Hello guys, I read lots of topics about this issue and I would like to explain mine.
I wanted to try Android 7 so I decided to update with B378 firmware.
First of all I got unlocked and rooted phone and I made a huge mistake because I forgot to unroot it before flashing the new firmware.
By the way, I flashed the B378 firmware following the dload method using the *#*#2468579#*#* menu and it worked.
At the first boot I immediately noticed that the phone was missing of all the system apps including camera, calculator, flashlight, keyboard.. and the build number appears to be NRD90M test-keys. The updater menu disappeared as well.
About the keyboard I fixed the problem simply activating it in the settings menu but all the apps were still missing.
I saw I had to flash the B378_update_data_full_hw_eu to restore the apps and here started the odissey.
I couldn't boot the recovery cause it was incompatible with Nougat so after a long search I found the TWRP 3.0.2-N and now it works.
I downloaded the B378_update_data_full_hw_eu.zip package, unzipped it in the dload folder but the hidden menu (*#*#2468579#*#*) isn't there anymore. Nothing happens when I digit that code.
So i tried to boot the phone with vol +, vol -, pwr button pressed and the emui recovery installed the package. Installation was 100% succesful.
The apps are still missing..
What's next step now?
A prerooted device not allows to flash hw/eu. Its your choice, downgrade, or Factory reset + flash the data package with dload.

now my device is unrooted, the hw/eu flashes correctly but I still don't have the apps.
So I could try to wipe and factory reset via recovery and flash again?
Well I think I did worst than before..
I wiped and formatted from recovery and installed again the b378 firmware using vol+ vol- pwr combination (I had to do like this cause the hidden menu doesn't work), the flash was ok 100% succesful.
Before I still have the keyboard because I updated from my previous firmware but now I don't have it as all the other apps.
I tried then to flash the sw/eu, installation succesful 100% but it's the same! No apps, no keyboard, no updater menu....nothing.
What can I do? Format everything again and flash another firmware? Any suggestion? Which one is the best one for android 7?
Hello
I had the same problem. Wrocł the MM 136 and late 182, 360,361,378. I have all the applications and it works perfectly.
Only Downgrade and upgrade can solve it. But dont forget to unlock on b182 if you want root on B378.

Ok, I restored android 6 with emui 4.1.1 all it's working. Build B182.
I wonder if I can flash android 7 without problems
And? Do the update to B378?
Is really necessary pass by B360, 361, etc?
Thanks
Hi, everyone.
I did this to my device and succeeded, so I thought I'd share the procedure with you, if you want to do so, too.
IMPORTANT: I am NOT responsible if you damage your device by following this guide; I am an XDA member like you and I am just sharing a guide that worked for me.
I am assuming you have all the Huawei and ADB drivers installed on your computer and know some basics on how to do these things; if you have no clue where to start, don't risk.
First of all, you need to be in C432B161.
You need to download:
1. This toolkit https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/development/europe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873 and relative package for C432;
2. OEMinfo for C636 you can attached to this post (thank you to the creator);
3. B170 update.app from C636 you can find in this package (1) http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1164/g104/v66846/f1/full/update.zip
4. the firmware package and data files (B361) you can find here
(1) http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1258/g104/v77171/f1/full/update.zip (2)http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...cseas/update_data_full_VNS-L31_hw_spcseas.zip
Procedure
1. Back up all your data because this is going to erase everything from your phone;
2. Open the toolkit, and after installing the package for your device, unlock your bootloader, install TWRP and root your device which you can also do directly from the recovery (the tool is very easy to use and I am not going to be extremely detailed on this one);
3. In the toolkit, change the OEMinfo of your device by selecting the custom.bin and OEMinfo you find in the package attached to this post;
4. Reboot your device by entering the Huawei recovery and do a hard reset/cache clean from there;
5. Insert the update.app file you find in the C636 update package (which is B170) in a folder on your SD you rename "dload" (obviously without the brackets);
6. SD in your device, press the volume keys and power button to upgrade your phone to C636B170... I got an error during this process, but the phone booted and I proceeded regardless;
7. Do the same procedure as before: this time only unlock bootloader and install TWRP recovery by using the toolkit, and in the meantime put the two files to upgrade to B361 in your SD and put it back in the device;
8. Enter TWRP by pressing volume up + power button, install the update package first and then the data files;
9. Do a hard reset from the Huawei recovery you now have, and clean the cache. Reboot;
You are now in C636B360, the Nougat update I find the most stable.
If you want to get rid of the initial booting warning, you can relock your bootloader by doing so:
1. Connect your device to you PC, and from the ADB drivers folder on your hard disk, you open a CMD command (right click on your mouse while holding Shift, then "open command in here" or something similar)
2. Switch off your device, then connect it to USB and immediately switch it on while holding volume down button;
3. In the CMD window, type "fastboot devices" and then Enter to make sure your PC detects the phone;
4. Type oem relock + your bootloader code;
5. The phone will ask you if you want to relock the bootloader;
Done!
Hello
Tuto perfect :good:
thank you

