Hi,
I have Huawei Ascend P7 L-00, with EMUI 3.0 (ver. B608) ROM. I cannot download themes, because since EMUI 3.0 you can download them only via Huawei Cloud. But apparently the Cloud service can be used only in China (or other Far-East countries). If I try to connect to Huawei Cloud, the system always give me the message: "This service cannot be used in your country"
Is there any way to "cheat" the phone and make it think that I am in China right now?

Hi everybody, I'm new comer and using Huawei P9. Version L19C636B320
I tried many times update to B361 version by Huawei updater and Hisuite but unfortunately It didn't work. Follow some guideline I have just download update of L19C432B360 and copy to "dload" folder in my device, using power key and 02 volume button, it has been work and now my device version is: NDR90M test-key.
After that, I have use "update.app" file of some version (L19C636B361, L19C636B190) for change version again but it's not working and when use hisuite said that:
you are using the lastest official version.
Current version: NDR90M test-keys(Official)
Note: I cannot find the "check for update" function in Setting menu too.
Please help to explain what is status of my device?
Should I worrier about the next update? My device can be normally receive OTA update or not? What should I will do now?
Many thank for help!
(Sorry if any mistake on my English)
The same here.
I have a P9 Lite Gold L31 brand Vodafone ITA with no mods from the box, and I tried to update via Proxy following instructions of a non-specialized website.
I choosed FULL OTA 1,29 GB ca. and now I have NDR90M test-keys - Android 7.0
The phone seems to work but reading online it semms that this is not a regular package and I will not receive updates.
I became to shake myself with no ability to do anything.
Please tell me what to do to go back to previous situation (smartphone as out-of-box branded Vodafone with marshmallow and correct serial number) or at least to go to a situation where I'll can update via official channel.
Thank you so much, I can also pay you via PayPal.
Hello everyone
After I uploaded to 8.0.0.142 via Firmware Finder I haven't been able to uptade the phone anymore. I know FF has now sone issues doing updates due to how Huawei has changed the way they release the updates, but I can't update anymore the phone regularly. No updates at all...
Any idea?
I had the same problem. Contacted Huawei Support and they told me to send mail with s/n and imei so they can reset OTA updates. I don't think it worked, tried yesterday and nothing appeared, so I decided to try other ways.
I know that my phone is EU version, but it's not from my country, I believe it's from Luxemburg, if your phone is not from country you are in you might try what I did.
I succesfully updated from 8.0.0.142 to 8.0.0.150 and here's what I did:
- Reset Huawei Mobile Services
- Go to HiCare, changed language to German (idk if that's possible it worked, Huawei suppport offered me to change country to Italy, but it didn't work for sure)
- Download and install Fake Location app and allow mock localization in Settings -> Developer Options
- I changed my localization to Germany, after that I checked updates and whoah, there was one!
Try these and if it fails contact Huawei to reset OTA.
edit: You might try to update "System Update" from Huawei, just search for System Update Huawei in Play Store
Hello. I got update today. BLA-L09 150.

What do you mean by "Reset Huawei Mobile Services"? Do you mean uninstall it?
Thanks

sorry, I meant clear cache and app data: how-to
I tried your method but it didn't work for me.
Then I chatted with the Huawei service and they said BLA-L29C 8.0.0.148(C432) has been released today for my phone and I have to wait for the notification.
Let's see if it comes or not!
So, yesterday I tried to updated the phone in a slightly different way via Settings --> System --> System Update, click on the three dots on the top right corner and then click on "Download the latest full package".
Surprisingly it started downloading 8.0.0.150 and it successfully installed it
Waiting finished.
Hello everyone !
I had a battery drain issue so I wanted to try and change the software before resorting to a battery change, but now my phone is stuck at L09 C900B300 build and it used to be factory L09C432B504. I tried downloading the full package for 501 but the phone does not want to install it as it was "invalid".
Any ideas how I can force the b501 update on the phone ? It's hard to use ADB since the USB-C port on the phone is very worn out and it only maintains data-transfer in a certain position, if it gets shifted even a little bit it breaks the connection.
Thanks in advance !

