Thnks buddy

But i search it and yes there was an FTF for e5663

It was 30.1.B.1.55 stated for E5663

I downloaded it and when i see it in flash tool

It was showing as E5603

Not E5663

E5603 is single sim

E5663 is dual sim

Should I go with this FTF

You can see next post with Images
[Sony Xperia M5] altmash mirza:
You can see this problem in the pictures i attached with this post

with the FTF provided on XDA For E5663

Is showing as E5603 in flash tool
[Sony Xperia M5] ih8redsn0w:
You can flash it if you want but you will hard brick your phone.

The reason it says E5603 is probably whoever posted it is an idiot and labelled it wrong.

Just go on flashtool and use xperifirm then select Xperia m5 then choose e5663 and there is a Hong Kong generic on lollipop 5.1

Thnks bro i will try your suggestion :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Lemonfur:
I have already ordered an honor 8 from US amazon, with a charger that has a US plug.

South Africa uses 220/230 volts AC 50HZ, 5 amp 2 prong with round pins.

I did some research and almost all modern chargers seem compatible with 220/230 volts. However I would just like to confirm that it will work with just a physical form adapter.

Also in the Q&A it said:

Question:

Brings turbo charger with it? Is it compatible with 220V of south american countries?

Answer:

The phone comes with a 9 V 2 A high voltage quick charger. It also supports 5 V 2 A chargers (for Indian markets). Make sure you buy an official Huawei 9 V 2 A charger; unofficial quick chargers will not work properly. If you need a quick charger, you can buy one from Huawei Vmall or official Huawei experience shops. We do not recommend using a 220 V charge on the phone. (NS)

Is there a reason why the seller is recommending not using a 220V charge? Or is it just to cover their ass?

I've been trying to look for a genuine Huawei usb c quick charger in South Africa to no avail... If anyone can also help me out there, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Looking forward to your responses.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Nyssa1104:
Not sure on the US chargers as I always use UK or European charger which work on 110 / 240 v, so if you had one of these it would not be a problem.

I should imagine the US also acts this way 110/240 volts and all you would need is a mains adapter as you stated.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicotinic:
After upgrading to Andriod N on the 6p, many of us have been plagued by the Bootloop of Death and/or random reboots. Some have tried RMAs, have purchased new devices or moved to backup devices. Huawei has claimed software is the culprit and Google has stated that it's the hardware. Personally I've tried a clean install of the ROM, Dirty flashing the ROM, clearing the caches, etc.

:(

Nothing has worked... Until now!

I'm days in without a single random reboot or Bootloop.

This advice is provided without warranty or any guarantee that it'll work for you but it may work.

I'm not a developer and I've not tried multiple devices.

Steps:

*Note I'm on the latest Pure Nexus build.

1. If you're currently stuck in a Bootloop, then leave your 6p to Bootloop until it actually starts or until the battery dies. If it starts skip to step 3.

2. If it Bootloops, then intervene occasionally by getting the device to boot into the bootloader (Hold down power and volume down). Once there, attempt to reboot recovery. It'll probably keep Bootlooping but occasionally the device will start up.

3. Once your 6p starts, download the ElementalX apk from the Google Play Store. Don't do anything else. I've only tried this app so it's the only one that I recommend for this "fix".

4. Download the ElementalX kernel through the ElementalX app and follow the prompts in order to install the kernel. Allow it to reboot. *You may be able to complete the following steps with the stock kernel.

5. Once your device has rebooted, open the ElementalX app and click the leaf icon in order to enable power saving. This will lower your CPU's freq, GPU's freq, and most importantly, it will disable the BIG CPU cluster.

After these steps were completed I haven't experienced any random rebooting​ or Bootloops. Yes, this ”fix" hobbles your device but it is still quite functional. I think that on Nougat the constant switching between the two processor clusters causes random restarts and Bootlooping​.

There may be an alternative that will allow you to disable the little CPU cluster instead and not lower the GPU performance. I've not tried any other methods yet.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhs39:
Multiple people have reported getting the boot loop of death while on Marshmallow. I think the idea that Nougat is causing the problem was discredited long ago, the fact that its a hardware issue with these phones is widely accepted and that the age of the phone is much more of a factor than the operating system you are running. Most of these phones are experiencing the boot loop of death shortly after the warranty expires, when the phone is 12-14 months old. Your phone is generating less heat since you ramped down the CPU which is likely why it isn't currently bootlooping.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicotinic:
Well...

