I have EVA-L09 and installed with HWOTA B501 #128162. It includes 3D Panorama and Recycle bin and it is really named b501 in "About phone" - But changelog says: its for EVA-L19C432B396 and not approved for installation.

For EVA-L09 the b398 is the last approved Firmware (coming with OTA - I had it before on my Test-Phone) with Feb Sec patch. The 3D Panorama/Recycle bin is since b397 included for EVA-L09 .

I really dont know, why they call #128162 b501.

Everything is working on my EVA-L09 with "b501" - only Playstore is not certified (of course, because not approved) I did not Root.

b396 OTA-MF #128161 shows in changelog also EVA-L19C432B396 - did I understand you right - it was yesterday named as b501?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
I didn't make FF screenshot yesterday, neither few days ago.

But I'm sure that yesterday evening (otherwise I wouldn't write here) it was b386 OTA-MF version on top, as #128161 (and in Changelog saying L19 b386, just like FullOTA-MF #128162).

Now #128161 is (again?) on top as OTA-MF b501

---

Btw, with Playstore not certifoed, you can't install any app from Playstore or how?

If you install Open GApps, you still can't use Playstore?

It will be also interesting to know (you say you didn't root) if by editing build,prop (?) and putting an earlier ROM release date (before the date Google enforces new rule for uncertified ROMs), would it be possible to trick Playstore to become certified?!
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
Playstore doesn't make any problem. Neither at login nor during installation or updates. Huawei is a certified Device.

Playstore itself is only "not certified" cause the Firmware is not approved

And yes, if I change the ro.build.fingerprint in all local.prop and in build.prop and set it for L09 to b398 and for L19 to b395 - it would be certified.

That's what would I do anyway in next Rom Update for skipping safetynet issues. :)

#128161 is again on top with OTA b501. Yesterday night it was named as b396.

I guess it could be probably a downgrade Firmware between Oreo and Nougat. (b300 is for downgrade to MM)

Since Oreo should come in May :fingers-crossed:
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] edmun:
BTW, on my 398 I have found that IMEI is approved for installation of 399.

Changed DNS in Firmware finder, downloaded 2GB+ and installed 399.

Finally the crashing camera bug has been removed (since 398, as soon as I have unlocked my phone with fingerprint reader and took first photo with camera with short video functionality enabled, the camera app was crashing and photo was not saved).

On 399 the camera now behaves normally and does not crash anymore.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
If you have time and device with unapproved firmware, can you share some screenshots from that not-certified Playstore
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tsantakely:
I'm also on b398 but i don't have this problem. you have installed the b399 how number ???? I test the compatibility of all version and one only told me approved but with my l19c432b395, while i'm in l09c432b398. 3 others are not approved.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
Yes, on my test phone I have at the moment b501 EVA-L09 and not rooted. Playstore is not certified, because the firmware is not approved. I posted one screenshot already some posts ago, but in German language. Here you go for the English one.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] dkionline:
It get certified or is for me anytime.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
You tried b501 ?

I didn't root, and without Magisk it shows uncertified. (on my L09)

Edit:

New information from my side - the downgrade back to b399 is not really easy. But its maybe because I did several tests, dont know yet.

Seems, I must go back to MM to reset everything.... :)
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tsantakely:
Hi everyone, someone has received the b399 via firmware Finder ??? Need help please!!!!

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
Do you have L09 or L19, and by which method did you install b501.

Scroll back, read posts from last ten days about L09 b501 aka L19 b396 as per its ChangeLog, about showing b501 if installed by HWOTA to the same L09 and showing b396 if the same package installed to L09 by HuRUpdater, and how even the same package was changing names on FF, being b501, then one day b396 and finally b501/b396

Thanks

Hi, EVA-L19C636, last update comes one week ago official OTA B397 from 2018.03.07 #123343 with old patch google, March, I did not install it.

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] carlese:
Hi guys, I saw build B501 around, is it legit? I see a full zip and an update EU zip, should I flash both? Which one first?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
This can not work as you think!

Neither b501 nor b502 is approved for installing and if this doesn't matter to you - you have to use EVA nocheck recovery method with FullOTA-MF firmware version (this contains three zip files and not two)

It's not possible to flash with TWRP and not with dload method.

Only FullOTA-MF-PV versions can be flashed that way.

But there's no PV version for b501/b502.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] carlese:
I didn't realize that these were not approved and now I have semi bricked my phone as I wrote in the magic rainbow thread.. What build do you suggest flashing with hwota now? 501 or 399/398? Thanks a lot!

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Giovanni9921:
I had to force the update to the b398 via firmware finder.

I installed the b398 in February ... :(

Via OTA nothing is coming.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] alebalbina:
I think they're having problems pushing updates via OTA. Some people receive the updates with a wait-time of maximum 2 weeks, for the B399 I had to wait one month and a half...
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
If you had installed b398 with Firmware Finder you may don't receive OTA to b399 before you don't make a Factoryreset from settings /advanced settings /data Factoryreset with wipe of internal storage..
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Giovanni9921:
doing this I lose everything? If I do not, will I receive a next update?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
Yes, doing Factoryreset with wipe of internal storage will delete every personal stuff like Apps and data and stored files on internal storage.

You should anyway learn how to backup and restore with Huawei Backup (and for rooted user's TitaniumBackup).

You would not have same phone all the time and if you know how to backup /restore you can move all your stuff to another phone too..

I restored everything during several phones and Android versions over the years with a lot of Factoryresets between..

But it needs some experience, cause not everything can be restored (no system apps and no chat apps like WhatsApp - for these apps the integrated Backup function must be used)

I don't know if you receive OTA in your situation, but I also repair phones. And every time after Factoryreset with wipe of internal storage and inserted SIM I can update to the latest approved firmware.

EVA-L09 currently to b399..

And I know, if a phone is not modified with Root or unapproved Firmware, it receives automatically OTA, when it's ready to be distributed for your Serialnumber - because it can not be rolled out for all phones at the same time.

So maybe you must just wait, or you can use Nocheck Recovery method. (but this needs unlocked Bootloader)

And then backup is also necessary.

I never did update my phone with FF
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Giovanni9921:
Thx much, I have a bit of experience in android, I come from an acer liquid mini and a motog 2015 with lineage, so I have a bit of skill. The fact is that I do not want to lose important chats, although I know that through backup at the end you lose little and nothing but it is a hassle the same restore everything.

It means that I will wait, hoping well.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
Skype automatically restores, for WhatsApp is enough to copy its folder to SD card and to backup contacts and upon Factory Reset to copy its folder back to Ibternal memory...

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jan Philipp:
I got B504 via OTA last thursday. Security-Patch for July. One member of a german Android site said, he has received B503 and B504 within 1 week.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrea_1971:
I updated via OTA my P9 to B503 and to B504 immediately after the device restarted (I couldn't connect to a wifi for a couple of week that's why I couldn't update to B503 after it rolled out),

I'm explaining it because I've got some trouble with Twin Apps and I cannot determine if it is caused by the first or the latter update.

I used to clone apps with the Twin App feature sending adb command to my device as described here, and it worked perfectly. After the second restart (I didn't check after the first) I found out that all the links to the cloned apps had been deleted and the process via adb command doesn't work anymore.

I think that it depends to the security patches introduced by google, but I'd like to know if someone has more information and if a workaround exists .

Thanks
