[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] talvigi:
First of all thanks for this wonderful post, you did a great job.

Don't mind it but you have made a great post, without a great title/name, so i suggest you to modify the title of the post, these kind of posts are very helpful for people like me and others but most of the people out there use google to search help they don't know the XDA, so if you modify and give a better title to your thread it will be easily found by searchers.

Lastly what is the main difference of numbers after BLN-L21 i.e. mine is L21C185 on the about phone but the hidden info *#*#2846579#*#* and Veneer Information and version information says at Manufacturer Information BERLIN_L21_VN1 AP Version is L21C900B131_SYSTEM while the Parameter Version says C185, NOW what is my devices real name and which firmware should i be downloading for my device if i want to roll back to 6.0.1?

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] omair.anwer:
Hi, i understand if information is not easy to find it of little value suggest me a name and i will change it.

If you are on android 7 you need to first download the roll back package of the "version component version" showing in veneer info and flash it, then flash the same version android 6 latest package. Then use the firmware finder send to update method to get back to your real version either andoid 6 or android 7 as your prefer.

I have seen c185 is used used for middle east market.

"Manufacturer version" is your real device variant. (your need to download this to roll back with the roll back package if your are on android 7)

"version component version" is your current installed firmware Version.

Ideally they should be same but if firmware finder is used to install different variant firmware, to get to a newer android version or for some other reason than these both miss match.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] talvigi:
Well, I am sorry but you again jumbled a lot of things just in some lines which didn't help me.

For your thread i would suggest the name "Honor 6x L21 downgrading/going back to B130 or B131 or B120" whatever file version you used to go back to 6.0.1.

As i have said before, i am have an Honor 6x BLN-L21C185 which is now on B131 stage of update but i want to upgrade to B342, while Phonenix1024 on this https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71578919&postcount=134 thread suggested me to role back to B130 and then update to B342 via Firmware finder. What is your suggestion and what is your experience BTW.

I am sorry again if i was a little out spoken!

what is that file [MENTION=5251370]omair.anwer[/MENTION] , is it an upgrade or a downgrade, please name it! I mean you should write its name and version above the link, Thanks.

---------- Post added at 11:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

[MENTION=2964341]Tangra[/MENTION] , It has been suggested by some guys on this thread https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71578919&postcount=134 , that we should go back to B130 and do not update to B131 but install firmware finder and directly upgrade to B342. So it was your bad luck that you are facing this but as Omair said you can flash his file or just download the B130 for your device model and follow the dload instructions to give a new life to your device. God bless you.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] omair.anwer:
Well your question is more correct now.. So here is the simple answer.

No need to go back to 130 ...I also upgraded from 131. See my first post and update using firmware finder but using the method send to updater see the setting of firmware finder as you will need to do some proxy setting.

For the second file question as I explained in a reply to another member its a second part flash file to upgrade to android 7. Only if you upgraded using dload method.

The file is for bln-l21c185.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] omair.anwer:
[MENTION=5726421]talvigi[/MENTION] its a second part flash file you need to flash in order to get full functionality on android 7. This file is only needed if android 7 update is made using dload. This will also give your correct version in about and updater app. If update is made using firmware finder sent to updater method than this file is automatically downloaded and flashed in updating process. I got this file from the updater folder.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] talvigi:
Oh, no yaar, [MENTION=2624955]Omair.anwar[/MENTION] I have already formated my device this morning, because it was download the full update file send by firmware finder to my updater.

But i am still on B131, so according to you i should directly upgrade to B342 and i shouldn't go back to B130. BUT you said you had problems in B342 like no update options etc, may be this was just because you upgraded from B131?

[MENTION=2624955]Omair[/MENTION].anwar if you live near by me in Pak please answer me that in the firmware finder should i choose the FullOTA-MF-PV size 2.352GB? my number is zero three two double zero two six one double six zero. Thanks
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] omair.anwer:
I am not sure.. it should work fine if you Will use firmware finder with "installation via system update" and "view OTA updates" in setting.

