Only custom firmware updates are available to me - Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers

I only get custom firmware updates on my p20 lite.
I haven't updated my phone yet.
Current version: ANE-LX1 8.0.0.112 (C432)
New custom version: POLKOMTEL.PL 8.0.0.2 (CT)
Is there a way I can update my phone to normal firmware updates?
Is root required for this?
Will I need to backup my phone before I update to a normal firmware?
If so what is the best way to back up the phone, preferably where I don't sync to Google or another provider who likes to collect data like the contact list?
I am not using an SD card. My phone is a dual sim version

Not a complete answer…
You can check with carful, without root, if you have Huawei firmware instead of firmware customized for your provider, read this thread (at your own risk).

What is the reason that I only get "new custom version" firmware updates?
Should I maybe unlock the bootloader and root the phone? Will this stop these "custom versions"?

Your device is free or locked to mobile network operator?

At the moment it is not sim locked to one provider. I am using two sim cards from two different providers and both sim cards work.
I am afraid if I make the update it will either be sim locked, have some features disabled like WiFi Hotspot or it will get a lot of bloatware from POLKOMTEL.

First this update is at least strange, if your device is SIMLOCK_DEACTIVE and Vendor Country is hw/eu like mine, the regular update expected should be B126 or B136.
This updated can fail, if not bloatware will be present as always but lock your SIM is hard to believe to me. If you are in the hw/eu with link from my last post you can try update to B136. Or you can try capture the link for POLKOMTEL firmware and share here and then I install in mine.
Edit, check in your if the feature Automatic system updates is enable.

When I first started using this phone I used it with a different sim card. As soon as I put the plus.pl simcard into the phone the custom update appeared.
It looks like this
The update did download and I got asked to restart the phone to install it. I never restarted the phone so it was never installed.
OEM unlock is off and automatic system updates are on
SIMLOCK Info: SIMLOCK_DEACTIVE
Vendor Country Info: hw eu
Fuse Info: Error
If you are interested in this custom firmware I can try capturing the link if you tell me how to.

Your SIMLOCK is with same status as mine and Vendor Country too.
Yes, this update seems to be related to plus.pl sim card and maybe it appear because of automatic system updates are on.
If download already happened I'm not sure that you can capture, but you can try.
Generate a logcat file:
Code:
adb logcat > logcat.txt
logcat.txt file will be generated in the current directory, then search for a link that starts with:
Code:
http://update.hicloud.com:8180

I finally managed to get a normal firmware update.
The firmware finder app for Huawei didn't work. This was because the mobile provider firmware was higher than any real firmware. (8.0.0.200).
I couldn't find this custom firmware in logcat.
I disabled automatic system updates in developer options.
After that I went to - >settings - > APPS & notifications - > APPS - > system update
Here I pressed force stop
After that I went to Storage - > Clear Data
After this I went to the system update and the "custom firmware" was no longer there. Instead I received an official Huawei update!!!!
Also my mobile data was switched of while I was doing that. I only used WiFi. I don't know if that makes a difference.

Unfortunatelly Your measure steps are not working for me. In developer options i have automatic updates setting disabled and it only protects me that EMUI system update is nagging me with notification to make an update and not doing it behind my back.
Any official non branded updates are no longer appearing (ANE-LX1), only branded from my local operator. It seems any local custom operator update has higher priority over official ones (or operators have found an exploit to make their updates more important than official ones).
Clearing data of update apps is making things worse because the second step in protection from unwanted update is app privilege named phone (at least on my device) which has to be disabled and which is enabled by default. So each time i clear data of update app, this privilege returns to on state and allows app to start downloading update.
Finally, the only way to get official update is (on my end) to pull out sim card and restart phone.
I didn't point to this but my device is non branded one, bought in ordinary shop, not related to any operator or SIM card.

