Need help on Mate 10 - Huawei Mate 10 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi,
I have just got a Mate 10 from my friend, and I have looked around for 2 days but now I am lost. I am not quite sure what to do with my bootloader and how to update the rom to the latest version. My phone version is ALP-L29C636, 8.0.0.125, Phone Relocked. I am aware that Huawei changed their bootloader unlocking policy and some third-party services, but the steps are all over the place. Could someone please advise me what to do now? Thanks in advance for any help/suggestion.

You stated that the bootloader was relocked. This implies it was unlocked at some point. Do you still have the bootloader code or can you get it from your friend?

Thanks for your post. It was quite long ago, and he did not keep it I wonder if I could use eRecovery method of FunkyHuawei to update the rom.

I have decided to go with eRecovery method of FH, and now my phone is downloading 9.0.0.108. Hoping everything is going to be fine *fingers twist
*update: it took quite long but my phone is now on Pie.

Manual update P10?

Anyone succeed with manually updating P10? I have tried with no sucess.
Old method is not working.
Thanks
No but did you made the dload folder with the update.app file and then booted into the stock recovery mode?
I woudnt know any other way since they removed that from update settings : |
I tried that, does not work.
You can't manual update the P10 or P10 Plus, since it requires an online check.
They removed the ability to manual update via dload methode.
The only way at this moment is to use FunkyHuawei!

What about Firmware finder? I've tried this as well but I only get download failed, even everything is done as it should.
Hey,
I am working into this direction and got some promising results already. I am testing two more things during the next days (so that I can be sure my Stuff won't break your phones) and hope I can share my findings with you early next week.

Good to hear that. :good:
So, it is not possible to update, even the firmware matches your corrent model/brand?
I finally found the FW for VTR-L09C109, but when using dload method I get "Installation failed".
No, it is not possible. Huawei did something with emui 5.1.

Wrong you can now debrand for free and offline check this out https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108 can confirm it works

Not always correct. It depends on the local country laws you live in.
And also if you follow the instructions you end with LOCKED Bootloader so no warranty lost

Is it same with P10 as it was with P9, tha it say relocked instead locked bootloader, when you lock it again?
nope : Phone LOCKED
FRP unlocked so they cant see the difference they can only find out if they check if you got the bootloader unlock code.but you also could request the code and dont use it.
Any progress here? The update has been out for months in other regions but I still haven't got anything here in Sweden :/

Do you have a stock recovery or a TWRP? As I've read somewhere on the forum you have to be on the stock recovery to flash OTAs. But let someone confirm this cause I don't have the P20 PRO yet.

Yes, it's pretty simple. I made it because I wanted to transform my P20 pro single sim to dual sim and it worked !
After procedure the new bootloader become re-locked. You can't use anymore the Huawei code to unlock boootloader and you can't root the phone or install twrp.
Until Funky find a system to unlock without code.

I had heard that using any of Funky's procedures relocks the bootloader and the Huawei bootloader unlock code no longer works. But like a lot of people, I purchased my unlock code from a 3rd party. So it would be interesting to see if it survived a Funky method.

I didn't know that we can buy unlock codes.
But surely your code do not work after procedure!
Because Funky firmware chanche your bootloader code. And so unlock codes doesn't work anymore.

Yes there are a few sites offering bootlocker unlock codes. https://ministryofsolutions.com/huaw...-new-firmwares does them for 30€, although they only accept so many paypal payments per day. https://global-unlocking-solutions-...es,_Choose_Model_Below/p5093122_19186756.aspx is €35 but has no limitations on paypal payments. I believe that both are totally legit, according to P20 onwers here.
Funky Huawei is a strange one. If you use one of their options to, say, change your region, model number etc, it will lock your phone again and make your current bootloader password useless. And the bad thing about this is, they don't offer an unlock service. Unless you pay for their unlimited use pass, which costs $132. Then they throw in a free bootloader unlock. I'm not sure if the relock and code breaking is a deliberate act by Funky Huawei but personally speaking, they should be giving a new working code to anyone whose unlock code they've trashed.

