Whats the latest build # for Huawei P10 VTR-L29?

I just want to confirm i have the latest building number. I have a European model using it in Canada so maybe the updates arent pushing to the phone? Im currently on VTR-L29C636B120

Last for your model and market version is 162
http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/?firmware_model=vtr-L29C636&firmware_page=0

I have stock VTR-L29 model, BL locked and b151 is the latest for me.
It lools like we need to wait for some time until new update is available through OTA

For anyone looking to update to L09C432B162 the latest on Firmware Finder, I can confirm I just did it and updated with no problems via proxy. I choose the FullOTA-MF version.
The responsiveness and transition between screens is so much faster than my previous version (B113) that I would recommend everyone to make the jump if you can.

No, if you use Firmware Finder app (download from Google Play store), you can use the official update functionality in your phone settings to get the update.
It tricks Huawei servers that your phone is ready for upgrade to this firmware version. So you are downloading the official firmware file from Huawei, and it should install like a normal OTA update. No data loss, no settings loss.

Yes but you must use Proxy method. This ist the only was it Works for me .Another Thing is, IT will only Works when Firmware Finder dass that this Update is approved for installation
Sent from my VTR-L09 using XDA Free mobile app

Question: Is there a way to downgrade from latest update to the previous one without root? I'm on a mobile data plan with my network and rooting the phone will compromise my warranty if in case anything goes wrong.

I recently saw a vtr-l29c432b171 OTA update but couldn't find it anymore or any link online.

sorry my fault..i updated to 164 with the full firmware package from the site i mentioned, andf then after first boot i got OTA to 171.

When updating using Firmware Finder FullOTA (in-app proxy), do you need to be fully unrooted (stock kernel and recovery) for this to work?
Asking, because I plan to try this update method from B165 to B172 on my VTR-L29C185 and wondering if this process keeps the user data intact or it means a full reset later regardless ... can anyone confirm user data can be preserved with in-app proxy method? Does the BootLoader stay unlocked too?
EDIT:
all went well as per update itself via in-app proxy detection method ... however had to use FullOTA package to successfully install it and that I think re-locked the bootloader, oh well, at least it worked fine

Exactly the same for me - VTR-L29C432B151 shows as the latest one.

for L09C432 is the latest B201, for L29C432171 according this site pro-teammt.ru.
But hte update is rolled out on very strange key...some countries have it, some operators don´t .... don´t know. So i always download the latest for my phone L29C432 and flash it trough HWOTA.

How to get the Beta "Update" on your Note 9 U1.

So I bought my note 9 three weeks ago, it was ATT carrier branded, since I don't need/like any carrier bloat, I just flashed the unlocked firmware to it, until today its working with no problems at all.
So today I learned that the One UI beta came out, I log on my Samsung+ app I got the banner and hit register but nothing... it will simply send me back to the start, probably because i'm offshore who knows. well I started looking around tried with a VPN, tried spoofing my location, clear cache, clear data ( did this multiple times ) but it will simply not let me join the beta.
So I keep on looking and I find this website https://firmware.science/ it will allow you to download the OTA file and flash it using recovery mode!
Sure I wont get the otas automatically on my phone, but I can simply download then again and flash then as they come out.
I hope this helps anyone like that just wanted to install the latest software!
Note!:
This doesn't mean that your are part of the beta, but means that you will have the beta software on your phone!

Does doing that wipe my device? Or do I get to keep my stuff?

I wanted to add this for anyone who kept tapping the register button but was simply returned to the banner like nothing happened.
If this is happening and you dont get a toast msg saying "thank you for your support of the One UI Beta" and no OTA follows, try deleting the (beta) Samsung + app data, rebooting and try again.
I tried all day before doing this and got the OTA 5 mins after wiping app data.

Nope, its a regular update so no need to wipe anything
Already try my apps and games (fortnite, arena of valor) and they work perfect!

Tried everything, to be honest I was just sure that the Samsung+ app would check where you are in the world and if your not on the US it will simply not let you join the beta, the method above worked flawlessly for me!, I'm running One UI at the moment with the dark theme and its awesome!

Keep in mind that this Beta Update its just for the unlocked firmware, if you want to flash the update you need to first flash this firmware: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note9/SM-N960U1/XAA/download/N960U1UES1ARJ9/244752/
After that you will be able to flash the Beta Update

Yes, I did. No data loss.

I flashed the same zrkp from firmware. Science on my us unlocked note 9 with arj9 firmware. It did a full factory reset. I would have done so anyway as I always do with major updates.
Working flawlessly so far.
Edit: 2 exceptions found. Themes are not working and cannot connect to my gear s3. Android wear watch works as expected.

