1. Download firmware finder from playstore

2. Go to firmware finder setting and turn-on update via OTA

3. It will download a plugin, install it

4. Search for the firmware you want to install in firmware finder click send to OTA

4. Now go to wifi

5. Long press on the wifi you are connected to

6. Choose modify network

7. Show advance setting

8. Re-enter the password

9. Choose manual proxy

10. Proxy hostname: localhost

11. Port: 8080

12. Save and connect

13. Go to updater and you will see the update

Btw: At first I failed to install B560 because I was at B190. I tried to update to B200 first then I successfully updated to B560.

Note: search for the B560 which is about 2.2GB. if you search and didnt find it. Manipulate some settings in Firmware finder and it will show.

Ziro007, how is the battery after the update.?

Thank you
[Mate 8 General] ziro007:
Battery usage is great. No difference than the previous version. Still solid and powerful. Easily can last more than one day with excessive usage.

You are quite welcome

When I tried to re contact my WiFi... It's give me three options

1... Proxy

2.... Port

3.... Bypass Proxy... What should I do with 3... Proxy is localhost... and port is 8080... But what is bypass proxy code or name... Please help me.....
[Mate 8 General] ziro007:
Do nothing with bypass proxy. Just keep it as it is or keep it empty.
[Mate 8 General] Bartimaeus11:
Hai, just press connect after you put name and proxy number and it will connect like ussual.
[Mate 8 General] Dany_21:
I had the same problem and I solve it by disconnecting​ wifi then open it's modify option and type the proxy and port then enter the password in this case connect button will be available to press and connect .. good luck ?

I had b200 also and I updated to b560 by FF the file with size 2.23gb via updater app and it is very smooth and stable .. I recommend it
[Mate 8 General] saeedbg:
in FF which version b200 should install? its two file in ff 892MB and 1400MB
[Mate 8 General] p51d007:
Just to see what would happen, mine, L29C185B321...

I didn't want to install it, but wanted to see if it would download.

FF, showing the 2.3gb 560 rom. Click on download, the download button is there, click on download, click on continue

the screen goes black, comes back to the list, but blank until you tap on check for firmware update.

If you turn off the "use new firmware base" option, then the only files that show up are 321 and lower, full, not OTA.
[Mate 8 General] iamSHANTO:
Almost download it 81%... Thanks for your advice... It's worth it
[Mate 8 General] p51d007:
The FullOTA-MF of L29c185B560, dated 07-01-2017, 1.87GB will download using FF

The FullOTA-MF-PV of L29C185B560 dated 05-01-2017, 2.231GB will NOT download using FF.

When you click download, then the pop up box, the screen turns white, then black, then goes back

to the list, without anything on the list.

(L29C185B321, Used in the USA, purchased from Amazon. Had L29C185B180 until a couple weeks ago)

SHANT001 & Dany_21,

Can you please tell me how is the battery life of the most 7 on mate 8?

I read so many things that an confused whether to upgrade it or not from the FF.

Please advice

Thank you
[Mate 8 General] Bartimaeus11:
Rom c185b320 and c185b321 will not get ota nougat soon, if you really want to upgrade to nougat then you need to rollback to c185b200 and choose region south africa, then find the full update via ff and update 2.23gb should appear. This is what i did and work like a charm.
[Mate 8 General] iamSHANTO:
Battery life is gd... Just using it for 1 day.. . There is not much I can tell you right now.. . But to be honest it's gd.. I think day by day The OS will work on it for better... I hope you understand that...

---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 AM ----------

Battery life is pretty much gd for me though...
[Mate 8 General] p51d007:
Yeah, it's "no big deal" to me if I don't get nogat soon. 321 is VERY stable for me, and there really isn't anything that I've found yet, that 7 offers to make it worth my while to screw around with downgrading just to get it. Unless I can just download a rom via update or FF, power off, hold +/- pwr and let it roll it back...I'll just stick with 6/emui 4.1 for now.

Now, if we get snowed in for 2-3 days and I'm bored out of my skull, I might play whack-a-mole to update it. :p:silly:
[Mate 8 General] Bartimaeus11:
Well, good for you buddy. Unfortunately i dont have a real good patience like you, my hands so itchy to try nougat :laugh:;)
[Mate 8 General] Dany_21:
Battery is good .. it's like b321 and b200 or even better but i am not sure of that yet i am still testing it but at least i guarantee that its not less than the previous versions in addition to its performance that is surely better .. go on man you won't lose any thing

Hi there

The option to install over OTA has gone... In the latest Firmware Finder update...

How should I go about installing B563? On NXT-L29C636B193....

Thanks
[Mate 8 General] p51d007:
Maybe it was just me, but I gave up on FF. The default update app on the phone got me the update.
[Mate 8 General] tatuk:
Hello,

I got this version through System Update right after I upgraded my c185b190 to c185b320...