Are there currently any ways to unlock the Mate 10 (/Pro)'s bootloader?

After Huawei killed their bootloader unlock website, users have been left unable to unlock their bootloaders. Is there something like dc-unlocker for the Mate 10 (Pro)?

Yes dc-unlocker
As far as I know there's only one for the Lite, it didn't detect my phone
DC-Unlocker not supported the following devices:
WARNING:
Huawei P20 EML-xxx all versions not supported
Huawei P20 Pro CLT-xxx all versions not supported
Huawei Mate 10 ALP-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei Mate 10 Pro BLA-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei P10 VTR-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei P10 plus VKY-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei Mate 9 MHA-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
DC-unlocker works if you're on BLA-L29C432B142 or lower. They did something in B145 which fixed dc-unlockers unlock code generation and the backdoor they use with DC-Phoenix. And you can't use FH to downgrade either (Not tested on B145 but on B148-SP1).
I'm not sure what builds are on other custs, but this is the Night Shot update on C432.
F*ck, my phone was 142 and I have updated in 145 just out of the Box...
Damn.
Dc-unlocker Give it a crack might still work, you just need to make sure you put the phone into management mode so it can read it phone. Just unlocked mine last night. Running magisk v16 working decrypted twrp and emui 8.0

The question is from 148 is this possible to Downgrade with Funky Huawei to lower, 142 for example and Root with DC unlocker ?

No it is not, at least one user couldn't (I know it's not much, but it's a friend of @Pretoriano80). I think someone in the Funky thread tried too.
It finds update and that but stays on 0% forever. He was trying to downgrade to both b145 and b142.

I have mate 10 pro running 8.0.0.141(c636) and I just tried dc it didnt work just got unknown error 375 everytime it tried to read it.
Has anyone tried BLA-A09 8.0.0.119(C567) I cant get dc unlocker to even recognize my phone.
Used DC Locker today on BLA-A09 8.0.0.111 fresh out of the box.

The one issue I ran into was fastboot oem unlock wouldn't work initially. I went into developers options to find the oem unlocking feature greyed out. To fix this turn off automatic updates in developers options. Then put your sim card in and restart your phone. (I was keepoing the sim card out to prevent updates) I was able turn on the OEM unlocking feature after this.

Guys, i just bought mate 10 lite and i have bunch of noob questions. Instead of starting new thread i wanted to ask here.
So my phone on RNE-L21C185B142 version. I read the forums and got my bootloader unlock code from dc-unlocker before its too late. So i am able to unlock my bootloader and root my phone right now.
1- Should i unlock my bootloader? I was using cyanogenmod and lineageos on my previous 2 phones. I like customize my phone thats why i install custom roms.
2-If i unlock my bootloader am i still able to get official updates somehow (like flashing from adb or twrp) without relocking bl?
3-If i install custom rom or root can i go back to stock 8.0.0.142 version so i can unlock my bl again?
Thanks in advance

Is it possible to unlock bootloader of Huawei Mate 10 Pro at the moment ?

I've contacted DC-Unlocker and Ministry of Solution to know if it's possible to unlock bootloader and they answer me it isn't.
Does it not exist any way to unlock bootloader of my Huawei Mate 10 pro BLA-L29 ?

Depends on your build.
I have successfully unlocked mine in December using an unlocking service I found on eBay from "mnz technologies" but it seems they no longer offer it. I also know of a site called "GSMZambia.com" and they claim that they can do it but the service is also unavailable at the time of posting.
So to answer you question: it is possible but probably not at the moment, you'll just have to be on the lookout.

Nope.
That said, it depends on your build if you can use HCU client to unlock. (Was patched in May 2018).
But there are a few services, all are down at the moment though.

