p7 marshmallow update. We make a stand. - Huawei Ascend P7

Hello fellow p7 owners,
I was annoyed as the rest of you with huawei's last statement (well, lack of statement to be precise). They barely released the lollipop update which did not reach everyone and now they seem to ignore updating it to marshmallow. This is ridiculous.
Tonight we shall stand. I say that we should annoy the hell out of them to know not to mess with us. We can send messages to their contact emails, comment and post on their social pages and perhaps call them if possible and to keep it organised, we should include a common hashtag ( marshmallow_for_ascend_p7).
Please, make sure to include the hashtag as well when contacting them by email. It will hopefully give the feeling that this is an organised movement. I can't put the links to their social pages unfortunately but you can find them easily if you write huawei facebook or huawei twitter in google.
And thanks in advance to all those who will participate.

I think that this is pointless effort! even if they confirm marshmallow, with their "fast" development we will hopefully get beta version (full of bugs!) approx in summer of 2020. and by then i will already have different phone from different manufacturer! that's for sure!

I thinking huawei never going for this update, because lollipop still not Works well a lot of bugs and i think it's a shame that huawei brings a not working update. They are only bring new phones to the market and thats it. updates are not necessary i think. Sorry for my bad english.

I think its a fake...
Nobody uses cwm in p7.
On xda i cant find anything.
It's fake on obviously add new says xda tutorial and that's nothing in this section on it or the other areas for our p7.
As above no cwm on p7 twm is what is used it seems, also he doesn't state model number remember there all imcompatible the roms as all the l10 people are unhappy that's no Dev emui 3 ROM or that device.
The kernel has only been recently released publicly for our devices and you will see any custom rom on this forum is a early test version.
The screenshot is edited KOT49H is the 4.4.2 build number lollipop uses something else and is a white background I'm running it on my nexus 10 right now.
Also emui 3.0 on 4.4 isn't out till next week.
I do hope huawei release a v5 lolipop rom but when or if they will announce it I don't know.
Allot of companies like to sell new devices than update them to the new versions.
These scams have been going round for years for many things not just android Roms where they take something and sightly edit it and put links behind a survey host.
If you need anymore proof it's a scam it has URL stuff to rewrite the article as you can see here on my attempt at a funny test.
http://www.lollipop-rom.org/mp3-/this-site-is-a-scam-dont-use-this-guide-to-update-6124.html
Also since yesterday when I sent a message inquiring about things the person quietly changed the screenshots and stuff from a black to white background based on my inquiry to fool people even more.
Just found out the comments are in an iframe from a totally different site as well as other things by looking at the site code.
Here is the WHOIS details of the site with contact details of the owner if anyone is wondering.
Going a google I found other sites linked to the email related to android etc and a forex scam thing.
Also a registered street address in indonesia connected to the accounts.
I have compiled some info and submitted it to google the best I can as there's no official way to submit this stuff.
So for now this thread can die until Huawei announces a proper lollipop version.
Android 5 and down want to downgrade what can i do ?

In The Dark About Lollipop/EMUI update

in the dark about Lollipop/EMUI update
I'm wondering why Huawei has decided that, besides delivering the option to beta-test, not to inform us on at least an idea of when the update will come out.
I think it's just strange that they do give out the beta and have the testing period come and go without even the smallest bit of info.
What about "The beta testing period has ended and we would like to thank everyone who has helped us by updating and giving feedback, we're going to work to improve your huawei experience to the fullest."
Or even "Keep in mind that delays are definitely a possibility but we are trying to get the update out to your ascend p7 before the end of oktober"? That would relieve so much of the tension that I see on multiple social media channels and to some extent this forum.
I just want to start a discussion though if you have any info I'd appreciate it a lot.

Well that put my mind somewhat at ease. I thank you kind stranger.

there will be no marshmallow for the axon elite

Hey Guys
I spent a long time dealing with ztes awful support trying to get to the bottom of will we get any updates for the elite i did point out the chinese rom almost is perfect so it would be minimal effort and the manager replied this ?
it seems they dont care about the elite or pro anymore in favour of the new 7 and it seems they dont care about us as customers either im sure being abandoned supper quick is going to put people off buying there devices in the future i know for a fact this is my first and last zte device i hope the new google pixel is good
Dear valued ZTE customer,
Thank you for contacting ZTE.
We are sorry for all the inconvenience caused to you.
We were trying to collect some information from you after we received your E-mail, so that we could offer you more quickly and specific help. That's the reason why we were trying to collect the information like IMEI numbers from you in our previous
E-mail. Without those information, it would take a little longer for us to get the information from our concern department. We are sorry for the misunderstanding during the process.
And we are sorry to tell you that ZTE Axon Elite supports only Android 5.1. There is no Android 6 update plan so far.
Should there be further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us with previous E-mail history.
Best regards,
Really sad that they cannot provide even one major update to the phone.
"And we are sorry to tell you that ZTE Axon Elite supports only Android 5.1. There is no Android 6 update plan so far. " <-- It only supports 5.0.2 or is there coming 5.1 update....Think not.
My first ZTE phone and looks like its gonna be the last one.
This contradicts the message from @siukee that the Axon Elite will upgrade to Nougat!

all zte do is false promises though if they couldnt even do marshmallow why would they do nougat
Modified 6.0.1 is working great.

is anyone there?!?

