Hello
I was trying to change my huawei mate 8 to a c432 to get faster updates as mine is with a pretty old version.
I used SRK Tool to unlock the bootloader and root and then i choose to change the oeminfo and custombin to the one for c432. then i reboot,
But now my phone does not boot into android, its just stuck on twrp.
i havent flashed anything and i do have my backup of oeminfo and custombin.
Any way i can recover it to boot again into android?
Thanks
What was you original firmware?

thanks factory reset did the trick for me as well.
Now I will try to follow that video to see if i can succesfully change to c432.
Thanks a lot
hi i followed the tutorial and i changed the buildprop to NextL00C432B011 and did the dload update for L09.
i ended up with L29 under the update screen? My phone was originally an L09 (single sim).
Will i have any issues running L29?

I don't think so as long as all the networks are working fine.

Awesome, since i have full signal and wifi/3g is working fine i think im ok, cool.
One last thing i dload B180, the phone OTA to b192, I thought it wil be updated to b320 (emui 4.1) but it didnt.
do you guys think this b320 fw was pulled from huawei? the official dowload link for the file is not working from the FW thread here on xda.

Yes b320 never came to international version,and wasn't that good when I tried it.
Anyway nougat is coming soon with emui 5.
Oh i see, ok i will wait for the Ota of EMUI 5.0
thanks

Hi
I instaled the lastest firmware VNS-L31C432B161, but now need to revert back due to issues. Is this possible with the stock bootloader?
My Area code is now C900
thanks in advance
Download the rom you like and onstall it with the dload method
If you flash firmware VNS-L31C432B161 you can not return to any previous firmware that works ok...
You must have hope that Huawei launch another update that works ok again...

So it means once we flash B161 we can't downgrade (even with wipes ?) ?
Yes, it's corect. I realy want to hear from someone that can flash any firmware (less than B161)
after update to B161 (VNS-L21 or 31)...

That is not entirely true, you can install B160, which has the same problem ahah
But yeah, just hope for another firmware update from huawei..
Ok, starting from that 160 is less then 161, you have right...
But when i make update from B130 to B150 device updated ok, at version number is write right, B150 - this is ok.
But when i make update from B130 to B131 or from B150 to B151, version number is not changed at device properties...
Update procedure work ok, device restart, but version not changed...
I am curios in case of B160/B161 if firmware version is change...
What kind of bug do u have?

Hello!
First, let me tell you that you don't need to make X same threads or posts to get attention. One is enough. You just need to be patient.
You better wait for OTA.
The latest firmware is B350. I've used it on my CAN-L11 and I've found it better than B340, which was laggy a bit. The battery backup seems to be as EMUI 4.1, more or less (according to my usage).
The bug of Themes app can be fixed if you're rooted. Here's a guide about how to fix it.
In this post I've wrote the steps I've used to update to B350, through Firmware Finder. Just "click to show content". If you have locked bootloader, then skip the steps 3-->6.

It's said that firmwares from Firmware Finder are official ones, but I have no proof about that. I think B340 is a beta and prolly B350 too, not sure.
As I've said in my previous post, I've experienced some lags with B340 on my CAN-L11 and I can't recommend it. I didn't have any issues with B350 though.
There wasn't B350 neither when I've updated it. I installed B340 and then updated to B350 through Settings > System update.

As far as I know, you can't. You have to install C02 over C02 and C432 over C432. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Better let someone else handle the updating, seeing as you're don't like reading too much.

Dude use Firmware Finder app and dns/vpn method
to try to force the upgrade ( try to use B361 FULL OTA-MF PV first ).
If all will take right direction, then use same method to update to
B502 (dual sim) or B503 (single sim) FULL OTA-MF version.
See the attachtments and good luck.

