Just wanted to follow up, found this post when I was looking for the same item - were you successful in locating & re branding? I just had to recover mine (Rogers VKY L09) - so can help if needed
I am interested in re-branding my Rogers model VKY-L09 to a dual sim variant, but am unsure which firmware to use? Any help is appreciated.

There's a walkthrough for using HWOTA to rebrand to the L29 model: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p1...nvert-to-dualsim-huawei-p10-plus-vky-t3605071 Works very well, changed my Fido/Rogers L09 without any issues. The instructions can be a little confusing but you should be ok if you've flashed phones before. Just post in the thread or send me a PM if you need a hand.
Keep in mind - you seem to lose the VoLTE features by rebranding. Maybe I missed something but it worked on stock L09 but disappeared after the rebrand.

I just used the L29 ROM linked in the guide. It's an older build but it'll get the OTA updates to the latest version available.

I'm thinking of buying the Axon 7, but I'd like to unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP and flash CM (when it'll be released). Will I be able to do this with all variants, or will I need a specific one? As a follow up - how do I tell which model number is for a certain variant - for example, the first Axon on Amazon (can't link, it's the gold one for $399.98) is model A7G333, which I haven't seen here on XDA.
If something's not clear, please tell me and I'll clarify (English isn't my first language).
You can do it with all variants unofficially!

Unlock bootloader after using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-how-to-unlock-bootloader-stay-t3461165
The USA version should be model A2017U
The EU version should be model A2017G
The China version should be model A2017

Hello. I want to root my P8 lite, but I've read about some tutorials/files being for chinese version of Marshmallow and other for Kirin chipset, and as a newbie, I'm quite lost in it and I don't know which files / tutorial I have to use. I really don't want to brick my phone.
So can someone upload or post link to files or whole unlocking bootloader->flashing TWRP->root tutorial that will work on 6.0 B574 version?

As a result of that, I can't flash nor backup the oeminfo or any other partition!

I used it to Flash Blackball's Custom ROM. So while I have not rebranded with it, I am pretty sure the TWRP will work.

VKY-AL00 rebrand final solution
After spending 10+ hours trying to get this phone to an european model, I kinda gave up. The main reason for the rebrand was because the newsfeed was in chinese and there is no play store, so you can hardly get your normal apps.
So I finally decided to go with openkirin (.net).
- Reflash your stock recovery and do a clean install(maybe through your stock recovery) of the latest stock version of your system.
- Then follow the guide on openkirin.
I used the omnirom 3.1 beta. Works great, the guide only took 30 min tops. Everything seems to work fine and you have direct access to an english newsfeed and the playstore.
I followed every guide on rebranding, but got nothing to work. This gives your phone a clean android system so it is at least fully usable.
Good luck
Hi guys, I'm out of USA.
After many failed attempts still can not debrand my AT&T SM-G950U.
Through ODIN I upgraded successfully to latest G950USQS1AQF7_USC
But can not find any unlocked firmware (XAA) to my S8, only for S8+.
Any idea where to find it?
Thanks.

Not searching very hard then. Update.com and search firmwares for G950U1. You'll see the latest XAA listed.
Works great (Minus volte and wifi calling), I've been running it myself
Thanks joe3681 for you answer.
Firmware downloaded from sammobile (G950U1UEU1AQE3_G950U1OYM1AQE3_XAA)
But i got the following error when try to install it: FAIL! Model dismatch fail
Sounds like it's not correct fw then.

This is what I used and it worked perfect. I also always use the modded Odin and remove .md5 off the end of everything once I extract it all.
Ok!!
The modded odin works!!
Debranded!!

Could you plz provide the link for upgrading to AQF7. I have an at&t galaxy s8 as well and i am outside US so haven't been able to update it. I have unlocked my phone already. Bt no OTA updates. Plz provide me the link for the file. Thank you. I have

Hi Guys, I'm in the same case as the OP, and I have always updated via Odin using Sammobile's firmware, which only includes the AP file. I already downloaded the modded Odin and firmware from joe's post, but it includes a lot more files.
Should I load all the files to Odin? or just flashing the AP file would be OK? Thank you very much in advance!

Hi all,
I wanted to aks, if somebody can help me rolling back my device to an earlier Patch?
I tried some Filmwares with the force Dload Method, but it always ended at 5 %
my Device is a VKY-L09
locked bootloader
Use this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/how-to/unlock-bootloader-code-t3859685
1a. Downgrade firmware to 8.0.0.xxx (June patch) via androidhost.ru - search for your device, get a C432 version.
1b. Downgrade, instructions are in the 'ReleaseDoc' folder. Use the forced install method
I rolled back from september or october update to june's. there's instructions inside every firmware (nothing fancy, used default tutorial in there). Mine device was also locked VKY-L29.
I would appreciate if anyone successfully rolled back from VKY-L09 8.0.0.327 (C654) (November patch) can confirm it...
Also, as this has been probably done for getting the bootloader unlocked, if you can confirm being able to unlock the bootloader, I would appreciate it even more
What firmware did you use to roll back?
My understanding is (and I might be wrong) that rolling back from C654 can brick the phone, so just want to stay on the safe side.
TIA

Thanks @StarSix01, that is what I am afraid too. In summary, I think one cannot unlock bootloader if on C654B327 as neither it can be done by any tool/hack (so far) nor it can be rolled down to the build that can be unlocked. :crying:

Yes i think thats The Case
My understanding is that you may downgrade firmware to june's, so you could unlock bootloader.
i did that with L29 model, don't see why it should differ to L09.
You can not unlock bootloader with firmware newer than june's - that's true, but that's not the same as downgrade. Take a look at tutorial link i posted beforw. There're step by step instructions ± a link to telegram chat with support.

Ok, next question - do you follow HUAWEI VKY-L09 8.0.0.370(C432) Software Upgrade Guideline.docx guide from "release doc" folder? And if yes, do you use "Force upgrade" mode?
If both answers is "yes", then did you try to download september/october firmware and try to downgrade to it?
