I've wondering what would really happened if i am gonna flash a different firmware based on flashing different oeminfo
Original Firmware: PRA-LX2C636B160
Flashed after debrand: PRA-LX1XXXXB180 (EU HW, Dual Sim version)
I was scared when EMUI asks for update again then they've asked me to update system images too, right after a OTA update. It was B190 with March 2018 Security Update.
What should i do? Should i ignore this until i were able to go back to PRA-LX2?
And also what is difference between P8 Lite 2017 to GR3 2017?
Thanks
The names are different just because Huawei does not ship the same model-name worldwide.
Different models are sold in different parts of the world even though it is the same phone, almost (99%)! Things that can differ is the color and the dual-sim/single-sim.
Your phone is pra-lx2 but the software thinks its pra-lx1, so you will always get the updates for lx1 version.
You should not be afraid of the updates since as I said before, it is basically the same version of the phone. Updating wont hurt the phone.
P8 Lite 2017 is GR3 2017, and many other names.

Hi There,
I bought Huawei P9 plus in china in Dec 16, model no: VIE-AL10. I continually update the Chinese firmware on it, when the phone requests a new one is available. However I get fed up that there are still some features I can't access as I don't understand chinese and also I don't have a chinese registered mobile no. to access some of the Huawei faciilities.
Can I change the firmware to a European version? and if so how do I go about this. I'm not very savvy when it comes to mobiles so a simple step by step process would be appreciated . What are the main differences between the two firmwares which you think I will benefit from?
thanks
andy
On XDA, 'support' for P9 Plus is much less than for P9 (there are procedures to debrand P9 and install EU cust c432, wherefrom you can install custom ROMs for P9, etc).
If you google for e.g. XDA VIE-AL10, you can find some threads about installing TWRP and rooting the Chinese P9 Plus, you may further ask there
TG, I have P9 EVA-L09 which is best 'supported' (with L19)
GoodMorning
I recently bought a Huawei P8 Lite 2017, but this device is in firmware demo, retail demo, I tried to flash a complete firmware but it was not correct for this model and now I was stuck on the bootloader, I'm looking for a complete firmware for this model without results and I remain without a mobile phone, could someone please help me? below I leave all the details of the device ...
Device : Huawei P8 Lite 2017
Model No : PRA-LX1
Android OS : 7.0 Nougat
EMUI Version : 5.0
Firmware : B120
Build Number : PRA-LX1C652B120 (Europe, no brand)

Hi man, 2 months I patched the demo firmware version of these huawei, but these have the B120 firmware I do not know if it works in your B100, if you want to try I send you a perfect guide to make your huawei complete, it's a bit complicated but I think you can succeed, add me on Facebook: "Evolazio DePianetis - Fourth Evolved Humans System" direct FB Link: http://bit.ly/2EwZvty and I'll explain everything you need to do. PS: I already have all the files ready for the patch to get you downloaded, the only problem is that if it does not work on your B100, it stays stuck on the BootLoader, until I can not find a working solution for your firmware (for this reason I have not released any guide around the web and because I do not know how many huawei P8 Lite 2017 demo firmware versions there are around the planet).
I had a similar problem,.the fix for me was to debrand my phone and change it from pra-al00 to pra-lx1, now it works fully. You can find a lot of posts about this in this thread.

Are not branded are only demo firmware and are already PRA-LX1, what you say you can not do, you need a patched firmware that I have already done for these B120.
So, is there any fix for this yet?
I bought the Huawei P9 about 3 months ago. I am currently on Firmware: EVA-L09C675B320 Indian firmware with a 5th JULY 2017 security patch which is terrible. Recently discovered a few more firmwares in Firmware Finder however it says they ae not ready for installation. There's big bug too i.e. the camera crashes on enabling raw capture! Please help.
So I've recently purchased a P8 Lite 2017 to replace my old P8 Lite from 2015 and I've decided I want to get the latest version of Android for it having seen things about it online. I vaguely remember doing something like this with the original P8 Lite by updating it with Android 6.0 though my memory isn't reliable. I am aware of the risks involved and what can happen to my phone but I enjoy doing things like this and learning about it.
If at all possible, could someone explain to me the steps required to install Oreo onto my P8 Lite 2017? Or even direct me to posts that would explain how to do it? I've tried searching but, to be honest, I'm completely useless and trying to find information I need.
Is there any luck to update my Huawei P9 Lite 2016 Dual Sim from VNS-L31C900B114 to VNS-L31C432B160 firmware
to take updates from OTA ?
I am stuck with no updates to Nougat 7 from the first time.
Any help will be usefull.

This section is for P9, not P9 Lite.
If you want a knowledgeable answer from somebody who owns P9 Lite, you must ask there
P9 and P9 Lite are different phones (diff hardware), hence diff Huawei firmwares apply.
Here are users for P9 (not P9 Lite, not P9 Plus), don't expect (useful) answers here for your P9 Lite