Dear,
huawei never planned to forward oreo official upgrade to p9 lite ( 2016 aka venus model ) users,
so do not waste your time looking for this, it simply doesn't exists...
B502 ( dual sim ) / B503 ( single sim ) are latest Nougat firmware.
Cheers

Firmware Finder is down bro, definitively. You can try to upgrade using dload method. Download Service ROM for dual SIM
and flash it, instructions can be found in ReleaseDoc folder. This process will erase all your data (and lock the bootloader again) !
I hope you have Dual SIM variant. If not, let me know.

My phone had to be repaired last week, and the Huawei repair service changed everything in the phone except for the backplate.
However, I am now stuck with emui 4.1.2 in firmware VNS-L31 C432 B226, and i can't find a replacement firmware for the system.
The phone shows no update available in stock.
I have TWRP and magisk installed atm, just so i could try and get a different firmware with emui 5.1 or 5.0 at least, which I did to no avail.
Is there any way to find the correct firmware compatible with this phone?
Googling this firmware gives me no clues as to the correct path to updating this phone.
Should i use an adb/fastboot command prompt to update it, or use the dload method, or even the extract the SYSTEM.img from UPDATE.app method?
I just don't want to revert to an "earlier" version of the firmware with the dload method just to have my phone bricked.
These are the firmware i tried already:
[TO BE UPDATED]
TL/DR:
I have a Huawei P9 Lite repaired to a stock:
Firmware: VNS-L31 C432 B226
EMUI: 4.1.2
in Portugal.
I want to know a compatible firmware or series of firmware patches so i can get
Firmware: VNS-L31 C432 Bxxx
EMUI: 5.xx
Thank you for your time.
Hello,
it's strange that with an unbranded european firmware your phone didn't upgraded to android 7....
Anyhow i never done a forced upgrade but if i were you i wil try with HWOTA update, like explained in this thread.
So first make all your necessary backups, then unroot and finally follow the guide to upgrade.
P.S.: If your phone is dual sim try install B370, if single sim try with B371.
All the best

I tried a bunch of firmwares for emui 5.1 that didn't work, or which had NFC and bluetooth not working. I ended up downgrading to B160, and am now reupgrading to B370 after checking that both of the previously mentioned are working properly. I will update on this issue asap.
Also, it seems like the firmware I originally had was updated in march 2018, so it was really an updated official firmware with emui 4.1. What a weird setup. Could it be to make sure the NFC and bluetooth would be working? I just don't know...

I did it and it worked, however i flashed the recovery partition of version VNS-L31C432B380 with TWRP and now can't do a OTA update to B388.
Should I extract the recovery img from a b380 FULLOTA update and flash it to my recovery partition with fastboot?

Hey,
surely without stock recovery OTA updates won't work,
so yes try flash it with fastboot, then update to the latest/wanted firmware and finally unlock bootloader,
flash custom recovery and root (even if wanted).

Okay sounds cool I'll rebrand the question remained is what brand has the latest update?(Please provide a link to .zip update) and the last question is,if I rebrand before I install oreo what exactly happens I turn on my phone and it has a frimware from Africa but its brand is now China!Will that be able to turn on?Or I should use TWRP to install Chinese firmware from SD card.
Since I'm an android developer I need to have multiple os if possible.Has anyone tried this Or any better one?Can I use it in this case?

The links from hicloud says that the files have been deleted.
I don't have a reliable internet connection I rather download zip files then update because I don't want in the middle of the operation things go wrong that's why I didn't try HiSuite.Any live link would be appreciated.

I download B200 tried to install via dload failed said (incompatiblity with current version ) tried with twrp failed.And I wiped my OS and tried again and failed.And lost my OS.Sort of now it shows me android logo instead of huawie logo and it's stuck on the initial setup of nougat.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/guide-how-to-downgrade-mate-8-emui-5-to-t3515202
I found this and it says the nougat version must be b500 but mine was b560 and tried to install the rollback and it failed again.I don't know what to do?I need my phone.
Couldn't find any download link of b500 did you do that on your b500 or b560?
If b500 please give me a link of NXT-L29C185B500
Tried again and it didn't give me error this time the point is that it doesn't run on B500 it makes your device B500!
After installing marshmellow the bootloader is locked again!
