Hi everyone, I just wanted to share that I found a way to flash/rebrand the Chinese P10 Plus variant VKY-AL00, and if you just be patient, i'll write a tutorial in the next few days, but first just want to make sure everything works as it should on my P10 Plus, which i already successfully flashed to VKY-L29C432B181, even though TWRP wasn't able to mount any partition.
So, any news? Or this is fake, or it's spam? So...
I also am interested in this conversion.
any news about it?
I tried almost every twrp that I could find. Eventually I found one that worked good on oreo, but I was not able to find a proper rollback, anyway the twrp wouldn't work on nougat. Almost bricked the phone. If anyone found any proper way, please share!
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

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.
Hello, first time here but I need some help.
So I wanted to root my P10 (mainly for Viper) and I started digging around here and there (mostly in XDA). I followed few guides (on how to unlock the bootloader, how to flash TWRP, how to root...) but I still can't pull this off. Anyway, straight to the problem:
So as you can see I'm using P10 on Oreo (B360) and EMUI 8.0. I unlocked the bootloader using ADB & fastboot. Then I flashed this TWRP: link
So far everything went smooth and without any errors. I am able to boot into TWRP. So here I'm stuck trying to flash the root.zip (this one). Whenever I try I get the Error: 1 (as mentioned in the thread), however, I read here in XDA that on Oreo flashing boot.img bricks the phone? I saw several threads of people with bricked phones due to flashing boot.img. My question is - what do I do here?
I looked for other solutions like Magisk but from what I understood Viper4Android doesn't work on it.
Anyone... anything? I'd really appreciate any help.
If it's not possible (even though I've seen people with rooted P10s on Oreo...) is there a way I can revert back the changes I did so I can remove the warning message on bootup and possibly have my warranty back?
you Cant root it yet beacose there is no twrp for emui 8, so look and try some methodes root without TWRP
and why you wanna rooot emui 8, there is nothing for it, yet.
What do you mean? I already said I have TWRP and I'm able to boot into it without problems. I even linked the unofficial TWRP I flashed in my first post. Plus I saw few people here that have rooted P10s on Oreo. And finally all I want to install is Viper.
There is this TWRP by @espaciosalter20 : https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-emui-8-0-4-04-2018-t3773449
should work, support for data decrpytion...
I used MAGISK 16 to root my OREO EMUI 8.0 P10
-done....
about super root and supersu working on OREO EMUI 8.0 you have to ask in the ROOT thread.
about viper4android i don´t know..i don´t use it.
So long story short I wanted to get root access in order to install an audio mod for my phone, realized it was basically pain in the ass and most of the time it won't work so I want to revert the changes back to where I started (a.k.a. stock recovery, locked bootloader). Also system update doesn't work with TWRP, it just boots into TWRP and doesn't proceed installing the update. I'd like to fix that.
My phone is VTR-L29C432 B360 Oreo 8.0
I flashed this TWRP -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-emui-8-0-4-04-2018-t3773449
Phone hasn't been rooted.
I'm sorry if it looks like I made something dumb but I just want some help. I'd appreciate anything really.
Anyone anything? At least I'd like to revert to stock recovery so I can install B365.
On the other side would installing B365 from FF work fine with TWRP?
Really nobody has a solution? Can't I extract the stock recovery for B360 from somewhere? It's that I'm new with Huawei phone and I'm not sure how everything works here. I used to own Galaxy Y but things were simpler there.

Hi I have a Huawei P8 lite 2017. Although ive flashed a few motorolas with Adb/twrp ive been struggling with this.
Ive eventually got it restored using this guide. Which is fine but NFC reports that it cant be used.
Id like to either flash another patched Rom to it or Ideally ANdroid 9.0
Im familier with Adb and installing twrp etc. Just need a little guidance please.
