Bricked Mate 10 (xloader 02) repaired by Support Service - Huawei Mate 10 Guides, News, & Discussion

Well, great news for European (I'm from Spain) users.
Recently I bricked my Mate 10 ALP-L09 by flashing an xloader 01 firmware over a 02, obviously I discovered the app for checking the xloader later (damn) and obviously the phone broke, it didn't turn on, just black screen, it appeared on pc as USB SRV...
So I sent it to the support service claiming that it bricked after updating to the last firmware OTA. Well now they told me that my phone has been repaired and its ready to be sent home. ?
The phone's bootloader was unlocked and with a different cust and firmware (specifically the Alp-Al00c00 the Chinese version B311 emui 8.1), I don't know if that one has xloader 01 but I was on a B141 for L09, I flashed that Chinese firmware before several times and I always was able to go back to B135 for alp-l09 but not this time because B141 was xloader 02. The phone was a brick.
I haven't received the phone yet but I will update once it arrives, I want to see if they relocked the bootloader and if my unlock code still works.
Well played Huawei. ?

Good for you, but as for using the old bootloader code you just have to forget about it, cause they have replaced the motherboard and you will be using a totally different phone.

Yeah I supposed that, but the imei and all the oeminfo stauff should remain the same, won´t it?
If I cant unlock the bootloader, then I´m selling it straight away.

Hopefully they didn't update past May firmware so you could still use DC to get a new code, if your old code doesn't work.

Are there currently any ways to unlock the Mate 10 (/Pro)'s bootloader?

After Huawei killed their bootloader unlock website, users have been left unable to unlock their bootloaders. Is there something like dc-unlocker for the Mate 10 (Pro)?

Yes dc-unlocker
As far as I know there's only one for the Lite, it didn't detect my phone
DC-Unlocker not supported the following devices:
WARNING:
Huawei P20 EML-xxx all versions not supported
Huawei P20 Pro CLT-xxx all versions not supported
Huawei Mate 10 ALP-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei Mate 10 Pro BLA-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei P10 VTR-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei P10 plus VKY-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei Mate 9 MHA-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
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...
Damn.
Dc-unlocker Give it a crack might still work, you just need to make sure you put the phone into management mode so it can read it phone. Just unlocked mine last night. Running magisk v16 working decrypted twrp and emui 8.0

The question is from 148 is this possible to Downgrade with Funky Huawei to lower, 142 for example and Root with DC unlocker ?

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.

Was this on a recent purchase? I really want to pull the trigger but don't want a permanently locked phone. Anyone know if they are shipping phones over 142?

I have mate 10 pro running 8.0.0.141(c636) and I just tried dc it didnt work just got unknown error 375 everytime it tried to read it.
Has anyone tried BLA-A09 8.0.0.119(C567) I cant get dc unlocker to even recognize my phone.
Used DC Locker today on BLA-A09 8.0.0.111 fresh out of the box.
I followed these directions:

https://www.dc-unlocker.com/how-to-read-huawei-bootloader-unlock-code
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.

I got it to work. I just had to change it from modem to phone
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

[Solved] Mate 10 FRP Locked, Phone Unlocked

so I was trying to update to EMUI 9 using Beta Flashy and I forgot to reflash stock recovery after flashing root via TWRP to get Flashy to work, so after the update, it couldn't reset, and when I checked bootloader, FRP was locked and now its stuck in bootloop. can anyone provide me with a method to fixing this issue without requiring me to pay the absurd amount that FunkyHuawei and DC Unlocker charge for restoring?
thank you
edit: solution here
Try Dload method and go back to EMUI8

I read this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73556776&postcount=24 saying that restoring the oeminfo partition should get it to work (don't worry, I still have my bootloader unlock code), but I can't find any images for the Mate 10 (ALP-L29).
Can anyone provide me with one? If not, can you provide me with a method to fixing this issue without requiring me to pay the absurd amount that FunkyHuawei and DC Unlocker charge for restoring?

