Where's our Nougat update ZTE??
- Thread starter xRogerxC
- Start date
Well except that there is no update available, the phone is great
I have now emailed the (woefully inadequate) customer services department over 40 times in a hope that they are even reading their emails properly to see if we're getting the Android Nougat Update for the Axon 7 Mini in the UK. Alll I get is the same crappy canned and preprepared rubbish. I think this is so poor, I can foresee the company will be demolished next year if they don't sort out these updates and actually listen to their customers. I'm so sick and tired of this. ZTE....no future custom from me I'm afraid....last device I ever buy from you. You have officially **** the bed with me....it's a shame cuz the device as a whole is pretty good....I just can't give my hard earned cash to a company with this poor level of customer interaction and I now doubt the validity of the warranty you get with the devices. If mine breaks down....I wouldn't risk sending it in for repair as I don't think I'd get it back.... sorry ZTE...I shall be telling people not to get your stuff in the future.....you have officially pissed me off royally....
have u installed?it works?each country have different fw...from russia with love...
Installed on my phone (from Digi Mobil Romania).
Works good for the moment, but only few hours of usage.
I have done no factory reset yet. In the past I had a lot of issues when using phone without factory reset after an update.
I can't download it. It comes to 98%, and then just quits. Help please
I wrote about this in another thread.
Also half year ago i used Spanish 1.0.0B09 firmware and it worked like a charm.
Same version numerating, same bands, signature verification... It looks fully equal. I don't see any problems.
But this is only your choice - to use or not.

Download on your PC, not on phone.
It was the same for me when trying to download on phone.
It's done.. it's updated...

Hey buddy, I am no expert in downloading software on my phone through computers, any ways?It's done.. it's updated...
yes bro, from Scotland, what do I do with the link provided?,Heya buddy, what you need help with? You in the UK?
Firstly, go online on any computer and go to the global ZTE support and grab the Spanish Axon 7 Mini android 6 file. Then grab the Russian update on your computer too. Oh and make sure you have a good unzip program. Unzip both files and then let me know. It may take some time. You will end up with two update.zip files.( Store them separately so as to not be confused )
)Firstly, i did not purchase my axon 7 mini from carphone warehouse, I bought it from Amazon so I do not know if it is a UK Or EU Model, Please see the screenshot attached so maybe I do not have to download the Spanish version.Firstly, go online on any computer and go to the global ZTE support and grab the Spanish Axon 7 Mini android 6 file.

Ok, so don't worry about the Spanish version. Go grab the Russian update file 0n your pc and unzip it. (your lucky, the Carphone warehouse version is buggy and restrictive )
(your lucky, the Carphone warehouse version is buggy and restrictive )Thank you, I didnt want to buy it from carphone warehouse as it only stated in the box it comes with a usb charger, i even contacted them and they said that was the case (Is that true?) no earphones etc. Plus I do not think you can use the second sim card for some strange reason, anyways Im downloading the zipped file, once I unzip it then what do i do?
Actually, the Carphone version came with everything. In the official retail box (such a gorgeously packaged device) with case, fast charger and earbuds, plus a cleaning cloth
After you have the file unzipped, you should see a file called update.zip.
Go grab your USB cable and plug it in your computer first then your phone... Make sure when it asks what type of connection you want (on your phone), pick the media transfer method. It should then come up as two external drives (if you have an microsd in) if not, should only show one drive. Hopefully you have an mem-card in, select that on and open it.
Copy over the update.zip file into the top directory of your mem-card file system., Then, after its transferred, unplug phone and make sure you have at least 50% battery left. Then just hit the update option in your settings menu it should work fine. Try that...if it didn't work....let me know...I'll try and help further if I can

I really do appreciate your help:good::fingers-crossed:
Nope, keep the update.zip file compressed. Transfer it to the first screen you see on your computer when you open the window for the sdcard folder the top directory as it's called.
And no problems Bud techs a passion, I used a raspberry pi to help me upgrade. It's my main computer apart from a pine64. (Ps, I detest Microsoft and Windows, too many rules and regs, and viruses.) Lol.
If I'm awake, I'll try and help
