[Question] EMUI 8 for BLN-L21 - Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion

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 :

Hi. Those versions are only available through the updater app if you have China dev or global dev ROM installed. Your device will come with global stable probably and to experience miui 9 and android 7 you will have to flash twrp and flash the dev ROM or use MiFlash with the fastboot method.

Hi! Don't know what version they installed. I bought this one: https://www.gearbest.com/cell-phone...il_sys&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=shipping
One more question: it comes with bootloader unlocked? Anyway there's tutorial to follow everywhere =)

If it's from gearbest i think it will come with global stable.
About the unlocked bootloader , i don't think so , but there are tutorials to flash roms without unlocking the bootloader if you wanna hurry flashing . The best is to unlock it officially and proceed after with flashing.
MIUI 9 - v7.10.19 - China Developer Rom .. That's the final rom they have released (until now) that I downloaded..
Probably it comes with GApps and Chinese 'bloatware' (I would throw them away with Titanium backup, no problem).
Does this have some problems?? Anyone installed this specific version yet?

Hi! If you refer to the post above you , yea , i've tested the china developer rom. It does not have gapps and has chinese xiaomi apps that can be uninstalled.
If you guys want to try the china developer rom , you can download the latest version from xiaomi.eu , it's based on it and has gapps. Also , it is optimised for a smoother experience and no bloatware.

[Discussion] Rollback package for various models

Hi Folks,
Seeing around various section of all the models when users are struggling to restore their phone either due the flashing an incorrect firmware or after updating via Firmware Finder app and then wanting to rollback to earlier version of EMUI. They sometime cannot even flash the custom ROMs due to FRP lock or unable to flash the custom recovery and even after trying all the known methods, we struggle to restore their phone as they messed up badly with their phone and model or version change to something unexpected.
In this thread, lets discuss and share about rollback files available for various models (be it MM, Lollipop anything) so that new users could use it to restore to their original version and then update to official versions.

I haven't seen this on forum and i couldn't get it from Huawei directly. They said it has been given to Service centre WTF (sorry for my words guys). They want us to visit SC for this (after spending on travel as well)

Hi Guys
How to get Stock Firmware Package for Huawei Nova 2i RNE-L22C675 ?? Can't find it any where. I need the Stock Firmware Package for Huawei Nova 2i RNE-L22C675 with EMUI 5.0??
I'm beginning to regret getting this phone cause there is literally no firmware support, neither from Huawei nor developers. Which is surprising cause it is came out the ending of last 2017. It's a real shame.
Anyways, if any of you guys have legit unbricking solution for this phone model would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Can I flash a different region firmware?

I want to install Dot OS on my RN8 - India, I'm currently using QCOINXM official ROM, Android 10, but Dot OS 5.1 is a11-based, my question is: Do I need a11 firmware? Can I flash a11 firmware from China (RCOCNXM)? Or do I need to wait for the India a11 update and use that firmware?

Question which oneplus 9 pro version do I have

I have oneplus9 phone.
Oxygen updater says my phone is India version
when I look in setting->about phone the model is LE2120 which is CN version AFAIK. thats what the Oxygen updater also present.
But the OxygenOS version is 11.2.10.10 LE15DA which is India version according to google
so which version do I have?
2120 is the Chinese version, but you can flash Indian or EU/Global firmware anytime, hence why the Oxygen updater app thinks you have the Indian version. Afaik, it doesn't affect the functionality of the phone.
Right, model number and firmware version are two different things because the model number (LE2120) is your hardware, and the firmware version (DA) is your software.

I don't know a lot about ColorOS or its differences, but it's probably just a matter of personal preference. The two are going to be unified at some point in the near future anyway.
Right?
I am from Germany and I have
phone LE2120 (Chinese) and
build LE15 DA (India)
So i can flash the Europea build...
Will this reset my data?

What OOS version do you have right now?
If you download the full update (not incremental) that is the same version or newer than your current version and install it via system update, that method does not wipe the phone.
If you have to downgrade/rollback due to no full update being available for your version or newer, that would wipe the phone. Or just wait for the next full update to be released.
Actually i have
