[GUIDE] Downgrade + Bootloader Unlock - Huawei P Smart Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi there.
I decided to post a guide on how to downgrade and unlock the bootloader of "Huawei P Smart"
I've seen a lot of people now knowing how to downgrade, to a unlockable firmware.
Please note that "Bootloader unlocking" costs 4€ using this method!
I do not take responsibility for any phone that Is bricked or damaged In any way, by using this guide!
Required Stuff:
Huawei P Smart (any model)
Charging Cable
Windows PC
DC-Unlocker (easily found on google)
Firmware Finder Huawei (found on Play Store)
And of course 4€ If you are unlocking bootloader.
Downgrading
Here Is my current firmware:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
First of all we need Firmware Finder:
After that we open It and It should have a button with your phone model.
In my case I am using a FIG-LX1
On the list of firmware's I selected FIG-LX1C432B129 (8.0.0.129)
Now you should get to another menu and select the eRecovery option.
Then you should get this handy message with a DNS Address you need to enter In your Router.
In my case I found It under basic settings, and my default gateway was 192.168.0.1
After this Is done, disconnect, and reconnect to your WiFi on the phone.
Then press the "Open QUERY" button, on the same page as we got the DNS address.
Make sure the website looks like this.
Now press next, and you should get a "check availability" button
Should say this.
Press OK and press next.
Now press the "Register Update button.
Should come with a small popup saying that you registered It.
Now press next, and press OK on the second pop-up.
Now you need to power down your device.
Then you simply Insert the charger and immediately start holding volume up.
Release once you see this screen.
Press the "Download latest Version" button.
Then you should get into this screen.
Here you just need to press the "Download and Recovery"
It should connect to WiFi, and should start downloading like this.
Remember to check that It Is the 8.0.0.129(C432) Firmware!
After this Is done you should get into a bootloop.
This Is easily fixed by holding Power + Volume UP.
Now you should be In normal recovery.
Just press "Wipe Cache" and then "Factory Reset"
Now your phone will reset, and should boot into first time setup.
No need to set It up completely If you are going to unlock bootloader!
Here Is my Build Number after his procedure.
If your phone Is like mine, congratz on the Downgrade
Bootloader Unlock
Now for the bootloader unlocking.
As mentioned before you will need 4€ for this procedure!
First of all.
enable developer options. (press Build Number 7 times)
Then make sure USB Debugging, and OEM Unlock Is enabled!
Now we need to go to the dial pad, and enter In the number: *#*#2846579#*#*
It should get you to a menu like this one:
Once in that menu, go Into "Background Settings" and select "USB Port Settings"
In there select "Manufacture Mode"
Now plug In your USB, and open up, DC-Unlocker.
On the left Select "Huawei Phone", and press the Left button.
Then It should detect your phone like this:
Now you need to press the "Buy Credits" button, and go through their form.
Remember to buy 4 credits (he cost of bootloader code).
Even easier, you can get the DC-Unlocker app from the Play Store, and get credits through that.
They will send you a password for your account, once payment received.
Now press the "Server" Tab and login.
Then go to "Unlocking tab" and press "Read Bootloader Code"
It should give you your bootloader code.
Now comes the easy part!
Go Into the folder where you downloaded DC-Unlocker
In the address bar, type "CMD" (without the "") and press Enter.
You should get command prompt up like this.
Now you simply enter these commands.
adb devices. (make sure your phone Is listed)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices (make sure device Is listed)
fastboot oem unlock *KEY* (replace *KEY* with your bootloader code from DC-Unlocker.
now you should see a "Yes or No" screen on your phone.
Press Vol up/down move and Power to select.
Now your phone will reboot, and automatically reset Itself.
All data will be erased.
After this It should pop-up like this, and then boot Into Android.
If everything went according to plan.
You should be unlocked and ready to flash some Roms
I recommend flashing OpenKirin roms, since they are specific for this chipset!
Sorry for the VERY big pictures, and hope you could use this tutorial :fingers-crossed:

Is it okay to install firmware for the FIG-LX2ZAFC185 on my FIG-LX2C185? Firmware Finder can't find any software for my device. Edit: Yes it's okay, I had no problems!
Also, I can't put my phone into Manufacture mode; when I enter the dial code the dialer just resets :/ Edit: After downgrading Firmware it worked
Thanks so much for the guide man!

