Hi, i am somewhat new to this, i have a ALE-L23 (i think it is a single SIM cause in my box comes only one imei) which used to have android 5 (emui 3) so i downloaded & installed the C432B565 update so i could update my phone to android 6, everything went fine (did it trough the official huawei app) and generally speaking my phone works normally but now i see in the build number hi6210sft and in the build model BalongC52B311
As i said, everything works fine, the only issue i have at the moment is that my computer can't recognize my phone when i connect it via USB (The battery does charge itself tough, and when i connect my S4 the computer does recognize it, so i know the cable is not the problem here)
Do you think it is somehow related? Should i worry about the build number and model? Is there any way to fix it? preferably without unlocking my bootloader as my warranty is still valid.
Any help will be highly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Well you have the infamous Balong Bug.. Nothing to worry about.. But the computer should be able to detect your device.. I too had it, while transitioning from Lollipop to Marshmallow..

Could you let me know if it worked? Also... Does the computer detect your phone as an unknown device or does'nt it do anything but charge?

So i could get rid of the balong bug, covert my L23 to L21 and convert it from single to dual SIM, but, when i upgrade it to b560 i get again build number hi6210sft, any advice ?

Ok so you're on c432 now, isn't it?
Download b132 version and flash it, after flashing that.. There must be a folder named vendor which contains update.app (small in size), flash that too.. This will remove the bug..
If successful, you may proceed to download and flash b170, b550 and all the way to b574..

[NEWS] Conversion/Rebrand between Chinese & Int'l Models is Possible w/ Unlocked BL.
Hello everyone.
After some experimentation yesterday, and with @Tkkg1994 being kind enough to provide me with the oeminfo from his European model, I can confirm that it is possible to rebrand/convert from the various models of the Mate 9.
My Mate 9 is MHA-AL00C00, but it is now fully converted into a MHA-L29C432, and is running as such with no problems.
There are a few steps involved in this, however, and it's not as simple as just flashing the oeminfo, because there is a difference in the system partition. So this will be another feature of the solution I'm working on.
If there is anyone who has their bootloader unlocked and would like to be a beta tester of conversion/rebranding to a different model, please send me a PM.
Otherwise, please wait a while and a stable solution will be made available! Again, in order to fully convert, you need an unlocked bootloader so get your code from Huawei if you haven't already.
is it possible to back to locked bootloader? my was MHA-L29C636 will ask huawei for unlock code today. will let you know when i'm get the code.
Ok sound good's, do u think it's possible to get a MHA-L09 to L29 ?
When looking in the tray it seem's to have connectors for second sim

The hardware is the same, but I think it has only one IMEI so it won't be possible to put two sims.

Yes, it's possible. Doing eRecovery resets the bootloader to locked.

I'm not sure L09 would get the same updates as L29, at least not as fast.
Doesn't care about second sim, tray is not the same, gonna get a huge memory card, b&w photos are so goods

This was possible on the P8 Lite and P9 Lite but not on P9 and Mate 8 so i am not sure if it will work on Mate 9?

We have already tested. The second IMEI shows up at 00000000000000
Once there's a tool to restore IMEI, it might be possible, but illegal in some places, to change that IMEI to something else.

If a tool is available in a next future, it could be possible to use an imei code of an old phone maybe
But still need the tray to put second sim inside.
Sounds like just what I'm looking for
I've just bought Mate 9 AL00, and would love to make it international. Have to wait for the mandatory 14 days to apply for unlocking code. Thanks,

Hi,
Is it possible to make a guide on how to make the conversion from China to international when we have the BL unblocked ?

(It's true, HCU client can do this for older phones but I think discussing changing IMEI is against XDA policy, so it's a slippery slope to discuss this. It's also illegal in many countries.)

If C432 is a single-sim device, then no. Sorry, but I don't know much about P9+.

How i can downgrade NRD90m test-keys to L21C432b160 mm with a rollback package ? i tried to put in dload folder but doesent work, i have no root,bootloader is lock(because huawei refuse to give the unlock key), no custom recovery. i want to downgrade because a lot of app is missing , and i want official when they relese it. Thanks and sorry for bad english!
was this updated through official methods?
i have the nrd90-test keys build and i have not managed to find a working image for the DLOAD folder. im also not sure if you can downgrade that easy there is a spanish forum that is oftne linked here with a downgrade guide but you 100% need unlocked bootloader to do that.
no

No i updated trough Charles app with fake ip adress. I tried to unlock bootloader but Huawei doesent want to give me unlock key because warranty,they sended me a mail.
MANY, MANY people warn about not using that method (even me) because it doesn't let you update correctly, why d'you do that? Now without an unlocked bootloader you can't even go back. Can't do anything, actually. Because to go back to MM you need it unlocked. Any other method doesn't work. Just try to obtain the bootloader code, in the meantime you can't do anything but wait. Maybe next time read other people's experiences before trying to mod your device?
I Think You were using wrong update.app . Tell me your modle number & region . I will give update.app. You can easily rollback with it

Hi, I'm currently running in android 7.0, I done the unofficial update and as it happened to everyone I don't have all the apps, I have unlocked. Bootloader, I live in UK and my model number is VNS-L31, if you give the right "update.app" file and I put it In a folder called dloader that I will make then press [+vol]+[-vol]+[power] it will downgrade to the normal update and it will be the same like when I bought it?

Try dc phoenix. To load a mm update.app. Should work even with locked boot loader or if you brick the phone. I had a similar thing happen with an it's update, I think its because I had root and redo installed.
i ended up sending the device to huawei vip service, they replaced the motherboard. i was kind of surprised, i had expected them to just reflash stock firmware but no.

My phone was soft bricked so i try with a friend and we manage to install the b19 of the A2017u model and we manage to switch on the phone. the problem is my phone is a A2017G european vesrsion and i read in the forum that some users who tries this found issues with cellular signal
my phone is locked bootloader, No twrp and no root
stock recovery and nougat 7.1.1 version B19
screenshot attached
Now i need a tuto of how to get cellular functional on this Rom or a tuto of how i can install the original A2017G firmware with original baseband
Thanks a lot
You risk a lot messing with a locked phone. I would look at the toolkit and see if it will do what you need.
Personally I would also unlock before it is truly bricked.
