Difference of Update.app and update.zip
1) Update.app is full Stock ROM when flashing FULL ROM. Insert update.app into folder called “dload” in sdcard (if no “dload” create one). Then Progress Local update or through HiSuite.
2) Update.zip is mainly upgrade file (Update files) OTA which do not need to un-zipped the file. Place the un-zipped update.zip into folder called “dload” in sdcard (if no “dload” create one). Then Progress Local update or through HiSuite.

Full Restore Method - Manual Steps below, if you prefer Auto flash use VirusPlus Multi-tool
1. Download latest Official Full ROM from EMUI's site (L02, L12), HuaweiUpdateExtractor and adb.
2. Unzip ROM and open UPDATE.APP with HuaweiUpdateExtractor.
3. Extract SYSTEM.img and RECOVERY.img (delete .header files that HuaweiUpdateExtractor generates you need only .img files) and put them in adb folder.
4. Boot in fastboot and conect to PC.
5. Open cmd.exe from adb folder and type (or copy-paste) the follow commands one by one:
Code:
fastboot devices
Code:
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
Code:
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
6. Put dload folder, you extracted before from Full ROM, with UPDATE.APP to root of your SD.
7. Detach USB cable from phone, turn it off and boot it up with holding all 3 buttons (POWER, VOLUM UP, VOLUME DOWN) untill you see EMUI installation Screen.
This is a full restoration method that means that will lost data, root etc.
You can skip steps 6 and 7 and do local update, instead of 3btns installation, after step 5 so you will not lose data. Related post

guys, i need a complete DEFAULT installation, for example when I'm installing CM, it's complete on default settings, it's possible for EMUI 3 too? or i can just FACTORY DEFAULT and nothing more :?
Don't understand what you mean, I prefer full stock rom before moving to CM (If you tweaks and used custom Rom before), factory reset wont do much especially you tweaks things.
left-right slide out on stock launcher pops a menu to hide apps on Dev 5.2.16 maybe is exist on prev version too.

Step 2: Extract the (.zip) file and copy the "UPDATE.app" file to your (dload) folder in your external SD card.

Step 4: Turn off your phone, then press both the Volume Up + Volume Down + Power Key. Then release the power key as soon as you see the initial splash screen.
Step 5: The Huawei eRecovery will start and will update your device from the "UPDATE.app" file that you had placed in your (dload) folder automatically.
Part II - How To Root Huawei Honor 7
Stage 1 – Unlock The Bootloader
Part 1.1 – Getting The Unlock Password

Product ID: Open the dial up and type: *#*#1357946#*#* -> (e.g. 88429554)
Verification Code: Type the Captcha.
Step 5: Press submit and obtain the unlocking password in red (e.g. 1078018121593242).
Step 6: Store the code obtained in step 5 somewhere safe.
Part 1.2 – Preparations
Step 6: Download and install the latest version of the "15 Seconds ADB Installer”. You can find the download link at >

