Yes it is worthy. You get a lot of features. But Do the update only by using firmware updater. Always choose the option "Send to updater".

Hows the Battery Backup of Nought ?
will follow this tutorial
http://ministryofsolutions.com/2017...gat-b385-update-emui5-middle-east-africa.html

I don't think it is worthy to upgrade. I already downgraded to MM again. UI is not much more ugly now, notification bar symbols are too small and have lots of bugs compared to MM. Bluetooth, phone, battery life...nothing works as good as MM.
For example when i turn on bluetooth, it connects to my car immediately in MM, but in nougat sometimes they pair, sometimes i have to pair manually.
Battery life is really bad not even uncomparable.

No need to follow tutorial. Just check system update. Official one is rolling out.

for my part I like the new UI much much better. It feels like I own a completely new phone. Everything looks better. And the battery life is probably the same.. 4-5h sot for me. 1 1/2 days for me..

Use firmware finder app. And install through system update by proxy. Do this if you are not getting normal update.

yes.. i already installed in Cell. But i think its not official App from Huawei.
also in this app they show number of packages like OTA, MF, Full OTA etc. which one should install, if this method i follow than will it void warranty ?

True indeed. Unfortunately I can't post the link but send me a message if interested. Nevertheless, I will see if I can post a Mega link after some time.

Exynos update is only available in one region, though it’s only a matter of time before the update becomes available to others either through Samsung Kies, an OTA or both methods. To check for the OTA, you can always head to Settings> System> About Device> Software Update.:thumbup::thumbup::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:

How to install kazakstan firmware to india s5 exynos octa????
hi i have downloaded the kazakstan firmware and i want to install it to s5 india..
my phone is not rooted
please tell me how can i install the firmware?
I am on my 3rd reinstall, first I upgraded via Odin on top of kitkat, and system was too slow, 2nd I rooted via auto root (It works btw) and apparently I deleted with Titaniun Backup something important and system refused to boot. 3rd reinstall I just rooted and deleted some bloatware and everything is working ok. This is Multilingual btw. overall not so fast no so slow, I use cm12 official nightly in another device and its just a bit slower. Used Sammobile link to get the file
Hi! i downloaded it today and it's running now! works great! i don't know how to root the device with android 5
It works perfectly. Although I tried different versions of the country. Can we root that? Is anyone try to root it?

Works great on my C470! Really happy with it, EMUI 4.0 is definately better than 3.0, really happy with it Xposed also working great.
Only funny thing is that it says "Country: Thailand" in OP, but you cant set your region to Thailand because the option is not there lol.
Which region is this C470?
I think it's either Cambodia or Singapore, not sure about it. Never know what region to expect if you buy a phone in the ASEAN haha!

You need to be rooted and do some modifications in the system files to enable multiple users. You should Google it, there are a few guides out there on how to do this. Don't really recommended though, theres this bug on some apps that you have installed on both users. If you open the app as a non main user or guest it will not load and instantly crash, and if you go back to your main account it will suddenly do the same. If you reboot the phone it will be uninstalled, together with all the data. It happened to me with Line, and lost all my conversations because of that.
Also, I have no idea what Keyguard is so I am not missing out on much XD

So it's not really compatible with B180? Sad, no suppprt for our model around the web too.
I upgraded from B180 so it should work. Just make sure you are on stock recovery, unroot and have the original ROM on your device first before updating.

Any issues with Xposed. I assume you deodexed the rom for it to work.
I came from C470B180. If you want to go back to stock recovery you should extract it from the rom of the original firmware of your deice, and flash it with adb.
No problems with xposed so far, and yes I deodexed. The xposed for emai topic mentioned some trouble with bluetooth specific stuff but it's all stuff I dont use so for me everything works fine.

b170/b183/b194/b199/b200/b550/b551/b560 to Marshmallow via HICARE

hello, few days ago there was update from germany via hicare app, now I have changed region to german and it working very well. Update steps:
1 upgrade hicare application to newest version.
Run APP - >>Accept terms. ->> choose europe (if there is no update still choose germany) -->> OS upgrade early adopters
u'r welcome

That was how they provided MM for everyone and it is not new information. However b550/b551/b560 are MM builds.
I disagree totally with Azaradel this WAS new information to me and I thank kiamikadze for sharing it.
Really don't know why everyone is ignoring this thread!
It is the easiest way to upgrade to Marshmallow.
No worries about doing something wrong as it comes straight from the Huawei servers.
No worries about which version you are currently running.
I'm happy that for everyone that has heard about that method, the update appeared within seconds. However, I changed already to many languages in the HiCare app and even downloaded the HiCare update from the market to do this "OS Upgrade". The EMUI updater instead still says: "No updates". I'm on B194 with a Swiss SIM. Maybe having the right right IMEI is important? Someone has a clue? I want to update the official way, not via a forced method.
Thanks, my phone is in the Asia pacific region, with location set to Australia. I am also able to get MM update with the help of post. The trick is to opt in for OS upgrade early adopters
Wow, thanks. Upgraded to 6.0. No regional change was needed though

Apparently huawei said they can upgrade your phone if you call them as you have the correct build for upgrade. Huawei said this when I rang them. Ring them and ask them to push upgrade from their side through hicare.

