Hi Guys,
I have P8 Lite 2017 (PRA-LX1C33B120) and I want to unlock the second SIM slot.
How can I do it?
I already have the phone rooted, unlocked and with TWRP flashed.
I just don't know what is the right firmware to flash.
I've tried some through DLOAD but it just doesn't work.
Can you please help?
Thx
Be very careful with flashing firmwares, a lot of people bricked phones and this one is complicated to restore.

I know... I was reading the other threads. That's why I'm asking help for the build I have.
It seems too complicated, but I really need the second SIM slot.

Have you pursued the device already with two sim?
Maybe you have the Single Sim version.

I do have the single SIM version, but it's possible to activate the second slot by changing the firmware.
The question is, I don't know what firmware to use.

I can tell you that PRA-LX1C432B110 is dual sim firmware, for unlocked EU PRA-LX1. But i don't know if you can just flash it or what are the steps to activate dual sim.

Yeah. That's it.
But I'm afraid to brick the phone.
I only have this one .
Your Phone has an IMEI. For Dualsim you need two. This cannot function. Wait for the next OTA update. If then afterwards only one Sim is active, your device is also laid out technically only for Sim.
Still can operate with one IMEI, did the same with Mate 9 single to dual, both sims working superb.

Here or this
Hello, I've searched around but so far I haven't found any serious clue on which firmware should I use to perfectly switch from single to dual sim.
Is there a list of the latest dual Sim firmwares available?
As for the IMEI issue it seems that I'll just need to use HCU and copy the first IMEI number to the second IMEI number slot.
Thanks in advance.
Upon further researches, I found this very rich topic.
4pda . ru /forum/index.php?showtopic=809771
Basically, I'll have to flash my phone from a C109 firmware to C432 firmware.
Can I just use their latest update.zip C432B175 from my C109B120 ??
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"
OEMinfo WAS-LX1AC432B182 (Dual Sim 4GB version) by LuckOne79 Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-k_1rnfFeEvdWxZZE1tNWwwOHM/view

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.

Why would i want to destroy the IMEI if i have a valid one

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.

I went through the thread and can't find anything in relation to fixing the 000...
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.

Thank you very much for the guide. I rebranded and converted to dual SIM my C02 Vodafone single SIM. Followed all the steps, no issues arised.
It was the guide I was waiting for, since the day the P10 lite forum was created!

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

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

I would like to ask about other solutions, or who has the account of chimeratool software, can I rent：○ it for me once? Thank you all!
I have an octoplus box . Can that help? I have only ever used it for unlocking phones.

that could help but it needs to connect to the phone via usb (last time i used octoplus was 7-8 years ago)- there might be a usb service to connect through internet but i dont know how safe is that.

No it won't work unless first you have to clone main imei via chimera tool or any other tool that help to colne imei and you have to buy dual sim tray also.
After that dr.keten rom will work as dual sim.
There are many video on YouTube how to clone imei for dual sim.

Hey, luckily it works for me as I have already. I flashed Stock android Q using odin and there was only 1 imei at that time, and after flashing Dr.Ketan's rom I have 2 imei and dual sim capability . And ofcourse dual sim tray is required.:good:

please can the process of converting N960N to N960F/DS be reversed, and how?
So, flashing the correct firmware for the device restore the phone to it's factory state with software updates available. Dual sim will be lost, (of course). and the device will show the true model as N960N, not N960F/DS

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...):
https://imei.by/delivery
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:
https://ministryofsolutions.com/paid-services/amp
I was also told that those can provide the code but for ridiculously high price (you can ask them):
https://funkyhuawei.club/
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
