Hi Guys,
Firmware finder shows L19C185B361 update but does not install, fails at 38%
Downloads and unpack okay but fails at install!
My P9 is currently on L19C185B210.
Can anybody else try?

you are right... I think, we have to wait for the right firmware....

Okay,
I have played around further with the newest L19C185B361.
Here is what i got so far:
Update through Firmware Finder is at this stage useless! Update will stop at 38% and or 5%
Update through forced update using Dialer *#*#2846579#*#* yields the same result! Stops at 38% and 5%!
Flashing through TWRP works but couple of error messages " unmount /cust failed" and "mount /cust failed"
Phone boots into Nougat but no keyboard on setup so no chance to setup google as speech is useless for setting up
Also shows NRD90M Test Keys as build!
Have to admit so that EMUI 5 looks good
Roll back seems to work with rollback package and full package of L19C185B210....does take a view times til it sticks!
Waiting for official Update over EMUI Updater

Help getting to Nougat from C432B182

Hi all,
I'm trying to upgrade my P9 to the latest software build but I've hit a brick wall. The phone is currently on L09C432B182 software version.
My phone was originally branded to EE (C440), but I followed the guide posted here to debrand it to C432. This was successful and after getting to B136 firmware I then got the updates to B166 and B182 in succession.
I've been using B182 for a couple of months, and all is working fine, but I've now got the urge to try Nougat. The problem is, all of the methods I've tried seem not to work.
- Huawei built in Updater app says no updates available
- Hisuite says no updates available
- Using the "Huawei Updater" via Hisuite/proxy method doesn't work as Hisuite is saying no internet connection (I think the custom ROM URLs are no longer valid)
- Using the Firmware Finder app and proxy add-on method gets me further in that I can download the updates (B360 or B361) in the built in Updater app and the phone will successfully verify them; however in all cases the installation fails at 5% due to "Software update failed! Failed to check the package"
- As a last resort, I tried extracting the update.app files from downloaded firmware, mounting in SD card/dload and then using the Dialer method to install from SD card; this also fails with a "Software update failed!" error
Has anyone had this issue when trying to upgrade from B182 and if so, did you manage to resolve it?
Thanks in advance
Nick

Don't try Nougat the battery life is ****

I tried the hisuite and Huawei updater route and got the no internet connection all the time. I gave up and went back to the firmware finder and tried to download B386 using the proxy method. This came back with failed to download. By random choice I checked the updater app on the phone to download latest full package. This immediately brought up and download the B386 firmware and it installed without a problem with no loss of data. Just to check it wasn't a bit of luck I did the same with the wife's phone and it worked the same way . As for battery life I don't see any problems with it

P20 Pro Does not Update from CLT-L04 8.1.0.107(C792) to ...109

My new P20 Pro (Canadian Telus) is having issues updating to CLT-L04 8.1.0.109(C792) from CLT-L04 8.1.0.107(C792).
The Problem is that the device simply will not update no matter the method.
My device is unrooted at this point.
What Happens.
When going through each of the scenarios,
1) The firmware is downloaded,
2) The phone then boots into firmware installation mode,
3) Firmware supposedly is updated
4) Phone Boots
5) Upon checking in phone status the phone is still on CLT-L04 8.1.0.107(C792)
Methods I have Used to Update
A) OTA Update (result: not updated)
B) Factory reset the device and then trying to OTA Update. (result: not updated)
C) Update via HiSuite (result: not updated)
At this point, I am unsure why this is happening and how I can update to the new firmware.
Any advice or guidance is greatly appreciated!

Did you factory reset? After the last attempt? Is your bootloader unlocked? Have you tried eRevovery?

I have the same issue: new P20 Pro from Koodo (single SIM version), out of the box it prompted me to update, after I did this, I had for example a corrupted Settings app (name was a mix of letters and numbers and same name corruption with Chinese characters within). After this happened I did a factory reset, was back on 107 and was prompted to update again in the morning, which I did. Same outcome as above, after apparently successful installation and restart, I was still on 107 ...

Just got off a chat with Huawei Canada and apparently technicians are aware of the issue and are working on a hot fix that should resolve the update issue.

You issues are very similar to mine.
I also had a corrupted settings app as well (mix of letters and numbers with Chinese characters)
Still no fix for the 107 to 109 update to report on.

So I had a chat session with a rep on Huawei Canada's site, he mentioned that my phone was 'Not Ready' for the update and hence why it was not updating.
I opted into an email notification through the rep for when the update becomes available.
I would recommend anyone else with this issue to bring it up to Huawei Canada and opt into a notification when the issue is resolved.

Well, given the corrupted Settings app that I (and seemingly others) had, I would say that "not ready" is rep speak for "we screwed up, please wait until we fix it" ...

Was delighted to see that CLT-L04 8.1.0.111(C792) showed up as update on my phone this morning and I hit the install button right away. Sadly (and really really annoyingly) the behaviour is the same as with the 109 update: the update seems to work but after restart the Settings app is corrupted and system shows still to be on 107. Immediately after the restart I was told to update to 111 which I tried once more, only to got a "Update couldn't be installed" fail message.
I then downloaded 111 again, wiped the cache partition and tried another installation. This time, the installation happened a lot faster (given the amount of update data, unrealistically fast) and I got the Update success message again. However, upon restart, I was still on 107 - this is pathetic!

