CRR-L09 and CRR-UL00 - any difference?

Hi, just got mine Mate S, Chinese market model(UL00).
*ttp://s013.radikal.ru/i322/1509/ef/204602070f19.png
Is there any difference in models and can I flash firmware for European version on to mine phone becouse I don't want to deal with all these 50 chinese apps
Thanks!
PS I'm switching from LG G3 and Meizu MX4 Pro, so just first impression after 4 hours of tests:
1) fingerprint works amaizing, much better than Meizu.
2) the phone body is very solid and looks nice
3) sounds quialilty is good but Meizu is better, which was expected.

You find something because i interest to

Ok I have a weird question. Mine is the CR-UL00 version. It has Google play as default and no Chinese bloat. Firmware is B110 what version do I have?

Dual SIM
In the Gsmarena specs page it says that dual SIM is optional. Does anybody know which one of the two models is dual SIM?

I think it means it's optional in the sense that you can either run dual sim or one sim and a micro sd card. One of the slots act as either. I know that's how it is with the UL00 version.

Maybe you're right, although I interpret from Huawei's web page that the L09 version might have a single SIM (the GSM network specs for the UL00 shows 2 cards and the L09 only one?).

Only the CRR-UL00/64GB version is dual sim (maby the 128GB version will be to when it comes). Optional referes to that you can either have sim + sdcard og sim + sim configuration, as one slot doubles as sdcard and sim slot.

Hi,
Could you please tell me wheter is possible or not to install an european verson of android on CRR-UL00?
Is it is, can you please explean me how i can do it?
Thank you very much!

Hi,
I too have just taken delivery of a Chinese sourced CRR-UL00 and would like to know if and how it can be flashed to a European or International version in order to remove the Chinese oriented 'stuff'? I have removed a lot of the Chinese Apps manually, but would be a bonus to build as a non Chinese version.
Othewise early impressions are favourable of a very well built and good looking device... loving the rear mounted fingerprint reader.​

Any news? I have seen somting about twrp and a kernel released but i really don't know how to root this phone!

Hi all,
I am about to order the CRR-UL00 DUAL SIM. However I have some questions as this isn't an European version.
Will I get support from HUAWEI when it is broke? I am not sure about this. Asked it Huawei, but they didn't respond.
Secondly what OS languages are available? Would for instance English and Dutch be available on it or other keyboard layouts like AZERTY? Can somebody confirm this?
What about the Chinese apps? Can you delete them? Or if not, put them all into a folder to deny them?
Are there other things on this Asian model in which I can run into trouble after purchase?
Kind regards

If you by this means if you will get EU warranty from Huawei, then no you should not expect that. You would have to ship it back for repair or pay to get it done localy at your own expence.

About any language is avalible on the stock firmware, Dutch and English is included. Keyboard layouts too, or you can simply download a keyboard from Google Play.

You can delete most of them, and deactivate the few apps that cannot be uninstalled.

Google Service is important for China mobiles, as they are not pre-installed in China. On Huawei Mate S CRR-UL00 the will not be installed, but you can download them from the Huawei App Store "HiApp". They work without problems for me on my CRR-UL00.

Thanks a lot for your answers! Strange as I can purchase the P8 Premium Gold Edition through Vmart (Huawei) in Belgium. This is a dual sim version with the same version as the Mate S. This is sold with warranty but normally they don't advertise this model in Europe.
Anyway.. I think the Mate S dual Sim is the better choice over the P8 Dual Sim IMO. Any constrains?

Yes it is a bit strange tha Huawei seems to only sell their low spec models in EU - actually a surprise to me that you can get the 64GB P8 here. For the Honor 7 and Mate S I have only seen the 16GB and 32GB models from official stores.
I did not go for the P8. The P8 has no fingerprint reader, also the screen and general build quality is to me superior in the Mate S. The AMOLED screen is really beautiful.

I have mate s ul00
i cant find fun scales app and i cant use force touch

this CRR-UL00 version is nice but has it active dual sim ?

where can I order the right model to use in Canada GSM network ?

Hi there
I am planning to sell my Samsung S7 and replace it with a Huawei P9. Any idea which model I should order to get 4G connections in Canada ?
Please kindly advise ASAP.

First figure out what LTE bands your wireless carrier uses.
Take a look at http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_p9-7972.php for P9 models and the different LTE bands available on each.
As I understand it, you'll probably want the P9 EVA-L09 version. This is a single SIM model with most of the Western LTE bands. According to the specs, this model is the only one that has NFC. So if you want to use NFC for Android Pay, this model is most likely to work with it.
Most of the P9 models currently available to buy now are the Chinese models from what I can see. I would avoid the Chinese models because they lack LTE bands for the US (and Canada I'm guessing) and they are missing NFC.
The P9 EVA-L09 is just now being released in Europe so they'll become more available in the coming months. This is the model I'd look for.

I am using the Chinese EVA-AL10 on Rogers and it shows '4G' in the notification bar above signal strength indicator.

I have only had it a few days but my first impressions are very good. I was using a S6 Edge+ and I am enjoying the smaller size for a change. The form factor and build quality are excellent. I did not use the native EMUI much as I have always used the Nova launcher and customized it to my liking. As for the camera, I cannot comment properly yet as I have not used it enough, especially with regard to low light performance. However the monochrome camera is nice and a real differentiator from other phones.

