Why you need to check the originality of the phone
The problem of counterfeit gadgets appeared a long time ago and is becoming more and more relevant every year. Previously, it was not difficult for even an inexperienced user to distinguish a fake. Over time, manufacturers of non-original mobile devices have learned to create exact copies of smartphones that are indistinguishable in appearance.
Fraudsters take advantage of this similarity by offering a fake for sale at a price lower than the original. Potential buyers see an advertisement or announcement about the sale of a smartphone at a discount and fall for it.
As a result, they get a cheap phone that does not meet the stated technical characteristics, does not have a warranty, and most often quickly breaks down.
Therefore, to avoid such situations, before purchasing a Huawei or Honor smartphone, you should check for originality. This can be done using a few simple steps:
- check the serial number through the official website;
- check IMEI;
- find out global or Chinese version;
- carry out a visual inspection.
By following these procedures, the buyer will be able to avoid the incident of buying a fake smartphone and save his money.

Checking Internet speed is an important task that will help you quickly work with Internet resources, search for the necessary information, download files, watch videos and other entertainment programs comfortably, and browse many sites. To check the Internet speed, you need to check the actual speed of the service provided by the provider. Make it a rule to check your Internet speed and tariff plan once every 6-12 months. Internet speed is growing, new offers appear from your provider, but unfortunately the tariff plan itself will not automatically change for the better; an offer to change the tariff plan may, at best, appear in the form of an SMS with information that is not always clear to us. The provider itself rarely automatically increases Internet speed when the company has such an opportunity. Therefore, we look at the websites of the main operators that provide Internet services and look at tariffs and speed. For example, MGTS provides an Internet speed of 90 Mbit per second in Moscow for only 310 rubles, the “Loyal Internet 90” tariff, which is a low price, you just need to transfer yourself to this tariff.

The smartphone is already an integral part of our modern life. It combines a variety of functions collected in one device — a telephone, an organizer, a calendar, an Internet viewer, mail, an entertainment processor and many other functions. But in order to preserve the appearance and functionality of the device, it is necessary to protect this device.
Currently, the main security elements for a smartphone are:
Smartphone case
Smartphone cases are one of the safest means of protecting your device. They protect the entire smartphone or only half of it (the back). They are made of leather, plastic, silicone, for different tastes and colors. It is considered good practice to include a silicone case with your smartphone that protects the back and sides of the phone. This case serves without problems for several years, does not require maintenance, and only requires careful handling.
The best protection for your smartphone are cases that cover the front and back of the phone. But although this smartphone protection is the most reliable, it is also the most inconvenient. It is impossible to immediately read anything on the screen or answer a call. You must first open the case.
Protective film
Screen protectors protect the front and, if necessary, the back of the smartphone. As a rule, now there are silicone cases included with the smartphone; all that remains is to protect the front glass of the device with a protective film. Any smartphone glass cannot fully protect the phone from scratches and chips. Any mechanical impact sooner or later leads to damage to the screen. Thus, it is necessary to stick the film. Conventional films last for several months, gradually lose their properties, and begin to peel off at the edges of the phone.
Not long ago, hydrogel films for phones appeared. This film is positioned as a more reliable means of protecting your phone screen. But it should be taken into account that if you do not have the skills to paste this film, you will definitely ruin the first copy of this film. It should also be taken into account that the hydrogel film has a certain thickness and if there is any impact on this film, dents remain on it. It is better to buy a regular film and stick it on the screen; this film will reliably protect the screen. Optimal screen protector.
Protective glass
Protective glass protects the smartphone screen just like a film, but additionally provides protection for the screen from impact. Not a bad product, but as a rule, protective glass lasts for several months. Then small pieces begin to fall off along the edges of the glass; at the slightest blow to the protective glass, it cracks, which means replacing the protective glass. Doesn’t last long.
