Where did you get this information from?

I am still on version A2017GV1.0.0B01, System Update does not discover any OTA update. B02 is out, I would expect it to show up as an OTA update? Or will B03 the first OTA update?

I have the a2017u, but you can easly update to b02 with the update. Zip provided by ZTE download of these update is about 2.3gb ,don't have the link but look for it in this forums you'll find it
Here a2017g.b02

I have good contacts with ZTE so I'm here to help the European users. As I stated in the topic you should see this update next week. It will be OTA as well.

Great news. Nothing about the notification bell? Or is that the dynamic lockscreen you mentioned?

Hope you'll be able to captured , A2017U users seems like we can flash / use A2017G software just reflashing a2017u modem for fully functional device.

Thanks for sharing, appreciate it.
If you have good contacts with ZTE Europe, maybe you can answer this:
1. Why is there no EU community, like there is a US community forum?
2. Why was the B02 update not released as an OTA update?

Thanks for the update rikin93,
Do you know if the issues with the notification of the third party apps have been fixed?
I posted earlier that whatsapp doesnt show notification sounds, it shows ringtones instead.
Is there any way (without rooting) for ZTE to include the features like lock screen photos change and stock android theme for A2017G version?

If this comes true I will be pre-ordering. The not "unlockable bootloader" for the European model is the only thing holding me back. (I need LTE Band 20)

Keep in mind that device dispatching this days come out of the box with B02 software version so don't need to update to this version.
Just wait the newly B03 firmware update.
Here's a screenshot of owner of Axon 7 recently received in Germany.

If I buy a Chinese version in China, 4GB+128GB, I presume I wont get this OTA update when I'm back in the UK.
What should I do then? Will I have to root if I want to flash it with EU rom?

The Chinese version has its own set of updates that are posted on the Chinese ZTE forums. They're different from the European updates. Over OTA, you'll only get the Chinese updates. Additionally, the Chinese model has different bands than the European model, so be sure that it has the bands used by your carrier before you purchase one.
At the moment, the only way to flash another region's ROM is to unlock the bootloader, which there is no method of doing on either the Chinese or European models.

Thanks for the tips. I'm current on EE UK and I've just compared the supported bands. Looks like I'm still covered by 1800MHz(band 3) and 2600MHz(band 7) for 4G.
I guess the there are no major flaws in the Chinese version like what we saw among the EU version. So if I just install all the necessary GAPPS then it should be good to go right?
I've asked ZTE for another update but I really doubt the 4GB+128GB version would be on the offer in EU market any time soon.

The notification bell is a UI feature of ZTEs software. I have no news about this and I doubt they will remove it atleast until the nougat release.
Regarding the bootloader, they are discussing this for the EU like I mentioned the EU and US laws are different when it comes to affecting warranty. Legally in the EU they cannot void warranty regardless of bootloader unlock. They will get back to me as soon as it has been discussed and I will reply to you.
B02 wasn't released over OTA as it wasn't a bug fix release.
USA seem to have more support as they were intended to hit the market first and the official public release hasn't happened yet in the EU. It will come soon.
Also I highly suggest you wait for the B03 release as it will fix all/most bugs and make this a phone worth getting. In my honest opinion even without the bootloader unlock I would get this over the OP3 but let's hope we see an unlock too. They have told me they don't want to discriminate against the USA and let's hope they keep their word.

If they are smart, they will make it optional, at least. That's all we need.

can someone test camera in night with that update? with auto and manual?

Well it's quite a bad UI feature since it hinders music controls and nearly every reviewer thinks it's annoying, and should at least be optional. I must admit I was almost certain that they would make it optional very fast. I really hope they still will.

