PSA: .143 Full firmware is broken for WW devices - ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion

Multiple users have experienced issues trying to update their WW devices with the .143 full firmware. It's currently available and hopefully this community can help get the attention to Asus to fix .143. The OTA for .143 does work for WW devices but will pose a problem without a full firmware to fallback on.

.143 full firmware update failing on WW
Model Name: ASUS_1003D Firmware Version: WW-17.0823.2012.131 Rooted or not: Root Frequency of Occurrence: APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app): I'm using a WW device and .143 fails to update the device. I tried redownloading it from different devices and browsers. Now the...

I'm upto date until previous firmware.
I tried to manually update UL-ASUS_I003_1-ASUS-17.0823.2102.143-1.1.95-user.zip (as I'm rooted) but update failed.
I think this file/ FW is corrupt (?) looking at the forum comments on your link. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.

UPDATE: Asus has updated their link and now the .143 package works on WW devices. Its been size has increased from 2.55GB to 2.7GB. Asus has deleted the old .143 entries from the official site. You can either wait until Asus publishes the new update or use this link instead.

UPDATE 2: Its now live on the asus official site and we finally have the .143 source on there too

How to Update from 2.73.111.26 to 2.73.111.91 using zip file for update

Hi,
I have T-mobile G2 Touch with Build number 2.73.111.26 and with rumor going on 2.1 update is going to be available soon i want to update to 2.73.111.91 (considered pre-requisite for the 2.1 update) .
Can you please let me know how i can update using zip file available at various sites to update, as i am in india and i dont think we have OTA update pop-up etc. I was expecting RUU....exe to update rom, which is not available at Germany site not sure why.
Thanks in advance

SKU?

i had problems with OTA...i updated using another member's method.
posted at the asus site:
the US firmware is V10.1.2.15
WW(or is it TW?) is V10.4.2.15
the other WW file is V10.1.2.15
after the JB update... my build number is US_epad-10.4.2.15....which is the number for the WW firmware at asus site.
does this mean i have the WW firmware loaded? am i reading the right number....the build number?
before the JB update the build number was US_epad-9.4.2.28 so had i updated via the asus website i would have used the US_epad-10.1.2.15 file....yet my current build number is US_epad-10.4.2.15.
i'm just confused with the numbers thing....if i were to decide/need to reload the firmware i'm not sure which file to choose.
of course...i'd appreciate any help.

Honor 7 L01 B130 to ?????? ?

I have Honor 7
PLK-L01c185b130 Android 5.0.2
i had never update it
What version need i to update it to latest stock firmware android 6 or higher ?
c185? it's from the middle east region, right?
Honestly I'm not familiar with your model, so my suggestion is: download Firmware Finder from the Play Store, and check for the latest firmware available it automatically detects your model, gives you a list with all the updates available (both incremental and full OTA), and this way you are sure to choose the right file.
ypu can download latest firmware from huawei site and flash it manually to update

Update from 8.1 to 9 but still showing update available

Hi guys,
today i updated my Honor 10 from COL-L29C432B151 (8.1.0.151) to COL-L29C432E4R1P9B159 (9.0.0.159).
At build no it now shows COL-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.177.
But it still tells me that there is an update available (which won't OTA because device is rooted etc.)
I thought i used the latest version available
At Firmware finder is see
Col-L29DC10E3R1P13T8B177 (9.0.0.177),COL-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.177 as OTA-MF and
Col-L29DC10E3R1P13T8B177 (9.0.0.177) as FullOTA-MF (what i think i need).
Do i have to update to one of those
I think that's the small update for fixing camera app and call issue.
It looks like you get an Firmware for another device? Firmwarefinder (Andropidapp) Shows only .159. for the Honor 10 COL-L29C432.
FunkyHuawai shows also the .159 as latest firmware: https://funkyhuawei.club/fulllist
Only a patch. See the screenshot below.
i'm just a bit confused right now.
In the past my build version was like COL-L29 8.1.0.151(C432).
Yesterday i flashed COL-L29C432E4R1P9B159 (9.0.0.159) LINK
And now it looks like this:
Why is the regional code C432 missing?
Can i now flash every firmware?
There is a 9.0.0.160 available
COL-L29C10E3R1P12B160 (9.0.0.160)

i think this is for russia.
The latest firmware i can find for col-l29c432 is the one i just flashed yesterday: COL-L29C432E4R1P9B159 (9.0.0.159)
So why is my phone showing an available patch?
Don't they create a new firmware for every patch?
Or is the latest one just missing in huawei firmware finder?
just officially updated
best regards
Mine's now also on the latest patch: 9.0.0.159(patch01) and not showing update available any more.
But it still doesn't show C432 and the other stuff..?
Still confused

E-label location of FCC ID for H850?

