CAN-L01 "NRD90M test-keys" problem - Huawei Nova/Nova Plus Questions & Answers

Hi,
i've upgraded my Huawei Nova (european version, vodafone branded) to android 7.0 via official OTA update. Soon i realized that this version was bugged, so i decided to do a factory data reset, but after the phone rebooted an error like "impossible reset" came out and i could only press on "reboot system now". It looped on logo for a while and then the welcome page appared (like it was successfully restored).
After all the process of the first configuration, i got my device working but i realized that again something was wrong. The phone signal indicator keeps telling me i'm connected via 3G or 4G even if i switch off mobile data, themes app doesn't work and under Build number i have NRD90M test-keys; plus the updater app wont open.
I've tried some guide on this forum, specially the one that say to apply the patch "update_data_full_CAN-L01_hw_eu", but all the pakage i've tried gave me the same error "Software install failed" at 5% of the process of installation.
I don't reallt know what to do now to get the phone works properly. If anyone can help i'll really appreciate.

Wellcome to nova android 7 era and same as many other person like me there is no certain fix for these problem??

I try many methods and there is no hope.but maybe just maybe you can send your phone to local store to reflash it then try update again

I've resolved the "NRD90M test-keys" problem manually flashing an update for my Nova (CAN-L01C02) with the version B340 that i found with FirmwareFinder without rooting or unlocking the bootloader. I put the links if someone is interested.
First flash the big one http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1371/g79/v86683/f1/full/update.zip (at this point the "NRD90M test-keys" problem still here)
Then the small update http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1371/g79/v86683/f1/full/CAN-L01_vodafone_default/update_data_full_CAN-L01_vodafone_default.zip that will fix the "NRD90M test-keys" problem and all the other problems (theme app not working ecc.)
Now the phone works fine, except for the update app that still won't open, but it is not a big problem because you can still flash updates manually. :good:

Welcome to the Pupped up club ...
You said that youve updated via OTA ?...the ''normal usual way'' tu update / upgrade ?
you did not use firmware finder... is that it ?
im asking cuz,via the ''normal / official OTA way,few of us are having problems BUT...
if your upgrade comes from firmware finder (or else), you can be 98% shure to have problems (like theme manager)
My wife and i have the same Nova Plus MLA-L03...
i did the upgrade via firmware finder on my device and, not happy at all
My wife did hers via OTA normal/carrier way and her phone just work perfectly...
and if you ask IF theres a way back to MM, well forget it... we just CANT rollback to Marshmallow/emui4.1:crying::crying:

Yes, at first i've updated via official OTA (the ''normal usual way'' to update) and i got all the problems described in the first post; then to resolve i've downloaded the firmware with firmware finder and flashed with the 3 buttons metod, and almost all is fixed now.

if it's not working is because you're flashing the wrong version of the update file, be sure to use the correct version (CAN-L01Cxxx) where xxx is the version you've installed in you device, then with "firmwarefinder" search the correct update file and flash it. This method have to work.

From what i know, that number version only change which system apps you have installed by default (of brand ecc.) so i can't find a reason for that be a problem. Insted you have the dual sim version right? Maybe is because you have flashed the single sim version?

have you verified if those options are checked in impostazioni -> controllo del movimento? in case of malfunctions, a factory reset is the definitive solution

Same here, All Motion Control options disappeared , and now Sim 1 is 2G/3G/4G and no option to switch to Sim 2 as in Kitkat
Tried to downgrade using B300 Downgrade package but failed also. Maybe today i'll unlock bootloader and try anyway to flash Kitkat using FastBoot
improved battery life with this new firmware, great job from huawei
In the options the voice TouchPlus there is no more!