Nova 2

Sorry for late reply, currently working on some stuff
I don't have a Huawei Nova 2 so I am not the best to ask
This guide with bootloader unlock is intended for Huawei P Smart.
That being said try: reinstalling the app, and select the earliest firmware for the phone

When i tried downgrade not working. Is there any new solution?

FIG-LA1
I can't downgrade at Erecovery it says get download information failed.

use only full OTA stock update you downloaded from internet on pc using chrome but download from creators of firmware finder team MT... then global search in XDA for hurupdater.. follow instructions to apply stock rom sd card.. doesnt matter if it's a downgrade it will flash

But if i use hurupdater, do i need bootloader unlocked.
So now my bootloader is locked and can i use hurupdater?

I paid a guy who did it all for me downgrade and bootloader £9, if you can downgrade yourself it's only 5£ for bootloader unlock. I've been around a while but I class myself as a noob. The website is called MOS ministry of solutions. However now I've been there done unlock, root, twrp which was only last week I'd say it's a waste of time, unless you really know what your doing but even then these guys in here have gone full circle back to stock. I've gone full circle not just to stock, removed root and back to stock recovery. Only thing I took from root was I managed to make the speaker louder as one of my motivations for root was viper which don't work on Huawei or specifically psmart for sure. So sorry to say this but at this stage there isn't much development for psmart which is because Huawei have made it difficult. I'd advise against mods of any kind at this stage. I was rooted less than a week and multiple resets, soft bricks and not much success with magisk modules that count like viper.

i used erecovery method also, i think my version block all methods using firmware finder. my version FIG-LX1 8.0.0.163(C432). Any one have success downgrade with this version?

Finally, yesterday i bought new sd card 16gb and dowload a firmware which is old one from androidhost ru. And downgrade is completed. I bought bootloader unlock code reader from google play store dc unlocker and happy ending

with this method your firmware will be changed like 8.0.0.046.
when your bootloader unlocked succesfully.
VolUp + Power and use Erecovery to dowmload correct version

This is true, unless you plan to install a custom ROM like Open Kirin, then there is no point

*SOLVED*
For anybody struggling to unlock the Bootloader site, I finally managed to get it working.
Using incognito mode in chrome I went to the emui homepage, & translated with Google.
Then selected my phone Honor 6plus PE-TL10.
On the download page there is a link for unlocking. This took me to the homepage & I selected "log in with Facebook" It asked me to create a nickname, then took me back to the unlock page.
Here I was able to select smartphone in the first drop down box. The second box kept coming up empty & took a while for the page to load the list of phones.
However I was able to choose the correct model without trying to edit the page info.
I used IMEI from sim #1 was instantly given the code in red text at the bottom of the page.
Just be patient when using teanslate as the page may still be loading. Also don't expect a new page or window to open up with the code. Mine just appeard at the bottom & you could easily miss it.
Remember :-
*email login doesn't work
*phone number login doesn't work (Chinese numbers only)
*use incognito mode or clear cache/history/cookies
*use Facebook to log register a new account
*go to the site via the homepage not the link
*be patient using translate (page loads slow)
*profit ��

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am not able to generate my bootloader unlock code for my Honor 6. Please send me the unlock code for my device:
Model: H60-L/02/12/04
SN: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
IMEI: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Product ID: XXXXXXXX
Thanks for your assistance
Kind Regards

