Hi everyone I been trying to get the factory firmware installed on my ANE-LX1 and it keeps failing at 71%, I have tried the usb methods as well as the cable methods and nothing seem to bear any fruits for me.
Bootloader unlocked yes

Can you give us more info about your issue?
- Which firmware have you installed?
- Which firmware are you trying?
- Are you sure that firmware is ok for your device?
- Did you try HuRUpdater tool?
Can you give us more info about your issue?
Factory new was ANE-LX1C185
I tried installing C432 however had this issue since I tried installing that version.
I only want to get back to my original condition now.
- Which firmware have you installed? tried C432 which did not work also ended at 75% just trying to get back to C185 but sitting on a strange version now as mentioned in other threads
- Which firmware are you trying? Download from firmwarefinder C185 all three files for single sim I used
- Are you sure that firmware is ok for your device? Yes I am 100% sure I am trying the correct version
- Did you try HuRUpdater tool? I have tried numerous times
I also noted now that oem lock not is not showing anymore in the developer section of the phone. not sure why

When you flashed C432 you should flashed first oeminfo from C432.
Did you backup your oeminfo before you tried install C432 firmware?
unfortunately not. I was not aware that I had too is there away around this for me at all?
I did use the file on HWOTA8

Check this only to confirm if the oeminfo installation is ok.
In the dial pad:
*#*#2846579#*#*
-- 3.Information Network Query
- - -4.Vendor Country Info
- - - - Vendor: hw
- -- - - Country: eu
Do you see hw and eu?
Yes I see both

You are with C432 (hw/eu) oeminfo, so the C432 full firmware should be installed without issues and C185 should give you an error when you try it
Did you take oeminfo from HwOTA8? https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-lite/development/hwota8-huawei-p20-lite-t3787787
Your phone is single SIM or dual SIM?
Which method are you using to install C432 firmware?
Do you want stay with C432 or do you prefer go back to C185?
Yes used HwOTA8 for oeminfo (FYI my phone was stock with C185 )
New it was Single sim, tried to get to dual sim.
I used both HwOTA8 as well as the SD card method with HuRUpdater
I am happy to stay with C432 if I can get ota updates as per a normal phone. Currently the phone is showing dual sim however my imei is 000000000000000 , and suspect the carriers in South Africa are blocking the second sim from working so therefore I dont have any use for the dual sim on this phone Unless I can unlock the correct IMEI for the second sim? and have it working with ota updates it would be prize number 1.

As far as I know second SIM got IMEI null after rebrand from single to dual.
When you install C432 firmware with HuRUpdater it run to the end of process?
Do you see your build number in the settings show as correct one like in the pic enclosed?
It runs to 71% or 75% when verification starts is stops and says update failed and gives reboot option
When I try re-brand region I dont get a country option in HwOTA8 , would this affect it?

