Hey everyone,
So, a couple months back I rebranded my EVA-L09 to a VIE-AL10 through the rebrand tool.
A couple weeks back I wanted to revert back to EVA-L09 to go back to Magic Rainbow v4 or v3.
I failed in trying to rebrand it back and ended up where I am now, I have TWRP installed, I can do the dload methods to install whatever, but I can't for the life of me get any ROM or firmware to boot. It either doesn't go past the "Your device is not trusted" screen or it hangs at the boot animation.
Extra notes: Yes I was on Oreo when I tried to revert, I am currently not on Oreo as I tried to flash a Nougat VIE-AL10 firmware to attempt to get the phone to at least boot to a usable state for the time being, however now it's stuck on a boot animation.
Would appreciate any help,
Cheers.
Update:
I tried to follow this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77161313&postcount=2
But as mentioned above the phone hangs on "Your device is booting now..." after HWOTA copies the Nougat firmware files.

EVA is P9, VIE is P9 Plus
Don't mix firmwares, you wll (no wonder if you really mixed), brick the phone
One procedure is for P9 = EVA (and this is P9 portal here):
rebranding from EVA L09/L19 to EVA AL00c00b535 and back
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/development/rebrand-update-tool-hwota7-p9-plus-vie-t3843930
The other is for P9 Plus = VIE (different phone, eg bigger display)
rebranding from VIE L09/L29 to VIE AL00c00b535 and back

Be more specific, confirm
- Your phone is P9 or P9 Plus?
If P9, was it L09 (single SIM) or L19 (dual SIM)
- On exactly which Chinese Oreo have you been (cannot be VIE, you must well know what you exactly had and what you were flashing), was it EVA -AL00c00 or what and which build number bXX it was
- Did you go to some Open Kirin/AOSP custom ROM or stayed on that stock Chinese ROM?
You first had to come back to Chinese stock Oreo, not downgrading to Nougat directly from Open Kirin / AOSP
- Downgrading consists of several steps, HiSuite to go to Chinese Nougat and then HWOTA7 to rebrand to eg c432 Nougat.
Up to each step did you exactly do when you got stuck in Booting?
-More precisely, if you downgraded by HiSuite to AL10c00 Nougat, did it boot successfully (or were you here stuck at booting)?
If that step was successful, which (full build name and number) you were flashing by HWOTA7 to rebrand to from the Chinese Nougat?
-Have you tried to switch off and boot again?
Have you tried booting to Recovery and do Factory reset and Wipe Cache and Internal mem and then tried to teboot?

Sure,
EVA-L09 is a regular P9. Not a P9 Plus.
I never honestly checked which Oreo firmware I was on. I downloaded the VIE-AL10C00B535 (8.0.0.535) firmware and used that.
Yes, at one point I did go to the OpenKirin AOSP ROMs. However, I was able to do the volume + & - + Power to return to Nougat and then re-flash Oreo. After this I stayed on the EMUI 8.0 firmware.
I did not use HiSuite as it never worked for me. It would always just tell me to go to a service center.
I did not use HiSuite. When I returned to EMUI 5.0.1 from eRecovery (?) Restoring over WiFi on the actual phone it booted fine and I then upgraded again to the Oreo firmware.
Yes, I have tried rebooting.
Yes, I have tried a factory reset.
When I tried to revert from a VIE-AL10 rebrand, my phone ended up getting stuck between an AL10 and an EVA-L09. Meaning that I can use the EVA-L09 TWRP but not an EVA-L09 compatible firmware or ROM. I can only boot AL10 firmwares or ROMs however they hang at the boot animation.

Guide you cited is for rebranding European P9 EVA to Chinese P9 EVA-AL10c00b535 - see attached screenshots from the guide, observe it is everywhere EVA-AL10, not VIE-AL10
Once again, it must be EVA before rebranding and EVA after rebranding.
VIE is different phone (different hardware - bigger display), P9 Plus.
If you didn't care about difference between EVA and VIE, maybe you really downloaded and flashed AL10c00b535 for VIE (P9 Plus) to your EVA (P9)

Details are important, not just when writing posts but really when reading guides and flashing, otherwise bad things can happen ;(
So please, consider again, did you really flash VIE AL10 to your P9 (5,2 inch display)?
(Maybe it worked somehow for AL10b535 because packages for Chinese P9 = EVA and P9 Plus = VIE are similar, but now when returning to Nougat it stays on VIE and doesn't boot)

I honestly can't remember how I did it now, it's been a while, but it did go through successfully, and it was working fine after applying the patch.
But yeah, as of now all I can use is fastboot and TWRP. That's all. I've tried flashing EVA-L09 firmware, it doesn't boot. I've flashed AL10 firmware and it gets to a boot animation, but no further than that.

