Well, if you take a glimpse at the update binary file and read what it's doing, it is supposed to flash the baseband part too.

The about phone displays informations it reads from different files. Those files may not have been changed during the update, hence you still read having the original CN baseband despite the actual files used by the system having been updated.

But regardless of the update, if you've never changed the baseband, then your 206 will have proximity sensor, nfc & no 2g issues.

Flashing the hybrid radio zip will bring the correct resources to your device : those issues will be fixed.

Read TheArt's guide if you need more details. But you just need to flash the zip in TWRP, easy peasy.

Nope. Just sideload it in recovery.
[YotaPhone] Pak07:
Tried with TWRP. Error 7. I think I will just wait the official download.
[YotaPhone] R00S:
Trying to research this more before i flash the baseband. 2g, proximity and nfc works. But wasnt the proximity problems about it always being on? Any ideas how to test that?

LTE works too, but we have several bands in Sweden.
[YotaPhone] ~El Julio~:
You should sideload the OTA with the stock recovery, not TWRP.

The full OTA can be sideloaded with TWRP however.

---------- Post added at 11:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 AM ----------

The fact you don't have those issues indicates you indeed have the RU baseband (despite it displayed as CN), else you would have had these issues.

The signal might not be good enough anyway with that baseband on a 206.

That's why they (some 4pda users) released that hybrid radio zip, it improves on what already working and fixes the previously not working things with 206 having CN baseband on RU firmware.

To test the proximity sensor, simply use an app that can turn it on & off and see if it works.
[YotaPhone] Mad Callahan:
Just downloading OTA-update. My stock Yota is YD201 and latest russian firmware. And now what, waiting android 7 ? :D
[YotaPhone] Pak07:
Same on stock recovery: error 7. Nevermind.
[YotaPhone] ~El Julio~:
Weird. Try the full OTA then.

The OTA you're waiting for is the same package you tried to sideload anyway.

---------- Post added at 11:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

Real 201 ? (Check your physical IMEI in the sim tray to be sure) If so, everything should go smoothly and well.

Regarding Android Nougat, YotaPhone2 will never get it, that's for sure.

Even if YotaDevices wanted to, the hardware doesn't meet Google standards for their (hypothetical) ROM to pass CTS.
[YotaPhone] hippy dave:
Replying to myself, I tried flashing SuperSU one more time to be sure, and it still used systemless, it's working fine, and flashing the standard version of xposed also worked fine.
[YotaPhone] Gifagra:
OTA not available this morning

OTA was extremely slow on yesterday evening (5kb/s) on my YD206 with RU fw, from ITA. This morning it was not available.

Phone say it is updated.

I hope it is only congestion......
[YotaPhone] gorka123:
Are you able to download the OTA update at what rate ? yesterday the download was very slow (30k/s)
[YotaPhone] Kllaude:
Download was very slow, and after 40-50mb it would restart. Had to sideload it.

How is your EPD after the update? Mine is barely usable (washed out, a lot of artefacts from previous views etc..)
[YotaPhone] stanley321:
Installed this one on my 206. I upgraded from stock 4.4.3 HK with CN Baseband.

In Download mode (Vol Down & Power), I flashed 4.4.3 RU, 5.0.1 RU with fastboot command without flashing radio and wiping userdata.

fastboot flash aboot firmware/emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash boot firmware/boot.img
fastboot flash system firmware/system.img
fastboot flash recovery firmware/recovery.img
fastboot flash cache firmware/cache.img
fastboot reboot

Then in recovery mode (Vol Up & Power), I sideloaded the OTA zip from Google Drive above.

adb sideload yotaphone2-user-full-RU1.1.47.zip

So far so good! This feels like a new phone now! Love that Yota Mirror is now always on the nav bar on both display!

Shout out to the YotaPhone ROM team, for their hard work developing this great ROM and inventing new functions on the old-but-not-so-old phone!

Thank you!

Hope we will see a YotaPhone 3!

Try to use white theme for the EPD in Yota Settings, and Disable Animation for the EPD.
[YotaPhone] dmix_shinri:
I am on HK 124d

I download full 1.47 from torrent

Copy that zip file to internal memory

Enter TWRP recovery

Bootanimation

Android is upgrading

Wait..

My previous apps n file still there, working fine.

After that i install root using TWRP, install zip. Detail at all in one guide thread by [MENTION=4493540]TheArt.[/MENTION]

Got bug.

When i mirror apps to EPD, when return to Amoled, brightness become maximum but the slider was at leftmost (minimum brightness). Just need adjust the slider and it return to correct brightness.
[YotaPhone] trentbg:
Same here, since yesterday I haven't even passed 20mb of downloaded data, the speed is terrible 5-10KB/s. What is the deal, that's the first time I see such a slow speeds on an update.
[YotaPhone] fsjon:
Me too in Canada with a YD206, download speed at 5kb/s. Are there that many Yotaphone 2 out there to overwhelm their server? I'm just going to wait and download it through yotaflasher later on and start fresh. I need to fix my radio anyway (was wondering why my prox. sensor was a little wonky on calls) and now is a good opportunity to do so.
[YotaPhone] Pak07:
Used the torrent file (full version) and it works fine in my YD206, except that when I install the modified radio the system shows it is the 3034_CN1, not a russian one.

