How to update the Huawei Mate 9 Pro (Lon-l29c)'s firmware? - Huawei Mate 9 Pro Questions & Answers

Is there anyone out there that knows how to update the Mate 9 Pro (Lon-l29c)? The firmware finder app seems suspiciously unable to supply an "authenticated" update package, & paying funky Huawei every time I need to update is a bit to much for me. I have the files for the update, I just have no idea how to go about making the phone use it even recognize the files. Are there any methods available other than the two I mentioned?

And you dont have to pay evertime you update it , if you pay 30$ you get 5 points which will allow you to update your phone 5 times

Not to be rude, but I posted to find another method other than funky Huawei. Even with the fact that it's just $30 for 5 updates is way more than I would ever spend for something I've done for free. I plan to have this phone for years, and I'm pretty sure there'll be more than just 5 updates in a year (there's been 3 in the 2 months I've owned the device already).

Do you need to do any extra steps on the Mate 9 Pro? Is not having an external sd card in our phones a problem?
Currently considering rebranding to C636, since that versions seems to get updates fastest.

Google Assistant
Hello,
I have a chinese LON-AL00, could anyone with an international version tell me if they got Google Assistant working?
I still stuck with Huawei's assistant HiVoice which greatly sucks :crying:, and i would like to know if changing firmware would actually get me the Google Assistant.
Thank you

Mine just showed up as authenticated today... After many days/weeks of authentication fails... Just takes time for Huawei to enable it for your device.
I'm on LON-L29C636B182 now.

I don't need an OTG cable or anything. Just download the files and put them into the correct folder. Launch the program, and then follow the instructions? No need to change any settings.
I think the instructions in the thread are a bit confusing..

Did you use FF ?
Did you use the OTA-MF or the FullOTA-MF?
Last time I tried for my C636 (B182) I wasn't authorised!

You just have to keep trying.. my authorised only happened yesterday .. just takes time... I use the smaller one to test authorisation saves downloading 2gb every day... then when it finally got accepted i cancelled and went with the full ota and installed that...

Tried again. I just kept getting that incremental stuff where it keeps wanting to download another patch.
So. I cleared the folder specified in FF, rebooted the phone and then it kept saying the connection was unstable.
So, I uninstalled FF Proxy and then reset the connection. File downloaded. Phone rebooted and said it couldn't verify the file and now.....
"Your device has failed verification" on boot up. It will work if I press the power button, but something is clearly wrong. It suggests I use 'ERecover' which states it will download the most recent build over Wifi.
Balls. Will give it a try - but I fear I've bricked the bloody thing!

Ah. Thanks for that. That's how you get around that problem!
Onto the new problem - "Your device has failed verification." Huawei's own solution failed. I presume it only works in Asia or China. It appears to want you to use 'ERecover' and wifi*not fully booted phone) to download a system image. Doesn't work. (Funky Huawei use this method, but they change your DNS so presumably ERecover points at their servers for a fee.)
Apparently factory reset doesn't work either and I didn't wanna start from scratch again.
I Googled about and this does seem a relatively common issue and someone else got the issue on a Huawei Mate 9 (not pro) doing the same thing. The OTA updates can cause this, he flashed an older firmware. I tried to flash the older firmwares, two of which got 'not authenticated' messages. So, going for broke, I had a go at installing the newest B182 firmware FULL again through FF. By some miracle - it worked and fixed the "Your device has failed verification." issue as well!!
Phew. So managed to get B182 on L29C636. :victory:
Only weird thing I got was Google Drive didn't want to work post installation(kept saying no network connection) - so I deleted all data from Google Play and this started working again.
Now that I know the critical point in using FF - "Download latest full package" as stated above. This shouldn't be such a ballache.
Can anyone confirm the benefit of converting the C636(Asian) to the European version- C432?

Error message Honor 7 Premium Marshmallow Update

Update 07.may:
I performed the update from the Honor Homepage using the Update -App.
Update started normally but then there was an error at approximately 65% progress. Update stopped and I only could perform a Reboot.
Marshmallow booted and seems to run more or less okay, but how can I be sure everything needed has been updated??
Maybe Marshmallow Software is ok, but Hardware Update files did not install or something like that.
Anyone else with this issue?
I have found a video containing the Problem at approximately minute 4:04 you can see the Problem/ error message

it should be the same as for Honor 7 PLK-L01 so you can update with local update from ext. sd.

