Hi guys,
I am new here, recently i got to know that TA-1000 is a Chinese only version and was supposed to be in China only, but somehow i got it and wasn't able to update. It was stuck on April 1st, and now it is on September 1st.
I followed a procedure by a Russian guy on this forum. I must say this site is amazing. So i made a video out of it.
Well i am not sure if i can post the video tutorial link here in the forum. Let me know if i can and i'll send you the link to do it very easily.
Looking forward.
Thanks
Mavrik

After the Hard Reset (which will delete pre-installed unnecessary apps), will I get the previous UI (swipe up to get to Main Menu)?
I can confirm that it works on Nokia 6 TA-1000. In my case I had the phone connected to the PC already when I had the flash tool open. And when I turned it off to prepare for flashing the firmware it automatically switched to Download Mode. But the GUI is changed after that. No more swipe up menu and the items in the pull down menu are way too big now.
You can install Pixel Launcher that have swipe up function.
I followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/development/nokia-6-official-firmware-mena-region-t3664441 and flashed the nokia 6 ROM linked there.
Result:
1. My phone is no longer identified as TA-1000, but as TA-1025 instead.
2. It updated itself (OTA) all the way from 7.1.1 June 2017 (through July, August, September, October, November patches) and ended as 7.1.2 November 2017 patch.
Warning:
Your mileage may vary. My phone went through few ROM flashes described below and the end result can not be guarantied.
My phone is dual SIM, 4GB RAM, 32GB storage without NFC - definitely Chinese version.
History:
I purchased the Chinese (mainland) Nokia 6 in May.
The phone came with some weird (custom) ROM without update function but with Google apps. The ROM was so messed that location services didn't work properly so applications like G maps, gett and even tinder were not able to detect device location.
I followed this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/development/problem-firmware-nokia-6-ta-1000-t3640667 to flash slightly modified global ROM with stock Android 7.1.1. It still missed the update and some minor issues like DOLBY not working.
Then I followed this thread to flash the original TA-1000 ROM https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/how-to/nokia-6-ta-1000-september-update-t3679882 and it went to stock locked Chinese ROM that updated (OTA) to December 2017 security patch.
It was still awful experience with custom locked apps without option to replace some of them.
So I just followed that thread, and flashed the ROM for nokia 6. I Ignored the warning about different phone model and continued.
Everything seems to be working just fine (none of the issues I encountered with other ROMs).

I really like what you have done. I also have a TA-1000 with the December patch but in 7.1.1. I had thought of flashing another rom many times, but they say that in that case it is no longer updated by OTA. If you say that OTA really works, I'm going to decide to flash it.
I also would like to know if location services are working ? With Google play update (I'm in France) I have region issue I think. When I bought it in July I had Google location history working. After some time and a Google play services update it stop working by disabling it. And share location is not showed anymore in location settings. And location history is greyed and locked. Everything is on in Google settings, I tried another account flash the phone with original firmware and as soon as I install Google play it updates it self and lock location history. It works on a ta-1033 but in France ta-1000 won't work.
I tried to cheat on GPS settings, not using my French SIM card and on. But still it disable itself.
So does flashing ta-1025 solves this issue ? ta-1025 is the Indian version ?

Share your results. OTA worked just fine. The phone updated itself (OTA) all the way from July to November patches.

TA-1025 is MENA (Middle East / North Africa) version. AFAIK, the difference between versions is in the radio bands.
My location history works perfectly fine as well as every other application using location services.

In this case, I need a European ROM for flashing. Radio band is not the same that MENA version.

The ROM has nothing to do with radio bands. It's the HW difference.
For example TA-1000 does not have NFC and no ROM will fix it.
The ROM that linked in my post is for TA-102x and TA-103x.
There will be no difference in functionality between international ROMs. Only Chinese is different.
Well, I shall try then to install the ROM . As I have the Chinese version I guess it will disable NFC, and may be led support ? I will post the result next week here ASAP.
Then I will install the rom ta-102x in my ta-1000. Cross our fingers
It has worked!!! Thank you very much!!! Now I have a fully operational TA-1025, which has all the updates down to 7.1.2 by OTA. I had been thinking about flashing another ROM for a long time, but I did not dare if OTA updates failed.
I only find a defect. the apps of the Chinese version have disappeared. There is no backup app, gallery, or music. They have been replaced by google. Is it possible to get the apps from the Chinese version?

It's not a defect, it's a blessing
The launcher is still some semi custom version.
If you are interested in Chinese apps, you should probably flash the TA-1000 ROM from this thread - it has all the custom apps including contacts, phone, calendar, music etc.
A small update: today I've got the December 2017 security patch was really hopping to see Oreo update which was promised to land this year.

