Change vendor/country info?

Hi all, i have a P9 L19 C185 vendor/country info middle east/africa and want to change to EU C432. Since there is no stock firmware out for L19 EU version i want to ask if it is possible to change the region if i take it from the L09 version and flash the vendor.img file or root the phone and change the oem file?

this link is for the EVA-L09 not the L19 so I don't think it will work

Change country code with ios Apple
Hi There,
I read several posts. I just bought a chinese version Huawei P9
Manufacture info: EVA-TL00VN2
Bootloader Version:: EVA-C00B198_Fastboot
CP Version: 21.210.03.01.031 (balong)
), but live in The Netherlands and require English. At present the "Google" app is not working properly. It sincs Calandar and Mail, but it refuses to sync contacts.
I am totally new on software changes etc. I try to understand, but need step-for-step instructions.
I also believe that the Chinese google apk restricts the phone doing certain things due to Chinese laws. (is this a realistic assumption).
I tried downloading SRK-file from other thread, but this is software for Windows and I have a Mac.
Is there a SRK-program (or similar) to operate from IOS.
Please help.
P.s.: Is country code is not an issue to my problem according to you, please advise.
I have restored factory settings several times and started over with installation.
I have checked all possible boxes in Phone and on Google account to allow sites / software to be installed from non-verified partners.
I have been able to download European Google Playstore and all related apps....however...contacts do not sync.
Even though I have changed languages in several locations on phone to English, Chinese signs keep popping up (i.e. homescreen). Rest is English.
Does anyone no the "Verification Key" for the special code under "Veneer Code" (youtube.com/watch?v=oipKvS_n--A&index=47&list=PLeiJwJY5dlmjhw2MEVYMsDvuiuIlphUv1[/url])
Thanks for your cooperation.

Huawei P9 Firmware

Hi,
I have the Huawei P9 EVA-L09C671B138, I am looking for an updated firmware.
any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

Your customization is C671,you dont install FW L09C432B182 without change oeminfo. First you must change oeminfo and custom.bin from C671 to C432 using SRK Tools. And then flash FW L09C432B182.

Thanks for the quick response, can you please elaborate regarding SRK tools. Do I need to root or flash anything or just use the tool to edit the 2 files you referred to.

????

You must first unlock bootloader and root. Then use SRK tool.

Thank You
I have managed to complete this and update to B182 :good:
How to update to Android 7? Which FW is correct and the link

It seems there are updates bu I'm stuck on B170

Hello,
I have a PRA-LX1 C432 unbranded and the updater keep saying I have the latest official update B170.
Using HFF we can see B181, 183 and 191 for C432 model. But... making a system dump of these builds we can see that there is in build.prop "generic_15" as phone model...
So I didn't install anything...
- Are the builds from HFF trustables ??
- Is there a way to force the update?
thanks!

But there are more than one build 181, do you know which one you installed ?
your device name continues to be PRA-LX1 or moved to "generic_15" ?
Anything consistent in this update ?
thanks

Problem is that HFF gives a list of something like 5 packages Full OTA for PRA-LX1C432...
Don´t know the diferences between packages ...

Any instructions how to flash with ff?

Can I change from LLD-AL10 to LLD-L31 on a Honor 9 Lite?

Hi All,
I'm new here so please let me know if I've posted incorrectly.
I have a second hand Honor 9 Lite that I would like to use here in the UK.
It has LLD-AL10 (Build 9.1.0.130) EMUI 9.1.0 Android 9.
I think the 'firmware' I need for European is LLD-L31.
Firstly is it possible to change these base operating systems from one country/region to another please?
Secondly if it's possible and can be done ... how do I do it please?
It's a given to me handset with not data to worry about, factory reset unlocked handset.
It looks very nice and I didn't want to give up on it because I can not get the play store and standard gmail apps.
Many thanks in advance.

I think to know if anyone has ever done this is my starting point.
i.e. is it possible to do?
Thanks

Yes, it is. You need :
1. downgrade to Oreo via HiSuite (process will erase all your data!)
2. unlock bootloader on your phone (you must downgrade to lower build number with google security patch from 04.2018.)
3. download fullOTA-MF Oreo firmware for region C432 from Firmware Finder
4. rebrand your device to C432 using tool "HWOTA8_LLD"
https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/help/rebrand-honor-9-lite-chinese-frimware-t3739762/page3
Or, after bootloader unlocking, root your phone and simly flash Open-GAPPS via TWRP. (a simpler solution, IMO).

Thank you so very much, I really want to use this so I am going to try your suggestion very soon.
I'm going to try hard to understand these individual steps, there is nothing on the phone to worry about so that's a start. Hopefully I can find a way following your kind suggestion.
Many thanks

I've completed the first part after connecting through HiSuite and downgrading to AL10 8.0.0.189(C00)
Does the process cost? i.e. do I need to buy credits in these stages please?
Next is unlocking the boot loader and the lower build number with that 04.2018 security patch somehow?
Many thanks

Next is downgrading to the lower build number, You need to buy credits . You can try two firmware only, LLD-AL10 8.0.0.100(C00) or LLD-AL10 8.0.0.171(C00).
8.0.0.171 contains Google patch from 05.2018, but it's worth a try...

remove custom branding

@SilviuO
Sorry to be a pain, but do you know which firmware i would use to get rid of the custom branding for this phone? I tried to download one from firmware finder because it will test if it its approved for your device, the download is only 1 of the three files that i was getting from easy-firmware.com

Hi m8,
The firmware from Firmware Finder is the OTA one like the one HiSuite or eRecovery uses when makimg an update.
As for customisation, you can't use other cust firmware on your cust because you will get softbricked (ex. flashing international C432 on Canadian C792).

That method allows users to flash a VOG-L09 firmware on a VOG-L04 device, but you will mess up your cust and in order to get certified on Google or revert back to your cust, you will need a newer than VOG-L09 flashed firmware VOG-L04 dload firmware ?