Currently, the Chinese have established and launched the sales of films and protective glasses and are already selling several of them at once. Delivery is quite fast (2-3 weeks as a rule), the price is low. But these films and glass also do not last long. But considering the cost of protection and the cost of the device itself, it is clearly necessary to protect expensive equipment.
How to force update using three buttons
Owners of Honor smartphones cannot use direct device updates via a computer. In such a situation, you might think that if the phone freezes, it will not be possible to download the latest firmware to it. But this is an erroneous judgment, since especially for cases when it is not possible to complete the installation using standard means, an alternative method is provided.
This method is called forced update or installation of firmware through the engineering menu. With its help, you can install the current version of the operating system even in cases where the phone does not even turn on.
To install the update, the user will need to go to recovery. This is a menu with limited functionality that works regardless of whether the phone is infected with viruses. Its interface is in English. But understanding the menu items will not be difficult, even for a beginner.
To install updates you will need:
- Upload the firmware file to the smartphone’s SD card in the “dload” folder.
- Disable your mobile device.
- Press both volume rockers and the power button for a few seconds.
- Click on “Reboot System Now”.
Next, the download and installation of updates will begin. After the operation is completed, you will be able to turn on the smartphone and continue using it.
Regardless of how you update your device, it is recommended that you perform a factory reset first. To avoid losing data, you need to create a backup copy in advance.
How to update Android on Huawei using a PC
For owners of Huawei smartphones, there is an alternative way to install updates. It involves the use of a computer. So those who have both Huawei and a PC can easily download and install the latest version of the operating system.
This option will be relevant for those who are unable to install the update in the standard way. For example, when the phone is buggy or the settings do not open.
By the way, PC owners don’t even have to visit the company’s official website to download the firmware file. But there is still a certain complexity. You must first install the Huawei HiSuite application on your computer. It is through it that the update will be made, and the download link is provided on page
To update the operating system, you will need:
- Open Huawei HiSuite.
- Connect your phone to your computer using the included USB cable.
- Wait until the program detects the smartphone.
- Click the “Update” button.
Immediately after this, the firmware will begin downloading and then installing it. The process will take 10-15 minutes depending on the size of the current version of the operating system.
Before updating, be sure to make sure that your smartphone is charged at least 30%. While performing the operation, do not turn off the device or remove the memory card.
Thus, updating via a computer looks like a completely acceptable way to install firmware for Huawei owners. Unfortunately, owners of Honor devices cannot use such options. There is no special application like HiSuite for them.
How to update software on Huawei smartphones (second method)
For this tutorial we used the Huawei P30 Pro Although we won’t link to individual files for each phone, these update files can usually be found on the 4 PDA Developers forum Although a bad update will usually be automatically rejected during the update process, there is always the possibility that that something might go wrong and you might break the device. Please be responsible by taking the following steps.
For this first step you will need:
- Computer
- USB flash drive or SD card with a capacity greater than 4 GB
- Method to connect this USB flash drive or SD card to your Huawei P30 Pro.
In my case, I used a USB drive along with the USB-A to USB-C adapter that comes with the Google Pixel, although any USB-A to USB-C adapter should work.
- Go to system settings
by pulling down the notification shade and clicking the gear icon, or go to the app drawer and select « Settings» - Scroll down and select System
- At the top of the system section, select About phone
- Write down model
- In section Build number
write down the three numbers after C. For example, this is C431. Common area codes include C431, C185, C605 and C636
In the list, match the model number and region code you noted down earlier, and click the link to download the file. For example, the phone we are using for this tutorial is listed as Huawei P30 PRO VOG-L29 C431 Once you have the Zip file (which should be around 4GB in size), follow these steps.
- Insert the SD card or USB drive into the computer you want to use for the update.
- Format the disk using file
system NTFS or exFAT
Formatting will erase all information from this USB flash drive or SD card. Make sure you back up any information you don’t want to lose
How to update your Honor phone online
This update method is the simplest and most accessible. The owner of the smartphone does not even need to download the firmware file from the manufacturer’s official website. The fact is that updates can be installed online, which involves automatically downloading the latest EMUI.
