I am on C185B520.

All looks good and working. Plus is it has HiCloud which is absent in B552 and B521.

Does not have icon notification option. Just Number and none. A few other added apps.

All looks superb. Pedometer is not working on Flip cover screen as in B521 too. It works on lock screen.

Rest all fantastic. I would suggest it your Original model is L29C185, flash this one. You will be happy......:)

Can only be flashed through TWRP.

Only if you have registered for beta testing, you will get this as OTA. I want link for L29C185 beta, if anyone has.

On B552, Google play store apps can not be downloaded.

unable to setup the new feature "private space" (settings/advanced options/users), as the key board is not coming up to enter pin for fingerprint setup.

Hey all,

I got the L29 Version. So i have to install it this way:

I unlocked the bootloader and have managed to install twrp for EMUI 4.0. Then I flashed Update 23 (2016-11-22). It is working. Now I want to install the new update from 2016-11-24.

Flashing with twrp does not change anything.

I am not an English language pro, so i prefiar to not read all. I searched for a good tutorial (text tutorial not video), but found only one text copied on each page. Can someone help me out to find a good tutorial?

Thanks a lot!
[Mate 8 General] somboons:
go back to stock and bootloder is locked, theme is working, my method is working very well.
[Mate 8 General] Marcelo AF:
Thank you for your always up-to-date information, but your method and a few others here do not work for all models. Possibly only for the Western models, I have seen some here that have not been able to return to emui4.1 or 4.0 and I am one of them, my model is the Chinese, DL00, one of the 4 variations that use the same system, AL00C00BXXX. I've tried all the tips reported here, and logically yours method too, but it does not work, the process ends at 5% saying that the system is incompatible ...:(

My bootloader is unlocked, I even flash the "twrp" that appeared in a post from here, which was just out of curiosity, but other than that, nothing I tried, worked, I read all .... yes, all, I just read all The posts of all these topics and no method worked, there are still some who say that I "have not read". Every rule has its exception.

Can someone help me please?
[Mate 8 General] Marcelo AF:
First of all, thank you for your attention. So, my system was the AL10C00B197, which in the model variation of my device, becomes the DL00C17B197. I used the dload method, I searched for the update and when it downloaded the device, I did the method of replacing the files, the system update and the cust, but it was the wrong cust, because for these dual sim Chinese models, it needs to be The file "update_data_full_dualcu_cn.zip", not the "update_data_full_all_cn.zip", corrected this, my device changed the "NRD90M test-keys" that did not work themes, crashes and etc, to the correct, DL00C17B552, where everything works. But since the first update to Emui5.0, I can not return to 4.1 or 4.0, any rom I use says that the system is incompatible and fails 5%, I have already flashed the recovery of 4.0, 4.1, of the emui5.0 itself extracted with huawei update extractor and nothing ...
[Mate 8 General] gm007:
Flash stock recovery and use b180 or b200 to go back with dload method.

Put dload folder on ur external sd .
[Mate 8 General] somboons:
I will reply later, I have to go bed now.
[Mate 8 General] freaked9:
To flash the hw_init, you need root. I don't know if the beta twrp and the superSU works for rooting the Nougat rom's, but maybe it's worth trying. [MENTION=4008653]somboons[/MENTION]: you meant the hw_init method? Or is something else, i have overlooked? If so, sorry, i tried to search other solutions, but don't find any.
[Mate 8 General] NoOoBsPLAY:
But how do i Flash the stock recovery. The only way i found online says by dload. But that does not work.

[Mate 8 General] bobschmidt:
I think I was out of my depth and screwed up...any help would be much appreciated.

I had KangVIP Slim preinstalled on my NXT-L29 (I bought the phone used). I downloaded the NXT-L29C185B520 update.zip and used TWRP to flash it right right over the KangVIP (I just booted into TWRP and flashed the ZIP--no other steps). At first, it looked fine. It booted into the OS, all of my apps and settings were saved. Then I noticed:

1. bluetooth does not work

2. The mobile data works at first, then reports that no sim card is found.

3. The resolution is all screwy.

4. I am not able to get ADB to work.

5. Root is gone.

I do not know which version of the L29 I have. I tried the * # * # 2846579 # * # * in the dialer method, and it just clears the dialer but nothing pops up. (FWIW, the phone came with a US-type plug).

Any suggestions for what to do? Ideally, I would like to have a working version of Nougat with mobile data and bluetooth

Again, sorry for the newb question--I've been reading the boards for a few hours now and cannot figure out exactly what to do. Thanks.

So I was able to follow the instructions and downgraded to B200, unlocked bootloader, since it got relocked, installed TWRP, and tried to flash both zips. It appears there was some sort of error and only the first one (update.zip) flashed, which gave me the defective form of Nougat again. I was unable to get back into TWRP as it was sending me to Huawei erecovery and as I tried to flash TWRP, I am not stuck in "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted...Your device is booting now" message that does not go away. I can press +/- and power and all it does it reboot and return me to the same message.

I tried dload method to install C185B520 on my LC29C185 mate 8, I am on stock and it failed after 30 seconds in recovery/stock.

Any direct approach that doesn't require twrp or root?
[Mate 8 General] Androwar:
For dload method you have to Wait full official ROM

If u want to install nougat now, then twrp

But u can dload b521 on b520 for example
