@abirmallik11 Can I update my firmware again after rooting? Must I do I manually or it updates automatically? What do you mean by not getting updates anymore?

As far as I know and read, updating the firmware will remove the root access, so it doesn't worth... But fortunately I think it's solved,check this out and let me know your opinion: howtogeek.com/192402/why-androids-ota-updates-remove-root-and-how-to-keep-it/

Thanks @abirmallik11. Just for general knowledge, you told me in the private chat that you still using the old firmware for about 7 months and haven't noticed any diference or bugs comparing to the previous updated one you used to use.
Well, my current firmware is WW-13.2.9.105, which is already outdated. I'll try to downgrade to the one you told and root it, then, depending on the performance or any diference/bug I notice, I'll try to upgrade it to the latest firmware from ASUS website using FlashFire, to see if it can keep root.
I'll let you know. Thanks
@Osnapitzari did you do it? Did you root your phone?

SM-P585M got 7.0 nougat in Brazil

SM-P585M (10.1 Tab A 6 2016 with S pen) got 7.0 nougat in Brazil.
I Had TWRP, adaptive storage and root on 6.0 so I needed to update it via the Smart Switch PC software.
The software downloaded the flash version and flashed it.
I'd lost TWRP and root, and adaptive storage is not present either.
If someone know how to enable it back on Nougat please inform.
Best regards,

Does anyone have a reliable link to the update? Been waiting for the OTA for ages
Thanks!
Install Samsung Smart Switch and Upgrade from there.
If you installed root and TWRP they will be gone.

Just did it but smartSwitch isn't showing the update button. There's a lot of spam/scams from other download sites so i've been unable to get nougat.
Just got it, followed this guide from another post:
1. Download Kies 3 for PC http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/co...Kies3Setup.exe
2. Connect your device and ignore any suggestion to download SmartSwitch. (Kies keeps complaining and suggesting you download SmartSwitch)
3. Once you pass all the SmartSwitch suggestions you will be on a Kies screen that looks like its not detecting your Tab S2. From here Click "Tools"
4. Select Firmware Upgrade and Initialization.
5. Type your model name "SM-T710" (Make sure you type this in capitol letters)
6. Type your serial number when prompted.
7. Click OK when asked if you "want to proceed with the firmware upgrade and initialization" (all settings and data will be deleted but not after you press OK)
8. The next popup will be another to confirm the upgrade to OL6. (This is the last chance to abort the flash)
Thanks!

What is going on with Huawei and software updates?

I have a SIM free UK P9. Early on in its life it received updates happily but I have still not received Nougat and I'm still on the September 2016 Security Patch from Google. I've never rooted or tampered with the device, so where are my updates? Are Huawei simply too busy with other phones to bother updating flagships from only last year?
It is unacceptable to me that a £450 device from a manufacturer purportedly looking to compete with the big guns in the premium phone space cannot be bothered to keep its older handsets up to date. How is a user supposed to put his trust in a company when they seem to forget about their older devices once newer ones are released onto the market?
Meanwhile a friend of mine with a SIM free Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (!) has June's security patches.
Small wonder people don't take Huawei seriously. This P9 is a lovely device with great battery life and is still (for my usage) an excellent handset; however I will not be buying another Huawei until I am confident that they are willing to maintain support for older devices. So far it seems that some people in different parts of the world on various carriers *do* get updates (or at least have more recent ones) but Huawei seem incapable of rolling them out consistently and across the board.
Disappointing.
Anyone else have any thoughts on this? I don't wish to put Huawei down too much as I think they bring some interesting things to the market but one of my biggest bugbears is where manufacturers forget that after-sales support and updates are some of the things that contribute to people's perception of a company. Might as well just buy Doogees and Vernees off Banggood without it.
Don't wait huawei to send update,use firmware finder from play store,or dload method,or hisuite method,all these methods are officially safe and keep your warranty. What your build number ?
Build number is EVA-L09C432B182.
I'm not really into flashing ROMs these days as i don't want to mess anything up. I don't want to flash firmware that isn't UK SIM free either, and if I haven't had that update OTA then I assume it simply hasn't been released.
I don't have a PC anyway as I sold my Surface Pro and now only have a MacBook.
Use firmware finder from play store,and firmware finder proxy,it is the easy way,only search for the rom u want and let your system update search for update by using proxy,if from MM to nougat u will not loose anything.
You'd have to guide me through that step by step as to be honest I don't entirely understand anything other than the bit about using something from the Play Store
OK so I worked this out. The only firmware it says is approved for my device is the next up on the list - EVAL09C432B330-LOG.
This downloads fine through the stock Huawei update menu (as if i am just doing a normal update) and the phone reboots but then the installation fails, whether I choose the full package or standard update option.

