Does anyone know the different version mubers and what they mean?
For example my Mate s has build number CRR-L09C900 b131 CUSTC900D131
and i have seen where some one elses has CRR-L09C432 B114
is the c900 and c432 part of the build numbers significant? are they interchageable?
Do i need only worry about the B--- part of the number as long as it is for thr CRR-L09?
or what do the Custom Version numbers mean?
can someone please explain?
Let's pick CRRL09-C432B145CUSTC432D003, as an example:
CRR-L09 = model number [extremely important]
C432B145 = entire build(number) [identifier for each version update]
B145 = [build abbreviated] (normally higher=more recent)
CUSTC432D003 = customization number [changes (varies) with each update]
Some numbers could vary due to the country, region and operator. Make sure that the model number corresponds to your device. In addition look at the abbreviated build number, which shows the ‘’recentness’’. Generally the higher the build number the more recent the firmware version. To sum up: important numbers in our example are in bold: CRR-L09C432B145CUSTC432D003
Some other abbreviations, that Huawei uses in Firmware labeling:
V = Version, R = Release, B = Build, D = Debug, SP = Service Pack, C = Customization
Thanks for that but when most people put firmwares up, they do not usually mention a custom number.
So for me, is it ok for me to manually upgrade from my current CRR-L09C900B131 to CRR-L09C432B145 without any problems even though i have not had notification of this on the updater?

Do not worry too much about the customization number. The only thing that should match is the model number. So yes, you should be able to update even though you did not receive a notification on your device.

Hi there,
Im having trouble understanding what the difference is between Customisation Numbers and Sales Item Numbers.
I understand that Cust numbers determine what software version you use on your phone. and its there to give different regions/networks their own version with added apps. What is the SI number in relation to the cust number? or is it the same thing?
I know my SI Number for my phone, its written on the box and inside the phone under the back cover, but i dont know how to find out my original customisation number? I assumed the Cust and SI numbers were the same. My SI number is 1272-0816.7 and in update checker, there is a Customisation number which is 1272-0816. But i've read in other boards on XDA that the Cust No and SI No are different?
So confused by this!
Edit: So my actual questions are: How can I find out my original Cust No. ? And, Is the Cust No and SI No the same thing?
Bump! Anyone have any answers for me?

Customization number have not interest at all, all rom with same build number are identicals.
Customizations are just adding some little things but nothing important and mainly carriers apps and preinstalled settings.
Most importnat is to flash correct ftf for your phone model
They're not the same. If you want to know cust ver of your current rom..
Dial *#*#7378423#*#* (remember: *#*#SERVICE#*#* ) > Service info > Software info
If you already flashed another rom..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2445373
(See few posts before the last one, [links in OP are dead].., do a find/search with your SI number).
Thanks for replying guys, I really should have noted down my original number before flashing, I'm pretty sure mine is just generic UK, just wasn't 100% sure. On my box the Si number is the same as the 02 UK cust number, but my phone is unbranded, so that's where my confusion came from, I was worried if I needed to get back to stock for warranty, and if I had the wrong cust number, it might get rejected?
Luckily I have no problems and I'm careful with the phone so hopefully it won't be a problem.

I also forgot my cust ver, but found out from those lists. What's your SI?
Edit: Oops! it's in OP.
Search gives this:
Code:
"C5303 Customized UK 1272-4687" "1272-0816 C5303/Mobile Phone/ET967/Customized UK (United Kin" for 35660405,35757705
Check whether either of the bunch of numbers at the end match with part of your IMEI. Cust ver should be 1272-4687.
Hey
So, I just bought my p9+ and wanted to root it.
But From what I see (https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/development/twrp-t3584486 for example), it's for B380+ only and my build number is VIE-L09C02B34.
Will it work anyway ? Or if not can I make it works ?
Build number is different because your phone is branded (c02=vodafone brand). Just check emui versione, if it's 5 or above (so if you have nougat) you are ready to go.

Ok thanks, and then I can debrand it by thishttps://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/how-to/vdo-guide-how-to-debrand-huawei-phone-t3410046 method, can't I ?
As far as I know that tool works only with marshmallow, but maybe I'm wrong, check the thread. I used a different guide which is on an italian forum.
I just got my hands on a Note 9 that was bought from Rogers and therefore has the Rogers rom.
I can use ADB or PDP to remove the bloat, but for the sake of simplicity, I would much rather just use a standard universal rom. I remember being able to do this when I had my Note 7 but its been a while and I'm forgetting the process. I remember using Odin lol.
Any advice and help is greatly appteciated! Also, I tried searching but XDA search NEVER seems to show results, EVER.