Have you tried factory reset from stock recovery?
Flashing someone elses oeminfo will not help you. All it will do is lock bootloader and change your unlock code. (that thread is for Mate 9 on Nougat where oeminfo can be flashed without breaking anything. On Oreo and higher it uses oeminfo to calculate unlock code. But it also uses the imei that's embedded in oeminfo to calculate it. If you flash someone elses oeminfo your imei in oeminfo will not be the same and unlock code will change)
You most likely didn't do anything wrong. Updating stock firmware will replace your recovery with stock recovery. If it got that far in installation that is?
FH should work but it cost a lot. DC does not work since June so don't bother with it.
Else you can try service firmware from androidhost.ru.

Wait, you were on B128?!
That's from December 2017/January 2018. And that's the reason why it won't downgrade. It has old bootloader, and you are now on new bootloader. (Since Pie has new bootloader and it flashed).
Try a more recent build, like B139 or B140
You can also try downloading from androidhost.ru using JDownloader, it seem to ignore the limit.

It's just that B128 has old bootloader, and Pie (Including Oreo firmware from June and forward) has new bootloader. You can not downgrade from new bootloader to old bootloader.
So that's most likely why it fails to flash B128.
And you would only be able to update Pie using NoCheck recovery/TWRP, which is impossible to flash as you are FRP locked.

B135 should be able to install. It's new bootloader.
Check the instruction pdf that's included in the firmware, it will show you the directory path to use. And if you need to use microsd or USB OTG to SD adapter or something.

yeah i did, it was relatively easy. just go to https://androidhost.ru, download the version for your phone, and when you unzip, you'll find a folder with instructions on how to flash. easy process, although keep in mind, this process will relock your bootloader (if you already unlocked it).
if you did unlock and it relocked, firstly, check your email if you still have the unlock code buried somewhere in your deleted emails, and if not, then check out this guide, should help you find your unlock code. it worked for me, and only cost $5 or so.

Need help on Mate 10

Hi,
I have just got a Mate 10 from my friend, and I have looked around for 2 days but now I am lost. I am not quite sure what to do with my bootloader and how to update the rom to the latest version. My phone version is ALP-L29C636, 8.0.0.125, Phone Relocked. I am aware that Huawei changed their bootloader unlocking policy and some third-party services, but the steps are all over the place. Could someone please advise me what to do now? Thanks in advance for any help/suggestion.
You stated that the bootloader was relocked. This implies it was unlocked at some point. Do you still have the bootloader code or can you get it from your friend?

Thanks for your post. It was quite long ago, and he did not keep it I wonder if I could use eRecovery method of FunkyHuawei to update the rom.
I have decided to go with eRecovery method of FH, and now my phone is downloading 9.0.0.108. Hoping everything is going to be fine *fingers twist
*update: it took quite long but my phone is now on Pie.

your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted huawei p9

Hello i have bought P9 for cheap form some guy who ( i think bricked the pohone) when you try to Turn it on the message pops out Like the Title, SO i searched online and yeah i found some guides but problem is they all need to recognize device in Usb, I cant recognize my device on Usb when i put it on Usb first it was Printer ( then i try to Delete drivers and manualy install Huawei p9 drivers but noting) now when i put it on usb i hear the sound in windows but i cant find it so i had to Device menager and i think it's ABD something. + when i hold Volume down And put usb to enter fast boot it says Phone unlocked Frp unlocked. So any help ? what shall i do?, I know i need to Wipe whole system on phone ( or something like that ) and install new one but i cant when i cant connect my phone to usb, Ps Sorry for my bad english

Your Bootloader is unlocked - if you would ever want to hack the phone, you will need the unlocked Bootloader
And be aware that Huawei does no more provide Bootloader keys, those who want to unlock Bootloader must go for paid alternative services

You should find and install Huawei drivers and HiSuite - it usually installs automatically...
Have the phone switched off, onnect to PC by USB, press and keep pressing Vol- and voot by Pow - it should boot to Fastboot, on the bottom it has to display if FRP and Phone +Bootloader) are locked or unlocked.
PS From your first post it seems you already checked in Fastboot and found that indeed FRP and Bootloader are unlocked

