Hi Devs,
I'm new to Huawei brand and considering jumping onto the P10 Plus....Yes, i know, this is the DEV board for the P9, but I have a reason I've posted here, as I wanted to reach devs familiar with Huawei and existing flagship models.
I noticed Huawei released the open source kernal for the P9 Plus which is now roughly 1 year old. I am curious to get your thoughts on whether or not you think the manufacturer PLANS to release the open source kernal for the P10 plus to allow for unlocking the bootloader and rooting? I'm potentially switching from LGE since there's next to NO dev community or support from the manufacturer on their phones including their flagships).
MODS: Apologies if this needed to be posted in the P9 Discussion forum - but my intention is for this post and thread to be seen by devs who have worked with their P9. Please allow some time before moving
If they released it then why we don't see custom ROM's so far ? Isn't enough ?
Huh?
Open source kernal Android 6.0 for P9 plus:
http://consumer.huawei.com/en/support/mobile-phones/p9plus_en-sup.htm
RoOSTA
found the source code for the p9 plus on emui 5
direct dowload: download-c1.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=95706&version=395347&siteCode=worldwide
or for searching yourself: consumer.huawei.com/en/opensource/detail/?siteCode=worldwide&productCode=Smartphones&fileType=openSourceSoftware&pageSize=10&curPage=1
( 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 ...
NOTE: WORKS WITH ROGERS CANADA HUAWEI P10 PLUS. Should works with any P10 PLus phone. my version is : VKY0L09 8.0.0.310(C654) OREO android os 8.0.0. EMUI 8.0.0
DONT WORRY i know the app is for Huawei Mate 10, but it will work for P10 Plus. it was done by Funky huawei, i know these guys, i paid for their service in the past, i unbricked a phone with them, their apps works flawessly, i suppose the joined app by funky has been uploaded by the guy in the guide, dont worry use it on your p10 plus. its free

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 ?

Hello RAR1991,
thanks for your reply, if I understand correctly, I need to upgrade my EMUI version to version 8 to have oreo and I can root the device?
Hello guys,
I am new to the XDA Forum but I always look for help on this site and the truth that has helped me a lot. (Sorry for my English, it's not as good as I'd like)
I need to unlock the bootloader of my Huawei P10, below I wrote more details of the device. Huawei no longer provides the unlock code, so I turned to DC Unlocker.
When I tried to read the unlock code, DC Unlocker Client shows error 375. I asked DC Unlocker support about this problem and I sent them my cell phone information. They answered the following: "This means that current version of android in your Huawei device has new sec patch and is not supported yet."
For your information, the details of the device are the following:
Model: VTR-L09
Build number: VTR-L09 8.0.0.365(C178)
EMUI version: 8.0.0
Android version: 8.0.0
Android security patch: 5 december 2018
Is there another way to unlock the bootloader? :crying:
Thanks in advance

Use HWOTA to downgrade to a lower version of your emui
VTR-L09C178B361 (8.0.0.361)

When you're finished downgrading try reading bootloader code through dc-unlocker and it should work.

This won't work. HWOTA needs TWRP and TWRP needs an unlocked bootloader.
@ghernandez94: It seems DC team has some issues in the last months to unlock phones. The support should give you refund if you ask them.
You could try HCU. I never used both, so I can't say if HCU is better or not.
I was looking for ways to unlock the bootloader and there is a way that is by paying 4 dollars and another way that is by locating the tespoint and with a program called PotatoNV it gives you the code to unlock it, it is used for Kirin 620 in my case I could do it on my honor 4x and It also works for p8 lite 2015 here I leave the github link of the potatoNV developer I also recommend watching the video tutorial is on github
