What happened to Lollipop v. 326? - Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Having upgraded my MT7-TL10 to Lollipop version xxxB324, a couple of weeks back I spotted B326 on the Huawei download site and upgraded to that. For various reasons I want to carry out a factory reset and reinstall the firmware but B326 is now nowhere to be found on the Huawei site. Does anyone know what happened to it?

Thanks Prof1977. That's the one. So why is nobody discussing it on this forum. Is it for a very limited region or something?

Its for south africa

Huawei is going to release stable marshmallow version so they are removing the lollipop versions from the site

Ah, in that case I'll stick to 324. Certainly something is eating my battery like there's no tomorrow so I need to avoid any unnecessary complications.

[Q] Updating to Lollipop

Hey guys
My friend just bought a new Huawei Mate 7 Gold yesterday and I checked the Android version and it says 4.4.2 Kit-Kat. He'd like to update it to Lollipop and since I have been doing such things for years on Samsung and HTC devices I thought I should help him out by checking the forum first. I found a helpful article about updating it to Lollipop OTA, however it is in German and the translation is terrible, so can anyone point me in the right direction?
As I said, the device is brand new and still has 4.4.2 unmodified Kit-Kat on it.
This is the article I am talking about: http://www.huaweiblog.de/huawei/huawei-mate-7-lollipop-update-download/
Thanks guys!
There's a thread dedicated to this in the general section
Thanks for you reply and for pointing me out to the right thread. From what I've read, it seems as though the Lollipop update is quite unstable nowadays and I should hold off till it's official, correct? I don't want my friend to go through a hassle because of it since he is not very tech-savvy.

I have installed lollipop 5.1.1 beta and its quite good but there's still many bugs. Maybe it is better to wait the official release.
I agree. If your friend is not tech savvy, hold first and wait for official release
It's usable as a daily driver, but no, not as stable as 4.4.2.
Generic overview:
-random reboots, not extremely frequent but they happen.
-some memory issues compared to 4.4.2
-a bit less battery
-some options not present
Hi, someone knows when will be release the official version of lollipop? No betas

Nope, and tbh i'm not extremely eager to run lollipop on most phones right now... Google screwed up pretty bad on this major version.

I second that. While material design is nice to look at, the memory leak and battery drain are causing issues in some lollipop phones
hi,I tried alot roms but can not install them,device is mate 7 2gb ,MT7-L09 and rom is B137SP11,I think this rom is developed from any rom,by the way official huawei site in which rom avaible this one did not install too.I have another problem when I use ussd codes not change tr expression in area codes,may be it will occur from tr expression,I buy it from TURKEY I think it will not give permission to set new rom on it?thanks

Update to Lollipop/MM

Hi,
I have a mate7 gold (32gb 2 sim) and I want to update to lollipop or marshmallow but I am not sure how to start. I have read several threads and seen how this is done but I have a version that isnt common or something, so I wanted to know if I have to go to another version of KK before going up? I have MT7-TL10 V100R001C00B124. I havent been able to find much useful on that version and so am not sure if I should go to another prior to the update. In the about section -> Certification it says Serbia, I dont know if that helps or affects anything
Cheers!

Hi,
It's better to wait for official MM OTA update which is to release soon...but if you are going to test MM beta version, you can find it in the below link:

Huawei ascend mate 7 update, what to do?

Hello guys, I just want to get help with updating my MT7-L09C900B324 TO marshmallow I've noticed that this is a difficult procedure most of all because of the firmwares. Thats why I thought it might be great to gather the best firmwares.. And help people that are in the same situation... Cheers
That is difficult as it depends on whether it's Chinese firmware or international, whether or not it has dual SIM and what region the existing firmware is for. So many combinations.
IMO, only use an update or ROM that has an included pdf stating what versions it can update. Check this against what is installed. Many people brick through haste and ignorance.
You also need stock recovery to do it. Bootloader can be locked or unlocked for OTA or update. I prefer to unroot too, if just an OTA update. I also think it safest to wipe cache and dalvik. Start fresh.

Updating huawei ascend mate 7 to marshmallow
As far as I know it's the Malaysian firmware, I update it manually seems it was taking too long for the Ota to arrive. Of course, from kitkat to lollipop. Now, the Ota supposed to be kicking in but I got nothing.. Do you think it has something to do with the firmware that I have? I thought it was because of that, and believe if I don't change it, will never work

VPN for update?

