[Q] How to get Lollipop on Honor 6 (L04)?

There are now tons of threads detailing a myriad of methods of getting L on Honor 6. As far as I can tell
You cannot get CM12
You can somehow get 5.1 + EMUI3.1
So can anyone post the correct links to where I can get L? I am currently running CM11, and I have a custom recovery, so flashing is ok for me.

I already replied to you in another thread. Check it.

Download B309 package.
Flash over B374.
Go further down to B109SP01 from B309.
Update to B115.
Update to B500 with this update. zip.
You'll get B500 version if you are in India and not B507. I don't know the reason but that's what happened to me and few other people. I'm back to B374 as this ROM is buggy for daily usage. India will also be releasing lollipop update soon so I suggest it's better to stay away from this. While on the other hand Malaysia has also started updating to Lollipop, that update is over B380, update file is not uploaded by anyone yet.

Hi, thanks for replying.
If huawei is indeed releasing updates, I can wait. But can you tell me if the update will rewrite my recovery? I will certainly give this a shot if I can do a restore of my current ROM from recovery.

It's difficult to come back to EMUI 3.0 I have tried that so I'm telling you. You should wait for 2-3 days as Lollipop is coming soon. And yes there is a different recovery in Lollipop.
There is no cwm available for it. So coming back is not as easy as jumping from 3.0 to 2.3

Honor 6 L04 B109 to Lollipop + EMUI 3.1

Hello guys,
I need some help. My device (Honor 6 L04) is on B109.
Its rooted and I want to install the stock updates on it (so that i will get lollipop and emui 3.1)
Do I need to install the stock firmware first ? I dont really know where to start. I already searched in this forum but there are tooooo many things to watch through.
Maybe you can help me out a little :S
Thanks in advance

So it works now. Got Lolipop + emui 3.1
You need to get the stock rom for your device. But first replace (build.prop + local.prop) -> you need root for that. Then you can go and do the ota's of course. Good Luck!

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

Android Nougat (NRD90M test-keys ?) and Smart key

Hi Everyone,
I have some troubles with my Honor 8. I installed new OTA update using Firmaware Finder (FRD-L09C432B360). I installed both packages, big on ~2.2 Gb and also some battery fix update ~200Mb. I don't why, but my build number is NRD90M test-keys now. And also Smart key is not working now.
So i have few questions regarding my problems:
Is build number problem ? Will i receive new official OTA updates?
Do you know, why smart key is not working ? I tried to write own android application to handle this button, but system not even receive event from this button. Do you have some solution for that ?
I found new OTA update in Firmware Finder B380. Is this update fix bugs mentions above ?
Thank you for advice and help .

This is not normal and I don't think B380 will fix it for you. I suggest you roll-back to MM using the official roll-back package and either update via standard OTA or trigger the update with Charles method.

Hi sysak,
thank you for your answer. Maybe stupid question, but how can i roll back to MM ? Could you please send me some tutorial ? I am newbie in this topic.
Thank you

If you contact Honor live chat via you Hicare app they will give you instructions.
I think that the role back downloads are on this site

Yes, follow the link from johnhux7. Download the 73mb rollback package and flash it with the instruction in the attached PDF. Then do the same thing with the 1.75gb C432B131 software from the same website and you'll be good.

How to go to OpenKirin

Hi everyone,
I m a little confuse and when I say a little, I mean a lot, about the way to go from a L29C432B582, unlocked bootloader to a ROM with EMUI 8 to Openkirin. I read than oreo isn't available for L29, so have I to flash a Chinese ROM, or something ? Some help could be great. And why not make of this tread an how to for all firmware versions to go to openkirin, but I can figurate this just by myself. Does anyone know my path ? And could you please explain the way you have proceed to go to OpenKirin, or even and other Oreo Rom, from where you come to where you are now. With link to the thread and files you had use, lot of link seems dead. It could be really helpfull for a lot of us.
I will still try to find a way by myself and update this thread, but any help would be really appreciate.
I had think in a first place I had to go to a stock rom, for reach the official update, but if I can't have the EMUI 8 for L29C432 it will be a dead end.
Best regards

You will have to debrand your phone to the chinese version of mate 8 in order to update your phone to oreo. You have the thread with all the instructions in the forum. If you dont do this,you wont be able to flash any open kirin roms.
This is the thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/discussion-oreo-huawei-mate-8-t3785320

Hi,
Thanks Leverkusen
Did you make this ? What firmware have you ? Did the update could be done OTA ? Do I have to paid for DC-Unlock ?
