Help please - Huawei P9 Questions & Answers

Hey guys, how can I update my phone to android 7? Ive been looking on here for my model and can't seem to find any info if mine supports the custom ROMs for 7, not new to ROMs etc but new to huawei, model is EVA- Lo9 c40b190? Does it matter as long as it's Eva Lo9? Thanks.

You pretty much got 3 choices.
1. Debrand and change it to a C432 and then update it to B361 (Android 7).
2. Wait for Android 7 to be officially released for your model.
3. If C40 already have a Android 7 build, then you can do a force update via dload or Huawei updater.

About Huawei P7-L11 EMUI 3.0

Hi
i purchased p7 while ago and then while i search in the internet i find that there is many models of p7 and mine was p7-l11 and it's australian model but i'm not from australia
so this model seems that it doesn't receive any updates and it's still on EMUI 2.3 and probably will not get lolipop update also
is there a way to make it like global model (p7-l10 ) by install another ROM or something ? so it can receive the updates normally
thanks and sorry for my english.

Official Update to Android 7.0 for C900?

Hi
I bought a new P9 via amazon-in germany and now have a P9 from Poland...the Build nr. was wrong an the method with*#*#2846579#*#* says : Vendor Country : PL ..it had a Branding and some Apps from a PL provider....So i installed the full official Rom from Huawei Official Page via *#*#2846579#*#*
Problem now: Got the C900 Build and want to get official updates without loosing the warranty..and without using the oeminfo change×bootloader and srk tool
Is there an easy way to manually update or to get the OTA update to Android 7.0 nearly official? Maybe with HiCare?
the only way you have is to wait. or.. change your oeminfo, but if you don't want to do that - wait
So the only disadvantage is no OTA update....the firmware will be available later and i have to do that ?☺☺ good news thx!

Can I change firmware from Chininese to European

Hi There,
I bought Huawei P9 plus in china in Dec 16, model no: VIE-AL10. I continually update the Chinese firmware on it, when the phone requests a new one is available. However I get fed up that there are still some features I can't access as I don't understand chinese and also I don't have a chinese registered mobile no. to access some of the Huawei faciilities.
Can I change the firmware to a European version? and if so how do I go about this. I'm not very savvy when it comes to mobiles so a simple step by step process would be appreciated . What are the main differences between the two firmwares which you think I will benefit from?
thanks
andy
On XDA, 'support' for P9 Plus is much less than for P9 (there are procedures to debrand P9 and install EU cust c432, wherefrom you can install custom ROMs for P9, etc).
If you google for e.g. XDA VIE-AL10, you can find some threads about installing TWRP and rooting the Chinese P9 Plus, you may further ask there
TG, I have P9 EVA-L09 which is best 'supported' (with L19)

upgrading from 4.4.2 to 5.1.1: which rom /version can I use?

My wife has a Huawei Ascend P7 which is still on 4.4.2 with no update available in the update section.
She now encounters problems apps cannot be run/installed because her OS is to old. I found that there a loads of 5.1.1 roms available for the P7 and contacted the Huawei support in the Netherlands. They asked me the build number and after I send them the build number, I now got the answer that there is no update available and that it is unknown when the update will come.
As 5.1.1 is not like it is released yesterday, I can expect the update will never come.
I am now wondering: is there any stock 5.1.1 update I can flash onto her P7 to get it to 5.1.1?
The build is P7-L10V100R001C00B623, the custom version is CustC432D001.
And is there any rom which has dutch language support?
I found this page with loads of P7 5.1.1 updates, but cannot see which I could install on her device:
http://huawei-firmware.com/phone-lis...-p7/sophia-l10
Which 5.1.1 update could I install?
edit: I received another reply from Huawei stating that "unfortunately your telephone model does not support this update, for now there will come no update".
how could my phone "not suppport" 5.1.1 lollipop?
Huawei Ascend P7 Sophia-L10 5.1.1 B852 1.25GB
You need this one but some people say there are lot of bugs in Lollipop with Ascend P7 in general.
.
Most stable is B853 but it is for Asian market, so you have to how why to change CUST number.
You have to unlock bootloader with dc-unlocker and make root.
I do not have Lollipop but I am not sure if its best option. There is an option with Lineage 13 (Android 6.0) for this phone.
In fact there seem to be problems with getting back to earlier Android.
She now encounters problems apps cannot be run/installed because her OS is to old.

Click to collapse
You can find many many similar apps on alternative markets to install them alone as .apk You dont have to you Google Store with such old Android. I got 4.4 and it takes some time to find suitable app but it is possible

Possible to raise the Android version above 9 on Nokia 8 TA-1004 without root?

Hi everyone. i searched the forum but did not find any suitable information, i hope i did not miss anything.
I have a Nokia 8, Model: TA-1004 (Dual SIM), running the latest known stock update to me Android 9 00WW_5_15G_SP04.
I have some company SW on the phone which starts to make a fuzz about the to old Android version (9) so i have to either buy a new phone or update the current one. Problem is that my company does not allow any rooted devices. Is there any chance to update it to a newer version of Android without root?
Does anybody know? The phone is otherwise great and it would be a bugger having to buy a new one just because of this.
Best regards and thanks a bunch for any possible help here.

You can put Android 12 Pixel Experience on it, default is unrooted. But ofcourse you need to unlock the bootloader.
Thanks for your reply. Now that sounds interesting. I will have to check how that is done. Have not done that before.
Have you got a link for that rom somewhere?
Regards
Basicly all is covered here: https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/NB1/install/
Nokia Bootloader Unlock Took doesn't work anymore but you can still unlock using this guide: https://www.techmesto.com/guide-unlock-bootloader-nokia-android-phones/
After bootloader unlock you can install T-Virus, it includes PixelExperience Android 12, then just take OTA to latest version.