To install the firmware you will need:
- Open device settings.
- Go to the “System” section.
- Click on “System Update”.
- Click the “Check for updates” button.
After completing these simple steps, the system will start looking for updates.
Phones may no longer be supported by the manufacturer over time. Therefore, the latest versions of the operating system are not available on older devices.
As soon as the search for updates ends, the owner will see the inscription “New version” on the smartphone screen. 
The owner of the smartphone is required to press this button. Next, the firmware download will begin. You can monitor your progress by looking at the round scale. For the fastest possible download, it is recommended to connect to Wi-Fi. This will also help avoid additional expenses due to mobile traffic.
The update process does not end here. If the owner wants to install the latest firmware now, you need to click the “Reboot now” button. You can also set up the installation overnight or the next day. 
Selecting “Reboot Now” will immediately turn off the device. The update will be carried out in this mode. After the process is completed, the device will turn on, and the owner will be able to use the new Android and MIUI functions.
How to take part in emui beta
Citizens of the Russian Federation, Ukraine and other post-Soviet countries are not yet allowed to take part in testing the new Emotion UI 10 based on Android Q. Huawei has not made any statements regarding the availability of testing for general users.
A statement was made on FunkyHuawei about the leak of the BETA version of EMUI 10 on Android Q. The site provides users with instructions for installing the OS. More details about the installation instructions can be found in the discussion thread on XDA Developers (this is the English-language analogue of w3bsit3-dns.com). In the same post there is a link to installation instructions.
Attention! Use the instructions at your own risk. Please note that this firmware version may not work correctly.
The site administration and the author of the article are not responsible for the use of instructions from the developer forum. According to some reports, Emotion UI 10.0 based on Android Q will be announced on August 9, 2022, it should appear on phones much later, perhaps the Mate 30 flagships will be the first, and the Mate 30 Lite will receive a new HongMeng OS test shell.
How to find out the current version of a Huawei smartphone?
To check the current software version, you need to go to Settings — About phone/About tablet — System update. The version is the three numbers after the letter B.
For example, build number V100R001C00B122 means that you have firmware version 122 installed. Any firmware with numbers greater than these is newer.
More information about firmware versions:
So, let’s take a look at the firmware numbering of Huawei smartphones. For example, let’s take the firmware from Huawei Ascend Mate — MT1-U06 V100R001C00B907.
You can find out the version in the gadget settings. You need to find the information section about the phone, which contains everything: kernel number, build number, model name and OS version. The last three digits in the build number are considered to be the firmware number.
As you probably guessed, MT1-U06 is the name of the device. M T1 is the main base, that is, Huawei Mate, U06 is a revision of the device. Devices come in different revisions, in this post I will not go into details of their designation, I will only say that the letter U is UMTS (regular 3G), and the letter C is the CDMA version. Devices with revision MT1-U06 are supplied to Russia.
- CxxBxxxSPxx — This is the most important option in the firmware, it shows on which version of the “base” the firmware is compiled Bxxx — the numerical class of the base for the SPxx firmware — Service Pack number. The higher Bxxx and SPxx, the newer the firmware. (Bxxx has higher priority than SPxx). Cxx is a region of the country.
- Next, let’s look at the firmware version itself — V100R001C00B907. V100 and R001 are the main version and firmware revision. They change in very rare cases, when there is a big change compared to the previous firmware version (for example, the transition from Android 2.x to 4.x). Even within Android 4.x versions, these values usually do not change.
- C00B907 — for most new devices, the value of C00 no longer changes, and in general it means binding to the region. Now the region can be determined in the “Special version” menu item — CUSTC10B907.
- So, for smartphones, the Russia region (channel/ru) is CUSTC10. The binding to the region can easily be changed with a special firmware file; in some official firmware there is an update.app file in the cust folder weighing several megabytes or kilobytes, which changes the region to Russia.
