Honor 4C not detecting updates

Right now I have an Honor 4C build CHM-U01 V100R001C636B190 and it's stuck on Android Kitkat. Whenever I click "Check for Updates", it says that the system is up to date despite it not being the case. What should I do to get Marshmallow on this device, preferably with stock ROMs/OTAs?
Just tried the C636B360 ROM but the phone says "Version Check Failed".

Try this rom: https://redirect.viglink.com/?forma...e&txt=Honor 4C_Firmware_CHM-U01_B510-B521.zip

@kosmitchak
Unfortunately, that ROM you've provided also does not work, giving out the same "Version Check Failed" error.

You are trying to update it by updater app or force update (power, volume up and volume down when phone is off)?

i use the updater app;
when i force-update it complains that it couldn't find update.zip
seems that on my phone the bootloader wants a zip file for the update and not an app file

funnily enough, it IS the stock ROM that came with my phone, or rather, it was an official update sent to my phone.

Maybe you should try TWRP update method but for this you will need unlocked bootloader.

L09-C432 (EU version) finally get OTA B130 this morning.

All looks good so far, also VoLTE is enabled now.

Did you download via software update into the settings menu? Just checked now and no update available also via HiSuite on the PC

Yes via phone software update (OTA), also in menu "download the latest package" is possible.
Via FF it's available too.

Hard to say after one day, but it seems to me just about the same as before on B100.
Also looks a bit more responsive, although it may be because of the wiped out cache.

I've downloaded the L09-C432B130 via FF. I have extracted the update.zip into the dload folder. Which steps are to do next?

Anybody got some free time and could make a flashable .zip for TWRP? Would be very appreciated!

From EMUI 5 onwards, you can't install yourself. Hu/ho checks IMEI before installing. FF via DNS or proxy may or may not work.

HELP Honor 8 Boot-Loop After OTA out of the box [FRD-L19].

Hi all
My honor 8 just arrived yesterday,
Turned it on and it prompted me for a software update and it went in to a boot-loop.
Not sure what fw it was on before the update, also unsure what version it was upgrading to.
Later found out trough fastboot that it is (FRD-L19C636B386).
Tried to factory reset (no luck)
Tried eRecovery method, keeps showing (Getting package info failed)
Tried the 3 finger method with FRD-L19C636B380, keeps showing (Software install failed Get help from http://www.emui.com/emotiondownload.php?mod=restore)
Tried to flash trough fastboot, unfortunately it can't be done without unlocking the bootloader.
Wanted to unlock the bootloader but seems like it requires the phone to be able to boot to OS before I can get the unlock code.
Anyone having the same issue or have other alternatives/solutons for me to try?
Cheers!

Try rollback package

Hi I also have L19 and trying to update to B380 from B360 thru OTA using Firmware Finder. And your issue happened to me. It just bootloops then goes to eRecovery but it has error " Getting package into failed".
So can you help me step by step on how you fixed your phone? Thanks!
Tried using Rollback package. but now my new error is "Data partition was damaged seriously! ..."
I dont know what to do anymore, I just bought this phone 5 days ago, sad life.

I just checked the fastboot mode it says:
Phone Locked
FRP Lock
1. what to do to unlock bootloader?
2. Whats happening now is, the "Honor" logo boots twice then goes to Huawei eRecovery. Under eRecovery it has option "Download latest version and recovery" > "Download and recovery" > "Starting WIFI failed". Actually I can connect to wifi earlier and this what happens to the eRecovery "Getting package info failed". But now it CANT connect to the wifi.
3. I tried the firmware rollback but it didnt help

2. Try remove password from your wifi connection and again try download recovery
Or, download full firmware B360 (2 zips) unzip both and separately put to dload foldet on sdcard

This is what I'm doing now downloading FRD-L19C636B360 Full OTA which is 1.4GB from boycracked.com then will use the 3 button combo to install it using dload folder in the sd card. Still waiting to download the file. Will update you once tried

I followed d FF video from youtube by MT team, I dont know what became d problem in d installation of d b380 update and made this to my unit.
Btw after install the 2 files should i wipe data and cache before using it?

No need to be wiped anything. You remember if firmware which you try install was labeled with PV on end name of fw?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There were 2 b380 available, 1st is 300mb 2nd file is full ota. I only downloaded d full ota. No PV at d end as far as i remember. Used wifi proxy > system update ota > start download pause > return wifi config > resume ota update.

Rommco05 said:
Ithink this was issue, if you want install some firmware or update (Nougat) must be always labeled with PV, with this is able to install over dload or twrp
Click to expand...

I think PV filenames is for twrp. I just read that updating to b380 you need to rollback to b120 which is marshmallow then jump to b380. As long as i can return it to my stock b360 Im fine with it. I will just wait for Oreo or OTA update without using FF since this issue is driving me nuts. It's just 5 day old phone n this already happened. My download is still at 50% very frustrating download speed

Rommco05 said:
As far I know every update must by labeled with PV if will can be installed manualy, this is "offline firmwares" wich don't need be checked online by Huawei

I have downloaded the 2 files. When I extract the 1st file it has 3 files ( meta-INF, update.app, full_mainpkg.tag). Should I put these 3 files to the dload folder or just the update.app?

All files from each zip together, but zips must separately. I'm going for today off, if will something wrong I have look tomorrow

The 1st file worked my phone now booted, but the problem is I cant pass thru setup/google account because it doesnt have keyboard just voice command. Why no keyboard, it's my 1st time to see this happened as well, was there a problem with my download?
Im now in the process of installing the 2nd file you gave thru 3 combo, lets see if it gives me a keyboard.

