Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much does FunkyHuawei cost?

A: You need to buy credits on the FunkyHuawei website. The price per credit varies depending on the number of credits you buy. Different operations cost different amounts of credits. However, the Root feature of the Mate 10 tool is free, and as mentioned above, Recognized Developers/Contributors of XDA can ask for a free credit.

Q: My phone is bootloader locked, and FRP locked. My bootloader unlock code dosen't work. It won't boot. eRecovery doesn't work. Can you help?

A: Yes. With the Mate 10 this is now a common situation. Contact FunkyHuawei for help in this situation. We'll need to access your computer remotely and the procedure is a little bit complicated, but the phone can be unbricked.

Q: I can't get my bootloader unlock code/don't want to unlock my bootloader, but I want to change my phone to something other than Chinese. Can you help?

A: Yes. Our new FunkyHuawei Rebrand Tool works on ALL recent Huawei phones, to rebrand them to another region even when the bootloader is locked.

Q: I'm not seeing the latest version listed on FunkyHuawei or elsewhere as an OTA. Why not?

A: Huawei has a very odd and unpredictable way of rolling out OTA updates. You can use FunkyHuawei to install the new version immediately, or can wait for the update to be rolled out. It might be a month or more after release until the update reaches your device from Huawei directly. We have no idea why.

Q: Why isn't FunkyHuawei free?

A: Because many of FunkyHuawei's features cost FunkyHuawei money to provide. Features that don't cost FunkyHuawei money to provide, like rooting the Mate 10 or our TWRP build for Mate 9/Oreo, for example, are generally made available for free. There are also bills to pay, kids to put through school, and so on.

Q: I noticed FunkyHuawei in an XDA Portal article!

A: FunkyHuawei loves XDA, and is cooperating with them as much as possible. Recognized Developers and Contributors on the XDA forums are welcome to claim a free credit from FunkyHuawei as well.

Q: I have a different question.

A: This is what this thread is for! Post away!

Luckilly the P10 community here is mature enough that there is no longer a need for Funky's services. However effective Funky may be, we can save ourselves the 30bucks and do it ourselves :)

We are pleased to announce FHUnbrickFlashTool -- You can now repair any recent Huawei phone via fastboot, even if you cannot access eRecovery or boot the phone! Even if it doesn't show the Huawei logo, as long as you can get a fastboot connection to your computer, you can recover the phone! Google FHUnbrickFlashTool or check FunkyHuawei's reddit for details.

We have added a brand new Android O build for the Chinese P10.

You will need to rebrand your phone to VTR-AL00 (all/cn) to install it.

Best to use HiSuite to install it -- check out Mate 10 rebranding information to find the correct version of HiSuite and instructions.

Hey all, I'm having a problems to which i've been pulling my hair out and not sure what to do. Essentially, I had my phone rooted, although later decided I wanted to unroot. To unroot I used an app called "simply unroot" however it did not fully unroot my device, just made it worse, my phone does not pass the safety net, however "root checker apps" suggest my phone is not rooted, although some apps recognise my phone as being rooted. My phone bootloader is unlocked, but the OEM toggle in the developer options is not set as enabled, and is NOW greyed out so i cant click it, meaning i do not have access to any fastboot commands and thus cannot flash a recovery.img. Although, believe after having trying to unroot it had automatically disable OEM. I have tried to lock the bootloader in the hopes that OEM toggle would no longer be greyed out, but cannot do this as i dont have access to fastboot commands. Even with TWRP i cannot flash anything just promps me with Error 9. I have tried storing the UPDATE.app within the dload folder, but that doesnt work either. I have no idea how i can recover this device. Fell like i've tried everything. Please help.
[Huawei P10 Guides, News, & Discussion] AlkyXDA:
Why you pose this question in the "official funkyhuawei support" thread is beyond me....

Only thing that comes to mind is: do you have USB debugging enabled in the developers options? It should be enabled if you want to use ADB or Fastboot.
[Huawei P10 Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
You can use FunkyHuawei eRecovery method to return it to stock.

I recently updated my P10 VTR L29 C432 from nougat to Oreo B360 via oreoupgrade script method as posted in forum but after update my bootloader seems to be locked again i wanted to root my phone via installing TWRP but it's not allowed by fastboot

Any solution or any solution to unlock bootloader or root the phone without losing data !? I have too much files and apps on phone that i won't lose :confused:
[Xposed Framework Development] Krowne:
I'm trying to get the TextView of the following method, but everything I have tried returns a null value.

