I'd suggest HurUpdater: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho...h-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279/page111
OTAs do work with an unlocked bootloader, but not with root or custom kernels.

Does this works with the P10? In the post i ddin´t found the P10.
And if it works, wich zip file i have to choose? And i have root
Thanks

Try my guide (Tutorial #2, Oreo to Oreo)
After that do a factory reset with eRecovery (boot with Vol+ and connected USB).
What also should work is flashing the system.img manually via fastboot.
For this extract the system.img from the correct firmware version with Huawei Update Extractor.
Connect your phone to your PC, boot into fastboot and flash with "fastboot flash system PATH\TO\SYSTEM.IMG".
After that do a factory reset with eRecovery (boot with Vol+ and connected USB).
Note for the next time: backup your system partition via TWRP before flashing the custom rom.
Also note that a factory reset is needed, without your phone won't boot, so backup your personal data before doing it.

Yes, it works on the P10. You can download the files with the firmware finder app. I'd recommend the newest oreo version for your customisation (e.g. B382 for C432).
But Jannomag's solution should work equally well.

Wich Jannomag´s thread?
Do you have the link, please?
Thanks

The fourth message in this thread

I am sorry, maybe i am just dumb but i can't find it

I followed the guide but know i am i an bootloop. I get the message "your device has failed verification and may not work properly"

It restarded, but as D188-L29!!! I download the VTR-L29 on https://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VTR-L29C432&firmware_page=0
Now i can't update or nothing

Possibly you renamed the wrong customisation file (i did it once for the 09 while I needed the 29).

Which one did you download? And did you flash manually or did you use my script?
Download my oeminfo, it's from VTR-L29C432 Version 8.0.0.380, while the version doesn't really matter.
Flash it via TWRP using "Install" and "Use Image". Flash it to oeminfo partition. Then do my update script again.

I followed the guide to do Oreo to Oreo - basically wanting to get from custom Rom (fRomFuture B370) back to stock, so I chose the same firmware version to extract. Flashed everything with the script and it went fine and it boots and works.. but
The resolution seems to be off, too low and the right side of the screen is unresponsive to touch (about 1cm )
EDIT- Rolled back to fRomFuture B370 for now - need to find a way to get back to stock, as want to move on to Openkirin ROM instead

HI, i have a vtr-l29 root, i want to unroot(version oreo), how do i do it? what do i need to flash?. thank you Alex

Need help to downgrade from Nougat to Stock Rom

Hi all, i've been trying to fix this for 2 days and still failed to get it working.
I regret that i quickly jump into the nougat build and would like to get back to stock rom for now.
I tried downloading all the ROMs at stock rom thread and keep on encountering error when update reached 51% with software package/update failed error message.
I'm using P9-L19 and hopefully can revert back to C636 roms.
Thanks.:crying:
have you try this?

As someone new to this, this seems kinda complicated.
I'll give it a try. Just have to follow the instruction in the video?
Download the stock rom to external memory card in dload folder and use this code in phone dialer
*#*#2846579#*#*
And select update system
Flash update in dload don't work
Please help
Is your bootloader unlocked? Do you have a twrp backup?
I don't know if that's a good idea, but you could wipe system partition in twrp then flash stock recovery and try stock rom again? Going by the assumption that your current system is causing the update to fail.
Maybe nougat beta has a new recovery that won't flash old firmware? So maybe try an old recovery?
I'm just brainstorming though, no idea if any of this works. So try at your own risk.

Hello, my P9 is 100% origin.
I managed to use an OTG cable and put the firmware (update.app) on a flash drive under the dload folder. then powered the phone off and pressed both the volume keys + power and the flashing started
you need to download full stock rom the same version as you have before upgrade to N. then try to flash via project menu (*#*#2846579#*#*)
if this method doesn't work you may need to goto recovery menu and wipe data/factory reset. then you might lost all your theme and system apps.
but you will be back to to stable stock rom. if you need to use theme and need the stock system app again to have to Root your device. and install data/hw_init via SRKTool
Hope this help.

After wipe data you need to dload stock rom again though
What is your build number before goto 7.0?

First unlock your bootloader - then use Huawei Update extractor to extract ( I suggest the C636B168 Rom) from the Update.App the recovery.img - after flash from an adb folder the recovery.img through fastboot - use the three button to install the Rom and you're ready.
Warning.. everything in your internal storage will be erased so make a backup first.