You did a rollback and you cannot instal Nougat directly back
You must install c432b182 Marshmallow and then let it update by OTAs (with SIM card) to b50x
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73131443&postcount=321
Steps 4-9 apply to you (since you are already on c900b300)

Don't know what does it mean to you that you changed the software
If you rebranded from c432 to another cust, then you must also rebrand back to c432 by flashing its OEMINFO:

NOTE: Just saw you previously asked questions about P9 Lite
Pls be aware, this is Huawei P9 subforum, not for P9 Lite (different hardware, different firmwares)
The answer above with links/guides applies to P9, not to P9 Lite
If your question was for P9 Lite, please better search and ask on XDA P9 Lite subforum
Hey !
Thanks for your reply.
I have tried to follow the steps but I need to have the bootloader unlocked and it is discontinued by huawei, and in order to get the code from DC unlocker I need to invest a certain amount of money (id rather hand the phone over to a professional service and pay them and know that I have a fixed phone).
The other issue of the phone is that I cannot open the manufacturer mode on the phone using *#*#2846579#*#* since it does nothing, and I cannot use the calculator since this software does not have a calculator, it doesn't even have a camera app....
So I have contacted huawei support in hopes of getting the bootloader code but I do not hope for too much at this point. What are my other options at this point of handling this on my own ?
Looking forward to your response !

AFAIK, 'certain amount of money' for Bootloader code from DC Unlocker is only 4 Euros
If you search on XDA (various phones, just about Bootloader unlocking) you may find more online services (several months ago I've seen in some post), but they were more expensive
IMO, you don't need unlocked Bootloader if you are just following the first link, for dload-ing c432b182 without flashing oeminfo....
Update:
Okay the b182 package does not require unlocked bootloader which is great, it took the update and started going up all the way to b395 but it stopped there, no further OTA updates... It is okay to use at this point but I'm still curious to know if there is a way to get to it to update to the b50x version. I did try to use the small update for the b501 but the phone declined it.
Still thank you very much for guiding me through this ! This is a huge weight off my shoulders !

In Firmware Finder they have a new method based on eRecovery and changing the DNS server on your local WLAN AP
b50x must be showing as Approved to you for that method
It does not require Bootloader unlocked but no guarantee it would work (I tried with P9 rebranded to AL10 Oreo, managed to change DNS server address, eRecovery connected to but failed to update firmware that way)
There HWOTA method (in few variants) to install FullOTA-MF from Firmware Finder, but unlocked Bootloader is required
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75787156&postcount=3
Btw, if you ever unlocked Bootloader on that phone, just use the same code again (one must save always save the code for future needs)
As of recently there are some Huawei service firmware installations available, that also install by dload (not needed to have Bootloader unlocked)

When you download, you will need to unzip
Find Docs and Software subfolders (you may need to untar and unzip Software subfolder again)
In Docs folder there must be Huawei official guide how to install, check if it describes dload method (and what must be un-archived and copied to SD card dload folder from the Software subfloder)
I didn't use it for L09c432 but I successfully unbricked a P9 rebranded to AL10c00 (back to AL10c00 firmware) by such a package, really easy by dload, just by following their HowTo doc from the Docs subfolder
I performed a hard reset on my Honor 5C phone, managed to install the Play Store via USB cable, but I can't connect to any Wi-Fi network, shows the following message:
"password incorrect connection failed". Even putting any other password or trying a static IP.

If necessary, I can make any updates.

Hey there,
i've just removed the retail demo mode from one device using this method (Sigmakey):
Everything worked just fine and demo is removed now.
The only problem is, that the demo devices run a specific firmware (WEC892) that is unable to update to EMUI 10 or 11.
Is there any way to Update my device? A C432 (for example) firmware would be nice to have.
Erecovery doesn't work, also update via Hisuite is not possible.
thx
