Tested both firmware B321 and B211. Managed to install B521 from B211 but not B321. I think B321 doesn't support B521 ota update.

I tried to flash from B321 to B211 - also failed. I have had enough - now deleted the dload & HWFF folders & uninstalled the Firmware Finder App. Will await the official update from HW.This post has been edited by Crystal2: Feb 6 2017, 07:31 PM |

Should try downgrade it to B193 then update it to B211 but then again you should wait for official update if you don't want to try.This post has been edited by dexz: Feb 6 2017, 07:44 PM |
