Honor 3c (H30-U10) - How to update to Official EMUI 3.0 (V100R001C900B320)

As reported in our earlier post, Honor 3c EMUI 3.0 update is now available for download and available for install for users in Malaysia. The Update.app file is from an Official ROM designated for Malaysia, India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Nepal, Myanmar. So if you are from these country, this is the official update for you. 

This post would highlight more on the way to update your phone and actually a copy of the earlier post that also include the same manual. Looking at the file, we can safely say that there wont be any OTA update file or incremental update file for this phone and you are stuck with full system flash using update.app provided by Honor. The main reason for this is that Honor 3c is still on EMUI 2 (Jelly Bean) and upgrading it from EMUI 2.0 > EMUI 2.3 > EMUI 3.0 would required significant numbers of OTA files where at least one is required for each version. 



So for all Honor 3c user, this might be your only chance top upgrade your phone to EMUI 3.0 with Kitkat and please do not expect any OTA to be release because of the reason we stated above. There are 3 available way to run this update but all would still wipe your internal memory data. The 3 option below are listed from easiest to hard where the local software updater is the easiest one while the Engineering mode would be harder for normal user to understand. You dont need to run all but just choose which one would you prefer. Good luck!
