Hi everyone,
I m a little confuse and when I say a little, I mean a lot, about the way to go from a L29C432B582, unlocked bootloader to a ROM with EMUI 8 to Openkirin. I read than oreo isn't available for L29, so have I to flash a Chinese ROM, or something ? Some help could be great. And why not make of this tread an how to for all firmware versions to go to openkirin, but I can figurate this just by myself. Does anyone know my path ? And could you please explain the way you have proceed to go to OpenKirin, or even and other Oreo Rom, from where you come to where you are now. With link to the thread and files you had use, lot of link seems dead. It could be really helpfull for a lot of us.
I will still try to find a way by myself and update this thread, but any help would be really appreciate.
I had think in a first place I had to go to a stock rom, for reach the official update, but if I can't have the EMUI 8 for L29C432 it will be a dead end.
Best regards
You will have to debrand your phone to the chinese version of mate 8 in order to update your phone to oreo. You have the thread with all the instructions in the forum. If you dont do this,you wont be able to flash any open kirin roms.

Hi,
Thanks Leverkusen
Did you make this ? What firmware have you ? Did the update could be done OTA ? Do I have to paid for DC-Unlock ?

Hello guys,
I need some help. My device (Honor 6 L04) is on B109.
Its rooted and I want to install the stock updates on it (so that i will get lollipop and emui 3.1)
Do I need to install the stock firmware first ? I dont really know where to start. I already searched in this forum but there are tooooo many things to watch through.
Maybe you can help me out a little :S
Thanks in advance

So it works now. Got Lolipop + emui 3.1
You need to get the stock rom for your device. But first replace (build.prop + local.prop) -> you need root for that. Then you can go and do the ota's of course. Good Luck!
I've been reading alot of the thread on this forum, about how to flash gem-703L rom to 701/702. But I'm still unsure if it's a good idea to convert your 701/702 to 703, lets say that I wanted to stay stock on my converted 702>703, will the OTA cause any problems ?
I understood that it's not possible to go back to the stock 701/702 rom, unless Huawei decide to make a similar ROM version for 701/702.
I would love to have a feedback from those who has converted their 701/702 to 703 please comment with some pro/cons.

There are no cons so far. Actually there are all pros to upgrading. You'll be on a newer version of Lollipop, you'll get Marshmallow when it drops, you'll have access to custom ROMS and you won't have those 5.0 bugs.
Ive to decide to buy this phone
So im in italy , 701L has the right bands, if I upgrade to 703L for getting marshmellow then I have problema with bands?
If yes then how I get android 6?
Thanks
I did a 701>703 Upgrade and the only con so far is the more complex update process. As far as i know, if you want to stay stock, you have to flash a Custom Boot everytime you want to make an OTA update. So flash TWRP Recovery, flash the latest Custom Boot, flash the appropriate Stock Recovery, do the OTA update.
At least thats is my own experience, please correct me if i am totally wrong.
But this is really the only disadvantage and only if you want to stay stock. In return you get a blazing fast device with the latest OS, features and incredible battery life.

For Marshmellow you have to wait some time.
As @audioralf says here, you do not lose your bands.
I read mamu guides, the first one posted work so on 701l?
Thanks
This one worked for me

I still haven't convert my 702 to 703, I'm not 100% sure about the conversion because I need google apps/contacts and so on. I'm not sure how it's done when I've convert the phone, will I be able to add a google account normally? will all my contacts/mail/calendar sync normally like on the gem 702 ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-x2/help/problems-play-store-t3311823
Is there any catch at all ? I've read that someone had problem with encryption his phone, after converting to 703.
I just want a 100% working phone after the conversion, will no catch at all.
If I'm wrong in any matter please feel free to enlight me
I saw the guide but I dont have the sd card, its needed right ? I just got a fresh phone
anywway im on 701L b003, any link to guide to upgrade this firmware ?
thanks!
Hello guys, I just want to get help with updating my MT7-L09C900B324 TO marshmallow I've noticed that this is a difficult procedure most of all because of the firmwares. Thats why I thought it might be great to gather the best firmwares.. And help people that are in the same situation... Cheers
That is difficult as it depends on whether it's Chinese firmware or international, whether or not it has dual SIM and what region the existing firmware is for. So many combinations.
IMO, only use an update or ROM that has an included pdf stating what versions it can update. Check this against what is installed. Many people brick through haste and ignorance.
You also need stock recovery to do it. Bootloader can be locked or unlocked for OTA or update. I prefer to unroot too, if just an OTA update. I also think it safest to wipe cache and dalvik. Start fresh.

Updating huawei ascend mate 7 to marshmallow
As far as I know it's the Malaysian firmware, I update it manually seems it was taking too long for the Ota to arrive. Of course, from kitkat to lollipop. Now, the Ota supposed to be kicking in but I got nothing.. Do you think it has something to do with the firmware that I have? I thought it was because of that, and believe if I don't change it, will never work
Hey, i need help with my GEM 702. Currently its version 3.0.5 EMUI Build B005. Ive been reading all over about android 6.0 and i want it on my device... yet i go to update my pad and it shows no available updates. Am i doing something wrong? Can anyone help me out please. Idk wat to do... im tec savy, just dont wana brick it by doing something stupid on my part.
Edit: Huawei is useless for support, ive emailed them 4 or 5 times now, asking about it and they just keep sending me to the comsumers website saying my device is international and they cant help me. It looks like you guys are alot more helpful then they are, Thanks
There is no official Android 6 for 702.Only Beta Version for 702.You can unlock the Bootloader and install Twrp and flash another Rom with Android 6.

There's no official OTA android 6.0 update for gem-702L, only beta version.
You need to download the beta firmware here: http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=80246&version=318941&siteCode=tw
unzip, put the dload in your SDcard and manually update.
thank u guys, i appreciate it, not only was it under a day, it was actual useful info, thanks to both of u. Much more help then their customer service. Thanks again!
Hi,
I'm totally new with modifying phone software... So please me gentle with me and give detail instructions. Probably all information is already here in forum, but really do not know which bit I should do/read.
I have got MT7-TL00 and would like to get it upgraded to 5.1 or something.
And most importantly can version be changed to european? Its partly in English, but lots of Chinese.
So is TL00 Chinese and TL10 and like other region version? Is hardware identical, so I could somehow get version changed?
I read few posts and it mentioned rooting flashing etc. so really do not know how to start...
I googled for MT7-TL00-TL10_EMUI3.1_Android5.1_B354.zip, but could not find working download. some links went to Chinese pages.
Would someone be so kind and help this new kid?
I see you have no reply yet so I wanted to share a reply I just posted to another user asking about upgrading, let me/us know where you fail or if you managed
Can i just update straight from 4.4.2 to 6.0 and what is the procedure.? Don't want to brick the phone,.
Hi Mother,
well biggest stopping question is that I have TL00 version and I cannot find upgrade files for it. And I really would like to get European version.
So can I use those TL10 files?
For example download this one
MT7-LO9 5.1.1 Full Firmware
B324 ( Finland_Sweden_Channel-Others ) ----> mega.nz/#!N9QyxQhQ!oVtF9DbJt...00Dm5WXp-efaec
Copy the update.app 'dload' folder in the root directory of phone. And then manually use update app on the phone?