No, you need to install it from the recovery because there is not just one update.app file, it's a package with many files in it. You need to do it from TWRP please

The localization. C432 is Europe, C636 is from another country. In terms of features and performance, there is no difference except C636 has been upgraded to a pretty stable version of Nougat and you can have it on your device..

I have a problem. After installing B361 on select wifi, normal keyboard doens't show, only voice. And it seems it can't skip forward.

You did not flash the additional data package, so you don't have all the files. You have to unlock the bootloader, flash revolution recovery for nougat since you don't have TWRP anymore (it's been replaced by stock nougat one) and try to flash those files manually. I cannot guarantee the results because I find that recovery really unuseful to say the least (my opinion). If you don't succeed, flash the oeminfo for MM you find on htcmania, and revert to MM with stock firmware and 3 buttons method

Everything works, and very well.
So, as it's working well on european devices, which are the differences between c432 and c636? If they are quite similar, why didn't Huawei release a c432b361 version?
I'm not understanding Huawei's approach...

Nobody is. I personally believe it's all marketing strategies. They want us to buy new phones and there are plenty on their way.

Go to TWRP & Do Factory Reset (Do not Delete Your System) than Shut Down Your Phone & Flash Your Stock System via dload
Thanks for your answer but this method don't work. Whene I shut down and tried to flash stock rom with dload ( press power button + volume down + volume high ) phone start on the twrp recovery. .!!?
Do you have the USB cable unplugged from the computer when using dload?
No cable connected. But on my sd I have other files with dload file ..that can change something?

It's too late now but at the time when you had your stock ROM and you installed TWRP, you should have made backup of all partitions in TWRP - now, you will just restore stock partitions and voilla.
From FirmwareFinder download b386 build but it MUST BE FullOTA-MF-PV (not the incomplete MF one), and install by DLOD, 3-button boot method. It will hard-reset firmware (but also recovery) to the stock b386

Make sure you press both Volume keys together, and not after you press Power key.
Nevertheless, you can flash stock recovery img (adb/fastboot, same way as flashing TWRP), and you will get rid of TWRP

For the beginning (to obtain bootloader code, to debrand to c432) follow the guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/guide-debranding-to-c432-updating-to-t3551523
However, once you successfully debrand and install c432 b182 (still Marshmallow) do not cotinue by manually installing b361 (the guide is old), rom b182 you will auomatically receive by OTA first b383 ((Nougat) and then b386

Are you already coming from EVA L09 c432, with Nougat? If so, follow instructions
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rom-huawei-p9-magic-rainbow-t3601064
section (4) How to flash Firmware (b386), points 1-17
If you were on EVA l09, c432 but Marshmsllow, you should probably install b182 same way (then you will obtain OTA upgrades to Nougat).
If you are not on c432, you must debrand to c432... or you have to install your corresponding MM or N cXXX firmware.

