I have just bought Honor 7 in Croatia two days ago. Since Android 6.0 is avalaible for Honor 7 users in Europe, I tried to update mine using EMUI software update on my Huawei. I got the message that there are no any updates so I found out they are rolling update through HiCare app and you can update it from over there. So I checked HiCare app and marked my location as Croatia/Europe and clicked on Upgrading ROM and agreed to terms and agreements and there was a Marshmallow update and then instead of updating, I got a ''Unfortunely, not enough space'' message. I don't even know why since all I got are Huawei apps and Google stock apps which have already been on my phone when I turned it on when I bought it. Right now, it says I have 8,03 GB free on my phone, yet whenever I try to update the phone via HiCare app, it still says ''Not enough space''.
It's so weird, could someone please help or does someone have the same problem?
Thank you.
Do a force update manually by following these steps, you can get firmwares from here:
Download your phone's latest firmware.
After doing this put the UPDATE.APP in dload folder of your external SDCARD.
Switch off your phone, and press Vol UP + Vol DOWN + Power button simultaneously.
Your device will now get to the full stock firmware.
This will give you a out of the box feeling.

Hi!
Today ICS for TPH (unbranded) was released according to @SamKiesUpdates and sort after I began receiving a update message from Software Update service asking to update (When I bought the phone I in my naiveness turn the options on on Settings->About->Software Update).
Software update never asked me for nothing and every time I did a check for update it said none until today.
My question is: Is there a way to stop it from asking? I can postpone the update up until 7 days but the icon saying that it was postponed stays nagging
Also does anyone know the download folder for the service in case it has download the ROM update?

Pretty simple...Go to settings-->about phone-->Software Update-->Uncheck Auto update and Push message option...Probably reboot if required.
And that should do it.
Don't forget to hit the thanks button if it helped.
Thanks for the tip, it helped but wasn't enough...
I had to go also to Settings->Applications->Manage Application->All->Software Update and do a Clear Data
Then I rebooted just to be sure... and it stopped
Please set it again and dont clear data.
Hey guys.
Reaching out to see if any has been able to use the Firmware Finder app to update the firmware? Currently I'm on 108 however can download 122 via the app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teammt.gmanrainy.huaweifirmwarefinder
Now is does say its incompatible at first however you can indeed download either the latest OTA or full firmware, but seemingly can't get the device to acknowledge it. Things I've tried:
- Using the VPN and DNS options in firmware finder, then checking for system updates
- Putting the downloaded OTA zip in a created folder on internal storage called DLOAD, rebooting to recovery, but nothing happens.
- Tried extracting all the contents of the zip into that folder, again recovery doesn't acknowledge it.
It'd be great if we could perform manual updates like this, though annoying if the best we could do is merely download it!
Anyone any suggestions?
Let's see if we can get this working...
*update - seems I was entering recovery (power off and then power on holding power button + volume up) where I should have gone to download mode (hold both volume up and down). It gets to a screen but says Installation Failed. That's with the zip directly in the DLOAD folder and then sigh the contents extracted....
I used to use this app on my Honor 9 Lite, however it hasn't worked for a long time.
The method they used was to spoof the Huawei servers using DNS etc to trigger an OTA but Huawei changed the server location.
This app purely exists now to tell you there is an update available to download, however you'll need to use other methods to get it installed, which probably requires an unlocked bootloader at the very least, then a firmware flash tool.

Is there a way to establish that new location, to then use the correct proxy/DNS details?

Apparently not, or at least the developer of that App doesn't seem to think so.
I am also looking to update to the latest firmware too, it has been pushed out to some devices, but nothing for me yet. Although I did get a 3 branded update, I'm hoping that hasn't messed up my OTA's from Huawei

That's similar to what I did, put my old Tesco(O2) sim in slot 1 - No branding. The next day I also put my 3 sim into slot 2, after a few minutes an OTA pops up.
Checked on here a a few people said it's safe to install, it just activates Wi-Fi calling & the 3 apps.
After reboot it had also installed a 3 splash screen & changed my chrome homepage to the 3 website.
Minor annoyances yes, apparently fixed by a Factory reset. I just hope the change in software version doesn't delay future updates. Hopefully this 122 update pushes out soon.

