P20 Pro How to Change Modell Information / Country Code - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

I have a Huawei P20Pro from China - the Version with 256 GB. I need to flash it with the European Stock Rom - preferred CLT-L29C432B120 - 8.1.0.120 - Europe. However bevor I can do this I have to change the Modell Information / Country code of the phone. It's now saying CLT-AL00 but it need to be CLT-L29 in order to install the European Stock Rom.
Can anybody please help me how to change this? The standard developer / service tools like Chimera do not support the P20Pro And this is where I'm stuck right now.
I know this question is developer related but the board does not let me open a thread there.

It is all over XDA forums, it's called debranding

I'm wondering about this too, if it makes any difference or not since it's the exclusive 256gb Chinese version.

P20 Pro CLT-AL00 v 8.1.0.131 (C675)

Hi all...
I just got the p20 pro. While searching the forum I saw discussions on firmware upto 8.1.0.120 (germany)...
I saw no discussions regarding the firmware 8.1.0.131 which i got out of the box.
There's no thread for CLT-AL00 Model as well.
Please help me with a method to root this model. I'm from India
On FirmwareFinder, the last firmware version for the CLT-AL00 is 8.1.0.1.109 (05/16), so you're very lucky to have this one.
Where are you from ?
From India... Haven't Nobody else received 8.1.0.131? How do i root it?
It seems that the 131 firmware is an older version coz i cannot find the improvements that's present in 120... Any way to flash 120 in my clt-al00 model?

Can you please extract your firmware and submit it to the forum so that it can be added to the list of official firmware? I'd like to try flashing 135 firmware as I'm not interested in staying on 120 and root.
Was your original model CLT-AL00 and region C675?
No. CLT-L29 C636
From where did you buy it? India models have c675.

I got Huawei P20 pro from China. It's very nice phone. But I think, existing OS is Chinese OS. How can I install european firmware? Btw, phone is english but some of the services like Huawei's Siri and other Huawei's applications, some themes, etc is Chinese. I hope, they didn used Chinese for european fimrwares.
Existing version is : CLT-AL00 8.1.0.109(SPC200)

I have the same one. Any chance you could help me out with manual firmware flashes?
Even I have CLT-AL00 8.1.0.131 (C675), as per customer care new version is under testing
Hi all, FYI
I've just get my CLT-AL00 chinese version, installed an update : 8.1.0.176 (C00)
I've also installed Google Play Store from an APK which works perfectly. I installed a keyboard normal which kicked out the chinese one. I've uninstalled any chinese apps.
The only (false) problem i have is that i don't know how or where to unlock the bootloader for rooting and kind.. I saw that it can be done with FunkyHuawei after paying 55$ i don't want to.
I really don't understand why to rebrand as google service and apps works perfectly

[GUIDE] how know the brand of mate 20 pro

Hi, I don't find a complete guide to know the brand of phone, huawei mate 20 pro, but only pieces in many sites.
Here a complete guide.
It's very simple. There's a code on dialer *#*#2846579#*#*, this will open a menu. On menu through - > "network information query" - > "vendor country info", you'll see vendor and country. Models no branded have as vendor hw (it should be huawei=, hw) and as country Eu (for Europe phones, out of Europe can has other voices).
So, if your phone has vendor:hw and country:eu, it's not branded.
If vendor is Tim, H3G, Vodafone, Wind or others, it is branded.
Another method more simple is through build number:
C432=EU
C55=TIM
C113=WIND
ITAC555=H3G
C02=VODAFONE
Every model: LYA-L09/LYA-L29 (LYA=LAYA), etc... Has these codes in build number, and every codes means a different vendor, and obviously C432 means no branded.
I'm from Italy, so I'm sorry for my English, however, I don't know other names of mobile operators, but in Europe if you've C432, phone isn't branded (last huawei's phone models haven't state's firmwares, for example a code for Italy's models and another for Germany's models, but they have code for Europe and others out of Europe and vendors).
C792=Canada (Videotron only?) LYA-L0C - single SIM.
What is C301?
Anyone have firmware LYA-L29 C301?

Bought a Huawei P20 Pro and even when I change language some stuff is still Chinese

So I just got this Huawei P20 Pro today that I bought off some dude and the problem is that when I change the language it doesn't change everything. Most of the stuff is still in chinese on the phone. I guess the phone was made for the chinese market and I have a chinese firmware on my phone. Is there any way I could get an Europe firmware and install it on my phone in order to get rid of this chinese language?? I would appreciate any kind of answer. My model of phone is CLT-AL01 EMUI version 10.0.0.

i thought model AL01 is for China or HK and L09/L29 purposing for global only.
maybe you should change language on system & update or just factory reset only
