You can REBRAND your WAS-LX1 (3GB RAM) or WAS-LX1A (4GB RAM) to C432 (European version) and CONVERT Single Sim to Dual Sim!
YOU NEED ANDROID 7 (EMUI 5)!
If you're using Android 8 (EMUI 8) you have to roll back to Android 7 via HwOTA8, then you can REBRAND/UNLOCK the phone and then you can upgrade to Android 8 via HwOTA7.
===================
Requirements:
At least 50% battery charge
Fully Unlocked Bootloader (Phone Unlocked and FRP Unlocked) (Go to Fastboot mode and you can see if it's fully unlocked or not)
TWRP ( You can use any TWRP for P10Lite with EMUI 5, here's a link if you don't have one: https://mega.nz/#!WFYWEJjJ!HZGsY4WKdbYGr6M8VEeztDCzQe6UN020ro6f_g6V8FY )
WAS-LX1 C432 Dual Sim OEMinfo (TWRP backup) ( USE MY OEMinfo, TESTED AND WORKS 100%: https://mega.nz/#!ycpRnSqS!EW5acd5iYDofDGh4zGbWkWXvQwAnPORZB_FKv7KtRP0 )
WAS-LX1 C432 Dual Sim OEMinfo (Flashable ZIP made by KingOfMezi, I have NOT TESTED yet! Might works or might not) (Link: https://mega.nz/#!bYpkCTrb!jHOw1UAW_PcfWzK--e7YLqyw_tLqWuRBIz-eDI7rowU )
WAS-LX1A C432 Dual Sim OEMinfo (Download link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-k_1rnfFeEvdWxZZE1tNWwwOHM/view)
ROM Warsaw-L21_C432 (Download link: http://androidhost.ru/JT)
===================
LX1A (4GB RAM) owners: Еverything is the same as in the guide below, just use WAS-LX1A C432 Dual Sim OEMinfo and folder WAS-L21A_hw_eu (contains the file update_WAS-L21A_hw_eu.app)
How to:
1. Prepare your SD Card:
Download the archive: Warsaw-L21_C432B182_EU_SERVI CE_androidhost.ru.rar
In the root directory of your SD Card create a folder "dload"
Put the file UPDATE.APP and folder WAS-L21_hw_eu (contains the file update_WAS-L21_hw_eu.app) inside your dload folder
Must be: "SDCARD\dload\UPDATE.APP" and "SDCARD\dload\WAS-L21_hw_eu\update_WAS-L21_hw_eu.app"
Download the archive: DUAL-SIM-OEMINFO-C432.zip
PUT the folder "DUAL-SIM-OEMINFO-C432" into "SDCARD\TWRP\BACKUPS\YOUR_PHONE_SERIAL_NUMBER"
Must be: "SDCARD\TWRP\BACKUPS\YOUR_PHONE_SERIAL_NUMBER\DUAL-SIM-OEMINFO-C432"
Download the archive: Huawei P10 Lite-OemInfoC432DualSim.zip
Put the file Huawei P10 Lite-OemInfoC432DualSim.zip to your SD Card
2. Instalation:
Reboot into TWRP, create a backup of your original OEMinfo (if something goes wrong and you need your original oeminfo)
MOVE or COPY your original OEMinfo somewhere in a safe place
Now you have 2 choices (it doesn't matter which type you choose but you can use my recommended method):
(Recommended) Restore TWRP backup: Go to TWRP -> Restore and select a folder "DUAL-SIM-OEMINFO-C432" then restore the OEMinfo partition.
(Not Tested) Install ZIP via TWRP: Go to TWRP -> Install and select the file "Huawei P10 Lite-OemInfoC432DualSim.zip" then install OEMinfo.
Go to TWRP -> Reboot -> Turn OFF you phone
Once the phone is turned off hold all 3 buttons volume up, volume down, power until you see EMUI update menu
An automated system update process will begin
After successful upgrade your phone will have Dual Sim and STOCK WAS-LX1C432B182
===================
B182 is an old version and soon you will receive OTA update to B184 and then update to B194 and maybe newer versions later
IMEI 1: Your current IMEI
IMEI 2: 000000000000000
===================
Warning:
Then you will have LOCKED Bootloader (you can easily unlock it with the command: fastboot oem unlock YOUR_UNLOCK_CODE)
STOCK RECOVERY (if you want TWRP you have to flash it again)
===================
THIS WORKS ON MY WAS-LX1C432 (3GB ram / Single Sim) and now I have dual sim for free!
===================
It will works on WAS-LX1A but you need Dual SIM OEMinfo for LX1AC432 and you should use folder "WAS-L21A_hw_eu"

hey kingofmezi, i just got a new vodafone p10 lite and was disappointed to discover it had been software crippled to a single sim.
I contacted hauwei and know the device has two IMEIs (and i know them both), even though the about screen only shows one.
If change the firmware to a debranded one, will it automatically show the two IMEIs, or do i have to do something else.