Not sure, but I have something in mind that is causing this issue, please check this path in the "Version" partition:
/version/special_cust/ANE-L21/hw/eu
Also if exist the folders cust_comm, cust_spec, hw_odm and hw_oem in the root of device
Check pics enclosed.
I assume I need root?
via twr nothing under version, nothing under root folder via twr
ok I managed to get into C432. I did the script and then sd card installation however i did not wipe after the install. seem to be fixed now. thank for your help and time mate.
Hi, i finally success rebranding.
P20 lite Demo ANE-LX1-8.0.0.(C185) (fastboot getvar vendorcountry --> hw/demo ) single SIM
to
P20 lite Europe ANE-LX1-8.0.0.136(C432) (fastboot getvar vendorcountry --> hw/eu ) Dual SIM (both of sim cards works but the imei of the second one is 0000000000)
1st. there is no need to repack the files go directly to option 2
- put your phone in fastboot mode with state phone unlocked and frp unlocked.
- choose option 2 press enter
- if everything is ok you should see that twrp is installed.
- Remove usb cable from computer and reboot holding power button + Volume up
- You should now boot on Twrp, connect the phone using usb cable
-You should see too options choose one for rebranding then choose your country and press enter
-it will copy new oeminfo to device then reboot
- now you will have system rebranded but in some case like mine if you go to system info you will see in build version something like that ( system.8.0.0(OSAV) ).
if you have this you cannot update your device anymore you have to install the correct firmware you choose for region.
to solve this problem.
- go to Firmware Finder and download FullOTA of your firmware (in my case i choose ANE-LX18.0.0.136(C432) FullOTA
-Download HuRUpdater_0.3.zip
-copy the HuRUpdater_0.3.zip file on sdcard in new folder no matter the name .
-Rename downloaded files as above:
update.zip not rename
update_full_ANE-L01_hw_eu.zip to update_all_hw.zip single SIM
update_full_ANE-L21_hw_eu.zip to update_all_hw.zip Dual SIM ( i used this in my case)
update_data_full_public.zip to update_data_public.zip
-copy renamed files in sdcard same folder as Hurupdater_03.zip
-Reboot the phone in Twrp mode
- Go to install and select hurupdater_03.zip and install it .
- Confirm installation by pressing Volume down. Do not do a wipe!
Hope this will help somebody.
Weird fact in all this.
Bought new as C185 Single sim.
I am only able to flash the C432 Dual, The C432 single, C185 Single and C185 Dual dont pick up.

hello everyone,
a friend has recently bought a Sony xperia z2 for me from china and the model i got is the china unicom model (l50u)
the phone is censored on the stock rom it has, cannot use any applications that aren't Chinese government approved i guess (no google play, gmail, etc and you can only download Chinese apps through sony select which is in Chinese and cannot be changed)
this phone model is physically different than the rest of the sony xperia z2 (2.2mm taller, no mic holes, different slot locations )
anyway i unlocked the bootloader (before i really knew what it means, i wanted to root the phone) and then i flashed it with some other official roms using flashtool
when the phone runs on a different rom, everything works great except for the sim not working (the phone is supposedly simfree as it recognizes my not-china-unicom sim) and when its on the stock rom only the sim works and the phone is pretty much useless to me but a weird camera
before i started noobing around the device i updated its firmware through Sony's pc program which gave me the files to create the ftf file from and some more TA files in which one of the is called simlock.ta
i tried installing Emma and see if the phone is registered as simlocked but i couldn't get it to work (it seem like it is no longer for non-sony employees people)
so i ask you. is there any way for me to use this phone with a different official rom and make the sim work with it? is there anything i should know about? any help is appriciated as im new to this community (which i enjoyed lurking around in the past) and to this area in android devices (as i was quite pleased with the Os as is on previous devices)
thank you for your time, and keep being a great community
any help is appreciated

today i solved this problem with the help of Olberd and Chesterr
First i flashed to Generic Euro Rom from this thread
using Flashtool
then i rooted the phone using EasyRoot V8(check if your device works with it in it's current state)
then i installed SuperSU
then i installed Nut's Dual Recovery(locked) [you can probably check for a newer version and or change to an unlocked bootloader version]
then i flashed the radio drivers:
for the L50t (given to me by Olberd): Here
for the L50u (made by me using Olberd's files as a base*): Here
(put the driver zip on the root folder of the phone, restart and press the volume down button when the phone vibrates, untill the blue led lights, navigate to "flash zip.." and choose the driver zip)
now both the phone and the sim work, so far everything works fine ill update if there are any issues with the phone.
thanks everyone for your time and help!
*: take any of these 2 zip files and put your current original firmware's radio drivers - i used a root browser on the original firmware to get the radio drivers (copied them to a folder i can access normally on the phone) [search for the files you see in the zip].
NOTE : Use the drivers suitable for your phone, although they work on both phones they cause weird shutting down issues when installed on the wrong phone
Update : i checked all the links and wrote notes about EasyRoot , Nut's Duel Recovery and how to make the flashable zip file . i'm sorry but i cannot help with newer problems because i dont have this phone anymore as i posted before. i got some PMs and emails from sony support forum and im redirecting people here.
Update 2: apparently the google drive link became locked due to some google's change, so i updated the link so its downloadable again.

