Hi,
You can use this link to download the rollback package
http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=91623&version=357533&siteCode=se
once you download it.
unzip and put the update.app in the dload folder on your external sdcard in your phone.
you have to manually create this folder in your external sdcard.
once you do this
type
*#*#2846579#*#* in your phone dialer
then you will get a menu
in that select
SD card upgrade
then you wait.
it will reboot and finish rolling back to stock.
Remember this will get you back to stock rom, but you will have to upgrade to some other ROM for your L09 after rolling back.
I do not have Huawei P9 but I have Huawei Mate 8 & Huawei Mediapad M3. I feel that there are lot of similarities between Huawei phones & that is why I feel you can make it work using these steps.
Hope this solves your problem.
For updating to EMUI 5.0
you can use firmware finder from play store.
Install the app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teammt.gmanrainy.huaweifirmwarefinder
in the settings of this firmware finder app
switch on "add on proxy"
now go to your WIFI-settings
tap and hold your WIFI connection
modify network - select manual
there you put the following
proxy is
localhost
port is
8080
that's it save.
then go to firmware finder app
search
download the right firmware for your P9 L09 and then click on "send the firmware to updater"
now
go to settings
update -> you should see the OTA for EMUI 5.0
But don't this now. First you have to rollback and only after that go for this EMUI 5.0 update.
Don't forget. Please click on :good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good:

L09C432B182 FULL firmware file. Found it in another thread. It seems to be working for them.
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1079/g104/v63880/f1/full/update.zip
:good::good:
Did it with that link i tried to post. So what i did was just force flash with dload on my sdcard using that original rom. Thx for the help!
Cannot update from EVA-L09C432B182 to Nougat
Can anyone please help. I'm going round in circles, following guide after guide.
I'm currently running a P9 L09, running EVA-L09C432B182, after rollback
PHONE Unlocked
FRP Unlock
Factory Recovery
I've tried the firmware finder, confirming firmware ok with IMEI. My version for some reason does not have the "send the firmware to updater", and I have configured the proxy, and installed the proxy. I've tried unzipping the downloaded update.zip by firmware finder, and dropping it into the dload folder.
It seems every version I try, its fails at 5%. What am I doing wrong.
Can anyone tell me a system that works to get back to the latest stock nougat.

Have you tried their consumer site? Just download the original, i did so, and the rest will come OTA.
I came from a long way to this point. In this thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/help/bluetooth-issue-vie-l09c25b320-t3548885) you have all the steps that I made but, summarizing, I unlock the bootloader using a official code, I failed flashing the first time so I ended with a NRD90M version with no Bluetooth, no keyboard... I managed to update again using the finnish rollback package for VIE-L09, in this point I ended with a L09C900 and BT working. As everything works it seems that was the moment to flash again to a final version so I access through SRK Tool and change the OEMINFO to the EU one (mine was LA) and flash directly through the 3 buttons mode the full C432B180 (or 181, not sure) but ended with C432B181, wich doesn't receive OTA, so I decided to flah to the final stock rom, the C432B360 version with Nougat. It fails at 63% (more or less). Then I tried with a MM version so I force the update again but this time to the C432B170. And failed. On this point a message saying that my phone is encrypted and that I must access a decryption password appears. So I decided to force it again to the C432B160 and now my phone is stuck in the BOOT screen (the one that warns about that my phone it unlocked with orange letters), does't boot in to Recovery, or ERecovery. The 3 buttons method don't work anymore and the phone doesn't turn off till the battery is drained
I only managed to enter to Fastboot mode and shows that the phone stills unlocked and the FRP too.
What can I do to unbrick my device?? DC Phoenix?? Fatboot flashing BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img??
PLEASE HELP :crying:
Dude.. sorry to hear it!
Maybe a flash of original recovery.img would help? FAstboot works as it should?
If you can get Power+Vol Up/Down to work again, you should rollback with finnish .APP, then flash B181, .. then find the complete guide in this thread

Thanx @deecept for your reply.
Well I think that Fastboot works as it should and I will try as soon as I turn back home to flash RECOVERY.img and I will let you know how it goes.
I'll try again if I could fix the Pwr+VOL Up/Down but I not really sure if it would work.
Dc Phoenix I try it a few weeks ago but with no results. But, in this case, probably it would be the best option. But I want to do it nowing what to do exactly because the last time I spend 23€ for nothing.
I would maybe try to flash the original marshmellow recovery.img, to see if that makes any difference.
Here is some files to aid you.

