I have searched and need some help. Mate 9 C567 already on Oreo. Trying to update to Jan 11 version. Everything seems fine but I get a fail at 17% update every time. It says failure to check files. I re-downloaded from FF and tried again and still 17% fail during update. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? The only confusion I have is when it says to create a directory on MTP SD card. I assume that means create a folder on external SDcard. Thanks in advance.

Someone who has the beta, can post some screenshots of the ui changes? I really need for an emui 8 theme for the 4-5 versions
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] vang2k:
hello there. I just finally figured out how to update my phone to 8.0.0.360 using this method. You need to unlock your bootloader and make a folder in your ex_SD card called HWOT8. put in there the 3 files from the FF than copy MHA_Recovery no check img and the hwota8_update.zip into the same folder HWOT8 so you'll have the 3 files from FF and 2 files from HWOT8. Make sure you run the replace recovery in fastboot mode first and you'll reboot the phone with volume UP to go into twrp. once in twrp swipe right to make mods and goto Install/Install from SD card folder HWOT8 and than install zip hwota8_update. It will reboot the phone and you should be able to install 100% update.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] rndchef:
Thank you. Followed to a tee and still fails at 17% every time. Totally frustrated!

make sure to rename the files accordingly

Rename > update_full_MHA-L29_hw_usa.zip→ update_all_hw.zip

Rename > update_data_full_public.zip → update_data_public.zip

update.zip (Don’t rename this)

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alora65:
Why I cant repack ?

Downgrade Nougat

A. Put update.zip, update_data_public.zip, and update_all_hw.zip files into HWOTA8 repack directory.

B. Run repack.bat to update zip files.

C. Go through "Flash Update" steps and use repacked zip files.

I run "repack.bat" from Windows 7 it says the 7zip.exe are not compactible, any suggestions ?

How the repacked zip files loock like? I have downloaded the Roolback firmware from Firmware Finder, must I repack them to ?

Just edit the Oreo script and put files in /data while you are booted. (if rooted)

Then flash the modified script in TWRP. You'd just have to flash recoverynocheck manually.

Edit - I should mention I manually flashed the twrp 3.0.3 recovery image. The script for ramdisk wouldn't work for me.

CANNOT Perform "replace_recovery"

If I manually flash 3.0.3.img I get a boot error (no image).. I can boot 3.1.1 TWRP tho and boot into that version by pressing Vol+ - Back to eRecovery and stock for now. this is a P.I.T.A!

Try installing "Minimal ADB and fastboot", either from:http://www.mediafire.com/file/ccnnv843a20tqbn/minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.3.zip

Or Google.

Installing this will let you run adb or fastboot from 'anywhere', so you don't have to cd to the folder containing fastboot. Install as system-wide

Yes, I have minimal and and fast boot and it works well. I've used it to unlock the phone. But the one in HOWTA8 doesn't work and I don't want to make any mistakes since I'm on Oreo.

I was with the model AL00 (Chinese) Oreo, and I used this tutorial to do the rebrand for L29 Oreo. I downloaded the firmware MHA-L29C432B363 (8.0.0.363), I made all the processes, when restarting the device came with model L29 but without any google application (gapps), and with FPR LOCK, now I can no longer install twrp via fastboot Because of the FPR LOCK, I need help, please.

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] #Henkate:
Hello!

I have a different Huawei phone (Huawei Nova), but i'd like to know more about this "nocheck recovery". Would you mind to answer the following questions?

1) What "check" you've removed, how and why? Is it "verify" from fstab?

2) Did you remove it from erecovery or recovery?

3) You can flash updates even when you're rooted and /system partition is modified?

4) Doesn't the bootloader becomes relocked after you install a new update?

I didn't know that's possible to flash Huawei's updates straight from TWRP. It's obviously a convenience since someone wouldn't have to backup the internal memory before relocking bootloader and such, basically wasting so much time. I'd like to test this on my Nova.

Thank you!

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] rufik:
I'm on Oreo .361 firmware right now (C432 model). I'd like to upgrade to .365 using HWOTA8 way, but I don't really know if it will result in factory reset at the end? Or it's safe to my data/apps and internal storage (encrypted)?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] 5[Strogino]:
Hmm. Factory reset happens when unlocking bootloader. Do you have locked bootloader? If yes, so no way to skip factory reset.

Simple upgrade via HwOta8 seems to be safe to internal storage: first step flashes TWRP, then via TWRP you will flash patched recovery and issue command to install. FullOTA roms do not clear data partition.

