Thanks [MENTION=8190891]Dimontiman[/MENTION]

Will try the B381

But for now I am trying it again with FF

I have chosen the full ota for the B386

And there where two smaller files also B386

But I dont know now if it was mf pv files

Let you guys later know if I will succed with it the second time

Or if it will be possible to update to the B381

Thanks again

EDIT:

Yes, I am now confirming that the update B386 is FULL OTA but not mf pv file

SO DONT TRY TO INSTALL IT WILL FAIL FOR SURE

And I tried it two times and downloaded it two times and every time it failed

Right now I am downloading the B381 File wich has the mf pv mark and is also FULL OTA

Hope It works now

Will let you know later :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
It happened again

Again !!!

Look at the pictures

It happened again and I dont know why

If someone can say how to install it via twrp

I mean where are the zip files

Couse I am gonna get it this way or the other

I did not wanted to unlock it root it in the first week but now since it wont update what I want to I am gonna install it maually

Please give me advice for maybe not making some mistake with FF or is it riski to install the zip file couse I have read that some got in good trouble for installing wrong twrp or other problems

I mean

Just look at the pictures

I spent half of the day downloading couse I have slow download speed

And then some stupid authentication
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
Thanks [MENTION=7824497]Rommco05[/MENTION]

Well, I have read that you need to be on MM

But then some of them had reported that it is not needed to be on MM to update

And actually few users said its working directly with FF

But nowhere was explained what files to use

Then one user said it must be the full ota with the mv pf name

And as you see again failed

Wich leaves me to downgrade and try again

And I also did not install the small zip file

Couse everybody was saying not to pick the small ones but the right one would be the big one with 2+ GB

Man, this was some bad day

Will try tomorrow from MM

If that wont work will see to install twrp

Well, will let you know

If it helps any way couse what I was reading is that there was several users succeded not evan to downgrade to MM

Some of them tried the small package by mistake and it failed

Some having trouble to roll back

Its a mess if you ask my opinion

With so many diffrent ways reported

:)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
What are you doing?

Why do you don't listen to previous posts.. Where is stated that you have to be on marshmallow..

1. Download files via FF, best use in the settings from FF the proxy and send to updater app as you did, yes use the full ota mf pv b381 but when you sent to update app via FF you have to choose in update app the three toggles and choose download actual full update

2. When the download finishes, don't install through update app but click, install later

3. Go to filemanager and move the downloaded files from internal folder hwouc to SD card. After this go to update app and click install, and which will fail as you moved the files.

4. Use the first file the update.zip and extract it in a folder named 'dload', the extracted files have to be in Dload and not in the extracted folder so move them out of the newly extracted folder into dload folder

5. Dial

[MENTION=8190891]Dimontiman[/MENTION]

As it seems my mistake is that I need to be

on MM first

Couse I am already on B360 nougat

This is what I have done

Run the FF and it showed me all the firmwares and I first time did not know

that you could only use the B381 not the B386

And that it need to have mv pf name

First time selected B386 full ota and then send the firmware to updater then changed proxy then selected to find the latest full firmware and it gave me the B386 of 2.4GB

Then I downloaded it

It passed the verify step and then it gave the messege to restart to install

After that it pop up the messege that authentication failed and it will be deleted

Can see the pictures in few posts back

I did that twice with B386

Than one user said that it needs to have the mv pf name and to be full ota

The next time I saw that B381 is like the user said

Downloaded that one and it happened again

Failed

Now one user said you must be on MM

But I was reading few users reported to used FF and directly updated with no roll back

Now I dont know if thay did it diffrent but its not working for me

Will try tommorow from MM

But there is so many users writing so many diffrent ways and all of them say this works or this works.. for me.. this is to many diffrent ways reported
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
Please only listen to what I say ok?

And you will be fine and enjoying the b381 update, and if you don't use the dload method you Will fail so do what I said and everything will be fine.. Promise
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
[MENTION=8190891]Dimontiman[/MENTION]

Ok, promise will try it out as you said

But one more thing..

What is the step 5. Dial ?

Everything else I do understand but not what to dial

Maybe I could search for it but who knows what others would say again

For now I am tired and need a bit of sleep

Lost half day for downloading and failing

[MENTION=8190891]Dimontiman[/MENTION] I will let you know tommorow

Thanks for helping out
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
Why are you irritating this user with rollback?

As I am updating every time using this method without rollback, and it 100 percent works, but you shouldn't talk about unnecessary rollback..

