Have been running Magisk, it's really great! I notice that with the SuperSu version, I have two apps that do not work. I thought they were just compatibility issues. With this Magisk version, both work very well. It turns out that the Magisk grants root to these two apps in a much better way. I think I'll stick with version.

Frankly, I never tried before (in MR or stock) but now I see that when I click to play any music from its server in the Music app, I get

>> Cannot retrieve data, try again later

Does it work for you or is it maybe enabled only for Chinese users?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
I haven't seen this option in Stock Music app, where did you find it - or is it shown maybe only in other regions?

But for sure, "Online Music" is only available on different cust (like China, but also on some others)

I have seen that option in xml files disabled for c432. I haven't tried to change value for testing
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] zgfg:
I actually don't remember was there download/play option in the stock Music.

I started to play with when I installed yesterday the updated (and unlocked?) version of Music

Once you install, you must enable your Huawei ID (for that, Huawei Mobile Services must not be frozen). It will warn that phone is rooted, just click Continue - I got no problem, SafetyNet is still green, etc

Maybe downloading music works only for Huawei IDs from China and/or users connecting with Chinese IP addresses...
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Is this updated version with chinese Letters (I had seen in older versions of Android such updates, but don't liked them cause of the chin. Letters)

or ist it similar with the version which is included in the Rom?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] zgfg:
Settings and so are in English, however lot of media are Chinese songs, see attachments
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Yes that's exactly the same version I have seen. But I don't like it.

If everything would be in multi language, then it would be okay for me.

And I could enable download in different xml files.

Could you send instructions how to enable Download - thanks

I feel like this is going to be a noob question: does the banking apps include mobile paid apps? I seem to remember that I had issues with Android Pay when using the SuperSu version, but perhaps that has nothing to do with the SuperSu? Thanks
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] RandomQuezoPH:
Can I know when the next big update will be and what version is it? I'm currently deciding on whether I should flash this rom now because I am feeling something that you will update it fast and I need to update and flash again. I don't need exact dates or anything. And do you recommend flashing this version now? Thank you for your time :D
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] zgfg:
[MENTION=6870018]Tecalote[/MENTION] will answer you more precisely

From user's perspective:

- MR v4 is based on b398 (for L09 c432), after that there were only security patches in b399 and b501, hence don't exprct MR update now (maybe when Oreoe comes, if really coming soon)

- For Magisk and so, you just update in live, when Magisk or modules come

- Scroll back and you will find happy users :)
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Soon I get free time for some days I make this patch and the safetynet patch for L19 ( [MENTION=5305733]tonyaross[/MENTION] is waiting for)

Yes, and how you already told - I am not sure yet which Rom Update I doing next.

I wait for News about Oreo, last Information is: it should come during August..
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Wait for the new L19 patch, then Android Pay should work.

I just have a very turbulent time at the moment and that's why it's undone on my to do list...
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tonyaross:
That sounds great! sorry to hear about the "turbulence." :( I hope it's nothing too bad.

The patch (B398) should also work on B396, right? That's what I have now because my OTA only gives me B396. Thank you!
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
You mean before flashing MRv4 you was on b396 (OTA was shown), right? But right now you are on this Rom..

Yes, the patch will work.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tonyaross:
Yes, that's right. I first updated to B394 through HWOAT and then to B396 through OTA afterwards. Then I flashed MR v.4. Very happy to hear that the patch will work. Looking forward !!

Can anyone teach me how to unlock my bootloader again? I just locked it last month and I unlocked my device with huawei's website but now I don't think its available, the one that you need to put your EMEI in it, it's gone. Thank you.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] zgfg:
Bootloader code is always the same for your particular device. When you obtained the code first time, you should keep ot for any future ulocking or relocking
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] RandomQuezoPH:
Can you teach me how to get it? Because the site that I use to get the code is gone. https://www.emui.com/plugin.php?id=unlock it says 404 not found. And I lost my old code. Ive done it 2 times to get a code but now, I cant.

Hey!

Nice ROM, works great but after week of usage perfomance became a bit slower and battery a bit worse. At first 2 days I got unexpected 5-6hours of SoT and after that it became only 4h of SoT. No new apps, just at first day I restored all my mostly used apps and thats it.