Are you sure you need ff?

I have c185b560 now and pretty happy with that.

The only bad thing is the battery drain is a bit more...

This is my path to EMUI :

c185b190 -> (dload) c185b320 -> (system update) c185b560

I didn't use ff
[Mate 8 General] A.lemane:

[Mate 8 General] Apad121:
Hello there

Did you enable oem unlock in the developer settings before this?

I heard there was a risk of you don't press it as the install may fail? But I don't want to in case I lose my warranty... Or I am unable to use android pay...

Thanks
[Mate 8 General] A.lemane:
this is what i downloaded

cheked both hashs they r the same as the ones my phone downloaded & installed total size 2.26 GB
[Mate 8 General] ziro007:
Yes. OEM update was enabled. I didn't notice though just now I checked and its On.

Even if update failed. Nothing will happen to your phone it won't brick. It will restart and boot normally as nothing happened.
[Mate 8 General] Apad121:
Hi there

Thanks for replying...

I don't really want to enable Oem unlock as I want to still be able to use Android Pay... I fear I may lose that ability as it sounds like OEM unlock unlocks the bootloader...

I really want to make the leap from NXT-L29C636B193 to 563...

I think I'll have to update to B211 first...

I am really worried about bricking the phone...

I may use Firmware Finder and do it when I am sure it will not brick my phone...

Also check this out... Are you able to do a factory reset once you update to Android Nougat?

I tried to download the B580 for my L29C185 .... I download it from firmware finder .. the OTA 445 MB file ...by using the WiFi method ... But when it tried to install by itself ... it's filed ... But why ???
[Mate 8 General] Apad121:
Hello there

I think you will have to use Full OTA in order to upgrade several versions...

If that doesn't work try updating to B200 or higher first... Then afterwards try upgrading to B580...

Also have you enabled OEM Unlock? I don't think you have to but I'm just curious...
[Mate 8 General] iamSHANTO:
I tried to download the full file but it didn't work ... when I tried to install it it's giving me this ... But why ...

Hi all,

I've started a project to document my porting efforts and what I have learned while porting the SM-T285.

https://github.com/jedld/android_internals_handbook/blob/master/README.md

It is still a work in progress but it is something that I will complete over time.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Wagmans:
OK, so I flashed TWRP and now I have sort of a halfway bricked x829- I can load TWRP and Fastboot, that's it. I can't adb sideload anything because I get a "cannot read" error. I also can't Fastboot flash anything because all the ROMs I can find are zip files, and not .img files. What am I doing wrong?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Horsebeatsbishop:
ok why do you even want to flash the rom with adb/fastboot?

even if you forgot to cp the rom onto the sdcard - just flash with twrp from a stick - OTG works fine
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Wagmans:
OTG not working for me either. I have a USB C to standard USB adapter and it doesn't see any flash drives (I can see the drive being accessed- the light flashes, but doesn't mount). Do I need a USB OTG C Y adapter? I'm a bit lost why I can't just adb sideload.

Someone explain it to me like I'm a child. Obviously I'm doing something wrong and I'm missing something.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Horsebeatsbishop:
ok sounds like a toughie - never had a problem with OTG (neither with fat32 nor ntfs both works (twpr 3.0.2.1 myself) )

since i'm just a beginner myself i can only give you ideas where i would look:

-do you even see your device in adb service?

-enabled usb-debug?

-current usb driver?

-current adb version?

-correct adb version (32/64b)?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Wagmans:
I flashed TWRP properly- but when I put it into recovery I get half a corrupted screen- after the screen goes off if I press the power button I can access TWRP.

I tried flashing multiple flash drives in different formats- yes, I can see the drive LEDs flash after I insert it, but when I try to mount it says "0" space for all drives.

So, I assume everything is working properly because adb can see the device in sideload mode (Win 10 device mgr shows it as a USB device, when in TWRP (no sideload mode) it sees it as ADB device- but when I try to run ADB it doesn't show any devices):

List of devices attached

17963e29 sideload

No devices listed when sideload in TWRP is off.

I should be able to sideload something, but I get:

loading: 'le_x2_x820-5.9.020S.zip'

* cannot read 'le_x2_x820-5.9.020S.zip' *

Every time- every file.

Bricked?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] A.N.Droid:
are you using the official twrp ?

you should... https://twrp.me/devices/leecolemax2.html

or use multirom.

you can also transfer the rom first using mtp (in twrp).and flash afterwards.

FlashTools64_20161125.zip

I figured it out. I had to download FlashTools64 from Asus in order to sideload the file without the "cannot read" error. Well, that took me all morning.

This should be posted in the TWRP sticky.

I'm sideloading a rom right now. Let's see what happens...
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Horsebeatsbishop:
looks like the standard 15 sec adb installer to me... seems u had the wrong version
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Wagmans:
I don't know- I dowloaded it right from the link in the TWRP thread.

