What country/region are you from?
What is the present firmware version B160 dated?
Firmware Finder (FF) (online version) shows B150 as the latest, so FF's probably not going to help you unfortunately: http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VIE-L09c627&firmware_page=0
Your only other option may be to convert to another region's ROM, which has received regular updates - e.g. Euro C432 ROM (latest is B382, dated March 2018). But, it's a risky procedure which involves unlocking the bootloader, rooting the phone, changing the vendor country info with SRK Tool, etc, etc.

Which update did you try? If you're still on 4.1, then you should try a much earlier update (i.e. the very 1st 5.0 update) - I'd recommend one of the B361s from here (or via the FF app): http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VIE-L29C605&firmware_page=0
Always download & apply the FullOTA-MF, in this case ~1.3Gb file size.
Once you have installed B361 successfully, try the B381 update (not the latest B382 as it will not work at this stage most likely). Again, download the FullOTA-MF (1.4Gb) & apply it.

I tried all of the full OTA on FF all them download just fine but every time the phone restarts to install the update for some reason it fails at 1% of the install.

try B202 first
I had an P9+ B130 version and was able to upgrade to B202, which is needed as a stepping stone to MIUI 5. I used FF with the proxy update scheme. The B202 update worked while other versions stopped at verifying the update, which is just what you experienced.

I'm out of luck then it seems that the B354 update is no longer available on FF which is the "steppingstone" in my case.

Hello there, I'm trying to update my EVA-L09C605B135 to B380 (nougat) manually and I want to know if it is safe to do it. In Fimrware Finder I found aviable only B320, B360 and B380 and previous only B135 (the one and latest I'm currently using) for my CUST. Should I start by updating to a previous version or is it ok to go on with latest?
Edit: in FF B320 and B380 appear like "OTA" while B360 is the only that appears as "FULL", what does that mean? Should I go for FULL?
I have a Vodafone UK branded handset and went from B137 (MM) to B341 (Nougat) without any issues.
I had TWRP installed and flashed the update zips there, when i went to Nougat and temp lost TWRP, using the dload folder method worked too.
tl;dr - yes to your first question! IMHO.
I would say that ota updates are incremental updates, and if coming from one android version to another ie Marshmallow to Nougat you want to flash the "full" update zip. That's what i would do anyway...
Peace
Am also in need of that answer.
Hello , i am on BLA-L29 8.0.0.127(C432) , i have seen that 129 is for sure released to some people for c 432 ( Eu region). I have tried the firmware finder to download and install the full-ota of .129 but it fails when it is about to restart with the error that the update is not verified etc.
Are there other users (C432) stuck in .127 also?
Im on bla l09 129 now updated from the ota on monday.
AFAIK 129 isn't approved yet, and can only be installed through FunkyHuawei.

Remember that when you use firmware finder, to check with imei availability. If it's not approved you cannot flash successfully. But get errors

BLA-L29 C432 still on 8.0.0.127 here.. Checking through system update shows nothing while other regions have even received .132... wtf huawei?
On FF it shows updates up to .130 but i can only obtain .129 which is approved with IMEI.. however yesterday 3 updates were pulled from FF which felt shady and made me think they were faulty since people were complaining about wi-fi battery drain so i didn't use the app.
If the phone's system updater decides to work will it give me directly .130/the latest update currently or i'll get just .128? Should i update over FF? Is it safe? Why were the updates pulled yesterday?

I am on .129 now c432, in ff no other above .129 is approved, and in the system update i dont get any new version, i imagine if the system update works it will give you the .129?
I've got an P9 Plus (VIE-L09C432) and the latest update I get is B370 from March 2017. I can see from other users on XDA and Firmware Finder (FF) that there are newer updates out there. But neither "system update" on the phone, nor HiSuite finds anything newer than B370.
Why is different updates available only in some regions. Who decides this? Huawei or my phone company?
I tried updating via FF, but even though it makes the system updater find a newer firmware it failes when I try to download it. My next phone will by a pure Google phone.