I noticed that post. Thanks.
I downloaded it but it is not a simple as just running it once completely downloaded. I don't have a PC with me and it would appear to take some effort to do it this way. Hopefully the OTA is available soon, but I can find no information on it at all apart from the release dates for India.
Hello all, I have the PE-UL00 version, but i didn't yet received the OTA update. Is it possible to flash another version, meaning an international version (to remove all the chinese stuff) ? thanks in advance

It is simple. Just use a file explorer (like es file explorer) to unzip it to a folder named dload on sd or internal memory then go to settings/update/local update and hit install. No pc needed, works the same as ota download.
Do I lose everything and have to start from scratch? I read I have to unlock the bootloader.
I've done exactly that,but i get this error message,sigh....
I took the plunge and can confirm double tap to wake not working and unlock screeb slide in Chinese text.
I used this link
http://7961b64fc16ad15a92ef-9f98f1e...cf3.rackcdn.com/downloads/PE-TL10C900B324.zip
No chinese text as its the international update. Not sure if bootloader needs to be unlocked as mine is but I wouldn't think so for an official update. Don't lose any data but if it doesn't play nice it may be best to full wipe. Mine is OK but I was running B305 beta so not much has changed but I did do a full wipe when I put the beta on.

Can anyone root this lollipop ROM?
Not tried yet, I'm not sure there is a custom recovery working with it yet?

KIW-L21 C432B130 (UK) full revert package

If you have modified your device, are still on Lollipop and you'd like to revert your UK device back to complete stock, then you can use this package.
Download the zip, extract and put on a microSD (preversing the dload/UPDATE.APP structure).
Turn off your device, plug it into a charger (but not a computer) then, with the microSD inserted, tap the power button while holding volume up and volume down. The update will apply and you will be back to bone stock B130. Your device WILL be wiped.

Thank you Paul! Worked for me and my 5x is back running stock firmware again! Even managed to update to B140

Why is it specifically a UK firmware ? Can't it be used for other European devices ?

I couldn't use the existing L21 B130 ROMs available on my UK device so I assume there are sufficient differences preventing installation.
I've bought my device in germany from vmall.eu and have the same Build and Cust N° - I guess this rom is not just for UK.
BTW where did you get it?
The phone line isn't run by Honor themselves. The rom came from Honor UK. It was given out to people unable to flash the MM beta.
Yes, the latest Xposed supports Huawei now without deodex.

I guess L21 is completely European and there are no fifferences at all.
BTW, i got back to stock with this B130, got an update to B140 afterwards.

No,because I'm using B151 for some time and I will change when they come out MM
I believe, however, that the Finnish and the UK are at the same firmware
while the Russian firmware it's different and creates problems
Honestly, I would expect all 'C432' ROMs to be the same, but all I know is a lot of people have been having problems!

eRecovery connects over WiFi to download a full rom image and reflash your phone completely to stock. Useful when you don't have a microSD card and cannot get the phone to boot into Android.

Well it needs a full update image to be available on the server, which currently isn't on the server. So it's pretty useless.

Shame you can't do a reboot into recovery2 with a command (e.g. adb reboot recovery2). That would be handy!

Nova Plus MLA.....

Is it possible, to open a thread for the Nova Plus MLA-LXX only?
Root, firmwareupdates , etc.
i think its a good idea...im in canada /rogers with mla-l03...and not much here for our version
Not rooted ( yet ) but got the unlock code, me too
have the code, yet not used, all my other mobiles ihave rooted
Like i said...our device is a one pretty young...birth in september so...theres no rush to "enter the dragon" :angel:
But very anxious to try nouEmui
i have tried the unlock code, and it works, but i have relocked it.....
I've the MLA-L11 too. would be awsome to have a working TWRP , no use in getting bt unlocked
unless there is a custom recovery. I'd say we find a dev and donate enough to persuade him to work
on a twrp !

You can try this to update to Nougat: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G79/g0/v73849/f1/full/update.zip Extract all the files and place them in a dload folder then place that on the root of your SD Card and install it using the three button method. If your Build Number is not showing up correctly after installing that install this: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...-L11_hw_eu/update_data_full_MLA-L11_hw_eu.zip using the same method as before. If it does not work the first time you may need to flash the stock EMUI 5 Nougat recovery which will let you install Nougat updates, I had to do this for the CAN-L01C432 variant as the update kept stopping at around 40%. EMUI 5 Nougat Recovery: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4T1GJ6EZ3LvTWNpZ0p5YXVINGs It is up to you to try it and I am not trying to make you as I do not have a MLA variant so I do not know if it will work or not. I hope this this helps.