No stress at all but has to be mentioned

Yes you are right:laugh: about b386, and still have to wait for this but I promise will work with dload method as soon as right file is out.

---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 PM ----------

Dial?

When you call a number don't you dial the number?

I hope you understand

Use the combination in telephone app

No problem mate:)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] omartins:
So much misinformation (and lack of reading...)

Dial: *#*#2846579#*#*

Enjoy ?

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
Hehe you are right about my instructions, they were cutted beginning from point 5.

Thx that you mention this

OK second and last try:

Update process:

1. Unzip [extract] the update.zip to the SD card into the dload folder (if folder is not present, create it yourself)

2. In the phone app, enter the combination *#*#2846579#*#*, then select "Software Upgrade" and

The update from SD start

3. Delete the data in the dload folder

4. Repeat point 1-3 with the update_data_full_hw_eu.zip

5. WipeCache (personal recommendation)

Big post just to help a bit

Me again :)

But this time with success of updating to the B381

First of all to say big thanks to [MENTION=3590743]omartins[/MENTION] for giving the

DIAL CODE ( but please correct it couse it is just ONE STAR on the start and ONE STAR on the end )

and thank you for making [MENTION=8190891]Dimontiman[/MENTION] to say more details about how to flash it..

Although it was still not so much clear and therefor I will just add an picture how it should look like

So, you need to make the dload folder on the SD card and extract all the files

You get one big zip file called full ota

First you extract this one

Then you get two more zips wich where inside of the big zip file

The first one to flash is the update.zip

The second one to flash is the full ota.zip

BUT, when you make the dload folder on your SD card

And then you put the first update.zip it wont flash anything

At least for me it gave me the message that there is no file on the SD card to make the update

So it was a fail...

But when you extract that update.zip to the dload folder on your SD card

You will get 3 files ( look at the provided picture ) I took the picture on the PC but it's the same thing

THEN you DIAL THE CODE and press software update from SD card and then it will start the update

AFTER it installs the first 3 files from update.zip it will reboot with all your settings and files

AFTER THAT you delete all 3 files inside the dload folder and again extact the second zip

and it need again to have 3 files in the dload foleder just like the first one ( look at the picture wich files )

One thing you need to know

The first update of the first update.zip files takes a bit more time and it will not change the firmware version

The second time full ota zip 3 files will be fast and also leave your settings and files

as they where but this time after this flash it will change you firmware to B381

Thats it :)

Hope I will with this big post help people like me who dont know how to do it or are not sure of it

Couse I have lost so much time just to update it for myself for the first time

And everybody is giving different instructions or not saying it enough in details or step by step

Hope I have helped someone :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
4. Use the first file the update.zip and extract it in a folder named 'dload', the extracted files have to be in Dload and not in the extracted folder so move them out of the newly extracted folder into dload folder

If you would have red my instruction more patient you wouldn't have any problems, point 4 explains why update don't start from SD card and the solution :)

Sorry for posting and incomplete instruction, and I didn't realized that my post ended after step 5, although there was more.. Dial code and so on..

I happy that you updated although successfully :good:

Never forget to use search function inside xda because updating is described 100 times see previous posts on b381 and don't forget we are here discussing on b386

Never mind
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
Hi [MENTION=8190891]Dimontiman[/MENTION]

It's ok now, and BIG thanks for your instructions

And as promised I have done your method

It is like you said easy to do with no roll back and all that stuff

And thanks for the mega link it saved me a lot of time

Thanks
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
No Problem mate you are welcome :)

Yes Rollback is not needed, but for a fresh install it is also a good workaround:good:

So let's wait until b386 is flashable, because battery is not what I am used from b131... MM
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
Well, I have this phone for about 9 days for now

And the first day after few hours I updated it through its settings to Nougat B360

My battery and SOT was always over 6 hours and evan once 7 hours and 49 minutes

Now I have updated to the B381 couse I saw some user who updated to B381

had the battery and SOT for 8 hours and 50 minutes with 10% battery left

I will report back if I have now better SOT and battery with B381

Last night on B360 it did not lose not evan 1%..

I charged it and before sleep unpluged it from the charger

This morning it still was 100% battery

Anyway I was already satisfide with B360 but want to know if it can get evan better

- Tried flashing using TWRP, it failed.

- Used dload method also failed

- Normal OTA on stock recovery also failed.

Till the MF-PV version of the update isn't available, it won't work.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
If you would have looked at page 3 and some of it at pages 4, 5 and 6 you could have seen it is not working with the B386 firmware

And that it needs to have the full ota mv pf file name

Till then it is not flashable..

