Hi,
I have a problem with my Huawei P9 that I bought used. I realized during the reset that the Google account is blocked, but I no longer have the number of the person to whom I bought the phone.
I tried the videos to bypass frp, but I do not have access to the menu "help & feedback" (3:20 in the video)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSLJchfjQkM
I think that rom includes a new patch security :crying:
I'm looking for a way to install TWRP to change the rom and go Cyanogen to bypass FRP or attempt a downgrade of the official rom.
The concern is that my computer is not detecting the phone. A warning message tells me that the usb device is not recognized. I think it's a security of Huawei not to have a user use adb or other commands to change rom.
I think the bootloader is lock.
Do you know a way to bypass frp on huawei phones with the latest security update or is there a way to change rom with a bootloader lock phone and no possibility to go into the settings to allow the enable usb debbugging (since I'm stuck when I start the phone)
Thanks
Can you boot in system?

How could he flash with the locked FRP?!
Btw, once you are (already) on AL10 Oreo, you don't have OEM Unlock option in Developers menu.
But to rebrand by HWOTA7, you needed FRP and Bootloader unlocked.
Moreover, even on AL10, if you boot to Fastboot you would see that FRP is unlocked.
And there is an attribute in one of the system XML files, if you enable it (root required for editing) you will unleash the previously hidden OEM Unlock option in Developers menu (ie, then you would have OEM unlock option in Developers menu just like in Nougat)

Look at this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/bought-phone-ebay-registration-wizard-t3840803
Similar case with the second-hand P9, where previous owner did not remove his Google account before removing his SIM card and giving the phone.
Read post #1 and then post #7 till the end - solution was DC Unlocker/Phoenix with the price of 15 Euros credits.
PS:
- When doing Factory Reset you should either had original SIM from the previous owner, or he had to remove himself his Google account(s) from the phone
This way phone reacts as if it was stolen (with the SIM card protected by PIN, and when the thief then removes original SIM and tries to bypass Google and FRP protection)

Thank you everyone for your reply !
I do not understand how this paid service will solve the problem and not me (with all the knowledge available to xda volunteers)
Does DC Unlocker have privilege to unlock the bootloader with Huawei?

Ok thanks, I'll try their tools and I'll come back to post on this tread the result for the community
It works
Great !
The software is easy to use and i pay 15€ for unlock my Huawei P9.
I click on the unlocking button after putting my phone in fastboot mode and immediately, the phone reboot and makes a factory reset low level.
I think DC unlocker find system flaw that they alone know.
I do not know which version of android had the phone and which version of the security level but for this rom the security level of android is February 1, 2017 and the android version is 7.0 with EMUI 5.0.
Knowing that I could not bypass with 2018 methods found on youtube or xda, the phone downgraded to another version of android.
I think that their software finds a flaw for downgrade with the bootloader lock and that remove the frp protection
Thank you zgfg

Thank you for confirming and reporting your experience, it might be useful for somebody else (in that another thread I gave you link in the previous posts, it also worked for another user)
Btw, now when you opened FRP and Bootloader, did you upgrade to the relevant latest Nougat, or do you consider going for AL10 Oreo?

This is my second phone and I am looking to stay on a stable system and get used to EMIU. If i like EMIU, it will become my main smartphone.
I will make the OTA update that Huawei offers and stay on Nougat

Ofc. I actually also like EMUI
Btw, EVA-AL10c00 b535/b539 is also EMUI
Stock firmware already contains international languages, just few patches are needed to get
Mob NW working
Playstore installed
and then can optionally come
Magisk root
Face unlock (n/a on Nougat)