Hello sir, I found ur post is interesting, I would like ask some questions if I may:
1. Which ROM I need to download, the one in the first page of this thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/development/nokia-6-official-firmware-mena-region-t3664441) or other pages? Since currently that thread have 49 pages so I confused which one I should download.
2. After download the ROM and flash it with OST Tool, the apps and data will be wiped out? Is it required to do a hard reset? Currently I have TA-1000 which at December Updates and since I flashed to the original chinese stock ROM I never do hard reset and working with my old data and apps just fine until.
3. Have you try the beta labs to try the Oreo update? Since right now TA-1000 model is unable to register. If like u said that the ROM could change the registered variant (from TA-1000 to TA-10xx) then probably it could pass the beta labs verification.
Looking forward for ur respose, if anyone would also like to help pls reply this message. Thank you.

ENHANCEMENTS
This update introduces changes including the following:
- Android Security : Includes the updates of
Android security patches through September 1st 2017.
- SD card stability improvement: Includes bug fix that improves the SD card functionality
OTA File Link:
NPJ25.93-14.7 Size 35.4mb
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kg6oRfRN0v4nkvF0s0Enor2AS2AWxF27/view?usp=drivesdk
Moto G4 PLUS Xt1644 retusa receiving same update message as of two days ago.
I have an XT1625 on NPJS95.14-8 (higher than your 14-7) and it tries to install the OTA update and fails quickly once in recovery. I suspect an assert() failure on the system version.
Still, none of these have the October patchlist which fixes KRACK.

1)The OTA listed above requires an Amazon device.
2)Looking at the updater script, this OTA and the non-Amazon OTA for NPJ25.93-14.7 requires NPJ25.93-14.5.
Code:
Package expects build thumbprint of 7.0/NPJ25.93-14.7/7:user/release-keys or 7.0/NPJ25.93-14.5/5:user/release-keys
As you've flashed NPJS25.93-14-8 (the retail, non US June 2017 update), this takes you off the update path for US devices. I do not know if you can flash NPJ25.93-14.5 (which has the June 2017 patch as well) and update via OTA without issue. https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298984458 for NPJ25.93-14.5, https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617945295 for NPJ25.93-14.7 (both non Amazon), or NPJ25.93-14.5 for Amazon devices: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634798183
Either way, you are correct this OTA doesn't have the Krack patch, for official stock updates you'd have to wait for the 06 November 2017 or December 2017 security patch levels. I recall custom ROMs such as Resurrection Remix and Lineage OS have the Krack patches in place.

Wow - that was INCREDIBLY helpful, and thank you very much. Not only that, you provided the links to 14.5 and 14.7 so I didn't even have to search for them. Again, thank you!!!
Ehud
Do you know if the ATHENE_AMZ_NPJ25.93-14.7 version is out? I only see the NPJ25.93-14.7 for non Amazon. I really wish I could switch the from AMZ update channel to the Retail. It has to be possible with the bootloader unlocked to flash a retail version. I have searched, but no one has been able to change the update channel.
I guess if I want to have a fresh install, I would have to flash the 14.5 Amazon version and do the OTA for the 14.7.

I used a file manager and looked for system apps and deleted the Phoenix one only. I still have the widget app. I used solid explorer, but es File Explorer works also.
I am waiting for the ATHENE_AMZ_NPJ25.93-14.7 myself. Is it available yet?
Bricked my phone when i installed the retail version of NPJ25.93-14.7 in a bootloader locked amazon version and the phone wont pass of the recovery menu saying an unauthorized version is installed. Searched the web for a while now and only ATHENE_AMZ_NPJ25.93-14.5 is available and i can not downgrade.
Any help will be appreciated

Hi,
I live in Egypt and the Honor View10 is NOT officially sold here so I bought it from the hihonor UK website. I noticed that I never receive OTA updates despite trying to check for updates from time to time. When I wait for too long for OTA and it never comes, I use Firmware Finder which is NOT working nowadays for some reason & honestly I'm not a big fan of it since my phone is a flagship and relatively new so why not getting OTA updates directly from Honor?!
Chatting with Customer Service today revealed a schocking thing. I was told that I should be using the phone in Europe with an European SIM to get updates since my phone is not supported in my region!!! I told him that my phone is the international version and it was unlocked (sim free) so how come I won't be getting updates just because I'm not living in Europe?!! all he said is that he'll forward my complaint to the dev team to investigate but no promises
But is this really the case with all other brands or it's just Honor/Huawei?!
I'm here not to knock any brand down but paying around GBP 450 for a phone that will torture me just to get OTA updates is a thing that I regret now very much - especially that they have all their attention nowadays on their newer phone (the Honor 10), which is pretty much identical to the Honor View 10 but with a notch! and my phone seems like it was forgotten very quickly!.
If this issue is not resolved, I'll drop Honor/Huawei brand entirely from any future considerations! a hard move on my part because of their excellent hardware but I can't pay at least ~ USD 500 for a phone without having OTA pushed to me wherever I am in the world!!!