If you want make sure, then after updater had downloaded 100% go to internal storage there will be a folder named something like OUC and see in its sub folders there should be two files one named update.zip and another named like "update data full".

I had the problem because I flashed different version firmware.

Hi ! i have one question

After RollBack package flashed can i flash directly BLN-L21C432B130 or i flash the BLN-L24 Before ?????

I have my answer i can't flash directly my french firmware ... :(

It's the brothel to return to Android 6.0 compared to nexus or samsung devices XD i like challenge ;)

Rollback Package For BLN-L21 ?????? : http://www.hihonor.com/fr/support/software-list/index.html (no tested because i have flashed the rollback package of BLN-L24 .... too late for me :( )
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Tangra:
Thank you for the link. I unzipped "update_data_full_BLN-L21_hw_meafnaf.zip" and dropped the content in dload folder on SD card. Flashed from Engineering mode menu and everything on the phone works correctly now.

I was trying to locate this file "update_data_full_BLN-L21_hw_meafnaf.zip" by myself with no success. i'm curious how did you find it and is there a link for this file somewhere on hicloud servers. I see that for EU version off the phone this file is available for direct download from there.

Anyways, you did amazing job and your post will help many people I guess. Thank you!

P.S. I noticed after I posted my remarks that you've got "update_data_full_BLN-L21_hw_meafnaf.zip" from your Updater App folder - great job and hopefully somebody will find the link for direct download from hicloud servers
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] omair.anwer:
Hi if you flashed Bln-l24 roll back and it worked than you can still flash bln-l24 android 6 package and after that use the firmware finder with correct settings to get back to bln-l21.

See pic attached for settings and read my very first post too.

I hope I understood your concern well.

Well try this as your updater app is working .. with setting as attached pic flash the 2.352GB package from firmware finder, make sure you do the proxy setting and send the firmware to updater and update using the updater.

This is the only solution I can think of without root.

Guys plse tell me it is correct r not. Iam just sending the b131 full ota update to device using firmware finder and after doing this i got the mm update to device is it correct and is it safe after that can i get mm plse anybody
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] talvigi:
Hay [MENTION=5251370]omair.anwer[/MENTION] : I have come to know that the official update to 7.0 and EMUI 5.0 has been released by Huawei for our Honor 6x, but I have already upgraded to B360 via FF and now I think I can't get official update. So to rollback to EMUI 4.1 I need a rollback package which I have tried by my own and downloaded two packages one from hihonor.com/fr/ and another with the name included Italy in it and both have failed on or before 6% by saying that update failed due to incompatibility with the current version. I am including some info of my device which I thought are the the same as Europe version of the 6x is but I think I'm wrong.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] omair.anwer:
I believe it is official update b360 no matter you updated with firmware finder, and once official update is installed you can not roll back without unlocking boot loader.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] talvigi:
Thanks, I have everything but radio is missing. That's way I thought I'll be able to get that fm radio in an official update. And I have come to know that they have released a B361 version in Europe.

See this I've just got this on my screen so took a screen shot.

BLL-L23 rollback and unwanted BetaClub app

Hi, I've tried this guide on my BLL-L23 device, using this file as rollback update: http://consumer.huawei.com/np/support/products/downloads/detail/gr5-2017-np.htm?id=94065

and flashed the main MM package from here: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=BLL-L23 (I've installed BLL-L23C605B100 through three-button method)

I don't know how did that worked, but my phone is running EMUI 4.1 right now and running fine, but it's showing a new app installed, called BetaClub. Also is showing a "LogService Tip" notification, and now my compilation number is BLL-L23C605B100-log (normally it wouldn't have that "-log" suffix).

It's possible to revert this? Or may I have to hide that notification and ignore that BetaClub App?