Okay Thanks for your support! And there is really no Problem using "non-premium" Firmware with the Premium Version? Did anyone try that successfully?
Sent from my PLK-L01 using XDA Free mobile app
as i know, the only difference between the two phones is the 16->32MB storage capacity. (and the quick power recharger of curse!) but feel free to ask somebody else if you didn't believe it!

Ok, i just wanna make Shure not to break my Brand new phone when using the non-premium Firmware... I think you can understand that.
I have read about battery issues with the b330 Marshmallow Update. Any gerneral concerns or is this only a minor issue with some very rare device constellations?
Is it safe to use these update files from the honor Homepage with the Update-app or do i have to use the keycode *#-something Variant or the 3 button service menu during startup/boot process?

You should redo the update process again! The shown error seems to be normal at the first time of upgrading.
Put the update.app into folder "dload" at your external sd card and enter the update code *#*#2846579#*#* to start the update process! Otherwise you can press volume up & down & power button for more than 5 sec. to start the process! This time, it should finish the update process with 100%. Good luck!
Edit: have forgotten some star! it's completed now!`

Sorry for that! This was a result of copy and paste! But you was clever enough to find this mistake
BTW: I have changed between B330 and B180 or B180 up to B330 very often without any problems! Now i am on B330 again (but MoDaCo version!). let`s see how long. ;-O
Okay, so you seem to change often..May i ask why you do so many switched and what Version works best for you?

I thought that was kind of normal with that update error, as the system seemed to run okay after that. Yesterday I did it again, but it wiped my data.. **** happens. I can't see a difference, but hey: now it's 100%

Hi,
I have a PLK-L01C432B121 build.
Until now, i cannot get the update to Marshmallow.
Is it normal ?
Do you think i'll have to wait a long time ?
I lives in north africa.
Thanks.

Same here in Greece.. I'm also still waiting for MM.. Currently at PLK-L01C432B180.. No OTA, no nothing..

Yes you're right.
But i wanted as a normal user to get access to this feature.
For now, i still cannot get any update and i got a funny answer from Honor support.
They told me that i have to go to Serbia if i wants to update my honor since i bought it there last year.
But i lives in africa now lol.
So the only remaining solution is the local update when i will finally find the right procedure.

The right procedure would be
Make a backup of all your data, contacts, apps etc using Huawei hisuite.
Download the firmware you want to upgrade to and extract to get UPDATE.APP
Copy it to a folder named dload in your SD card and press and hold power, Vol up and Vol down until phone boots up. Let go of power after booting but keep other two pressed for five six sec more.
It will do a forced upgrade and you will lose all your stuff. Boot into Android, update Huawei backup app and restore your backup using hisuite and you are done.
Hope it helps.
looks clear.
Thank you very much muradulislam
Still in beta. It's not a big of a change from lollipop
sorry folks but after reviewing all my experience with MM (B380) i recommend to update with Lollipop B180 (B190 if available) only!
With B380 it is possible, that you will get some trouble with it! At the moment, B380 was removed from the support side of HONOR!
Maybe it has a reason!
That's a bit sad to hear. But it's full of sense. Thank you.

Most of the users that i know (me included!), did not confirm that!
i own two Honor 7. I tried MM on one of them for four weeks. After this period, i have done a rollback to B190 Lollipop.
Since this moment, all my problems are gone! I could not believe, that HONOR will bring us an trouble-free version of MM.
Really strange that Huawei remains unable to deliver a clean Os. Such a big company with that quality of phones !

i didn’t understand your friendly offer! I had used MM on my phone, so i was able to install MM on it! But i have get the same notification problem with "WhatsApp"
as the other users have reported here! And some of my apps have stopped their work during the night. I had protected these apps against termination in the energy manager, but it doesn't help! I think, it is a problem of the build in MM "deep sleep" functionality! And yes, i had made a factory reset in the beginning of my experiences.
But thx anyway!

