Would appreciate some pointers..... I have the P9 Lite Smart DIG-L23C469B101. After reading this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-t3405701
all the way through, I asked if it would work with my phone and was told that it would not. If not, can anyone suggest where I might find a way to root the phone?? Unlocking the bootloader as outlined in the above thread should work. Unless the actual buss structure is different, it looks like TWRP should work as well. Any advice or assistance much appreciated. I have used search here and have been unable to find anything definitive about this model other than someone looking for a stock Huawei ROM.
Regards

Hello everyone!
I recently bought a Huawei P8 Lite, it came with Lollipop 5.0.1. The thing is I would like to update to 5.1 at least. For all the reasons we all know about, this is kind of a must. However my operator hasn't send me the OTA package nor could I found one in any Huawei website. So I mailed them about this a few days ago, and got no answer yet.
So anyone here went through the same/has a stock 5.1 rom for this model? I have also read that some people swapped to ALE-21 for the updates and stuff, but I dont wanna mess with the baseband, since those post are not always properly detailed about this stuff.
Any comment, info, post, link, whatever on this topic will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
You can find more info here. if you don't want to upgrade to Ale-L21 just use this as a guide (Chapter 4) but with your own stock rom file that you download from the huawei website.

So i looked up the problem that you had with converting. and i put a comparison in the thread. thx for pointing out something we didn't mention before
you can find the comparison here http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=7978&id2=8162&id3=7966
the Ali-L21 supports more basebands the the ale l23 so that's all.
Seems like my only choice is to force an ale-21 single sim rom into my phone and try not to screw it in the process.. I dont understand why Huawei wont release a 5.1 update for .23 even if its the same as .21
Thank you a lot, I will follow the steps mentioned above and try some luck

Hello dude,
it's due to your region (VNS-LxxC16xxx)
maybe you will never receive the upgrade to nougat (android 7.0/EMUI 5)...
De/rebranding for example to C432/Nordic-European region or other,,,
with the Sebastian's toolkit could surely help you...
Here the link to the thread..
Ask the DEV or other users to be suggested for the suitable/best for you...

Hello,
same as previous post i wrote dude...
I made a little search and it seems your CUST/REGION (C16) is due you live in South Africa.
That's all right but maybe you will never receive any official upgrade to nougat (android 7.x/emui 5.x).
So you need to change your cust, also called "rebrand".
You can do with @k1ll3r8e toolkit, the link is in the above post.
All info is explained as well, make sure you read a couple of time and make a backup of all your files before proceed..
Donot forget to leave your thanks to the developer, he did it for all of us users..
All the best.

Hey mate use the forum to exchange all infos and files you want !!!
You are starting from zero and have a lot of things to do, try to follow and do one thing at a time....
First unlock bootloader and flash a custom recovery... TWRP suggested...
So download toolkit and simply follow what explained as well.
With the toolkit you can do everything you need to rebrand....
You need some kind of files you will flash with TWRP and stock recovery so only follow what are wrote in guide.
For the bootloader, Huawei site doesn't work so use DC-Unlocker to grab it...
Use search on the whole p9 lite thread to find what you're looking for
or kindly use @ and ask dev or other users to take an advice, i'm sure someone wil help you..
It's not really complicated, just before make some things read more time what you're planning to do.
I cannot guide you throw this, you can do it.. just believe in yourself and use brain (must powerful muscle we have..)
Have a good day dude and remember make a backup and do one thing at a time..
P.S.: To do this some basic knowledge needed. if you think you do not have them, give up... Sorry..
Hey there,
I'm sorry if this is a repeat question but I can't seem to track down a thread where it's described in detail how to root a P8 Lite 2017 running Nougat. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.
I'm just looking to root it Not anything else.
Kind regards
Chris

You can't root the device at the moment using the proper method because Huawei doesn't offer unlock codes anymore. I've read that this may be temporary.
The very first step in rooting our phone properly is by "unlocking the bootloader" and we can't do that without the unlock code.
The thread with the tutorials for rooting our device has been deleted because the owner bricked the device and ended the support.
That thread doesn't matter to me though since the instructions were not very clear, links were removed and I followed another tutorial for rooting the device for I get nowhere when following an incomplete thread.
Instead, I followed this, this or this one, searched for the appropriate files in P8 Lite (2017) threads and watched some YouTube tutorials.
These tutorials will only work if you have the unlock code.
There may be some unrecommended methods like one-click root apps or maybe using a trusted website for buying unlock codes, but I wouldn't recommend any of those and you can try them at your own risk.
Some might work or others might be just trying to steal your IMEI and other sensitive informations.
I don't even know if they are compatible or supports the device.
Hi all, sorry for making a new thread here about p9 lite 2017,but i don't know where to make. If someone can help me with a Stock Firmware and Recovery like in the title for a P9 Lite 2017. Also, if i need to flash the p8 lite 2017 firmware,how do i rebrand it for the right version. Thank you very much and sorry for making the thread here.
Hi, I think this stock recovery might help you out. Took me a few random YouTube videos to find over today, although it fixed my phone.
I found that the recovery was perfect and downloaded the correct firmware for my device itself without changing anything, it just did it over my WiFi.
Find it here
Don't blame me for damages since I don't know the most about all this, but for reference my model is PRA-LX1C432B202.
It's dual SIM and Kirin 655. Not sure if any of that matters, but it all worked okay for me. Good luck

Hey, my device is too PRA-LX1C432B203 i think, but when i flashed the P8 Lite 2017 firmware (because i couldn't find anything for P9 Lite 2017 on XDA),it shows me that i got the NRDM Test Keys and it thinks that i have a P8 lite 2017 than a P9 Lite 2017. I just need the correct info to display because i have a problem with display and i need to send it to guarantee.
Hi,
I have tried all one click root apk (kingroot, kingoroot, iroot, magisk, flamaroot and etc..)
Non of them are successful, so i go for the traditional way of properly rooting p10 lite.
And i stuck at getting the unlock code which huawei official web no longer providing the codes anymore.
Is there any solution or successful cases that i can refer to?
I am unable to unlock the bootloader. I do hope anyone can help me with this.
Thanks in advance and appreciate if anyone could help me rooting p10 lite

there's a paid method to get the bootloader code:
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/downloads/get/jvObBBIo
you must buy credits to get the feature you want. in your case, you need to buy enough credits to get your bootloader code.
OK
thanks for your info, but i really hope i can root it without paying, will explore your solution in a while though. Appreciate your suggestion.
