today indian version got 8.1 update. cant we get that ROM?

ive tried using vpn for china and mine still says system up to date ,mine is on 7.1.1 nov 6th security patch,i think its cos our phone has unofficial playstore app that it wont update. there is a mena firmware update which it says is for our variant on nokia 6 forum but nobody has said if it definitely for second gen ta-1054 ,if it is you could flash it and install all updates manually ,but im waiting untill someone lets me know if its legit has i dont want to brick my new phone

There was one rom in the nokia-6 MENA method, but I could not get it on my phone tho, also no reply on the topic for solution.
I sent back the chinese one, and ordered a global version from amazon.
But after a while there should be systems dumps, or updates to flash.

Anyone else tried flashing mena 2nd gen firmware from Nokia 6 link ?

Can you send me the link to that ROM? Thanks.

To obtain tools look here:

But try at your own risk
Mine survived tho, but no luck ob upgrading.

Did you try it, or?

I've tried it numerous times always fails log says cannot flash locked device

Any progress?
Ive tried installing the latest play store APK as well as China VPN and India/Netherlands as they have started to receive their 8.1 updates (apparently) but nothing.
Im stuck on 7.1.1 and the Nov 2017 security update.
Also, has anyone else tried USB/WiFi/BT tethering...none of these are working (AUS on Telstra). Has anyone else tried?
It worked fine on Oppo phone so its not the carrier and I have checked the APN info.

Another Q..
If the phone is unlocked, would you be able to flash the RoW firmware thats currently being rolled out or are you limited to the (not currently available) TA-1054 only?

Nokia Model: TA-1054 is this version china or global

got a TA-1054 here today in China. Updated 6 times all the way to 8.1.0 without issue.

once bootloader unlocking is available you can flash global firmware just be patient bud

@safron35. Yep..but my reason for wanting the update is so i get tethering. Currently at 7.11 all the tethering (wifi, USB and BT) on my phone is broken. I've had to resort back to using my Oppo until I can get it working as I need this functionality for my work.
@pola..Thanks for the heads up..I'll try connecting my VPN to a Chinese server again and see how it goes.
Anyone know what they use as a check/verification for location?

The ta-1054 is Chinese custom ROM if its on 7.1.1 Nov patch and will not update until you unlock bootloader and flash original firmware ,no matter what you try

Ah..got it. Thx for the info.
Another Q if that's ok? ....if it's had a custom F/W flashed this would mean it's already had its bootloader unlocked yes?

[Question] EMUI 8 for BLN-L21

Hi
I'm a proud owner of a BLN-L21 but it is stuck at EMUI 5.0.3 since last year.
How can I update to EMUI 8.0, so I can install ROMs such as Lineage 16.0/Android PIe ones?
Kind regards

Look for BLN-21
Then try the right package for your region.

bln-l21 (nfc) -> bln-l22 (india/chinese variant) = no nfc

Anyone can summarize how to upgrade BLN-L21 UK version (firmware BLN-L21C432B382) to EMUI 8.0 other than converting to Chinese/Indian first please?
If anyone have converted to Chinese from BLN-L21, then let us know how its going? I want to upgrade so that I can put one of the latest ROMS as this is the prerequisite of most ROMS. Thanks
Would this do it - at least its European (German)?

Hi
It seems that the convertion is mandatory. But some more feedbacks than "loosing nfc" would be highly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Dont think we are loosing anything apart from NFC because that is the only difference we had in region specific models.

BTW there was one more guide to update but that will convert to Chinese version i guess. I guess it was by Khan.

Thx for answering
I suppose forcing the nfc flag to true in the dedicated file .prop doesn't work to regain nfc on Indian or Chinese rebranded ?

I've seen both guide to rebrand to Chinese or Indian version guys, I still wonder which one will offer me more Android 9 custom rom versions. If you have any advice?
Any custom roms will work with nfc? (Android 8 ones?)
Thx for the hard work, your advices and guides are still very helpful in 2021! Just bootloader unlocked and rooted a EU honor 6x. Only paid DC unlocked version get me the unlock code in 2021.
But stick to the thread.... BLN-L21 is losing just nfc to be rebranded, OK. Now any advantage Indian VS Chinese version? Any custom rom for directly the EU version?

I would prefer Indian lme because there are more chances of bricking while moving from Chinese to other versions as there are no custom bin. Once i rebranded to i shuffled easily to EU, US and other variants + custom ROMs

Goog to know about the the Custom bin.
Indian will so be the choice, even if a user had some troubles some days ago using the guide to Indian debrand, maybe it should be updated/corrected :

While I don't have it, if you're having issues, you could always try going to 11.2.2.2 instead?

OnePlus 9 kernel sources are here.
Or use payload_dumper to extract kernel from a full OTA

Great to share. I'm just wondering what OP needs it for so that we may be able to better assist if this doesn't resolve the possible issue they may be having.

Thank You, for the payload dumper much appreciated.

I think OP meant to ask for Stock boot image for Global 11.2.1.1 AA.
My 9 Pro too stuck on this Build, due to Fastboot Flashed a supposed to be global version of the stock boot image(Most likely it's not Global version, ,maybe EU). Not able to OTA update since then, until Oneplus post FULL ROM on the support page, Global 11.2.1.1 AA stock boot image might be our(whoever lost their Global 11.2.1.1 AA stock boot image) only chance to get the system updates installed.

[Solution] Installation Failed - Cannot Update / Try Again on OOS 11.2 Global
If you are having the cannot update issue and have the global variant of the OP9 Pro, you probably had flashed the EU (or other / wrong software version) boot.img. If your software version is anything other than 11.2, (including 11.2.1.1) you...

You just need a global boot image from 11.2.1.1. Ask around.

Question V13.0.5 downgrade to V13.0.3

I'm new to xiaomi world, I just received this minor update today, but there are few bugs and lags, I want to revert back.
Both Roms are stock Stable Global EEA.
I don't know how to dowgrade, because recovery zip and update app not work, unable to downgrade.
Can you show me a complete guide to flash that firmware? I need unlocked bootloader?
Anything in particular I have to know?

Question Error trying to update via OTA

A few weeks ago I bought the Oneplus 11, now that the latest version Global A.07 has come out, I get the following error, I have tried with Oxygen Updater and I still get an error when updating, I have automatic updates enabled from the developer options.
The model is CPH2451

If you're still on A.06 and trying to update to A.07 (and you're rooted on A.06), then you need to flash the stock A.06 init_boot.img before updating. Not 100% sure, but believe that someone posted the stock A.06 init_boot.img for the US version in one of the other threads on here, if not maybe you can ask in those threads if anyone has the unpatched A.06 init_boot.img as only way to do incremental update is if your system is stock. It's the bad part about the US only getting incremental updates instead of the full packages like every other region does.

View the thread here. It has the stock A.06 and A.07 init_boot.img. You can flash which ever one you're currently on then update. I would also recommend following that guide to root the US version of the 11 in the future.

No problem, also wouldn't personally recommend converting. You risk bricking for little to no advantage and if you do brick there's no free way to recover (as MSM is no longer free and open). I would just stay on 2451 and use that guide for updates.