Hello All.
I am relativly new to the XDA forum. Mostly i read stuff here, to get very good infos about problems you can run into, and i was able to solve them by reading some threads here. So really glad something like this exit ! Now i think i need to be a lil bit more active inside XDA to get more precise answers. I am a bit confused about the topic: "Bootloader Unlock". So i don´t know which solution might be the best to acomplish my task : get "bootloader unlock" / "root" & "TWRP" on my Huawei P10.
This is my Model :
HUAWEI P10 : VTR-L09
Firmware : VTR-L09 8.0.0.382
Since the official-Huawei sites which provided the "Bootloader Unlock" has been closed, i only found these non-Huawei sites, which promise to provide the "Bootloader Unlock":
1.) Ministry of Solutions ( hxxps_//ministryofsolutions.com/huawei-bootloader-unlock-paid-service-htm )
2.) Global Unlocking Solutions ( hxxps_//global-unlocking-solutions.miiduu.com/bootloader-unlock-codes-choose-model-below )
3.) Funky Huawei ( hxxps_//funkyhuawei.club/buycodes )
4.) Huawei Sim Unlock ( hxxps_//xxx.huaweisimunlock.com/huawei-unlock-prices.html#prices )
5.) DC - Unlocker ( hxxps_//xxx.dc-unlocker.com/ )
6.) HCU - Client ( hxxps_//hcu-client.com/features/ )
(can´t provide Links, because new user)
I guess these "pay"-method services are the only way to get your codes for the "Bootloader Unlock" !? Can anyone confirm, that these listed-services, or some of them works ? (Sadly DC-Unlocker didn´t worked for me. Maybe i´ve done something wrong)
a.) Is it correct, that you need to rollDown from Oreo to Nougat to unlock your bootloader ? (i got Oreo on my phone)
b.) You can´t even think of to "root" your phone and get "TWRP" on it, before you don´t unlocked the Bootloader ? (Or are there maybe other methods to get "root" & "TWRP" onto P10)
It would be great, if someone can give some hints, expirences, or Links to another threads which handles this topic. When on both questions a.) & b.) the answer is = true, so my biggest problem than is, to get my phone unlocked (Bootloader unlock) !
Thanks in advance

No! You still can unlock your bootloader with Oreo installed. You just need the unlock code.