I'm almost certain the SM-N960U1 firmware will work on your phone.
However,you may lose some carrier-specific functionality (WI-FI Calling/VoLTE/VVM/etc....) by doing so.
I have no direct knowledge of Rogers,but,there is a dedicated Canadian Note 9 thread you may want to take a look at before proceeding:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...te-9-canadian-thread-rumours-pricing-t3826820
EDIT:
@imatts
Taking a look at this this site (Updato),it looks like there may be Canadian-specific unlocked/SIM-Free (SM-N960W) firmware:
https://updato.com/firmware-archive...&rpp=15&r=SPC,XAC&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1
Again,my knowledge of Canadian versions & carriers is non-existent,so,please take a look in the thread I linked above for guidance.

Thank you. Another noob question (if anyone else is reading this, feel free to also help!)
I see a ton of random characters after the N960W, what do they mean? How do I know which one to choose, and also, whats the difference between the XAC and SPC versions?

I can help you there. I wrote a guide to decode the build number. It was written for the N960U, but still applies to the N960W.

You can tell what version of Android it is just by the build number. You can also tell if each update just contains the updated security patch, or if new features were added or updated.*
The first character (S or U) tells you if it's a security patch or a feature update. S = Security Patch and U = Feature Update (features added or changed)
The second character (a number) tells you bootloader version. This is important to know when upgrading and downgrading OS versions. You can NOT downgrade the bootloader. 1 = Bootloader V1, 2 = Bootloader v2, etc...*
The third character tells you the Android version. This is different for each Galaxy device. A is the Android version that device 2as released with. (For the Note 9 A=Oreo; C=Pie) B will likely be newer versions of Oreo, possibly with an updated bootloader. Z is for official Samsung BETA program builds.*
The fourth character is the year of the build (R=2018, S=2019). This is the same across all Galaxy devices.
The fifth character is the month of the build. This does not indicate what security patch it contains, only what month it was built. (A=January, B=February). Again, same across all Galaxy Devices.*
The sixth character is just the sequence of builds that month (1-9, then A-Z)
SO
S - Security Patch
1 - Bootloader V1
A - Oreo
R - 2018
J - October build
9 - 9th build in October
and*
U - Feature update
1 - Bootloader V1
C - Pie
R - 2018
L - December build
2 - 2nd build in December
and
U - Feature update
1 - Bootloader v1
Z - Official Samsung BETA program build
R - 2018
K - November build
P - 25th build in November
So let's break down my current build number, N960U1UEU1ZRLL
N960U1 - Build is for the Factory unlocked U1 model
UE - Honestly I have no idea, LOL
U - Features updated or added
1 - Bootloader V1
Z - Official beta build
R - 2018
L - December*
L - 12th build in December
Make sense?
all canadian firmwares I've seen are identical. the trick would be to change your sales code to XAC(unbranded Canadian region code). and just flashing the XAC firmware wont do squat as it still contains all carriers because its multi csc and your sim card will still end up being detected and get its carriers bloat. (SPC = PC mobile , president's choice? lol)
i have no experiance with flashing u1 on a W.
but if it works, loosing csc specific features and other stuff might not be worth it in the end just to debloat.

You may be right. I honestly haven't researched that part of the build number.
Edit:. It appears that's correct. I can find a list of region codes, but ironically none of them include US region codes. But that has to be the region code.
The N60U1 firmware all show a region code of UE, and the carrier branded N960U show a region code of SQ.
Thanks for the info!!

what i hate about samsung naming conventions is that they have at least 3 variation of them:
-device build identification (like on the oem box)
-firmware build identification
-csc build identification
and the damn country code is all diferent even if its all from the same place.

Heyyyy lol, so I used Odin (3.12.3) and I was expecting ti wait a long time for the fw to flash, but when I pressed start, it showed green, passed, succeeded and rebooted into the setup I had previously, all within a few seconds.
Do you (or anyone reading) know why??
I was hoping to completely reset my phone and restore to the stock FW.

not sure what you dled but firmwares are to be unzipped and odin slots filles with:
BL
AP
CP
CSC
in your case flashing only csc.md5 should work.
you need to use odin 3.13.1
but this is besides my point. all canadian firmware contain all carriers. so you'll just end up with a reset phone full of bloat anyways.

so what carrier is your sim card from?