Like I said you may need to flash the stock EMUI 5 Nougat recovery first before any of the Nougat updates work, the big update is the Nougat update and the smaller one is functionality. Let me know how it goes if you try it.

Yes, understand, which build is it and is there no problem to get the official one when i had install it?
If it doesn`t work how to get back to notmal firmware?
I have all my devices rooted , but this one not, there are to less informations about my build, therefore i have no twrp installed.
Im careful, my last device was honor 7, and i have no problem with twrp and root, but more informations.
Download is very slow.
Do you have made the update to nougat, and does it run without bugs?

Anyone Updated the firmware of the US version of the M3 to BTV-W09C128B003?

I found a BTV-W09C128B003 firmware update on Huawei's site using the firmware finder. My tablet has been rooted and it does not find this version when checking for software updates. I was wondering if anyone has updated their US version of the tablet to this version either through OTA or a manual update and if so, what issues it addressed.
I have a US model BTV-W09 and a build number of BTV-W09C128B002 every time I check for updates using the built in updater it says there aren't any. I am not rooted or unlocked.

I've tried the manual update and it just doesn't take it for some reason. I've tried to install it the DLoad method and it says it installs it but the version stays the same(002).
Sent from my BTV-W09 using Tapatalk
I tried the DLoad method, and I am still on 002 as well, but my root was wiped out and I seem to have the factory recovery now instead of TWRP. I did run the factory recovery and now the dpi change is sticking after rebooting like it used to before I messed with the scaling after unlocking the bootloader. I will most likely re-root the tablet tomorrow.
Same experience. I got BTV-W09C100B005, firmware finder found B006, flashed but still B005 showed. Not sure the kernel build date changed or not (says 4th Jan)

Mine updated via OTA today. I'm not rooted, totally stock. No issues so far.
I have TWRP installed. When I tried doing the OTA (B003) today, it rebooted to TWRP, started installing update.zip, then errored out. Not that I was expecting it to work, but FYI...
What's the DLoad method?

I have TWRP installed. When I tried doing the OTA (B003) today, it rebooted to TWRP, started installing update.zip, then errored out. Not that I was expecting it to work, but FYI...

Method to update huawei devices. One would insert the update.app file in a dload folder on the root of either the internal or external sdcard and press volume up, vol down and power to enter update mode.

I have tried multiple times with firmware finder and it downloads unpacks and goes through the update process, but it stays on B002 instead of moving to B003 and it keeps the September security patch. Oh well.

When do you do that key combination? Tried it at boot up and it just went into TWRP/recovery mode.

did you try that key combination when the device was powered off? I think You need to flash the stock recovery for it to go into that mode....

I just (finally) received notification of the pdate
Got the OTA update on both of my Mediapads this morning. The update seems to have solved issues with the touch screen response and scrolling Facebook seems smoother.

I just checked through the stock updater and received the update also. Who thinks this is the last update we get?

I am still hoping for an update to EMUI 5 and Nougat. Fingers crossed.

+100! Seriously. I don't find 4.1 bad at all with Nova Launcher -- I actually really *love* this tablet, but multi-window from Nougat would be nice!

I also use Nova Launcher and I am very satisfied. Past experience has shown that upgrades to Android are not always for the better… performance wise. The Lollipop upgrade crippled the Nexus 7.

Nougat should be coming soon, from what I've read on the chinese beta pages there's an estimate date of it being released somewhere in april I think. The Closed Beta started in the middle January. The current 4.1 is fairly stable, so when Nougat gets released I'm pretty sure the same will come!
Has anybody with an unlocked bootloader and root been able to successfully update? If so, what method did you use?
I have tried both options and the update but it keeps failing. Is there a way i can get the ota recovery back on there? I haven't been able to find it on here to download and install. Right now I have twrp and am rooted.
mine already updated to B003 through OTA about 3 weeks ago, the touch screen issue is basically fixed. Before that, i tried to install the update pack by myself but none of the trial succeeded.