Blu G8, Need help, turn off auto answer

Hi guys,
I’m currently facing issue with this phone where I can’t figure out how to turn off the auto answer on this device, please help!
Specs:
Phone Model: Blu g8, running in sc9863a
Rom: stock rom version - blu_G0170_V9.0.04.09_Generic 12-10-2019
Android pie (9)
Kernel version: 4.4.147
Non rooted device with locked bootloader
Here is my 3 month life story on this: I recently bought (in oct) this device from best buy (blu g8) deceived under the brand name blu v9, and brought this back with me to India to use it with local carriers. I have currently Jio and Airtel sims in this as it supports dual sim. The first thing i realize is this device isn’t supported by Jio network as it doesn’t turns on volte by default by the carrier and doesn’t registers this device as a 4g lte supported device. This was my 2 month project to try to figure out to make it work. Eventually after a lot of trial and errors, I found out through shortcut manager lite, there is a setting in gcf (for spreadtrum devices) under the name “gcf volte” upon clicking it, it forces the volte to turn on and then the network started to work for me.
This is where the problem lies, I tinkered soo much with this device beyond engineering mode (as the above setting isn’t visible in the EM app) that for some reason it turned on the auto answer feature via the gcf setting under the name “GCF RF” where all it shows is auto answer is: success.
Possible solutions: after all of this, I realized there was no other way to turn this off as the EM app always shows auto answer as off, turning it on and then off also doesn’t helps as still the phone gets picked up automatically in just one short ring (no bluetooth, no android auto, no special apps to stop or turn it on). I was left with no choice but to factory reset it. I did that, still the same issue. Even after FR on a stock rom, no google updates or even with updated google apps, this problem hasn’t gone till date.
I have also tried to root this device, take backups, tried to restore to another blu stock rom, but was never able to get it to working with any current solutions I researched for. Possibly its the spreadtrum version which none of these android softwares like spd, miracle thunder etc. supports. It always shows me the device drivers as connected but when ai invoke the spd or MT flash tools, it fails to detect the phone when it tries to connect to download the rom. Yes, the phone has authorization for the pc I’m trying to connect with and its a direct usb cable connection as I’m able to access the phone drive and sd card through my window pc. As you can see, I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t do their research and begs online for spoon feeding but in this case I’m leveled to do so. Please help experts, I’m new to Android Dev world.
My Ask: if you’re aware on how to stop the auto answer with above not included as your suggestion, please share. I also didn’t find the stock rom or the supported usb drivers with this current spreadtrum device and the pc software to work with it. I’ll need help with those too, if flashing is your option.
Thanks!
I also tried the “adb shell setprop persist.sys.tel.autoanswer.ms 0” command to set the auto answer off but no luck again
no as conseguido la solucion para el root
MOD Edit:
you have not got the solution for the root
Yes that is correct. I haven't been able to root this phone or unlock the bootloader still. (yes this is still me trying to work this phone).
How ever the auto answer has been resolved. I rest the phone to factory settings and used the Shortcut lite app to go to secrets codes for GCF Activity and turned on LTE setting (ONLY). This helped me turn on VOLTE function on this phone for my local JIO Provider.
HELP WANTED!: Still looking for ways to unlock the boot loader. The below is what I get when trying to use Fastboot commands:
F:\Android\platform-tools>fastboot devices
1070308019001034 fastboot
F:\Android\platform-tools>fastboot oem unlock
FAILED (remote: 'unknown cmd.')

Hello friend. I recently got my phone into a similar situation with auto answer on, and it is really annoying. The auto answer function in Engineering Mode is disabled yet the problem persists. Apparently, I have tracked down the function that enabled the auto answer through the GCF ACTIVITY function, but it doesn't offer any way to disable it. Please help me with what you did to clears the problem in your case.
NOTE: my phone doesn't have the LTE capability so I can't turn it on like you said you did on yours.
Also, I have included two screenshots to give you an idea of the options that enable the problematic auto answer feature.
The first screenshot below outlines the initial gcf.gcfactivity,
The second screenshot shows the resulting menu from the first step above,
The third screenshot shows the aftermath of clicking the GCF RF option from the second screenshot above, which shows a dialog box outlining the features enabled by that final step with auto answer as one of them.

Hi My Friend. Welcome to the painful world of A BLU Phone owner . From all of my lessons learned with this one, the best answer is reset your device and this would go away or if you have a latest version available to install, upgrade the phone. Also, in your 3rd screenshot, the last option enables the volte function and this is what I do always. Goodluck!

Android 11/ColorOS 11 OPPO A72 Update with VPN

Hi,
I managed to get the Android 11 update with a bit of stuffing around and thought I would share for everyone else, I did this on a unlocked Australian variant bought from Optus, you're mileage may vary.
This will activate dual sim mode on the phone with a single IMEI, I left my location set to Europe so it is upto you if you follow the last step to remove Dual Sim Mode.
You will need to backup anything you don't wish to lose as a full factory reset is required.