Well first of all this is bull**** that you need European sim to get updates
Kindly mention the version you are currently on.. Just to notify you, updates are quite slow on view 10 so it's like 1 update in about 2 months
There are ways you can debrand your phone and change it to US, Indian or China version as well getting updates shouldn't be a problem, at best use Vpn to overcome any geographic restrictions

Thanks for your answer. I'm quite sure their customer service wasn't right and my sim has nothing to do with updates as I bought it sim free in the first place. I was wondering if there's any way to convert my phone from European to US and install their Oreo 8.1 ROM with the EMUI 8.1? I obtained an unlock code from their website but I kept it aside as I'm not planning to use custom ROMs untill official suppport stops completely.
I'm currently on the BKL-L09 8.0.0.160(C432) - bootloader is locked and no root or any modification has been applied to my phone.
Android Security Patch: May 5, 2018
I know that there's the B162 update which has EIS + June security patch + some fixes for sound...etc
and there's also the B163 update with has July security patch.
I'm not interested to install VPN's for daily use as I'm not super worrying about privacy, but I installed and tried several free VPNs and configured them to any European country, but checking for updates gave nothing up till this moment I'm writing this. I'm really pissed off!

Well yes 163 is available for your device, u can always use firmware finder for update, lucky for you full ROM is present on firmware finder, not just incremental updates, u can use this
If u get any problem installing this just search for "dload" method and it will update just fine

Not everybody I know in Spain has 162 update, the OTA are rolling out in batches, perhaps with a VPN you could get the OTA in a easier way, but wait for a few days to check if OTA is available

I will wait for the end of July and hopefully I hear something about an update showing up in Europe but I'm still very pissed off because this model has been very quickly ignored in favour of the subsequent notched model!! I have never ever seen a company release pretty much identical hardware consecutively!! [emoji80]

I used the dload method on my c675 to update from b130 to b151.. Then used the system update to go to b161
As long as the dload contains the exact ROM for your phone it will work.
Other than that use system update.
HFF is useless to my phone.. Always rejects the update from them.

I am confused myself because for each firmware version, there is ota and fullota and for each of these, there are three files and I'm not sure which one is the actual update. For example if I ignore the B163 for now because it's not approved yet, the B162 OTA for example has three files in it and I am not sure what to do with them. For example, some people say to unzip the update.zip file inside a dload folder and some people say just keep it zipped and put it on the root of internal storage so I'm confused a lot.

In the dload method you must use all 3.. But for your model
I give up on HFF... It's useless now other than downloading full ota maybe.
Let me find the link explaining the dload method... Except change the c675 to your number... On the dload method you will have a fresh device wiped off all your data.
Imho I'd wait till you get it through system... The b161 installed perfect.
I don't think HFF is official and is having problems...I deleted it as none of the files seem to work and always gets rejected.
I'll link to the form that had a detailed dload method I used and was successful with the b151.
For dload always use full ota.. With system update you can use partial.

If you want to try to force an update
Find the rom you want to upgrade to
Download the full ota.... And follow this guide

We have an update every month, perhaps aren't the update you are waiting. In September, we will receive GPU turbo update.
If you don't want unlock the bootloader the only thing you can do is wait, if you don't care about your bootloader, unlock it and look for few ways to flash an update

you Need European SIM to get official updates

That's totally ridiculous because i bought my phone Sim free and unlocked. Updates should come to me anywhere in the world as long as I'm connected!! [emoji80][emoji80][emoji80]

understand
But Huawei updates are based on regions
Only solution is manual flashing
I'm in America with a Indian phone with a American sim.... And I got c675 Indian region update in America..
Just be patient..... You'll get it.
I imported my phone from the UK and using it in Egypt which doesn't have this phone sold officially. I have complained again to the customer service today that I'm not receiving OTA updates and he insisted that I won't be having updates because I'm not using a UK sim and that's their policy so I am seeing now a contradiction between what you're saying and what I was told by the customer service!

agreed. we get updates. sometimes SIM is needed but sometime doesnt. I got bunch of updates on my 6X from China with Indian SIM. anyways, user can dload the full firmware for updating it manually.
Hello seems like my parents are having the same issue. The phones are bought from China and are BKL-AL20.
But looking in about phone it states
Modell: BKL-L09
Version: BKL-L09 8.0.0.110 (C432)
So they seem to be running on very old version. I'm pretty sure that they got OTA updates the first time they opened the phone. When I now try to update the phone says that there are no updates. C432 is Europe and my parents are in Sweden and hence using a Swedish sim-cards.
Is there anyway to get the phones updated, preferably without loosing any data or the hassle of unlocking bootloader and rooting the phones?
Edit: I tried phone updater, HiSuite updater and HiCare updater.

