Could anyone confirm that they received the OTA update on an Oppomart Chinese A2001 which Oppomart converted to Oxygen OS without manually downloading?

I bought from them but it came with spamware on it so flashed a clean rom on it, I was waiting for the ota but got fed up so flashed the 1.1gb update and this left all my data intact, all good.
Do you have spamware ? pop up apps like du booster etc ?
No. I have no spamware on mine.

Hi!
Mine came with Hydrogne OS and I flashed Oxygen OS on the same after I received the handset.
I got the OTA autmatically yesterday itself
Happy to report I too got mine automatically. I am in Australia on Telstra. Glad to see the Oppomart phone seems to be treated like the official international version.

You need to flash the full 1.1gb rom, the smaller patch seems to fail for everyone, I did this and all data was saved.

Hello. Received my Oneplus 2 from china yesterday with Oxygen OS 2. Yes some pre installed apps like du booster were on the screen. So this is like a hacked firmware? What should i do. Can i upgrade to global version instead of chinese. I would really prefer to get update via OTA. What should i do. I am kind of new to all these so i would really appreciate your help on this. Thanks a lot.
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oneplus-2-stock-rom-collection-updated-27-08.347627/ ->go there and install the full rom oxygenos 2.1 via recovery (install from sd card after you have download this); after install (no data was wiped out), you will have a clean rom on oxygenos 2.1 (you can even download the upgrade officialy). I had the same issue as you and now, everything is ok����

You don't need to be rooted , to get into recover turn off the phone then hold down the power button and volume down button at the same time, it will go to recovery just choose English and then flash from sd card, job done.
Hi everyone,
I've got my one plus 2 over oppomart. I can confirm that you get a lot of annoying software and some ads.
What I did was very easy for a novice user to put the officiel OXYGEN OS from one plus.
First of all, just bear in mind that it's very EASY
1: go here and download the last Oxygen OS available on: forums.oneplus.net/threads/oneplus-2-stock-rom-collection-updated-27-08.347627/ (in my case I took the 2.0.1)
2: connect your phone to your pc or mac (I'm using a mac and have installed a little software called "android file transfer" to see what is on my phone). Then, put the OxygenOS that you've just downloaded on your phone (not in a folder, just at the same level you see the other folder and data). Keep in mind that you'll have to put the ZIP file. Do not unzip it on your mac or pc.
3: Switch off your phone. Disconnect it from your computer. When the phone is off, push the volume down button and the power button and wait until you arrive on a nice screen. On this screen, select "english" then install from SD and you'll find your OxygenOS file. Then select it, then confirm the install.
Your phone is now running a clean and proper OxygenOS version
Hope this helped.
I would suggest all members who are importing from China please immediately do a clean wipe and then install the oxygen OS rather then doing it after few days.
NO RECOVERY NEEDED, just install from sd card
Does anyone know how to root the Chinese oneplus two?
I buy 3 weeks ago A2001 on Oppomart. Received by DHL after 2 days (Belgium). OTA proposed after some days 2.0.1 update and last week 2.0.2 without any problem. I asked oppomart before buying not program the phone before shipping because they propose to translate OS in French for me. I refuse so they send me a clean A2001. Working perfectly.

Flashing the official gingerbread in u8800 its irreversivel process, at least for now.
If you flash it you have to keep it as no way of going back.
If you root it using the only available method, bye bye!
Everytime you reboot the endless bootlooping starts and the only way to stop it is formatting data.
Which means everytime you reboot = bye bye all data and apps etc.
I think is something that its major importance and no one is mentioning this!!!!
I don't know, maybe I've been preaching to deaf ears or something...but...you can re-install the old ROM back, the CWM recovery won't work with the official GB - that much is true - but you will be able to downgrade to an official 2.2.2 (I used the B162) version with the regular update method (at least I was and everything is working just as normal as it used to).
So, irreversible - I don't think so
with the current CWM recovery - it's a no-go
edit: that being said, what works for me, doesn't necessarily work for everyone, so be careful and blame the guy in the mirror -not me, if it doesn't work for you. =)
I think Huawei says wrong here. I flashed 2.3 yesterday. After that, because of the haptic issue I flashed back to official 2.2. Only problem after the 2.2, recovery console had opened. I did factory reset there and phone started without a problem. Then, I had upgraded to 2.3 again. Still haptic don't vibrate. Other than, no problem here. Maybe, I will go back again to 2.2.
Well you are lucky then because you are the only one.
Perhaps what is saying in the official intructions that will be impossible to dowgread after this upgrade won't apply to you.
I have try it with at least 8/9 versions of official release and nothing works!!!!
what 2.2 version is that and you did it after or before rooting?
Have you tried with internal sd? I copied dload folder to internal and started the upgrade process from Storage-Upgrade Firmware. Where did your phone stuck?
Edit: I didn't root my phone. Waiting proper solution. I had used B138.
no, I'm using external SD.
now I'm downloading another official release to try to downgrade using another one...
this time is U8800 V100R001C17B162CUSTC17D001