How you got 2nd IMEI from Huawei?
I have only one IMEI, the 2nd is only 00000...
I'm not sure, but you can try with HCU Client (https://hcu-client.com/) to add 2nd IMEI.
Keep in mind that this is a PAID service!!!

I am aware of this one and avast blocked it for further assessment.
Also i only need to use one time. I can't believe it is not possible to fix this free of charge. especially when i know the real value that has to be set.
Seems the value to 2 digits more than the base value.

Can you please share the information, or PM me with the details.
I managed to check with HW and every dual sim device will have a ime. it should be 2 more than the base one
Also, i don't know how it is possible, but my phone number from SIM1-DE, is now on SIM2-CZ and SIM1 is blank.
Hi guys,first of all nice work for managing to enable second SIM but my question is if i do all of this...can I call use sms and data on second sim what's deal about that I mean if its not usable then there is no point of going through risk of doing all of this.

There are no problems using the 2 sim cards. I use Sim1 for calls and Sim2 for internet data.

Try with TWRP Restore!
Flashing ZIP is not tested, this zip is provided by KingOfMezi but I have not tested it.
I have used TWRP backup/restore method on my phone!
Download this https://mega.nz/#!ycpRnSqS!EW5acd5iYDofDGh4zGbWkWXvQwAnPORZB_FKv7KtRP0 (this is my own OemInfo)
And then do this:
PUT the folder "DUAL-SIM-OEMINFO-C432" into "SDCARD\TWRP\BACKUPS\YOUR_PHONE_SERIAL_NUMBER"
Must be: "SDCARD\TWRP\BACKUPS\YOUR_PHONE_SERIAL_NUMBER\DUAL-SIM-OEMINFO-C432"
Restore TWRP backup: Go to TWRP -> Restore and select a folder "DUAL-SIM-OEMINFO-C432" then restore the OEMinfo partition.
That's the way I did it! Works fine.
Then follow the rest of instruction for install B182.
Could someone be so kind of telling why you were doing this? I mean your phones just have the capability of putting one sim into the phone, the second sim is just virtual? If I am understanding something wrong please correct me
EDIT: Oh, now i saw... there's the possibility to put in a second sim card lol
assuming to what you say its just blocked by the software
Here I am able to do everything according to the instructions how you stated !!! It's great, the phone works without error! I still managed to put a 32 GB SD Memory Card! ALL WORK WITHOUT ERRORS !!!
SIM -1 SIM -2 SD CARD 32GB all in same time! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Here is the link for SD Card and SIM 2 correction !

Thankful to you tutorial and service ROM Warsaw-L21_C432, i convert my WAS-AL00C00 to WAS-LX1AC432B182, and then update to B184.
The newest version is B198, but i won't update to it. Thanks
thanks for the guide, I had to perform it twice, whole procedure two times. Then it worked out, 3 devices pending, 4 colleagues satisfied
Hello, if you have the sim locked to a carrier, do this unlock that sim? when you add the second sim, will it be locked to the carrier too?

Yes, if you SIM is locked to some carrier 2nd SIM will also be locked to the same carrier. There is NO free way to unlock it!
You can unlock the SIM slots with HCU Client and costs only 3 euro (3 credits).
Look here how to unlock the SIM slots: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76153312&postcount=2

Hi! I have the China specific EVA-AL10 version of the Huawei P9. The phone works perfectly in India, although the stock browser , voice command and some other apps work only in Chinese. It doesn't even recognise a Huawei watch brought in the US. I know this phone, same version is available in the US and Europe. I am sure their must b other firmware too..can anyone please suggest a solution...I think k a different ...more open firmware is needed
I am in the same situation. I didn't flash a new rom. I just changed the default app, such as message, browser, etc.
You can user google launcher, which gives you the classic UI, and you can set the voice assistant as google now, so that you can use "Okay Google" to voice control it. Just that the original Chinese voice assistant is still there, just ignore it.
Can't change the default Launcher...what's the workaround