When installing the official russian radio, it shows the version number ok, but 2G doens't work (as expected).
[YotaPhone] Xliandri:
I got the notification to update and it started, after 20 mins I had to restart my device. Now I don't get any update notification and if I try manually it says phone is up to date. ?

I guess this is cos the servers are overloaded.
[YotaPhone] jeanchri:
The FOTA package does not have the radio folder in it. I got the chinese version and flashed the RU FOTA package and it didn't change the radio.

I first flashed the EU version without the radio folder, so I kept the chinese one and then, flashed FOTA RU and my radio still the same. Hope it helps.

[YotaPhone] 02xda1:
I was on the 1.134 ru on a y206, flashed the ota via twrp, booted it, then flashed su, xposed and viper4arise. Everything works and i'm pleased as. Love the way looks and works.
[YotaPhone] nounous:
Hi 02xda1,

Can you please share with us the link to install viper4arise? Thank you!
[YotaPhone] 02xda1:
Sure thing, it was this one https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767100437 but i flashed this https://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3701986&d=1459364241 first, to install musicfx or it wouldn't boot. Either way, this works for me.
[YotaPhone] ~El Julio~:
Viper4android (2.5.0.5) didn't work for me on 1.1.43. Did you try it on 1.1.47 or directly viper4arise ? (If based on the same version of v4a, both should work)

---------- Post added at 09:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ----------

Didn't look at what those zip installers actually do but do you have (to set) selinux in permissive mode for it to work or is it actually working in enforcing mode ?
[YotaPhone] GetSAS:
So, mine is a YD206 on .134 RU firmware with the chinese radio files.

when i flashed it, i kept the chinese radio files in the folder before flashing it with yotaflasher.

So, how i'm gonna flash it now with the new firmware and keep the cinese radio files?

Or ist it no problem and just let the OTA make the update? I think i'll have to modify the OTA again.

Will there be a HowTo for this?

Thx
[YotaPhone] 02xda1:
The version i linked is the 1.85. it was the newest one i could flash that worked.
[YotaPhone] ~El Julio~:
I haven't ever used other audio mods than viper4android, so I don't know which viper4arise is based on which viper4android version.

I'll search more then. Thanks for the information.
[YotaPhone] 02xda1:
I find it works just as well, if not better than viper4android. A little more flexible and intuitive than the original to use. But ymmv.
[YotaPhone] ~El Julio~:
I'll give it a try.

What about the required SELinux state to get it working ?
[YotaPhone] 02xda1:
I didn't change what it was at default.

It's YD206 or 201?
[YotaPhone] Kytrix:
YD201

Hello,

I have a YD201 with a chineese rom (I guess) *-HK1:1:124d (received like this, after an OTA*update)

2 days ago I unlock the bootloader and install TWRP + root.

- will I get the 6.0 throught OTA ?

- do I need to update to RU1.134 first ?

And most important:

- Is there a risk that I loose some radio config (because network sensibility is good, no like my previous Yota YD206, flashed by the seller as a YD201, but without the needed frequencies)

Thanks

Can confirm this with my 206 too. Very hot even if the phone is just sitting in my pockets.

I have one random reboot too!
[YotaPhone] JabbaEPD:
yota mirror timeout

Hi,

The upgrade was ok for me, I let it finish the download from server and the installation was quite fast.

Only 1 or 2 complains until now:

- Before (RU1.134) when I had one mirror on and some app running, the timeout had no effect, as long as the app was running and visible. Now it doesn't matter, it will timeout after the defined time. For me it's a no-no, as it look like there is no option to disable timeout;

- After timming out, when I press the mirror shortcut on the EPD, the mirror settings for the running app changes and I have to press the apps overview button-select the app again- and now the app is running again on normal setting.

Someone else noticed that?
[YotaPhone] Parmo100:
I tried a few times to do the "adb sideload" using those files after clearing cache, but there was an error in the writing of system.img file. I was using stock RU134 , no root, using recovery, clearing cache
[YotaPhone] stanley321:
I have errors when I sideload it, but I proceeded to reboot it and it's fine.
[YotaPhone] traycold:
hi, after upgrade to MM, and root with SuperSU (2.79), now when launch an app needing root (for example root explorer, but this apply to all apps):

if SuperSU is set to "grant" always root -> everything ok

if SuperSU is set to "prompt" for root access -> no prompt appears and of course the apps don't work

Already tried to empty data of SuperSU, and completely reinstall it (clean feature of SuperSU), but the problem is not solved.

Do you have any clue?

Apart from this, no other issue with MM
[YotaPhone] hippy dave:
Are there still settings to determine which apps' notifications are/aren't displayed on the always-on? Can't find it since updating.