Hello? Hellllooooo?? Is it me or has this Honor 5C threads been abandoned? Hardly anyone is posting anything anymore it seems to me. The themes thread has been idle for months, no themes posted to download or even suggestions of where to go. I've never learnt how to make my own themes or I would post. I did download an app from the playstore to customise/mod themes and it's actually quite good, you can change the nav bar from loads of options and the status bar too. Change the font lock screen, wallpapers etc etc.
And what about the accessories thread, it's hardly been touched....
C'mon honorable people's, let's keep celebrating this nifty little device :fingers-crossed:
Well I guess I just answered my own question...
No one is out there with anything worthwhile to post...:crying:
40 people's have viewed this post and not a single reply!
Honor need to get their arses into gear and roll out the nougat+emui 5. Clearly everyone is waiting for this update...
Hopefully normal service will resume on xda 5C after that :fingers-crossed:
I'm checking daily for new updates/themes/threads but hardly anyone is active. I got beta emui 5 nougat 7 that i flashed like 1 month ago that someone posted here on xda, its working great and clean. Still waiting for official release tho.
Hope honor users become more active.
honestly, 5c community = p9 community, same roms, same mods..... (just modified to be usable on 5c).

Redmi S2 Official Suspended Development

Hey MIUI'ers......
Today, I think I have no words to express the biggest...... What do u call it as......Hmm.... FAILURE OF XIAOMI I guess... Ok, let's go a year or a two back. The time when they launched the great budget camera smartphone- Redmi S2/Y2. This phone overall is a great phone with all the decent entry level specs. From the hardware side, I have no complaints at all. Overall everything was great. BUT, coming to the software, well, that's where the problem began to matter! They provided a 32bit ROM on a 64bit processor! I mean, like for real? Why? What was the matter? Ok, there was a lot of conflict for that issue. Then, it silenced a bit cause we used thought it'll be solved by an OTA update. But guess what? No! Xiaomi claims that their 'users' will lose their valuable data while shifting from a 32bit ROM to 64bit! So, they claimed they won't release the update for 64bit ROM. Well, y'all want our reply for that? Let the data go! We want that 64bit ROM, no matter what! Well ok, even after that, the company promised that they will definitely provide up-to-date software updates, at any cost no matter what! The Android Pie update and the MIUI 11 as well. They promised us users that they will release it before Q1 of the year 2019. We waited for that update eagerly. We were so eager for that update. It was suspended for 1 week. Ok, we'll wait for another. Even the second week. Ok, we'll wait for that next. Even the next, it was suspended. Ok, waiting for the next. And still this continued on and now, Q1 is over and Q2 has begun. And now, Xiaomi claims that they will release it in Q2! And we're like, "WHAT! IS THIS EVEN HAPPENING??? WHAT IS THEIR PROBLEM?" We S2/Y2 users have suffered a lot already. We don't have developers working on our phone at all. We just got few developers and we're grateful for them. All of us. But what did you do huh? Didn't provide a 64bit ROM, didn't release the kernel sources properly (most of it is broken) and now, didn't provide up-to-date software updates. You all appointed Beta Testers for this phone right? What happened to them? One leaked the ROM. How are you sure that the others won't? I BET YOU GUYS! ALMOST QUARTER PERCENT OF YOUR REDMI S2 BETA TESTERS DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO TAKE LOGS FROM THEIR PHONE! You appointed them just because they were always active on MI FORUM. And for no other reason. Look at the person's abilities and experience. Don't just look how much time they're online on
"Your Forum."
Judge us by our skills and experience.
And about the 64bit ROM, we don't care about our data. Provide us the ROM.
And about the Android Pie update, please do accept the fact that,
"YOU FAILED". The whole Redmi S2 Beta Team failed! You couldn't keep up to your word.
So...... Yeah, we still hope a little from you that you will release the Pie update soon!
To Moderators: This may seem a little bit rude, but please, once, just for once stand in our position and think about this and please do not delete this
thread! Kindly understand us users!
Even you guys would've done the same if you owned this device.
Also please do check out the thread in Mi Forum.
Thank you
This is it!
You said what all of us wanted to say.
All of us don't understand what is the problem with S2/Y2 'cause is a really amazing phone, but that haven't an support.
It's so hard develop a 64-bit rom for a phone that have Snapdragon 625?
It's look like a negligency of Xiaomi...
It's an so singular phone, why it haven't attention?

First, The development is still going on, just that the internal team is ripped. Second, Xiaomi already provided you the right information of this device. While you were buying why don't you ask them is the device came with arm64-v8a or armeabi-v7a?
I'm tired of seeing people post these kind of things because it doesn't even make sense for me.
Xiaomi didn't claim the device come with arm64-v8a. What Xiaomi claim is the device is arm64-v8a capable (64 bit Snapdragon 625)
