You can check with Firmware Finder which is the latest update and you can download and update it. Keep in mind that it's most likely Themes app won't work when you update through Firmware Finder and you'll need root to fix it.
If I'm not mistaken, you can also change the oeminfo to a country which already published a new update, so you'll get the update faster.
Again, check if there's a new update on Firmware Finder. If there isn't, you better wait (although you might wait for nothing if Huawei won't update anymore ).

If I'm not mistaken, you can also change the oeminfo to a country which already published a new update, so you'll get the update faster.

Why did you wait if your phone is PLK-L01? I installed C432B330 when my phone build was C090B210 and nothings happened. Country is not so important I think. But I do not know if it's harmful or not. Not on me at least

Unable to debrand Huawei Nova

Hi everybody,
this is my first post so please forgive any "incorrect habit" might come out of this post.
My situation is the following: I bought a Huawei Nova smartphone about a week ago. It comes with Vodafone brand and the complete build model is CAN-L01C02B130CUSTC02D014.
I read lots of forum posts and blogs over the web and what I learned is that:
- L01 means single sim;
- C02 means that is branded Vodafone;
- B130 is the firmware version;
- CUSTC02D014 is the custom build with the debug version.
I want to debrand my smartphone (without unlocking or rooting it, if possible) so I downloaded FirmwareFinder and, from there, I fetched every firmware compatible with CAN-L01 following to my build model (made on 2016-09-14). Unfortunately, I was not able to install any of those firmwares (very strange).
Given the above-mentioned information, here are my questions:
1 - is it possible to debrand my smartphone without unlocking and rooting?
2 - is it really possible that every firmware made after mine (on 2016-09-14) failed to install?
3 - how can I pick a compatible firmware?
4 - someone wrote that before installing a more recent firmware, one must debrand by downgrading and then (only then) update the firmware itself. Is it true?
Thank you very much,
Valerio
Hi there,
I will move your thread in the correct forum dedicated to Huawei Nova/Nova Plus Questions & Answers for more relevant answers.

Ok so I need tofind a full update, but I am not able to do it on FirmwareFinder...I guess I have to wait for it a little bit...but (knowing that I have CAN-L01C02 build model) do you think I can install a CAN-L01C432 firmware when it comes out?
Thank you for your help.

I think that is better not to install it using the three button method. If you going to do it, at least have a nandroid backup, assuming you unlocked your bootloader and installed the twrp.
One other way to try, requires a unlocked bootloader too, huawei extract tool and then flash system.img and boot.img at least.
I linked the source, but Idk if it is going to work and requeries courage to do this :/
Edit: sadly, wait for the official upgrad is the most safer thing to do right now

I can tell for sure, but from the changelogs I read, it seems it is a test build or something like that. I could open it with dsixda and will try to flash as soon I unlock the bootloader but I'm waiting to get the code.

Thank you so much for the link! I think it should go flawlessly as long as it is compatible with CAN-L01 (and it actually is). The only thing that stops is that it is a test build...maybe I'll wait the official release too.

[Guide] Online Firmware finder

Hello there,
Since a lot of users are using Huawei firmware finder app on desktop or phone and it's relatively slow I guess this link should be posted for quick search instead.
This is a Russian site, but you can translate it or not since it's really easy to navigate and it finds all results pretty fast.
You can even search Model number + carrier at the same time( for example FRD-L09C10) and it will filter only those results with changelog and download link. It's always up-to-date and faster than desktop or mobile app of Huawei firmware finder.
Link: http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/база-найденных-прошивок/
PS: I'm not the owner of this site.
You can also use this address format if you don't speak Russian:
http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=FRD-L04C567
Replace FRD-L04C567 with the model you're looking for.
Though your link is in a prettier format.

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 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.
