I managed to downgrade from 9.1.0.311 to 9.0.0.286 through HiSuite, but I want to downgrade even further, to EMUI 8.1(preferably 8.1.0.152?) as both EMUI 9 and 9.1 have very poor battery life on performance on my phone. I have the bootloader locked and my model is CLT-L09 C432. Before I updated to EMUI 9.1, I was on 9.0.0.270 and the option "Switch to other version" (EMUI 8.1) was available on HiSuite. Now it isn't on 286.
So, is there any way to downgrade?

I'm just in the process of doing the same.
Use DLOAD method to get back to 9.0.0.195, then hisuite will give you the option to roll back to 8. (You'll need a usb-c otg cable) - This wipes the phone, be warned.
Download 9.0.0.195 here:
https://androidhost.ru/T8h
Basic Instructions:
Unzip the package. delete the CLT-LXX that you don't need. (so remove CLT-29 in your case)
copy the files to the SD card. Place the inside a folder called dload. (so you'll have "update_sd.zip" in the dload folder, another folder under dload called "CLT-L09_hw_eu" in which you'll have another zip called "update_sd_CLT-L09_hw_eu.zip"
open phone dialer and dial *#*#2846579#*#* go to Software Update and then select memory card upgrade. (alternatively with the device off press vol UP + DOWN + POWER and hold)
cross fingers and wait while is does it's thing.
Phone should now boot on 9.0.0.195, and hisuite /should/ give you the option to go back to 8.xx.
...You may be able to go back to 8 directly through dload method, but I've done it in two steps to be safe.
Someone else shared these images to help explain better. (Sorry whoever you are, I don't recall where I got this link from!)

Thanks, but do you have that 9.0.0.195 locally by mistake? It seems that on my computer it downloads with 256k/s and it would take 8 hours to download completely.

That's androidhost.ru I'm afraid - it's painfully slow at the best of times Took me about 2 hours to download it from there earlier.
And it did finnaly work, fortunately. Now I am on good old EMUI 8.1 . Now I still have a question, would it be able to disable the system updates app? As there's always the red dot on the settings icon because it keeps telling me I have a EMUI 9.0.0.163 update. And I don't want to update. I turned off auto wifi updates download but I'm afraid to not force update it after some time.

Hi guys,
Good day to all. I just bought an Huawei P9 - EVA-L09C440B138 and i'm having some issues with updating to Nougat.
As far as i understood i need to change from C440 to C432 to get Nougat.
To be honest.... i simply could not find a solution for my problem and i need help from you guys with a guide how to do that.
Can someone give me a solution.
Thank you!
A shot in the dark here, but you can try downloading this ROM:
http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/11/download-huawei-p9-b182-marshmallow-update-europe/
You will also need an SD card (if you already have one, you can use that)
- Once you have done that, extract it anywhere.
- Connect your phone to your PC, allow access so you open your P9 storage from your PC
- Copy the "dload" folder over to your SD card (so you have a folder on your sd card called "dload" with UPDATE.app inside)
- Power off your phone
- Hold down both volume buttons and power button at the same time
It will either go into recovery mode where it installs the firmware EVA-L09C432B182, or fail doing that...
If it manages to install B182, you can just update your phone to android 7 normally from settings. If it fails you probably need a different ROM, but I dunno which.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/guide-debranding-to-c432-updating-to-t3551523
One of the top threads for the Huawei P9.
A bit research should have done this.
You will find most needed files in my signature.
I just managed to update from B138 to B142, but i couldn't go to B380.
Please keep in mine that mine is C440 not C432.
I used also Profy Finder and so on.... now i'm stuck to B142, any sugestions ?
Thanks
P9 - EVA-L09C440B142.
Hi Today I show you how to remove the FRP of Honor 9 Lite, LLD-L31 only.
What you need:
1. Download https://drive.google.com/open?id=1seE_5zT-x9OQj0FqbIGEnqxW8inSZFNl. It contains all the neccesary files for performing the bypass.
2. A microSD card, 8GB would be enough.
3. Patience.
Download all the files somewhere on the desktop, for example. Somewhere easy to access. Extract the archive. You will see a dload folder. Send that folder plus the downloaded apk files to the microSD. MicroSD card must be formatted FAT32.
Force update your device. Turn it off, insert the microSD card, then press and hold both volume buttons plus power button. EMUI word should appear and soon it verifies and installs the update. Basically this can be an update or a downgrade. But this doesn't matter that much.
After it is done, it will boot up. If you are in a bootloop, just factory reset it, by pressing both volume up and power button.
Connect to a Wi-Fi network, after you did that, reboot the device.
Follow this video (it is not mine) and do exactly what he is doing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeXTn_KskV8
You are good to go! Credits to @djsobol for tips removing this!
Any questions are welcomed, we are here to help. Peace! :good:
This no longer works, in one of the 2019 security updates they changed something. Now the Youtube video can no longer be opened, so you are stuck at talkback.
True. But you can always downgrade to an older version.

