Official LineageOS support - Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers

will there be official LineageOS support?

A little bit early to tell i think but since Huawei stopped the bootloader unlock programm in April 2018 it will be at least more difficult and in general i think not as much development as on other phones. Also Kirin phones are harder to mod i think

That stinks why do the lock the bootloader?

There has been very little ROM development for Huawei flagship phones such as P20 Pro / Mate 20 Pro. Doesn't help with locked bootloaders and unlocking services have unstable ability to offer codes, sometimes they can offer codes at other times they can not. Currently FunkyHuawei offering unlocking codes for "$1150 HKD ($146 USD) per code" though some cheaper sites can be found.

p30 pro lineage os 17
can anyone verify this?

IF you still manage to get a device with unlocked bootloader, there's no way to root it or install a working TWRP, because there's ZERO development on Huawei P30 Pro and onward uawei devices...
That's because Huawei stopped giving users unlock bootloader codes and without them we can't have acces to get root, create custom rom's, TWRP and so on....

( this guide works perfect , i recommend that someone can make a better full guide , mine is working but i did it very fast, just to let people know, that you can root Huawei P10 Plus with OREO easily and fast without needing this rebranding thing.. )
1. First unlock your bootloader following Huawei unlock method. you can doing it here in french: https://hwid5.vmall.com/CAS/portal/userRegister/regbyemail.html
English here:
https://hwid5.vmall.com/CAS/portal/...huawei.com/en/source/plugin/hwlogin/login.php
IMPORTANT ***** Official Huawei web page for Unlock Bootloader is DOWN for a month for maintenance, someone confirmed this on xda forum, you can try to contact Huawei for a bootloader unlock request here:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeGwoQ44zqykuTfjCQrVP07JOHBYnBcAxAbz9SAVxPTFqMh9g/viewform
BUT you need to do this:
Go to Settings > Developer Options and enable ‘OEM Unlocking’.
you need to do other small things if it doesnt work, i made this guide fast , i know newbies will have a few difficulties, but this guide to root p10 plus is possible to do for everyone, someone need to do a better guide than mine im in a hurry these times, sorry)
2. Follow this little guide. and use FHMate10Tool joined in the guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/how-to/guide-how-to-root-p10-p10-oreo-firmware-t3720443
After 2 reboots your phone will be rooted. no need to do this rebranding thing ...

Thats true, but for new devices only. If your device is prior to may 2018, you still have 2 months time to get the code, before the service becomes unavailable. The code is available at this link:

I didnt find any free service.
All the links to the Huawei services are down. And they dont give the unlock code anymore..
But on the bright side, it is just a couple of dollars so well worth the money. Searching for a hour costs you more

This is not true if you are on the latest firmware.
I was refunded and told:
Huawei has updated security and its impossible to read bootloader unlock code on new firmwares.
Only 30 euro service can unlock latest firmware bootloader.
Any other way of rooting and putting on a basic ROM now ?

How to convert Huawei P10 VTR-L09 to Dual-SIM?

Can anyone tell me how to convert my HUAWEI P10 VTR-L09 to a dual sim?
I need detailed instructions please.
You need HWOTA to rebrand your phone: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/huawei-p10-debrand-rebrand-update-guide-t3691013
Note that an unlocked bootloader is required. Since Huawei doesn't issue the codes anymore this may cost you a few euros (e.g. DCUnlocker).

I am not sure. Huawei changed the bootloader a few months ago, which makes it impossible to roll back to older versions. I sold my P10, so I do not follow its developments anymore. So please check in the thread.

