[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] iacchi:
Hello everyone, I may be going a little bit OT, but I'm new to the Huawei world, so I hope you can excuse me.

I have a new (as in I've opened it one hour ago) Mate 10 Pro, which is a Christmas present for my mother. Before giving it to her on the 25th, when I will start copying all personal data over from the old phone, I would like to put Android 9 on the phone so that it will undergo the major system update without any data on it. I've tried to do a normal OTA update but unfortunately it's still not picking up the new Pie release and, despite the fact that it's now being rolled out in Europe, I don't know if it will find it before the 25th or not. So, I'd like to do a manual update to it. The phone is locked and it will have to stay locked, so hopefully there is a way to update it manually. The current firmware on the phone is this one: BLA-L29 8.0.0.150(C432), phone bought in Italy.

Looking around on the internet, I've found this guide on how to update a stock Huawei firmware. The same website also gives a link to a full update (or so they say) named BLA-L29C432E4R1P11B161 which, however, is only 2.9 GB, while I understood that it should be about 3.5 or 3.8 GB. On this page of androidhost.ru I've found a firmware named "Huawei Mate 10 Pro hw eu BLA-L29C 9.0.0.161(C432E4R1P11T8) Firmware 9.0.0 r3 EMUI9.0.0 05014VLL" but I'm not 100% sure if this is what I'm looking for or not, and the file is 5.3 GB, which looks like a lot. The not service firmware posted at the beginning of this thread, if I understand correctly, it's not good for the dload method described in the guide that I've linked. I'm not even sure that the dload method will fork for the upgrade from Oreo to Pie - will it? If it does work, do I have to copy the dload folder on the root of the internal storage, or just its content? It's not very clear.

I hope someone can help me to install Pie on the phone before Christmas. Other methods are welcome, I am not scared of following some instructions ;) Thanks everyone!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
If the firmware (EMUI 9) that you got from androidhost.ru it's a dload firmware, then it will work, but you will have to use an external memory (using an otg cable or adapter) and copy the "dload" firmware to it.

Otherwise, without being unlocked, the only way to update it's by using a paid service called FunkyHuawei.

However, before paying, try to search for an OTA update with a SIM card inserted,it should find B157 (EMUI8.0) first and then, if you are lucky, it could also find the EMUI 9 update.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] iacchi:
I will try to insert a SIM and check, thanks. About the firmware on androidhost.ru, what I forgot to mention earlier on is that where I live I'm in full digital divide, with an internet connection based on LTE which is not super fast and especially with a limited amount of data that I can download per month. It would be great if someone (who is also a bit more knowledgeable on Huawei things than I am) could tell me if the firmware that I mentioned above: https://androidhost.ru/SIe is the right one or not. I can afford downloading one firmware, but not too many of them. Thanks!

The update to 9 is not gonna wipe any data from the phone so you don't need to bother.

Offer it on 8 and when 9 is avail do the Ota on wifi just fine

Can any of the Europeans (BLA-L29 C432) who upgraded via OTA tell me the full build number after upgrade to Pie? In the end I've upgraded manually yesterday with the build from androidhost.ru and I would like to check if it's the same one than everybody else is receiving.

Hi all,just updatet my phone to .161 9.0 everything went smooth but now i cant find few options witch i use.

WIFI always on in sleep mode, and the second one is shortcut for battery in phone manager.Do they remove them or i just cant find it.Tnx
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] carbonize:
That is why there is a search function in the settings.

Battery - More Battery Settings

And the shortcut for battery of still there in the bottom left of phone manager.

Yes it is there but it cant be on the home screen... that's I'm looking for.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] iacchi:
Thank you carbonize for the answer, and merry Christmas to everyone! Now, the build ID that I installed manually in the phone is "BLA-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.161", can anybody tell me if this is a build number that makes sense, especially for what concerns future automatic OTA upgrades? The fact that C432 is not there is worrying me a tiny bit.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] sartan:
How did you install It manually?

Were you on beta or on 8?

Thanks

BLA-L29 9.0.0.159 (C185E2R1P13) now downloading...
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] iacchi:
I was on latest 8. I donwloaded this file from androidhost.ru (build number seems to be 9.0.0.161 C432E4R1P11T8) and I installed it by copying the right folder on a pen drive, renamed it do dload, and then followed this guide for the actual installation, connecting the pen drive with exFAT filesystem to the phone with an OTG cable. The build number of the file I downloaded seems fine (apart from that T8 at the end), but this is not the code that shows up in system info in Android.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] nicogri:
Does anyone know the difference between P11T8 and P11B161 labelling on those ROMS ? Appart the RU download site there are no infos at all on this ROM !

What build number appears in settings after flash ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] sartan:
The build number at the end is B161?

Thank you!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] nicogri:
I am trying the OTG method with the above firmware (finger crossed)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] nicogri:
So it worked just fine and I am now on 161 with no mention of any kind of B161 or T8 nothing so very happy.

