Manual update P10?

Anyone succeed with manually updating P10? I have tried with no sucess.
Old method is not working.
Thanks

No but did you made the dload folder with the update.app file and then booted into the stock recovery mode?
I woudnt know any other way since they removed that from update settings : |

I tried that, does not work.

You can't manual update the P10 or P10 Plus, since it requires an online check.
They removed the ability to manual update via dload methode.
The only way at this moment is to use FunkyHuawei!

What about Firmware finder? I've tried this as well but I only get download failed, even everything is done as it should.

Hey,
I am working into this direction and got some promising results already. I am testing two more things during the next days (so that I can be sure my Stuff won't break your phones) and hope I can share my findings with you early next week.

Good to hear that. :good:

So, it is not possible to update, even the firmware matches your corrent model/brand?
I finally found the FW for VTR-L09C109, but when using dload method I get "Installation failed".

No, it is not possible. Huawei did something with emui 5.1.

Wrong you can now debrand for free and offline check this out https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108 can confirm it works

Does bootloader needs to be unlocked and twrp installed?

It is not good since you loose warranty with bootloader unlocked.

Not always correct. It depends on the local country laws you live in.

And also if you follow the instructions you end with LOCKED Bootloader so no warranty lost

Is it same with P10 as it was with P9, tha it say relocked instead locked bootloader, when you lock it again?

nope : Phone LOCKED
FRP unlocked so they cant see the difference they can only find out if they check if you got the bootloader unlock code.but you also could request the code and dont use it.

Any progress here? The update has been out for months in other regions but I still haven't got anything here in Sweden :/

Whats the method to root / unlock bootloader of this device now? how?

Look at DC Unlocker, but note that this will cost you a few €.

no other way to root the device or get the unlock code? Will emailing them help? I kinda have to root my phone to recover some lost files. I dont have a lot of options. Can someone please help?

Huawei won't send you the unlock code via email, you can try it but there's not a great chance.
Only easy way is DC Phoenix, as @M1chiel already said. It's a tool made and serviced by Huawei, which is just a flaw against their users.
If you got your unlock code and unlock your phone it will do a factory reset, so all user data will be removed.
And there's absolutely no way to avoid this.
But if I'm allowed to ask, what do you want to recover? Everything you can do without root is stored in /data. If you deleted files you can try to recovery the files with apps without root.
But the recovery chances are low because with electronic based memory removed data is mostly totally gone.

You can buy code from Funky Huawei for 55$

Only 4€ with DC Phoenix and works for sure

Hi,
Did it work with your Phone?
I have a VTR-L09 8.0.0.376(C432) and I'm not sure it's gonna work
The homepage says:
Huawei P10 VTR-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported

I got my code in time. Users in the openkirin telegram group reported that it worked. Possibly you can first downgrade with Hisuite?

Nice! Did you unlock it? Were you able to root & flash custom roms?

Yes worked well.
Only bad thing is, couldn't find a twrp with encryption Support for Custom roms.

For me this method DID NOT work! Tried everything, always getting unknown error 3xx ...

hi,
I tried but guys from DC support said that maybe some security patches are blocking reading phone.
I tried to get DC Unlocker working but it doesn;t read my bootloader code. The DC Unloacker gave back my money right after they saw print screens from my 10 dual with 361 firmware from my operator. I wanted to debrand it to official but still frustrated not being able to do it.

did this also, no effect on 7.0

Does DC Unlocker detect phone also in free version or i have to buy credits first? I am trying connect my phone but i get "phone not found". I also have VTR-L09 version.

Got it worked. First flashed Nougat with FF app then unlocked with DC

i think yes, detecting is free but actions to perform are paid by credits
i had similar and two more errors - helped to switch to different usb port to install fresh set of drivers - that includes those ones when you switch to manufacturer mode which is needed for dc-unlocker to work correctly

Huawei Mate Pro 20 Lite

I currently own SNE-LX1 on Android Pie 9.0 with 9.1.0.229 (C432E4R1P1) Build.
Just wondering if anyone flashed TWRP succesfully onthis version?

It can not be done, because you can't unlock the bootloader on the Mate 20 Lite

I have an option for OEM unlocking though. Haven't tried it since it'll format everything.
Why is the option even there then?

You need an unlock code from Huawei to unlock the bootloader, but since more than a year ago, Huawei doesn't provide unlock codes anymore

Huawei have stopped giving away the bootloader unlock codes, and most of the "3rd party" websites don't actualy provide this - those that promise the code are mostly fake and you should avoid giving them money (unless you like to giveaway money to scammers)
Anyway, even with the unlocked bootloader, you still don't have a TWRP port for the most recent updates of the Mate 20 Lite....

(Q) Query about bootloader and re-packaging an OTA

hi all,
Just having a thought (might not work but thought i'd ask)
Some OTA's / Firmwares which you can install from the bootloader have the ability to re-lock the device, would the same be possible for the other way around?
I mean i'm on a locked bootloader now cos of the crap i installed which updated me to 9.1, it relocked the bootloader, I can turn on OEM unlocking (FRP) but obviously it remains unlocked.
Would there be a way to repackage a firmware package so that it does the opposite to re-locking?
I think everyone has pretty much given up on Huawei devices, I was just trying to disable zRAM and i can't.
Any thoughts ? Is this a possible avenue? or is this simply not going to work?
I'd guess the latter but thought i'd ask.

Which firmware version relocked your bootloader? I can perhaps take a look at it in my free time.

Nope! DLOAD re-lock bootloader to factory condition, but there's no way to unlock the bootloader with it.
I don't think Huawei will give you the unlock code a second time, but maybe you will be lucky, who knows.
Maybe you can retrieve it from an email from them!?
Edit: You can download your HuaweiID data from Settings - > HuaweiID - > Privacy Center but i doubt you will get the bootloader code from there

I've spoke with them, they said they've not heard of a situation like this.
Bare in mind that this is information that has been passed to me before. Which is a correspondence, they are obligated to provide it regardless.
I don't believe it was in an email and I've checked all accounts

Thanks for sharing this topic

yeah but then probably huawei was giving the bootloader codes and now they aren't and it is very unlikely to get it. And you need to unlock bootloader if you want to root your phone.
