What's the link to the Android N preview OTA flashable zip (LTE model)? - Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Like many others the N developer preview bricked my N9. And I stupidly forgot to enable OEM unlocking...
Has anyone captured the OTA update link? It's pretty much our last hope unless Google releases a flashable update that can fix it.

Found them! Google made them available this time

[Q] Android Market 3.1+ / Did the OTA update already happen in the US?

Hi,
I'm just wondering if the US guys have received the OTA update for the Android Market 3.1+ yet
I know most of xda users have installed the APK manually, but if you're in the US you may be able to know more about the normal users!
PS: I've indeed read articles saying the OTA update happened in July, but can't find any confirmation of the user base - is this new market for every single Android phones, or just Android 2+ ?
Thanks,
v.
I think it's for all android phones. If you want to try it out you can install it manually ....
Download Market 3.0.27 : http://www.filesonic.com/file/1503013831

[Huawei Mediapad X1 7D-501L] new OTA from august 2017

New OTA has been released for 7D-501L:
http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/?firmware_model=7D-501L&firmware_page=0
7D-501LV100R001C151B002 (august 10th 2017) <incremental OTA>
7D-501LV100R002C100B105 (august 4th 2017) <full rom OTA>
7D-501LV100R001C199B006 (august 4th 2017) <incremental OTA>
7D-501LV100R002C100B105 (july 27th 2017) <incremental OTA>
WARNING I THINK THOSE UPDATES OFFER ONLY EMUI 2.3 (please confirm if you try them). SO LESS INTERESTING THAN EMUI 3 ROMS : TAIWAN B013 (with Limited languages) OR CHINESE B011 FOR 501L (with google to be installed on).
Of course all rom in this post are Kikat roms, lollipops roms for X1 are still betas and not bugs-free!
To install them, you have to be on a kitkat rom, and put the whole update.zip in a dload folder at the root of your external or internal SDcard. And then do a EMUI local update ('Settings', 'Updater', 'Menu' and 'Local update')
---
To download and install , you can also use Huawei Firmware Finder (Android app or Windows software)
for android, use the app + its proxy to receive an OTA, see https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgw3d3fHTj5E33lNsLcCwcgoraZmfin7V and other tutorials videos on Youtube from several users.
The B105 is for Europe (CUST100), android 4.4.2, EMU 2.3 (??):
http://ministryofsolutions.com/2017/08/huawei-mediapad-x1-7d-501l-firmware-b105-emui-2-3-europe.html
Thank you
The BETA lollipop was buggy. It has been a long time since there has been an upgrade. Thanks will try it out.
It should be an update of European B103, but please confirm the EMUI 2. 3 feature. Thanks
Feedback
I've tried it. To make it work via the sd card i needed to copy the update.app from the modem directory out above. On the version i'm on B103 but after the upgrade it still says B103 but the kernel has changed. I downloaded the full OTA B105. Is this correct ?
Screen shot after the Full OTA B105 upgrade. Note only the kernel shows the 2017 update. Emui is 2.3 Build ware B103 and not B105.
Forgot to add that i was on version B103 before i upgraded to the B105. As there were a number of B105 links i chose the FullOTA on the remarks to use as the upgrade. Thanks.
I didn't succeed to upgrade to B105 from B103. There are a lot of files in update.zip and update.app is a only for the modem...

In fact, update from this database (this is a view from huawei database extracted by Firmwar finder develloper) are not installable via official dload method (as they are OTA to get to your device). Sorry about wrong inital information .
BUT, the 7D-501LV100R002C100B105 (august 4th 2017) <full rom OTA> this one only could be installed with official dload method, see here)
To install the others, don't try dload offical method. But please use:
Huawei Firmware Finder (Android app or Windows software)
for android, use the app + its proxy to receive an OTA, see https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgw3d3fHTj5E33lNsLcCwcgoraZmfin7V and other tutorials videos on Youtube from several users.
or
Huawei updater (Windows software, to use with Hisuite), as it now work for any huawei device (use the update file name and url, as found on database )
(install methods added to post 1 here)
@YesofCourse did post this question on another thread, I think it's for this one:

For 501u, the chinese B011 kitkat EMUI 3 is far better(chinese B113 is lollipop, but unfortunatly buggy) . Forget this 501L B105 kitkat EMUI 2.3 ...
Changngs EMUI version will really boost your device.

