I would tell you the most convenient method:

Open the latest version of firmware finder.

Click the Full OTA of the build you want to install.

Click on "Check firmware Access" and select the option with IMEI.

If the firmware isnt approved for installation, try another one.

If it's approved for installation, select the option "get update through DNS", then select "register update", and then finally select "change DNS".

Then go to system update app and check for updates.

When an update gets available, disconnect the DNS from the notification panel. Then start downloading the update.

It will download and install normally like an official system update.

See what I can do.any way....thank you
[Other Tools & General Discussion] Hamed.sh:
Got that.I just updated to b374.

What's new in this build number? ?
[Other Tools & General Discussion] Durr.e.Adan:
Well the build numbers are different for different devices and pack different features or security updates.

You can check the changelog for your build in the device settings.
[Other Tools & General Discussion] jusma:
I have a Huawei Nova 2 (PIC-LX9C432). The build number is 130 and when I use this app, it tells me that 140 is available. However whether I use the DNS/In-Proxy method to have the Settings->Updater app download or the firmware finder app to download and try to update using dload folder, it always fails.

I even checked my phone's vendor country info as hw/eu and I can see this folder on the cust folder. Please help. Would downloading and manually updating to a FullOTA of build 140 or 150 help? Where can I download it from. Searched high and low on the internet, unsuccessfully.

If I can find .img partition images, I could also just fastboot flash them
[Other Tools & General Discussion] Durr.e.Adan:
Most probably the firmware you are trying to install isn't approved for installation on your device. Check the firmware Access before trying to install the firmware.

For example, my device is on B187 but there are newer builds available in FF app (B202, B203, B204 and B206) but none of them isn't approved for installation on my device YET. You have to wait for Huawei for approve the firmware before you can install it.

- There may be a workaround to force install a build that I am not aware of. (But still it's not recommended to install builds which are approved yet)
[Other Tools & General Discussion] jusma:
I had checked firmware access using IMEI number and it said I was approved to install the mentioned firmware.
[Other Tools & General Discussion] Durr.e.Adan:
Are you trying to install Full OTA (which is approx 2GB in size) or the smaller one?
[Other Tools & General Discussion] jusma:
It only shows the smaller one, even if I change the settings to show only FullOTA. It's a ~700MB file that has update.app and some other files in the update.zip file.
[Other Tools & General Discussion] jusma:
I downloaded four files:

1) update.zip

2) update_data_public.zip

3) update_PIC-L09_hw_eu.zip

4) update_PIC-L29_hw_eu.zip

How am I supposed to organise the files so that installation does not fail

Hello to all, I've a P10 VTR-L09C432. I would like to know if someone has been _really_ able to:

- unlock bootloader,

- flash TWRP,

- root with Superuser,

- download a newer Full-OTA firmware

- INSTALL IT MANUALLY VIA TWRP,

- keep the bootloader unlocked and root after manual update

Yesterday I installed the Full approved OTA B203 in my device through the DNS method. Although it installed successfully, the build didn't change after the update. It still shows B187. Now I am receiving an official OTA update from the offficial system update app (FF isn't involved), it's a 300MB update comprising B199.

When I tried to install it, it downloaded successfully but failed verification.

Should I download it's full package and install it?

Am I on B203 but can't see the correct build number?

If I install the full package of B199, will I be downgraded to B199 from B203 or upgraded from B187 to B199?

When I first used firmware finder I selected the wrong version of B371 for my P9 Lite...afterwards I eneded up with the dreaded NRD90M test - keys ....but now even when I start a new fresh build from B131 -> B161 ...as soon as I give updater access rights, the same version (B371 NRD90M test - keys version) ends up ready to be applied...obviously if I apply this version I end up with NRD90M test - keys ...so how do I get my phone to break out of this cycle...in other words, how is firmware finder telling my phone constantly that there's an upgrade to B371 available? (or what has it done to my phone for it to think there's an update available - even after a fresh build)
[Other Tools & General Discussion] Mostar088:
When u go to B371 u need to choose FullOTA-MF-PV, and then choose Download Latest Full Packege in Menu in Updater.
[Other Tools & General Discussion] drew_peacock:
I'm pretty sure that's what I've been doing...but I always end up with a version that shows 1.25gb in the updater & if I install that I end up with NRD90M test - keys ...it's as if - having selected the wrong version in firmware finder - that I'm doomed always to install that when I use the upgrader (even if I've selected a different version in firmware finder subsequently)

