[Q] Huawei Honor H60-L12 ROM - Software Install Failed!

Hi all,
I bought a H60-L12, but the manufacturer had installed the H60-L02 rom (version H60-L02V100R001CHNC00B611).
How can I install the H60-L12 version?
I've already tried to install these 5 ROMS:
H60-L12_EMUI3.0_Android4.4_V100R001CHNC00B307
H60-L12_EMUI3.0_Android4.4_V100R001CHNC00B611
H60-L12-4-4-V100R001CHNC00B118-unicom-32g
H60-L12-4-4-V100R001CHNC00B119-High-unicom
H60-L12-V100R001CHNC00B121
But I always get the error "Software Install Failed!" with the volume + & - & power method.
Also tried with the *#*#2846579#*#* and didn't worked as well.
Tried to install different stock versions and nothing.
What should I do more?
Regards,
Luis
Check INDEX
"For L12 Users ONLY" Sections you might need to restore correct version stock local.prop and build.prop

Hi, yes I did. I wrote the way here (in german)

Scroll down to: 3 Button Restore not working (If you change between variant example L02>L12) Or Partition been changes and cannot restore back Stock version. Use this steps below : -
From huawei club forum, which posted by Chinese, they provided a "middle package" for H60-L02/L12, L01/L03/L11/L21:
Link for refer: http://club.huawei.com/thread-4744481-1-1.html
中转包地址如下:
荣耀6移动版(H60-L01/L03/L11/L21)
荣耀6联通版(H60-L02/L12)
We have to download it, then do upgrade it first before upgrade ROM version.
P/S: If you cannot extract it, may need rename it from chinese name to latin letter.
If need assist in Chinese word, let me know.
Hope this help.

Hi all, I'm new of the forum, and this seems to be exactly the same issue I'm having.
I had to buy a replacement for my H60-L12 and I decided to buy a new one, so I went to the same store and I ordered the same phone.
When it arrived, the label indicate H60-L12, bon on the box and on the back of the phone. But when I switched on, the model name and the serial number indicated the H60-L02.
What is really strange is that, according to what I have been seeing on technical specification on internet, the L02 should have 16GB di memory, while this one has 32GB.
Do you have any idea if it is possible to verify from the IMEI what is the real model of the phone and if it is possible that a L02 firmware version was installed on a L12? I have the B316, I have tried to dowload the B316 for the L12 and put it on the dload folder, then local update, but it fails (probabily because it is the same version?).
I have download the H60-L02/L12 file indicated in the previous post, but it is very small. Is it ok?
After I have installed it using the local update procedure, what should I do?
Thanks!
I will share my experience with this issue.
As it turned out, my L12 was flashed with the wrong firmware and seens as a L02.
No way to restore the correct version with any more or less standard procedure (not even copying the built and prop files from the L12, the upgrad was always failing).
So, for future reference, what I did was:
- use the unbrick function to load a EMUI2.3 version of the firmware (at this point the phone was almost unusable because everything was crashing)
- copied the L12 B316 on the SD in dload directory
- installed using the three button procedure
The upgrade was correctly executed and now everything is working fine.
In case someone was wondering why I didn't use the unbrick function to load the L12 B316, the answer is: I did it, but it was not working. As I said, it seems that the unbrick function leaves a lot of the previous installation behind, and despite the load of the B313 (yes, I tried the 313 to be able to update then to 316 with the complete update package and have a clean installation), the update package was downloaded but not installed, always giving error. Same with the three button procedure.
So, the only way I found has been to revert to 2.3 and then apply the update.
Now I would like to know who flashed the L02 on my L12 and made me loose four days

Stuck on android 6 Southeast Asia market 'specseas' build. How to update to 7 UK?

