Hi! I have the China specific EVA-AL10 version of the Huawei P9. The phone works perfectly in India, although the stock browser , voice command and some other apps work only in Chinese. It doesn't even recognise a Huawei watch brought in the US. I know this phone, same version is available in the US and Europe. I am sure their must b other firmware too..can anyone please suggest a solution...I think k a different ...more open firmware is needed
I am in the same situation. I didn't flash a new rom. I just changed the default app, such as message, browser, etc.
You can user google launcher, which gives you the classic UI, and you can set the voice assistant as google now, so that you can use "Okay Google" to voice control it. Just that the original Chinese voice assistant is still there, just ignore it.
Can't change the default Launcher...what's the workaround

Go to Apps -> Advanced (at the bottom) -> Default App Settings
You can change the launcher and other system apps there.
I can't use google playstore in my china bought huawei P9. If you restore it works for a while then after sometime its just says downloading but can't. Further downloaded apps from play store also can't update. Pls help, do i need to change the global firmware?
I just have my EVA-AL10, waiting for the BL to be unlocked,

Just a heads up about the BL unlock. The code I got from Huawei website did not work for me. I got an error message that the password was wrong when I entered unlock command. I got a code from DC unlocker ($4 euors. Which was different from the Huawei site) and it worked for me.
Converting to from AL10 to L19 was very beneficial to me. I have no issues so far.

When you debrand it from Al10 to L19 the Chinese stuff will go away.

according to willMyPhoneWork site,
EVA-L19 (Global Dual SIM version) 4G LTE: Band4-AWS, Band7-2600MHz
the L19 is not fully compatible with my mobile provider,
EVA-AL10 (China, Dual SIM version) 4G LTE: Band17-700MHz, Band4-AWS, Band2-1900MHz, Band7-2600MHz
EVA-L09 (Global Single SIM version)4G LTE: Band17-700MHz, Band4-AWS, Band2-1900MHz, Band7-2600MHz
EVA-L29 (Global Dual SIM version) 4G LTE: Band17-700MHz, Band4-AWS, Band2-1900MHz, Band7-2600MHz
if I flash my AL10 to L19, is that means I can't use LTE?
can any one let me know ?
thanks,
I don't have any issues with LTE after debranding my AL10 to L19. I use dual sim set up with ATT and Tmobile in United States and it works fine. Just keep in mind that only one sim can be LTE and the other will have to be 2G.
thanks for your clarification,
I plan to use only 1 SIM card + MicroSD

Hi HIEPXHOP,
I have EVA-AL10C00B386, EMUI V. 5.0, Android 7.0
I want to flash it to L19, I have a few questions
1. do I need to unlocked the bootloader?
2. do I need to go back to MarshMallow(i found the guide is basic on MM)?
thanks,

Yes you will need to unlock the bootloader. You need to go back to MM if you want to debrand with the SRK tool. SRK tool has oeminfo for L19C636 and L19185.
Initially, I debranded my AL10 to L19C636 (asia). I had to downgrade to MM and used SRK tool. But I was not able to get OTA to latest Nougat.
So I debranded again, but this time to L19C432 (SRK tool only has oeminfo for L09C432, but not L19C432). I followed this guide from Tecalote to do it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72153575&postcount=2.
It does not use the SRKtool, so you will have to do must of the steps manually. Be sure to follow it EXACTLY.
I hope this helps.

I have the Eva-al10 and would like to get rid off the chinese letters and download attachments problems.
Could someone post a step by step process to change it to L19 ( for android dummies like myself)?
I suggest debranding your device
I just debranded my EVA-AL10 to EVA-L09 (european version) and everything is working fine but it wasn't easy 99% of instructions (even on this forum) didn't work because they are based on Android 6 and if you already have Android 7 you have to find solution by yourself. When I have enough time I'll write it on this forum because I didn't find even one working "step by step" instruction "How to change chinese soft on AL-10 to european"

How you make the debrand ?
Hello, I've searched around but so far I haven't found any serious clue on which firmware should I use to perfectly switch from single to dual sim.
Is there a list of the latest dual Sim firmwares available?
As for the IMEI issue it seems that I'll just need to use HCU and copy the first IMEI number to the second IMEI number slot.
Thanks in advance.
Upon further researches, I found this very rich topic.

Basically, I'll have to flash my phone from a C109 firmware to C432 firmware.
Can I just use their latest update.zip C432B175 from my C109B120 ??
i have a huawei P10 VTR-L09 (canada) and just got EMUI 8.0. My device is treble compatible and i would like to flash Android 8.1 GSI on my device. However there is one issue: the unlock code website does not offer the canada to unlock the bootloader. Is there any way to unlock the bootloader so i can install aosp 8.1 via fastboot?
Thanks
Which model do you have? VTR-L09CXXX...
Try to select USA or another country if your device isn't branded by the provider.
Hi. I have a mate 10 pro. Originally it was a branded bla-l09 mono sim. I, with funk Huawei, turned it in l29 dual sim. Now I have the need to turn it again in l09 and I think to do this with hwota8 (to save my money). This tool does not touch the mono/dual sim functionality. Doing this, there is a chance that it remains dual sim?
Thanks

Yes, because FH tool flashes an included (and disguised) oeminfo that is dual-sim. The included oeminfo changes your imei, imei2 and sn while in fastboot. Which in turn has also changed your bootloader unlock code.
HWOTA8 will only edit oeminfo to L09 but you will still technically be dualsim. I'm not sure how that will work on L09 firmware though. However, when you flash oeminfo you will have to unlock again, which will be impossible if you don't have your new unlock code (Acquired after you rebranded using FH).
What firmware are you on now?
Starting with BLA-L29C432B145 (The Night Shot update, so might already apply to all cust that has the new Night shot firmware) you can no longer get an unlock code from DC/HCU.

Yes I have a unlock code got after debranding with dc unlocker. Now I am in c432b148-sp1 (xloader 01).
ok i do all.
the situation is this: dual sim works! But in the settings, isn't any option to activate/deactivate sim1/sim2.
If i remove sim 2, It looks like a normal mono sim.
If i can manage it with a third part app... it was fantastic!

If it was sold as single SIM (L09), you cannot 'transform' (by changing firmware) to dual SIM (L29), because there are hardware differences.
For any flashing (changing cust for stock firmware, custom ROM, rooting, TWRP) you have to buy Bootloader code and unlock Bootloader (it is possible but the code is costly)

They are expensive. I'm also waiting for their answer (people say they answer from time to time, they depend on an insider, when he is able...):
https://imei.by/delivery
Ministry can also do it, little cheaper (40$) but you will need to open back cover and connect Testpoint pins. Minister will need Team Viewer remote access to your PC. I guess (didn't go for, waiting if I can buy from the first above) he will low-level flash an old Oreo, where from it was possible to generate BL code. Then he would, IMO, update back to Pie. Guy told me the operation might take an hour or two:
https://ministryofsolutions.com/paid-services/amp
I was also told that those can provide the code but for ridiculously high price (you can ask them):
https://funkyhuawei.club/
Finally, don't use them, they only unlock BL for one-time (and high price) you don't get the code:

Exactly for VTR-L09 or some other Huawei model (it's not the same)
A year ago I played for a week and rebranded EVA-L09 to L19, tried a lot but it never became dual SIM.
To the other side, similar rebranding to dual SIM model worked fine and straightforward for P9 Lite
Edit: You could have provide a link to spread info and help the community (if single SIM P10 can be really rebranded to dual SIM)
This is what i got with MT tool
Can i install one of those updates and if ok how can i perform it
Thank's