Just to add to this story, I had to send my phone in for repair and apparently (according to repair report) the mainboard was replaced?! I am on .111 now and sincerely hope that future updates will perform as intended ...

Why u had to send it to repair?? is it because of the 'Update' not really updating issue? If you got any further solution for this,please let me know. I am also having the same problem.

Has anyone had any success with updates yet? I am still stuck on 107 and it say 114 is ready but always goes back to 107. No updates have installed, had the Telus p20 pro since July .

I haven't had any success yet. This is my last phone from them

p20 pro stuck on firmware (Cant update)

My P20 pro CLT-L29 432 is stuck on 9.0.0.47 and has been for months USB, Hi Suite methods do not work neither has OTG so far bootloader is locked and FRP is locked even after removing google account and resetting the phone
Any Ideas?

I am also stuck on 9.0.0.286 and it doesnt tell me to update from OTA or HISuite..
Also for some reason the update information are missing. It says "no information" instead of " security patch etc"
I also did a factory reset but it didnt help...
Maybe some could give an advice.

Iv asked huawei service yesterday they say that is no problem and update will be made by imei number and I have to wait so I don't know what to believe

no info
patch no information provided

From my observations, if phone is updated through a method other than OTA(Hisuite PC included), there will be no info about update in phone updater. Also, OTA might not work (my phone was stuck on 191 when I bought it second hand, no OTA, but imediately updated to 286 when connected to Hisuite PC. Didn't have update info with 191 and still no info with 286. Never received an OTA this whole time)
Didn't receive OTA for 9.1 and force updated using Firmware finder and modded Hisuite(to 311). Still no info after that.

Today Iv contacted huawei and they've said my serial number is ok and they will push send me the update. Iv tried all methods FF patched hisuit to instal no success.

Tonight received by regular OTA in Austria

I contacted Huawei support via Hicare app (Chat) and told them that I didn't received any OTA update since April security patch this year, the last update I did was via Hisuit from 9.0.0.270 to 9.0.0.286 (which was my/Hisuit mistake because the update was not planned for my device) CLT-L09C432, and I didn't get any OTA since then.
I was told through phone call, after receiving information via Remote Smart Diagnostic, that they have informed the Huawei software development department about the problem, and I should get my update during this week.
I waited till Wednesday but nothing happened, then I backed up all my data via Hisuit, downgraded to 9.0.0270 via Firmware Finder Hisuit (Hacked version ) did a factory reset.
After logging in got notification for 9.0.0.293 did the update successfully, after the update got notification for update to 9.1.0.311, again did updated successfully, and last after the update got notification for update to 9.1.0.328 (August security patch) also installed successfully, and phone is running smoothly.
So who else is stuck on the 9.0.0.286 or older version this might do some trick with updating the phone via OTA eventually.
Have a nice day.
Just my 2 Cents.

i just get "failed to update"

I'm stuck on 311. Asks me to update everyday also at the end it says patched 01. I'm on 9.1 now but I've not noticed any changes from emui 8. Nothing sticks out, nothing has improved. I'm thinking it's not installed the firmware which was around 400mb because it takes less than 1 minute to download then less than a minute to install. Once it's installed, it asks to download and install again, every day for 2 months. I don't have access to a pc anyone help with this? Or how can I install beta 10 emui in the UK

Stuck on EMUI 10.0 on Huawei P30 Pro after 1 year

So I had the phone for almost 2 years, and I realise that I haven't received updates since March 2020. I know that EMUI 11 is out, but I have not gotten an update after EMUI 10.0. I tried using the HiCare method, the HiSuite PC method, but nothing works. I'm currently located in the United States, I don't think it has to do where I am, because I know someone who has EMUI 10.1 or EMUI 11 on their device. What should I do to update the device? I also found out the region code is C636, which is Asia Pacific.

There's a thread on flashing firmware on locked boot loaders. That may be of help.

I would do it, but I think it's too risky.

Been there, done that. Don't worry, I can help for you not to kill the phone like I did on my first attempt .
The dload method works fine. Although, you will need to get the rom for our region from here (this is the latest 10.1 version, you can verify it here) . I recommend going with the OTG adapter + USB memory stick method (it will wipe the data so don't forget to make a backup before proceeding).
I just want to clarify that I haven't been able to upgrade from 10.1 to 11 with any of the methods you have mentioned, not even with HISuite Proxy (there's no dload FW support for EMUI 11). Since I'm a Mac user I had to go with a virtual machine so that could have been the problem though (I read other users have successfully upgraded to 11 once they were on 10.1).
The main reason for me to update the phone was fixing the wireless charging. I've bought a Huawei wireless charger and I'm having this issue (spoilers alert: it doesn't seem to be a software issue so no, still not working).
The process is relatively safe as long as you flash the right firmware. On my first attempt I flashed the firmware from a different region. The phone worked normally except for the device certification (no Netflix, Google Pay, banking apps and so on).
Good luck and just let me know if you have any questions.

Did you succeed to upgrade your device to emui 11? Please share your method if you did

Try to update via Hi Care (it used to be to force an update to Emui 11 before the update came out in the normal "updater")
In HiCare app -> select Your device -> Quic Services -> Update -> click Check for updates