Question what happens when you go into settings an click on Software update does it do anything..Just curious..I have the ATT variant an I'm planning on flashing the Unlocked Firmware..

I would not know, I guess we need to wait until beta 2 update and see, probably won't be getting it and we will need to download the new OTA and flash again on recovery

Ok. First of all. Green and gold till I'm dead and cold.
Second of all, if you flash the U1 firmware and sign up for the beta, then you'll get OTAs automatically through settings.
If you flash the U1 firmware and can't get into the beta program, you can download the update.zip from firmware.science. You will have the official beta build, but you won't get updates through settings, because you aren't part of the beta program.

When I run Odin soon as I goto add the AP file Odin freezes an says not responding..I'm useing Windows 10 on my laptop..Any ideas??Also I have put the correct files in odin but it fails Everytime.. I do the BL an the AP an the CP an then for the CSC I use the Home CsC is that correct then hit start??I can't get it to work at all..do I put any file in USERDATA slot???

That is normal. Just wait. It will eventually load the AP file. If you're flashing the U1 firmware, there is no Userdata file, so you don't use that slot.
Make sure you are using the modified version of ODIN 3.13.1 and run it as an administrator. There are links to it on XDA. Or if you go to the main beta thread there's links to it in the thread.
Just put the files in their respective slots. BL in BL, AP in AP, etc...
CSC_OYN performs a factory reset. HOME_CSC does not wipe the phone. I always use CSC_OYN when switching from carrier firmware to U1 firmware or vice versa, but it's up to you.
After everything is all loaded up in ODIN, put your phone in download mode. Power off. Then hold power, Bixby, and volume down button all at the same time until it boots to a blue-green screen. Then press volume up to continue.
Plug your phone into your computer and hit start. Then sit back and wait. This will take a while.
That's all the steps. If you have any issues, I encourage you to use the search bar on the forum. These steps and solutions to any issues you may run into have been posted many times in several threads. The search bar is your friend and should always be the first thing you do before posting questions.

I'm assuming since I installed the Firmware then the Beta One Samsung + app won't open..then if I click on the Samsung Members app it says Beta but everything i click on say I'm not registered for the Beta..is that because I manually install the Beta update file..So basically Everytime a new beta version comes out I'm going to have to manually install it..

N960U AT&T USERDATA Links and Flashing Discussion

For those who aren't already aware, N960U is the model number of all of the US carrier versions of the Note 9. The N960U1 is the model number of the same device, but sold by Samsung SIM unlocked and with no carrier bloatware. Firmware is 100% interchangeable among these models: any U or U1 firmware version can be flashed to any U or U1 device at any time, assuming that you're not trying to downgrade the bootloader. A "U to U" or "U1 to U1" flash does not require a factory reset, but changing from one firmware to the other will require one. Also, U firmware is identical for the 4 base files (AP, BL, CP, CSC) for each individual build, no matter which carrier it comes from. So if you download 2 different carrier versions of the exact same build, the 4 base files will be identical. Where the firmware differs is in the USERDATA file - that's where the carrier bloatware and customizations reside.
Manual Odin flashing is designed for those who:
- want to manually update to a newer version of U firmware on their U device, either because they don't want to wait for their carrier's OTA or because OTAs aren't working on their device, or a different carrier got a new feature/patch before they did
- want to flash U1 firmware to their U device
- want to convert from U1 firmware to carrier U firmware
- want to convert from one carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware) to a different carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware)
For those who aren't already aware, anyone can now download firmware for almost any Samsung device any time that they want, via the various firmware download tools posted here on XDA like SamFirm or Frija. There are threads and info about them here on XDA so I won't waste time explaining - do a search if you're not already familiar with these tools. But they only provide whatever the latest/newest/current version is - nothing older. I pay for a subscription to a site that gets the official releases (usually) before they hit the firmware download tools, so that's where my files come from.
This is not a "beginner's guide to Odin flashing" -type post/thread, so I won't list basic, step-by-step flashing instructions. My threads are geared towards those who already know what they're doing. If you're new to manually flashing Samsung firmware (or haven't done it in a long time), I recommend you consult one of those "beginner's" guides- there are tons of them here on XDA.
Happy flashing!
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=282951
Notes:
- DON'T QUOTE THE OP WHEN YOU REPLY, kthx
- I have lots of threads just like this one for other Samsung flagships, if it interests you. For those who have already made use of my previous threads for a different device and are upgrading to a Note 9, welcome back
- My zips are compressed extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
- it's quite time consuming to download the files, zip them up, and upload them to AFH. And, I do threads like this for every single Sx and Note x model, so I won't be uploading every single version. The only full builds that I upload are ones where I get access to a new bootloader and/or Android version early, before they hit the firmware download tools.
- My naming method for folders on AFH is: build - bootloader - Android version
So "SAT - 1 - 9.0" means the full build number ends in SAT, it's bootloader version 1, and it's Android 9.0. When bootloader and Android versions increment, the first build to have those changes will have its folder notated appropriately.
- HOME CSC file keeps data intact; using the other CSC will wipe data. Flashing USERDATA will also wipe data.
- Since AT&T doesn't allow their firmware to be publicly available (for any of their devices), I'll try to always upload at least one USERDATA per bootloader increment for AT&T (and Cricket, if they get this model). I'll also upload any full builds if AT&T is the only carrier to get that specific build, because you won't be able to find the files anywhere else.
- For identifying USERDATAS, and to know what region/CSC to use in the firmware download tools if you're downloading yourself:
AIO = Cricket (not available via firmware download tools)
ATT = AT&T (not available via firmware download tools)
BST = Boost Mobile
CCT = Xfinity Mobile (Comcast)
CHA = Spectrum Mobile (Charter)
DSH = Dish Network
SPR = Sprint
TMB = T-Mobile
TMK = Metro PCS
USC = US Cellular
VZW = Verizon (available via firmware download tools, but Manual Entry is required - Auto will not work)
XAA = U1 firmware
- the correct procedure for switching from one carrier's firmware to another carrier's firmware is:
1. Flash full U1 firmware package including non HOME CSC
2. Upon boot, insert a SIM of the carrier whose firmware you want
3. Watch for the popup that says "reboot to apply new carrier settings" etc, and do it
4. After that restart completes, reboot back to Download mode and flash the full U firmware package, with the USERDATA file of the carrier whose firmware you want

