After you changed the setting, if you go to the storage settings on the phone, I bet it says default storage is SD card and you can't software eject the SD card now, is that correct? If so, you don't need HiSuite to change the default storage to SD card. You can do it from the phone storage screen.

I installed that game, and yes, I see it's huge like you said and changing the default storage to SD card does make a huge part of the game install to the SD card.

I'm pretty sure I missed where somebody said how, but how did you get b140 firmware? And are you using AT&T or a branch of it?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] enigma2446:
I'm on Cricket using the Xt if that's relevant.

"Mvno Master"
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] jarrettsuydam:
I am as well. The att website shows b140 is available but the software update app says I'm up to date. I'm currently on 130.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] Kalmarin:
I'm on AT&T, update showed up a couple hours after activating the phone.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] jarrettsuydam:
Can anyone else confirm the update wasn't offered unless you are using an AT&T sim card?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I know people on an AT&T MVNO got the update also. My phone has never seen an active SIM and no update in the less than a week since I've been checking. :( How many days have been doing the update check on your phone?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] jarrettsuydam:
I've had mine since black Friday on cricket and no update yet.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I also unlocked the bootloader on mine and got the unlock code from AT&T for carrier unlock. Don't know if those are relevant to not getting update or if it's just SIM not being activated.

After the bootloader unlock, every time I reboot, I get a screen about the phone being insecure - is that normal?

If you know someone with an active AT&T nano SIM, borrowing it to try updating might work :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] jarrettsuydam:
I also have the insecure warning after unlock. I forgot what brand I think it was Motorola but it had just a little lock that was unlocked at the bottom... IMO alot better than this whole splash screen warning. We just have to wait for somebody that's on an at&t mvno to say if they got it to know if it's possible and how they did it.

I honestly just can wait to put vanilla marshmallow on here without all the bloat.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
It is possible to get the update with TracFone MVNO. Those people with TracFone AT&T SIMs have received the update.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] jarrettsuydam:
But we're they bootloader unlocked prior? I'm thinking it may have something to do with it.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Don't know, as they don't talk about rooting phones in that thread at all.

Hopefully someone here unlocked and got the update and will post :) .

Not sure exactly what the update will buy us. Anyone know, aside from the latest security update, whatever that really means.

EDIT: Some of the update details

" What's new: Android device security updates

What's changing: NameID User Interface (UI) updates, GoPhone SIM card setup updates, Google permissions updates, and browser update to default to home.att.com"

https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...ystep_KM1133944?make=Huawei&model=HuaweiH1611
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Downloaded the update

[MENTION=1318633]jarrettsuydam[/MENTION],

I went ahead and got a TracFone BYOP SIM ($1 for the kit at Best Buy, Dollar General, Target, Amazon.com)

https://www.amazon.com/TracFone-Bring-Your-Phone-Activation/dp/B014X62KUE/ and activated a AT&T nano SIM from the kit.

Then I had to fool with the time on the phone and set it ahead a day because the phone wanted me to wait about 10 hours more since I last checked for updates (only lets me check once every 24 hours without doing a factory reset) ........ and it then let me download the 130 to 140 update file over WiFi. I have not installed the downloaded update file yet (I just have to hit continue anytime I decide to or maybe it will install itself if I reboot the phone), but it seems like you must have an active SIM and we know AT&T and MVNO TracFone whatever other people said who got the update works. Minimum airtime purchase on TracFone is $20 + taxes and fees for a 60 minutes/90 day card https://www.tracfone.com/direct/Purchase?payGo=true&app=TRACFONE&lang=en which becomes 180 talk/180 text/180 MB data / 90 days for a smartphone/BYOP on TracFone.

Lemme know if you have questions :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
EDIT: It appears that there's more than just the /dload .zip file I posted, so unless I find out where it is, you can't update to B140 using it.

Merry Christmas.... . Ho ho ho! :)

The Huawei Ascend XT B140 firmware update file out of the /dload folder is attached. I don't know how you would install it, as /dload is not user writable. I can't delete the file either. So far I have not installed the update.

I wonder if putting the file in external SD /dload will let you install it?

Anyone know how I can revive my phone? I had the boot loader unlocked and was moving my way up to B160 but screwed up somehow. TWRP doesn't boot up if I hold the proper buttons. It also doesn't have an OS loaded anymore. It'll get to the EMUI screen asking to continue boot/reset/wipe cache. If I select continue boot, it'll reset and get to the same screen.

[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CalculonsTalent:
I notice on stock b160 (and prior) Bluetooth HID devices (specifically iPEGA controllers) are not working. You can connect to the device but they do not provide input. These same controllers work fine on other android devices I have running 6.0.1. Some google searches indicates this might be an issue across the entire Huawei device line.

Does anyone know if there's a custom kernel that fixes this?