Hi All,
I've had a google and can't find anything about this so wondering if anyone knows what is up with firmware finder? Loads of new firmwares appeared today all at once.
The attached screenshot is from the CLT-L09C782 version but seems to be happening to other versions too.
My guess is that it's now showing beta's that we didn't previously have access to.
How are we supposed to work out which to use going forward? I would love to force a newer version but need it to be certified for google pay etc.
Type on phone dialer: *#*#2846579#*#* (ProjectMenu)
From that go to 2. Veneer Information.
Than 1. Version Info.
Now scroll down till you will find: Product Component version, Base Software Version.
I am now on CLT-AL00C00B181 (pie b181).
However, it appears to mine version too: Product-CLT-LGPR1-CHN 9.0.0(P), and CLT-LGRP1-CHN 9.0.0.181.
So I suppose, that the new names stands for simplifying the huawei firmware namings.
It will not be multiple versions but 2 (maybe): CLT-LGRP1 for asian market (CHN) and CLT-LGRP2 for the rest (OVS).
But again this is my logic.
Anyway, I didn't know how update, since those new firmwares contains not 2 but just 1 zip file (full_base).
Just an update:
If you chose in FF the model name: CLT-LGRP1 (for CHN) or CLT-LGRP2 (for the rest) you will find the same firmware version as earlyer with older name convention. (This stands for PIE only)
Example: CLT-LGRP1-CHN 9.0.0.181, 167, 156, ... 110. Same versions as earlyer just with modified names.

Thank you for the explanation. Hopefully someone will figure out how to force the updates in the near future. I liked the Firmware Finder eRecovery option so hopefully that can be adapted to work.
This would make sense, well spotted. Relatively unified os.... Before the operators get their hand son it. However the naming makes it difficult to know which to install via ff as there's many different versions eg 204 211 all released on same day....

It certainly is confusing now there's no way to tell which version is for which region of which device. No way of knowing if it's L09, L29, C782 etc.
Hopefully someone will figure it our or the FF people will update the app so show extra details if that is possible.
Probably been done specifically to block people using the likes of ff on behalf of the networks cos they had a tantrum [emoji23]

I didn't get to check it with eRecovery method, but it worked for me with modified HiSuite method without any problem (updated C432 from .163 to .195).
For now I didn't find any of the .2XX builds to be approved for installation.
So out of curiosity (boredom) I've done a bit of browsing with the help of Google translate, it seems lgrp is the component level name given to the devices. And upon checking on FF only .211 has been "approved for installation" so I'm currently downloading the file directly to check filenames as it seems the uncompressed file may still have the region number in it. If I don't report back...... My phones dead lol
Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk
So file contents give no indication of specific region, and even accepted and allowed updates fail once reach the erecovery stage.... Just getting "getting package info failed" over and over.
So not only are Huawei **** at releasing the updates but they're pretty adept at blocking us from taking alternate routes

I've never seen such device vagueness \ lack of specifics data.
OP Community forums useless.
I purchased from OP USA & have not activated cellular service yet.
Settings list model OPD2203 OS 13.1, no geography. Build # opd2203_13.1.0.519(EX01)...already contains Multi-Connect.
No other model name listed in web search.
System Updater says OS up to date, while
Oxygen Updater just added this device, listing Euro & Indian variants, labeling this the latter,
and presenting update opd2203_13.1.0.544(EX01) 2023-06-03 (...adds Multi-Connect support... nothing re any monthly Android Security Patch)
IF I label it European, it throws error message and removes presented update.
Tablet was released w\o Multi-Connect btw, so that higher upgrade # claiming to add Multi-Connect makes no sense (if lower version # already has it).
I'm clueless here. ¿Any thoughts? Thanks.
If you read the announcement in the Oxygen Updater app declaring that the device is now supported, you'll find that it also says:
Both full & incremental OTA ZIPs for A.12 are available in the app, except for global/NA, because we're not yet sure of that regional variant's model number. If you have this device in the US, please email us at [email protected] with a screenshot of the "Device" tab in our app.

I'd imagine after you email them the requested info, the proper firmware will be added to the app.
Thank you for that. Except that all seem to have the same model number. I'll send, maybe I'm missing something obvious.
Just got presented ota with same version number update already being presented for days by Oxygen Updater.
It's description is strange though- my Pad already had full Multi-Connect.