do you have a way to get the files from firmware finder onto your SD card? If so create a folder called DLOAD on the root directory and then put the update file in that folder. Power off the phone and hold all three buttons (power and vol+/-) until you get the firmware updating screen.
Let me know if it still fails.
Thanks. Will doing this cause any mismatches in future and stop me being able to receive OTA updates, or affect Android Pay?
I have put the update.zip in a folder called dload in the root of the SD but neither the boot method of installation nor the dialler method seems to find it. I've tried with a different update.zip with the same result

Who told u that??, incorrect my friend,extract the update.zip and put only update.app inside dlod folder in the root of your sd card,it is explain hunderds of time everywhere
Hi, this isn't all that clear in the other instructions I've read, and historically flashing update.zip from the root of an SD card is quite a typical way to flash software, so you can understand the confusion!
Are you sure this will work? Other threads online indicate that flashing is much more difficult than this and requires unlocking the bootloader. Am I missing something here?
I also tried this but failed on my phone. I put the update.app in the dload folder but always fails after about 14%

after you download the zip file and then unzip it. Put thr UPDATE.APP in the dload folder on your internal memory. and then perform the update.

Just to let you know, after downloading a bazillion files and trying every method under the sun I finally got this to work. It is now running B386 firmware.
Using the manual update method didn't work for me; the steps I had to follow are as follows:
With Firmware Finder, choose the B386 full OTA package - check for compatibility first (it said mine was compatible with it) and choose to install via proxy. Set up your WiFi to run the localhost/8080 proxy settings as instructed by FF. While the file is downloading, remove the proxy settings from your WiFi, allow it to reconnect and continue the download.
I then just left the phone to its own thing. I was actually watching a video in the background when it rebooted itself and began the installation process, which didn't fail as I expected it to.
Everything seems to be running fine now.
Thanks to the person in this thread who suggested using Firmware Finder.

What firmware was you on before. I have tried this method with other versions but no luck. I will try with the B386.

I was on B182. If you're on the exact same firmware as me then try the steps above exactly and you might have more luck. I also deleted all old downloaded update files before I commenced with it.

No August update?

A lot of users are saying they got an update with August security patches and other improvements.
But now it's almost the end of August and I haven't have got any update after the July update.
Build number: LLD-AL10 8.0.0.170(C675)
Varient:Indian
Any help?
1.) Is your boot-loader unlocked ?
2.) Do you have a Custom Kernel or Recovery Installed?
3.) Are you Rooted?
If the answer is yes to any of them then thats why your not getting any OTA's, If Yes is on 1.) then simply issue the fastboot command to relock the device "fastboot oem relock <bootloader-code>" If its yes to 2.) / 3.) Then your going to need to flash the phone back to stock before then relocking the bootloader.

1) Was unlocked
2)Had TWRP
3)Was rooted
I switched back to stock because of constant bugs especially the camera(what's the use of keeping a camera oriented phone in the pocket if it's camera is of no use?)
I'd used HuRupdater to flash the firmware. Now bootloader's relocked and everything's working fine except updates.
I think I flashed the wrong firmware maybe ( I forgot the build number so had to guess. I was sure I had an LLD-AL10 and that there was a C675 and 8.0 in the build number. I matched the changelog with that of the last update I got and then I kinda found out that everything matched to LLD-AL10 8.0.0.170(C675) )
Would one stop getting updates if they installed wrong firmware?
Everything works fine except updates.( And the bootloader 'relocked' status in fastboot).
Should I just flash the August update with HuRupdater( that's gonna be a lot of hassle as I have to unlock bootloader and do all those stuff) or can I update via any other method?
Right you can use Firmware finder on your phone which is a good start.
So using FF select then next version up from your current and only select a OTA-MF, then make sure its for your phone by clicking check firmware access.
If its for your phone then simply use the in-app proxie and connect to a wifi point. Once you have done this edit that Wifi via Settings and change the Proxie to Localhost port 8080. Then go the System and Update.
Now it should download the small version OTA to your phone and reboot to try to install it, it it goes thought and installs without error then great, if it errors out when you boot back into android it will offer the Full OTA without using FF to which will then flash proper without losing data then see if OTA's work after that.