PS: I can still update through HiSuite using Huawei Updater, and my device is still being detected as "BLL-L23" (as usual)

Cheers :D

Update: after a successful update to B120, I've tried to update to B130 but now I can't.

I'll try to update to Nougat now, hope it works (my main reason for downgrading was for fixing Themes app).

Update 2: after another update to Nougat, that "BetaClub" app disappeared, I think because that B100 firmware is a beta.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] talvigi:
So guys what are the prerequisite settings for rollback package, my device is a BLN-L21C185 and I have downloaded a rollback package for it but it does not accept the rollback and give error at about 6 percent and says something like "software upgrade failed, due to incompatibility of version". Am I missing something somewhere in that process?

And so as the upgrade to B361 also fails with an error which I have included for the partial OTA update but I have also send the biggest file to updater and I also gave the same error.

It may please be noted that I couldn't take a screen shot of first attempt to upgrade but it was the same as it is for this small OTA update.

I did download the bigger version and I have it in my SD card should I try a 3 button combination way to upgrade, I want that FM radio now and want it to be something like official, the 100% downloaded file is here.

Is it essential to unlock bootloader to be able to downgrade, or is it just a theory I've made within.

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] mirzafaisal:
is it official update or by using update finder
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] talvigi:
It was by firmware finder and it didn't install on my BLN-L21C185 and said the device version doesn't match, while it's for BLN-L21 and mine is BLN-L21. Now I really don't know what the cause is for not accepting the update, indeed I have updated upto B360 with the FF and there was no problem at all. And I can't rollback too.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] mirzafaisal:
Yes still there is no way to roll back of our device so my advice is that plz wait for official release

[EDIT] Actually, this method does not work, since the link for finding the firmware isn't working. I suggest to use Firmware Finder

http://ministryofsolutions.com/2017/04/huawei-mate-9-lite-bll-l23-nougat-b342-update-emui-5latin-america.html

I followed this guide (method 2), but on "Custom Rom Version" you must put the firmware you need, and the appropiate URL for that firmware.

Use this link for finding that firmware:

[EDIT] URL actually not working, I suggest to use Firmware Finder

After that "equal", type for your device. On my case, it is BLL-L23

For "Custom Rom Version" use the code on the third column (the one that says "Полное название")

For "Custom Rom URL" copy the "upload" link, and remove [...] /full/update.zip

In example, if I want to install B342 firmware for my BLL-L23, I must use these ones:

Then, update through HiSuite

How to update through Hisuite¿
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
Must create a proxy through Huawei Updater, then configure HiSuite to use HU proxy (is on the link)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
Pancho, I have a BLL-L23 (Latin America) on C605B130; however, I cannot for the life of me upgrade to the latest firmware (which I believe is C605B342). The upgrade NEVER comes through OTA or HiSuite. Did you upgrade successfully, and do you have any problems with the software?

Also, how exactly did you upgrade? Can you guide me through the process? I'd be EXTREMELY grateful, my friend. :fingers-crossed:
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
Well, the link for finding the firmware is actually not working

[STRIKE]hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=[/STRIKE]

So I suggest you to use Firmware Finder (check for it on XDA). Basically the method consists on

1- Finding the firmware URL on the program

2- Setting a proxy to that URL (you can do it easily on Firmware Finder program)

3- Update through HiSuite

OR

1- The same as the previous step

2- Setting in your router the DNS that Firmware Finder provides to you when you ask for update to the server

3- Update through the update app on your phone.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS:

1- When searching for update files (step 1) you must flash EVERY OTA between your version and the version you want to reach OR

flash the version you want with the file that say "FULL/OTA" or something like that

(I recommend the last option).

2- When setting up the proxy (I'm not totally sure about this) you must use the URL for the

CHANGELOG

, not the one for the update.zip.

3- Before trying an update, make a backup of your important files and apps, because it may be necessary to clear data partition through recovery.

