Update for VIE-L09C40B181 to nougat - Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers

Hey Everyone,
So my P9 Plus seems it wont receive a nougat update anytime soon from O2 as they seem to be waiting for the test software.
Is there way to update this phone without rooting?. I have looked around but am unsure where to get firmware from, so many models, so many variants.
Any advice would be helpful
Thanks

Did it with firmware finder, thanks anyway

So far there is no Lollipop for P7. Unfortunately we have to wait for Huawei...
I have done a little research and I found out that we may get a Lollipop update at mid 2015 which means we have to wait a long time ffs ;_;

Again ... same thing on mate7 forum..
Dont understand some ppl such hassle for 5.0 ..
Just testing it right now on G3 and it is laggyyyy
I think we'd better wait for 5.1 with bugfixes or if Google follows trend - 5.1.2

:good: you heard the maaan ppl
P7 will get Lollipop in July, along with updated EMUI:

Can't see P7-L10 in the list?!
http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_devices_to_get_lollipop_from_next_month_onwards-news-11834.php
Only for Chinese devices L00-L09 in July 2015 (2015年7月). AnDroid 5 for L10 may be next year... But L07 hardware is similar to L10, so custom ROMs we will see soon definitely!!
It was the same with EMUI 3.0 - first for Chinese devices, then for the rest of the world.
Such a late release could mean that:
EMUI heavy adjustments over Android standart interface are so complex that Huawei needs a lof of resources to develop and test it.
I would say in this area Huawei are following steps of HTC Sense, which got so heavy that HTC was incapable of releasing updated android versions in time, because Sense integration took way too much time and resources.
or
They are waiting for 5.1 thus "Lollipop" for them means 5.1 not 5.0.2
That would be a good thing.

Of course we will.
Can anyone in the UK with the L00 model confirm if they have received the 5.1 update?
Im rooted and Im currently only connected via wifi data so only searching via Online update.
Hello,
I have a P7, Build: P7-L10V100R001C00B136. Any update for me?

That is why I changed my device P-7 one week ago, people waiting for long time to get updates, but Huawei seems to have forgotten them, now I have a motorola Moto G that provides official lollipop and there are many custom roms for this device with the latest version of android 5.1.1. I love it !!!!

Need to download newer firmware than EVA-L09C636B134 on my P9-L09

I see that builds B136 and B152 are available for the C636-geo versions of the phone? Anyone know where I can download the new firmware? The green garbled images from the camera can be quite bothersome!
Or would it be a better idea to install the C432-geo versions of the build? I know this a longer and more convoluted series of steps, but I don't have any updates showing up in my Updater, so this might be the only choice!
Thanks in advance!
Have you received any updates?

There are several firmware builds for the P9. The beta/official nougat releases are only available for specific regions. You need to locate the region that represents the firmware on your phone (C212) and see if there is a beta/official release available. Otherwise you can read the threads in this forum that talk about debranding your phone. Assuming your P9 phone will support the cellular bands supported by the regional firmware you are looking to debrand your phone to (most versions of the P9 phone support the same bands) then running the debranding procedure will allow you to install/use the firmware for another region. There are procedures in this forum that will help you debrand your phone to the C432 region. Once you debrand and update the region information on your phone then you can follow the procedure(s) to upgrade the firmware and install the nougat beta/official release.
Awesome thanks... Will try that. If not i will juat go and unlock the bootloader and flash it...

Even Huawei do not know when Nougat its coming out for the Mediapad M3 (BTV-W09B)

I emailed Huawei regarding the Nougat update for EU Mediapad M3's (BTV-W09B) and they don't know when it will be. I am not really impressed as Nougat has been out 10 months now. No doubt the EMUI 'enhancements' slow down development.
I really like the tablet but this does not bode well for the future. Let hope that some custom Roms can be developed in the mean time.

Dear *****,
Thank you for contacting Huawei Customer Support.
Regarding your query, there is no official information about the Android Nougat update for the Huawei M3 Mediapad. You will receive a notification on your Huawei device, when an official update of the firmware or software is available.
Stay tuned to our official website in order to follow the latest news and announcements.
If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you for contacting us at [email protected]
Kind Regards,

Same answer for BTV-DL09, from Huawei Romania.
You can update your tablet via Firmware Finder, to B301 (for BTV-W09). it is Nougat, everything ist working properly.
I have B302 (for BTV-DL09) and have no issues, tablet is working even better

Hi 30adi, do you know if I can flash europe rom on my US device? My device has a model code BTV-W09C128, not sure if I can flash roms for BTV-W09C100
thanks
No, you can't. You need to change region to C100. I have no idea how it can be done. For other Huawei products it is possible, they have more support from developers.

Why? Can you explain this???
Are you sure or only spamming aroud FUD?
In my experience you can safely install a ROM of different region if for the same HW.
Why should I spam? I have no interest on spamming here...
Check other Huawei threads and you will see that people are using tools to change region.
If you know how it's done, people here are waiting for a tutorial. Explain them how it's made.
I do not need, as I already have the EU version and running 7.0.

I have just had a new one appear on Firmware Finder dated 6/6/2017, its BTV-W09C100B302 (FullOTA-MF-P 87280) 2.38GB. I am a bit cautious to flash it as this is my only working tablet at the moment.
there are instructions in pg 11 to backup and change regions in the update emui 5 thread. post #108. worked for me. ive switched between euro to south east asia.
I tried updating my tablet (BTV-DL09) to latest firmware but it is not working. Firmware Finder finds B303 update, but when i try to install it, authentication error ist coming. I am on B302 now.

Well said!
I have an EU model and no update. Must be phased. According to Firmware Finder the latest is 303 not 302 for Europe.
I take it back its 302.
European LTE model has version B303. WIFI version B302.

Someone can confirm that in 303 the gesture control doesn't work?

Hi m8,
You can't install ANY files from Firmware Finder. That site/app for us, P30/P30 Pro users is just to see when the new firmware for us is released. You can check for HiSuite or eRecovery to see if it's available for your device. If not, you will need to wait for a whille untill your device got whitelisted o Huawei update servers
