Hi, i'm having some issues with this official Samsung firmware download (Lollipop 5.0.1). (from Sammobile.com)
My problem, mainly, is the speed/instability of my internet connection. Yes, problems of the third world, I live in Venezuela; So I want to see who can help me with the download of this ROM, and, for example, upload it as a Torrent file (would be the most optimal solution), or simply upload it to a service like Mediafire, Mega, etc. So I can download it easily. I would be grateful if you would help me, as I urgently need it. Thank you.
Since I cannot post links, first I just need you to tell me if any of you can help me; Then, I can share the link via email, for example. I leave it under your choice :good:
Hi. You could try download from updato. They got official Samsung firmwares just like sammobile, but with fast download without registration.

Thanks, man. It's a nice choice, but download stops before reaching half of it
The same happened with sammobile ones. And the worst thing is that downloads cannot be resumed.
The only solution seems to be to download the firmware as a torrent, but I couldn't find it anywhere.

You can use Ninja Download Manager (https://ninjadownloadmanager.com/download-free/) - it has helped me whenever I faced broken/failed downloads.

Thanks, I'll consider this option to be able to face future file download issues. But i've found a solution: a software called SamFirm.
It allows you to download Samsung official firmware downloads, and when a problem like the one that has occurred to me happens, solves it by appending corrupt downloaded file with the rest of it, that, obviously will start downloading instantly. No need to re-download all the entire file, just the necessary fragments.

You can try some free VPN, or even Fre*gate to avoid the internet censorship. Most file hosting sites outside mainland China are now censored by the GFW. Wish you good luck.

I encounter the same issue. The ROM which I download from the Eastern link via a VPN can not unzip.
And it's size is 311.11M.
There seems some issue on the server.

Hi guys,
Can anyone provide a flashable 10.1.C.0.370 FIRMWARE for SGP312 US Version? (32GB, Wifi only). CWM flashable file prefered, but I guess .ftf file will do as well. Thanks in advance
Ping....anyone?
I need it too!
not going to flash the Japan 370 version

There is a UK version for SGP312 in development section, but I'm not flashing that either. You lose your TV providers for built-in remote control app, and some other US specific apps and settings. There are millions of people with this tablet in US - I'm amazed that no one wants to help. Very much unlike XDA.

It's because most of the people don't bother modifying tablets unless they're Asus or Sammy tablets. Sony tablets and phones really aren't that popular, in the US, yet in the modding community cause they had crap products for years and now that their products are good and they're offering the best support out of any of the other OEMs.

XDA doesn't allow 4shared as a file host. Could you use another like mega or Google Drive or dev-host? I'm not the one behind the link being deleted (in case you were wondering ), just chiming in about the file hosts thing

On several occasions in XDA's Sony Tablet S forum, I used 4shared URLs as a file download source and the forum's participants could download the files without problem (except for the registering thing and free download speed).

I deleted the file last night because I did not like the bump it hit during its first upload. I was too tired to upload the file again last night, so I waited until this morning to re-upload the file. The download URL appears to be working now. I apologize for the confusion.

Yes, 4shared is not really recommended precisely because of the registration requirement. It's much preferred if you use one without such a requirement, like mega, Google Drive or dev-host

Thanks for the information. I have never used dev-host, so I will investigate and if possible, upload the file there.
Edit: I joined Dev-Host and donated $25.00. Big mistake! Worst web site interface ever! And slow! After four failed attempts, I am now trying to upload the file a fifth time.
2nd Edit: Finally got the file uploaded to Dev-Host. Took 3.5 hours. Unbelievable!
It still requires registration, in order to download. I'm not going to register with my real email on a public web share like that, just to download a file. If someone could upload the firmware to a host with no restrictions - would be very much appreciated
@Cat McGowan: can you post a MD5 for the file, to make sure it didnt get corrupted during upload? Thx

I uploaded the file to Dev-Host. I changed the URL and added the MD5 Sum to my OP.
Thank you very much. People like you are an asset to the XDA community....I will test it and will post the firmware to the development section, along with the instructions on how to flash FTF files
I lost root after flashing the update. Still investigating...
UPDATE: After flashing LK bootloader TWRP 2.6 started to work and it's so smart it recognized I don't have root and offered to install SuperSU and root the device without me even doing anything. After doing all that my device is rooted again and running .370 update + newest TWRP 2.6.0.0. Mad props to TeamWin. I will post the firmware and instructions in the dev section after I wake up

I lose root access every time I re-install the firmware (done several times using Sony Mobile's Update Service), but I expect to lose root access because Sony Mobile's Update Service does a "clean install". Losing root is no problem for me because I can quickly and easily regain root access using DooMLoRD's XTZ Easy Rooting Toolkit.

I appreciate the update and details of your actions taken. I am going to avoid doing anything beyond gaining root access until Sony releases their official version of Android 4.2 or better.
DooMLoRD's XTZ Easy Rooting Toolkit didn't work for me on this .370 update, but since it's possible to flash custom recovery like TWRP - that's no biggie. TWRP handled gaining root access very nicely. I highly recommend LK bootloader, now that I've played with it for a while. Right now it's the only way to run TWRP 2.6, which is awesome.
I created a thread in DEV section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2363932

OK I promise the above URL isn't malicious. I need this specific file to download. Internet too slow(both mine and the site's), and if i pause just once, the download gets canceled. I've already tried to download it 5 times.
I'm not willing to go to sammobile for premium updates, unless there's a way to download for free.
Can anyone volunteer and get me this file on a better mirror if possible?
For which country?

