[Q] Updating to Lollipop

Hey guys
My friend just bought a new Huawei Mate 7 Gold yesterday and I checked the Android version and it says 4.4.2 Kit-Kat. He'd like to update it to Lollipop and since I have been doing such things for years on Samsung and HTC devices I thought I should help him out by checking the forum first. I found a helpful article about updating it to Lollipop OTA, however it is in German and the translation is terrible, so can anyone point me in the right direction?
As I said, the device is brand new and still has 4.4.2 unmodified Kit-Kat on it.
This is the article I am talking about: http://www.huaweiblog.de/huawei/huawei-mate-7-lollipop-update-download/
Thanks guys!
There's a thread dedicated to this in the general section
Thanks for you reply and for pointing me out to the right thread. From what I've read, it seems as though the Lollipop update is quite unstable nowadays and I should hold off till it's official, correct? I don't want my friend to go through a hassle because of it since he is not very tech-savvy.

I have installed lollipop 5.1.1 beta and its quite good but there's still many bugs. Maybe it is better to wait the official release.
I agree. If your friend is not tech savvy, hold first and wait for official release
It's usable as a daily driver, but no, not as stable as 4.4.2.
Generic overview:
-random reboots, not extremely frequent but they happen.
-some memory issues compared to 4.4.2
-a bit less battery
-some options not present
Hi, someone knows when will be release the official version of lollipop? No betas

Nope, and tbh i'm not extremely eager to run lollipop on most phones right now... Google screwed up pretty bad on this major version.

I second that. While material design is nice to look at, the memory leak and battery drain are causing issues in some lollipop phones

Cubit S600 update question

Hi all,
I have just got a Cubot S600 to try out Android as I have always been a Windows Mobile user.
The phone comes with 5.1 out the box, would it be possible to flash it with 6.0?
Many thanks in advance.

Official update of marshmallow is not released yet for your phone. You can check for updates in your phones settings if you want.cubot hasn't released list of phones to receive the updates either.
You can flash unofficial android 6 custom ROM if it is available
Look it up

Thanks for the reply, I understand that marshmallow is not available.
When I was cooking my own winmo6.5 ROMs I had to only have certain ROMs. I have been out the game a while, would any ROM work, or would I need specific roms ?

You would need device specific ROM or else your phone won't boot.

New guy here. Please be easy on me. :confused: Updates questions and concerns.

Hey everyone,
As stated in the title, I'm a real noob when it comes to rooting/flashing phones. Please bear with me through the stupid questions.
I've started to get sick/bored of my phone running version 4.4.2 with emui 3.0. I bought this phone off Amazon when it came out because I wanted something new. Sammy, LG, etc weren't producing phones I liked.
when the Mate 8 came out with newer software, I wondered what would happen with my phone, and boy did I get some bad news.
I own the MT7-TL10V100R001C00B130 version, which seems to get none of the updates that the Malaysia area phones get.
http://imgur.com/78imLxd
I messaged Huawei Support, and they confirmed the bad news.
http://imgur.com/XtQpgoW
I even tried contacting the UAE support like they suggested, but I haven't gotten a reply back.
I've looked at threads like:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/help/help-please-impossible-to-update-mt7-t3286615
and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/general/huawei-mt7-l09-l10-stock-firmware-ota-t3275784
but in the end, they don't help me very much.
I've given up on any hope of my phone being updated OTA, so I've decided to sign up and post here to ask question(s):
1. Is there a firmware I can download/install to update my phone to something newer even if the builds don't match?
2. If I must result to rooting, I'm willing to give it a try, but then I'd like to have Nougat on the phone. Are there stable builds for this yet? or must I wait longer?
Thanks very much for reading and any help you can provide.