I checked and this is what happened.
FF detected my phone as LLD-AL10C675
The latest update that's is approved is
LLD-AL10 8.0.0.181(C675CUSTC675D1)
It is B181
But that update is from June. So I searched for LLD-AL10 and pressed ok , so that it shows all firmwares for lld al10.
And I think I found the one I have currently installed(build number and changelog matches) LLD-AL10 8.0.0.170(C675CUSTC675D1). It is from 11/7/2018. Everything above says either firmware not approved or has a wierd term cn in the available models section.
This is something I quite don't understand. When I check firmware access it says lld-al10:all-cn.
I think cn stands for China.( Uploading screenshot)
Would it be safe for me to install the update?
Also is it necessary to download the update just above the one I have installed now or can I skip to the latest one?
Sorry if that's a lot of questions.
I'm in a tight corner now.
I can't get any updates using the dns method or the in app proxy method.
This sucks as I was able to get an update using the dns method 3 weeks back. I didn't install it. I checked for updates, it showed updates, then I stopped dns and things went back to how it was(no updates ?). Today I tried again and nothing happened.
Crazy phone?
Are you selecting the smaller updates as it will not work with full ota's any more.

Well it worked for me from going from LLD-L31c432b133 to LLD-L31c432b136 as the small OTA came down failed to install so then it downloaded the full version are you sure your setting the WiFi to use the proxies using localhost and port 8080?

Yup I'm sure I did those right. I tried both the VPN and proxy methods. As I told VPN used to work.
Anyways I'm gonna wait and try it a few more times. Then I might use HuRupdater.

OMFG bro I fixed it.
You see Huawei had rolled out an update for the 'system update' app through playstore. I had updated it. And after I uninstalled the update for it, things are starting to work again ?.
Only 3 questions remains.
1) Can I install firmware that is not approved?
2)Is it necessary to install the update just above the version I
have currently installed?
3)Is it okay if FF says it's approved but has the part LLD-AL10-
all-cn:all ?
Does the cn part matter ?
Would be very grateful if you could help
1) Yes
2) No
3) CN= China. Personally I wouldn't, plus I don't speak Chinese , why would you want to ? I also like having full access to Google playstore.
On an aside, I'm beginning to get the impression you won't be happy till you really brick your phone . :laugh::laugh:

I have tried this procedure more than three times and it just doesn't work. I have the same model version C432 and the same firmware B133. I even downloaded the full Ota file and tried through SD card update ("#" #2846579#"#"), still nothing. When I connect it to Hisuite it says that I have the last official version. Any suggestions?

I used the FF app on mobile then used in app proxie connected to a wifi point and edited the connection to enable proxie on localhost port 8080. I also only downloaded only the small OTA, however it will fail to install then once you rebooted back into android go system update and then press the 3 dots and go for Full Download that will fix it.
Just a point you may have the same Firmware even the same model but they are not made equal.
Also check Google play store app for Huawei System Update it should look like the picture that's attached then click uninstall and reinstall install the app too before starting as reinstalling that app can help alot.

Many thanks for your prompt reply.
So Ive already done all this because it may be related but no luck.Last time I used FF was to get the B133 which already didnt work on the 7th August,I then uninstalled the FF app,stopped the proxy localhost etc. and right after that I did the update check through system update and the B133 FULL was offered to download,so the B133 was made properly through system update right after all the procedure with the FF.

Try uninstalling the update for the system update app then use the VPN or proxy method.
Maybe the update just hasn't reached you like me.

Unfortunately you can't downgrade. Once you have flashed a higher bootloader version you are stuck with it.
If you are on bootloader v5 you may be able to downgrade to the last Oreo build, I am not 100% sure on that though.
Only if they are same bootloader

You need to be rooted to be able to get that working again, some roms also have that patched already...
Although the thread is about the s7 I believe it is exactly the same for our note 8.

I dont want to root again.... rooting will not let banking apps work.moreover if i wanted to root. Root files for note 8 pie are not available right now. I installed patched app but it does not have heart rate monitor and spo2 which renders heart rate sensor useless.... thats why i am so desperate for that app

As far as I am aware it is not possible without root.

