Hello everyone,
I've been trying to make an update for my ascend p7 for the last couple of weeks. I have b121 and I'm trying to update to get b126 or above, but every time I do it (tried OTA and by trying to put the files into a dload folder (i also triedto go to the update menu and select local update)) it shows me a failed message. I have to add I'm rooted and I have Xposed installed (for which I had to delete a system file, can't remember the name, but all P7 users had to do so for Xposed to work).
What am I doing wrong? Do I need to manually remove the root and all linked programs and then install the update? I don't really care for b126 but if Huawei ever releases android L for my device o want to be able to install it without any trouble.
Thanks a lot!!
have you tried the force update method?
have you flashed a custom recovery?
next time try to use the search..it is explained in almost every thread about flashing a rom how to do that..

I'm sorry I didn't check as I first asked on Reddit and I was on my phone when I posted this.
No I didn't flashed a custom recovery, I might do that for the futur.
I guess you said "force update method" is explained in the "rom flash" threads so I'll check that when I get back home.
thanks for your answer

Thank you.
The factory upgrade can then be applied? I do not want to replace rom, just use backup program. Eg titanium backup
Previous phone, a galaxy gio was running on CM7. I have used the factory rom for 2 days. Therefore, there is no experience regarding the factory upgrades. D
Sorry for that, but i don´t know if Factory Updates can be applied, because there is no newer Rom available.
I don´t found a Download for the Stock Rom that was installed at delivery.
Regards
I've rooted my P7-L00 with the same method and it's ok to do so. Regards
Great to hear the it also works on other Variants of the Ascend P7 too.

Hi.
Does anybody have problem with editing /systems/etc/hosts file? It looks like "HTC S-ON"(system partition read only). I notice that after trying using Adaway(https://sufficientlysecure.org/index.php/adaway/).
On my P7 ist the newest Firmware B121SP01 installed, and i have no Problems to write with RootExplorer on System Partition.
Regards
Hi all,
I just received my Ascend P7-00.
After 2 updates, it is in version P7-L00V100R001C17B122SP01 and impossible to root it with the version 1.9.6 of Root Genius !
If you have any idea how to do it, I'll be glad (I need to remove all chinese apps which are polluting my phone !)

Do you still have these problems? I may be able to help.
I have the same problems with my HUAWEI P7-L10 (P7-L10V100R001C00B116SP03)
I tried RootGenius v1.9.6 and v1.9.4 as well (AntiVirus deactivated) but both times it said that this device is not supported.
Has anyone an idea what I'm doing wrong?

I doubt you are doing anything wrong. I'm guessing you have upgraded your phone since you bought it. In some of the more recent Huawei upgrades for the Ascend P7, changes have been introduced by Huawei that render RootGenius and Vroot incompatible. I found the only answer was to revert the phone to an earlier build, root it with either RootGenius or Vroot and then apply the upgrades through HiSuite. This way you don't lose root.
The original rom for the L10 can be found here:
http://android-host.de/HUAWEI/P7/B121SP01/B121SP01.zip
It's a large download.
Once you have it, you need to extract the zip on your computer and then place the dload folder and its contents (update.app) onto a USB stick or your micro SD card and apply the update (settings/updates/system updates) using either the local update (SD card) or USB drive option. I think this should work but I don't have the same variant as you so I can't test. Nor can I guarantee it.
Most of the info on the P7 is in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2643183
You may want to check it out before you do anything. A lot of the contributors have the L10.
Hope this helps
Thanks @arthios for your trick,
You're right, I made the updates before rooting my device.
Unfortunately, I have a L00 version. I need to find the good ROM.
I'll let you know !

OK. You're in luck. The web site "needrom.com" has ROMs for the L00. You'll need to create an account before you can download. I suggest you take the most recent. I think it's build 119. Download it, extract the file to your computer, copy the dload folder and its contents to either SD or USB and using the phone, apply the update. Once it's all done you can root with RootGenius. I replaced the RootGenius binary with SuperSu from the play store. That's just my personal preference but you don't have to. Once rooted you can apply updates through HiSuite. Suggest you retain the ROM you download in case you need to repeat the exercise at some time in the future.

