Fixed. Redownload the ROM.

ajsmsg78 said:
Yeah I'm still trying to figure out what's causing that. It's someone with the external storage permissions. When I have time I'll try and fix that bug. It doesn't affect anything it's just annoying and only pops up when going into Apps. I'm gonna also Deodex the ROM soon.

Is this in connection with this "SD card Label bug " ?
Any chance, as you have a 702L, by now, to have a version of your rom for this model ?

hi, great job!
I've a question:
flashing this ROM on a 702l, what about the lte bands available? I mean, the lte bands will be the 703 ones or the 702 ones?
Thanks a lot,

It supports the 702L but you have to be on B106 or higher. Yeah, it's the not being able to write to the SDCARD in Lollipop. It should be fixed in Marshmallow.

That is what I mean, do not support the B003 or B006
If I had understud well, we (the poor GEM702L owners) have: To flash a GEM703L Rom (B103 or higher), then flash this rom, them replace some XML to recover our 702 carrers, right ?
Very complicated and risky, not ?
I don't know if it is possible, but it should be Nice to have only one rom to flash, don't you think ?

Yeah it works on all models but you have to upgrade to B106 which requires you to flash the 703L software. I can make a 701L rom from B003 or B006 but that's extra work that I won't have time for right now.

We understand. (I was thinking about the 702L, that you told you have, rather than the 701.)
This said, I don't understand why Huawey complicate the things that way, it should be so simple for them to make the same model with a choice of the careers by software, if the hardware is the same for the 3 models.

The phone was NOT rooted at all
Rooted phone does not get OTA updates
Originally received it with B026 ROM, OTA updated to B029 and finally last night to B211 Android 6 all functions working perfect
It looks some better battery behavior but it needs some time to be certain .
Recommend the update .

Thanx for the info so far.
What I am curious about is, if I unroot my phone (with SuperSU unroot) and flash back the stock recovery, will I get the OTA update without having to reset my phone? Everything runs just so well right now, would be a lot work to set everything up again.

Yeah no love for Europe

like you get something super important with android6... and if 703l get android 6, 701l probably will too.

The same notification problems with Whatsapp, Telegram, Hangout, ... I´ve changed the energy options, to performance, I´ve protected the aplications, but the problem don´t disappear. And I can´t change the launcher to Google Now Launcher. Just tested google now launcher, not Nova or other. Flashed with a clean b029 rom, and updated with OTA to b211.

Hmm.. no information about any update when checking..
703L premium 64gb version. running the ......B029 atm?
any insight to why it aint taking the OTA.. when checking.. (or is it computer app funded like some, where need to check for updates thrue comp-program) theres no rooting or anything down that alley on my handset..
// got two of these 703L in household, one silver64gb and one 32gb titanium grey.. both on the B029 (EMUI3.1) and none taking notice of any update present..

It should show a red notification from EMUI,
Or on "setup" "update" click check fo updates ......
If your Phone is ROOTED it does not get the OTA .

thx for the reply Marcus.
No it aint rooted or anything other then stocked..
I have an Huawei account connected to take advanatge of the 165gb 2 year cloud that are in everyp8max.
Im in Denmark but our handset is from China 703L.. and just changed to danish text and language.
will try to change the language to english and see if it something down that alley that are messing it up, since its not eating the B211.. but on the other hand it shouldnt be that.. previus OTAupdates this last year up here to the latest B029 went without any hazzle. ((( no it didnt changed anything to change language or region)
when checking and the setting set to autmatic over wifi.. it just says "no update" after that wheel have spin a couple of times..(weird, the previus updates went as expected)
are you updating from an specific app.. or just the obvius in stock android 5.1 setting < phone update where im checking.
would be an shame if need to reset the phone and then try, or trying to find the B211 in correct suit for my phone and manuelly trying to get it to eat it, by local update)
Tried also to see if its was batterylevel or need to be on powercabel ' that where undermining it..but nope.. :-/

Does Huawei startup manager still in at marshmallow.