So maybe can you show me what steps I should do to keep my P9 as fast and power efficient as first day? (After stock rom it felt blazing fast :D ) I didint patched KangV settings yet because didint find step by step tutorial and Im afraid to mess it up without knowledge.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Thanks for your feedback :)

1) Open settings /Google and disable "Instant Apps"

2) Settings /Akku (Battery) Close Apps after Screen lock - WhatsApp and Co must stay enabled after Screen lock, also Magisk Manager (or SuperSU depending to your installed v) and Apps you use often - but all other Apps disable after Screen lock

3) Settings /Advanced settings /location service - if you don't navigate with Maps or something what needs exactly location service, change setting to: WLan and mobile network

4) If you don't use at the moment NFC or Bluetooth - disable it and enable it when needed.

5) If you use a cloud service for synchronize something - look if you can set it to battery safe mode

[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] agile2011:
I had installed SU Edition, but this edition install SUPER SU lite.

When to do run Super Su and verify the app register show me that to need Super Su PRO!!!
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
It is logical that the Rom install SuperSU Free Edition and not Pro Edition. Pro Edition you have to buy.

If you had already bought you can just install the Pro apk with Playstore over the existing SuperSU Free.

The phone is rooted. If you open a Root Explorer and navigate to the root path /

SuperSU will ask you for Root Permission.

You don't need Root Checker to see if Root is working.

If it's not rooted, then you did something important wrong.

[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
With KangV Advanced Settings you can set up : gaming mode.

KernelAudiutor Mod seems not really work, except init.d simulation in Magisk Edition.

But CPU settings will not be accepted..

At least not with the integrated version.

Yeah i know kangv setting has game mod but when i turn on that my phone burning so hot

and i want to overclcok on my personaly setting

why there is not costum kernel for our phone?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] zgfg:
It doesn't help - I forced manual hosts file update three times in a row and everytime it got new timestamp to the hosts file but obviously it did not really update (and change) the hosts file three times.

As long as it is green and showing "Newest hosts file enabled", you can force manual update, it will update the timestamp but it won't really update the hosts content.

Btw, see my last screenshot, hosts sources, do you have different dates threre?

[MENTION=7786725]zgfg[/MENTION] Can you please ask in the main Thread of AdAway what's happened with the updates?

I would also like to know.

[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Yes you are right. There's no really useful custom kernel for this device until now.

And if, it should be compatible with Magisk.

I will think about.

Hi guys,

i tried using HWOTA to flash B501 found here:

There are two files:

Update.zip

update_full_EVA-L19_hw_eu.zip

I renamed the second one and put everything in the HWOTA folder, then copied to my SD card and tried to flash but the installation failed (also tried with dload method and TWRP method, same results). I tried to wipe c ache, data, factory reset but nothing, and now I cannot even access to my TWRP.. What should I do? Am I bricked now? Thanks a lot..
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] zgfg:
You had to use Firmware Finder, takeing FullOTA-MF package (see screenshots), with three ZIPs (not just two), chosing L09 or L19 depending on which phone you have and renaming it according to instructions

[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] zgfg:
Can you boot to Fastboot to install TWRP again?

Switch off, connect by USB to PC, press and keep pressing Vol- and Pow.

Maybe you should first install/recover by HWOTA the same stock build you originally had (carefully read instructions and download from Firmware Finder - there is a PC version, too, not from suspicious sites where they offer incomplete packages with only two ZIPs, probably OTA-MF, not FulkOTA-MF)
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] carlese:

Flashing not approved Firmwares dont brick your device. But if you do something wrong or using the wrong firmware.

First of all - is your device L19 ? Which cust do you have (c432, c185, c636....) I am asking this, because the firmware must match your device.

As long you can enter Fastboot Mode it should be possible to restore your phone. We have different possibilites to do that.

So just answer my question and I will tell you how to do it.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] carlese:
L09 C432.. I was on latest moonlight, then latest magic rainbow but I want to go back to stock, I don't know what is not working on 501/502,so if everything works for a daily driver I might flash this, otherwise I'll flash a previous build..

Edit: I managed to flash TWRP so the phone is not completely bricked.. waiting for your advice on 502 (i already downloaded the full firmware this time, 3 files and copied to HWOTA folder) especially on the "nocheck recovery" part, I read this post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76228535&postcount=97 so I think your procedure is enough for flashing it?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
yes, this is my post here on this Thread - if you go back to site 1 and post #3 (zgfg told you already yesterday....)

