Would be great if you can add an option to auto notify users that a new firmware is available for their chosen device.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sniper20:
Actually it would be great if an app from funky huawei was available. With the notification function. I'm extremely happy with their services and an app would be fantastic.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] xxaarraa:
Duraaraa, I have been requesting a 151 update be added to the site since Tuesday. It took two emails and a post in this thread for you to acknowledge the request, its Friday and I still don't see the firmware. I understand its not going to be immediate as there are a lot of phones and lot of firmwares out there, however, it would be good to get a firm ETA so we don't have to keep checking your website every day - or build a notification feature like users have been requesting above.

Love the funky huawei service, but your process to keep fresh firmwares flowing needs improvement from a customer friendly service perspective. Do you have a general SLA on how long it takes to load a firmware when a user notifies you that a firmware is available for their device?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
Agreed. [MENTION=4572798]duraaraa[/MENTION]
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] xxaarraa:
Today is Saturday, and the firmware is still not available. Duraaraa is not responding to email either. Pretty poor service.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
I hope it is updated before my pass expires. Or is that the intended objective?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
8.1.0.151(C605) is available now.

Often times we can add new updates quickly, and other times we can't. It's case by case. Giving an ETA of any kind isn't possible unfortunately.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
Can it be flashed over c432, using the FHP20tool?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
I think FHP20Tool doesn't give you an option to rebrand to Latin America. If I remember wrong and it does, you can.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] weasley:
Duraaraa If I only use the boot loader code to rebrand . My boot loader code won’t change after rebrand right ? It only happens to single to dual sim conversion.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
Okay, thank you. In which case, please let us know when the 150 update for 432 devices becomes available.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SlyUK:
If and when custom rom development does come:

How will the cameras be affected or will rom developers deal with this effectively ?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rav101:
I'm guessing, in the first case, the quality would degrade and it would be down to developers to try and port over the stock camera. I'm not sure how difficult this will be.

Not sure if this topic is best discussed in this thread? We can pick it up in the questions and answers section or general discussion section?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SlyUK:
Its a good topic of discussion, best discussed elsewhere - agreed :)
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mushtafa:
Is this tool the only way to unlock and root phone?

Why does it cost to update things like the firmware? Surely these should be free updates from the manufacture like every other phone?

Take HTC for example, I paid for Sunshine S-OFF once, than everything else is free & easy to do.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
These tools are not for rooting the phone. We never charge for rooting, but I'm sure some other root method will come out.

Huawei is really slow at pushing out updates, and can be very region-specific with the updates they push out, so some users pay for the service and use it for updates. But average users just wait for Huawei to push out updates.

Others want to change the regional branding of the phone, how many sims it supports, etc.

Others want to unbrick it.

And so on.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
We have released a preliminary tool to rebrand the P20 series (P20, P20 Pro, Mate RS) with an unlocked bootloader!

Please see the link on the rebranding page on the FunkyHuawei site, or check the FunkyHuawei reddit for details.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mushtafa:
OK, I see. Thanks for clearing that up.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] wildlime:

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Paz9:
anyone know the difference between the CLT-L29 and CLT-L29C variants? [MENTION=4572798]duraaraa[/MENTION] any ideas?

[MENTION=5754082]wildlime[/MENTION] where did you purchase from?

Trying to get one sent to Australia ?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Clandaries:
When i unlock the bootloader, is it possible to go back to stock 100% so if i have a problem and must send it to care center?

Regards
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
With our service you can go back to stock as long as eRecovery is working.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] doromax:
HI, I read some post ago for convert single-sim to dual-sim.

I buyed my P20 pro today and sadly I discovered that my phone has a single-sim.

Reading in forum I saw that Huawei make two model.

My is CLT-L09 . So it is a single sim.

But I need two sim.

Is it possible also for this model to change firmware and go with two sim ?

I need to change also sim-tray ? My sim-try has only one slot!

thanks
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
Yes, it's possible to rebrand to dual-sim version. You will need a new sim tray, we don't know where is selling them yet. Email us for more details..
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
We have released a special tool for those who need to convert single-sim to dual-sim. Please check our FunkyHuawei reddit or our funkyhuawei twitter for details.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Paz9:
Fingers crossed twrp is possible soon
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
There was an issue with BLA-L29 8.0.0.107a(C432) installation authentication for a short while today. It has been fixed so if you had trouble installing it please try again.

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] xxaarraa:
Can you tell us why that is the case? Also, did you see our suggestion for adding a notification feature? So we don't have to keep emailing you or wondering where in the queue the request was.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
We don't have a request queue. Added firmwares are announced on twitter, and generally in this thread as well.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
An update:

As everyone knows, Huawei is no longer giving out bootloader unlock codes.

Rebranding is still not possible without an unlocked bootloader.

If you already have the code, great. If not, here is the current situation.

eRecovery method works to install updates or downgrade. It will continue to work for the foreseeable future.

Be careful with downgrading, as it's possible Huawei is in the midst of introducing downgrade protection, bricking devices on attempted downgrades.

