Link already provided to download HiSuite. (http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/index.html)
HiSuite is a program developed by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. The most used version is 32.610.28.00.06, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. Upon installation and setup, it defines an auto-start registry entry which makes this program run on each Windows boot for all user logins.
Thanks for the response. I 've installed it on my computer and when I tried updating, it says am on the latest software by still on EMUI 4.0 and I don't understand how that can be the latest version.

NXT-L29C185B520
This is an early build of EMUI 5.0 for Huawei Mate. That’s why it appears to be having issues with Bluetooth, Keyboard input, Permissions, Notifications, Dual SIM Option and SIM compatibility, among other bugs.
You'd to wait for Official Stable Version.
Thanks very much. I guess I will wait for the official build then I will update. If you do get a stable build by the way, kindly hint me on it. Thanks very much for ur help

Hello there,
Last week I received via OTA the latest version of EMUI. Build: `NRD91M test-keys`. I thought the update was succesfull as it hadn't show any errors but today I see that bluetooth is not working. I made a restore defaults and it continues without working. Anyone here had the same problem?
Hi
I have the Same issue. Did you found any solution?
I was also unable to put the hihonor rollback nor firmware on it - Installation stuck at 5%.
mine was rooted before OTA upgrade... maybe the root issue?
FRD-L09 with NRD90M test-keys
Thanks for help or hints
same problem seems that it's happen to all people that unlocked there bootloader and rooted there devices if anyone have solution please tell
yay - after few weeks with a bricked phone I was finnaly able to fix it:
- installed rollback "FRD-L19&L09, from Android 7.0, EMUI 5.0 to Android 6.0 EMUI 4.1, C900B300" from hihonor.com
- installed "FRD-L09, Android 6.0, EMUI 4.1, C432B131" from hihonor.com
- normal over the air update to 7.0 back again - Done.
I'm not sure if they had changed those update.app files or my SD-card (fancy 10class 32GB - stucket at 5%) - this time I used an older 8GB sdcard which works like a charm...
greetings
Latest update from huawei did the following to my phone which was a rooted mate 8. ( losing root access was a given i guess )
No bluetooth
No google account
No file manager
No virtual keyboard
No alarm clock
Google voice set to default with no other alternative....AND it doesn't work!
Themes don't work.
Factory reset stops at around 22% with an exclamation mark
Pretty nifty for a 5 minute "Official" update.
What am i supposed to do with this lump of hardware?
I have my bootloader code, i have srk tool. I was originally on b190 buildnumber, then went to b200...and now this. Can someone please suggest which build number i need so i can then find the right instructions for the downgrade or whatever it's called.
U need Rollback package

if you have Huawei Mate 8 L29 model & if you are on Android Nougat then you need rollback package
Here is the link
http://consumer.huawei.com/sg/mobile-phones/support/downloads/detail/mate-8-sg.htm?id=91647
This is straight from Huawei and it is really a life saver. Only this file will work in dload method for you at this moment especially when you have NRD test keys or want to downgrade form nougat to marshmallow.
Download the file
Extract the update.app
Make a folder in your external SDcard and name it as dload
Place the update.app in that dload folder.
You can dload method 2 ways.
method 1
switch off your phone
press and hold volume up, volume down and power button all together
Once you see EMUI on your screen release your fingers from the phone.
method 2
open your dialer
type *#*#2846579#*#*
select - software upgrade - > SD card upgrade
that's it.
Once you are done. You will be on C900BXX build number. Then you need to dload another firmware. And which firmware you need to flash is based on your phone region and model. Is your phone previous firmware L29C185BXX ? if yes then you have to flash L29C185B180 or B192 according to your model. This is really important. Please share your complete build number.
Once you succeed in these steps then we can discuss how to move forward and what to flash next.
Hope you find this information useful and hope you succeed.

The region is Australia
Build number before this superb update was nxtl29c18b200
Now build number is NRD90 test-keys
Not that im being picky or selfish perhaps but is there a stable firmware which has low power consumption, themes work, better operation performance?
By the way, both of the above mentioned methods don't work. I got an exlamation mark and a message saying update doesn't exist after only 5% of updating
NRD test keys to Stock

So you have NXT-L29C185B200 is that correct? you can check this in settings - > about -> build number
you are not in nougat so please do NOT use the file in my previous post. (that should be used only if you are in nougat)
At the moment you are in marshmallow EMUI 4.0
If you have unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed then flash L29C185B180 (stock firmware)
Link to that firmware - > http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1076/g104/v51422/f1/full/update.zip
For unlocking, installing TWRP you can use SRK tools. I hope you have SRK tools, if not you can get it from this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-t3369797
and from this thread you can find how to use SRK tools to unlock and install TWRP.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/vdo-guide-how-to-srk-tool-huawei-unlock-t3409707
There is a video tutorial on how to do this.
Link to the thread where you can find all Stock firmwares is here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/huawei-mate-8-stock-firmware-official-t3391727
For flashing the firmware
1) Factory reset
2) Format DATA
3) Flash the zip file from the above link.
Android Nougat is Android 7.0 version. and the corresponding firmware's start with L29C185B5XX
First let us get rid of that NRD test keys then you can your phone can be updated to latest firmware easily. I will explain you in detail once you succeed in this step. Don't worry about errors.
Hope you succeed.

I am sorry I should have been more specific. I meant before NRD test keys, your build number was NXT-L29C185B200 ? (C185 is region specific) C432 is for Europe.
And now you have EMUI 5.0? then you can use the rollback package.
Here is the link
http://consumer.huawei.com/sg/mobile...g.htm?id=91647
I thought you were in marshmallow so I suggested you not to use it. But if you are in Android 7.0 (Nougat) then you can use the rollback package.
This rollback package will downgrade your phone back to Marshmallow and then build number might say C900BXX. It should get rid of that NRD test keys.
And after that you have to flash the stock firmware using dload method
Link to that firmware - > [url]http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/d...ull/update.zip[/url]
Correct link - > http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1076/g104/v52952/f1/full/update.zip
Then you can update to any latest firmware. There are many ways to do this.

So I tried to flash with a chinese ROM and after hours searching I found a Chinese STOCK "EMUI 5.0 [7.0] FRD-C00-B368 FullOTA-MF-PV". I installed it with the SD card and dload directory and YES, the phone is work again yeah !
BUT now when I go to phone informations I got this :
Model number : FRD-L19
Build number : NRD90M test-keys
EMUI Version : 5.0
Android Version : 7.0
How it was possible to my phone become a L19 version (EU) after flashing with a China ROM ? And le build number seem to be a test version while a seem used "EMUI 5.0 [7.0] FRD-C00-B368 FullOTA-MF-PV" ??
- My sister live in France so do exist any way to install an EU Rom to get futur OTA update ?
- How can I found a really lastest Chinese Stock rom ?

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) ?

Hi, my mom has mate 8 and we want to hard-format and update it. HUAWEI NXT-L29 model number, L29C636B180 and emui 4.0 android 6.0 . I realized that its quite old but its not receiving any updates.
How can I update it to the latest official version ?
I tried firmware finder with auto dns but it gave an error (missing update files or sth like that). I realized that it was not the same size in app and in updater.
In app it says 2.5 GB but in downloader it was 1.36 GB even ı clicked download the latest full package thing.
Please help
Please check the firmware access first then push it.