- B907 — the firmware version itself. I think there is no need to explain that the higher it is, the newer the firmware.
How to find out the current firmware version
Before we talk about ways to check the current firmware version, we need to make an important clarification about the Android operating system on Honor and Huawei phones. Although these devices are indeed based on Android, they have a proprietary shell on top.
Until recently, Honor and Huawei devices used EMUI firmware. But at the end of 2020, it was replaced by MagicUI. Old devices are still based on EMUI, so switching to the new shell is impossible.
Well, now about the most important thing. How can I find out the firmware version that is currently installed on my phone? The operation is quite easy to perform with Honor’s built-in tools. The owner of a smartphone needs:
- Open settings.
- Go to the “System” section.
- Click on the “About phone” item.
In the mentioned section, the user will find two important columns. One indicates the Android version, and the other indicates EMUI (MagicUI). Don’t be afraid that they don’t match. This is a normal phenomenon, since Android appeared much earlier than the Chinese shell.
When buying Honor smartphones in 2020, keep in mind the fact that new models do not support Google services.
The operating system version can tell a lot to the owner of a smartphone. For example, whether he is currently using the most up-to-date software. For some people, this is the most important factor influencing the possible purchase of a new smartphone.
How to find out what firmware version you have in your modem
Connect the modem to the computer, install the modem software (if it is not installed). Launch the modem management program, in our case, this is HUAWEI Modem Plus.
Click «Settings».
Next is “Diagnostics”.
The Diagnostics window opens.
All programs are here
It is very important to initially check the modem model in a special program; in this article I will use DCUnlocker.
We launch the program, you don’t need to change anything in it, click “detect modem”, after which you can enter commands that allow:
Find out your modem model: AT^FHVER
Find out the firmware version: AT^VERSION?
If you have firmware version 2x.200.07 and higher, we sew a modem.
Important. If the modem firmware is 2x.200.15.xx.xx, you will need to flash it through the transition firmware, more on that later.
Sometimes, when flashing firmware, the bootloader program may request a Flash code, to do this, launch the Huawei calculator, enter the IMEI, copy the Flash code.
The first stage is completed.
FIRMWARE
VERY IMPORTANT! HERE ARE THE FIRMWARE FOR THE E3372 H MODEM
Disable the modem, remove all operator software.
Next, you need to install drivers from the manufacturer, put them in order:
01 – HUAWEI_DataCard_Driver_6.00.08.00_Setup (modem driver)
02 – FC_Serial_Driver_Setup (Driver for HiLink ports)
03 – MobileBrServ_Setup (Switcher for HiLink)
We connect the modem to the PC, in the device manager we see:
This indicates that the device is connected and can be flashed.
If the firmware version in the modem is lower than 2x.200.15.xx.xx, or ends in .00 or .143
Let’s start sewing in order
01 – E3372h-153_Update_22.323.01.00.143_M_AT_05.10
02 – Update_WEBUI_17.100.13.01.03_HILINK_Mod1.10 (web interface)
Now it is possible to access the modem control via the web interface at 192.168.8.1
The final stage is unlocking the modem for SIM cards of all operators. Launch DC Unloker, identify the modem and enter the command at^nvwrex=8268,0,12,1,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,a,0,0,0 the system will respond OK.
At this point, the firmware and unlocking of the modem is completed, you can use it!
