Update.zip [LCB43B] to flash by sideload

Hi guys, I´ve found that update to flash manually if you dont get the ota update after flashing the stock images already in this forum.
Original thread: http://www.carbontesla.com/2015/11/download-huawei-watch-lcb43b-ota-zip-europe/
Update.zip download: https://mega.nz/#!hAB1HBwS!H5-7-7s7F73q2SA78oZHkFGaBBpyHtGdrcWSm0iCiKw
Installation Instructions:
1) You should have ADB, Fastboot and Huawei USB drivers installed on your PC. You can use the minimal ADB toolkit too.
2) Download the OTA package ‘update.zip’ from above and place it in the same folder as ADB.
3) Connect your watch with the computer. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled on the watch in developer options.
4) Now open a command window in the ADB folder (Shift + RMB > Open command window here).
5) Execute this command to verify the USB connection: adb devices
6) Now reboot into fastboot mode: adb reboot bootloader
7) When your watch reboots into the bootloader, enter the recovery and select the sideload option.
8) Finally execute this command to push the update: adb sideload update.zip

My windows does not recognized my watch. Do you have any idea how to find and install the driver for windows 10?

Help rooting Pixel C!!

Hi guys,
I've been using WugFresh's root toolkit to root the pixel which has worked fine thus far. Recently I upgraded OTA to Nougat 7.1.2 (N2G47O). Now I've lost root and can't seem to get it back. Attempting to root the device through the toolkit no longer works as the file dependancy hasn't updated properly - "No-Force Encrypt" needs to be downloaded/updated. The link doesn't work however. I'm suspecting that WugFresh hasn't updated to the latest file to match N2G47O.
I don't understand this properly and information online seems limited. Can anyone advise on how to get this thing rooted again? With or without the toolkit will be fine.
Thanks in advance.

Just fastboot flash TWRP then install Magisk in TWRP. Poof... root.

To elaborate on this: download the latest latest "Recovery Flashable.zip" from http://www.supersu.com/download and copy it to the Download folder of your tablet.
In NRT under "Options > Custom recovery" select "Utilize Open Recovery by Team Win Recovery", then use Advanced Utilities to either
- "Fastboot Flash > Recovery" to flash TWRP, then "Quick Tools > Reboot recovery" to start TWRP
or
- "Fastboot Boot > Custom recovery" to start TWRP only once / non-permanent.
In TWRP allow write access to /system, then "Install" SuperSU.ZIP from your Download folder and reboot.

Thanks for your help guys. There seems to be another problem now though. I've followed the steps above and attempted to install TWRP recovery using the tools on the NRT. During the process TWRP asked me for the key to decrypt system data. I don't have one as far as I'm aware. Only my regular system pin. I tried that but it isn't accepting it. I had to accept TWRP leaving the system unmodified. Now I cannot boot into the system at all, only into the TWRP recovery! Why is it encrypted? I never set up encryption...

You seem to have somehow messed up your /system image. To restore it without losing your data, follow these steps:
- find the folder where your ADB.EXE is installed. Typically that would be C:\Program Files (x86)\WugFresh Development\Nexus Root Toolkit\data
- we will call that the ADB folder
- download a Pixel C N2G47W factory image from here: https://developers.google.com/android/images
- there will be a "bootloader-dragon-google_smaug.7900.50.0.img" and a "image-ryu-n2g47w.zip" inside the downloaded ZIP file. Copy these to your ADB folder.
- start TWRP. Press Cancel when asked for encryption key. If asked for write access to /system: allow it
- select Wipe, then Advanced Wipe. Select "Dalvik / ART Cache" and "Cache", then Swipe to Wipe
- In TWRP select Reboot, then Bootloader. If asked to install TWRP: Do Not Install. Should end up with "Waiting for fastboot command".
- alternatively: start your tablet manually into fastboot mode: Power off, then hold the volume down button, after 2 seconds shortly press the power button and hold it until a menu appears
- select "Switch to fastboot mode" with the volume buttons, start it with the power button. "Waiting for fastboot command".
- when in fastboot mode: start an administrative command prompt, CD to your ADB folder
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-dragon-google_smaug.7900.50.0.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
- wait until it says "Waiting for fastboot command" again
Code:
fastboot update image-ryu-n2g47w.zip
- after several flash actions (be patient!) the Pixel C will boot into Android. It may take a while and a second boot can occur.
To install SuperSU you can't use the Download folder of the tablet because /data is encrypted (sorry, my bad).
If you can use a USB stick with OTG, then:
- copy the "Recovery Flashable.zip" from http://www.supersu.com/download to the USB stick
- use NRT to start TWRP without flashing it (Advanced Utilities, Fastboot Boot, Custom Recovery)
- press Cancel when asked for encryption key. If asked for write access to /system: allow it.
- attach the USB stick
- Install, Select Storage, USB OTG, OK
- select SuperSU.ZIP from USB stick and reboot.
If you cannot attach a USB stick:
- copy SuperSU.ZIP to your ADB folder
- start TWRP as described above
- Advanced, ADB Sideload
Code:
adb sideload SuperSU-v2.78-201609011115.zip
- Reboot

This worked a treat. Now rooted and running 7.1.2! Thank you for taking the time to help out. +1

Help rooting Huawei Watch

Hi,
I'm a noob trying to root my Huawei Watch (to be able to read BTLE messages). I used egalite_kernel_HW_dffc4c0-2.0 which should be rooted (and indeed I see su.sh and busybox.sh script in the /setup folder)
I did the following:
sudo adb reboot bootloader
sudo fastboot reboot-bootloader
# Unzip TWRP_3.1.1.-0_Unofficial-Sturgeon.zip => recovery.img
sudo fastboot boot recovery.img
#In the phone, using TWRP, set to ADB sidleoad (wipe data and wipe cache)
sudo adb sideload negalite_kernel_HW_dffc4c0-2.0.zip
TWRP loaded fine and the rom installed fine to, but when opening the "Advanced Settings" it says that the phone is not rooted.
Any hint of what I did wrong?
Thanks