Step 8: Enable the “Developer options” by going to:
Settings -> About Phone -> Build Number
Tap on the build number 10 times quickly. A message must appear alerting you that the developer mode has been enabled.
Go to the “Developer options” and enable “USB debugging”.
Part 1.3 – Booting into Fastboot Mode
Step 9: Power the phone off.
Step 10: Boot the phone into “fastboot mode” by pressing the below keys.
[Volume Down] + [Tap on Power Button]. You can release the power button as soon as you see the initial splash screen.
Note 1: You must enter the fastboot mode directly after pressing the above keys.
Note 2: In case (Step 10) did not work, then turn off your phone again then insert the USB cable and connect it with your computer. After that, press the same combination mentioned above for 10 seconds. Note 3: You can also boot into the fastboot mode using the following command >
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Step 11: Connect your phone with your PC. Use a USB cable to connect your phone with your computer while your phone is in the fastboot mode.
Step 12: Open your “Command Prompt (cmd)” and type >
Code:
fastboot devices
Note: The second command must show that your device is in fastboot mode.
Part 1.4 – Perform The Unlock Command
Step 13: Perform the unlock command > fastboot oem unlock ***, where *** is the 16 characters unlock code.
Code:
fastboot oem unlock 1078018121593242
Note: You need of course to replace "1078018121593242" with your unique 16 characters unlock code.
Step 14: Wait for the phone to get unlocked. It will automatically restart if you have entered the correct code.
Step 15: Test if the phone is successfully unlocked by entering the following command >
Code:
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
Case 1: If you have got the message of “Bootloader Lock State: UNLOCKED”, then your phone has been successfully unlocked.
Case 2: If you have got the message of “Bootloader Lock State: LOCKED”, then your phone is still locked.
Note: if you want to re-lock the phone, please check this thread for more details on that. Thanks to @sminki for posting that up and highlighting this point.
Stage 2 – Install Custom Recovery
Step 16: Open your command prompt, and navigate to the right directory where your recovery image file is located. You can do that using this command:
Navigate to the right directory:
[“Directory Letter”]:
Examples: D:, C:, or E:
Navigate to the right folder:
cd [“Full Path Of Directory”]
Example: cd /Users/User1
Step 17: Test if your device is detected by typing the following command while you are in the bootloader mode:
Code:
fastboot devices
> If you got the right messages that your device is properly connected, then you can proceed to step 18.
Step 18: Type the following command to flash the recovery image (TWRP). The recovery image is in English and you can download it from this link. Make sure to download it and place it in the right directory before typing the below command line.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After the completion of that, simply reboot your device using the following command >
Code:
fastboot reboot
Note: “recovery.img” is the name of the TWRP recovery image. You need to replace this name with the name of your recovery image (e.g. twrp-3.0.2-0-plank.img).
Stage 3 – Root The Device
Step 19: Download the latest SuperSU version from this link and place it on your hard disk then copy it to your phone. You can copy the file from your computer to your device using this command >
Code:
adb push SuperSU-vX.zip /sdcard/
Note 1: You must be in the right directory of the “SuperSU” file or else the above command will not work.
Note 2: You must replace "SuperSU-vX" with the right name of your SuperSU file (e.g. BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip)
Step 20: When the process of flashing the recovery is done, reboot your device into the recovery mode using the following command >
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Step 21: After finishing step 20 successfully, your phone would have been booted into the recovery mode. You will be able to see the TWRP home screen. From there, click on the “Install” option then navigate to your /sdcard/ directory where you have copied or pushed your "SuperSU-vX.zip" file.
Step 22: Find the "SuperSU-vX.zip" file and install it.
Step 23: Navigate back to the home page of TWRP then click on the “Reboot” button in order to boot into the system.

Part V - How To Fix Bootloops
Breaking out of bootloops depends on your device state and what kind of problem you are having. In this section, we are going to focus on the popular case where you can’t access neither the system nor the recovery partitions.
Step 1: Turn off the phone.
Step 2: Press the following buttons:
[Volume Down] + [Tap on Power Button]. You can release the power button as soon as you see the initial splash screen.
Step 3: Head to your computer and download and install the following tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
Step 4: Download the latest complete update file (B121) or (B330b) depending on which system you had installed before the bootloop problem. You can download it from:
http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/375942-roms-honor-7-stock-rom-images-updates-121115-b140/
Then, extract it and get its UPDATE.app file.
Step 5: Use the Huawei Update Extractor to extract the (BOOT.img), (SYSTEM.img), (RECOVERY.img), (CACHE.img), (CUST.img), and (USERDATA.img) from the UPDATE.app file that you have extracted from Step 4.
Step 6: Open your command prompt, and navigate to the right directory where you have extracted the image files. Use the “cd” and “..” commands to do so.
Step 7: Type the following commands and execute them one by one >
Code:
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot flash cache CACHE.img
fastboot flash cust CUST.img
Step 8: You can also erase the user data if you like by typing and executing the following >
Code:
fastboot flash userdata USERDATA.img
Step 9: Reboot your device using the following command >
Code:
fastboot reboot
Step 10: You must be able to boot successfully into the system.
Step 11: After booting successfully, apply again the steps mentioned in Part I.
Important Note 1: If the "fastboot flash" is reporting "FAILED <remote: command not allowed>", you need to unlock your device again even if the bootloader is stating that your device has already been unlocked.
Important Note 2: When breaking out of bootloops or frozen splash screens, you need always to flash the right partitions that match up with the previous partitions that you had installed on your system before the occurrence of the bootloop.
Part VI - How To Change The Boot Animation
Step 1: Root Your Device.
Step 2: Create a full Nandroid backup.
Step 3: Create your own animation or download one online. Note that you need the resolution to be (1080 x 1920 pixels). It should not last more than 10-12 seconds at most.
Step 5: Your animation files must be compressed and renamed as: “bootanimation.zip”.
Step 6: Change the permissions of your .zip file to (rw-r-r).
Step 7' - (In case you are running Android 5.x): Navigate to /Cust/Preinstalled/Public/Media and backup the original “bootanimation.zip” file somewhere safe on your hard drive or sdcard.
Step 7'' - (In case you are running Android 6.x): Navigate to /system/etc/media and backup the original “bootanimation.zip” file somewhere safe on your hard drive or sdcard.
Step 8' - (In case you are running Android 5.x): Copy your newly created bootanimation.zip file to the directory /Cust/Preinstalled/Public/Media and replace the original file.
Step 8'' - (In case you are running Android 6.x): Copy your newly created bootanimation.zip file to the directory /system/etc/media and replace the original file.
Step 9: Reboot and check up your new boot animation.

