FF - Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers

For C432
We have now 3 build that not are approved by Huawei.
B381 (approved) Feb security patch
NOT APPROVED
B382 (2018.03.07) March security patch
B383 (2018.03.29) March security patch
B384 (2018.04.03) April Security patch
Why?
Why should i use FF when the build never get approved before builds get OTA anyway?

You can use twrp or there is a modded recovery to force install (see p9 forum)

na, don't wanna unlock bl and run twrp.
I just don't understand all the build in FF and why they don't get approved.

Huawei is just really bad to update. Thats it!
Soon, there gonna be an B385 with May security patch and still no approved builds for C432

Best way to upgrade to Jan patch?

So, here's the thing: I upgraded to Pie using the leaked OTA. When the January update became available last month I didn't try to rollback or anything because it had nothing new.
Now the February patch is supposed to have the missing Pie apps (Digital Wellbeing, etc) and it would be really nice to be able to update, but I can't even update to the Jan one since it gives me error when trying to install the patch.
What's the best way to go to the February security patch? Should I try to flash an official firmware, and how?
I'm on 00WW_5_110 and my phone isn't unlocked or anything.
Yay, I did it! I followed this guide from here about unlocking the bootloader but only as far as downgrading to November patch.
After that it installed the official December Pie beta and then the January patch. It doesn't find the February update, but I guess it just isn't available in my region.