Hey @deecept, nothing. No changes. Yesterday I flash through fastboot Recovery.img, System.img, Boot.img, cache.img, Cust.img and even Userdata.img. But nothing changes. The device still in a bootloop. I'm thinking to use again DC Unlocker, but I'm not sure exactly what to do? If I need to flash a whole update.app or something else. I don't want to spend the money if im not sure what to do.
Btw, something strange happens in fastboot mode. When I try to erase the cache.img it shows the message that Remote command not allowed. But it let me flash every file that I mention. ¿?¿?
In fastboot mode it shows that Phone is Unlocked and FRP too...
@deecept I finally managed to flash and function L09C432B360 usind DC Phoenix. But I found that, again, I havent the data_full package installed so I dont have AGAIN :crying: neither BT or themes or the update section in adjustments. I want to kill my self.... :cyclops:
How can I add them??
If I use DC Phoenix in which order I must flash the files? I have the file update_data_full_hw_eu. I tried to flash it after flash the update.app of the L09C432B360, but dont work

I downgrade back to C181. Everything was fine. I had my BT, themes, everything... Ok I perform the FF upgrade (changing advanced proxy settings and everything). Go to FF, send the ROM to the updater, in the updater I select full package and start upgrading. The device perform the upgrade weirdly fast (3 or 4 mins maximum), and restart and perform a System optimization. When it stops, restart again and susrprise! I have AGAIN NRD90M Test-keys! How is this even possible @Mostar088???

Yes. I selected that one.
I'm trying to repeat all the process again. I just flash via DC Phoenix B181 again without problem via fastboot but again (previously I dont mentioned it) when performing the second step in DC Phoenix, the upgrade mode flash, fails writing the VERLIST.img.
The firs time that I did it also fails but as I restart and everything works fine I forgot it.
Do you think it could affect to the FF process??
Should I continue redoing again everything??
Thx again @Mostar088. It's being a very long and boring process.

Dont know if it affects the FF, i realy dont know what can be wrong.
U have 72h to use Dc Phoenix so try again.
Try flash a MM with a lower build like B170 or 161 and see if u recive OTA to update B181 just to see if that works before u proceed to upgrade N.
Edit: when u downgrade try update by dload method from B170 to B180 and then if u recive OTA for B181.

Nothing. Again bricked. This time DC Phoenix either can't flash. Still having an error when writing VERLIST.img. No matter which version. I tried B170 and B160.
I read in DC Unlocker forum that a way to fix the VERLIST.img flash fail in upgrade mode is trying to repeat flashing using the dload mode. But it also fails.
Really I think I'm cursed... I'll try to go to the very first step. I'll change oeminfo to the original one (LA) and there I'll try to downgrade. I don't know what else to do

Did you know where I can find a LA oeminfo?? Because in SRT Toolkit just appears Chinese, Euro, African and Asia.
¡¡¡YESSS!! FINALLY. I MADE IT!!!
VIE-L09C432B360 Working properly with Bluetooth, Themes, Apps and all the great stuff from a Huawei Stock version!
I have two theories about why I was failing over and over after flashing B181 and updating to higher versions:
1. Phone was updated properly but as soon as it synchronize with google, something doesn't match with the ner version and end in NRD90M Test-Keys. So previously to the last update, after flashing with DC Unlocker (to exit the bootloop), I go to my google account Device Manager and delete the previous VIE-L09 that I have registered.
2. The other theory was that, all the times that I flash and update I allways was with the bootloader unlocked. This time, after flashing the B181 version y relock the bootloader.
One of this steps help me finally made the update:
I will wrote a thread trying to explain how I did it and adding the files that I use.
I wanna thank @Masters_2017, @CNHowardLai, @deecept and specially @Mostar088, @M.KK for their selfless help for nearly a month.
Best regards!
Help i'm stuck
Hey @Kifivierito! can u help me? i'm stuck with your same problem. Ok i was on C900B174 (or173, yes a global one) then i've tried to update to C432B360, but i've got the "test key version" without the keyboard, (NRD90M Test-keys).
So, i rollback to MM with a package, and i got the C900 version again. Through an update i went on Nougat C900 version without many things that were missing (like the updater app). I go back again to MM and this time i've changed the oem file to C432, then, first i unlocked my bootloader and i rooted sucessfully my phone, installing TWPR recovery too. I would come back to stock with a C432B103 version to lock bootIoader and restore. i've decided to download w "firmware finder" the full rom version C432B360 u installed,following all the instructions, but i cannot install it (i think 'cause of my stupid modifications xD ). Now i'm tring to go stock w C432B181, hoping that the bootloader will be locked again. Idk really what should i do now, i'm really getting frustrated.
Pls help me!
EDIT: Ok this one works great C432B181, now i'm scared to update xD

