Guys this has been bugging me for a while so I decided to re-do my setup.

I wiped my phone completely, minus my external sd card.

I reverted back to B023 using my twrp backup from my sd card, which was stock B023 with nothing set up at all.

Fastbooted original recovery.

Let my system detect the B029 update and installed it from within android, not forcing it.

I then copied the B209 update.zip to my dload folder on my sd card from my pc, the entire 1,179,468kb update.zip file.

I went to update locally from within android.

The update took about 20 min, but I then had a B209 stock setup.

This is the B209 update.zip that I used to go directly from B029 to B209 from within android via local update.

Please let me know if this helps.

Did you extract the update.zip file? I thought it only recognizes the update.app file?
[Huawei P8max] Peter522:
Hello

I have P8max DAV-701. This is my first android phone ever so don’t be rude please :) . I rooted it using the guide from XDA P8max root guide topic. It worked flawless but I forget to do a TWRP backup. I recently wanted to sell the phone and do unroot and factory reset but I had a TWRP bootloop. Something went wrong and now I can’t turn on Wi-fi at all… button is grey, but bluetooth is working. I couldn’t find stock image on any website just the one on Huawei’s chinese site for DAV-703. International factory image is provided for P8 and P8 lite but not for P8max… how is that possible? Any suggestion?

(Sorry if I’m writing in the wrong topic but this phone not seems so popular at all and don’t have any decent forums other than this, compared for example the Nexus 6P topics… I should have bought that phone instead…)
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Here's the thing.. I think most of u guys who got this working are coming from the p8max 701L .. My phone is a 703L and I think that's were the problem is stemming from.. I could be wrong.
[Huawei P8max] Ideas4ya:
I did not extract the update.zip. I put the update.zip in the dload folder as a whole.

---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

You may be correct if the hardware has something to do with it. But as you know, I had to convert my 701L to the 703L (B023) before beginning any of this. It would be weird that we have to convert to the 703L to get the rom to work, but original 703L owners can't. Unless it has something to do with the hardware itself.

But I though hiris had an original 703L, is that right?
[Huawei P8max] Ideas4ya:
Great job on this build. I flashed it over my Stock B209 and it works perfectly.

Great work!!!!
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
can anyone with an -> 701L <-- and running Wifi and BT and -> B209/B211 or Kangvip typing *#*#2846579#*#* in the dialer,

then -> "2. Veneer Informations" then -> "2. Apparatus Info" and then scroll down and looking the info for

"Wifi Model" and "Bluetooth Model"

for me the info say "not support display now"

On the first Page and "1. Version Info" i have:

Hardware Version: DAVINCE_701L_01

Bootloader: DAV-703LC233B209_Fastboot

I can't update the Google contact sync. The version that came with this rom is 5.1 version whilst the correct version shoud be 6.0.1
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
The GoogleContactsSync works fine on anything 5.0 - 6.0.1 I use it in all of my roms for the Mate 8 and X2 as well.
[Huawei P8max] Leechoonhwee:
Hmmmm.. not sure why it gives me an error though. I might try to copy the apk directly into the app folder and see how it goes.

Another minor thing I noticed is that on the 209 Rom, the caller photo is full screen while it is a small circle in 211. :)
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
That's strange. I didn't change anything in B211 except the default region.
[Huawei P8max] Leechoonhwee:
I realise another thing this morning. When we apply a font or icon in the theme engine, it flashes some error on the screen and the changes is not applied although it is selected.

hi again ppl

im afraid to say im stuck :/ unable to obtain the f**king unlock bootloader code via the huawei page. always says "The Huawei ID used to apply for the unlock code has not been used on the device for more than 14 days." (which is false though).

any other method to obtain the bootloader code or to fastboot recovery without it?

thanks in advance

[Huawei P8max] p8_user:
My P8 max was already rooted, when I install 211 ROM , it got stuck in logo prompt and dosen't bootup..

Any help is highly appreciated
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
Try forced install of b028 rom (dload floder, volume buttons). You'll find information here on the forums.

If forced install won't work you'll probably need to extract and flash few components from B029 rom.

[Huawei P8max] adwinp:
[MENTION=1397125]ajsmsg78[/MENTION]

did you change any prop or cust. to modify the behaviour of the updater?

I'd like to reinstall a stock ROM via the local updater method but cannot select the file, as there no longer is any overflow menu.

Or could you enable the old Updater?
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
There is no more local updater in Emui 4. You have to put the file you want to update to in a dload folder on your internal storage them turn the phone off. Then hold in vol up + vol down and press power and it will boot right into the updater. I recommend fastboot flashing the stock rom before going back.
[Huawei P8max] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
Here is mine cust folder from 701L

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7uElK44idejZ0NXRVBEUG5wX1U/view
[Huawei P8max] adwinp:
It doesn't seem to work this way.

vol up+down requires you to plug in your USB cable to your PC (most probably for tethering) & the system proceeds to download an update, but hangs @90% all the time (I have made a full factory reset including internal storage, so a lot of free space there).

I have dload/UPDATE.APP both on the internal storage & external sdcard, in which case I don't understand why the recovery still wants to download the update as opposed to using the local file.

The only thing which comes to mind is the customization partition, as your ROM identifies itself as kangvip & not as some Huawei stock rom.

I would need a copy of a stock cust partition to check this out.
[Huawei P8max] kingkea:
I have 701L is this worth converting to? I've been holding off on root until it gave me some significant advantages.

[Huawei P8max] fux1976:
Hi, I messed up with my p8max 703 too and was stuck on boot up. Tried several times (hours) and finally was able to restore the phone using stock 023 (with higher ones had the same problems of 90% and huawei logo). Hope this was helpful
