Hello, if anyone is still looking for some OTA screenshots, or proof that the rollout has started. BTW im from Romania
Oh c'mon ! I also live in Romania and nothing yet for me... Anyone else got the OTA update ?
BTW, my carrier is telekom, but I don't think that matters
When will OTA be available in India?
Can anybody received OTA 5.0 in India?

Please make screenshot when you update it. Screenshot of Settings/About Phone. (baseband version,kernelversion,build number)
thanks
I don't think the OTA is country specific. It's done in random batches I think.

Yes, a friend running stock ROM with no root or any modification. Btw, you can download the ota zip from android police and flash the zip using adb sideload with the help of default stock recovery.

Happy for ya, man, but please don't forget about the rest of us. From what I understand, you are one of the 1% and Google await some kinda feedback from this 1% group (sent out automatically by the device) before they proceed to the next step - the 25%. So, please... please do not f*ck with your phone for the next 24-48 hours so that it sends out a positive signal or feedback (whatever), thus making Google move ahead to the 25% phase of the rollout. Here's hoping my device is part of that 25%. *fingers crossed*
I also live in Romania, my carrier is Digi, and the N5 i own is from them. No update yet, been bugging with the check for updates button all day yesterday
I know I could force update but i wanna use the OTA because i wanna see how Google envisioned the whole upgrade experience
Also this will be the only phone i will not be messing around with.
It doesn't matter how many times you mash the "Check for update" button. I read yesterday that they rollout the update to 1% of the devices to check for issues with the upgrade. If you didn't make it in the first wave, you won't force it by checking. Then they release it to 25%, 50% and so on. You can get the OTA from HERE manually, if you want it so badly. I flashed the factory image and didn't restore anything. Be sure to get the KTU84P, as the KTU84Q is only for a very small part of the world.
Edit: I found the Reddit thread that discusses this policy.

As said, the OTA file is available to download and flash manually so just do that as opposed to waiting

Afternoon all, just wondering if anyone could help on a quick problem - my Nexus 6 keeps prompting me to update but when I do it hangs after the reboot with what I assume is the recovery error message (red exclamation mark). I'm already on build LMY48I on 5.1.1, which I was under the impression was the September 2015 security patch. I'm fully stock, not rooted or any other mods. I am abroad currently, which I wouldn't imagine has any effect?
Could anyone offer any help on this or steer me in the right direction for further information.
Thanks in advance.
Latest build is LMY48M. OTA may fail because of corrupted download.
You may wanna update your signature.
Yeah, OK, thanks, not been around these parts for awhile.
Would you mind letting me know how I would go about getting a fresh download of the update using OTA?
Thank for the reply.
Still booting normally? Bootloader locked?
When you get to error with Android logo with tummy open press Power then VolumeUp this will show more details about the error. Write everything down.
Hi, sorry for for delay in replying. Bootloader is locked, boots normally when not trying to apply this update.
Next time I try to update I'll log the error messages and revert back here, thanks for your help.

If you're overseas you may be getting an incorrect build, not quite sure how that works
Strangely I thought it might have something towards do with being in Spain. I'll factory reset when I get home and see if that works.
Me too
Sorry to bump an old thread but the OP describes the EXACT problem I am having. Repeat system update update notifications. It says its downloaded but it goes to error when apply the update. I first got the notification in Qatar. I am unlocked and rootwd nexus 6 but running stock 5.1.1.

There have been serveral updates with version number 5.1.1. What you need to check is the build number.
The latest are LMY48M (most people), LYZ28K (T-Mobile) or LVY48F (Project Fi).

Ah, just re-read your first post. You can't take an OTA-update, since you're rooted. You need to flash a factory image (or relevant parts of one).
Check the stickies for instructions...

I have 47Z installed. I'll use nexus root toolkit to get the latest. Thanks SO MUCH!
Evening all and sorry for delayed response. I've called Google today and they were no help whatsoever, the person I spoke to didn't even know the difference between Android versions and build numbers, I had to explain it to her. Is there any way of checking or finding out what build is being pushed to my phone? Also, will I be able to update to 6.0 when it arrives if I haven't sorted this problem ie how to clear this potentially corrupted download? Am I correct in thinking that I need to be on LMY48M and not on LMY48I - thanks in advance.

At this point you have few choices.
File bug report and wait for resolution.
Try Factory Reset. Using PC try fastboot format userdata and format cache.
Unlock bootloader and flash factory image. Might just well go straight to 6.0 MRA58K. You will loose all your private data either way. Backup all your private stuff.
So have downloaded the MRA58K build of 6.0, attempting to sideload via ADB, device seen, reboot bootloader, into recovery, use ./adb sideload 'file.zip' but getting a footer and signature error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
And how the hell does one update a 5 year old signature on XDA!?
Edit - so just reading around and there are two issues I've noted 1) that I'm going from LMY48I straight to MRA58K and missing out LMY48M or 2) that the factory images can't be sideloaded, they need to use the fastboot scripts. Any ideas what could be causing my errors?

You'll have to find the update from ur current version to the new version. You'll probably have to get LMY48M, didn't see one from I

So I have rooted 5.1.1 and I want to update it to 6.0 via standart sony update over the air. I don't need root anymore and just want a clean 6.0. However after downloading the update phone says its have to reboot to install the update and after that phone reboots in to TWR recovery and nothing happens. Then I click "reboot" and the phone does a standart reboot and then says "update failed".
I tried to delete NDR Utils app but result is the same. Any thoughts?

Rather than try and update the phone, force it to repair the phone. Follow these instructions.
Repair will replace the recovery files and you should be left with 6 (no root)
Be advised that 6 still isn't fixed yet, with lots of bugs and problems still to solve, there is an update due soon that addresses some of them, but personally I think it's too soon to be stuck with a broken OS, just so that I can say I'm an early adopter.

