Debrand Huawei p8 lite 2017 - P8 Lite (2017) Discussion

Hi I bought recently the Huawei P8 Lite 2017 but it have the (italian) vodafone brand.
Is there a method, possibly without losing warranty, but never mind if will lose it, to debrand it in case if it will not receive android oreo? And will ota work after I debranded it?
Phone model: PRA-LX1
Serial number: PRA-LX1C02B156
Emui: 5.0.1 (Android 7.0)
Thanks.

For debranding your device you have to unlock your bootloader first.
Then you can follow the guide for changing the device from Single to Dual sim (I link it for you here): https://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=1326478 (guide is in Spanish,use Google Translate if you encount any problem)

Latest Marshmallow firmware for P8 Lite Firmware Single SIM (UK)

I am currently on “ALE-L21C432B565” firmware but it seems Huawei released a new one (OTA Updates does not show any updates, most likely B565 is for another country).
http://m.huawei.com/ukmobile/consumer/support/downloads/index.htm
HUAWEI P8 Lite Firmware(ALE-L21, Android 6.0, EMUI 4.0, C02B589CUSTC02D001, United Kingdom)
Would be good if anyone can confirm whether they have it - single or dual SIM? If not single, what’s the latest version for single SIM?
Thanks,
I upgraded to B565 from b133. Had to downgrade first, but I got to b565 on my gf p8lite. She had an update a while back to b575. Have you tried updating hicare and trying an update through there? I'm sure that's how I upgraded.

I had ALE-L21C432B183. Force Installed ALE-L21C432B551 and then again ALE- L21C432B565, however, showing no OTA updates. Now thinking of another force install - ALE-L21C02B589CUSTC02D001. It does not say whether it is Single or Dual.
Did you check OTA updates recently? Is it showing any updates? If not perhaps, B75 is latest, but not showing it on UK support site.
Odd numbers are for single sim variant, it's some kind of beta rom, it's for testing. I can't install this update over b575. If someone wants to try don't install if your LCD is boe_NT35521S. Update b575 is here forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/rom-p8-lite-ale-l21c432b575-t3417082
This is Vodafone specific

Just installed, this is Vodafone Firmware, build number now shows Balong C52B311, will have to reflash my phone now to get rid of it lol
gordonyoung53, lol, sorry man, thanks for the update, I was ready to try this....
I purchased P8 Lite from Carphone Warehouse. I am on B565, checked now using HiSuite and it also says on latest version. Checked About>Certification, and says Serbia, lol....Must have installed a Serbian version.
What is the current Single SIM UK version?
And where can I download it to install via force method.
Hi buddimanv, cant find a uk version, i'm on b574, also serbia version from sokkoban page
It's not serbian version, it's just certificate because serbia has different lows then EU. gordonyoung53 b589 is for single sim, I think your phone is dual sim because your previous build was b574, and buddimanv you need to manually update to b575 single sim, link is forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/rom-p8-lite-ale-l21c432b575-t3417082
Thanks Ker21 for clarifying, will checkout B75. Also seen a ALE L21C432B581 on following link - wondering whether this is the latest ROM? I am assuming b589 is for Vodafone?

If i read correct yor build is b183, that's mean that your phone is single sim and you need to install single sim variant, b575 is the latest one.
B581 for some reason fails to install. It's ota update, not the full rom. Install b575.
B589 is some kind of beta rom, on phone information there is a one more line with cut bild c02, some thing like that. Sorry for my English.
Cheers Ker21, yes, my phone is a single sim, originally had ALE-L21C432B183, then upgraded to ALE-L21C432B551, and then ALE-L21C432B565.
Sorry, I missed your previous post #4....Out of interest, you mentioned about LCD boe_NT35521S, where can I check this?
That's display numbers is only important for b589, because as I wrote it before it's some kind of beta rom. Just download b575, copy dload folder to root of your sd card and dial *#*#2846579#*#*, then 4. software upgrade>SDCard upgrade
Cheers Ker21, will update to B575, thanks
Any result about the B589 firmware?
This beta shows that I am in roaming and I can't use my mobile data...any advice?
After reading the whole discussion ... it's a single sim, and is from Vodafone.

To all Huawei P20 Pro owners (Mexico/Canada, CLT-L04)

Hello everyone,
This thread is for the owners of a Huawei P20 Pro (CLT-L04) which Huawei sells in México and Canada. As a owner of this device, I find very difficult to find a carrier free firmware and FunkyHuawei does not support this version of the model.
I was trying to rebrand but I didn't do it because there isn't a lot of information for this version.
So, in an effort to concentrate all the information about that specific model I have created this thread.
Remember that you have less than 60 days to ask for a code.
Huawei will shut down support about unlocking bootloader codes.
If you successfully rebrand you CLT-04, please reply with a source or your experience about it
Greetings, Mr.P
It's not supported per se as no there are no updates directly from Funkyhuawei, but if you rebrand it to a supported model it should be fine, I did it with a Mate 10 and I'm just waiting to get a dual sim tray to rebrand it
I asked FunkyHuawei and was told there was certain risk of bricking my phone so I didnt try as they said it would be permanent... If someone tries and get it working I'd definitely do it. As a Mexican I know Telcel will take ages to update this device, we're still on 102 (c69) firmware ¬¬
Im from Vancouver, bought my P20 Pro from Hong Kong, as the twilight wasnt being sold here yet. Im guessing its on the HK firmware CLT-L29
Canadian owner here, will be waiting to see how it goes if any CLT-L04's get rebranded.

