Single Sim to Dual Sim - Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello guys,
i know from the P8 and some other phones, that the Dual Sim is just in Software locked from the operator!
So now the question, how about the P9P?
I could get the P9P from tmobile, but i need a Dual Sim Phone (now i have the OP3) cause of business!
Anyone already have some information?
Thanks mates!

Hi,
I am trying to get confirmations on whether the dual sim model bootloader is indeed unlockable or if there is some sort of country restriction.

New Huawei standard ROM + New SIM TRAY

Hey guys!
I got a whole New P9, EVA- L09. SIM Tray design is only for one SIM, and one MIcroSD.
My problem is, that I need dualSIM!!!
Is it possible to get a new ROM which is designed for EVA-L19, and then try to buy an SIM tray where I can insert 2 SIM CARDS?
Would it work?
Huawei Denmark says, that there is different ROMS, and I need to get a new ROM.
Please help!
ro.dual.sim.phone=true
I'm not a Dev but that's from the eva-l09 build.prop.

this is not possible as the phones hardware itself is one nano sim and 1 micro sd card. changing the rom and sim tray will only brake a perfectly good phone
next time i would suggest checking this detail before buying the phone
Try to get official dual SIM version. Even the Chinese version works.

P9 EVA-AL10 Unlocking from China Telecom

Hi Guys,
I recently picked up the Huawei EVA-AL10 versus the EVA-AL00, because of the fact it uses more bands. However, I can't get past the fact that it only accepts SIM cards from China Telecom. I have followed the guide about unlocking the bootloader and Sim Unlock, but the phone is already unlocked for SIM and bootloader. Am I missing something, should I be paying for an unlock code or something?
I am looking to use this phone in the USA and I've seen a few guys get it working. I appreciate any help you guys can give me.
EVA-AL10 is unlocked for any SIM.... Works with no problems.

That's what I thought but it gives me this message when inserting my Sprint SIM:
"The Phone is compatible with China Telecom cards only. Please insert a China Telecom card."
Strange - only EVA-CL00 is China Telecom version...
I checked on "frequencycheck. com", Sprint is out of luck for EVA-AL10, most other carriers in the states are compatible tho...
any SUBJ suggestion for now?!
Pls... knock me to pm if any solution is possible?
For Huawei P9 AL-10 model, here is the band compatibility list in the United States:
https://www.frequencycheck.com/comp...dition-dual-sim-td-lte-eva-al10/united-states
If one of the band does not show in the list, there is a chance that the phone won't work with that carrier.

P9 EVA-AL10 - Sim lock help!

So I purchased the Huawei P9 EVA-AL10 4GB edition. I was told that this version has the most LTE bands and would be able to work with US carriers. When I try and put my Sim card in I get the message that says only China Telecom sims can be used. Is there a way around this? I know in the EVA-AL09 that any Sim will work. Please help as I now have a beautiful but useless device.
Thank you

Convert P20 pro from single to dual sim

Hi all,
Is it possible to force flash the dual SIM ROM on the single SIM phone? Obviously assuming I can get the bootloader unlocked and without using the funky Huawei tool as it costs money as far as I understand.
Also if possible will then the phone receive rom updates via OTA?
Thanks
You can email them in the UK and they will give you a bootloader unlock code [email protected]
normal dual sim have 2 diferent IMEI , conversion via FunkyHuawei you get only one imei with 2 sim

thanks, having a single IMEI shouldn't be a problem as long as the two SIMs are hosted on different networks. (at least this is my interpretation).
Would an adaptation of this method work?

Effectively if we can change the oem info file to match the dual sim version then we should be able to flash the dual SIM firmware, right?
I see in another thread even if you do it the dual sim adapter doesnt fit in the single sim variant.

Hi all, any news on this ? just see here https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...de-how-to-root-debrand-remove-retail-t3788326 that THERE IS NO HW POSSIBILITY TO CHANGE SINGLE TO DUAL SIM, SO EVEN IF YOU GO FROM L-09 TO L-29 THERE WILL BE NO DUAL SIM!!! NOT EVEN IF YOU PAY TO FUNKY
what is the reality ? I wrote to funky because on their site they say not usable with Emui 8.0.1 and I have a CLT-L09 8.1.0.128 (C432) fw installed - emui 8.1.0 Android 8.1.0, waiting for an answer:fingers-crossed:

CLT-L09 has same hardware as CLT-L29 can be converted to dual sim with FHP20SingleToDual, no problem.
CLT-L04 has different hardware and can't be converted to dual sim.

But once changed, where can I get the dual tray from? Any links from anyone who has done this mod? I'm sure I read that the official dual tray will not fit. Thanks.

Oh. Thank you. Emailed Huawei about getting unlock code for bootloader but nothing. Should I call them, or am I too late? I'm in the UK.

I already get unlock code bootloader.
Call them to official line huawei uk. 2 days delivery to your email.
It is clear and no problem to get code. Now I think what to do with rebranding process...

Not true. One IMEI can manage two sim. You find The problem is in that countries where there is a sim-lock, like USA and Cina. This because IMEI is locked by operator. In Europe there aren't that problems !

Not true. But maybe you wrong understand. In first period there was no sim tray holder for P20 pro and someone (like me ) tested the sim tray holder of Mate 10 Pro. This works for both sim but it is too longer.
Now you can find the original sim tray holder of P20 Pro both from Huawei assistance and also from international resellers ( find it with google, like ali....)

I wrote many time in that thread : the RED sentence it isn't true ! With funkyhuawei method you can rebrand a CLT-L09 with single sim in a CLT-L29 fully working dual sim ! And I say this because I done this with my P20 Pro ! And many other poeple (for verified direct experience 5 people, but much more they said they did it). So I don't think that only few specimens of P20 Pro have a different hardware !!
I can say that all P20 pro have the same Hardware : both CLT-L09 and CLT-L29.
For your Last ask I must say that Maybe you read wrong because funky made specific tools for P20 Pro with EMUI 8.x.x . That info do you read is specific for older phone, like Honor or Mate

Did you read the rest of the thread? You didn't need to say he/she is wrong. That was from May and later people updated in June saying they did verify the dual SIM tray fit and works. Perhaps it was too early then that not many people knew and later discovered solution.

Excuse me. Sorry. I used words that are too strong.
My fault.
I do not read last two posts before mine.
My fault.
The first post I don't read say: "Oh. Thank you..."
The second say:"Call them to official line huawei uk...."
Too much interesting too loose.
My fault.

Just wondering if there has been any progress on this? I have rebranded from CLT-L09 to CLT-L29 and have purchased the official dual sim tray but the second sim will not get detected
Would rather not use the FunkyHuawei tool as it perma-locks the phone.
*Bump* - Can anyone please advise? I'd really like to convert my L09 to L29 to enable the second sim. I really don't want to use the funky method, due to serial change and bootloader re-lock etc.
Many thanks for your help.