Hi !
I had the same issue.
I found (somewhere here) an apk called Google Installer which allow you to install Google apps without being rooted.
It helps me to install the synchronization of my contacts from my Google account.

It seems that some guys are working on an alternative recovery. But it still under work !
Concerning custom ROMs, I just find one on a russian site. But for now that's all I found ...
I hope that some developers will fall in love for this device
It could help to have a specific folder in xda !
Hello,
I have been searching for different rom builds and rom build versions trying to get on main european version CUSTC432 and reason is that I want to have latest and official ROM version.
So far i found and tried to flash B126; B133; B602; B609.
I tried local update way and also forced flashing. result still the same.
B126 and B133 I downloaded was marked as CUSTC432 however after flashing I always see CUSTC555
B602 and B609 after flashing doesnt not show any CUSTC version. line with custom version info is not provided in 'About Phone' menu.
Maybe anyone know and can help me to find the way to get version CUSTC432?
don't know what you exactly mean and want..
but my cust is what you are searching,right?
Gesendet von HUAWEI Ascend P7-L10 B609 - rooted
yes, right. that one is what I wanted to get as well
ok felas, after spending 4 days finally i managed to get rid of CUSTC555 version.
It was strange how it worked but maybe for some other people it will work same way, so make it on your own risk.
I found in one of huawei provided software packages additional update.app.
I copied this and started 'local update'
This removed everything(format data, format cache) from internal card, as well as it changed rom version to CUSTC432.
Installation of the update.app actually failed on the end however cleanup scripts probably were the only thing needed.
Straight after reboot I got OTA from huawei for B609 (this was my main target to get)
attached update.app correct size should be around 18KB
extract it and place on sdcard/dload/

Mine is CUSTC10D609, is it worth to keep it ?
I think 432 has all functions included so nothing comes to my mind why would you need that to keep

I did everything as you mentioned above, currently im on b609, but when i tried to local update, it failed, but i'm still on the same CUSTC
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=57504273
Try this maybe it will work
I missed to notice that you are on b609. I think these debranding methods will work only on b133.
So if you may try to rollback to b133 and then try these update packages.
Basically I've followed a few different methods and got it to work.
Using the firmware finder apk I downloaded the B182 (full) rom.
While this is downloading... Using es Explorer or similar create a folder called hwff in the root of your main storage.
When it has finished downloading...
Check the md5.
Unpack it.
Move to dload.
Then turn it off.
Turn back on using the 3 finger method.
This will then install B182.
Note: when it reboots it will stay on the Huawei red logo for a few minutes.
Let it finish and you will have B182 working.
***********
Now to update to B361.
I used the combination of Huawei updater 2.0 and HiSense to update.
It found it with no issues and I just left it to update.
**********
Update to B378-FULL
This was simply an OTA update through the normal Settings > Update menu.
Fairly painless, just time consuming really.

Man the update path on these huawei's is killing me. I've only just taken the plunge. Accidentally turned my c432 into a c900 by double flashing a b166 rom. Took me best part of a day to get it back to c432b166!
The amount of slow crappy downloads we have to make in order to make incremental upgrades. Is there not a way that we can just go straight into a later build without all these rollups?
You can just use the proxy install method within the Firmware Finder app, its very easy.
Just google "how to. using firmware finder youtube" as I cant post direct link, then 99% of the work is done for you
Hutchism: Sadly not, from what I've seen you can only jump to Nougat from B182 and nothing earlier - Don't ask me why... Makes NO sense!
Natchi: The proxy install method did not work for me. That's why I did it the way I did... All I know is that it worked and I'm running Nougat.

Hi there, followed your first step with no issues - finally on B182! Struggling to find the B361 update using Hisuite (windows PC), HiCare (app) or the Update app.
Any advice on how to do this? What is Updater 2.0 please?
Thanks very much!

