Check the other thread and follow instructions carefully. If you flash it right it will work flawlessly, if you do it wrong. Lots of error will come out

Still stuck on software version B133

Hi Guys
I want to install Marshmallow on my Huawei P8 Lite (Single Sim). I need to have B171 installed to update.
However, I am still stuck on B133. When I try to get an update over the air, it says that I already have the latest software installed. First, I tried to do this with the updater. Then, I used HiSuite. They both give the same message: no update available.
Next, I tried to update manually, by using the update that I found via xdadevelopers (http : // www . carbontesla . com/2015/11/huawei-p8-lite-b171-android-5-0-lollipop-firmware/) but it fails to update after 15%.
Finally, I tried all of the above after a factory reset, but nothing worked.
Is there something else I can do?
Thanks in advance!
Look at your phone settings, then about the phone and look at the build number and model number, what values do you have there?

Build number: ALE-L21C432B133
Model Number: ALE-L21
You don't have the balong bug error. So try reverting to build B052, then you can maybe updated to B188
Instructions on how to downgrade you can find here
Step 2 you don't need to do and Step 3 and 4 you can do OTA with the huawei updater.
Follow instructions mentioned in below topic , then you will be on latest android 6.0
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/huawei-p8-lite-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3309796
Thank you for your answers.
All right folks!
If you encounter this problem as well on your device, do what Olrak and ettenleurtje have told in this thread. Downgrade to B052, then do an OTA upgrade to B170, followed by an OTA upgrade to B188. Then you have the latest OTA update, so you might decide to stop here. However, if you really want the Marshmallow Beta version, do the latest step in their guides as well.
Thank you both for helping me.

Rollback Nougat to MM

https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...torial-rollback-n-to-mm-c432-devices-t3563955
I am trying to do this method now but I'm stuck at installing the 70mb rollback update. It is stuck on 5% and it only says "Installing update...". Anyone know anything?
Edit: I forgot to mention that when I turn my phone on it says "Your device has failed verification and may not work properly".
Try to search the rollback package on the Huawei website if you own country, it should have it in the download section of P9 Lite.
@Potato997 can you help me find it? I was searching everywhere for it, coudn't find it. The one I tried was from the thread that i mentioned above.
Where do you live?

It seems that in your country the rollback package is not available.. if the rollback package that you found does not work, to downgrade you have to flash first the oeminfo then dload the MM firmware but your bootloader will lock again.
If you want to give a try, in the "Ultimate Nougat guide" there are the steps

Dude, I am from Macedonia too and that tutorial you've posted in your first post worked for me... try downloading the rollback file again, and make sure you've downloaded the right package for your phone...

Hello dude,
it's due to your region (VNS-LxxC16xxx)
maybe you will never receive the upgrade to nougat (android 7.0/EMUI 5)...
De/rebranding for example to C432/Nordic-European region or other,,,
with the Sebastian's toolkit could surely help you...
Here the link to the thread..
Ask the DEV or other users to be suggested for the suitable/best for you...

Hello,
same as previous post i wrote dude...
I made a little search and it seems your CUST/REGION (C16) is due you live in South Africa.
That's all right but maybe you will never receive any official upgrade to nougat (android 7.x/emui 5.x).
So you need to change your cust, also called "rebrand".
You can do with @k1ll3r8e toolkit, the link is in the above post.
All info is explained as well, make sure you read a couple of time and make a backup of all your files before proceed..
Donot forget to leave your thanks to the developer, he did it for all of us users..
All the best.
@ljay1135
Hey mate use the forum to exchange all infos and files you want !!!
You are starting from zero and have a lot of things to do, try to follow and do one thing at a time....
First unlock bootloader and flash a custom recovery... TWRP suggested...
So download toolkit and simply follow what explained as well.
With the toolkit you can do everything you need to rebrand....
You need some kind of files you will flash with TWRP and stock recovery so only follow what are wrote in guide.
For the bootloader, Huawei site doesn't work so use DC-Unlocker to grab it...
Use search on the whole p9 lite thread to find what you're looking for
or kindly use @ and ask dev or other users to take an advice, i'm sure someone wil help you..
It's not really complicated, just before make some things read more time what you're planning to do.
I cannot guide you throw this, you can do it.. just believe in yourself and use brain (must powerful muscle we have..)
Have a good day dude and remember make a backup and do one thing at a time..
P.S.: To do this some basic knowledge needed. if you think you do not have them, give up... Sorry..

P9 lite - VNS-L21C432B160

Hello there,
I have just received an old P9 lite - VNS-L21C432B160. I has Android 6.0 an EMUI 4. I wanted to flash a custom ROM but I am not able to. I have bootloader unlocked. I am able to instal TWRP 3.0.2-0. But all custom ROMs I tried, gave me ERROR7 or Signal 11. (It is not possible to correct Error7 according to manuals here...)
There is TWRP 3.2.1 for this phone but it doesn't work at all. I found out, it wants EMUI5.x which I do not have. Is it correct that I need to update to Nougat7 and EMUI5 first? I am trying to do it maybe 4 days already. I have tried everything which is available on the internet but I failed. I have original Stock ROM file with Android 6 - it works.. I also have update file for Android 7 (B336), but the phone doesn't want it. According to official manual, I need some kind of transfer package, which is not available.
Can anybody help me with flashing a custom ROM to this phone? I would love to have LineageOS 14.1
Thank you very much
Karel

Hi Karel,
use Firmware Finder app to update to android 7.
I recommend vpn/dns method.
You should point to B370 FULLOTA-MF-PV one...
All info are inside the app and some videos are on You_tu_be...
You can update the same way to latest firmware.
Good luck... :fingers-crossed:
Dude if you will succeed do not use 3.2.1 twrp, use instead 3.1.1-1 one..
Cheers
Hello Hello, thank you very much !! I was successful. The phone runs with the latest firmware now. I tried to install lineageOS 14 but I am not able to do that. I am stucked at the boot logo .. I found info: "If you stuck on boot screen, change your file system"... filesystem of what? SD card? Phone?
Thanks in advance!
Karel

Dude, the instructions are so old,
also i never installed LineageOS 14 on my p9 lite. (I do not have it anymore)
I can tell you to use twrp version 3.1.1-1 and I recommend posting it
in the appropriate thread, maybe other users can answer in more detail ..

Hello dude,
i wish to help but i think it's not possible....
anyway the best you can wish for is having android 7 stock
or some custom version of android 8.
As you wrote you have the cinese variant (G9 Youth). It should have
a different processor and need a personalized rom, can you check it ?
Go in settings, phone info...
Please report your complete firmware version
(example: VNS-L21C432B160/VNS-AL00C00B230)
and chipset version (example: Kirin 650/Snapdragon SD 617)
P.S.: You don't need to post in multiple sections.

Hello,
try to upgrade using THIS GUIDE.
Just change your firmware whit the one used into the guide...
At point n.2 add your device : VNS-L21C432 ;
At point n.4 choose VNS-L21C432B371 FULLOTA-MF-PV ;
At point n.13 you should find VNS-L21C432B371 update into the inbuild updater ;
As a last resource you could flash this firmware via TWRP
but it requires an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery.
Let the community know if it went well..