(use google chrome to translate):
http://www.emui.com/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail
Choose your model from the drop down list.
Fill in the rest of the fields:
To get your Product SN: Settings> About phone> Status > here you can find the serial number.
To get your IMEI: On your dialpad enter: *#06#
(These two you can also get on the box your phone came in)
To get your Product ID: On your dialpad enter: *#*#1357946#*#*
Now enter the security code and click submit.
Your unlock code will be at the bottom in red. Copy it, write it down or save it.
STEP 2:
Download, unzip and open the Honor 6 Multi Tool folder.
Extract the file SuperSU.zip from the 'Tools' folder and put it on your phone's SD Card.
Make sure you have the phone drivers installed on your computer (if you have connected thru USB before, or installed the HiSuite, you should be fine)
STEP 3:
On your phone, enable developer mode. (Go to Setting>About Phone>Click on Build Number 8 times.) Then go to settings>Developer Options and enable USB Debugging.
STEP 4:
Power off your phone and now press Volume Down and connect USB to computer (while pressing volume down) to enter Fastboot mode:

}
STEP 5:
On your computer, run the Multi-Tool.
Choose 1 - Unlock Bootloader. Enter the code you got in step 1 and hit enter. Your device will now be unlocked.
If it says 'waiting for device' then disconnect and reconnect in fastboot mode - volume down then connect USB - the multi-tool should now complete its process.
Now go to Step two in the Multi Tool. - Install CWM. (option 1). This will take a few minutes.
Now restart phone - you can boot into CWM by pressing Volume Up+ Power and choose to save a backup of your phone system and data before it is rooted. Might come in handy later. This will take some time.
Reboot into fastboot and this time choose root (option 3) on the multi tool.
If your phone is stuck in fastboot at any time don't panic! Press Volume up + Volume Down + Power all at the same time and your phone will reboot.
STEP 6:
You can now boot into CWM on your phone (Volume Up+Power) and go to 'Install Zip from SD Card' option and choose the SuperSU.zip from your SD card and install it. Select reboot. The phone may ask "Root may be lost! Restore root Now?" Select 'No'.
Restart the phone and if you have the SuperSU app on your homescreen you are now rooted. Go to playstore and update SuperSU (if required)
Aaaaaand you're done!!!

Yes it should, process is same. Just be careful when writing your model number in the unlock bootloader step, and when restoring stock recovery from multi-tool.
Thanks itsnotmeatall , well done, hopfully it works for H60-l02, and please, if any one tested it in H60-l02 tell us the results.

Dear Brothers,
I am getting some problem in unlocking the boot-loader. Though I will like to be specific that I am not new to all these things but honestly speaking it seems tough to the purpose. I have purchased the device Honor 6 (H60-L04) on 31st Jan 2015 from FlipKart.com, India.
Problem:- Getting Incorrect Product ID on Huawei Website.
Screenshot:-
Now I did all the procedure, very carefully but then the error in red is coming. So requesting you all to help me out in this.
Image has been added for the reference of the error.
Thanks & Regards

Very Unfortunate to say that nothing is working for me as well. Tried with different browsers, cleared history, cache, cookies but nothing. On Chinese site its saying IMEI & S/N not matching while its matching with the one on box and in about phone. Written 2 mails yet to Huawei but no reply yet from last 2 days.
Don't know what to expect now.
BTW Thank You very much for your reply and help brother. Grateful to you.

Had the same problem with IE, Firefox and Chrome but I was able to solve it. Do all the steps mentioned in the first post ( I tried the english site), but in the dropdown list, after changing it to H60-L04, select a different model and then select H60-L04 again. Then I entered IMEI SV instead of IMEI, clicked "submit", got an error message, then entered correct IMEI and I got my unlock code.

We get our Unlock Code for Booloader, write it somewhere !
Now we must activate the OEM Unlock option on your phone, go under Settings/Developer Options and tick the "Enable OEM unlock" option. In the same menu check if USB Debbuging mode is enabled, if not do it !
Connect your phone to your computer !
Then unzip the SRKTool Huawei somewhere and launch the application ( srktoolHuawei )

