[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
Just use FF and transfer via proxy to update app.. and download Full Update!

Also be aware that you send the FF Firmware with two .zip, the one with 3 files dont work...

After that move the 2 Files from HwOUC file to sd card and use the dload method to update..Begin with update.zip and then repeat with the second file..

Works as well, same as charles...

This works also from b380

---------- Post added at 11:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------

A even better Explanation without FF for B 380
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
From B380 (installed from B131+Charles),

I tried FF with proxy, using the 2 files update, then system full update, verification eventually failed.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
Of course it fails, because.its not the officail OTA way to update..after this message move the files and use the dload method to install..

If this also fails please read my further post, where i quoted another user and download the zip files from the given links and use the dload method
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
Why "Of course it fails", i did exactly as you told...

see the quote in previous post, which was your answer to "how to update from B380 to B381".

Anyway, i may try charles method later, but i would like to avoid restoring B131 etc...

Edit : i read your original answer again, better... and realized I had only read half your post actually...

(no more xda at work :))
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
Please dont restore...

Just try.this:

Hope this helps you and sorry if my previous mentioned.method didnt work for you
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
Ok, thanks, and NP :)

I'll try later, for now I'm at work, don't tell my boss :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
It worked, using the 2 files i got in FF and dload method. From B380 to B381.

Thanks :svetius:

Hi [MENTION=3064479]pix106[/MENTION]

By the dload method, have you unzipped the both files first of all?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
I flashed 2 times, first update.app from update.zip, then the other data zip.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
Yes this is correct, iam glad that it worked for you because for me it worked :)

Using the dload method: be aware that after unzipping the zip file, you have to move the files from the unzipped folder to the dload folder, if you dont do.this the dload method by using the dialer code to install from sd cant find the files:)

The bug when you leave flight mode (that automatically turns on the bluethooth even if it was shut down when you enter flight mode) it's still here...
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
I never experienced this... When leaving flight mode, BT is not enabled if it wasn't enabled before.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Ci@cKi:
That's strange, i've noticed the bug and shared in honor 8 italian's community on fb and someone confirm that it happens to them too...
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] thedark1979:
Thank you , I flashed two update B381 zip files via twrp then I flased SuperSU 2.79 EMUI5 and twrp3.1.0-2 . everything work 100%. Now I on B381 as how i setting about ( my version updated also )
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
Imho, you can check if it still happens after a factory reset. And it may not :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Ci@cKi:
That's what i hope, even if i did it between 360 380 the bug was still there...
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
B360 to B380 may be incomplete (ie if B360 version is still displayed after installing B380).

Imho you shiuld use the rollback package to be able to downgrade to B131, then upgrade to B380 or B381 either with Charles method or dload method, both have been reported successful here.

You'll have a fresh install, and so a good test.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] sysak:
And thank you in return. Flashed the update_data_full_hw_eu.zip with dload method and now my fw version is b381 too, matching the security patch and kernel build.

BTW the update.app file in this package is only 16mb so doubt it's doing much more than changing the fw number. ;)

---------- Post added at 01:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 AM ----------

It woud if you flash full fw i think, not if you flash an ota package.

It will remove root and twrp though.

Could you backup a copy of your boot.img and post it here. I need a copy of the stock one and i'm unable to extract it on my mac.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] sTefIx420:
Mby we can install the small file from b381 someone test that please
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] robalm:
I will test b368 with charles when i get home in a few h.

Be back with result (if no one else test first)

But i do not think the 2gb will work for upgrade b131 - b386.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
No need to test it, because we have to wait for the version with two update zips.

This update contains 3 files. So don't waste your time we have to wait, the same procedure as for b381, but you can do what you want to, and community still profits from your test, and so thx in advance

BTW.. Huawei tries to improve with updates for security purposes. It would be great if they could release also kernel source
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] sysak:
Yep, I can confirm this. Tried to flash both update.zip files available on hwmt.ru via TWRP and they failed, just like the first release of the B381 firmware.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Alvichone:
Not, first update.zip and then update_full_hw_eu.zip

Edit: ok, with dload method that is the order (updated yestarday from 380 to 381). Using twrp the order of the zips seems to be different.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Psy87:
Just to be clear:

I'm currently on b380, rooted, twrp 3.1.0-3.