Thanks!

People with LG Phoenix 2 GoPhones that came out long before the Huawei Ascend XT are reporting an AT&T update to take the phone up to Nougat. I wonder if the XT will get updated to N?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CalculonsTalent:
I assume that updates are developed by the manufacturer, so LG updated that device to N, not AT&T. I have no idea if Huawei plans to update these or not, but they have previously announced some other devices going to N and this device was not on that list. I hope we get it though.

Does AT&T pay a manufacturer to develop updates? I'm curious how that works.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] Paisley Pirate:
Normally no, the phone manufacturera are the ones that will/won't upgrade. I imagine that there are several factors that drive this. Total number of units out there, chipset and other included components (for drivers) similar phone compatibility (more installed base), type of user base.

I hate to say it, but this not being a "flagship" phone and being a pay-as-you-go type phone, they don't have the monetary incentives to do it. I hope I'm wrong but I doubt we'll see much more than security updates.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] webosFTW:
Any chance this phone is dual SIM? If you shine a light into the Sim slot it looks like there are vertical contacts that seem to be similar to the Sim near the end where the sd card goes. Other models you can exchange the sd card for an additional SI'm.

Root

So I unlocked the phone and can boot to the boot loader when I type in the command "fastboot boot TWRP.img" I get waiting for any device. Any info would be appreciated. I'm also using a Mac
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
What happens when you type

"fastboot devices" from the command prompt? Is the MAC driver recognizing you phone?

You should see something like:

"XXXXXXXX fastboot"

In normal phone mode, you should also be able to type

"adb devices" from the phone and it should recognize your phone and output something like:

"List of devices attached

A9MXXXXXXXXXX device"

[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
People have reported that it's not as easy now as it used to be because AT&T now won't unlock unless the phone has been used for 6 months on AT&T Prepaid. You might try buying an unlock code on eBay for a few bucks if the seller guarantees you money back.

How would I go about flashing a new custom kernel when I already have one. I'm on a stock rooted ROM

NDE63V

.

When I had my Nexus 6P, I would dirty flash my ROM then flash new kernel.

ex. Flashing franco to replace ElementalX.

Kernel: ElementalX v. 1.00

Build: NDE63V

TWRP: YES Booted not Flashed

Rooted: YES
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] airmaxx23:
Since you'd be flashing Franco Kernel with fastboot just flash the stock boot.img before FK.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] YellowSnowman23:
I was told back in a Nexus 6P thread that kernels like ElementalX changed stuff in the /system folder as well?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] flar2:
ElementalX doesn't change anything in system or root, just the boot.img.

TWRP, SuperSU and ElementalX only affect the boot.img. If you want to take OTAs in the future, you can install all of these and simply re-flash the stock boot.img to undo any of them.

[Sorry for my bad English ;)]
[General Questions and Answers] r3cebarnett:
Hey guys, I've tried my hand at self diagnosing this issue and with lots of man hours and research into this I have no idea where else to turn. The problem is with a tablet and the tablet in question is the HP Slate Pro 8 (or something along those lines). I've already been on tech support with Sprint (the company that gave me the tablet for free) and HP and none have really been able to help.

The specific issue is when I try to update the firmware, it gives me Status 7, Installation Aborted, saying that one of the system files is R/W and it recommends reflashing the device. The issue with that is that HP doesn't have a stock image available to the public as far as I know. My device isn't rooted or anything but I'd go through anything for me to be able to fix this issue. If you need any other info from me to help me fix it I'll be right here, just watching YouTube in another tab. Another important issue is for some reason, I can't reboot into bootloader, so that's a huge issue I think.

Things that I've tried: there was some support image on HP's site but when I tried to update through adb w/ that file, it said that the whole-file verification failed or something like that. Can't flash an image because bootloader won't load.
[General Questions and Answers] r3cebarnett:
Things to note: The HP Pro Slate 8 is a very generic tablet. Also when I say it won't let me into bootloader, it either gets into a reboot loop or softlocks on the "Powered by Android" screen.
[General Questions and Answers] highvoltagelife88:
Same problem

Ever find a solution?
[General Questions and Answers] r3cebarnett:
I wish

I kinda gave up on it, HP never returned a call that I had sent them and I didnt feel like fighting them for it. I might still have the tablet. I would recommend calling the HP support line and then like really stressing that this is an advanced issue and you needed the stock ROM for it. They'll give you a different number that you can try, and keep trying that other number.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Status 7 usually means the file being flashed does not match the device's model number or that the file is not compatible with your recovery. This happens when trying to flash custom software using a stock recovery or when trying to flash an unmodified stock file using a custom recovery.

Can you boot the device into stock recovery mode? If HP removed the ability to boot into recovery mode, that might be why you're getting the error because it requires stock recovery to apply the update.
