No updates. Ever.

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.

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?
Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-L29 using Tapatalk

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.
http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/10/download-huawei-mate-8-b192-marshmallow-update-europe/

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,

[HELP] Features Missing after unlocking bootloader

Well although I planned to unlock bootloader after a few months I decided to grab the opportunity when unlock page started working and with the ultimatum by Huawei about providing unlock codes, but ever since I unlocked and fixed multiple boot loops I noticed few apps and features are now missing such as
HiFi Huawei sounds in Settings is gone
Unable to change or apply themes
smart remote Control is now gone,
Phone no longer stay awake while looking at it
There might be more stuff missing which I haven't noticed
I mean it feels absurd I just unlocked bootloader why are these stuffs missing this makes no sense to me, all I did is installed twrp, installed magisk no modules nothing, in fact, my favorite mods are giving boot loops anyway but that aside I do need the above things back please help out a friend, anyone else faced this ?
I have a theory like Miui had a "region" option and apps changes according to regions set. So does something like this happens in EMUI as well, I don't remember exactly but I believe I set region/language as the UK while completing the setup, if so how can I change it back(PS: I live in India)
or its the side effect of root perhaps?
PHONE: HONOR VIEW 10
Current EMUI ver:8.0
Varient:BKL-09(C675D2)
Current Version of Update:8.0.0.140

Wow well I expected a better response from the community or some response for sure.. Well turns out these all apks were in data partition, so they got removed when phone storage was formatted, makes sense now
Extracted the apks and pushed them myself... Features are back

No idea what kind of issues you had, but none of those vanished after unlocking my bootloader.
I've been able to use themes just like before, the display stays on when I look at it and those Huawei sounds in settings are still there as well. No idea about the remote since I never used it anyway.
So idk what went wrong on your phone but it doesn't look like that's anything "normal"

Help please !
Bro, can you please please please extract upload C675 system.img stock so that I can come back on stock?

I am guessing it as per different variant, perhaps in mine these apk were in the data partition, Microsoft translator was missing as well
I pushed those apks extracting from firmware to the system partition and its back to normal

You are a savior then !
Yes bro, please upload it. It would be a pleasure for me and several others. I'm dying to get that.

I just realized the firmware on firmware finder seems rather incomplete, update.app is just 300 MB or so, no way it contains full system.img
so am gonna have to take twrp backup b ready for 3gb download, anything else u want other than the system?

From LOS to Stock
Thats not a problem bro, have a 50mbps 250gb monthly plan in broadband. Wanted you to know that I am coming from LOS to stock as much as I know it would require only system.img. But if you think anything else would be required, then please upload that too, as I have only the stock recovery and nothing else.
Thanks for your help !

Mate, thank you for this upload. I am also having the same problems(C675). You are a life saver.
1. Could you please elaborate the steps in detail, where to place system.img in twrp folder(In Internal or sd card)?
2. Also what is the version u have uploaded mate(8.0.0.140/8.0.0.151)?
3. Also can you upload ramdisk, kernel, stock recovery also?
4. Is there any way to get FULLOTA-MF for India as provided in other regions?
Thank you.

I flashed it bro but no network.
I think I need radio/modem files.
Could you please upload? I'm waiting.

here you go , rest of the partitions
Do the same unzip in PC- Copy all these files inside twrp backup folder, go to twrp and use restore option hopefully it will work
this is 140 update backup I haven't received 151 officially due to unknown reasons, but I had made changes to my system partition so it contains almost all new features and fixes of 151 except the 3D creator cam,
3D creator is in my data partition which i did not backup

Hey, Are you sure taking restore of this one alongwith previous one will do the job ? I guess imei resides in efs partition which I cannot see here. Can you confirm this once please ?
and thanks for your time and effort bro

Hey, could you share how did you manage to extract the apks? I downloaded the firmware using the Firmware Finder and found the HwRemoteController.apk but when I try to install it via adb I get a signature failure.

U need to place them directly in /system/app
Or /data/apps and give permission rw-r--r--
Or try signing the apk it should work I guess if libs are not there

Take your own backup first... Try installing only one partition at time... To be honest this EMUI is very new to me... Dont know y they made so many different partitions
Or maybe it's a kirin's thing... I should have just gone with Op5t like rest of the world... Its just chaos and confusion here

Locked bootloader: let's find a new way to Update our P20 PRO

Hi, sorry in advance for my bad English! as we all know, it is now difficult to get the bootloader unlocked on our new huawei, and we can no longer take advantage of features, like easily installing new roms, latest update.... I would like to build with you in this topic, a new guide to easily install the new updates.
Based on this method that works!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...ide-how-to-update-to-emui-9-c432-l09-t3883557
In your opinions, by downloading a new update files with FirmwareFinder (see video),
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73AUzLQvXkw&feature=youtu.be
would it be possible to edit an archive to install it with flashDrive OTG ? Maybe by editing the names of some files ? Thoses files look really similar than others used in the methode link above.
Maybe those files are ready to import in Hisuite for a manual update? ?
Feel free to discuss all this here, and little by little we will build this new guide together Thx all!!! ?

