What is the safest and quick way to switch from B180 to B331 for L29 (after releasing B320 for L29) ?

dirty flash B320 on B180 then wipe/format cash then flash B331 it worked for me

Prepare a raw file, but the colors are not ok! (Yellow was the color blue)

[Mate 8 Android Development] ROIDjoy:
the choice "disabled resources hooks" is not ticked if that what you mean ?
[Mate 8 Android Development] pappschlumpf:
Yes that is what i mean. I'm running Unicon and Flat Style Bar Indicators without any issues here. But Flat Style Bar indicators has Huawei support in latest version! If that module you try to use has not it is maybe not capable to change color or icons in the statusbar. Some things in Huawei ui are very special, modules that are made to support AOSP roms, or for example Samsung roms are not working for us.

B165 Removed Apps: that's mean debloat version, right ?

B165 Download Link: (Updated 3-1-16) that's mean full stock version, right ?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Yes the removed apps are the debloated ones. You can dirty flash the new build or wipe and flash, it's your choice. It's full B165 based.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ZeroPDA:
Before flashing this ROM I have a question. Will I have the opportunity to silence phone with long power button? Because it seems 4-in-1 Reboot Menu doesn't have this option. Or it pops up after choosing reboot from stock menu?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
It pops up in the initial reboot menu before the 4-in-1 reboot menu pops up.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ZeroPDA:
Thanks a lot! Thanks for being open for communication. I also notice these features in your ROM: Automatic Call Recording (can it switched off completely or better (as in my custom ROM for Samsung there is a "Record" button on dialer) be optional)

Strobe on incoming call. Can I switched it off? (I have a smartwatch. I don't need it at all.)
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Yeah, you can switch them on and off in K-settings. You can turn the automatic call recording to just start recording as soon as the other person answers the phone. You can turn it off completely as well as hit the record button on the dialer while in a call.

[Mate 8 Android Development] ZeroPDA:
I cannot understand: does this ROM work correctly on L29?
[Mate 8 Android Development] cih997:
After today's update (dirty flash) some apps / system work very slow. For example google keyboard when I press few keys and keys popups appear, they dissapear with 2-3 seconds of delay (by default popups dissapear immediately after touch off). Another example - android wear app and switching between configuration windows is very slow.
[Mate 8 Android Development] lammpa-1:
I thought that you only needed fastboot, busybox, SuperSU and TWRP in order to root and flash your Huawei? If I am not wrong then which one of these tools is so experimental that you have much higher propability of really bricking your phone? I might though be wrong and you really need something more? Could you tell me since I am thinking of buying Huawei (that's why I read these threads).
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
This rom was tested on the AL10, I don't have an AL29 to test but it should work on all models. Make sure at first boot when KangVIP tools pops up asking for permission you allow it or you'll have issues with K-settings.

Hi,

I got some Problem with the Xposed Framework on my AL10. I've flashed the latest KangVIP but in the K-Settings it says that "Xposed been installed" but the settings are greyd out and "Not installed,please install Xposed framework again." If I click on reinstall,it just freezes.

how can I solve it? Shall I install it manually?

Forget option in k-settings. Xposed is pre-installed in v3. Or flash it in recovery!

Yes i have the l29 variant. Do you mean flash it with twrp or with flashing fastboot (system.img)? Because i already did that( with flashing system.img) and it didn't work and i got the screen where ist says encryption unsuccesful.
[Mate 8 Android Development] tdamocles:
If you were in b170, or 180? Then you must go install stock recovery from those then get full stock update.app b320 l29 and update dload method then follow guides in other threads.
[Mate 8 Android Development] Kimura61:
No, i'm currently on b321 and the flashing update dload thing never worked for me. it always stops at 5% with an error.

i also got the problem that when i try to wipe or install i always got errors.
[Mate 8 Android Development] mbcla:
Yea I saw that on the Changelog. But where is the Xposed Installer App located? I need it for the RootCloak to get Snapchat working.

"Enable RootClock in the Xposed Installer app. In order to do that, open Xposed Installer, go to Modules, and press the check box next to RootClock;" Where can I do this on my AL10?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ROIDjoy:
its embedded in the rom image file of B331v3 itself check it out in your zipped file if extracted you will find folder system > vendor > k-rom > xposed > 2 files to install and uninstall xposed through the choice on your k-settings directly.

of course you can always download it from xda and install it through your recovery as well manually.

[Mate 8 Android Development] pappschlumpf:
You definitely have to install a stock B3xx first with dload method to make work correctly. There is a B320 for our model. I would install twrp for 4.0, install a L29 b1xx stock from xda with it. Wipe data, Install stock recovery. Copy b320 to dload folder and give it a try again.

Ok, thanks mate really appreciate your help, will definitely try it.

should i install the stock b1xx for l29 with twrp 4.0 or with fastboot ?
[Mate 8 Android Development] pappschlumpf:
With good question, fastboot should be ok. And if your system hangs around at 5% during dload flash to 320 wait and let it reboot. If i updated to 321 it stopped and rebooted some minutes later. B321 was installed.

DL00 phone

Hi guys,

Could you please help me? I have an NXT-DL00 model, I ordered it from China. I would like to install a B321, B331 or B350 rom which has MIUI 4.1 already. Bootloader is unlocked. I could install the B133 stock international rom with fastboot, so my current build no is NXT-C900B133. But when I tried to update to B152 or B170 from dload, after my phone restarts I gets the following message: "Software install failed! Incompatibility with current version. Please download the correct update package."

So these versions are not compatible with the DL00 model. Could you please suggest me a rom (and a method, dload or twrp) which is compatible with the DL00 devices and what can I use to update my phone? Thank you in advance. :good:
[Mate 8 Android Development] Kimura61:
Should i just flash the system.img from b1xx or also flash like cust and boot?

15 minutes, but it is showing a screen stating the encryption process runs. Try to reboot holding powerbutton.

You've updated your device to B320 L29 or B321 AL10 stock ROM first, right? B3xx custom ROMs are not working flashed over B1xx ROMs. There a red hint above the dl link ;)

Sorry to say, but this is a mess. Dirty flash from previous version doesn't work (was waiting about 30 minutes), installing new TWRP and the access to the content of the sd card is lost until you format everything probably. Why encryption is needed is beyond me...
[Mate 8 Android Development] Jake2kOne:
Thank you for your patience with me.

I've updated my device to AL10C00331 first. Then I unlocked bootloader etc etc and then I've flashed your KangVIP Slim 331v3.

Now I just dirty-flashed KangVIP Slim 350 over 331v3... but something in my mind tells me you will start yelling at me... :-/

On my LG G3 a dirty flash was just to install the newer version of the ROM, so if I have to do something else on my Mate 8 first (like flashing stock rom again, too) then I haven't found it in the many documentations. :(

The op only says (to me) not flashing an old stock version to the newsest Kang VIP.
