[Q] P6-U06, from B106 to B708 kitkat? - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Hi!
My buddy got the P6 with B106 firmware on it. Buggy as hell, and he wants kitkat. What is the procedure to update to latest firmware?
I had u9200/ p1 at a time. The trick here was to edit build number in build.prop, to make the recovery believe it was a supported firmware. Does this work on P6 too?
If not, which firmwares do i need to download in order to finally get to B708?
Cheers, Olav

Are you sure? Others say I can't. And EmUI flash guide says "only upgradable from V100R001C17B508SP02, V100R001C17B706, V100R001C17B707"

flash b118 -> b508sp2 -> b708
always format sd card

Thanks!
And when I'm on B708, I can do "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" to get TWRP installed on this phone? Then root, then install GAPPS etc?

B106 -> B125 -> B132 -> B512
work?

Yes it will work.

Hey dudes!
On B708 now, but can't seem to install fastboot drivers. I've tried with drivers from google SKD. Also tried "15 seconds adb installer", ++.
Windows says that the drivers i try is "not designed for windows x64", and won't install them. They work for my Sony-phone, my Huawei ascend p1 and others. ADB drivers for P6 on B708 installed perfectly, but fastboot won't freakin' work. Which leads to no TWRP, and therefore no root etc..
Any ideas what to do here? W8.1, x64. Latest google drivers, latest "15 seconds adb installer".
Also tried these: http://androidxda.com/download-huawei-usb-drivers
I've installed ADB and Fastboot drivers manually in "device manager" many times before, so i'm pretty sure i'm doing it right.

"the folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. if the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with windows for x64-based systems."

Install the HiSuite from Huawei and update it if needed.

Custom recovery on Huawei Ascend p1

Hello,
I'm wanting to flash cloxkworkmod recovery on my Huawei Ascend p1 but none of the guides seem to be working as adb gets stuck on 'waiting for device' but the drivers are installed so I'm confused.
Just wondering if there's any more methods that might work that I can attempt?
I've attached the device information to this just in case my firmware isn't supported.
Cheers

If you have a stock recovery you can flash stock firmware. Put in to SD card update.app. After that boot in recovery and flash firmware.

Update Pac-Man Rom

Hey There,
I've installed Pac-Man Rom on my P6 (Android 4.2.2). There are actually some bugs with this Software, so i can't see video streams on Facebook (directly stops after click on play).
I've seen there is an Update from April but i'm not able to install it. TWRP installation aborted and via GooManager the same.
What can i do to get the newest version with maybe less bugs?
Thanks a lot! Greetings
Can you tell us step-by-step what you did to update the rom?

Ive downloaded the new File manually to my Phone, rebooted to TWRP and installed it. There was an Error (I think it was something like "the signature is wrong"). So i rebooted the Phone and it stops at the Huawei Logo. No chance to repair it. I had to reinstall the older version of Pac-Man via Fastboot and (thank god) i've made a backup before installing the update, i was able to restore the phone.
Then i've tried to install the Update via GooManager. But this programm sends me to Recovery to, so i didn't try to install the new file once more.
Thats what i've tried till now. Because of the bugs in my installed Version i think it would be nice to use the new one.
Greetings and Thanks!
We don't have official Pac. See Surdu's thread in Original Development.

Did you try to re-download the rom and re-flash it via TWRP?
Sent from my P6-U06 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes i did, the same happened. I've flashed the older version immediately so that i didn't have to reinstall and restore all once more
The only explanation is that the zip is corrupted. Did it say the signature was wrong or signature verification failed?
Sent from my P6-U06 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
yes it does. I redownloaded it and tried again with the same results... I think i will wait for the update to 4.4.2, hope it will be there in a few weeks... You're using it on P6 to?
I used it while I was still on JB. No problems like yours. Maybe try a different SD card ( borrow from a friend ).

Hello again,
I've bought a New card. The Same problem. Now ive read that i need the twrp Version 6.2.3.3. But i cant install the update. I tried to install the new version via cwm, after the installation it says update completed. The next start of twrp there is the old Version 6.2.3.0 again.
Now i don't know what to do...
Is there anyone who has an idea?
Greetings!

I can not make the root, I tried in every way, but always failed root.
I want to try the method TWRP, but I can not find the TWRP for P6S.
The bootloader is unlocked, and is installed Android 4.4.2 (B208sp1).
Thanks.
I was using Vroot without problems. Other rooting progs work fine also.
You should enable debug on usb, set connection mode to HiSuite, install HiSuite on your PC.

Are you using vroot?
If you are, uninstall the Huawei PC Suite you have on your PC and delete from programs, then download fresh suite from Huawei. I had the same problem.

Yes, make sure you've wiped the program from your system completely, as much as you can, then just go to Huawei and download the latest PC suite there.
When you re-plug your phone it will download drivers etc again. I figure there was some kind of clash going on with the version updates of the HwSuite itself.
VRoot then works perfectly, very easy, very quick as long as you're not on emui3.0 yet.
