Hey,
Whenever I try to connect my Tab to Kies via wifi it connects all the way threw on my tab, but on Kies it sais that there is not Sim card inserted.
I have the WiFi version so of course there is no way to even insert a Sim card so that's out of the question.
What can I do to fix this? I have already reinstalled it but to no avail.
Regards,
Danny
Please, does anybody know a fix for this?
Purchased a SINGLE SIM P8 Lite from Carphone Warehouse (SIM FREE/UNCLOCKED/UNBRANDED). It has “ALE-L21C432B183” firmware and I have unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone now.
Unfortunately, there is an issue with this phone - battery discharging\draining despite disabling most of the apps and hardly been used…. This not normal at all. I am going to upgrade to Marshmallow to see if it helps, in fact, ideally start with a fresh firmware.
I would appreciate if someone can give me a link to an official Marshmallow Firmware that is compatible with SINGLE SIM UK phone (I am not interested in dual sim). Also, confirm whether I can upgrade from “ALE-L21C432B183” or do I need to do anything else.
Also, would be good if someone can provide a link to the original SINGLE SIM UK firmware, “ALE-L21C432B183” or something else.
Many Thanks
You have the same version as me. The phone is actually dual sim. You can either have one sim and an SD card inside the same slot, or lose the SD card for another sim instead.
I have been struggling for weeks now trying to get Marshmallow installed on the B183 with no luck at all. I hope you have better luck than me. If you get the update working, please reply back in here so I can copy how you did it
braders1986, I will try dual SIM later as now the battery drain is annoying me. lol
Installed ALE-L21C432B551 from http://m.huawei.com/itmobile/consumer/support/downloads/index.htm (just search for P8 lite, it says its for Single SIM) and gonno check if it improves battery performance at all. Unlocked it as well (although seems to be different method, messed up 2/3 times but reinstalled it). I used the force method to install.
Checked this morning on firmware Finder, it marks the 130 update for my C636 as approved for installation. Tried the DNS and VPN solutions of firmware Finder but didn't work. (I know FF doesn't work anymore for 8.1)
Is there any way to get the OTA faster? For example, in oneplus phones, we use VPN to Canada or Germany and Ota will arrive.
Try using program for a pc or Mac and see if updates comes up there instead
edit
Sometimes changing sim card trigger the ota even if it's a dead sim card from other region.
Hello everyone !
I had a battery drain issue so I wanted to try and change the software before resorting to a battery change, but now my phone is stuck at L09 C900B300 build and it used to be factory L09C432B504. I tried downloading the full package for 501 but the phone does not want to install it as it was "invalid".
Any ideas how I can force the b501 update on the phone ? It's hard to use ADB since the USB-C port on the phone is very worn out and it only maintains data-transfer in a certain position, if it gets shifted even a little bit it breaks the connection.
Thanks in advance !

You did a rollback and you cannot instal Nougat directly back
You must install c432b182 Marshmallow and then let it update by OTAs (with SIM card) to b50x
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73131443&postcount=321
Steps 4-9 apply to you (since you are already on c900b300)

Don't know what does it mean to you that you changed the software
If you rebranded from c432 to another cust, then you must also rebrand back to c432 by flashing its OEMINFO:

NOTE: Just saw you previously asked questions about P9 Lite
Pls be aware, this is Huawei P9 subforum, not for P9 Lite (different hardware, different firmwares)
The answer above with links/guides applies to P9, not to P9 Lite
If your question was for P9 Lite, please better search and ask on XDA P9 Lite subforum
Hey !
Thanks for your reply.
I have tried to follow the steps but I need to have the bootloader unlocked and it is discontinued by huawei, and in order to get the code from DC unlocker I need to invest a certain amount of money (id rather hand the phone over to a professional service and pay them and know that I have a fixed phone).
The other issue of the phone is that I cannot open the manufacturer mode on the phone using *#*#2846579#*#* since it does nothing, and I cannot use the calculator since this software does not have a calculator, it doesn't even have a camera app....
So I have contacted huawei support in hopes of getting the bootloader code but I do not hope for too much at this point. What are my other options at this point of handling this on my own ?
Looking forward to your response !

AFAIK, 'certain amount of money' for Bootloader code from DC Unlocker is only 4 Euros
If you search on XDA (various phones, just about Bootloader unlocking) you may find more online services (several months ago I've seen in some post), but they were more expensive
IMO, you don't need unlocked Bootloader if you are just following the first link, for dload-ing c432b182 without flashing oeminfo....
Update:
Okay the b182 package does not require unlocked bootloader which is great, it took the update and started going up all the way to b395 but it stopped there, no further OTA updates... It is okay to use at this point but I'm still curious to know if there is a way to get to it to update to the b50x version. I did try to use the small update for the b501 but the phone declined it.
Still thank you very much for guiding me through this ! This is a huge weight off my shoulders !

In Firmware Finder they have a new method based on eRecovery and changing the DNS server on your local WLAN AP
b50x must be showing as Approved to you for that method
It does not require Bootloader unlocked but no guarantee it would work (I tried with P9 rebranded to AL10 Oreo, managed to change DNS server address, eRecovery connected to but failed to update firmware that way)
There HWOTA method (in few variants) to install FullOTA-MF from Firmware Finder, but unlocked Bootloader is required
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75787156&postcount=3
Btw, if you ever unlocked Bootloader on that phone, just use the same code again (one must save always save the code for future needs)
As of recently there are some Huawei service firmware installations available, that also install by dload (not needed to have Bootloader unlocked)

When you download, you will need to unzip
Find Docs and Software subfolders (you may need to untar and unzip Software subfolder again)
In Docs folder there must be Huawei official guide how to install, check if it describes dload method (and what must be un-archived and copied to SD card dload folder from the Software subfloder)
I didn't use it for L09c432 but I successfully unbricked a P9 rebranded to AL10c00 (back to AL10c00 firmware) by such a package, really easy by dload, just by following their HowTo doc from the Docs subfolder
Hi everyone.
I just bought my Mi A2 globla version a month ago. After turn on the device, an update to android 9 was requested. I carried on with the update, but right after the update, I insterted my second sim card in the slot 2 and the phone not recognize. I tried also to put this second card in slot 1 and works fine, showing that problem is not the sim card.
Does someone knows a way to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