The lates wich you can try out and install it is the B381 :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] sysak:
The TWRP throws Error 7 which usually means that it is protecting the device from flashing an incompatible package. Maybe the zip could be made flashable in TWRP by modifying the META-INF file, using the one from B381 zip as a basis? I'd try it, but got exams at the moment, so can't spare any time.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] sysak:
The latest version posted by enricogrim on 13th of May has 2 zips that still fail, but i had a quick look at the content of the META-INF and it looks very complex.

But I do remember reading a guide describing what to modify in a zip to fix the Error 7 on xdaforums in the past so probably it's doable.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] faizalotai:
I dont think its about the script, but img from updates.app is different from the previous one that its keep throwing error about ota updates.

If we look to mdm file, the ones written full package.

And there's some app been delete and upgrade to newest version in data folder in those script file.

You're completely right. I accidentally looked at the link for the L19 package from that blog, which had v84287 in the address and i compared it to the L09 v84259 from the hwmt.ru. That's why i thought the package from the blog was newer. Sorry for the confusion.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
Hii [MENTION=4889526]deadko[/MENTION]

I think if it would be to download the "real" one we would have it already

Anyway the FF gave us the info that B386 was over FF already in April to be seen but not flashable

So we got the info about B386 sooner

And this link is postet 10 May

So if the full version comes we will know sooner over FF

There is a 2 files version, not PV, which does not work :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dimontiman:
Not on FF
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] netvorCZEK:
I don't really know if PV means Point Version or PreView, but it doesn't make any sense to release updates with capacity of 2+ GB, if you are already on Android 7, but any doubt about it cannot be flashed without it..
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] pix106:
... or Public Version (my guess)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] brljak83:
Should be like some ''public version'' and not for normal user..

Maybe the other one wich are only mf can be downloaded from some developers

couse their device would not say not authorized firmware...

I tried to install the one without PV only had MF and any I have tried

it was not authorized..

So maybe they have some developer devices wich are ''authorized'' to install it and test it

I found a killer deal on a used Pixel XL, so I don't have a reason to swap out backs on my OPO anymore. Definitely going to throw the bamboo on ebay, but I figured I would see if anyone wanted to buy it without me having to pay fees. I'll do an even fifty bucks (what I originally paid back in the day) on the bamboo plus whatever shipping method you want through a gmail money transfer or paypal.

I also have my OPO with sandstone back. It never saw a case and rarely saw a screen protector, so it is worth more in parts. If you need anything from it, let me know. The screen, with the many scratches (not seen w/ screen on), has a fresh oleophobic coating on it. So it feels new, and repels fingerprints as if it is.

I just got in five camera lens covers, the piece of glass that covers the camera on the back that gets scratched all to hell, that I will be getting rid of too. And a battery that is on the way from ali. I will test the battery for capacity and sell that one for what I have in it, plus ship and fees. Same for the lenses. So if you need a battery shipped from Tennessee instead of China, let me know.

Mods: I don't know if this breaks any rules or not. If it does, please feel free to delete. No harm no foul. I am not trying to run an enterprise or anything, just trying to give first dibs to 'active' xda OPO owners. You can go back to the original Moto X days and see where I gave away, with free shipping, some cases and screen protectors for the OG Moto X. And delivered on my promises. So not trying to hoodoo anyone.

Anywho... I will probably get around to ripping apart the OPO next week and will be posting things on ebay then. So if you want before it goes on ebay for max price, let me know.

I'm interested in the bamboo back cover, as I've been searching all over for ages and haven't had any luck. Please let me know exactly how much you'd like for it as well as exactly how the transaction will take place, as I'd like to get my hands on it.

(I also sent a PM, if you'd rather carry on this conversation there.)
[ONE Accessories] phermey:
It's $50 for the bamboo and will be $43 for the sandstone. Those are the prices I paid. Plus ship ($7.15 for small flat rate box USPS), plus any money transfer fees. I am not really interested in filling out forms to ship internationally but I will... If I cannot sell on ebay. My experience shipping to china and uk adds another $30 or $40 to the ship price.

As for the Sandstone back, I have decided to try and make the 4,000 mah ZTE battery work for the opo. I have the zte batt in house, just waiting on the cheap opo replacement batt. So will not be busting down the opo until I get that project done. Should be some time this week. If it works... I will post a vid on youtube for you guys on how to do it. Either way the Sandstone will be ready to ship out once I get it done.