If your z2 is 2.2mm taller then it is the L50t China Mobile Model, The L50t uses TD LTE for 4G, the 3G is locked to China Mobile, but roaming with China Mobile Sim card is fine, it means you can only use China Mobile Sim card if you travel outside China. You can try to buy a unlock code, but only 3G will work, 4G LTE will never work unless you are in China.

Emma actually works. You need to copy the customization file when you initially extracted the zip, into the installation directory.
It was something that I actually missed too and there is a guide on Sony which tells you that. Once you copy that, Emma will work.

Have you found an uncensored firmware which works on the L50U yet?
BTW, its not the SIM that is disabled, its the whole GSM/UMTS/LTE radio functionality that gets disabled. My phone keeps telling me its in Airplane mode when its not. Also its confused about where the covers are for SIM/charger/microSD and keeps telling me I've left one open when I haven't.
Does anyone have the blob_fs files from C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony Mobile\Update Service\db\13740270\blob_fs starting FILE_ which you would get if you upgraded a real model D6503 to 17.1.1.A.0.402 as I'd like to try rebuilding the FTF but specifying model L50U in the build process to see if that would work?
If you have the blob_fs files for building the Generic FTF, then please post them here?
TIA

yea, the sim is unlocked by all means but it wont work on any other rom (i flashed a few : RU and UK unbranded ) both work fine except the SIM. (as far as i noticed everything else worked fine)
i posted on sony's support forum and got no help really.
also posted Here but nobody could help me
i got the "official" rom for l50u from when i updated it, i just have really bad upload rate and i saw no interest in it - i can upload it for you but it may take some time.(i also still has the FILEs )
i also tried flashing combination of roms (excluding things on the list) but that didn't work, and the new easy easy root didn't work on the l50u as well
i figured the only thing i could do is customize a rom like CyanogenMod using this? (their link is broken but if you change "other" to "copylefts" it works)
but i currently don't have the knowledge and more importantly the time and patience : |
a friend also took it to an official sony retailer but he couldn't do anything about it and also said the warranty is voided as i unlocked the boot loader before there was a way to back up the drm keys)
so tell me what you think and need from me and ill upload it for you.
thanks for your time and have a great weekend.
I am having the same issue with l50t phone, I was unable to get google apps to work on the china rom, and reading the forms they say it needed to be rooted to make changes to the host file.
I use doomlords "Z2_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-438-v05" after unlocking the bootloader, but that stopped my wifi from working. Mobile network still worked though.
Then I tried using cyanogenmod but had no service.
Finally I flashed it using "Canada - unbranded - 1281-9709" (I didn't back up the original) and still no service.
I have checked the IMEI number and it is still there.
Have you or anyone out there have an answer? Please and thank you

Unfortunately, I need help from those millions of people with a standard D6503 model, not us few who have the L50u and L50t models.
*YOU* reading this with a D6503 model - Please can you go to re-upgrade your working 17.1.1.A.0.402 firmware (no need to go ahead with the upgrade in reality) and send us the blob_fs files from C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony Mobile\Update Service\db ?
I'd really like to know if Flashtool can decrypt your D6503 blob_fs files and make a working L50u FTF from them.
Thanks.
Maybe someone can help me get going to get the SIM working.
What I've found is that the radio is turned off.
Dialed *#*#4636#*#*, but am unable to turn on the radio or select radio band (get "set [usa band] unsuccessful")
Also could not select preferred network type. I also can't change this under network mode in mobile network settings.
Please help me to figure how I can get network service.