Hi,
To answer your questions:
1) You can download B324 Malaysia from https://mega.nz/#!h1JDnQaB!En6LMDE6hbm22m0xFX2fbWZWwoGX2urEXrPRJaFlRxc, unzip it and put UPDATE.app file in SDCARD/dload folder in root of SDCARD. Then try to update it from the Updater in Settings. You will then have lollipop. Back up your apps/settings etc before, just in case.
2) Not necessary to root, but there are lots of posts in the Mate7 forum that can assist if you do want to root. Nobody knows yet if Nougat will be released for the Mate 7 (I'm thinking unlikely, as we already got Lollipop and Marshmallow, and the phone is two years old, but you never know)
thanks for much for the info.
for option #1, is there any other precaution i need to take? do i simply just copy paste into the sd card?

ZTE Axon 10 Pro 5G a2020n2

Was wondering if anyone is getting anywhere with the A2020N2 or A2020N3 chinese variants of the Axon 10 Pro? I can't seem to find anything aside from the 4g models. I did read a post in my travels that 'Unjustified Dev' was going to release a bootloader unlock for the A2020N2 awhile back but can't find anything more on it.
The phone is great and I was able to uninstall most of the Chinese bloatware but would love to see root so I can push the limits of this phone.
Some info would be greatly appreciated whether it is good news or bad news.
Thanks.
Seem to be making some headway on this.
If you go to this website and translate Chinese to English it looks like someone was successful in unlocking the bootloader and installing Magisk to the a2020n2
https://pianshen.com/article/70191805055/
The claim the tool only works on Android 9 and unfortunately I have already flashed to Android 10 b16 and can't seem to find a way to roll back. I have tried flashing the older zips from the ZTE website to no avail.
If anyone has any other suggestions on rolling back the firmware to Android 9 I would appreciate it.
I found the tool they were talking about on androidfilehost
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962591021
You can only find the firmware for this phone if you to to the chinese site and translate it.
https://www.ztedevices.com/cn/supports/zte-a2020n2-pro/
Anyone on Android 9 that wants to give this a shot? I would recommend doing a full backup so if anything goes wrong you can go back into DFU mode and reflash the original files if you are considering doing this.
Hy! Where did you found the Android 10 update for the 5G variant? Can you send us a link with the update?

Did you actually read the post above... It literally tells you how to find the firmware.
Yes! But the only version that I see it's the v2.2. Is that Android 10? Cause the release note field is empty.
yes, v2.2.0 b16 is android 10. v2.0.0 is android 9.
Hi to all!
I have the A2020N3 version. Someone can explain me what's the difference with the A2020N2 versione?
I'm still on android 9 and I'm wondering if it worths to upgrade to Android 10...some suggestions?
Hey! I found this post but looks a little bit outdated... It's ir possible to update the A2020N3 to Android 10? Is the Axon 10 Pro 5G from Drei Austria.
I received Android 10 update for my A2020N3 (4.6 version), the phone flows like butter! Where I can find a changelog?

Bro it model is 5G model??

[URGENT ANSWER NEEDED] Are the methods mentioned here legit or are they scams/malware/virus?

I know that using unofficial ROMs and firmware is always risky, but I'm wondering if this is legit. I want to update my Vivo Y51A (unsupported) to at least Android 8 (Oreo), and this website claims to have all the supplies needed for that, but would they actually work?

Edit: So it seems that the rooting apps suggested could be dubious. What alternatives (noob-friendly and free) can I use instead, if the rest of this is legit?
Thank you in advance!
Note: I am a noob, please make your answer noob-friendly
It's 11 o'clock at night, do you know where your firmware is?
If there was even the slightest doubt I wouldn't touch it... actions have consequences.

hehe true dont worry im getting help or at least trying to *oof*
Hopefully someone here knows about this variant or has a better plan for you.
My POV: rooting a phone or replacing the stock rom with a custom rom has become a pointless popular sport. At the end of the day, no better device comes out than the one you bought.
To be on the safe side only use rooting tools / custom recoveries / custom ROMs authored by non-chinese people and introduced and provided here on XDA.

Yes I really want a plan apparently LineageOS doesn't have anything for Vivo phones so I need an alternative.

Maybe a better question is why do you want to root it?
