[Q] Flash EVA-L19 Full Stock Rom on EVA-DL00 possible?

Hi!
I would like to know about supported firmwares for the chinese dual sim 32 gb model. If cust will be configured to C432 using SRK Tool will it be possible to flash a full stock rom for the international dual sim 32 gb model (EVA-L19)?
The chinese and international models are not identical as i.e. the supported frequencies are different according to FrequencyCheck.com. In the country of use the missing frequencies of the EVA-DL00 are not used, so from this point of view it shouldn't be a limitation. Will there be problems flashing the L19 rom though or is it possible at all?
Thanks,
ag

I just debranded my phone from 64rom/4ram AL10 to L09C432. For now, I know that dual sim works and that my SIM card is detected and works. (Canadian SIM) The phone detects the good storage and ram capacity. It is most likely that it will support the frequencies of the DL00 that it had in your case with the ROM that you will flash because you're not changing the kernel. (BTW SRK Tool debrands to L09 by default, not that it matters... If you really want L19, You will have to manually find an L19 custom.bin and oeminfo)

In fact I had the L19 in mind as this is the most similar hardware to DL00 as international version. Mostly I was worried about the dual sim support, but as you say it works also debranding to L09 this shouldn't be a problem.
I'm confused by the choice of the rom though related to the roms from here. Thought the rom needs to be the one most similar to the hardware (for the china models: L29 rom for AL10 Dual SIM 4GB,64GB / L19 rom for DL00 Dual SIM 3GB,32GB / L09 rom for Al00 Single SIM 3GB,32GB+NFC - and whatever else for TL00 and CL00) and would also need to match the branded version. Is is not like this? Does only the branding need to fit the rom that can be flashed and the rest (specific functions) will be done by the kernel?

It doesn't need to match the original hardware. When you debrand, the new rom just has to match the debrand model id, everything else is done by the kernel.

Hi monoxian,
I use AL10, too. Now I'm going to debrand it for Europe Rom. Does it need to be rooted? I'm on Nougat, so is it possible to debrand?
Besides, does it have dual sim management in L09 ROM?
Thanks

I debranded mine to L09 with SRK ..

Huawei P9 - Installing EVA-L19 on an EVA-AL00

Hi everyone,
I have an P9 (EVA-AL00), the 3gb Dual-SIM chinese variant. I'm using it in Europe, and i would like to try (after a NANDROID Backup done) to flash the corresponding European Dual-SIM variant EVA-L19 firmware.
A few questions:
-Does anyone here had already flashed an European Firmware on a Chinese variant?
-Having it done (if possible), may the phone receive OTA updates, this time for EVA-L19?
Objective:
-Mainly, my objective here was to get a phone as if was and original European one, which i could create a Huawei ID account.
-As a bonus: Get working that search tool we got from long pressing "Home button" and the slide up, i guess its called HIVoice, in english or portuguese.
I basically would like to still have this amazing phone (and Android compilation btw) as stock as possible (Europe zone).
Many thanks in advance!
PS: I have some experience with flashing CFW, on some phones i previously had - Samsung Galaxy S and Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300), but none with Huawei phones

Huawei P9
Hi, did you find a solution for your Huawei P9? I have the same problem; Huawei p9 from China with EVA - AL00. Now i want to get rid of the chinese systemparts and flash an international rom.

VTR-L09 or VTR-L29 - newbie question

hello!
I hope its ok that I open a new thread.
I want to move from my Sony Xperia Z5 Compact to the Huawei P10. I found in german shops the VTR-L09 and L29. I don't know which one should I buy? I don't need a dual SIM phone. But which get faster FW updates or get faster custom roms?
I also want to root my phone, is there any difference between both phones?
And a stupid question, can I put a mirco SD in to the VTR-L29?
Thank you at all

The only difference is the unlocked dual sim feature.
For root there's no difference and the updates aren't connected to the phone version. How Huawei decides which phone will get an update seems to be magic.
You can also rebrand your phone from L09 to L29 and vice versa.
Get the phone which is cheaper, I think L09 in Germany.
I got an L09 from German provider 1&1 and rebranded to L29 for dual sim without any problems.

huawei p10 rebrand
Hello Janno,
Do you mean you could unlock dual sim fuctionality and use an l29 rom rebranding your phone?
Thnks!

I'm seriously thinking of getting the german version from saturn for 350e now....could you please send me/share a link with how to which from l09 to l29, to enjoy the dual sim feature.
And also, what's you personal view of the phone? Still happy? would you buy it again?
ps: did you follow this topic: link ?

Can I change firmware from Chininese to European

Hi There,
I bought Huawei P9 plus in china in Dec 16, model no: VIE-AL10. I continually update the Chinese firmware on it, when the phone requests a new one is available. However I get fed up that there are still some features I can't access as I don't understand chinese and also I don't have a chinese registered mobile no. to access some of the Huawei faciilities.
Can I change the firmware to a European version? and if so how do I go about this. I'm not very savvy when it comes to mobiles so a simple step by step process would be appreciated . What are the main differences between the two firmwares which you think I will benefit from?
thanks
andy

On XDA, 'support' for P9 Plus is much less than for P9 (there are procedures to debrand P9 and install EU cust c432, wherefrom you can install custom ROMs for P9, etc).
If you google for e.g. XDA VIE-AL10, you can find some threads about installing TWRP and rooting the Chinese P9 Plus, you may further ask there
TG, I have P9 EVA-L09 which is best 'supported' (with L19)

convert EVAtl 00 to EVAL09

Hi everyone,
I started a thread before [https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/european-rom-eva-tl00-t3605638] asking how to convert a chinese phone into european.
i couldn't get it working because i didn't have a boorloader code. now i do.
I'm reading on various threads, one thread says you can just flash a eva l09 onto the phone another says you have to change th oeminfo or it won't work.
i'm confused. what do i need to do to flash european frimware onto a chinese eva tl00 phone.
is there a step by step guide on how to do it?

You have to change oeminfo.
For rebranding (including oeminfo) use the tool HWOTA7 from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rebrand-update-tool-hwota7-p9-eva-t3820849
Look into the post #3 - skip the first part about unrooting and downgrading from Oreo (supposing you are not on Oreo).
Read also posts #1 and #2 in the same thread, they contain general usuful and detailed info about using HWOTA7 (although these two posts describe the opposite process, rebranding from EU to Chinese AL10)

thanks

Btw, per your other thread (two opened?!), you have dual SIM (is it?) EVA-TL00C01B377.
In that case you're still on Nougat - as needed for HWOTA7.
But then you can also use HWOTA7 to rebrand to EVA-AL10C00B399 (exactly as in the HWOTA7 thread), where from you upgrade to b528 Oreo.
As explained in the HWOTA7 thread, you can keep dual SIM functionality, you will have GApps (stock), debloated from Chinese apps, you can root it by Magisk and you can even flash treble OpenKirin AOSP ROMs (instead of stock).
It's all described in the HWOTA7 thread. Many of us have just rebranded from European Lx9c432 (Mediteranian and other custs) to Chinese AL10c00b528 because of otherwise we cannot and we would never have Oreo on P9.
So, it's strange that you go in the opposite direction.

lot of trouble

Of course, your phone, your choice.
I'm just saying that EMUI 8 (not 7) works great on that same P9, and fully in English, as on the screenshot

EVA-AL10C00B528 Oreo is this international firmware?
from what i gathered EVA L09, EVA L19 is especially for Europe?
