Can I change to WW from TW?

I have got my Asus from Taiwan so its firmware is TW. My question is if I can install a WW firmware on it?

Yes, you just have to root it, install Prime 1.4 WW (or follow the unroot procedure after rooting to flash WW stock)

Thanks! Downloading Prime 1.4. May I know which languages WW supports? Chinese, Thai, Korean & Arabic supported?

Yap! I met Ms. Lee , the product manager of Asus transformer! She seems smart enough to add keyboard as her idea!

Thanks for the links. You got it first before I posted.

Can confirm, just received .149 on my 550. No problem applying with root (method 3).

If you didn't change Recovery - shouldn't be a problem. I've done this with previous updates before.

Help pls
Im on .183 firmware but my recovery is on .164 (I just came back from CM13 but things are not going good at the rom so I flashed latest firmware but I cant find .183 recovery)
I tried updating into .184 update (latest) but error come by.
Can someone provide me a .183 recovery image? Or can somebody teach me how to flash the update using out-dated recovery.
Thank you (sorry for bad english)

Go to the pre-rooted rom thread in developement. You can download the boot, droidboot and recovery images as well as the pre-rooted roms. Flash with fastboot.
Just download what you need, if you have an old recovery you will probably need to flash all three files above...

good afternoon, I have the version .83, with Xposed and SuperSU, I have to do to install the update .84? Thank you.

Doubt
Hi, is possible to install this update with the TWRP Recovery or using sideload? I Have a custom rom and it's very slow to comeback official firmware and then flash this. Sorry for my very bad english

Thanks. BTW has anyone tried this method of manually installing the OTA?
http://androiding.how/install-ota-update-twrp-zenfone-2/

So... is this ROM finally 64-bit? or is just a 32-bit MM.

Go back to stock firmware and stock recovery, update to .184 or newer first, then flash MM .134 firmware.

It's normal for stock firmware lol, not only Asus; Samsung has done the same thing too on some July updates (with August 1 security patch)

I expected more features . Besides there are still bugs .
Multiple window is much desired feature . The phone screen size is big and multiple screen would help do multiple task at the same time .

Update from EMUI 4.1 to 5.*

Hi guys,
I would like to update my M3 BTV-DL09 from C100B010 to the firmware C100B302.
Now I have some questions:
- is the B302 still a beta build? If yes, does anyone know, when a final build is to be expected for Europe/Germany?
- I removed the updater app (thought I will not need it) and im rooted and Bootloader unlocked, so I cannot install the update.app container at the moment. Solution would be to flash stock Bootloader and then do it again via the secret code menu. Does anyone have the stock bootloader for B010 as flashable zip for TWRP?

I think you can extract files from update.app file, such as stock recovery...
I am on B302 and it seems to be official. At least that's what all pages with update tutorial say.
Only problem that I have is that bluetooth isn't working. I have no idea what to try.

I just ordered the 32gb version from Amazon and I am getting it Wednesday. I hope there is still development on this tablet. It looks to be a nice tablet. I don't think I will even need to Root it.

If you are in the US rooting it helps with 5g wifi and emui 5

I updated my device to B302 just yesterday using firmware finder and OTA.
I think that for LTE version the latest build is B303 and the update is an official stable build and files are uploaded on official Huawei server.

The C100B302 it a BETA, the newer C100B303 also is a BETA.
All Huawei firmware came from OFFICIAL Huawei servers...
The "updater" app is only required to check for OTA updates. ALL the updates are then installed by the RECOVERY module that is often overwritten by TWRP.
NEVER rewrite flash partitions if you're not knowing what you are doing! Search for a tutorial on Android partitions and read it!!!

No theme app!
I just upstaged my M3 wifi model w09, to the B302 version, its bootloader is locked and not rooted.
The only problem now I have is that I can not use or change themes, bcuz the system Theme app is not available, as if it hasn't been installed!
Any solution now that I'm not rooted?

Yes it was two big files that I forced updated one after another. And yes I have the "system update" in my tablet settings if that's what you mean.
I even re-installed it and tried B301 as well, but the results were the same!

Use Firmware Finder to send Firmware to Huawei Updater. It will flash both files. Dload method did not work for me either, I had same issue.
You need to be on marshmallow to do the proper update.

ok, so which version do i install to get back to marshmallow?

Good question...i can't find the rollback firmware for US. That is what you need first.
You can find here Marshmallow Firmwares:
https://boycracked.com/2017/05/13/official-huawei-mediapad-m3-btv-w09-stock-rom-firmware/
Probably BTV-W09C128B003 is what you need. First you need the rollback package from Nougat.

You can find the rollback package here, for you tablet. However this is a European German page. I hope that the package is good for your device.

thank you for the assistance but the only rollback on that page is again specifically listed as btv-dl09, in fact it is the same identical file listed on boycracked.

You need to choose as device BTV-W09.

don't worry about it being the German page, the included directions are all in English.
again,
thank you!
from what I've read, the rollback sets up the system to accept emui 4.1 updates, which are blocked after moving to emui 5.0 a second flash is required with the actual firmware. this is the direct link for the recommended firmware after the rollback.

I hope you're not using TWRP. It will fail.
You can grab the OTA and sideload it using the stock recovery. For OTA links, refer to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/how-to/7-0-ze520kl-ota-update-links-t3579753
