Changelog are here:

B588 Dual Sim : http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1084/g104/v72428/f1/full/update.zip

B589 Single Sim : http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1084/g104/v72431/f1/full/update.zip
[P8lite General] Azzureux:
Anyone tested it? is 1 Ian 2017 patch?
[P8lite General] crashpoum99:
It probably has the Jan patch. I am downloading now but it takes for ever! I will await someone to report if this works.
[P8lite General] speedster_no1:
yes it has 1 january patch :)
[P8lite General] crashpoum99:
Almost nearing halfway to downloading the file. Have you tested this version?
[P8lite General] speedster_no1:
everything works fine :)
[P8lite General] crashpoum99:
Download done. Will install later today and report back :) . One question though, is it really worth upgrading from B586 to this?
[P8lite General] Vika__:
Is there any ui changes?
[P8lite General] speedster_no1:
nope
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
Only security update, I can confirm that. Even changelog says that. If you care about Google security patches, then it's worth updating. If not - don't waste your time.
[P8lite General] Azzureux:
I searched about it, the content of the security is all marked as critical.

So because of it, ill update my rom.
[P8lite General] crashpoum99:
Updating now. I've noticed that the update numbers go +2 in every new update (B586+2=B588). The next update will be EMUI 4.1? I've seen on the builds that 4.1 is B890+. Anyone know anything regarding this?
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
Well, Vodafone's EMUI 4.1 is marked as a B890, so... :d

Probably our non-branded will have a different number code, but in fact we don't know when it's gonna be released.
[P8lite General] crashpoum99:
Taking into consideration that B586 came in December and B588 in January, i am confident that when (if) B890 comes, it will be in February. Although i tried EMUI 4.1 on one of those custom roms, it isn't something really special. Just one step closer to nougat i guess :p (if that comes to our phone too :D)
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
Don't delude yourself - official Nougat (EMUI 5.0) won't come.
[P8lite General] Azzureux:
I dont think B890 is really a P8 Lite rom. I belife that its a rom from another Huawei phone ported in P8 Lite, branded as Vodafone to make ppl belive its for P8 Lite.

Personaly I dont belive we gonna get 4.1 emui.
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
Why you think like that? B890 was officially released by Vodafone through OTA...
[P8lite General] crashpoum99:
There are many custom roms based on EMUI 4.1 for the P8 Lite. Even if what you say [MENTION=5483020]Azzureux[/MENTION] is true, 4.1 can work with the phone and will most likely will. From what i've read we will not get EMUI 5.0 but we will get EMUI 4.1 that will make use of some "ported back features" from EMUI 5.0. I don't know what that exactly means, but i guess we are gonna have to wait and see.
[P8lite General] spirto82:
Cannot install TWRP after thge update. Any help.? Only once I finally got to install TWRP and entered the recovery but after reboot, there was no custom recovery, only the stock one ....
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
Because it's stock Rom and it includes stock recovery, which is overwrited on the custom one.
[P8lite General] spirto82:
Solution (worked for me) - in case someone has the same problem: I extracted the stock recovery of B584 and flashed it, then flashed Xepeleato's version of TWRP and worked.
[P8lite General] allrightlite:
Thanks, but the download speed is very slow. Everybody will have this ;)

Edit: It's different. Sometimes is fast. They should better roll out it over the air without this big size.

Ok, have it. Works well. But why so fast an security update, huawei? That's amazing. Crazy, but why not? :) Huawei can, really can't beleave this. I'm dreaming, right? ;)
[P8lite General] spirto82:
Is anyone else having problems with the stock camera app while running the latest build?

While being on landscape mode, I got this...
[P8lite General] allrightlite:
No, just working normal. But my phone doesn't have any modifications. 100% stock :D
[P8lite General] chemstar:
Does anyone have root on this image?

Which supersu has to be used for?
[P8lite General] amageek:
rooting b586 through stable SuperSu 2.76 was fail... stuck in bootloop... so tried rooting it with two zip method (the one mentioned on MEGA Thread), but flashed modified sysless zips and it was a successful.. so i think if you try with 2 zip method, it should work
[P8lite General] Knight65:
Only Systemless root working on the stock rom :) I'm on the (non modified) latest 2.79 version
[P8lite General] amageek:
Before b580, non system less root also worked..
[P8lite General] Knight65:
I've tried on B564 as system mode and the phone get bootlooped :(
[P8lite General] amageek:
Ohhh... I remember, I flashed supersu 2.76 and then changed it to system app...
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
Quick question: my friend wonders if it's possible to install this ROM through TWRP cherry as a zip?
[P8lite General] RizwanH20:
It's possible just flash the zip without extracting anything .......

