Did anyone try it?

this version has a cust folder (update.app - vendor, i think), but it has no word document to see which is the baseband version, to see if it is a difference from b852!
If anyone try it, please, share!!!
Thanks!!!

Last night, i couldn't sleep , so i did the update to B861.
I was on B852, European cust C432D001.
The B861 update came with 2 folders, 1 named Cust_0, and the 2nd dload.
In 1st there is Turkish vendor, a little 18k Apk. In 2nd, there are the main update, 1,12 G and one update.asc (I don't know what is this for.).
So, i did the local update, and the main update did well, it ends at 100% and restart normally. (Didn't erased data).
To mention is that the phone heat after the update, as it never did it before. After the main update everything was working, except the keyboard. AND, i DIDN't had the CUST number (but instead i had an android pay application).
SO, i put the little 18 b apk (the one in the Cust_o folder), and did again a local update. AT 48%, the update failed and the phone restarted itself and entered the factory data reset automatically.
At the end of data reset, the phone loosed the settings, AND THE CUST VERSION WAS CHANGED TO C121D001!!!
Now, the android pay application disappeared.
But, all the applicationds work, i hat keyboard, motions, i think it is everything.
In about phone settings, i sow the base band version was changed to 23.600.08.00.00, - 23.02.2016, and it appears one new information about Android Security Level - 01.02.2016.
THAT WAS ALL. can anyone tell me if it is bad that the update changed my cust number?

I updated last night. The phone works fine. All options work. Motion control... vs.
The battery fast drain. But it will be normal soon.

You must copy dload folder to internal memory and make a local update, after then empty dload folder and put the vendor file there and make local update again. But be careful vendor formats everything and in Turkey version after the vendor update there is no radio application installed

B861
For what Cust version is this? Mine is CustC02D001, is it ok to upgrade? Thanks all

I think your version is a branded Cust, possible Vodafone!

No. My phone is not vodafone or something. Just a regular phone. Can we change Cust ?

No, it has no double tap.
It works BUT YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR CUST (EUROPEAN).
I WAS ON THE SAME CUST, I DID THE UPDATE, THERE ARE NO CHANGES, IT WORKS THE SAME AS B852, AND YOU WILL LOOSE RADIO APPLICATION!

CUSTC432D001 is easy to install, if you use Huaweiextractor and change the cust files in the UPDATE.APP before updating.
No data lost and CWM-installed UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65.zip runs without problems.
Integrated-SIP-Phone is without audio like in all Huawei-Stock ROMs for P7.

i fixed my problem
if you miss any app after update you just have to find your cust version and install it
i was on b853 and my cust number was c433 and after i did this update i lost radio app and my cust number was changed
i downgrade to b158
then i download cust C433 copy to dload and update my phone with this file
and again i update to b853
now everything is fine like before
هرکی این مشکلو داره دانگرید کنه به 158 بعد کاست 433 آپدیت بزنه بعد به 853 کنه اوکی میشه
بیلد 853 واسه ایران اوکی هست

nop, only flash the one intended for ur model no
otherwise u may brick ur device:crying:

It does not work for the model NEM-AL10 3GB RAM, get a brick! AL10-2GB - lost SIM 100%
CHANGE OF THE LOCATION OF CN - EU
for the further ROM installation​
To UNBLOCK the LOADER! SURELY!
Using TWRP installed instead "eRecovery" (recovery2) !!!
BACKUP for TWRP is ALSO OBLIGATORY!
(surely drill the status of an unblocking of the loader)
1) We establish hw_EU.zip through TWRP (Using TWRP installed instead "eRecovery" (recovery2)), after installation click reload.
2) The device will not be able to load the system , reboot and launch itself stock recovery, will be reset to factory default settings , you press SHUTDOWN button.
3) Turn on phone. Long start and optimization. Tapping the build number in Settings -> About 7 times, then going back and selecting the option from the Development menu.
Enable "OEM unlock" in the Development menu. So we will have flashing opportunity phone through fastboot if we receive a brick!
4) We throw on the card dload folder with UPDATE.APP firmware file on the region -EU (NEM-L51C432Bxxx), insert the card into the phone turned off , click the three buttons , waiting for the start of the upgrade process and all !!!)))
:good::good:
PS: In my hw_EU.zip archive three files are used:
custom.bin - the file in which contains one record in which belonging to the region - Vendor Country Info is specified
oeminfo - the binary file, contains information on a phone model and on the version of a firmware
build.prop - the system file from a specific firmware
All these three files from the European firmware of NEM-L51
Don't use this archive for change of a location in other phone models of Honor!!!
This archive - it isn't simple to replace a method a location
This archive - preparation of phone for the subsequent updating by a firmware from the European NEM-L51 model

You need to debrand your phone.