Hey @dr.feelgoodthedj,
sorry for the late reply. Well that last edit of your post are good news. If you have C432B181 running without problem now you only have to follow the steps tu upgrade via FFinder with the FF Proxy settings. If you follow step by step the guide, you will end up with your P9 Plus with Android 7 and everything working.
If you perform it and fail again, don't hesitate and repeat the process trying one of the two points that I write In my last post. Try to access to google my devices and delete the previous P9 that you have. And after that, if still don't working try to relock your bootloader.
With one of this two steps it MUST work.
Good luck!
Hi all, i have problem with my p9 l19c432 eu version. I had l19 c432b386 android n and i wanted to go bac to mm. My device doesn't have root or unlocked bootloader or custom twrp. I have all stock.
Tried to go back to mm dload method
1. Rollback package c900b300
2. Full firmware
I did step 1 and instalation was successful 100% but now when i go to about phone my android version is 5.0 NRD90M test keys, not c900b300.
I didn't try to do step 2. because i don't know so much about nrd90m.
Maybe my rollback package is not good, is there difference about rollback package for l19 and l09?
Can anyone help me with my problem? Thank you very much

That is the correct rollback. You just need to download and flash your stock Marshmallow firmware. In my case (eva-l29c636) it was B191. I had the exact same test keys in "about phone" , so just go ahead with step 2.

Thanks for your help. I was suspicious because it's not c900b300 after rollback package, it's ''NRD90m test keys'' and i didn't know can i flash full firmware when build number is nrd90m, so i stoped there. I will try to flash full firmware tomorrow.
Do i need to factory reset now or enable OEM in developer options before flashing full firmware or maybe flash rollback package again and maybe then i will get c900b300?
Thanks

No, you don't need to factory reset or anything---just flash your correct M firmware.

I will try. But before that i must ask, do i need to install something more, because many people have problem as i can see on forum with missing apps like camera, keyboard, calculator..??
One more thing, do rollback will erase my personal data and aplications? And when? I asking because when i flashed rollback package, after that my data and aplicafions was still there. Maybe it will erase after flashing full firmware?

Yes, your data and apps will be gone. When you flash your M firmware it's going to make everything new as if you just opened the box. Sorry if you did not know that. I don't think there is any way to avoid that. I was just setting my device up and noticed an OTA update to B386 Nougat which I successfully updated to BUT then I found out that my P9 will not work on Nougat. I cannot scroll at all with it so I had to find the rollback firmware. I flashed it then immediately after that I flashed B191 Marshmallow and all is well. Nothing else. As I said, you will, however, lose all your data and I don't know if a backup can restore it for you.

Hey friend, i just install full mm firmware and everything is good now, i don`t have nrd90mtest keys, i have now l19c432b182, i found on huawei site for l09 they have rollback package and full firmware b182 so i found for l19. I think good firmware is the key of rollback, and b182 is the best for it. Thanks so much for your help!
I have only one problem, i can`t change themes. I can see themes and when i click apply it, it is successful but it didn`t change. Did you have that problem too?

Thanks again so much

Happy that it worked out for you. I have an icon on my desktop called "Themes", but when I tap on it there is nothing. I just assumed that was something that you would have to download and install from a Huawei website or get from a 3rd party app. Anyway, it does not concern me as I only care about throwing a pic on for my desktop. What really annoys me is that I cannot run Nougat on my P9
Anyway, good that you have it running again. I am on B191 and it looks like that will be all I can do.

Maybe it`s better for you my friend, emui 5 have great design and everything i must say but battery life is better on mm, bcs of it i rollback to mm. But i don`t know why u can`t get official uograde. When i rollback to mm b182 i got instant upgrade to emui 5. Maybe your version of mm is not good bcs when i had emui4.1.3 i got upgrade to b386 and now when i have 4.1.1 i got upgrade to b383. Maybe you can try to install another version of mm.