Hello,
I was trying to install a custom ROM from TWRP to my P8 Lite 2017 and I wiped all partitions except MicroSD.
The installation failed and I got the stock ROM and then I discovered that my bootloader is locked. I can access TWRP and when I flashed the stock ROM the phone just boots to TWRP Recovery. And I can't even unlock the bootloader because the phone doesn‘t have any OS and I can‘t enable OEM unlocking from the system settings. And because I have TWRP, I can’t access Huawei Recovery. So my phone is basically bricked.
Any help will be appreciated

Use dload with a service firmware.
You need to flash this 2 times,once for the firmware and second time for vendor,and the firmware UPDATE.APP can be found in the update_sd.zip and the vendor UPDATE.APP can be found in the PRA-L31 or PRA-L11 folders (most likely you will have PRA-L31,you can find this in the engineering menu by going into the dialer and typing this: *#*#2846579#*#*,and then going to Veneer Informations and Version Info,but since you cannot boot flash PRA-L31 vendor).
http://androidhost.ru/6uc - this is latest firmware,but takes a very very long time to download
https://mega.nz/#F!nwhAWDjC!cNovAN6dKLlO_YZ9fjMbzQ - this is the first official firmware released,but download speed is very good
If you don't know how to use dload you can look it up on forums.
If your phone is really hard bricked and can't do anything, check this out:

I've tried a different firmware for my device and now I can't get to dload anymore so does it mean that I've chosen the wrong firmware? And by the way I read somewhere that if the dload says error it can depend on the microsd card.
I tried it again with the service firmware and I got to dload and it didn't have error anymore and now I've got everything worked and my phone is unbricked

http://androidhost.ru/6uc - this is latest firmware,but takes a very very long time to download
https://mega.nz/#F!nwhAWDjC!cNovAN6dKLlO_YZ9fjMbzQ - this is the first official firmware released,but download speed is very good
If you don't know how to use dload you can look it up on forums.

Hello again, I've been using the older service firmware for few months now and now I decided to install the latest service firmware after I had no success with flashing the firmware through TWRP and I downloaded the service firmware put the necessary files to the dload folder and installed it via the software update in the dialer and typing *#*#2846579#*#* and going to dload that way. It installed to 100% and then when it restarted it goes to Error Mode and it says to update the firmware again but it just loops to error mode and I cannot do anything so I think I accidentally removed some neccessary files in the dload folder but now I would need to fix the error mode loop.
Hi,
I've installed a custom rom, but now i can´t install updates, Pie for example.
How can i unroot and go back to stock rom?
Thanks

I'd suggest HurUpdater: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho...h-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279/page111
OTAs do work with an unlocked bootloader, but not with root or custom kernels.
Does this works with the P10? In the post i ddin´t found the P10.
And if it works, wich zip file i have to choose? And i have root
Thanks
Try my guide (Tutorial #2, Oreo to Oreo)
After that do a factory reset with eRecovery (boot with Vol+ and connected USB).
What also should work is flashing the system.img manually via fastboot.
For this extract the system.img from the correct firmware version with Huawei Update Extractor.
Connect your phone to your PC, boot into fastboot and flash with "fastboot flash system PATH\TO\SYSTEM.IMG".
After that do a factory reset with eRecovery (boot with Vol+ and connected USB).
Note for the next time: backup your system partition via TWRP before flashing the custom rom.
Also note that a factory reset is needed, without your phone won't boot, so backup your personal data before doing it.

Yes, it works on the P10. You can download the files with the firmware finder app. I'd recommend the newest oreo version for your customisation (e.g. B382 for C432).
But Jannomag's solution should work equally well.
Wich Jannomag´s thread?
Do you have the link, please?
Thanks

Possibly you renamed the wrong customisation file (i did it once for the 09 while I needed the 29).
Which one did you download? And did you flash manually or did you use my script?
Download my oeminfo, it's from VTR-L29C432 Version 8.0.0.380, while the version doesn't really matter.
Flash it via TWRP using "Install" and "Use Image". Flash it to oeminfo partition. Then do my update script again.
I followed the guide to do Oreo to Oreo - basically wanting to get from custom Rom (fRomFuture B370) back to stock, so I chose the same firmware version to extract. Flashed everything with the script and it went fine and it boots and works.. but
The resolution seems to be off, too low and the right side of the screen is unresponsive to touch (about 1cm )
EDIT- Rolled back to fRomFuture B370 for now - need to find a way to get back to stock, as want to move on to Openkirin ROM instead
HI, i have a vtr-l29 root, i want to unroot(version oreo), how do i do it? what do i need to flash?. thank you Alex