Just a heads up about the BL unlock. The code I got from Huawei website did not work for me. I got an error message that the password was wrong when I entered unlock command. I got a code from DC unlocker ($4 euors. Which was different from the Huawei site) and it worked for me.
Converting to from AL10 to L19 was very beneficial to me. I have no issues so far.

according to willMyPhoneWork site,
EVA-L19 (Global Dual SIM version) 4G LTE: Band4-AWS, Band7-2600MHz
the L19 is not fully compatible with my mobile provider,
EVA-AL10 (China, Dual SIM version) 4G LTE: Band17-700MHz, Band4-AWS, Band2-1900MHz, Band7-2600MHz
EVA-L09 (Global Single SIM version)4G LTE: Band17-700MHz, Band4-AWS, Band2-1900MHz, Band7-2600MHz
EVA-L29 (Global Dual SIM version) 4G LTE: Band17-700MHz, Band4-AWS, Band2-1900MHz, Band7-2600MHz
if I flash my AL10 to L19, is that means I can't use LTE?
can any one let me know ?
thanks,
I don't have any issues with LTE after debranding my AL10 to L19. I use dual sim set up with ATT and Tmobile in United States and it works fine. Just keep in mind that only one sim can be LTE and the other will have to be 2G.
thanks for your clarification,
I plan to use only 1 SIM card + MicroSD

Yes you will need to unlock the bootloader. You need to go back to MM if you want to debrand with the SRK tool. SRK tool has oeminfo for L19C636 and L19185.
Initially, I debranded my AL10 to L19C636 (asia). I had to downgrade to MM and used SRK tool. But I was not able to get OTA to latest Nougat.
So I debranded again, but this time to L19C432 (SRK tool only has oeminfo for L09C432, but not L19C432). I followed this guide from Tecalote to do it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72153575&postcount=2.
It does not use the SRKtool, so you will have to do must of the steps manually. Be sure to follow it EXACTLY.
I hope this helps.

I have the Eva-al10 and would like to get rid off the chinese letters and download attachments problems.
Could someone post a step by step process to change it to L19 ( for android dummies like myself)?
I suggest debranding your device
I just debranded my EVA-AL10 to EVA-L09 (european version) and everything is working fine but it wasn't easy 99% of instructions (even on this forum) didn't work because they are based on Android 6 and if you already have Android 7 you have to find solution by yourself. When I have enough time I'll write it on this forum because I didn't find even one working "step by step" instruction "How to change chinese soft on AL-10 to european"

How you make the debrand ?
Hi
I rebranded my P10 L09C432 to dual SIM L29C432. After that all works ok. Before i dont save backup my oemino file.
Now i must come back to my original L09C432. Again i done rebranded to L09C432 with use under script option rebrand to L09C432 and replace in directory \HWOTA\update files for model L09C432 (donwloaded from this site http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=vtr-l09&firmware_page=0 )
After that all is ok but SIM CARD is not reconized(show only emergency call) and above WIFI in menu setting show still option DUAL SIM SETTINGS. Info ABOUT show correct VTR-L09 and build number VTR-L09C432B150
I use some version B130, B150 and B180 and still the same problem. WHen again back to rebrand to L29 all works ok and all sim works ok.
How i can repaire my P10 to go back to original L09C432 with single sim card.
What was done by rebrand to L29 that now i can no go back to L09 ?
Thanks for help.
Why do you want back to L09? L29 gives you an extra sim option, which is not that bad i think. the problem is and that´s just rumors: branded l09 phones are actually l29, but the carriers don´t want to support the second sim for obvious reasons. So, stay on l29.
I need back to L09 because i want sell my phone and phone has Huawei warranty. I need sell original manufacturer model.
Please anybody help me?
I also write to funkyhuawei support and he tell me that if i dont have backup oeminfo file i cant come back to L09 because tell me that file oeminfo is specific diffrent for each device. Tell me that this is not te same file on all L09C432.
But wat info contains this file?
Anybody has backup OEMinfo file from manufacturer model L09C432 and can share me?