B202 OTA for gem-702L(TW) rolling out

There's a new OTA update rolling out for Gem-702L (TW), the offiicial B202.
I haven't got it yet.
According to some info in a Taiwanese forum, Huawei plans to roll out B202 to all Gem-702L(TW) users within 2 weeks. There won't be any download link before that, not sure if there will be afterward.
Does anyone with 702L TW ROM installed getting the OTA?
It will be appreciated if someone can extract that for everyone else to update, and even for a dev to make a custom rom for it

Huawei Taiwan has officially released the B202 firmware for gem-702L
link page:
consumer.huawei.com/tw/tablets/support/downloads/mediapad-x2-tw.htm
the direct download link:
http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=86208&version=339045&siteCode=tw
Not sure what's been updated. I am still downloading.

That depends on where you are coming from.
If you are coming from B005 of Android 5.0, yes, it will format the whole system and reset the phone.
if you are already in Android 6.0(B201), press *#*#2846579#*#* in your phone and get into engineering mode, choose "software update"; then it wont wipe your phone.
**Edited**
This method still clears out your phone. Remember to back up your data first.

I know this has been asked before but I can't find a straight answer to it.. if someone could help I'd be grateful!
I have 702L with B006. android 5.01.
Can I upgrade to B202 like this:
-Do a dload update straight to B202 stock
-unlock bootloader
-install TWRP 6.0
-install custom rom via fastboot
or do I need to install 703L 5.1 stock rom before updating to B202?
Thanks!

No update to 703.
You have the 702 and the Update is for 702.
Install Stock Recovery and flash via Download Method.

So I have to install stock recovery? My device isn't rooted and the bootloader is still locked.

Yes,download the Firmware from here

and copy the UPDATE.APP in Micro SD in the Folder “dload“
Go to Update Program in Settings and Local Update,and wait to finish the Update.

I can suggest trying: link1 and link2 to transform 701L->702L and install B202 firmware, then B203.
How to Root (Thanks bark1234) :
- Get SuperSu 2.67 from here : http://download.chainfire.eu/897/Sup...0121175247.zip
- Install twrp recovery. For process search this forum.
- Before installing supersu zip, in twrp go to Advanced and enter Terminal Command and type in "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu"
- This will force SuperSU to use systemless root which will patch the bootloader instead of the system and work root properly.( Thanks to ajsmsg78 for pointing out)

Update fil in post #1 is supposed to be used with dload official upate method (super_sonic will confirm I guess).
If you have flashed TWRP recovery to device's recovery2, you shuld be able to still use dload official method, as it needs stock recovery (in recovery1).
if not, go back to stock recovery in recovery1

Here I found orginal from Huawei server. It is very slow download.
We don't know which version must be installed before that update.
I restore a B202 stock and local update was not avaliable.
3 finger reboot started dload but hanged on 5 %
Update.zip fails immediatly.
@super_sonic Which version did you have before you were able to update?
I understand it's possible to run the downgrade script but I want to know on which version you were before
Maybe this is for B003 or B005 as base.

The files are not identically.
I finisished the download from Huawei.
The "demo" file from Huawei has the structure like the the content of dload folder we know from B202 update.
So the Huawei is for Android 5 devices to update to B203
The russian files are of unknown source.

Since November till now no one with 702L reported anything about the OTA 203B!!

note that the version you've found:
http://consumer.huawei.com/tw/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=92804&key4=GEM-702LC158B203
has a different CUST than the russian file (CUSTC158 vs CUSTC129), so a different region deployement if I got it well. Also the "demo" word in the huawei file could be the reason why this B203 was not spread officially yet.
We don't know which version must be installed before that update.
I restore a B202 stock and local update was not avaliable.
3 finger reboot started dload but hanged on 5 %
Update.zip fails immediatly.

you were using a true 702L device ?

As far as I know, super_sonic has a 701L device, sarted with a 701L B003 ROM, flashed the downgrade update.app form Huawei Taïwan to turn a 702L 6.0 to 702L 5.0 (so then turn his device to a 702L, on OS point of vue), and then flashed the 702L B202. Finally upgrade to B202 (he'll tell us which file he did use)

so http://consumer.huawei.com/tw/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=92804&key4=GEM-702LC158B203 should be flashed on android 5.0 according to you.
What about https://cloud.mail.ru/public/5xiL/dynwUXkBh ?
Did you have a look into http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G733/g490/v67012/f1/full/update.zip ?

are definitly from Huawei's OTA database. But I don't know if all of its content is "pushed" to devices. Note that OTA are very "local" sometimes.

