Hi I'm rooted on huawei p20 pro
How can I install the firmware
Cu

on which firmware version though? maybe there is no newer one (schau mal unter Einstellungen / System / Über dieses Telefon)
you can install through
1) extracting the zip file and
2) then copy only the "update.app" into a folder you create (call it "dload") on the sdcard root location of your phone
3) switch phone off
4) boot by holding all 3 buttons (Vol+ Vol- and PWR) at the same time until you get the EMUI logo (about 10 sec maybe)
5) profit

Does this retain your date or does it wipe the phone? Thanks.

It usually keeps your data. But it is always recommended to make a backup just in case

I too am having the same issue, when proxy is running the updater doesn't detect the new load .. Anyone try and can you give some advice to get this going ?

Well it did work for me. Sdcard in this case is only a folder on your internal flash drive anyways. Hope that makes sense

Hello there, Yes I've tried your method all using my phone (CLT-L29 8.1.0.107 C636). Dowloaded the full ota zip file from huawei servers. Extracted the zip file, copied only the update.app file from zip to a folder called "dload" in the root location of the phone internal storage. Switch off phone. Switch on by pressing all 3 buttons. Shows installation screen but fails after a few seconds. Any ideas why? This firmware (107c C636) is approved for my device according to huawei firmware Finder.

Thanks a lot for your replies and help. My P20 pro is fully stock with locked bootloader and no custom recovery. Seems like i won't be able to use HuRUpdater. Will just have to wait for official OTA updates.

Duuuude!
DO NOT relock the bootloader. DO NOT do it!
Huawei is currently not unlocking them anymore (not sure if the unlock codes change)
If you want i can help you because for me, in switzerland, the firmware finder works
I can send you the DL links for your phone if you want.

[P8 Lite] Updating the huawei p8 lite when it rootes

Hello,what going to append if i update my rooted phone on B136 to B170 because i readed that if i update with OTA Update my phone can go in a bootloop. Thanks for the answer.
It might be possible. Do not update ota when you are rooted. Download the latest firmware from huawei-updates.ru for your specified model, take the zip into your sdcard in a folder named dload ( you can create it if you dont have it) and go to updater, local update and select it.
Thanks ! and like that I'm not gonna have any problem ?
And and I can directly go to B170 or not?

I made that you say but didn't worked ... thanks for the help .
Keep it in that folder and try to force update by powering down your phone and power it up pressing vol up+ down and power button
Thanks it worked !
No problem sir, here to help
Nooo! don't know why but my phone go to a bootloop.... tried everythink....
Hmm, try to plug in it an usb cable and flash an old firmware for it trough adb.
Can you give me some link to do that ? and thanks !
U need adb toolkit, a version of b170, search on huawei-updates.ru , prefferably the european version. Get huawei package extractor and extract from update.app found in the zip of b170, system.img, cust.img, boot.img,recovery.img. and flash them one by one in fastboot mode. If not, if u had a nandroid backup made with twrp u can restore. U can search google on a detailed guide to do that, as I may induce you in error, not a native explainer talent here
Or you can extract it and flash automatically all in one clic with a script(for all firmware )

I got to beta 6.0, installed twrp, root it, but it did not permanently, uninstall some system app (google+, maps, etc) after a few reboots superSU was asking for binaries; so I unroot it.
How can I get back to stock recovery? And if so, If I make a factory reset, would it boot correctly for a new setup (because of the erased apps earlier).
Thanx mates, regards

After flashing the 1st file I'm stuck on Huawei logo! I can't enter eRecovery or any other thing except fastboot & Rescue mode and I can't seem to flash anything else even using fastboot commands it keeps on giving me failed remote command not allowed and I have installed all the correct drivers. please help my phone has been useless for the past 2 days!
I tried Volume up + power nothing happens just vibrates twice and then goes back to boot logo and stays there.
I tried Volume down + power it goes into the white screen but when I try with Hisuite it says your phone isn't supported and when I used programs like SRK Tool it can't flash anything always returns error command not allowed.
I tried putting correct update.app on SD card and using Volume up and down + power button but it just vibrates twice and never goes into the recovery window!! All this happened after I flashed the 80MB file for L31.
I wasn't rooted before I was on N from the OTA update and wanted to rollback to MM

You can try this method from @Chisetdel31260, try putting EMUI 4.1.1 in the dload folder (the latest ROM for your device) and then it reboots to eRecovery, then you boot to recovery and select factory reset.