This is the code:

public final void a(boolean z) {
if (z) {
if (this.W == null) {
this.W = new TextView(getContext());
this.W.setBackgroundResource(android.support.design.widget.b.AnonymousClass7.ay);
this.W.setGravity(17);
LayoutParams marginLayoutParams = new MarginLayoutParams(-2, -2);
marginLayoutParams.bottomMargin = getContext().getResources().getDimensionPixelSize(android.support.design.widget.b.AnonymousClass5.ap);
addView(this.W, marginLayoutParams);
this.h = this.W;
}
this.W.setText(k.e(getContext(), this.a.k).toUpperCase());
this.W.setTextSize(a(getResources()));
this.W.setVisibility(0);
this.t = true;
return;
}
if (this.W != null) {
this.W.setVisibility(8);
}
this.t = false;
}

This is one of the ways in which I have tried to obtain value.

findAndHookMethod(class, "a", boolean.class, new XC_MethodHook() {
@Override
protected void afterHookedMethod(XC_MethodHook.MethodHookParam params) throws Throwable {
super.afterHookedMethod(params);
TextView textView = (TextView) params.thisObject;
if (textView!=null) {
textView.setTextColor(color);
}
}
});

I have also tried the following:

TextView textView = (TextView) XposedHelpers.getObjectField(p.thisObject, "W");

and

TextView textView = (TextView] params.args[0];

But nothing is working.

Is it possible to get the TextView? and if it's possible, how to do it?

Problem solved, I had to assign the private variable field as setAccessible(true).

This is the official FunkyHuawei support thread.

FunkyHuawei is a (mostly) paid service which allows you to do the following:

1. Install the latest system software, even before it's released by OTA.

2. Install beta/prerelease system software, without needing to be a beta tester.

3. Recover a bricked phone.

4. Rebranding / Change the region of your phone (China -> Europe, for example, to get Google and so on.)

5. Root your EMUI 8 phone, even with stock recovery (This feature is free)

Except for rooting, all of these features are supported even if you cannot unlock your phone's bootloader.

We are pleased to announce FHUnbrickFlashTool -- You can now repair any recent Huawei phone via fastboot, even if you cannot access eRecovery or boot the phone! Even if it doesn't show the Huawei logo, as long as you can get a fastboot connection to your computer, you can recover the phone! Google FHUnbrickFlashTool or check FunkyHuawei's reddit for details.

To find FunkyHuawei, please Google it. Or you can find a link to the service within the following XDA Portal article.

https://www.xda-developers.com/android-oreo-emui-6-huawei-mate-9/

In cooperation with XDA, FunkyHuawei is offering a free credit to Recognized Developers and Recognized Contributers on XDA.

Please PM me for more details.

We will continue posting in this thread with updates regarding new software versions and releases regarding this device.

We will also be monitoring it so we can help anyone who has issues.

For device-specific information, please see the next post.

P10 Plus Device-Specific Information

The P10 Plus now has a relatively mature community with many methods to do many things.

However, there are still some things only possible with FunkyHuawei, so it would be most useful for:

1. Installing updates on bootloader-locked devices, even if the update is not approved by Huawei for your device.

2. Rebranding bootloader-locked devices, or rebranding to obscure carrier brandings.

3. Restoring bricked devices.

Note that even though the Mate 10 Root tool is designed for the Mate 10, it works perfectly on the P10 Plus running Android O betas.

This tool is FREE, and might be easier than installing TWRP and rooting that way.

P10 plus stuck on fastboot. Black screen, no led.

Follow the rebranding manual result in brand new p10+ hard bricked.

Now the pone is completly dead black screen, no led when plugs the usb, no vibration. I had lost all hope until after it stayed connected for a long time to the pc I realized that windows was detecting somthing.

adb doesn't detect the device but fastboot detecs it.

I have tried to reboot in bootloader or flashing recovery without success. The commads apparently work and end with ok but after a reset the phone only load in fastboot mode without any other life signals. Bootloader is unlocked.

is there any solution to fix this?
[Huawei P10 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
Based on the email we received from you, it looks like you didn't use our service to rebrand.

Still, we can help you unbrick it if you have this situation, as long as you can access fastboot.

will i be able receive and install ota updates if i root my device and have twrp installed
[Huawei P10 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] ajituchiha:
I backed up my device using TWRP, I excluded the data partition since it is not working in TWRP. After I restored my device my bootanimation changed from Huawei animation to an "android" logo and when the device booted, I tried to open settings and the app instantly closes and same with the camera app. The camera app shows the name com.huawei.camera instead of saying "Camera" and all other apps started crashing. So, I wiped everything except my internal storage and restored my backup and now when I boot the device everything is black and I can only see the navigation keys and when I hold my power button I can see the restart and power off option. After like 2-3 minutes I get this message "You have run out of storage space" and when I press ok it takes me to a screen which shows 64/64 GB used. I have 0 space left on device
[Huawei P10 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
You can probably recover by using FHUnbrickFlashTool. If you contact FunkyHuawei support we can ask you for some more information to confirm exactly what the problem is.
[Huawei P10 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] roosta:
Good work. I'll be more impressed when we finally work out a systemless root, i've lost count of the many OTA updates from Huawei - meaning their OS must be full of bugs and glitches for commonly used apps and typical use. Will we ever get there?

