HuRU. They are the thread just next door: HuRUpdater. Now just take note that once you flash .141 FW, there is no turning back. And this is the firmware repository; just take FullOTA-MF, and not the SP1. In case you are new to this web page, click on the filelist column, and you are presented with a pop-up window showing 3 links. You copy that and paste in a new tab in your browser, download all 3 files, rename as necessary, and flash away! I have never had any problem with HuRU, and it keeps getting better and better every time.

Hi, I've extracted xloader.img via dd command, and it's size is about 4,2 mb (firm 145 l29c432); using perl script in order to extract xloader from update.app before installing it, resulting size is only 180,2 kb (firm 148sp1) :eek:

I'm not drunk, but something strange is happening :confused:

I get also a message error about system size too large (using perl script)

If you can't unlock bootloader, then you can't do root, so no manual flashing of firmwares. Just wait for next OTA - the only way for you to get an update. Maybe soon!

Hello everyone.

I need to go back to my original cust.

I have open bootloader, done rebrand to C432 and firm B150 with xloader 02.

Any system to go back to xloader 01?

Or to the original Cust that there is only xloader 01 firmware?

Thank you!

It seems that the only way is to provoke a Brick, by flash any firm xloader01, and take to the SAT for plate change ..... some less primitive method please![emoji13]

It's working as intended. When you use dd you get the whole partition, including space that is not used. But it's weird because all other images you extract from update.app is their full size, including unused space.

The thing is, there's only one file for my firmware, "update.zip." Yet according to the HuRUpdater thread, there should be 3 like you say (update_all_hw.zip and

update_data_public.zip). Or do those other two files only come with OTA and are not needed if flashing manually? EDIT: Nevermind, I finally see the popup window now!

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] klopeck:
But 138patch01 is xloader 01 or 02?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
ALP-L29C636B139 is 02. ALP-L29C636B139-SP1 is 01.

It doesn't contain an xloader so it's hard to tell.

Someone did downgrade back to B138 though but their xloader was now 02 (Which seems unlikely as B138 IS 01, and we know that 02 -> 01 = brick, atleast when going through TWRP/HWOTA)

All it contains is an PATCH.img which patches a few different things depending on cust.

Some are apk patches, other are kernel modules.

But one thing in common is that it breaks Magisk. (At least for now)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] royhanks3:
[MENTION=2247733]ante0[/MENTION] I haven't seen much reported on it, but do you know if 141 or 149 sp1 breaks Magisk as well?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] klopeck:
Thank you very much for your reply. I wanted to do a downgrade to 136 to recover magisk but I'll wait until I get more information.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
You can check from TWRP if you have it

just open terminal in TWRP -> Advanced and:

dd if=/dev/block/sda of=/sdcard/xloader.img

Then either upload xloader and send to me or open in HxD and scroll down to 1A8 and see what it says there.

Only Patch01 should break it, at least no one has reported it breaking from normal firmware.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] *Artemide*:
Magisk works fine with BLA-L29C432B148-SP1. Bootloader and frp remain unlocked after upgrade.

The only strange thing, for me, usg debug is lost at every reboot and it needs to set it manually after system startup.

Root is working, Titanium Backup needs usb debug so I set it before app backup/restore.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
SP1 is not the same with patch01. Try to wipe cache, maybe it will fix usb debug.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] *Artemide*:
Thanks for the precisation.

This thing happened to me with all firm, b127, b145 and b148sp1. After every upgrade and twrp installation I wiped cache, but USB debug is still disabled by default.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Idk, if HDB is on, try to disable that too and check if USB debug stick.

I also had the same issue when i bought the phone, but honestly i don't know what fixed it.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
As usual with Huawei, if it doesn't work a Factory reset usually solves it xD

I've had it too... Going, for example, to B145 it was broken, back to B142 it was still broken, back to B145 it was not broken. If it stays broken between multiple builds it could be fixed with a factory reset.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Yep, Huawei's devices love Mr. Reset! ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] essen212:
Why would they make patch1 have 01 xloader anyway? I mean are they trying to get people to brick their devices or something?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] PrfyVdlx:
01. patch01 is Huawei's patch to prevent rooting, so Magisk will fail. You can flash it, but your phone won't boot. Uninstall it, and your phone will boot normally.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] royhanks3:
Seems like Huawei is really playing dirty, at this point. I really love my Mate 10, but I doubt I'll ever buy another Huawei after all of this foolishness with the patches to block root and no longer giving out device bootloader unlock codes.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] PrfyVdlx:
Likewise!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] klopeck:
Finally I used the HWOTA method to flash the ALP-L29 (C636) B138 FULL OTA (without repack that with those that have face unlock no longer works) then I installed Magisk and with Titanium Backup I have frozen the Huawei update application because I skipped the installation of the patch (patch01) that breaks magisk.

