So I'm on 190 and my phone is unlocked and rooted with twrp installed, do I need to do anything to flash 361? Or will it all be on to just flash then try to root again after?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Z-Blade:
Via the dload method, you dont need to do anything but I have little success with using the dload method. I find using HiSuite and Updater is more reliable but if you are going to go this way, its recommended that you un-root your phone before hand.

I gave up waiting for Optus and Huawei, so I unbranded it to C432 and flashed B361 via the HiSuite and Updater.

I just got a Voda L09C346B150 - still no updates.. :( so keen to get android 7 after seeing all the new features coming
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cheetah2k:
I'm the same. Still on B150 :( is there any way we can flash the latest version over this????
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] adm510:
With the Dload method we might need to install B360 before rolling up to the B361 version.

Found a few blogs that seem to confirm this approach
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cheetah2k:
Sorry to be a noob, how do we debrand these phones? Changing the C number? How is this done?

Cheers in advance. First time Huawei user here
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cheetah2k:
So we download the FULL C636 generic Aussie B360 firmware and put on the SD card under a dload directory?

Really keen to give this a go.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] benjamen50:
There is a way but that would most likely require using a debranded australian firmware. And I don't want to do that personally because there are too many posts on here that talk about bricking their phone. I've flashed Custom roms, rooted, xposed on Samsung phones before but it definitely does not sound as easy as it does on a Huawei device though.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cheetah2k:
Good point... just makes me sad it looks like I'll never get an upgrade..

Will there ever be any updates for the Huawei P9 to Android 7, or will we be left behind all of the other carrier P9 handsets???

*************

We get that you want the latest software for your phone and we want you to have the best possible experience with your Huawei.

We will test and roll out any software updates for devices that we stock, as quickly as we possibly can. That said, it's the phone manufacturer that decides which updates are release for each specific device on each individual carrier.

A simple way to look at the update process is like this:

1. Manufacturer releases update

2. Vodafone tests update for issues/compliance

3. Tested update sent back to manufacturer for any adjustments or final changes

4. Final update sent to Vodafone for roll-out

5. Update released to customers for that specific device

To get an answer about if/when your P9 will get an update to Android 7, the right people to ask are Huawei support over here.

If there's anything else that we can help with in the meantime, please let us know.

I reckon my Vodafone P9 will probably reach 12 months old before Android 7.x is available - and by then I'll be eligible to upgrade handsets for an extra $149. Maybe the P10 will be out then or at least the new Mate 9.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] eoga:
Has anyone find out how to update to B361? Every time I try i am getting the same problem where the update process failed at 5%. I have the L09C636 using B168. I see someone mentioned that we may install B360 before to install B361 but I dont see this version, B360, under Firmware Finder. I think is silly to have the update right there but not to be able to install it.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] adm510:
Go to the link zblade listed on page 4 to find b360

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] i2ectcf:
I'm on L09C636B361 too. I went from B168 to B190 to B361 using the guide here. Unlike C432B361 it's actually got 'HiBoard' (leftmost page of home screen which can be enabled in home screen settings.)

However I can't seem to do much with HiBoard. You can flip a switch that is supposed to enable News, and you can select from a bunch of Interests. But these get reset and disabled as soon as you exit HiBoard's settings page.

Also tapping on 'Smartcare' in HiBoard does nothing...not sure what that is for.

Can you please confirm if it's the same case for you?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] adm510:
Apologies, there's only the FRD-L09C636B360 OTA version on that site
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chris261:
Hi All,

I have an optus brand P9 that was on EVA-L09C34B140 and managed to unbrand it using the Huawei P9 C636B168 update found on the Huawei website.

Be warned I wasn't able to unlock my sim until I did a factory reset via recovery mode(press and hold power and vol up buttons when booting until the Huawei logo appears) . No matter how many times I put the correct number in it wouldn't work and wouldn't even register the tries.

Instructions are in the zip file that contains the update.

The only thing that I don't understand is the phone is now showing EVA-L09C900B168.

I'll try L09C636B361 sometime this week when I have time to reload everything after the update.

TBH I wish I could just put stock android on it. I have a Nexus 6, loaned to a friend, and would have stayed with it but I wanted a phone that I could expand the memory so I could use it in place of my iPod.

Cheers

Chris
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Z-Blade:
Your firmware is EVA-L09C900B168 is because your oeminfo does not match your firmware version when you see C900 in the firmware, it means it a cross flash firmware. You will need to flash a L09C636 oeminfo to fix the issue.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cheetah2k:
Did you do this by the dload method - putting the C636B168 full ota in the dload directory?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chris261:
Yes. I did. But my guess is I've missed something such as unlocking the bootloader.

I'll be doing that this weekend if time permits.

