Firmware update error - Huawei Mate 10 Guides, News, & Discussion

I'm currently running ALP-L29 9.0.0.109(C185E2R1P8log) and i'm trying to install ALP-L29 9.0.0.159(C185E2R1P12) though system upgrade option, but when i'm trying to upgrade it shows system update error message and the upgrade does not executes.
Do i need to roll back to 8.0 version first? This beta that i have now installed will detect someday the new version and upgrade automatically ? the device is already unlocked.
Please advice.

Dear
How did you manage to install android pie on your mate 10? I am still at 8.0.0.140 and no any update since 2months.

I'm not sure which method he used to update his phone, but you can use eRecovery method of FunkyHuawei if your phone is not unlocked with bootloader. I used it to update to 9.0.0.108 (mine is C636), going to update to 9.0.0.159 tonighf. Check the attached image, it shows the available Pie firmwares as mentioned.

Since Huawei stopped the bootloader unlocking service, and I got my phone recently, the method of unlocking the bootloader is troublesome and kind of costly, so I decided not to do anything with it. With FunkyHuawei's eRecovery method, you can update your phone to any firmwares available on their site even with a locked bootloaded. It is quite easy, you should take a look at it. If you decided to go with them, I'd recommend you to back up your data (HiSuite might not be able to restore app data) before updating. I had to factory reset the phone after the update because the phone might have some glitches. Really, I'd recommend this method, it does cost you $18 but it gets the job done. You can PM me if you have any further question.

I had an error while trying to update to 159 via eRecovery method. The computer does not recognize the USB connection. Couldn't fix it myself so I contacted FunkyHuawei and they advised me to do HiSuite method and it worked. I thought I had to downgrade to Oreo first but I just left the 159 on and it could update. May be that could be your solution too.

Thank you all, i have unlocked, rebrand and install Pie my device using funkyhuawei services but since i ran out of credits i want to be sure that if i renew just 1 credit to download the new firmware i can do the upgrade directly from my pie old build to the new one without issues instead of purchase more credits if i have to execute more tasks.
I've manage to download the new build from another site but as i mentioned as im trying to installing using the hidden menu it does not work

When is mate 10 (Alp-l29, c185) receiving emui 9 in the middle east?
Hi I am desperate to receive emui 9.0 after seeing many sites claiming the beta for middle east varients.
I joined the beta program few months ago but misteriously got kicked out or I must say the "my projects" tab was empty a week ago. I would like to know when actually huawei will roll out and OTA update for the mate 10, thankyou

Regarding to OTA, FH told me that we might be able to receive (this build is a legit build from Huawei anyway), but we have to wait and see. I notice that Huawei sends out update at different times to different locations for the same model, hate it. Mate 10 pro is on build 161, but Mate 10 is on build 159, so I guess we have to check FH once in a while together with System Updater. Actually, FH released official Pie updates before Huawei officially announced Pie update schedule, kinda strange though, many have a conspiracy theory on the relationship between FH and Huawei
I think the ROMs provided by FH are stock ROM, that is why we can update the phone through Huawei methods and not third-party ones. Let me guess, you did a factory reset after upgarding to Pie? I had this problem with beta version, and it is an issue with Pie builds, according to FH. If you want to downgrade to Oreo or another build, you have to do it via a specific HiSuite version, to me this way is so much faster than eRecovery. I can provide you the software, but I'd suggest you to contact to FH first, they told me that the reason they don't publish this method is because not every one's issue has a same cause. This is a last resort.
Hope this'd be helpful.

Dear,
They also told me that they didn't stop OTA updates, it's upto huawei to send OTA updates, I hope so it will be like this,
Yes I did factory reset after installing the Pie on my phone, because it was little slow and glitches. No ERecovery is not working to go back to Stock recovery. Can you please tell me that method to try it. Which version you are talking about for HiSuite. I want to go back to the Stock ROM and to receive updates via Huawei OTA. Its very strange to me, that updates are available in the market for the phone, and Huawei not sending to their phones, and also someone like(FW) able to update the phone, something is fishy. May huawei becomes more professional in doing promises.. and satisfy their customers more.

