With the arrival of Harmony and new EMUI pro mate 9 updates, we are still able to rebrand to C00 china to receive Harmony or will all C432 C636 … …will receive Harmony?
I didn't find how to rebrand since we no longer have the Ffinder site to download the ROMs and make
Dead XDA mate9
thinking about rebranding as well to install Harnony OS. Read on another thread that needs to install several files, but the links are no longer valid. It would be good to have fresh valid links.

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)

I recently bought a Huawei P8 Lite 2017, but this device is in firmware demo, retail demo, I tried to flash a complete firmware but it was not correct for this model and now I was stuck on the bootloader, I'm looking for a complete firmware for this model without results and I remain without a mobile phone, could someone please help me? below I leave all the details of the device ...
Device : Huawei P8 Lite 2017
Model No : PRA-LX1
Android OS : 7.0 Nougat
EMUI Version : 5.0
Firmware : B120
Build Number : PRA-LX1C652B120 (Europe, no brand)
Region : Europe (no Brand) C652 Demo Firmware
Firmware Finder For Huawei recognized it but couldn't find a complete Firmware or anything else.
I'm still trying to get my PRA-LX1C652B100 working without retail demo, firmware demo.

Hi man, 2 months I patched the demo firmware version of these huawei, but these have the B120 firmware I do not know if it works in your B100, if you want to try I send you a perfect guide to make your huawei complete, it's a bit complicated but I think you can succeed, add me on Facebook: "Evolazio DePianetis - Fourth Evolved Humans System" direct FB Link: http://bit.ly/2EwZvty and I'll explain everything you need to do. PS: I already have all the files ready for the patch to get you downloaded, the only problem is that if it does not work on your B100, it stays stuck on the BootLoader, until I can not find a working solution for your firmware (for this reason I have not released any guide around the web and because I do not know how many huawei P8 Lite 2017 demo firmware versions there are around the planet).
I had a similar problem,.the fix for me was to debrand my phone and change it from pra-al00 to pra-lx1, now it works fully. You can find a lot of posts about this in this thread.

Are not branded are only demo firmware and are already PRA-LX1, what you say you can not do, you need a patched firmware that I have already done for these B120.
So, is there any fix for this yet?
Has anyone had any success rebranding the US version? Over at FH they said the only ones they've seen try have resulted in a hard brick. I'd like to update to C636 for more recent/frequent software updates...
Thanks!
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.

You have to write here the all firmware (Cxxx).
I have also same problem.
Hello,
Need your help to solve OTA update.
I bought my P40 pro in Sep'2020 and installed Google in October '2020 with YouTube vedio by Redskull of Mr. Alex.
For your information that my P40 is running excellent, all banking, wallets, food ordering apps including all google apps running smoothly.
The only issue I have is that not received OTA till date after I installed GMS. My phone is on EMUI 10 and build number is 10.1.0.131 (C636E8R6P1). Is it that I have done some error on installing the GMS that restricted to get OTA update?
If possible please help me on this issue so that I can get EMUI 11 and other security updates.
Appreciate your help in this regards.
Thanks in advance.

If you want my advice: stay on that firmware version. Google and Huawei do a lot of work to block every possibility to install and run Google apps. On the last firmware they make a lot of sh..s. I stay on 10.1.0.121. (C432)

I also think you said the right thing. Since all is working fine woth GMS installed better stay as it is till Huawei has its own operating system plus Apps galary similar to the Google play store.
Thanks mate.