4- I strongly recommend you to

flash the stock recovery before updating

(in case you replaced it with TWRP or another one).

5- Be sure to check Firmware Finder page (on XDA) for further instructions on how to use it.

PS: I attached a screenshot with the classic "About Phone" screen, on my BLL-L23 with EMUI 5.0. It works flawlessly.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
Panchoso, much
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
Use the Windows program :fingers-crossed:
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
Seriously, that's all? Lol, you're a genius, Panchoso! I am VERY grateful for you! So, let me see what I can do tomorrow. Will you be available if I need help? Also, I am on Hangouts if you want to chat.

How do I download the Windows program?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
Check for Firmware Finder on XDA.

Oh, and if you get that authorization error, just try with another firmware (on Windows program, of course)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
What do you mean, my friend? You mean another build?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
If I'm not wrong, there are several links for Nougat on FF.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
So, indeed the Windows program is so much better than mobile, then... That helps a lot, Panchoso, I mean that. You're a life-saver.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
Well, nice to read that. I'm also updating my phone, I'm also downloading the latest OTA (B364).

Some last thing. It will take several hours for updating (depending on the size of the image), so be ready for waiting
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
Okay, I kind of expected that; is that because it takes awhile to download the firmware?

---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

I say that because you're the first person in an entire week who has lead me in the right direction, and I thought I was lost forever.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
Panchoso, what should I do next? Also, how should I check software status - or, does it even matter? I am not sure what proxy to use for checking software availability, but I just chose my model and then clicked "Search."
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
[MENTION=8242346]RedSkull23[/MENTION]

Check the last few posts - the exchange between Panchoso and I.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
I would suggest you to use the "Common Base" tab for searching for firmware. After finding the ROM you need, you must copy the URL for the changelog of the firmware (on "Changelog" chart).

Then, you need to start a proxy (with the proxy icon on the top, is like a cloud with a list over it)

- Paste the Changelog URL on "Firmware for install" section, then click "Set"

- Click on "Register for update"

- Set up the DNS with the instructions on the tab

PRO TIP: you can check if you successfully registered for the update with the last button on the tab.

After this, you can update through HiSuite.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
Panchoso, thank you very much, my friend ? I did try that, but the update won't come through the HiSuite? It just says, "You have the latest update installed."
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
Be sure that you set up proxy correctly, this is:

- Paste the

changelog URL

- Set up the DNS, and

try different methods for setting it up

. You can change your router's DNS, your computer DNS and/or HiSuite proxy (according to the instructions in the proxy setup at FF)

- Check that you registered successfully for update (with the button on proxy setup at FF)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
So, if DNS doesn't register through HiSuite, then what is the best way to do so on the computer? Or, could I change DNS on Android?

EDIT: It's asking me for two DNS addresses on Android: DNS 1 and DNS 2.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
You can:

- Check on Windows network config for setting up a custom DNS (google 'bout it)

- Check on your router's config, you should be able to change the DNS right there

The main idea is to route your connection to that specific DNS, and update through HiSuite
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] vince.lupe:
Okay, I tried so on Android also, but it's asking me for two DNS addresses.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Panchoso4D:
Set the primary DNS as the one linked to the update server

Set any DNS as the secondary (i.e. 8.8.4.4, Google's secondary DNS)

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 PM ----------

Oh! I've noticed that you can update the phone way so easy (af)!

You must do the proxy thing on Firmware Finder at Windows (setting the changelog URL and registering for update).

Then, set the DNS directly to Android's Wi-Fi settings (Settings > Wi-Fi > long press your Wi-Fi network > Modify network > Show advanced options > Set Firmware Finder proxy's DNS as the DNS 1)

Finally, you should be able to update through Updater app on your phone (Settings > Updater)

PS: I noticed about this when I downgraded and reupgraded my phone.

PS 2: and also I'm pretty sure that you can do the proxy thing directly through Firmware Finder app on Android
