Hi everyone. i searched the forum but did not find any suitable information, i hope i did not miss anything.
I have a Nokia 8, Model: TA-1004 (Dual SIM), running the latest known stock update to me Android 9 00WW_5_15G_SP04.
I have some company SW on the phone which starts to make a fuzz about the to old Android version (9) so i have to either buy a new phone or update the current one. Problem is that my company does not allow any rooted devices. Is there any chance to update it to a newer version of Android without root?
Does anybody know? The phone is otherwise great and it would be a bugger having to buy a new one just because of this.
Best regards and thanks a bunch for any possible help here.
regards
You can put Android 12 Pixel Experience on it, default is unrooted. But ofcourse you need to unlock the bootloader.
Thanks for your reply. Now that sounds interesting. I will have to check how that is done. Have not done that before.
Have you got a link for that rom somewhere?
Regards
Basicly all is covered here: https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/NB1/install/
Nokia Bootloader Unlock Took doesn't work anymore but you can still unlock using this guide: https://www.techmesto.com/guide-unlock-bootloader-nokia-android-phones/
After bootloader unlock you can install T-Virus, it includes PixelExperience Android 12, then just take OTA to latest version.

Hello everyone
I've recently spend a few weeks in China and have discovered that most phones in the US are behind the times, so I decide to pickup a Huawei P20 Pro. Not having to done my research properly (totally my fault) I discover many items are not install on the Chinese version of Oreo such as Google Play Store and etc. So I was wondering what is the simplest was to change my Chinese firmware to the Canadian version. I have not done anything to P20 Pro yet, did not do any OTA upgrade yet.
Model - CLT-AL00
Build Number - CLT-A00 8.1.0.111(C00)
EMUI - 8.1.0
Android 8.1.0
Not looking for anything special builds or anything, I just want the simple Canadian stock firmware version of the P20 Pro loaded and the simplest way. Thank you in advance.
You can install all the Google Apps with the apk (sideloading). Mine is working good (chinese version in Brazil), but just without some Google features that I don't use (like swipe left to go to assistant, for example).
You need the bootloader unlock code to install a new firmware, but the Huawei stopped to give these codes a some time ago. You can search the forum from time to time to find if they restarted this "service".
Search for funkyhuawei.
I think they have all the services you need.
You will have to pay for it though.
Cheers.
Thank you both @FOXTEiN and @Nano- yes I been trying to look for the bootloader, not sure why they stop providing it. Argg.. this sucks. Life goes on.
Hello guys,
First of all : I will try it today and will say if it worked.
I know that a lot of people have troubles searching for a working method to unlock your Huawei Mate 10 Pro bootloader.
I tried almost all things. Bought a 4 Euro Access code for the DC Unlocker but got a error message 375 - device not supported for 8.0.0.157 C432.
Now I found someone which provides unlock codes also for the latest firmware version
I paid 30 euro to get the unlock code (wrote him in WhatsApp )
https://ministryofsolutions.com/huawei-bootloader-unlock-service-all-new-models-new-firmwares
After you get your Unlock code you have to follow these guide
https://www.droidwiki.org/wiki/Huawei/Bootloader_Unlock
Or Herr
https://ministryofsolutions.com/2016/04/official-huawei-bootloader-unlock-tool.html
As I said I got the unlock code now and will report you, if it worked. Stay tuned.
PS: this guy from WhatsApp is so nice ! Got my code after 5 minutes. Helped me and answered all my questions
Pretty high price for something that was for free till a few months ago
Yes its true but it worked for me.
Now I'm running openkirin omnirom.pie.
It the code wouldn't worked I had to buy a new phone so it's good now
I just received a refund from Ministry of Solutions, as they can no longer provide a code for my Mate 10 Pro. Not sure whether this applies to earlier firmwares (mine is BLA-L09, 8.0.0.137).
EDIT: Apparently the service is back up and running. I have since paid again and received an unlocking code. I haven't had a chance to test it yet.

What was wrong with your Huawei mate 10 pro, that meant you had to flash a custom ROM, just curious?

Wanted a much faster phone but I have to say I'm got the stock back but with twrp and root.
Stock is the stablest one for mate 10 pro.
I will delete all the bloatware on stock and I like the emui much more.
Now I have magisk and some cool modules. I can also use android auto and mirror my complete phone (main reason for root)
Good evening all,
I am currently running a P20 Pro (CLT-L09 8.1.0.159(C782)) with Stock EMUI 8 firmware, TWRP recovery and Magisk root.
I am looking for the best way to upgrade to Android Pie (EMUI9).
where do I begin, the huawei app is obviously showing no updates as I am in the UK and apparently a second class citizen!
I have tried the funky huawei method and unfortunately the update fails.
what other method can I use to get to v9 (primarily so I can jump to a custom rom like Lineage
thanks in advance,
Dan.
ps. if I have missed any important info please shout.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...awei-p20-pro-charlotte-l29c432b131-8-t3809964 but use CLT-L09 C782 B168 from firmware finder instead. The Method should be the same
Hello everyone,
I cant seem to find a way to rebrand my P20 pro chinese version. My main problem is that I am already using EMUI 9.0.
At the moment i read many different opinions and I am afraid to brick my cellphone.
Funkyhuawei also doesnt show a method thats currently working and supported.
Here my cellphone Info:
P20 PRO CLT-AL00 - Build number 9.0.0.181 (C00E57R1P15) GPU TURBO
EMUI 9.0.0
Android security patch 1 January 2019
Bootloader is unlocked but that is the only thing done to the cellphone. everything installed is STOCK.
Has anyway succefully rebranded and installed the European software on a EMUI 9 Chinese version P20 PRO ?
If the answer is yes could you share with me how you did it ?
I appreaciate all the help and advice.
I just did but be ready to open your back cover of phone and put your phone to test point mode. Of course this is the worst case but keep in mind.
Read my posts: This and this
Open the back cover?
What's the test point Mode I've never heard about it. Did you followed any guide? Can you link it?
Also I didn't hear testpoint mode until I need it
There is no guide for it. You have to find someone who knows how to use it.
Check this post where is test point for P20 Pro.

CLT-AL00 to CLT-L29 eu version
[email protected] is 100% recommended!
Hello all,
I have Realme X50 5G RMX2051.
Unfortunately I upgraded to UI 2.0 and now I cannot use the Android Auto.
So I want to downgrade, but here is no official file.
Could you please help me with a solution?
How can I return to stock ROM, or change to EU ROM?
Thank you!
Does the bootloader change between those two versions?

Hello, I cannot answer this question. If you tell me where to look I can tell you. Do you know how I can change the ROM to the global one? Or maybe to downgrade manually, because Realme does not have a file for downgrade of this model.
Hi, I got RMX2051 for a while, and still find ways to change the ROM version to EU.
But unfortunetely, Realme locks everything on this phone, I think that's the reason why there's almost no resources here.
By the way, if you just wanna use Android Auto, maybe you'd install it through APK file.

Would you mind to post the screen shot or connect condition here ?
It may help to find out the problem.
Attached is the screen
I found Realme X50 5G (Realme UI 1.0) stock ROM here.
But, it shown in Chinese Simplified...
And here is the tutorial from OPPO ColorOS community. (It's the same Recovery with Realme.)
I'd did a downgrade UI procedure once few months ago, but failed, because the Recovery is going to check the version of Realme UI, whether it was older than installed.
Anyway, if you'd decide to do this, please do a completely backup of your data first.
May this help you, and good luck !
