you can edit my host file that I posted above. and leave it right, please
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] thanasis12.:
read the steps, edit #127.0.0.1 query.hicloud.com , and save. i think after must delete the symbol #, and save.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Darkat70:
No I followed the hstool method 100x to ever single instruction.. every time device is not supported.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
That's not your computer's actual host file. It says right on the top that it's a sample host file. There is no real information in the file you seem to be looking at.

You need to open note pad in administrator mode. Click on file/open, type in the word host and hit enter and the actual host file your computer is using should open.

It's not working for you because you apparently aren't altering the correct file. HiSuite keeps saying your device is not supported possibly because HiSuite is communicating with Funky Huawei's servers instead of Huawei's server.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] flyl0:
It's actually the original host file .. every host files look exactly the same at the beginning.

If he don't have the correct patch then it will not work..

But if He have the correct patch he just need to add this 127.0.0.1 query.hicloud.com

And disable it when the tool needs it with #

Use notepad++ in admin mode

Also you can try to uninstall hisuite and the patch, reboot and reinstall it.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
If that's his actual host file why is there no entry for HiSuite at all? He claims to be following the instructions carefully and changing his host file when told to but there is no host entry either correct or incorrect for HiSuite?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] douglasmietto:

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] C4P741N:
I'm following this thread because the hisuite method does not work for me either. Now I'm reading in every second post something about a patch - is this the extension the tool mentions during the "installation"? May anyone share that patch? Or is this simply that specific hisuite version?

I concur [MENTION=3253730]Darkat70[/MENTION]. I think the problem is that Huawei doesn't think there is a valid firmware to download based on the region and it fails. The hstool method still relies on HiSuite validating the version and then downloading files even though they won't get used.

---------- Post added at 06:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:38 PM ----------

the message from your device is not compatible .. does it have to be with the OEM option and usb debugging enabled or not?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
Didn't Funky Huawei modify their patch so it communicates with their servers during the install? Maybe the patch isn't working for some people because they don't have a Funky Huawei account or because they are using a different IP address than when they last signed into FH.

You are supposed to be logged onto the FH site and download the patch and modified HiSuite directory from them so it's possible the patch is now designed to not work if you skip those steps.

---------- Post added at 09:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 PM ----------

To further elaborate on why I think that might be what's going on for some people :

I did an update via FH method but when I signed into FH and selected my firmware my VPN was on. I turned it off and tried to do the update but I got the device not supported error message in HiSuite specifically because the IP addresses didn't match.

That isn't speculation either--the FH guy told me that was the reason for the error and when I logged back into FH without my VPN the update installed without any problems .

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Wearevoip:
There are many with this issue in this thread. It worked for me several times too. It worked right up to when my phone did an ota update. I was/am on 206. The update was from 122 to 212. My phone only updated the regional files and now HTools method fails. Also erecovery fails now before even trying to download anything. I have uninstalled, reinstalled HiSuite and patch with reboots in between multiple times. It is definitely being blocked. I'd be happy to go to factory and get the stock load. Nothing works. I'd even be happy to pay Huawei/Optus to restore it, but it is obvious through this and other forums that both companies are totally useless and will not help.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Darkat70:
Definitely something is being blocked, 198 used to allow erecovery and downloaded .122 optus firmware but wouldn't install because of the downgrade crap, then when optus updated to 212 it would no longer work as is the same with 210 I'm using now.

I tried hstool method pretty much a week after this thread started, with no success. That was when I was still on the optus 122 original firmware. This is happened right through to version 210
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Wearevoip:
That was the same for me. I was on 187. erecovery would download, but not install. Now it just says that there is nothing to download. I went from 122 to 187 with FH. I then went from 187 to 206 with htools. Then Optus released 212 along with the C34E11R1P16 update and it all went pear shaped. How did you get to 210 if you could not use the hstool? Dload method? I have a 212 build I wanted to put on to align with Optus in the hope that it would sort it out, but I can't get it to load for the reasons stated. If I could find a 212 dload file, I would try that. If everything else fails, I am really hoping that with the release of EMUI 9.1, Optus will release a new firmware in reasonable time that will pick up my version and re-align it, as it is now older than the current one. I have come to the conclusion that Huawei handsets are not for hackers. Masochists maybe. :)
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Darkat70:
I used the dload method the current halabtech L09 file is dload method, I tried downloading a few later versions 217 & Laya 212 &223 but both full ota. I've requested that they find a 212 dload firmware version and to identify which is dload and which is full ota on their website, but nothing much has happened.

[MENTION=7571035]mikeos[/MENTION] with hstools and the team who made the sideloader did a great job. They will probably be able to fix this issue, but until it is generally believed that there is a problem, that isn't going to happen. Unfortunately amongst the usual issues people have with Windows problems, not understanding the process, etc, are a few handsets that have been blackballed by Huawei (I presume), so erecovery and hstools methods both fail. They always fail at the handset checking stage which would indicate that something comes back from Huawei to HiSuite, or the erecovery tool that blocks any further progress. If you do find the dload version of 212 [MENTION=3253730]Darkat70[/MENTION], would you mind posting the link please?

Actually i wondering how many ppl had successfully upgrade thru HSTools method. I had successfully did it in one try.

For those who cannot enter Hisuite recovery mode, may be can try:

- Before start the process from beginning , plug in usb while phone is on, go to My Computer - Properties, to uninstall the USB driver and scan hardware changes to let the computer to re-install the usb driver.

- Restrart the computer, disable any anti virus and start the flashing progress.

May be these will help.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mdrda:
Those with no luck using the method:

- make sure you follow prompts really carefully (verbatim)

- if still no success, try a Windows 10 x64 system with as low bloat as possible (without previous installations of other mobile tools etc.)

As noted in the original post, the only prompts to be ignored are those coming from the FHInstaller to login and select device on the web. Just install as Administrator, close and return back to HSTool prompts.

Nothing more, nothing less. No rocket science with security (unless you did some extra changes to your OS like USB security hardening, perhaps not) etc.

If still no luck, your device may be incompatible with this toolbox.

I wonder if this is to do with the different variants of the handsets. In Australia we get the LYA-L09 (single SIM) and the LYA-L29 (dual SIM) versions. Department stores sell the L29 and carriers supply the L09. Mine is an L09 and it doesn't work. My current software though is LYA-L29 9.0.0.187(C636E10).

So is it because I have an LYA-L09, or is it because I have this handset with LYA-L29 software currently, or something else? The high failure rate, presumably by at least some people who are following the procedure correctly would indicate that there are combinations that work and those that don't. As there are no logs (that I am aware of), it is difficult to know why they fail. We just know that they do.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ubersapian:
Should be at least hisuite logs in your C:\[USERNAME] \Documents\Hisuite\Logs\ folder.

And perhaps trying eRecovery method via phone not hisuite will restore you back to L09 version.. Bearing in mind this will probably wipe your data. Then you can try the mikeos method to try and upgrade.
