Hi. I have a L09C150B140 from cosmote Greece.
Is there any update to this version?
Can I find this version and keep it for warranty purposes and just debrand to an other firmware?
Thanks.
Probably there is not an update available, probably you have the stock rom of your carrier, will recommend you to debrand the device and change you update area oeminfo, you shouldn't lose your warranty because you are flashing and installing an original and stock rom of Huawei.
Help！My phone is c346. I want to change into other edition 。Maybe c636 or other
My p9 is from vodafone au。it is c346.I never get new update。So i want to change my phone into other edition rom。Maybe c636 c436. anything is ok。i just want have update。So what should i do？ thanks、
is there a guide to know what version is to what number ?
My phone is EVA-L09C212B141 and I want to know if it the latest version.
It has EMUI 4.1 on Android 6.0
Update's are pushed out based on IMEI number, you can manually change your cust to other areas yes, but that won't mean you can get OTA's for that new cust, it just means you will likely stop getting the OTA's for your original version.
You can often have some luck changing roms within the same CUST though, so instead of being on a vodafone C432, go to a normal unbranded C432.
I've got a Hauwei p9 Build EVA-L09C346B150
I've found things like the Updater and Firmware Finder but I can't work out what firmware I can download (my carrier is Vodafone Australia and they don't seem to care about updates)
For example I have no idea if I can download firmware with a different "C" number or not. Just want to get onto the latest nougat 7.0 emui 5.0 firmware.
Please help
Hello.
I am new to everything related to Huawei and I have a small doubt please.
I have a Huawei P9 Lite 2017 PRA-LX1 (exactly the same phone and specs as P8 Lite 2017; just a different name used by Huawei for marketing and regional purposes).
I have recently updated the build number through the inbuilt Huawei system update to version B162.
Please note that this was only a 400MB update with very minor changes and it was not a full ROM installation. Please see attached screenshot.
I am going to unlock the bootloader, TWRP and root very soon. I read that on the forum that sometimes people have to flash the original version of the build number when their phone gets soft or hard bricked in order to recover their phone.
I wanted to download the original build number as safety in case something goes wrong.
I can't remember the build number I had previously to B162.
1. How would I find the original build number I was on when I bought the phone? Only through a factory reset?
2. Is it really necessary the original build number to recover my phone (if needed one day) or another build would work?
Sorry but I find this Huawei updating method rather complicated or confusing.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Factory reset don't work because it will same build that you on now. Perhaps if you install firmware finder you can see previous builds

Thank you for the answer.
I do have Firmware Finder installed but as I mentioned I did not memorise the previous build number so I would not know which one to look for.
I suppose that if I search for build number B162 (my current updated version) it would work in case I need to flash the original version if any problems arise.
Correct me if I am wrong.
Also in relation to my question #2 any idea please?
Thank you so much.

I have honor 4x(different phone, but this part of the phones might be same).
I think FULL firmwares from firmware finder can be flashed in TWRP and in that case you'll only need to worry about getting the firmware which has the same specs as your phone.
TWRP dosen't do any version checking so you don't need to find exactly correct version.
I don't know will this work, but if you get stuck it's good to know.

Yes it is good to know I will be able to flash any version as long as it is for PRA-LX1.
With some other phone brands I had in the past downgrading was out of the question (LG G3 and G4 for example).
Not sure about Huawei in relation to downgrading.
My opinion is that this should be all standardised all across Android anyway and not all different between phone manufacturers.
Thanks for your reply.
basically the only thing you need to look at is C432 in the firmware number

Thanks a lot!
You MAY find your original build number according to your region:
https://mobiletech360.co/huawei-p8-lite-2017-stock-firmwarerom-android-7-nougat-pra-lx1/
But even if you do i doubt that you can revert it back, I had a PRA-LX1C464 which is the region code for Turkey, I wanted to update it through Firmware Finder and successfully did. But it changed my phone' build number to PRA-LX1C432, and I can't revert it back to C464. My phone is single SIM, but the firmware I'm using is dual SIM (wtf huawei? ) . So far so good though, phone works fine.

You need to rebrand your phone aka flash another oeminfo that is related to your device. This will lock your bootloader, so make sure you are on stock EMUI first, flash the new oeminfo (make sure it belongs to your device), go to erecovery and restore your device, this will wipe all your data and download the firmware of the oeminfo you flashed. You can unlock your bootloader afterwards.
Can I install/flash the stock ROM of different build number?(Same model number)
