Sorry for late
Here is a full guide - one or two easy steps ?-
After enabling developer options and USB debugging and download Nokia x2 tools - http://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-x2/general/tool-nokia-x2-tools-1-1-rus-en-rooting-t2846570 - here to know all these things
Just choose the number of root and hit enter, your phone will restart then open supersu - new app will be installed with root - message will ask you to update binary just choose normal
Then back to Nokia x2 tools and choose the number of install gapps and play store, hit enter and your phone will be restarted and play store will be shown in your apps
too many talk but every thing is easy and fast
Very important... FOR SAFETY, BEFORE DOING ANYTHING MAKE A BACKUP
thanks for the steps

do i need any software to do backup or from settings option i can do it
Hello. Couldn't find a post related to this. I'm not a lazy browser, been on XDA for many years through many phones. Just haven't had the need for a user account until now.
I see the 7.2.4.0.0 version is removed from MIUI websites and i can think of a few reasons already.
Does anyone else have this problem too? I have the 3GB version and normally start out with 1.7gb RAM after a boot. Gradually over the day (even after closing apps) it goes slowly down to 200mb and i have to do a reboot.
Or Does anyone have the 6.5.30 version and could tell if it uses up the RAM over time?
Sincerely
John

You have a fake rom. 7.2.4.0.0 is not an official MIUI rom and newer was. 7.2.4.0 is an official rom.
You should flash the official rom.

You are on an un-official modefied version.
The fake version is 7.2.4.0.0 <- your version.
The real official and supported by Xiaomi version is 7.2.4.0
Hi,
Hope I can get some help. I recently just picked up a unit and am on 7.2.4.0.0. Realised it was a fake rom but I seem to have trouble flashing the global rom or the china stable rom. Believe my bootloader is locked at this point and have applied through the unlock miui website but that will take at least 10 days or more to get the SMS.
Frustratingly, I have seen some solutions on the miui forum and there was one proposed solution, of which many were finding success, that includes booting to recovery mode and then hitting shift + [flash] when connected to the Chinese miPCsuite. My update only goes by to mid 50% levels and then its stuck on for several hours! Is this a USBC to USB port incompatibility issue (if it was it wouldn't have recognized the phone right?) or is my phone just beyond saving ? At this point, im not confident in using other solutions as they look highly technical and some have highlighted that their phone has bricked in doing so.
Appreciate any advice! thanks. PLEASE HELP!

if you already tried the simple steps as stated then there are no more simpl steps left.
Do an EDL flash and make sure you clear all, and be aware that most Mi flash stuff works best on Windows 64Bit.

What he said, download the latest, both files can be obtained HERE
-MiFlash tool - step 1
-official fastboot rom - step 2
install the MiFlash tool
extract the downloaded rom (tgz) then extract the output file (tar) > make sure you copy the path of the directory where you see all the files like flash_all flash_all_lock etc..
reboot your phone into fastboot mode (you can access this by turning off your phone, hold vol - and power)
make sure you have adb on your pc
type this: the first line is optional to see if the phone is recognized.
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot oem edl
edit: I should mention, do not panic, the screen of the device will turn black but will still remain on.
launch the MiFlash tool
Click on Refresh, you will see a device right now in the list called COM (some number) >>>> it will be ticked
Paste the copied directory path into the white... uhh search bar thingy . or just click Browse and select the appropriate path.
Click Flash
edit: once done, simply unplug your phone and restart it by pressing the power button.
That should be all

Thanks for the reply! Before proceeding, I actually received the SMS to unlock the bootloader but im still at work so I cant go back and attempt the unlock. So just trying to manage my expectations here.
Is it safe to assume that all I need to do now is log in to the unlock tool by miui and unlock? because im still on 7.2.4.0.0 (the unofficial discontinued rom) and I have no way of flashing it to any other roms. My last attempt last night was again, stuck at 52% after a nights worth of wait! TT

