.178 profile match failed in safety net but all apps and gpay are working fine.

Uninstall everything related to hisuit and make sure it won't leave anything in the system then restart and reinstall hisuite and all the files needed.. that's what I've done to get it working.. same error as you.. might work for you as well
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Darkat70:
Just done that, I think that it might be something to do with hisuite just won't connect to the internet for some reason. I've reinstalled it a dozen times, even cleaned up the registry entries.

Same stuff for my C636 8/256. I got safety missmatch, but GPay and all Russian bank apps works great. On 206 I had a problem with GPay.

So, I think, that different versions works fine with a different region codes..

Seems fine. No idea what is blocking HiSuite from contacting Huawei servers. I would try tethering via mobile data to exclude provider issues and perhaps fiddle with Windows firewall and advanced antivirus apps (if any). Good luck.

I am sorry for my noob question, and yes I've tried reading all responses, but there doesn't seem to be any consensus. I have the canadian version (L0C).

My question is the following: to get the latest features, it seems like the most recent and feature rich version is .178, correct?

If I want to keep safetynet, CTS and google pay, would the .206 work even on this canadian model.

Thanks in advance

hi all i used this link to get .178 version (http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...00/g104/v233827/f1/full//update_full_base.zip ) provided by [MENTION=9094025]franagan75[/MENTION]. But in Hstool i get the same error...

Unzipping firmware ZIP file to HiSuite working area...

SRC: \\vmware-host\Shared Folders\Transferts\HSTool_1.3.0\update_full_base.zip

Invalid ZIP file provided.

I'm on Mac, it's why i used VMware station... So no chance to success coz I don't have a pc

EDIT : ok solved it with putting folder on desktop. But now vmare station don't see mate 20 in fastboot mode... ok in normal mode but not in fastboot. adb driver was already install but i will download android sdk to be sure...

EDIT 2 : same issue with android sdk.. Adb connect in fastboot not working

Edit 3 : that drive me crazy... i will look for dload file of .178 version... if someone have them that will be much appreciate.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
Did you install the FH patch on your desktop? The patch should install the adb drivers that the modded HiSuite uses.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ilos:
The problem is in device management, when phone is in fastboot mode, adb is with an ❗ like if driver is not installed but when phone is booted normally adb is OK.... I will try fh on desktop and not on VMware sharing folder, but as per device management adb drivers are already installed... This is why that make me crazy lol
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
I don't know anything about macs. On Windows computers you need to install the modded version of HiSuite first. HiSuite installs Huawei compatible drivers if they aren't already present on your computer. You should connect your phone which will prompt you to install HiSuite on your phone and give permission for HiSuite to communicate with your phone. Then disconnect your phone and completely close HiSuite on your computer. There will be an icon in the system tray because HiSuite is still running in the background. Right click to close the icon. Then you need to run the FH patch in administrator mode.

If you do those steps in order you don't need to manually install any drivers.

It's possible that drivers already installed before HiSuite and the FH patch are causing a problem.

HiSuite is accessing the ADB drivers. You don't need to flash anything in ADB manually.

Sometimes the drivers don't work at the install recovery phase and HiSuite closes. When that happens I start over but leave my phone in fastboot mode connected to my computer.

If it doesn't work twice in a row I start over but also unplug my phone from the computer USB and then plug it back in which should trigger a notification sound on the PC acknowledging that a USB device was just plugged in.

You should also disable your computer security (antivirus, antimalware, firewall and anything else you know of) during the update process because security programs can interfere with the update.

Also getting "your device does not support system recovery" or latest after reinstalling hisuite and patching it, "there are no packages for download" and then "your device does not support system recovery".

Disabled firewall, anti-virus, re-installed hisuite, patched it using the latest hisuite patch.msi and even tried using HStool 1.2.1 as well as 1.3.0

That is two "optus branded" Australian handsets now that cannot upgrade via the tool and software mine and Darkat70.