Hi,
You can use this link to download the rollback package
http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=91623&version=357533&siteCode=se
once you download it.
unzip and put the update.app in the dload folder on your external sdcard in your phone.
you have to manually create this folder in your external sdcard.
once you do this
type
*#*#2846579#*#* in your phone dialer
then you will get a menu
in that select
SD card upgrade
then you wait.
it will reboot and finish rolling back to stock.
Remember this will get you back to stock rom, but you will have to upgrade to some other ROM for your L09 after rolling back.
I do not have Huawei P9 but I have Huawei Mate 8 & Huawei Mediapad M3. I feel that there are lot of similarities between Huawei phones & that is why I feel you can make it work using these steps.
Hope this solves your problem.
For updating to EMUI 5.0
you can use firmware finder from play store.
Install the app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teammt.gmanrainy.huaweifirmwarefinder
in the settings of this firmware finder app
switch on "add on proxy"
now go to your WIFI-settings
tap and hold your WIFI connection
modify network - select manual
there you put the following
proxy is
localhost
port is
8080
that's it save.
then go to firmware finder app
search
download the right firmware for your P9 L09 and then click on "send the firmware to updater"
now
go to settings
update -> you should see the OTA for EMUI 5.0
But don't this now. First you have to rollback and only after that go for this EMUI 5.0 update.
Don't forget. Please click on :good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good:

I'm currently running a P9 L09, running EVA-L09C432B182, after rollback
PHONE Unlocked
FRP Unlock
Factory Recovery
I've tried the firmware finder, confirming firmware ok with IMEI. My version for some reason does not have the "send the firmware to updater", and I have configured the proxy, and installed the proxy. I've tried unzipping the downloaded update.zip by firmware finder, and dropping it into the dload folder.
It seems every version I try, its fails at 5%. What am I doing wrong.
Can anyone tell me a system that works to get back to the latest stock nougat.

Have you tried their consumer site? Just download the original, i did so, and the rest will come OTA.
Good morning all:
I am having a problem with my phone.
The history...
Bought a P9 EVA-L19 in Belgium and it came originally with version B127 (I think).
So, I decided to root it and so I used SRKTool to unlock bootloader, install TWRP and root.
Problems started when I tried to update to a newer ROM.
It lost the original look and some functionalities, like the random imagens in lock screen and some original apps (FM Radio?)
In the meantime I managed to update to B137. The look was ugly but I managed to solve it using Nova Launcher.
Then the phone started giving me the message there was an update to B342 but everything fails.
I tried to reblock bootloader with SRKTool but it fails, I tried to download and install with dload method and fails.
So, I'm stuck with B137.
I even tried to debrand using this method: https://youtu.be/JZVsIKtdgV4
But after the first step "changing oeminfo and custom.bin" I even lost the keyboard so I gave up following the next steps.
So now my phone has a ROM EVA-L19900B137 and I can't find a way of updating to android 7.0 and I can't go back to the original ROM with all the functions.
Tha only thing I haven't tried is an Update using TWRP.
Is there a final release of 7.0 that can be flashed using TWRP?
Or even the original ROM?
(no, I know I am stupid but didn't made a backup before root and updates :crying: )
Thank you so much in, in advance, for your time.
I am not expert in these stuff but when I completely removed my system I installed a rom with different cust after that I got c900 then again I removed system and just installed the old cust "c185" and version b161 and then it worked like a charm even updates are working
your original dload method should be working. Just flash an original firmware with your original cust. This will lock your bootloader and turn your phone to original. You will even get the OTA updates.
After that if there is still no nougat update for your phone, there is 2 option. 1st one is check if there is an update that has the same cust number with your phone and apply it.
If not so, you can do a debranding procedure. Here is the link for it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/guide-debranding-to-c432-updating-to-t3551523
I managed to fix it.
Just in case someone has the same problem, I used the solutions/methods described on these threads:
