I used the latest stock fw and it worked! (C432b174)
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] linuxapp:
I flashed it together with stock firmware B103 with internal storage through the volume up+down+power key. It didn't fix my problem.

And do I need to delete the eu folder since I am using the Aisa version VIE-L29C636?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] mR.fR34ky:
then you need the hw folder from an L29 firmware!!!!!

Any idea about my phone get no OTA since B181 ???
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] scotty2b:
Hi,

My phone is VIE-L29C185B181 and I've tried your tuto with firmware finder.

I've donwload B380, all was correct, after reboot the phone said, failed to install, and reboot...

I dont know why !

Any idea ?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Mostar088:
If the Firmware is not signed by Huawei it will fail.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] scotty2b:
OK but verification was OK before the reboot, and when going to stock recovery, install started and failed ???

Which firmware I must use to upgrade VIE-L29C185B181 ?

Best regards.

UP : I've tried to install VIE-L29C185B360 FULLOTA, and all is good, thank you. I will try to install VIE-L29C185B380 later.

Yes, but none of B382 ROMs is approved for flashing, according to Firmware Finder.

After updating the battery is much better.

Updating to what?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] m_apitt:
hi all.. im from malaysia.. currently i using android nougat build number VIE - L29C636B370. battery drain so fast.. can somebody teach me how to rollback to marchmallow.. i already tried by flashing using rollback package download from huawei website but its error.. error messages, "software update failed. please download a right package".

thanks.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] soft-touch:
The Rollback package works for me. Check your SDcard. From my experience, if SDcard is a slow type (slow write and read speed) software error will always occur.

So, get another SD.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] m_apitt:
Hi.. I already manage to rollback to marchmallow.. Anyway thanks for your suggestion..
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] ctibor:
Please, don't forget reporting back your experience. Does the battery life get better than it was on Nougat?

I found the new firmware for c636B384 from firmware finder.... but i said is unauthorized..... who know how to use it?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] orbb39:
Hi,

Do you still have the full OTA update.zip from VIE-L29C636B130 ?

I have bought my phone with this version, I've put on it twrp-3.1.1-0-vienna, made a full backup and restored it later with TWRP but now I get issues like keyboard disappeared, cannot install certain apps.. etc. Therefore I would like to put back the stock receovery.img from B130, and try from there to update normally through OTA... But I cannot download anymore this zip from huawei's website--seems it was removed.

Thanks a lot for the help !

Sorry no, the closest u get is B103. U can find it here.

I have managed to install the stock recovery from B103, then I did a SW update using update.app on dload folder on the external sd, factorty reset..and finally managed to get a good working version going : ) - your B103 .. Thanks a lot man for saving my day!

Now, I'll try and see how can I update to nougat..
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Mostar088:
Now u have to update to B180 before u upgrade to Nougat. When u are at B180 check the HiCare app if u have a OTA to Nougat, if not upgrade manually.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] orbb39:
Hi, I have manually went to 180 and then manually again to B320, from where it went by itself to B362..

I would like to go to B384 - I've downloaded it via FirmwareFinder (as it was the highest Full OTA version available) on phone but now it says "Authenticating Installation package.. Server unavailable" and then fails.

I suppose, I've done something not right ..

Do you know how can I achieve B384?, Should I go back to B180?

On B180, I have actually tried to go to B384 and it did not work, so that's why I went then to B320 and now to B362

Thanks,
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Mostar088:
B384 is not signed yet by Huawei, u can upgrade to B382.

I noticed horrible battery life C636B382 variant. WIthout using the phone I lost 15% battery while the phone is idle.

Is this experience same?

Can it be because of my cust version (C636)? or my software version B382?

May be thats why they didnt release publicly yet. The C636b384 was released along with c185b382. Now there is c185b383 released on 21st August. May be its a fix for some bugs in c185b382. It is just 150mb.

[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Kempf:
Hi dears, I'm from Brazil and I've just got my P9 Plus. I'm trying to downgrade the version but I'm not able to find out what firmware should I use. I've already tried two but none of them worked. Currentrly, I'm at the build VIE-L29C636B370 on EMUI 5.0 and it drains the battery really fast....

I tried to use the firmware from Tahiland and Brazil, but didn't work (it's says the file is not compatible with the phone version, but I'm not able to find which were the version before the update to EMUI 5.0).

Any help? Thanks!
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] masze:
Are u sure that u use a C636 build when u downgrade?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Kempf:
Thanks. Actually, I've tried some of them, downloading directly from the Huawei support site for different countries.

Ten I realized about "Firmware Finder", downloaded the VIE-L29C636B370 and forced updated the phone (VolUp + VolDown + Power - dload folder). Everithing went right, but now the Bluethoot and NFC are not turning on.. :eek:

Today I'll try a newer one (VIE-L29C636B384) and a old one (VIE-L29C636B180) with dload also, and I hope one of them works fine.

Two other wierd things:

1) The option "Updater" on the Settings just not appear.. and if I search for it, it's found, but does nothing.

2) When I dial code #*#2846579#*#, it just do nothing also.

Actually, let me ask about if am I doing the things right: I'm just downloading the firmwares (from Firmware Finder or Huawei repository, putting them in the dload folder on SDCard and ruuning the update trought VolUp + VolDown + Pwr. Is that right, or should I go to the rollback (I do not read enough about it..).

If you have any other suggestion, please, let me know.