Just wipe everything except sd and remember you will lose TWRP
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
Even if it's C150, not C432?
[P8lite General] RizwanH20:
Yes but you will get Balong Bug
[P8lite General] allrightlite:
What's the balong bug?
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
It's messed up compilation number. Happens when wrong software is installed. Then OTA doesn't work.
[P8lite General] RizwanH20:
I warned you :good:
[P8lite General] Gwozdem:
No, don't worry, I haven't done that. My friend decided to push it through adb ;)
[P8lite General] Vika__:
Has anyone noticed huge google services battery drain on this version? I clean installed B588 few days ago and google services are draining 30% of battery consumption
[P8lite General] RizwanH20:
Just disable location or set it to GPS only i mean device only mode
[P8lite General] Vika__:
Already done that. Doesn't affect
[P8lite General] spirto82:
I would suggest a factory reset. I had such problems in the past and in some cases it would fix the battery drain problem.
[P8lite General] Vika__:
Problems started after factory reset.. And i found solution to it aftef half hour googling. One single emoji on my wa username caused backup issues what made google play services draining batterh
[P8lite General] ratoiu2001:
I have a P8 lite ALE-L21 debranded, originally from Vodafone RO, and i tried this version. For me was a battery drain ROM due to the problems with NFC. It shows as its disabled but eats 1/4 of battery. So i returned to B584. http://imgur.com/a/8jknk

There's no fix to unlock bootloader problems

Return to stock or use AOSP 5.0.2 with locked bootloader.
[Zenfone 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] article15:
how can i use AOSP without unlock bootloader?
[Zenfone 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leonardohenrique10:
AOSP doesn't requires changes in kernel

Since we have a kernel made from ASUS for 4.3, 4.4 and 5.0, any AOSP ROM from these Android version will work with stock kernel and locked bootloader.

thnx for your replies, for the last thing which i only know install custom roms from twrp or cwm,

can i install ASOP from orginal recovery with locked bootloader?

thnx agaın
[Zenfone 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leonardohenrique10:
You can install AOSP from fastboot, since it's an img file. But you have to unlock bootloader to install GApps via TWRP.

After flash all you need, you can flash stock recovery back and lock the bootloader.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] TXRangerXDA:
I unlocked my bootloader, installed twrp and several roms to try them out, then decided to go back to stock. Currently have OOS 3.5.4 installed with stock recovery (that came with the toolkit). However, whenever I try to lock the booltloader again, the phone won't boot up. It will bootloop, or just stay off with the led glowing white. I tried to sideload the stock ROM from OnePlus, but it fails after about 45% completion. I tried both 3.5.3 and 3.5.4 and both fail after about 45%. The only way to get the phone to boot again is by unlocking the bootloader again, then it boots just fine. Tried unlocking with the toolkit as well as fastboot oem lock. Both give me the prompt on the phone, then wipe the phone and go into the bootloop.

Any suggestions on how to re-lock the bootloader? I want to be able to get the OTA update, which I think will fail with an unlocked bootloader. Note, I have also tried loading the Nougat update from settings - system update - local upgade (both full and update) and they also fail to load shortly after booting to recovery.

Thanks,

TR
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] m0d hipp¥:
Instead of using the toolkit, try just doing it manually.

fastboot oem lock IS the correct way to lock the bootloader.

If you're running into all those issues, try to reflash the stock rom from the official site. OR try this

NOTE: This WILL wipe everything on your phone so make a backup first!

First Unlock booloader​

1. On your phone go into Developer screen (Settings --> Developer Options)

If you don't have this go back to Settings --> About Device. Tap "Build number" 7-10 times to unlok developer options

2. In Developer Options turn on "USB Debugging" and "OEM Unlock"

3. Open ADB in command prompt and go to the directory where ADB is.

Type adb reboot bootloader

4. Once your device is in fastboot mode, type in fastboot devices to make sure your device is listed

5. Type in fastboot oem unlock to unlock your device bootloader

You can check to make sure it was properly unlocked by typing in fastboot oem device-info.

6. Reboot into your system

Files we need​

7. Download the following files:

TWRP - https://build.nethunter.com/test-builds/twrp/oneplus/twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3t.img

No-verity-opt-encrypt - https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip

Magisk - http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk

Phh-Superuser - https://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3988488&d=1483407725

Latest Stable Nougat Rom - http://otafsc.h2os.com/patch/amazon...s3TOxygen_28_OTA_035_all_1612310259_2dc0c.zip

8. Copy all the files to your phone (keep the original on your pc just in case)

9. Load back up to fastboot mode

In ADB type adb reboot bootloader

10. Flash twrp img we downloaded above by typing

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3t.img

11. After this reboot into the system

Install all of our downloaded files through TWRP​

12. Now boot into recovery by issuing the following ADB command

adb reboot recovery (you should go into TWRP)

13. Once you're in twrp flash the "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip" file OR you can format the data partition to f2fs to prevent the dm-verity error.