Few comments
1) If you connect to the particular WiFi from System, phone will remember and should automatically connect to the same from eRecovery
2) Try another USB cable, another USB port or another PC
Also, when USB cable is connected, check if phone asks you anything to confirm
If you try to connect from HiSuite, it will give you guides what 'to do'
3) Unlocked FRP causes the 'unsecure,' note at booting.
But as long as your Bootloader is unlocked, better keep also FRP unlocked (unlocked Bootloader with locked FRP makes no sense)
4) Unlocked Bootloader and FRP are not 'dangerous' - only if you go yourself and flash something wrong or wrong way
As already wrote, hackers prefer unlocked Bootloader.
Also if you anyhow brick the phone, you will need unlocked Bootloader to flash the fix.
Moreover, locking Bootloader also requires certain expertise to do it safely, so I really suggest you to keep it as that at the moment (until you solve PC connection and become familiar with ADB and so

Thanks for the replays very much . Well i played a little and i installed ADB drivers and i updated my device to Android device in device menager. I connected with power shell with ADB platrofm and I can only use Fastboot ( coz i cant enter in the system and enable debuging ) So now im downloding new rom Europe nugat one, 1.7 gb... Can i Delete System with Fastboot? and then Flash new with it? Or shall i just Dirty flash it over this one with Fastboot?. Im in fear if i delete whole system with fastboot that my phone will be totaly bricked and i cant even use Fastboot anymore?

What is your current Huawei stock version?
I thought you could boot to System...
From Fastboot, execute the following commands and copy/paste the answers
Code:
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
fastboot getvar vendorcountry
fastboot oem get-build-number
fastboot oem oeminforead-SYSTEM_VERSION

Here it is picture down. Well no i cant enter system or anything only fastboot with ADB, well i bought this phone used cheep 40 euros guy told me he bricked him and dont know to fix except that everything works ( i hope so ) now i need to unbrick phone i did it on s3 neo long time ago with huawei is harder :s
I have the same problem with my Huawei p9. It was unlocked by oneclickroot, with magisk 18. I'm not bothered about the unlocked bootloader or from, as the phone is rooted and works well. I just want to get rid of the warning and time delay, when I turn the phone on. Does anyone know what files need to be deleted to get rid of it and if possible the time delay, which I suppose is only about 10 seconds ,but very annoying.

Ok, so you are on cust c900, MM b166 build
i) You must first upgrade from c900b166 to c900b182 - follow this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75855436&postcount=612
From that guide you must do only steps (7) and (8) - they describe DLOAD method for installing (in your case upgrading to) EVA-L09c900b182
ii) Once you will be on c900b182, you have to rebrand to cust c432 from where you will receive OTA upgrades to Nougat firmwares - follow this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72153575&postcount=2
This is assuming your phone is single SIM, aka L09 (not dual SIM aka L19) - so, is your phone single SIM L09?
Actually, guide from (ii) covers both cases L09 and L19.
But in step (i), for L19, you would need to install EVA-L19c900b182, while the guide describes and gives the download for EVA-L09c900b182

Guys, iif you don't like that warning - then never unlock Bootloader and never do rooting, etc
You can only get rid of that warning by relocking your Bootloader (it will lock also FRP).
BUT, re-locking Bootloader triggers Hard Reset - with Hard Reset you would loose Magisk, root , etc
EVEN WORSE, Hard Resetting with the root, may brick the phone
Do you really want all that?
If you don't like this warning at boot, you should have stayed with locked Bootloader and with stock firmware, without rooting, etc
This thing has been anwered/discussed elswhere and zillion times (hence IMO, people need to read, get informed and think in advance, and those who are so iritated with this warning note at boot must not go in modding the phone)