You keep saying your phone. Are you trying to root a phone or a watch? I'll assume you're talking about your watch.
adb sideload is for applying OTA updates. What you want to do is flash that zip.
While in TWRP, do the following:
sudo adb push [path to kernel zip] /sdcard
In the TWRP menu, select install. Navigate to /sdcard and select the zip. Install it.
If you can't get that working, just flash the supersuwear.zip I've attached to this post using TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...aw-1-5-build-m9e42c-to-downgrade-2-0-t3607859
Also, use the advanced wear settings from the play store. I've had issues with the one that negaman includes in his thread.

Yes! I just want to root the watch.
Thanks, for the reply. I'll try it and report back

I installed TWRP_3.1.1.-0_Unofficial-Sturgeon and then I tried to install negalite_kernel_HW_dffc4c0-2.0.zip
sudo adb push negalite_kernel_HW_dffc4c0-2.0.zip /sdcard
and Installed using TWRP.
Unfortunately I got the error below:
--
set_perm: some changes failed
Updaterrocess ended with ERROR:
Error installing zip failed
--
Trying to fix the problem I started wiping parts and I screw-up and delete the system. Wonderful.
I then tried to find ROMs and finally I found Huawei-Rom-NX-v2.7.zip and successfully installed (with Root)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...-negalite-huawei-rom-nx-root-bb-v1-6-t3406813
Unfortunately I find out I need a specific build NWD1.171016.002 (Stock ROM from December 2017).
Any idea were to find it?
Or shall I open a new thread?

Why do you need that? You're running a rooted rom, right? Wasn't that the goal?
If your goal is actually to be on a rooted rom AND be on the latest system software, I think it would probably be best to start from scratch since you've done so much flashing and I'm really not sure what state your watch is in at this point. This is how you do that:
1. Download this factory image: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120748838
2. Extract output.tar from that package. If you need software to do this, I recommend 7zip.
3. Extract the contents of output.tar.
4. Copy flash-all.sh, image-sturgeon-m6e69f.zip, flash-all.bat and bootloader-sturgeon-m6e69f.img to the same folder where you have installed fastboot.exe.
5. Boot your watch in bootloader mode (aka fastboot mode), connect it to the computer and double click on flash-all.bat. This will bring your watch to a 100% stock state.
6. Setup the watch and keep taking OTAs until you are on NWD1.171016.002 (there should only be 1 or 2 that you have to take).
7. Boot into bootloader mode and do one of the following steps:
If you want to keep the stock recovery menu and only use TWRP temporarily, perform the command fastboot boot [path to TWRP image].
If you want to have TWRP permanently installed on your watch, replacing the stock recovery menu, perform the command fastboot flash recovery [path to TWRP image]. Then select reboot to recovery in the bootloader menu.
8. Download the supersuwear.zip package that I linked to in my previous post.
9. While in TWRP, adb push [path to supersuwear.zip] /sdcard
10. Install supersuwear.zip using TWRP menu.
And there you go. Latest firmware version, rooted. Download advanced wear settings from the play store if you want it.

Youre the man.

Want to use Sultan kernel, having flashing issues

Hey guys. Just upgraded to the android 10 October image via the adb flash-all command. Magisk rooted via adb and everything is going great. Want to install Sultan's ported kernel for Android 10. Used adb to flash twrp image and flashed the kernel zip via twrp but it keeps saying it can't mount /system and /vendor upon finishing. Upon rebooting I get stuck at the google G load screen. Have to redo flash-all and instal magisk via adb all over to get back to normal. Anyone have this problem or could offer some help? Would be great.

As long as the kernel finishes the install it's fine. The mounting errors don't matter if it finishes. The mounting errors are just a bug with Android 10. Everything I flash has those errors after it, but I am good. I am on Oct. with Magisk 20 and Sultan kernel.

So the way I'm seeing it is flash the twrp image file, flash the kernel, reboot. Then adb fastboot to bootloader and reflash patched magisk boot.img?

Do this:
Setup:
1. Download latest platform tools for your OS
2. Download latest factory image for Pixel 2 XL
3. Download twrp.img and twrp.zip
4. Download the kernel.zip you want
5. Download magisk.zip version 20
(Keep in mind those aren't the actual filenames, I am just shortening them; plus you will want to rename them for easier flashing)
Install:
1. Boot phone to bootloader.
2. Extract factory image into the platform tools folder
3. Run flash-all script
4. After done reboot back to bootloader (dont do the phone setup)
5. Now remove the factory image from platform tools (or just extract a clean platform tools folder)
6. Place twrp.img, twrp.zip, kernel.zip and magisk.zip into the platform tools folder (rename the files to make it easier to type them out when flashing with computer adb)
7. Run: fastboot boot twrp.img (or whatever you named it)
8. When in twrp, go to settings and turn off "screen timeout" there is a bug
9. Go to advanced then "adb sideload"
10. In your computer terminal type: adb sideload twrp.zip
11. Then run: adb sideload kernel.zip
12. Then run: adb sideload magisk.zip
13. Reboot to system
Should be good! Using sideload allows you to pass files from your computer to your phone, it makes it easy. If adb sideload is "hanging" or "freezing" (you should see a kinda progress bar with it's working) then reboot twrp.img and try a different USB port. There is a glitch when it hangs, where when you remove the USB cable the phone goes black; just hold power + volume down for about 10 seconds and it will boot back to bootloader.
