P10 Lite (WAS-TL10) Stock ROM files - Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers

Hello all,
I'm looking for the stock rom (EMUI 5.0/Android 7.0) firmware files for my newly acquired P10 Lite (WAS-TL10).
Bought it at AliExpress, was supposed to ship with Android 7.0, but got Android 8.0 on it.
Unfortunately I need Android 7 for the sole purpose of verifying some Huawei allegations in which they pretend my app is not working properly with HMS Core version lower than 2.5.3! A version you can't find anywhere on any devices, but those Huawei phones running Android 7.0!
I say they pretend because they've made-up all kind of new rules for the past months to just prevent my apps from being published in China, as explained here: https://www.3c71.com/android/?q=node/2784
Any help would be much appreciated.

This is the only Android 7 Stock firmware I could find:
Huawei P10 Lite Dual

Thanks but the download link doesn't work at all. I've found hundredth of such links but none works. This one ends-up with 'an error occured'.
Is it the same for you or are you able to download the file?

I'm sorry, I should've checked the link first, it seems like these files were removed from Huawei servers, however, there's AFH which, luckily, has the nougat firmware.
P10 Lite Nougat 7.0

Try to downgrade to Nougat using Hisuite (official and safe way to do the downgrade). A7 firmware will not help you, there's no way downgrade (with locked bootloader) . Try chinese Hisuite :
https://mega.nz/file/1p9xyIRL#bx1M6zXqtrR38okQd4YqkYvmLfRaOBDJ2snjd8W7kqk
If the rollback option is not available with your HiSuite ("switch to the older version" or "Earlier version"), you must downgrade to the lower Oreo build version number doing the dload method (flashing Service ROM for your model and region).

Hi...
Like @-Alf- said you can try it this way. If it doesn't work for you. Search this forum for Service Rom to downgrade from emui 8 to emui 5. But be carefully by using any method. Make a full Backup of your System before doing any change. If you will downgrade to emui 5 for unlocking the bootloader. Better think about to use the Dc-unlocker for that. It will cost 4€ to get the unlock code. But its without risk to brick your device and it doesn't waste time to get it. You need to choose wat is more important for you.
So good luck

Thanks all, I was able to downgrade to EMUI 5.1, which allowed me testing very old HMS Core (2.5.2) somehow and its upgrade mechanism. Not sure I needed that device as it seems EMUI 5.1 didn't come with AppGallery at all, LOL.
Now I'd like to upgrade back to sell the device, but I haven't found a way to do so... Hi Suite tells me device is up-to-date, and OS system update tells me the same

What is your build number? (Settings > About phone )

Build number is WAS-TL10C636B187
I found a firmware, but it doesn't seem compatible ( Warsaw-TL10HK 8.0.0.371(C636)_Firmware_8.0.0_r1_EMUI8.0_05014HTC ) because upgrade says there is no update file on SD when I put the dload folder on it.
EDIT: That firmware contained zip files instead of .app, so I extracted the .app files and recreated the expected structure, and it processed the update using OS menu ( *#*#2846579#*#* ).
If any-one need the modified file, let me know.

No idea what that is lol.
After modifying the dload folder to have .app files (instead of .zip), the phone took the upgrade (editing previous post). New build number is WAS-TL10 8.0.0.371(C636).
I can now upgrade/downgrade between Android 7 and 8 for testing. That's pretty useful, so thanks to all.

WARSAW is the Name of the Phone...an p8 lite 2017 is called Prague or an Samsung S6 Edge is called zerolte
If you try to flash a firmware with another Region like C432 for Europa on a Device with C636 Asian Region...the verifying of the Update Package will not pass and update proceed will abort.
If you want to change the Region of the Device you need to use HWOTA Method for that...in the Script during configuration comes the Question to change firmware or to change location.
But be carefull by changing the Region cause the Devices for the different Regions could have different hardware integrate. Hardware like modem and so^^

OK thank you, i think modified firmware provided by 3c will work on my device as is has the same code of region c636 and the firmware flashed on my device is Asian pacific (c636)

Jfyi, the Huawei update server is down since February, so Firmware Finder is dead. Therefore, it is also not possible to use HwOTA or HuRupdater (unless someone has the necessary files stored on the disk).

Okay sounds cool I'll rebrand the question remained is what brand has the latest update?(Please provide a link to .zip update) and the last question is,if I rebrand before I install oreo what exactly happens I turn on my phone and it has a frimware from Africa but its brand is now China!Will that be able to turn on?Or I should use TWRP to install Chinese firmware from SD card.
Since I'm an android developer I need to have multiple os if possible.Has anyone tried this Or any better one?Can I use it in this case?

I download B200 tried to install via dload failed said (incompatiblity with current version ) tried with twrp failed.And I wiped my OS and tried again and failed.And lost my OS.Sort of now it shows me android logo instead of huawie logo and it's stuck on the initial setup of nougat.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/guide-how-to-downgrade-mate-8-emui-5-to-t3515202
I found this and it says the nougat version must be b500 but mine was b560 and tried to install the rollback and it failed again.I don't know what to do?I need my phone.
Couldn't find any download link of b500 did you do that on your b500 or b560?
If b500 please give me a link of NXT-L29C185B500
Tried again and it didn't give me error this time the point is that it doesn't run on B500 it makes your device B500!
After installing marshmellow the bootloader is locked again!

