- Download Update.zip OTA package from above to your PC.
- Connect your Mate 7 to the computer in MTP mode and copy update.zip package to “dload” folder inside the external SD card. Don’t extract the Zip file.
- Disconnect the USB cable and navigate to Settings > Updates > Menu > Local Update.
- Choose the OTA package and confirm its installation. It won’t wipe your data so there’s no need to create a backup.
- Wait for the device to reboot and flash the update. The installation will hardly take a minute or two after initial version checks.
Note: In case you’re on B312, first downgrade to B137, then upgrade to B308 and then finally install this OTA – that’s gonna be a long ride!
