I have windows phone 8 developer account.
i have installed preview for developer app from store.
after configuring app...i went to setting > phone update > check for update.
And i got notification a new update is ready for dowload.
i did not updated...because my data plan is costly...and before download i want to know...what is this update?
is it windows phone 8.1?
* I am using lumia 520 with Lumia black update.
As its latest current update.
So pls some one tell me...what is this new update, i am getting notification for that?
It's one of the many minor updates that get released through the developer preview, not 8.1 yet... It shows you the version of the update, so I think it's logical that if it says 8.0.105xx.xx that it's not 8.1.
You can update over wifi, infact, that's recommended, rather than the mobile network.
There's a confirmation to install the update after downloading it anyhow. Basically, if you see a notification that there's an update you can download, but it doesn't tell you what the update *is*, you can safely approve the download (though you may want to be on WiFi, if you have capped cellular data). Once you have downloaded the update, you'll get another notification telling you what the update is (what gets updated, and to what version) and will have the option to install that update or postpone it. If you choose postpone, it will periodically remind you every day or so.

First of all, you didn't specify what's your current version. So i guess its either GDR2 or GDR3.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Second of all let me tell you about WP8 updates:
GDR2 = Update 2
OS version: 8.0.10327.77 or 8.0.10328.78**
GDR3 = Update 3
OS version: 8.0.10501.127, 8.0.10512.142, 8.0.10517.150, or 8.0.10521.155*
(Source: Windows Phone 8 update history)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What you got is a GDR3 update, and if you already had the GDR3, thats probably a minor update fixing some targeted issues, so, my suggestion is: Go for it, update it, its safe.
P.S. It will not void your warranty, it's an official OTA update. Unlocking and Rooting will void your warranty.
Oops! Sorry for not mentioning that. Yes I have GDR3 installed and I am using lumia 520
Thanks!

Greetings.
Very recently, there was an official/OTA update for P7-L10. And I subsequently downloaded and tried to update it as soon as it finishes downloading.
But, when it tried to update, it keeps failing. Is the update wrong? or is there something missing that I am not clearly seeing it?
My current version, out of the box - P7-L10V100R001C00B133SP01
and the update (online update) is (as mentioned) : P7-L10_SouthPacific_C00B620.
Please advise me on what might have went wrong?
Thank you.

Hey there, thank you for the reply.
I'm not sure, how to check. But I have never rooted this phone yet.

Do you have TWRP or CWM installed? Was your phone brand new or pre-owned? Do you have custom rom or stock rom?

Nope, I do not have those installed. This is a brand new phone running stock rom.
Ok, I guess your phone is not branded (vodafone, orange, etc.), so get the b609 update and install it.
If you had firmware 133, how come you got SAE update? Where did you buy your phone?

Yep, it's not. Hmm. I am unsure as to how or where I can get the B609 update, because ever since I first laid my hands on this phone, it has been running B133 out of the box. And, since, in between then and now, I have been going to the system update to look for any update prior to this one that I am currently having a problem to update, and there was no new update (until, again, now )
Also, previously I did went online on my PC to find an update B609, and downloaded it and tried to do a local update. and unfortunately for me, it caused my phone to be soft-bricked, and back then, I have not turned on my USB debugging or did any major changes to my phone, thus, requiring me to send my phone to the service centre. So, I'm kinda weary about downloading an update online from my PC, as of now.
Well, I am not sure what SAE is, and to answer that question, again, I do not know how I may have gotten the update. I bought my phone from where I am currently living, Malaysia.
Can you make a print screen of your SAE update problem?
sorry, but um, can you please enlighten me as to what is SAE? I am truly sorry for not knowing this.

Hey there, I couldn't really printscreen it, as it was in the updating process (the one with the Android bot and the black screen behind) anyway, it just it failed. That's all.
Here's however, a printscreen of the update.

So OTA fails., what's the code of error (why it fails)?
Also, you can try manual update or the "3 button update" (it is described in the forum).
But the most important thing is to know why it fails.
P.S. You can take print screens from the Hisuite during update or when it fails

Hi piring, I've encounter the same issue with updating from B133SP01 to B620, my set is a"SOUTH PACIFIC" model.
I even brough my set to the huawei service centre to see if the technician over there can solve the issue but unfortunately, they are just as clueless as I am..... They did a factory reset of my set and tried to install the update again but the update still fail to install. There is no error code but only "fail" word appearing. They claim it's because my set was rooted but when I have unroot my phone, it still.can't update.
So if you managed to successfully updated your set, can you share with me how to go about it? Thanks.

Oh. well, to be honest, I kinda given up hopes on how to update it. And with that, I am still clueless as to how to update it. I have tried using HiSuite, but to my surprise, HiSuite mentioned that my phone is already up to date. So, I am honestly puzzled as to how my phone is pushing for an OTA, but HiSuite insists that my phone model is of current and latest update.
Sorry I am unable to help you.

Hi piring, same thing goes for my HiSuite as well. It's kinda of sucks that the update is available but can't update. It's even more worse that Huawei service centre cannot do anything about it and just tell me forget about the update and ignore the notification. Now i have a phone with a permanent notification mark that i cannot get rid of.
P7-L10 is a good phone but the support i'm getting from Huawei service centre is really unprofessional and disappointing.
But anyway, thanks for your reply.

You need to use rollback package to go back to a previous version. You can find these on Huawei site or use huawei firmware finder by team MT and you are good to go.

Then that is a bit of a problem... Why don't you take it to customer service and ask them to downgrade to KK.
might or might not work...
there is no official roolback package , he should unlock then download 4.4 package and then install throw fastboot .

I think, that won't work. You can not force downgrade by using the 3 button method...
Im gona mention that its not possible to force rollback using the 3 button method as it gets stuck at 3 percent. About customer service, i live in kinda a hole and the nearest customer service is like 100 km away.

Yes, forget to mention that... but anyway this is really the last method...
Yesterday (2nd febr) suddenly a message popped out saying I have an update. I tapped on it, the phone (P20 Pro) downloaded it all, it got installed but then this screen appeared:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2IiN-auezM
eRecovery "Update & System Recovery" is not working since its a device from Italia and I am in Hungary.
Bootloader locked. No root.
Any ideas? How can I make it good again?
Also, at the service center they told me I might need to replace the motherboard. Is it seriously possible I need to replace it? (I hope it is not necessary...)
If they replace it for free, backup your data and go for it.
If not, then use the modded hisuite and firmware finder update method that you can find on the forums here.
Thank you. Could you link it?
I tried FF, since my phone won't get over eRecovery, I only tried it with desktop.
The DNS in the router has been set correctly, but my phone just don't connect to it.
I had the same, mine died and had to be replaced
Thank you! I guess I will just sell it, and get a Xiaomi.
Did you claim the code to unlock when was available?. If you do.. just enter to bootloader mode.. unlock... and flash stock recovery. I can help you with that. If you don't... huawei services is the way to go.
Nope, I have the phone since Nov 2019 from a second-hand seller.
Huawei Services only replaces the motherboard for around 90.000 HUF ( around 273 €) what is simply don't worth it.

AFAIK eRecovery doesn't care about your current region. It will just try downloading the ROM for the region installed on your phone.
Did you get any error messages trying to use it?

I know it sounds unrelated and stupid, but can you try and disable IPv6 on your router? I recall some issues with it regarding manual updates by eRecovery. Can be completely unrelated, but worth trying.
It is completely dead. Thanks for help!