Sorry for the noob question. Rebranding meaning CLT-04 to CLT29 for example? If so, I was going to try CLT-29 on the weekend form this site https://www.getdroidtips.com/huawei...t_of_Huawei_P20_Pro_Stock_Firmware_collection
Some people is rebranding CLT-09 to CLT-29 and viceversa. the question is... Will it work with CLT-04??
Here is the guide for rebranding. Still looking for info before try this...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/how-to/guide-how-to-root-debrand-remove-retail-t3788326
yeah same here. if anyone had success would greatly appreciate the steps.
Yes the steps of the tutorial for rebranding clt-09 to clt-29 works with this model
I'm from Mexico and have this model and the first day I unlock the bootloader before too late and then l follow that tutorial for rebranding and delete the crap apps from telcel.
A very useful tip from my to you, first make a backup using the unofficial twrp. NOT THE OFFICIAL. Because the oficial won't work well with this model and don't allow you to make the backup until you format data

Did you rebrand for a Dual-sim?
I know you have a single-sim because I have the same P20 Pro from Telcel.
Did the bootloader code change?
I want to change to a dual-sim before the time for unlock the bootloader expires.

So bye bye your 2 years warranty from Huawei Mexico, correct? Thats the only thing holding me from unlocking my Telcel P20 pro. I already have the code as i didnt want to lose the opportunity but just dont want to lose my warranty.
Yeah! I prefer lose warranty.
There have too much crap trash apps and outdated firmware so you can't have the full potential of this beast phone.
And more because some guy already ported Huawei camera with all the functions to project treble and more specified to lineage OS

I don't have the dual sim tray to try it, in that tread people say you need to put the two Sims to get dual sim functionality if not you see only one sim option on the settings menu
Just rebranded mine, L29 C432 still on .120 and no update available OTA. Did you receive any update?
CLT-L04 bought in Mexico here, just rebranded to CLT-L29 following the steps posted here. No issues so far besides Google Photos not downloading my pictures. Had to uninstall the app through adb commands and reinstalling again.
BTW, I'm not receiving the last update either. Still looking for a way to install manually.

Use the phone for 1 month, swim with it, test it as there is no tomorrow. I would prefer lose the warranty, and I am more sure because they give you 2 years of warranty. Huawei know they are selling high quality products.
Besides, the warranty in this case with the carrier, not Huawei directly.

How do you did it?
Can you detail?
Which firmware have you on the device?
You need a oeminfo partition from a dual sim and Full firmware, together should be enough to convert. But be careful...

It is pretty easy find firmware for dual SIM, but in my opinion if you flash this your device will remain a single SIM.
This firmware is for Dual SIM Europe region, Huawei Mate 20 Lite SNE-LX1 SydneyM-L21 8.2.0.110(C432CUSTC432D1)
http://androidhost.ru/7md
What is more import at this point is find a oeminfo for a dual SIM device.
My suggestion is that you may open a thread requesting oeminfo for SNE-L21, (I'm assuming that your device is SNE-L01, aka SNE-LX1)
To flash oeminfo partition you need TWRP or ROOT.
Have a device rooted should be more easy than have a TWRP working.
With device rooted then you can use adb commands to flash oeminfo, but first don't forget backup your oeminfo for Single SIM.
Then you are ok to flash a full firmware to convert single in dual SIM.
All this steps are risky... be careful.
-
Does anyone know what this firmware is SNE-LX1C782 ?? Supposed to be sim free UK, I would of thought we would have c432.
Any have the oeminfo yet for a dual SIM device?

How to convert Huawei P10 VTR-L09 to Dual-SIM?

Can anyone tell me how to convert my HUAWEI P10 VTR-L09 to a dual sim?
I need detailed instructions please.
You need HWOTA to rebrand your phone: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/huawei-p10-debrand-rebrand-update-guide-t3691013
Note that an unlocked bootloader is required. Since Huawei doesn't issue the codes anymore this may cost you a few euros (e.g. DCUnlocker).

I am not sure. Huawei changed the bootloader a few months ago, which makes it impossible to roll back to older versions. I sold my P10, so I do not follow its developments anymore. So please check in the thread.

If you search on Bootloader unlock on XDA you should find a lot of discussions, and that Huawei no longer provides you must buy from eg DC Unlocker (search also for that on XDA), 4 Eur credit
There are other services but more expensive
But if you are on c900 you maybe already did rebranding in the past (or somebody sold you a rebranded phone with a 'wrong' cust) - Bootloader code is one and the same for patticular phone, if you have it from the past you can reuse it