13) Plug in phone via USB and select "Transfer Files".
14) Enable developer options on phone and activate USB Debugging.
15) Press Allow when prompted to give PC ADB access.

That's All Folks
Hi! I'm from Germany.
I use Orbot and set the language to Dutch (Netherland). Then I went to Settings » Software Update. The new Android version 11 is now available. The version displayed is: CPH2067NV44_11_C.71
I have to consider installing this version as I don't know if it will lead to complications. Can I simply set the language to German in the settings? I don't have Windows at the moment and can only use Android tools. It is explicitly NV (Netherland Version) in the firmware version.
Whether that is EU or EUEX... no plan.
So far I haven't loaded the update either because I'm afraid that I will never get the "thing" to root.
Without root it's only half a smartphone, although I'm pretty happy with the A72.
Friendly greetings to everyone!

How To Guide 5II/1&5III VoLTE patch. [Guide to release the root]

In the Xperia user group in
cafe.naver.com/x1smart
I'm HTCMAGE.
Last year, Xperia 1II.
How to activate VoLTE.
After the guide version,
VOLTE Success, Activation without Firmware Replacement (Sony Mobile withdrawal area)
Hello Xperia users! In the meantime, I finally solved the VOLTE problem! I approached Qualcomm's diagnostic port-active-efsExplorer and solved the problem by inserting a VOLTE profile from my carrier :) Sorry, this is Korea and I am Korean...

It's easy to use.
Netflix is also on PlayStore.
It'll be updated normally.

If you maintain the route,
I change my font or record on the phone.
When you do the whole gesture, remove the bottom white stick.
That's one of the advantages.
You can choose Xperia.
The users can choose.

In the old guide version,
My English skills that I'm not good at...
This person translated it.
Please keep in mind.
The EBS file (VoLTE file) is...
It's in Sony firmware.
In the country you're using,
All the mobile carrier files are in here.
You can use that.
It's in the policy man folder.
You must modify the XML file!
In the area that was withdrawn,
I don't have a mobile carrier band code.
Make sure to change it to a notepad.
If you change the XML file,
VoLTE, of course.
5G works normally, too.
My poor English skills...
Someone wise.
Please deliver it.
We wish.
Be happy always.
How can I get the efs file?
/system/vendor/firmware_mnt/image/modem_pr/mcfg/configs/mcfg_sw/generic
It's in the firmware or on the device
So you can either unlock BL & root to have VoLTE, VoWiFi, etc; or keep everything untouched to have Widewine DRM (Netflix HD etc), full camera filter support, etc?
There is just no middle ground, is there :-/

That's annoying that WiFi calling is disabled.
I hope Sony fix volte issues globally for the upcoming Xperia 1 IV. All other manufacturers such as Xiaomi don't have this issue even if it's a grey import. I don't see why Sony can't fix the problem

Battery consumption is higher with 5G.
What benefits do you get with 5G besides speed?

I am happy with 4G as it is more than enough for my general usage.
What I want Sony to basically fix is volte and WiFi calling as that is a deal breaker considering 3G network will be phased out.
If Sony don't fix volte issue then certain countries will not be able to buy the upcoming Xperia phones as it will no longer be able to make calls.

Yes I have volte working by flashing SEA firmware. Working in Australia on Vodafone only for the Xperia 1 II.
However I haven't heard anyone getting it to work on the current generation Xperia 1 III so that puts further Doubt on the upcoming Xperia 1 IV which would be enough to keep me away and look elsewhere instead. It's not possible to make calls it volte doesn't work and 3G network is shut down

