[GUIDE] How to install Android 10 Internal Build for Nokia 8 Sirocco

[hikari_calyx]

If you want to repost this internal OTA to other websites (other than XDA itself), please ask me for permission, thanks.

To users who have installed this internal build, please share your experience report here if you're willing to, thanks.

If HMD will push Android 10 officially, you can install it under ADB sideload easily and link will be posted here.

Internal build version: A1N-5060-0-00WW-B01
It will be updated from: A1N-414K-0-00WW-B01, which is unreleased January 2020 Security Update.

Let me tell you how to verify:
1. Dial *#*#227#*#* to check current Version. If older than A1N-414J-0-00WW-B03, update to 414J before proceed. (Alternately, dial *#*#7837#*#* to check, proceed if displays 00WW_4_14J-B03)
FYI, 414J is December 2019 Security Update.

Alternately, you can use command "fastboot oem getversions" under fastboot mode / Download mode to check current firmware version.

2. Install A1N-414K-0-00WW-B01-414J-0-00WW-B03-update.zip with adb sideload under recovery.

3. Reboot to normal OS and recovery again - it's not over yet.

4. Install A1N-5060-0-00WW-B01-414K-0-00WW-B01-update.zip with adb sideload under recovery.

5. Reboot your phone.

That's it.
If Android 10 official update pushed publicly, link will be updated here.

[christophebeuvry]

Hi, I installed Android 10 on my Nokia 8 sirocco and since then, impossible to make gcam work. I have tried many versions but the application closes directly. Gcam worked perfectly on android 9. Do you have any solutions? Thank you.

 

[OneWayGamer]

Hey is it possible to install this on Nokia 8(TA-1004)?

 

[hikari_calyx]

To experienced developers:

Here's the full partition dump of Android 10 for A1N.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261769554

If you'd like to port this to Nokia 8 (NB1, TA1004/1012/1052), now it's your chance.

Note this cannot be flashed to Nokia 8 NB1 directly.

To subscriber of this topic:

Nokia 8 Sirocco just got Android 10 official update.
If you have installed A1N-5120-0-00WW-B01 build (dial *#*#7837#*#* and output might be 00WW_5_120-B01), then it's same to official build and enjoy it.

We're fetching full OTA link and update soon.

Ok,
Because I was tired of waiting for Nokia to send the OTA update to my phone, I did this manually on a device that was running the latest March security patch and Android 9 using ADB and the A1N-5120-0-00WW-B01-414M-0-00WW-B01-update.zip package.

Follow the below guide if you want to update your device as well:

- dial *#*#7837#*#* and check that software is 414m
- download adb and fastboot from Google official site ( https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip )
- download the update ( https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261750327 )
- reboot the phone in recovery mode and go to Apply update to ADB ( guide how to reboot to recovery: https://www.hardreset.info/devices/nokia/nokia-8-sirocco/recovery-mode/ )
- placed all the above files ( firmware and google adb abd fastboot ) in the same folder open a CMD window and use the following command: ADB sideload A1N-5120-0-00WW-B01-414M-0-00WW-B01-update.zip
- wait for the update to finish, select reboot system now and reboot the phone.

Voilla, you are running the latest Android.

Things noticed after the update:
- phone feels a little bit snappier
- interface is the same, minor icon changes bug generally is the same
- has android 10 gesture navigation which does not work with a third party launcher

Hi!
Can you tell me how I can flash the latest full OTA of A1N-5120 build? I'm already on this update, but my phone is fully buggy after the official OTA update. I make a factory reset with clearing cache and some other folders by boot menu and I think I was delete something important. Get me advise, please! Thanks!

Hi!

I make a factory reset with clearing cache and some other folders by boot menu and I think I was delete something important. Get me advise, please! Thanks!

I also have some problems with the phone running the latest OTA and also want to flash the latest OTA from file because neither factory reset from Settings nor from Recovery menu didn't help.
I've downloaded the file from https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/nokia_a1nsprout_avenger00ww/69b78c6f6a866f314a3b50e7ac88cd10e94233e7.zip, then copied it to the root of my Sirocco and dialed *#*#874#*#* but that didn't work for me.
I read that the file should have correct name - may be that is the problem?
What is the correct name for file so that it could be accepted as an update by the phone already running the same OTA?
