CURRENT VERSION

B211 (8-18-16)

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528048818

CHANGELOGS

04-16-16: Android 6.0 Marshmallow, EMUI 4.0. Added TWRP flashable Removed Apps.

05-02-16: Updated to B211. Changed default region to the US to fix some bugs.

05-13-16: Changed region back to default. Multiwindow for 351 different apps should be working.

06-10-16: Added in some more cust folders (cust/hw/eu and cust/hw/seas)

08-18-16: Xposed preinstalled, Xposed App Settings preinstalled, new boot animation, double tap to wake enabled by default.

HELPFUL TIPS

-To help prevent apps from not showing notifications move them from data/app to system/app and set the proper permissions. (rwxr-xr-x for folders and rw-r--r-- for apk's)

-To remove any Chinese writing on the date in the statusbar go to Settings-K-Settings-Notification Settings and disable status bar lunar

-To remove any Chinese writing on the lockscreen go to Settings-K-Settings-Lockscreen and desktop settings and disable Lunar calendar & Desktop weather lunar.

-To add additional Google accounts go to Settings-->Advanced Settings-->Backup & Reset-->Make sure Back up my data is on. Then tap Backup Account and hit add account.

-When using the DPI changer in K-Settings do not use the stock Huawei App Layout option to change DPI. They don't play nicely together.

Great, thanks.
[Huawei P8max] tshafeek:
Great , looking forward to it.
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
I need the /cust folders from any of the international versions 701, 702 so I can integrate them into the rom.
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
Xposed and Play Services are crashing.
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
On the chinese forum version i dont have this problems
[Huawei P8max] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
Would be great to use this for the 701L. What files do you need?
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
The /cust folder from the original stock rom of your device.
[Huawei P8max] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
Oké thanks, here it is: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7uElK44idejZ0NXRVBEUG5wX1U/view?usp=docslist_api
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
I tried your version but unable to Google Play Store and Xposed to work.

Right now I use the Chinese Version and removed the Bloatware there and rooted it with SuperSU and all works right now.

What are the difference from yours and the Chinese one?
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
What is wrong with xposed? What doesn't work? If you can't get the framework to activate, go into xposed settings and check the box that says Disabled Resource Hooks, then restart.
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
Allready tried it.

Everytime I want to download a module it chrashes and android shows me that xposed service hast stopped.

Had the same problem with play store, everytime i wanted to start it and enter my account it says that google play service hast stopped.

Now i use the KangVIP from the Chinese forum and xposed is working.
[Huawei P8max] moviehunter2009:
when you solve the problems with google play ill try it.
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
Can anyone send me the google play they downloaded from the Huawei App Store?
[Huawei P8max] quasar556:
I can't wait to try this on my 701 when it's available thanks for working on this much appreciated
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
I flashed OpenGAPPS.
[Huawei P8max] moviehunter2009:
Sorry i didnt downloaded from the Huawei App Store...It came with google installed from Vickmall...and they still work fine after 2 updates.
[Huawei P8max] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
Well on The 701L the Google apps are already installed. On the Chinese one you must install custom Google apps in the Huawei Store.
[Huawei P8max] siddartha:

[Huawei P8max] quasar556:
Hi guys I'm stuck with this i have a 701 on b005 i managed to fastboot the boot,recovey,cust and system files and when my phone boots up it says it is 703 on b029 but i cannot get the update to b029 to work from the dload folder to make it fully a 703. i have tried wiping everything with twrp but no luck the update gets to 95% and gives me a fail message whatever i do can anyone think what i am doing wrong also sorry for being stupid but when do i flash the universal p8 cust.zip.

Many thanks in advance
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
When you do a full wipe what boxes do you select?
[Huawei P8max] siddartha:
all boxes except ext. card
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Ok so you wipe via twrp the reboot to bootloader mode. Then you flash all img files then reboot. I follow these exact same steps and I have wiped everything except ext. card like you. When my phone reboots it takes like maybe 5 to 8 minutes before I see select language screen. I just hope your waiting long enough for the phone to reboot.. you will see the flashing wings for a while .
[Huawei P8max] siddartha:
i make exactly the same, but my phone boots to the huawei logo and after a few seconds starts new in the logo and it makes this ever and ever and ever...

i have no idea what it is!? :(

maybe a hardware error?