Well, like I said, what works for me doesn't necessarily work for you.
Anyway, this is what I did and it worked, maybe it can help others.
0. Copy the original B162 ROM ("dload"-folder which has two files, UPDATE.APP AND UPDATE_CUST.APP) to the root of your SDCARD
1. Update to B162 by holding down +- keys while turning on the phone
2. After the first reboot, it's giving error messages for not being able to mount this and that...just ignore it and...
--> Wipe data / factory reset --> remove battery
3. Update the B162 again --> this time everything should go OK, if so, your phone is back to stock B162 and you're ready to use it or update a custom rom (just install Clockwork recovery like you used to and start from there)
The last point (3) may be unnecessary, but I did so just to make sure everything's ok.
Edit: OK, and I meant b162, not b160...

No point of using this official release if future customs will use the libs from this one.

And then there's the fact that the official gb is still beta, it's not supposed to work perfectly. But as long as the dev team here stays active, I think that I'm gonna stick with custom roms too.
ho my god.
didn't work.
is always booting into recovery
I am stuck here also (
Nothing worked
I tried clockwork recovery - it doesnt get to. It is just rebooting.
I tried with various dload UPDATE.IMG's (GB Overseas, GB orig chinese,B162,B138) nothing is working - stucked in "Step 1/2 Unpacking" window forever.
Anyone has solution for this ?

I have just flashed with new U8800V100R001C00B517G001(Beta1.0)(Overseas Normal)(Gingerbread) but after flashing I kept waiting for start my phone. I restasted many times but same, then I format data its worked and when restarted again it goes in same condition any help ?
until flash disk is writable and it is - there will always be way to go back to old versions it just files.. like reinstalling windows on your pc.
Since the new Rom is public I have read all posts about it here. Maybe I had lucky, or simple due it without messing with the files.
Yesterday I made the upgrade to the new rom, directly from the last Oxigen version, without downgrade to 2.2. I simply create the dload folder on SD card, put there de update file, boot with +- Power, and chose upgrade from SD card.
After step 2 I reboot the phone a install step 3 upgrade. Everything as installed fine, no boot loops, nothing...
Also the root method decribed in this forum as work on first time.
24 hours after the upgrade, and some reboots to test, I never se the boot loops, and the phone is working well.
The new ROM, even in beta stage, to me is a great improvement.
Well either you were lucky or me and the majority were unlucky.
But issues only start to happens when rooting.
So that you can see it fried me the 1 USB cable. This cable is only good to charge the battery now....
Also, ****ed the device USB storage MOUNT.
I connect it to the computer and the computer sees it as a CD drive not allowing any changes.
Also when press the button to mount the USB on the device it never gets mounted and gives the messages that the SD can now be removed.
So I have put this issue many times but up to the moment no one even reply to help.
From Huawei Russia:

Download
The same Official B141 with embedded SuperSU
Download
The embedded SU version will work only with the force update (three buttons) method; after installation it will ask to update the SU binary when you open it, update and restart.
Source
Lollipop.?
Edit: never mind, it's kitkat
First impression: (I did a local update)
1- smoother than the B137 rom
2- Camera improved than B137
3- Battery usage is good as B130 & B120
Root procedure remain the same as before?
Good to know.. 2 maybe stupid questions.. : I'll just flash it from Recovery? And root? English language as well right? Thanks

Same question :S
I guess I've got the same question. I'm on 137. I've put this on my internal SD card as well as my ext SD card and went into update mode. It does the usual and looks like its updating but at around 90%-95% it just sit frozen for hours. When I unplug and reboot I'm still on 137 with no changes. I've also put this in the download folder under the Hauwei systemx86 folder that the suite software created and tried restoring my device with it. The software doesn't seem to find this package as a restore. I guess I'm gonna let the PC suite software make a backup and see what it names it and just rename this package to whatever it names my backup then try restoring with it. I'll get back to ya with the results. If you have any other advice I sure could use it. Cuz no way in hell I'm porting or building a ROM without a custom recovery.

