Where did you get 882 from that you downgraded to?

And what downgrade method did you use?

Thanks!

Just wait a little it may not upgrade for me yet. No vendor files

I noticed that when i upgraded from B882 to B885 ota the download update.app was stored in hwOUC then when it installed it deleted the file.
If say i downloaded and coppied it before install would someone here be able to package up for the masses.
I should be able to coppy it right ??

Same place that leaked B934,files were posted today @ 7am so maybe.......just downloading anyway to have a look.


Update: It`s a dload+vendor folder (needs 7z to extract) just trying to extract the update.app and have a look.

Update 2: Extracted ok but can`t tell what version as i`m not geeky enough.   Someone else will have to have a look now as work calls.

As usual download both files, extract the first one "001" using 7zip and they will extract into one folder with the dload and vendor folders and then you should be able to get the build number..... I would do it,  but im away from a pc atm

To get the OTA update we would need a GB update.app with vendor update.app, so we can replace the Voda apps. Anyone know where this can be had??

I was told by Huawei that we do not need vendor update.app. The magic is somewhere else (I think by downgrading via downgrading tool, when I went to ICS (B934) i had to use middle update.app, so this is the reverse way imho).

WTF? Samsung doesn't provide upgrades quickly for its budget phones... if it ever does.
