Hello RAR1991,

[Discussion] Oreo is very close

This thread will be deleted, but I just want to let you know that we will start to recieve the oreo update in two weeks from now. I spoke with Huawei and they confirmed this in a private chat.
Today I found in firmware finder this, a rollback to emui 5.1 .. This is obviously because of 8.0
(I hope I was understandable)

China (AL00) will probably get it first. So the wait might be a little longer than soon.

yeah already using it. so far i dont have any issue also i think battery is better than before.
EMUI 8.0 Beta comes with Treble enabled.
Thumbs up for Huawei for knowing what dev community needs.
With that said, hopefully someone will start developing custom AOSP Treble ROM for this device.

there is already a lone ROM for our device. i thinki it's under the mate 10 lite forums and i bet it's based on stock rom. i don't haveplans to root and try it out though as we don't yet have full firmware packages for those who want to reflash. i hope huawei won't be so stingy giving out full firmware packages tho.

Holy **** I can't believe that this is actually possible, simply wow. I'm simply baffled that Huawei did this. Looks like our Lites won't be obsolete when Android 9 comes.

Course it won't. If huawei obeys google's 2-year update policy, we should also get P as our last update but i'm crossing my fingers for android Q. ??? since huawei was kind enough to update P9 to O, making it 3 major updates. My friend previously owns a P9. Now she owns a Mate 10.
As per Huawei Officials in my country, Oreo update will be rolled out before end of 3rd quarter of 2018.

Are you from Pakistan?
Strange how everybody reports about Huawei officials telling them even the slightest hints about the rollout, and in Slovenia, they simply tell you that they don't have any info and your phone will notify you about the update.

GUIDE: Root Huawei P10 PLUS OREO 8.0.0 EMUI 8.0.0 WORKS PERFECTLY!

( this guide works perfect , i recommend that someone can make a better full guide , mine is working but i did it very fast, just to let people know, that you can root Huawei P10 Plus with OREO easily and fast without needing this rebranding thing.. )
1. First unlock your bootloader following Huawei unlock method. you can doing it here in french: https://hwid5.vmall.com/CAS/portal/userRegister/regbyemail.html
English here:
https://hwid5.vmall.com/CAS/portal/...huawei.com/en/source/plugin/hwlogin/login.php
IMPORTANT ***** Official Huawei web page for Unlock Bootloader is DOWN for a month for maintenance, someone confirmed this on xda forum, you can try to contact Huawei for a bootloader unlock request here:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeGwoQ44zqykuTfjCQrVP07JOHBYnBcAxAbz9SAVxPTFqMh9g/viewform
BUT you need to do this:
Go to Settings > Developer Options and enable ‘OEM Unlocking’.
you need to do other small things if it doesnt work, i made this guide fast , i know newbies will have a few difficulties, but this guide to root p10 plus is possible to do for everyone, someone need to do a better guide than mine im in a hurry these times, sorry)
2. Follow this little guide. and use FHMate10Tool joined in the guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/how-to/guide-how-to-root-p10-p10-oreo-firmware-t3720443
After 2 reboots your phone will be rooted. no need to do this rebranding thing ...
NOTE: WORKS WITH ROGERS CANADA HUAWEI P10 PLUS. Should works with any P10 PLus phone. my version is : VKY0L09 8.0.0.310(C654) OREO android os 8.0.0. EMUI 8.0.0
DONT WORRY i know the app is for Huawei Mate 10, but it will work for P10 Plus. it was done by Funky huawei, i know these guys, i paid for their service in the past, i unbricked a phone with them, their apps works flawessly, i suppose the joined app by funky has been uploaded by the guy in the guide, dont worry use it on your p10 plus. its free

Thats true, but for new devices only. If your device is prior to may 2018, you still have 2 months time to get the code, before the service becomes unavailable. The code is available at this link:

I didnt find any free service.
All the links to the Huawei services are down. And they dont give the unlock code anymore..
But on the bright side, it is just a couple of dollars so well worth the money. Searching for a hour costs you more

This is not true if you are on the latest firmware.
I was refunded and told:
Huawei has updated security and its impossible to read bootloader unlock code on new firmwares.
Only 30 euro service can unlock latest firmware bootloader.
Any other way of rooting and putting on a basic ROM now ?

No you'll have to rebrand your phone first if you want that. This involves unlocking your bootloader, which Huawei doesn't support anymore.

Yes, until Huawei pushes an update for your brand. DC unlocker can unlock your bootloader, but it will cost you about 5 USD.

Is it me or DC unlocker's web page for buying credits is down?
I did not get a new update for more than a year, phone was stuck on Nougat version. I recently called Huawei support, explained the problem, they asked me IMEI and told me to wait two/three week. Yesterday I got all updates, now on Oreo - 8.0.0.375 version .

Up, I ask the same thing
Ok ok gsi and openkirin arent the same but in some ways are however as phatpows noted out there, me and another Dev are working on to fix those bugs in twrp and see what we can do to expand the custom rom availability for this device.
For bootloader unlocking I don't know anymore ask around on honor/Huawei communities and see if anyone is giving out free unlocker bootloader codes if not and you can't wait, you can get one at your service centre if you live in India apparently I live in London and I don't think we have one although we have funkyhuawei like every other country globally so just phone up or just request a bootloader unlocker codes for 55 dollars ruffly 43 pound sterling
Hope this helps and answers everyones queries for the time being.

We have to find a way to unlock the bootloader without paying, if there are few people the modding for this smartphone will be very slow, so many do not unlock it because it costs a lot the key Funkyhiawei! Prediction, there will be a way in the future to unlock the free bootloader??? I'm hoping for it day after day in a solution.
I'll stay stock because I can't afford to spend money being unemployed.
I've tried flashing stock recovery but twrp is still there as my recovery
Any help???

AI should be working as it has Huawei's camera app. However on Honor Play, personally for me fingerprint didn't work for screen unlock. It did work for gestures and everything but the screen unlock. I have tried more than a couple times with different gsi's and everytime I roll back to emui due to FP issue

THERE'S NO WAY to ROOT ANY HUAWEI DEVICE released after 24.05.2018! Some sites had insiders on Huawei company and could get some unlock codes for a whille and get 100$ for them, but no more since then.
No unlock bootloader code, NO option to get ROOT! Read bellow link for more info!
Huawei will stop providing bootloader unlocking for all new devices​