[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
Try going to Wipe then Format data, them typing in yes. See if that helps.
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
On the X2 if the update fails at 95% then it still doesn't actually fail. It just fails updating the cust partition. A restart and a flash of the universal cust should fix that and make it officially on B209. Then you should be able to flash KangVIP Slim.
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
which Universal-Cust ? I have only the b029 Univeral-Cust for flash ...
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
I have flashed B209 and it loads but WiFi and Bluetooth is not working. Any suggestions? Thanks.
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
Stock B209 or KangVIP ?
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
KangVIP
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Yes are there any viable alternative workarounds for this problem? I tried going back to b023 then upgraded via power button volume to b029 then upgraded b209 via local update. Still no BT or WiFi.. Even tried the cust zip flash and still no go.
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
now we are 3 or 4 peoples with the same problem :(
[Huawei P8max] siddartha:
no, i do this, but no working... bootloop :(
[Huawei P8max] Ideas4ya:
Hey guys I've run into this problem while converting my 701L to 703L. My only advice is to start fresh with B023. Make a twrp backup and put it on your ext SD card and also on your PC.

Then take the official update to B029 and your wifi and Bluetooth should still be working.

Let's get everyone on B029 successfully with everything working, first.

---------- Post added at 06:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:10 PM ----------

You will need to wipe everything except your ext card. Be sure to have stock recovery and twrp-p8 max on your computer ready to fastboot because you'll need them both for everything to go right.

---------- Post added at 06:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 PM ----------

Be sure to have the cust zip and all 4 B209 IMG files on your PC with the latest adb drivers installed. I'm going to let the expert ajsmsg78 take it from here.
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Thanks Ideas4ya. But here is the big question. I have the b209 update and that has folders 4 to be exact with the update.app. I can't extract img files unless I make them into img files. So are you converting the folders into img's?
[Huawei P8max] Ideas4ya:
Good question...from this point, put the entire update.zip in the dload folder. The B209 update won't flash successfully if you just flash the update.app like some of the previous updates. I also used the power + vol keys method to do this part of the update once the entire zip is in the dload folder.

---------- Post added at 07:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

No extraction needed once you are at this point. Be sure to backup using twrp first, then move it to your pc, fastboot official recovery, then update via the method I listed. After update, boot into recovery and perform a factory reset.
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
OK cool then we're on the same page with that.. But I did go back to rom b023 then update via power button to b029 then local update to b209. BTW my p8 is a natural 703L lol. So don't have to convert anything.
[Huawei P8max] Ideas4ya:
So your wifi and BT works on B029 but not on B209?
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Yes once It boots to the new kangvip marshmallow everything works but BT and WiFi..
[Huawei P8max] Ideas4ya:
It sounds like somehow your modem got corrupted. I converted from 701L to 703L so my hardware may be a bit different. Buuuut hiris was able to get it going. Hiris may be able to help. Sometimes all ppl need is a little donation and they become very vocal lol. It's worth a try. I can't really say more, I'm afraid I would lead you in the wrong direction.

---------- Post added at 08:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 PM ----------

Does your wifi and BT work on stock B209?
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Lol.. Ok
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
You have original an 701 ? You use now stock 209 or KangVip ?

Greets, Peter
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
No my pmax is a 703L version phone
[Huawei P8max] Ideas4ya:
Yes I had an official 701L, I converted.
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
I am hoping SOMEBODY can clarify this upgrade mess that a lot of people are having with Stock B209. It seems that most people can't upgrade from B029 to B209 without it hanging on Huawei Logo screen. I can upgrade from B029 to KangVIP rom, but that doesn't help as Wifi and Bluetooth doesn't work.

When we upgrade from B029 to B209 via the dload process or local update, it upgrades in 5 seconds and then reboots and is frozen at the logo screen. The problem seems to be with the update.app being so small and then there is the accompanying folders.......

So here is my questions: How do we get the images from the update.zip or update.app? (when I unzip the zip file, it shows 4 folders: cust, META-INF, patch and system)

What are the exact files that we put in to the dload folder?

Do we have to upgrade from B029 and can we go into TWRP and do a factory reset before we update via the dload method?

Step by step instructions would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
when i try to go back with fastboot flashing the 4 files to 002,005 or 029 no of the systems running stable. I have also trwp backups of

all versions and no one running stable. Only when i flash the kangvip its running stable, but without wifi and bt.

