Thanks for the info.
I have been using US customized firmware without any issue with Hangouts dialer. But after I flashed to Nordic's latest, it stop working with error msg 'phone calling not available temp something...'. So I wonder some countries' firmware might have impact on that...

Update now available here in Austria.
Do u guys think I can simply OTA Update my rooted 256 fw? The Update is only 19.8 mb in size.

Thanks for the Feedback! Figures I lost it anyways (and the Recovery with it) even though I made and flashed a pre-rooted firmware from recovery as always. Whatever happened there. Gonna have to roll back to KK tonight, get Recovery up and running and then finally retry flashing the a newly created pre-rooted FW from my FTF file.
Really quite annoyed at this right now. Could have just OTA`d and the result would have been the same. Hopefully no big Security holes for some time. Not big on wasting several hours, just to get my phone running the way I want it to run.

TWRP did the trick. Rocking a dual recovery, rooted fresh install of .264 now.

Thnx, added it.

.264 error power off
after upgraded to .264, my phone was down, cannot power on. any one faced this problem

So I ran the OTA and after it installed, all the apps that I had moved to the SD card were no longer on my homescreens, and I cannot even search for them in the Google Now launcher app. They are still in the app drawer but I have to manually scroll down and find them. I can't just type in their name?? Anyone else have this issue? I am totally stock, no root or anything.

I had something similar. With all apps on the sd card initially being unavailable. After maybe 5 minutes the phone rebooted itself and now all apps appear to have been restored to where they were prior to the update and are once more able to be used

I like the fact that they're releasing frequent updates but the problem is they add nothing to our valuable G3 so why wate resources for a mirage. better prepare an alpha or beta release of 5.0 already.

It will always be 4.4.2 until 5.0 because there is no point upgrading to 4.4.4. That only contains Nexus fixes, which we dont need, and some security fixes that can be added to 4.4.2. Google chose to add them and call the change 4.4.4, LG can add them directly because they arent fixes made by Google.

This is the first time this has happened. I upgraded with the LG PC Suite, then used LG Flash Tool to revert back to M and then Normal Flashed to N, causing the same issues, so it's gotta be an incompatibility with my settings (I've frozen a lot of apps through Titanium Backup) and the new OS.

Just received Update Notification for 22.21.11 on Pure Edition?

As the title suggests... I just received an update notification for 22.21.11 on the T-Mobile Pure Edition. I'm currently on 22.11.6...

I was on 22.11.6 rooted with TWRP. I just unrooted through the latest SuperSU, flashed stock Lollipop recovery from graffitixnyc's website, and the update installed without issue. So far I haven't noticed any additional settings or anything, so I presume this is primarily a bugfix release. I suppose we'll see whether battery drain or some of the more minor bugs have been addressed.

Did you flash back the stock boot of .6 ? Because chainfire's custom kernel image would inject something to modify the kernel, OTA may fail when verifying stock kernel files.

That seems quite likely. I only rooted it a few days ago because I wanted to restore something with TiBu but I had left it unrooted for a few weeks after upgrading to Lollipop.
Could someone clarify what this update exactly is? Is it an update from .6 Lollipop, giving it higher version number? I'm just wondering why this thread is so relatively small...

Does this work for locked bootloaders?
Also, from which FTF did you create this?

Its just like installing a custom rom yet its not a custom rom just stock with pre root access. if you have rooted before and have twmp or philz touch whiz recovery just install it from the recovery option wiping Dalvik and Cache and then installing this zip then reboot system and you're good to go. shouldn't be hard follow some guides on youtube if you don't know.
what if i have never rooted before?? because ive got a locked bootloader with 100% stock rom and havent flashed any custom stuff... all i did was get the phone from vodafone and then i flashed the uk firmware (same as the one you have minus the root)

EDIT: installed wrong version haha
Nice work with the Flashable zip.
Apart from the inclusion of the 'clear all recents' button what else is improved upon, or not forgotten, in comparison to the earlier Lollipop updates?
My Z2 is still showing V 23.1.A.0.726 ready for downloading but so far I've resisted this so-called upgrade, its too half-baked. I'm still on KitKat until I get more feedback on this being a better attempt at an upgrade.
What are your impressions so far?

Well since ive been using it daily I found that the battery has been draining fast soon as I take it off charge its down to 98 percent already I have lollipop ? on my moto g doesn't drain this fast.

thx for the zip
So, as I understand
move the zip to my sd card,
flash from recovery( my Z2 is 17.1.1.a.0.402 root with dual recovery) the zip and that is?????
nothing else?
Do I need flashtool or everything else?
i am asking bcause I saw other guides that said at the end to flash with flashtool the ftf fimware:
like step 11 at following link:

I've noticed when i was using the stock rom (1000000% uk stock with no extras) i could get around 3/4 days battery life which includes having the bluetooth on all day connected to my helmet and sbh52 and after i installed this im getting half that xD....
So the increased battery consumption is another reason to stay away from this. I get plenty of usage on KitKat, thats with BT and Wifi on nearly all of the time.
From all the negative aspects I've read about Lollipop on the Z2 it seems like its anything but an upgrade.

Ive created latest pre root release of the latest D6503 Locked Bootloader Firmware things ive added are SuperSU v2.46 and NUT's Latest Dual Recovery v2.8.22 Enjoy
Issue Fixed*
There was a issue with the latest Recovery when pre rooting some reason the recovery didn't apply. Well ive sorted it using a manual fix requires a computer by manually installing the Recovery seemed to have fixed the problem
Step 1.
Download the Manual Recovery Below
Step2.
Make sure usb debugging is enabled.
Step3.
Run the Install.bat when it asks for a number press 1 then wait till it says now connect you're phone via USB and plug the phone in to computer its should say press any key then you're phone will restart and you should have Recovery p.s sorry for the problem's
Manual Recovery Install Download Recovery Mirror (ZippyShare)
Has always remember to:
1. Put the zip on your SDCard or internal memory
2. Boot into you're favourite recovery
3. Flash the zip
4. Wipe data/cache and dalvik
5. Reboot
6. Done

[Discussion] OTAs on Rooted Huawei/Honor phones- Confirmed

Saw many post from new users and senior members as well and most of the time there are lot of confusion on the OTA part, especially for the rooted phone. Few says it gets (I am one of them) and few says it doesn’t as rooting capabilities modifies the system boot.img and also we have unlocked bootloader so device wont get the OTAs. I have been using the Huawei/Honor phones for 2 years now and have been getting all the OTAs on rooted phone and confirmed the same many time but still there are lot of confusion and users thinks they wont get OTA on rooted phone.
Just confirming here that you will receive OTAs on rooted phone without any issues. This is 2nd update on my phone since rooted in past 2 months.

Note- I am not using any firmware finder or other things for this as I dont trust on FF as it messed my Honor 5C in February and I given up on it.
Instructions-
If you are rooted but then rolled back to stock recovery, just download the OTA and update.
If you are rooted with TWRP recovery, flash the stock recovery first and then download the OTA to update. (TWRP wont be able to update OTA)
My phone is with modified boot.img by magisk. It was just updated to B388 sucessfully without swithing back to stock boot.

Yes it will need stock recovery
If I go back to stock recovery what happens to all my apps and settings that need root?
What's the best way to backup, flash stock, update then restore?
PS I'm coming from a iPhone.
Thanks,
Chris

It will remain intact. No data loss. Well Chris, i can confirm on the OTA part but you never know the unforeseen consequences. I mean can run into trouble sometimes as Huawei/Honor phones are prone to brick in seconds. I would say to not update in such scenarios.