Guide to install Nougat / Emui5 on BTV-DL09

Okay, managed to get Nougat and root for my BTV-DL09. Here is a fast forward tutorial how to do that.
I could only root it by using Magisk, Supersu (even the special emui5 ones) did not work for me.
Files:
ROM: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1224/g490/v78425/f1/full/update.zip (BTV-DL09C233B336)
Data: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...full/dualcu/cn/update_data_full_dualcu_cn.zip
TWRP, make sure to use twrp_BTV-DL09_5_greatslon.img : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634750327 (thanks to greatslon)
Root: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
I came from version BTV-DL09C100B006, this is how I did it:
Bootloader must be unlocked, custom recovery installed (Do not install the one for EMUI5 yet, it won't boot).
Enter recovery by adb reboot recovery
Wipe, reboot recovery
Flash ROM + Data
Flash Magisk Root
Flash Recovery again (will be overwritten by the udate)
Reboot, Done.
Download playstore / vending APK from APKmirror: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-store/google-play-store-7-6-08-release/ and transfer it on the device.
There is an app called "Downloads" preinstalled (there is pretty much nothing on the tablet, not even a browser after flashing it), you can use that to open/install the play store APK and get things going.
Please make sure you know what you are doing and you know how to recover from a soft brick. I take no responsibility if anything goes wrong.
The version you should have now is BTV-DL09C233B336 with security update from February included.
Thank you very much, and how to downgrade ?
can someone upload a youtube video showing us the the new EMUI5 on this tablet, and give us an overview about the new features and performance?
Beware that:
1) this is a chinese ROM
2) Nougat version 7.0.0
3) if you don't like the downgrade process is difficult
4) if you want to downgrade have to find another ROM!!!
any idea to downgrade please

You need another ROM, FULL not OTA.
1) extract from the .APP the recovery (both) and boot images
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
2) get a build.prop from the ROM you want to install
3) copy the build.prop in the /system folder, overwriting the original: now the old ROM will unlikely boot!
4) go in fastboot mode and flash recovery, recovery2 and boot images
5) copy the update.app in the dload folder
6) reboot and maintain pressed both volume keys to start recovery
7) if you are lucky the recovery will install the ROM.
Of course you will loose all your data (uhm, not even but... MAKE A BACKUP before!)
If you don't know well how to do ALL this don't even try!
If you have the original european LTE ROM please share it!!!

installing Magisk first time gave me a fail message but second time it works like a charm. thanks
could you help, thanks
Switched to eu rom, updated to nougat.. unlocked bootloader and rooted with magisk
But using magisk caused the fingerprint sensor not to work at all and there is no settings for the FP in the settings menu.
Uninstalled magisk and the fingerprint worked again but obviously I lost root.
Flashing SuperSU didn't work gives an error in twrp no matter what version I try.
Any idea on how to root without compromising the fingerprint sensor?? :/

[TIPS] Revert Custom Rom to Official and untouched - Hard restore

Hi!
I see the large number of requests concerning the roolback of a custom rom to a official and untouched EMUI 4, i decide to create this thread.
After follow that methode, you able to rest on official EMUI and get the new update automatically on OTA (directly on your phone) OR try to install custom rom with a clear and good base version.
1. You ave access on TWRP?
-If not, pleas unlock your bootloader (again) and flash TWRP recovery for you actual version (marshmallow or nougat).
-perform a full wipe and restore your partitions on "ext4" format, shutdown phone.
2. Get a "oem_info.zip" for your model phone (dont extract the .zip) and push it on your internal or external sd.
-This archive contain cust and oem info for patched your phone at the correct manufacture information.
-I have a link for VNS-L31 (c432, but is not very important) HERE LINK
-If you have other model (VNS-L31) pleas find a correct patch for you (VNS-L21, ...).
3. Find and download a EMUI marshmallow official full-ota update.
-for a VNS-L31 i advice choice a VNS-L31C432B160 full-ota update.
4. Unpack your update archive.
5. Create "dload" folder on your internal or external sd and put it UPDATE.APP
6. Reboot phone on TWRP recovery and flash "oem_info.zip"
7. Use dload methode for update (hold 3 buttons phone and dont release before "dload screen" appears)
8. Unlock your bootloader again (important!) And make a factory reset
9. Your phone reboot (please wait ) and done!
Ok now you are on official version, please update on setting menu >> update and choice, rest on official or flash a custom rom..
P9 lite brick precision:
In my personal experience the "p9 lite" is very easy to flash, mod or other tips and the risk of HARD brick is very very tiny.
If you see this page and your phone bootloop, relax, keep calm at 99,999% you have a little and ridiculous brick
Good luck and flash happy!

