Hello, I just want to know where is the update.zip saved before install, when I download OTA update on stock firmware. Can somebody help?
Thank you
They should be stored in /data/update/HwOUC
can't find data folder on my device.
You need to be rooted for access to /data.

Does someone know where the OTA update file is downloaded, exact location? i have checked /cache and there is update.zip or different file, but phone says update ready with posibility to install update, so for sure zip is downloaded somewhere, but can't find the right location
Thanks in advance
Depends what version you're on.
Early versions 4.2.1 stored in download folder .
Not sure where later version stored

I would suggest to make sure the OTA downloads and then use a file explorer to search your sdcard for zipfiles. One of those should be the OTA, my guess would also be the Download folder.
I need the help of GT-I8200 users. I rooted my phone, and to free some of ram meory i deleted some of the system app and i didn't do backup for them.
Who has backuped the system apps can upload them somewhere and give link on private or something. Please.
Better, flash your current firmware version (from sammobile.com/firmwares) via odin3 and you will get the system apps back but you will lose root access. You have to root again
or
You download your current firmware package (it's a ...HOME.tar.md5 file) and extract the system.img then rename it to system.zip and you can extract system apps in /system/app folder and move them to your phone

You were a big help
hello i recently went back to stock on my phone and i'm trying to upgrade all way to 5.1.1. After I downgraded I was able to use the phones upgrade option in settings and that got me to 4.4.4 and now it keeps telling me I'm up to date which we all know isn't right. I found a 5.0 .cfg file searching this forum but no info on how to use the cfg. someone said change it to .zip and others replied back with it didn't work. so i'm trying to find the right way to do this without bricking my phone... any help would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone have the OF2 or OF3 OTAs?
I am on BOC5 Lollipop 5.0 and I can't install the the 5.11 OTA that was posted above, it starts but after checking the contents fails with an error something like error 7 on package. I wondered if it was because you cant go from my 5.0 OC5 straight to the new 5.11 build?
I want to keep stock but can't update OTA as I'm in the UK. I installed the BOC5 update by downloading the 1.6GB cfg file and renaming it to update.zip and placing on my SD card etc.

Hey there,
as the title say, I'm on 23.4.A.1.232 with SuperSu root and locked BL.
Today i got the message for a new system update -> 23.4.A.1.264
When i try to load an install it, i get a message "Xperia system Update couldn't be verified".
Does someone know how i can install it, without unroot. Or can someone send me the "update" files?
Thanks in advance
Edit: i think i maybe found the file, but i don't know how to open or convert...
The file is inside the zip and is called "update_package.update_package"
If you have Dualrecovery, download ftf file by Xperiafirm, convert it to zip with PRFCreator, of course adding supersu and dual recovery in zips

yeah, i want to avoid a new system install... I want to convert that update_package to a zip
If you will make this new zip and you will not wipe data in recovery, it will update all without loosing data. It could uninstall apps which you have made as system apps and delete all mods in system partition.
Already installed .264 but i still wanna know how to get that data from the crappy update_package.update_package... :silly:
Any ideas?
Hi Everyone!
I followed the instructions to upgrade to Nougat from MM, this includes a file named update_data_full_hw_la.zip
http://ministryofsolutions.com/2017/01/huawei-p9-plus-vie-l29-nougat-b354-latin-america.html
The step that I cant seem to install this file, I tried:
Renaming file to update.zip and try to apply it through forced update (DIDNT WORK)
Extract all the content into dload folder (DIDNT WORK)
The content has an UPDATE.APP file and multiple folders. The forced update goes really fast and does not seem to install anything.
The ROM itself does not have many apps so I guess this zip should have everything else that is missing from the ROM but I cant seem to install it properly.
Any help on this? How am I supposed to install it?

try the alternative method:
Alternative Method
Remove update files from your phone, if you have copied before
Download Huawei updater from This Link
Download latest Hisuite from official huawei website
Open huawei update, tick in custom rom, in custom rom version type VIE-L29C605B354
In Custom rom URL copy this link http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1257/g104/v71996/f1/
Then tick custome port, don’t change it.
now connect your phone with pc and make sure Hisuite recognize and connected properly. then just open Hisuite menu and change network settings as shown in image below.
Easy-Nougat-Update-2.png
Then in hisuite click check for update
it should start downloading and installing firmware
Thanks, but that method won't work as the ROM itself was already applied, therefore, HiSuite returns a message saying that I'm on the most updated version.
The file m trying to apply should contain apps like the calculator, Bluetooth, compass, etc. These apps are not part of the ROM but they come on a separate zip file.
The issue seems to be that apps are not compatible with the Nougat ROM already installed.
Any other thoughts?
If any of you has an update zip containing all remaining apps, please share!
The problem u are facing could be 2. Cust and oeminfo but fitting the package and /of rom. And the two packages need to be installed immediately with starting with the hw update, after that the normal one. Tell me which version and cust we are talking about?
