Update via OTA Axon A2017. - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Hey I bought an Axon 7 A2017 from China and I just figured out that it doesn't have OTA updates because the buyer installed a multi-language OS that prevents OTA .Please I want to know how to enable ota or a way to update manually to the latest android Nougat . Can you please give me a simple method because I'm a real noob in flashing and unlocking smartphones. I want only to update the stock OS to the latest android version and then root the smartphone in order to install some root required apps.
Thanks Folks.

Any help please ?

I don't have the chinese version, but you have to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP, then you'll be able to install the stock ROM. Try to use bkores's axon7toolkit
Also try searching for this (in Q&A), I'm 100% sure this has been asked at least twice before. You could've gotten an answer much sooner if you had tried to find an old post that asks the same

Not guides, just people who asked this already. This is really common.
Or you can just go the easy way and try using the axon7toolkit, it will ask you what model it is, and you can put A2017

Thanks my friend for sharing this information.

process is the zip file for b013. unzip and place on root of an SD card. Then trigger system update via system updates in settings. Phone will detect the file. then it's a domino effect after that of updates. Current one is 7.1.1

Thanks buddy , I'm on B07 can I update directly to B013 and then unlock the bootloader and root the phone ?? if yes , Will the OTA appear automatically to the latest firmware available ?

Just update to B13, it doesn't matter if the latest OTA doesn't appear, you'll probably need to install more than one OTA. Also, if you'll do it this way don't unlock the phone until you get the latest version.

I bought a used Axon 7 A2017. It already has TWRP on and the model number is reported as ZTE A2017 in "About phone".
Currently it's on Android 6.0.1 and I can't update from the settings menu. How do I update to latest Android?

not sure, I'm not a rooting man. I need my phone to be stock. certain apps do not run if you root a phone

You can use a flashable system zip and use it on TWRP, I think DrakenFX made some for the A2017. Otherwise you need to flash the a2017 stock recovery on it (with a flashable zip like tron1's or drakenfx's) and then use the update feature on the phone.

How do i upgrade from 5.1.1 to 6?

Hey guys,
Rooted phone with TWRP and Xposed.
Purchased in USA (amazon)
About Phone: http://pasteboard.co/Khp5Wg2.png
There are so many threads in DEV (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development), sadly I'm not sure which one i should be referring to - Could i please be referred to the correct one?
Also:
AFAIF all i need to do is download the correct file, boot to TWRP and flash the file, that's what i did with my Nexus 5 - is the process still the same? will i need to re-install things like SuperSU/TWRP/Xposed?
if updating the stock via flashing deletes information on the device, is it possible do bypass this and do it in a different way? such as somehow re-enabling OTA?
thank you!

Hey,
thanks for the quick asnwer, there are 4 files for 6.0 there, since i have a single sim card and i got my device in US can i assume this is the right link:
For LA SingleSIM users: XT1572_CLARK_RETLA_6.0_MPH24.49-18_cid12_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
Or is there a way to tell from inside the device if i have the LA or EU version?

They only difference between them is the default language ( which you can change )
Wrong thread. LA= Latin America
Go HERE as long as you have an xt1575. Look by your USB port

If I was you. I would download the 5.1.1 stock Twrp backup, flash that. Then fastboot flash the 5.1.1 recovery. After rebooting you should get the two updates. Then re-root after the two OTA updates. By taking the OTA's, I believe your getting some binaries you can't get from the firmwares (rpm.bin, etc).
Or... Just download the last twrp 6.0 backup and flash that. You won't have to worry about recovery then.

After restoring the stock recovery reinstall your current OS and then you should be able to update via the updater app or by the dload method

What is your full build version - GRA-xxxCxxxB190?

Btw, another way to update in your situation without losing root, is by using an all-in-one tool like FlashFire:

Ok, before going any further, I strongly recommend making a nandroid backup using TWRP & also transferring a copy of the backup to another device, like a PC/laptop if possible...

You should only apply updates with the same Cxxx as yours.I thought that you have C432 from the other guy's post so I'm sorry.
And I've found B210 with C469 so you can update to this first with extracting the recovery from it with Huawei Update Extractor and flashing via fastboot and then updating via dload but i don't know if there's EMUI 4.0 for C469.