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo of=/sdcard/oeminfo"
Download this zip file and extract it to your desktop or any location of your choice.
From your opened command prompt, navigate to the extracted zip folder that you have downloaded in Step 5. Use the "cd" command to do that.
Create your new splash screen logo as follows:
Step 1: Open your Adobe Photoshop and create a new file that has the following parameters
Width: 1080 pixels
Height: 1920 pixels
Resolution: 72 pixels/inch
Color Mode: RGB Color, 8-bit
Step 2: After creating your new image, save it as follows:
Extension: *.bmp
From the "Advanced Options", select R5 G6 B5 from the 16-bit depth options.
Save your newly created image in Step 7, in the same folder that you have extracted in Step 5.
From your command prompt, type the following command:
Code:
OEM_logo.exe oeminfo your_logo.bmp
Replace "your_logo.bmp" with the name of your logo.
The above command will create a new oeminfo for you that has your new logo. It will also replace the old one in the same folder.
Copy your newly created oeminfo to your sdcard by typing the following command:
Code:
adb push oeminfo /sdcard/oeminfo
Copy your oeminfo from your sdcard to the right partition on your device:
Code:
adb shell su -c "dd bs=32768 if=/sdcard/oeminfo of=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo"
Reboot your device and check the new splash screen.

Awesome and very helpful guide @kenshiwara
Thank you for this guide.
If I understand, we can update if twrp is installed?

No offence but this is just @piskr 's thread re-typed with some serious errors added to it.
Did you try "fastboot oem relock"? I started a thread on that, it doesn't work.
Did you try any of the "fastboot erase" commands? As when I tried it wouldn't - "Command not allowed"
The Huawei extract tool doesn't get the names of the images on the current full ROMS (tested on B121 and a few of the Chinese ROMS) it doesn't have the mappings for these. However it has worked with incremental patches..
Extracting the files and only flashing a few like system will leave you with and inconsistent device (if from different versions). Those 20+ files have a reason - modem, sensorhub, trustfirmware, teeos (whatever that is!), etc.. There are actually something like 40 block devices on the H7 (/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/). To run an official update on that system would almost certainly result in failure. (I have tried)
..and flashing a whole system doesn't fix a boot-loop. That's flashing the whole system, it goes away because whatever was causing it has been deleted/wiped. If that's the idea, better off flashing Huawei's recovery and doing a full UPDATE.APP of B100 / B121 and moving up.
Oh and just one more minor thing - holding the power button isn't required, turn the phone on and hold either down (with usb data connected) for boot-loader, or up for recovery
Sorry... I know you mean well, however posting things in good faith is dangerous. Especially in a guide aimed at beginners.