How to update the Huawei Mate 9 Pro (Lon-l29c)'s firmware?

Is there anyone out there that knows how to update the Mate 9 Pro (Lon-l29c)? The firmware finder app seems suspiciously unable to supply an "authenticated" update package, & paying funky Huawei every time I need to update is a bit to much for me. I have the files for the update, I just have no idea how to go about making the phone use it even recognize the files. Are there any methods available other than the two I mentioned?

And you dont have to pay evertime you update it , if you pay 30$ you get 5 points which will allow you to update your phone 5 times

Not to be rude, but I posted to find another method other than funky Huawei. Even with the fact that it's just $30 for 5 updates is way more than I would ever spend for something I've done for free. I plan to have this phone for years, and I'm pretty sure there'll be more than just 5 updates in a year (there's been 3 in the 2 months I've owned the device already).

Do you need to do any extra steps on the Mate 9 Pro? Is not having an external sd card in our phones a problem?
Currently considering rebranding to C636, since that versions seems to get updates fastest.

Google Assistant
Hello,
I have a chinese LON-AL00, could anyone with an international version tell me if they got Google Assistant working?
I still stuck with Huawei's assistant HiVoice which greatly sucks :crying:, and i would like to know if changing firmware would actually get me the Google Assistant.
Thank you

Mine just showed up as authenticated today... After many days/weeks of authentication fails... Just takes time for Huawei to enable it for your device.
I'm on LON-L29C636B182 now.

I don't need an OTG cable or anything. Just download the files and put them into the correct folder. Launch the program, and then follow the instructions? No need to change any settings.
I think the instructions in the thread are a bit confusing..

Did you use FF ?
Did you use the OTA-MF or the FullOTA-MF?
Last time I tried for my C636 (B182) I wasn't authorised!

You just have to keep trying.. my authorised only happened yesterday .. just takes time... I use the smaller one to test authorisation saves downloading 2gb every day... then when it finally got accepted i cancelled and went with the full ota and installed that...

Tried again. I just kept getting that incremental stuff where it keeps wanting to download another patch.
So. I cleared the folder specified in FF, rebooted the phone and then it kept saying the connection was unstable.
So, I uninstalled FF Proxy and then reset the connection. File downloaded. Phone rebooted and said it couldn't verify the file and now.....
"Your device has failed verification" on boot up. It will work if I press the power button, but something is clearly wrong. It suggests I use 'ERecover' which states it will download the most recent build over Wifi.
Balls. Will give it a try - but I fear I've bricked the bloody thing!

Ah. Thanks for that. That's how you get around that problem!
Onto the new problem - "Your device has failed verification." Huawei's own solution failed. I presume it only works in Asia or China. It appears to want you to use 'ERecover' and wifi*not fully booted phone) to download a system image. Doesn't work. (Funky Huawei use this method, but they change your DNS so presumably ERecover points at their servers for a fee.)
Apparently factory reset doesn't work either and I didn't wanna start from scratch again.
I Googled about and this does seem a relatively common issue and someone else got the issue on a Huawei Mate 9 (not pro) doing the same thing. The OTA updates can cause this, he flashed an older firmware. I tried to flash the older firmwares, two of which got 'not authenticated' messages. So, going for broke, I had a go at installing the newest B182 firmware FULL again through FF. By some miracle - it worked and fixed the "Your device has failed verification." issue as well!!
Phew. So managed to get B182 on L29C636. :victory:
Only weird thing I got was Google Drive didn't want to work post installation(kept saying no network connection) - so I deleted all data from Google Play and this started working again.
Now that I know the critical point in using FF - "Download latest full package" as stated above. This shouldn't be such a ballache.
Can anyone confirm the benefit of converting the C636(Asian) to the European version- C432?