Good morning and merry Christmas .
I tested on 701 device and with the same 702 b202 base you suggested.
None of die first posted 2 files worked.
The huawei files have a fingerprint key and this should be preferred. I have not tested this.
My device: 701->703 B211 xposed 86

Sorry, I don't know why... Nothing really new in this firmware, but a new item: Google in parameters.

In january, I'll give a try with exactly the same steps as super_sonic :
As far as I know, super_sonic has a 701L device, started with a 701L B003 ROM, flashed the downgrade update.app from Huawei Taiwan to turn a 702L 6.0 to 702L 5.0 (so then turn his device to a 702L, on OS point of vue), and then flashed the 702L B202. Finally upgrade to B202 (using the update.zip file from post #1)
I let you now.
----
the build number suggest that the upadte.zip is closer to the russian complete rom file (C209B203), than to the Taiwan "demo" version. @audioralf , maybe the russian file is a more release version than the "demo" one.
The source where I get the update.zip:
http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php
@h.jubail : B203 OTA has been releasead in some asian regions:

Im positive that super_sonic's steps were:
super_sonic has a 701L device, started with a 701L B003 ROM, flashed the downgrade update.app from Huawei Taiwan to turn a 702L 6.0 to 702L 5.0 (so then turn his device to a 702L, on OS point-of-vue), and then flashed the 702L B202. Finally upgrade to B202 (using the update.zip file from post #1)

Exactly, but last step is flash full B203 firmware, not update.zip...
Sent from my GEM-702L using XDA-Developers mobile app

In a previous version there was an option to do a local update which would start the install from the dload folder. That is gone in my current Android 6.0/EMUI 4. Does anyone know what happened to this option?

ha ok.
And according to your build number, you use the complete russian file in post #1, and not the taiwan one. Correct me if I am wrong!
Thanks for testing that anyway!!

Search for PCT-LGRP2-OVS, you can also install the Firmware Finder App from Playstore so you can do ""Check Avability" this makes sure the firmware is approved for your imei. You can also flash non approved versions but some google services might not work.
Anyway I used this one:

Well. I dont get it. I have read 5 times the proxy wiki ''instructions'' went true everything dosens of times. But when i open up hi suite and try to recover it sayes that my device is not supported. Can you please write normal step-by step instructions here? the wiki instuctions is chaotic and misleading leaving me with more questions than answers(or am i the only one to think like that)
What do i do:
1. open up proxy app, press http component, choose original, it sayes patching succesfull. Then in "C:\Users\
i have added the lines
2. i find package url paste into the proxy app lines, select it. Then i press 'setup' it checks everythins and sayes that is ok and can proceed to installation.
3. boot phone in recovery open hi suite-recover but it sayes that phone is not supported
in hisuite setting i have set mannual given proxy

Can i know if your phone is still Google Play certified after updating to 10.1.0.218? I done mine but it became uncertified. That's why i rolled back to 10.1.0.213.

No there more models (Depening on region) but they start for example with PCT-AL10I, so he needs to check the logs to see which one he needs to add to HiSuiteConfig.xml.
Even if you get approved message safetynet can still fail it depends on CTS Match, CTS stands for "Compatibility Test Suite." This is the process Google uses to verify that a device and its firmware meet certification standards.
Firmware 218, was approved for install but still failed CTS Profile, while 228 is approved and also passes CTS Profile, eg Google Safetynet.

Hi all, I have an Honor View 20 stuck to firmware 9.0.1.137D(C652E4R1P6)
I've tride this method and managed to make it work in theory, but still can't find the right firmware version, every time I try one authorized by Firmware Finder, I get this answer from HiSuite Proxy "Your phone seem to be soft-rebranded and will fail authentication" and propose an alternative auth method which fails.
Any help pls?
