You might remember the nasty SSL library bug called “Heartbleed” which made headlines a while ago. Hundreds of thousands of servers,computers and many other devices running Linux with OpenSSL library were affected by it. This bug made possible for attackers to steal your data by intruding SSL connections of affected devices. Millions of smartphones running old Android 4.1.1 jelly bean were affected by heartbleed bug and this forced the device manufacturers to release patches to their old almost abandoned smartphones. Huawei too did this job quietly and now they have delivered the fix for their most popular budget smartphone Ascend Y300.
This new B209 firmware is delivered to Germany and other European countries. Heartbleed bug is fixed in this new firmware but unfortunately we don’t have a full changelog just yet. Its better to upgrade to this new firmware because this is the latest and greatest firmware available right now for the Ascend Y300’s in Europe. Here are the details about B209
Smartphone – Huawei Ascend Y300
Region – Europe
Firmware – B209
Android version – 4.1.1
Emotion UI version – 1
Upgrade instructions
1. Unzip the downloaded file
2. Place the Update.app inside a folder named “dload” on your SD card root directory
3. Power off and turn on your Ascend Y300 by holding volume down + volume up + power button

Is this frimware works in india??
i tired but a pink screen appeared..
Anyone please help…….
What do you think ” European region” means……
ManyEuropean providers like T-Mobile already had fixet the SSL bug last month.. I did not have seen anything special but the bugs are again all gone so it’s good for those who did not got an update from there provider last month.
I am also confused by the term Europe as a region. My experience with different technology is that in the UK we are sometimes counted as part of Europe, sometimes not. Do I require the update? Also I am with WE which includes T. Mobile, so has my contract provider fixed the issue without me needing to upgrade?
I hope Huawei D1 Quad xl is next..
hey Deejay T. Mutia U still hope they can give a update for D1 Quad xl ???

Not able to apply B209 in my ascend y300-100 updated with B189. Installation fails every time after unpacking. Even not able to root. Tried all the methods as discussed here. But no headway. Please help.
You guys should check out the G510/Y300 section at MoDaCo. There’s a repacked TWRP / CWM version of this and a version that’s been converted to AOSP.
thank you, was waiting for this
impossible d’installer la nouvelle version du firware B 209… aide? et l’explication est erronée et incomplète merci

No, There will not be an upgrade.
No problems installing this update..
The new Android L version phones will be in retail in October or November, so I guess people will gravitate to budget Android L phones to replace the Ascend Y300.
Can this update be installed on a T-mobile branded phone?

Versions 199 and 209 are not oficial and are custom roms, designed for stealing private data from your phones and accounts. Don´t use them if you don’t want to brick your phones!!!!
Not that, I’m blonde or anything but, when will people who are not in the Europe region access this update?
Hi, my y300 have 4 services that i think they are virus: setting provider-certificate-live wallpaper-battery control
They are in preload apps list and i disabled setting provider-certificat but when i restart phone, the enable again. Do you have this problem?(they don’t clear in hard reset or erase memories)
Please update file huawei y300-0100 b209 a Persian keyboard to email me. Thanks
…..nice