Hi Pitzmans, how did you solve it?
Have you got the radio to work with a non-Chinese flash? or have you found a way to unlock the Chinese OS so we can get apps from Google Play store?

well yes, you can read the issue i had in the quote on the first post.
when i flashed to other roms Google services worked (search, gmail, play store and i guess the rest too but i don't use them) but the sim did not.
so this method flashes a stock rom and installs the radios drivers basically.

hi guys,
i am in a bit of a trouble as after waiting for a long time for MM to be released for honor 5x in my country Pakistan but there wasn't any thing to hope for so i decided to flash manually and choose a MM file but when i put the update.app in dload folder and attempted to force flash it came back with update failed error after some reading on xda and other forums i found out that the update package was not of my region, it was European with with Denmark association. so i changed my region to mts/by (Belarus) and modified the custom.bin file in accord thinking that i would change the region back to Pakistan after up-gradation (poor me ). the update process then went smoothly and my 5x rebooted but right after that some thing strange happened.
the boot screen went green with red and blue boxes and i was frightened that i might bricked my device but after some time it shows the honor logo and setup process started.
secondly my sim card seemed to be not registered and required puk code. i dismissed the message and went on with the process. now my sim is not registering with the network.
also there is a massive battery drain even i didn't install any app.
the overall look and feel is not changed very much and also the performance is laggy.
Thing is that now i wanted to downgrade it to lollipop. and totally clueless what to do here.
i tried (Honor 5X_Firmware_KIW-L21_Android 5.1_EMUI 3.1_C432B140_United Kingdom_Channel-Others ) by putting update.app and force flashing it but the update got stuck a 5% and after 10 to 15 minutes it restarts.
please help me out, i am totally confused here
Edit: my device model is KIW-L21 but after upgradation to MM it changed to KIW-AL10.
Build number is KIW-L21C432B330

I have tried to look for an MM for middle East but could not find it. The only solution for you imho is to flash MM for middle east.
Another way is to unlock bootloader and manually downgrade to emui 5.1 by flashing image files.
MM for middle east is available, clsA uploaded it

Well thank you but please elaborate. What do you mean by change my phone to original specification?? Are you referring to change my region or any thing else? Idk how to change region on MM and my device is not rooted. I tried to unlock its bootloader but the captcha code is not appearing in emui english website. I also tried the chinese web but it is not accepting my entered captcha saying i have not entered correct code. I tried many times but this whole unlock thing is driving me crazy. I used three different laptops,three different browsers and also tried it on mobile browser but the same thing happened again and again.
So whats your opinion in this matter, and please forgive my noobness

First of all, you are not a noob buddy. Only experienced users try this stuff. The problem is that Huawei/emui is easily messed up. Well, we learn from our mistakes.
I meant, you should change the region back to middle east. I never tried to change the region of my phones so can not help you there. Sorry for that...
The captcha code problem is faced by tons of users and everybody takes a different approach to solve it. I used Microsoft edge on win10 and never faced the captcha problem. You can mail Huawei customer care with serial, IMEI and device id and state that you are facing captcha problem. May be they will provide you the code.
If you can not change the region then alas! You are in more trouble than I thought.
I am on limited mobile data these days, if that was not the case, I would have downloaded a transition package for any other Huawei device (preferably honor6 or 7 as these are my devices) and would have used Huawei update extractor to see what partitions are they flashing for a rollback.
(Advised by DigiGoon to do this)
That would have allowed me to specify which partitions you should flash to rollback to LP to change your region again but that's all wishful thinking for the time being.
By the way, did you edit build.prop to change region?

Thank you so much for bearing with me and for such a detailed opinion. i replaced the oem.info file for EU by going into /dev/block/platform/hi-mci.0/by-name/ and also edited the Custom.bin file in Device/data/ and put mts/by (EU region value) text and cleared the previous text which was hw/meafnaf (PK region value).
one more thing, now when i dial the string *#*#2846579#*#* to check country/vendor info, vendor is showed as "hw" and country is "default".

My build number is now L21C432B140
Model number is shown as unknown.
I tried to unlock bootloader but my current product id is somehow not matching with my device S/N & with imei 1 or 2 mentioned on the side of my phone's box. so no help there.