Write your Bootloader Code and press Enter (again !)
Would you like to continue ? Of course !
Here we go ! If you carefully followed the instructions your Bootloader is unlocked ! (Mine says Failed because it's already Unlocked ! )
2. Install TWRP !
Okay now i'll tell you how i installed TWRP in the P9 Lite ! Like i said at the start of the tutorial, i provided SRKTool Huawei with the right recovery not the one given with the utility, ( For the scecptical, i used a TWRP version for the HUAWEI G9 Youth (Chinese version of the P9 Lite))
So connect your phone to your computer and start SRKTool Huawei, Press Enter until you got the main Menu !
Select the Option 3 Install Recovery !
We got the Huawei P9, so choose it !
We want to install TWRP, Option 2 and press Enter !
Are you sure ? I guess we do ! So Y

Wait a bit, and voila ! TWRP should be installed !
Press Enter and your Phone will reboot in system mode !
Now to reboot your phone in Recovery Mode, turn it off and start it by pressing Volume Key Up + Power ! This TWRP version is in Chinese but you can change the language in TWRP Itself !
2.1 Change the TWRP Language !
Now you're in TWRP in Chinese, we better want the English version !
1.

3.Install SuperSU
Boot your phone in normal mode and plug it to your computer, download the SuperSU STABLE zip from HERE (don't extract it)
Now put the zip file on your sdcard, unplug your phone, turn it off and reboot into Recovery Mode ( Volume Up key + Power )
Click Install
Select your SDCARD if it's not selected by default ! Select Storage -> MicroSD Card -> OK
Then choose the ZIP file you've put in your SD Card ! And Swipe to install it ! Reboot aaaaand
Voila ! Your Huawei P9 Lite is finally Rooted with Custom Recovery and Unlocked Bootloader ! Enjoy it !
( Warning ! You'll maybe get a message when you boot your phone, saying you that it is not trusted and insecure anymore, thanks google, don't worry it's just because it's unlocked and rooted ! )

Sorry for being rude friend. I came accross many fake root methods for this phone and I got very frustrated and started thinking of selling this phone. You just made my day. Thank you
Waiting for TWRP step.

This is bulls...t. The problem for rooting this device is finding a working twrp recovery file. You did not provide the certain file cause it doesn' exist yet. Bootloader unlock and a flashable SU file has already been established.

Thank you very much. This works as advertised. I'm sorry for being an asshole ?
I used DC unlocker for obtaining the unlock code, cause I didn't want huawei to give excuses if I need my warranty. It cost me 4 euros but I think I think it's worth it for safely relocking the phone.
No worries ! I'm glad my tutorial helped you !
Has anybody tried out any custom ROM so far?
Sent from my HUAWEI VNS-L31 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Thank you! I successfully installed TWRP and rooted my vns-l31.
Btw the TWRP built in Rooting feature works too. Is there a reason you recommend downloading a separate zip for root?
Hi!
Will it work on vns-l21?

Hallo , waiting to receive my microsd card to try it ^^.
Question :For warranty , can the bootloader be re-locked if needed later on ?
Warranty of huawei its a bit unclear .Here-- locally--- they say "it's voided" .
But in the site they say its' voided IF malfunction is CAUSED BY Rooting.

Question Update OnePlus 10 Pro from HydrogenOS (CN) to OxygenOS (EU/GL/IN) without rooting

