And the SecContacts.apk outputed got no positive identification as yours:

Everything is accordingly to the book, so lasts the

that is your specific ROM that contains the weirdness.

[Galaxy S 5 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] LAzY_kRAzY:
I am using the stock samsung rom and firmware..

I dont think its the problem of Rom or framework because all other stock apps decompile and recompile fine..

secondly as I mentioned earlier, I tried with other 5.0 TW roms with their respective frameworks but all had the same response..

so maybe its secContacts.apk issue..

anyways thanks for your effort and time :highfive:
[Galaxy S 5 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Kdio:
Hi LAzY_kRAzY

As you didn't report solving the problem ...

I've been seeing several others getting the same issue you described and, for them, the solution was:

- Do not push original signature while building (without -c parameter)

- Sign the apk with whatever signature you want (different from original anyway)

- Follow [GUIDE]Disable signature verification

Please let us know.

Nice regards.

There is still a follow up from that services.jar method ... but not sure if it applies to our devices.

As you already have services.jar decompiled, check this out:

Same problem from Galaxy J2.
[Galaxy S 5 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] ShinySide:
I don't know if yall have figured it out yet but decompile, make your changes, recompile. Open the newly compiled apk with 7zip/archive manager, open res, delete the raw folder (if there is one) , then open the original apk and drag and drop the res folder from the apk you compiled into the original then push the original. If you make smali changes just do the same thing. Open the new apk drag and drop the classes into the original push the original.

You have to delete the raw folder if swapping the res folder or else the sound file gets compressed and screws everything up

Android 6 is still in Beta!

This are the OTA files to Update your P8Max from B029 (Android 5) to B209/B211 (Android 6):

B029 to B209 OTA DAV-703L

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7q0s3loYhP3YVA4M3dzRWVpS0k

B029 to B211 OTA DAV-703L

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0nXWB4STN0zeXgxckJrX01oTms

B209 to B211 OTA DAVL-703L

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7q0s3loYhP3UHByeEtzSVBoNDA

B211 to B212 OTA DAVL-703L

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7q0s3loYhP3RnFEcEE1WG9mWDA

To enable the local Update on the B209 Beta you need to flash the following Zip File via TWRP

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7q0s3loYhP3Wjluank5MFM2ODA/view
[Huawei P8max] fg3441:
the link for b209 to b211 is not working, can you please post a working link. Thank you for uploading.
[Huawei P8max] gopo2004:
wtf... all the updates only for 703.... 701 is so hated :(
[Huawei P8max] Ideas4ya:
There is a way to run the 703L Roms on your 701L. I donated to the same guy who posts the kangvip ROM and he walked me thru it step by step. I think he's still accepting donations, it's worth a try. :)
[Huawei P8max] propi62:
there is another simplier way to update the b211 without using TWRP for non power users:

1. place the update.zip file (b211) in the DLOAD folder

2. open the phone app and type: *#*#2846579159#*#*

3. now push the HOTA at the end of the list

4. update starts

i had to create the DLOAD folder on the SD card and place the update.zip file in it.

the DLOAD folder on the internal storage did not work for me.

it worked perfect on my 703.
[Huawei P8max] fg3441:
thanks so much y'all
[Huawei P8max] sehooo:
Hi is b211 full stock or beta!?
[Huawei P8max] svarognsa:
There is some action on Huawei Forum. As I can understand there is full official Android 6 update to P8 Max, but for now it is limited to 500 downloads per day and with very limited bandwith. To get it we have to install updates to Huawei stock apps and click few options. I have managed to get to the download point where it prompts that limit has been reached. :(

Update image file name ends with ...029_211.
[Huawei P8max] elijea:
hi! once you put the beta, when the offical anfroid 6 will be released, what will happen ? you have to update manually ? thank you
[Huawei P8max] Leechoonhwee:
Probably don't need if you are on the latest 211.

