Hello,
I have rooted, installed roms on some other phones, but not on P7 yet. After quick look around this forum, i am lacking some definite answers. Can someone help me?
1. It seems P7 does not have good working CyanogenMod. Am i mistaken?
2. Do i understand correctly that bootloaders are unlocked in newer versions?
3. What custom recovery is stable+working? Is this one prefered choice?
[RECOVERY][Huawei P7][Unofficial TWRP Recovery 3.0.0-0]
4. What is prefered rom to install? Is it stock one, and if so, is there any guide how to update it to the latest good version?
In short, can someone show me good procedure to install good recovery and rom?
Thank you.

Your right
I prefer stock Rom but if you are rooted you could install xposed (working for P7/android L since a few months)
Here are a lot of threads how to install xposed correctly.

Hello,
I am a newbie. Recently, I purchased Ascend P7 from China. It came with the chinese EMUI and I was able to change the language setting to English. But still I get notifications and other apps in chinese only. I am not too hung up on keeping the EMUI 3.0. But my main concern is how do I get a complete English version of the operating environment.
What are my options? and if you can share detailed instructions that will be helpful.

Is there anyway to get rid of EMUI and install another one (I see some chatter around an EU firmware 602). If so, how do I un-install the current EMUI? And install the new one?

My phone is a P7-L00. Does it matter? The build number is B608.
Can you pl. tell me if its essential to remove the Huawei EMUI 3.0 from the phone before attempting to install a new ROM?
Hello

My Custom version is : CUSTC34D133SP04

sure .... if the phones are similar i.e single sim
First root your device then make sure bootloader is unlocked
install custom recovery and then install material test rom

thanks for replay
yes it's the same only one single sim
so do you think if i follow the steps in this link it will be ok even if i'm on EMUI 2.3 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/general/cwm-flashable-b609-p7-l10-complete-t3004343
and one last thing do you think it's better if i flash B133 first or just go and upgrade to B609 ?
Good evening all,
I am currently running a P20 Pro (CLT-L09 8.1.0.159(C782)) with Stock EMUI 8 firmware, TWRP recovery and Magisk root.
I am looking for the best way to upgrade to Android Pie (EMUI9).
where do I begin, the huawei app is obviously showing no updates as I am in the UK and apparently a second class citizen!
I have tried the funky huawei method and unfortunately the update fails.
what other method can I use to get to v9 (primarily so I can jump to a custom rom like Lineage
thanks in advance,
Dan.
ps. if I have missed any important info please shout.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...awei-p20-pro-charlotte-l29c432b131-8-t3809964 but use CLT-L09 C782 B168 from firmware finder instead. The Method should be the same
Hi All,
Since this thing is available so cheap, I'm considering buying one.
But I do wonder if it is possible to get rid of the crappy 'Global' rom, by flashing an official China rom and install Play store.
The official China rom has OTA-updates and a complete English language option right?

Hi There.
SrCDA guides are your friend.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=9792389
The unbrick guide is your way to do it, or if you have an 'unmodified' global rom, then the TWRP instalation guide is your way to get TWRP on the phone, and the roms are linked in the unbrick guide.

Is it the same flashing procedure for z5 pro no-GT and z5 pro GT ?
Probably late... However. I got the phone. Flashed the can firmware and locked the bootloader. Perfect. Even a certified device

The 'unmodified' was in parentheses, because there is no such thing, the global rom is a modified and unofficial rom from chinese sellers. So if you rom is a multilanguage ZUI (more then chinese and english) then its a modified version. So if you have a global rom you can use that method.
I'm using Huawei P8 Lite 2017, with Resurrection Remix Custom Rom by Haky86, on Android Nougat.
I was hesitant to upgrade before (2017) because at that time, many phones were bricked trying to upgrade to Oreo.
There were also some Vendor complications (China & Europe) for custom roms in Oreo.
I remember there were Partitions A & B? I didn't know what were those about.
I also still remember a warning to not use the most up to date version of our Stock Oreo Rom for our phone when trying to install the default stock rom for treble support.
I still have my bootloader unlock code, bootloader is unlocked, rooted, I've also watched a YouTube video how to upgrade using TWRP.
All I need now is some assistance with what not to do, some links to point me in the right direction, some info with what I've missed during these years like is TWRP still the main recovery? Or something I should take note of.
Up? Anybody?
Re-up. I really just need some opinions, feedbacks or experiences really. Someone to chat with would be nice in this thread.

This one? HuRUpdater 0.4: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-hurupdater-0-4-flash-official-firmware-in-recovery.3769279/
Is it easier and verified to be safer (no bootloop/bricked device), than the second guide below?
Do I have to rebrand first my oeminfo to "AL00C/AL00X/TL10C B220"?
I was gonna follow this guide: https://www.xda-developers.com/huaw...e-android-oreo-update-project-treble-support/

Wait, nevermind. I remember that it was only necessary since those versions were the only ones with Oreo updates before.
But now, PRA-LX2 has an Oreo update already, so it's not necessary to rebrand
Thanks, now I feel brave to upgrade.
I'll follow this guide by Fr0nK: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-emui8-and-treble-rom-on-p8-lite-2017.3773216/

yeah, that's the correct topic. I cannot guarantee any tool, use at your own risk.
I use it on pra-la1 and can confirm that workers. use suitable twrp and read the instructions.
