I recently discovered that the VOG-AL10 firmware version of Huawei P30 pro has some restricted features like not allowing Google Pay services. I've tried doing in app purchases in apps but they always fail no matter what.
I really don't know how to change the firmware to the international version and any help would be appreciated please.
That has to do with the version of the phone.The firmware it's the same but P30 pro l29 model has dual sim.

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.

Hi all...
I just got the p20 pro. While searching the forum I saw discussions on firmware upto 8.1.0.120 (germany)...
I saw no discussions regarding the firmware 8.1.0.131 which i got out of the box.
There's no thread for CLT-AL00 Model as well.
Please help me with a method to root this model. I'm from India
On FirmwareFinder, the last firmware version for the CLT-AL00 is 8.1.0.1.109 (05/16), so you're very lucky to have this one.
Where are you from ?
From India... Haven't Nobody else received 8.1.0.131? How do i root it?
It seems that the 131 firmware is an older version coz i cannot find the improvements that's present in 120... Any way to flash 120 in my clt-al00 model?

Can you please extract your firmware and submit it to the forum so that it can be added to the list of official firmware? I'd like to try flashing 135 firmware as I'm not interested in staying on 120 and root.
Was your original model CLT-AL00 and region C675?
No. CLT-L29 C636
From where did you buy it? India models have c675.

Existing version is : CLT-AL00 8.1.0.109(SPC200)

Hi all, FYI

I've also installed Google Play Store from an APK which works perfectly. I installed a keyboard normal which kicked out the chinese one. I've uninstalled any chinese apps.
The only (false) problem i have is that i don't know how or where to unlock the bootloader for rooting and kind.. I saw that it can be done with FunkyHuawei after paying 55$ i don't want to.
I really don't understand why to rebrand as google service and apps works perfectly
i just got my hands on p20 pro CLT AL00 but seems like there no way to change region to canada or US and no google play(service)
is there a firmware for Canadian user that i can download and flash to it ?
really need sone help here
Can someone explain to me where the different P20 Pro variants are from? I'm not talking about the L29, L09 and so on, but about c432, c652 etc. From what I've read one the forums so far, I reckon the L-29, c432 version which I have is the "best", however I haven't received the 131 update yet (I'm on 120) and that kind of worries me. One last question: my P20 Pro is brand new and after I inserted my SIM card I got an update (obviously from my carrier) named DT. GRC 8.1.0.4 (CT) (my current last installed update is CLT-L29 8.1.0.120 (C432)). The changelog is "-Optimized network interworking - essential and recommended apps" I don't really want to install it because it will apparently install bloatware from my carrier, but I'm confused about the higher version number (8.1.0.4 vs. 8.1.0.120). How come it is higher? And if I do install it will I continue to receive c432 updates as they are released or will I have to wait for my carrier to roll them out?
There is no best variant. The version are devided by World regions. The 432 is the European one. As for the update you got its from your network provider. I got it to too (DT. GRC 8.1.0.4 LT) but after I have received the. 128 version.

I don‘t think .131 is officially out yet. I have not seen an official changelog so far and most people that have it seen to have flashed it manually. so relax, it will come when it‘s ready.

So I have to install this update before I am able to install 1.28? I also thought about it before but I was hesitant to do it as the update from my carrier has (C150) at the end which probably means that after I install it my phone will change to C150 from C432 and I don't know the consequenses of that (my main fear is that then my carrier would have to approve updates before I receive them which would delay them even further). But if it is the only way I can be able to install 1.28 and any later update then I guess I'll do it.
P.S. I said C432 is the "best" because I see that anyone who wants to rebrand does so to the C432 variant so I reckon there are some advantages to it (like receiving updates quicker maybe?)
C432 it's the most common version around the globe. In order for an update to be compatible with your phone, should read c432. You can't install other than 432.

But I literally have it resumed right now because I accidentally began the download. I mean how would I even get it on my phone as an OTA if it wasn't compatible? My question is, after i install it will my firmware change from a free one to a branded one?
*EDIT*: I found the below really helpful article which I thankfully understood thanks to my knowledge of German. To sum it up, it basically says that it is natural for P20 Pro users to get an update from their carrier as soon as they insert a SIM card on their phone. It may appear to be a different firmware version (like in my case which was C150), however the update will only install a couple of apps from your carrier (which you are going to be able to uninstall anyway) and that it won't interfere neither with how quick and the way you receive updates nor your device's firmware variant. Here is the link to the article: https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/huawei-p20-pro.3297/faq-branding-beim-huawei-p20-pro.876843.html
I think it should be pinned somewhere as I believe it would help more people because I've seen plenty others wondering the same thing
Can confirm that right after I installed the carrier update, version 128 was made available to download and the phone remained as C432. Problem solved, thanks Android-Hilfe.
In my case I receive the 128 first and after that the provider update. Now I'm waiting for the 131 or 132 update that's being released for c432.

I did a thread on this...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/how-to/huawei-p20-pro-variants-t3797524
Ok I thought there were only 3 different Mate 10 pro models ie; L29, L09 and A09 but....
I came across this China version BLA-TL100 that actually has more USA supportive frequency bands then the L29 Version.
But... What about updates?? Is it better then the A09 version?
I also saw that the TL00 version can be flashed over to L29 version but not sure of the benefit of that but I'm assuming cause of the L29 being first to get the updates...
Am I assuming right that even though TL100 version is flashed to L29 that it will not effect the frequency bands at all correct? (Meaning the T100 having more bands to begin with that those bands won't change if flashed to L29....)
Here is the link:.
https://www.frequencycheck.com/comp...-edition-dual-sim-td-lte-bla-l29-huawei-blanc
Also can TL00 version get play store and VoLte? It supports all the T-mobile LTE bands except 71, which most phones don't anyways