Thanks for the help. I will attempt this as a last resort. I just received the SMS to unlock my bootloader. Hopefully its as simple as logging in and unlocking so I can get rid of this pesky 7.2.4.0.0 supposed "Global" rom.
i have successfully flashed to global rom!!! but now i have no audio coming from the speakers!!!! is it just my luck!!!??? and after reflashing again.. its completely dead.. its goes into the sign in to miui welcome page and just goes insane.. like to the point where i cant even select options and and random menu sounds keep coming up.. cant even turn off i had to reboot to fastboot.. is a goner? sighs..
7.2.4.0.0 to Resurrection Remix (CM13)
- unlock bootloader
- flash TWRP with fastboot
- install Resurrection Remix
- install GApps
- reboot, now it's say Google play stopped.
- go back to TWRP
- wipe data
- reboot and everything is working
Hi everybody, I'm new on xda and I just received my P9, chinese version. Great phone by the firt impression, but after a some time spent configuring it I still have some "issues":
- I'm not able to download the googe dialer and contacts apps from the play store
- I only receive notifications from some apps (ie whatsapp and facebook) if they are opened in the multitasking (I know, there is already at least one thread on this topic but I didn't found any solution)
- I can't find a way to change the action associated to the long press of the home button and get rid of hi voice (I reallt want to try now on tap)
If anyone know how to individually solve these problems please tell me
Anyway, hoping to solve them and get rid of all the little residues of chinese language, I'm thinking of trying to install the international firmware: first of all, is it possible? From what I've read I must flash the oeminfo and the dload files, so I suppose that after unlocking the bootloader I have to install TWRP, do I also have to root the phone?
Last thing, how can I backup the current oeminfo and firmware in case anything goes wrong or I decide/need to revert the process?
Thanks for the attention and sorry for my english
Come on guys, can anyone help me?

I have the same problem! I would like to flash the international firmware but I can't find any tutorial. Someone can help us?

Desperate for some help.... Huawei P9 - AL00 Chinese phone
Hi guys,
BUMP this thread.
I too have a Huawei P9 - AL00 - EVA AL00C00B176 - EMUI 4.1 on android 6.0 | I would like to flash the phone with an L09 European firmware (standard). I've been reading through a lot of threads and here is what I've done so far:
used the DC unlocker to unlock my phone and get bootloader code - successful
used the SRKtool to try install TWRP (to get root). It says installed but I cannot boot to TWRP - just boots normally or boots into erecovery - have tried installing TWRP via three methods - fastboot, SRK, Paulobreun, "spanish one", etc. None have worked so far. Have tried switching phone off, on with volume up + power button. NOTHING.
SRK tool is excellent but haven't been able to get past root - ADB server WAITING FOR DEVICE. Fastboot mode is the only mode that seems to work - have once been able to get SRK tool to load correctly in Debug mode.
Have the phone in debugging mode and have tried using the *#*#2846579#*#* to set to manufacturing mode - waiting for device endures. ONLY DC Unlocker seems to connect properly once in manufacturing mode * note - I don't have OEM unlocker option in Debugger.
Please can someone assist guys like us to get these awesome phones working as needed
Many thanks,
The_JooP
It is Volume DOWN + power button. Not up.
And if you have SRK tool, there is a Utility menu where you can boot your phone in Recovery, Bootloader and eRecovery mode.
The AL00 actually has the latest and quickest updates. It just updated to B183 yesterday.
If you want the European version, I think you should re-brand your phone before you flash any European firmware.
There is a tutorial for re-branding:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/vdo-guide-how-to-debrand-huawei-phone-t3410045
Up this thred!
I'm in the same situation with AL-10 Chinese version.
Want to flash Europe/international version.
I downloaded SRK tool and saw there that oeminfo for EVA-L29 is not available.
After flash oeminfo/wipe I can flash the version by dload?

Accordingly to the TWRP installation guide, many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot, so After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo (Volume UP, no need power button in this case) and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install. (source: https://twrp.me/devices/huaweip9.html)
So, you shouldn't let your phone reboot "normally", but you must force it to reboot on TWRP from the beginning.

Volume DOWN is for fastboot, but for enter in recovery mode, Volume UP is correct.

I solved this issue with the right settings in the Permission manager: you have to launch the Permission manager, choosing the Facebook, Whatsapp,... or the application you need to get notifications and be sure that is selected the option "App auto-launch" (in this case if the app is not open in multitasking, it will be by herself).
You have also to be careful to the Phone Manager application (is not a Settings option, is just an application herself) because has the "Power usage firewall (power-intensive apps)" function that if is not well setup, it literally kills the application that are running on background. So in the case you need notifications, you need to allow functions like "System wakeup" and "Keep running after screen off". "Power-intensive prompt" is good to be disabled in the case of whatsapp-like applications.

I also tried everywhere and I didn't found anything. I will try to search if there is any system file that could be modified (of course, will be necessary to have rooted phone).
NOTE:
I have an EVA-AL00 (Chinese version) but I keeped the stock rom and most of the application (I just removed the 100%chinese-unusefullhere applications). I honestly didn't found any big issue that push me to change to an international rom, but if for any reason I will decide to install it, you will be the first to know.

The main point to me is about the integration of the softwares.
I basically use Google for everything. But when you have the Chinese ROM, Uber for example will launch Baidu maps instead of Google's. The MI Fit app, to use with Mi band will not be integrated with Google fit, but other chinesse app. It wouldn't be a problem if the app has English or PT-BR support, but most of the time they don't.