I have been trying tirelessly to import and update with hisuite.
I truly believe Huawei has implemented some sort of signing technique similar to ios.
I would like to try the otg update as there is a way to install a software update from an SD card via the secret menu. However I do not have an otg for USB c at the moment.
If you download the firmware update and then extract the zip file to the root of the SD card. And try an update that way. Then perhaps it would work.
I have tried using VPNs to bounce me all over the world to try and trigger an update and nothing happens. I am stumped at this point and I refuse to pay somebody to unlock the bootloader. I feel we should be able to unlock our devices at our own free will as we do own them. However it seems Huawei is taking after apple in this regard.

We'r on a good way!

You can give it a shot. Not sure if it will work. If the firmware shows as approved for install I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Ok, no result for the moment.. :/ maybe files are nothing organized correctly for this method. ? Maybe need to be renamed. I don't know.. But i'm sure these files can be used for this flash ? Wait and see. Do not not hesitate to give news if you find something!

Firmware finder works. Do the e-recovery method. you want to select the .178 build. when you go to check firmware access, hold your finger on "Check firmware access" button and it will change to approved.

I changed my connection, and hot spot dns on windows, my phone is connected to the Hotspot, but in FF I'v no 178 for C432 ?... Trying with 195 and impossible to success the availibility button... It's not working... Hummm, what is your previous version? 8.1 or 9? I think the erecovery methode not work in 9... ARRGG huaweiii ? i think i'll buy an iPhone ??

Hi,
would this method work for changing region/rebranding? I want to convert a CLT-AL00 to a CLT-L29.

No. You need an unlocked bootloader for that.

Mine is service firmware and there's no 9.1 service firmware for C782.

Hi mates, two questions.
Did the Bootloader relock with this method?
Does magisk work on 9.1?
Many thanks

This method relock bootloader.

Yes, its C432, CLT-L09, i delete the L29 folder, pluged the otg, was verifying the package and said, error verifying, but after that bootloader bricked, i cant do nothing i sent the phone to huawei warranty.
I think it was because the phone had low battery, only 30%, and the update was stopped with no battery, so remember to update with full battery

Hello guys, has it worked for anyone else?

Be careful what you download and where from. A version I installed worked perfectly but locked my bootloader.
Version 9.1.0.311
For me I didn't save my code so I'm screwed.
Don't really care because I'm selling it. But just a heads up.

Thanks, I don't care because I have the bootloader locked.

"Now on your phone, Open the dialer and call -> *#*#2846579#*#* -> ProjectMenu-> Software Upgrade-> SDCard Upgrade-> OK"
This code don't seem to work for me. Is there another to access this hidden
menu?

Did you use an OTG method to flash the rom?

Can someone please save the 10.5.8.IN55CB OTA from T-mobile before updating?

Since T-mobile hasn't posted it, I'm surprised no one has saved off the update for others to download. If anyone gets the notification that the update is available PLEASE save it (plug it into your PC and select file transfer) off the device and provide a link to help the rest of us out.
Much appreciated.

I forgot to add this: Where in the internal storage would/should I look? I need to back up my phone anyways, therefore, this is a perfect opportunity.
Thanks.

After it downloads you should be able to say "wait to install later." It should be around 360MB I hear. If you have an app that shows file sizes it should locate this as a large file on your device. Like Free Cleaner and File Manager, from the PlayStore, if you go under Memory, go under large files, it should show you the location. Then go there and zip it up and save to another directory like Download. And then upload to Mega.nz or another file sharing site. Thank you for helping!!!

i needed the TMobile modem if one of you guys could share that it would help

i am uploading it right now. I am in desperate need of a persist.img from tmobile device. some how I managed to delete my only copy and my backup to the cloud I guess never was completed. if you could do this for me I would be ever so grateful. ill have the update in about 10 min

Quick update: My phone keeps rebooting after downloading the update and lands back into the tmobile splash screen and into the home screen.
What am I doing wrong? Reason being this is that I'm trying to preserve this OTA myself as well.

This is exactly what I need as well, just the modem.bin or NON-HLOS.bin whatever is on the modem partition. I suppose there is a way to pull from adb as well. However, not knowing what is in the OTA makes it quite difficult to see if there are mulitple modem partitions.
Go to system / build number / click it 7 times (it should say you are now a developer), the enable USB debugging. Trust the computer you plug it into (it will ask you on the screen of the phone), then type:
adb pull /dev/block/by-name/modem NON-HLOS.bin
Something like the above should work and save to your fastboot directory,where ever you ran the ADB command from. Then you can zip that file up and upload and we get all the new modem bands.

my problem is i use TMobile and changed to eu and global my 4g is 120mbs 5g 44mbits it was 198 i needed it to test if it changes you fastboot flash modem_a or(b) i could use someone who has TMobile modem backed up in twrp i can give everyone img then

i think i found issue with 5g nr is turned off i used settings database editor to change from 0 to 1

Would this help with 5g speeds? Also I have already updated, but I plan to keep my TMobile 8 stock so I'll try to get whatever files you guys need. Currently at work though.

see where i flashed modem

i have 10.59 what file do you need i dumped it

Do you have to be rooted for it to actually save? I followed that app's instruction and gave permission via ADB but it doesn't seem to save for me.

I figured that would probably be the way. Just wasn't sure does too the fact the app Setedit made it seem like it would save if you just gave it permissive over adb. No rush on you doing that though. Not sure if I'll be investing into all of that yet. I don't mind stock enough to modify yet.

Ok so where's the OTA download link?

T-Mobile variants don't give you the wait option it restarts immediately. Also you can't get to where it saves the update anyway without root. There's another way of doing it and we are waiting for it to be pulled