You may be right but I didn't notice any Bootloops or random reboots until I upgraded to Nougat. After putting this "fix" in place my device still gets pretty warm under load but it doesn't exhibit random reboots or Bootloops... Heat didn't seem to be the issue since my phone would reboot into a Bootloop while just sitting on my desk at work with only background tasks running. Regardless, this workaround works for me and it may work for others.

HOW would one install APk from playstore if their phone can't even load up, aka bootloop of death ? You need to be more specific , like locked bootloader , unlock bootloader ..etc.... smh
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RyomaEchizen:
Once battery dies what i have to do? (my phone dies two hours ago when I was with a 3% of charge and its bootlooping over and over) Full charge? Another thing? :confused:

Note:

1)I'm on the latest Pure Nexus build, stock kernel, unlocked bootloader

2)When i connect to the charger one hour ago the phone shows battery charge mode but stills bootlooping. I'm waiting to battery dies
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicotinic:
Sorry that I wasn't more specific. My bootloader is unlocked and I'm rooted. Users may not need to be in order to get back the device's functionality.

It's a shot in the dark but if a user that is having the Bootlooping issue follows my steps, then they may get back up and running. I've yet to have another random reboot or a Bootloop since...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicotinic:
Since it's died, you'll need to power it on once it's charged for a while. When you power on and it starts Bootlooping, boot into the bootloader and follow my steps. If it Bootloops continuously, boot into the bootloader again and try to get into recovery. It will probably continue to Bootloop. That's what happened to me. I'd come back to it from time to time, boot to the bootloader, prompt it boot to recovery... over and over again. Eventually, it would fully boot up instead (not into recovery).

If it starts DON'T check messages or try to use your phone normally. Instead, follow the steps. Seriously. I made that mistake over and over again.

FYI: This process can take a looong time. Not days but sometimes it was hours until I figured my solution out. I don't know exactly how long it takes because I'd leave the phone Bootlooping and come back to it later in the day.

Many thanks!

Its work for my nexus 6p too

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haieb:
Thanks! Finally something that worked! The big cluster is indeed the problem. I had the porblem that the phone freezes and gets stuck in the bootloop when the battery is above 10-12%. I guess that the cpu disables the big cluster when you are underneath that threshhold(?).

One big problem I am still facing is that I can't reboot my phone and I have to make it discharge until I can boot it up again. Do you have have something that prevents that?

Big thanks again!

Still bootloops

I followed all the steps but my Nexus 6P still bootloops after crossing 10% charging. Is it possible for you to share your Kernel Manager settings screenshots please?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taco951:
I too began to experience the boot loop issue literally 8 days after my warranty expired which was 11 days ago today! Have tried flashing several factory images from MM to N and even a saved backup I made from day 1 of having the phone. This method of disabling the big cluster thru ExK has definitely been the furthest I have gotten. Me and my friend(da guy) did find out that in order for the phone to boot up at all, the battery has to be at approx. 6% or lower. In that time is when you must quickly download ExK and activate power saver mode. I just called Huawei support and they did absolutely nothing to help me in this manner. I really do hope that this lawsuit wins in our favor. Speaking of which, does anybody know where we can check for status of this current litigation?

Update: Ordered a new battery and installed it... still bootlooping. This is very frustrating as i have been forced to use my ancient Moto Droid X2 as my daily :(
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inneyeseakay:
I wonder if someone could compile a kernel that always disables the big cluster for those with bootloop problems. Then you could just flash the kernel and not have to try repeatedly to get the phone to boot long enough to install the app.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geraldolvn:
You need to leave it bootlooping until it stops bootloop and entry in the Android. It should start eventualy. Than you need to activate the Developer Options, and under the developer option activate debuger and unlock OEM ... After that you will be able to unlock the phone.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celahudini:
Guys how can I make the phone drain the battery to the point where it will boot?

I think it's below 20% right now, but I can't make it bootloop anymore unless I charge the battery.

Right now I see the google logo one time and then a red led blinks left of the front camera and the phone turns off. I can go to the bootloader and recovery but the phone refuses to boot.

I've got android O beta, but I never unlocked the bootloader so I can't flash the factory image.

Is there anything I can do or is the phone dead for good?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inneyeseakay:
Go to bootloader or recovery and let it sit there til it's completely dead.

