Which firmware?

Just got a P8 Lite delivered from Carphone Warehouse UK. Its an unbranded unlocked model.
It states model number - ALE-L21 and the build number is - ALE-L21C432B133
I assume its an older version but there is no OTA available for it. Not sure if this is the dual sim EU version or not. Which version should I use to update? Any reason why no OTA or is it because its on an older version and it's missed it?
Thanks in advance.

ALE-L21C432B133 It's Europe single sim, latest update is B171 or B183.
Use anything you want to update, just follow the correct procedure (on XDA u can find it all)

Thanks I will have a search around.

Don't see why the latest is not available via OTA though? Even with HiSuite it says latest is installed (B133)

ALE L2TURC02B140 TR/ vodafone ?
What do I need to install software ALE-L21 TURC02B140? What do I need to install software

You need the branded one from vosdafone to update, or follow a guide to debrand then use the one you like.

Unable to update VNS-L31C636B361 to VNS-L31C636B385

First, sorry about my poor english.
I use Firmware Finder to update my P9 Lite VNS-L31 to Android 7 Nougat. All good. Now the same software ask me to update from VNS-L31C636B361 (my current version) to VNS-L31C636B385, but after download files and try to install, an error appear: Authentication failed of installation package.
Please help me to understand why, and how to update my phone to VNS-L31C636B385.
Thanks.

I don't recommend you update your device using this app. I updated my device using this app once but the update was unofficial and messed up my phone, and I had to downgrade it back to Marshmallow. I don't recommend it to anyone who wants to update his phone. Just be patient and wait for the Huawei to release the original OTA update.

I don't receive any update via OTA because i buy this phone on a site. It was new, but is was buy probable of Sri Lanka or China. This is the reason to use Firmware Finder, and update from MM to N works good. My question is: what is the final version of EMUI and Android for my P9 Lite?
Thanks.

To check that you have to email Huawei. I can't know because I don't have the proper requirements as Huawei has.

I found a tutorial here in xda. I can't remember it. Just search in xda "How to downgrade from Nougat to Marshmallow" without quotes.

Can someone share a download link of firmware VNS-L31C636B506?
Thanks

Emui 9.1 root?

Hello boys and girls,
I was wondering if someone already has a method to root a VKY-L09 (P10 Plus) emui 9.1.
Regards

Root is cancer

I need a way to root the device too.
The model is VKY-L09 and I have updated to Android 9, EMUI 9.1.0, Build 9.1.0.252(C02E8R1P9).
Thanks a lot for any help.

Hi,
Was your device bootloader unlocked with TWRP before your updated the device to Android 9?
As you are aware the bootloader unlock is now not available from Huawei in order to root the device.
Number of sites promise to root the device and most if not all are fraud.

Bootloader unlocked. Got TWRP on it, but i cant install android 9.1 manually, don't find any working scripts like for example this one:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/guide-manual-updgrade-to-update-oreo-t3758286
wich I used to update manually and to 9.0. But nothing to 9.1 yet. Also can't find any roots for 9.1 :/

Correct me if I am wrong.
Is your device bootloader unlocked, TWRP and rooted on Android Build 9.0 (Pie).
At this moment I suggest you remain on Build 9.0.x.x and not bother updating to Build 9.1.x.x.
Unless you have some urgent need to update to Build 9.1. ?
And if you update to Build 9.1 - in any event wait for months as custon developers have given up on Huawei devices due to their inability to unlock the Bootloader.

I have not the BL unlocked. Can I go back with downgrade and unlock it?
Let me know. Thank you.
