[Q] Cant update to B510 KK 4.4.2 (International version) - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Hello,
My huawei p6(international version) failed to update to KK 4.4 from B132 JB 4.2.2.
Here's the reason:
E:Error executing updater binary in zip/external??
Error flashing zip ' /external_sd/dload/B510.zip'
FAILED
Anyone had this issue ?
I'v tried all the options what are around the web.
Any other suggestions?

You can't flash official rom in zip file.Unpack zip,folder dload copy to ext. card and than flash rom with stock recovery.

Do you use TWRP or Stock? You cant use TWRP for Huawei Firmware.

I have used both, and funny it is, both recoverys show the same error. I just flashed TWRP and tought it might give me a better answer.
Also i tried trough Huaweis suite and it tells me an error like this"Unable to unzip zip" on every firmware i try.

It seems like you've put the zip file directly into your SD card, you have to extract the folder named "dload" and then put it in the root directory of the SD card.

Where in your SD card are you putting the dload folder with the update.app file?

So you have to rename B510.zip to update.zip and then put the zip onto your sd card in a folder called dload, after that just use local update or force update via the three button method.

I'm no expert, but I think he has to unpack the update.app file, put it inside a folder named "dload" and then move that folder into the root directory of the SD card. I don't think the system can read the zip file directly.

Normally this would be right but it's an OTA update so it has to be a zip.

Hi! I had the same problem there was no way to install B510 downloaded from offical site so I downloaded B510 for Romania by some advice... so it might be a problem with your .zip file

Ok now I can post outside links so I sugest u to install this one. Unzip>put : external_sd/dload/UPDATE.APP>go to settings>about phone>system updates> make backup(optional) and apply and the phone will do the rest (cca15min)

[Q] Unrevoked and Not updating

Alright guys/gals.My question here is this.Using unvevoked3 and not updating to the new OTA update is okay? I'm still having problems with sync not syncing? Thats cause i have not updated yet. Will my phone be alright without the update even though i want it..I cant seem to update it to my evo.Either no one helps or its not in plain English for some of us that dont have the experience rooting or unrooting.
What do you all think? Anyone in the same boat as me.? They say put the file on your sdcard root file.Where in the hell is that?
**** does happen and im in deep **** without the update.
Ok this should be easy. If u are unrevoked and u are full rooted running a custom Rom then just flash the update. There should be a post with the zip that u can flash in recovery to apply the update. If not then just wait for your custom Rom to be updated to the next version with will be surely base on the latest ota. Like u said it's def.ly not a big deal.
BUT:
If u are running stock or want to remain on a stock Rom just flash the rooted 2.2 base on the new OTA, Can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789913
Edit: came across this, should help you also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790394

I have that update on my computer already. Then they say to put in in your sdcard root.I don't know how to find that. I'm using revoked 3, stock Rom I'm sure. Clockwork mod is installed. Please help. Instructions does not help me much. How do I just flash it.

Ok if u have it on your SD then that's easy providing that u got clockwork mod or another custom recovery. Just boot your phone into recovery, I use quickbot. U can also use Rom manager to boot your phone into recovery and also flash a clockwork recovery . Once in recovery just go to flash update from zip, then select the zip(should be the one on your sd) confirm and then reboot. You're done.
Edit:
Putting it on the root of your sd simply means drag and drop it to the main folder on your sd card, where u see all the other files and folder. Just open up your sd card in a browser(double click removing disk from my computer) and also the folder on the computer where u have the file. Then drag and drop it on your sd card. Where u dropping the files is the root of ur sd, hope this helps.

Get to SD root - connect your EVO to your PC through USB and mount it through disk drive from the notification bar then drag your update file onto the SD card, i.e. on my windows laptop, root would be the window "Computer->Removable Disk (G: )
To flash - power off then hold vol down + power button to get into hboot and then select recovery. once there, select flash zip from sd card and select your update file. let it finish and you should be able to reboot into the updated rom.

Michael this is an invalid file name. U do not have to rename or alter any thing with the update file. The file is already a zip file so the extension is already a .zip file. Any file that is zip will always be for example 'filename.zip'. you adding a .zip to the file name will make the file unacceptable as there is no .zip.zip file. Just leave the original file you downloaded as is. Once in recovery you can then follow the same steps you mentioned. Go to choose zip from sd card,u will see the zip file on the sd,select it then confirm and install. U should be fine if u follow these steps.