Boot to Fastboot:
- connect by USB to PC and boot by: press and keep pressing Vol-, then Pow
Ececute from the PC side and copy/paste back your results (is Bootloader still unlocked, what the phone thinks it is current model, cust, build number)
Code:
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
PAUSE
fastboot oem get-product-model
PAUSE
fastboot getvar vendorcountry
PAUSE
fastboot oem get-build-number
PAUSE
fastboot oem oeminforead-SYSTEM_VERSION
@gamr13 Please enter the shown commands by @zgfg in Fastboot mode and tell us the result.
There is not much hope to restore your device after all that you have done wrong → but if you try, what we recommend, we may can recover it.
I can confirm: EVA-L09 is not the same device as VIE-L09 → you can not rebrand EVA-L09 to VIE-AL10, and it is not possible to rebrand VIE-L09 to EVA-AL10 - That causes a lot of problems and you should not be surprised if your device does not boot again.
If your original device was an EVA-L09 you can rebrand to all EVA models, but not to VIE models - That's why there are two threads - one for P9 and the other for P9 Plus.
If you flash oeminfos and related Firmware → it must match with your device!
But if you think, you can flash whatever you like, then your device get "bricked". And here we are now.
BTW: Rebranding back to your originally model can not be done with HWOTA7 - as long the device is on Android 8 ! First a downgrade from Chinese Brand Oreo to Chinese Brand Nougat is required → after this step it is possible to use hwota7 again to rebrand. I have written all the steps in separate Posts after the main Thread.
First we need this Fastboot mode information, then we can see in which status, on which firmware and which oeminfo your device is currently.
Then it's time to flash exactly this firmware with the correct method → for this step, wait for instructions from us.
Only when the device works again, it is possible to downgrade with the correct method and return to the original model, or whatever.
As long as the device is in a "brick", nothing works, since the "brick" must first be resolved.
If it is a "semi brick", a "hard brick" can happen as well, after that the device will be dead and without any function → It teaches you to be careful with flashing and get all the information before you flash anything.
We've also had other issues caused by users doing wrong actions - not knowing what they're actually doing. But both cases were solved successfully - which was not easy:https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/huawei-p9-potentally-bricked-t3841197/
Hey guys,
I've attached a screenshot below which contains all the commands and what I got from them below.
Note about the get-build-number, that was the most recent firmware I tried to flash out of literally 10 other firmwares I tried.
I appreciate everything you guys are trying to do to help me fix this problem. I'm currently trying to survive with a Galaxy S3 Mini, and it's not going well in the slightest.
Cheers.
EDIT: Just as a note, which may be obvious from the screenshots to you or not, the partitions are like Nougat, meaning I do not flash the recovery to ramdisk.

Looks promissing
It says EVA, not VIE - ok
Somehow you are on c900b182 which means MM (not Nougat) - did you rollback to MM?
In Fastboot screen, does it show in red, at the bottom, both Phone (=Bootloader) and FRP Unlocked?

Why didn't you wait, you attempted to rollback?
Now Bootloader is unlocked but FRP is locked (and you cannot boot to System to unlock OEM=FRP)
It can block you fir further flashing ;-(
Do you want to go to c432, is it L09 (Single SIM) or L19 (Dual SIM)?

This was around a week ago, and the FRP lock thing went away when I did the rebrand - as it's supposed to
But yeah, I can't boot the system.

Procedure for rebranding from c900b182 to c432 is here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72153575&postcount=2
Once on c432b182 you should receive OTAs to get back to Nougat.
However, procedure requires flashing OEMIFO, which most likely will be forbidden to you because your FRP is locked and you cannot boot to Systen to unlock OEM.
Which means serious brick
In that case you can try with DC Unlock (sorry, I don't know a better method), it will cost you 15 EUR (probably) and you must ask them for on-line help if needed

I was not writing you about getting the code but to use DC Unlocker to unlock FRP ( carefully read the story, posts #6 till #11, I gave you in the previous post)
Because their tool can unlock both FRP and Bootloader, but it costs more than just getting the Bootloader code
Personally I didn't use their tool (never bricked the phone or so to need it), and cannot help you about the tool further

