I updated to beta Nougat using a non-official-beta method and am somehow stuck with NRD90M test keys as my build number. The rom works ok for the most part, the only thing which doesn't seem to work properly is Themes.
Would now like to know what the appropriate process is to go to the new and official stock Nougat for EVA-L19. Thanks community!
So was I and I posted about it here and got the right advice to roll back:
forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/nougat-update-borked-p9-2-imeis-t3534530#post70475746
thank you zemblance! so it would appear that i would have to rollback to stock then only update to official nougat using the built-in updater huh?
Which recovery did u use ? I got that same problem when I flashed with 3.0.0.0 instead of 3.0.2.0

not sure which TWRP i used but its fixed now. i did the rollback to lollipop. now on B190 but now Themes is being wonky and I have no magazine unlock. :/
Flash 136 again, there should be two folders hw and dt that need to be in the dload folder too.
If they aren't there you could try flashing the l09 136 first then the l19 one straight after.

So I managed to get myself into this bind as well back in January, but I just didn't have the stamina to fight it and I've been running that crap ever since. Now I thought it time to take care of it.
This is the scenario. I got an unlocked EVA-L09 with TWRP 3.0.2.0 running build NRD90M test-keys and I want to "fix it" and update it to the latest version.
What do I need to do and in what order. Like, do I need to unroot/restore the Huawei bootloader, do I need to rollback to Android 6 before starting over, etc..?
And I can as well ask if the Huawei builds are preferable or perhaps there's some other ROM/mod out there worth using instead? I was on CM for years before I got the P9, though such a ROM is of course unlikely to ever be made for the P9, maybe there's a good mod..?

You need to download and flash the appropriate hw data update zip for the ROM that you installed.
And if you check out this forum you will see there is both Lineage OS (aka CM) and CM13 ROMs for the P9 :good:
Peace.

Eh, yeah, that I know, but I'm not going to try to figure this out myself again as last time I did, I spent two days trying to get my phone to boot at all - and that's a first since I started messing with ROM's back in the HTC Hero days.
And I thought the undocumented SoC made "real" custom ROM's on P9 impossible - or did Huawei release the doc's?

Ok, so get the 2 files for the ROM you want, and flash update zip then hw data update zip next.
It worked in either TWRP or dload method for me. Of course, for dload method you need to unzip and flash each zip in turn, or TWRP can flash one after the other. Flashing will relock your bootloader...
Well, if you note my post count and alike, I'm not really a newbie here, I got 10 years experience messing about with custom Android ROM's and about the same experience of general Linux experience on top of that, so when I don't wanna do this without some trustworthy information on the workflow, etc, you should get there's good reason. So posting replies like -Oh, just flash something, it'll work out!, that looks a lot to me you just having been really lucky not getting into the situation I did.
So I will repost the question I posed and hopefully someone with that know how will reply.