I was on 137 and simply copied update.app file into DLOAD folder of the SD and it worked like a charm.
I suggest you to re-download the (big) update.app file, directly from Huawei website (russian) and linked in the post above.
i did the same as above and it worked for me
OK. I just didn't know what folder it was supposed to go in. But I did download the one with SuperSU built in and put it in SDcard/DLoad then went to Settings/Updater/Local. And flashed it like that and I'm all good now. I'm on the 141 update with Root and SuperSU was built in. Now,......is it safe for me to use flashify or some other apk to install CWM even though I have not unlocked the boot loader yet? I sound like such a noob (which I'm not its just this phone and its root/boot loader/ recovery methods are so different coming from LG, Samsung, and Moto)? Just trying to be cautious.
Does the force update (three button) method completely wipe the device?

Thanks for the note, but either there is an issue with the update or the file got corrupted on the download. I flashed it and emui went through the update process, rebooted and then said my SD card was corrupt and to format it.
I have a 128GB card full of music TBU and saved ROMs that I did not want to lose. Went back via TWRP to previous and no damaged SD card and all is well.
Might have been the file was corrupted but just be caareful and always backup before you make any changes.
So nice of their support site to be down...

What he said.
I'm hoping it's nothing more than a VoLTE update that LOS maintainers warn against anyway, if there's actually no one to further explain what it is
received this B351 update over B331, also did factory reset, GUI lag seems gone, not noticing new feature
my kiwi-L24 got re-flashed today, it is weird that this B351 update is no longer available from B331's update check
searched on internet, there is news about "honor 5c" getting a B351 nougat update
This came up on one of the 5X's that I have. Updated and forgot to put back stock recovery. Don't be like me and forget to do that. Now it won't work properly and I can't get to start any apps to try and fix it. I can put back TWRP and wipe it, but I don't want to lose my data. I also have that problem now where it keeps telling that the SD card is corrupted. I backed up the data and scrubbed the card in the phone but it keeps coming back with the same thing.
If someone did an actual successful update properly (with stock recovery) then please update and say if everything is working. If not, I'm going to have to find some way to backup the data and then scrub it.
*EDIT*
I believe something like this happened to me before. I was on B151 and went to B331 with TWRP installed by accident. What happened was that the OS was still running EMUI 3.1 but the build was saying B331. After fighting with it (and community support) I managed to get it to B331 fully and EMUI 4.0 - since then and a few custom ROMs I'm back on B151 EMUI 3.1 due to stability. Games and some apps just didn't work on the new one. The second phone was on B331 fully though - then I made the same mistake and it went to B351. This time though, the phone seems screwed. No apps will load. I can get into settings and the file manager, but no Titanium Backup and no Flashify. Going to put back TWRP and try to flash GAPPS and see if it will help me get into Play Store. From there I'll try to reinstall Flashify and flash the ZIP of the update. Will post back once done.
*EDIT*
Well that didn't work. Even after going back and trying to root the device again - then checking the option for it to not detect the dirty flash - still didn't work. Kept complaining that stock apps are already present.
I'm going to try and get some files off the device, but keep having issues. Not sure why. May just have to scrub. Will update again.
*EDIT*
With TWRP on I used "ADB PULL" to get certain files from the root system which I couldn't access otherwise for some reason. Then copied the other things (photos and such) and will now be using the UPDATE.APP to get it working. For this I formatted the SD from within TWRP and created the DLOAD folder (with no caps - so that's dload - but I'm not sure if it matters) and will be copying the UPDATE.APP. Not sure which version yet, because there was some problem with one I had downloaded before. So I need to double-check and re-download.
*EDIT*
So I've successfully flashed the UPDATE.APP from the SD card (same one the phone was claiming is corrupted). Just for reference, here is the file information and hashes.