Thank you for your comments and notes. It is great to see your contribution up there.
This was actually my personal guide that i wrote to help myself around while operating on this device (PLK-L01). Based on your comments, there are several sections that require fixing. Would you mind taking the time to re-write those sections in a step-by-step fashion in order to update the guide?
You disagree with the section of "How to fix the bootloop when you can't access neither the system nor the recovery partitions". My solution - which worked for me - was to erase and flash the main partitions. Still though, if you have a better method, please share it with the whole community in a step-by-step fashion. Everyone will be grateful.
We mainly need the following:
1. How to re-lock the phone if the command of "fastboot oem relock" is not working on some models?
2. How to break out of bootloops if we can't access the system or the recovery partitions? (and flashing the main partitions from fastboot is not a stable solution in your opinion).
If you can provide a detailed step-by-step guides addressing the above two points, i would surely be more than happy to update them in the guide. Please note that the above guide is mostly tested on PLK-L01. Please, always mention your model number when writing your notes.
Thanks again for sharing your results with the community and hope you can send us a better version on the above sections based on your findings.

TWRP is not required at all if you are just updating. You should root your device after applying all the updates rather than before.

LOL, yeah, some people or developers would have taken it as angry rant but we all are here to learn and help each other.
OK, well I also have an EU PLK-L01 with unlocked bootloader. I re-tested the following today to confirm my initial findings:
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
Code:

Hi there beautiful people.
I'm getting some error updating after installing tw recovery.
Code:
Checking MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found
file_getprop: failed to start
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/external_sd/dload/update.zip
E:Error installing zip file '/external_sd/dload/update.zip
Now backupping, i'm going to try to flash the zip (i'ts a stupid thing?).
Edit: Did not work either. Cannot update using twrp; the update app reboots directly in the custom recovery.
Currently on B121, it already had it. PLK-L01 europe.
Also, do you really think Haweii will public codes? I'm not so optimistic.

If that update.zip is from Huawei it won't work in TWRP.
You need Huawei recovery to install Huawei updates.

Indeed, it sounds pretty logic. So i should revert the stock recovery, update and then reinstall twrp.
Can I do it simply pushing trough adb? And where should I find the recovery.img?
Thanks for the help.

You have to extract them from the UPDATE.APP file!
I've done the work for you.. B121 recovery attached
Unizp, then
Code:
fastboot flash recovery B121_recovery.img
(like you did with twrp)
Then put TWRP back on.
I forgot to add - if the system partition is altered (su) then the official update may well fail..

I was downloading the full rom myself, but my internet speed is so slow. My savior, thank you. I hope to not bother you again with my low-tier noob problems.
Hi Guys,
a german Forum advised me to ask here because, here are the experts. So sorry for my Basic englisch, but have a big problem.
My problem:
I got a Huawei Nova Youth as a gift. This is explicitly offered in the Chinese market. After some fumbling I have been able to change the language to German. However, the keyboard still partially takes false inputs. In addition, the Play and App store does not work. Of course, many other apps will be blocked, not to mention the Bloodware.
It is the model WAS-AL00. I now know that it is sold here as P10 lite. I did not find out how to install a European OS or a custom OS (Lineage). The support say only blah blah does not work, blah blah license problems ... Can someone please give useful information about my problem?
If more information is needed, I'll give it to you. I have always been Windows Phone users so far. So please apologizes if I do not understand all Android technical Terms.
thx

I tryed to do this.
I entered the developer steeings. 2 points are not present oem unlock and root access are both not seen. I tryed to install app store for twrp but it is blocked. If I try to enter the fastboot option with restart from smartphone, it is blocked. So I think the main problem is to get twrp to load new image. I tryed to install the with apk file directly and via huawei store. Both was not possible. Any Idea? Backup is not necessary. I never worked with the smartphone.
Update:
It was possible to download me.twrp.twrpapp-26.apk and copy on phone. Now he ask for device. Is the P9 plus the best choise?
ok you need first unlock bootloader:
register here with your phone(faster with it) or with email: https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/detail
then:
1º Download serviceRom(b182 or b183) on your pc and extract it, Same thing for oeminfo c432(ds or ss) and twrp.
2º Once you get unlock code open cmd(type cd c: /users/yourname/adb(more or less)), type fastboot oem unlock code , press on the screen and reboot wait to finish.
3º Move twrp image(extract) to c:/adb, type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, type fastboot reboot and press vol+ till erecovery screen, poweroff and unplug then vol+ and power button(briefly stop pressing power button)
4º insert your sdcard on laptop and create dload folder in it, then copy update.app and folders from dload folder of downloaded service rom.
5º in twrp press backup button select sdcard storage and backup only oeminfo(copy to safe place), with downloaded oeminfo copy and replace oeminfo then restore.
6ºpoweroff and unplug, then press vol+- and power button untill update starts, if all goes ok should reboot.
at first big thanks foliaje. I am very happy for your fast answers. I tryed today the unblock page from hauwei. There was foolowing Problem.
1. I registered an account via Smartphone. Most of informations was chinese.
2. Change lange was not possible - same in PC browser. Seems like fix Region.
3. delete account and create new on PC. Change language to german was possible.
4. Try to login to unblock Website was not possible - Change Password Shows failure Email or account not present ....
Is it necessary to great account on Smartphone with fixed Region again and use this account for unblock?
Further *adb devices* shows an ID and unautorised device. Is that right?