Hello dear,
I don't know if the 'demo' version can be unlocked (bootloader code),
but if yes then you can use @k1ll3r8e's TOOLKIT to rebrand to another region (cust)
like C432 european or C636 asian, etc... you just need the correct files.
Once you rebranded then will be possible to upgrade to nougat via Firmware Finder app
or some other tool/script.
P.S.: What version of p9 lite do you have ? L21-L22-L23-L31-L53 ?

Well, i think you can rebrand to the european firmware (C432);
both single and dual sim oeminfo files and matching firmwares (B160&B161) available. (see the attachments below)
But, like a told, you need to unlock the bootloader first.
P.S.: you already risked to brick the device trying by your own,
using the toolkit and doing something wrong could turn the device in a paperweight....beware what you do with your device !!!

Dear friend,
I agree with you and completely opposed to paying, but
I believe there are no other ways than giving up a couple of beers and
using DC-UNLOCKER which at the cost of 4 euro reads the bootloader code.
Obviously you only know if it's worth it and definitely remains your choice.
For everything you should / want to do there's a guide you just have to follow.
If you encounter any problems or are unsure about how to do,
you can always meet the community or me in this topic.
I wish you the best !!

Hello,
this happened because you
choose that firmware...
you are very lucky you didn't bricked your device.
You could try to use Firmware Finder again
to revert back to your previous version,
but as i told, you could brick it,
that's your choice.
Another way is unlock the bootloader,
install a custom recovery (TWRP),
flash an OEMinfo file and your correct firmware.
It depends on the android version,
on the region (CUST) in which you live
or for which the firmware has been released
and if the device is single or dual sim.
Good luck dude !
P.S.: took a look and it seems
the link for Hassan's twrp download
is no longer available...
Maybe other twrps are still available,
but i'm pretty sure someone could
repost it for you...

At least up to my knowledge, it is impossible to get the code without a PC (more precisely, you can unlock BL without PC only if you have the unlock code).

You can try flash it with Service ROM Download . Type VNS-L31, or VNS- .
Download correct firmware - EMUI version, Cxxx (the bracketed (Cxxx) is your device’s regional variant.
This number is very important in determining the correct firmware to download. Select your previous Cxxx, not current C00 ) and single/dual SIM (all firmwares that end with even numbers are for dual SIM, odd numbers are for single SIM).
Instructions can be found in 'ReleaseDoc' folder.
If you cannot unpack downloaded zip archive on PC, unpack it in the internal memory using this RAR apk.
Extracted 'dload' folder copy/transfer to the SD card. Good luck.

I forgot the last cxxx of the build number, but the model is l31 for sure, dual sim and comes with Android version 6.0, EMUI 4.1
There's no Service ROM for EMUI 4.1 , you have to flash UPDATE.APP file.

I think it's C636 , but I'm not sure.
Any forced flash with wrong region will bring your phone to C900 (global) or will brick your phone.
I can't help you anymore, sorry...
Ok thanks.

Update P9 Lite from Android 6 to 7

Hello everyone, I have a P9 Lite which was issued from Vodafone Europe (originally VNS-L21C02B128), and I'd like to update it to Android 7.
Since none of the stock ROMs I tried would pass the verification when updating via the Project Menu, I found and flashed a newer Android 6 which works fine apparently - build number is currently VNS-L21C900B170.
Trouble is all of the newer ROMs are still not working. During the verification phase, it says they are not compatible with the phone.
Any ideas what is the simplest safest way to get to Android 7 ? Thanks for the help.

Have you tried Service ROMs?

- Unlock the bootloader
- on android 6 rebrand to C432 global
- in TWRP install fullOTA-MF-PV VNS-L21C432B370
- then you can upgrade to a higher version by installing a Service ROM via dload method (it will lock your BL again).
The problem is probably with your current build number - the C900 is fake firmware, incomplete or incompatible. I'm afraid you won't be able to unlock the bootloader or rebrand the phone with this build.
Hello Alf, I did try VNS-L21C02B346 but it didn't work, both with the original and the newer ROM. I also tried the "SERVICE Full Repair VNS-L21 C432B381" from here, also with no luck.
The current B170 ROM was labeled as "VNS-L21C432B170" on the site I got it from, but now it shows as C900. This one updated with no problems via the Project Menu upgrade command, the only one to work so far...
I will see later about unlocking the bootloader thanks.

You can't install C432 on C02 and vice versa without changing oeminfo, that's why you now have a C900 region and failed verification.
Thanks but I don't know hot to change oeminfo. Can I use SRK Tool ?
Also is there a free way to unlock the bootloader ? Is it this one ?
Does the phone have to be dissasembled, or is there a software method as well ?
Is dc-unlocker free for phones with android 6 and 7 ?