CAN-L01 "NRD90M test-keys" problem

Hi,
i've upgraded my Huawei Nova (european version, vodafone branded) to android 7.0 via official OTA update. Soon i realized that this version was bugged, so i decided to do a factory data reset, but after the phone rebooted an error like "impossible reset" came out and i could only press on "reboot system now". It looped on logo for a while and then the welcome page appared (like it was successfully restored).
After all the process of the first configuration, i got my device working but i realized that again something was wrong. The phone signal indicator keeps telling me i'm connected via 3G or 4G even if i switch off mobile data, themes app doesn't work and under Build number i have NRD90M test-keys; plus the updater app wont open.
I've tried some guide on this forum, specially the one that say to apply the patch "update_data_full_CAN-L01_hw_eu", but all the pakage i've tried gave me the same error "Software install failed" at 5% of the process of installation.
I don't reallt know what to do now to get the phone works properly. If anyone can help i'll really appreciate.
Wellcome to nova android 7 era and same as many other person like me there is no certain fix for these problem??

I've resolved the "NRD90M test-keys" problem manually flashing an update for my Nova (CAN-L01C02) with the version B340 that i found with FirmwareFinder without rooting or unlocking the bootloader. I put the links if someone is interested.
First flash the big one http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1371/g79/v86683/f1/full/update.zip (at this point the "NRD90M test-keys" problem still here)
Then the small update http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1371/g79/v86683/f1/full/CAN-L01_vodafone_default/update_data_full_CAN-L01_vodafone_default.zip that will fix the "NRD90M test-keys" problem and all the other problems (theme app not working ecc.)
Now the phone works fine, except for the update app that still won't open, but it is not a big problem because you can still flash updates manually. :good:
Welcome to the Pupped up club ...
You said that youve updated via OTA ?...the ''normal usual way'' tu update / upgrade ?
you did not use firmware finder... is that it ?
im asking cuz,via the ''normal / official OTA way,few of us are having problems BUT...
if your upgrade comes from firmware finder (or else), you can be 98% shure to have problems (like theme manager)
My wife and i have the same Nova Plus MLA-L03...
i did the upgrade via firmware finder on my device and, not happy at all
My wife did hers via OTA normal/carrier way and her phone just work perfectly...
and if you ask IF theres a way back to MM, well forget it... we just CANT rollback to Marshmallow/emui4.1:crying::crying:

Yes, at first i've updated via official OTA (the ''normal usual way'' to update) and i got all the problems described in the first post; then to resolve i've downloaded the firmware with firmware finder and flashed with the 3 buttons metod, and almost all is fixed now.

if it's not working is because you're flashing the wrong version of the update file, be sure to use the correct version (CAN-L01Cxxx) where xxx is the version you've installed in you device, then with "firmwarefinder" search the correct update file and flash it. This method have to work.

From what i know, that number version only change which system apps you have installed by default (of brand ecc.) so i can't find a reason for that be a problem. Insted you have the dual sim version right? Maybe is because you have flashed the single sim version?

No updates OTA or via Huawei HiSuite for unlocked GB handset. Still on B120. Help!

Any idea why I've not had any updates on my Sim Free UK P10 Plus? I'm still running VKY-L09C432B120. Have updates been released in the UK for this phone? Also, not sure if it's related, in About Phone>Certification: it says Serbia.
I had the same problem on my VKY-L29C636 and I had to manually update using this app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teammt.gmanrainy.huaweifirmwarefinder
Sometimes, you can get updates in their HiCare app, when you can't get them from the update in phone settings.

Thanks both, I'll try HiSuite when I get chance. Will installing an update via the firmware finder app invalidate warranty? Also, do I need to be rooted for it to work?

No it doesn't invalidate the warranty because those updates are the official ones. And because of that, it does not need to be rooted to work. I went 12 rounds with that app and finally figured it out so if you need any help with it, I would be happy to help you save some time.
I have the same issue on mine. Assuming it is an issue of course. Odd that March is last update though...

Use HWOTA or FunkyHuawei to get updates. Even Firmware Finder will allow you get C432B162.
Thanks all for the advice, I used Firmware Finder and now have my P10 Plus running B162.
One upside of the upgrade is that I can now use the full 220mbps available from my Virgin Hub instead of the 30mbps I was limited to before.
Seems I've run into a little trouble updating to the latest firmware version on Firmware Finder. B175 is available but when I try to install it shows as unauthorised. I've tried this with both the proxy enabled throughout the upgrade and disabled after the initial setup. Any ideas?

This happens a lot with Firmware Finder, it's not always possible to install f/w even though it's available. In this instance your two options are HWOTA method (search these forums) or Funky Huawei's pay service.
The only improvement in B175 is Android Security Patch dated 5th October.

