[Q]TMo 4.4 Update error. Download corrupted.

I was pushed the KK update for TMo HTC one. The update was dowloaded, after that it verifies the contents of the firmware. It is failing saying "Download is corropted' and asks to dowload again. I downloaded it 3 times , everytime i am getting the same error. I soft reseted the phone and checked and downloaded again. No luck.
Later i killed the 'updater' app and cleared its app cache (some 20kb of data was there) via the setting-> apps-> All- > Updater. Now the in setting when i check for the update it dosen't show me the 4.4 update available
Is there any way by which i can update it via the PC ? I could not find any tool from HTC for it, sync manager dosen't do firmware update.
P.S : Phone is on 4.3 , never rooted, no custom roms. Just network unlocked via network code from T-MObile.
Thanks !!

Nope, there is no way you can update via PC. The only update method is OTA. Backup your data and do a full reset. Then try installing the OTA

How to install beta software without participating in Beta Program?

Hey guys.
I tried some ways to install Beta Firmware starting at L09C432B322 finishing at B360 and all the time dload shows fail.
My previous P9 was registered in Beta program, but after update it got bricked and service replaced it for new defect-free model.
I got it unfortunately at 2nd December and Beta Program was closed...
Now I try to install all ROMs with Nougat Beta and all the time Dload returns "Install Error" depending of update type.
For example: B360 - 5% install failed
B322 - 37% install failed.
I don't want to unlock by bootloader, because it's quite a new phone.
Do you guys maybe have any ideas how can I install beta? I really liked new EMUI 5 and some SystemUI improvements.
If there's any way which will work, please write it down step-by-step. I desperately want Nougat on my P9.
Currently I'm on EVA-L09C432B182
Or.. If it's not possible, I can install it via TWRP. But.. How's the things with relocking bootloader?

I am on the same build L09C432B182, Downloading the beta software returns error at 5%.
I am set as joined inside BETA programme.
so im guessing there is more to this.
hopefully someone knows

L31C432B370 OTA UPDATE Thanks to Prem222

This was posted just now in my thread and is currently downloading an OTA update. I think it deserves its own thread and thanks.
"how to
In Europe, try this :
Open Hicare, update Hicare, agree to terms of system update, download and update to b370 or b 371."
Its a 1.99GB file so presumably complete with data as well

Is your phone a single sim or dual sim? Exact version of firmware?

My phone is twin sim and was C432B160. Can confirm that download complete, reboot and after about 10 seconds of 0% and verify has moved to 62% and verifies again, holds for about 45 seconds and says installing but stays on 62% till it jumps to 98% and then report success. Now rebooted and optimising. More to follow

Confirm success and no data loss. Just going through apps to check. Cannot give enough credit to Prem222 for finding this method.
Dual sim still active

Good! Is the firmware version B370 or B371?

I installed this update without problems, but now bluetooth does not work anymore, I can't even activate it. Does anyone else have this issue?

Its 370

Bluetooth is working.

No updates available.

Some details:
worked for VNS-L31C432B160 > VNS-L31C432B370, (dual sim).
Took a while.
As for 1,5 hour of using everything seems to be working.
Bluetooth - calls and sending attachment ok.
Both sims ok.
Calls ok.
Camera, flash etc ok.
Huawei share works ok.
In the phone manager there is a virus scan ( by Avast).
Thanks goes to SirBeherit from forum.android.com.pl

I have no keyboard (i tried to factory reset but it fail) , what should i do?
Before using this method i installed stock rom so i was unrooted and i had locked bootloader...i can't understand why it happened...
The update size was like 1.25 gb.

I have mm b161 with root and recovery twrp. What should i do to update to nougat 371?

Nope, no updates available (C432, Austria). April fool's?

When I flashed back to 161 from 360, I didn't get the OTA update as well, so I just downloaded the required files and flashed it myself via TWRP (because dload wouldn't accept the files for diff version?). Works well, better than B360.
Here are the versions:
B370 - for VNS-L31C432.
B371 - For VNS-L11C432.
If anyone wants to try flashing themselves, I could link the update and hw_eu files (I also factory reset after install, so all files and apps were gone, though the OTA may possibly not do that, have never tried an OTA).

Link me files please

L31C432...Marshmallow rooted
1.Download Hicare app from Playstore
2.Download B370 trough Hicare
3.Upgraded B370 via Hicare
4,Phone booted to twrp
5.Unpacking B370....
6.Phone booting (new boot image)
7.Optimizing system
8.Phone booted okay...

Anything for VNS-L21?