[APP][XPOSED] SIM Number Setter

SIM Number Setter​SIM Number Setter is a small Xposed module that invokes normally unused Android System code to set the "subscriber number" on the device's SIM card. This is the number displayed in the system settings, and used in apps such as Google Messages, as well as being available to third party apps with sufficient permissions.
The number is not always set by carriers (leaving "Unknown"), or can be lost or invalid after porting a number to a different SIM.
This small app allows you to fix it, permanently, using a rooted device with Xposed.
If you don't have a rooted device, or don't want to root your main device, you may wish to consider rooting an old device, and temporarily putting your SIM into that device, using this app, and then putting it back in your main device - the fixed number will travel with it
There are some older Xposed modules that do similar things to this, but they are all abandoned and use methods that will no longer work with changes to the platform since then. This module should keep working regardless as it does not store the number locally at all, instead immediately invoking the change - allowing the app to be uninstalled after use too.
Important Notice​Changing the SIM number is semi-permanent: the number change will survive reboots, uninstalling this app, even switching the SIM to a different device, but can be changed again at any time using this app.
SIM Number Setter does NOT:
Change your actual phone number, no matter what you enter. You must contact your carrier if you wish to port your number or switch network.
Unblock a network blocked SIM.
Give you free data or calls.
Change your IMEI.
SIM Number Setter uses the built-in Android methods to write data to the SIM. The app nor the developer are not responsible for issues with the process, including any damage to the SIM or network issues.

It works perfectly fine with LSposed too!!
Thanks a lot!
Ohh, FFS! If you have dual SIM, just switch them, change its number and switch them back! Not a big deal!
@Quinny899 Thanks for this! Is there a defined format in which the phone number should be entered? For example, +[Country Code][10 Digit Mobile Number], or 00[Country Code][10 Digit Mobile Number], something like that?

Anything should work, so long as it's 20 chars or less and uses only numbers or +
works perfectly as described, in case of dual SIM just temporarily change the position to SIM1

Doesn't work for me, unfortunately. Could be because of OxygenOS (read all the issues, open and closed, in your GitHub repository and checked everything) but I'm not sure. Thanks nonetheless!

There's a report on GitHub of someone with a phone that came with MIUI doing the same thing, I suspect there's something different on those devices. Not a lot I can do without having the device to debug, as the logs don't show anything.

I really wish I could change that sim number. Man....
Such a bummer.
Make sure the module is enabled on LSposed.
Also, make sure Phone services is selected at the module.
Reboot your device and try again.

I've tested on Samsung S20, Xiaomi Mi11i and it works fine.
LSposed 1.7.2 (6379)
You could try cleaning the data from this app.
Thank you for this. I just ported my Mobile Number to another network and got a unknown number on about phone.
Just a question. Is the write procedure single use?
Can you re-write the field if you transfer numbers, or misstype, or, or or?

You can rewrite it as many times as you like, though I'd recommend trying to keep usage low as I doubt SIMs are designed for this data to be rewritten often. If you make a typo you can fix it though.

V12.2.6.0.RJBMIXM cannot be installed

Hi everyone! This is my first topic.
I just got a Xiaomi MI 10, and after a feel sucessfull updates I'm having troubles with this one... V12.2.6.0.RJBMIXM
The notification about the updated appears from time to time, and, after I click to download the file, I try to install it and keep receiving the error: "Couldn't update Verification problem". I keep clicking "Try Again" but it failes every single time and it's annoying that phone is reminding me to update every time.
Googling about it, I found this forum and saw that this update that my phone is trying to get, is a rolled back one.
So, what and how can I do it to get an recent update for my phone if I keep only getting this one that's rolled back? I never have updated an android phone manually, just used the official ROM's that's been sended to me by "official channels".

Nope, you can use the updater provided you respect the order of the versions.
What is not possible to downgrade.

You can try to do a factory reset (your data will be erased), it sometimes works.
Thank you all for helping me! I'll try this procedures later on and come back with the results.
Doing the manual installation of one of those rom's, my data will be erased? There's a way to do it without erasing all? Should I download and install only the version thats with error? (V12.2.6.0.RJBMIXM) Or should I download and install the latest version available for my device?

Tap on the Miu12 logo several times.
Have you tried download latest package(3 points)?
Thanks! The option appeared after clicking the logo several times . I'll try to update using the INCREMENTAL UPDATE file later this day.
Have you tried download latest package(3 points)?​Yes, several times... Its shows the error: "Can't download update Wait a minute or two and try again". On the video that I posted on my last reply I did tried again, returned the same error .
Before I came to this forum, I exchanged some emails with the official xiaomi support ([email protected]) and did some testing with this option several times, on different days and different time periods... After these tests (and some others) failed to resolve my issue, the support from Xiaomi suggested that I should bring my device to my local service center for further assistance. But my country doesn't have any official service centers, and I would have to return my device to my dealer to try to use my warranty...
So here we are
Thanks! The option appeared after clicking the logo several times . I'll try to update using the INCREMENTAL UPDATE file later this day.
If the same, perform a factory reset.
