B166 > B378-FULL How I did it.

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!
Sam

Hi Sam,
You can find the updater here;

Resolved Missing apps

I've resolved the mistery of missing apps after update to 370 or 371. you need to change your drawer from settings
How to do:
Settings> Home Style> Drawer
tested by me all apps like calc and co will be appear

Thank you for the suggestion, but calc and so on (I cannot even know the list of missing apps) are nowhere to be found, even in Drawer view!
I just updated from L31C432B161 to 371.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance,
Eric.

I don't know, this was my experience. after upgrade home was without some apps and i've resolved in that way.
According to me you have to downgrade to MM (there is a guide in the forum) and to upgrade with the OTA that was released for all, (so don't do it manually). good luck

Thanks! I did however proceed with the OTA update (not manually through SC card), but it seems that there are several versions of the update. One is 1.25GB and is missing some apps and gives bluetooth problems, another version is 1.99GB and seems to be OK!

Thank you, but I believe it is not the same: on the forum we have on one side the update.app and on the other side the data_full, and I believe maybe you haveone 1.9GB file with the full package? Maybe I am mistaken!

You Need the data_full

Yes I do, but I thought it would be cool if someone could upload the whole package.
I will try to install the data_full through dload on SD card.

I did not try in the end... I tried to dload B370 but it does not work because "incompatible version". I should try to OTA or dload B371 and then dload data_full, but I guess it will not work since it is for B370, not B371 and I am fed up with restoring all data on my phone for now!
I think I will way a bit until the official OTA comes out or someone else finds a solution. :/

I downgraded from B161 to B160 and was able to download B370 (1.9GB).
Downloading as I speak.

1.99 package are two separate files. when the program is downloading 1.99 it is downloading 2 files. so it's the same for you to flash only the data_full

Thank you @cmax24, I solved my problem by rolling back from B161 to B160 through dload, then MyCare found B370 (1.99GB) and... voilà! I was not able to take a look at the downloaded file(s), as I proceeded with the update immediately and the files were consequently deleted. :/
Thanks for your help!

My device is the FRD-L09C185B403
Why haven't I got the Oreo update with EMUI 8 yet...other models of honor 8 seems to have got it.
Is there anyway I can get an update without complex procedures like rooting and flashing.

Should I update? (L09C636B168)

Hello I have a P9 EVA-L09C636B134. I live in the US.
EMUI 4.1
Android 6.0
Phone works ok, it feels slow at times. A reboot usually fixes it for a day.
I have my FIRST EVER UPDATE from the updater (B168). Should I do it? It says there are 2 patches: first one is entirely in chinese, the second one says a few things like add watermarks, fix UI issue, optimize startup, etc.

Yes. Why are you still on marshmallow? Nougat has been available since last year.

I read that the update made their phones use more battery or something. Also I don't know how to manually update, I assumed it would hit this updater thing but I never got an update off the updater. No risk to update you think? I should just do it?

Im on latest firmware and I get 5-6 hours sot, emui 5 performs much better and you can use greenify for better battery life. I think you should update because we are getting emui 8 soon which has machine learning and provides better performance and battery.

OTA = Over the Air. Official update delivered by Huawei. Go to Settings > System Update and check for updates.
FirmwareFinder = App to show/browse/download available and future firmware updates on Huaweis servers. Only necessary for those who flash updates manually.
In your case go to System Update. There should be an update. Maybe you have to do this a couple of times to reach latest Nougat-Version. Good luck!

1. Set proxy settings on your wifi: (Server: localhost Port: 8080)
2. Search your model number
3. Select an update package (FullOTA-MF recommended) (FullOTA-MF-PV for android version updates)
4. Select in-app proxy (should get a notification proxy is running)
5. Download the package in system updater

Thank you. Perhaps I did something wrong.
1) set proxy to "localhost" and port "8080"
2) my model number was there, clicked it
3) went back to check settings: settings are (show packages for current region OFF, in app proxy port 8080, use simple OFF, show only fullOTA ON)
4) clicked first package (full OTA - MF)
5) clicked in app proxy
6) go to "updater" in settings
7) updater has package, click download and install
8) error "package checksum error." (immediately, before 1% downloaded).
Is it possible I need to not update the most recent one? I am still on android 6.0, EMUI 4.1 and like I said never had any other update OTA before (never used firmware finder). Thank you!
edit: restarted the phone, the package is now gone. Maybe I should do a different package, maybe an older one, not the most recent one?

Try the next build number up from your current one, one by one. When you get to the last marshmallow build, install the PV package to get to nougat.

Ok thanks, I am trying the oldest build B361 from B168. The download started.
There are 19 total packages, 14 before the first VD package. Holy **** this is going to take forever!
Thank you very much for your help.
Can you explain why these dont come automatically, why I need to do this manual process? Is it because I am in the US?
Also why do I need this proxy port thing?
Thanks again!

You just need the proxy so the package goes to your updater. You can set it back to default after.
What model number do you have?

