Database Develop

I think i found a new android nougat DEV build on the huawei firmware finder

The build number is VNS-L31C900B321SP10-log and its 1.3g
Link here http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1305/g223/v61176/f4/full/update.zip
Can't get it to install though, can anyone else confirm?
Thanks
Paul

No way!
So that means we will have nougat very soon!

Is there any changelog available?
How do you know this is a Nougat build?
Some info would be nice before anybody flashes anything.

it's nougat but... dont boot after force update from DC Phoenix v22
I dont know... im flashing stock B151

Abd yes i put UPDATE.APP in DLOAD

Yes its the 7.0 versions... I extracted the buildprop from that update app (i dont install it on my phone !)

Factory reset?
Or a wipe?
Are you sure it is for L31?

the file it's for C432 and C900 VNS-L31... yes it's correct... no tested factory reset... (and in this moment dislike the factory reset option)
¿anyone installed the nougat update.app succesfully?

Update.app failed at 6℅ can't get past it. I have tried a few times already.

same problem..

Guys!
I think there's a way
We have to make the update.app into a flashable zip!

it's possible or... in the firmware finder it's marked OTA... not FULL
example the leak from P9 it's marked FULL no OTA...
it's possible there a "full ROM and REAL" but... there a OTA for other version C900B156 for example... or other... i don't know...
for correct installation it's needed the FULL package... but in the update.app are ALL FILES for "full" ... it's extrange...
sight... im from spain in the morning im very happy read about the "leak" i downloader, probed all possibilities for FLASH but no result... and in this moment im sadly, no NOUGAT hahahahaha...

Since you have TWRP I guess you somehow deleted all the files ....
If you have a backup file (created with TWRP) you should be able to return to a previous state.
I had a problem intalling official builds, after installing a custom ROM.
You could try to install a custom ROM, like sokkoban's (very similar to the official one).

this is the link for sokkonban's ROM. This is for ALE L21 (Dual sim if I am not mistaken). He has made some other custom ROMS for other models. You can check them out if you want, but I suggest you use chrome with translate extension.
Good luck!!!

If I am not mistaken you can enter fastboot mode even without operating system. As for the 4th requirement, I think it's not essential since you can flash the zip file through twrp.

If you want to install a custom rom you can install it through twrp. If you want to install the official build (which is very messy with emui and I do not suggest that unless you get to the service center - or anyone else can provide a working guide) you must install a custom recovery.
In my opinion, you should install a custom rom (for instance Sokkoban's) in order to have an operational phone and then find a way to install the official build.

It's weird. Try to install TWRP 3.02 again.
Then try sokkoban's ROM (the one with SU preinstalled). As long as you have the european model (C432) it should work. You should be patient, it might need more than one tries.
An other option is to try setting it up from the beginning:
go to this thead and head over to chapter 5 and install the EU dual sim files.

Also do not forget, when in fastboot mode, you use the fastboot command, not adb.

Question about converting Chinese version (EVA-AL00) to international (EVA-L19)?

I know something like this was asked before , but i've got confused and need help with that .
i have Chinese Dual sim version EVA - AL00 and i want to convert it to international dual sim version EVA-L19.
Is that possible ?
I've unlocked bootloader , i also found Software for L19 (all needed files : recovery, boot, userdata, firmware) . i even found Nougat (android 7.0) firwmare ..
So , can i cross flesh them ? and how can i do that?
L19 firmwares
http://huaweidevices.ru/category/huawei-p9-eva-l19 (marshmallow files)
http://www.gizrom.com/android-7-0-emui-5-0-huawei-p9-eva-l19-2/ (nougat files)

*#*#2846579#*#*
And then update from sdcard doesn't work!

use adb/fastboot to flash system, boot, cust and recovery image from L19 marshmallow and next flash with sd card method nougat update

Hmm , you did that before?
i mean in theory i understand it's possible and i did something similar to other brands (like htc m7) years ago , but don't really want to brick this one , because i really like it
anyway what's order ?
1) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
2)fastboot flash boot boot.img
3) fastboot flash Userdata ?? (don't think i've ever used this one before)
4) fastboot flash system update.app
this one confuses me more then others, because there is only "update.app" and not system.img or something like that ...

Ok so i've bricked it , because fastboot flash system update.app didn't work because of error
"targed data reported max download size ..."
no i'm just waiting for huawei Erecovery to download file

Install Adb/Fastboot, download lastest Marshmallow ROM for L19, download and extract Huawei Extractor, extract update.app with Huawei Extractor(system,boot,recovery,cust image), connect phone to pc with enabled debugging and flash images with commands :
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot reboot
After flashing make factory reset.

Huawei Erecovery reinstalled software with no problem, so there is still a chance..
I was excepting exact that thing .
now our goal is to find system.img or fastboot command to flash update.app , installing boot and recovery was quite easy and had no problem with it after i unlocked bootloader (again)

then connected phone with fastboot mode (power off , then Vol down and plug usb)

I wanted to try changing oeminfo and then flashing again , but after flashing firmware with Erecovery , it relocked bootloader and i don't really want to got same processes again , i mean unlocking bootloader will reset device and i'm tired of removing HIXX crap and installing google things (esspecialy contacts)
if there is at least 90% of chance with flashing L19 firmware , then i'll do that , but for now i think i'll stuck with this , at least for some days

Anyone with more info about this stuff?

I did converted AL00C00 to L19C432..... Everything working fine.... Anyone interested.... I can share.... It z quite simple....

Hi, could you share the steps to do the conversion.? Many thanks

Honor 4x Che2-L11 (EU) - problem with baseband and IMEI.

Hi, I'm new to this forum.
I have a problem with my phone.
After rooting it was good, but later I wanted to upload another ROM and confused the versions to the Snapdragon processor than HiSilicon and now I don't have a baseband and IMEI.
I have tried the original 6.0, 5.1 trough adb-fastboot, because I can't restore trough dload, I had message 'Install software failed' and nothing helps.
Do you have any ideas?

Honor 5C can't flash nougat

Hi guys.
I'm having problem with flashing nougat on my NEM-L21C432B132. I'm on 6.0 at the moment and I used both dload folder on sdcard method and Firmware Finder. Tried different versions and I keep getting warning saying "incompatibility with current version". How do I solve this ?
I have no root, stock recovery, unlocked bootloader. I thought it could be because of unlocked BL, but I cannot seem to lock it as "fastboot oem lock" doesn't work for me.

Can I just install TWRP and flash the .zips I get from extracting the update.app file ?

It is in .zip format but I extract it and put the update.app into dload folder. I will try to download from honor official site and let you guys now if there's any progress.
EDIT: just had a look on the website. There's no firmware for Honor 5C there. Can anyone point me how can I make nougat work and where do I download the right files ?

Hello,
I have extracted the update.app from the 6.0 version, flashed boot.img and recovery.img through fastboot, and my phone found the update even without using the Firmware Finder..strange but I have downloaded it and flashed without problems. My bootloader didn't even lock after flashing which happens from what I've read. Anyway I'm on the newest firmware ATM and also it's rooted. Maybe someone can explain that in case anyone had a similar problem in the future ?

What was the size of OTA? If it was 300-400 MB then it would not harm for bootloader or recovery

OTA normally doesn't lock bootloader. Have seen this in my 5X.