Thank for helping, really appreciate
To answer your question in the other thread, yes bootloader is unlocked and I am on C432.
What's your rom have before the bootloop?
You have the right version of TWRP for your rom?
If you have a MM version Don't flash a TWRP for N.
Send me a link to TWRP version used (thread forum)

Before the bootloop I was on L31C900 (on the phone) but I did actually flashed C432B160 because I did rollback. TWRP used I've found in the other post where there's a OEMfile to flash (but for this I need to double check because I did look so many pages which I am not 100% sure.
I not have experience on other model that C435.
But i suggest to find a oeminfo for your variant (C900?)
For TWRP you need flash a version for MarshMallow HERE
Flash it and pas return here (fastboot flash return and first enter to new recovery)
Hi, found Windows emulator for MacOs so I extract from update.app boot.img and flash.

Flash partitions on .img files is not needed.
Just find a corect oeminfo for your model phone.
Flash it on TWRP recovery.
Use dload methode to update on basical version (MarshMallow b160).
After that, unlock bootloader again and make a factory reset.
Switch on your phone (the first boot make long time).
Update on last emui on OTA.
Done!
After that you able to install a custom rom.

IT won't turn off so been always on it won't keep the charge... Writing so because apparently it won't go to download mode (dload) if plugged in. On the other way if I unplugged from power it won't even start. Shall I force to download mode using console ADB or FASTBOOT? I had looked but can't find anything...

Correct. Because I'm not able to switch it off it won't keep the charge. When discharged, the minute I do plug on charge it wakes up... That's the loop...
My main question is: does a command exist to enter download mode using terminal?

bricked device with oreo, old unbrick doesnt work

hi guys,
yesterday i installed the oreo beta on my VTR-L29 but then i brickedd it *cry*. unfortunateley the unbrick methods found here in the forum don't work because the oreo update made some changes in the system file structure...
has anyone an idea what to do?
maybe someone can provide me a recovery image for twrp? (one for oreo, otherwise it wont work) so i can give this a try...
after over 10 hours of fiddeling around a found a really easy solution:
most of you know HWOTA helps with this, but the "normal" version wont work after flashing oreo. but this version is flashed via twrp and is still working!
but you will need a oreo compatible twrp, which you can find here
i know the links are to mate 9 software, but since the p10 and mate 9 are nearly identical, it works on the p10 as well
can you post the step by step guide?
i am on oreo 8.0.0.046 and want to flash another version, or downgrade to nougat because few things don't work on this version
i dont know if downgrading works, i just reflashed the latest oreo.
accordingly to the first link it should work, just flash the TWRP from the second link and then follow the instructions from the first link.

i did sucsses to install twrp but on the second step, when i press on install on twrp, the phone restart to erocovey and failed to find the files. what am i doing wrong?
i think that i am stuck with that version forever....
if you reboot to erecovery, you have not successfully installed twrp. you have to install it with "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk <path to twrp>"

Bricked, no TWRP access, any ideas?
Hi.
I know this about a P10, I have a P10 Plus (VKY-L29C605), but the process should be similar, I think.
I bricked my phone after succesfully upgrading from B174 to B321 using HWOTA. After which I decided, since I was at it, to flash the Hyperplus Kernel. This led to a bootloop. To fix it I decided to just go ahead and HWOTA B321 all over again and get over it, and would have probably gone just fine, except I decided to rebrand (C605 > C432) while I was doing that, silly (no, stupid) mistake. This led to the brick I am currently expriencing, I have no recovery access, erecovery or TWRP.
So now I am left trying to unbrick the phone. I extracted the UPDATE.APP for both update_all_hw.zip and update.zip using the Huawei Extractor Tool with no difficulty, except unbricking methods ask for boot.img, which I could not find, so I went along without it and flashed: cust.img, recovery_ramdisk.img (using fastboot recovery_ramdisk command for Oreo), and system.img. All of the commands completed succesfully, but no shebang, still bricked and no recovery access. I figure this has to do with the rebrand as the result after executing the command "fastboot getvar vendorcountry" shows the rebrand pulled through (hw/eu 432).
I am currently downloading HWOTA8.zip (3GB worth of download) to see if I can do something it. I am also downloading the L29C432B360 OTA-FULL, since I believe I am not getting any progress becuase I used the updates for L29C605B321.
The kind people at funkyhuawei told me they could fix it with their tool, but I don't have the money for that right now.
I will post updates, but any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Many of us have posted over this in the last couple of days. Seems like Funky Huawei unbrick tool was the mehtod to get it work for me. You could try that!
or use dc-phoenix for me it worked (= in the moment i try to capture the usb ports kommunikation so i have the tool with the aktual firmware longer for 3 days :silly:
would first give dc a try 20 bucks for 3 days is ok i think (=