[Other Tools & General Discussion] lintern:
If you are stuck updating select one of the earlier updates from the firmware finder app first. I had trouble updating to the B131 build on my Mate 10 Pro. What I did was go to the firmware finder app and select the update as a FullOTA-MF. Don't select any of the files to download but click the IN-APP PROXY and then go to your wifi settings and change your connection to the proxy. Once you have done this go to sytem update which should now show the update you selected by pressing the IN-APP PROXY button in the firmware finder app. Don't select update just yet and go back to your wifi settings and change your connection back to normal removing the proxy settings. Once this is done go to system update again and begin the download. I did this on my Mate 10 Pro going from B128 - B129 - B131. I have found that if you try updating staright from the B128 build to the B131 build it will only show up as a 500mb on sytem update. So go from B128 - B129 - B131. Good luck.

[Other Tools & General Discussion] jerryhou85:
If it is an official store by Huawei or authorized reseller, the phone would be for the region.

If it is just a random store, they may get their sources from anywhere, maybe China, maybe Europe...

You can check the firmware version number to find out which region's firmware is installed.

Newb question.

I have an Honor V8 (KNT-AL20). I'm using the Android app and it correctly enters KNT as my model and shows lots of ROMs. Currently this phone appears to be only available in the Chinese market.

Question - as none of the individual V8 models show any ROMS in the app, are these KNT ROMs usable on all V8 models?

I'm desperate to root my V8 but I won't start messing with it until I have a stock recovery and a full stock ROM to fall back on. I've clicked on the "Download Full ROM" in settings but the phone says none are available. OTA works as I've received 2 since I bought the phone.

My current ROM is KNT-AL20C00B151

TIA
[Other Tools & General Discussion] gmanrainy:
Hello , i think not, need find folder with firmwares for knt-al20, and for more information visit forum about your phone.

usually when you install the update is not in the air, it is necessary to comply with the same locale as your KNT-AL20C00
[Other Tools & General Discussion] brackenhill_mob:
I was afraid of that. And that's where my problem lies - there are no forums here on XDA or any other site that I can find other than Huawei's own. And their site is in Chinese (thank heavens for Google Translate!) but any thread with reference to a ROM/TWRP/root is immediately blocked.

I've been rooting phones since 1999 (I'm ex telecoms) so I'm finding this very frustrating. The V8 is a brilliant phone but now it seems unlikely to be seen outside China (I'd hoped India might get it).

All help/ideas/suggestions gratefully received!

Unfortunately it seems to download the wrong file. After the unpack, the dload upgrade falls at about 10%.

I captured the OTA full update file when my phone got the update notification from Honor/Huawei and moved it to my PC so I could see if there were differences. The files are several 100k's dissect in size (the "official" OTA is smaller)

Hi Guys, great app but I'm stuck on needing an image for CLT-09 Huawei P20 Pro....I've bricked my lovely new shiney phone :'(
[Other Tools & General Discussion] tdvolland:
Simple answer....

Thank you for trying.

I am not a computer specialist, and so until a few days ago. I had never even heard of TWRP!

Regrettably I bought a Huawei tablet, and now need to root it. ALL I WANT is to install and use Superuser.

I have two older tablets from ASUS and both were rooted within three minutes each! So I assumed this is a simple procedure..

But not on a Huwaei tablet. I was told HERE at xda to unlock the bootloader, otherwise I cannot root the the tablet.

I get instructions consisting of 20 steps, each with software I never heard of, and I have a Huawei tablet which, when told to "adb reboot bootloader" in the cmd, each times disables USB debugging, as I can see after restarting!

I will be happy to follow your instructions, if you can tell me to root this M3 BAH-W09...

As soon as I start using adb on the cmd window, the Huawei software switches off USB debugging, stopping me to unlock the bootloader on this model BAH-W09, it seems to work on the L09.