14. Now install the stock stable nougat rom we downloaded above

15. Do a factory system wipe / cache & dalvik

16. Install magisk through TWRP

17. Wipe cache/dalvik

18. Install phh SuperUser

19. Now reboot into the system normally.

NOTE: This *COULD* take a while since you did a clean install of nougat so just be patient and you should be good to go after this.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] TXRangerXDA:
Thanks for the reply.

I did do fastboot oem lock, and it results in an unbootable system. fastboot oem unlock makes it bootable again. Not sure why. Also, whenever I do adb sideload <any_rom> it fails after about 45%. Not sure what's happening. Your instructions would get me to Nougat with TWRP and an unlocked bootloader, which may be what I end up doing, but I was trying to get back to fully stock, and locked again, so that OTA's will work properly. If nothing else works, I will go the route you suggest above.

Thanks again!
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] m0d hipp¥:
I just figured I'd try to get you to a working system/phone. After you get all that working you can probably lock your bootloader back to default. Now, I'm not 100% sure, but I believe that if you have a custom recovery you will need to restore that to stock as well before setting the bootloader back to locked.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] sidearale66:
I also have the same problem, after the bootloader lock the phone does not start.

I tried with all the possible procedures, also even the rom flash in local and sideload it does not work, It comes to 45% and then fails.

we will highlight the problem, so everyone will know and maybe there is a solution
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] pitrus-:
But of course, you can't relock phone with a non standard recovery. Replace TWRP with the ROMs real recovery and relock will work again.

You can a unbick tutorial. It worked for my OnePlus 3T. Just search up How to unbrick (whatever OnePlus device you have) on Google. Then follow all the instructions carefully. If you need help with it I could try to do a remote session with you. Edit: It will erase all data and you will boot with oos 3.5.3 ( I also had the same issue as you. But I couldn't install any zip with stock recovery or adb side load.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] enokack:
Haven't seen nothing on the fórum about this particular subject, locking the bootloader seems a problem in this phone
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] pitrus-:
Only if you have modified the phone in some way or another (like rooting and installing twrp) before trying to re-lock.

If you keep it stock, you should be able to re-lock. Or else, just use the Qualcomm restore method to re-lock.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] TOMASITO95:

OK what i did was when the phone was starting and vibrating I push the power bottom and volume down bottom at the same time ,then i connected the phone to the PC,from the panel in the phone there are 3 categories to erase everything on the phone I did it all(1,2,3) and then I put the phone in ADB mode from the control panel in the phone,After that I flash via fastboot the original .zip from one plus for the version 4.0.3 (1.4 GB) ,when it finished I restarted and the phone started normal again,I hope this help someone alse,I was so desesperated:silly:.

[Security Discussion] xeCloud:
I came across this video recently, on Youtube:

Title: Short Film: Find my Phone - Subtitled by Anthony van der Meer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpN9NzO4Mo8

At about 2:38 minutes into the video. He talks about how he install the anti-theft app as a system app which doesn't allow resetting the phone to remove the app.

So I was thinking. As a safety precaution, because I have everything in my phone and don't want it to fall into the wrong hands. If I would to install any anti-theft app as a system app using apps like Lucky Patcher. Then if the thief decided to do a factory reset on my phone. Will it remove the anti-theft app and will I still be able to have full control over my phone?
[Security Discussion] optimumpro:
If you can install an app in system, it could be deleted the same way. You probably have recovery too, which means the system partition could be completely wiped and new rom installed. But even if your bootloader is locked and there is no root, a thief can simply flash OEM firmware, which will wipe all partitions including system.

The video and the app in there do not provide any security against someone who knows what he/she is doing. Instead of installing stupid apps that expose your phone to the internet, you could simply write down your phone's IMEI, which in most cases cannot be changed even if you wipe both system and data. Then, you can ask for police and your carrier help: they would be able to locate the phone regardless of a rom or simcard...
[Security Discussion] xeCloud:
Let's assume the thief that stole my phone doesn't know how to do a complete wipe just like the one in the video. At best. He did a factory reset on my phone and start to use it as he's own or sell it away immediately. So does the anti-theft app still works?
[Security Discussion] nutpants:
That would depend if the thief has a data plan or connects to Wi-Fi regularly.

Most find my device apps work from internet connections and gps.

And most thieves know that .

The other ones pull the battery until it's sold or the smart ones sell the parts.

But yes if you get lucky enough to find a thief who steals your phone

And can't use Google but still wants to connect your device to the internet

There is a chance you might catch him and get your phone back.