The file name may be different, but as long as you got the right one you should be OK. If you have issues when copied to an SD card - verify that the file on the SD card has the correct hashes. To make it faster use CRC32. For more surety, use MD5. You can get a tool like WinMD5 to check. It's free.
So now that it's done, I'm going to set it up as a new phone and wait to see if the update comes back on. If it does, I'll get it down and upload the B351 recovery. After that I'll need to remember that I have to put back the stock recovery before running any updates. Flashify FTW.
BTW - during the initial setup after connecting to wireless it came back with the update. Pics to follow.

So the files are uploading to the folder. The screenshot is attached. Had one issue where after the update I couldn't get back into the phone. Had to wipe/factory reset. I've used FASTBOOT BOOT TWRP.IMG to take the backups of the BOOT and RECOVERY. Hopefully one of the gurus can use that and give the IMG files. I'm going to try root and get FLASHIFY to backup the stock recovery and add to the folder.

I don't really like to do double replies, but I guess for ease of finding the info it's better this way. Unless a mod thinks differently and wants to merge all the info.

This contains TWRP backups of the recovery and boot images. There's also a file called KIW-L24-B351 which was created with Flashify. I assume you can add the IMG extension to it and flash as needed.
Basically I had this update run on another phone (my wife's) and it messed with the phone due to the recovery being TWRP and not stock. My fault - forgot to do that before handing the phone back to her. I believe it happened to me before but it never messed up the phone this way. Nothing would work except core apps like settings and the stock file manager. The Play Store wouldn't even open.
Anyways - back to factory with UPDATE.APP then run the automatic update from an OTA update on wireless, then FASTBOOT BOOT TWRP.IMG and capture the backups. Then flash SuperSU to get root. Then Flashify. Files are uploaded for your convenience.
Warning that during the initial OTA it took a while. And after it was done I couldn't get into the phone with the password. Had to factory wipe/reset again and setup again. Disable passwords just in case I guess. Hope this helps others - have fun.
No major differences. I haven't really used the stock OS6 but some things look a little different. Nothing major. Will see when she's using it if it lags or has improved memory and such. Not sure if I'll be able to test with apps that wouldn't run previously for me, but will see. Tested with TransDrone and it failed. Once SeedBox information is loaded it still crashes. Only happens on OS6 so I'm sticking with OS5 on mine. Does not happen with custom roms however (from what I recall - would have to check back).

Same here.
It had been too many months of the Honor 5X in the closet so i almost lost track what to do but what i did was revert all the way back to Stock ROM (had to flash an extracted/saved Recovery.IMG) and then do the UPDATE.APP from Dload complete and repeat on up to the current B351.
Of course lost Root but when ready can add that back too.
Yes the Honor 5X runs much smoother now than before plus that Battery Drain issue (Remember That?) where we had to dig deep to change 4 to 0 i think, well Battery Life is also greatly improved on mine.

So did anyone ever take a wack at this? I've done a lot of googling and haven't been able to find anything official off the support site about this update so I was wondering if it was legit or not? I know how the update zip suppose to work and how to make it work. Just wondering if anyone used this.

I tried to update as the previous user did using TWRP and got the corrupted SD card message. I then tried to go back to stock ROM. Went into bootloop.
Been having a hell of a time getting anything to work properly since.
So I was reading that the US beta launch was supposed to happen next month, but I just got an email from the FUT testing team about the rollout being tomorrow, March 15th. I signed up on that Goggle Forms sheet the day it was posted on XDA since I've been checking for news every hour it seems like.
Did anyone else get the email? I really hope it's the case that us Yanks are getting the update just days after the Spain/France/Italy/Germany beta rollout.
Yeah, I got the email too! Here's the email in full:
Hello FUT Testers,
We'd like to thank everyone that has chosen to participate in our newest FUT trial for the Android O. The update will be releasing tomorrow March 15!
It will be a staged rollout through out the day and everyone should have the update before the end of the week.
Here are the steps to take to see if the update is available:
1. Go to "Settings" and scroll to "System"
2. Select "System Update" and give it a few seconds run a quick scan
3. Hit "Check for Updates" option, if no update apears select top right menu option (looks like three dots) and hit "Download latest full package"
4. If successful please install update, if nothing shows up please wait a few hours before trying again
Please use this email address to provide us details of any issues or new features you might run into or like. We are looking forward to hearing from you all.
Thanks again for everyone that has participated in this release. We are looking forward to hearing all the feedback!
Thank you,
Honor FUT Team!