Won't that wipe data?
After resetting my Nokia 6.1 phone, it still cannot find any update. Is anyone also stuck on the June patch ? Is that normal?

I have TA-1043 and August update.
It sucks and Nokia seems to be silent on this. Everyone (or most) who have software build 2_22A_SP01 seem to be stuck on June. If you have a different build you are getting updates.
Same here : Nokia support reply that it's because my operator don't deploy that update over his network...
When I contact my provider he reply that it's not him who manage software updates on my phone.
I will try to contact Nokia support again with build number and the fact that others are stuck like me on June Update.

Bull IT Will come over WIFI. No problem.
No updates found over WiFi or cellular network
Hello,
go to
nokia.com/en_int/phones/security-updates
select nokia 6.1
and you 'll see that only 3 firmwares are on july update.
00WW_2_13B_SP03
00WW_2_22A_SP02
00WW_2_22E_SP01
I have 2_22A_SP01 and even with sim card out, in other words, Wifi only, no update is available and I (and many others) am stuck on June.
The option here is to unlock the bootloader and using OST LA, flash the system image again, there is a thread here to do this. For me everything worked fine, and I'm now on August SP
For people stuck with June Patch and a A or B builds variant, you can follow this guide (no bootloader unlock needed) :
community(dot)phones(dot)nokia(dot)com/support/discussions/topics/7000032724
It works and I'm now with the August Patch and a 2-22E build (I was 2-22A with June Patch before).
Follow exactly the different steps (skip Google account is very important)

It kinda worries me what HMD is doing. The shell is top notch and I actually applaud them for valuing scratch resistance over shatter resistance because one happens in an accident where the other is a constant bugger. But if they are going to do Android One with such problems Google better punish them for not staying up to standard.
Just got July SP on my 1043, however cannot install it...
Finally, phone updated on its own (without special measures), first to July, then to August security patch. Software is now 00WW_2_22E_SP02.
Could unlocked bootloader be the reason I cannot install OTAs ? Because I'm full stock since i flashed back 8.1 firmware using Ntools.
Try clearing data for Google Services Framework. It should work after that. I tried this yesterday but didn't get any updates. I just switch the phone off after that. This morning I powered it on, and 2 updates, July and August came in quickly. Just has to re-connect my google account and all is working well for now.
Hope this helps others.
Hi there, I have recently managed to get Google services installed on my ELS-NX9 (C432) and during my eagerness of updating to the most updated and compatible firmware (according to Firmware Finder) I updated the phone to the 10.1.0.182 (C432E8R4P1) version. I have to say the phone still works fine and have no issues whatsoever (apart from a few freezes when if using Google chrome which all I need to do is to go back to the home page and return to the app to unfreeze it. Annoying when it happens but not the end of the world).
With that being said, I have run safetynet and it shows a fail under cts profile match which leads me to think the firmware I've used is not 100% intended for my device (please correct me if I'm wrong).
Do you know which firmware is the most updated and 100% compatible firmware I should use for my device?
Thank you in advance.
hi
i used in hiproxy: http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G5633/g1604/v409481/f1/ (ELS-LGRP4-OVS 10.1.0.131)
used ictfix solution 1 to install GMS
after a i downgraded and waited a few minutes i got an OTA update to 10.1.0.176 and after that i got a OTA for 11.0.0.151 (C432E3R4P3)
so far everything seems ok. hope this helps u
Update 26.01.2021: i have received a new update 11.0.0.168 december update
A strange thing happened to me:
I received an automatic update yesterday. Everything went normally, everything worked normally.
Later in the store I saw that Google Pay does not allow payment because firmware is Root (it is not) or illegal firmware is installed. And Google Play has shown that the device is not certified.
I tried resetting to factory settings ... without success.
It wasn’t until I installed the older August firmware via Odin that the phone became “legal” again.
This is the firmware INS 20211030.
Has anyone else had such problems?
Edit: it was October Update

As you said this is strange, I did not receive any updates in November. All I got was the October 2021 security patch update.
