Tried this for the 1st time over the weekend. Worked flawlessly on my MAH-AL00. I could also not get the update_full_hw_spcseas.zip file as described above. However I found the B213 version somewhere online and used it together with the B225 update.zip. It worked but when booting, my phone thought it was on B213 and immediately gave me notifications to upgrade my Firmware. Which I did and now all good.

NOTE: I did not use FF for the file as I was facing black screen of death combined with no USB debugging enabled.

Hi people .

I experienced this on STF-L09

I changed the ways of mounting the recovery under me.

All OK

why when i open update it close instantly?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Peppus:
Hi, probably because the path is too long or contains spaces. If that, copy the hwota folder directly in C:\ or the desktop.

I will tell my experience so everyone knows it and tell me if it is ok what happened or not. I got the guts to rebrand de phone from MHA-L29C605 to MHA-L29C636. The rebranding ended ok but the problem was that after rebooting the phone :crying:, after the huawei logo it start rebooting it self like crazy not allowing enter Recovery Mode neither FastBoot Mode :eek:. After a long time (or i feel it that way) of rebooting, it actually booted OK :good: :svetius:. Allowing me to perform the same brand upgrade and get my phone shiny again(with no problem at all, everything was working the fingerprint scanner, the region and phone was ok, no genreric name or other thing). As i told early i do not know if that issue is ok (please tell me if it was) . But i wanted to share my experience. Thanks to all the developers who make my mate 9 has notification icons in the status bar and not that ugly number.

Hi guys, i need a little help here because i don't seem to see too many posts for mate 9 pro but i have chinese version mate 9 pro, 6gb ram 128gb interal storage and OEM is not visable.

My build number is LON-AL00C00B187. My OEM is not visable. What I want to to do is rebrand to spceas version and then root device. Just to clarify....In the guide to update and rebrand.

Question 1: can i use the bat file programme to unlock bootloader and install twrp?

Question 2: Does the programme have prompts regarding when to unplug phone from PC?

Question 3: From that ru link which has ota's. Do I just download the files I need for the spceas version and rename them accordingly as your post suggest and use dload method via otg?...or do I need to update my build number first and then download the 3 spceas files and rename them etc etc?

Question 4: Can someone please give me a link to adb as mine is not working for some reason, mind you im still on windows 8.1

Hope you guys can help.

Hi, hope to get a clearer picture here. still kinda confused with rebranding due to complicated device IDs. Ok for example my case I'm having a bricked WAS-LX2C636B130, which device ID that I should use in order to complete my stock update. Thank you in advance. Took me almost 38 hours to be able to boot into TWRP recovery. Having a legendary WinXP desktop and 2mbp/s connection really had been a bless.

Hi guys, perhaps another silly question and just so you guys have an idea of what i'm used to doing; with my s2, s3, s4 and s5, i only ever used one app called towel root to root the phones. This process is quite a leap lol. Anyway, i've renamed the 3 zip files needed for update and rebrand procedure. With the file xml. Do i need to have that in the same directory as the 3 zip files?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] gm007:
Did you download the 3 files from first page and extract them in one folder to ur desktop?

The one (base,windows and ur phone model).

I have uploaded a working p10 plus files somewhere here in this thread.

Edit: it's on page 47.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ubermorgan:
Hi guys, i've been extremley ticked off with this process but anyway, i'd like to run this by you guys and hopefully make it easier for others as well but in regards to the update and rebrand method. The three files have been downloaded and renamed to the following: update.zip - update_all_hw.zip - update_data_public.zip : Is this correct?

As for the filelist.xml, this is what i have :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Q4 : I will save the filelist.xml along with the three zip files in my Hwupdate diretory on my ext sd. Is this correct?

Q5 : As for step D in update and rebrand and fry your brain method, am i to understand that AFTER the second flash i may have to perform a factory reset?

Thankyou to all of you who are patient esp ante0
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] marvyzoro:
Thank you for responding. Yes I did. All three files were unzipped to C:\HWOTA, not desktop and "update.bat" was run from there with administrator privilege. Here is the directory listing. Also, I went through hwota.sh, which is the script that update.bat called, I found the error "error: unknown host service" occured at this line. Not sure what i did wrong.

Thanks for the guide, updated to latest B193, all works well!

Dunno why Huawei doesn't publicly release FW updates as soon as they're ready... -_-
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ubermorgan:
hi guys. Using the bat programme from the update and rebrand method, im getting "the system cannot find path specified" after i put in my bootloader code. If i continue, which i did out of curiosity, obviously the screen turns white and it sais recovery mode or something and at the bottom it sais phone locked. How do i get around this?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] arminbih:
Ok so for anyone haveing trouble running update.bat what you need to do is this:

1. Download all 3 files that includes base, windows and phone brand one

2. extract all subfolders in one "hwota" folder

3. run update.bat

4......

5.profit
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ubermorgan:
Won't some subfolders have the same names?