Who has modem firmware 2x.200.15.xx.xx
First, we check this list and, if necessary, flash the “transitional” firmware:
If the modem has firmware 22.315.01.01.161 or 22.317.01.00.161, flash “E3372h-153_Update_21.180.01.00.00_M_01.10_for_.161”
If the modem has firmware 22.317.01.00.778, flash “E3372h-153_Update_21.180.01.00.00_M_01.10_for_.778”
If the modem firmware is 22.3xx.xx.xx.715, flash “E3372h-153_Update_21.180.01.00.00_M_01.10_for_.715”
If you have just flashed the “transitional” firmware (2x.180.01.xx.xx), then you don’t need to enter anything, just start sewing in order
01 – E3372h-153_Update_22.323.01.00.143_M_AT_05.10
02 – Update_WEBUI_17.100.13.01.03_HILINK_Mod1.10 (web interface)
If your firmware is not in the list, but it is still higher than 2x.200.15.xx.xx, then be sure(!) to enter in DC Unlocker:
The modem answered “OK” — sew as indicated above
If it shows an Error, alas, it can only be flashed using the “needle method”.
Users of 4G modems may experience an unpleasant situation when, when changing location, the device stops working stably or does not receive communication at all due to the poor coverage area of a particular operator, hence the conclusion that it is necessary to change the service provider, but the native firmware The modem is designed only to work unilaterally with Megafon, Beeline, Tele-2, MTS, which means that we can either buy a universal modem that works with all SIM cards at a price of 2800 rubles, or strain a couple of brains and flash it ourselves, which we’ll do it today.
Update with hisuite:
- Download, install and update to the latest version the HiSuite program
— a utility for synchronization, backup and much more from Huawei (contains ADB drivers). - To further flash the phone firmware, enable USB debugging in the phone settings in the developer section.
- Launch the HiSuite program on your computer.
- Connect the phone using a USB cable in HiSuite mode.
- When you first connect, HiSuite begins installing drivers on your computer and Daemon on your phone. (a shortcut to the HiSuite program will appear on the phone — this tells us that the drivers have been installed successfully).
- Select the EMUI ROM item in the HiSuite program.
- If we DO NOT have a pre-downloaded firmware version, then select the Download ROM item, follow the link and download the required firmware version from the website.
If we HAVE, or you have just downloaded it, a firmware version, then select the Loading ROM item, we will be prompted to select the location of the firmware file. We find the file and confirm the choice. - The file download process begins.
- We are offered to save our phone data. Select the necessary backup items, if necessary, and confirm the selection. Or we refuse if we think that we already have saved data. After saving or refusing, select NEXT.
- The HiSuite program begins the firmware process.
Important!
- During the firmware process, do not disconnect the cable from either the phone or the computer.
- Don’t touch the phone at all.
- Do not switch to other processes on your computer.
- Wait for the firmware to finish.
- After flashing the HiSuite program, the phone will reboot and enter Recovery mode. A message will appear on the white screen indicating that the phone itself has started flashing the firmware.
- We wait for the successful completion of the firmware in the form of a tick. The phone will reboot itself.
- Turn off the phone and see a window on it about updating applications. We are waiting for the operation to complete.
- Go to the settings and in the update item we make sure of the version we have installed.
Huawei and honor updates
On August 13, 2020, the temporary license that made it possible to receive Android security updates on smartphones expired.
The essence of the problem is that without security updates, smartphones and tablets will not be able to pass SafetyNet certification, which threatens to stop the operation of banking and payment applications, as well as games.
Everything is so, only there is one “but”.
Huawei stated: “This will not affect existing devices. We will continue to provide software and security updates to our devices as we have always done.»
I would like to remind you that Huawei has created its own application store, AppGallery. Huawei will give 100% of its income from AppGallery to software, application and game developers. This is an unprecedented step. Because Apple and Google receive 30% of all sales from their online stores.
Therefore, many developers were attracted to this application. Developing your own application store will completely eliminate the problems of users of Huawei and Honor smartphones.

imei features
The IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) numeric identifier consists of 15 digits and is a unique identification marker for each piece of mobile equipment (phone, smartphone, tablet, modem, router) regardless of the country in which it was manufactured.
Important! IMEI is a unique identifier for each GSM and UMTS mobile phone and serves for accurate and complete identification in the cellular networks of providers. Today, many devices have been developed that can simultaneously use 2 or more SIM cards from different operators. Such devices have several IMEIs, the number of which depends on the number of SIM card slots.