You can update with firmware finder app on playsore, search on forum, you will find tutorial for it.
Or with 3 buttons combination and dload if you can find update, or with twrp if you have it and you will need update file too. Just search on forum tutorial for it and CORRECT update for your phone, single or dual sim whatever you have and with c900 bcs u have global version.
I found link and instruction for upgrade, unbrick, back from custom rom, etc....and I hope that it will be useful for the most people. My recommendation is to use force upgrade method with three buttons. Enjoy!

I used those service roms with same method for p10 lite, p9 lite. I didnt try this one, but, I dont expect any problem because instruction is provided by Huawei. Just, read instruction, but again my recommendation is force method. Because, normal upgrade is not necessary with this rom, ota, or ffinder are more efficient. But if someone bricked phone, or has custom rom, this is the best thing for rollback to stock rom. The reason why to use forced method iis simple, because with three buttons first flash stock recovery and than stock recovery automaticly repair all system and upgrade all things.

No, no this rom is not for rollback. Only if you have issues with Nougat mentioned servise rom is usefull. But if You try rollback from Emui 8 with this yiu can brick phone. For rollback from Emui 8 to Emui 5 must use official rollback from ffinder.

How can you downgrade from softbricked Oreo ROM where FFindar can't be loaded to Nougat ?

How did you brick phone on Emui 8? Only solution is to try to unlock bootloader in fasrboot and downgrade using twrp, hwota. Method for rollback you can find here in our section. https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/development/downgrade-p10-plus-oreo-to-nougat-t3724382
Regards and good luck.

Long story. Three days was trying to get it unbricked, even it was in service shop, but they didn't do much
however, upgrade from nougat to oreo didn't went well at first. Almost an hour it was installing oreo update zip file in twrp, so I had to turn off the mobile phone in middle of process. At last, it booted to Oreo, but after a first restart (changed overall appearance from large to medium), it just bootlooped. As I had nandroid backup of nougat in twrp, I tried to restore to that, and my problems just got bigger. I tried to go back to oreo again, multile times, different builds, but no luck. Than I found the method you linked, and with great help of guys from Telegram group, it booted again in OS. Hell yes
Strange thing that happend that it didn't booted to Nougat, but in Oreo acctually. Probably LowLevel format helped to fix partitions and stuff, after that bootloader was unlocked again, As for now I have bad Oreo version (8.0.0.046) will rollback again to Nougat.
I'm try to download but on half its stoped
Hi all I used this service rom and it got my phone working again but there are problems the dialer and contacts apps do not work anymore I had to Install 3rd party apps and software update is gone the project menu won't come up when you key in *#*#2846579#*#* command. Fastboot won't let me install twrp fastboot screen shows bootloader unlocked. Frp unlock As it stands I'm stuck with a working limited phone. Does anyone have any ideas I could try

Please let me know where I can find the service ROM for a VKY-L09 (P10 Plus).
The instructions on this forum are written very garbled and not clear enough for me to take a chance and upgrade my phone from Nougat to OREO.

I agree with you all instruction for p10 plus make confusion. You can try this to upgrade to Oreo https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/how-to/huawei-p10-plus-debrand-rebrand-update-t3715288
But, you have stock emui 5 or some custom rom? Im asking because if you had stock rom you had to get regular Ota to emui 8. If you have custom just try to.use Hwota method from mentioned link. I have similar procedure with Hwota for p10 lite so it could be usefull in your case just as example to see how it works
https://youtu.be/m2hZT1g0jtg
If you have stock firmware emui 5, stock recovery and locked bootloader you can try Ffinder for upgrade too.

Thank you for your reply. First reply from Huawei contributors. Thank you.
I have stock EMUI v5.10 and Android v7.0.
I unlocked the device, installed TWRP and rooted it.
I would like to upgrade to OREO and was hoping to find a solution that will allow me to upgrade using TWRP as it is working and installed.
Please advise.
Thank you once again.
I'm currently running ALP-L29 9.0.0.109(C185E2R1P8log) and i'm trying to install ALP-L29 9.0.0.159(C185E2R1P12) though system upgrade option, but when i'm trying to upgrade it shows system update error message and the upgrade does not executes.
Do i need to roll back to 8.0 version first? This beta that i have now installed will detect someday the new version and upgrade automatically ? the device is already unlocked.
Please advice.

