Database Develop

A possible method for ANY P9 to update to Android 7.0

I have tried it and it works perfectly for my Huawei P9 EVA-L09C636B190. I think this method will work on ANY model of P9, any region.
I'm now on EVA-L09C636B320. With everything normal. No development version. I think it is offical. Now im trying to update to B361 with the same method.
Here's what you need:
Huawei Hisuit
Huawei firmware finder
Huawei updater
First, make sure your P9 is updated to the latest EMUI 4.1.1, then use the firmware finder, simply choose the 'common database', and enter your model number, such as 'EVA-L09C636', then click 'update' of the first version of B3xx, but dont download it.
Try to copy the download link 'http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1256/g104/v73968/f1/full/update.zip'
And delete everything after 'f1' make it like this ''http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1256/g104/v73968/f1'
Then you can use the method in this thread

And enjoy your new Android.

Ah I got a problem, I'm now on EVA-L09C636B320, when I'm trying to update to B361 it shows error....................
I'm not sure if the OTA works as there isn't any update I can find through "update phone" :/

there's only B320 then B361 for C636 .. any idea where I can find the B360 or other firmware needed?

Im on c02 and no update at this moment. Even with this Method i can update and there is 2 updates via update finder , tried both of them by dload method and still error at 38%

Depends on model

Hello there, I did every step mentioned by OP here and did the steps detailed in the linked post. Everything is going fine, firmware is downloading and if I'm lucky it will finish doing it in about 3 or 4 hours (yes, ****ty conection). Anyways, Firmware Finder found this EVA-L09C605B360 and I'm currently on EVA-L09C605B135 I can clearly see that it may work and have Nougat by the end of this day that but I'm concerned about this method and its safety; is it safe, can I trust in FF? Am I doing any damage or restricting this phone's future capability to receive OTAs? Like I said I got plenty of time to stop the update process if in any case my phone is going to be bricked or dead by flashing lol
I'm expecting your answers or experiences
Cheers.

So you can go from 320 to 360 and then to 361? (i'm L09-C636)
BTW super happy to finally have android 7, thanks OP

The awkward thing is no B360 for C636 ... Huawei is really toxic

Hi, thanks for reply
Unfortunately I'm not sure if OTA works or not. Because there's still no official update through OTA.
But the update for me works fine, no bugs found currently.

So that means if OTAs don't work we will have to update following the same procedure we followed here to update to a more recent compilation/version of the ROM? Thanks for answering!

im on l09c34b140 and with the method theres no update apart from the one i have (my one seems to be the latest). Would it work if i just used a c636 version or sth like that?

EVA-L09C02B137 to B340 Huawei Updater 2.0?

Hi guys,
I'm wondering whether it's safe to apply this update using the huawei updater software?
Will it delete my data or brick my phone?
Thanks in advance for any replies

How did You manage to be on B337? I'm stack on B137. Vodafone branding.

I tried that too man, also tried the huawei updater software but it didn't work because it isn't a 'full' file but an ota one.
I wish there was a way to do it, pretty much tried everything now apart from rooting which would scrub my data.

Did You try flash FULL B339 first? Maybe then dload to B430?
Any clue?

Im in same situation, tried 3 files from firmware finder, 339 and then 340. No entanto of them work amd Maybe is related with the file type, is an OTA só we have two solutions: wait or debrand

Debranding would mean loosing our data and it's hard to run a proper backup without having root and Titanium Backup. Man I wish there was a way to just apply the update, the file's there so it obviously exists it's just impossible to install it.
I reckon we're going to have to wait unfortunately, hopefully they'll release a full version soon. Waiting for OTA updates with Vodafone is a fool's errand. When I got the phone B137 had been out for a month or two and it still hadn't been received by my phone so I had to dload flash it. If they don't release a full flash (which hopefully they will) we'll be waiting for a long time

Seems like We will have to wait for official update...