Anyways. now when I'm sideloading a ROM it times out at 46% every time (TWRP stops sideload mode). Any ideas?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Supertacomonkeyexplosion:
I had sort of the same problem, your not encrypted are you?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Wagmans:
Nope. Unless I can sideload a ROM I'm stuck because TWRP won't mount a flash drive for me.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] A.N.Droid:
why dont you transfer the zip first with mtp?

Gesendet von meinem LEX820 mit Tapatalk
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Supertacomonkeyexplosion:
You can't boot the OS at all ?

I flashed twrp, couldn't backup,side load or read any OTG. I ended up booting back into my stock OS, loosing twrp, putting teamspain cm13 on, reflashing twrp from fastboot then immediately booting into twrp and flashing CM zip.

Mine was encryption problem though, cm let me decrypt and twrp started working right
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Wagmans:
Nope. Just TWRP, that's it. As for MTP it doesn't even show up- just as a Android ADB Device in the drivers when in TWRP, and as a USB Device in TWRP Sideload mode. Remember, I'm stuck in either TWRP or Fastboot mode.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] A.N.Droid:
you have strange issues. are you sure you installed the right twrp version for your device? a link would help.

about adb:

i'm using universal ADB drivers and it just works.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Supertacomonkeyexplosion:
Strange that you lost your OS just flashing a recovery image, I've never seen that before. My last suggestion would be to fastboot flash a earlier version of TWRP.

Thanks for all the help guys. Now running Chinese .20s ROM. Took long enough.lol
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Supertacomonkeyexplosion:
Glad you figured it out.

Your running Chinese 20s on x829?

Lots of people will be interested to know how it runs..... Fingerprint? Language? Band 20? VoLTE?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Wagmans:
Been playing with it a bit:

Shows as X820 with 64GB

Fingerprint still doesn't work for me

Google Voice doesn't work- at least I haven't figured it out (Doesn't recognize "OK Google"- I have to go into the app by hand).

Same problem- no VoLTE on AT&T here in US (didn't think it would work- unsupported phone). On Band 2 with LTE (cycled it- was on band 17 before). Haven't checked the other bands yet.

Lots of bloatware. That I can deal with. If I can't get Google voice recognition working properly I'll probably go to a custom ROM.

jOdin3

hey all,

this is the first non-nexus phone i've used, and I am excited about flashing the U firmware to get a clean stock experience on my g930v. I was wondering what files i should input in jOdin under the PDA/Bootloader/CSC/Phone fields after I extract the zip file SM-G930U? I have searched tried to watch some insufferable youtube videos on the matter have had no luck finding an answer. Also since I'm asking, is it possible to flash this firmware with jOdin3, sorry for the newbie questions, didn't know where else to go.

Thanks in advance to any helpful replies.

Solved the above, no need for replies.

Next though is when I try and flash using Jodin3 the pit file is acquired, the phone reboots and then it stays disconnected and I am unable to start the process after the phone reboots. Any suggestions?

Solved the above by using heimdall to extract pit.

I am close to giving up and flashing anything via jOdin3 I have tried pretty much everything to flash new firmware with no success, latest error is that there is a corrupt file, need to use Odin file...

HAS ANYONE had success flashing a Verizon S7 on macOS? if so please tell me where to look otherwise going to sell this for an 930F version.

Most of my phone calls on this device have been pretty bad.

Most people tell me to turn off handsfree or "Hey! Talk louder!".

I phoned myself on a friend's phone and I herd my voice quite clear and whatsapp audios and recordings work perfectly.

Also when in call plugging in a headset and using the external microphone instantly fixes all problems.

I've made sure I'm not covering any microphone when holding the phone (only one next to charger port right?).

I'm really confused also because I've used 5.1.1 to 7.0 and this problem has persisted indicating it's hardware related.
[Galaxy S6 Active] anneoneamouse:
Try shining a bright light in the hole, look with a magnifying glass. Do you see any junk in there? You ought to be able to see a mesh screen (probably dusty / covered in fuzz). AoN
[Galaxy S6 Active] H2met:
Put the phone in safe mode and check how the microphone works when you call. If you hear perfectly then it's likely to be a problem in the installed applications that have access to the microphone. Need to understand which application creates a microphone problem?

Did you install the same applications after upgrading to android 7 beta that you installed on android 6.01?

Rather yes, since I also did this, but it turned out that some program interferes with the microphone. I had to reconsider the installed applications and to cancel the permissions to access the microphone.

At me the given problem has disappeared ...
[Galaxy S6 Active] E-Chan:
I don't think it's dust in the mcrophone since this happens since day one

I'll give this a shot tomorrow! I don't have many apps but I do have some indispensable that may have interfered with the microphone.

I'll report when I have someone I can try this with. Thanks for the tip!
