Return to ALE-L21 b575 from sokkoban's ROM - P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I want to retrive stock rom without any mod but I have a problem. I made backup before i flash sokkoban's rom but when i want to retrive this it's still this chinese model ALE-UL00. The next problem is when i want to flash system.img from stock package in cmd i see info that this file is unreachable (it has more than 2 GB), but when i change name of other file to system.img it's flashing. I don't know what file i can flash that will work properly?

This procedure means converting location of the phone. First flash the correct location zip via twrp. unicomelectric/cn for chineese fw, like 564 mod, and hw/eu for european fw like 575 mod. Secondly: after that flash b50 package for eu, b230/240 for cn. Lastly you can make all official updates till 575 (eu) or 564 (cn). From those fws you can flash sokkobans custom roms from sokkoban. Good luck.

Sorry about typo. i mean b050 ... for start.
You will lose network and sim but after update to b170 they will return.
Oh, and for mm: update procedure (official updates via ota):
eu: b050, b170, b188, b550/564, b575
cn: b230/240, b558, b564

I don't see b050, only b052 to download.

That is. The basic eu fw.

Ok, great. All works properly, but the last update. I got error "Software Install Failed!" :/ I downloaded this from this site: http://huaweip8lite.blogspot.bg/2016/03/firmwarehuawei-p8-liteale-l21-official.html and i got error :/

All works.

Ok. So that fw b564 from sokkobans blog is for cn firmwares. It is necessary to be on b558, or b564 (official, via ota). Because that fw its a mod from another modded cn firmware kangvip mod.
Now, if you are on eu channel, you cannot performe update to b564 sokkoban mod, because that is for cn.
BUT, from b565 (eu) or b574 (eu) you can flash another mod of sokkoban: b574 mod.

How can I restore brand firmware without twrp backup ?

Hi
I instaled the lastest firmware VNS-L31C432B161, but now need to revert back due to issues. Is this possible with the stock bootloader?
My Area code is now C900
thanks in advance
Download the rom you like and onstall it with the dload method
If you flash firmware VNS-L31C432B161 you can not return to any previous firmware that works ok...
You must have hope that Huawei launch another update that works ok again...

So it means once we flash B161 we can't downgrade (even with wipes ?) ?
Yes, it's corect. I realy want to hear from someone that can flash any firmware (less than B161)
after update to B161 (VNS-L21 or 31)...

That is not entirely true, you can install B160, which has the same problem ahah
But yeah, just hope for another firmware update from huawei..
Ok, starting from that 160 is less then 161, you have right...
But when i make update from B130 to B150 device updated ok, at version number is write right, B150 - this is ok.
But when i make update from B130 to B131 or from B150 to B151, version number is not changed at device properties...
Update procedure work ok, device restart, but version not changed...
I am curios in case of B160/B161 if firmware version is change...
What kind of bug do u have?

anything that works on the l31, c432 means it's the european variant
So all L31 variants work? Or is there differences in lte bands lets say like 432 and 185 variants ?
You can flash whatever rom version you want.
As most of us, we've installed vns-l31c185/c636b360(latest version of Nougat) and we don't have bugs or problems.
No matter what oem info it has (oem info is the Variant/region of the phone, like c432 is for Europe, c185 is for mena , c636 asia i guess, correct me if I'm wrong) The version will be compatible with your phone.
I don't know if there is differences between oem info of each region , personally i installed c185b360+ the additional package of c432b328 over c432b161,( i was in mm and went to nougat) and i dont have problems with mobile data.
@simo255
Thanks for the answers. Like i said i currently have rooted L31c432b336 and revolution recovery.
If i want to update b360 should upgrade through dload method or twrp?

Via twrp you can flash nougat without changing oem info. If you want to update via dload you must have the oeminfo of the rom you want to install.( So if you are on C432 you can t flash C185 Ffirmware via dload because you havr c432 oeminfo) but be carefull..there arr lots of bricked devicea.

Sorry to rub it, but I want to be sure because I already had troubles when upgrading to nougat.
But....so in twrp I can just flash the bigger (abt 1.2gb) file and its should work? No need to flash second smaller zip?
I have had Sony devices past 3 year and I have used to flash those

Ive ashed the second file and it gaves me errors
Like i did , flash the bigger size and the additional package, take a look at my thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/nougat-official-firmware-t3512932
I will follow simo225's instructions.
Now I'm beginning to wonder what is the differences between smaller zip and additional zip, because I thought they were the same :laugh:

Back from C900 to C150. How?

Hello,
I try to upgrade from c150b123 to c150b160 but obviously I failed. I flash C150, so I dont know where was the problem...
I read that is void my warranty. Is that a true?
What can I do to resolve this problem?
Sorry for my English!
I think you can use Huawei RollBack package using 3 buttons method and then flash c150b160 using the same method.
The rollback package and firmware image can be found on huawei site. Use google.

There is just Asia version of Rollback. I need to flash that?
As far as i know the region of the rollback package doesn't matter. I'm on c432 and used this
http://download-c1.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=93800&siteCode=pl
Be careful with the firmware image to be the right one (c150)

Thanks for helping! I didn't mention that I have L31 version. Or I can flash that for L21?
No, don't flash l21. The model matters. Download from huawei website rollback pckage for l31. The model does matter.
Forgot to ask you. You're on stock recovery ?

Yes, everything is stock. And b160 is Marshmallow, not Nougat.
b12x has many bugs and I just want to fix them , because my carrier didn't release update from september...
Oh yes sorry my bad. Then you don't need the rollback package. In this case the best option is to use firmware finder to update a full ota via system update.

I use firmware finder and got this problem although I check hundred times to use correct upgrade zip. I am scared to repeat update procedure because I don't want to brick my phone... :/
I guess I will have to take a risk.
You have to get the full ota update (with mf and pv in update name).

The C900 version

Hi, recently I tried to upgrade my P9 lite to Nougat using Firmware Finder app. I downloaded and installed the B361 version but it was all buggy so I decided to do a rollback to MM. After doing the rollback I got a C900B160 version.
Is this C900 version a problem? Should I change it to C423?
Also, why was the B361 Nougat so buggy? Did I do something wrong?

if you flashed rollback package its ok to get that. just put marshmallow CxxxB161 ( Cxxx- means your number C432 C02 etc.. ) then with 3 buttons method flash marshmallow and you are good to go.

I already flashed the MM and it is still a C900 version, I downloaded it from official emui website as I remember.

You need to flash oeminfo and custom.bin from fastboot .( Your bootloade needs to be unlocked. ) You can check huawei tool thread . There you will find what you need)