The build have to be approved by Huawei in FF.
For your phone, the latest approved build are B381.
Yes, the question then is why do I never get any updates newer than B370? Is somehow Huawei or Telia (my phone company) holding the updates back?

Strange, i'm a swede with Telia...got B381 OTA weeks ago.
(it has nothing to do with Telia)
Sent a mesage to Huawei support and they asked for my IMEI number and would look into why my phone never got the updates after B370. Have not heard back from them yet, but I'm optimistic. At one time I have unlocked my boot loader and rooted the phone, but I relocked it and restored the phone via B360 which was updated to B370 via my one and only OTA received. I found I had little or no use for root on the phone.
B384 is now approved in FF. (Smooth update)
Security patch April 1
3D camera
Today I got B384 as official OTA ...
I gave up waiting for the updates via OTA and just used FF, now on B384 myself.

Huawei don't give much love to us up here in Scandinavia. Well known!! and specially L09-C432.
The L29C363 seems to get more attention.
I'm having a problem updating firmware from AL-AL00 8.0.0.128(SP2C00) to ALP-AL00 8.0.0.129(SP2C00) using Firmware Finder. The firmware says it is approved. I have the vpn running and when the update is completed it fails after the reboot. And I have tried the FullOTA and both OTAs but the end result is the same.
Try with HuRUpdater :

Thanks oslo83. I have now managed to update the firmware via Firmware Finder. Not really sure or understand why I wasn't able to before. Perhaps the firmware takes time to get to my region.
firmware finder usually is approved by the time the normal OTA is installing....Had the same problem,and suddenly ota said there is a new version at the same time that firmware finder wanted to install.

easy way to fix this is flash the same ota version you are using rightnow, then after flashing flash the new firmware available. happened to me before in 129 firmware. after doing the said steps 129 was installed without any error
I have searched everywhere but I didn't find a reply to my question.
A couple of days ago I have updated my phone LLD-L31 to the version 8.0.0.132 through Firmware Finder (it worked for me with proxy method) then I decided to revert back to the previous version 8.0.0.131. So I started reading guides to install a firmware on Huawei/Honor devices, I have downloaded the FullOTA package version 8.0.0.131 with Firmware Finder, placed it in the folder dload on my SDcard and started the intstallation in the project menu (accessible digiting *#*#2846579#*#* in the dialer), it started but suddenly it ended with a message "installation failed".
So my question is: how can i revert to the previous version of the software (or to the out of the box firmware installed on my device)?

You should have an option to downgrade in the about section/ the update menu of your phone if you did it right.
Otherwise you may need to use the HuRupdater Method.

Thanks for your reply!
I don't have this option, but if I remember well I hadn't it also in the previous version of the firmware.
So i can't install a previous version of the firmware simply downloading it an putting into dload folder of the SDcard?

Can you please specify why do you want to roll back?
Because most people just wanna upgrade to a newer version.Newwr versions will have better stability so it's recommended to keep the latest version unless you have some bugs.
I honestly don't know why the dload method doesn't work, seems that it doesn't work for most people.
I think you'll be able to roll back using HuRupdater. But that'll mean you'll have to unlock bootloader and flash twrp first. Then you can go all stock from there.
Here's a guide to the HuRupdater from @zxz0O0

After installing the version 132 I asked the technical support through HiCare and they told me that installing firmware with Firmware Finder could void warranty so I decided to revert to the previous firmware and wait for regular OTA by Huawei.

I'm not sure but I think you are on the latest build for your varient now so you won't be getting any updates untill a next build comes in.
I don't think you'll be able to roll back without the firmwares from firmware finder as you don't have an option to roll back.
The best option now would be to just wait for the next official build(might come soon as a small ota which has security patches) and then check if you are facing any issues installing which you won't as you are not rooted and dosent have an unlocked bootloader. So don't worry ?