Or if it's not dead... Try tossing it in the freezer for a few minutes... Mine will typically boot after a few minutes in the freezer.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celahudini:
Thx dude, that did the trick. Was able to boot up and turn on usb debugging and oem unlocking. Now I'll root it and follow the guide. Thx again :good:

edit: Was able to install twrp, and then as a earlier post suggested I installed pure nexus, it's gapps and vendor, and elemental kernel. When installing elemental kernel I chose the minimum value for big cluster but still couldn't get it to boot. In 30 tries I got it to boot once, but after a minute or two the touch screen stopped responding and then I got another reboot and back to bootlooping.

Freeze it again, boot, install EXKM and click the leaf as quickly as possible.

Hello! Could anyone possibly link this thread in Nexus 6P Subreddit, please?

There´s too many people there complaining about the bootloop and nobody seems to be aware of this workaround. They would be more than eager to try this fix. Much more feedback would be gained if this thread was visible there.

My 6P is already being serviced at Huawei so unfortunately i can not try this at the moment...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shemploo:
I'm having the same issue, BL unlocked, flashed various versions of stock images, constant boot loops between the unlocked warning screen and google logo.

Can't enter Recovery even, it just keeps looping. Going to let it die as per direction here.

I just checked warranty on consumer.huawei.com/us/support/warranty-query/index.htm and it's expired last month! 2017-06-05 in United States.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InViSeD:
Also have this issue, but for me all this started several weeks ago, when the phone just suddenly rebooted and bootlooped for no reason, I then wiped caches and it booted after several more reboots, I began suspecting a hardware issue. And recently, it just rebooted and denied to boot at all, just bootlooped all the time. Turned out it boots and works normally if battery is less then 8%, and starts to freeze and loop after charging to 12% and greater. I had the phone unlocked and rooted (Android 7.1.2) and I've managed to enter TWRP recovery, but was unable to restore from backup, as the phone just rebooted randomly during the restore process (all this at almost fully charged battery). I was able to flash stock factory images but it didn't help to boot it up, only the low battery helped. So I left it bootlooping all day, then it turned on and I was able to set it up and install ElementalX kernel and disable Big Cluster cores, then I was able to charge it fully and the phone is working normal now, but without 4 cores.

Minimizing cores frequency or disabling two of the Big Cluster cores didn't help.

Speaking shortly, disabling all of the Big Cluster cores resolves the issue, and the phone works like nothing happened, the only real problem for me now is that kernel's cores config is not applied early enough, to make the phone boot with charged battery, so I have to avoid now rebooting/turning off with battery > 8%. So now we need such kernel, that will not use Big Cluster cores at all.

PS My warranty expired 3-4 months ago.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shemploo:
Is it possible to disable those big cores while in fastboot?

I see that it's possible via ADB here - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20221680/android-how-to-force-cpu-core-offlineshut-down-cores
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rchtk:
There's no way to interact with such things through fastboot.

And anyway, once you get out of bootloader, a new kernel is loaded (either recovery or boot) which by default will have all cores enabled.

I've created a thread in General with recovery and boot images that only enables 1 core. You can have a try but 1 A53 core is damn slow :)

Up to now, 5 or 6 users tested (which is very low to draw conclusions)

2 succeeded to get back to recovery

1 for which the system goes much further but

0 managed to get system to boot (I haven't had time to investigate why system doesn't finalize)

Also the method mentioned in this thread (let it in boot loop or freezer etc..) doesn't work for me.

So damage seems to be varying from device to device and disabling core might not be a universal method. I can provide boot images with 4 cores (little cluster)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InViSeD:
Yes, please, have we have such images for latest stable version (Android 7.1.2)?

I forgot to mention, that draining battery didn't always help, it only helped once the bootloop drained DOWN to 8%, it often bootlooped again once you reboot it at the same 8% and drained the battery down to empty state not allowing to boot up at all, I then had to charge it to ~15% (approx. 10 minutes of charging), so that it will loop DOWN to that 8% and finally boot up. So, yes, the behavior is a bit random, but once it boots and Big Cluster is disabled it works fine. I am really afraid to reboot my phone :laugh:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rchtk:
Ok. I'll try rebuilding the boot.img for 7.1.2 and post the method I used so other can try. Won't be before Friday.
