EVA-L09 version number - Huawei P9 Questions & Answers

Hi guys!
2 weeks ago I received an update with this number:
EVA-L09C900B191
But awkard things started like:
Bloatware from a French carrier and I'm from Portugal with a unlocked version
Everytime I search for this version number at Google,nothing seems to exist, not even a changelog
And the "themes store" is totally gone and I only can use the themes that I already had.
Someone has the same version? Its just to know If I am the only one with this "problem"
Thanks!

Hello!
Same problem here. From Portugal with this update and also having problem with theme store. Can't access to it.
Regarding the bloatware I think that I have that problem since I bough this phone.
I hope that nougat fixes this problem.

each time you have this problem, or every time you se a "C900", it means, that your p9 had a software modification, its not that bad, but if you want updates you will have to do them manually, and the themes you can download them and install them on the HWTHEMES folder on your phone,

Really? Didn't knew that. Always learning, thanks
Anyway I sent a email to Huawei assistance reporting this issue.

Hi there.
I was thinking about that C900 version and I searched a way to change that version:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/how-to-change-cust-c900-c432-t3392824
After this tutorial I already have de nougat update through HiCare App.
Thanks for the help that I needed to resolve this issue

b170/b183/b194/b199/b200/b550/b551/b560 to Marshmallow via HICARE

hello, few days ago there was update from germany via hicare app, now I have changed region to german and it working very well. Update steps:
1 upgrade hicare application to newest version.
Run APP - >>Accept terms. ->> choose europe (if there is no update still choose germany) -->> OS upgrade early adopters
u'r welcome

That was how they provided MM for everyone and it is not new information. However b550/b551/b560 are MM builds.
I disagree totally with Azaradel this WAS new information to me and I thank kiamikadze for sharing it.
Really don't know why everyone is ignoring this thread!
It is the easiest way to upgrade to Marshmallow.
No worries about doing something wrong as it comes straight from the Huawei servers.
No worries about which version you are currently running.
I'm happy that for everyone that has heard about that method, the update appeared within seconds. However, I changed already to many languages in the HiCare app and even downloaded the HiCare update from the market to do this "OS Upgrade". The EMUI updater instead still says: "No updates". I'm on B194 with a Swiss SIM. Maybe having the right right IMEI is important? Someone has a clue? I want to update the official way, not via a forced method.
Thanks, my phone is in the Asia pacific region, with location set to Australia. I am also able to get MM update with the help of post. The trick is to opt in for OS upgrade early adopters
Wow, thanks. Upgraded to 6.0. No regional change was needed though

Apparently huawei said they can upgrade your phone if you call them as you have the correct build for upgrade. Huawei said this when I rang them. Ring them and ask them to push upgrade from their side through hicare.
I tried with ale-l21c432b188 and didnt work :/
never knew that lol, thanks for the share.

Install EMUI 5 on EVA L09C521B140

As the title says, how can I install the android 7 OTA on my P9 EVA L09C521B140? In the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rom-stock-rom-eva-l19c636b168-t3419586
I saw that the OTA for NXT-L09C521B140, it serves me the same? In what changes?
Thank you very much
I'm interested in this as well. I'm assuming you're interested in unbranding your phone as I am? Got it from a carrier, right?
If you find out anything regarding this please do let me know.

That post is old and it hasnt been updated it ages, if you want to know the latest firmware for your C521, best to download an app called Firmware Finder and check in there, B361 is the official released Android 7 firmware.

Hi, thanks for replying.
This is only the second day I have this new phone. I got it from my carrier so it has their brand at boot, the crappy bloatware they tend to put etc.
What I would like to do (at least until the devs manage to release a stable CM version for the phone) I'd like to get the OFFICIAL stock rom (unbranded, like bought from a store)
Could you point me somewhere where I could find how to do it, where to start etc? I'm all for learning myself but a start-point would be nice.
If I'm not mistaken, the model is EVA-L09 so C521 would be the variant? and B140 the firmware version, correct? And what's with the "cust" version at the bottom? carriers firmware?
Also, I've been reading and apparently NOUGAT is still in beta for these phones? So I guess I'd like to update to latest MM, and then update whenever they decide to release OTA.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT* TL;DR, Basically, I want to unbrand the phone. Remove my carriers bloatware. Just like a store bought phone.

If you look through the guide section of this forum, you will find what you been looking for. If you are looking at debranding and getting on to Nougat, you can follow this guide. Also, Nougat (EMUI 5.0) is now being officially rolling out but at a very slow pace.

Question about remove brand

Hi all,
First, thanks for the usefull information i found here.
I have a Pra-lx1 with brand, and till now there are no sign of update since initial release.
Is possible to debrand this device?
At the moment i don't care about root, so a stock c432 is what i seek.
Many thanks
Any chance you own TIM Italy branded one, cause i am still waiting for the first update?