Problem to install Official Marshmallow HTC M8 AT&T

Hello!
My device HTC One M8 AT&T, received an update of Marshmallow 6.0 before it has been released for AT&T.
I was with Lollipop and when I accepted to install the update, it begin to install, then failed.
So, I downloaded DEVELOPER Edition of Marshmallow 6.0 and Installed on my device through RUU file and accepted it successfully.
Now, Marshmallow for AT&T is available and I want to install official version on my smartphone.
I cant install it through RUU file, because software has been modified.
*My device is not ROOTed.
I have changed CID to CW__001
MID is: 0PB10000, need to change to 0PB12000 (as I have seen, to change MID, I need to root my device)
"fastboot getvar all"

Could you tell me steps to install the stock firmware of AT&T on HTC M8 ?
Thank you!
there is no need to run the att ruu they are the same , actually the att one has more bloat .

I believe they are both 6.0.1 based. But as mentioned, the AT&T RUU has a ton of useless bloat, plus breaks things like WiFi hotspot (tethering), so I really don't recommend the AT&T RUU.
What would you recommend me ?
I live in Europe but my device is at&t. It is better to install European or Developer version?

I can't know that, without knowing what bands your carrier uses for 3G and LTE. The Euro and Dev versions are essentially the same, except for the specific bands supported in the firmware.
If 3G and LTE and working fine on your carrier on the stock AT&T ROM and firmware, the same should be the case on the Dev Edition. They are designed to have the same bands supported.
However, if you want to "convert" to Euro to change the band support, then you can do so by running the Euro RUU here.
Marshmallow for ATT ONE M8
Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I'm trying to update my ATT HTC ONE running on T-Mobile service to marshmallow, and every time I connect to my PC and try to install the update I downloaded from HTC's site, it starts but always says error unable to update. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can only guess you are trying to run the AT&T version RUU 6.20.502.5? You don't specify, nor do you state the specific error number, or error message (which would also be helpful in order for me to assist you).
If you are in fact trying to run AT&T RUU on the AT&T version device, you should see the red text regarding the Marshmallow RUU, under the RUUs section of my Index thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2751432
I called HTC tech support, and figured out I had downloaded the wrong RUU lol. I didn't know there was a different one for each carrier's version. Now as soon as I replace the charging port (for the second time, grrr) I think it will work. (anyone else have the same problem with charging ports going out on this device, and know why?)

If you bothered reading my last post (and the thread it linked to) the update to Marshmallow RUU will not work unless you first flash MM firmware posted.

Hi guy's, Wondering if anyone can help me. I have and AT&T HTC One M8 that's on Lollipop 5.0 & Sense 6.0 I have Unlocked the bootloader and Rooted it. I am using this phone with Cricket "Does that mean phone is Unlocked" ?
I cannot update to Marshmallow , as phone keeps telling me their is no update as of today? I think that is Happening because i am using phone on cricket service and not AT&T ?
Anyways I would like to Be able to install Marshmallow 6.0 with Sense 7.0. Can i install an RUU or a Dev Rom "Preferable" and be able to tether?
Just for the record i have an original M8 Developer Edition, but Volume Down doesn't work and Power button has sunk in after replacing charging port Would i be able to Make an Image of My Developer Edition if i Root it ? If downloading a Developer Edtion Rom with less bloated software is possible I would rather go that route.
Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks

Software update frequency???

I'm thinking about buying a Mate 10 pro next week, and I was wondering, how often does this phone receive security updates? This is quite important to me as I like to receive regular software updates.
Till now every month, check on firmware finder.
Wysłane z mojego BLA-L29 przy użyciu Tapatalka

my has security update from january. eu version c432. dont see any newer that is approved for l29 with imei check in firmware finder

Officially 131 is out for my IMEI, and some users on a dutch forum are getting 131-SP1 with the March security patch.
I'm on 137 because I've installed it via fastboot / recovery.
i dont get their imei based update. i mean the phone is unlocked and unbranded. im waiting for 131 to see if option download latest full package rly downloads full ota
I read an article we were supposed to get Oreo 8.1 but that never happened to me. Still on 8.0.0.131 since Jan.

