if you wish i can prepare mokee 4.4.2 and cyanogenmod 11 guide. i have tried all of them, smooter then miui and coustomized stock roms with ART modealso you can use double click wake up. battery life is not bad, you can easily get 4 hours screen on time but you cant use infared, fm radio, free screenshot and other stock genstures.
there is also trwp recovery. but i must have free time to prepare these things
Yes, the other Roms would be great, too.
i heard ZTE releasing Kitkat and nubia UI 2.0 for rest of the devices at the end of this month. that includes Z5s and Z5sn.
Remember to turn on the developer options (debug)...must go to about phone...press 7 time the serial of the phone.

I know they will release UI2 version... Can not wait to try it.
:laugh:
I also have trouble with GPS - sometimes it works good, sometimes it looses signal frequently (with GPS test - i see it drop from using 10 sattelites to zero in less then a second...)
Is the GPS zip file you posted the same as if i use the APK GpsFix ?( i tried a lot of programs and put different GPS Conf. files but none of them solved my problem)
Tanx in advance

3. Export the cookie to a .txt file
In uGet
4. Add new download, link (2)
5. Open properties of the download > Advanced. Set "cookie file" field to the exported cookie file (3)
6. Start download

First you need a valid login to sammobile.com.

Hi everyone
Today im gonna post HOW TO UPDATE DIGIFLIP PRO XT811 TABLET WITH LATEST FIRMWARE AND OS KITKAT
HIT THANKS:good::good::good:
Digiflip Pro XT811 can be updated to KitKat in two steps. Please read the following guide carefully before you proceed.
Things that you need to keep in mind before you proceed for an update
As software update packages are large in size (>600MB), we suggest that you use Wi-Fi network to download them. You can use your mobile network (2G/3G) as well, however data charges as per your bill plan will be applicable.
STEP 1
Note: Step 1 updates Digiflip Pro XT811 from Jelly Bean (Build no. XT811_V1_20140815_085557) to Jelly Bean (Build no. XT811_V1_20141217_160943). This step prepares the OS for the KitKat update (Step 2).
1. Open web browser on your tablet and go to -
http://img31a.flixcart.com/update.zip and click ‘Go’ button the keyboard.
2. A package by name “update.zip” will start downloading automatically. You can see download progress in the notification bar.
Please note that the file size is ~325MB and it takes time to download depending on your
internet speed. Please do not use the tablet during the file download as it may interfere with the download.
3. Once the download is completed, open ES Explorer application on your XT811:
4. Click on the folder named “DOWNLOAD” and you will see update.zip file there. Long press on the file update.zip and click on “COPY”:
5. Click on back button and paste the file in SDCARD /Local folder:
6. Now go to Settings menu of the tablet and select About tablet -> System updates -> Update from SDCARD storage:
7. The tablet will automatically power off and the software update process will begin. The tablet will reboot again once the software update is successful.
9. Verify build number of the software by going to Settings -> About tablet -> Build number. The build number should be XT811_V1_20141217_160943.
STEP 2
Note: Step 2 updates your Digiflip Pro XT811 to KitKat 4.4.2 OS. Please ensure that your tablet is fully charged.
1. Connect your XT811 to a reliable Wi-Fi or mobile data network (data charges applicable as per your bill plan)
2. Click on the application “Software Update”
3. new screen will come stating ‘New update is ready for download’͘ Click OK͘
4. The download will start. You should see the download in progress. Once the update is over, it will ask you to install the file, click on ‘OK’͘
6. It will restart the tablet and install the Kitkat update automatically. Do not press any buttons during this process.
7. Once the tablet restarts, a screen will pop up saying “update successfully!”
8. You can doubly check whether the device has been updated to Kitkat.
Please go to Settings > About Tablet > Android Version. It will be mentioned as 4.4.2 (which is Kitkat OS)

It works fine . When downloaded the file was saved as "update-1.zip" as already there is an update file. Move the old update file and then rename the update-1 as update file. Now select system update. Wow Kitkat updated directly No need to carry any second step

Hi All
Hope you can help (because Huawei can't..)
I've had a Mate 8 for just under a year now and i've never had an update. Not one. A close friend bought one at the same time (different place) and has recently had the EMUI 5 update. I am still on EMUI 4.0 and have not had a security update since feb 2016. The handset was originally purchased in Germany and besides the update issue has worked flawlessly here in the UK. I would like the update however and do n ot mind if its manual and not OTA but Huawei are unable to offer anything like a solution. Does anyone know how i can update this handset without bricking it which is what concerns me. If it helps it is as follows:
NXT-L29
Build: NXT-L29C900B170
EMUI 4.0
Android 4.0
Thanks in advance
Hi,you have Global Version.I think for C900 there is no Ota Update,i can't see in the Firmware List
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/huawei-mate-8-stock-firmware-official-t3391727
I converted my C636 to C432 and all Ota Updates is coming
Ah ok, I've had 'global version' mentioned to me before. How can I convert to a different C variant and if I do do you think that will enable ota updates?

I think you can update to NXT-L29C432B192 via "dload". If it works, then Nougat update will be available. But for more sure, let's other guys from this forum confirm that.
Good luck.

Yes, I also believe that it is so possible

OK, thanks for the info.
Since had it confirmed that the hadset is a US variant (San Diego) and as such is trying to connect to US servers not UK which is why it can't the OTA update.
With this in mind will the dload method still work and if so, and sorry to be a total novice, but how to i do the dload method? (massively do not want to brick the phone)
Thanks again all,
1. Download the update on the computer.
2. Unzip.
3. Create a folder "dload" on micro SD card and copy only UPDATE.APP inside.
4. Turn off the phone and put mitsro SD card.
5. Turn ON the phone.
6. Go to "Updater" and click on "Local update".
That is it.
If update is not suitable to your phone "Installation failed" will be displayed at the screen and phone will be turn to the present state.

Hi All
I did all above as requested. Could not l;ocate 'uploader' so applied a hard reset and the phone updated although only the security patch.
As it stands build number is the same and no new update available.
Updater appears in the app list but no where to be found on the phone and the update in settings provides no 'local update' option.
Odd?
If upload is make it right in this menu after pres three dots shut be option "Lokal Update".

Only get this. Is there a zip to the build number you just posted? Would that work?

Sorry, I don't know why that happens. Does the phone detect micro SD card? Format again and create dload folder (without quotes), then proceed step by step.
That's all I can advise you.

I have no idea. But date 25.May.2011 looks strange. Download again ZIP and try to extract UPDATE tile with another program.

I have the version L09C636B191
Could I also convert to another version that would have nougat? Do we need an actual SD card? Or just put it in the root folder of our phone?
Enter *#*#2846579#*#* in the Dialer and a menu will open.
Select Software Upgrade--> SDCard Upgrade and then Ok.

Hi All,
I've tried again, this time using the newer link file. The phone processes the update all the way through but after restart the build number remains the same:
NXT-L29C900B192
And as such no EMUI 5.0 update is available. Is there anything else i can try? Is there an update file that relates spcifically to the above build number maybe?
Thanks again for all your help,