Hi gentlemen,
some progress with frp lld-l31 with july security patch?
thanx, Krabat.
To remove the frp is simple. Hold up and power on, emui recovery page, choose safe mode. Wait till it boots to safe mode, find administrator settings, turn off find my phone and delete any accounts, tap build for the usual developer extra in settings, if own unlock is greyed out don't worry, enable ADB. Make pattern lock in settings, no keyboard is available hence the pattern, I registered a fingerprint too. Reset phone in settings then when rebooted the frp should be gone. If not, redo from start and check Huawei account and clear or uninstall. It works on P-smart 2019 and p8 lite also.
with november security patch is save mode the same like the normal one. no administrator settings..
K.
But you can downgrade to 9.1.0.124 and after that it's possible again
in the last few weeks, my Huawei p9 had many problems cuz of the last update!
my battery drain was increased, also the mobile shutting down when I used the camera even if battery more than 30%.
i thought all of those problems cuz of update not the battery, when I searched many times I found many guys written the same problems!
i contacted Huawei customer services, they told me that Huawei removed all software from their sites cuz of wrong use from some customers
here are how to Rollback your device without any problems.
1) First, download Android Nougat Rollback Package for Huawei P9 from here
middle east http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=91646&version=357962&siteCode=kwen
europe http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=91727&version=358124&siteCode=nl
2) Now create a folder dload in the root of your SD card and place the update.app file in that folder.
3)Now turn off your device.
4) Now press “Volume Up + Volume Down and Power Button” together. The update process will start automatically.
5) Now wait for some time to complete the process. Your firmware version should now be on “B300”.
6) Now download the full Marshmallow firmware from here
middle east http://huawei-firmware.com/rom/huawei-p9/eva-l19/324
or you can choose your eligible software from here
http://huawei-firmware.com/phone-list/huawei-p9
7) Now move the update.app file in SD card folder (Replace the rollback update.app file).
8) Now again press “Volume Up + Volume Down and Power Button” together to Downgrade Huawei P9 from Android Nougat to Android Marshmallow
9) Done.
This is the complete guide to Downgrade Huawei P9 from Android Nougat to Marshmallow. If you have any questions comment below.
This will be helpful. I have some question.
1. In number 2 do you mean to unzip the files and put the dload folder to sd card and leave update.app untouched?
2. And can you elaborate number 7 please? Is it the same update.app in number 2 and do I need to replace it to the downgrade firmware?
3. And is it okay to downgrade when my phone is currently network locked? Will it affect my phone or should i have it unlocked first? Btw my bootloader is still locked and I have no root.
I love you man! I nearly gave up! Thank you SO MUCH!
PS- Can we update the phone after rolling back? Or Will the OTA updates brick my phone?
It works indeed
Many thanks. It works perfect. Il had to use Hisuite to move the file in dload.
Now I get a notification asking me to update to emui 5. Ik don't want to do so of course but I can't stop the notification. Has somebody an idea ?
Don't understand guy.. am on oreo and never had any problems ..
Hello,
If I do the downgrade, will I lose my pics on my phone ?
Thanks for you feedback.
Reset Netwrok Settings
I was having the same issue ( sudden power-off when using camera or apps that use location), as well as the battery draining very fast.
I followed the steps suggested by Huawei to reset the network and (so far) it apperas to have resolved the issue. TBH its only been two days, but so far its looking good and did not require me to rollback or perform any other intervention. I'm too new to the forum to post a hotlink so you'll have to cut and paste it.

Oh god, thank you so much! u did the depression leaves me. I love you man <3
Recently updated my Honor 9 lite device to 9.1, it won't let be do anything. I can't rotate my screen, apps keep running in background, battery is terrible and can not install apps from play store(tried to reinstall the google play services by uninstalling it updates and everything). 9.1 on the device is terrible.
How do i degrade my android version. Reply ASAP
Firstly do not demand some one reply ASAP it's very rude to do so.
Secondly back up your important data as roll backing your firmware will trigger the device to erase itself (Very important)
Thirdly once you have done the first 2 steps connect your mobile to your computer and use the latest version of HiSuite and use the recover system option this should give you the option to roll back your firmware.