2) We return stock recovery, we do reboot, the device won't be able to load system, itself to reboot and will start stock recovery, there will be a dumping to factory, press the SHUTDOWN button
3) We turn on the device as usual, minutes 2-3 can hang on HONOR'S prompt, control of system and start of the device will go!
4) In the engineering menu we check vendor, in information about phone model and number of assembly
5) We throw in the dload folder, on a SD card, the firmware file from the region-EU, we insert the card into the switched-off phone, we press three buttons and wait for the update process!!!

Restored Stock Rom through TWRP not booting

REALLY IN NEED FOR HELP:crying:
Followed this guide youtube.com/watch?v=2tAeNZdTyeY to install Resurrection Remix on my P9 EVA-L19. After booting the phone, it is just stuck on the boot animation. I panicked and restored to the stock rom. After booting the device, it gets stuck at the "unlocked bootloader" screen.
So I tried to restore the rom through the eRecovery process but gave me an error.
So then I tried the dload process where I copy the UPDATE.APP to my SD card(FAT32) and failed. it stopped at 5% and said "Software install failed!"
I really don't know what to do next.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

There is a RR thread for P9, I'd suggesr to ask there about the RR installation and issues (these topics opened under Q&A practically nobody reads, specially not those few who know more about RR)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rom-t3767344
For safe reverting back to stock you should have used HWOTA method (maybe it will still work if your Bootloader is unlocked and/or you have TWRP for EMUI 5.x)

I don't know if that is possible, I know it's too late now but whenever I'm going to play with ROMs or so, I save screenshots of my Settings/About and all things like that (IMEI, etc), just in case (like this case).
Maybe you can figure out by:
- was it International cust c432, Mideast c185, or provided by some operator, see
https://www.huaweiblog.de/firmware-update-was-bedeutet-cust-emui-und-co/
- have you debranded the phone
- btw, before installing RR did you check if RR is compatible to install over your (at that time) stock ROM
- Have you installed a firmware from FirmwareFinder, by DLOAD, HWOTA or other methods
Eg, if it was c432 and if you did not manually update, it was likely b393 as the last approved build for L19

I fixed the phone! I used the link u shared about the HWOTA and followed the steps. I did a lot of research about the model number and the cust and found out on the Huawei site that my phone is the EVA-19C185. So I installed the update and it worked! Thank you so much for your help. Really appreciate it.

Downgrade From 9.0.0.286

I managed to downgrade from 9.1.0.311 to 9.0.0.286 through HiSuite, but I want to downgrade even further, to EMUI 8.1(preferably 8.1.0.152?) as both EMUI 9 and 9.1 have very poor battery life on performance on my phone. I have the bootloader locked and my model is CLT-L09 C432. Before I updated to EMUI 9.1, I was on 9.0.0.270 and the option "Switch to other version" (EMUI 8.1) was available on HiSuite. Now it isn't on 286.
So, is there any way to downgrade?
Regards,

I'm just in the process of doing the same.
Use DLOAD method to get back to 9.0.0.195, then hisuite will give you the option to roll back to 8. (You'll need a usb-c otg cable) - This wipes the phone, be warned.
Download 9.0.0.195 here:
https://androidhost.ru/T8h
Basic Instructions:
Unzip the package. delete the CLT-LXX that you don't need. (so remove CLT-29 in your case)
copy the files to the SD card. Place the inside a folder called dload. (so you'll have "update_sd.zip" in the dload folder, another folder under dload called "CLT-L09_hw_eu" in which you'll have another zip called "update_sd_CLT-L09_hw_eu.zip"
open phone dialer and dial *#*#2846579#*#* go to Software Update and then select memory card upgrade. (alternatively with the device off press vol UP + DOWN + POWER and hold)
cross fingers and wait while is does it's thing.
Phone should now boot on 9.0.0.195, and hisuite /should/ give you the option to go back to 8.xx.
...You may be able to go back to 8 directly through dload method, but I've done it in two steps to be safe.
Someone else shared these images to help explain better. (Sorry whoever you are, I don't recall where I got this link from!)

Thanks, but do you have that 9.0.0.195 locally by mistake? It seems that on my computer it downloads with 256k/s and it would take 8 hours to download completely.

That's androidhost.ru I'm afraid - it's painfully slow at the best of times Took me about 2 hours to download it from there earlier.

And it did finnaly work, fortunately. Now I am on good old EMUI 8.1 . Now I still have a question, would it be able to disable the system updates app? As there's always the red dot on the settings icon because it keeps telling me I have a EMUI 9.0.0.163 update. And I don't want to update. I turned off auto wifi updates download but I'm afraid to not force update it after some time.

Huawei P40 Pro Plus ROM files

So I got a Huawei P40 Pro Plus and I used by mistake my software files for P40 Pro. The Pro+ is now stuck and restarts every 2~3 minutes so I don't have enough time to download another version and repair it. I tried with system recovery on HiSuite as suggested in another thread but to no success. I wanted to ask if anyone knows where I can get the Huawei P40 Pro Plus stock firmware (ROM) so that I can flash it. All the ones I find don't have a dload file directory and are missing the SYSTEM.img file (instead there is this weird SUPER.img file).
Thank you in advance

I have the same problem, only on the contrary, I installed firmware from P40 Pro + on my P40 Pro. I am also looking for a solution to the problem, but unsuccessfully so far.