There is no option for B193. all of the packages are in the 300's.
The download finished (I think) but it could not install. It said I needed to free up some space. I uninstalled some apps and now it will not let me view the progress (I clicked new custom version, it just takes me back to my setting page). in my notification screen, it as EMU download percetnage at -930% and it is not moving. I tried restarting a few times it all stays the same. Current version still says B168.
edit: I clicked menu and then "download latest full package" and it seemed to have reset everything. Should I try this package again? To repeat, this is the oldest package on firmware finder, B361. I also noticed there are duplicates in firmware finder... and some of the packages are for L09,L19 and L29, these are all safe to download? Should I keep doing oldest 1 by 1?
Thanks again for your help, sorry I am so noob.

No August update?

A lot of users are saying they got an update with August security patches and other improvements.
But now it's almost the end of August and I haven't have got any update after the July update.
Build number: LLD-AL10 8.0.0.170(C675)
Varient:Indian
Any help?

1.) Is your boot-loader unlocked ?
2.) Do you have a Custom Kernel or Recovery Installed?
3.) Are you Rooted?
If the answer is yes to any of them then thats why your not getting any OTA's, If Yes is on 1.) then simply issue the fastboot command to relock the device "fastboot oem relock <bootloader-code>" If its yes to 2.) / 3.) Then your going to need to flash the phone back to stock before then relocking the bootloader.

1) Was unlocked
2)Had TWRP
3)Was rooted
I switched back to stock because of constant bugs especially the camera(what's the use of keeping a camera oriented phone in the pocket if it's camera is of no use?)
I'd used HuRupdater to flash the firmware. Now bootloader's relocked and everything's working fine except updates.
I think I flashed the wrong firmware maybe ( I forgot the build number so had to guess. I was sure I had an LLD-AL10 and that there was a C675 and 8.0 in the build number. I matched the changelog with that of the last update I got and then I kinda found out that everything matched to LLD-AL10 8.0.0.170(C675) )
Would one stop getting updates if they installed wrong firmware?
Everything works fine except updates.( And the bootloader 'relocked' status in fastboot).
Should I just flash the August update with HuRupdater( that's gonna be a lot of hassle as I have to unlock bootloader and do all those stuff) or can I update via any other method?

Right you can use Firmware finder on your phone which is a good start.
So using FF select then next version up from your current and only select a OTA-MF, then make sure its for your phone by clicking check firmware access.
If its for your phone then simply use the in-app proxie and connect to a wifi point. Once you have done this edit that Wifi via Settings and change the Proxie to Localhost port 8080. Then go the System and Update.
Now it should download the small version OTA to your phone and reboot to try to install it, it it goes thought and installs without error then great, if it errors out when you boot back into android it will offer the Full OTA without using FF to which will then flash proper without losing data then see if OTA's work after that.

I checked and this is what happened.
FF detected my phone as LLD-AL10C675
The latest update that's is approved is
LLD-AL10 8.0.0.181(C675CUSTC675D1)
It is B181
But that update is from June. So I searched for LLD-AL10 and pressed ok , so that it shows all firmwares for lld al10.
And I think I found the one I have currently installed(build number and changelog matches) LLD-AL10 8.0.0.170(C675CUSTC675D1). It is from 11/7/2018. Everything above says either firmware not approved or has a wierd term cn in the available models section.
This is something I quite don't understand. When I check firmware access it says lld-al10:all-cn.
I think cn stands for China.( Uploading screenshot)
Would it be safe for me to install the update?
Also is it necessary to download the update just above the one I have installed now or can I skip to the latest one?
Sorry if that's a lot of questions.

I'm in a tight corner now.
I can't get any updates using the dns method or the in app proxy method.
This sucks as I was able to get an update using the dns method 3 weeks back. I didn't install it. I checked for updates, it showed updates, then I stopped dns and things went back to how it was(no updates ?). Today I tried again and nothing happened.
Crazy phone?

Are you selecting the smaller updates as it will not work with full ota's any more.

Yup I'm sure I did those right. I tried both the VPN and proxy methods. As I told VPN used to work.
Anyways I'm gonna wait and try it a few more times. Then I might use HuRupdater.

OMFG bro I fixed it.
You see Huawei had rolled out an update for the 'system update' app through playstore. I had updated it. And after I uninstalled the update for it, things are starting to work again ?.
Only 3 questions remains.
1) Can I install firmware that is not approved?
2)Is it necessary to install the update just above the version I
have currently installed?
3)Is it okay if FF says it's approved but has the part LLD-AL10-
all-cn:all ?
Does the cn part matter ?
Would be very grateful if you could help

1) Yes
2) No
3) CN= China. Personally I wouldn't, plus I don't speak Chinese , why would you want to ? I also like having full access to Google playstore.
On an aside, I'm beginning to get the impression you won't be happy till you really brick your phone . :laugh::laugh:

Well it worked for me from going from LLD-L31c432b133 to LLD-L31c432b136 as the small OTA came down failed to install so then it downloaded the full version are you sure your setting the WiFi to use the proxies using localhost and port 8080?

I have tried this procedure more than three times and it just doesn't work. I have the same model version C432 and the same firmware B133. I even downloaded the full Ota file and tried through SD card update ("#" #2846579#"#"), still nothing. When I connect it to Hisuite it says that I have the last official version. Any suggestions?