;)

why doesn't b373 for c432 in ff not getting aproved from Huawei, it has been on ff in a long time now...
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Kempf:
I'm sorry, I do not know if I understood well:

My current model of phone is VIE-

L29C636

, you are saying that I should change it for VIE-

L09C432

and then download the FullOTA VIE-L09C432

B373

?

Doubts:

1) This change from L29 to L09 would not impact in anything?

2) When I check the firmware acces (with IMEI) the result is that the firmware is not approved for installation. Could I proceed with it?

Also, this method I'm using to install/updgrade/downlgrade (sdload) is OK?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] masze:
no, no... u should only use C636

I've download the VIE-L29C636B384 and 382 (both approved by checking the firmware access with IMEI) but when I try to install it (VolUP + VolDown + Pwr) it fails (Software install failed!)

Am doing something wrong, but I don't know what:

1) When I download the file from FF it comes with three zip files: 1) update, 2) update_data_full_public and 3) update_full_VIE-L29_hw_spcseas.

2) I extract the update.zip that generate one folder (META-INF) and other three files: 1) full_mainpkg.tag , 2) UPDATE.app and 3) VERSION.mbn.

3) I copy the UPDATE.app to the dload folder on the SDCard of the phone and then try to install it by VolUP + VolDown + Pwr.

Please, help me, I need the Bluetooth and NFC properly working..
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] masze:
Have you tryed to update through DNS ?

or

Through proxy:

1. Run Firmware Finder

2. Go to settings and Enable Installation via system update.

3. Tool will prompt to download Firmware Finder Proxy - do it then install it

4. Go back to the tool and select firmware of your choice - make sure you select FULL (not OTA)

5. Firmware Finder Proxy window will open - do as described - go to Wifi, advanced add manual proxy as local host with 8080 port

6. Go to phone settings - system update and choose three dots to download full package

7. It will attempt to download it but it may fail (as in my case) with message about unstable internet connection - go back to wifi settings and disable proxy, go back to update and resume it - update should start to download then follow as on screen instructions.

B130 is OTA, u need a FullOTA firmware to upgrade. And if u want to go to Nougat u need to bee on B180 so u are stuck.

The C636 is the Asian version, do u live in that region and use a simcard from Asia?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] KBEscalona:
Yes i'm from the Philippines.

Status now is I've installed TWRP but can't find any roms on the web. all of which are dead links from HiCloud. So i need to get B180 ROM then OTA update to Nougat?

Hi Mostar, I've successfully upgraded to B180 using TWRP since dload option did not work for me. Tried using update but no updates. i want to return to all stock with bootloader lock. can i ask some help to any link i can download full OTA. many many thanks in advance.

P.S. I've noticed in the FF and details of my phone, that the build number is VIE-L29C900B180.. does this mean i bought a phone second hand that is not really from my country???
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Mostar088:
That meens that your phone was not a pure C636 phone, it was sold from a Philippine provider. If u check the Project Menu by typing *#*#2846579#*#* and choose option 3 and then option 4 and in Vendor Country Info it should say Vendor:hw Country:specseas

If it says something else u have to debrand your phone by using SrkTool Huawei.

Since u allready have unlocked the bootloader and have TWRP u have done half the job.

U need too root the phone now with SrkTool and flash oeminfo from C636 and then return to stock recovery that u also can find in the SrkTool, then flash the same firmware B180 again and u should be god to go, then your version should be VIE-L29C636B180.

After that your phone will have locked Bootloader and u should recive OTA for Nougat.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] KBEscalona:
Hi Mostar. I've tried the instructions and so far i manage to reach the rooting and flashing the oeminfo c636. after that it rebooted but it was asking decrypting password i entered my usual passwork but failed then it reseted the phone.

afterwhich i found my phone on VIE-L29C636B180 build. Also when my phone boot it say device is unverified and all red fonts with 3 options press power, press up vol and leave it for 5 sec. I've tried to go recovery and found that twrp is gone and stock recovery was found.

question do i need to install twrp again in order to flash b180 since I've tried dload option and I've got system failed error. i also have my bootloader code to relock it via srktool ver. stable V1.3-20160619
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Mostar088:
No u dont need TWRP to flash, u must do it with stock recovery. It fail the first time because your phone was not C636 free from provider. Now it should install without error. When u flash again the bootloader will be locked and the warning will be gone.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] KBEscalona:
Hi Mostar, I've managed everything to update to nougat. the problem now is i cannot get in the menu due to decryption password for storage. is there anyway to decrypt it. also keyboard is not appearing in the password so i guess this is the end of it. Thank you again for the help.

P.S. i managed to rest everything again wipe partition and restore factory settings. when rebooted i'm missing keyboard and only google voice and the updater is missing form the settings.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Mostar088:
You are moving a little to fast, how did u upgrade? By OTA or manually?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] KBEscalona:
I did it using the upgrade from the updater.

- i was on b180 after changing to C636 then the update was present on the updater and i update to nougat at version b362 (OTA).

- upon upgrading i encountered an error for decrryption storage.

- i restored factory setting at the recovery (not twrp) and wipe cache partition

- upon booting i was greeted by the usual menu after factory reset but cannot enter google account since on g-voice typing is present )skip everything to the point i'm on the homepage.

- upon checking the following is missing.

- updater

- themes do not work

- keyboard from Huawei missing plus file manager

- installed gboard keyboard via apk using the download app as alternative to filemanager. entered my google account to run playstore. installe firmware finder and astro filemanager.