If you have September Security Patch then I wouldn't worry too much, I think that's the one that fixed the BlueBorne vulnerability...
HWOTA requires backing up, unlocking bootlader (which wipes device), updating then restoring. That's too much bother for me so I chose to pay for the upgrade. Each to their own. Firmware Finder is great but it requires Huawei authorising the update, which they don't always do.

I have this problem with b175, all the others work.
I contacted firmware finder and they couldn't really understand English. If you notice though on ff there is a few other updates that are not compatible too listed above,to be fair I'm not sure b175 is even out on the p10 plus yet? It's only mentioned for the p10 when you Google search but it's annoying me now because I want another update just to verify that my phone can be still kept up to date via the app
hi all,
I am really struggling with this. My P10+ is on B120 and I cannot for the life of me upgrade it. I tried Firmware finder in proxy mode or download mode. I tried downloading it on the pc and copy to the sd card , still no luck.
I seem to be getting, this firmware is not verified or that the download isn't verified. i also now have to press the power button whenever i restart the phone. is there any solution to this ?

I seem to have the same issue although mine is the P10. Picked up sim free from Argos. Still running B120 and device also says certified in Serbia. Also struggling with the forced update method. Getting a bit frustrated.

I did make an attempt but it didn't work for me. I'm not that confident going through the process either. Was kinda hoping there'd be an OTA waiting for me. Huawei Twitter support says B162 is the latest authorised release from them but can't seem to tell me much else.
Anyone resolve this issue yet? I will get in touch with huawei and ask if needed. im b120 still running march 2017 update. it a shame. i bought from amazon uk
Good news guys! I figured out the way to download the software updates! Go into the preinstalled app on your phone called Emui Software Updates, click on the three dots on top right of your screen, and click on download latest software packages.. Voila! Hope this helped! Im currently downloading B171 for my UK sim free p10.

New update -->FRDL19-B399 & FRDL09-B398

Any one tried the new updates ? they are available in Firmware finder .​I think they are with latest security patch and also they mentioned :: "This update optimizes power consumption and improves system security with Google security patches" .
If some one tried it please review below.

You should always flash new updates using Huawei suite for PC as it always works. Make sure to flash stock Boot and Recovery if rooted before proceeding.
Cheers!

Once you get the notification for system update on your phone, it will automatically be available on Hisuite.
Make sure to back up user data before flashing any update as you may need to manually perform a factory reset before using the new update. I own an FRD-L14 US version and i am on the latest update for my model thanks to Huawei Pc suite. All other methods always fail after 5 - 10%.
To update using Hisuite, simply launch the PC software and click on update after properly connecting your phone. I have been referring to only the PC version as i can't vouch for the phone software.
NB: Don't forget to flash stock boot and recovery if you've modified your device prior to using Hisuite otherwise it'll fail after reboot to recovery.
Best of luck, Cheers!

thanks for awesome guide i will definetly try this:good::highfive:
You will get the OTA some weeks later. Until then, you will not be able to flash the update through any official means (like using HiSuite, TWRP, erecovery, etc.). If your bootloader is unlocked, try my "Flashing unapproved Firmwares" guide for Honor 8 in Guides section. It will work flawlessly.
Did anyone already successfully manage to install e.g FRD-L19C432B399 ?
I tried dload, Red_lotus and flashing with FRD_RECOVERY_NoCheck.img
Yet it always tells me "installation failed" Is there anything i can do to get it work?
I am coming from B398 and need this battery optimization update or I will sell my phone..

i took the day to reply because i wanted to play it safe before i tell you how battery life is.
i've been getting 12+ hour battery life on my usual days, if i'm out and about doing things i last 10ish hours.
the update seems to be a little better on the battery side, but november patches are nice as well.

Nice to hear about it. For 12h you mean global usage or screen time? Anyway I sent my phone for battery replacement. We'll see when it comes back

sorry about the late reply, but yes 12hr battery global. for screen on time i get 4-5hrs usually, i just got this phone a few months ago as a FRD-L04. i rebranded because of how slow updates come out on the L04, which was my real only complaint with this phone. battery life is awesome and emui is sleek and nice compared to other OEM android roms.
i don't really care for much about SOT because my whole goal is to minimize that as much as possible. i use a moto 360 daily so most of my notifications are going to my watch and my phone stays in my pocket.
other than that, this update is just a security patch.