Try to restore via FASTBOOT according to this instruction: https://github.com/ProfessorJTJ/HISuite-Proxy/wiki/System-Recovery-Rom-Instruction-(-Soft-Bricked-)
only you need the correct cust and preload files for your region.

Would be interesting to know what exactly was done - I am struggling to get the firmware files placed on the right directory for Hisuite to detect and repair the phone . It keeps indicating firmware package files are missing .The background is I went from 1.56 to 1.31 and it has been a constant boot loop since then . Very expensive paperweight at the moment ,

You may be substituting invalid links in hisuite.proxy

You might be right . This is what I followed >
1. Prerequisites- OK
2.Full OTA -Installation Instructions :
You need to find the matching firmwares and link to them in the application.
The above is where I am stuck - how to link and what does ut even mean . I have got the firmware files downloaded , seems like the locked bootloader does not allow to go forward .
Any ideas ?

Could you advise what was done ?

Latest update - upgraded to 1.57 by Hisuite Recovery. However the bootloop issue is still not fixed. IMEI is unknown and Camera has become upside down. I have very little chance to get support in my country from the service center where they refuse to support imported models and no option to send to UAE from where the model is from . Any tips will be highly appreciated.

You will need to find out using fastboot which version is current on your device, and then use the dload firmware for your region.
To find out how to get the latest firmware information, check Fastboot for the OEM information. PLEASE see post #253 for instructions if needed. Then follow the instructions for recovery via fastboot.

ELS-N39-PRELOADC185R41B1 (10.1.0.1)
Tried with C185 firmware - recovery fails at 89%. Then the same bootloop continues with the above version ( moved up from the problematic 1.31. Now trying with 1.62 which is an approved firmware .Fingers crossed.

yes, only if you have p40 pro +, you need a firmware database for p40 +. in my opinion for p40 + this is ELS-LGRP6-OVS
and I can't tell you exactly which PRELOAD file is right for you as there are four of them.
if you just have p40 pro, then cust & preload look for ELS-N29 and firmware ELS-LGRP4-OVS base.

Remember-I am in a bootloop, cannot use hisuite proxy. I have actually downgraded using Hisuite Proxy so that works just fine .
Did you have any luck with the MRTKey >?

So far I have tried the MRT Key but it gives me failure when trying to establish a USB connection while the phone is in Fastboot mode. I am trying to find how to fix it right now and I hope it will work. I have tried Hisuite proxy before with versions 156, 144 and 132 but nothing worked for me so I will keep trying with fastbooting and the Key. Sadly I cannot say if it will be successful and if you should buy it for yourself. I found a tutorial on YouTube how to use it but that failure mentioned earlier is in the way and the recovery never gets past 5%.

Well I was trying with LGRP4- all this while , which might have been the problem . Thanks for the great hint . Let me give LGRP6 a shot now .

Bummer - Recovery failed at 5%, no change in status unfortunately . While the preload and the cust zips seem to have the region specific C185 tags , there seems to be no way to identify the main file belonging to the same region for making sure all 3 files are correct. Any ideas here ?

Hi there,
Got your PM & read this thread to get more info about your problem.
You would need to use dload firmware for C185. Using other methods like HiSuite Proxy or HiSuite recovery won't help you at this point. Even eRecovery will get you ''Getting package info failled''!

@Ashacreed, it seems that you got yourself a hardbricked device, because you've flashed a firmware from a diferent phone model, so in your case a new motherboard is required...

Dear SilviuO,
Thanks for getting back .
Nothing for C185 listed on easy-firmware , okay to flash with something else ? To be honest I made the most progress with Hisuite proxy method but unable to complete fully beyond 89% and the phone keeps in the bootloop every 1min 15 secs. Camera has become upside down and IMEI has become unknown .
I seem to have little hope .
Thoughts ?

You could try flashing other firmware (ex. for C605 or C432) using this method from my thread. You also need to rename those 2 zips (update_sd_cust&update_sd_preload) to match C185 dload firmware folder names . Be advised that this would be the first time someone tries the method explained on a P40 Pro / P40 Pro+ unit!

Guess that you will have to wait for a proper C185 dload firmware with a higher build number than the one you're currently on and try flashing again.

Version has upgraded to 1.62 but the issues are not resolved - because the flashing never completed fully looks like . The factor of the main file being not indicated as the main location based file marked for C185 region . I have got cust and preloaded files which C185 version , which seems to be not good enough . Interestingly wipe cache partition and factory reset do not seem to have any impact whatsoever on error , which I find strange based on my Android experience.