I can't confirm this. I am trying to downgrade my Honor 9 Lite (LLD-L31C432) to Android 8 right now for the "dload folder method" and I not being able to. When I put the UPDATE.APP inside dload folder on root partition of SD Card, I got an error and is not possible to downgrade.
Also try HiSuite but this phone is not compatible. Any advice?
I am very disappointed with Huawei. First it removes the possibility of unlocking the bootloader by official route and then removes the option to downgrade. Probably my first and last Huawei's phone.
If you take this route i am not responsible for any bricks!
Right, for starters C432 Devices are known not to work with DLOAD with Firmware Finder files.
You say HiSuite is not working for you. This might be because Android 9 requires HiSuite 9.
So simply head here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78850439&postcount=1317
Follow instructions and it will work.
Also make sure you downgrade with
https://pro-teammt.ru/en/online-firmware-database/?firmware_model=LLD-L31C432&firmware_page=0
Leland-L31AC432改B144 (8.0.0.144) LLD-L31C432B144 (8.0.0.144) which is the first one in the link above as that will roll you back to Android 8.0.

thank you. I am downloading the firmware and will make you know if that works. Just one question: what I exactly have to do in step 4? I have to search my device model as in the screenshot, select the firmware, register it on "DNS Update" then go to step 5? Sorry about the newbie question. I have no experience with FF and HiSuite.
Step 4 is to open the link that i already made for you to go directly to the right firmware page, then right clicking the firmware i told you which would of gave you
Code:
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G2052/g1647/v266695/f1/full/changelog.xml
Then in FF Tool select DNS Update, paste the link you just got or the one above that again i have just sorted for you.
Click Register then whilst FF is still open use HiSuite.
Then when the phone shows in HiSuite click Update, you should then have the option to downgrade from there.
Now please can i get one with Waking up, taking my meds so i can go to get my bloods done.

yep... I got this. But when I flash the firmware via HiSuite, the phone just bricked and now I have a totally black screen. It doesn't turn off or on. Any advice? I already download a Pie firmware, but the phone isn't beeing detected by ADB.
Press and hold power button for 10 seconds.
Then plug the cable into the charger and press Volume up and power on the phone and place the other part of the charge cable into the phone.
This has to be done with the charger not a computer.
If that works then it should show a menu to download the latest recover and use that to get your phone back online.

Tried. No signal of life. Nothing happen.
When you connect it to a PC does it show in device manager?
Also press pressing the power button for 10 seconds then puttin the cable to the phone whilst it's not plugged into anything then pressing volume down and place the cable into the pc. See if fastboot shows up. If fastboot shows up you could try recovery option in HiSuite.
Sent from my SNE-LX1 using Tapatalk
yes, as Android Bootloader Interface.
See if you can use HiSuite to recover the phone. Install the basic driver for ADB and fastboot.
Also I have to go now, as my hospital appointment awaits me.

(1) yes, as Android Booloader Interface.
(2) my phone (LLD-L31(C42)) isn't suppoted by HiSuite. So, I can't use it.
obs.: my phone is beeing recognized by fastboot:
.\fastboot.exe devices

ok. I will wait for you. I need to sleep as well.
See if HiSuite 5 will detect your device and recover it else I am unsure what you can do after this point. There is a telegram group that you could get help from failing that.
Sent from my SNE-LX1 using Tapatalk
I have HiSuite 5.0.x.x here. I will try it.
You talk about Big Huawei Exploits group?
HiSuite_5.0.1.300_OVE also says that my phone isn't supported.
Yes I am talking about that group, the fact that fastboot still shows means all is not lost. Good luck in your endevor to unbricking your device.
Sent from my SNE-LX1 using Tapatalk
I joined the group, but unfortunately no one could help me. Any other suggestions?
edit: for no one could help me read it nobody answered me.
Try the other group, which is dedicated for H9L. The only other way I can think of is to try and flash stock erecovery on the phone and see if you can recover that way.
Sent from my SNE-LX1 using Tapatalk
which one?
how to flash stock erecovery? All fastboot commands gives me FAILED (remote: Command not allowed) error. I tried on both Windows and Linux. adb devices doesn't see the devices, but fastboot devices see.
I would not like to spend money with this, but DC-Unlock software can help me? If yes, I will consider to pay for it.
Best bet is to ask on the group I PM's you.
They are more suitable to helping out.
What command did you use to try and flash erecovery?

Hi every one. I can't find solution to my problem so I decided to ask your help.
Few days ago I read that I can update my Huawei p10 to android pie officialy through Hisuite. Scanned for update and it said that I'm on the latest android which was emiui 5.1 so I started to look for a way to force it and found solution (will be posted bellow).
After it Hisuite found pie 9.0.1 update and after downloading the files it started installing it. After that it loaded 100% and rebooted, then rebooted again and again and again... shortly realised that it's bootlooping. Tried to turn it off and yet it kept bootlooping, took it apart disconected battery and hopped to enter recovery mode or fastboot, boot as soon as i plug the battery in and put usb or power on button same thing continued and i can't enter those modes whatever i do. Can anyone help me with this?
Oh yeah, I've tryied this methode on mate 9 pro from 5.1 to 9.1 and it worked flawlessly, then right next after that I attempted p10. Also i think i didn't do anything with firmware finder couse i saw update anyway.
Also on backup photo Details it shows build VTR-L09C432B171 ithat was before me trying to update it
Update methode