[Guide] Huawei P10 Plus Debrand/Rebrand/Update for Oreo&Nougat "Updated 25.03.2018"
[Guide] Huawei P10 Plus Debrand/Rebrand/Update for Oreo&Nougat
This thread will be discontinued, because Huawei refuses to provide unlock codes in the future, because of security reasons.
A shame that after the support end of the device it will be quite useless, cause you don´t get any security updates and have no chance to make secure again, by flashing someting else.
I recommend you not buy any Huaweidevices in the future cause of that.
Here´s my P10 Guide, the steps are the same for the P10 Plus: Huawei P10 Plus Debrand/Rebrand/Update for Oreo&Nougat
Just use the following files for the P10 Plus instead:
TWRP for P10 Plus
@AndroidFilehost: HWOTA_VKY-L29C432_B365.zip (Oreo) MD5: 0858c05a98053ad5043dfaf7041ec54e

Did you already use this method before? Seems you messed up with the 1 of the 3 updatefiles. Especially the update_all_hw.zip which is only for the l29 or l09.
Did you try to update via firmware finder and did you make check with imei in that tool? That should fix your problems, if you use the FullOTA.

The FULLOTA in firmware finder says 'The firmware is not approved for installation'.
I have VKY-L09C432 which I converted to VKY-L29C432 and was on B170. I used the 3 update files from the the link you provided in step 2 'HWOTA_VKY-L29C432_B177.zip'. Was I supposed to change any of these files?

No connection to the mobile network after rebranding
Hi
I went through all your described steps and everything worked fine. However, I've got a strange problem.
I have different SIM cards available (multiple mobiles), but only one (prepaid from croatia) is working after the procedure. The ones from Vodafone Germany and Swisscom do not work.
They work fine on other mobiles. Everything else is working fine on the P10+. The SIMs not working, are displayed in the phone, but will not connect to the mobile network of any provider.
No available networks are listed. Both SIM-slots tested.
Any idea, where the problem could come from?
Thanks for your help.

You can still rebrand, but AL00 is already dual sim if that's what you were after.

There's a walkthrough for using HWOTA to rebrand to the L29 model: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p1...nvert-to-dualsim-huawei-p10-plus-vky-t3605071 Works very well, changed my Fido/Rogers L09 without any issues.

TWRP not working
Hi,
I can't get TWRP to work on my VKY-L29. Everytime I try to get in TWRP, I get into the normal Huawei recovery again. Phone's Bootloader is definitely unlocked and it also says that writing the TWRP was sucessful. I followed all the steps as they're written. Any thoughts on how to fix this?

I recomand you to not update yet,use HiSuite and connect your phone to your pc.I did get B170 using the cable and having installed on my pc HiSuite,so good luck.
Hello,
Tried following the guide but now my phone VKY-L09 shows up as a NRD90M with 2GB of RAM. followed the procedure many times now but still with the same results.
Doing the rebrand seems to work (if i do it twice on the update script it shows VKY-L29C432 but after booting up it still is NRD90M.
I can boot to fastboot/twrp/erecovery without issues.
Used this file HWOTA_VKY-L29C432_B177.zip
I am from Portugal and only need for the phone to have Dual Sim

Had a similar issue. Got round it by following this guide to rebrand then used the firmware finder app to install the latest available vky-l29 update. After that I unlocked bootloader again and flashed twrp and installed magisk.

Bootloop doesn't happen by itself - to get help you must describe which stock/custom firmware you had, were you flashing another firmware and which or trying to root, or you were changing something under root before it started to happen
Solution to unbrick highly depends on the firmware, etc - for firmware is needed full model, cust and number
Btw, does it boot to Fastboot, EMUI Recovery (or you flashed custom Recovery TWRP) or eRecovery?
The Phone model is Eva l19.
The software is shown în The video
The bootloader is unlocked and s-o is The frp.
I tried various versions of The software but The result was The same. Using The method update.app it was working to 5%, The says 6% and then back 5 % and then erron instalation.

Too small and not sharp - can you write what is your firmware version on your phone
Eva-l19c432b388
You say you were installing various firmwares - if you did, specially if you maybe combined various custs, then it was a road to mess
I would suggest you to carefully study posts OP #1 and #2 from HWOTA7 thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rebrand-update-tool-hwota7-p9-eva-t3820849
Forget (at the moment - later you could do if you wish but once you solve your Nougat) about changing cust and upgtading to Chinese Nougat.
Use the HWOTA7 method instead to change the cust/location to c432 (to clean up) and to install one of the latest FullOTA-MF stock firmwares, eg L19c432b505 or so
Be careful, use L19 only if your P9 is dual SIM, otherwise must be L09
Follow every detail (but adapted to your case), including Factory Reset and Wiping Cache at the end
I tried this method but i can't recover bootloader Code because hcu client doesn't work on my pc.