Update.zip, even those given in ministryofsolutions, has not the framework of a full update firmware (update.app,...). It looks rather like an incremental update... It is the update.zip I tried to use...

For those .zip without update.app, you have put the whole update.zip in the dload folder. And then do a local update ('Settings', 'Updater', 'Menu' and 'Local update') . IT was the same when I installed my full european B103 (wich was a 135 Mb incremental update for B102)
see here (point 3) also !
I've just check, and ministry of solution's huawei link for B105 is the same as the one in firmawer finder database. So definitly not installable with dload/update.app (so the site is wrong, I did correct post #!)
BUT if put the whole update.zip in the dload folder + do a local update works('Settings', 'Updater', 'Menu' and 'Local update'), that would be a great news to install all update.zip found on the firmware finder database! All OTA links for the database giving a "update.zip" file should be installable with EMUI updater )! Please give it a try on your X1 Let me know!
On my side as manual update disapear from EMUI 4+, for X2 devices I'll have to use huawei firmware finder or huawei updater, or reinstall local updater in EMUI 4. I might give a try at local updater reinstallation, so that would be a ne way to use update.zip OTA found in firmawer finder database
Im going to give a try on huawei firmware finder or huawei updater, that I use on my X2...

If you start from B103, that should work for sure. But please try first "put the whole update.zip in the dload folder + do a EMUIlocal update" first. Thanks!!
NB: The method 2 solution of this thread seems quite interesting to manually install ota update!

A brief remember of best 501L rom for now according to me :
The B013 rom from Huawei taiwan will be perfect for your 501L if you don't mind english as a main system language (apps'language can be yours with morelocal 2/morelangs). If you do mind, install chinese B011, but you'll have to manually install google play and google sync services, and root too uninstall chinses bloatware.
Actually this is not swithcing from Android 4.4.2 to Android 5 that will boost your device (anyway android 5 roms are buggy on the X1!!), but switching from EMUI 2 to 2.3 to EMUI 3!!
** Best OFFICIAL 501L ROM (android 4.4.2, EMUI 3.0, 400 DPI):
- B013 (Taiwan): http://consumer.huawei.com/tw/support/products/downloads/detail/mediapad-x1-tw.htm?id=60006
Warning, few supported languages: Chineses & english. But if you root your device, you can add your language, for applications at least, with "MoreLangs" and/or "Morelocale 2", available in google play store
** Some other recent OFFICIAL 501L ROMs (android 4.4.2, EMUI 2.3, 400 DPI):
- B103 (Europe):

- B017 Malaysia (B017):
http://consumer.huawei.com/my/tablets/support/downloads/detail/mediapad-x1-my.htm?id=42841
--------
But, for a more advanced ROM (possibilities of custom mods, lollipop betas), you can install a chinese rom devoted to 503L, but fully functionnable on 501L, without restricting the extra 501L's 4G bands:
** Last OFFICIAL ROM released (B011 (china) = Android 4.4.2, EMUI 3.0, 400 DPI framework with per app DPI setting)):
https://1drv.ms/f/s!AoChLp8DMXIsrlbMUNz1JI4lk1Xc
(this pack is ready ton install on 501L with no modifications)
option: ** you can also flash the HRT_KangVIP custom mod on your B011 if you want:

** Last BETA ROM released (B113 (china) = Android 5.1.1, EMUI 3.1, 400 DPI framework with per app DPI setting):
Start from a device installed with above B011.
Then update to (B011SP5): http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-mediapad/general/rom-t3226547/post63329818#post63329818
Then update to B113: http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-mediapad/general/rom-t3275540

** add Google apps and their sync to the chinese ROMs :
2 possible ways (at your choice):
1)use Huawei store that is already installed on your device:

ALL ROMs in this post are multilanguage except where noted (put your SIM card inside device before first boot), and cover all bands handled by the device. So countries of origin, are here only for information, and are not a limitation of place for use.

understand. I sit on b110 (5.1) and everything suits (b113 brakes). I have so understood it rom for the Japanese market and perhaps it will be updated to 5 and will correct errors, though all the same.

