Since you are a junior member and XDA stopped being anything like what you are describing more than 2 years ago I'm not sure what to make of your post or even if it's legitimate and not another of the many fake posts associated with a rival company that XDA actively shills for.

The last time XDA was free, honest and developer friendly was in the Nexus 6P and OP3 days. By the time the Pixel XL and OP5 came out XDA was actively hiding negative information about both phones from its members, Google had become anti-development and created safety net to block specific apps from working on modded phones, the developer of SuperSU threw in the towel because he saw no future for Android custom ROM development, paid tools, services and apps started turning up throughout XDA which also started regularly publishing articles that were sponsored by specific companies.

If you knew anything about Android phones then you should have known before buying the M20P (assuming that you actually own one which is unlikely ) that Huawei stopped providing bootloader unlock codes over a year ago and that if you wanted a phone with an easy to unlock bootloader buying the M20P made no sense.

Why would anybody spend $800 or more on a phone by a company that doesn't want you to unlock the bootloader and then complain about trouble unlocking the bootloader?

Your post would have been plausible a year ago but it isn't now.

FH is not a serious company...

Huwaei is not a serious company...

I remerbered that for my futur phone...
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ToniWise:
I agree with everything you said.

But maybe 'cause english is not my mother language, I haven't made myself clear enough.

Yes, I miss the good old days of XDA. As I said, here in the community I customized and fixed my Galaxy S4 several times. But I never registered in the forum. I just followed the posts and gathered information. You can call me a vampire if you want. : ) But I'm not a fake or even associated with anything.

Like you, I also miss the "free, honest and developer friendly" days of XDA. And I also never done anything that could vilify the community.

I continue to follow the news here. And at this time, seeing all the controversy involved around this subject, I login and exposed my opinion about it. Making it clear that I am also saddened by this new overbearing Android doctrine and that I also miss the golden age and freedom here at the XDA.

About my device, I don't have a Mate 20 much less a Mate 20 Pro.

I got a Nova 3 because I found one in a pretty good sale and I also wanted to get know the Huawei hardware as I said in my post.

But since the Nova 3 forum is practically dead, I came here to leave my opinion on.

You are right my friend. In everything you said.

It's really shameful and sad to see that the same people who brought this community to the world, are now only tainting their own legacy.

Be well my friend. And once again, sorry 'bout my English. ; )

Software update

Anyone got software update higher than 9.0.0.153 (C432) European????

From Huawei, NOT FH method....

Been waiting for this for a long time now. I do not want to update using FH method as my region changes (C6XX)...

Want to be able to unlock OEM before buying a boot loader unlock code from the first one how can provide it....

regards
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] speedyjay:
Diddly squat here...still stuck on .153. I have found the update file but I cannot for the life of me work out how to install it. Back in the day we just used to place the update file in the HuaweiSystem folder on the root of the SD card and search for an update....it appears that method is no longer valid. Apparently the roll out of 183 is in Germany. So give it a year and it'll make its way to Britain.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] flyl0:
Same :(
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dimon222:
A lot of obvious stuff, but let me clarify quickly ;)

tl;dr - FH and other third party unlocking services in fact used legal lines to get their unlock keys through Indian service centres of Huawei (well, and they were convincing them for $$$). Huawei itself stopped directly providing it, and they recently forced to refuse any unlock codes to be given completely. That's why all the services like FH stopped working, because codes now nowhere to come from . Its overkill to bruteforce them (its 1024 RSA), android itself is hardened to stop most attacks on fastboot, and basically there's no other way found yet (and maybe never, considering its not even about root, its the bootloader, the main part of everything).

If u want to debloat, keep using adb way. It will help to clean apps, but won't provide you way to make sure your android kernel is not intercepting all the traffic and sending it to China.

If u want to flash updated stock firmware, u could flash it using Software Menu and predownloaded firmware from Sdcard (some of nearby topics here).

The end.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] growlre:
I'll happily personally bribe anyone working for Huawei or service centre or whatever to give me an unlock code. Can't believe it isn't possible to find another chink in the armour. I saw that bootloader unlocking was possible before buying, but 4 days later when I got back to the UK with my phone it no longer was. Obvs not ever buying from one of these dodgy Chinese brands again (you know deep down they are not to be trusted, but you take a punt anyway), but need to make the best of what I have got now: i.e. sell or hope an unlock becomes available in time....