I dont want to root. Moreover rooting files are not available for pie update.... so i think i am left with only 1 option to wait for someone to patch samsung health app to include heart rate sensors.....

You can flash TWRP, copy /system/build.prop to the PC or SD Card, edit it on the PC, put it back in /system.
Once you are done, just flash stock revovery via TWRP.
It sounds hard, but it's eazy if you know what you are doing. Banking apps will still work, and with build.prop edited s health will work too.
I am not gonna walk you trough the entire process but this is a summary.

Oooh that, it's nothin.
You just need to hold volume up + bixby and power just before the phone auto restarts from download mode. When you do that it will boot twrp.
If you don't understand it go watch MaxLee on youtube, his method of flashing twrp on s8/n8

The way I know it, there is no way without twrp or root, and you said you don't want root because of banking apps.
If you flash twrp, do the thing with build.prop, and then flash stock recovery, you could still recive OTA updates and banking apps will work.
You just have to set up s health before the next OTA because that will revert built.prop back to normal.
But as long as you set up s health before that it will be ok.

That was downloading s health 4.8 version install it and open it. It will stuck at loading screen. Update it and it will work fine. Earlier i get it working that way when my device has oreo version. But now after pie update when i try to install any s health apk before version 5 that is 4.5, 4.7 or 4.8. I always get a message app not installed. After version 5 app get installed but again with root problem. Can u help me with installing old version. I dont know why s health old version is not getting installed. I had some other apps that are now discontinued. That apps get installed easily

The reason you can't install the modded version is because the version that was modded is less than pre-installed version on the device. As of now, you can't downgrade apps, only upgrade. Your only option is to wait for someone to patch a later version from the version you got installed on your phone.
I think someone can even just change a number in AndroidManifest.xml install it and then just upgrade.
I'm sure a patched version will pop-up again somewhere on xda, just make sure it's later version than the version pre-installed into the system.

I have OP10P which is global unlocked at all so I didn't need to switch from chinese coloros to global/europe OOS.
Ok, that was nice
I have eu op10pro unlocked and rooted.
I've got a guide on how to root, plus the stock and patched boot images, I'll release them on each new update.
All will be EU
(Guide) Rooting, payload dumper, magisk_patched guides NE2213
Hi all, Thought i'd share a guide on how to get these boot images yourself as well as all the files required, plus the patched boot.img if you just want to go ahead and boot/flash it without obtaining one yourself Please read the process before...
forum.xda-developers.com

You'd need windows..
So if you're on a Mac like I am for work then you could use boot camp and have a dual boot or just get parallels, have an OS within an OS, it's £70 a year but it works extremely well..

Your phones saying you have an update?
If you're rooted then you do not want to update the conventional way..
This is in my guide on rooting mate. Just follow it.
In short to update you do this.
1. Install oxygen updater
2. Change update method to full in the app.
3. If an update is available then download the whole thing, it'll be big.
4. Once downloaded, back out and navigate to the normal phones system update and click the 3 dots, then select local upgrade.
5. Take the update and let it install.
DO NOT REBOOT WHEN PROMPTED!!!
6. Back out and open Magisk.
7. Click the top install button and then install after OTA.
8. Reboot and you're updated and rooted.
I'm on NE2210_11_A.13 too, local install doesn't work (it doesn't recognize the Oyxgen ROM)

Turn on airplane mode,turn off wifi, then reboot, does it show it then?
read this the other day, someone was able to get it to show by doing something like this.
Or could be a Magisk module causing it, if you disable them then reboot, that may make it work.

It doesn't show if there is an update pending to install. Solution is to reset the phone and not connect it to the internet or to delete the installation hidden files.
Unfortunately the problem is not finding the option, but that when you pick the .zip for Local Install it says it's invalid. I've downloaded the ROM .zip file directly from Oxygen Updater and from external links to no avail.

Ahh I see so can I clarify, at the moment you're on the Chinese OOS?
And you're attempting to install another regions firmware?

Correct, NE2210_11_A.13 is the Chinese version. I'm attempting to simply install an OxygenOS official ROM but it's not allowing to. I have an OP8 Plus and it worked very easily, simply pick the original ROM, local upgrade (now the option is called "Local install" instead) and then clean cache and good to go. This is not working now for whatever reason. I tried both in A.12 CN to A.12 EU and A.13 CN to A.12 EU.