This process uses Oxygen Updater as I haven't found the full EU/GL/IN stock ROMs anywhere else.
Update OnePlus 10 Pro NE2210 (CN) from HydrogenOS (NE2210_11_A.12) to OxygenOS EU (NE2213_11_A.12)
Download [Play Store] apk and install
[Play Store] install [Oxygen Updater]
[Oxygen Updater] Device: One Plus 10 Pro EU
[Oxygen Updater] Update method: Stable (full)
[Oxygen Updater] Settings > Advanced Mode - activate
[Oxygen Updater] Update > Download the full stock ROM (4.15 GB)
Activate Developer Options
Update > Local install
CURRENT STATUS: Verification failed
I've done this process before for other OnePlus phones and it was very straightforward. For some reason is not working with this OnePlus 10 Pro. Any insight on how to continue?
Thanks!
Bump, redownloaded again the EU version, resetted phone, still fails. Whyyy! Anyone can advise how to go from Hydrogen to Oxygen? Thanks!
Short description for "How to switch from ColorOS (Chinese version) to OxygenOS (IND/EU) on OnePlus 10 Pro". I did the flash under Windows 10, even if I'm usually a Linux guy...
BEFORE DOING THIS MANUAL, MAKE A BACKUP OF THE DATA OF YOUR DEVICE! Your phone will be DELETED completely!
1.)
- Download the desired ROM (Oxygen OS 12.1 A11 (IND) or Oxygen OS 12.1 A12 (EU) (Auntie Google has the answer, effective April 2022) -> extract
- download OnePlus_USB_driver.zip:
https://oneplususbdrivers.com/download-oneplus-usb-driver/ -> extract
- download Android Platform SDK:
https://www.techspot.com/downloads/downloadnow/5425/?evp=de0a68064118855fcddcc3980a2143c4&file=6062 -> extract
- download "Fastboot Enhance Tool": https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...enhance-payload-dumper-image-flasher.4310553/ -> extract
2.) First of all, disable driver signature check for Windows 10, because the OnePlus drivers are not signed (yet).
3.) After restarting Windows, install the OnePlus drivers by executing the .exe file from the extracted folder.
4.) Copy the payload.bin file from the downloaded ROM into the folder where the fastbootenhance tool is located
5.) Enable Developer Options on your phone
6.) Enter the Developer Options, enable OEM unlock and USB debugging there
7.) Now connect your OnePlus 10 Pro to your computer by a USB cable. Make sure it's started, screen unlocked and charged over 60%
8.) On your computer, open File Explorer and switch to the Android SDK folder. Click in the address line above and type CMD [Enter]. A CMD window opens in the SDK folder.
9.) In CMD, type "adb devices". A new line should appear with the encrypted name of your device. When an empty line is returned, check the driver installation. If this line returns the name, but the suffix "not allowed", you must first allow this connection ON YOUR PHONE. Disconnect and reconnect your device and confirm the popup that appears on your phone! (Best is to enable "Always allow connections from this computer"!)
10.) Now type "adb reboot bootloader" in CMD. Your telephone restarts automatically to bootloader mode. In this mode your phone should tshow you it's name and beside of some other information you don't need, that the bootloader is LOCKED.
11.) Type in CMD "adb flashing unlock [Enter]". Now your phone should restart and ask you, if you want to unlock the bootloader or do not unlock the bootloader. With the volume buttons, switch to "UNLOCK BOOTLOADER" and confirm by pressing the Power Button.
12.) After doing so, restart your phone. After rebooting, go back to CMD and type "adb reboot fastboot". Your phone now should restart to "FASTBOOTD MODE". You are asked to choose a language (I recommend english after all... ;-) )
13.) Open the "Device Manager" on your computer.
14.) If device manager shows you some unknown device like "Android: ! 'ossi'" or similar, your device is not recognized in fastbootd mode. In that case continue with pt. 15. Otherwise continue with pt. 19
15.) Right-click on the unknown Android device and choose "Update driver..." -> "Search my computer for drivers" -> "Pick from a list of available drivers on my computer"
16.) When OnePlus drivers where installed correctly some steps above, Device Manager should suggest you 3 different possible drivers. Choose "OnePlus ADB Interface Manager" and confirm your choice. Windows will warn you that a wrong choice will crash Windows. Confirm also this warning.
17.) If everything went good, the before unknown device will change to an Android ADB Interface Device. When that happend, everything is good and you're good to go on.
18.) Just to be really sure: Type in CMD again "fastboot devices" and your computer should tell you the s/n of your phone with the suffix "fastboot". This will tell you your device is recognized in fastboot mode.
19.) Start "FASTBOOTENHANCE" tool from the respective folder (Folder name "release")
20.) Now you can follow the instructiions here at pt. 8.:
How to Install Indian ROM on Chinese OnePlus 10 Pro
In this comprehensive tutorial, we will show you the detailed steps to install the Indian ROM on the Chinese OnePlus 10 Pro.
www.droidwin.com
Puuuuuuh! That was enoying..! Maybe I have missed something... If so, please tell me by PN and I will complement this manual. But at this time, I guess it should work. I did it right like that this day - and it works fine! Finally I have my foremost chinese OP10Pro with a EU ROM in (swiss) german!
And if it works just like that (after my manual), please let me know as well!
Have fun! Oliver
Oh, there's something I forgot: I had after flashing still about a dozen of chinese apps I had to delete manually. Don't be surprised by that!
Thank you! Can you relock the bootloader afterwards? What model shows in the phone info screen?
This worked for me! Thanks very much.
After installing EU firmware, I factory reset the phone but Google Pay wont work saying the phone is rooted but when I launch Root Checker, it says ' Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device'
Is the root broken? Do I need to root again? Any ideas how to fix?

