[Mate 8 General] wassim79:
The easiest way to rollback is through FF, just change the device model from the top menu to NXT-L29BC185 and then search for BC200 then update the device, you have to take full backup be4 you start, after flashing the room the phone will stuck on the Huawei Logo, then you need to press the power button with volume up, then factory reset... boom ... you will get the B200 this is what I've done.

Now I'm downloading the B560 hope it will work

Hope you got me. Excuse my English

Good luck ...

how well it works.

Here is a guide how to upgrade with Firmware Finder.

Option 6 is importent to choose Download latest full package.

1. Charged phone

2. Enabled installing unknown apps

3. Download Firmware Finder from Google Store (the free version)

what next?

1. Run Firmware Finder

2. Go to settings and Enable Installation via system update.

3. Tool will prompt to download Firmware Finder Proxy - do it then install it

4. Go back to the tool and select firmware of your choice - make sure you select FULL OTA

5. Firmware Finder Proxy window will open - do as described - go to Wifi, advanced add manual proxy as local host with 8080 port

6. Go to phone settings - system update and choose three dots in upper right corner to download full package

7. It will attempt to download it but it may fail (as in my case) with message about unstable internet connection - go back to wifi settings and disable proxy, go back to update and resume it - update should start to download then follow as on screen instructions

Hello guys,

Is there any way to downgrade from B560 to earlier version of EMUI 4 or 4.1? I own a L29C432

Thanks a lot

Should be possible with HiSuite.
[Mate 8 General] tassos_chry:
Could you please explain this?

HiSuite is huawei pc-sync tool.

Hisuite downgrade works only for Chinese models and not for international models.