Is there any way to make apps like: YouTube, WatchESPN, NBC Sports, Dish Anywhere, etc. display full screen video around the camera instead of being cut of. Due to the cut off up top YouTube video's are also cut off at the bottom of the screen slightly.

Youtube Apk

There is a YouTube modded apk that allows the pinch to zoom feature to work for irregular aspect ratios. Im not 100% sure if this will work on the Essential Phone however it works perfectly fine on the LG G6, it should just crop out some of the video so it can go full screen. Just download the MS Config file and the YouTube apk, dark theme is optional. Unfortunately I cannot post any links as I am a new user, but you can find a link on the LG G6 full screen YouTube thread.

Amazon Prime full screen display for 21:9 movies

Saw "Arrival" with Amazon Prime app which utilizes the whole screen including the camera notch bar. Wow! what a sight. Hope Netflix, Hulu and some other video player app can do the same soon.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] FallN:
I'm really upset at the lack of immersive experience. Not a single video app takes advantage of this beautiful screen-- excepting Amazon which is hit or miss with full screen. It seems to differ from video to video...

Anyone know a tweak or a hack to get some immersive support?

It super annoying especially when watching videos in Chrome and the nav bar is white and still shows the status bar. If Lineage really does get rid of it, then I might need to rom
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tonyo137:
Viewing in fullscreen is possible with the aforementioned app. The pinch to zoom doesn't work due to the notch fill in not being enabled. To use fullscreen download the app, enable developer options, and once you've enabled developer options go to essential notch settings, set per application, and choose the app. Then click always use notch area. Pinch to zoom will now allow video to fill the screen, and the YouTube app will make use of the new formatting.

Is there anyway to reduce the threaded SMS font size of a conversation in WM6.1? I searched and found some other posts, but not a definite answer and they were for WM5&6. The text size by default is huge!

Thanks in advance.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] j4s0ni2ice:
Bump...

... can't seem to find the answer to this. I see people talking about editing file with Total Comander and that's fine... but my text was small and all of the sudden it was huge. My wife won't admit it... but I think she was messing with my phone. Thanks guys.

I have been trying to get my text size increased in the reading pane of the threaded sms... so if you find out what your wife did let me know!!

is the threaded sms capability limited to the cooked rooms only at this point ?

i just got a tilt and from all the searching i did, thats the feeling i get.

shipped rom 1.62.502.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] j4s0ni2ice:
It's only...

... on 6.1 ROM's. Just flash one of em and you'll have it. Still can't find out why the font got larger... but only in the threaded SMS/MMS... not in IE.

I have original ROM and threaded messages.

u need to change the font size via outlook or any email acct.. thats the only way i can across it.. open a email change view to smaller or smallest text and it changes txt msg size too

I can confirm that this works. Came across this way by accident a couple weeks ago! Looks way better now!

Settings>system>screen there should be another tab for Text Size. Adjust this to your liking and it will also be the setting for emails and sms.

but that also changes other text size which maybe be undeseriable
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KhaledAbdo:
Hi all ..

I was thinking that the only difference between the 2 devices is the partitions setup .. so, if there were a script to adjust the partitions before flashing the other ROM it should work .. :confused:

Or even a script to make the device has both needed list of partitions available ( with the loss of a few extra space ) :confused::confused:

Steps for Mi A1 should be :

Unlock bootloader

Flash custom recovery

Run Repartitioning from A1 to 5X

Push 5X recovery and Bootloader

Flash 5x Official ROM

Done.

Note: I have done something similar to HTC Desire about 4 years ago and it worked fine

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jack_21:
Why not install Mi5x ROM on one of the two available partition instead?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KhaledAbdo:
This won't work.

Mi 5X official ROM is expecting a certain partition structure that is set for Mi 5X but not for Mi A1. For example, it is expected a "/system" and a "/recovery" partition .. but instead in Mi A1, you have 2 system partitions "/system_a" and "/system_b" .. so you can't just flash it directly .. some modification has to be done ..

First option is customizing: You get the official ROM, and adjust it to work on the A/B structure .. and vice versa, get the stock Mi A1 official ROM and edit it to work on old normal partition structure (which is already done, and is ready for 5X as we speak).

Second option, is the one am asking about above .. if we could repartition the devices itself, and use the Ready software from Xiaomi and Google without customizing ..

Yet am not sure if that is possible and doable or not, hence am asking .. :)

anyways, am hoping it is .. and waiting for a skilled developer to purchase the device and give it a try ..

or for Xiaomi and Google to provide a good solution .. :D :D

Peace