Something is going on.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomanic:
I did some further tests and this may shed some light on why it's not working for certain people - instead of running the FHHisuite as admin try to instead run the command line as admin, e.g.:

1) click Start button and type cmd

2) right click on it and chose run as admin

3) go to the directory where you have FHHisuite located, for example cd c:\users\T\FHHisute

4) type FHHiSuiteInstaller.exe and press Enter

On the screenshots you can see the difference between what happens on PC where it didn't work versus the one that worked fine:

1) Computer where it doesn't work:

2) Computer where it works:

In case the linked images don't load here are links:

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mdrda:
As noted in the OP not every firmware version is certified for every carrier/region. AFAIK this information is not public so it's a kind of lottery what happens if you upgrade.

Anyone in Asia/Pacific running 9.0.0.206 with ctsProfile pass? What carrier?

I am considering to support cust flash (soft rebranding) which would allow e.g. C636 device appear as C432, which in this example, would likely only help people passing SafetyNet in Europe (devices imported from Asia). There would be more use-cases for soft rebranding, however not considering it now a top priority.

Hi OP, can you help to figure out soft rebranding from China AL00 version to C432 use this way?

I think the funky Huawei use this way to load global rom in Chinese version handset.

FunkyHuawei (@FunkyHuawei) Tweeted:

We have successfully been able to load global firmware on Chinese Mate 20 series, with no bootloader unlock necessary.

We will begin taking orders for this service once we have finished testing.

Some nice news to end February :) https://twitter.com/FunkyHuawei/status/1099554255915151360?s=17
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mdrda:
I think their china to global rebranding is based on recovery exploit (also presented as root without BL unlock) which they failed to release so far. They are able to install root, but unpatched bootloader refuses to boot the modded OS. So no, I don't think it will happen anytime soon (I might be wrong). And no, not meant for AL00 internationalization, only meant for switching regions of intl. version (L29 and possibly L09 - not tested by myself).

1. question: may I have to leave the patch installer cmd window active and

not

push enter when the tool says about the login and credits?

And Start the hstool wait for unzipping and start recovery in hisuite with phone already in fastboot Mode..

Or I have to ignore the

response of the fhhisuiteinstaller ?

2. do you have manual method? Because every time when I start a try the hstool will unzip again and I have a slow hdd Computer and it takes at least 10 minutes ..

What does the tool after hisuite load the firmware?

Enviado desde mi LYA-L29 mediante Tapatalk
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
178 must be a beta ROM based on the odd numbering and it can take months for features in beta ROMs to port into stable builds.

I'm afraid to try making an in store payment on 178 with Google Pay but will probably try later today. 178 shows up as uncertified in the Play Store so in store payments shouldn't work although several people have reported Google Pay working on 178.

If Google Pay does work that means the ROM has been modded by someone other than Huawei which would make it insecure and I would have to flash one of the stable builds instead.

The M20P runs great on 178 but I'm not going to take any chances if 178 isn't secure.

Depends what you're doing. I would guess you're downgrading from 9.0.0.228? ("upgrade" to 232 still could be a downgrade, it seems older with 9.0.0.305 camera). If it is the case then it could explain it. I encountered this message when I was testing downgrades. Waiting for next firmware release could be the solution for you if my guess is correct.

The folder exists and it is empty.

When I get to the step where I hit recover (the second time after the handset is in fastboot), it just comes up with an error, which I can't remember exactly. Something along the lines of nothing to recover, etc. If I uninstall and reinstall HiSuite then the patch. It first pops up the dialog re: checking the Imei then comes up with the no recovery option error. I tried htools 1.0.1 and 1.0.3. It was all good until the OTA update from Optus which was only on the right of the C34. The version stayed .206. Users who have never touched their phones and were on .122 were upgraded to .212

My process is exactly as Wearevoip. Follow the instructions to the letter. After hashing out (#) the 127.0.0.1 and confirming yes (y), I then select "recover". It asks if Hisuite can access my IMEI, then comes up with an error, then get "your device is not supported by system recovery". That is it. nothing else happens. Close down HSTool manually.
