Can someone help me with my P9? I have already bought a Huawei P20 and I plan to wipe my P9 and return it to stock as ut is rooted + unlocked bootloader. I tried reading various articles here in the forum but Im just so confused.
I don't know where I can download the latest stock firmware to flash it via TWRP. Then also how to return it to stock recovery.
Any help for this would be much appreciated

Hi. I´ve used motofail2go from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928509 to root. I haven´t noticed a problem with mi RAZR i sound so, I need to take it to waranty but there´s the problem that the waranty is "avoided" with the root. So I need to unroot my phone. I haven´t unlocked the bootloader, thats why I used motofail2go. Is there any way to unroot?
My firmware is 871.110.13009.XT890.AmericaMovil.en.MX.

Simply reflash any firm with RSD Lite (Use the newer versions, like 6.14)
You can search a firm here

Hi Guys, i'm noob to this and would appreciate if someone could give me some advise.
If my phone is bought in China, called MT788 here, is it possible and safe to root it and flash the firmware with a retail GB?
The original firmware is IRPMTD_6_02.47.00RPS, IFWI version is 05.A8, Baseband version is L1713-MSA_1.10.05.P01.
Does anyone knows if this AIO works? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2026031
Thanks in advice
Hi guys I have the latest firmware installed ( see screenshot) whenever I try to obtain root via chain fires autoroot or through custom kernel for n9208 my phone gets stuck at bootloader. Is there any way to fix this.
Ps the crom services app always force closes . And I followed every step on root tutorials
Hi, i got same problem with new firmware update, lost my root and tried to root again with chainfire autoroot, but didnt work, tried a couple of times...no luck, at this step i still can boot android, then tried flash xiaolu kernel...at this step i got boot loop, both space kernel also failed to boot, so if you havent flash any kernel with odin, you still can boot after flashing twrp recovery, but if you already messed with kernel, there no way to to fix it...better flassh new firmware, and use stock until someone can find a way to root 5.1.1, hope its help...

Isn't there a way we can simply downgrade to the last rootable firmware?
if you're on the latest firmware, i recall having to install the AOK2 bootloader to root my N9208 using the original root methods (not the Systemlesss Root method). check the TWRP thread for details. The situation may have changed, but when i upgraded my firmware to AOL1, i had to downgrade the bootloader to AOK2 to regain root.

How did you downgraded your boot loader? I am sorry but I'm really new to galaxy development.
PS is it safe to flash a firmware from December over my current version which is from march

check the TWRP thread for details and links to downgrade the bootloader. please note/remember, i downgraded from AOL1 to AOK2. not sure if this works with any firmware newer than AOL1. in my case, i reflashed the AOL1 firmware, then downgraded/flashed the AOK2 bootloader and then rooted using the original 9208 root method.

Hi everybody
I browse various forums and sites and I can't find a definite answer to my question. I have a model (VTR-L29C432) with stock rom (B123). Bootloader is unlocked, root and TWRP (3.1.0-0-vtr) installed.
How can I upgrade my system to (B164)? I downloaded three files using FirmwareFinder (update, update_data_full_public, update_full_VTR-L29_hw_eu).
Can I flash them with recovery (TWRP) ?
Sorry for my english (google translator)
Please help me.
Regards
Update while keeping your personal files isn't possible with rooted phone. You can use HWOTA to install a new version but all your data will get lost.

Thank you for your answer. I'm getting an update
Hi,
Device: EVA-L19
Short background: I need to return the phone due to hardware problem. Color camera won't focus and I believe this is a hardware issue as I've tried flashing a different ROM. The problem is I have rooted my phone.
I tried the SRK Tool to relock the bootloader but after I reboot it just gets stuck in recovery mode doesn't even boot to system.
Is there any website I could download the stock rom for EVA-L19? Is there any guide in which I could refer to reverse all the things I made (bootloader, unroot, etc)?
Any help appreciated. :good:
Thanks.

There are a lot of threads, discussions and guides here on XDA
First of all, you must know which cust cXXX and build bYYY you are looking for your L19, installations can differ
You can install FirmwareFinder app from Google Play (there is also a thread here about), from that app you can download particular ROMs
Generally, if you just rooted your phone, you should unroot (depending how did you Root it) and then you can reinstall the same cust and build (to clear all records of rooting) - use FF app, FullOTA-MF-PV versions can be easily installed by DLOAD method (which is described elsewhere in Huawei P9 threads)
At the end, you will probably also need to re-lock bootloader - for rooting, you should have installed TWRP, and for that you needed unlocked bootloader and FRP
To revert, best follow/ask in the threads you were following when rooting etc

When asking such questions it is necessary to provide more info
Also, dload does not work good with all stock firmwares and is not enough to restore stock from custom ROMs.
Also, if dload is forced with mixing custs, it can brick the phone
Supposing you were (before custom), you are now and you are going back to Nougat, use HWOTA
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75787156&postcount=3
Of course, you need unlocked Bootloader and FRP.
Please open P9 Questions and Answers and you will find similar discussions - and further questions like what if you didn't keep your Bootloader code (you should have had it when flashing custom ROM), and so
Edit: Thanks to the link you provided, I managed to flash stock firmware. Thank you very much!