Yes, I also got glitches and many time couldn't turn on the screen, that is why I had to do it. I uploaded the HiSuite version here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NYsPYS6aB1BHaf1p5F_mJJJQMOSc0lql/view?usp=drivesdk
Uninstall your current HiSuite, install this version and follow the same steps (DNS) with FH but without eRecovery.
Not so sure about the stock recovery as you mentioned, but may be what you need is to downgrade to Oreo. I checked on FH and they have a new firmware for downgrade purpose, I don't know what is the difference though. Good luck.

Just received a patch for build 159 from Huawei, so I think OTA works normal on FH's roms.

Finally, ALP-L29 9.0.0.159 officially launched here in Saudi Arabia, and I was not satisfied with the FunkyHuawei software. So decided to downgrade my phone to Android Oreo again, and then update officially.

Whats the latest build # for Huawei P10 VTR-L29?

I just want to confirm i have the latest building number. I have a European model using it in Canada so maybe the updates arent pushing to the phone? Im currently on VTR-L29C636B120
Last for your model and market version is 162
http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/?firmware_model=vtr-L29C636&firmware_page=0
I have stock VTR-L29 model, BL locked and b151 is the latest for me.
It lools like we need to wait for some time until new update is available through OTA
For anyone looking to update to L09C432B162 the latest on Firmware Finder, I can confirm I just did it and updated with no problems via proxy. I choose the FullOTA-MF version.
The responsiveness and transition between screens is so much faster than my previous version (B113) that I would recommend everyone to make the jump if you can.

No, if you use Firmware Finder app (download from Google Play store), you can use the official update functionality in your phone settings to get the update.
It tricks Huawei servers that your phone is ready for upgrade to this firmware version. So you are downloading the official firmware file from Huawei, and it should install like a normal OTA update. No data loss, no settings loss.

Yes but you must use Proxy method. This ist the only was it Works for me .Another Thing is, IT will only Works when Firmware Finder dass that this Update is approved for installation

Question: Is there a way to downgrade from latest update to the previous one without root? I'm on a mobile data plan with my network and rooting the phone will compromise my warranty if in case anything goes wrong.

sorry my fault..i updated to 164 with the full firmware package from the site i mentioned, andf then after first boot i got OTA to 171.
When updating using Firmware Finder FullOTA (in-app proxy), do you need to be fully unrooted (stock kernel and recovery) for this to work?
Asking, because I plan to try this update method from B165 to B172 on my VTR-L29C185 and wondering if this process keeps the user data intact or it means a full reset later regardless ... can anyone confirm user data can be preserved with in-app proxy method? Does the BootLoader stay unlocked too?
EDIT:
all went well as per update itself via in-app proxy detection method ... however had to use FullOTA package to successfully install it and that I think re-locked the bootloader, oh well, at least it worked fine

Huawei p9 l19 firmware

Hi all, i have problem with my p9 l19c432 eu version. I had l19 c432b386 android n and i wanted to go bac to mm. My device doesn't have root or unlocked bootloader or custom twrp. I have all stock.
Tried to go back to mm dload method
1. Rollback package c900b300
2. Full firmware
I did step 1 and instalation was successful 100% but now when i go to about phone my android version is 5.0 NRD90M test keys, not c900b300.
I didn't try to do step 2. because i don't know so much about nrd90m.
Maybe my rollback package is not good, is there difference about rollback package for l19 and l09?
Can anyone help me with my problem? Thank you very much

That is the correct rollback. You just need to download and flash your stock Marshmallow firmware. In my case (eva-l29c636) it was B191. I had the exact same test keys in "about phone" , so just go ahead with step 2.

Thanks for your help. I was suspicious because it's not c900b300 after rollback package, it's ''NRD90m test keys'' and i didn't know can i flash full firmware when build number is nrd90m, so i stoped there. I will try to flash full firmware tomorrow.
Do i need to factory reset now or enable OEM in developer options before flashing full firmware or maybe flash rollback package again and maybe then i will get c900b300?