Hello I'm the proud owner of a VTR-L09 P10 with the oreo based VTR-L09 8.0.0.364(c530) firmware and an unlocked bootloader. I have tried many tutos across the internet but I still can't downgrade it to nougat in order for rebranding to VTR-29.
Can someone with matching conf or a close one who has succeeded in rebranding can help me with a working tuto.
Thanks in advance and....
HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!
First, you twist nougat and Oreo. Your phone is on Oreo and you wanted to downgrade to Nougat.
I don't know, why the downgrade didn't work for you, but maybe now it does with the correct understanding of versions (nougat is the older one).
If you're a bit experiment friendly, you can try something for me - but I really can't guarantee you that this will work without brick!
You need an SD card for this, don't try it without!
- Download your desired firmware from Firmware Finder. I recommend 8.0.0.382 for L29-C432, which I installed on my rebranded P10 yesterday.
Here are the links:
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G2323/g1699/v202186/f1/full/update.zip
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...l/VTR-L29_hw_eu/update_full_VTR-L29_hw_eu.zip
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...86/f1/full/public/update_data_full_public.zip
- Download my oeminfo file and put it on SD.
- Download and flash this TWRP. It will ask you for a password at boot, type your phone PIN.
- Backup your oeminfo with TWRP on SD AND internal memory, just to be sure.
- Now flash my oeminfo file with TWRP via Install/Use Image.
- Go to my guide and follow now Tutorial #2, Oreo to Oreo, exactly. You can use the TWRP version you already installed, but everything has to be like in the tutorial.
It should work, but, as I mentioned above, I can't guarantee it.
The worst thing which can happen is that you brick your firmware. For this, you should be able to reinstall an L09 firmware after restoring your oeminfo file via eRecovery.
But I think the recovery will stop installing L29 if it didn't work with the oemfile - if so, you just need to restore the oeminfo backup.
Don't boot into your L09 firmware with L29 oeminfo!

I tried to unlock bootloader via fastboot, a message showing up on adb command (unlock frp necessary...), can't enable OEM UNLOCK, always stay on grey.
Nothing is fine for me on this chinese firmware
Model : EVA-L09

EMUI VERSION : 8.0.0
ANDROID VERSION : 8.0.0

You say that you followed HWOTA7 instructions - did you really
1) Your screenshot shows model L09.
OP post #2 requores that you must rebrand (change location) from L09 (or L19, L29) to AL10.
You didn't rebrand, or it failed (how, why)?!
2) Your screenshot shows build number 8.0.0.046(OCS6).
Never seen any firmware like that.
HWOTA7, post #2, clearly describes that you must flash (after rebranding to AL10 c00), first b399sp17, and after b540.
Your build number is completely different?!
What you have is not result by following HWOTA7 instructions.
If you followed HWOTA7, you would have:
1) AL10 c00 b540 (not L09 b046 or what)
2) OEM/FRM would be permanently unlocked, with no OEM Loxk/Unlock option in Developers menu (not just grayed out)
3) You would have Playstore services preinstalled, you would just need to install Playstore apk
HWOTA7 OP post #3 describes how to rollback from (properly installed!!) AL10 c00 b540 Chinese Oreo back to Nougat (eg to L08 c432 b504)
But you don't have AL10 c00 b540, but instead something totally strange/wrong - I doubt that given eRecovery procedure will work for you.
You can try with HuRupdater (sorry, I never used and needed to use HuRupdater)

Sorry, really cannot help you then.
Unfortunately, since you didn't follow the guide but flashed some other firmware instead (you thought 'better' or what), you are in a specific situation, on your own, and only you should know or find how to deal with the phone and that Oreo firmware
As suggested in the previous answer, you may try with HuRupdater, but IMO, instead of further improvising (HuRupdater is very powerful but you can brick the phone), consider paying 15-20 Euros for DC-Phoenix or Ministry of solutions to safely downgrade to Nougat
After that, if you want Oreo, please follow the HWOTA7 guide carefully and in every detail (like others who now happily use the Oreo) - you will have stable Oreo AL10 c00 b540, debloated, fully working and with less battery consumption than Nougat
Also, rooted, passing SafetyNet, with fully working GApps, and ready for Open Kirin Treble custom ROMs (maybe they will work with your Oreo, too, but cannot tell you)
And if you would ever want to go back to Nougat, you would have a proven roll-back guide as in the OP post #3