Help getting to Nougat from C432B182

Hi all,
I'm trying to upgrade my P9 to the latest software build but I've hit a brick wall. The phone is currently on L09C432B182 software version.
My phone was originally branded to EE (C440), but I followed the guide posted here to debrand it to C432. This was successful and after getting to B136 firmware I then got the updates to B166 and B182 in succession.
I've been using B182 for a couple of months, and all is working fine, but I've now got the urge to try Nougat. The problem is, all of the methods I've tried seem not to work.
- Huawei built in Updater app says no updates available
- Hisuite says no updates available
- Using the "Huawei Updater" via Hisuite/proxy method doesn't work as Hisuite is saying no internet connection (I think the custom ROM URLs are no longer valid)
- Using the Firmware Finder app and proxy add-on method gets me further in that I can download the updates (B360 or B361) in the built in Updater app and the phone will successfully verify them; however in all cases the installation fails at 5% due to "Software update failed! Failed to check the package"
- As a last resort, I tried extracting the update.app files from downloaded firmware, mounting in SD card/dload and then using the Dialer method to install from SD card; this also fails with a "Software update failed!" error
Has anyone had this issue when trying to upgrade from B182 and if so, did you manage to resolve it?
Thanks in advance
Nick

Don't try Nougat the battery life is ****

I tried the hisuite and Huawei updater route and got the no internet connection all the time. I gave up and went back to the firmware finder and tried to download B386 using the proxy method. This came back with failed to download. By random choice I checked the updater app on the phone to download latest full package. This immediately brought up and download the B386 firmware and it installed without a problem with no loss of data. Just to check it wasn't a bit of luck I did the same with the wife's phone and it worked the same way . As for battery life I don't see any problems with it

Huawei P9 attempted upgrade "the update package does not exist"

Hi all,
How are you?
I have spent soooo many hours trying to upgrade my new old stock Huawei P9 EVA-L09, its driving me absolutely crazy. When I bought it, like an idiot, I didn't check the Android Version, which I discovered was 6. So, I did oodles of research, gathered the right tools, downloaded the suggested updates and started.
I successfully upgraded to the latest android 6 (L09C432B210), but I tried many versions of Android 7, but to no avail. I eventually found a version of Android 7 called 'L09C432B322' that worked, but when I checked it says 'NRD90M test-keys', which is EMUI 5, Android 7; it is a fully functioning version of Android 7 but it is a pre-release version I believe, and neither the 'Files' option nor the 'Update' option are available on it, which is a pain. I have now tried a total of 23 different update versions, but no success, and with exactly the same issue with the update process, saying that it cannot update using that version (not precise wording!).
A couple of days ago I accidentally ended up on the phone update screen, the one with the big circle, while I was trying to get in to TWRP (fat fingers...). It sat there for an age doing absolutely nothing (aside from the circle spinning), not even failing, and I didnt even have an update file in 'dload' on my SD Card (not that I'm aware of), so I pressed the power button and shut it off. Now when I try to update, using either update.app via manual update or update.zip via HWOYA7, any update at all tbh, even old ones that I know failed but at least the update file was seen by the phone & process, it tells me the install failed and 'the update package does not exist'. I thought it may be a file extension association issue in Windows 10 (not sure how, just clutching at straws), so I reset the associations to Windows default, but that did not work. At around about the same time of the update issue starting, I couldn't say for sure when as I wasn't paying enough attention, I started using the HWOTA7 tool, which too gave the same result of 'the update package does not exist'.
Did HWOTA7 cause this? Did I cause this inadvertantly? Has a broken update.app caused this? I simply do not know and am hoping one of you fine people may be able to help me. Is the process looking in a different place to where either HWOTA7 puts the file (not changed from default) or where I put the file (SD Card 'dload')?
The reason I'm trying to update is because Android 7 is no longer supported by Google and one by one apps are disappearing from Google Play, so I'd like to update to Android 8 (Oreo). There lays another fine issue as I cannot find a version of it anywhere, not since Huawei removed the updates from its site a couple of years back. Not that any update will work of course...
I've never known a phone to be so difficult to get the correct software for and to ultimately upgrade. I even managed to update an LG G5 around 2 years ago when there were no official updates, but this Huawei P9 is just silly...
I think the update process should be this, update to the latest possible Android 6 then 7 for the P9, rebrand to the AL10 and, update to the chinese Oreo and then overlay the Kirin fix (I think); is that correct?
Thanks folks.
Paul.

Hey @vorlockfoss can you send me the B322 that you have found in order to update from B210 Marshmallow to Nougat?
Huawei's firmware servers were taken down only last quarter of 2020 so october/november/december 2020 around those months.

Hi W00fer,
How are you?
B322 is the version I downgraded from, back to C900B300. If you have B210 then you'll need B386;
HWOTA.zip | by Tecalote for P9
there are instructions in the folder. It includes the full firmware for EVA-L09 C432 B386 - for update from Android 6 to Android 7. For example from b182 or b210 to b386.
androidfilehost.com
I've responded more completely to your other message, so if you need further advice it may be better to reply there and I'll do what I can to help. I will update this thread after we've finished, just to keep it tidy.
Thanks,
Paul.
