Extract the zip and copy contents to a folder named as dload
Switch off phone
Press both volup n voldown plus power button simultaneously. Once you see bootup release only power button. Once you see EMUI logo release both vol buttons
Firmware will be flashed thereafter. You will see 2 reboots

Mine updated from b180 n all data is intact

Uncle Benny, I remember your phone is rooted. By updating using this method, you are losing your root and a manual re-root + restore has to be done all over again right?

Only my China set was rooted and not the Msian set
This is my Msian set being updated
Yes you will lose root if update using such a method but your data will still be intact

Just updated to B320
a few noticeable changes noted
- different camera UI (same with P9). Pic quality need further testing
- ROG battery saving mode...which is pretty useful while still can use all the apps unlike ultra power saving mode
-Whatsapps icon now appear as the contact pic in round shape instead of just the icon
-others are just minor

Hi,

Testing the user mode just now.

Created a Guest user.
Switch to Guest and all call log and installed apps like facebook/whatsapp and others are not accessable
Guest can view album (need to check this out)
Call log is empty and so is the SMS.

Seem to be working as I expected. Now I can let a friend used it by switching to use guest.