Other people wrote the reason are modem-partition or other partitions, (i.e. cust, splash, hifi, mcuimage and so on)

i think also this is the reason. i think one of the updates changed a thing we dont know and now we can nothing do.

greets, Peter
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
I can go back to all of the previous versions and have no problems. The big problem is flashing B209. I have tried everything and nothing works. When we flash B209 with the dload option, it takes 5 seconds and then says its ok and then restarts. The problem is the size of the update.app file which is only 60mb's and that doesn't seem correct for the system to update. What about the folders that is in the B209 update.zip file?
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
this update only patch much files ... and when it took only 5 or 15 seconds it can not be right and then its not complete :(

even the update says all is ready and 100% okay.
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
The B209 OTA should be around 1,2 GB.
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
It is but when you unzip the files it extracts an update.app (approx. 60mb) and then the 4 folders mentioned in my previous post. All the B has the same problem. Do you have a link for stock B209 or can you pm me? Thanks.
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
an FULL-Update (not OTA) B209 with System.img not exist i think!

greets, Peter
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
I think you might be a little confused like I was ..

Ok this is what you do. Be on the stock b029 rom then dload flash the b209 update. Now the phone won't boot just by flashing that b209 update so you have to twrp flash the kangvip b209 zip and boot into bootloader.

Then you flash stock recovery.img reboot give it some time maybe like 5 to 8min then the phone should boot to the new rom. Bad news is most likely you wont have BT or WiFI working though so I guess thats being worked on

because no one has posted a legit fix esp if your phone is the 703L version. I used the rom all day and most things seem to work ok just not BT and Wifi yet.
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
I should have a KangVIP B211 rom for you guys during the week when I get back from vacation.
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
I understand the process, however I don't think it's possible to update to b209 because of the small size of the update.app file. It's only approximately 60mb and needs to be much larger for it to work. Then there is the 4 folders that nobody knows what to do with them. I can boot to kangvip but wifi and bluetooth doesn't work. I want to update to b209 stock and see if wifi and bluetooth work.

Has anybody successfully updated to stock b209? If so, PLEASE give a tutorial on how to do this.
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
forget the "small" size of the update.app. The whole archiv is over 1.2 gb. Look more and deeper in the Directorys, you will see much of

.p files, these are patch files. The B209 Update looking for the original B029 files and patch then all to another level. And when you count you will find 1403 .p files, this mean 1403 files will be patched to Level B209.

When the source status from the B029 is not 100% perfect or original, the B209 can not patch all clearly. Then you have an mix and problems.

sorry for my bad english.

My other Theorie is the cust partition. I have an twrp 2.8.7.0 with another logo "P8 Max Edition and this can also backup splash2, cust and newsys, maybe we need also the cust pastition from a clean B209 or B211 ... but its only my theorie.

Or we need an FULL-Update B209/B211 ... with system.img, cust and so on, but this not exist from huawei

Greets, Peter
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
I understand the overall large file size but when it updates from the Dload method it takes around 10 seconds to compete. I just don't understand how it can update so quickly. Do you have a copy of the recovery "P8 Max Edition" file? I appreciate it. Thanks.
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
It looks like he's using the TWRP that I modded for the Mate 8. Here's a link to it.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5I_q70mNuR4MFBCRWJMemJPWUk/view?usp=docslist_api
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
i dont think the phone can patch more then 1000 files in 10 seconds :) this is the problem :) We dont know what the phone do but its not right.

greets, Peter

---------- Post added at 10:31 ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 ----------

Aaahhh, good. Can you modify the twrp that we can also backup/restore the modem and other partitions ?

Greets, Peter
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
Updated to B211. I changed the default region to en-US. Let me know if wifi and bluetooth is working in this build.
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
I just flashed your 211 rom from the baidu site and still no wifi or bt.. I'm currently downloading your 211 from via this threads link now and will try it out.
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
OK I flashed the kangvip b211 ROM 1st time off the stock b209 update no Wifi & BT. 2nd time I tried off the b211 ROM still no Wifi & BT. Maybe there is a work around?
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
Is there any update zip file or anything to update to B209 or B211? You have to be on stock B209 or B211 to flash this rom but i'm not sure many people updated yet.
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
I still don't understand how there is no valid links for stock B209?
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
The B209 is really an update and the download link was put in this forum on one of the previous pages. Confusing part is that you must flash the b209 update from being on a stock b029. After you flash that update you have to reboot into twrp and flash the kangvip rom then everything should boot up. The confusing part is I think a lot of people on here including myself thought that the b209 was a stand alone flashable rom and its not. If you just flash the b209 rom update from the b029 stock rom your phone wont boot. I hope that makes sense.
[Huawei P8max] dstarr:
I understand, but what about the people that just want to update to stock B209 without the Kangvip rom? I'm trying to see if stock B209 wifi works. I can update to the Kangvip but work doesn't work. It doesn't make sense that only the Kangvip rom works. There are people that are using the stock B209 rom.