---------- Post added at 12:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 AM ----------

can't we just put the oem file info that we want on an ext sd card along with the three zip files and then flash them through twrp?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] arminbih:
This is how I got it to work just sharing my experiences​ since i could not find the solution explained here.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ubermorgan:
You guys are amazing, i genuinely mean that and i'm not trying blow smoke up your bottoms but occasionaly, you may have to clarify a lot more for people like myself and maybe many other because we simply are not at your level, anyway I'm not doubting your experiences, all i am saying is that there are at least 2 subfolders from the 3 base files that have the same name, eg, oem and recovery. What your saying is that when you extracted the subfolders into HWOTA, you over wrote some of those subfolders. Not sure if your willing to post a screenshot of what you have or what you did perhaps? I simply do not know which order you did that. Unless you mean you extracted every single file from those folders into HWOTA and then ran the bat file?

Trying to flash the three zip files doesn't work by the way. Everything is encrypted.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] arminbih:
This is how it looks inside the folder, I am really sorry i can't explain it better. Attached pic (moving pic) curtecy of the new 193 update. And the 3 zip files are supposed to be on sd card in folder HWOTA renamed as described in original post this is important. Then just run the bat file and it will tell you the rest of the process. Ofc you need to have on your pc prerequisite usb drivers, fasboot and adb.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ubermorgan:
I'm starting from scratch. Won't cost anything.

---------- Post added at 03:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 PM ----------

i'll explain in more detail a little later on but i have figured this thing out. It really hasn't been explained well. Bat file programme worked fine, only thing is i forgot or didn't get the chance to flash a second time. In recovery mode it sais phone unlocked in red however it sais FRP in green. Will this be a problem if do the procedure again from scratch?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ubermorgan:
Hi guys. Relocked the bootloader through adb, factory reset and started bat file programme again. All is good. Bootloader and frp unlocked in red in recovery screen. In the update and rebrand method, i do not get a chance to flash twice, it may sound silly but does that mean i have go through the process again and select "same model update"? Reason for question is because after the first time, which didn't give a chance to flash again, i was stuck with NRDM90 test keys, when you select same model update, the bat programme gives the selections for NRDM90 not L29C636 etc.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] marvyzoro:
Thanks to gm007 and folks who helped me, but I am still stuck and am not able to complete running the script. I kept getting the this "error: unknown host service" and it appeared to occur at this line (Magenta color) below from within "hwota.sh", which is the script called by update.bat. Not sure what i did wrong. I tried running Rebrand from both SDCard and C:\Users\John\Desktop\HWOTA with same result. It did not even load the update.zip. I tried same brand once and that failed too, but at least it loaded the update.zip but gave me multiple errors and reboot to twrp.

I spent a lot of hours reading through forum but I am at wit's end and need some experienced folks to help me or continue to help me to resuscitate this newly bought device and not go to waste.

i dont have frp , but in the OP it says twrp is needed and as i said in my previous post , the phone is bricked as in when once the phone has booted , you get a black screen with only the soft keys available

feel free to explain if i am missing something
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mankindtw:
1. Power off phone.

2. Vol-Up + USB cable connected to computer.

If you can see fastboot screen, then you might be able to unlock bootloader if it doesn't say FRP locked.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] touns_j:
maybe i am dumb but how do i unlock the bootloader without an unlock code ? i can't even access the phone and get the info needed to request a unlock code from huawei website ( and that's the issue)
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] backb0ne5p1d0r:
To get your unlock code, you need the serial number and the IMEI of your device. You can get them by rebooting into bootloader and then using the command

fastboot oem get-psid

It will give you the info you need.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] touns_j:
i got the info ,can i send it to you via pm ?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] domon07:
does unlocking the bootloader break the fingerprint security? or any of the banking app out there? if the firmware relock it, does it say relocked bootloader?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] WieserZ1C:
the only thing which fails is the verification in the play store, so you aren't able to use android pay or similar. Banking apps are working without issues ( Attached screen )

Even fingerprint won't break. But after unlocking the phone wants to fac reset, which would only be bypassable by rebooting to bootloader again immediately after unlocking ( instead it normally would boot in erecovery ) then you're able to flash twrp and boot in it ( with bypassed factory reset ) There are different tutorials relaying in that ( for example decrypting the data partition to get it readable )

Hello,

I have some questions about this guide:

_ I have the C636 B172 is it possible to rebrand into any version of the C432 ?

_ [MENTION=5113515]backb0ne5p1d0r[/MENTION] mentioned in his requirement to have the oeminfo placed correctly in the TWRP Backups folder. Which oem are we talking about? Is it the one of our current version?

_ What's the point of rebranding the phone to another region? Correct me if i'm wrong but i believe that the network compatibility is not linked with the firmware but with the phone component.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Peppus:
Hi, you have to restore the oeminfo of the cust to which you want rebrand. There are a lot of people who rebranded to C636 and would like to get back to the original region, or maybe if your phone is from a company and doesn't get updates you would prefer install a free rom instead.

Cheers!