Locking bootloader removes root? Also more Questions. [Phone Gone Now]

I'm gifting my father in law an Honor 6X. I already unlocked the bootloader and rooted, but I'd like for him to be able to install updates when they're released. If I uninstall all the bloatware while rooted and then relock the bootloader, will root be retained? Will TWRP be removed? Will OTA updates be allowed? This is all on the stock ROM.

I believe you should be able to receive updates with the bootloader unlocked. The OTA might relock the bootloader and will most likely remove root. In order to update you will need to also have stock recovery installed so there would be no way for him to root again without unlocking the bootloader and flashing twrp.

Ok. He's clueless when it comes to even using stock phones, so I'll probably completely return the phone to stock and call it a day. Is there a thread floating around here to do relock, unroot, and completely return to stock?

Its also if you flashed twrp not only custom roms. You can uninstall root in the superSU app when selecting full unroot in the settings. I believe a factory reset can do it too. The next step would be to download the firmware for the phone and using fastboot to flash a boot and recovery image and then to lock the bootloader. Those steps are all in the link. That is the quickest way.

When you get into the Firmware Finder(PC) app youll notice your on a tab labeled "Main Page". Click on the tab labeled "common base" and type BLN-L24 into the search bar at the top right and then click on FIND. A list of firmware will pop up. Find the one that matches your build number and then click on the link under the "filelist" section. There will be two or three different zips you need to download. When you have the three downloaded let me know.

Ok now extract the files from the update.zip folder. Then take the UPDATE.app from the extracted files and open it with update extractor: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
After that your ready to follow the steps on the other guide.

So I screwed up. Before you posted I unrooted via unSU flashable zip. Then I fastboot flashed boot and recovery to the stock one from the update.app file. Now it's got some verification error on power on and OTA updates fail. I tried moving the update.app to a dload folder on sdcard, but when it starts up it fails at 5% when restoring from the sdcard.
ETA: Tried the 360 FW which updated successfully. Booted and asked for password. After panicking shutdown and copied the HW contents to Sdcard and did the update again which succeeded. Booted and asked for password again and I panicked again. Pulled the Sdcard and booted into stock recovery. Wiped everything and then restarted crossing fingers. Started up like normal, no password request! So it looks like the phone is back on totally stock EMUI 5.0. I'll hope for the update and will try with fingers and toes crossed. Thanks for your help. I may be back, but hopefully not.
ETA2: There's no update option above the last About option in settings... How do I get the update option?

Edit: Before trying below steps. Just put the files from "BLN-L24_hw_usa"(b360) into dload folder and flash with dload. It might update the version.img without the needs for the steps below. if that brings the build number back to b360 use the hisui(PC) application to connect to the phone and update
Ok i forgot to mention something. The reason you dont have a update option is because you are on b360 which never had a button. Your build number on your phone will say b366 but thats incorrect. You cant receive an ota automatically because the phone thinks its already on the latest version. You need to take the UPDATE.APP from the "BLN-L24_hw_usa" (b360) folder and extract the VERSION.IMG file. It needs to be flashed with TWRP because fastboot wont work for some reason. That file will fix the build number and change it back to b360 so you can receive the OTA which will also restore the missing apps and features. That means you have to unlock the bootloader. Flash twrp. Flash the vendor.img with twrp and then do the dload method.
You have all the files and have done it already so this time will be easier. Ive done this way too many times with this phone. Sorry i forgot the mention the one step

Build number on my phone is already 360, and it has never been 366. Tried flashing the 360 like you said via dload and nothing seems to have changed.
Also the SIMtray eject tool seems to just go into the phone without ejecting the tray. A paperclip worked, but man this phone is really frustrating.

Wife made me box it up and ship to her dad, so I no longer have the phone. I did install the HiSuite when I first powered on the phone and it was never able to connect and see the phone, so who knows what's going on.
Thanks for all your help. I have another one, but I'm just going to sell it and be done with it. No idea what other phone I can get with the same specs for the same price that's not so difficult to flash, but I'll keep looking I guess.

Its not difficult. In order to connect to hisuite you need to enable developer settings and allow usb debugging or type hisuite in the settings search bar and click "allow HiSuite to use HDB". I got this phone for christmas and i already know a ton about it. It may seem complicated now but its really nothing.

As far as i know rooted phones will not get OTA. You have to manually flash update.zip and root again, because rooting needs bootloader unlock and will not recognise the device in update server. I guess you have to wait for manual update zip...?

Now you can directly install and update from there.

Thank you. Will check in FF app. Btw, how come the update is about 1gb in size with such a small change log? If you have already updated, do you have any ideas if they have some under the hood changes which they have not mentioned? Just curious.

I give up.. terrible update or security support
Good thing Samsung are much better
I just rebranded my honor into a Samsung
Never rooted.. Never unlocked.. Stock recovery
Poor support
0 updates

You will get OTA on rooted phone but it wont install. Even just replacing the recovery wont help as your stock boot is modified while root. you need to flash the stock boot as well before you will be able to update via OTA.

Stock phone
Never rooted
Never changed recovery
Never unlocked bootloader
Ota is broke or non-existent
Support sucks.
Great phone if you never want updates
Bug fixes or new features.
These are as is throw away phones.