Well, to get your original device id, head to the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7/general/bricked-honor-7-honor-6-id-t3468333/page1
I apologize for KitKat instead of LP. My bad, I should have checked in detail.
Try to unlock bootloader and root the device as i am running out of options until the region is back and as for IMEI, head to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/canvas-a1/general/fix-imei-perfect-fix-android-imei-t2943567
And make sure the file you are using is the one you downloaded for your specific model.
Hope, any of this helps you.
What about battery drain and lags? If they disappeared and firmware is working fine, may be just restoring IMEI would be enough.

First of all thanks for your continued and kind assistance.
The thread you mentioned for imei is for mtk users only.
And yes i got my device id and the unlock code too but when i tried to unlock the boot-loader the command came back with wrong unlock code and failed.
i think my phone internal specification (imei and model number is missing) which i changed somehow and unintentionally is causing the problem. i tried but couldn't find any method for Qcom imei changing.
battery now is not draining like before but lag is still there.
So despite all your help(which i deeply appreciate), i am back to square one.

You may wish to have a look at the following page:
search the web for "Huawei Bricked phone repair guide with DC Phoenix" (sorry for not posting the link as I'm not sure it's allowed by these forums)
It's something that I haven't tried myself, but on that page, if you look at Method 2 Step 3, they're describing a possible (paid) solution to restore your missing details. I should caution the following though:
1. My antivirus flags the link in Method 2, Step 3 as UNSAFE, that could be because of what it does (changing IMEI, etc...) or maybe because the linked page/software is actually unsafe. You should exercise your own judgement there.
2. It's a paid solution
3. You may have to go through all the described steps before you attempt to repair your IMEI and other attributes.
I have used method 2 to un-brick an Ascend Mate 7 successfully, but that device had not lost its IMEI in the process, so I did not have to go through step 3 (paid 15 Euros for DC-Unlocker credits to flash the site's own recovery, nothing else I had tried would work).
The alternative would be, as other members have suggested, is to take it to a service center if that is an option for you. Hopefully someone here can suggest a better (and free) solution that you can apply directly instead of the above.
Hello guys, i have a big problem on that device, the version is PLK-L01C10B140
After i put the sim on slot1 or slot2 (also if the device is turned on), the phone ask me to insert pin
until is is ok
so need to reboot (because above the screen i have the signal with a x.
after reboot system know the sim is inside but i cant do nothing
if i try to activate sim not work...and also, when the device reboot, not need to ask me again the pin of the sim??
try a different sim, check the basebands from youre carrier are supported by the phone
i try different sim but not work. can i change the baseband?
When did the problem showed up?
Are your rooted/Xposed? If yes, please try to get the phone fully stocked and test it. I suggest you to flash original firmware.
Not root. Original fw. Also cant find fw for mine version

It will not work because the region is different (C10/C432).
For your device, try this one:

Hi, I've got the same problem, I insert my sim card into the phone, phone ask me Pin code but he doesn't detect mobile network.
i've sent my phone to After Sales Services, they said me for them the only problem on my phone was my Broken screenbut nothing about network, they've repaired my phone and send me back.
I received it yesterday but the problem still the same, I insert my sim and mobile network isn't detected.
During 4/5 months all works great so i'm thinking the problem comes from phone or android firmware.
Build : C432B380
EMUI : 4.0.1
Android 6.0
Could someone help me please ?
Phone displays "Network Locked SIM Card" Inserted after flashing a stock firmware
I recently uninstalled Magisk, and was able to only boot into download mode after. So, I downloaded a stock firmware for my s9+ 965f and flashed it through odin (using AP,BL, CP, CSC(didnt select HOME CSC). But after rebooting, the phone displays "Invalid SIM. Network Locked SIM Card Inserted".
It asks for PUK code to unlock the phone and the cellular service alone is not working now. My phone is already region unlocked and I have been using it for the past 8 months. Has anybody got this issue and any suggestions on how to solve it?
Previous OS: soldierx rom for 965f v12 on Oreo
What I did,
i) uninstall all modules in magisk,
ii) uninstall magisk,
iii) phone auto-reboot
iv) Now phone stuck in download mode. Cannot boot it
v) downloaded stock firmware G965FXXU2BRGA
vi) flashed through Odin(AP,BL,CP,CSC)
vii) Phone completely formatted and boots up.
"Error:Invalid SIM card inserted. Network Locked SIM card detected "
I am now being asked for PUK code or cellular service wont work
You need to contact your carrier for PUK code, its protective measure against too many wrong PIN attempts on specific SIM. Can't fix that with any flashing.

