Hello!
I'm currently running on EMUI 4.1.1 (EVA-L09C900B182)
I downloaded the official firmware for P9 from Huawei website, extracted the UPDATE.APP with this tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454 so i could get the stock RECOVERY.img.
I placed the UPDATE.APP in a dload folder on the root of my external SDCARD
Rebooted into bootloader, flashed the stock recovery (I had TWRP).
vol+, vol- and power button togheter, it tries to install but fails (software install failed! Incompatibility with current version. Please download the correct update package.)
I tried also with huawei firmware finder app and even if it says the firmware is approved for the installation when i verify with IMEI, it fails after (I tried EVA-L09C900B386).
I tried:
- with the in-app proxy, changing my wifi proxy to localhost:8080 and using the default updater
- downloading the package and manually moving UPDATE.APP in dload on my ext sd card.
What i would like to obtain is a full stock huawei p9 phone, so i could get the official android 7 and latest firmware.
Thanks a lot!

Best is to follow this guide and debrand the phone to C432.

I did something similar and ended up with C432B242 after some update with huawei firmware finder. Now I cant reach B397.. I've tried all the intermediate steps after 242: no luck. It fails during installation. Any specific instruction?

U have to downgrade to B182 and then upgrade to B360 FullOTA-MF-PV
When u upgrade to a new Android system u must flash FullOTA-MF-PV
U could try without downgrade first, but u cant upgrade to B397 because its not signed yet by Huawei, B395 ist the latest approved Firmware.

From b182 OTAs will lead up to b395.
b397 OTA is expected any day, meanwhile it can be forced (as well as the newer b398) from b395 by using no-check recovery:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/eva-nocheck-recovery-flash-unapproved-t3705125
Update:
I reinstalled from b136 => b166 => b182
After that i tried b378 but now my build number is NRD90M test-keys
Will start again from b136 trying something different.

Install b182 (still MM) and you should then receive OTA upgrades to b38x, b39x (Nougat)

I still don't understand why you don't 'like' OTAs. In System Update, Settings, you can always choose Full Update instead of default Differential. And you can force afterwards Factory Reset if you think you need.
b386 is the last flashable by DLOAD. Btw, I was going back and forth through diff stock and rooted and custom ROMs, rollbacks, OTAs, and never had any error in installations. There are many threads with excellent info and guides, you must read and follow because in diff situations methods might be different. DLOAD is not always applicable

What country/region are you from?
What is the present firmware version B160 dated?
Firmware Finder (FF) (online version) shows B150 as the latest, so FF's probably not going to help you unfortunately: http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VIE-L09c627&firmware_page=0
Your only other option may be to convert to another region's ROM, which has received regular updates - e.g. Euro C432 ROM (latest is B382, dated March 2018). But, it's a risky procedure which involves unlocking the bootloader, rooting the phone, changing the vendor country info with SRK Tool, etc, etc.

Which update did you try? If you're still on 4.1, then you should try a much earlier update (i.e. the very 1st 5.0 update) - I'd recommend one of the B361s from here (or via the FF app): http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VIE-L29C605&firmware_page=0
Always download & apply the FullOTA-MF, in this case ~1.3Gb file size.
Once you have installed B361 successfully, try the B381 update (not the latest B382 as it will not work at this stage most likely). Again, download the FullOTA-MF (1.4Gb) & apply it.

I tried all of the full OTA on FF all them download just fine but every time the phone restarts to install the update for some reason it fails at 1% of the install.

try B202 first
I had an P9+ B130 version and was able to upgrade to B202, which is needed as a stepping stone to MIUI 5. I used FF with the proxy update scheme. The B202 update worked while other versions stopped at verifying the update, which is just what you experienced.

I'm out of luck then it seems that the B354 update is no longer available on FF which is the "steppingstone" in my case.

I'm having a problem updating firmware from AL-AL00 8.0.0.128(SP2C00) to ALP-AL00 8.0.0.129(SP2C00) using Firmware Finder. The firmware says it is approved. I have the vpn running and when the update is completed it fails after the reboot. And I have tried the FullOTA and both OTAs but the end result is the same.
Try with HuRUpdater :

Thanks oslo83. I have now managed to update the firmware via Firmware Finder. Not really sure or understand why I wasn't able to before. Perhaps the firmware takes time to get to my region.
firmware finder usually is approved by the time the normal OTA is installing....Had the same problem,and suddenly ota said there is a new version at the same time that firmware finder wanted to install.

If you're willing to get/already have Magisk, there may be a module we can try to see if we can get it working

easy way to fix this is flash the same ota version you are using rightnow, then after flashing flash the new firmware available. happened to me before in 129 firmware. after doing the said steps 129 was installed without any error

I have download some FullOTA-MF [LLD-L31C432B127 (8.0.0.127) and LLD-L31C432B132 (8.0.0.132)] from Firmware Finder and tried to downgrade my phone bucause I want to install GSI on it. I have used the how to of "ReleaseDoc" folder, as suggested on this tutorial.
However, I can't install from both SD Card Upgrade and Force Upgrade. I got stuck on the screen that say "incompatibility with current version please download the correct upgrade package". Any suggestion to downgrade to 2018 June patch or earlier? I just want to install GSI.
I also try to put the UPDATE.APP from Update.zip inside dload folder on the root f SD Card, but I wans't able to downgrade as well. Besides that, I tried to use HiSuite version 5.0.xx + Firmware Finder DNS, but wasn't possible.
Look at my reply on your original post