For updating to B381 I just need to download "update.zip" and "update_data_full_hw_eu.zip" and flash both via TWRP?

Followed by flashing TWRP (and optional SuperSU or Magisk) again.

FRD-L19C432B380

Edit: Worked as expected :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] lippol:
will i lose my data if I flash 381 update.zip and update_hw... via TWRP(dload didnt work for me) or does it just upgrade system like an OTA?

I am tired of setting everything up again after every update (even though i have TitaniumBackup)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] cypher187:
Hi people. I just want to let you know, that I successfully updated from B380 to B381 via flash through TWRP. I downloaded the two zip package

2017.03.06 2,0363GB FullOTA-MF-PV

from with FF and just flashed them. First the update.zip then the update_full_FRD-L09_hw_eu.zip right behind. Wipe cache / dalvik then reboot. Everything fine...

BTW I got the L09C432

Edit: of course I forgot to flash TWRP and su again after that and I needed to flash TWRP again through fastboot and then root. Could have been easier to flash TWRP right after flashing the ROM zip etc. :silly:

[General Questions and Answers] wodnik_szuwarek:
Hello,

I am trying to install OTA update on Huawei MediaTab T1 701w but it fails for some reason. I tried HiSuit but it failed as well as factory reset.

I must mention that I rooted it few weeks earlier with KingRoot to get rid of some bloatware but then decided to unroot it later.

Could rooting trigger some safety feature? Are there any logs indicating what stopping update from completing?

Looks like i rushed with my earlier post. So, while looking for a solution I decided to flash original firmware downloaded from here

Once the file has been downloaded I extracted zip file and copied to root folder of SD card. From recovery I chose option to install update from SD card. Once this was completed I installed OTA update without any troubles.

I hope this will be helpful for anyone having similar issue to mine.

Hi all,

Am tearing my hair out trying to figure this one out! I've got:

Windows Media

Coreplayer

GSPlayer

(Flash, not sure if this is needed)

All installed, as I'd like to listen to a radio station stream that I work on/manage the internet stream/technical setup for.

However it just won't connect at all! I have managed to play another shoutcast stream, but still never managed to get this one working.

Can anyone advise on why this could be? The stream in question is:

http://mobile:user@arctic.thebmwz3.co.uk:8000/hartlepool-mp3

Which works fine on all other players on the PC, etc, but cannot seem to figure why its not working on my Kaiser.

Thoughts/things to try, etc please!!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] andyb2000:
Thanks for the tips, unfortunately since this is a small UK regional/community station that I operate, it isn't in any public listings, so cannot stream via pages or other links.

The bit i'm struggling with is why the kaiser won't stream the link, as its a fairly standard CBR mp3 streamed from icecast2 at 64kbps/22kHz and I cannot stream either over 3G or wlan when I'm at home, so that negates and proxy or anything like that with my cell provider, so it looks like I'm struggling with some form of incompatibility with my audio applications and the stream that I'm running.

Help! Don't suppose any kind souls out there can try my stream I posted and see if they can play it on their kaiser?

Thanks everyone for your input, its been driving me mad this!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Steve-C:
I tried the stream as posted, with .mp3 rather than -mp3, and without the mobile:user@ both as . and -

It couldn't even find the stream! Kept saying the file (etc, not typing the whole message) could not be found. Tried it on a couple of other streams for local radio I know of in South Wales, and it was fine. Couldn't seem to handle Radio 1 tho, but no loss there...

I have no clue about streams, so can't help with what might be wrong, but least this confirms that a Kaiser and WMP will run streaming internet radio. Maybe there is something on the config that a PPC couldn't handle? Does this stream work for you:

http://gmga.planetwideradio.com/RealWales
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] andyb2000:
Thanks Steve, thats what I was wondering. Yes your link works fine which confirms that the streaming to my WM kaiser is fine, its obviously how I'm handling my own stream.