Hi,
What happens if you update with the wrong Cxxx?
I just got a used p8 that's got GRA-L09C02B191 on it. I'd like to update it to Android6 before starting to screw around with custom ROMs. I've got FirmwareFinder running, and it's already found 200+ options, none of which appears to be C02, despite that being my range setting. Is my model unupdateable?
TIA!

You will get C900 and won't be able to get OTA updates, themes may not work and Android pay.

Thanks for the lightning fast reply!
That's not so bad, I don't care about themes, don't use Android Pay, and doing the updates manually isn't a huge pain. Is there anything else that I lose? Presumably I'll be able to roll back to gra-l09c02b191 to restore full functionality?
So can I then just go directly for the latest firmware, which I guess is B370?
Thanks!

US997 Upgrade

Hey all,
My phone has finished downloading the latest update, but I'm holding off on updating until I know that it doesn't close out my option of rooting at a later date. Is that the case? Or should I hold off just in case?
Mine updated to 13a and i have root and twrp
Same here. I updated, then did the bl unlock/twrp/root. Works great!

Can you explain what you did? New to this phone. Havent even connected it to wifi yet. Should I root/twrp first and then update? I was under the impression that updating could remove twrp, and then Id have the possibility of losing root/unlocked bootloader.
What should I do to ensure Ill keep my options open in the future?

Update Zip is online in the romsection.
there is also a step by step.
with the zip you do not lose twrp.
for root flash supersu or magisk directly after installing the rom.

What metbod you use for overclocking?

Getting back to stock EMUI super easily, almost no hassle

Hi everyone, today I will be telling you all how to get back to stock as long as your bootloader states "PHONE Unlocked" and "FRP Unlock"
You will need to install this, this is super duper important! https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
When installing, you will see the error: "E: Unknown command []]"
DO NOT BE AFRAID!
That is supposed to happen lol.
Installation procedure -
1. Flash this TWRP: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18uHjW73Th8iYKIs5m_QgwleMIOjsZd7S/view?usp=sharing
2. Wipe everything except SD card, then choose "Format data" to decrypt device
3. Reboot once again into TWRP (NOTE: If you are using USB OTG cable, make sure to plug it in AFTER TWRP is fully booted and ready to go, if you do it early, you get an error, which is weird lol. EDIT: Not sure if this error is still present in the new twrp, but it's never bad to play it safe.)
4. Flash HuRUpdater, make sure the file names are correct!
5. Reboot into stock recovery
6. Factory reset and wipe cache partition
7. Reboot
This method also enables themes to work again, so no need to worry about that!
Lots of thanks to @zxz0O0 to providing this awesome tool
And more thanks to the OpenKirin community for helping me out when flashing this! :good::good::good:

(Used to say you can't update ota... but now you can lol)
EDIT: what the...
I flashed it using the method in the original post, of course, and I got an update notification to update system! So yes, updating works!!!! lol
crayonicle said:
Most likely not, the moment you unlock bootloader, you get no updates from that point forward. Just check using this for latest version: http://pro-teammt.ru/huawei-firmware-finder/

oh so i do need to follow the instructions in the other thread and download the official firmware for the 7x?
Hi !
Does it work to restore on the BND-L21C432B121 ? Because it's marked for 7X but does it works on all firmware versions of this device ?
Thanks !
hi op,
does this work on L24 the usa version?
What update.zip file did you use? can you point to the link?
Also, does this update take the recovery to stock with no TWRP?

Yes, after flashing this via twrp, if you reboot once again to recovery, it is stock recovery, not twrp.

You need to download all 3 files and rename them.

I updated using the script. Thank you.
I see the OTA update but it failed to install. Do I need to relock the bootloader?

I would assume so. I sent a support ticket to honor regarding the issue (I had the same problem as you) but I went back to custom ROMs so I can't help you here sorry.

Did you try running the update again? I had a similar problem after I unrooted and reinstalled the stock recovery. It failed the first time but when I rebooted and did it again it worked.
