Full UPDATE - Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello,
Shouldnt a FULL UPDATE install "all" necessary like partitions for the system etc, i mean everything?
Why am i asking this?
Because recently i debranded my P9+ and now i have 3 problems:
1. Icons look like Huawei P8 series
(@Emui 3.x)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Some features are not function as before, like - Themes (can download but can't apply)
3. Factory reset now always goes as "lowlevel reset"
As my understanding this might be because when failed on debranding phone woke up asking decryption storage password (and shouldn't) then he did a wired wipe out before restart again and then started with the problems i said on top
I also know it affected system folders in any way because, for example, at locked screen when I press settings there are none "subscriptions" to choose.

I'm missing more features that only icons.
Probably everything because of the lowlevel restart.

Just i said i had the same problem when i debrand my L29C636 and that fix it for me.

flash all zip file with twrp , then reboot and force flash update.app with 3 button method, now everything is stock

I had the same problems when I flashed a 'full' ROM as well (B190, for reference). Had the same ugly icons you mentioned, and I had lost MagazineUnlock plus all stock themes.
In the end I found the themes, and it seems to have fixed both the icons and unlock.
Main issue now, is that each time it does a factory reset (when unlocking boatloader for instance), it fails and prompts me to run it again, which it then completes successfully. Not sure what I messed up on there, but it's just a minor annoyance whenever I have to flash an update now.

please help,green line on the screen

hi,
last night i connect my ds7 to the computer and in the internal memory was a file named 'driver.rar' i deleted the file and disconnect the device.
since i disconnect,there is a green line in the screen.i reboot the device,formate,factory reset..nothing..still a green line
i dont think is a hardware problem
i need your help
Need more info. What ROM are you on? Have you done a factory reset?
yes i did
nd im on 3.2
Flash a custom ROM, if it doesn't help, then you have a bad display.

are you sure?everything started since i deleted the driver.rar from the internal sdcard
It's a concidence, android cant even read rar files without downloaded apps.
You can make a blank file named driver.rar and it cant tell the difference
I dont want to install custom rom
can i reinstall 3.2?
How can i be sure that is a bad display?
i think you dont understand me.
i removed "drivers.rar" from the root dir
i searched how can i root my device and i found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411193
and in step 6:he ask me to copy the drivers.rar but i remove it and since i removed i have a green line...

Step #6 asks to copy Drivers.zip not Drivers.rar, there is a difference. Like TheManii states, a DS7 can't read a "rar" file, only a special app made for that purpose can.
I don't have any "rar" files on my DS7 but do have such files on my PC.
Drivers.zip is a folder that comes with a new DS7 although there a few that claim that it didn't.

Its a coincidence. Trust us.
You can tell if its a bad display if by after a factory reset you still see it or if you install a custom ROM and still see it.
If you aren't going to listen to us, when three people have answered your question, why are you here?:highfive:
i cant install custom rom cuz i do not have the "driver" in step 6
factory reset didnt work
please help...
by the way
just now i understand that i did factory data reset and not factory reset
update
i install cm9 rom and still have a green line on the screen
even in the recovery..
what can i do?
why the line comes?

I have this too , but does not affect my performance.
I think i will live with it, but curious too how to solve
what version have you?
edit file /data/cust/prop/local.prop and change ro.config.hw_showTestInfo=true to false, or if you dont have this file write this to /system/build.prop
P7-L10 V100R001C00B136
mine is that
if is this official why show this ? it seems a beta version
if you have "huawei cust fail" problem you have probably phone branded to vendor not listed in cust.img partition (for example my phone was branded by t-mobile/cz) -> solution is partialy debrand your phone -> unpack b133sp01 rom and flash update.app(size cca 18kb) file from vendor folder-> now you have hw/eu vendor

Hi, I can understand that this might cause the defect reminder and huawei cust fail, but is this also the reason why it always fail once i get to 100% of any rom installation, factory reset and user reset? I always get that when i reset my phone. Also on your previous comment back in Dec 2014, you mentioned something about editing and typing something in the vendor folder, where can i see that and what should I type in? thanks.:angel:
same for me too, got cust failed error when I arrive to 100%. I tried flashing the vendor rom but also failed...
I have a p7-L10 bought in japan, sim free, with nothing special on the rom.
And also I can't downgrade with the b133 rom, it shows me an error right away.

Thanks
Thanks for posting the link.
Once you have the ROM flashed there is 1 free Hidden Space app (Calculator) and 2 paid apps $0.99 each for Web Login and Clock ... these allow you to secretly access the hidden space. But you don't need the apps to create a personal space or a downloaded (Tor space, WeChat , on the website)
Hi
I would like to try this rom, but I would like to know if I can easily step back..
I'm currently using marshmallow, is correct to make a nandroid backup, then flash and test this 5.1.1 rom and, in case, flash my backup to restore MM?
Will this rom work with MM bootloader and radio or will it affect my daily use?

Hi Marcuzio81
Yes the ROM will work with your current radio and bootloader, just back up your current image , flash our ROM , Try it out, and restore to your original image. I also recommend you try a Hidden Space App which you can get from the play store.
Here is the link to the currently free Calculator app.

Can you provide details about the device, I assume its a Google Nexus 5 not the 5X, since the ROM only supports the older model. Can you also provide the version of the bootloader and radio.
Thanks
I confirm it's the fabulous, ever green nexus 5
My bootloader is hhz12k, I'm not able so far to check the radio but I suppose it's the latest one coming with MM AS I've flashed the google factory image...
You could flash back to factory 5.1.1 "hammerhead" and try flashing our ROM from there. I will see if I can reproduce your issue from MM.

I have L29C567B183 and I flashed this rom B211. It booted up however many functions does not work properly for example I cannot get into developer option, backup and restore will reboot the phone, fingerprinting does not work, .... I flashed Kangvip B186 without problem. I do not think it will work properly on your phone unless your firmware is up to date (B211).

There is no Kangvip B183 for Mate 9. Only Kangvip B175, B186, and B211. I am on C567B183 and I flashed KangVip B186 without problem. Since you are on B130 you should start with Kangvip B175 and see if it works.

you must have base rom B211 for flash rom kangvipB211. I think you must rebrand to rom china and update ota to B211.
Anybody here already testing it? Any clue if the GPS bug is solved?

Download that app I linked to and install it.
Then download full zip of the ROMyou need ideally, but you can also try incremental (for example this one - it is A.12 build which is next from what you have: https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/package/f99da5215db535177dabb71960ec6365a63af389.zip) and save that zip to your root folder. Then open that installed app (called "system update", it is in app drawer normally), top cog, find that ZIP and install it. We will see, if it will do some job.
Next OTA is A.13: https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/package/7548d30abac02bde85a403bcc3a218df868e1910.zip
And A.14: https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/package/e443d7662829c933a0da968a62bf080aacab37c9.zip
But first install that A.12 and we will see, after reboot, if it offers you next updates. If not, install one by one those I linked you here, otherwise wait for any full zip for the NE2215 version (I cant find full zip now, but it should be somwhere).
The same for A.12. I bought this mobile with installed global ROM. Maybe there are some settings which block all installation s?

Nothing special, you just need to get full zip of any upcoming build, which has size around 4.3 GBs. Eventually you can download latest full zip via oxygen updater by enabling advanced settings and choosing EU, India or global (in fact it shouldn't matter which you choose, but you will have corresponding stuff in your device then, but nothing that breaks your using), download it, then flash it normally via that app I linked you and you tried to install that incremental.
On the other hand, fastboot enhance could reflash your device from the scratch, but it also will wipe it during that process.
