Rebranded CLT-L29 Upgrade to EMUI 9 and no service - Emergency calls only. - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi,
So a while back I rebranded my CLT-L09 to CLT-L29 C432 which went fine. Even though I have a dual sim tray it doesn't recognise the second sim, so I just left it as is as I was hoping that at some point in the future a tool would be released to convert to dual sim.
Yesterday I upgraded to 9 and the first sim which was working, now does not work. I don't get the prompt to enter the PIN and the phone just says emergency calls only. I tried reverting back to 8 and the sim is recognised again.
Would quite like to go to 9, so what are my options? Can I use the same rebrand files and oeminfo to rebrand to CLT-L09 C432 for example?
Thanks,

Ok - so the SIM had a PIN on it. Removed the PIN and it's now working - so perhaps there is a bug in 9 with the SIM PIN prompt which never gets shown to unlock the SIM?

Convert Model L09 single sim to Model L29 double sim

Hi guys,
it's possibile convert L09 single sim to L29 dual sim changing oem info and firmware and buying a double sim tray?
Someone did it with nougat?
The hardware of p9 plus single sim and dual sim it's the same looking inside.
Thanks,
I think you can do it with HCU client (without changing oeminfo) but you need a valid IMEI number (I did not try it)

Huawei P8 lite 2017 PRA-LX1 Dual or single SIM ?

Hello, I have a Huawei P8 lite 2017 PRA-LX1 phone bought 3 months ago. Originally it had a PRA-LX1C02B158 Vodafone firmware (Nougat) single SIM, but after rooting, unlock bootloader and FRP and finally after many and many tries ( I can not remember all of them ) I followed Almironi procedure (https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/p8-lite-2017-discussion/trying-to-update-to-oreo-t3814332) and the phone booted again apparently without any Vodafone files (even initial logo disappeared) and with Oreo version. The problem was that I thought that with f/w PRA-LX1C432 PRAGUE_L31 my phone will become dual sim. WRONG it still recognizes only 1 SIM card. Does any one really know if this phone can be flashed to a dual SIM version ? Does it have the necessary hardware since it only shows one IMEI ?
Sorry if there is already a post with this questions or if a broke any rule of this forum.
Many thanks in advance.

You cannot upgrade your phone from single sim to dual SIM. Dual SIM means that your phone has two slots for two SIM cards. Your phone has one. No software can change that.

Rebrand a debranded mate 10 pro: I will lose dual sim?

Hi. I have a mate 10 pro. Originally it was a branded bla-l09 mono sim. I, with funk Huawei, turned it in l29 dual sim. Now I have the need to turn it again in l09 and I think to do this with hwota8 (to save my money). This tool does not touch the mono/dual sim functionality. Doing this, there is a chance that it remains dual sim?
Thanks

Yes, because FH tool flashes an included (and disguised) oeminfo that is dual-sim. The included oeminfo changes your imei, imei2 and sn while in fastboot. Which in turn has also changed your bootloader unlock code.
HWOTA8 will only edit oeminfo to L09 but you will still technically be dualsim. I'm not sure how that will work on L09 firmware though. However, when you flash oeminfo you will have to unlock again, which will be impossible if you don't have your new unlock code (Acquired after you rebranded using FH).
What firmware are you on now?
Starting with BLA-L29C432B145 (The Night Shot update, so might already apply to all cust that has the new Night shot firmware) you can no longer get an unlock code from DC/HCU.

Yes I have a unlock code got after debranding with dc unlocker. Now I am in c432b148-sp1 (xloader 01).
ok i do all.
the situation is this: dual sim works! But in the settings, isn't any option to activate/deactivate sim1/sim2.
If i remove sim 2, It looks like a normal mono sim.
If i can manage it with a third part app... it was fantastic!

Dload CLT-L29 over CLT-L09

Has anyone flashed the CLT-L29 ROM over CLT-L09 and see what happened? I have CLT-L09 with dual SIM functions but the second SIM doesn't allow me to call out. The L29 would allow me to do this supposedly. My bootloader unlock code doesn't work anymore so dload would be the only way for me to do it, unless I can go roll back with hisuite and use the DNS method.

P10 Lite LX1A C432 converted to Dual SIM but only 1 IMEI shows

I converted my P10 Lite from a VF LX1A Single SIM to a LX1A C432 Dual Sim, many many moons ago.
The phone works fine, but it only shows 1 IMEI number and 000000000 for the other.
Bootloader is unlocked and FRP is unlocked.
I have TWRP 3.4.0-0 on the phone.
I know the correct second IMEI number (managed to get it out of hw support when i got the phone),
but wondering if there is anyway to fix it so the phone actually shows the correct IMEI numbers