You need to download full firmware for your phone version. Put it on sdnin dload folder then turn off the phone completely. After that volume up and down together (no power button). It should install the whole system again. If I remember correctly all steps :silly:

Close enough. Actually, you have to press volume up, down AND the power button to install the firmware.
The whole process is the following :
- Use Huawei Firmware Finder to find the correct ROM to install on your device and download it. Be sure to download the correct file corresponding to your firmware/build version. This is VERY important.
- Plug your Honor 5C to your computer and create a dload folder to the root of your internal storage.
- Extract the archive you got from Huawei Firmware Finder and put the update.app file in the dload folder.
- Now put your phone off and back on by pressing simultaneously volume up, down and power button altogether. That should take care of that soft brick of yours and reinstall the whole system.
After that, you should be good to go.
Hi ! Thanks for your reply ConradP and Zarou !
For download the firmware, I have a beta Nougat update, so... How can I find the firmware for update ?
Thanks !

Unfortunately, I don't know about beta update, sorry. Maybe you can download your previous firmware from HFF (the one you had before the beta) and then get back the Nougat update from where you got it in the first place.
By the way, are you sure that Nougat is supported by your device ? Apparently the beta is for some firmware variants only.
Hi !
This link was you redirected to the image for my honor 5C Nougat 7 and.. When how can I find the update for this version ?

[GUIDE - L31] How to change C432 to C636 in order to get B361 Nougat

Hi, everyone.
I did this to my device and succeeded, so I thought I'd share the procedure with you, if you want to do so, too.
IMPORTANT: I am NOT responsible if you damage your device by following this guide; I am an XDA member like you and I am just sharing a guide that worked for me.
I am assuming you have all the Huawei and ADB drivers installed on your computer and know some basics on how to do these things; if you have no clue where to start, don't risk.
First of all, you need to be in C432B161.
You need to download:
1. This toolkit https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/development/europe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873 and relative package for C432;
2. OEMinfo for C636 you can attached to this post (thank you to the creator);
3. B170 update.app from C636 you can find in this package (1) http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1164/g104/v66846/f1/full/update.zip
4. the firmware package and data files (B361) you can find here
(1) http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1258/g104/v77171/f1/full/update.zip (2)http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...cseas/update_data_full_VNS-L31_hw_spcseas.zip
Procedure
1. Back up all your data because this is going to erase everything from your phone;
2. Open the toolkit, and after installing the package for your device, unlock your bootloader, install TWRP and root your device which you can also do directly from the recovery (the tool is very easy to use and I am not going to be extremely detailed on this one);
3. In the toolkit, change the OEMinfo of your device by selecting the custom.bin and OEMinfo you find in the package attached to this post;
4. Reboot your device by entering the Huawei recovery and do a hard reset/cache clean from there;
5. Insert the update.app file you find in the C636 update package (which is B170) in a folder on your SD you rename "dload" (obviously without the brackets);
6. SD in your device, press the volume keys and power button to upgrade your phone to C636B170... I got an error during this process, but the phone booted and I proceeded regardless;
7. Do the same procedure as before: this time only unlock bootloader and install TWRP recovery by using the toolkit, and in the meantime put the two files to upgrade to B361 in your SD and put it back in the device;
8. Enter TWRP by pressing volume up + power button, install the update package first and then the data files;
9. Do a hard reset from the Huawei recovery you now have, and clean the cache. Reboot;
You are now in C636B360, the Nougat update I find the most stable.
If you want to get rid of the initial booting warning, you can relock your bootloader by doing so:
1. Connect your device to you PC, and from the ADB drivers folder on your hard disk, you open a CMD command (right click on your mouse while holding Shift, then "open command in here" or something similar)
2. Switch off your device, then connect it to USB and immediately switch it on while holding volume down button;
3. In the CMD window, type "fastboot devices" and then Enter to make sure your PC detects the phone;
4. Type oem relock + your bootloader code;
5. The phone will ask you if you want to relock the bootloader;
Done!
Hello
Tuto perfect :good:
thank you
My dude.
Happy to hear it's well done/it helped somebody
On step 7. Can i update has in step 5. Put firmware update.app and then the Data update.app (with eRecovery - Vol+Vol-POWER)? (like that i dont need to unlock bootloarder again and flash TWRP)
so what's the difference between c432 and 636?