I'm not sure which method he used to update his phone, but you can use eRecovery method of FunkyHuawei if your phone is not unlocked with bootloader. I used it to update to 9.0.0.108 (mine is C636), going to update to 9.0.0.159 tonighf. Check the attached image, it shows the available Pie firmwares as mentioned.

Since Huawei stopped the bootloader unlocking service, and I got my phone recently, the method of unlocking the bootloader is troublesome and kind of costly, so I decided not to do anything with it. With FunkyHuawei's eRecovery method, you can update your phone to any firmwares available on their site even with a locked bootloaded. It is quite easy, you should take a look at it. If you decided to go with them, I'd recommend you to back up your data (HiSuite might not be able to restore app data) before updating. I had to factory reset the phone after the update because the phone might have some glitches. Really, I'd recommend this method, it does cost you $18 but it gets the job done. You can PM me if you have any further question.

I had an error while trying to update to 159 via eRecovery method. The computer does not recognize the USB connection. Couldn't fix it myself so I contacted FunkyHuawei and they advised me to do HiSuite method and it worked. I thought I had to downgrade to Oreo first but I just left the 159 on and it could update. May be that could be your solution too.
Thank you all, i have unlocked, rebrand and install Pie my device using funkyhuawei services but since i ran out of credits i want to be sure that if i renew just 1 credit to download the new firmware i can do the upgrade directly from my pie old build to the new one without issues instead of purchase more credits if i have to execute more tasks.
I've manage to download the new build from another site but as i mentioned as im trying to installing using the hidden menu it does not work

When is mate 10 (Alp-l29, c185) receiving emui 9 in the middle east?
Hi I am desperate to receive emui 9.0 after seeing many sites claiming the beta for middle east varients.
I joined the beta program few months ago but misteriously got kicked out or I must say the "my projects" tab was empty a week ago. I would like to know when actually huawei will roll out and OTA update for the mate 10, thankyou

Regarding to OTA, FH told me that we might be able to receive (this build is a legit build from Huawei anyway), but we have to wait and see. I notice that Huawei sends out update at different times to different locations for the same model, hate it. Mate 10 pro is on build 161, but Mate 10 is on build 159, so I guess we have to check FH once in a while together with System Updater. Actually, FH released official Pie updates before Huawei officially announced Pie update schedule, kinda strange though, many have a conspiracy theory on the relationship between FH and Huawei
I think the ROMs provided by FH are stock ROM, that is why we can update the phone through Huawei methods and not third-party ones. Let me guess, you did a factory reset after upgarding to Pie? I had this problem with beta version, and it is an issue with Pie builds, according to FH. If you want to downgrade to Oreo or another build, you have to do it via a specific HiSuite version, to me this way is so much faster than eRecovery. I can provide you the software, but I'd suggest you to contact to FH first, they told me that the reason they don't publish this method is because not every one's issue has a same cause. This is a last resort.
Hope this'd be helpful.

Dear,
They also told me that they didn't stop OTA updates, it's upto huawei to send OTA updates, I hope so it will be like this,
Yes I did factory reset after installing the Pie on my phone, because it was little slow and glitches. No ERecovery is not working to go back to Stock recovery. Can you please tell me that method to try it. Which version you are talking about for HiSuite. I want to go back to the Stock ROM and to receive updates via Huawei OTA. Its very strange to me, that updates are available in the market for the phone, and Huawei not sending to their phones, and also someone like(FW) able to update the phone, something is fishy. May huawei becomes more professional in doing promises.. and satisfy their customers more.

Yes, I also got glitches and many time couldn't turn on the screen, that is why I had to do it. I uploaded the HiSuite version here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NYsPYS6aB1BHaf1p5F_mJJJQMOSc0lql/view?usp=drivesdk
Uninstall your current HiSuite, install this version and follow the same steps (DNS) with FH but without eRecovery.
Not so sure about the stock recovery as you mentioned, but may be what you need is to downgrade to Oreo. I checked on FH and they have a new firmware for downgrade purpose, I don't know what is the difference though. Good luck.
Just received a patch for build 159 from Huawei, so I think OTA works normal on FH's roms.
Finally, ALP-L29 9.0.0.159 officially launched here in Saudi Arabia, and I was not satisfied with the FunkyHuawei software. So decided to downgrade my phone to Android Oreo again, and then update officially.