My exact same reasons for moving away a couple months ago to oneplus 6 and I haven't regretted it for one moment.
Huawei pulled the plug on advanced users and as you can see on this forum the support has been killed subsequently where as oneplus has HUGE community support.
My primary phone right now, with xxx-no-limtis-rom, magisk, xposed and after dedicating my time it gives me a full two days of mild usage time. I passed my mate 10 pro to my daughter but she doesn't get more than one day. Pitty, it's a nice phone with good hardware, but having a manufacturer decide for me what I can do with my phone is just outrageous.
Sorry to flog a dead horse, but has there been any progress in getting bootloaders unlocked for Mate 10 Pros? I wanted to root mine ages ago, but stupidly dropped it and broke the screen. It's taken me a while to get around to replacing the screen and now it's good t ogo, but in that time it appears that all means to root it are no longer valid.
It is a BLA-L09 single-im Mate 10 Pro, which is at stock EMUI and Android of 8.0.0, with build 8.0.0.133(C782) and security patch 1st October 2018. Can anyone give me a definite answer as to whether I can root this, and if so, how?

You can, but you will need to disassemble your phone. You will need to use test-point to write board firmware, then use HCU Client while on board firmware to get unlock code. After this you repair imeis and stuff using HCU, else you will have no imeis or network. There's a lot of work for the code xD When you've repaired you need to flash a dload firmware, preferably 8.0 but it needs to be from after May 2018.
If you plan on using EMUI10 you won't need the unlock code as Huawei removed the ability to unlock altogether, even with the code...
It can be tricky getting the back off as it's IP rated. If you replaced screen yourself you probably have opened it already
Let me know if you want to do it, I can assist you on Telegram.
Also please note that a HCU Client/DC Phoenix license is needed, it's $19ish for 3 days of usage. And you will need BLA Board firmware. Dload to 8.0.0.133(C782) can be found for free on androidhost.ru.

Thanks ante0, appreciate the offer. I had a friend change the screen for me (i'm more software than hardware) so will ask them and see. Sounds like a lot of work. Damn Huawei.
Not using the 10 pro, but normal mate 10 with emui 10. I have option in developer options to enable oem unlock which might be bootloader unlock. and I have unlock code saved from emui 8.
1) Is there a point in unlocking bootloader if there is no development on roms? And is there even a way to root it with an unlocked bootloader anyways
2) I didn't want to lose data trying it if there was no benefits to unlocking it
3) I kind of forgot how to unlock it anyways, if someone had old instructions, I'd be open to testing if it works up to the point of actually doing it because I don't want to lose data.

It doesn't matter if it's Mate 10 Pro or Mate 10,on EMUI 10 you won't be able to unlock the bootloader, even if you have the code.
And no, root is not possible without unlocking the bootloader.
Root huawei mate 10 lite
Hello, my phone is huawei mate 10 lite RNE-L21 8.0.0.346(C432).With EMUI and android 8 and security patch 1st November 2019. Can anyone give me a definite answer as to whether I can root this, and if so, how?

Does bootloader CODE stay the same even after a stock update ?

in 2018 I unlocked my bootloader,
yesterday I updated my rom with a Stock version (EMUI5.0.3),
stupid me I didn't wrote down the bootloader CODE from 2018
so I had to pay 4€ to DC unlocker, it worked. :angel:
now I want to go EMUI 8
but I need to know if I will be able to unlock the bootloader with the same CODE I got with EMUI 5 ?
(i want to use lineageOS, but apparently I need to upgrade to EMUI 8 first for some reason...)

you said you did it 100 time, and the code stayed the same
but then you said you never had to unlock again
I don't get it. did you do it only one time or many time with different EMUI ?

in 2018 I unlocked my bootloader,
yesterday I updated my rom with a Stock version (EMUI5.0.3),
stupid me I didn't wrote down the bootloader CODE from 2018
so I had to pay 4€ to DC unlocker, it worked. :angel:
now I want to go EMUI 8
but I need to know if I will be able to unlock the bootloader with the same CODE I got with EMUI 5 ?
(i want to use lineageOS, but apparently I need to upgrade to EMUI 8 first for some reason...)

You can use the same code. I once updated my phone from EMUI5 to EMUI8 and I have also relocked the bootloader with the dload method many times but I have always used the same code to get the bootloader unlocked again.