You can flash b502 with this method - you need FullOTA-MF version and from this 3 zip files:

update.zip

update_data_full_public.zip

update_full_EVA-L09_hw_eu.zip - renamed to: update_full_hw.zip

And do it as described here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75787156&postcount=3

I don't have an external SD so I put it on Internal and tried to flash the script, it rebooted but got me back in TWRP and it seems that the TWRP folder has been deleted since it's asking me to swipe to allow modifications.. Do I need the external SD to make it work?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Yes you need external SD for to work.

I wrote it in the Guide - please learn to read carefully next time before you do something!!

But I can make the script also for internal storage if you wait. I am not at home right now.

I am back in three hours and can upload then
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] carlese:
Believe me, I'm not a noob but I'm used to other devices (nexus/oneplus) and huawei are a nightmare to me ;) Usually the dload method works both from internal and external memory, so I thought this might work the same way.. By the way I can modify the script myself, I think what I need to do is change the references in HWOTAUpdateSCRIPT.zip\META-INF\com\google\android\update-binary from external_sd to sdcard, right? I took a look at it and only this line has external_sd:

dd if=/external_sd/HWOTA/L09_Recovery.img

All the other references are for sdcard..

Thanks for your patience!
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Yes, in principial you are right. But it is not sure, if only change external_sd to sdcard will work - cause normally Firmware cannot be flashed from internal storage. You can try and tell me the result.

I make an extended script for internal storage to get the Update working.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] carlese:
Tried, this time system update started but failed as usual.. I am sure that all 3 packages are inside, so maybe the modified update script isn't enough or something else is not working..
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Yes, that's what I suspected.

So please wait for my script and this will work for sure

[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
HWOTA Update script (only L09c432) for using from internal storage

Okay, please check first:

you need the firmware zips version #133872 - the right links are here:

update.zip http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1864/g1755/v133872/f1/full/update.zip

update_data_public.zip http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1864/g1755/v133872/f1/full/public/update_data_full_public.zip

update_EVA-L09_hw_eu.zip http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1864/g1755/v133872/f1/full/EVA-L09_hw_eu/update_full_EVA-L09_hw_eu.zip

Dont forget rename update_data_full_public.zip to: update_data_public.zip

and update_full_EVA-L09_hw_eu.zip to: update_all_hw.zip

Delete everything inside the HWOTA folder in the main directory of your internal storage. Copy inside the:

L09_Recovery.img

the 3 (new downloaded) firmware zip files and

HWOTAUpdateINTERN.zip (attached in this post below)

Use this TWRP: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673791459329067086

Boot to TWRP and flash only HWOTAUpdateINTERN.zip

This should work. The difference is - this script creates the folder /data/update/HWOTA/ - and move your files from storage/emulated/0/HWOTA to the new created folder and start the processing from there. Be patient, because first TWRP must copy the files (automatically) to the new place and this needs a while, after Phone reboots, flash the Nocheck Recovery and Update should start. If it is stuck on 57% just wait, it will finished with 100%

It is already tested on a non bricked P9 /L09c432.

There is a minimal risk that it may not work - but this can only be, because you flashed before a wrong Firmware (for L19 and only two zips). If it does not work, tell me. Then we find another solution.

Wish you success :)
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] carlese:
The links provided are very very small (download from firefox) but I checked now with firmware finder and #133871 is OTA-MF while #133872 is full.. Will it work the same? They are like 1,4 and 4,5mb size..
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
No, sorry, you are right - I made a mistake (because too much things in my brain :) ) - sure, you need #13872 FullOTA-MF (it cannot work with OTA).

I don't have the external sd card, but i checked on internal memory and files are still there..

Edit: even with B399 still not working, same error..
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Yes, I meant sdcard (internal) - okay if this doesn't work and you made nothing wrong - it is because your brick.

You have renamed the last zip, right?

Can you take a Screenshot from HWOTA folder? ( Advanced /Filemanager /sdcard /HWOTA short click on Vol- and Power in TWRP)

Hi [MENTION=6870018]Tecalote[/MENTION],

I wonder if using Magisk selinux permissive script could harm my phone?

In the last two weeks, when I use Titanium Backup to restore any application everything passes fine, but after that when I use any application which uses root the phone freezes. Status and navigation bars disappear and all I can do is to reset the phone by the button.

After the reboot all of my paired Bluetooth devices disappear and I have to pair them again.

Magisk selinux permissive script was my first to blame. I uninstalled it but the problem stays.

I am on stock P9 L09C432B395.

Thank you.
