How to install beta software without participating in Beta Program?

Hey guys.
I tried some ways to install Beta Firmware starting at L09C432B322 finishing at B360 and all the time dload shows fail.
My previous P9 was registered in Beta program, but after update it got bricked and service replaced it for new defect-free model.
I got it unfortunately at 2nd December and Beta Program was closed...
Now I try to install all ROMs with Nougat Beta and all the time Dload returns "Install Error" depending of update type.
For example: B360 - 5% install failed
B322 - 37% install failed.
I don't want to unlock by bootloader, because it's quite a new phone.
Do you guys maybe have any ideas how can I install beta? I really liked new EMUI 5 and some SystemUI improvements.
If there's any way which will work, please write it down step-by-step. I desperately want Nougat on my P9.
Currently I'm on EVA-L09C432B182
Or.. If it's not possible, I can install it via TWRP. But.. How's the things with relocking bootloader?

I am on the same build L09C432B182, Downloading the beta software returns error at 5%.
I am set as joined inside BETA programme.
so im guessing there is more to this.
hopefully someone knows

L31C432B370 OTA UPDATE Thanks to Prem222

This was posted just now in my thread and is currently downloading an OTA update. I think it deserves its own thread and thanks.
"how to
In Europe, try this :
Open Hicare, update Hicare, agree to terms of system update, download and update to b370 or b 371."
Its a 1.99GB file so presumably complete with data as well

Is your phone a single sim or dual sim? Exact version of firmware?

My phone is twin sim and was C432B160. Can confirm that download complete, reboot and after about 10 seconds of 0% and verify has moved to 62% and verifies again, holds for about 45 seconds and says installing but stays on 62% till it jumps to 98% and then report success. Now rebooted and optimising. More to follow

Confirm success and no data loss. Just going through apps to check. Cannot give enough credit to Prem222 for finding this method.
Dual sim still active

Good! Is the firmware version B370 or B371?

I installed this update without problems, but now bluetooth does not work anymore, I can't even activate it. Does anyone else have this issue?

Its 370

Bluetooth is working.

No updates available.

Some details:
worked for VNS-L31C432B160 > VNS-L31C432B370, (dual sim).
Took a while.
As for 1,5 hour of using everything seems to be working.
Bluetooth - calls and sending attachment ok.
Both sims ok.
Calls ok.
Camera, flash etc ok.
Huawei share works ok.
In the phone manager there is a virus scan ( by Avast).
Thanks goes to SirBeherit from forum.android.com.pl
Looks very fresh

This is not working for VNS - L21C432B336 right?

vns-l31c432b161 to b371 (single sim) in upgrade, thank you man

There is no update on my VNS-L21C432B160... any suggestion?

I have no keyboard (i tried to factory reset but it fail) , what should i do?
Before using this method i installed stock rom so i was unrooted and i had locked bootloader...i can't understand why it happened...
The update size was like 1.25 gb.

I have mm b161 with root and recovery twrp. What should i do to update to nougat 371?

Nope, no updates available (C432, Austria). April fool's?

When I flashed back to 161 from 360, I didn't get the OTA update as well, so I just downloaded the required files and flashed it myself via TWRP (because dload wouldn't accept the files for diff version?). Works well, better than B360.
Here are the versions:
B370 - for VNS-L31C432.
B371 - For VNS-L11C432.
If anyone wants to try flashing themselves, I could link the update and hw_eu files (I also factory reset after install, so all files and apps were gone, though the OTA may possibly not do that, have never tried an OTA).

Link me files please

L31C432...Marshmallow rooted
1.Download Hicare app from Playstore
2.Download B370 trough Hicare
3.Upgraded B370 via Hicare
4,Phone booted to twrp
5.Unpacking B370....
6.Phone booting (new boot image)
7.Optimizing system
8.Phone booted okay...

Anything for VNS-L21?

No wifi/ Bluetooth [Huawei P9 Eva-L19

Currently running : Eva-L19C432B182
Bootloader: Unlocked
Rooted: No
Twrp : 3.0.2-0 Installed, Can't mount anything #Edit: Works suddenly
Available Updates through official ota : Eva-L19C432B210
Tried Solutions : Rollback and Flashing B182 ; Flashing B182 over B182 ;
Can't format device, says Format error
Camera and Sound working
#Edit
I thought it would be better if I explained the problems. So wifi doesn't work, it won't turn on or turns on and instantly back of... Bluetooth is different. It turns on and it sees devices near by, but when I try to connect it turns it self of...
How it happened: I was running a custom rom, los I think, and was watching some YouTube videos. Then I noticed that my smartwatch was connecting and disconnecting all the time and my Video started to buffer every ~30 sec. I noticed that wifi & Bluetooth was turning off and on every 30 sec.
Then I rebooted and after that wifi and Bluetooth was never seen again...

[L09] Trying to update from B182 to B378

I've just rolled back to B182 and would like to update to EMUI 5 B378 which I was on before.
I have firmware finder and know how to use the proxy settings etc, I just don't know which one to choose in order to safely update, (I tried B361 using the proxy method but the update failed).
The Huawei updater says I'm on the newest version, if I need to dload B361 which one do I use? update.zip, update_full or update_full_public?
Thanks

You do it incrementally if you want to be safe. Proxy method requires you to use the older hisuite software and not the latest one.

The next one up (in FirmwareFinder) is B360 but the fullOTA just fails to install both with the dialpad software update and dload method, same issue with B361

Try B383. I had the same issue, and it B383 worked for me.

Thanks for the replies
I've just tried 383 and it gets to 14% and then fails , I emailed huawei who said "wipe your cache partition and factory reset" which did nothing and I contacted huawei livechat through the hicare app who said "you just have to wait for OTA updates, cause they're rolled out in batches".
I have a feeling that I'm going to be stuck with marshmallow (which I can deal with I guess), as nothing seems to want to work for me it's a strange and fickle world for Huawei updates it seems, what works for some doesn't for others

It's strange. Once I got to C432 through rebranding I had to reboot and factory reset several times and try all different versions of Nougat until I finally got it working.

Stucked in 8.0.0.046 (04VT)

Hello guys, as the tittle says my Huawei P10 ( VTR-L09) is stucked in that version (8.0.0.046 (04VT)), this occurred when I tried to update from Nougat to Oreo and after that I get the previusly oreo version metionated.
I want to update to the last version of Oreo for Huawei P10... so for this reason I try tutorials like "update oreo to oreo" and "rollback oreo to nougat (to update again after that)"
and in all the cases when I try to install the files with TWRP i get the same error... "MD5 file not found, skipping MD5 file" (I already checked the TWRP options) and after that the installation starts, stuck in 6% and send me an error message... and everything still in the same place....
I'm writing this thread because I have searched in all the web with no success... and i just want update to the newest version of Android my phone...
I will aprecciate sincerely all your advices to solve this problem that is freaking me out since 3 weeks ago...
PS: I'm Spanish speaker, so if you want you can write any help in Spanish.
THANKS

Hi,
I have the same problem, I have VTR-L09 8.0.0.046 (04VT). I've been reading another post and I found the solution of Rebranding. I have not tested yet because I cant find the correct TWRP for Oreo that allows me to do a backup of my oeminfo just in case.
Did you find another solution?