I'm currently on N960USQS2CSGB with my phone being on AT&T's network. Originally it was a Verizon note 9 and I swapped the SIM card. I then flashed the unlocked firmware to it to try to get VoLTE to work, but that didn't work so I flashed N960USQS2CSGA to the phone in hopes that I could get AT&T's firmware working. If I'm understanding correctly the USERDATA is where all the AT&T specific software and code is, so I'm wondering if I flash just the USERDATA, could I get the AT&T specific features to work. I got the OTA update to N960USQS2CSGB but that didn't fix the issue.

Thanks! I guess I'll be buying a new phone then, because I'm missing calls. The phone has to drop down from LTE to make or receive a call and it takes several seconds. I've had people call me and it ring all the way through before my phone steps down. When I make a call it takes about 10-15 seconds before it rings out. Oh well, I appreciate your help and quick replies!

Before you buy a new phone, try flashing the latest AT&T update from here along with the user data from this thread if that download doesn't contain it. (It should). I'm trying to download to verify but it's only downloading at 1 MB/s for me.

Worth a shot if the next step is an entirely new phone.

These are used for converting from one carrier's U firmware to AT&T's, or from U1 firmware back to U firmware with AT&T features and bloat. I know these are much tougher to find than other carriers' files - they can't be obtained from SamFirm or SamMobile. So I'll be uploading at least one for each bootloader version. Firmware is universal on U models so you can use the other 4 Odin files from any other firmware of the same build. Can probably even mix and match builds (as long as the Android version is the same), if you can't find files for the exact same build. Can't mix and match bootloaders though, so the other 4 files have to at least be from the same bootloader.
- I remove the .md5 from each file solely for faster flashing (Odin won't check the hash without it). Rest assured, the files are perfectly fine and safe - Odin has a million safechecks built in.
- My naming method for AFH folders is: build - bootloader - Android version.
So "SAT - 1 - 9.0" means the full build number ends in SAT, it's bootloader version 1, and it's Android 9.0. When bootloader and Android versions increment, the first build to have those changes will have its folder notated appropriately.
- USERDATAs for any other CSCs can be gotten from SamFirm - for the latest version. If you need an old USERDATA for a CSC that's not commonly found on SamMobile (ACG, LRA, TFN, etc), let me know and I can probably get it.

Do you ha e the user data for SGB-2? I saw that you have SGA-2. Interchangeable? Or if they are not, do you have SGB-2?

Noob question but if I do flash the N960USQU2CSGA firmware for AT&T with the USERDATA provided here, I should be good for my unlocked Note 9 which is on N960U1UES2CSF9 right?
Also I would be able to get future updates OTA since I have an AT&T sim, right?
Thanks!

Just a note, if you are in the us, Google voice offers native wifi calling, if you really need it. I've always had a Google voice number that I use and give out as opposed to my usual mobile number, so it works really well for me.

Please Help!!!
I have the samsung galaxy note 9 F/DS what file would I need to flash to make my phone an at&t phone. I really want the wifi calling and enhanced messaging features. I recently got an OTA update that allowed me to be able to do volte calls but still no video calling wifi calling or enhanced messaging. Please help.