Hi,
So many of us are not happy with the oreo rom of Honor 8 Pro (C675). Those who looking forward to downgrade from Oreo to nougat just follow the steps. (This method is tested and is working. I just finished downgrading and is working perfectly fine. I just want to share this method with you guys. Also this i my first post in the forum. Some steps have been copied from a previous post by xfact)
Things you might need :-
>>A computer
>>At least 8GB memory card.
>>An unlocked bootloader. (you can relock it later)
>>Download the necessary files here :- [The Dload file was previously shared in this forum by xfact, but the link is not working now. Fortunately, I downloaded the file while it was available and I am providing the link to the google drive backup.]
REMOVE THE *** IN BETWEEN THE URL'S
(a) Dload File --- https***://***drive.google.com/open?id=1ZpOoPZ3dEn86lEh0PwlZP0W2LShM-BnT
(b) Recovery File --- https***://***drive.google.com/file/d/1qiP4k5HtJ3VR5l9ac8FnpxrwryIxu-pV/view?usp=sharing
(c) ADB platform tools --- https***://***drive.google.com/open?id=1vu-awRNjH3B9os5MuHGSlu-ca6zNv10V
>>Unzip the above-mentioned Dload file, then go to the folder, then software>dload folder and unzip the 'SDupdate_Package.tar.gz' with 7-Zip. It will extract another archived file called 'SDupdate_Package.tar'. Now unzip that too with 7-Zip and you will get a folder called 'dload' again.
>>Now take an SD card with at least 8 Gb of space, format it to exFAT. Paste the last 'dload' folder and all its contents at the root directory of that SD card. Put it into your phone.
>>To unlock the bootloader, just log into---- https***://***bit.ly/2uEEvdj
This is their chinese website, use translator in chrome to read in english.
Fill up the necessary details and you will get an unlock code for your device.
>>Follow the necessary steps to unlock your bootloader from here :- https***://***bit.ly/2uEM1F8

Hi,
So many of us are not happy with the oreo rom of Honor 8 Pro (C675). Those who looking forward to downgrade from Oreo to nougat just follow the steps. (This method is tested and is working. I just finished downgrading and is working perfectly fine. I just want to share this method with you guys. Also this i my first post in the forum. Some steps have been copied from a previous post by xfact)
Things you might need :-
>>A computer
>>At least 8GB memory card.
>>An unlocked bootloader. (you can relock it later)
>>Download the necessary files here :- [The Dload file was previously shared in this forum by xfact, but the link is not working now. Fortunately, I downloaded the file while it was available and I am providing the link to the google drive backup.]
REMOVE THE *** IN BETWEEN THE URL'S
(a) Dload File --- https***://***drive.google.com/open?id=1ZpOoPZ3dEn86lEh0PwlZP0W2LShM-BnT
(b) Recovery File --- https***://***drive.google.com/file/d/1qiP4k5HtJ3VR5l9ac8FnpxrwryIxu-pV/view?usp=sharing
(c) ADB platform tools --- https***://***drive.google.com/open?id=1vu-awRNjH3B9os5MuHGSlu-ca6zNv10V
>>Unzip the above-mentioned Dload file, then go to the folder, then software>dload folder and unzip the 'SDupdate_Package.tar.gz' with 7-Zip. It will extract another archived file called 'SDupdate_Package.tar'. Now unzip that too with 7-Zip and you will get a folder called 'dload' again.
>>Now take an SD card with at least 8 Gb of space, format it to exFAT. Paste the last 'dload' folder and all its contents at the root directory of that SD card. Put it into your phone.
>>To unlock the bootloader, just log into---- https***://***bit.ly/2uEEvdj
This is their chinese website, use translator in chrome to read in english.
Fill up the necessary details and you will get an unlock code for your device.
>>Follow the necessary steps to unlock your bootloader from here :- https***://***bit.ly/2uEM1F8
>>After unlocking the bootloader, your phone will be factory reset. When the phone boots up again, go to settings and enable USB Debugging from devoloper options.