Now I have the 138 working with Magisk 16.7

The 3 files i downloaded as below (Version BLA-L29 8.0.0.143 (C636))

1. Update.zip

2. update_data_full_public.zip

3. update_full_BLA-L29_hw_spcseas

Any advice would be great since i'm not familiar with Huawei devices.

Did you extract everything from the zip?

You should have: 'cygwin', 'tools' and 'check' folders in the same folder.

To flash it you could use TWRP by [MENTION=2642882]Pretoriano80[/MENTION] found in the dev section, and HuRUpdater https://xdaforums.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279

It's not that much different to Oreo. The downside though is that Huawei will stop with Oreo firmware after Pie has been released, so you won't get any security updates (if that matters to you).

There are a few bugs in beta, and they chose a white theme for EMUI which is quite ugly in some apps as the navbar stays white. But other than that it's pretty smooth

Upgrading should be fine, the original post mentioned downgrading to 145, any firmware after 147 should also have the 02 xloader as I don't see any reason that Huawei would use an 01 xloader (older) with a newer rom.

Hi guys, i have flashed to ALP-L09C346B143 and nightmare happened, the phone is currently stuck at bootloop.

Understand that it is a xloader2 after finished reading the whole thread.

In the eRecovery mode, i have connected to the wifi and trying to recover from Huawei server, however it stated "Getting package info failed", ended with an exclamation mark symbol.

Wiped data and factory reset from eRecovery, but still stucking in bootloop.

I have also tried to place the dload folder into the sd card and boot it with vol + & - and then power, the progress begin until 5% and its stated failed.

My bootloader is locked and FRP is unlocked. Seems there is no choice for me to recover my phone right?

If the phone is stucking in bootloop, can still unlock the bootloader ?

Yesterday i have contacted DC-Unlocker, they told me that bootloader unlock service, the pre-requisite is the phone must not in brick condition, not sure whether it is true, as bootloader unlock is via Fastboot, and my Fastboot is still working.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
If you can access fastboot you can flash things (as long as bl is unlocked and frp is unlocked. This can, depending on firmware, still be used on a bl/frp locked device with the backdoor DC uses).

Xloader brick gives you a black screen, and that's it. Phone doesn't show any life... But yours does boot so it should be fixable.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] milogen:
I see. Currently my bootloader is Locked and FRP is Unlocked, and can't flash anything (even using DC-Phoenix) due to the xloader is 02.

Before this I was on C636B131, after I updated to C636B143, and its stucked at bootloop.

I tried to re-flash the C636B143 again, but it it will failed, I tried to only select Kernel/System and it is still the same.

If currently my bootloader is Locked, fastboot is working, can still unlock bootloader ?

unfortunately i do not have 1. with xloader 02, i can't get one from DC-Unlocker or FunkyHuawei and unlock the bootloader from my phone right ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
DC no, funky yes.

But if you never will use unlock for anything else you might just get one FH credit and reflash using their service (which uses eRecovery to flash, you will need a router you can change DNS in or a computer with a WiFi card that allows it to set up a hotspot). FH unlock code is expensive. There are cheaper alternatives but if you never will use the code other than to reflash it might be useless.

Though having it will (potentially, as Huawei could remove this option all together) let you flash again in the future without paying anything extra.

There is FH, Ministryofsolutions, and this one: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78336688&postcount=271, and possibly some other i don't know about.

The previous rom i flashed from B131 to B143 was via DC-Phoenix, and then bootloop happened and not possible to flash any rom anymore, due to xloader 02, i tried to reflash the same rom also not possible (error message mentioned Failed)

The weird thing is when i check my phone info via fastboot, its still showing my device running as B131.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Luinwethion:
Firmware finder checks if there is something available on Huawei's servers... There is (better said was) the option to force install an update AFTER it was signed by Huawei, meaning Huawei gave green light for a certain build to be published.

It's very well known that not all builds ever get signed/released they might have made to Huawei's OTA server by accident or maybe those builds are designed for specific devices from Huawei and it's partners to test some things. There is no point in blaming either Huawei or the FF team for this...

to your comfort: the turbo and emui 8.1 will probably not do anything significant lol. you may miss out on the android p update next april but i think thats somewhat manageable

The handheld nightshot isnt that useful either.... its not like you take photos at night every day. its nice to have but actually nobody really needs it. 99% of the time normal photos turn out just fine or you find a way to rest the photo to take a proper night shot (which is way better than handheld).
