Ya, HUAWEI has a quite faire unlock policy.

Important: There's an unlock bug sometimes. Be sure to have the Original firmware on ur device. (No updated ROM)

Have fun.
[General Questions and Answers] jenkins-1984:
It's on latest official that came with device, I take it there is no twrp or anything out for this device ATM?
[General Questions and Answers] essayn:
Just check a view posts above. I've described how to get the newest FW.

So if the factory ROM-version is installed, unlock the BL and after then update ur ROM. Jfi. ;)

BTW_

Atm there's no custom recovery available for the M3 Lite Versions. U have to compile it by urself or make a request on Hovatek.com
[General Questions and Answers] jenkins-1984:
I'm not bothered about updating the firmware ATM more so custom recovery but will look into it after my holiday.
[General Questions and Answers] jenkins-84:
I have requested official forum for this device and looks to be accepted so hopefully get some development going for this device soon...
[General Questions and Answers] JFDee:
There seems to be no way to retrieve the unlock code for Wifi-only tablets from the official Huawei site, as it demands the IMEI which is obviously missing.

I have contacted Huawei support with the product ID and serial number of my M3 Lite 10. One day later I have received the unlock code. I think that having been polite has helped :cool:

Storage question

Hello,

First of all: sorry, if the question is 'noobish', but as a matter of fact I am noob as far as android is concerned :D

I just bought this tablet for my son (LTE version), and I was quite surprised to find out that I can't move the installed applications to SD card.

Are there any hints and tips on how to take advantage of the big SD card, so my son's game data would not have to be stored in the internal memory?

The only default option is to change the memory from internal to SD, after the tablet restarts. But I assume it uses then only the SD card, and I am looking for a solution I remember from Samsung phone, where I could choose certain apps to move from internal memory to SD.

Another question, just by the way, is following: when I install an apk file from the SD card, during the installation process every few seconds I get a pop-up saying the application is not responding (although the installation is in progress). Any way to disable those annoying pop-ups?

I'd appreciate any feedback :)
[General Questions and Answers] essayn:
There are several apps which are able to copy or move App-data to SD-card. E.g. App2SD

If the device is rooted, u have more options to choose which apps (e.g. system-apps) u can move.

It´s not recommended to install APKs from ext. SD, coz of data loss during the installation process. Most ext-SD cards aren´t that fast. So copy the apk/app to the internal storage (download-folder is recommended, coz easy to find again. ;))

In general, if u haveproblems to install APKs use APK Editor, since this tool repairs and

solve parsing-issues and annoying "...has ended"-issues.

Again, if the device is rooted, there are much more apps to available, like Lucky Patcher, to edit APKs

Man, I'm so tangled up with all this new information :) I'm relatively new to all of this.

I've recently bought 2 similar Huawei tablets in Shanghai: 1. BAH-W09 (Mediapad M3 lite 10) and CPN-W09 (MediaPad M3 lite (i believe)).

None of them has SIM card support, only WiFi. I still managed to obtain the unlock codes for both (hint: they DO have IMEI numbers. You can find them once You extract the SD card frame and take a close look at its back).

They both have EMUI 5.1 and Android 7.0. Basically, I am willing to use stock GLOBAL ROM for both in order to replace the existing Chinese one, unless You may have some other (hopefully better) suggestion.

However, I'm having a few issues in doing so:

1. I can't seem to find "Allow OEM unlocking" option in the "Developer options" section. I turn on the USB debugging (which stays on until I exit the menu or tablet goes into standby mode).

2. Could You please briefly help me to actually get to the fastboot mode. I've found so many procedures explaining it so that I don't even know which one I should follow. Any links to a procedure I may follow would be great! :) (tried following the ones from the beginning of the thread, but had no success)

3. Any official global ROM for BAH-W09 and CPN-W09 that You may reccommend or any unofficial for that matter?

Thank You all in advance! :)

Hello mate,

What's your experience with the display touch responsiveness ? I get some misses every now and again.I'm talkin about the 10 inch lite version (BAH-W09).I have the exact same version.Sometimes I have to tap multiple times on the Back, Home and Recents buttons when using them.
[General Questions and Answers] Zillgian:
Well, quite frankly, I have not encountered any problems while using the device, apart from its Chinese ROM. I find its display somewhat more precise & responsive when compared to its 2'' smaller brother "M3 Mediapad Lite". Particularly notable when using its virtual keyboard.

Oh man,I hope this a software issue and not the screen itself and will be addressed asap.I've emailed Huawei Support regarding this and I'm hoping I'll get a response from them.And overall it feels like Nougat hasn't been enough tested on this device.Random in-game crashes,black screen within YouTube when changing from 720p to 1080p, phone settings.Besides these small annoyances, I'm enjoying using this tablet and recommend it for media consumption and some not so heavy gaming.

hi there and thanks for the informations so far.

I'm also trying to root my m3 lite 10 and have some questions regarding sergybizzi post.

i have already unlocked the bootloader. easy.

regarding...

2. why do i have to install magisk?

and if i have to: how? to install magisk i need to install twrp first (see magisk homepage) but twrp does not yet support the m3 lite (see twrp / devices) or needs a rooted device??

4. how do you choose the correct download / boot image for your device from the 4pda post?

my device is BAH-L09C100B252CUSTC100D001 but there is no such download option. the closest for me would be be "L09C100B251CUSTC100D002" but are they compatible?

Also sergybizzi link to mega.nz image does not work for me, prompts me to enter a crypto key. idk

thanks
[General Questions and Answers] sergybizzi:
Hi my device il BAH-L09 with this rom version: BAH-L09C1008021.

Magisk is essential for the root access ! You can install Magisk from the tablet, simple install magisk.apk

True, TWRP not support the m3 lite, but for the root it is sufficient to use the phatched boot image and magisk.apk

I noticed that now there is a new update for my m3lite: BAH-L09C100B021D0001_B251D002, I do not know if with this update you lose the root, or just flash the old patched boot image.

I enter the link to download the tool again. You can find the working link in some posts above or in the original post to 4pda.

preferable use your boot.img and make a patch from magisk (look for ota updates using Firmware Finder for Huawei - after finding one use download button, dont touch anything else, after download is completed copy to pc, extract and move boot.img to devices)

Dont have that device, but there is no reason not to work, just use correct boot.img and patch it yourself in magisk

[General Questions and Answers] ChemoNL:
Which boot.img?
[General Questions and Answers] fuzio79:
for BAH-L09 you can use mine for previous post.

For others Firmware Finder from Team MT and download software that match your version, then extract and use HuaweiUpdateExtractor to extract original boot.img - use this in magisk and get patched_boot.img, then just apply from fastboot. to remove root apply original_boot.img.

If u post full info i can check Firmware Finder and give hints.
