Trying to update - Huawei P10 Questions & Answers

Bootloader unlocked. Phone rooted. P10 Vtr-L09. I no longer want root and have installed stock recovery but I'm having issues updating. Soon as the phone reboots after update to install package it gets to 5% and then update fails. I'm not sure if it's because the bootloader is unlocked or what but I could really use some help.
edit:
after factory reset, i attempt to update with ota that my phone received appears the update was successful.

Sounds like it's verification failed by Huawei's servers, which version of firmware are you on currently?

if you ever unlocked bootloader you will not get the update and you will not be able to update manually. even if you lock the bootloader you will never get OTA updates ever again.
but if you want to update you can by doing this.
first flash .raw full ROM (I cant post link to download it but if you Google you might get it). keep that file in your external SD then go to droidboot and do a factory reset from there go back to droidboot and select SD download your phone will automatically flash stock ROM and your phones bootloader will get locked.
then you can update manually.

unrooting and locking the bootloader will not help. if you ever unlocked bootloader you phone get banned from getting OTA update.
the only safe way to update now is to flash .raw ROM and then update by full ROM from Asus.com
Flash raw file first and then Download and update by full zip file.... update to 7.4.4 L its the best

if u not getting update from ota
going to asus.com and down load zip file put it in phone and update ( make sure ur bootloader is locked)

Unlocked XT1092 German version now unable to do OTA

I've a XT 1092 bought in Germany, now it is:
Andriod version: 5.0
System version: 22.21.19.victara_retde.retdeall.en.DE.retde
Build number: LXE22.46-19
What I've done on it:
1, Unlock,Root
2, Being unable to do OTA, download a German version of 5.0, recovery to this 5.0 through fastboot
Now there is always system update notification on the cell phone, so I download it automatically and try to update it.
Then the little robot appears and updating process starts.
But it failed every time, after power on the phone, it just says no change was made.
I enter the fastboot mode on phone through volume down and power button, and it says:
Device is unlocked. status code: 3
Software status: modified.
How could I successfully do an OTA?
Why it still says modified even after I recovered the phone to a stock version 5.0?
Many thanks, and wish you all a Merry Christmas!

To successfully do OTA, your system must fully unmodified, this including no custom recovery, unrooted, stock boot logo, etc. So, if your system only rooted, you have to unroot first. Or the easiest way, just flash the stock system and recovery image, then perform OTA.

thanks for your replay.
my x2 is now on a German version 5.0, and unlocked.
i think it is unrooted, but truth be told the last step I had taken before running into this OTA issue was returning the rooted phone to 5.0 by fastboot.
so now I'm even not sure weather it is rooted or not.
I've tried the steps regarding below method with stock ROM, hoping it can return to stock status and be ok to do OTA.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/guide-return-to-stock-official-status-t3274121
Question: is this what you've suggested "flash the stock system and recovery image"?
but when i access the bootloader, it stays the same as before, and says:
device is unlocked. status code: 3
software status: modified.
then I put the zip stock ROM into phone, and tried to do OTA on phone both with original name and modified name(update.zip)
But after selecting the ROM in recovery, it says:
qe 1/1
--install/data/media/0/update.zip...
finding update package..
opening update package...
verifying update package...
E:footer is wrong
E:signature verification failed
installation aborted.
all the thing i want is being able to to OTA, I have searched some threads both on domestic forum in China and on XDA
but no one works.
thanks in advance.

Why would you want to do an OTA?
Just grab the newest ROM and flash it.
I've seen a 6.0 XT1092 ROM somewhere on these forums.

Hello,
when I try to install an update with firmware finder on my huawei p10 it marks me failed, why?
Even when I try to update manually I can not do it.
I have not received an update for a year, while there is at least 5 updates that have been released since

When you're on warranty then send the phone to Huawei. If not I can only suggest to do a factory reset. With an locked bootloader your possibilities are very limited.
If even the EMUI updater won't install an update then it's a software fault - and to fix is isn't possible for us normal users.
If you unlock your bootloader your phone will do a factory reset automatically.
Maybe after a factory reset the update process works, maybe not.
But, as I already said, your possibilities are very limited.

And still no changes? That's very weird.
Does it work when you remove the contents of HwOUC on SD or Internal Storage? This will remove all downloaded update files.

Cant install OTA.

My phone is completely stock now after I had trouble flashing an OTA on my Metro E5 Plus. It failed(with an error everytime) as I tried to install even after removing root. I flashed a backup, but now I can't even get an OTA prompt, tried to force update. Im stuck on the June security patch. Does anyone know what I can do to force, or flash an update?

If you used a stock firmware it should work. You might ask around if anyone has a twrp backup for your particular model AFTER the ota.

Question Can't get OTA updates after relocking bootloader?!

Hello guys
I had previously unlocked the bootloader with MI Unlock (the official way), so I lost the ability to receive OTA updates.
So I tried to relock the bootloader with MiFlashTool in order to be able to receive these updates again, but after 7 minutes, the flashing process ended with an error (Flash Timeout), then my device got stuck in fastboot mode, so I relocked it again by clicking the .bat file (cleanall_lock) inside the ROM itself.
This time everything worked fine and the device booted up successfully, but I still can't receive OTA updates!.
My device is Sweet global
Flashed ROM: 13.0.16.0.SKFMIXM
Update available: 13.0.18.0.SKFMIXM
I really want to receive updates OTA
Anyone can help please?

It should not have been closed, the update is not released at the same time, it will come sooner or later. Patience.