No, you need to install it from the recovery because there is not just one update.app file, it's a package with many files in it. You need to do it from TWRP please

The localization. C432 is Europe, C636 is from another country. In terms of features and performance, there is no difference except C636 has been upgraded to a pretty stable version of Nougat and you can have it on your device..

No you shouldn't lose it

You did not flash the additional data package, so you don't have all the files. You have to unlock the bootloader, flash revolution recovery for nougat since you don't have TWRP anymore (it's been replaced by stock nougat one) and try to flash those files manually. I cannot guarantee the results because I find that recovery really unuseful to say the least (my opinion). If you don't succeed, flash the oeminfo for MM you find on htcmania, and revert to MM with stock firmware and 3 buttons method

Everything works, and very well.
So, as it's working well on european devices, which are the differences between c432 and c636? If they are quite similar, why didn't Huawei release a c432b361 version?
I'm not understanding Huawei's approach...

Nobody is. I personally believe it's all marketing strategies. They want us to buy new phones and there are plenty on their way.

softbricked P30 PRO VOG L04 looking for factory firmware

Does anyone have the full factory image for the VOG-L04? I mistakenly used a VOG-L09 image and soft bricked my device. Any help with a download link that works would be awesome.
Thanks!
OK, I found the firmware (I believe) Huawei P30 Pro VOG-L04 claro la VOGUE-L04D 9.1.0.185(C25E8R1P5) Firmware 9.0.0 r3 EMUI9.1.0 05015TJP [androidhost.ru].zip
I can share if anyone needs it. That being said, I can't seem to flash the device. When I try and do a forced install from the dload folder over OTG, The update starts and fails at 5%. Once it reboots I keep coming back to the yellow verbiage of something similar to "Your device has loaded a different operating system bla bla bla". Can anyone assist me in laying down the factory image and getting this back to being bootable?

I'm sorry, man. Your phone is totally rubbish. Because I made the same mistake. My phone has changed with a new one in the service.
I tried every way to save it. No luck. You have to send it to the service

You can't use dload firmware from 9.1 once you used EMUI 10 dload firmware and got softbricked. You can downgrade ONLY using HiSuite PC version and a functionall device powered on.
As i told you in PM, just wait for a proper VOG-L04 C431 cust dload firmware. ONLY flashing that firmware will revive your phone.

Will this firmware work? https://firmware.gem-flash.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=file&id=203710

Nope, that firmware does exactly what it says and doesn't downgrade from EMUI 10 to EMUI 9.1. It's used only on EMUI 9.1 to downgrade to a previos version which allows to remove FRP locked Google account from phone.

I got the same problem Yesterday because i flash a vog-l09 firmware on my vog-l04, what i Made to make It work is flash the other 2 files of full firmware vía e-recovery because my dload menu wasnt avaible anymore, nos i have a fully working emui 10 vog-l09 firmware on my vog-l04, try that.
@sshinde555, m8, check the post above my mention, maybe you revive your device
Can you confirm which other two files you are referring to, please?? If this works I would be forever grateful! Also, how do you install the 2 additional files? Can you tell us the process you took.

This one, maybe his method (when it will explain it better) will work on your device. He revived his device using a VOG-L09 firmware in his VOG-L04 cust device. Maybe using VOG-L29 C431 firmware as he did you can turn on your VOG-L29 C675 cust device. In his attached picture you can see he has original CUST L04 with firmware from VOG-L09 C431.

3) Copy all 3 files to a folder named dload on to a USB drive
4) Goot to e-Recovery mode (Volume up + Power)
5) Select Software Update
6) Select USB-OTG Update
7) the first file (update_sd_base.zip) will install

NO, you won't convert it to L09, it will still be L04, but you will flash L09 firmware on top of your L04 device

YES, if you follow @viffer_man steps from his post, you'll have. But be aware that usig his method will wipe your phone data. Backup before doing it.
