I'm looking for a stock firmware image for the idol 3 5.5 6045i. I am rooted with TWRP 2.8.7.0 on stock Android 5.0.1. In order to use the newer Androud 6 and 7 roms I need to update the stock firmware to Android 6. Any ideas? Also, is there a telegram group for this phone?
there is no stick Android 6.0 firmware. If you are rooted just install Android 6 or 7 custom roms.
Whenever I try to install those Roms, I get an error. Do I need to format the data partition and update TWRP?

I was on a custom build of android 6 and had twrp and then I got an update and installed it. Now I have lost TWRP... Is that even possible? Also when in recovery it says can't mount sdcard!
Was it a custom ROM based on stock 6.0? If it is, it's possible that the update was pushed to the phone because Google sees the phone as running a stock ROM and only a stock recovery can install a stock recovery.
What I don't get is how and why users running custom roms receive and accept stock OTA notification updates.
If you had twrp installed, then the OTA would not install - it would fail.
while downgrading, it seems that I have used the wrong file/s. Now my phone is stuck and I need a TWRP Backup for 3.1 or 4.0 stock rom.
i didnt think a stock rom for marshmallow h60-L12 existed yet? share a link if you find it
couldn't find it .... I'v managed hardly to downgrade from 4.0 to 3.1 and the phone is now working. I used LP Rom H60_EMUI3.1_Android5.1_6.1.1 and after several tries, it installed successfully.
Since i upgrade to marshmallow i tried to install my backup, when i install my backup my idol 3 get in bootloop and don't let me install other roms :crying::crying::crying:
Did you perform an upgrade to stock MM or a custom MM?
To get back to stock, use Alcatel's Mobile Upgrade software. Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/help/return-to-stock-firmware-recovery-t3216077
Hi!
I got samsung xcover 3 with adroid 5.1. Is it possible to update it to android 6.0 without downloading system from unofficial websites?
What's the best/safest way to dit?
Thanks in advice for any answer.
What you want to do is to upgrade Android OS: updates are patches for existing Android OS rolled out by OEM/Carrier if they deem it necessary.
Anyway, to upgrade your Android OS it requires as 1st thing of all things to install a Custom Recovery ( like TWRP ), then flash a Custom ROM ( based on Android 6.0 or newer ) by means of installed Custom Recovery. Take note that both the Custom Recovery and the Custom ROM must be at 100% suitable to your phone.
Hi,
Is there ANY custom rom i can flash coming from a A51 that is ALREADY on Android 12 stock firmware ? i got twrp installed and rooted it with magisk on the stock rom, but whatever firmware i tried (last was the pixel experience 12 unofficial) i just hang in the samsung galaxy screen for ages, and rom doesn't boot. Do i need a custom android 12 kernel too and that's why i doesn't work ? All threads i looked and searched just mention coming from Android 11.
Hello!
I want to say you, that it is impossible to flash a custom rom you want on you galaxy, when it has android 12.
I thought, that I would not be able to flash twrp on my phone with this android version, and I decided to flash android 11 first, and oonlyy then to modify the phone by flash twrp, getting root access and so one.
THE ANSWER IS NO, YOU NEED TO FLASH ANDROID 11 BINARY 5 (!) AT FIRST