Am probably not the only one with this dilemma...
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jugih:
Yes. In Finland we have already 187 (C432) Dual sim ??
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
The paranoia surrounding Huawei makes little sense on XDA since the only Chinese phone companies caught putting spywhere on phones sold in North America are Blu and XDA darling One Plus which XDA continues to shill for.

One Plus has been caught multiple times putting spywhere in Oxygen and also allowed thousands of customer credit cards to be stolen from their official website for 6 weeks after people started to report the problem.

One Plus was told in late November that customers who used their website were seeing unauthorized charges on their cards but One Plus did nothing about it until mid January.

But go ahead and be paranoid about Huawei.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] fromiOS2Android:

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jugih:

Something needs to be done with FH advertising their extortion on here! $127 for a bootloader unlock code? Are you f**king sh*tting me?!
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dimon222:
Well, no more, they again stopped accepting orders.

Maybe they got too many, or again their unlocks are no longer possible.

Global unlock also no payment links and updates only promising stuff "soon". I assume we're again in questionable state.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] speedyjay:
Good. They claim they've invested in a new infrastructure that makes whatever they're doing "more reliable". All I'm seeing is the price forever increasing and the results staying the same....the consumer getting screwed...

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbes:
They already sell rooted phones. Root only available by ABD shell. It's up to the user to install other software via ADB Root shell. I think they managed to patch the original firmware and put an extra binary called "su" inside ;)

How did they do that? Does someone at FH have vallid signing keys for update.zip???

I'll start save some money (or not........) :eek:
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kaibosh99:
I think we all knew what he meant. Their statement makes it sound like they have a blanket patch. Hopefully it is solid, something that is fire and forget - in other words, the equivalent to a bootloader unlock code. They know they are the only show in town on this, 'codes' are still listed for $127 U.S. on their site so I wouldn't be surprised if that is what they ask. Pricey as that is, this is good news.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Minotaur:
I'm going to make a completely uneducated guess and say that their root solution will probably break SafetyNet. I don't think a Magisk-type root solution (with the possibility to block root detection) is possible without an unlocked bootloader. More than happy to be proven wrong in this case, though.

You can install it with one credit, you don't need to unlock the bootloader.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
So far, it has not erased anyone's data. Still it's better to make a backup. You should not select any of the above, you should select from the LYA-Global section. 9.0.0.171
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cygnus56:
that version does not appear in the list of funkyhuawei

LYA-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.171 - it is this one.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] pvillasuso:
It worked for me ! and didn't wipe my data or my setup , indeed it worked as an OTA

When you get the credit ( after paying for it ) , try to leave that "browser confirmation window" open

Something happened to me when the HiSuite began to download the firmware , it closed by itself several times.

Just open it again , select system recovery and it will resume the download where it left it , don't disconnect the phone at any point .

Did you run the program that sets up your computer to use HiSuite with FH? That changes your host file so HiSuite redirects to FH but if you don't use the correct version of HiSuite you get that error.

I now get to the "install recovery" step or install software, depends.

HiSuite doesn't play well with some computer set-ups. I can't identify exactly which software is interfering, but there's some issue that makes in crash on some computers, and it doesn't on others.

Usually if you keep trying it will eventually go through, as long as there are no issues with your FunkyHuawei account, etc.

This is a very amusing development. People are going to voluntarily become hostages to international terrorists. They will pay money for the chance to install code onto their phones that almost certainly contains the means to cause a recursive loop of bricking and blackmail. Is there even a way to revert to absolute factory stock? I doubt it. And yet, we will line up like sheep to the slaughter, clinging to the impossible notion that a developer is going to release a branch of Magisk for the 26 people that have sold their children's corneas for a chance to cheat at Pokemon.

I have no moral qualms about this, in fact I think it is the most hilarious and ironic twist yet. We own phones that are being banned across the world for the potential to spy, and the first thing we do is beg Chinese operatives to give us even more suspicious code to install. You couldn't make this stuff up.

The first Magisk module will be a Tor based uploading service where we can send Hivision-scanned industrial espionage data directly to Xi in exchange for FunkyHuawei shrute buck credits.