P.s. I still can't find the stock B209 rom link?
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
You are correct ... the B209 I believe is not specifically for our phones that's why you need the kangvip rom intalled on top of those updates in order for them to work. In other words b209 and b211 are not official for our phones because if they were you could just straight flash them like any of our older roms like b029 and below. So either the no Wifi & BT will be fixed or we have to wait for huawei to release the official emui 4.0 update :( .
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
There is a Update file for B209 to B211

These is no full ROM cause this is still a beta.

I have a B211 full working NO-KangVIP ROM on my phone and allready did a rollback to B029 to intall it clean again after a KangVIP ROM flash!

How many of you guys have a DAV-701L and problems?
[Huawei P8max] ajsmsg78:
Here's the B209 update.zip. You have to be on complete stock B029 to flash the update. You can flash it via the dload method on the 703L. Any other model must be converted to a 703L before updating to this.

[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Interesting... I do not have a 701 I have a 703. Care to share the steps on getting b211 running with no kangvip rom? Also are you having problems with the wifi & bt?
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
I dont have any problems.

The steps allready posted here, you have to flash the 4 files, reboot to start screen, forceupdate and then u can easy upgrade to B209/B211
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Ok I thought I tried those steps but I could be doing things wrong.

the 4 img files to flash would they be from the b209 rom?
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
NO, you have to flash the .img files from an offical B029 Full Rom!
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Gotcha ... thanks I was doing it right then just wanted to double check. Thanks for the info.
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Ok I think this method works for the 701L I could never get the phone to boot doing it this way.

I fastboot the 4 .img files from the official b029 rom. Reboot to the start screen "language select".

Turn off the phone then force update the official b029 rom let it complete %100 phone reboots.

I then local flash the b209 after reboot I'm stuck at the Huawei wings screen??? Are these the correct steps?
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
i think you make nothing wrong. I have 701L and the same problem you have. Always i think the problem is on another place.

When i flash the 4 files from stock 029 the system starts and all looking good. But when i click on any icon i hear an short sound

and the phone makes an reboot.

I have try many versions (fastboot with 002,005,029) and i havel also much TWRP Backups from my working 002,005 but also

the twrp backup not anymore working when i make twrp recovery. And i am not stupid, i have many phones here which i flash.

I think one of the trys with twrp or fastboot or ??? changed the modem or oeminfo or ??? i dont know. And then we have no wifi.

greets, Peter
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Hmm.. yea its like by phone won't take the 209 update following the steps Hirs_E_Fruit listed and others. In other words I can't update to a pure b209 stock I can only get there via flashing the kangvip rom but then no wifi or bt..
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
the same here. I make much tests with Hirs_E_Fruit and not found the reason. Hirs_E_Fruit makes a backup from his "cust" partition with

a nice app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ma.wanam.partitions but also no win. Maybe its another fault on any other

partition. Huawei have so much partitions, you can see when you install this app.

greets, Peter

Update: We can verify all our partitions sizes ... then we can see the working phones and not working phones
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
Your B029 was working with BT and Wifi after your forceupdated it?
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Yes I have no problems flashing official updates. My phone just wont take these b209/b211 updates just by flashing them over the stock b029 rom.

---------- Post added at 03:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM ----------

To be honest I don't always have to force flash the b029 rom. I can often just fastboot the 4 .img files from b029 and the phone will boot and work fine.
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
So your phone works normally on the offical B029? No BT/Wifi bugs?

If so its defenitely that the B209/211 update of yours is buggy.
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
Yes you are correct. On the b029 offcial ROM or any older offcial Roms I have no problems. My phone is a 703L out of the box and came with the B029 rom. Also I downloaded the b209/b211 from links provided on this site so I doubt the zips are buggy.
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
You loaded it from the Russian Site or Baidu?
[Huawei P8max] kyungi1:
I downloaded the B209/B211 zips from links people provided in the forum. If that's what you mean.
