Hello, flashed Nougat now my PC is not recognizing the device as adb device. I installed through debrand and dload method. Any driver suggestions?
[Mate 8 General] bluheart:
Just reboot and play with settings about USB and give sometime. Your phone will be recognised easily.

I have tested so many beta ROMs earlier and I say that this beta is a daily driver and I am sticking with this till major release comes out ;)

Hi

My phone is like yours it's NXT-L29C185B320

Can you give me the steps to debrand to AL10 and flash this beta nougat?

And how did you fix the 2 sims problem

I have the bootloader code and the SRK TOOL i want the steps to debrand my phone to AL10

Note: my phone still bootloader locked and not rooted
[Mate 8 General] sozofriend1234:
Hi,

I am on L29 but using KangVIP 357 build. So I have root and everything. Also TWRP goes without saying.

So in above quoted post, you are saying that I can just flash the Nougat ROM directly over the existing ROM (obviously after wiping everything including system and data) and then flash the 4 images using fastboot?

Will it work??

Thanks in advance.. :)

Edit---------------------@2:42AM IST

Never mind. Trying myself now.. Fingers crossed..

Edit----------------@3:56AM IST

It worked. Installed the zip file directly on kangvip 357 using the TWRP recovery (wiped everything) then fastboot flashed the four IMGs.

After that bootlooped.

Went to the stock recovery, did factory reset and BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So gorgeous it is.

Edit-----------------@4:28AM IST

Guys, any idea about gapps??
[Mate 8 General] bluheart:
Unlock boot loader first then debrand or flash twrp

If you are already on TWRP then its easy.

Follow these steps, but beware that nougat is still in beta with few issues.

1) From TWRP, dirty flash nougat ROM

2) Flast CUST cust.img from your stock ROM and also gapps if you want.

3) Reboot into stock recovery via volume up+Power

4) Wipe

5) Reboot

Then install file manager.

I didn't flash gapps, instead I installed only playstore and gmail as I use these oftener then anything else.
[Mate 8 General] AbdulrahmanMG.07:

I just complain about no root situation, that's sucks?☹️??
[Mate 8 General] danterape:
Still for now its not worth to flash.

BT and dual sim arent working. Its quite laggy for now so stay at your systems atm. Not worth to flash. You will be dissapointed. Settings are laggy, homescreens are laggy when you move them. Also its not that fast as we should expect.

Just wait for a new one or official one.

I had to admit that it looks nice! So that is good. But rest is not worth to install it for now :)
[Mate 8 General] Mohammed_99:
can i install on c185 ???
[Mate 8 General] amin318:
I did that for 3 times so i think u can!

But u should use twrp and highly recommend to grab chrome and file manager and huawei bakcup APK files before flashing! For installing them via hisuite after flashing of course

use number 2 frimware , I've test 3 frimwares but number 2 is better than others for me

Well, I've tried the dload method with several roms, since the official ones of my device (AL00C00BXXX), and I can not return to EMUI4.1 or 4.0, I'm stuck in version B054, it was originally in AL10C17B197, as a last resort, I unlocked Bootloader and tried to flash the separate files (BOOT, RECOVERY and SYSTEM) to later use the dload method to downgrade, I can flash all but the system does not. Anyone have an idea? The rom is too unstable, I can not log in to google, apps hang, themes do not work anymore, they worked at startup, not now. I'm practically with a paper weight. Please, if anyone has an idea, I'm willing to try. Grateful.
[Mate 8 General] mlsvcbbn:
Which "dload method" did you used to downgrade?
[Mate 8 General] MarceloAF:
The method using the code on the dialer and the one with the 3 buttons to force the dload.:(
[Mate 8 General] mlsvcbbn:
3 button method should work if you are on stock recovery and if you have update.app (no update.zip) in dload folder...try factory reset then activate developer options and after that put dload folder with update.app into sd card and into internal storage too...then turn off and try 3 buttons method....

Any idea for solve my problem?... Excuse my bad english
[Mate 8 General] ksvictor:
I've tried a few different one by now, and are back to 4.1. From experience it works the best if you dirty flash, as you else will see missing programs and functionality.

Possible solution, install 4.1, use it, then install 5.0 and hope. One version (L29C432B521) worked perfectly for me for 36 hours after which my phone got stuck in e-recovery boot loop.

On l29c432 the best is n. 2 in first post. All works fine, no lags of any kind and battery life is like in emui 4.1. I keep it as firmware for daily use. Use twrp flash method.

How to roll back from Nougat to your region Stock

First check your region via *#*#2846579*#*# then network and region.

Download the latest stock and unzip and put into a dload folder

Reboot into fastboot, flash this recovery

flash boot

Then remove phone from PC and then reboot with VOLUME-UP+POWER and force recovery.

If the recovery shows reboot, factory reset and wipe cache, please wipe cache and repeat VOLUME-UP+POWER again and it will start flashing the firmware.