Seems to be only minor visible changes. No new options I can see.
One thing that did change was that I can use EE's WiFi calling, which wasn't available before on the beta. This was activated automatically by EE via a text.
Camera, WiFi, network all seem same.
Will have to wait maybe a couple of days to see how the battery life is.

It just doesn't work, I downloaded the B182 ROM last night and installed it, no problems.
On Firmware Finder there are a couple of ROMS viz. B360, B361 and another B361, I've tried to download all 3 and flash them (using dload method) and have had NO success whatsoever with any of them.
I am now reverting to checking the update page in settings every hour or so!
BTW I've tried the dialler method too and that doesn't work neither
What's the huawei updater way?
Why is this phone such a piece of crap, differing version per region for what is the same software.

Rollback package for EVA-L29C636B361?

Hi--I managed to get Nougat B361 on my EVA-L29C636 and I cannot get scrolling to work at all on my device. I cannot even get to the Settings app on my device. The phone calling works and wifi but that is about all so my device is kind of useless. I've noticed that there are rollback packages for the EVA-L09 and EVA-L19 devices (middle east and Russian) but I have not seen anything for C636. Does anyone have any advice on how to get back to Marshmallow B168 or B191?
Thank you in advance for any info!

I wish I could do that, but I've borked my P9 so badly with the OTA B361 that I have NO scrolling function to even set the Proxy in my Wi-Fi settings. I can open apps but cannot do much more. If I long press on my Wi-Fi connection, nothing opens so I cannot even enter "local host" etc. I did manage to download the B389 package using the PC version of Firmware Finder and then transferring it to my SD card then "dload" ing it, but that did not work. I am now looking for suggestions on how to get back to Marshmallow and B191 which was working well on my device. It all started with that OTA B361 update which I had waited SO LONG for and it turns out I would have been better off without it.
Really appreciate the suggestion tho! What would be the procedure to rollback to B191 if there is any way?

There is Rollback Package for EVA-L29 Middle East and Russia. It should work in C636 Asia to because they turn your phone to C900B300 after the Rollback.
But u must find a FULL MM Firmware to C636 to downgrade with.

Yes, I saw that rollback package but I was afraid to use it (since I have C636, but I have nothing to lose now anyway I guess. I have the full B168 package so maybe I'll give it a try. Thanks again! I'll post here again with the outcome when I get a chance. Much appreciated.

There is Rollback Package for EVA-L29 Middle East and Russia. It should work in C636 Asia to because they turn your phone to C900B300 after the Rollback.
But u must find a FULL MM Firmware to C636 to downgrade with.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU for that link and for your excellent suggestion. The Russian Rollback worked perfectly I am now back on B191 and all is good! I live in Canada and my stepdaughter has a Chinese sim card (active) and when I plug that in my P9, I immediately get an OTA update notice to B361 which borked my phone when I let it install. I am tempted to try another update (this time on a clean system) to see if it works better. At least now, thanks to you, I know how to get back to Marshmallow.

Nice to hear it worked.
The only way to get OTA to C636 is if u have a Asian simcard.
I dont know why the OTA messed up your phone but it should have been ok.
How large is the OTA? It should be over 1gb since u go from MM to Nougat, if the OTA is something like 500mb then something is wrong.
Edit:
If i upgrade manually to B361 u must find a Firmware that is FullOTA-MF-PV

Hope you had a great sleep. Just to finish up on this thread: I tried to download and install the B361 OTA again. It installed fine but again I had no scrolling (up,down,left, right - nothing). Phone and wifi both work as does bluetooth. An update to B389 is shown in Firmware Finder but I still have no control to download and install by proxy because I cannot change the properties of the wifi network. So I can't check to see if that update would improve anything (I highly doubt that it would anyway). So, thanks to Mostar088, I am easily able to get back to B191 and use my phone again . Conclusion is that B361 just does not work on EVA-L29C636 in case anyone else reads this. Once again, a big Thank You to Mostar088. I know how important it is to have experienced users on these forums and the help they can offer. I am a contributor on Crackberry.com mostly for the dying BB10 and am just learning android. I have a loooooong road ahead of me.:laugh:

Sounds like the OTA is corrupt somehow, never heard about this problem?
It's a pitty u cant upgrade to Nougat, u get a whole new phone with. Nougat, it's so much better.
If u upgrade with B361 OTA u could try to use the DNS method in Firmware Finder pc version and try to upgrade to B389 with HiSuite on the pc?
U need to follow the guide and change the DNS in Router Settings and then connect the phone to HiSuite and try to upgrade.

Thought that I better try the DNS method since you mentioned it. Results were as I expected, sadly. Once again, the OS update (B389) did install using this method, but again, scrolling was non-existant. So, back I go to B190. Nougat just does not work on my EVA-L29C636. Thanks again for the suggestions.

Ok, strange bug?
U have no warranty on the phone? A Service Center that can fix it?

No--no warranty and I called Huawei Canada but since this device was never available in Canada, they will not even look at it. Maybe if I go back to Hong Kong (where it was purchased) some day lol.
