Roll Back update - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

US Version MHA-L29C, fully stock, never been rooted...
I installed the US update yesterday (B167) and curious if I wanted to roll back to the previous version (B138) how I would go about it. Would I have to use funkyhuawei or is there somewhere I can get the full download and install it through the stock recovery?

have you tried using huawei firmware finder app? it's free and easy to use.

I haven't. Honestly never heard of it. I'll look online for it, thank you.

Looks like all that's on there is the new update.

B138 was never released as a downloadable update. You'll be stuck on B167.

There something wrong with B167?

I'm trying g to determine if HD voice is truly working and if they just removed the HD icon on the call screen. I also am getting some very inconsistent battery. One day I get 10 hours sot, the next 6 sot with the same usage.

Yeah, I'm curious. Best to wait. I bet they patched Bump.
Hmm i wonder if we will hear from someone who took it. Of course, being cloudy's 10n base makes me laugh at finally getting 10f.

Cool! How does it run compared to 10d? Can you install bumped twrp? Root? I imagine it's possible AT&T included aspects from later builds, so theoretically you could get a decent jump in performance if they have.

No I was stock, I can't find any changes so I would bet it's (security fixes) for root and bump.

That's what I think also. Time will tell I guess. I was about to say maybe it has some prerequisites to lollipop...
I will try root and bump when I get home from work.

Tried talking to AT&T to see what the update brings, they said that they couldn't see an update available, they tried looking for it for a while. But they did confirm Lollipop is coming in 1 to 2 months.

@thecubed did say that the 5.0/L update patched bump. Per this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56646539&postcount=356
I wouldn't be surprised if it's patched up here as well.
Not sure what this update is, but i'll personally be skipping it.

No doubt. They could have pulled a Samsung trick (I'm thinking the4.3 update that prevented downgrading)

Yeah the only thing is. This isn't Android L. It's a 4.4.2 incremental update. My guess is they caught on to bump. But as someone has said we can downgrade with the flash tool right now. But that might not be the case when lollipop is deployed.

since I know we can downgrade and re-root, I just took it and I'll use it for a while before reporting back in a few hours.
Does anyone know how to pull the zip from my device or the download URL so we can get a copy to pass around?

Newest stock OTA zip inside, will someone root it for us?

OTA file to bring the m8 on Verizon up to 4.17.605.9 and patch stage fright exploit.
Would a dev be kind enough to put together a rooted version on this? I do not know what else is included in this update so feel free to grab it from my Dropbox and tear it open. ? thanks in advance!

Hi Andy!
I haven't installed the OTA on my phone. I have twrp so it fails and I just didn't want to chance losing root by flashing back to stock recovery.
Anyone else want to give it a go and get this man the system pull??
Thank you Andy!

Might as well just flash the firmware and stock rooted rom then. :good:
Full stock rooted is purely stock, plus root , insecure boot and busybox.

Thanks Santo (and andybones)! I and the rest of the community appreciate your work and the quickness that you got this prerooted and uploaded! Glad I could provide the OTA for you!
I just noticed this got moved to the m9 forum.. Not sure why but can a mod move this back to the m8 forums?

You know it just really makes me wonder. I ruu'd lollipop firmware and accepted the ota while I was still on stock android recovery. Well to make a long story short , I installed 2 highly rated stage fright detectors and ran them . And of course I failed miserably.

Yep, I've got it too. Unfortunately, just like the last patch, I can't seem to get the OTA to install even flashing the TWRP system/boot backup and stock recovery... I had the same experience with the last patch, and I had to wait for someone to make a TWRP-flashable zip there, too.
Quite frustrating. Wish I knew why it fails.

Right, but restoring a stock backup to system should fix that. It doesn't. The only thing I didn't flash back stock was userdata, which shouldn't affect the OTA. But it still fails. That's what I'm saying.

No android 6.0.1 yet?....
So my guess is hold off on this one if we're using TWRP? Until a flashable version at least.

Need rooted, so need TWRP. Because after 'February 2016 Security Update', root your device has been complicated, so only try root again and again, and TWRP easy to install.

Getting mine too
Hey guys, I have a question I hope someone can help me out with. I have the sm-g935v which I flashed to sm-g935u. I'm considering flashing it to sm-g935t since the unlocked firmware will be getting quarterly updates which is unfortunate, and I would like to use samsung cloud, FM radio, and now Nougat. Would I have to factory reset my phone back to the verizon firmware before flashing tmobile's, or can I just flash from my current unlocked firmware straight to tm? Prior to Nougats release, I had downloaded the latest tmobile firmware and tried to flash it with no success so not sure what I did wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OTA
Won't taking the OTA update certain partitions we don't necessarily want to update? Like the BL, for example? Could this prevent rolling back to 6.0.1 if there are issues? Or does this not matter since we don't have an unlocked BL anyway? Thanksssss

The update is for T-Mobile users using the T firmware. You are on the US Unlocked firmware.
I got this also and updated this morning. Very smooth and loving it! Did OTA update and one thing i noticed after updating i wasn't able to clear my cache like before. When i power down, hold all 3 buttons (power, home and up key) get a screen more like a warning saying installing other firmware's or roms can damage my device. Not the exact wording but similar. Has anyone else tried doing that and got the same warning msg?