BUT take caution with this method as it full wiped my phone !!!! :p:p

It's not a problem as I have fresh Google backup + Google photos + manual backup + Hi Suite backup so I am currently restoring but the link says it may erase data and Huawei internal doc in the zip says it WILL erase data and it did ;)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
What about OEM Unlock option in developer settings, can it be enabled?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] iacchi:
No, as I said the build number is "BLA-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.161", without quotes of course, but that's the exact code. That's why I'm wondering. [MENTION=993812]nicogri[/MENTION] if I well understand you used my same build from androidhost.ru: are you getting the same build number after installation?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] nicogri:
Yep it's perfect but that wipe problem took me the afternoon to have the phone as I like it even with backups

Same build but I have installed it with adb and root process.

I'm not feeling really confident with gestures..

Lol
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] carbonize:
No the gestures are an acquired taste I think. I'll stick with good old navigation buttons as I like to double tap the recent button to switch between two apps.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] jakeythesnake:
So many questions. Preamble: I have an unlocked bootloader, and currently a BLA-L09 C782 B133.

1. Which method here have people used that has locked their OEM Unlock/FRP switch? Is one of them definitely safe (TWRP, DLOAD, Praet's batch file tool)?

2. If I upgrade and the switch is greyed out like for other people, there is currently no fix - correct?

3. Am I better rebranding to C432 8.x and seeing if I get the update OTA (I'm basically on Vodaphone UK and someone has reported they have pushed it out)? Does that make the problem less likely to occur?

4. Which of the three methods listed originally will allow me to get OTA upgrades in the future? Are they disabled if we flash a "no service" androidhost update?

I'm sure there were more, I'll think of them in a bit...

Thanks!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] carbonize:
Like many I got fed up of the lack of updates for the C782 version so I changed mine to a C432. No issues so far and now running Pie. Vodafone same as yourself.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nogara:
Is it going to work on BLA-L09 (single-SIM) models?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] jakeythesnake:
Luckily my prevarication has paid off - I've just received the 9.0.0.168 update. I'm on Talkmobile UK, who are now owned and operated wholly by Vodaphone.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] jakeythesnake:
First bug found - Huawei's implementation of gesture control doesn't trigger Android's PIP (picture in picture) when returning to the home screen. Ideally I'd want to use this for netflix.

I actually like the gesture control, so this is a bit of a bummer.

Do Huawei actually take any notice of bug reports? If so, where is best to report it - through the 'beta' app?

edit: Fixed with a Tasker profile. Download here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1CMP91ZVASHyFgL68qGBaIQowUuc2qOWd

It enables the navbar when Netflix is opened, and disables it when the 'task' isn't open - this includes when you're in PIP mode. Fullscreen Netflix automatically hides the navbar, so once fullscreen you do have to swipe it back from the edge without triggering the system navigation 'back' action, which takes some getting used to, but then you can press 'home' to start PIP.

It took me some time but I installed it too on my bla-l09 without wipe. From .157 to .161 following the instructions, without root or bootloader unlock. Everything is there after the upgrade.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] wisemanwizz:
how did you use this method on bla-l09? Mine keeps failing at 5% at the software installation screen -_-

---------- Post added at 11:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 PM ----------

did you use the bla-l29 file that is provided in that post or another one specifically for bla-l09?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] amigoloco:
I used the two archives extracted in the dload folder. The first one was in the folder for bla-09

and the second one that have the update.app file was outside between the two folders for bla-09 and bla-l29.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] iacchi:
I could enable it in Oreo, but not in this new Pie build.

This is very interesting, and potentially the soure of my weird build number. I installed the update.app that was outside the two folders, but when, after that, I tried to install the .app file that was in the bla-l29 folder with the dload method the installer said that that file was not good for me, and blocked the installation. How did you manage to install both?

BTW, see screenshots for my current build number, which are quite different from what nicogri has.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] amigoloco:
Yep, my build number is the same as yours now. I put the all the files from update.zip to the bla-l09 folder and that is how I managed to install it, I cant tell if both of the .app files are now installed, though.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] hccssn:
I think, you guys miss the EU part of the files, so just the firmware got updated without the customisation. I did the same yesterday, then I had to use Funkyhuawei to return back to the correct version.

With the LGRP2-OVS build I missed the themes, vendor settings (LTE did not work), backgrounds, etc.

Does anyone know where the option has gone to delay the locking of your device to a specific amount of seconds after the screen turns off? Or of there is a way to get the setting back... It's quite annoying that the screen locks straight away after it goes to sleep or if i press the power button..

Hey, I'm having trouble.

I've tried both variants, and neither works.

I just read in one of the comments that, for those of us at 161, it is better the method of uploading from beta.

The fact is that when it has to restart TWRP, it doesn't do it, and if I enter TWRP manually, it doesn't do anything either.

Someone can explain to me a little step by step ?, I'm a Spanish speaker, so maybe that will make the situation worse.

Thank you people.

---------- Post added at 06:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:13 PM ----------

Hello again, I answer myself.

Effectively something was doing wrong, and were the relevant restarts, but because the script does not do them well, I had to do them manually, but well, it's done, I'm at 197.

And I confirm that it is better to upload than the second script, the beta.