No they did not. After the first flash, the OP Launcher was back (previously it was Google Phone Launcher) . I factory reset and Chinese apps were back.

Hi Ultimatum99
I didn't relock my bootloader yet, but I'll do it in the next days, I'll post the update here. (Speaking technically it's possible, yes, but I don't know yet what happens...) And my model shows "NE2213" after the update.

Hi Lynxy0
No, your phone is not rooted, but the bootloader is still unlocked, even after the update. And that means your phone is vulnerable to attacks from outside. So Google Pay tells you your phone is rooted, just to keep you safe. Try to relock your bootloader, this should solve the problem. (I didn't do it yet, but I'll post the update when I've done it.)

This is unfortunately a bad thing... Some chinese apps are really back, even after flashing and resetting the device. But I could delete them manually. Yeah, it took me a few minutes, but at least, I had (finally) my beloved OxygenOS back! (After I crashed my OP6T almost 2 years ago, I chose a Oppo FindX 2 Pro - and after almost 2 years I still regret to have paid for this phone... The hardware was really cool, but ColorOS is ... So I was really terrified when I learned my brand new [chinese] OP10Pro had ColorOS installed by default..!)

It was pretty straight forward, unroot by uninstalling Magisk. adb into the bootloader and send the adb bootloader lock command, then boom, its locked. It wipes your phone in doing so, so you will have to everything again.

Thanks @Lynxy0
So, just to clarify, after relocking the bootloader (which causes a full wipe) Google Pay works again?
Also, do you know if Netflix installs after relocking the bootloader? (Because in most phones once the bootloader is unlocked the status changes from "L1" and doesn't change back again after locking. Netflix reads that status, and Netflix will only install if it is L1.)
Many thanks
Hi Guys
It seems like a straight forward process, It was all good until I try flash it. . When I loaded the downloaded zip file, I couldn't get the payload file in fastbootd and flash it those buttons are missing(after I load it to payloadDumper .) . I thought it might be file download has some issue. I tried different ones , the same thing.
any ideas?

