Hi there :)

Without sdcard it's not recommend but you can do this:

1. Extract system.img , kernel.img, erecovery_ramdisk.img, recovery_ramdisk.img from the UPDATE.APP off the original firmware(an older version than the current is required) using Huawei Extractor (link-->https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2433454)

2. Then flash all the images above via fastboot.

3. Boot into the system.

4. Do a quick setup without configuring anything (skip all).

5. Enable developer options in Settings-->System-->Info-->Tap build number until it appears "you are now a developer".

6. Enable USB debugging under developer options-->Debugging.

7. Connect your phone to your pc using USB file transfer on your phone, after that it will appear a message to authorize the computer using USB debugging with a code, accept it.

8. Start HiSuite on your PC and it should be able to connect now.

After that simply update your system via Hisuite and you should get your phone to its original state.

Best of hopes,

Cheers,

AS

Has anyone been able to root emui 9 beta? Or install TWRP, if anyone knows please help us.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] sofsamu:
how can i install the beta on ane-lx1?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Arnys:
I instaled twrp, can access system aps, delete them etc, but cant root right now.

Later when will be home will type down how access twrp, thats kinda tricky right now.

Ps, if im correct, i cant root, because twrp i use are 3.2.1-0 version, but to be able to root we need 3.2.3-1 as minimum for emui 9, so , if someone got time and can pack all twrp 3.2.3-1 or never for any emui 9 phones, i later can chek and maybe some will work on p20 lite.

[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] unfratrix:
Yes please, I would also like to see a quick video on EMUI 9.1 on the P20 lite on YouTube.

Do we also get AI with the EMUI 9.1 update?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex4evah:
The AI capabilities require an SOC built for those particular tasks, and those SOCs are the ones found in flagships. Since this model is not a flagship, I doubt we'll benefit too much from the AI technology.

I'm not sure about that but if the betas arrived this week in Europe then it could be a month or so. It will be delivered in Japan in May, that was confirmed.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] unfratrix:
When will the betas be launched in Europe. (the Netherlands in particular :) ) Will the betas still be launched this week? And is the update for the ANE-LX1 in Firmware Finder a beta or the real finished update?

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

Guys, there is a rollback update added in Firmware Finder for the ANE-LX1. This could mean that Huawei is preparing for the beta or update.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ars_chelsea:
Hi :)

The beta version of EMUI 9 was already launched in Europe but only for the model ANE-LX1C432 which is the main model for Europe (all countries of Europe involved), which means there won't be a beta version for each country communications operator provider.

For example, I bought my phone in a retail store in Europe so my model is ANE-LX1C432, if you bought your phone on a network/ communications provider store (like vodafone,orange,T-mobile ,etc...) then you get slower updates (like really slow sometimes)
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] unfratrix:
Thanks for the fast reply! I also have the ANE-LX1 (C432) but I don't see anything in the BETA app. But the latest update for our model is 8.0.0.178 (march) and I am still on 8.0.0.174 (February). Maybe that's the problem?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex4evah:
They haven't oficially started rolling out the beta update, that's why you're not seeing anything in the app. I'm on 8.0.0.178, and I can assure you that's not the case.

I can't wait for the beta program to start! I don't think they'll launch it during the weekend so we've got to wait a bit more.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] vince.lupe:
Some news: out of nowhere, Pie has appeared for the ANE-LX3(C605) - my device (Bolivia); What does this mean? It's here before the beta? It will be arriving soon? Likewise, rollback software is here? My current version is actually 8.0.0.162, but the rollback software is 8.0.0.161.

Does someone know what this type of Firmware means? It's a FULL-OTA
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] JordyEGNL:

I'm on 4g so could that be the problem?

[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Azimoff:
Do I need unlocked bootloader, root or smth?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] unfratrix:
Yes, you need an unlocked bootloader and root so that you can install TWRP or Flashy. Let us know if you succeeded :)
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Azimoff:
Woow, such a long way, tomorrow i will try, but the thing is that if I root i will lose system update function :)
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] unfratrix:
If you installed Flashy or TWRP and flashed the official EMUI 9 firmware (on Firmware Finder) you won't be rooted anymore after the flash. So then you won't lose the system update function. I hope it works, I wish you luck :)

There are already FULL-OTA MF files on Firmware Finder so you can install in via the dload method, right? But they still say -log in the end, so that means there are still beta versions.

---------- Post added at 05:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 PM ----------

Guys, the problem is the UPDATE.APP file and there isn't a solution for it. You can only install the firmware by flashing it via TWRP or Flashy. So I guess we still have to wait to the official beta...

Thank you! Actually, my girl has the P20 Lite, and I am not familiar with the EMUI and themes that comes with it. I just asked here on xda for her. What I did was just downloaded a dark theme EMUI theme in PlayStore and voila! All of the system apps (Messages, Dialer, Settings, etc) are now all have black background. Funny thing because she always envied the dark theme on my OnePlus 6 and I kept telling her that she would get it on the EMUI 9 when it arrived for the P20 Lite. Now she wouldn't be bugging me anymore on when will it be available for her phone. [emoji23]
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex4evah:
Actually no, you have to format your SD card and change its file system from FAT32 to NTFS. It can't be put on the SD card because the 5 GB UPDATE.APP file is beyond FAT32's file size limit.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] unfratrix:
Oh, thanks for helping me out! Do I need to format it on my phone or on my computer? Because I don't have a micro SDcard slot in my computer.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] t_i_t_o:
Or exFAT.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex4evah:
I've only done such thing on my PC using a card reader, but I think it can be done on the phone too. I'll do a bit of research.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] unfratrix:

I couldn't find a solution either. I'm sorry.

[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ars_chelsea:
Hi there :)

The reason why the dload proccess only works with firmware from androidhost.ru is because the firmware is signed by Huawei, the firmware from Firmware Finder is not signed therefore it can't be used via dload method.

That's probably not gonna happen but I don't know the update frequency you guys have in Romania or Bulgaria so, the stable update just came out on China which means the global roll out should be starting soon and should last 1-2 Months.

I can confirm that the Netherlands have the EMUI 9 update planned and that some of the workers they have here indeed know nothing...

That being said, I could just flash the stable Chinese version right? Any downsides? Is everything in Chinese? Are Gapps included? If not, are they flashable on that stable version?

And in other news I've recently started a project to get EMUI 9 rooted and I've opened up a website in which I'll show the progress live.

More details soon.