Yes, you need TWRP to root your phone, because you need to flash either SuperSU or Magisk. With stock recovery it's not possible, but you can flash stock recovery after you rooted, if you wish.
This are the direct anwers to your questions, now I'll go a bit further:
Unlock:
DC Phoenix is the only tool which I confirm it's working to unlock the phone.
You're right, Huawei stopped to provide the unlock code to "provide the best expierence for all users". I call this bull****, since DC Phoenix and FunkyHuawei are driven by Huawei.
But if you want to unlock, the only way is to pay - and DC Phoenix works (don't ask me how, I never used it, I just read many posts about it) - it's also cheap with $4.
NOTICE: AN UNLOCK WILL CAUSE A FACTORY RESET!
TWRP:
I can recommend the TWRP by @espaciosalter20 even it's just for testing purpose.
For me it works very well. This version also supports /data decryption (it's the only version for P10 atm, I believe).
Root:
The best way to root is with Magisk, because it's a safe method and the tweaks as systemless installed. This is good for passing SafetyNet, even if it doesn't work for every app (SafetyNet is a check if your phone is unlocked and rooted, some apps check it, mostly banking apps, but also games like Mario Run).
For this, you need to unlock and install TWRP. After this you can proceed installing Magisk.
- Just download the latest stable zip, the manager apk and also the uninstaller, if something went wrong.
- Make a backup of /system if it makes problems while or after installing.
- Install the Magisk zip via TWRP
- Boot the phone (takes a bit!)
- Install the Manager app.
- Done.
If you want to unroot you can either flash your /system backup or update your phone to the same or a newer version with my guide.
I hope this answered all questions!
Have fun with your P10 - and backup your unlock code if you got one!
Thx for the detailed answer !
I´ve done allready rooting with my current Honor 6 (yeah, its also a huawei brand). And it worked smoothly. Because i don´t needed huawei or any service to get a "Bootloader Unlock"-Code.
I got my unlock Code by an App !!! Don´t believe it ? Its called "HonorTuner" ( hxxps_//forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/general/unlock-code-via-honortuner-t3217651 ). Really a great App. But it seems it only works for older Honor-Devices. I wish something like that app would exist for Huawei P10. Anyways, just wanted to say, that doing the rooting on "P10" is pain in the ass (without a bootloader unlock code).
As said before, i didn´t managed to get a unlock code or to unlock the bootloader with the tool DC-Unlocker. Do you know whats the difference between DC-Unlocker & DC-Phoenix ? I think i need a step-by-step Tutorial to get it working with DC-Phoenix / DE-Unlocker. The last time, i tried it with DC-Unlocker it went wrong, and i lost money . Therefore i just want to be prepared, with a tutorial on it.
@absynteZero created a guide, maybe this helps.
Thx very much @Jannomag. I think this is exactly what i was searching for. I will try it out, as soon as i get some more time. Afterwards i will give you here some feedback about my P10 Bootloader unlock / rooting / -story
I am back. (or better to say my phone)
Now with a little help of this forum, i succeeded to "unlock the Bootloader". Thx to the provided links of "Jannomag". My TWRP version was from this links and the guide-how-to. It was very well explained.
So i can confirm that DC-Unlocker (DC-unlocker client software V1.00.1403) works with an Huawei P10 Oreo OS. I just paid 4,-eur to get 4-credits and with it you can read out the Bootloader Code. It is important
that your ADB Drivers recognize your phone. You can check it by typing into the CMD "adb devices", it should display you your phone serial number. Best way to install all nescecary drivers is to install the actual HiSuite, because everything goes automaticly. Next step is to Start DC-Unlocker, connect your phone to PC, find your phone inside DC-Unlocker (there must be shown a COM-x port with a number). After this step you need to log-in within DC-Unlocker Server (after you paid 4,-eur , you got a user name + password). Finaly you can click on "unlocking" and "read Bootloader Code". In few seconds you got your Code. You should copy n pasta this Code somewhere onto your SD-Card / PC.
After my Bootloader was unlocked, i was able to install TWRP and with TWRP i was able to install Magisk v18.0 , the newest version. I was also able to update my OREO ver. VTR-L09 8.0.0.382(C02)-FULL to VTR-L09 8.0.0.389(C02)-FULL with TWRP oreoupdate , Tutorial-2 ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/guide-manual-updgrade-to-update-oreo-t3758286 ). Mission accomplished

Can you please confirm it worked even it says in the warning:
WARNING:
Huawei P10 VTR-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei P10 plus VKY-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
I am asking as I tried to unlock bootloader thru https://ministryofsolutions.com but got refunded as "Huawei has updated security and its impossible to read bootloader unlock code on new firmwares. Only 30 euro service can unlock latest firmware bootloader. "
Thanks!
Trust me ... as long as you have an Oreo OS, you are able to read the Bootloader Code. Its seems its not a big deal for DC-Unlocker. And in comparison to 30,-eur ... 4,-eur seems much cheaper . I really don´t like these methods and i am angry Huawei closed their possibility to get a Code from them, i was forced to use such a service. However, the first time i tried DC-Unlocker it didn´t worked because i was unknown about the procedure. I lost 15,-eur. And gladly i found help on this forum here. With some detailed guides / tutorials it worked for me on a second try. Give it a try. You really need to follow the instructions in the guides. Thats it.

Hi,
Have you used DC-Unlocker tool or DC-Phoenix? (Not shure about differences)
Here is what Dc-unlocker support told to me: (My info: P10 Vtr-L09. 8.0.0.381 (C432).)
"We do not have bootloader unlock service at all. Chances to read bootloader unlock code from your mobile version on our tool is very low as well."
So I'm noy sure to try...