Yes, your data and apps will be gone. When you flash your M firmware it's going to make everything new as if you just opened the box. Sorry if you did not know that. I don't think there is any way to avoid that. I was just setting my device up and noticed an OTA update to B386 Nougat which I successfully updated to BUT then I found out that my P9 will not work on Nougat. I cannot scroll at all with it so I had to find the rollback firmware. I flashed it then immediately after that I flashed B191 Marshmallow and all is well. Nothing else. As I said, you will, however, lose all your data and I don't know if a backup can restore it for you.

Hey friend, i just install full mm firmware and everything is good now, i don`t have nrd90mtest keys, i have now l19c432b182, i found on huawei site for l09 they have rollback package and full firmware b182 so i found for l19. I think good firmware is the key of rollback, and b182 is the best for it. Thanks so much for your help!
I have only one problem, i can`t change themes. I can see themes and when i click apply it, it is successful but it didn`t change. Did you have that problem too?

Happy that it worked out for you. I have an icon on my desktop called "Themes", but when I tap on it there is nothing. I just assumed that was something that you would have to download and install from a Huawei website or get from a 3rd party app. Anyway, it does not concern me as I only care about throwing a pic on for my desktop. What really annoys me is that I cannot run Nougat on my P9
Anyway, good that you have it running again. I am on B191 and it looks like that will be all I can do.

Maybe it`s better for you my friend, emui 5 have great design and everything i must say but battery life is better on mm, bcs of it i rollback to mm. But i don`t know why u can`t get official uograde. When i rollback to mm b182 i got instant upgrade to emui 5. Maybe your version of mm is not good bcs when i had emui4.1.3 i got upgrade to b386 and now when i have 4.1.1 i got upgrade to b383. Maybe you can try to install another version of mm.

You can update with firmware finder app on playsore, search on forum, you will find tutorial for it.
Or with 3 buttons combination and dload if you can find update, or with twrp if you have it and you will need update file too. Just search on forum tutorial for it and CORRECT update for your phone, single or dual sim whatever you have and with c900 bcs u have global version.

VKY L09/L29 C432B162- Service rom

I found link and instruction for upgrade, unbrick, back from custom rom, etc....and I hope that it will be useful for the most people. My recommendation is to use force upgrade method with three buttons. Enjoy!

Thanks, want to try.
Did you flash it already?

I used those service roms with same method for p10 lite, p9 lite. I didnt try this one, but, I dont expect any problem because instruction is provided by Huawei. Just, read instruction, but again my recommendation is force method. Because, normal upgrade is not necessary with this rom, ota, or ffinder are more efficient. But if someone bricked phone, or has custom rom, this is the best thing for rollback to stock rom. The reason why to use forced method iis simple, because with three buttons first flash stock recovery and than stock recovery automaticly repair all system and upgrade all things.

No, no this rom is not for rollback. Only if you have issues with Nougat mentioned servise rom is usefull. But if You try rollback from Emui 8 with this yiu can brick phone. For rollback from Emui 8 to Emui 5 must use official rollback from ffinder.

How can you downgrade from softbricked Oreo ROM where FFindar can't be loaded to Nougat ?

How did you brick phone on Emui 8? Only solution is to try to unlock bootloader in fasrboot and downgrade using twrp, hwota. Method for rollback you can find here in our section. https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/development/downgrade-p10-plus-oreo-to-nougat-t3724382
Regards and good luck.