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] i2ectcf:
Congrats ! I'd be interested in knowing if you have HiBoard, and can you enable Interests in the News section? Also, can you get the Smartcare menu item in HiBoard to respond to a tap? Seemed like those parts of the firmware weren't working for me, even if I logged in with a Huawei ID and everything. Thanks.

Hi guys, I am a NZ P9 user, I bought the phone from Spark NZ, which had its branding on it, I updated it to the latest firmware security patch manually one day and now my phone is coming up with the non oem matched version ie EVA-L09C900168.

I have been told that if I remain on this I would get no new updates to 7.0 is there any way to get back to the NZ firmware i had before so I can get the update?

Thanks in advance! :)

You got a problem with the way HUAWEI just pushed me an update?

There will be others here in Aus\NZ that will be getting this just now..

And I have reported that it's a clean install and working well..

Just as a statement before you shoot your fingers off again..

I have been happy with the phone as it has been.. hasn't given me any troubles..

Had 6 good trips around SEA with it and taken a **** load of great photos.

used it for work for 14+ months now and as said done what its suppose..

Prob will upgrade towards the end of the year..

So yea.. a clean upgrade to N7 is nice..

Pull your head in and read before you post..

Edits: came across one problem so far.

Using the Google Android SMS app..

Giving me a not sent error.

Upgrade wipes the SMS centre number..

Had to reload it in..(check your network operator website site for this and how to).

Still has problems with it sending as in showing sending. (But had sent)

Deleted app.. reinstall.. will see how it goes and report back..

Stock app working, but I don't like the bland look of it...

Android Ice Cold Project​

AICP is known by everyone as Ice Cold Project that started on Desire HD and since then evolved into a mature ROM with the BEST community you can find!!!

Until Lollipop, Rom has always been AOKP based. Unfortunately, since AOKP either stopped development or will make a comeback later this year, we changed our base to CM when it comes to hardware, drivers and some features.

If there are any bugs, either we will sort them or CM team if it concerns their modifications. This rom isn't CM supported so no need to report errors or bugs to them!!

Don't disable Heads-Up. You wont be able to answer phone calls otherwise.

​

ROMS should contain everything you need to enjoy Lollipop. You are not required to install any Add Ons, simply download the latest ROM, gapps, flash it, and go!

You are STRONGLY recommended to fully wipe your device before flashing, and if possible avoid restoring system apps and system data with Titanium Backup - these can cause stability issues that are very hard to debug. If you believe you know what you're doing - then fine, go ahead, but please don't complain if you experience strange behavior.

How to flash:

Don't do it if you don't know it

ROM has gapps persistance in between dirty flashes

KERNEL:

Kernel in this rom follows CM source with custom additions.

Hey Guys, I have got a big problem here. I had installed the latest release dated 28th Jan (link given by one of the developers). I had upgraded my TWRP to 3.0.2-0 then i installed the rom zip and the gapps zip. At first time it booted up normally without any bugs and all. However after next boot onwards i started getting many background app crashes so i decided to revert back to the TWRP backup which i had made on newly upgraded TWRP just before installing this rom. I had taken backup and then wiped everything to install.

After i restored with no errors i am stuck in boot loop. I mobile restarts and then holds on the boot animation and the vibrates and restarts again. This happens endlessly. I tried to re-wipe everything and restore but it didn't help. I tried to wipe everything and reinstall this rom again but now mobile turns up upto aicp boot animation and the screen turns off and only blue led indication comes on.

I have tried almost everything in laslt 24 hours but no way did anything. Am still stuck at endless bootloop.

This is all that i tried.

1. I tried to flash ROM S288 using QFIL : bootloop

2. I tried to flash ROM S285 using QFIL: bootloop

3. I tried to change partition from ext4 to fat and then back to ext4 for system and data and then restore twrp backup : Bootloop

4. I tried to change partition from ext4 to fat and then back to ext4 for system and data and then install aicp installable zip with gapps :stuck after boot animation with screen off and blue led on.

5. I erased all the partitions and formated all internal partitions as signle ext4 file system (29GB size) and then download stock rom with stock recovery using QFIL. : Bootloop.

There is only way i can stop bootloop and that is i force it to boot in recovery mode (stock/twrp). In either of the recovery mode it boots up and works normally. But irreespective of any rom i try to install it always ends up in bootloop. There is something that it is looking for just after boot animation which it is not able to find after boot animation and hence it boots again. I am not sure what it is looking for so i tried to erase every partition and restore that by downloading stock rom using qfil both lolipop and marshmallow version but still no use.

Please guys tell me what can be done now. its been over 24 hrs am struggling and i guess i already did everything i knew. Now i need your help.

Bro flashed that clean TWRP Backup as per your advice. Well it results in same.

After flashing the complete TWRP backup. I did not had Mobile P/N, S/N, IMEI no for both the solts.

Then i restored my imei from old qcn backup. and again radio turned off.

Suggest something new now.

This is for sure that when i restore my qcn then something wrong happens.