Maybe I can help you...
I had the same issue just like you, even I read this post before I fix my phone.
First of all, the bootloader says the FRP-Locked, OEM Lock(or whatever says, i can't remember)-Unlocked.
On the Developer Settings the Oem Unlock option was greyed out.
Just like you.
So, reading this post [GUIDE] Debranding to C432 and updating to B361 (Nougat) for EVA-L09 i had a hunch...
What did I do to have my phone back?
1. My phone had the C432 oeminfo, so, I downloaded the dload-huawei-p9-eval09-eva-b136.zip (L09C432B136) in this post. Stock ROM dload file - P9 EVA-L09 B136
2. Copy the extracted dload folder to the external microSD card.
3. Now open the dialer app and enter *#*#2846579#*#* to open the project menu
4. Go to Software Upgrade > SDCard upgrade and confirm the update installation.
5. After the update, maybe shows an error at the final, let it be.
6. The phone restarts and boots with the L09C432B136, Android 6.0, and if you check the Developer options, the OEM unlock option is enabled. You can now lock or unlock your bootloader.
7. I need to update to the latest build and if i tried to check for an update, it says there is none.
8. I downloaded this firmware Download Huawei P9 B182 Marshmallow Update [Europe] I repeat steps 2-5, lock the bootloader, and search for an update... and update after update, I'm on L09C432B504 (Nougat)
Hope to help you...
Sorry for my bad english, I have no one to practice with...

There are Open Kirin Treble Oreo ROMs (RR, LOS) for Huawei/Honor phones:
https://openkirin.net/user_guide/openkirin-rom-installation-instructions/
Installation instructions require:
1) OK Oreo ROMs can only be installed over Huawei stock Oreo (not over stock Nougat)
2) OK ROM must be flashed by Fastboot, not from TWRP (btw, TWRP for Huawei Oreo is different than TWRP for Nougat because of different partitions names, sizes, etc)
There is also XDA thread about Open Kirin Treble ROMs (on P9):

First, go back to stocl Nougat, and please read again my previous answer - I gave you link for HWOTA7 method for rebranding from stock L09/L19 to AL10 and then upgrading toAL10c00 b540 Oreo
If you don't like unlocked FRP, then go back to stock Nougat and re-lock Bootliader (and then lock FRP back).
But as long as you do rooting, installing custom ROMs, or rebranding to that AL10, you must have unlocked Bootloader and for unlocked Bootliader you must have also unlocked FRP

(Re)installing/OTA updating some stock firmwares lock back both OEM/FRP and Bootloader, but it depends on the firmware itself (Huawei who prepare them).
If you already installed latest firmware for your cust by eRecovery, you can only try to do Factory reset from stock Recovery or eRecovery
Otherwise, rolling back to Marshmallow (and after that updating again to Nougat) shoulf fix the problem with disabled OEM unlock option (I had it twice but in the opposite way, OEM was locked but its option was disabled)
However, having unlocked FRP is not a big trouble. You can still open Bootloader and root/flash, etc - problem would be if OEM option was disabled but locked - then you could not unlock Bootloader and flash anything from Fastboot
With FRP=Factory Reset Protection unlocked you (only) have:
- 'annoying' note that phone is not secure while booting
- ability to start Factory reset from Recovery and eRecovery (with licked FRP, Factory reset is only allowed once you login to the System, from Settings or Project menu)
- ability to unlock Bootloader and flash things
So, what if i wanna install Android 7 custom rom? How can i do it? Can i do it with TWRP'S special Open Kirin Edition directly from Stock Rom?
Can i upgrade my phone to Android 8 after i install Android 7 custom rom first or i have to do it with Rebrand / Update Tool first?
Because rebrand / update tool (or SRK Tool i am not sure) look so complicated and i am afraid to make hardbricked my phone... (i backed up my phone with HiSuite but i am not sure can i recover my phone with it if i unbrick my phone?)
I am using EVA-L09C464B389 rom now.... On the other hand, i cant be sure which AL10 (Oreo) rom is right for me, because when i search in russian page you offered, there is more than one alternative...
I hope i can explain what i mean with my poor English...

How do you install Noigat custom ROM? - decide which custom ROM you want to use and then find its documentation and learn there how it must be installed.
And/or, find the forum/thread about that custom ROM and read the OP posts, and ask your questions there
Which AL10 ROM you want to install...bxs on Russian forum there are alternatives? - If you want to follow XDA guide, then READ it and you will find answer there.
But if you want to follow Russian guide, then register to the Russian forum and ask your questions there
Good night and good by, I'm disconnecting from this thread and will no more read/answer - good luck
Dear @zgfg
First of all thanks for all your answers, but I am not use Russian forum same time with here. The page you advice me (in xda), and the application in there, using Russian webpage to dl stock roms... Sorry if I make you angry...