Long story. Three days was trying to get it unbricked, even it was in service shop, but they didn't do much
however, upgrade from nougat to oreo didn't went well at first. Almost an hour it was installing oreo update zip file in twrp, so I had to turn off the mobile phone in middle of process. At last, it booted to Oreo, but after a first restart (changed overall appearance from large to medium), it just bootlooped. As I had nandroid backup of nougat in twrp, I tried to restore to that, and my problems just got bigger. I tried to go back to oreo again, multile times, different builds, but no luck. Than I found the method you linked, and with great help of guys from Telegram group, it booted again in OS. Hell yes
Strange thing that happend that it didn't booted to Nougat, but in Oreo acctually. Probably LowLevel format helped to fix partitions and stuff, after that bootloader was unlocked again, As for now I have bad Oreo version (8.0.0.046) will rollback again to Nougat.
I'm try to download but on half its stoped
Hi all I used this service rom and it got my phone working again but there are problems the dialer and contacts apps do not work anymore I had to Install 3rd party apps and software update is gone the project menu won't come up when you key in *#*#2846579#*#* command. Fastboot won't let me install twrp fastboot screen shows bootloader unlocked. Frp unlock As it stands I'm stuck with a working limited phone. Does anyone have any ideas I could try

I found link and instruction for upgrade, unbrick, back from custom rom, etc....and I hope that it will be useful for the most people. My recommendation is to use force upgrade method with three buttons. Enjoy!

Please let me know where I can find the service ROM for a VKY-L09 (P10 Plus).
The instructions on this forum are written very garbled and not clear enough for me to take a chance and upgrade my phone from Nougat to OREO.

I agree with you all instruction for p10 plus make confusion. You can try this to upgrade to Oreo https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/how-to/huawei-p10-plus-debrand-rebrand-update-t3715288
But, you have stock emui 5 or some custom rom? Im asking because if you had stock rom you had to get regular Ota to emui 8. If you have custom just try to.use Hwota method from mentioned link. I have similar procedure with Hwota for p10 lite so it could be usefull in your case just as example to see how it works
https://youtu.be/m2hZT1g0jtg
If you have stock firmware emui 5, stock recovery and locked bootloader you can try Ffinder for upgrade too.

Thank you for your reply. First reply from Huawei contributors. Thank you.
I have stock EMUI v5.10 and Android v7.0.
I unlocked the device, installed TWRP and rooted it.
I would like to upgrade to OREO and was hoping to find a solution that will allow me to upgrade using TWRP as it is working and installed.
Please advise.
Thank you once again.

Update Huawei P9 to EVA-L09C432B506

I ran the Firmware Finder tool today and was surprised to find there was an update for the P9. Apparently it has some security patches. The firmware finder tool has instructions how to upgrade, but they're somewhat involved.
I'm currently on EVA-L09C432B504, and I've checked but there's no OTA update available. Is there a way to do this update manually? I've read on this thread these instructions - is this likely to work for this update?
Download the two files, update.zip and update_data_full_hw_meafnaf.zip, do not unzip, put into DLOAD folder on your SD card.
Phone better to be charged, switch off, disconnect USB, press and keep pressing both Vol+ and Vol-, then boot - it should start DLOAD

Pure DLOAD applies only to FullOTA-MF-PV, b506 is without PV
Check Firmware Access Availability in FF, if it shows Approved for your SIM, you could try if HiSuite or eRecovery give you a chance to upgrade (I don't believe it will work yet)
Otherwise, with unlocked Bootloader and methods like HWOTA/no-check-recovery, you should be able to force DLOAD to b506
Thanks @zgfg. In Firmware Finder it says "firmware approved for installation for 506".
I ran eRecovery yesterday but it started to download the 504 version. Would it look on the SD card somewhere for an updated version? If not, can you give / link me to a bit more information on how I would use HiSuite to do the update?
I see in another thread that Android 8 is available if you jump through many, many hoops. Given the age of the phone I don't think it's worth the bother.

If using newer versions of HiSuite, somewhere at the bottom (HiSuite window on PC) you have an option to install different firmwhere, and there an option to upgrade (and sometimes to downgrade).
But if eRecovery does not offer you b506, Im pretty sure HiSiute would not either
Unfortunately HiSuite doesn't offer an upgrade. The "System Update" is the only control I can find, and it says 504 is the latest official firmware. Seems odd that I have the latest firmware but can't install it.
Any ideas @zgfg , or anyone else?