Thanks for the info, glad to hear it's finally rolling out. Just hope it won't hit any region limitation cause i've read somewhere you need to have right SIM card for branded phone just to see OTA or something similar.

For unbranded also, just have your regional SIM card inserted and you should get the update.
EDIT: If you use TIM branded one in Belgrade you will need SIM from that region to receive OTA.

314 MB large in my case, no difference AFAIK. Also, change log is quite generic:" This update improves system security with Google security patches".

Rog 2 can't update

It's been a few months after buying the ROG 2 and I updated to Android 10. Now I've got another update but can't seem to download it regardless using mobile data or wifi. Is there something I should check before updating? Didn't have any issues upgrading to android 10 but the I'm stuck at the next update. Just keep getting the error " System Update failed. Your device has reverted to it's original configuration."
Hi, same here! (Italy)
I posted this https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/help/phone-modified-firmware-t4135801.
As I wrote in the post, I sent a mail to Asus, they asked for build number details and they said my phone has a "custom firmware" I installed (???? never done that) voiding warranty. So they'll fix it but as out of warranty.
In that post you can check the build infos I've right now. Are they the same as yours?

Same here. Bought in May, auto updated (via FOTA) in June (from Android 9 to 10), and this is the second update. I don't know what to say. I hope someone else could find a solution.
Same problem, same versions of the system. Unfortunately I also contacted asus and they told me the same thing ... I hope they have not taken away the guarantee.
Do you guys have the Tencent version of the phone? If so, that could be the reason Asus says it's been modified. A lot of third party retailers will still the cheaper Tencent version with modified global ROM installed.

Pretty sure I'm not using the tencent version
Anyways found a possible fix
Download the zip file from the Asus page and manually update in your phone. It will fix the issue

I was chatting with Asus support and they directed me to the asus page to download the update and update manually in the phone. While I was updating the zip file I noticed the FOTA update running alongside of it and I was able to update it. Hope this works for you.

Thank you, same here. They directed me to this file https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/..._I001_1-ASUS-17.0240.2007.27-1.1.204-user.zip
but since I insisted that I had not installed any custom firmware, they replied "the version you reported is not among the firmware files but in the Open Source section, this does not mean that you have installed an unofficial firmware" so no invalidation of the warranty.
Anyway ... the only firmware that was installed on my phone, was downloaded through FOTA ...

Could be due to the Android 10 update, prior to that everything was smooth sailing and issue free

Question Need advice for the G998U/DS and living in France

Hi guys,
I need advice for the s21 Ultra that i bought on Rakuten. In the description the seller said it was an international/US version and at this time I didn't know that it could cause problems knowing that I live in France. I have the G998U/DS version
For now the phone is working perfectly. I don't have all the problem i can see in other thread like the broken GPS, a poor network, wallet broken etc. Everithing is ok.
But i need advice for the last update with Android 13. Actually i get the Android 12. And of course the phone does not offer me any updates. I know this is because i have a US version and i live in France.
So question 1 : Do you think I will eventually get the update in the future ?
Question 2 : If I install the update by flashing the phone, won't I have all the problems that others have with this us version and living in France ?
Thanks for your support fox.

Hi,
If everything is working out of the box, then you shouldn't worry much. It's always better to install the update via OTA. It doesn't matter where you live/use the device, as long as there's an update for your device (Snapdragron chipset and CSC), it should automatically show up. If you want to install the update manually, then it's better to download the official update via Frija and install the update via Odin.
Hi,
Thanks a lot for your answer. It help me a lot.
About the update, i read everywhere that where we live/use the device is impact the update. For now i don't have any update that show up. I am in Android 12 and i should have the android 13 update.
Lot of people said that i probably never had the update because it's an import us version and live in France.
What about that ? Do you thinks i will get the update in the future ?
Thanks again
It seems you are on a March update. I have a feeling your device's was a locked device which was then unlocked...I could be wrong through...https://samfrew.com/model/SM-G998U/ Here's what I could pull up regarding your device's update. You need to careful on which file you download as I don't see any OXM ROMs for US devices...they are provided by carriers.
Ok,
I think in my case, update will not be possible. I'll stay in Andoird 12 until next phone. Never buy again in Rakuten ahah.
Thanks for all your help.

Just try and not working but that was a good idea
When i chek on Frija, he give me this :
What do you think about this update ?
Edit : this firmware contains these files
If you are sure of the CSC, go ahead. The reason is yours is not OXM rom so you have to be extremely careful when choosing the files.

Ok, thanks, i think i'll do the update.
To be sure, you mention a OXM ROM but i can see that i have o OYN rom like you see in this screen :
I really can't place the device's region. There's no region called GCF in Samfrew. I feel it's a subset of another region. Dunno
Finally I did not dare to flash my phone, I am too afraid that I can not use it anymore
Anyway, thank you very much for your help