Interesting that you've tried all the combinations that I did, and with no luck, and yes very strange it doesn't find the feed at all and errors with unknown url, etc, I'm wondering if its somehow because the stream runs on port 8000 instead of 80?

However, in pocket IE, you can get to http://arctic.thebmwz3.co.uk:8000/ which is the admin for my icecast2 server, so PIE does seem to accept the alternative port too.

I'm very confused! I'm going to post to the icecast2 forum to see if there are any answers, but anyone else can give me any pointers too??

Cheers!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] andyb2000:
Right,

Chatting to the Icecast streaming developers, they suspected the authentication being the problem.

So I disabled authentication and sure enough the stream connected immediately, so I suspect there is a bug in the internet/backend on the WM that doesn't interpret multiple colons correctly, as obviously I had two in the URL, one for the TCP port number to use, and one to separate the username/password.

So think thats the problem.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoMESnAround:
Hello all,

So I need some more information on how to manually restore text message backups to my new phone.

My Nexus 5X died recently and I didn't have a backup of the information on it. By putting it into the freezer I was able to boot it intermittently but was only able to recover a partial backup using adb restore. After untarring the backup, I found some sms and mms backups in the directory "apps/com.android.providers.telephony/d_f/" which I would like to move to the correct directory on my new phone (a Motorola G5 Plus). The files are titled like 000000_sms_backup (there are a few of them for sms and mms). There's also a "_manifest" directory under telephony. What is that?

I tried to adb push these to "/sdcard/Android/data" but that didn't work. It seems like the correct directory may be inaccessible in a non-rooted phone.

Is there a workaround? What are the correct file paths? I'd like to avoid rooting my phone if possible.

Those sms files are also in binary. Is there a way to convert them to plain text at the very least?

Many thanks for reading this and for any feedback.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floppes:
I am facing the same issue: my Nexus 5X suddenly won't turn on and I got a new one from Google. I have an ADB backup of all apps and I also found the file apps/com.android.providers.telephony/d_f/000000_sms_backup.

Did you find a way to restore its contents?

All I found so far was this post and the source code which creates the backup file. I'll look into the sources and try to figure out the file format.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floppes:
Solved it :o

The file is created by a DeflaterOutputStream and contains the SMS as JSON objects, so it can be easily decoded with a little Java tool. I wrote such a tool and you can find it in the attachment.

Usage:

java -jar sms_restore.jar 000000_sms_backup

Here's the full code:

package de.floppes.sms_restore;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.zip.InflaterInputStream;

public class SmsRestore
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
if (args.length != 1)
{
System.out.println("SMS Backup extractor 0.1");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("Usage: sms_restore <input_file>");

return;
}

File file = new File(args[0]);

if (!file.exists())
{
System.out.println(args[0] + " not found!");
return;
}

FileInputStream fileInputStream;
InputStreamReader fileReader;

try
{
fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
fileReader = new InputStreamReader(new InflaterInputStream(new FileInputStream(fileInputStream.getFD())));

char[] buffer = new char[(int)file.length()];

fileReader.read(buffer);

System.out.print(buffer);

fileReader.close();
fileInputStream.close();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println("Error reading file!");
e.printStackTrace();

File doesn't parse in it's entirety

Hey there [MENTION=4562297]floppes[/MENTION]

I wanted to mention something as your tool has recently become relevant for me! I see that it decodes the binary file and turns it into a readable .txt file which is great. I have noticed that in the text files, at the end, it becomes cut off as if all of the data was not completely parsed out. I noticed that the size of the text file is the exact same size as the binary file that is initially thrown to your .jar tool. Does your tool create a hard limit on the maximum file size of the output text file based on the size of the binary file? Is there a way to edit your code so that it can parse out all of the data that is stored/compressed within these binary files? Any information you can provide would be great! Thanks.