Question Cannot register a new fingerprint in OnePlus 10 PRO

Hi
I bought a new OnePlus 10 PRO from Aliexpress. Its a CH version that the seller installed on it a global rom.
In the first setup of the phone, When I get to setting the fingerprint, I am unable to set it. I get the following:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I tried updating the phone, I tried factory reset... its always the same.
Any idea?
Thanks !
Are you sure that he installed the global rom? With model is yours NE2213 ? I bought from them also but I don't have this issue.
Anyway, you can try to use Oxygen Updater, to check if there is an update for your device or since your device is reseted, you can install ColorOS back
Hi,
I am on NE2215. Using Oxygen Updater I see that I have the most up to date version.
Not sure exactly how to install ColorOS.. I do want to have the regular OS that I would have as if I bought the global version (which i guess this is what the global rom mean..)
Right, I agree with you. I recommended to install the coloros just to check if it's a compability issue.
You can try to reinstall you version and see what happens, just download it and flash it again.
ok, and now for someone that have no idea how to do it?
If yours is NE2215 A13 you can download the ota file from this link: https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/package/7548d30abac02bde85a403bcc3a218df868e1910.zip
Then put it in your phone root and from your device Settings -> About the device -> Click on the option to check for the update -> 3 dots menu -> local installation and chose this package. It will start the installation.
Thank you for your help !
Downloaded and copied into my device files.
However - When I go to "About device" and click on the "up to date" button to search for updates, it just tells me I have no updates and i see no 3 dots to go for local installation:
What am I missing?
I think it's obvious that something went wrong during the region change, this issue was prevalent on the 8 pro and was extremely difficult to fix.
Check out the 8 pro threads you'll be sure to see it. It's a partition iirc and if it's borked then it simply will not work..
I can't remember the name of it off hand but have a look and I'm sure you can get an idea of what may be wrong, specifically that partition.
Overall it's difficult to say as you've got a region changed phone, have you asked the seller what they did? If it is indeed as difficult as it was on the 8 pro to fix and seeing as you may be the only person experiencing this (far as I know) then I'd consider returning it.
You could re-flash the entire OS via fastboot enhance but that would also bring with it inherent problem's, if it's new then I guess the question you need to ask yourself is it worth it?
Did you save much money getting that converted variant?

This page is from android play services. You need to click on the first banner
@dladz TBH I bought it for around 70% of the price I would pay locally.. So yea, it was much cheaper. I also had before OP9 global rom and had no issues with it.
Maybe indeed as last step its worth trying to reinstall everything again.. I'm just not sure how to do it. I cannot find the local upgrade option as advised above, and after googling a bit how to do it using ADB, when i try to run fastboot oem unlock - the CMD will just show me forever "< waiting for any device >" (and this is although I was able to communicate with my device using "adb devices" and I got back my device id.
@zopostyle I did click on that banner you're showing and I got to the page I showed you before..
I'm clueless
If that is the page showing I'm assuming you're on a gsi ROM and not oxygen os.
Now it's better to reinstall OxygenOS completely because it doesn't seem to be the ROM you're running.
Search here on xda to unlock your bootloader and then you need to find the zip with the full ROM for you device and install it from fastboot as mentioned.
OK, i'm trying to unlock my bootloader but as I mentioned:

I feel you buddy.
You can use the app in my Magisk guide to do local installs.
Unlocking the bootloader you need to type fastboot flashing unlock
I haven't had to change region myself, but I did make a thread for someone else where the process was listed, think I called it changing Chinese firmware iirc.
If it's just a case of a re-flash of the firmware you're on, it's not that difficult.
Just use oxygen updater and grab the full firmware then do the local update using the app I mentioned above (listed in my Magisk/root guide)
I've never done this when not having the bootloader unlocked personally, but you can unlock and that'll wipe your phone with the recovery already on your device.
Only issue I have going down these routes is what else is missing? Do any of these processes stand up if we can't rely on the integrity of the OS that someone has put on and made a balls of it?
Sorry I know you may not agree but 30% is a small price to pay to avoid a brick and bring stability..
But that's me

Hi guys, thank you again for helping me.
I tried installing again the uSB drivers, and ran again "fastboot flashing unlock" - it still telling me:
As far as I understand I have to unlock it for next step, right? (either for resetting back to colorOS or reinstalling oxygen)
I will try later tonight the other method (this magisk thing) - is this the link you're talking about?
Can you please also give me a link to download the full most up to date global Oxygen version and the CH Color one? i'll try both
Thanks !
For OxygenOS there is no A13 full yet...so you have to download A12 from this link: https://gauss-componentotacostmanua...22/03/24/a9f9e7ec682744c2ba606a366df587ac.zip

Really is odd about them not being full... They're massive compared to conventional incremental updates. 4.05GB that's a hell of an incremental.
Haven't had to do it myself and it's sightly off topic but is the full version you'd use to recover a phone albeit without a functional MSM?
So fastboot flashing?
Cheers
Hi again,
So, i'm trying to follow the tutorial here. I got stuck already in the first step - I cannot extract the boot file using Fastboot Enhance:
This is although in this link I have downloaded a full version (EU version (NE2213_11.A.13)).
What should I do next please?

