The Huawei Y6 (released in 2015), also known as the Honor 4A in China, is a budget device. Its different regional variants (SCL-L21, SCL-L01, SCC-U21) typically run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 (MSM8909) chipset. This collection includes official updates (Dload) and unbrick files (Board Software) for various models to fix bootloops, hanging on the logo, or to unbrick devices stuck in "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" mode.


‼️ CRITICAL WARNING: CHIPSET & MODEL MISMATCH ‼️
  • Qualcomm vs. MediaTek: Most Y6 models are Qualcomm (Snapdragon 210). The file for SCL-U31 MT6582 is for a rare/clone variant. DO NOT flash the MediaTek file on a Qualcomm phone or vice-versa. It will hard-brick the device.
  • Board Software (QFIL): Files labeled "Board Software" or "QPST" are for unbricking dead phones (Qualcomm 9008 mode) via PC. Do not use these for normal updates.
  • China vs. Global: Models like SCL-AL00 / TL00 (Honor 4A) do NOT have Google Play Services.