Each device owner can find out their international mobile equipment identifier from four standard sources:
- warranty card;
- inscription with code on the primary packaging;
- an inscription with a code on the phone body (under the battery);
- electronic IMEI entry in the factory firmware.
To find out the identifier registered in the gadget’s memory, you need to generate a request *#06#.
After this action, a 15-digit code will instantly appear on the screen. For example, for devices with two SIM cards, the representation of the numeric code may look like this:
IMEI1:357885051455122
IMEI2:357885051455130
Please note that authorized organizations and manufacturers are constantly trying to improve the protection of mobile equipment from unauthorized IMEI changes using special software. In particular, this resulted in the fact that the identifier is now stored in the gadget’s memory in a special, one-time programmable zone. In addition, in 2004 the format of the IMEI itself was changed.
On older devices, the international mobile equipment identifier was represented as follows: 357885051455120 (IMEI 1 from our example with the last digit replaced):
- the first six digits (357885) indicated the telephone model and origin (TAC);
- the next seventh and eighth digits (05) identified the country of assembly (FAC);
- numbers nine through fourteen (145512) indicated the serial number of the device;
- the last, fifteenth digit (0) is a control number and until 2004 was always equal to zero.
The new IMEI format, on the one hand, is simplified, on the other hand, it uses a complex algorithm for checking check digits. On modern devices, the international mobile equipment identifier must be grouped as follows — 357885051455122:
- The first two digits represent the registered RBI code and indicate that the device has an IMEI and not a MAID (Mobile Equipment Identity) code, which is flashed on new CDMA mobile phones instead of 32-bit ESN (Electronic Serial Number);
- the next six digits (788505) indicate the model and place of manufacture of the phone and, together with the RBI code, form a total picture of the origin of the device (TAC);
- numbers nine through fourteen (145512) are the serial number of the gadget;
- the last, fifteenth digit [/embed] acts as a control number and, using the Luna algorithm, constantly monitors attempts to unintentionally distort the data.
Regardless of the IMEI writing standard, knowing the seventh and eighth digits of the identifier (except for the digits 00), you can determine the country in which your phone was manufactured.
Codes with two zeros (00) are transitional between two IMEI standards and do not allow identifying the country of origin.
View OS version using benchmarks
As mentioned above, before updating Android on a Huawei phone, you need to find out its firmware version. For this, there are also special applications that analyze the performance of the device, its power, conduct synthetic tests and, among other things, show all the information about the device under study.
- The AnTuTu application is one of the most popular comprehensive benchmarks for Android. In order to find out the OS version on your device using this software, you need to go to the section “ Info
«, where in the field » Basic information
» All information about the operating system will be displayed. AnTuTu also examines the performance of the processor, RAM and other components;
- In the Geekbench 4 program, which is also designed for Android performance analytics, you can find out the OS version by going to the “ CPU section
«; - In the AIDA64 utility there is a tab “ Android
«, which provides information about the system version; - In the CPU-Z application program, information about the Android operating system is located in the “ System section
»
These programs are useful because, in addition to providing information about the operating system, they will help you find out the technical characteristics of the internal filling as a whole.

1. Disable all antiviruses, connect the usb modem to the computer and install the native client application, along with it the native drivers will be installed, this is necessary for the computer to recognize the modem. (If drivers and software are already installed, skip this step).
I will flash the M150-2 megaphone modem with e3372h firmware, if your modem is different, just follow my instructions and do everything by analogy.
2. Download and unpack the archive with the necessary files (I indicated the link above). First of all, we are interested in the DC Unlocker program — a terminal program, with its help we will find out all the necessary information on our modem using AT commands.
Launch the program (the USB modem must be connected), click on the “Magnifying Glass” icon to identify the modem. The terminal should provide the following required information.
