I buy phone from alixp and sc in my country tell me that they cant update my honor
Maybe you know other method to update
Change your location to China and clear cache memory of your system update app then try again.

Still no update
Go to hicare and change your region to China, reboot your phone clear cache memory and open hicare and click on update it should show u an update and ask u to register for it so you can see it in systems update

Unfortunately, no change. Maybe I am doing something wrong. At least that had the effect that I now have access to all the Chinese Apps on the Huawei App store

I did, tried the chinese hicare as well, no change, used a vpn as well (in that case it just got stuck)
I have the same phone and the same problem. It was just a bad buy and we have to admit defeat: stuck on old Android, no way to unlock bootloader, can't get rid of Chinese bloatware, forcefully upgrading will break Google services. I ended up accepting defeat and bought another phone.

How you update to 9.1?
Also stuck, but learnt something new
I got the same model from my mom after I asked her to grab me one on her trip to China. It immediately upgraded to to EMUI 9 when I got it but (I'm in Canada btw) but I realized no google services so i opted to downgrade. When I heard 9.1 allows for android I tried upgrading again but no luck, I've tried everything mentioned in this thread so far.
I'm a bit new to this but could the firmware that HiSuite flashed unto the device when downgrading be that of another model because my device is now showing as JKM-Al00b instead of JSN-Al00a. The former is the model for Huawei Enjoy 9 plus, which is a very similar device. Can anyone confirm this on their own device?And would this affect the update check?

Please don't hijack this thread with a different problem, make a new thread instead
Sorry about that. It's actually a similar issue I felt was worth mentioning.
i think the only solution is to send the phone to china where i bought it to install me a Global rom, ask the seller and he says it can cost only $ 10.
Any news on this?
I'm stuck on this too
I contacted Chinese Huawei support about not being able to upgrade, they consulted a technician who pointed the finger at me having installed Google on my honor 8x al00. Can anyone confirm deleting all google apps including gms solves being stuck on emui 8?

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
Phone's Details :

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.

this is the l50u model of china unicom and im currently in the middle east and the my sim works on the device, i dont think you read through the whole thing :S

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.
Help needed !

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.

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?

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.

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".

Try this thread to downgrade from MM to LP.

Hope it works for you.
If it goes well, root, change region and flash middle Eastern MM.
About *#*#2846579#*#*, I will apologize again as i can not help you there.

Tried it, and now my phone is on KK instead of LP. also lost my imei
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, so as described in the title it all started when i wanted to unlock bootloader unofficially, im not a newbie but didn't expect Xiaomi to act like samsung in terms of making it a big headache to unlock the device...
anyway the unofficial method consist of flashing MIUI 7.1.8.0 while i was on 8.0.x.x if im not mistaken
I had my sim in my main phone in the process so im not really sure when did i basically lose the IMEI, baseband, MAC address all these things but i discovered that i lost them and spent like 2 weeks searching and tryingdifferent tutorials (i have like 50 bookmarks and maybe downloaded like 30GB worth of data!!)
Final/Current situation:
IMEI1 and IMEI2 recovered --> can log in to Mi account
MAC address recovered --> can connect to wifi
Service NOT recovered, phone detect the sim, it shows the sim number in settings, even the access points are read from the sim and shown in the Access Point area but whatever i do the sim card shows No service
last thing i did is i flashed MIUI9 beta official, locked bootloader, stock recovery...
I hope this thread get some attention for me and many others as well...ready to answer any extra clarifications
It's Redmi Note 3 Special Edition (SE)
[Product Code is 2015161 which is for kenzo according to thsi http://en.miui.com/thread-449310-1-1.html]
Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 CPU
Dual SIM

Hello, sorry for disappearing its just that i spent so much time trying to fix it and then i realize that the phone is actually kate not kenzo....honestly i dont know where to go from here, i dont even know what rom there is on my phone right now...all i know is that its not booting as usual and doesnt have custom recovery. i will try to at least make it boot today so hopefully ill get some support from you guys. ill try to install twrp recovery and flash LineageOS 14.1
ok so i actually restored a backup i made before and im now on resurrction remix 7.1.2 with everything working except data
I have the same problem.
I try to flash new kate qcn file and restore imeis.
I try to flash some firmwares.
I only have network sigal in last miui9 developer for note 3 pro se (kate). No network on nougat and oreo.
I am at build version 8.2.0.103(C636patch01). Isn't this build a little bit far behind? I see people with build version .133 and .140 any idea how am I supposed to receive the updates? From Malaysia btw
There is a Huawei schedule for releasing the updates all over the world: wait and be patient.
P..S: Never expose your IMEI to anybody, ever!

Seems no firmware is available for this model yet. nothing on FF. you may need to contact Huawei service center and they will be able to provide more information/update in this regard. try getting hold of their chat support in your region or of service center is easily accessible, you may try visit them and they can update if available any.
Download and install HiSuite from Huawei, connect your phone to the PC and allow HiSuite to use the HDB in phone settings, once the program detects your phone, verify in the program if there are updates. If there is not, it's because your model does not have updates.

I tried this first hand, doesn't work huhu.
There's not any firmware for your model, for now
I had this issue, I was stuck on November patch, Never received 1 update since receiving the phone, I found this odd so just today connected to HiSuite and there are updates, for some reason I am not receiving OTA updates.

I have an AT&T Samsung S9+. OTA says that I'm already up to date and Samsung Smart Switch says that I'm already up to date too.
I've decided to use SamFirm to download my firmware and update it using Odin.
Here are my statistics:
settings > about > software information > service provider SW ver. it says ATT/ATT/ATT...
My model is SM-G965U.
- I don't know what to put for my Region on the SamFirm tool. Do I put ATT?
- If I do go ahead w/this firmware update will it erase all the data on my phone? I just want to update to Android Pie.
- My Samsung S9+ is AT&T unlocked and I'm now on Metro-PCS, will this mess up my unlocked status and what about affect my Metro-PCS status?
- I heard that using Odin can easily brick your phone, are there ways of preventing that from happening?
Please help thanks!

The First Thing You Need To Do Is.... READ, READ AND READ SOME MORE..
At this device's price point.. you don't want an S9+ paperweight.
Please.. learn what you are doing before you do it.. you should feel VERY comfortable with Odin before pulling the trigger..
Go Watch A Bunch Of YouTube's On The Subject.
While you are doing that.. if you are not going to be a "Paid Member" over at Sammobile, you need to start downloading the "USA (AT&T) version of software. I'm doing this as I type this and it takes over 3 hours to complete if you do not sign up and pay a member fee.
If you want your device to have metroPCS features.. you need to flash the U.S.C. software ( What I use on my Unlocked version ) without your sim installed.. reboot.. and it'll ask you to insert your carrier's sim and it will set things up according to that particular sim.. ( Like Metro's Wi-Fi Calling ).
It's strange.. I have the U.S.A. Unlocked Version (U1) and the device is saying it's "Up To Date" with CSA8 software installed.. So, I'm going to just flash F1 and call it a day..
Take Your Time.. And Good Luck!
A Suggestion..

If you have not already flashed anything... my advice would be to download the "USC U1" July 8th F1 software and install that.
Leave your Sim Out of your phone during the flash.. Just disconnect once you get a green "Pass!" and let it reboot.. ( it will take some extra time ) once it reboots.. you should get a message stating to "Insert Your Sim Card and Reboot" .
Being the Carrier-Free version of the software, It will set your device up with MetroPCS 's features... Done.
No need to worry about going with the ATT version... unless you are still using some of it's bloatware..
