  1. Any word at all on the Japanese Axon 7 update? This has been a bit frustrating to say the least. I bought this phone specifically to be in compliance and it is a great phone. But there seem to be many basic fixes in the newer OS.

  2. Just tried it. this is with the 128Gb version (still 4Gb RAM) and dual sim.
    Gets to verifying current system….
    system partition has unexpected contents
    E: Error in /sideload/package.zip
    (status 8)
    Installation aborted.

    Going to recheck and will update on here.

  3. I tried the two methods and did not work. I have a ZTE A2017 version of 128 GB version 6.0.1. Please let me know
