Hello everyone.
I'm asking this because i'm interested in buying this phone and in one store it say that it come with android 5.1 but I can't find record of that update anywhere, every source I've consulted says it's stuck on Kit Kat and that there are no plans of updating. Can anyone confirm this?
Also what do you think of the phone, from what I saw it seems to perform quite well and should be a good upgrade from my LG E975, but I'm also a bit torn because I can get an ASUS ZenFone 2 Deluxe for around the same price, both heavily discounted.
Thank you and Happy Christmas

Dont worry. Its normal for china phones to not have play store pre-installed. And also dont worry about non showing update. You need to update via pc first (because it repartitions your storage) Do you have the normal z7 (Nx506j)? Or do you have the mini or max version?
Yes I do have the normal ZTE Nubia Z7 with Nubia UI v2.6.2, Android 4.4.2, Build Number NX506J_CNCommon_V1.26 and Hardware Version NX506JMB_B

I'm just buying this Huawei Mediapad X1 and install app. Sometimes app cannot install in playstore "your device isn't compatible with this version." I'm downloading the apk and install but failed. Here the list:
- Foursquare --> your device isn't compatible with this version in playstore. Googling and i have the apk, installed it in E File Explorer and failed. Cannot installed.
- Google Plus --> searching in playstore and no result.
- BBM --> installing success, not tested, in playstore isn't compatible with this version.
- Agoda --> same like foursquare. Failed.
Why this app cannot be installed in my Mediapad X1? I'm using the newest Kitkat 4.4.2 ROM 501U R002 B010.
Sorry for my bad english.

It may depend from the 400 dpi introduced by 4.4.2. Unfortunately Huawei has made this very bad choice for 4.4.2 on Mediapad X1… you can change the dpi (320,as in 4.2.2, is fine) with some tricks, but this results in some other stuff broken. Many of us here are hoping the next release will fix this issue. So far, we have had an update from Huawei almost every month… let us keep wishing…

Thanks for the reply.
Wish the next OTA update will fix this issue and i can download all apps without problem.
The list of stuff that is incompatible with the new 400DPI keeps growing longer.
I went to install the new Angry Birds Stella today only to find its incompatible as are a bunch of the other Angry Birds versions...
Gas Buddy doesn't work anymore either, I used that quite a bit before.
Huawei, please help!
Is there is really no chances to fix this? What is breaking when switching back to 320 DPI?

The only fix is to have Huawei redo their framework for 320DPI like it was in 4.2.2.
There isn't any good way to fix the DPI without breaking other things unfortunately.
The only thing that might work is rooting the phone and using Xposed Framework to be able to change DPI per app individually, but I have been unsuccessful in getting that working so far as Huawei has their own framework on this rom.
I see... Ok Lets hope for a chance that Huawei will listen the public opinion.

Hopefully this phone becomes popular enough for CyanogenMod to pick it up. (Assuming Huawei releases the driver source) I'd love to see a more stripped down Android on this thing. It's a like sluggish at times, needs to be free from the Huawei stuff...
The Amazon app isn't compatible anymore with this new 400DPI. ugh....
I am on Kitkat B102 and has absolutely no problems installing and running following apps : FourSquare, Agoda, Google+, Amazon appstore
My rom build : 7D501LV100R002C100B102

Will Google Launcher solve the DPI and Apps installation?
I dont use google launcher . And this launcher can be installed n works too as confirmed by some Malaysian users. Strange indeed some users cannot even installed some app. My unit still at 400dpi which I find not significantly much bigger than 320dpi. There is no to.sf.lcd density in build.prop file for you to change this value. I am using Nova launcher

B102 for 501L (out Sept 6, 2014). no problem installing apps like foursquare, google plus, agoda, etc. You have the newer ROM.
B010 for 501U and 503L (out Aug 15, 2014) is the problem. Me and people use this rom build waiting for the next OTA update, i hope fixed the DPI issue like B102 for 501L.

7D-501u,g 3G version
7D-503L 4G, China TDD LTE version
7D-501L 4G, International LTE version
You can see the build number in setting, about phone.
or...
Just waiting the next OTA update for the other version, i'm sure Huawei will update this.
Small correction: 7D-503L has both TDD and FDD modem. That is, works with many international networks, but not all.

