[Q][Updating] From B105 to B510 and PA4.6B6 - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Hi guys!
Firstable, as always, excuse my English....So, I just receive my P6, its on B105 JB 4.2.2, I want to Root and TWRP so I can install PA or Cyano.....I read that firstable I have to be on B510 to do the process...I found this post (http://www.htxt.co.za/2014/06/27/how-to-update-the-huawei-ascend-p6-to-android-4-4-2/) that explains how-to from b125 to b510....so my question, can I go straight from b105 to b125 and to the process, or is there any other software between those 2? Please, if there is a completely diferent process else where from b105 to b510, post the link please...I search but I didn't find anything,
As always, thanks to all of you guys.

you should get first the b112 and then do the steps as mentioned in the article..
the step for b112 is the same as for the others
if its a zip file - rename to update.zip and put it inside dload folder onto your sdcard..
if its a app file - rename it to update app and put it inside dload folder onto your sdcard (sometimes the update.app is compressed to a zip - so you have to extract it)
then you can go ahead with the local update method : settings - about phone - system update - local update..
then - if everything works well you have the p6 with kitkat 4.4.2
for root and that stuff look inside this forum - many threads about it are there..
good luck

Can anyone help me? I'm on B125 and I've even tried a full wipe.
1. update B125
2. download B510 from Link
3. create folder "dload" and copy update.zip in folder "dload"

hi..
as i wrote in the other thread i wasn't able to get the b510 (or b132 now) to pass the verify check..
i tried now almost everything i found inside this forum..
from unlocking bootloader to clean install and this tipp..nothing happend though i'm frustrated with this..
maybe someone can make a clear and step by step guide how to make e.g. a clean install of a rom, what bootloader is needed, which adb commands for unlocking (it is freaky to find these informations in about 5-8 different threads)..
i know that i can use the search and i do so.. but it is sometimes very difficult and timeeating to find the information i need..
Some times to update is required the last previous rom

[Q] Huawei ascend p6 android update to kit kat

Hello everyone, im not very informed about phones and how to update em, so i decided to create an account and ask here what to do.
I currently have an huawei ascend p6 running android 4.2.2 and emotionui 1.6, also the "compilation number(firmware?)" ends in B610.
I wanted to update it to the new android version but in my case i have no idea on what should i do because i only see tutorials for huawei's with other firmwares(?) (never for the B610).
If anyone could guide me somehow id be really thankful!
There should be an option in settings that says "activity" or something of the sort, it's at the bottom of the list in my phone (I'm not sure what actual string is in English, mine is in Spanish). Check there.
You should install b132 firmware (extract downloaded file>make 'dload' folder on your external sd card and put UPDATE.APP into dload then go to settings>about phone>system updates> make backup and apply and the phone will do the rest (cca15min)) and when you are on b132 do the same with b510 firmware. You can download it from offical huawei site or from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2782496

Hi. I am currently using ascend B132 android version 4.2.2 . Initially I had the same issue, I was on B107 and wanted to update it to Kitkat inorder to gain some advancements regarding camera lens. SO I read your post and followed all of your steps. I extracted the B132.zip file and moved the UPDATE.APP file to a folder named dload in my SD card, installed it and it worked. (Y) But now that I have to upgrade to B510, I have no clear instructions after doing hours of research. You stated to follow the same method for the upgradation of B510 but many sites say that it should not be extracted and just rename it to UPDATE.ZIP and paste it to the dload folder. Considering the fact that i still have my UPDATE.APP file (from the previous step of upgrading to B132) in the dload folder, I should paste the UPDATE.ZIP (for B510) in the same folder or remove the UPDATE.APP
I have tried both methods, but as one site says when UPDATE.APP is not present in the folder containing UPDATE.ZIP, android fails to recognize any update and it aborts. whereas, when UPDATE.APP is there too, it just installs the B132 (from the update.app) again and kinds of overlooks the update.zip for B510 and hence there is no update to B510. Kindly, provide me with the steps of installing B510. I have listed all of the problems I am experiencing.
There shouldnt be zip files in the folder. Extract the update.app from the zip file for b510 place it in the dload folder on the sd card an make the update.

The zip file of B510 just don't get extracted and an error occurs. Furthermore all of the other websites states not to extract it, just to rename it as update.zip and put it in dload. does not works.
Dying to update.
Let me check if i have the b510 or b512 update in my comp and ill try to upload it. Then you can work as i said before.

About the download link
Sent from my SM-G850F[/QUOTE]
Thankyou so much. But i think I downloaded from the very same webpage. However, I will give it a try.
Please illustrate clearly whether I have to zip the 510 file. And secondly, The update app file of B132 shouldn't be placed in dload while upgrading?
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, DOES THIS FILE GETS EXTRACTED?
From the link i gave you, you should be able to get a zip file. Extract the zip and see if there is a file called updeta.app. Once you have that file place it in dload folder on sd card and start the update with the three button method.