For those on B029 can you all verify that using the HiCare can update directly from B029 to B211? It seems that they are already releasing the B211 as public OTA but it has to be activated via the HiCare app
[Huawei P8max] elijea:
thank you, I tried an update 1hour ago ( i have b029) by Hicare and no update were available i'll see tonight

Envoyé de mon HUAWEI P8max en utilisant Tapatalk
[Huawei P8max] svarognsa:
Yes, updated HiCare give us the option for direct OTA update from 029 to 211, but there is 500 downloads per day limit. After two days I gave up and used "dload folder" method described on the forum to update first to 209 than to 211. No need for root, unlock boot or TWRP.
[Huawei P8max] Leechoonhwee:
Great! Do you have any issues installing the Google contact sync and running Playstore?
[Huawei P8max] svarognsa:
Yes, I could not find contacts and calendar sync apps in the Huawei Store. I used Google Play Services image (version 9.0.83 440-121911109) from the apkmirror.com to extract and install two small apk files for contacts and calendar synchronization. Used "Google Play Store 6.5.08.D-all [0] 2792142" from the same site. No problems.

Most of the things works fine for now. Few things that I have noticed:

- There are some minor glitches with animation when unlocking the phone with password. No way to turn it off.

- They changed locations of the settings, so it takes time to locate all of them.

- Yellow pages number suggestions in the caller app are so annoying for me. No way to turn it of.

- All apps from the Play Store installed as usual, except Sygic Navigation. When it start to download some additional files, Play Store crash.

- Browsing is not responsive as used to be, both on WiFi and 3G. Not sure why, looks like there is some delay when a lot of small files has been downloaded. Speed is OK with big files.

- There is only 3 options for DPI in EMUI 4. No more per app setting, and it looks a bit strange if you choose smallest setting. Everything becomes smaller (the way I like it), but icons in the home screen stays big and not so sharp.

I'm looking for tutorial for safe root on Android 6, so I can remove most of Huawei Apps.
[Huawei P8max] ringhio99:
Sorry guys, I have the dav version 701L and European rom DAV-701LV100R001C100B002 I upgrade? Or should I wait version via OTA? You can help me? Thank you very much
[Huawei P8max] svarognsa:
B211 must be still in beta phase! I can't beleive it will be final ROM for P8 Max. Such a vaste of hardware potential.

It is obvious in so many small places (like notifications and shortcuts) that it is not yet scaled for our big screen. Also there is strange and annoying lag from time to time. Antutu score droped from 47000 in 5.1 to 42000 in this version. Every task that reqires network connectin is slower than in 5.1.

I have tried hard reset, but nothing improved.
[Huawei P8max] Leechoonhwee:
Apparently, they don't feel too confident about this release and hence earlier beta testers spent half a year evaluating it and I guess they got "most" of the bugs squashed but not 100% yet. I feel that there will be another release after this version that should stabilize most issues like lag, slow network, crashes, etc.
[Huawei P8max] svarognsa:
I want believe that is the true, and that's what's keeping me from unlocking and rooting. B211 is usable, it just feels much more unpolished and laggy than B029. This is my first Chinese phone, and it was very pleasant surprise in hardware department.

Huawei is not some unknown brand in my country, most of major telecom companies offer their flagships phones on contract. Let's hope they can manage to produce stable software release in next few weeks.

Main reason for me to rush for the B211 was the problem with notifications. I have tried all possible options but notifications from apps like Ebay or XDA just does not work. It did not improve a thing, I still get notifications only from Gmail, SMS and phone. Is that some kind of policy from Huawei or what?

And why on Earth did they switch "Messages" tab for "Yellow pages" in dailer app? Every time I type the number in, the phone offers to call some restaurant or flower shop in China!?
[Huawei P8max] elijea:
hi, it seems that it's not possible to create a guest account with b211 ?

Envoyé de mon HUAWEI P8max en utilisant Tapatalk
[Huawei P8max] Leechoonhwee:
Notification works for me, you probably need to give the application permission to allow them to post notification. After testing 211 for a couple of days, I've decided to go back to B029 because that's more stable for me.
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
Hi,

I'm on B029 right now. How do I properly update to B209 or B211? Can I just install the update.zip over TWRP?

Regards
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
If I put the update.zip in the dload folder, and then start the update over local update the phone reboots, I get the update circle, but after 3 or 4 % I get the error:

"Software install failed!

Failed to check the update files. Please download the package again."