Read my previous answer, with unlock bootloader, HWOTA method
But why bothering only because security patch
True, I might not bother. Appreciate your pointers, I'd have to go work out what the acronyms stand for and how to do it - all this kind of thing isn't very well documented, as the people who understand it describe it in a way that they understand, rather than for beginners. Better than nothing though

Use TWRP for P9 Nougat from the same thread, OP post #1 (not some others like from the official site, etc)
If you need more (unlocking Bootloader, flashing TWRP, please search on XDA)

I had a 9T. The fingerprint reader is so awful I sold the phone at loss and moved back to the P9.

Is there a Googlefier for EMUI 11

As per title, or do you have to downgrade to version 10.
Thank you.
The guy in the video below is doing it from EMUI11, but it is in Chinese or Japanese ......

Thanks for that, at least it's 'in the works' unless what he's doing in Chinese and at super fast speed is knocking it back to EMU 10 first?
Anybody speak Chinese
Extremely fast! Does anyone know English?

video has english subs , on which you probabnly can workout howto
I can confirm it works. Just installed GMS on my M40pro+ following the exact instructions in the video. Of course, the speed was set to 0.25, but it is very easy and intuitive.
I'm on Emui 11 and just tried to roll back using the tutorial. Unfortunately HiSuite_10.0.0.510_OVE doesn't seem to be compatible; Trying to connect the phone to hisuite will try to install hisuite.apk on my phone.
However, I get a message that this apk version is incompatible with the phone. Hisuite on my phone will not run as I can't grant location privileges.
Trying to install the latest hisuite.apk doesn't work either. I still get prompted to install the version that comes with the pc version of my hisuite.
Any solutions or alternative ways for me to get version ELS-LGRP4-OVS 10.1.0.131 on my phone?
Edit: I just installed the latest Hisuite versions, this gives me the option to rollback to Emui10 v176. I'll try further from there!
Edit2: I was able to roll back
Installed the older Hisuite version and was able to roll back to 131
googlefier went well too, now waiting for OTA updates
My phone updated automatically to m11 and my Google stuff still working.
Hello,
I am planning to install GMS on my P40 Pro. I am currently on EMUI 11.
The thing that worries me is the problem with notifications after GMS installation.
Which notifications I will not receive and is there any way to fix that?

Hello mate.
im in the same scenario, im trying to downgrade but i cant, i just installed latest hisuite version but it doesnt gives me the option to rollback ¿where do you find this option?
Thanks
Edit: found it!, just click on "system update"and theres the option to downgrade, on hisuite v.11.0.0.500 ove, thanks for the info bozdyg
Someone in Asia has found a definitive solution for installing gms, with all notification working, and device certified but well they're pricy enough, and looks like they won't share their method anytime soon. But based on evidence, I guess their method is using another microG like services, and then modify Google service apk

On my computer yes. But i can't get IT work with this video tutorial.
Evening all.
Bit confused on this thread as topic is getting gms on emui11 but half the people are talking about downgrading to 10 to then do it.. Is the vid of the Asian guy doing it def from emui11? I'm currently running 11.0.0.168 with no attempts yet at modifying anything to get gms and wanted to give this method a whirl. Anyone else have luck with it on 11.168?
Cheers yall

I also tried this video with the Chinese guy, I put English subs and lower the speed and here I come. but it didn't work.
I have Huawei P40 Pro (ELS-NX9), I also got stuck in the early stages. When I suppose to restore the old back up I also don't have "Restore from internal storage". I saw it's possible to restore with Hisuite when the phone is connected to the computer so I tried that but this particular restore file from the package you download but the hisuite can't find it, so it's either the IMUI version I have (11.0.0.151) or it's because I have P40 Pro... I was hoping to get it done without downgrade the phone, sadly I guess there is no choice...

In the same boat. I'm on a P40 Pro Plus ELS-N39 Firmware EMI 11.0.0.168(C636E2R1P3).
Willing to give it a try. What could go wrong right? It's got to be safer than the downgrade route. Wish there was a simpler solution or the ban on Google lifted so Huawei can resolve this properly and officially some how. I'm using Gspace which is fine for most things but having all the bells and whistles of google play etc. would be worth the attempt imo.