Even when unbranded it seams that carriers can withhold some uodates, Vodafone NL known to always delay the updates for unbranded Nokia phones for example. When putting some other simcard on the phone, people get updated right away.
The same can be said for the Mate is my guess, I got my phone it was stuck on B127, after contacting Huawei they told me that B129 was the latest firmware, and they've asked for my IMEI, a few days later I saw that I was able to install the update via Firmware Finder.
On the T-Mobile forum there were other people complaining that December and January updates didn't happened.
A friend of my on Tele2, got the phone one week before mine and his phone got the B129 update as soon as he had everything setup.
Check firmware finder, if not available for your IMEI, contact Huawei.
So in my case - there should be no german dude here with a higher version then 129 (ota ofc)?

I'm German too and still stuck with 129, can't even installed the updates which are approved for my imei, because always after finishing the download it verifies the update and tells me that the package is bad or so and removes it again. God damnit, that's so annoying. HTC lately is slow on u11+ updates too, Huawei has stupid way of pushing updates too. What is wrong with all those companies. Nokia is not good enough for me, Samsung is well, it just sucks anyway. Apple the same. There is no oem other than Google itself pushing updates properly and fast enough. But their phones are too expensive

Update Firmware Numbers
Hi Evreryone,
My first post here.
Can anyone please help me with the relevance of the firmware numbers?
Do these stay the same and then you look for the most recent date in the firmware finder with the current version?
I am on L09 8.0.0.128(C432) which was last updated in January, is this version always the same for my phone or is L09 8.0.0.129(C432) a newer version?
I am desperate to try anything to rid me of the worst audio headphone quality I have had on a phone, I have tried to force the change to AAC on my Jaybirds but as others have experienced the developer mode doesnt exactly play ball on this phone.
Its the only thing stopping the phone being perfect for me!

yeah i got b129 too and huawei rep said thats the last firmware for my imei. i was just wondering how can some ppl get faster updates with exactly the same phone model l29 432.
i mean i can put in different provider sim in but that wont change imei i guess. when i check ff with imei it said newer was available and gave me link for L09. like how is that even possible.

No it won't change the IMEI, but Huawei will know that you've changed carriers.
I mean this is a theory that is not confirmed.
On Nokia is confirmed that Vodafone Netherlands always withhold the updates for the phones that supports VoLTE on their network, putting any other simcard will make the phone trigger the update instantly.

If availiable, enter get update through DNS, register the update and select change DNS (a VPN connection will open)
And voila download the update via system update.
This is how it worked for me.
yeah. you see on that photo that its confirmed for BLA-L09 even tho model is l29. that felt strange to me
Oh I hadn't even noticed that.
I was checking on the usual prints I make and indeed said l09, but I've installed it anyways back then lol
But I haven't seen any improvement, maybe on the 137 for the battery, so waiting won't make a huge difference.
Only thing that they solved was Maps on PiP.
well. if it doesnt come in next 2 weeks il do the same. for the sake of security update if nothing else

The M10P was rated as Enterprise Phone or to be more precise: there is an Enterprise version of this phone. This rating includes that Huawei needs to roll out the security patches within 90 days after they have been published by Google to keep that rating beside other obligations. But the regular security patches are the benefit we (with our "normal/non-business" phones) we have.
So Huawei has some 30/32 days left to publish the update with the February patch officially. Seems a long time but after that we should receive almost monthly updates as about 30 days later it will be 90 days after the march update has been published and so on.
So be a bit patient if you are waiting for the official updates. I'm sure it will come soon. If you're not that patient install Firmware Finder and check regularly for updates with clearance for your IMEI. You will also receive further OTA updates if a firmware version (B131, B138 etc) is officially rolled out. If not, you need to install the next firmware also via FF.

Yes, 129 is a newer version for your phone.
L09 = Mate 10 Pro Single SIM Version
8.0.0 = Android Version
.129 = Firmware Version number (increases with further updates)

Which Jaybirds do you have? Do they support AAC? You can not change the CODEC to something the headphones do not support.