I redownloaded the package, but that didn't help. Any ideas?

No one gives a **** about P8max or why is this forum like a desert?
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
No one gives a **** about people who can't read and ask stupid questions.

If you dont understand basics like OTA then you have to search the internet first and inform you about this!

Not everybody is willing to repeat everything again and again if there is allready the solution in this or other threads!

Forum/Google Search is your friend!
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
No offense, I googled for hours and that's why I'm so upset.

What I did so far so maybe you could help me:

1. I flashed stock recovery back

2. I created dload folder on internal memory and put update.zip inside

3. I started local update

4. Phone rebooted, started updating, after few % I got the error I mentioned before

What am I doing wrong? I only find some Chinese forums and they're no help to me.

Maybe I do need TWRP for this update.zip to flash it?

Would appreciate some help as I'm lost right now.
[Huawei P8max] propi62:
Try to place the update zip in a dload folder on a microsd card. Internal storage didnt work on my phone.
[Huawei P8max] rimkhan1:
Thanks for that. It worked really well.
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
Thank you, figured it out yesterday why it didn't work.

Somehow the unrooting button from SuperSU was not enough to unroot, so I had to flash back the stock recovery and then flash the full B029 firmware. Then afterwards the forced update to B211 worked.
[Huawei P8max] propi62:
Do you also have the gmail no push notifications in deepsleep bug (after 2 min screen off) in b211?
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
Yep, this around many other bugs. Reverted back to b029, far better now.
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
i am also back to b029 :)
[Huawei P8max] elijea:
hi, it seems that it's not possible to create a guest account with b211 ? is the same for every one who have B211 ?
[Huawei P8max] Naxxÿ:
Let me see if i got this straight, these links are to update to a Beta version of Android 6.0 right?

I have a 703 P8 Max with B029, android 6.0 (B209/B211) should be available via regular OTA update soon?
[Huawei P8max] Hirs_E_Fruit:
Yes this files update you to the Android 6 Beta!

I dont think there will a OTA soon since the B211 is a little bit crappy for some people.

It will take some time till Huawei release the stable OTA for Android 6 for P8Max.
[Huawei P8max] Naxxÿ:
Thanks for the info.

Well no reason for me not to wait for the official update then, B029 is working like a charm :)

[Huawei P8max] jllk123:
Hi guys. I also update to B211. I want to revert back to B029 as it seems there's not guest/privacy account for the B211. Also the phone is way laggier and slower compared to B029.

How do I revert back B029? Can mooh or greddy help me? I assume I need to first download the OTA rom for B029. Where can I find them? Or is there an option to revert without resorting to manually downloading B029? Pls help
[Huawei P8max] greddy:
i also revert to B029, 100% working notifications, Huawei have much problems with this point. My woman has the normal P8 and the newest Android 6 (GRA-UL10C00B358) and there the same: No notifications in deep sleep, only Viber working.

Here is my B029 (IMG-703L-V100R001C233B029.zip) i use to revert to B029, first fastboot the system, boot and recovery, then boot in recovery and make factory reset and all is good, this working for my DAV-701

[Huawei P8max] jllk123:
I have the B029 rom. How do you fastboot then boot into recovery? I'm totally new to this. I googled a bit but was totally overwhelmed. Sorry.

---------- Post added at 04:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:17 PM ----------

I download the B029 and extract dload to my sd card root directory. I then restarted the phone into boot with Volume + and Volume -

It says updating and when it reaches 5% just when it says installing the new rom, it says update failed. What am I doing wrong? I'm getting frustrated with myself. :(

---------- Post added at 04:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

Don't know what I did. I get the screen that ask me to connect to Hisuite as my phone is locked?

My phone is not rooted btw. I updated to B211 using the original phone software update menu. Now I'm stuck. Phone still boots normally into 6.0
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
Did you unlock your bootloader? Because if you didn't you can't get back to B029, if you updated to B211 once.

You can unlock your bootloader either by using the official Huawei unlock page (there is a howto in the rooting thread), which didn't work for me, or you have to use the dc-unlocker following the instruction:

https://www.dc-unlocker.com/huawei-android-hisilicon-unlock-guide

DC Unlocker isn't free, it will cost you 4$ to get the bootloader unlock code.

