I read a post where was explained a route to rebrand a CLT-L09 single sim to a CLT-L29 dual sim. There where mixed reactions for it to work or not but I'm not sure if someone really got it to work.
Did someone manage to successfully rebrand from CLT-L09 to CLT-L29?
I am in the Netherlands and using a Huawei P20 Pro CLT-L09 8.1.0.131 (C432).

It depends on what method. If you used the free method involving root add custom recovery, then it DOESN'T enable the second SIM functionality.
The paid method works just fine.

How do I get a new boot loader code?
You can't at all
There is no way to get the "new" boot loader code even when Huawei offer boot loader unlocking code.

you don't need to lock your BL if you want to receive OTA ! anyway if you lock it you will be not able to unlock it again! my BL is unlocked and OTA update work perfect ! last OTA for L29 is 128 firmware but not 128a !

Do you have a stock recovery or a TWRP? As I've read somewhere on the forum you have to be on the stock recovery to flash OTAs. But let someone confirm this cause I don't have the P20 PRO yet.

Yes, it's pretty simple. I made it because I wanted to transform my P20 pro single sim to dual sim and it worked !
After procedure the new bootloader become re-locked. You can't use anymore the Huawei code to unlock boootloader and you can't root the phone or install twrp.
Until Funky find a system to unlock without code.

I had heard that using any of Funky's procedures relocks the bootloader and the Huawei bootloader unlock code no longer works. But like a lot of people, I purchased my unlock code from a 3rd party. So it would be interesting to see if it survived a Funky method.

But surely your code do not work after procedure!
Because Funky firmware chanche your bootloader code. And so unlock codes doesn't work anymore.

Yes there are a few sites offering bootlocker unlock codes. https://ministryofsolutions.com/huaw...-new-firmwares does them for 30€, although they only accept so many paypal payments per day. https://global-unlocking-solutions-...es,_Choose_Model_Below/p5093122_19186756.aspx is €35 but has no limitations on paypal payments. I believe that both are totally legit, according to P20 onwers here.
Funky Huawei is a strange one. If you use one of their options to, say, change your region, model number etc, it will lock your phone again and make your current bootloader password useless. And the bad thing about this is, they don't offer an unlock service. Unless you pay for their unlimited use pass, which costs $132. Then they throw in a free bootloader unlock. I'm not sure if the relock and code breaking is a deliberate act by Funky Huawei but personally speaking, they should be giving a new working code to anyone whose unlock code they've trashed.
Hello,
I don't know what to do anymore. I just want to change the region of my P10 from VTR-L29C185 (Oreo) to VTR-L29C432 (Oreo) because I live in Europe and have problems with the mobile network.
I got my bootloader unlock code from the Huawei Site which didn't work (I get the check password failed! error). Then I contacted Huawei saying the code I got didn't work and they sent me the same code again. I explained them the problem and they told me that in their database, my phone is carrier locked to SFR but 1. I checked the SIMLOCK Status which is "SIMLOCK_DEACTIVE" and 2. my SIM Card from another provider works (I just have these issues like random disconnects and it only gets 2G).
So my question is : Can't I simply just flash the European Firmware via Firmware Finder ? Has anyone tried this ?
Thanks.
No you can't. You'll have to rebrand first, with an unlocked bootloader. Did you enable OEM unlocking in developer options?

Yes. The device is recognized in adb and fastboot, and the bootloader shows FRP Unlocked.
have you choose "after emui 5.x" when you asked for the unlock code? Because it sounds like you asked for unlock code for device "before EMUI 5.x".
next suggestion is that you entered wrong imei/product id/serial number. Where and how you get it?
Or anyway, where you bought the device? C185 is middle east region. And it could be locked to carrier by disabling unlocking bootloader and not sim cards.
you can try DC Phoenix ..you need to pay them, and they will send you the unlock key. Should work.

Yes I chose "after EMUI 5.X", and checked the imei/product/ and serial numbers multiple times. I got it from the settings and the secret menu with the dial code.
I bought it on a french website, but it was not a french reseller. I know C185 is middle east, and yes, I think paying DC Phoenix is the only thing left for me to do.
I read the bootloader code with DC Unlock. It wasn't the same I got from the Huawei website and it worked. Funny that Huawei themselves did not give me the proper code even after contacting them.
I hope I get to fix the network issues now. Thanks !