Prerequisite to flash beta on N20U (N986B) thanks to
dr.ketan
You need to be on November Security patch before moving ahead.
Dial *#1234#
If your info is ditto same as said below then only you can flash beta 1 for N986B
AP : N986BXXS3DUJ6
CSC : N986BOXM3DUH5
CP : N986BXXS3DUIF
Also if your device is rooted/modified, it will fail. (unlocked bootloader isn't issue but firmware must be complete stock)
TLDR instructions, thanks to pernodpepper
0. Create backup of your device (SmartSwitch)
1. Download .bin
2. Rename update.zip
3. Place file on SDCard
4. Go to recovery (No odin/download mode required)
5. Select Apply update from SDCard and choose update.zip
6. Profit
Detailed instructions along with multiple methods to install. Thanks to Evil_Smiley_za and @AhmedMomen
UPDATE:
-This thread will be for sharing tips and help and update.zip/.bin files (when/if available) for the OneUI 4.0 Android 12 Beta for the Galaxy Note 20 series (Unlocked/Exynos)
Installation Methods:
ADB-method:
1. Download SDK platform tools https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
2. Extract the file in your desktop.
3. Inside the extracted folder put the update.zip file
4. Inside this folder, holding left shift, right click the mouse and select "open command prompt here". The command prompt will open.
5. Shutdown your phone and connect it to the pc
6. Holding Power and volume+ and enter into recovery mode.
7. Select "update via ADB". (scroll down using the volume buttons and select using the power button).
8. Connect the phone to a PC using an original samsung USB cable.
9. In the command prompt run the following command:
./adb devices
10. Wait to see that the daemon has started and that your device is found.
11. If you device is found, run the following command:
./adb sideload update.zip
SD-card method:
1. Download the bin file and rename it to update.zip (by going to file options on your pc you can select to view the file extensions. This makes the renaming process much easier and safer, and avoids renaming the file to update.zip.zip)
2. Copy it to the root directory of your SDcard.
3. Shut down your phone.
4. Connect any USB device to your device, AKG earphones could work, then press Power and volume+ buttons to get into recovery mode.
5. Using your volume keys navigate to "update via sdcard" and press power button to select it.
6. Again using volume keys navigate to the file "update.zip" and press power button to select it.
7. Update will start. Leave it till it completes installing. It will take some time.
8. Phone will reboot by itself and load android.
The update process will start. You will see a percentage counting. First it will verify, then patch etc. Do not move the cable, disconnect the phone or power off the PC.
Once the process is completed (it takes some time) the phone will boot itself, update the apps and log into your home screen.
There are two methods that you can use to get into recovery mode
Method 1:
1. Connect your phone to your PC (Make sure USB debugging is on).
2. Using ADB, enter the command ./adb reboot recovery
3. Wait a little and you should be in recovery mode.
Method 2:
1. Power off your device
2. Connect your device to a PC or use the AKG earphones.
3. Hold down Power+VolumeUp buttons and keep pressing them until you enter recovery mode.
This will not trip knox if done by the methods above
Don't install a beta unless you are fully aware what you are going into.
Don't install the beta if you want your phone to be stable, IT'S a BETA.
It's recommended to make a backup of your data before updating to the Android 12 Beta.
Important Notes:
-Rename the .bin file to update.zip in order to be able to flash it from recovery.
-A common mistake done by some people is that they see the file named update while its a WinRAR.zip file already, then they add another .zip making the name of the file update.zip.zip which will not be flashed successfully, So make sure you do it right.
-Updating to the beta is AT YOUR RISK, No one is responsible if anything goes wrong.
You will not receive OTAs again UNTIL you are on a firmware that gets released later for your original CSC, thats most likely not happening before the BETA is over.

is it OXM?

Most probably you will have to flash it using Odin but I wouldn't guarantee that. Wait for some time till some modders here figure out a way.