P30 Pro India EMUI 10

So, its been more than a month EU devices were released with EMUI 10, in India However the situation is different. 1st of all I tried to flash EU firmware and my device got locked out saying "your device has flashed incorrect firmware" after that I have been to huawei service about 10 times and after a month, I got the device in working condition with replaced firmware. A quick question though, despite being such good phone, they are spoiling it with localization. Is there any way I can rebrand my phone from C675 to C431? It seems this is the only way. Looking forward to replies from experts. I would like to add that Huawei service have no clue when EMUI 10 will be hitting the devices in India, that's a sad state of affairs here in India.

Hi, I got it from Huawei Center in Pune, they flashed 9.1.0.118 and asked me to stay on that version for 1 month, I ignored their instruction and flashed 9.1.0.194 via the e-recovery. But then that's about it.

Downgrade is not possible, even if you downgrade it won't let the phone boot up. I am sure I am on different board.

Hi, I got it from Huawei Center in Pune, they flashed 9.1.0.118 and asked me to stay on that version for 1 month, I ignored their instruction and flashed 9.1.0.194 via the e-recovery. But then that's about it.

Hey Guys, I am having similar issues.. the last update I had was 9.1.0.194 via e-recovery a couple of days ago. I had logged a ticket with Huawei support about a month ago and was constantly following up. I just got a call from one of their engineers a few min ago. He mentioned that you need to be on 9.1.0.242 before the phone updates to Android Q (Version 10.x.x.x). He advised me to check on eRecovery again.
I just checked and 9.1.0.242 (around 4.2 GB) is now available on eRecovery and is currently downloading on my phone. Will post an update after it finishes installing and if I see the update to Android Q after that..
Fingers crossed and Cheers !
As an update, no more updates after 9.1.0.242 : /
Tried System update, HiCare, HiSuite and eRecovery.
eRecovery just downloads 9.1.0.242 again..
Will post here if I get an update..
What I have observed is when I use mobile data it shows emui 10 update available. But when im on wifi which is different ISP it says emui 9 is the latest.

Thanks, but I have tried with WiFi and with 4G separately and also clearing cache\data for HiCare, HiSuite, eRecovery update as well. Guess I would have to wait for it or flash a dload firmware when available...
As an update, got the OTA yesterday..

Yes.. I had/ have a sm-g965u and I flashed it to a sm-g965u1. It's not hard to do, but it's also not super easy. Honestly I'd wait another month or so until the offical android 10 is released. But if you really wanna switch to the sm-g965u1 it's possible and the guide is here in this forum. Just be careful if you attempt because you could brick your phone.
Sorry for being the broken record here but I have a Verizon s9 plus that's updated, and I want to flash it to the u1. Is it possible to do this because my firmware is the latest vzw?

So how does one obtain either legitimate access to or a copy of illegitimate nature of this android 10.0 smg965u1 beta?

if i want update TO ANDROID 10 manually via odin patch, will it be network locked later?
i live in indonesia.
thanks before and sory for my bad english.
No worry about that be sure to update manually from:
sm-g965u to sm- g965u1
Download sm-g965u1 (this firmware is unlocked version)
Sm-g965u (this firmware working just with your network,, means ? locked. )
So download sm-g965u1 and you can just update it to android 10 manually via ODIN ..... read carefully my post.
So your question answer is NO , be sure install sm-g965u1 and no problem all your life, ( sm-965u1 (multiple sim , with this firmware put any sim .)
" if i want update TO ANDROID 10 manually via odin patch, will it be network locked later?" Never , install sm-g965u1 ok ?
Any questions???

