It seems there are updates bu I'm stuck on B170

Hello,
I have a PRA-LX1 C432 unbranded and the updater keep saying I have the latest official update B170.
Using HFF we can see B181, 183 and 191 for C432 model. But... making a system dump of these builds we can see that there is in build.prop "generic_15" as phone model...
So I didn't install anything...
- Are the builds from HFF trustables ??
- Is there a way to force the update?
thanks!

I wonder if we will see 8.0, I think all the different build numbers are region based I wonder if any of the p9 lite Roms would work as technically same device PRA-LX1 isn't it

But there are more than one build 181, do you know which one you installed ?
your device name continues to be PRA-LX1 or moved to "generic_15" ?
Anything consistent in this update ?
thanks

Installed the FULL-OTA 181, and after that name didn't change to generic, stayed PRA-LX1... B181

Problem is that HFF gives a list of something like 5 packages Full OTA for PRA-LX1C432...
Don´t know the diferences between packages ...

you can try using Firmware Finder Free. its available for download it from Play Store

Mine is stuck too not haven't received a single update since I bought it still on emui 4.1 FF is useless it donwloads the update just fine but it always fails on the installation at 1% my build N is VIE-L29C605B131.

What country/region are you from?
What is the present firmware version B160 dated?
Firmware Finder (FF) (online version) shows B150 as the latest, so FF's probably not going to help you unfortunately: http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VIE-L09c627&firmware_page=0
Your only other option may be to convert to another region's ROM, which has received regular updates - e.g. Euro C432 ROM (latest is B382, dated March 2018). But, it's a risky procedure which involves unlocking the bootloader, rooting the phone, changing the vendor country info with SRK Tool, etc, etc.

Which update did you try? If you're still on 4.1, then you should try a much earlier update (i.e. the very 1st 5.0 update) - I'd recommend one of the B361s from here (or via the FF app): http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VIE-L29C605&firmware_page=0
Always download & apply the FullOTA-MF, in this case ~1.3Gb file size.
Once you have installed B361 successfully, try the B381 update (not the latest B382 as it will not work at this stage most likely). Again, download the FullOTA-MF (1.4Gb) & apply it.

I tried all of the full OTA on FF all them download just fine but every time the phone restarts to install the update for some reason it fails at 1% of the install.

try B202 first
I had an P9+ B130 version and was able to upgrade to B202, which is needed as a stepping stone to MIUI 5. I used FF with the proxy update scheme. The B202 update worked while other versions stopped at verifying the update, which is just what you experienced.

I'm out of luck then it seems that the B354 update is no longer available on FF which is the "steppingstone" in my case.

Same problem here. I'm still on vie-l29c636b103. Any solutions?

VIE-L09C432 lack of updates, who to blame?

I've got an P9 Plus (VIE-L09C432) and the latest update I get is B370 from March 2017. I can see from other users on XDA and Firmware Finder (FF) that there are newer updates out there. But neither "system update" on the phone, nor HiSuite finds anything newer than B370.
Why is different updates available only in some regions. Who decides this? Huawei or my phone company?
I tried updating via FF, but even though it makes the system updater find a newer firmware it failes when I try to download it. My next phone will by a pure Google phone.

The build have to be approved by Huawei in FF.
For your phone, the latest approved build are B381.

Yes, the question then is why do I never get any updates newer than B370? Is somehow Huawei or Telia (my phone company) holding the updates back?

Strange, i'm a swede with Telia...got B381 OTA weeks ago.
(it has nothing to do with Telia)

Sent a mesage to Huawei support and they asked for my IMEI number and would look into why my phone never got the updates after B370. Have not heard back from them yet, but I'm optimistic. At one time I have unlocked my boot loader and rooted the phone, but I relocked it and restored the phone via B360 which was updated to B370 via my one and only OTA received. I found I had little or no use for root on the phone.

B384 is now approved in FF. (Smooth update)
Security patch April 1
3D camera

Today I got B384 as official OTA ...

I gave up waiting for the updates via OTA and just used FF, now on B384 myself.

Huawei don't give much love to us up here in Scandinavia. Well known!! and specially L09-C432.
The L29C363 seems to get more attention.

Stuck on nougat

Hello, I have an VTR-L09C432B171, why am i not receiving any updates for security patches or oreo update ?
Country : Algeria ( north africa)

Maybe Huawei has forgotten your IMEI. You can update manually with Firmware Finder app (no root, no unlocked bootloader needed) or with my guide (unlocked BL needed).

A checksum error suggests that the file has gone corrupt during the download. You must pause the download after 1% or so, turn off the proxy or DNS settings, and then resume the download. Did you do that?

Hey man, I'm from Tunisia, I was stuck on VTR-L09C109B173 desperately waiting for Oreo until last month when I finally decided to rebrand my P10 to L29C432 with no regrets, I'm now receiving monthly updates from Huawei!
You have to unlock your bootloader in order to rebrand your device, If you didn't unlock it, I'm afraid that you can no longer get your unlock code as Huawei already shut down the last working link few days ago...

FF is supposed to work on Nougat... A wild idea: maybe you will get an OTA without a SIM card, or with a European SIM card? Or after a factory reset?

I see you try to download small update packages. You need the FullOTA versions. Try DNS and pause after 1%.

Clt-l09 c432 .161 version, update lost!

I have Clt-l09 c432 with .161 version.
I used to see 163 version and later 195 version in update settings..
I did not make update.
Yesterday, i have seen that my update has been lost.
There is no update anymore.
I have connected my p20 pro to my laptop.
I used to see updates there also.
But updates when i connect to my laptop, has been lost also.

Noone has any idea?

do you root ?

No, my phone is not rooted.

Do you contact Huawei support ?

I can assume that your cellular operator (assuming updates are still pushed through those) or Huawei pulled those updates because newer version was released.
Just out of curiosity, if you don't update your phone, why do you care the updates were pulled?

It is ok now. I could update to 9.0.0.203 through ota.
One month ago, i did update to 195 version. But system and camera was worse. So did returned to 8.1
Thanks for answers..