Currently there are no other tools/methods, FunkyHuawei or otherwise, which let you modify or install firmwares on the P20 or P20 Pro with locked bootloader, other than OTA from Huawei directly or FunkyHuawei eRecovery method.

In the future it is highly likely we will be able to support more functions.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Federicadr:
Hi guys i hope i didn't screwed my phone...anyway I was following the debranding guide with the funkyhuawei tool and I am currently stuck on this screen. It doesn't boot, it doesn't turn off and I basically don't know what to do and I am pretty scared. Help me please

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
In that case it's best to email support.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Federicadr:
Already done it..has anybody ever experienced this? I mean I did it this way cause I was thinking it was easier.

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Federicadr:
Update: I've tried to use the 3 buttons reboot, I get to a black screen with just emui written on it and then software install failed with the only option to reboot the system. I did it and it seemed to boot fine but the rebooted itself in the previous rebranding screen. The laptop doesn't recognize it, not even HiSuite even though I enabled USB debugging. I'm stuck and in 2 weeks I'm going on holidays..how can a rebranding procedure screw a phone like that? LG was the best and easiest with modding...

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
You need to get to eRecovery.

Hold volume up while rebooting the phone with usb cable connected to your computer.

Then set the DNS as per the instructions and install the firmware over eRecovery.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
We have a new update coming for the European P20 Pro. Available shortly.

CLT-L29 8.1.0.152(C432)
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Federicadr:
I didn't notice that plugging it and rebooting it both erecovery and fastboot mode were still available. I managed to complete the procedure and successfully rebranded to c432 build 131! Finally..I almost had an heart attack. Thanks for your support anyway

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
Go into settings and type OEM unlock in the search bar
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Federicadr:
Is it that easy? I just have to turn it off?

Inviato dal mio CLT-L29 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
I believe so yes.

You turn it on and then in recovery, it asks for the code to unlock it. No code required to lock it again, I believe. [MENTION=4572798]duraaraa[/MENTION] can clarify.

Please drop a message here when it's available to flash.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Federicadr:
Nope. I just put it off in developer options, rebooted the phone but I still get the warning message at the beginning and Gpay is still not working because of rooting or other alterations, and since I've just unlocked the bootloader I think that's the problem. I'm not interested in rooting, I just wanted the phone to be up to date without any UK carrier restrictions. Next phone I'll buy it from outside UK, for sure!

Changelog??
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
.152 is available now for c432 on funky Huawei! Let's go!
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sniper20:
152 is newer than 131 I suppose, but what is changed??
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
I believe the main change is GPU boost. Better GPU graphical performance in games and in general U, I guess.

Updates to the July security patch from Google, too.

Someone mentioned camera improvements too. Not sure what exactly.

I have successfully updated to 152!
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] David Horn:
Just as a heads up, v152/432 fails SafetyNet.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
What is that? How can I confirm this and why would it happen?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matt4321:
This happens when you install the Huawei firmwares in advance of when they are officially released. I remember seeing a post round here somewhere about it, takes time for it to pass since it doesn't like the fingerprint ID or something along those lines. When Huawei officially release it then it starts to pass. I think there is a Magisk module to spoof the fingerprint and if you use one that passes SafetyNet then you're good.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sniper20:
We don't install them in advance. It's the official firmware released for c432 by huawei. We only don't wait for it to be ota in our country. When a firmware is officially launched that's it.... Its ready to be installed.

Ps: for funky huawei staff, please include changelog in erecovery installation. At the moment, change log is empty after typical funky huawei installation.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matt4321:
Well yes it's still the official firmware but it's failing for the reason I stated. It only occurs with people installing it before the OTA comes
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] scook94:
Indeed, this is normal for a new F/W usually after 5 days or so it will pass SafetyNet test.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
CLT-L29 8.1.0.152(C605) for Latin American P20 Pro is available now.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
Can you explain what safety net is and how we can check it is failed on our devices?

How to avoid it?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
If I'm not mistaken, google maintains a database of safetynet-approved device signatures.

It takes a while for google to add Huawei's new builds to their database.

To avoid it, just upgrade after someone says SafetyNet it working. Without someone trying it, there's no way to know.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
I see. Thanks for this information. I had already installed the latest firmware before you messaged. So will try and remember this next update.

How does it negatively impact our device, in a real world use case scenario? Google Pay contactless payments? That kind of thing? It is it more serious, like vulnerable to external remote probing or other exploits, until safety net is passed?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] BeDesireS:
Many apps use safety net to check, if the device is rooted, modded or not save for the use of sensitive data. If the check fails android pay, maybe some banking apps, etc. won't work anymore. That's all.

Hi guys, I rebranded from c782 to c432 and I'm currently on 131, bootloader still unlocked. My question is: can I relock the bootloader and then continue to upadate through funkyhuawei since I've got the full pass or shall I leave it unlocked in order to update? How do I relock the bootloader?

I would really like to have Gpay back..

You can relock the bootloader and still use funkyhuawei to flash updates through erocovery. But once locked, it cannot be unlocked again.

I think you just go into the phone settings, and search at the top for 'oem unlock' or similar in your language. Then uncheck/turn it off.