Super excited!
I received the email as well.
Sent from my BND-L24 using XDA Labs
Same, but I flashed TWRP. I'm concerned that this won't work, just like the previous update, unless we can 1. find a way to make a TWRP-flashable zip or offline version to sideload, 2. get the firmware already to reflash to stock and go from there.
Are ya'll in the same boat?

I didn't install TWRP on mine because I didn't see a reason with no functional ROMs available.
On a side not can someone explain why someone can't just factory reset and get a backup of the stock US ROM for everyone else?
I believe we haven't had any volunteers.
I got the email too awesome
I also got it :good:
I got it as well! Looking forward for oreo goodness tomorrow!

There appears to be several TWRP versions available in these forums for non-L24 variants. Can someone with an L24 confirm that they were successful in backing up and then later restoring their ROM? Which TWRP image did you use? Once this is confirmed, creating a backup of the stock ROM really shouldn't take that much effort.
Until then, I'm reluctant to flash one the TWRP images available. On some phones, one could use "fastboot boot <image>" (without any other undocumented parameters) to boot into a third party recovery such as TWRP without replacing the stock recovery. However, at least on MY L24, I receive a remote command failed error (with FRP and bootloader unlocked). Therefore, one can not easily make a backup of the stock recovery.
... And without stock recovery, you can not perform OTA updates because Huawei uses its own update.zip format. Judging by the screeshot from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75892852&postcount=55, it looks like that's exactly how they're rolling out the Oreo trial for the European variant. So let's hope the timeline for mid-March for releasing stock ROM and recovery is correct.
Just my luck, didn't get the email.... I signed up early, but no joy.

Would be great if someone with an L24 does a backup Rom. I flashed the OpenKirin ROM but need to go back to stock
Surprise everyone

Do you still get the orange security warning screen when you reboot? If so, follow the instructions about pressing Vol Up button, etc. to get into eRecovery. (Alternatively, try "adb reboot erecovery".) If eRecovery is still there, you would boot into a EMUI screen which supposedly allow you to download stock recovery and stock rom. (Another poster said that eRecovery won't work since Huawei hasn't released stock rom yet but it's worth trying.)

Thanks for the feedback. Did it manage to restore stock recovery though?

Not at all. Once it fails, there's no going any further than that
My phone was broken through rigorous device testing at work. Took ZTE a very long time but they finally delivered my repaired phone in November. Been extremely busy and transfered my life to a replacement Moto G5 but now I want to go back to my trusted ZTE...
...except I can't update my device. What they sent back to me was a device with the last installed update from Jan 2017. Now that's OK if I can just go and update it, but I can't. Servers are dead, and I don't have the time to go and start rooting/unlocking/installing Roms. And I think because of how old the last update is, apps like Android Auto aren't working properly with my car.
Would be nice if the US gov't played nice and just allowed ZTE to at least keep their servers up and running, but I have no control of that. Right now I'm at the point where I'm deciding on buying a Oneplus 6 if I can't get this phone working properly. Android Auto is a #1 priority for me.
Is there a way to grab update Zips somewhere online and easily update from the updater tool? I did this before when I got my device to Android 7.1.1 ways back (I purchased my ZTE almost 2 years now).
Which one do you have the U, G and the Chinese version?
Really ? did you even searched ?

Not without the B35 stock firmware which no one seems to have as ZTE never put it up on the support page before everything went down.
I still have a fully stock phone for now and I have been trying to find a way to root without wiping my device so I can try to pull the OTA from /data, but so far I haven't had any luck.

As i got my A2017G two day before, there was the v B02 installed on it! (from apr. 2017?)
Unfortunately, i can’t get a newer OTA update because all ZTE servers seems to be offline.
But I have found several v A2017G/B10 zip files in the internet. I have downloaded two of them and compared. Result=Equal
After putting some of the files onto my sd, the update was found and installed successful! Now i am on B10.
A little bit of work, but a good result!