Try XAA or SPR
You can try first XAA ok for CSC should be fine .. please take out your sim card before flashing....after flashing try different sim (different carrier)after that you can put your sim back

my phone at android 10 now, and network not lock.
thanks you very much:victory::victory:
Enjoy my friend
So what is the difference between 965U and 965u1 U is network unlock.. U1 is factory unlocked.. If flashing U1 will not unlock the bootloader, what good is it really.
The difference ? ...al most the same .. if you want to root you phone you should buy european version . Those version s965u -u1 , its american snapdragon. There is no way to root 100% , some one tried , they root this phone about 90% seem like everything is working but the battery is charging only i dont remember about 80% and some of the option is not working , like you can't buy through samsung pay or something like this ....
But if really want root you phone I recommend you European version s9 plus or s10plus or any phone with processor Exynox . They are 100% rootable, with oem unlock (bootloader unlock)

Lgv30ds Taiwan version

HI,
I have searched the forums but can't find any mention of Taiwan firmware questions relating to the LG V30DS.
I purchased an LG v30ds from Amazon Australia in May 2018. Turns out it comes with the Taiwan firmware. I'm currently sitting on Security Patch Level 1 September 2019 - Android Version 9, software version V30c-TWN-XX.
My questions are:
is there a more recent security update that LG hasn't released for this version of the phone?
Would it be relatively simple to flash to a more recent firmware (preferably Australian but wouldn't rule out other versions completely)?
I realise this still won't give me OTA updates if there even are updates released from LG. I know other people who frequently get security updates on their android phones and I haven't had one in well over 6 months.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Sian (sharn)

First, you have an H930DS. It's a 128GB V30+ with dual sim. The "plus" in V30+ merely means more internal storage. There are other 128GB V30+ without dual SIM capability (like H930G, LS998, US998 V30+), and there are 64GB V30 with dual SIM (like the H930D). Just clarifying for you and others exactly what you have. By the way, most dual SIM owners don't actually need/use their dual SIM capability.

Second, no, there's no more recent that I'm aware of. Well, heard maybe some Korean V30 variants got December 2019 update, but now that's finished. And it's not compatible with H930DS, which you have.
This is a 2017 phone, and you bought it end of 2-year stock firmware updates cycle. Your Pie 30C (Android 9) update was end of the line for any firmware updates and security patches. It should have gone longer -- to at least mid-2020 based on promises LG made for Enterprise Recommended agreement with Google, and I thought would probably go to end of 2020 -- but LG has walked away.

Third, you can use the Dev Patched LGUP from any Pie KDZ thread to flash whatever H930DS firmware you wish over your H939DS. Do you want Australian firmware? You won't get any newer firmware (Australia 30C also has September 2019 security patch), but you can get closer to wherever you live. Some regional firmware is optimized for carriers in that region. In your case specifically, I don't know that you would gain any advantage by flashing Australian H930DS firmware vs Taiwan H930DS firmware -- but if you live in Australia, it wouldn't hurt.
Here's the Australia H930DS 30C KDZ:
LG H930DS → H930DS30c_00_OPEN_AU_DS_OP_0902.kdz
https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/20587/H930DS30c_00_OPEN_AU_DS_OP_0902
If you want to change over to this firmware, you would use Dev Patched LGUP to help you cross flash from your Taiwan firmware. Read the instructions at bottom of this H930SD Pie KDZ post #2. IGNORE that the thread is for India H930DS. It's the Dev Patched LGUP at the bottom of the post you need to read. You would want to use REFURBISH mode or PARTITION DL mode (choosing all Partitions in separate window). Do NOT use "Upgrade" mode since you would be cross flashing.

Fourth, if you bootloader unlocked and rooted you could get current security patches and even newer OS through LOS-17 (Android 10) based custom ROMs. But be aware of trade-offs (bugs like no VoLTE, no LG camera, etc). Here's current bug list for Android 10 LOS-17 custom ROMs.. That list is kept updated by @tech_infinity.
But on stock firmware with old security patch, the V30 is still a FANTASTIC phone. (I know you have V30+, but we tend to call them all "V30" (V30/V30+/V30S) unless you are discussing some specific difference. For instance, the V30S is basically a V30+ with 6GB RAM.)
I myself am still on stock rooted Oreo. The US998 Pie was too wonky for me. I have rooted Oreo with Magisk and Xposed mods to customize the phone the way I want and add other features.