Found solution!
Hi guys,
I managed to flash EMUI 5 onto my device using the Huawei Updater software, following this guide http://ministryofsolutions.com/2016...ui5-0-full-firmware-b339-europe-vodafone.html
After flashing B339 through Huawei Updater I flashed B340 through dload without loosing any data.
So great to finally have it

In firmware finder you need to make sure the option for OTA is selected in the settings in order to find the right B340.
I flashed the smaller b340 and then the larger file.
Seems like the build nu!her hasn't updated but the kernel version and security patch date have changed.
Haven't noticed any difference from B339 though.

There are 3 files, can you share the ones you used or the links? It has some kind of order, did you first used the one right next the b339 and then the last one?

EVA-L09C02B341
(http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php)
New update for Vodafone Nougat, not tested yet.

Hi all, I updated to L09C02B339 last week following the 2nd method, all went well. I have since tried to update to B340 and more recently to B341 using FF, putting the update file on dload folder. Phone said it updated on both occasions without an issue but it still says I'm on L09C02B339. How can I tell if I have actually updated to B341 ? Kernel says 4.1.18-g91bd370 [email protected] #1 Mon Feb 6 05:34:07 CST 2017. Does that mean anything to anyone ?

Huawei P10 Update

Hi. I recently got a Huawei P10 VTR-L29, european version C432, but I didn't receive any updates so far and I'm still stuck on B151. Tried to contact Huawei Support, but haven't got any response. Is there sonething I can do, like rebranding my phone to another european country like Germany (mine is purchased in Romania) or do something to be able to receive the B171 update for my region?

Use "firmware finder" from Google play.

If you dont want to take the risk, just wait for the offical F/W, if none , stick with the present one, only the official OTA is risk free.

It is not risky, firmware finder updates via OTA too. I always update using this. It is not like flashing custom ROM then just brick your device. It is safe

Yeah you're right, I already used it to update my P10 to B179 and it's working good so far. But will I be able to get OTA updates officially or I'll have to use Firmware Finder every time?

Did you try to check first if the firmware is approved or not? I often update my P10 with firmware finder. Plays Store show my phone is certified.

No root, locked bootloader. For some reason Huawei /Honor devices are very easy to brick. For now quite happy with Oreo and not under pressure about 9.0 as it's on the way

I downloaded this and tried to install it but it failed instantly on installing using the dload method. I usually flash with a fat32 sdcard but the firmware file is too large so i tried with exFat i'm not sure if this is the correct format?

I just purchased the honor play L29 and i'm stuck with 8.2.0.130 firmware. No emui 9 with beta test or just navigation gestures. Does any owner of the COR-L29 receive a new update ?

Just look for the newest version that incorporates your region (c636) in the filename. Ignore the newest 9.0.2 ones as no one can tell which is for which region. You'll probably find newest version is around 9.0.0.16 or 19 ish. And whe you use F you click check availability to check if it's available for your imei

Have you tried searching for updates in HiSuite for pc? Also,try using a different SIM card from a different provider for a day and search again for updates with the different SIM inside? Sometimes slow updates are related to the provider.

Hey...
I bought this phone in Singapore and use it in Japan.
I received the update regularly.
Now, I am on 9.0.0.234.
Try update from HiCare or HiSuite.

I have the same model (C636) unlocked/unbranded and I have not received EMUI 9 yet. Last security patch in October 2018. I'm using my P20 Pro in the US. What's going on?

Finally just bit the bullet, did a 15 day subscription to FH, waiting for my included free unlock code and I'm rebrsnding to C432 Europe. C782 and hauwei can kiss my cheeks

That's very strange, c636 is updated regularly and quite fast.
I have c636 with 9.0.0.234 march update through OTA. i bought the phone in Vietnam but I live in Italy

I have C636 and I have not received an update to pie either.

I have the same model (C636) unlocked/unbranded and I have not received EMUI 9 yet. Last security patch in October 2018. I'm using my P20 Pro in the US. What's going on?

Yeah same here. I haven't gotten an update yet and I am not bootloader unlocked. What should I do???

Follow instructions carefully, it should work. Got OTA to next version when it was available after that.
I would first try to find out what versions are normally delivered for your C636 OTA. Some say you should first update to 9.0, then to 9.1, so maybe try to update repeteadly to closer versions, not straight to last.