I think it mentions it. It's KSA.
The link for the firmware you need which is on androidfilehost: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347831027
You can download any OTA from Firmware finder (android or pc version) and flash it !
Currently it works 100% if you follow the instructions below to the letter
Warning !
Keep in mind that you are going to flash a newer version that is not yet released for your region.
This could result in having to reset your phone or a unstable system
Also the firmware could not be verified yet by google, so some apps could stop working.
Most of the time it is safe to flash a newer version when you read that someone has received it by OTA in a different country.
When i flashed the 185 firmware no wipe was done. I was coming from 178.
This is no insurance that it will never wipe your phone, so backup always !!
Check this youtube video for the entire procedure (for mate 20, but everything else is the same basically) https://youtu.be/g9pPi7I1SNc
This guide is based on the Mate 20 guide but modified for some parts, the only thing i have invested is the time to create this guide and my P30 Pro for countless flashes.
Check here for more info and download links
All other credits are mentioned below this guide.
Full guide: (WINDOWS Only) (You need at least 30GB free on the c: drive)
Get the all in one package here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MkNW9tAwpKwKR6fl3YsmlHWtfrvwAXQu/view?usp=sharing
Or download from the following site(s)
1. You need version 9.0.2.301 from hisuite (or the version from my package, is is slightly newer), if you are already using the newer HiSuite version 9.0.2.305 then uninstall this
2. Use Hisuitepatchinstaller found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/how-to/hisuite-patch-hstool-t3910147 after installation of the correct HiSuite version
If for some reason you cannot download HiSuitepatchinstaller then u can use the FHHiSuiteInstaller, You can find under the "HiSuite Method" menu HERE, then unzip en run this''.
3. Next you need Hstool (currently at version 1.30), It is included in my download pack or download this at: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/how-to/manual-upgrading-mate-20-pro-bl-locked-t3905924
Create a folder on your laptop/pc on the C: drive called Hstool and put the downloaded "Hstool.exe" file in it.
4. You need to download firmware using Firmware Finder from GPlay or site and NOT the ones from dload folder.
This will ensure that you download the correct version for your phone.
Put the downloaded file also in the "c:\Hstool" folder.
5.. Instead of downloading (step 4) you can also use this OTA file (it is version 185) this version
VOG-L29 tested, for other versions maybe it is better to use firmwaredownloader from step 4
6. Grab the file from here and replace the file in C:/Windows/User/yourusername/AppData/HiSuite/userdata/UpdateDogDev/HiSuiteConfig.xml
7. Put the full OTA file inside the folder where HStool tool is located and start HStool and follow the instructions
BUT when it asks to put a # before the entry 127.0.0.1 query.hicloud.com, change it to 159.138.6.23 query.hicloud.com
Known issues :
1. Sometimes the XML is being replaced automatically by HiSuite. So make sure you update this just before you start flashing
2. Do check if the hosts file is correctly edited just before you start the final step. You can do this by doing a "ping query.hicloud.com"
Thanks to @SLVMSF for the info and links
Thanks to @mikeos for HStool
Thanks to @Zanr Zij for the modded XML file to make it compatible for the P30 pro
Note:
This guide is work in progress and has been updated on 04-08-2019
Nice work, m8. I will try tomorow to merge some infos about hosts and what's different in Funky Huawei vs offline after i get my hands on a laptop and install all necessary for helping you.
Cheers,

It's the same thing, Huawei is releasing international versions. The versions for dload method are different, but what i had linked it's what you need. You can flash without any doubt LGRP2-OVS.

That works on the VOG-L29 just perfectly. I have one myself
Got myself a laptop here on my site's work and tried to update using HSTool without Fumky Huawei servers, but with no luck . I get the No Internet Connection problem.
Maybe someone who installed without FH could enlighten us
I tried different hosts, including official query. hicloud.com, still nothing

Yes, Need help to understand what's missing from FH side. Same issue here as well.
Also, Check this Post made by me a while back. I Got ahead of the internet connection step a while back.
However the firmware didn't pass to the device.
The correction was in the hosts file, Check the hosts file I have attached in that thread. It has the correct FH Entry.
Did you guys try the sideload file i also posted in the FP not from funky ?
And did you replace the xml file ?

Hi
Did you find a way to download official firmware.
All links sent me on the official chinese page (http://fans.hisense.com/thread-170868-1-1.html) where is no download link. Anf if I try to create a count I need a chinese number phone :crying:
so how did you do or do you have the file ?
Why not contact them? http://global.hisense.com/contact
I did it one week ago now and I received any answer
I have the stock firmware (the bilingual) if you still need it, also the GAPPS firmware that is installed through miflash lemme know if you need it.

Hello there. I just bought my second hisense a5c. First one was the original bilingual i´m guessing (color supporting) and second one has gapps. I need to flash the original color firmware on the second one. I loose google play, but i regain color and fix an issue with the gps on an app that´s not running fine on the google version. do you still have the original firmware to share? How can i get my hands in it? And small workaround on flashing it on the hisense would be also well received.
Thanks.
The stock firmware... I´m sharing it using torrent. Here´s the torrent file
HLTE202N_L1657.6.01.04.B5.zip.torrent
Shared with Dropbox
www.dropbox.com
thank's for all
cgmodeler witch GAPPS firmware do you use ?
Hello guys! Can someone upload the firmware for A5C to google drive or somewhere else? Torrent file seems to be dead. Original with coloured screen whithout google play
Can someone upload the A5C firmware somewhere or at least reopen the torrent?