In other news, I've had one spontaneous reboot, which seemed to happen when the battery saver came on at 14%. I sent a bug report.
[YotaPhone] afr33s:
Hi, Not seen this posted yet...

I upgraded to MM from RU-1.34 on my Chinese Yotaphone2 as a ADB sideload of the OTA.

It kept the CN radio and seems to be working great!

Cheers all!
[YotaPhone] master volume:
ok i got notification of update to MM but download was very slow 1-3 kbps :D

it say 24h-2d to finish

so i downloaded this from thread can i flash it with yotaflasher?

or i must install TWRP... im new in this
[YotaPhone] sibKM:
Just a report for MM.

Upgraded OTA from RU latest LL with CN baseband (Y206 NOT unlocked),

and then replaced CN baseband with hybrid CN-RU.

1) signal is ok but seems a little bit worse, switching more often from 4g to 3g

2) The EPD screen is worse in YotaMirror, way too much bright. Insted with EPD apps (yotareader, widgets and so on) is mode defined than LL.

3) Every now and then the brightness of the LCD screen goes max when i'm swithing from EPD to LCD. It seems a little bug but not too annoying

Everything else seems ok, many thanks to our yotadevs ^^
[YotaPhone] asdfffffdsa:
As with the beta, the EPD display is way too bright (or maybe there's not enough contrast?). Really hard to browse the web like this. Switching on and off white theme doesn't seem to affect it. I filed a bug report for this.
[YotaPhone] Cyberdyne:
I started with a YD206 with RU134 ROM and CN modem. I use TWRP 3.0.2.0 and my phone is rooted.

I just copied the update and the full ota zip-files to the internal memory. Why should I use adb sideload?

I booted my phone in recovery mode (vol+ and power) and than I tried to install the zip-file with the update. This did not work: Error 7. Then I tried to install the zip-file with full ota and that worked fine. I wiped cache and dalvik, rooted the phone again and rebooted it. Everything is looking good!

Till now I had no problems with the CN modem but for testing purpose I installed the hyrid CN-RU modem (and also did the LTE B20 hack). Let's see if that works?!

[YotaPhone] LeslieKawiti:
Mini Review Type Thing

Okay just playing around with it for a little while I've noticed a few things. Please keep in mind this is still a beta and they are still working on the bugs obviously.

Overall EPD is still buggy but that was already noted. Animations in general seem weird and glitchy on the EPD.

Unchecking "Lock the always-on display" in security doesn't work. The passcode still remains for the EPD and I don't think you can disable unless you disable passcode outright.

Trying to unlock and input passcode on the EPD can be slow and might not fully finish.

Swiping animation can sometimes happen twice on the EPD and swiping to the "homescreen" just flashes, no animation whatsoever.

Opening the camera doesn't display the EPD shutter unless you take a photo or "swipe" across on the EPD.

Sometimes the opening animation doesn't work on the main display so the app will just flash onto the screen.

There is a new app called YotaSnap and pressing the power button shows a new option it. (Screenshot in attachments)

Opening YotaSnap shows options and tapping on one of them, for example map brings up another screen where it will show you all the screenshots for maps and allows you to take a new one. (Screenshots in attachments)

Clicking on the "Take screenshot" option opens up the specific app and brings up 2 overlays. 1 in the top left corner has an X icon along with the word exit and 1 in the bottom right has a white camera icon in circle. But you can click the home button and go into any app and the overlays stay. (Screenshots in attachments)

There is a new heading in the settings app under YotaPhone called Navigation Panel which has two options one for the "Transfer button" and one for Yotasnap. (Screenshots in attachments)

The transfer button seems to basically be Yotamirror but it only works for a specific app it doesn't mirror the whole display like before.

The shortcuts on the EPD for phone, messaging and email mirror the main display apps not EPD specific apps like on lollipop and the notification button doesn't do anything for me.

I'm not sure if this is new but Android Pay comes preinstalled and there is an option in settings called "Tap & pay"

If you want to know anything else I can try to answer them for you but overall the update feels snappy with a few little bugs. So basically a beta. :laugh::silly::victory: I'd only recommend updating if you understand this is a BETA and there will be BUGS, not everything in this update is perfect.

Oh and don't ask me about battery life I've had it installed for just over 1 hour.

The version I installed was RU1.1.18 but there was an OTA released for a newer version I think, build number is RU1.1.127 I haven't installed it yet but going by the file name I have to downgrade to lollipop and update all over again so not sure if I will bother :(:(:crying::crying::crying::crying:

Here's a link for the curious and maybe OP can include it in the first post. I think all install instructions remain the same but please double check. (All thanks goes to AlexRUS72 @ 4pda.ru) https://cloud.mail.ru/public/G6Dv/bB9YE5AD5

did you update lollipop to the latest ( means over OTA update) before you go to Android m or you just flash lollipop then go to android m.?

[YotaPhone] evilracer123:
Yeah, I flashed 1.1.124, then ran 134 OTA ( I have the zip downloaded on my computer) and then the Marshmallow zip. Marshmallow will only install on top of the latest RU Lollipop build.