I rebranded from Italian to l09c432. You don't have to remove sim while rebranding. Sim must be inserted before turning on your phone.
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Explanation of our problem:
If you have a carrier version of the singleSIM P10 (VTR-L09xxxx) and you want rebrand or debrand it, you have to use the firmware for DualSIM (VTR-L29xxxx), or you SIM won´t be recognized anymore!
The good thing is, after that, you´ll be able to use both SIM or SIM and microSD. The provided HWOTA rom is mainly for the L29. If you want the L09 you have to replace the "update_all_hw.zip" in the update folder. If you not sure how to get, take a look in the Huawei-Forums

Hello, I have a Huawei P8 lite 2017 PRA-LX1 phone bought 3 months ago. Originally it had a PRA-LX1C02B158 Vodafone firmware (Nougat) single SIM, but after rooting, unlock bootloader and FRP and finally after many and many tries ( I can not remember all of them ) I followed Almironi procedure (https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/p8-lite-2017-discussion/trying-to-update-to-oreo-t3814332) and the phone booted again apparently without any Vodafone files (even initial logo disappeared) and with Oreo version. The problem was that I thought that with f/w PRA-LX1C432 PRAGUE_L31 my phone will become dual sim. WRONG it still recognizes only 1 SIM card. Does any one really know if this phone can be flashed to a dual SIM version ? Does it have the necessary hardware since it only shows one IMEI ?
Sorry if there is already a post with this questions or if a broke any rule of this forum.
Many thanks in advance.

Sorry if there is already a post with this questions or if a broke any rule of this forum.
Many thanks in advance.

You cannot upgrade your phone from single sim to dual SIM. Dual SIM means that your phone has two slots for two SIM cards. Your phone has one. No software can change that.

Hi,
my phone has 2 slots. Slot 2 is used ether for SIM2 or for memory card.
Tks.
Hi. I have a mate 10 pro. Originally it was a branded bla-l09 mono sim. I, with funk Huawei, turned it in l29 dual sim. Now I have the need to turn it again in l09 and I think to do this with hwota8 (to save my money). This tool does not touch the mono/dual sim functionality. Doing this, there is a chance that it remains dual sim?
Thanks

Yes, because FH tool flashes an included (and disguised) oeminfo that is dual-sim. The included oeminfo changes your imei, imei2 and sn while in fastboot. Which in turn has also changed your bootloader unlock code.
HWOTA8 will only edit oeminfo to L09 but you will still technically be dualsim. I'm not sure how that will work on L09 firmware though. However, when you flash oeminfo you will have to unlock again, which will be impossible if you don't have your new unlock code (Acquired after you rebranded using FH).
What firmware are you on now?
Starting with BLA-L29C432B145 (The Night Shot update, so might already apply to all cust that has the new Night shot firmware) you can no longer get an unlock code from DC/HCU.

Yes I have a unlock code got after debranding with dc unlocker. Now I am in c432b148-sp1 (xloader 01).
ok i do all.
the situation is this: dual sim works! But in the settings, isn't any option to activate/deactivate sim1/sim2.
If i remove sim 2, It looks like a normal mono sim.
If i can manage it with a third part app... it was fantastic!

If it was sold as single SIM (L09), you cannot 'transform' (by changing firmware) to dual SIM (L29), because there are hardware differences.
For any flashing (changing cust for stock firmware, custom ROM, rooting, TWRP) you have to buy Bootloader code and unlock Bootloader (it is possible but the code is costly)

They are expensive. I'm also waiting for their answer (people say they answer from time to time, they depend on an insider, when he is able...):

Ministry can also do it, little cheaper (40$) but you will need to open back cover and connect Testpoint pins. Minister will need Team Viewer remote access to your PC. I guess (didn't go for, waiting if I can buy from the first above) he will low-level flash an old Oreo, where from it was possible to generate BL code. Then he would, IMO, update back to Pie. Guy told me the operation might take an hour or two:

I was also told that those can provide the code but for ridiculously high price (you can ask them):

Finally, don't use them, they only unlock BL for one-time (and high price) you don't get the code:

Exactly for VTR-L09 or some other Huawei model (it's not the same)
A year ago I played for a week and rebranded EVA-L09 to L19, tried a lot but it never became dual SIM.
To the other side, similar rebranding to dual SIM model worked fine and straightforward for P9 Lite
Edit: You could have provide a link to spread info and help the community (if single SIM P10 can be really rebranded to dual SIM)
This is what i got with MT tool
Can i install one of those updates and if ok how can i perform it
Thank's
