Both of them are supported.

If you currently with custom recovery want to back to stock firmware, or can't boot into system correctly, Computer is required to restore your phone, the only requirement is the phone can boot into bootloader (Power off, hold Volume Down + Power button).

OR

If you currently with official system with official recovery, but facing some issue like theme or icon incorrect, you can simply using OTA method to fully refurbish your phone.

Got it, due to some component requirement, the tool required .NET Framework 4.5 currently. I may trying to minimize the requirement.

Thank you for your feedback.

OK, If your phone currently with official EVA-L09C636BXXX firmware, you can directly select EVA-L09C636B168 in my tool, and set the proxy in your phone. But you need select download full package in [Settings -> Updater -> Menu -> Download latest full package], because this tool only support push full package. In OTA mode, It would not clear your data to do this upgrade. BUT a backup is still recommended.

Glad to know that "it would not clear my data" ,lol ..thanks for your help! ..ill adjust the settings too.

This looks awesome, might use it to update my phone seeing as Huawei are not interested in updating it!!!

I have used this tool to update. Current version on the phone states L09c432b170. But no sign of Nougat as far as I can see. I was expecting split view, a new launcher and a new status view. But neither of these seem to have changed from b166. What am i missing here...? Any ideas?

that would be because this is not an update to android 7. update B170 is no difference in anyway at all to B166 - it's a pointless update as the changelogs of both these two updates are the exact same as each other. if you wanted Nougat then you have to install the beta version for your phone or go to candy/rock shop.

I see. Could you please point me the way to candy / shop?

As far as I know, If that is a operator customized edition, I'm not recommended for cross region flashing (like flashing European version in Australia).

Based on the information from official website, supported bands for each region are same. However, the differences are some advanced functions, like VoLTE and Carrier aggregation.

I've checked the relationship of B (Build) version across different C (Customized) version, seems that is not strictly related to each other.

That means, the basic system version of B138 in Australia and B161 in Europe might be the same.

Thus, I suggest you flash to a nearest C version for fast update with better compatibility.

As far as I know, the C432 is the general version for Europe. The C636 is for Asia Pacific.

Cheers

I would stay away from update to Nougat with L19, almoust all with L19 had problems when updated and try to downgrade to MM after upgrade. Nougat is still a beta version with lots of bugs.