No may update for Singapore model still?

Its been a month now and I haven't got any update I'm still on ASD5. If It's only me who haven't got the update then please let me know what to do now. I want to update without losing data via odin.and I haven't touched my bootloader or tried to root.

I believe even the latest update for May patch has been pulled out due to several issues reported.

I bought this phone today.. is iy possibly the reason to nog getting may update at all. I updated for the first time today

No, some regions never got the may update which has actually been fortunate. The may update has been withdrawn due to issues.
I'm in Australia and it didn't get released. https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2019/05/relax-samsungs-big-s10-bug-wont-affect-aussies/

I've already updated to ASE6 firmware.. Using samfirm download the OXM ASE6 firmware from any region which have this and extract the zip files.. Put the respective files using odin and use the home_csc to flash to phone.. You won't loose any data or files in your phone and will have the latest firmware...

Just wait like most everyone else does. It doesn't go out to everyone at the same time. It's not always best to be first.

It's quite sad but I know singapore is very slow at receiving samsung firmware updates...

Indonesia region still doesn't have it yet...

Downgrade from Android12 possible?

I didnt spot the message about losing GearVR and now having upgraded my GearVR is not functional. It says I cannot go back but... this is XDA so, can i ??
Also not sure if I can re-install the Oculus GearVR app (can't see it on PlayStore) so does anyone know which APKs I need to install as well?

on my s10+ i get se same Issue. According official samsung information, it seems that gear VR do not run on android 12. I did not find any solution for now.

Sorry don't know anything about gearVR, but no, if the bootloader version has increased, which I believe it does when going to A12, then you can't downgrade.
I'm pretty sure there is no xda 'work'a'round' for that, haven't seen one and everything I've read indicates not possible. Do some searching I guess to be positive, but one prereq to bootloader unlock is being on a specific BL version, and even their directions indicate if you're above that version, nothing you can do.
cheers

Thanks for replying... I guess I am boned

I successfuly reverted to Android 11 G975XXSEFUJ2 from Android 12 since I saw issue about GearVR...IF you are on first release of A12 you can downgrade.
Flash all A11 stock firmware package and choose CSC instead Home_csc !

You have the S10+, from what I see, the most recent BL version is 6 on both a11 and the new a12, so that fits the requirements.
It looks like for at least some of the S10 firmware upgrades, the BL version changes, thus u cannot go back if that's the case. Not all A12 updates are out for the S10, so we don't know yet if the BL version will change for them.

Yes.I think they left compatible downgradable bootloader for those users who didn't saw info about GearVR support as a last chance to revert.
I presume,as we learned from previous updates, in future releases of A12 downgrade will not be possible because of their privacy paranoia.

I have the S10 and from what I can tell the BL version is also 6 on my A12 update.
Does this mean I can just use odin to load a "compatible downgradable bootloader" and I will be able to downgrade back to 11? Does my phone have to be unlocked to do this?
Assuming I back up all my data, will I be able to go back to 11 without compromising my xfinity number, security, ect.? I am simply looking for the best way to just revert back to 11 and reload everything I was using before.

Well as far as I know you can, but that's from what I've read, not from doing the exact scenario you speak of. Sometimes we just have to try it to know for sure. I have read for sure the if the BL isn't the same version, you can't go back. And no, the phone does not have to be unlocked.
good luck

Thank you for your help!
I figured the most recent update of A11 from
Galaxy Firmware - Samsung Galaxy S10 SM-G973U (CHA) | G973USQU6GUJ3
This Firmware flash for Samsung Galaxy S10 with the Phone Model Number SM-G973U for region 🇺🇸 United States with CSC code CHA and R(Android 11) OS.
galaxyfirmware.com
is what I would need.
The Baseband I have from A12 currently is G973USQU6HULD, so from what was said here the BL ver. 6 means I should be able to do it.
Model #, Country, region/carrier from the above link all match my specs. So if I'm to understand correctly all I should have to do is backup and then use the firmware with odin to flash to my device using tin2404's procedure from above? (Flash all A11 stock firmware package and choose CSC instead of Home_csc !)

Doesn't choosing CSC clear all the app data and basically factory reset it? Wouldn't I want to use Home_CSC, or does it not then work properly?

Update:
Successfully used odin to revert to os11, had to factory reset after odin completed, then I just reloaded my backup.
After more research I decided to block all future updates using ADB and this method:
No more headaches with my software!

Actually, it is neccessery to choose clear CSC to erase leftovers..Choosing Home_CSC brings various of errors possible.
Workaround is doing TWRP backup on SD Card then after clear flashing restoring ONLY data partition.