Question on Custom Rom for RN3

I have been thinking of this question before but forgot to ask here. I am wonder what is the reason none of Custom rom for RN3 equip with OTA update function. Miui got the OTA update and can be update with as little as 12mb update.
Custom rom on the other hand need to download whole big ass rom everytime there is an update.
If there is a small update file size then we could save so much data and space to upload and download the update.
May i know the small update files never exist in RN3 Custom scene while Miui xioami can have as small file size update for its rom.
With Lineage OS, you can use an app to get 'Delta' (~OTA file) updates.

Don't use it myself as I prefer to get full image, then if something goes wrong, I have the full image to flash.
Edit: - @shanemod noticed from your posts that your using LOS, so above app may suit you?

Reason being why OEMs use OTA to push update is, they don't want users to download full update from the website nd flash it... It will lead to many issues... Many users create different issue and its not easy for them to give a fruitful experience to users... When you talk about Custom roms, user must have basic knowledge of what he/she is doing and before you flash custom rom, you make lot of research in reading... So eventually its easy for you to flash a update via recovery and forum developers need not to work on OTA related issues and so soon... Plus all users are not using the stock kernel.. So it has dependencies too... To push incremental update via ota is not an easy task... Dev neeed to spend critical time on writing scripts and there are majorly time constraints also... So they prefer the easy way... Hope it resolved you query why no one is providing OTA on custom roms...

Android official OTA packages from other sites safe or not.

Hi , I had a motorola g5s plus with android 7.1 for a long time , just before the official release of android 8.1 for the device in my country i downloaded a rom from a youtube link for my device it was titled as official rom .( it said it was a rom from country which the offical updates were released few days before in my country).
Instructions to install the rom were fairly simple , i just had to grant the updater the permission to access storage in my phone then paste the rom into the internal storage of my device and then normally go check in the updater of my device and it showed updates available .
so i did everything, updates were installed normally and never actually experienced any bug whatsoever . Also i regularly got security updates from lenovo/motorola through OTA.
FYI - i never rooted or unlocked my device's bootloader it was completely stock device .
My question is are there chances that the rom i installed from an unknown source might be hampered? or cracked in someway it is completely safe to use my phone?
this may be a silly question , i am sorry if it is but i really know very less about these things , please guide me. thank you in advanced.
@Dante18 Give the Link to the YouTube video.
@lucki1000
i can't actually find that video on youtube . i was just wondering if anyone ever tried to hamper or crack official OTA package would it still Install on a completely Stock device and still get regular updates as in form of OTA from Lenovo/Motorola?

I think this are spam packages, i would not try this packages, i can only recommend roms from XDA or the vendor.

Miui 11 v11.0.7.0.qjcmixm

I hope someone finds this helpful.
I have been waiting for MIUI 12 and seeing family members Redmi phones receiving newer versions of MIUI 11, I decided to go looking.
MIUI 11 V11.0.7.0.QJCMIXM Update at 2020-08-28 13:58:11 is now available. :good:
Changelog:
Other
Optimization: Increased system stability
Optimization: Reduced system lag
Download link for both OTA and Recovery are available here.
https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/lancelot/[/url]
I followed this guide to upgrade to this latest update of MIUI 11 using the OTA file.
https://c.mi.com/thread-1890305-1-0.html[/url]
My Redmi 9 is now on - V11.0.7.0.QJCMIXM which is much smoother and noticeably better, i am looking forward to MIUI 12 when it is available.
Just an FYI...
This also appears to have fixed the icons disappearing on the bottom of my home screen from time to time, which apparently only occurs when you have an app draw setup.
I haven't seen it occur in over 24hrs, where it used to happen regularly before I did the update.
Tnks a lot...i also update my redmi 9...it work great ..root also work...
so should I download and use the recovery one or the ota version ?

Use the OTA and you can upgrade from V11.0.4.0.QJCMIXM to V11.0.7.0.QJCMIXM without needing to reset anything or lose any data.
It is just like receiving the update via Wifi..
For some reason, I did not receive the OTA via Wifi as my phone kept saying "No updates available"... Yet here it is.

It's a good version from xiaomi for redmi 9 it's more stable and felt like a real "stable build" .
I'm not existing for miui 12, just felling that it will be buggy