The User-interface seems pretty good. Please tell me that is this release of B708 for P6 huawei's an official one by the makers of huawei?
Secondly, Is it lollipop or Kitkat?
Lastly, I'm concerned with the speed of the phone, Will it be affected largely?
And If we're good to go, Kindly guide me with the steps and also the requirements for Installing this B708. And most importantly for upgradation of p6 to B708 , it should be running a particular firmware first like B707 but I have B132 so what I have to do. Stuck so badly,
Regards
Well first, it is an official update from huawei but it was only released in china. Because of that you will find some chinese apps in the system but they wont make any problems for the experience with working on the phone. It is kitkat since our beloved P6 didnt get lolipop update and probably wont in future. About performance it will show some improvements, but thats my opinion since ive read on this forum that some arent satisfied with the overall update. And for the proccess of upgrading it is written on their official site that the recomended steps are that you get b508sp2 first and then go to b708. As for b707 i wouldnt suggest it since it still has bugs.

Okay Thanks for sharing all the information. And lastly do you have to be on a specific Firmware as well for upgrading to b508sp2?
Waiting for the working links and the method of installation.

How to Update
Flashing this update requires your phone to be already running B706/B707 EMUI 3.0 developmental firmware or B508 (U06)/ B508SP02 (T00) or B508SP03 (C00) EMUI 2.0 stable firmware on board.
Download the appropriate firmware on your computer and extract it.
Connect your Ascend P6 to the computer in MTP mode over a USB connection.
Format the SD Card in FAT32 filesystem and make sure it has at least 2GB of free space.
Copy the “Update.app” package to “dload” folder of your SD Card.
Disconnect all the cables and completely turn off your phone.
Reboot into automatic upgrade mode by holding Volume Up + Volume Down + Power button for about 10 seconds. Release the Power button when your phone vibrates.
Let go of the Volume keys once your device begins to perform the upgrade.
It’ll take a few seconds to finish the process. Once you’re done reboot your phone normally and enjoy the update.
If SD Card update fails, transfer the dload folder with the update.app file in the internal storage and repeat the steps for updating.
https://mega.nz/#!DswQlAgJ - this is the first update file. In case it requires a key to download use this - !ig-p25rO1ev3CYBk6Js1LkaQ7nGT09-TDXpcaZFZI7I
https://mega.nz/#!ToIikSzR - this is the second. Same here - !lJWmd5KNEU9SravuHZg-pqGdJNGkd3xIv8lzYA58s3Y

Dload Method - change a Stock ROM with twrp recovery image?

Hello Guys,
i opened the thread in the Question&Answer Forum but somehow i have an different approach now that i learned how to rollback an firmware version with an locked bootloader. i dont know if it is possible, i more want to open like a discussion about it if this would be an thing someone could possibly do (and thats the reason im opening another thread for it, since it is not the same question anymore as in the other thread).
well, you can flash an image like EML-L29 8.1.0.129 to the device via the dload method. this image installs just fine, great. but now.. in my understanding the interesting part is this update.app. this update.app as far as my knowledge goes contains all this img files. you know, kernel system boot recovery etc.. wouldnt it be possible to simply replace the recovery.img with an twrp recovery.img, put the update.app back together, zip it in the necessary update_sdcard file and try to install it? i read about the tool "HuaweiUpdateExtractor", and this handy nice tool is showing the files.
another thought of me is: the installer is *verifying* the update.app somehow. but if it is verifying this file, there must be like a crc-file, some way of telling "this file is original" or "this file is okay". so maybe this is another part of the problem that i would have to take care of. but still i would need to know a lot more about the way the eRecovery works.
my ultimate goal is to solve the bootloader code problem since tackling it with dc-unlock and hcu wont work cause the security patch level seems already too high in the first versions of this phone. im basically search now ways around it - i know, there is actually no way to do it, but this is the reason why im opening this thread in hope to get some clues or ideas - and telling my own. oh and im pretty sorry if this is maybe annoying, i surely dont have any intention of spam the forums or stress too much on this topic (but it got me very interested).
Edit: i read in another board that it is nearly Impossible to switch the img files because they are encrypted. I guess it is not possible with this method so basically.. just ignore this thread. I guess there is really no way.
Also I think they have to do some checksum when flashing, so it's really impossible to just switch files...
About dload, i'm on 9.0.0.293 on EML-L29C432
I try the dload method to rollback to android 8.1, no success
i use an usb otg, created dload folder to root and place update.app extracted zip in dload folder
Also i created an "EML-L29_hw_eu" folder inside dload with again extracted from the hw zip file
When i use the dialer method, phone recognize the update.app file and reboot
after reboot to recovery, i have an error and i can't downgrade
What i did wrong ?
thanks

well the biggest problem may be the image itself that you are trying to flash. if you take it from firmwarefinder, you will get most likely absolutely no success. you need to take one from androidhost.ru, the ones there worked for me. there you just put everything in the dload folder on your USB-Stick. oh and better use an full-OTA, not just an simple ota update, because that wont work (you cant just update a few files when you are already on EMUI 9). and on top of that: backup your phone first, because it is possible that after your downgrade you lose all data on your phone.
oh and another thing if you just want to get back to EMUI 8.1 (not a specific version you wish for), just use hisuite, because they are allowing the downgrade even more easily. the method i mentioned above is if you try to flash a specific version like i did with 8.1.0.120