Once you have unlocked it, you have to flash several files from the B029 FW (I can upload the files for you once you're done unlocking) like boot.img, recovery.img, cache.img, userdata.img and so on unsing fastboot. There is also a root tools pack here on the forums somewhere.

After you flashed those files, you can force the B028 FW install using VOL+ + VOL- + PWR buttons.
[Huawei P8max] jllk123:
I don't think I have unlocked bootloader. I haven't done anything. I only updated from B029 to B211. Now I'm stucked at B211. So if I have updated to B211. Without unlocking bootloader, I can't just revert to B029?

I will check out your link now. And try to unlock bootloader first.

Once I have done the bootloader unlock, what are the steps needed to be done? At this point. I don't even know whats a fastboot. I will just get my phone unlock first now.

Any further next steps after bootloader unlock is much appreciated. I feel like crying crazy here for how stupid I am for this things. Shouldn't have updated in the first place.

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

I have downloaded dc unlocker. Also purchased credits. However when I went to unlock page, I can't choose to unlock. There is 3 options. Read unlock code, read bootloader code and lock bootloader. It seems my phone is already unlocked?

What should I do next?

---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------

I am still in manufacture mode.

---------- Post added at 06:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

I have set up adb/fastboot installation. And my bootloader is unlocked I think. When I issue the command to fastboot to reboot, the phone shows a White screen again asking me to connect phone to Hisuite and red wordings that the PHONE LOCKED.

What I am doing wrong? I am pretty sure I have unlocked bootloader?

---------- Post added at 06:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 PM ----------

The link for the bootloader unlock is only for sim unlock. It does not unlock bootloader. What should I do? Could someone please help
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
Sorry, gave you the wrong link. You need to use the DC unlocker to read the bootloader code. Then use the code to unlock the bootloader. Here is the link: https://www.dc-unlocker.com/how-to-read-huawei-bootloader-unlock-code

Hi fellow P8max users

I have a problem after updating from 029 to209

the phone sticks at the Huawei logo!!!

PLEASE HELP ME
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
Was your phone rooted or did you have custom recovery?
[Huawei P8max] zenn66:
I had custom recovery and unrooted the phone,,,,,

Finally my phone is working again... put B028 on it through dload on SD card

Now i am still on B029.....
[Huawei P8max] jllk123:
Yeap after fiddling around finally got it. Thank you mooh. I used DC unlocker to get the bootload unlock code. Then use fastboot recovery original recovery. And did a force update using SD card with dload on B029. Finally got it working and perfect again! Thank you so much for your help.

I am very surprised how much better B029 is to B211. Its totally light and days different. Much more responsive compared to B211. B211 has a lot of micro lags. It also does not have any privacy/guest mode. The menus are all bundled up together making it less direct to navigate to. I just didn't like it at all. Its seems I could live with B029 for a while. The battery is perfect already as it is anyway. Could last me a cool 24 hours of heavy use.

Until Huawei fix the nonsense on B211, I wouldn't be upgrading anytime soon. Next time always read the forums first before updating lol. On the downside, I did lost all my photos and apps. Oh well! At least I got it back to the state I want :)
[Huawei P8max] m00h:
You're welcome. I gave B211 a try, even twice, and had to go back to B029 because I couldn't live with the mess that the update converts your phone to. According to the minimal support of the P8max from Huawei, we actually may be stuck to B029 forever, since I don't believe they will fix the issues of the newest fw anytime soon. But that's OK, I'm happy with B029 as it is, I even don't experience any notification issues that you read here about sometimes.

I've a problem with OTA, my 703 is animating huawei logo for hours... I've tried to upgrade b029 to b211

Now I'm a bit stuck... can you probably share img file that can be flashed via fastboot dirrectly without OTA?
[Huawei P8max] xkip:
I did OTA upgrade wrong... this happens when I extracted zip file and forced an update using eRecovery (Up+Down+Power). But when I just placed zip file as is in dload, and initiated via Updater\LocalUpdate it worked... It appears, there is a big difference between those operations.
