Hello Thanks for your help but my understanding of this process is that it'll update directly the phone isnt'it? Or can i get the zip package from this tool?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] newbit:
Dont know. I just take the filelist file and use my downloadmanager to download the zips.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] gikita:
Hello

Can you show me how you generate the link to download the packages?
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] newbit:
Sure, which link?

... I suppose you need the ones you've already mentioned...

So, get the full link to your desired Firmware's filelist.xml i.e. VIE-AL10c00b399SP20

http://update.dbankcdn.com/download/data/pub_13/HWHOTA_hotaMigrate_900_9/68/v3/965e7aed537e4b0bb25c5c363e817f96/full/filelist.xml

Inside you will find something like this:

<vendorInfo logfile="changelog.xml" name="common" package="update.zip" subpath=""/>
<vendorInfo logfile="changelog_all_cn.xml" name="VIE-AL10-all-cn" package="update_full_VIE-AL10_all_cn.zip" subpath="VIE-AL10_all_cn"/>
<vendorInfo logfile="" name="public" package="update_data_full_public.zip" subpath="public"/>

Which will lead you directly to your links.

Hi

I have only a few question

1. After run twrp program ask me about description passwod - who know it?

I know i can cancel it, but when i flash lineage after reboot system ask me about encrypted password.

I was try: my lock password, pin i wrote "password", "default_password" - don't worked.

2. when i try root my phone (AL10 C00 537) using latest version of magisk or super SU always i have loop boot the phone

Can you explain me what is wrong?

Edit:

Last question:

Can I use recovery_ramdisk P9-VIE_EVA-8.0.0-TWRP-v4.img file to magisk root patch ? It will be worked? I will be have twrp and root on my phone?

Edit again:

I install Magisk 23.0 patched P9-VIE_EVA-8.0.0-TWRP-v4.img and flash into phone.

Success telefon is booting but Magisk is not installed :(

Any sugestions, ideas? Diffrent way to install root?

Hi

my P9 plus stuck in booting screen even after restoring full buck with TWRP, factory rest or download latest firmware b552 from stock recovery still also stuck in booting.

its open in TWRP recovery only.

The issue happen after trying to root it through TWRP to install custom rom.

Appreciate you support

Thanks
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] ShaunSmit:
Try re-installing the boot.img from twrp
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] ah2hamed:
Thanks for your reply

But really I don't know which file I have to install it, even the link for the stock Ramdisk (VIE-b537-RAMDISK.img) as mentioned in post no 3 is not available, the alternative way is to use huawei extraction but this also not working properly with me.

Appreciate if some one can share it.

Thanks again

Just open the settings-tab from Huawei Update Extractor and uncheck "Verify header checksum" and "verify file checksum" - then extraction of UPDATE.APP should be possible.
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] ah2hamed:
Thanks for your support

After multiple attempts to install stock rom from SD card (unsuccessful all) since my previous rom was VIE-AL10-b552

Every time stock recovery forces me to update through server only (some time will find an update and some times no update found) after installing the updates found on server again system not boot

Then performe restore factory reset again not booting

Finally its booting after this method only.

1-Installed stock rom from server based on stock recovery

2- try booting and it will not then will open recovery after almost 10 minutes

3-first clear cache memory

4-restore factory

5- install custom recovery (fastboot)

6-install network and face unlock patches

7-install keyboard

With this only system has boots correctly

(maybe this steps will be useful)

TThanks for you all for theard and support.

NFC → is already working

VoLTE and FaceUnlock → https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77650688&postcount=5

I just did not integrate into NetworkPatch, because if someone like to flash AOSP it would be conflicting (because AOSP does not Support VoLTE for now)

TrustSpace → If you want that, it has to stay enabled instead of turning it off in step 19) of Post #2: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77650678&postcount=2

With OTA enabled, you must use 2) How to root if you use the Network Patch with enabled OTA

Google Playstore certification → click to show content:

1) Set your phone into Flight Mode (no network should be connected)

2) Open Settings/Apps & notification/Apps and down right in the dot menu click on: show systemprocessing

3) Go step by step into following Apps (if there): Google - Google Play Store - Google Play Services - Google-Service-Framework - each has the entry: storage - delete ONLY cache /not data

4) Open with Mixplorer the directory:

/data/data/com.android.vending/shared_prefs - search for the xml file: finsky.xml

5) Open finsky.xml with TEXT Mixplorer Text Editor

6) Search inside finsky.xml for: <boolean name="device-google-certified"value="false" - change it to:

<boolean name="device-google-certified"value="true"

- means, you change only "false" to: "true"

7) click on the save symbol to save the changes! - close Mixplorer and everything in the Background

8) Disable Flight Mode (so Phone search for network connections)

9) Reboot your Phone

10) Open Playstore menu /settings/ =certified

I also do not have USB 2.0, but it works also on USB 3 without any problem (for me and for many Users). Something seems not to be okay on your System/USB connection /whatever - I do not know. If I would be directly next to your PC and Phone, I would know it in some minutes. But sorry, in your case I can not help. You can just try it, to do it on another PC....

Firmware b535 is not approved yet and soon it is, it will come contemporary with OTA. Yes indeed the Website for Firmwares from Developer MT as well FirmwareFinder App can not be used during the last days and probably it needs some more days until the problems with their server is solved.