Just for the record... On Windows boxen, the default options for your filemanager,
is: Hide extensions for known filetypes
Translated:
If windows shows the correct icon for the file, it knows what type of file it is, and therefore will hide it's extension - in your case; .zip
Stupid, I know (Windows).
So, when you see the file "Update", and it shows an icon indicating that windows knows it's a .ZIP file. You will know that the filename is actually:
Update.zip - not just "Update" as you see in filemanager.
Bottom line; file has the correct icon in filemanager, it's extension hidden.
File has a generic icon, then file is unknown, and probably shows it's extension.

[Q] Huawei boot loop with only stock.

Hey!
I have a Huawei Ascend p6 which is stuck at the boot screen with no custom recovery installed.
I have an sd card with a new firmware, but everytime i try to flash a .zip the phone says:
E:signature varification failed
Installation aborted.
Does anyone now what to do? Please help.
Since its stock recovery that you have on the phone tou must update it eith putting an update.app file inside a folder named dload on your external memory card and booting the phone by presing volume up&down simultaneously and letting it finish the update.

What kind of update.app?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2566453
On this page you can find the links and explanations on how to do everything you need to do. The update.app file can be downloaded from the stock rom sections, you have links for international P6-U06 like B111 up to B132, they are zip archives containig the dload folder in wich is the update.app file just extract it from the zip and put it on your sd card as it is(folder dload/update.app)

Did you put the folder dload with update.app file in it on the card or you just copied the zip file directly?
I put the dload folder with uptdate.app directly on the sd card.
Try downloading the file again maybe its corrupted
It worked!!!!!!!
Thank you so much You are the best!
I never thought i would get my phone working again
THANK YOU!
Im glad i could help

[Q] ota update in uk for kitkat

has anybody in the uk had the ota update for kitkat yet, i tried installing it through the local update method but i'm having problems so it looks as though i might have to wait for the ota update. funnily enough i had the same issue with the b125 upgrade as well and had to wait for the ota for that as well
It installed on my stock UK P6 using the local update method.
I did install B132 first, again using the local method. (Extract file from zip, copy dload folder to sdcard, open update app and perform update from there)

installing b513

Hi i recently upgrade to B122 taking some dirrections from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p6/general/b513-update-android-4-4-2-enotion-ui-2-3-t2827869
problem is when i extract the file 513 appears another file name 513 when i extract that one a bunch of folders and UPDATE.APP appears but its to low 14MB shall i rename the file 513 Update?or anny wey.. thank you
Wrong ideea. Copy zip file in dload folder on sdcard and local update.
correct way to install B511
1.FIRST EXTRACT THE DOWNLODED FILE(b513)
2.INSIDE THE EXTRACTED FOLDER YOU WILL FIND ANOTHER ZIP FILE(B513)
3.RENAME THE ZIP FILE AS UPDATE (PLEASE DON'T NAME AS UPDATE.ZIP
4.CREATE NEW FOLDER NAMED AS (dload)
5.COPY THE FILE INTO dload folder IN YOUR sdcard
6.GO TO SETTINGS6--------UPDATES---------LOCAL UPDATE----NOW YOU CAN SUCCEED DUDE

Whats your build number?

Wil I lose my data with this upgrade method?

Local upgrade method.
https://www.oneplus.com/uk/support/softwareupgrade/details?code=PM1574161738631
It's a regular update, so no.
Is there any reason that I can just directly download the zip file to my phone, instead of PC and transfer to the phone, as in the instructions below?
Thank you
How to upgrade system?
Download the software build for your device on this page. Please back up your data before flashing your device.
Plug your phone into your computer and copy the downloaded .zip to your phone’s storage. If you’re using a Mac, you can install Android File Transfer Android File Transfer for this operation.
After the .zip file is copied to your phone, go to 'Settings' - 'system update', click the 'settings' icon on the top right corner, choose 'Local upgrade', find the .zip file and click on 'Install' to confirm.
The update takes about a minute (depending upon the file size), once done reboot your device to boot into the latest Oxygen OS.

You can download directly in your phone, and place it in root of sdcard.
Also be sure the file ends with a .zip extension.
So I downloaded it, it was a jar, so I extracted it and put it in the root of my sdcard. When I try to do local upgrade, it says, "Move installation file into root directory." I moved the jar file as well, and it does not detect it.

Rename .jar into .zip and copy it in the root.

I use it to notify me when an update is available and to handle the download. After that I switch to the system updater to perform the local upgrade.