It is really sad that there is no central point for finding the information about unlocking the boatloader for P10 phones.
I used LOS, CM, AOSP, CAF and cousins for more than 5 years on at least 6-7 devices and now feel completely helpless to be able to use OpenKirin. On XDA P10/P10+ forums lots of posts are outdated as they are pre Oreo updates and on OpenKirin chat it is a no-no question.
Just not sure how the development is supposed to stay alive longer for these beautiful phones...

You should be able to use DCUnlocker, but you may need to downgrade first (my guess is to a firmware version before July 2018). Downgrading can be done with the dload method, but it works only with specific firmware versions, check: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78558134&postcount=41
A new unlock method is also available via the Big Huawei Exploits telegram group. This is free but a bit complicated.

Look for @huaweihax on Telegram.
Guys,
You don´t need a downgrade, at all !!!
You just need to download DC-Unlocker. Read the Links of the guides in the first posts. Thats it . Don´t waste time downgrading VTR-L09 to Nougat. Just start unlock with OREO. And whats the Problem here ? 4,- eurs ?? C´mon. Buying a "Kebap" for 4,-eurs or geting Bootloader-Codes for 4,-eurs. Think about. I also mentioned whats really important & all posts before explained everything. Nothing more to say. I also had an email conversation with the support team from DC-Unlocker. They told me the same....but i think the guy for the support don´t know everything (because he is not the dev, of course). So in the end its your descition. I can confirm that i read out Bootloader Code on 2x Huawei P10 : C02 & C432 Phones with both Oreo OS on it with DC-Unlocker !!! ... Nevertheless i wish you success & braveness.
(Please...nobody can destroy his phone. Why this panic ? It is a "read out" not "writing". Just reading out a Code for a Bootloader. You can get panic when you are "writing" f.e. new recovery.img / new OS, and so on. This can destroy your phone if you do something wrong. I allready get into Bootloop, no boot into OS etc. Than i got into panic. But this is a different story)
Hi there, i can confirm similar to sledgehammer, the DC Unlocker worked for my P10plus already with OREO, i was able to read the bootloader code. The latest DC Unlocker version shows detailed the procedure to correctly read this code. You simply have to follow these instructions. the 4 EUR was it worth.
@Sledgeham @dc_01 What was the security patch of the oreo versions you unlocked with DCUnlocker? Were they before July 2018?
No patches, just used software that was on the phone (i bought 2nd hand). These 2x Huawei p10 phones were "vanilla". No Bootloader unlock, no ROOT etc. Just as it is. First phone was: VTR-L09 8.0.0.382 (C02) and i MANUALLY UPDATED this to VTR-L09 8.0.0.389 (C02) (after Bootloader unlock, with TWRP). Second phone was: VTR-L09 8.0.0.376 (C432) and i MANUALLY UPDATED this to VTR-L09 8.0.0.379 (C432) (after Bootloader unlock, with TWRP).
I think security patch was written something with 01.01.2019 and the other was something dec. 2018. But i didn´t pay much attention onto this dates. I think the exact dates you can get from the ROM vers. which was provided on a specific date, if its important for you. In my opinion get "Bootloader Code" with Dc-unlocker from OREO shouldn´t be that hard. For me it was much more work to find out which version i can update manually (C02 and C432).

Thanks for your answer. I am trying to find out why some users report that DCUnlocker works and others that it doesn't. In July Huawei patched a vulnerability that allowed retrieving bootloader codes, so I thought this may be the key. But apparently it's not!

hi there, i did the bootloader task in November 2018, at this time, the phone had applied the latest firmware. So it should be beyond July 2018. I suggest, give it a try. The worst that can happen: you may lose 4€. For me it worked with a second try, because i did not follow the instructions correctly. So you need to set USB to manufacturer mode ( see DC homepage ) to allow DC app to recognize your phone. When following correctly, the thing is done within seconds.

After unlocking the bootloader, can I still roll back to stock and receive official OTA updates from Nokia?

Generally there is a check and ota updates aren't allowed for unlocked bootloader. You should be able to download the update and sideload it.
So just to confirm, if i root my N7+, i lose my warranty and even if i revert back to stock and relock the bootloader then i still won't receive OTA updates and my warranty will still be gone?