As @zopostyle said earlier.. you'd need to use 12 mate. As that's the only full version available...13 won't cut it...you can extract the images using the button that says allow incremental, that's useful for extracting boot images for rooting.
But there's a reason why that's there, it's so you don't go ahead and flash it.... According to @zopostyle 12 is the only full version so that's what you would need.
Again I've not done this myself so perhaps wait for someone else to chime in what to do next.

What is the best way to unlock the bootloader?

Hi there,
I recently found my Honor 9 lite LLD-L31.
I want to be able to remove some software and also have the ability to install a custom rom.
After searching, I found several bootloader unlock solutions, however, I don't know which ones are reliable.
If possible, I would like to do it easily and for free.
Here are the different solutions found:
- HCU customer (link) -> 19€
- ministry of solutions (link) -> 15€
- Potato NV (link)
- Kingo Root
- Towelroot
What method do you recommend?
Finally I noticed the FRP lock, is it a bootloader unlock issue?
Thank's

1. HCU-client (4euros) - but you have to downgrade to EMUI 8 via HiSuite and then downgrade to the build number with google patches april - june 2018 via dload method
2. PotatoNV
- King Root and Kingo Root doesn't work on android 7 and above
- Napkin Root - ???

Okay, download service ROM
Link
Unpack, find dload folder in "Software" folder. copy the dload folder (without unpacking it !) to the root directory of the SD card. Turn off the phone, press and hold Power and both Volume buttons .
With .132 you should be able to use hcu-client.

I will use update with *#*#2846579#*#*, it's OK ?
Thank's your help.
I test that

Hello,
I did not understand this sentence, but I still tried to move forward
1) I successfully downgraded with the SDCard Upgrade option.
However, the update bugged and it was repaired in version: 8.0.0.046 (0CAS).
Does this version allow the use of the hcu-client?
2) I still tested to use hcu-client with their tutorial (Link).
I connected the phone via USB, was in *#*#2846579#*#* mode to put the phone in "manufacture Mode" (1. Background Setting, then 2. USB Port Setting)
Here, I manage to connect, however from step 4, I am constantly asked to connect and gives me an error:
(I have the same thing when restarting in production mode)
I tried to connect to find the phone in "manufacture mode" instead of "Fastboot/Xloader"
And there, I have no error and the information is displayed:
Here, I am restarting with hold Power and both Volume buttons.
In the latter case, I'm not sure what to do to unlock the bootloader.
Do you have an idea?
[EDIT]: I find this link for reading bootloader (LINK). This is the better link for unlocking the bootloader?

Select "Unlock" and then press "Read Bootloader code".
Maybe you get an Error because of the wrong build number.
Btw, everything can be found in tutorial. With photos

I read all this post. and, I read this post too (link) and I think use the tutrial on this video (link).
In this tutorial, the phone is with EMUI9. Can i keep my bootloader number and use it with this video indication?
Or it's limited to specific version of EMUI 9 ?
Hi,
I managed to use the commands:
./adb devices
./adb reboot-bootloader
./fastboot oem unlock 4453XXXXXXXXXX
My phone is unlocked,
But I can't use this command:
./fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk "TWRP-9.1.img"
this command returns me: < waiting for any device >
Do you know what the reason is?
[EDIT]
After reboot-Bootloader, I have :
Code:
C:\Users\xe09\Documents\Partage OS\Honor 9 lite LLD-L31\Honor9LiteEMUI9.1TWRP_ROOT>fastboot devices
WYUNW18802002971 fastboot
C:\Users\xe09\Documents\Partage OS\Honor 9 lite LLD-L31\Honor9LiteEMUI9.1TWRP_ROOT> fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk TWRP9.1.img
error: cannot load 'TWRP9.1.img'
[EDIT 2]
I found the error, it's a name error. x)
Code:
C:\Users\xe09\Documents\Partage OS\Honor 9 lite LLD-L31\Honor9LiteEMUI9.1TWRP_ROOT> fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk TWRP-9.1.img