Cool yeah well I'm on Three network but yet to be branded, but still haven't received an update so likely the branding isn't a cause, perhaps...

I've got a nokia 7.1 and setting up now. I have three problems.
I cannot install netflix. It does not appear from the google play store. If I install it manually, only showed a message 'this phone is not supported.' what will be the problem?
I cannot use google pay. I can load the information of my credit card. When I try to authenticate the card for the actual use, it fails. The app says, this phone is unlocked or changed and for the security reason, the use of google pay is restricted. But in my knowledge, my phone is in mint condition.
It is android 9. with security patch for 1Aug2018. I found from your website that it is not the latest update so I tried to update but, the system update says this is the latest version.
I'd like to fix at least the security update problem. It is annoying to keep it August.
Any solutions?
Is there any way to install the security update manually?
Are you running the standard ROM? Sounds like you might be rooted and running a custom ROM.

Are you bootloader unlocked? Netflix will not install if the phone is bootloader unlocked.
You can manually install the security patch OTAs. Go to the OTA DLL thread ...skip to page 6/7. Download the .zip package for the each monthly update and put them on an SD Card. Reboot to recovery and select "apply update from SD."
I'm on mobile so I can't link right now.
I have to admit, I'm pretty confused and a bit tired... nothing is working for me as in other phones and I can't seem to find any reliable info how to tackle my problems :/
I have the RMX2202 model in the 8/128 GB version.
My end goal is to have Android 12 and from what I read, I need the latest Android 11 update first for that. Only, the system shows me that the version I have (RMX2202_11_A.13) is already the latest, and from what I look on the internet, A.16 is already available.
I even downloaded a zip with both the OS version A.16 and the Android 12 beta, but when I try to install either of them, it shows me "Verification failed. Package incompatible with your system."
I also tried booting the phone in safe mode, because I saw that people on YT had an option to install from a file there.... but I don't have it. I can only do Wipe, or Reboot.
Please help :c
PS.: This phone is from a major chain store in Poland, so I'm assuming it is the Global version.
Welcome to XDA
Consider yourself lucky.
Android 11 and 12 are a mess.
Android 10 is still relatively functional and usable.
Rule #1 - If your device firmware is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission, let it be.
Thank you for the welcoming msg
But just one thing, I said that I have RMX2202_11_A.13 on my phone right now, so I'm already on the Android 11, but just not on the latest update of it.
And I understand your point, but I'd still want to try Android 12, and even root this phone in the future.
I appreciate your warnings, but these are my needs right now and I'd very much like to know how and if I can do it at all on this phone
Android 12 beta was only for firmware a09.
Have the exact same issues! Can't do anything, I think it might be that I choose to unlock the bootloader via dev option but not sure, have you done that as well? I cant boot in to real recovery (only have the same option as you mentioned, wipe,reboot,turn of)
Can someone help us or point us in the right direction on how we can at least sideload an update somehow? No root, stock ROM.

Here's what I done.
Installed the VPN below
LineCN - VPN to visit China - Apps on Google Play
A VPN Application for Chinese to visit China
play.google.com
Run the VPN
Run software update. Now a blue button should appear. Click on it.
Download and pray for the gods.

It works for me! I needed to put the slider back from "unlock bootloader" and restart the phone then I got it! Thank you very much!
Hello,
I have the exact same issue, I am stuck in RMX2202_11_A.13
I tried VPN, I tried re-enabling all user-disabled apps but nothing seems to work.
I have a global phone with global rom but I would like to get at least some update.
The update by VPN worked for me but I still dont have the Normal recovery, only partial. The is a bit weird to me.