I was able to update OTA just fine with bootloader unlocked using stock recovery. The check might be of you root, but I'm not sure.

This questions should be adequately asnswered by official support.
The warranty agreement states that it doesn't cover damage caused by modified software. In real terms that means bricking your phone, in actuality it depends on what they categorise as such.

The unofficial unlocks aren't registered to Nokia and they probably have no way to check that it was unlocked. So, lock the bootloader and you should be good for warranty.

Is there really no possible way to unlock the bootloader without paying?
I'm not willing to pay for something that might not work...
Edit: even worse. I would have to pay 7$ (but out of stock, wtf?) to have someone I don't know remotely take over my computer.

There's currently no way you can unlock without paying. There are 2 options though. If you have a Nokia Care around you, you can convince them to flash an older version of software (before August 2018). Then you can simply buy the unlock key and use it.
Else the remote is the only option. I can offer those too (but for $8). I have some good reviews from people if that helps. I know it's still dealing with strangers and for your safety and security, you can run Windows inside a virtual machine (Virtual Box and VmWare do good). And that ensures that the remote person will only have access to the guest Windows which won't expose your host files in any way. You can destroy the guest install after that [emoji106]

I want to refresh my phone but I have yet to unlock the bootloader. Ive a few questions if anybody can advise please
If I want to unlock the bootloader and root the phone, I'll obviously have to wipe the phone during the process and lose data etc. I downloaded Swift Back up - which backs up to G Drive. Would it be possible to restore some/if not all data after I put say Lineage OS on my phone?
Or does anybody have any suggestions to back up my stuff before I go through the process to root. I suppose one way would be to manually drag/drop anything across while connected in Windows.
Any thoughts please?
Bootloader must be unloaded!!!

Nokia 7 plus - root and unlock
Hi guys, I need to root and unlock bootloader of a NOKIA 7 plus.
Could you please help me?
Thanks,
I read somewhere that you can not unlock the Bootloader on any Huawei devices if you have the January 2019 Security Patch Update. Also you can not rollback or flash previous updates. Is this true? I did get my unlocking code before they closed the website. But I did unlock my Bootloader at that moment. So is it still possible to unlock my device?
Thanks.

I tried downgrading my Huawei p8 lite 2017 to Android 7 so I would be able to partition my SD Card as mixed Storage, but the System Updater stops at 5% and the Update fails.
Thats why I assume, that you can not downgrade, but I haven’t had the chance to use HiSuite (maybe this would have done the trick).
Unfortunally I can’t really help you in the bootloader unlocking part, because I don’t have a bootloader unlock code and my old code fails(had to relock my bootloader after bootloop in August 2018).
But I think you should try unlocking if you haven’t already and you have no problem with data loss.
If your phone is boot looping try:
-shutting phone off
-[Dangerous]put phone in freezer for 2-3 minutes (I don’t know why, but this seems to help my phone)
-turning phone back on
still in bootloop: You have to relock the bootloader
---Why My Phone Got Stuck In Boot Loop---
I always had that theorie, that my phone got stuck in bootloop, because I didn’t reboot after unlocking and instantly flashed twrp.
I think there was an error while installing twrp, wich I didn’t notice.
Can someone share the unlock code for Huawei PRA-LA1?
every phone has another code,why you need it?
I was trying to rebrand and convert my phone to dual sim, only this can't be done on Pie and FunkyHuawei didn't make this known. And since I hit this issue out they are not responding to my emails anymore. Which sounds par for course with them from what others are saying. Anyway, I needed to downgrade to oreo to continue with the rebrand but oem unlock feature in developer mode was greyed out. So I did a factory reset but the oem unlock was still greyed out afterwards. And now when I go into fastboot, it is showing the phone as unlocked but FRP as locked. And I can't do anything in fastboot now as a result. Is there any way to unlock FRP again?