Mine is 7D-501uV100R002C208B008 - maybe the L and U signify different things - anyway loads of stuff doesn't work anymore
Is there a way to go back to 4.2?
Thanks
If your model is 7D-501u, you have the 3G version, which is supposed to be sold in China. It can be used in other countries if the cellular bands are compatible. But for ROM update, you will need to visit Huawei's Chinese website.
For 7D-501u, if you want to go back to Android 4.2, the ROM version is: V100R001C233B021. It comes with EMUI 2.0.
Click the link below to download:
http://www.emui.com/nsp/geturl.php?path=7D-501u_EMUI2.0_Android 4.2_V100R001C233B021.zip&rid=771
Place the file on your SD card and flash it. Note that it will wipe your data. So back up first.
There is a not-publicly-released version that is Android 4.4 + EMUI 2.3 + 320dpi, ROM version is V100R002C553B001, downloadable at:
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...g0/v15243/f2/full/7D-501uV100R002C553B001.zip
Same as the above one, SD card flash, back up data first.

friends, no lollipop rom 5.0 for ZTE with screen 5 "?
I need it
Not yet.
I see this link.. http://www.rom-lollipop.org/mp3-0/zte-nubia-z7-mini-6492.html
not sure if anyone has tried it yet.
It's fake! Do not install it. You can brick your phone!
apologies, yes after looking at the rest of the site I realized it seems fake.
ZTE has announced Lollipop for the Z7 Max (not sure about the mini, haven't checked). A beta rom is available in the official nubia forums.
I have been buying phones from China for the last 10 years and I have to say this is the most regularly updated phone I have ever had. My expectations from all previous phones is to ensure it is running the latest code when purchasing it because you will never see any updates for it. So it would be no surprise to me that Nubia would release 5.0 for all its models. Will definitely be buying another Nubia when its time to update.
Lollipop 5.0
Use Google translate...
http://bbs.nubia.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=378407&mobile=2
No lollipop yet except for beta testing, but a new update is available for Z7 Max, ver. 1.59.

Hello, to put it simple, i got a new phone(my first smart/android phone) it's a Huawei y5 ii (Cun-L01), I saw that it's 5.0 OS ver. so i was wondering can i update it to Android 7.0 nougat?
i google it but all the sites didn't seem trustworthy enough.
can i even update android OS on a phone that came with an older version?
when i click update on the settings nothing happens, does that mean Lolipop android is the max my phone can use?
Thanks for any help i may get

Nothing official for Y5 higher than LP, but search xda for 'huawei y5 ii', and you see several posts about root and recovery. Someone could build LOS or something...
Hi there,
Probably a silly question, I have a SGP312 and it is on Lollipop since 3 years, do you think is there a way to upgrade to the latest Android 8.1?
If not 8.1, what would be the highest version I can go and how?
The Tablet is essentially a stock one, I never did anything on it, just applied the Sony updates they made available for this old model.
Thank you,
Alex

Hello!
It's quite possible to install even the latest 8.1, though it is still not that stable now.
If you want 99% bug-free experience, i would stick to android 7.1.2, like Resurrection Remix ROM till 8.1 gets to a polished state.
Check this guide for installing custom ROMs on device.
Thank you for the link!
I will give it a try very soon.

Hi buddies,
I have a Sony Xperia Tablet Z (Model: SGP321) with Lollipop v5.0.2.
I had rooted it since a couple of years, so no need to say, it couldn't be upgraded to any higher version of android.
Now I unrooted it and wanna upgrade its android.
My questions:
1. What's the highest Android version officially released for this model?
2. What's the best version you advise me to install on it?
Thanks for your kind & prompt reply.
Cheers,
Leon

Hello!
1. The latest official firmware is android 5.1.1 (v.10.7.A.0.222 or 10.7.A.0.228 depending on region, though internally they are identical).
You can update via xperia-companion software.
2. What's the best only you can say. If stock sony one works good for you, stick to it.
If you have knowledge how to install, and want to try something "custom", there are firmwares based on android 7.1.2 and 8.1 on this forum.
The media players on my Xperia sgp312 keep pausing, has it got something to do with the software, I am still on Android 5.1.1
Dear Team
Can i have the latest firmware for docooler M9s pro s905 3 GB 32GB
I have a TV box with Android 5.1 and as i can see people are talking about 7.1, Is there any way to have a link or a file to update my old firmware
OTA applications is not supporting this product and the manufacture them self is not answering my requests also am not finding any link over the internet has the latest firmware file.
Thank you so much for your support.
It seems that no one is using this kind of BOX!