There are few chances when you will get locked state and unexpected bootloop in the middle of process. I recommend always do backups, when planning to experimenting with flash processes.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] superandroid2011:
One question.

I'm currently on Oreo 321 after manually flashing it through HWOTA.

Can I downgrade to Nougat B190 (downloaded from FF) and receive the official OTA Oreo upgrade?

anyone have any options here? Or did I seriously just brick this device?

P10 Plus not updating

Hey there, not sure if you guys can help me, but still... I've got a P10 Plus I've rebranded (from VKY-L09 to VKY-L29C636) and successfully updated to Oreo, but trouble is I now can't get it to update from B321 to B360. I've followed the original described process to a 't', even tried patching the files once but the update process always fails at some point, and I can't tell for sure which of the three files is causing this. Any ideas on what could I do?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wirmpolter:
Since some of us our hung up on the rebranding part and get to step E where fastboot shows Phone locked and FRP lock so can't unlock the bootloader, etc to continue on...Could I extract the update.app file inside each repacked file be used and put them one after the other in the dload folder on my sdcard, and flash them that way? Or will they just fail and not work?

You need to download the required hwota8 files linked in the very first post that begun this thread, that is what the part is about running the repack.bat (all done on the computer. As for the Flash Update, thats the process in the first post as well under Flash Update. You must be very careful when doing this process and follow everything to the T in order to not mess anything up.

Prepare and Notice

A.Warning! Flash phone might get it bricked. I am not responsible for it.

B.Phone is already Oreo firmware, only tested same brand update and downgrade.

C. Backup data, it might be restore factory default setting especially using downgrade ROM version.

D. Unlock bootloader before flash steps.

E. After update successfully, device might be locked again.

Dear OP,

I bought a Mate 9 for my dad from Iraq last year, the original model is MHA-L29.

Recently he is complaining about the extreme hot and battery drain, so I tried to flash a new rom for him.

Considering it would be easier for him to use Chinese ROM (we are Chinese), I find some instructions from the Huawei forum and re-branded it to Chinese variant and I found you are the OP for this thread (the one in Huawei forum is translated from yours):

https://xdaforums.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108

But I faced some problem when doing this:

1. There's no notifications about the unlock code for BL is required, I didn't backup that code so I had to stop and use the erecovery to restore the phone.

2. When I re-brand the phone, I downloaded the latest rom from the hwmt.ru, which I didn't notice and had no idea it would be Oreo and it's even not an official rom. TL00C00B311SP05-MHA (8.0.0.311SP05) MHA-AL00C00B311SP05 (8.0.0.311SP05) I was just concentrated on FullOTA-MF

After I flash this by the way from your rebrand link, the BL is unlocked, and when I enter the system it looks weird, and I found the build no. is system 8.0.0.046.

I tried your other thread to downgrade it to Nougat, but failed.

https://xdaforums.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-oreo-update-package-t3699522

I flashed the TWRP, repacked the zip files, but when i tried to flash, I could not find those files. all the folders and files are named disordered, you can see the screen shot, and erecovery would not help at all.

Could you please give me any advice to flash it to a normal stable version?

Many thanks.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fraham:
Now, I search the cab files or directly the program files, what are responsible to show "zuhause" (vodafone home area) as lettering or as icon.

So i will extract the german Vodafone files from different HTC devices (so .nbf or .nbh) and compare the cab archives (or the program files) whether these files to show "zuhause" for the devices are identical or not.

I think the "zuhause"-memo on the screen is generated by a pure software, what works regardless of the hardware, because it's only evaluated digital informations from the GSM signal and compared this informationes with the SIM card.

But not in every VPA- or VPA compact device typ the provider has this program integrated.

example: O2 use for Displaying the home-area also an info-channel, that i can manualy set. T-Mobile and Vodafone use a other way. Vodafone should use informations into the GSM signal.

thanks for informationes and help

[Samsung Gear S] Lestat86:
Hi guys,

sorry if i opened this thread and the question is already out there, but i couldn't find it on my own.

So i own a p9 Lite and a gear s, and i would like to use them together. I read in a thread that the gear manager app is now compatible with all the android devices, and that in order to pair the phone with a gear s you need to install the gear s plugin.

I did both of those things but i cannot find the gear s in the listed devices.

The funny thing is that i see it just fine in the bluetooth section of android...

So what i did is this: download gear manager, download gear s plugin, open the app and select "another device", since the gear S is not listed in the 4 categories.

Did i do something wrong? Is there some process (huawei services pops to mind) that is blocking the operation?

Thanks a lot!