Hey guys, so a friend of mine has a One Plus 3 but he didn't recived the update yet. So he utilized a vpn to connect to servers from Canada and UK and he got the update.
Has some one claimed that he got the update from sweden, if there are any possibility to connect to another area to look for that update. Specially in sweden

Sadly that won't work unless you have a device from that region or you're running the previous firmware from that region. The OP3 isn't region specific, so he can get the update from any region. The Honor 8 though has various models for each region of the world. (L04/L14 US, L09 EU, etc)

Ohh I see, thanks for responding. That is sad tho :/
You shouldn't need to connect to the device OEM's server via a VPN in order to get updates for your device. As OTA OS updates are sent to each device dependent on their model number and the regional OS settings.
if you know the update version just download it online and manually install it?

I read the thread but I'm out of luck cuz I don't have wifi no router near me. To complicated to do that.
:/
I don't know why everybody is in such a hurry to upgrade their OS from Marshmallow to Nougat. When Nougat is only available for a handful of devices at the moment. The majority of the other Nougat release are still in the Beta cycle and have numerous bugs that have yet to be addressed yet.

Just wait till you notice that allot of features that were in Marshmallow are missing in the Nougat Beta. While the performance maybe slightly better than Marshmallow. Nougat still isn't ready for retail use on the Honor 8 yet.

All essential features are here. Getting 5 to 6 sot.
I haven't faced a single issue. Plus I'm not a guy for complaining about features. I buyer the Honor 8 because of speed. And that's what I'm getting.

It's because the Nougat on this phone means EMUI 5 and it's 10x better than EMUI 4.1 .. trust me
it's a much better phone on Nougat EMUI5 ( Even Beta) BTW I think the current B360 for the L04 is the final Beta.
It will go live in the next 4 or 5 weeks. (Huawei is really slow)

B360 is definitely a fully functional build. I have yet to find anything broken and it even includes Vulkan api. As said above, EMUI 5.0 is miles ahead of EMUI 4.1. It's a much better and cleaner looking UI.

AH! I forgot that the new version of EMUI is better than the current version. It's the same with most android device OEMs.

MHA-AL00 rebrand to L29, go with c636 or c432? thoughts, opinions?

I have a mate 9 MHA-AL00, so far I've been able to unlock BL and have installed TWRP I'm trying to rebrand it to L29 using this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
My question is: I can't decide whether to go with C636 or C432... What are the pro's con's from each? anyone who has succeeded in the rebrand process what are your thoughts? which region to go with?
The main reason why i'm doing the rebrand is because of the notification issue, Nova launcher, Bluetooth issues with MHA-AL00.
Your opinions between the different versions will be appreciated.
Hi. I did exactly as you're intending and went with 636 about six months ago. It has worked flawlessly for me, I've updated twice using the firmware finder app, due to again and have had zero issues. The phone rom runs like a charm and has never let me down, not once. I do not recall any issues.
No experience of the other ROM but I went for 636 as that's the international version and I figured that would be better for me, despite living in the UK European ROM was an option but international is great.

I would imagine you can reinstall everything despite the rebrand. The backup will put everything back and any apps that are out of date will get updated via play. Maybe some others have more experience.

I've done rebranding from C636 to C432 but I found both has some bugs. Some with touchscreen or system sounds. I can't find any build stable for me. (Currently I'm on L29C432B225).
Regarding data you can make a HiSuite backup of all but make another backup of pictures because HiSuite does not backup pics and vids.
I don't know how to identify Official Stable builds vs. Official Beta builds, anyone knows?
Edit: Sorry, I was talking about Mate 9 PRO model LON-L29, but it should be the same
I got no 4G toggle switch on C432 even when my SIM was 4G compatible. I have to go back o C636.
Just today I went to C636 from the Aussie C34, finally got some updates. Build seems perfectly fine with a few new features over the C34 build. Haven't tried C432 yet but 636 seems like a keeper for me.

Which rebrand did you choose?
My region is C636 and it works well, but I am considering rebranding the C432 to potentially get in Beta programs that are not offered to the C636 region.
I've been on C636 since I purchased and rebranded my Mate 9 in March this year. B181 has been the best build for me to date. Stellar battery life, stable. I don't even bother using Nova as EMUI is just superb. I've not considered any other build, C636 is the one for me.

I had C636 and now I'm on C432 and I can't access to any beta program on both in my country (Argentina).