No problem, after upgrading to Nougat everything will work
Im pretty sure that if you buy Huawei (if they still sell P9) from your mobile provider, it will for sure come with Nougat
Btw, there is something strange with that c900 cust, if you dig to old XDA posts, you will see that c900 was popular few years ago, people thought it was kind of "generic' intermational cust and many rebranded to c900 from regional custs - but later rebranded back (usually to c432 European or some other like Mediterranean or Latin America ) because all other custs were upgraded to Nougat except that c900. Not sure if Huawei was ever selling phones with c900, or it was only used for the phones bought in China (cheaper) and rebranded then for international market (all languages, getting rid of Chinese bloatware)
Nevertheless, don't worry and escape from c900. IBtw, it is even possible to rebrand and upgrade from Lx9 to AL10c00 Chinese Oreo (it comes with ALL languages), and to get it fully working (but some patches must be applied) - eg, I'm writing from my P9 with such Chinese Oreo (and rooted by Magisk)
Regarding to L09/L19 trays - yes, they are as on your pictures. You can put L19 tray into L09 and vice versa but on L09 you cannot (I was trying by rebranding L09 to L19) make it work to recognize that second SIM (from the hybrid slot)
So it seems that differences between L09 and L19 are not only in software but also in hardware (and not only in the tray) - L09 has NFC and L19 does not have, people tried also rebranding L19 to L09 but still they could not switch the NFC on
That is, for those who don't use two SIMs neither NFC - they can rebrand from L09 to L19 or vice versa and everything will work fine, with no 'visible' differences in the firmware
PS: You see now why unlocking Bootloader, rebranding, rooting, etc - all require to have Bootloader and FRP unlocked

I never said that you bought 'fake' P9, I just said that c900 cust is dead locked to b166 (although there wad also c900b182 but seems that Huawei didn't even push OTA update to that)
And I said that by the procedure, if your bricked phone will allow, you should first get c900b182 with probably already unbricked phone (hope it will boot)
You can pull SD card out and prepare the required DLOAD folder on the PC or another device
If things won't work you can go for DC Unlocker, credits 15 Euros (TG, I never needed to use but if you search on XDA you will find happy users whom the tool unbricked their phone when nothing else worked or they didn't know/didn't want trying on their own:

In post #12, part (i) there is a link to guide that installs c900b300 (sorry, not c900b182)
Again, I said that you prepare DLOAD content on the extetnal SD card by pulling it out of the phone and putting to some adapter and to PC or to another Android device
I wish you good luck. If you don't want or can't do as instructed, maybe better you go for DC Unlixker, you pay them and they have to provide you service, answers, etc

Mate 10 Pro BLA-L09 8.0.0112(C652)

Hi, just wondering if anyone can help me.
Ive just bought this phone refurbished . Its arrived in immaculate condition, but the problem is I can not get it to update the firmware to EMUI 9.
I have contacted customer services at Huawei and they have said that I cant update the phone OTA as it has been a demonstrator phone, even though its unlocked and works OK.
They want me to send it off to the service centre.
What can I do to flash the phone to the latest EMUI 9.1 firmware for the UK?
I dont want to put EMUI 10 on as I want to use mirrorlink for my car.
Can this be done or is it better to send back to service centre?
Thanks for any help.

Try inserting the sim card. Enable 4g conection and wait 1 minute. Then try to find update with the phone. That was a solution for me.
Also, i think in this versión you can get easly the bootloader Code. If you update, It Will be so difficult to extract it.

Thanks for the reply.
I have tried to update with the sim card inserted, it does not work.
I contacted huawei and they said that the firmware was for demo phones, so can not be updated in normal ways.
If I unlocked the bootloader would this help update? I have not heard of this.

If you unlock the bootloader, then you will be able to rebrand it to the European version (c432) and update it normally.

Hi, Thanks so much for the information.
Given I have not done this before, could you give me any advice on how to unlock the bootloader and then rebrand to the c432 version?
Im guessing that I can then update to emui 9.1 once the normal European version is on the phone.
Thanks again for any help
Huawei stopped giving BL unlock codes long time ago so it cannot be done currently, try talking with funkyhuawei to see if they can help.

You can use HCU/DC-Phoenix to get the unlock code (it should cost about 4-5 €). Then you could use HWOTA8 tool to rebrand it for free (you can find the tool here on XDA).
@paul1777 Did you manage to get this fixed as I have the same issue with a refurb mate 10 pro phone (amazon warehouse deal by any chance?) also c652 and huawei have been no help