It is necessary to record the following data, which will be useful to us in the future: Firmware version and IMEI.
By the way, by the firmware version we determine which firmware platform is currently installed. If in the first value there is a unit after the two, then it is a stick, but rather than after the two there is a 2 — Hilink.
As you can see, my firmware is e3372h.
2.1. Lucky ones. After identifying the modem through dc unlocker, we might have some lucky ones who can unlock the modem for all SIM cards at once using the at command. I’ll explain what the point is, the fact is that E3372h or E3372s modems with an old firmware version below 2_.200, starting with the following numbers 2_.180, have support for at commands by default.
If the firmware version is 2_.200.07 and higher, then we will have to flash the modem in any case, since our firmware does not support AT unlock commands, my modem fits this description, so we move on.
3. During the firmware installation, the program may request a password; to calculate it, you must use the application from the Huaweicalc archive. Enter the IMEI of the modem, click “Calc” and save the Flash code — it is the password.
4. Before flashing, you need to remove all operator software under the patch. Control Panel → Uninstall Programs → uninstall all operator software under frequent → restart the computer, this is extremely IMPORTANT! AFTER BOOTING YOUR COMPUTER, DISABLE ALL ANTI-VIRUSES AGAIN!
5. Disable the modem, there are three drivers in the archive with the files. We install them one by one. MODEM MUST BE DISCONNECTED! After installing the drivers, connect the modem.
6. Let me remind you that at the moment I am flashing a modem — e3372h, for e3372s the description will be given below, but you can view the flashing principle; it will not differ much from yours.
Now we need to understand which files are suitable for sewing a particular firmware version. We turn again to the firmware version of the usb modem and compare it with the following description.
-If the modem has firmware 22.315.01.01.161 or 22.317.01.00.161, flash “E3372h-153_Update_21.180.01.00.00_M_01.10_for_.161.rar” -If the modem has firmware 22.317.01. 00.778, flash “E3372h-153_Update_21.180.01.00.00_M_01.10_for_.778.rar” -If the modem has firmware 22.3xx.xx.xx.715, flash “E3372h-153_Update_21.180.01.00.00_M_01.10_for_.71” 5.rar»
If you have flashed the transition firmware, then next we sew this “E3372h-153_Update_22.323.01.00.143_M_AT_05.10”. Well, at the end we sew the web interface itself “Update_WEBUI_17.100.13.01.03_HILINK_Mod1.10”.
In my case, the modem firmware version 21.200.07.01.209 is lower than 2_.200.15.__.__, which means I sew according to the instructions from the first rectangle.
I find the required firmware, unpack it and install it. After updating the firmware, new drivers will be automatically installed and the computer will detect the new device.
7. The next step is to flash the Web interface of my Hilink modem with firmware, you will also find it in the archive.
Open and install WEBUI, then enter the IP address 192.168.8.1 in the search bar of the browser and get into the modem management interface. Now all we have to do is unlock the modem for all operators.
8. Open DC Unlocker, press the magnifying glass, as soon as the modem is identified, enter the AT command: at^nvwrex=8268,0,12,1,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,a,0 ,0,0 press enter. O K — the modem is unlocked.
When you subsequently identify the modem in DC Unlocker, a message will appear with the line: SIM Lock status — unlocked, this means that our modem works with all SIM cards.

How are we going to flash it?
There are two firmware platforms: Stick and Hilink. The former interact with the modem through a special software client, for example Megafon Internet or MTS Connect Manager. The main disadvantage of Stick firmware is the speed limit of 20-30 Mbps, and the client itself is often slow, either the modem does not see it, or the Internet will fall off at the wrong moment.

The latter make a modem into a kind of router, accessed via a web interface (device IP address). Hilink has no speed restrictions and easily synchronizes with any router; for example, even an unupdated Zyxel router immediately recognizes the modem out of the box. Hilink has more flexible settings and is more reliable than stick, so the conclusion is obvious.
