[Q] Latest update 10.1.A.1.434

Anyone know if I can update my phone without using the PC Companion software, when I check for updates on my phone it says none are available?

If you have rooted your device, you should be able to flash the new rom. But I don't know why you wouldn't want to use PC Companion.

The reason I didn't want to do that was because I am at work and didn't think I would need it on this pc and my home one, but I have now installed it here as well and it still says no updates available?
Yet according to the sony website it was released yesterday...

I'm getting seriously annoyed that the Sony website has now just been updated to say that in the UK the new firmware version is 434 but I've STILL not received any updates. I've never even received 350v2. What the hell?! Going to end up throwing the phone at the wall at this rate. My phone is unbranded, I don't get it.

When flashing with FlashTool, you don't need to hold power+vol down (or up?), just vol down on a completely turned off phone.

if u install firmware of .03 so a hardware like modem or something else u will need !!!

My friends say hardware between 6002 and 6003 not different, just software lock 6602 lte.
He cant try becouse he country not support lte network.
I just litle confused is true 6602 and 6603 use same hardware?
because i buy 6603 and more expensive than 6602

if i flash the update with the tool, do i lose my warranty ?

more expensive !
but thr s no different between price of c6602 and 03 in sony centers !!!

I have flashed my C6602 with C6603 firmware, and in INFO menu if i choose LTE it just switches back to GSM/WCDMA or what was previous choice.

Is there a place I can get the latest stock roms? I have xperia z which is on three network, would flashing the sony rom remove the branding? And if it does is the warranty lost then?
I know htc roms are available on a website but I can't find one for xperia z.
I want to flash it just because I still have not received the update, but do branded phones get the update at same time as unbranded ones?

Need Chinese EVA-AL00C00B168 / L19 ROM dual sim

Hi guys
Been playing around with the various roms here. Currently have what is supposed to be the L19 B138 firmware installed but it registers as L09 on my device (I suspect the reason is that it's not currently sold in that market).
While the firmware is great for Google integration it's lacking in dual sum management. The Chinese romantic allows for switching primary dims very nicely... not like the one I have now.
So if anyone has the stock Chinese rom to hand for the AL00 varient (3GB/32GB) please do share.
Thanks
Ps I've tried all four roms currently across the threads.

Milamber could you backup and post your stock OEMInfo file before you do anything and post it here.
I never backed mine up and aI need to restore it
You could use the SRK tool ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-t3369797

I can do this tonight for you, in about 12 hours. I have downloaded the tool.
EDIT: I tried, but it says ROOT is required and I do not want to ROOT my phone.

Ah. OK. Thanks anyway. You can unroot your phone just as you can relic the bootloader after unlocking it .

Help Needed P8Lite 02

Yo Guys. I got this phone today. want to upgrade to marsmallow. all i see is updates for firmwares that my phone doesnt have.
I know how to do everthing coz of my xperia m2. The thing is i hav ALE-L02C190B130 is the build number and the upgrade doesnt say if i can upgrade from this, theres no OTA coz im in South Africa... I would like to know if i can upgrade from that build number straight to andriod 6. all of the tut says b170 to upgrade.im confused. Shed some light please

I am also from sa with ale-l02 but mine is C190B120.
I have not upgraded to mm yet because of possibility of balong error which i encountered on my previous L02.
I am also am gonna try to get to 6.0 will tell you what happens. just remember to do nandroid of every partition on phone including boot. Cos when you flash these huawei updates from other countries it gives balong error which is kind of a pain in the ass to fix on our S.A devices.
Quick question tho which carrier are you on?.Cos im on telkom mobile and the devices from cellc and vodacom are ale-l21 according to huawei website.
And how did you get your bootloader unlock code?

You also can check for updates using the HiCare app.

Also From SA here... From all my experience with phones, Updates usually hit us once Europe Gets Them. Just Check Websites like CarbonTesla for Firmware Updates

Thanks in advance.

then it isnt a t-mobile version, which is fine, but do NOT use the firmware i linked if your phone model is the N9600. Bootloaders are different and itll brick your phone

dont limit yourself to this being the last question, ask anything you like. Some of us on XDA will not ridicule you for asking stuff that "you should have searched for"
anyways, no. youll be fine. that being said, if youre flashing firmware from a carrier that diffders from the carrier that it was originally set up for, youll need the modified version of Odin.
