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" :/

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.

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?

Romania, official not beta version.

received B360 today in germany
Just received B360 EMUI 5.0/ Android 7 update here in germany OTA (no branding).
Previous installed version was VIE-L09C432B181, no beta tester so this looks like the final version.
Also, there is a new feature that i haven't seen on regular P9 EMUI 5 update and even Mate 9 is missing this feature. We have a "dark mode" for our AMOLED display in battery settings (see screenshots).
Security patches are from january 2017.

first i tried the version from firmware finder (1.334GB OTA) but the installation failed, after reboot i looked into updater app and the update was there (2,39GB)

Nothing here in Sweden yet, I see the version in firmware finder but as it looks as only half the update judging from above there's no meaning trying it. Nice for you though, is it working good?

i have a mate 9 next to my p9 plus, the p9+ almost running at the same speed as the mate 9 after the update!
B360 runs incredibly smooth and fast, it's the same with fingerprint scanner, it's fast as the one in the mate 9.
As for the battery i can't say much because i have installed the update a hour ago and now it's charging.

No more update higher than EVA-L19C432B386?

Hello,
Huawei stop to build any new update for EVA-L19C432?
There is no more update from so long time, security patch of Android is so old from April 26 and also the Android version is so old (7.0).
This model has been drop and will not get anymore any update? They stop to update and prepare Oreo version for this model or was forget? Have someone some more information or some new firmware update unlisted on Firmware Finder?
Thanks

Count yourself fortunate, I cannot even get Nougat 7 on my EVA-L29C636. Seriously though, almost all flagship android devices will get, at most, 2 major updates. The P9 was shipped with M and most (not me) have N now. That will probably be the last.

You have Nougat for your version in Firmware Finder, have u tried upgrade manually?
U can also check in HiCare app if u have a update.

stuck on the same version, firmware finder does not show anything newer either.
Never buying this trash company again and already telling all my friends to do the same.

Was able to install EVA-L09C432B391 with FF DNS method on my dual sim EVA-L19C432B386.
However device shows still old build number, but security patch level is Sep. 2017 and moments is available in camera app

I have managed to update to C391 on L19 but it shows C386 as before. I believe there is another small pack we need to install to show the actual firmware.

388 available for L19, it's the same as 391(L09)

Would you like to elaborate?
Did you flash the oeminfo partition before? I've tried mostly what I've thought about, but can't flash B390 onto my P9 dual sim. Same fw. EVA-L19C432B386.
Thank you.

I was able to flash C391 on my L19 using firmware finder and proxy method. It did not work in my case using DNS method. I did not flash oem partition, just the full 2Gb OTA, straight up.

I get unauthorized every time.

I assume you are Romanian and you own a dual sim L19C432.

I now see that even L19C432B390 appeared few days ago in firmware finder, but nothing in regular hisuite/settings update - still on L19C432B386 officially

L19C432B388 is the last approved firmware.
B390 is not yet being approved to masses, only to test users.
Proof:

I am not getting even 388 though - through regular Huawei/settings update still nothing. Only see it in FF.

Nevertheless, you can update to later unapproved builds by HWOTA method

From my personal experience... You probably have re-branded EVA-L19C432. Original still receives an update, however, if you have re-branded (as mine.My original EVA-AL10) it all stoped at EVA-L19C432B386.
and even if you try to install higher update via SDCARD it will fail.
You can try to download partition table for EVA-L19 and flash it on you phone using dc-unlocker Phenix52 software, then fix your IMEI with HCU Clinet , then you will be able to flash updates manualy higher the 386 but it cause issues with calls and reception on your cell phone..

The problem is you cannot flash anything higher then EVA-L19C432B386 on re-branded phone.. Unless you have some magic or DC Phenix creators team creates full image from latest firmware...

Issue solved. I re brand to eva-l29c636 and all works as it should. All updates installed until aug 2018...

the one method works only once because after updating to the oreo it is not possible to do it again because the bootloader changes and the HWOTA method is not recognized anymore because TWRP does not install next time and therefore can not update more

Just picked my new Huawei mate 9. So far so good..
But i have an issue with updates. My version is MHA-L09C316B150. Im checking for updates but the update system says i have the latest version.. I checked on this thread that the oreo update is out. Will i be able to update my phone to the MHA-L09 version listed here?
Also can someone explain what the C316 is? I see there is C33, C632 etc

C33, C636 are different variants of the device. I rebranded my L29C185 (a Middle East international version) to the L29C636 (Asian international version).
L09 is the single sim version of mate 9 I believe, I don't know what region c316 is though. Maybe someone on here can tell you, or have a Google.
I use Firmware Finder from the play store to check updates. Might be worth looking on there.

Hi all, tried the hwota method and it gets stuck on "After device enter TWRP, connect to USB cable. Press ENTER key to continue...". My Mate is in TWRP, but it is not recognized as USB device in Windows 10. Cold that be the issue? How to fix it - I have installed adb-setup-1.4.3.

Manual update without root and unlocked bootloader

Hi guys,
because in United Kingdom there is a brand C782 and the updates are late (on my P20 I have security update from April) I was looking for manual method to update without root. Because there P20 forum is dead I'm writing here. P20Pro C782 also has a problems with fast updates
1. Unzip the firmware and copy the ‘dload’ folder to phone’s root of SD card (not in any folder).
2. Open dial pad and dial: *#*# 2846579#*# *
3. Select Software Upgrade > SD card Upgrade > confirm the installation.
4. The installation process will start automatically. After rebooting, enjoy EMUI 5.0 (Android 7.0). (Source – XDA)
will this method work with the files from Firmware Finder for Huawei? I see in the FF that there is OTA for my phone (c782 version). I don't know how it is possible that OTA on FF its available but my phone is not being updated because of UK carriers.

Worked on P9 not tried on p20 pro yet

Thank you for the commendation, but i dont see any emui lower than 8.1.0 available for P20 Pro...

Hi all on UK brand C782 with bootloader locked.
maybe we can update manualy with this tool? it's made to roll back but maybe if we have files from Firmware Finder we can update our phones and not wait for UK OTA?

edit:
this method will only work for those ones with unlocked bootloader

if anyone is able to use a SD-card in a pro, pls let me know how. .. to my knowledge the pro doesnt support SD card like the p20

I don't believe the Pro model has a slot for the sdcard.

Would it be possible with a USB stick to update the P20 Pro (Device: CLT-L09 (C432) - FW: 9.0.0.108-c432) to EMUI 9 ? I read that the bootloader are locked on the p20pro.. and my device is not rooted at all.

It should be possible only if FW is approved for your device

I just tried with usb c memory stick. Update failed. I think its because firmware is still not approved...

P20 pro don't have SD but you can use a USB 3.0 microsd adapter connected through usbc and there on the SD you need to put dload with the origin file UPDATE and the folders extracted from Update I sure you this method works 100% I did it to return from not released 9.0 update to 8.1 BTW you don't need to use a micro SD you can also use a external hdd but than you need to format it through you're android divice so I rather sd instead of copying all you're files you need to save from hdd​