If the app is only in Chinese language or is only based with chinese services I really recommend to uninstall it (you can do the normal Uninstall procedure with most of Apps), apps that I uninstalled immediately are for example Videos (Huawei Videos), HiWallet, HiPay, Baidu, Vmall and few others that had chinese name.
I just tried to use Uber and it launches correctly Google Maps. Of course, I repeat, you have to uninstall Baidu.
If you use Google for everything, probably you are also using Chrome. In this case the stock (Chinese) browser cannot be uninstalled (because is a system app) but instead of "Uninstall" you can "Disable" it (same menu for uninstalling, just different text): after disabling it, Chrome (or any other browser) will became the default one.
Just double checked on my Huawei P9 EVA-AL00C00B183 (but I'm sure is the same with B176 also)
P.S.
I don't know MI Fit, but if we are speaking about the Xiaomi application, we are speaking about a completely different (and quite off topic) smartphone philosophy.

I found google dialer is very hard to install in non-Nexus devices and I suppose for the P9 will be the same. I didn't try 3rd parties dialers, yet, but I want to do as soon as possible. Anyway the stock dialer is working well, except for the "Yellow pages" junk, which has only the title translated and all the rest is Chinese only
Huawei P9 recovery is weird, hold power + vol up is Huawei's eRecovery, power + vol down is FASTBOOT, and power + vol up + vol down is TWRP, hope this helps anyone.
has anyone tried using the OTA links to force update to Nougat on the AL00?
I've been wanting to update my AL00, but the OTA links all seem to be for the international versions (L09/L19) so i just want to know if they'll work for an AL00..

I finally made it to flash TWRP with a flash tool I found via a doogee-blog, a official doogee Q&A site and a blog on doogeemobile.
Why do I have to verify so often?
EDIT: I had a look at my documents, got the flash tool from dogeemobile.com and the TWRP 3.0.2 from needrom. You have to pay attention that you use ROMs for the particular processor of the maxpro (MT6737 M). SU from here of course. :good:
HTH
Why do I have no verification to do any more??
still cant do it
messing around for a week and still no sucess.
flash tool says !sucessful! but i reboot and get stock recovery - not what i expect (twrp)...
also cpu-z says is mt6735- but if i try that one i get :
chip type not match
targetef use value 0xA4020000
but it works with mt6737 - it just dont reboot into that other loader....
any ideas
mlcrip co uk/DooGee/i1.jpg
also tried both x5pro and x5maxpro...
(TWRP-Doogee-X5-MAX-PRO.zip)
(TWRP_Recovery_X5_Pro.rar)
dev enabled, usb debugging, oem unlocking on,
also yes, i do imediately go for bootloader (volume up while turning on)- doesnt work no matter what.
UPDATE:
DooGee X5Max_Pro MT6737M (Android 6.0, 20161123, kernel 3.18.19+)
i sorted it. turns out i had to use x32TWRP (fund it here somewhere on this site)
MT6737M_Android_scatter.txt (plus image come with it)
SuperSU-v2.78-SR3-.zip
also i randomly went for adb commandline to 'unlock rom' not sure if it was necessary, but wont hurt.
so if any noob wanna easy way,
1. 'minimal adb and fast boot' to unlock rom (few cmd commands and you done)
2. start flash tool, set CORRECT scatter file (MT6xxx- if you set wrong model it will give you error popup)
3. set DOWNLOAD ONLY' on drop down box. press DOWNLOAD button.
4.REMOVE BATTERY off your phone. Plug usb cable. youll get 'sucess' pop up window. close the flash tools. disconnect phone but keep it OFF!
5.pop in the battery. press volume up+on button.
at this point you should get some proper user interface, not the black screen with some letters (stock bootloader) something went wrong.
what you should see imediately once you turn it on- just google TWRP images lol.
techbeasts.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/TWRP-Recovery.bmp
also all files needed (incl flash tool) i dropped here:
one by one (in case if someone needs scatter file or something)- or inside 'all' folder- all tools compressed into rar

Hi,
I passed the last 2 days reading and reading tutorials on internet and trying to find a way to install the TWRP so I can install a Custom ROM, and for what seems I need have the bootloader unlocked, which Im trying but the option dont appear under Dev options and it doesnt let me use the oldest firmware since the one installed is newer...
So Im trying to see if I get the flash tool for it, but I only find those scam websites where I need install or refill some form with my data.
Does anyone have the tools needed to flash it ? Thanks in advance
PS: I searched in the forum and the posts I found wasnt usefull to me, and everytime I try to flash the TWRP, it appears in my cmd windows: "writing recovery" but stay like this all time, after 1h I needed restart the phone
