlock my bootloader, root and flash the phone. On 5.1.1. i'm unable to do it, because my unlock bootloader code will come in 14 days according to Huawei. But even after 14 days i still get the same message by asking for a unlocking code.

This worked for me.

Just download the file for which model u have and install with system recovery
Agreed. But its suggested to update to B130 first as this is stated in huawei official manual on the build number upgradable.
i m B128 user also. I have been gathering lots of info from different version users to make sure the upgrade is perfect. I've read that some users upgrade directly from B128 to B324 which then turn into nightmare and forced to return to kitkat to re-upgrade again by correct sequence. Now that i have upgraded to 5.1.1 following the correct sequence without having any issue and it works like charm!!
So the correct sequence is B128>>B130>>B324. Use the link given by our friend above to download all the files u need

G920f questions...plz help!!!

Okay so I got a g920F on swappa.com and its on 5.1.1. Rooted and twrp 2.8.7.1 or whatever the current is.....anyways is there a way to downgrade to 5.0.2? I know on the g920P there is not so not sure if that's the case here as well.
My 2nd question is, is there a way to upgrade to marshmallow without a pc? I don't own a pc and can't access one on anyway and I'd really like to try mm.
3rd to last question is this: is there a mobile odin like tool I can use or could flashfire be used on the s6 like on the s5? If memory serves me, I used flashfire back when the s6 came out but I could be mistaken.
Final question....does anyone have the 5.1.1 stock firmware for the G920F? I believe mine is the tbu version of whatever the version for UK is....not sure how to check. Or a stock rom I can flash to recieve the mm update. Please n thanks.

So If I brick what should I do? Since no one has a 5.1.1 tar ball or whatever. Would 5.0.2 work? What of a engineering boot loader to revert to 5.0.2?

Help PLS!!! Honor 8 FRD-AL10 came with FRD-L19C636B360 from China - now bricked after

Hi all,
Please help:
I have Honor 8 FRD-AL10 came with FRD-L19C636B360 from China.
After a notification for new update which I started, the phone bricked. Tried eRecovery, but unsuccessful. Couldn't receive the package from the server.
The only thing that worked out a bit was "dload" method with AL00 version from the link with fabric firmware http mega.nz........
But the phone starts to the language and region section and never runs correctly to the desktop. Always rotates about first "start screen".
No other software works out, tried almost everything.
So,
Is this phone been unlocked to be able to install FRD-l19, and then locked again?
Should I unlock it trough huawei site to be able to install again my last version?
What should I do now?
Please help!
I contacted seller for my honor 8 and he sent me this firmware. There are video instructions inside. Didnt work for me though.
https://yadi.sk/d/_2GHOvkr3Num8B
I have exactly the same problem, please share if you find the solution.
It seems that will have to root the phone, but hope somebody with more experience to say

Can you send me link to rollback package? I tried 2 different packages but it didnt work, but there were no 2 files as you said. The thing is that I managed to do a rollback at the beginning but then I installed AL10 update not L19 and I think thats why its not working properly.

But now my phone accepted FRD-AL00C00B160 firmware and can not start to the desktop. Choosing language and region, WiFi connect and when got to the point to take fingerprint for the first time, it turns back to language and region. And nothing happens.
Can anybody help me? Tried almost everything. Also got with DC Unlocker Bootload code and phone doen't allow to unlock the bootloader trought Huawei MultiTool and SRK Tool....

Exactly the same problem. I have been trying to solve this for almost a week now with no luck.
Hy!
I was trying to bring back to life my device, I did manage to get to that point where you are (the startup screen, it does the same for me -repeats itself over and over again), but I could bypass it by
-double press on the fingerprint button brings you to a different screen, it is similar to google now.
-by scrolling down to the bottom there is a google maps app. If you click this it takes you to the app store which is in Chinese, but you can search by the magnifier tab.
-If you download a random Launcher app (I downloaded the launcher 8 or something like this) it allows you to open the app itself after install
-by opening the app it gives you almost full access to your phone
But, my question is: I did manage to enter my Huawei account, it did sign in but if I want to get an unlock code on Huawei's site it says that I need an account that is signed in not longer than 14 days from this device. Any ideas?
+ It feels a little bit fishy to me that the model name is just FRD no numbers or anything.
questions!! @june28dane
-when you applied the roolback method, you stayed in that version? on MM EMUI 4.1 L19C900B131???
-then after you download and install use force update method volumeup+volumedown+power the firmware L19C636B130???
-why can not you use the rollback method directly with version L19C636B130? and thus avoid the step of the L19C900B131 ???

Stuck on EMUI 8.0.0.379 - No new updates

Please I need help, last week I installed EMUI 9.0.1.158 on my MHA-L29 but I wasn't so impressed so I rolled back to 8.0.0.379 (by using HiSuite) and now I changed my mind but can't get to update anymore. No updates show up on System Update, HiSuite or HiCare. I deleted data & cache from System Update, even did a factory reset but nothing changed. How is it possible? I hope you guys can help me. Thank you.
I hv the same issue ,when I received the update notifications, I didn't update immediately and after few days it gone and I never get any notifications .please help.

9.0.1.158 is no longer approved (at least for me). I guess we have to wait until 9.0.1.179 full OTA comes out...
same story, cannot upgrade to A9
will try with FF and modded hisuite, cause I was successful with Honor 10 today upgrading to FW 222. It works, but sometimes says no internet connection. It requires many tries.
Already have new firmware android pie dun give up guys.

You receive the OTA?
I'm stuck on 8.0.0.376, do I need to upgrade via the spoof method to "latest" 8.0.0.xxx THEN try a full/partial 9.0 OTA?
Ive tried partial OTAs from 9.0 that are approved = hisuite says update failed.
Ive tried 1 full OTA from 9.0 that is approved = hisuite downloads passes all ok, phone reboots = verification failed (I assume phone is NOT connecting to internet on eRecovery phase right? but you never know. Since I'm only spoofing on windows not on the router).

New regions for 9.0 on the Mate 9 has been released at the start of June 3rd. In the next week, I guess we'll see who gets it
9.0.1.191(C432) has been approved for installation on FF, so the update should arrive during the coming days/weeks.
9.0.1.191 (C432) is approved for installation, I tried install via the firmware finder eRecovery method but the udpate stuck at downloading 0%

It's quite strange that Middle East variant i.e. C185 has received the update since March and the Europe region is still waiting for the update. Whereas previously it was totally opposite.
Update: After wasting an hour and download the approved 9.0.1.191 via eRecovery from Firmware Finder, the package gave "Package Authentication Failed Error" on 99%.