The official statement from developer MT for now is:

"At the moment there is a stable problem with connecting to the server. This is due to the hacker attack. We change hosting and fight with scoundrels. We apologize for the inconvenience."

Thats good news :) Yes, I will provide the flashable zip for VoLTE and Face Unlock. Today I had no chance, because I come back from work very late. I will do it during the weekend and post the Links here.

Face Unlock and VoLTE will be a flashable zip (both together).

Playstore certification like I mentioned some posts ago: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77738448&postcount=66

- can only be done with Root. Because the file, which you must modify by yourself with MiXplorer Texeditor, contains your Email-Address and Google related data of your User-Account. This can not be done with a "flashable zip".

Yes, ofc I will include the steps how to do - Guide will come also during the weekend - I dont know yet if Saturday or Sunday :)

-Reboot Recovery & Factory Reset
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
However b535 is not approved. I don't recommend to flash Firmware, which isn't approved.

I would wait, until it's official. If OTA is enabled you'll receive the next official version.

If OTA is disabled I will tell when new approved Firmware is available and how to install.

If you search this Thread for b535 you can see, that I already told - it's always possible to update with HuRUpdater.

You can also see, that I am mentioned in OP of HuRUpdater Thread as Tester for this Tool.

But I don't do any support for issues (safetynet or whatever) if someone install unapproved Firmware.

It would be good to know on which Step Number of Post #2 you got the problem?

Was it on step 10) ?

Did you see a black screen with just on one Line to enter a password?

This would be normal. I wrote also, what must be done in this situation.

Alternatively it's possible just enter any password and then Phone would reboot automatically to perform the Low-level Factoryreset.

But it seems you did something wrong.

It was a mistake that you did not update your system in the first step.

The actual version is VIE-L29C636-B394 - but you started with b370.

You can try following - connect Phone with USB cable to charger and press Vol+ and Power Button until Phone reboot into Huawei eRecovery.

Then try: download latest version and Recovery.

You must have WLAN available and Phone must connect to your Wi-Fi
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] bisder:
Yes I see black screen with just on one Line then I did step12) "Open update_eng.bat, click enter, enter the Unlock code, confirm Unlock on phone, phone makes a Factory reset with lowlevel wipe. Then the P9 Plus starts automatically into the system. Now you have already rebranded to VIE-AL10c00b399SP20 (Nougat)". After I confirm unlock phone it goes to factory reset but stops at 0% then it automatically restart phone after that it will keep restart, go to factory reset or recovery I am not sure but it has 0% show on display with one line chinese language. Sorry, besides my bricked phone I don't have any camera with me I can't upload a picture. Thank for your help
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
And what's with step 11)? Have you done this step too?

Following:

If you come to the screen with "one Line Chinese language" type a password (any) into this Line and press enter on keyboard.

If it's possible to do that, disconnect USB

This will perform normally a reboot and Factoryreset.

Where do you live?

I am asking, because if it's not too far away you could send me your Phone as package with Tracking ID. I would repair and send it back to you. (in the worst case)

But don't worry. It's possible to restore.

First:

Have you tried to enter normal Recovery - disconnected USB, Vol+ and Power Button pressing until rebooted to Recovery (from there you can manually do Wipe Cache and Factoryreset).

Second: Same button combination with connected USB to charger reboot phone to eRecovery, which is basically different from normal Recovery.

From eRecovery it's possible to connect Wi-Fi and download the latest version of the Firmware, which installs automatically after downloading.

Third: Is it possible to enter Fastboot Mode? (connected USB, Vol- and Power Button)

And if, what do you see on screen?

Please try all three possibilities.

The fourth would be entering any Password on the black screen in the one Line, if you have enough time before reboot.

Normally there's no such issue.

It can only be, because you didn't update your original Firmware from b370 to b394, which is the latest approved - before you started rebranding.

Updating current Firmware before Rebranding is really a very necessary step!

But it's too late now.

We will find any solution.

I am on AL10 B528 patch01, Rooted & enabled OTA ,

Asking if I receive an OTA , I have to uninstall magisk only or need also to flash the original EMUI ramdisk ? to can install the OTA
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Fil76:
Yesterday night Tecalote updated the guide for root

He updated it after i asket about OTA , network patch and device without root that i would root

So if i understand correctly now OTA could work with root and magisk installed
[Huawei P9 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
"Uninstall" Magisk triggers reboot cleaning the ramdisk to stock, but you can also then flash stock ramdisk yourself through Fastbook or TWRP.

You must also reflash stock recovery_ramdisk before accepting OTA

With the rooted ramdisk and/or TWRP, OTA will fail or you can even risk a brick.

Btw, if you wanted to be ready for OTA, you should have better taken only the network patch without rooting - this is explained in the OP post #2:

"Now it's time to make a decision

→ For selection, either OTA is switched on or OTA is switched off.

→ If you want to enable root access, or if you want to flash AOSP ROM, select the zip according to your original model - with OTA turned off.

→ If you do not need root access and would like to stay on Stock firmware with Updates, you can choose the zip according to your original model - with OTA enabled."

"NetworkPatch-for-NonRoot_SINGLE-SIM_VIE-L09.zip"

--- Non-root but OTA ready

"NetworkPatch_SINGLE-SIM_VIE-L09_disabledOTA.zip"

--- Root but disabled OTA

Same for Dual SIM L29
