VIVO Xperia ZQ original rom

Good morning guys, needed help from someone. I recently bought a Xperia ZQ and it came with the rom operator VIVO. As soon as I picked up the phone rom swapped it for a newer one without the junk VIVO. However, there was an unexpected and very need to return the device and get the money back. I'm afraid that the return is not accepted to be with a rom different from the original. Please could someone post the original VIVO rom ? I searched many places, but have not found. Really need the money, I would be most grateful if someone could do that for me.
Sorry for my english.
Thanks

Download Sony update service in the link below and update your phone, i don't know if it will download the vivo Firmware, but at least you'll be using a firmware downloaded via a sony tool, so i guess they won't be able to complain.

Z5P Dual (E6883) 1299-6237 Update to 7.0

Hello,
Been waiting for update to Android 7.0 since the news been spread on XperiaBlog and XDA, but still no official release for 1299-6237 (HK Version). Hence, a question arise: Are there additional certifications that apply to HK ROM version that it takes so long for an update, or is there is another reason for it? Also, any idea when to expect the update then? Thanks for help in advance!

you can take the Indonesia or India version... since HK , the last update was .305 / oct2016 ... i am not sure why the stopped pushing for HK

Thanks for reply! I know I can manually flash it, but to be honest, with device like this I cannot be bothered (and frankly not many people do, as pretty much no development going on). I am more reliant on OTA or Companion updates as I do not want to lose my data. Hence it owuld be nice to know if someone would have an explanation for such nonsence really.

I was in the same boat as you. I bought my Z5p dual off of Amazon and received an HK version. I've been waiting for a Nougat update and could wait no longer. I updated using the russian update file and can confim that everything works and no bugs to report. Also no data was lost and my phone language remained in English post update. Should you change your mind...
But to contribute to your question, according to the Experia blog there appears to be a relatively big update coming in April to fix a couple of the Nougat issues with sound some users were reporting. That could be why they halted rollouts again.

Bnd-l21c432b101 still no update

Hi guys,
Not sure what's going on but I'm not getting any updates whatsoever. I tried checking manually but to no avail. I also tried downloading the Huawei HiSuite App, there are software updates under my model number but it's saying it's not approved. WTH's going on? Does anyone have info on this?
Thanks,

Its random it seems. I just got it yesterday. Someone else on this forum said they got it last week but their wife didnt get it until this week even though they bought their phones at the same time and live in the same location. So there is no pattern it seems when it comes to the rollout.

I did a little research and B101 builds are not getting anything at all. Our security patch is still Oct 2017. And other builds, though not getting updates at the same time, still managed to get something. I don't wanna root and go to that route but after Q1 and still no updates, I'll probably do it.

B102 same situation.. I think moderators should get all this topics in the same.. because they are everywhere in the forum

I have L24 US version of Honor 7X. It was stuck at firmware B101. Always said "No update". Customer support could not help. I had a ATT Mexico SIM in it. As soon as I changed the SIM to T-Mobile US, it found updates B130 and B140. So update depends on SIM.
I also bought another Honor 7X that had already B130 and put in Movistar Mexico SIM and it found right away update B140. So it may be that only B101 needs a US Sim to update.
I hope this helps other people who are still stuck at original firmware B101.

Same here....
Just Nitty grittyy...
bought my device from Alie Express, In the back of the phone it is written BND-AL10
But in the settings it says BND-L21
I updated to BND-L21xxxxB102XXX
but no updates after that...
in hisuite & firmware finder both app, there are updates for the device but it says not authorized for installation.
Any Idea?

Hi,
I have the same problem. My Phonemodel is BND-21. Also on the back. I bought my device from Amazon.de. The huawei- support says, that the phone is from Spain. I'm in Austria. Next week I will talk to the support again and ask why I don't get updates.
If I have some time I'll make a factory reset and check for updates.

Assistance: BND-AL10 India Variant

Hi Guys,
I am not from India & I'm looking for information on the India variant. I have e-mailed honor India and got information that looks different from what I have seen online.
From looking at an online seller of the 7x in India, the model number they show is the BND-AL10 version (32GB Version), however the response I received from Honor was the version sold in India is - Honor 7x >> Bond-L22B (32GB) = BND-L22 (which is the same as gsmarena info). From what I have seen online, the box says BND-AL10.
- On the device itself under the ''About Phone'' section what does the model number say? Is it the same on the box and the about phone section, BND-AL10?
Also while reading on this site, the BND-AL10 version is also the Chinese variant, so do the phones that are sold in either country receive OTA'S on similar timelines? I'm guessing the one sold in India is configured for the market, google, etc
- On the version sold in India, does it have a lot of pre-loaded app's that are native for the India region and can it be uninstalled?
- Can OTA updates be received when outside of India or are OTA updates dependent on having an active India sim card in?
- If OTA'S are not received when the device is out of India, can it be loaded manually & how so?
Thanks in advance

Any assistance from the Honor experts from india? Or anyone with info. Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks*

My device shows bnd-al10, in retail box and in about phone section too.
Yes it has some pre loaded apps but most of them ar uninstallable.(truecaller, facebook, ucbrowser and some games)
Ota update does not depend of sim card, you will get the update when a update for Indian variant is released. Independent upon where you are.
You can update manually if you can't wait for the update to be released for your variant by using firmware finder app. (Instructions are given in that app)

Thanks for the info
In terms of the OTA updates, honor india response was that i will not receive any OTA once the device was out of india, which I found strange. Hence i thought maybe it was about having an active sim. I believe your answer makes sense but not sure why they said no. If OTA's for example do not come to the device, is there a way of installing it manually?
In regards to updates, i have seen on the site that they have a software page, how would one go about updating from their page? Load the file on a sd, etc.. any link for the process to follow?
Sorry for the many questions, still new to this.
Thanks

Maybe as Suggested in the thread is to try updating with the firmware finder app and see if that works since you haven't received updates as yet?
If you do use the app, kindly give some feedback on how the updating went. Thanks

Apologies, duplicate reply

That kind a contradicts what my mobile shows.
My question is how can I get Oreo ? Is there somethign hidden ? Is sony trolling me ?)

Model Sony Xperia XA 1
Customize Version : 1307-5194_R8A
Android : 7.0

Thanks,

Hey Victor.
Sometimes they take time to roll out. If the IMEI says, you are eligible for Oreo , then you will get oreo soon.
You have customized UK firmware and not HK one.
You can use XperiFirm Tool to check if rollout has become for your device.

According to xperifirm ,the latest available ROM is nougat so you will have to be patient.

Hello Victor
If you want Oreo now then you must software repair through Xperia Companion and if you do software repair then do backup your data in internal storage to sd card and use Xperia Companion for the rest of the backup.