Well it seems firmware finder was my friend on this occasion. I found a load of folders and files with weird names on the internal storage and removed them. It seems these were were placed there by Funky as erecovery started working again, instead of twrp. And I wasn't getting the message to continue rebranding either. The internal storage was still read only, so I had a look at FF as a last resort. It recommended a higher version of the original so I went with that. It took around 3 hours for it to download and install but everything was back to normal afterwards. Including frp and oem unlock.
As for rebranding, well I'm no further on but I shant be trying it again until I can downgrade to oreo. If I could only figure out how to do that.

Honestly unless you really really need it. I wouldn't bother mate. Massive ballache
This is such a lame phone, can't wait to be rid of it.
Downgrading should be achievable by either hisuite or by a flash script. Literally just like installing a new os. I used the latter as hisuite bugged out after fiddling with host files thanks to fh. Search this forum for pats with the word numpty in title. I wrote an exact step by step on the process I followed
When you do the rebrand if you don't need dual sim, just use the standard debrand P20 tool and key the model and regions manually to ensure no **** ups.

If there's any dload firmware available for your device (search on androidhost.ru for your exact model and region), then you might have a chance to fix this issue, by downgrading/updating with the dload method.

First, keep your code (on several places, even printed on the paper), it is good for relocking/unlocking (you never know, some actions may lock the Bootloader back) for the lifetime of your phone.
You don't want to go buying the same thing again
Assuming you know how to enable OEM Unlock in Developer's menu and you are a little familiar with Fastboot, it is simple to unlock the Bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem unlock <your code>
If not familiar, and if not clear as below, search on Google how to:
- enable Developer menu by clicking 7 times to the build number in Settings/About
- enable OEM unlock in Developer menu
- install "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" to Windoze (smallest, self containing package with everything for ADB and Fastboot)
- reboot to Fastboot: keep pressing Vol-, then Pow button
Unlocking Bootloader triggers hard-reset, wiping also Internal memory. Backup as much as you can - use Google account, HiSuite, WA own chat backup, copy DCIM to PC, Contacts can be exported to vcard file, etc
Rebranding to AL10c00, upgrading to b540 Oreo, applying the neccesary Network patch to make SiM card(s) working - all is in deep details explained in the OP posts:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rebrand-update-tool-hwota7-p9-eva-t3820849
Read two times before you start, and keep the instructions opened on the PC while doing - wrong moves can cause (soft) bricks

Thank you, Brother, I have done all procedure and my device is now at Oreo, Build EVA-AL10 8.0.0.540(C00).
After doing all the required steps I have flashed Huawei's Official Recovery and enabled OTA, after that I have received an OTA update of 3 MB, Should I install the update or not?

It is safe, just some Patch02 (never found exactly what for).
If you don't mind, you can skip (you can disable OTA - see in OP)
If you go for, you must first flash back the stock Recovery, hence not having TWRP. Not sure anymore, maybe also stock Ramdisk, hence not Magisk
Patch02 will not affect Network Patch or Face Unlock (cool add-on, see OP)
If you didn't apply Network patch yet, etc - then accept Patch02 and continue with OP instructions.
If you already rooted by Magisk, then don't bother with Patch02, too much trouble preparing clean sheet for OTA and rooting again

Nope, VoLTE does not work.
Everything else, like location sharing and Ok Google are fixed with Network patch, but not VoLTE.
The guy who did the whole majestic work went tired (although he believed he was close to fix VoLTE) and gave up. Later he upgraded to newer Huawei devices with Pie, etc, and eventually moved away from XDA

It's not possible to remove the warning on booting "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" (IMO, it must have been commented somewhere in the OP) - that's price for the unlocked Bootloader.
But you must not relock Bootloader - it would trigger Hard reset, removing Network patch (even worse, it could also cause soft brick if TWRP or Magisk are installed)
15 credits for unlock in fastboot mode (not pay over sms)