VOG-L29 update problem

Hi there
I have bought a second hand VOG-L29 Dual Sim 256 Gb/8Gb model few weeks a go. For many years i have used Samsung's amiral ships so this i want to use two phone paralel for a while to make sure this decision is true for me.
My device build number and model was 9.1.0.108 (SP2C900E108R1P7) and coudn't update via OTA or hi suite. So i started to search xda for OTG/Download mode update like i know from Samsung's. I have change rom's of my device with stock or custom many times in old devices and had no problem but in Huawei i get error " Your device has loaded a different operating system" I have try two version of rom files which publish in here 10.0.0.186 for C431 and C432.
May be i have choose wrong rom because i can't be sure whole model number which seems like 9.0.0.108(SP2C900E108R1P7).
Help me to find necessary rom version for my p30 pro and i can install it via erecovery OTG/microsd/usb update method.
Thank You

Hi m8,
Usually C900 is the version of the cust that gets flashed another firmware from another device and messes it up. Was your phone bought from a retailer? Do you have an option to return it and get an replacement?
What could bevthe issue? There are 2 options about it :
1. It was a VOG unit intented to be used by the on-line/offline testers or some reviewers and usually those tests devices has C900 cust (in that case it means NO OTA or other updates);
2. It had another cust and previous owner used paid services (as Funky Huawei) to flash firmwares and flashed a wrong one whitch f####d up the cust and without unlocked bootlader you can't change it or rebrand it.
As long as you cannot unlock the bootloader you will be stucked with this problem, even you flash C431 or C432 firmware.

Thanks for your reply i searched so many forms but no one has information that you have. I think i don't have chance to return it because device has no warranty so now i looked for other your idea about funky huawei or unlock bootloader. If there is a chance to make it with gsm repair shops helps i will try or is there any method to unlock bootlader from adb in recovery mode.

Short version :
1. Funky Huawei had an offer of unlocking bootloader codes for 200$, unlock bootloader code that for other OEM's IS FREE (Somy, Samsung, Xiaomi, etc)!!!. I don't reccomend paying a cent to them.
2. On GSM service centers they could change your phone's motherboard (it costs ~300$, depending on version - L29+8GB RAM+512 GB storage). Maybe take a visit to some GSM repair service or search on ebay/amazon for motherboard and buy one then get replaced in a service center.
Hope you get it done, somehow

Huawei P30 Pro Root Needed.

Hi Guys,
as we all know to root your Huawei device you need to unlock bootloader...
I am trying since 3 days to find a way to get a bootloader unlock code even wanted to pay but didn't find any one to provide me bootloader unlock code, XDA Forum is my last hope you guys are doing best for your visitors,
if anybody have a solution for it please help me out if not free I will pay for it.
Thanks....
No way to root EMUI 10 and i think we not get that possibility in future no one have bootloader code and its not possible get it for now in anyway. Now its coming EMUI 10.1 and may be EMUI 11 for our P30 Pro but i belive tjere will be very low chance for any root
Downgrade to 10.0, then downgrade to 9.xx, then try to remove the bootloader, then root

SImply. You can't.
THERE'S NO WAY to ROOT ANY HUAWEI DEVICE released after 24.05.2018! Some sites had insiders on Huawei company and could get some unlock codes for a whille and get 100$ for them, but no more since then.
No unlock bootloader code, NO option to get ROOT! Read bellow link for more info!

I was able to unlock the bootloader on my P30 lite and install TWRP + Lineage OS 16. It is a paid service but I think worth it to unlock your device.

If you enable developer options, you can enable "OEM unlocking", with the description "Allow the bootloader to be unlocked".

No. You still require the unlock key which is unique to each phone, and Huawei stopped giving them to users last year.
I saw the other brand fourms,how about the CVE 2020-0041 vulnerabilities ,
it's worked for other brand with locked bootloader...have anyone try and save it?:crying:
Annoyingly I bought my P30 about 5 days before Huawei stopped sending people bootloader unlock codes, I only bought it because it was a nice rootable flagship phone. By the time I got the actual device, I couldn't get any codes any more.
Grrr Huawei!
( Also wow, this is an ancient signature, I should change that some year! )
You will need to downgrade to EMU 9.0 I believe. I was able to unlock the bootloader on my P30 lite and install TWRP + Lineage OS 16 been running stable for weeks.