maybe someone can provide me a recovery image for twrp? (one for oreo, otherwise it wont work) so i can give this a try...

Must download some software for your phone, unzip update.zip, decompile UPDATE.APP to .iso files, (like recovery.iso, system, iso, vendor iso, boot iso) use fastboot and 10 minuts job, I brik my device over 10 thimes, and repair it.
So I was able to get the C432B360 firmware and I flashed it, but no I can't enter recovery mode because the battery is low (red lightning bolt/red led flash). Anybody know how to charge or force recovery mode boot from fastboot?
If anyone needs, can use my DC-Phoenix account, I don`t need it anymore.

Greeting,
Can you explain the procedure of how to do it?
Thank you

flashing rom via TWRP with frp lock?

Hi, I'm in a bad situation. My honor 9 lite (Europe) has no OS, frp lock. But it does have TWRP installed.
My question would be, since I can't flash an OS (given the frp lock) via fastboot, would it work via TWRP? Or should I just give up and buy a new phone?
Thanks a lot.
Best
Since you have TWRP, try using HURUpdater tool. It is compatible with H9L.

Hi,
thanks a lot for the tip. Unfortunately, I keep getting an error when flashing following the instructions.
I discovered that nonetheless I can flash roms with TWRP. There is one particular rom, this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/development/rom-t3753555 that works particularly.
However, my device with that rom keeps giving me an error "bluetooth keeps stopping". Any way to solve that?
I really don't know a solution.
Can't you enable OEM unlock in settings/developer options? so that to make frp unlocked?
Yes.
After that, I was able to finally flash stock rom
However, there's a new issue: wifi doesn't work. It actually seems like whatever rom I flash, wifi won't work the slider turns off as soon as I turn it on
Did you wipe data/factory reset through eRecovery after flashing? That is important in most cases!

No I did not. I think I used TWRP to do that. Will do with eRecovery next time and update you
I am still without WiFi.
I think the problem lies in the fact that my stock ROM comes from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/how-to/guide-unbrick-device-recover-bootloop-t3772563
I had oreo 8.1 before brick, and the rim above that I flashed is 8.0 and Indian version (not european). That maybe could explain the issue.
Problem is, I would need a system.img stock ROM to file and I can't seems to find that. In Huawei firmware finder, I only get update.zip kind of files and TRWP returns error when flashing that or when I use the HuRUpdater tool.
Also, I've noticed it's not just the WiFi, but also security options and themes for some reason
you need a working frp image which in twrp can flashed via dd... so the frp lock is gone...
In telegram group you can find image.

The system.app file you search for is in the update.zip file you get and you cannot flash update.zip directly from twrp, you need HuRupdater for that and the dload method doesn't work for almost anyone including me.
And you need correct the firmware for your motherboard if you want your phone to work properly.
First tick oem unlocking in developer options. Then unlock fastboot and flash TWRP.
Since you are able to boot up check your varient, the complete one not just the LLD but the rest too. Search for it in Huawei firmware finder and download the latest firmware for your model. You'll get 3 links and you'll need all three.
Download HuRupdater 0.3 zip and then rename the 3 files you got as told in the HuRu instructions. get twrp image and rename it to recovery.img and put all files in the same folder.If you want to completely revert to stock you don't have to have recovery.img but keep it just in case.
Then flash HuRupdater using twrp. You should be up and running if you did everything right.
You can then remove the recovery.img and then flash again using HuRupdater and relock the fastboot too later if you wanna play things safe using fastboot relock bootloader 'your code' .
please help me, honor 9 lite last night my flash rom forgot the data format so now can not boot into the operating system, locked FRP, can not enter the TWRP.
Hello, I know it's been a long time. I put the issue aside for a few months as I had another phone to use in the meanwhile just wanted to let you know i Just did the procedure you described and it worked perfectly! The phone is back to life :laugh:
