USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
I spent the last 3 days trying to get a way to flash roms, recoverys, etc. Finally, I managed to edit the B107 UPDATE.APP so probably can be flashed using the default recovery
This haven't been tested yet, probably the flash will fail, but we got a chance
You will loose root, this is like a B104 to a B107 update, you may experiment data loss so, backup is recommended
How to install
1- Download the edited ROM: https://mega.co.nz/#!7143GDxA!B5jM-A9FRYpsRs3vReeJSnbnirxLM22bUQt8YhCy8Ro (926.1 MB)
2- Extract dload folder in your sdcard (full route, /sdcard/dload/UPDATE.APP)
3- Go to, Settings->About Phone->Update System->Local Update
4- The phone will reboot and will start the flash automatically
5- Remove the dload folder or rename it
6- Report any trouble or if succeded
7- Thak you for try, it's done!
How to know if you really flashed the edited ROM?
1- Go to Settings->About Phone
Emotion UI Version will display: EmotionUI_1.6-Repacked
If this don't appear and the flash was sucessful, root your phone, and open build.prop, go to the end of the file and it should look like this:
Code:
ro.product.board=P6-U06
ro.product.brand=Huawei
ro.product.name=P6-U06
ro.product.device=hwp6-u06
ro.confg.hw_systemversion=P6-U06V100R001C00B107_SYSTEM

ro.build.version.emui=EmotionUI_1.6-Repacked
I got a report that flash fails. Probably there's a checksum that prevents modifications.

whats different with this than the non repack one?

No, that's not the point of the rom. It is only there to test if there is a possibility to flash on this phone and if yes, how. This is essentially just a step towards roms that have customizations etc.
Yeah, and, as i said, rom flash fails. I think there is a MD5RSA checksum in the recovery that prevents modification

hello
I have a phone Ascend P6
But does not support Arabic Language
Can you help??
It does support. But maybe you have the Chinese firmware.
Either way, check settings>language and input - if it has Arabic language.
If not, check settings>About phone> Build number. And post it here so that we can confirm if its Chinese firmware or not, and also if your mobile is unicom version.
And for latest international firmware (which contains Arabic language), download and install this: http://huaweinews.com/2013/12/ascend-p6-b125-firmware/
Installation process is available on that site.
Thank you very much
This is the number

I do not know anything about the update :crying:
Please I want the way to update step by step

Seems like you have the Chinese firmware.
Installation steps are easy. Just a matter of copy-paste and click a button.
1) First download the file: http://dl.huaweinews.com/Roms/Ascend-P6/B125.zip
2) Then Unzip it. There will be a "update.app" file.
3) Then create a folder named "dload" in your memory card. Copy the file "update.app" to the "dload" folder.
4) Go to settings>About phone> System update> local update.
Wait for the process to complete.
Good evening, sir
Thanks for your help:good:

Make sure of several things:
1. Put the UPDATE.APP in a dload folder on your sd card.
2. Make sure the sd card is formatted as fat32.
3. Make sure that no USB is plugged in while you try to update.
4. Make sure that you have more than 50% battery.

Just to flash official fimware (update) You don't need to have root access. All You need is the update file. You can find them here on XDA. Downlod it. Put the update.app file (if it isn't already in it..) into folder called dload. Put the dload folderon your external MicroSD card. Turn off the P6. Put the MicroSD in the phone. Hold down volume up and down buttons together. Push the power on button and hold your fingers still on the volume buttons untill You see the little green guy and the datas written about the update process. Now You should relese those vol keys.. Wait, and after the update finishes, your phone will boot up with the new firmware. If there are datas on your phone's INTERNAL memory, You should save them somewhere, before the update. Commonly the update deletes all userdata from the internal memory.
Oh, it does not have anything to do with warranty 'till You flash official ROMs, and You can go back to previous ROMs too if You want. Rooting will void your phone's warranty.

After updating to this b132 ROM my build is now b124, I was originally on b125.
It would be interesting to see if others have this also. I used the update.app from the b132n.zip, I'm downloading b132.zip now to see if there's any difference.

Hi
I am wondering how I can update my P6 Ascend to Kitkat that I have seen is available. I have tried to do the update through the update on the phone but I cannot get the app to detect the files B125, B132, B510. I h8ave extracted and followed the instructions perfectly but nothing detects still
Is there another way to get the updates to work as the local Huawei does not have the 4.4.2 update ready and wont seem to for a while.

I am currently on B119 and trying to get to B501. I will have another try with what you have suggested. I don't want to go to a custom rom just yet as I have only had the phone 4 days.