DC-unlocker works if you're on BLA-L29C432B142 or lower. They did something in B145 which fixed dc-unlockers unlock code generation and the backdoor they use with DC-Phoenix. And you can't use FH to downgrade either (Not tested on B145 but on B148-SP1).
I'm not sure what builds are on other custs, but this is the Night Shot update on C432.
F*ck, my phone was 142 and I have updated in 145 just out of the Box...

No it is not, at least one user couldn't (I know it's not much, but it's a friend of @Pretoriano80). I think someone in the Funky thread tried too.
It finds update and that but stays on 0% forever. He was trying to downgrade to both b145 and b142.

The one issue I ran into was fastboot oem unlock wouldn't work initially. I went into developers options to find the oem unlocking feature greyed out. To fix this turn off automatic updates in developers options. Then put your sim card in and restart your phone. (I was keepoing the sim card out to prevent updates) I was able turn on the OEM unlocking feature after this.

Guys, i just bought mate 10 lite and i have bunch of noob questions. Instead of starting new thread i wanted to ask here.
So my phone on RNE-L21C185B142 version. I read the forums and got my bootloader unlock code from dc-unlocker before its too late. So i am able to unlock my bootloader and root my phone right now.
1- Should i unlock my bootloader? I was using cyanogenmod and lineageos on my previous 2 phones. I like customize my phone thats why i install custom roms.
2-If i unlock my bootloader am i still able to get official updates somehow (like flashing from adb or twrp) without relocking bl?
3-If i install custom rom or root can i go back to stock 8.0.0.142 version so i can unlock my bl again?
Thanks in advance
Hi. I have a mate 10 pro. Originally it was a branded bla-l09 mono sim. I, with funk Huawei, turned it in l29 dual sim. Now I have the need to turn it again in l09 and I think to do this with hwota8 (to save my money). This tool does not touch the mono/dual sim functionality. Doing this, there is a chance that it remains dual sim?
Thanks

Yes, because FH tool flashes an included (and disguised) oeminfo that is dual-sim. The included oeminfo changes your imei, imei2 and sn while in fastboot. Which in turn has also changed your bootloader unlock code.
HWOTA8 will only edit oeminfo to L09 but you will still technically be dualsim. I'm not sure how that will work on L09 firmware though. However, when you flash oeminfo you will have to unlock again, which will be impossible if you don't have your new unlock code (Acquired after you rebranded using FH).
What firmware are you on now?
Starting with BLA-L29C432B145 (The Night Shot update, so might already apply to all cust that has the new Night shot firmware) you can no longer get an unlock code from DC/HCU.

Yes I have a unlock code got after debranding with dc unlocker. Now I am in c432b148-sp1 (xloader 01).
ok i do all.
the situation is this: dual sim works! But in the settings, isn't any option to activate/deactivate sim1/sim2.
If i remove sim 2, It looks like a normal mono sim.
If i can manage it with a third part app... it was fantastic!

If it was sold as single SIM (L09), you cannot 'transform' (by changing firmware) to dual SIM (L29), because there are hardware differences.
For any flashing (changing cust for stock firmware, custom ROM, rooting, TWRP) you have to buy Bootloader code and unlock Bootloader (it is possible but the code is costly)

They are expensive. I'm also waiting for their answer (people say they answer from time to time, they depend on an insider, when he is able...):
https://imei.by/delivery
Ministry can also do it, little cheaper (40$) but you will need to open back cover and connect Testpoint pins. Minister will need Team Viewer remote access to your PC. I guess (didn't go for, waiting if I can buy from the first above) he will low-level flash an old Oreo, where from it was possible to generate BL code. Then he would, IMO, update back to Pie. Guy told me the operation might take an hour or two:
https://ministryofsolutions.com/paid-services/amp
I was also told that those can provide the code but for ridiculously high price (you can ask them):
https://funkyhuawei.club/
Finally, don't use them, they only unlock BL for one-time (and high price) you don't get the code:

Exactly for VTR-L09 or some other Huawei model (it's not the same)
A year ago I played for a week and rebranded EVA-L09 to L19, tried a lot but it never became dual SIM.
To the other side, similar rebranding to dual SIM model worked fine and straightforward for P9 Lite
Edit: You could have provide a link to spread info and help the community (if single SIM P10 can be really rebranded to dual SIM)
This is what i got with MT tool
Can i install one of those updates and if ok how can i perform it
