Where are OTA updates stored? - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

I really need to delete the 3 branding OTA that has just dropped to my phone but can't find the folder. Is it even accessable?

I'm sure the way i did it was went into apps then deleted the data and cache in the software update app. Then rebooted.

You need to know the facts before you speak
You shouldn't have took that update. That update sucks major. Now I can't move music to my SD card because Google or Verizon close the write permission so the only way to get my music on my card is to use a computer. My phone is always buggy and apps always forcing close. It a nightmare because they are trying to make SD cards useless

screen rotation
Since the nk1 update, Ive noticed that my auto screen rotate doesn't work. I was on YouTube and turned my phone, and it wouldn't turn. So I tried other apps and it doesn't work.

Great!
Any changes to how WiFi tethering works? I don't have this phone, but a family member was recently updated from stock NC4 to NK1 and says she can no longer tether. The person doesn't need root, but tethering is crucial.
Does foxfi still work with this new update

Assuming you aren't rooted and are 100% stock (If not... do not allow this to install. it will fail.)
Sit back and wait.
It will notify you when the download is finished.
If it doesn't download then you are likely behind a firewall which could be posing problems.
On the surface there doesn't appear to be an issue with what you are showing.

I had a similar issue occur. I was on 5.0.1 and couldn't upgrade 5.0.2 because it would givcn an error during the upgrade process (but rebooted back to 5.0.1 w/o issue).
So I flashed the 5.1.1 factor image and shortly after I got the 5.0.2 update screen again (even though I am on 5.1.1 now). Then then it disappeard and refreshed to say my device is up to date.

Just flash each image with fastboot, don't use the flash-all.bat. You won't lose any data.

Which twrp version on 7.1.1?

I got the dev preview going. Unlocked bootloader. Tried to flash twrp 3.0.2-2 through fastboot commands. Looked like it went well but when I try and boot into recovery I got the droid with red triangle.
Am I using the right version or doing it wrong? Also when I get twrp up and going, what's the best root file to flash? I wanna pixelize my 6p.
Thanks !!

So I had a similar issue. I flashed the OTA and forgot to flash SU before the reboot. This is why you can not get TWRP to flash. To fix this use Wug's tool kit found here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/development/toolkit-wugs-nexus-root-toolkit-v2-1-0-t3258493.
In stall tool kit on PC and when prompted for android version select ANY, should be the last choice on the list (don't select the version you have i.e 7.0, 7.0 etc). Then click root with TWRP and wait for it to go through the process. Now you will have TWRP working and SU in stalled. It will install the latest versions of both, so no worries there.
Good luck!

Thanks for the response. I've used wugfrsh for years. When I try to use it this time it reboots to bootloader fine but when it says the device is booting temporarily into twrp the phone never does it. It just stays in BL screen.
Edit...think I got it. Thanks for your help. Needed to change to "any build".
If you dont mind. Did you get all the pixel mods running? Assist, camera, etc? Which method did you follow? I see multiple methods available with some issues here and there.
Thanks again.

Did you select the any version of android? That is odd, it worked fine for me on 7.0 and 7.1.1. Did you run it as admin? Try tuning off you Anit-virus, in the past that interfered for me unlocking HTC bootlodaers
Perhaps a different tool kit would work for you.

Yes, I have the camera working. Got it from the app thread, as well as the launcher. For assistant to work I just did the build prop edit.
Find: ro.product.model=Nexus 6P and change it to
ro.product.model=Pixel XL
Then add this line:
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
save and reboot. Long press home and set it up.
Here for apps http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/themes-apps/pixel-skin-apps-t3486186
For me, the round icons did not work so well.

Boot ani is good,deleted the stock one and just copy and paste into system>media> set permissions and reboot.
In the app thread there is a black version of the boot ani as well, I prefer the stock white
Oh, don't forget the live wallpaper apk, its worth it. I like the globe the best, it moves according to the time of day. its sweet.
Yea. I'm in good shape now. Found a badass camera app with zero shutter lag. Everything else is now totally pixelized. Can't wait to see how battery compares to a pixel thanks for all the help.
Still using my s7 while the pixel 6p charges.

Well if you downgrade, a full wipe would be in order. I for one had fc's on 7.1.1. I did a full wipe and clean install of the system image. All is well now except for amazon app store. But this is no surprise as it did this with the 7.0 preview as well, I can live with this. It will be updated soon enough.
You want unofficial twrp 3.0.2-3. See this thread for details and a download link.

You just have to be careful of what you disable. BK has one section that's just bloat and should be okay but if you just go and randomly disable services some need the others to work.

To apply it you have to go to the themes app that came with the phone. Them click on the tab that says "me" on the bottom right, then click customize and click on text and your downloaded font should be in there.