Hi all,
Having been in contact with Huawei facebook support, they have checked my imei and tell me my Mate 8 is for the Southeast Asia market - no surprise there as I bought it from eBay. So with a Mate 8 from Singapore or thereabout, how do I go about getting a uk rom on it? preferably emui 5 based? If it were a Samsung i'd just flash the normal way through odin, but I don't know with the Mate if region specifics are going to be an issue, or if i might wipe my imei or something horrific.. Is there a tut on updating an NXT-L29 'specseas' unit? I have looked!!
Sites like this http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/08/download-huawei-mate-8-b320-marshmallow-firmware-europe/ say things like 'This update should only be installed on C432 based European Mate 8 handsets'.
I'm currently on NXT-L29C636B193
Any assistance appreciated
Fred
Huawei's facebook team have come back to me saying 'The Mate 8 Build Number should be Mate 8 NXT-L29C432B192 or NXT-L09C432B192 (depends on the exact model number).' This has lead me to http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/10/download-huawei-mate-8-b192-marshmallow-update-europe/#more-9728 where I have downloaded the L29 version and copied the Update.app to my ext card as suggested. Could someone tell me if updating my phone this way is likely to cause me issues? i'm just copying off the entirety of my sd card expecting a full wipe at some point..
After forgetting everything I did yesterday I am now on build NXT-C900B192.
Where the heck do I go now??
currently installing NXT-L29C432B320 via the dload folder..
EDIT: Ok, update done and showing emui 4.1 but build NXT-C900B320. Any suggestions appreciated?
EDIT: Unlocked my bootloader and now copying NXT-L29C432B581 files over to the dload folder.. I'm starting to loose track!
Successful install of NXT-L29C636B560? yesterday then OTA updated to NXT-L29C636B563. Unfortunately the battery life has taken quite a hit, so now going to try NXT-L29C636B585 I guess!
EDIT: Using the firmware finder to download B585
EDIT: B585 installed through the firmware finder app! hopefully i wont get through the battery so quickly now!

the Link for downgrade don't work, is it the article who tell to download "Honor 8 Rollback Package For NEM-L22" to make the roll Back ?
If is this, I already try maybe 30 time to rollBack.... when the installation is ending, I reboot to a black screen asking downloading the last firmware.... If the rollBack Work I must be return to a normal OS screen ?
You got a chinese Phone too (FRD-AL00) ?

Honor 8 AL00 update failed

Hello everyone,
I come to you because I am exhausted about an update that failed, and I have no idea to how to solve this problem although I tried innobracle things since almost two months (after-sales service, forums, test install firmwares ...) !
The problem is that I live in France and I bought a china/asiatic (?) version of the Honor 8 (FRD-AL00) instead of an european version (FRD-AL09) and so I received an update that was not compatible.
I was in Android 7.0 and EMUI 4.1 maybe... and this update soft-bricked the phone (eRecovery menu). Therefore I had to flash a ROM.
First I tried a lot of firmwares with Android 7 and Emui 5.0, but it did not work.
Then I tried to rollback the version. I used an intermediate file to prepare restoring (FRD-LXX EMUI5.0 + Android7.0 to EMUI4.1 + Android6.0) and I installed the firmware FRD-AL10C00B175_android6.0_emuie4.1 (so AL10 and not AL00). That was the first time that I succeed to install something, but that was a chinese version, and actually it does not work, I loop on the setup menu at the launch, when you have to choose the language.
Then I tried install again other firmwares but nothing works! All versions I tried not works "Incompatible with the current version" in eRecovery.
I search a lot on internet, on forums etc... and I did not find anything exept the fact that the original ROM was certainly an edited ROM, installed by the importer, which is an european version that can be installed on AL00.
A solution that worked for people who dit not rollback their version is to flash this edited ROM version (h t t p s : / / yadi.sk/d/_2GHOvkr3Num8B) , from this tutorial (h t t p s : / / translate.google.fr/translate?hl=fr&sl=fr&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.frandroid.com%2Ftopic%2F261625-gros-probleme-mise-%C3%A0-jour-emui%2F%3Fpage%) (original tutorial : h t t p s : / / translate.google.fr/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=fr&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2F4pda.ru%2Fforum%2Findex.php%3Fshowtopic%3D808947%26st%3D4960%23entry66154729&edit-text=&act=url).
I tried and it did not work because I did the rollback maybe.
So... do you have any solution?
I tried to install tens and tens of incompatible firmwares. Do you know what firmware version could work to restart my phone?? (For example I tried all Full-MF versions (h t t p s : / / boycracked.com/2017/06/15/official-huawei-honor-8-frd-al00-stock-rom-firmware/) and a lot in Android 6)
Another solution is to unlock the bootloader to force install the edited Rom Version, but I don't want to totally brick the phone...!! :crying:
So what are your recommendations?
Thank you in advance,
I really hope you can help me!

Thanks for your response, but I have already tried to install all these full update you gave me in the link, and it doesn't work.
I just spent 40 minutes with Honor, to get a contact with the after sale service in China to get the original firmware version that was installed on the phone.
I think if I have the original version I could work.
Actually the only version that success to install (not saying that it's incompatible with the current version) is FRD-AL10C00B175_android6.0_emui4.1, but it doesn't work well (indeed it's for AL10 and not AL00 !)