I used the FF app on mobile then used in app proxie connected to a wifi point and edited the connection to enable proxie on localhost port 8080. I also only downloaded only the small OTA, however it will fail to install then once you rebooted back into android go system update and then press the 3 dots and go for Full Download that will fix it.
Just a point you may have the same Firmware even the same model but they are not made equal.
Also check Google play store app for Huawei System Update it should look like the picture that's attached then click uninstall and reinstall install the app too before starting as reinstalling that app can help alot.

Many thanks for your prompt reply.
So Ive already done all this because it may be related but no luck.Last time I used FF was to get the B133 which already didnt work on the 7th August,I then uninstalled the FF app,stopped the proxy localhost etc. and right after that I did the update check through system update and the B133 FULL was offered to download,so the B133 was made properly through system update right after all the procedure with the FF.

Try uninstalling the update for the system update app then use the VPN or proxy method.
Maybe the update just hasn't reached you like me.

Update Honor 9 lite LLD-AL10 8.0.0.100 (C675) by OTA Possible or NO ?

Hello
I would like to update my Honor 9 lite ordered a china
But It seemsthe OTA update does not work in France for this mode Yes or No ?
I just read almost every page of this thread but I must admit that I am not enough to succeed to make all these manipulations.
I managed to download 3 file of the latest update Huawei Firmware Finder.
I have 1 file (update.zip), 1 (update_data_full_public.zip) and another (update_full_LLD-L22A_hw_in.zip)
But now I do not know how to update the firmware with these 3 files.
Yes I am lost because I can not find a simple method to update my firmware.
I used the Huawei Firmware Finder Android application, but I can not start an update even though I downloaded the files as what by the proxi as advised or go through a DNS.
Yes I am a novice but I would like to successfully update this smartphone.
Thank you for your help and advice
Sorry for my english I am using Google translator
Thank you to all of you

Its not that complicated even though it might seen tricky.
There are two ways to do this:
1)firmware finder(Android app)
You can use firmware finder's update through proxy or dns method.
But before you do that go to play store and search for "system update". In the result you can see the EMUI system update app. Click it and uninstall the updates.
Then open firmware finder(Android app) and go to the firmware you want to install. You can find dns method and proxy method there. DNS would be easier but both works.
Choose whichever you want. Select the auto mode for more ease of installing. Then check for updates from the settings app and you will hopefully find the update listed. Download it like normal OTA update and then it'll be installed.
Points to consider:
*This will only work with a locked bootloader and if it is unlocked relock it
*It's recommend to download only full updates as these will have less chance of failing
*Make sure that you only download approved firmwares otherwise the update will be abandoned after download (means you wasted your data for nothing)
*Choose which firmware to install carefully and try to stick with your varient as installing other varient's firmware may fail or cause bugs
2)Through HuRupdater
This is not recommended if you're not familiar with rooting or bootloader unlocks
If you don't have an unlock code then you cannot proceed as honor stopped giving bootloader unlock codes so if you don't have your code keep trying the first method
You can use the firmware finder for PC or Android.
Download all 3 files of the firmware (ONLY FULL OTAs)
Then unlock the bootloader(if not done yet)
Flash a twrp for our device
Then download HuRupdater
Follow the guidelines: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
Long story short, you need to rename the three files to "update.zip" , "update_all_hw.zip" and "update_data_public.zip"
Then keep all three files and HuRupdater .zip in the same folder. Using TWRP flash the HurUpdater.zip file(not others)
After flashing is done relock the bootloader to recieve further OTA Updates.
Then you're all good to go.
Points to consider:
*Don't relock bootloader right after flashing. Boot up the phone and set it up. Check if everything is working and then only relock it.
*Keep recovery.img with the 3 files and HuRupdater.zip while flashing. Then after checking if everything is okay, flash the firmware again but this time delete the recovery.img
*Don't relock with TWRP installed because of possible risk of bricking.
So if you are familiar with the rooting procedures 2nd method might be good but you'll loose warranty.
I honestly recommend the 1st one as it has less risk involved.
But remember everything you do is at your own risk.
Anyways there is a thanks button below ?
Edit: hey I just noticed that you have an LLD-AL10 C675. So there's a new update B188. You can find it in firmware finder. It is approved and goes with your varient. Use the dns method. Refer above for details

Hello
I finally managed to update my Honor 9Lite
1 - You must remove all updates from EMUI
2 - Go in Huawei Firmware Finder find the right version for your Smartphone (I took a Fuul OTA 188. and check its compatibility
3 - Change your Internet Connection with Proxy Settings as requested by Firmware Finder
4 - Go to system settings and start checking for updates
An update will be found and it is good that you have selected in Firmware Finder.
5 - Start the update, when the download starts 1% pause it.
6 - Shut down the Wifi resume download with 4G.
7 - Once the download is done the update is done by itself do not interrupt it-
8 - The phone restarts and check that the update has gone well
For me everything went well
Thank you all for your advice :good::good::good:
Have a good day
Best regards