For the Z3c it's only a few weeks, but if you don't believe me, have a read of the MM thread to see how well it works before you start the update.
Wait for the update from Sony, that should fix stuff

Okay, then. Thx.
Hi everyone !
I rooted my Honor 5C a while ago and everything went smoothly. After installing Xposed, some modules and some nice root apps, I decided to take a step forward.
Lately, I heard of MicroG to replace Google Apps and Services. Since I'm actually and for quite some time trying to degooglise myself more and more, it catched my interest. Thus, according to several tutorials, I used Root App Deleter to uninstall GApps, in order to replace them with the MicroG framework. Then I reboot and... well my device was unable to pass the Honor screen. So I went to TWRP recovery menu and tried a factory reset, which changed nothing, so I went deeper in the wipe settings and wiped... pretty much everything yeah. This was quite a stupid thing to do, now I don't even have an OS installed on my phone...
And of course, I've been stupid enough to never did a nandroid backup. Feel free to yell or mock me, I know I really should have...
Anyway, at this point, it seems that the only available option to me would be to flash a stock rom to my device, but I can't find one for the EU version NEM-L51. Actually, I can't find any stock rom for Honor 5C on Huawei site, nor on the web. I did quite some research today and I swear I couldn't find anything, anywhere. And here I am.
Please guys, can someone help me ? I know I'm at fault for not taking my precautions before doing some risky stuff, and I guess it was going to happen to me one of these days, but I hope there is something I can do.
Thanks in advance for reading and eventually trying to help me if you can.
See ya !

Thanks for answering. I installed that software on Windows, but by searching for "NEM-L51", I got a list of several models : NEM-L51C10B141, NEM-L51C432B130, NEM-L51C432B120, NEM-L51C10B121, NEM-L51C432B104 and NEM-L51C432B103.

i guess thats the only thing you can do unless someone else uploads a twrp backup that you can flash.
to start download honor multitool and huawei update extractor. use the unbrick option use lowest Bxxx number first until the phone boots. may have to wait a few minutes
or idk if you can use the 3 button flash method, considering you dont know which version you have installed previously.

I don't know this tool, but after a quick research, it looks like Honor Multitool has been made for Honor 6 and 7 devices. Or am I wrong ? As for Huawei Update Extractor, isn't a tradition file extractor good enough for this ? I thought I could flash the ROM from the TWRP menu, but it's not going to be that easy, right ?
Anyway, links for B103 and B104 are dead. But why some zip are NEM-L51C432Bxxx and others NEM-L51C10Bxxx ? Are they from different devices ? Guess I can try them all regardless, things won't get any worse because of that, right ?
Oh, and some zip files are OTA and others are FULL, but assuming I don't have an OS installed, I guess I have to go for the FULL types, correct ?
Sorry for asking so many questions, I'm pretty unaware of what to do in these circumstances and I really hope I'll be able to get my phone working again...

In the end, I ended trying the second method from there : http://www.gizmoadvices.com/install-stock-firmware-honor-5c-b102/ with a file I got from Huawei Firmware Finder. Basically, in case this can help someone, I extracted the archive content in the internal storage (my phone was plugged to my PC while in TWRP menu), then created a dload folder within which I cut/paste the update.app previously extracted. Then I powered off my device and rebooted it while pressing the volume up, down and power button as you also suggested. After the process completed and another reboot, the whole thing was apparently good to go. For now anyway, I receive phone calls and texts, and network is functioning as well.
Still, I noticed something strange. I downloaded the NEM-L51C10B141 build version, but in my phone info, I have the NEM-L51C432B141, which wasn't even in the list of the zip files from Huawei Firmware Finder. How comes ? Plus, I can't know for sure, but I think I hadn't this version since it is apparently the most recent one available. Is it possible that I have now a more recent build version than my phone had considering it didn't seem to want to update beforehand ? Also, what could be the fallout after that ?
Again, thank you. You've been a huge help, I wouldn't have made it without you. I'll be more careful next time.

Well, I looked at the options and it's clearly not the version I had before, there are some differences here and there. Basically, the build number just refer to the latest security patches, is that it ? So if I have a more recent one, I guess it's just lucky me. Dunno why Huawei didn't propose me to update to it though... And I'm still on Android 6.0.
Sad thing is, this method apparently locked again my bootloader. I guess TWRP is gone too then... Long road ahead.

Let me download it again. Hope it works. If this does work, I will feel a lot better about updating my awesome phone in the future. Coming from Samsung on AT&T hopefully ASUS keeps the updates fairly regular.
Nope, still not working. Oh well, guess I can wait for the raw version.

It's not a physical fingerprint, it's how the phone identifies itself. Follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ro...w-rom-changing-cn-fingerprint-t3969765/page12

I never set a fingerprint. so if I set one now, and then try the update it might work? I guess I will try that and see what happens.

you probably got a Chinese 8gb version with flashed WW firmware, which means no OTA anymore. You gotta flash manually after unlocking the bootloader, rooting and so on.

Thank you so much for pointing me in the right decision, and also although I don't see that many Subaru vehicles in Houston, I plan on getting one this year or maybe next year. Thanks again, up to 1908 now. :good:

I'm on 1906 ww. I understand this phone needs a manual flash each time, do I need to flash with every update using raw files and will this also wipe the phone so every update means a wipe?
Can I root, install twrp and simply update the firmware no issue or is it bs?
How do I actually manually update to this? When I hold down on the options button and choose "more options", it still only says Auto-Download System Update
Do I need to flash through fastboot?
Edit: Nevermind, I restarted my phone and it gave me a pop up saying it sees the update