Just to clarify....
I had an unlocked EVA-L09 with TWRP, running build NRD90M test-keys, and I wanted to fix it....
So, I downloaded update.zip and update_data_full_hw_eu.zip and flashed them one after the other using dload method. It worked. That was my workflow.
Just trying to help out, don't get shirty about it....or you can wait for someone who's been on the forum longer than me, or who has a higher post count than me. Btw, I've received help before from folks with very low post count and I know it's no indication or predictor of noob-ness.
Peace out...
*I* did the exact same thing and then spent the following 30 hours trying to get it to even boot.
And I really didn't want to be rude, but if I got that kinda post number, I'm not likely to ask for help with something like this unless I really needed it. As I said, I have a lot of experience of this stuff and I still messed up immensely trying this the first time, so I'm not even going to try before I have someone who really knows what *NOT* to do give me some hints on how to avoid getting into the same spot - because I'm not doing another 30h trying to save this phone if I mess up again, I'll just smash it and buy something else, like a used Nokia 3310, because it's just not worth the stress.
Hi Guys,
I really need help here. I am using Huawei P9 EVA-L19.
I once unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP and rooted my phone. After 1 day I using it, I tried to flash to unofficial emui 5 which is follow the instruction from here; https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/huawei-p9-eva-l19-android-7-0-nougat-t3532649
However, after I done flash it. I found out that there's a lot of application I can't access including my camera ( which totally gone from my phone ). I decided to flash back to emui 4.1.
The issue that I'm facing right now is, I can't even access to TWRP. I tried a lot of ways to install TWRP and try to boot. Nothing happen. I've tried to use Dload, I tried using CMD it seems never success.
Now, I really need someone to help me on this issue. I know there's a lot of people who facing the same issue that I'm facing right now. Or someone who already solve this issue please assist me. I'm already give up on this.
Thanks in advance.
Hello guys,
i did a mistake yesterday and accidently hit the update button of the official update dialog from mm to N on my p9. Because you cannot cancel it, it proceeded the whole process...
Now i'm stuck on the new Version and first problem were missing apps like updater, and camera?!
I was looking for the new buildnumber and it says NRD90M test-keys.
Previously i was on root but dont know the buildnumber (some MM), bootloader is unlocked.
I searched a lot on xda but did not find a similar problem with a solution that i would try.
Can anyone help me how to fix that problems? I read about a rollback but didnt find a way to do that. TWRP is loading if that helps in any way.
Goal is to get root to work with magisk maybe and an up-to-date nougat rom (and Camera back since 3rd party isnt that great).
If any other info is needed ill provide that.
Thanks in advance!
I did some research an tried a few more things.
Here's whats not working:
-flashing b136 with dload from paulobrian's thread. fails at 5% mark
-relocking bootloader with srk-tool and fastboot. resulst in: failed remote root type is risk
-flashing several other full versions
i flashed (succesfully) stock recovery following this tip: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67754200&postcount=4
system is booting but weird behaviour as described.
I read something about succesful flashing stock only with locked bl and only locking bl with stock recovery but this doesnt work for me.
Any tipps are much appreciated.
Hello, first time here but I need some help.
So I wanted to root my P10 (mainly for Viper) and I started digging around here and there (mostly in XDA). I followed few guides (on how to unlock the bootloader, how to flash TWRP, how to root...) but I still can't pull this off. Anyway, straight to the problem:
So as you can see I'm using P10 on Oreo (B360) and EMUI 8.0. I unlocked the bootloader using ADB & fastboot. Then I flashed this TWRP: link
So far everything went smooth and without any errors. I am able to boot into TWRP. So here I'm stuck trying to flash the root.zip (this one). Whenever I try I get the Error: 1 (as mentioned in the thread), however, I read here in XDA that on Oreo flashing boot.img bricks the phone? I saw several threads of people with bricked phones due to flashing boot.img. My question is - what do I do here?
I looked for other solutions like Magisk but from what I understood Viper4Android doesn't work on it.
Anyone... anything? I'd really appreciate any help.
If it's not possible (even though I've seen people with rooted P10s on Oreo...) is there a way I can revert back the changes I did so I can remove the warning message on bootup and possibly have my warranty back?
you Cant root it yet beacose there is no twrp for emui 8, so look and try some methodes root without TWRP
and why you wanna rooot emui 8, there is nothing for it, yet.
What do you mean? I already said I have TWRP and I'm able to boot into it without problems. I even linked the unofficial TWRP I flashed in my first post. Plus I saw few people here that have rooted P10s on Oreo. And finally all I want to install is Viper.
There is this TWRP by @espaciosalter20 : https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-emui-8-0-4-04-2018-t3773449
should work, support for data decrpytion...
I used MAGISK 16 to root my OREO EMUI 8.0 P10
-done....
about super root and supersu working on OREO EMUI 8.0 you have to ask in the ROOT thread.
about viper4android i don´t know..i don´t use it.
So, I have an Honor 5C (I’m in Europe, if that’s significant), I’ve been rooted for a while and today I wanted to install a custom ROM. After installing TWRP using the official app, (I tried it with fastboot, but no success) I downloaded the LineageOS 14.1 ROM and tried to install it. This failed, I got error 7 and started googling the cause. No success. Right now I’m just confused with all the different 5C models and apparently different EMUI versions. My questions:
1. How do I know what model I have? (NEM-L21, NEM-L22, NEM-L51 etc.)
2. What’s up with the EMUI versions? I know I had 4.1.2 and never got a notice saying I could update to 5.x, so how are people on those versions?
3. Same for the Android version, I was on marshmallow 6.0 but other people are on nougat?
4. I wiped everything and am unable to boot right now. What ROM must I download to boot again? And is it possible for this to be nougat, instead of marshmallow which I was previously on?
Thanks in advance, I’m very new to this scene and all the different models and versions are kind of overwhelming me
First of all, you shouldn't use the official twrp, because that once partially bricked my phone, and you should have used EliteTWRP for installing the roms, because it required you to back up before some partitions, that official twrp couldn't, also, to answer your first question, you find it out in your phone's settings app, in the About Phone section, but since you didnt look at that before you flashed and deleted everything, I don't know how to figure it out without the settings app, also diffirent region phones get diffirent updates, my dad's honor 6 never got an update out of 4.4.2, but some phones had access to newer versions(not by flashing custom roms), also you should download some dload things i dont remember how to do it, never done that myself, but for that I'm pretty sure you need to know if you're using NEM-L21, NEM-L22, NEM-L51 or something like that