Hi Folks,
According to the documentation I have, the FCC ID should able to be located by navigating to the Regulatory & safety item within Settings. There appears to be 2 options for locating this item. It is supposed to be displayed either under the General tab or in the About phone category of Settings.
However, it is not to be seen. Even doing a search doesn't reveal it.
The phone was new in a sealed box and has Android 7.0 installed with an Android security patch level of 1 November 2016.
Has anyone else had this problem and was able to solve it it?
Thanks!!
I can see the setting exactly where you said on my G5, with Android 8. Have you tried updating the phone to Oreo to see if you can get the info you need? Don't expect much, it only shows very basic info, at least on the OPEN_EU version.

Thanks!! for the feedback.
Very interesting. Are you the original owner of your phone? If so, did it already have Oreo installed when you bought it? The documentation I previously referred to was from 2016 but Oreo was released in August 2017.
The LG SN & Carrier & Country Check, provided by IMEI.info, indicates it is an Israel variant and is associated with a Carrier in Israel (Carrier Code: ISR, Carrier: ISRAEL) which does not seem to make sense given that the phone was in a Sealed Box and supposed to be Unlocked. The same report also indicates it as having a Firmware File of H85030e_00_OPEN_IL_OP_0206.kdz and Firmware Version of H85030E_00 which indicates Android 8.
The list of Firmware, on the LG-ROMs website, also correlates with the Firmware File mentioned above.

However, I'm not sure if the phone, I have, is a UK or Israel variant. The preselected Language was English. Preinstalled apps, such as Evernote, Facebook & Instagram, correlate with UK and Israel variants according to the respective User Guides. If it was an Israel variant, why wasn't the preselected language Hebrew one would be inclined to ask. The Israel User Guide contains both Hebrew and English versions.
After running an HDMI Connectivity check, the next step is to try an OTA (Over-The-Air) Update. The phone is in Oz. Would there be any problems attempting an OTA update for a phone that is not in its original region?
Does your phone correlate to the details on the following page which indicates a Region of EEE?

I'm making an educated guess that the "EEO", in the File name H85030e_00_EEO_GB_OP_1121.kdz, refers to the OPEN_EU version that you mentioned.
Thanks again.

I was not the original owner: I bought it second hand with Marshmallow installed, then I've upgraded to Nougat and then Oreo. I really don't remember how the FCC menu used to look on previous OS versions.

My neighbour bought a Huawei Phone online, and it was an Israelian variant as well. It was a new untouched phone, and I'm quite sure it didn't have Hebrew as default language on the first boot. It works with no problems in Italy. I think that the phone tries to guess the language to be used according to the SIM card: I have a couple of tablets made for the Italian Market, with no SIM card inside, that on first boot are set on English.

As long as you are sure about the model (H850), attempting an OTA or flashing a different variant for the same model is totally fine. Even in the case there are some incompatibilities between the Israelian carriers settings in the firmware and the carriers in the UK, they would be minor issues, such as the NTCODE error. Moreover, you would still be able to flash again a different variant using LGUP if you're not satisfied with the one you have.
EEO_GB by the way is not the OPEN_EU variant, that is called exactly OPEN_EU. I suppose that EEO_GB might be related to EE carrier in Britain.

It's definitely an H850.
Not looking to Flash any ROMs.
The phone is in Oz (Australia).
Would it be best to do the OTA update without a Local SIM card and just use a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet?
Can an "NTCODE error" happen after an OTA update?
Thanks!! again.

If you update the phone through an OTA update, the location shouldn't matter for the update process to complete. The phone will download the latest update available for its region. As the phone is in Australia and it's an Israelian variant, it will receive an Israelian update. So, as long as you use OTA updates, NTCODE error shouldn't happen. But don't worry, even if it happened, it would be just an annoyance, as it shows just once when you start the phone, but wouldn't affect the usage.