NO NFC on Chinese Version AL10 P9 Plus

It was mentioned in another post that the Chinese variant of the P9 Plus. I'm making another post just to help others from making the same mistake as I did. I totally bought this phone （AL-10) expecting it to have NFC and was quite disappointed to find out the phone didn't have NFC . I tried to return the phone the next day, but of course, Chinese return policies aren't quite as flexible as North America. I was totally pumped to be able to use Android pay.
I wonder if the phone NFC capable but the Chinese version of EMUI somehow has it disabled at the software level? AL-10)

Thanks! I already read that post. But I was wondering if the NFC is perhaps just disabled on the software level. I know sometimes OEM's can disable phone features at the software level even though the capability may be present in the hardware.
My options at this point are to just tough it out and have no NFC/Android pay, sell the phone and but the international variant, or wait for Huawei to come out with a smartwatch that has NFC and pair it with the phone.

Anyone here with the VIE-AL10 model can tell me the frequencies available on the phone ?
I would like to know from inside the phone itself, where there is the option to activate and use the different frequencies, what is available. I found different specifications on different websites and even the Huawei website does not list the VIE-AL10 . I want to make sure that I will be able to use it in the USA and in Europe as well .
Thank you very much

Wowwwww. I made the same mistake. (side note I also can't seem to get force touch to work). Android pay is sort of a deal breaker for me. Very disappointing the Huawei website didn't seem to indicate this model would not have NFC. I think I might try to resell it. Really lame.

[Q] Unlock Vodafone p10

Hi All
Apologies as this have probably come up loads but i can't get the "reassurance" i need to do it.
Basically i am the proud owner of the p10 via vodfone uk ... i am looking at maybe unlocking the phone (I know this can be done) but the outcome i want is for it to essentially be stock or in other words as if i purchased an unlocked P10 on amazon for example.
The reason for this is i would like quicker access to updates in Europe rather than wait for the carrier to arrange them. The software from vodafone UK doesn't seem to be as smooth as when i see reviews based on unlocked phones ? some micro stuttering in the app draw and chrome seems to run badly. I know some phones shipped with slower onboard storage but mine was a shade under 800 mbs when i checked so all OK on that front.
So once i have unlocked the phone how do i then make the phone as if its a standard unlocked model ... suspect it would involve flashing a new ROM ? I am sticking with Vodafone for now so is an unlock code even needed? could i flash a stock rom other the vodafone software ?
Many thanks in advance

Ok thanks all will take a look

Is there an official Huawei 'pure' unbranded firmware?

New to Huawei and have been farming search engines, but if you feel the need to shoot me down in flames with a link and subsequent "use the search d#$%head" then please feel free, we're all friends here.
I wanna stick to stock firmware while the OTAs are current or at least until I get bored and inevitably ram a throbbing veiny custom build that ROM Jeremy (get it) would be proud of up that sweet tight little USB-C of my P20 Pro.
I have SIM unlocked my EE C782E10R1P9 but I can't sleep easy knowing EE has been behind my back and left its stain inside my firmware. Also, on any factory reset the EE bloatware returns. I read a lot about Three customers also getting annoyed with splash screens on boot etc.
Now here's where you tell me I'm barking up the wrong tree. I've been trying to decipher the firmware numbers. Take C782E10R1P9 as an example of what I think I understand:
C782 = UK
E10 = EE
R1P9 = Unsure as of now although all UK firmware I've seen seem to end in this
Does a pure, as Huawei would have built it, firmware exist without any evidence of carriers/suppliers sticky fingers and what would the 'E10' in the above example be replaced by?
Do your worst...

Rebranding to C432 should give you a clean experience. If you don't have your bootloader unlock code then you have to wait, like the rest of us, for third-party websites like FunkyHuawei to get it since the Huawei ended the support last year. Save up 100E and be patient.
---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 PM ----------
I forgot, in case you don't get it, you need your bootloader unlocked to be able to flash another version.

As above, rebranding and then using stock c432 9.0 or c431/lgrp2 9.1 version firmware is as close as you get to it but you'll still get any network splash screens etc on startup as they're now hardcoded to your handset. Just the firmware won't have all the network specific bloatware.

Makes no difference what firmware you have... soon after you insert EE, Vodafone, O2 simcard phone will want to pull small update which will install some crap related to each network.
I have P20 c782 and P20 Pro c432 they both act identically in this respect.

I guess I'm lucky then. I have no network splashscreen and only network related app I've seen is MyEe and I installed that on my handsets anyway.

Thanks, it's a real shame Huawei have put up such a barrier for the bootloader unlock. I'm coming from HTC10 and HD2 before that for which you just click your heels and they're good to go.

Thankfully I don't have any network splashscreens (that would really p!$$ me off) and only one network related app, but I know EE have done more to this firmware than just added My EE. The main reason I wanted to get on a stock 'unbranded' firmware was to benefit from earlier OTAs.
Thought I'd note I'm with the SMARTY network (UK) who are a new small-time brand operating over the EE network. Perhaps this explains the lack of splashscreen - I don't know.