This is where the problem is. You put any sim card in that phone, you get the same error. The sim card works fine if I put in any other phone. I am not sure but unistalling Magisk has caused "SIM Card Read Error" in my S9+. I even upgraded to Pie from Oreo and flashed 3 different stock firmwares but the sim card error exists.
@topjohnwu
I would appreciate if you can help me on this. Not sure how to fix the issue
Looking up the error message itself points to some sort of network/carrier lock. If I am reading regional lock and carrier lock definitions correctly the two are not the same..
Did you have the phone network unlocked or was it network unlocked when you had root installed? If the device was network unlocked when it was rooted and you flashed back to stock (which removes root) this might explain what is going on...

This is an unlocked phone. I had magisk installed and when trying to uninstall it to upgrade to latest magisk, the device wont boot except download mode. So, I downloaded stock firmware and flashed it. Once I boot up with the new stock firmware, I get this error
There is some sort of lock on the phone, which is why your being asked for the code.
I think you should definetly try was what was suggested above.. trying to contact the carrier and see if they can give you the PUK code. If I recall correctly you get a few tries to enter it correctly before it won't let you anymore (and it might lock the phone up good or damage the sim)
I'm having a similar issue on a Verizon A50. Any progress?

depending on what method was used to unlock it, its likely no longer unlocked. some sellers of unlock codes neglect to mention that part. im betting its locked again
Good day
There's a similar thread open that I dont want to hijack. I would appreciate suggestions to get the network side of the device working again. After some reading I think I messed up NVdata by using format all on spflash.
I have the:
Redmi 10 2022 (I believe it is selenes)
Model 22011119UY
Original firmware was 12.5.2.0 RKUZAVC (Note this is the South African market (ZA) with carrier locked to Vodacom.
Unlocked bootloader, stock recovery, able to access fastboot.
I flashed vbmeta, boot and recovery images to install custom firmware. Originally the device was bootlooping with no access to fastboot or recovery. I bypassed the secureboot and managed to flash selene V12.5.20.0.RKUMIXM (global) with SPFlash, after which I changed the blank IMEI numbers back to those on my box. I can now access fastboot and recovery. The device states (NV data corrupt) at the recovery page and wont boot into system.
After this I installed the China ROM for the selenes (V12.5.2.0.RKUCNXM). The phone boots into system fine, but doesnt detect any simcards or the IMEI numbers. ENG rom sees the IMEI numbers but has no signal.
Is the issue perhaps that you need the original firmware for it to function? I dont have a backup of the original firmware and it looks like it is specific to the phone in this country.
Thanks
Edit 1:
V12.5.2.0 RKUCNXM (CHina) doesn't detect SIMS
V12.5.2.0 RKUEUXM (EU) doesn't flash at all with SP flash (fails after 100% DA right at the beginning)
V12.5.9.0 RKUINXM (India for 10 Prime) keeps rebooting after a few seconds in MIUI setup screen)

This kind of problem also happened to me. I tried to update my Redmi note 10 sunny (Global) via MiFlash from 12.0.2.0 to 13.0.10.0 but after the flash my phone always reboot back to recovery and says "NV Data is corrupted" . So I had to flash that old 12.0.2.0 version to get my phone working again.
