I am not able to understand how they push the updates either.

I guess it's somehow random at this point.

My hicare, tried France, shows that official emui 10 is ready for France but when I go to check update, there is no update.

Yeah, i know that Odin is free and easy to use, but with Huawei is another story, especially with P30/P30 Pro models. There was a time when we could flash a FF firmware, but Huawei cut the devices acces to their servers and now the only 2 ways are to wait for OTA or dload method (the second is about flashing Huawei service firmware). But for EMUI 10 we only have to wait :).

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
For Huawei and Honor devices with locked bootloader are more tools to flash firmware from Firmware Finder, but none of that is working for our devices (ELE or VOG):

1. hstool - working great on Android 9.1 for Mate series and worked for us untill Huawei blocked our devices acces to their servers :(

2. HiSuite Launcher - EMUI 9.1 Update - working flawllesy on Honor devices and other Huawei (i've used it for Mate 10 Pro and no problem)

3. Huawei Firmware Finder (Team MT) - this method is currently working on all Huawei devices, but it requires the firmware to be approved for installing before using it ( that's how i upgrade my daughter's P20 Pro phone)

But unfortunatelly for us, the P30 and P30 Pro users, the only way to install before OTA or forced eRecovery (if it becames available) is through dload method, using Huawei service firmware, because any of the method explained above that works on locked bootloader with all Huawei/Honor devices are NOT working with our devices....

Sry for disappointing you, m8 :(

I got 240 about an hour ago (H3G customisation) but I'm pretty sure it must have got pushed to my phone because I got a notification even though I have auto-update disabled and I'd already 'checked for updates' today (anxiously awaiting EMUI 10 and was rather disappointed when it was another 9.1 update - seems strange to me that it was so close to the 224 update which brought the September security patch...)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
According to your SS, you should receive straight EMUI 10, because you are in chart. But according to the same one, i would not receive it, because i'm on v240? ?

Anyway, been playing for an hour with my wife's phone. It's more fluid, i like the new camera app, the transitions are smoother, but there is something changed in eRecovery: it seems they are preparing for dual boot, because it's changed vs Android 9.1 and you have to choose what you want to do (enter or start system).

Overall, i can see the improvements, but i need more testing, but on my phone, not hers :)))).

It's kinda tricky and i don't know what i've did to enter that menu, because i tried again all combinations to enter it and didn't worked.

Need more testing, but i don't want to break my wife's phone ?.

That's odd, because my VOG-L29 isn't carrier branded.

I'm confused now.

I got .240 update the other day, now software update states:

Current version:

VDF.GB 9.1.0.5(CT.F01)

9.1.0.240(C431E4R2P2)

I'm sure the previous version started VOG-L29

I'm on Vodafone UK, and I'm anxiously waiting for the 10 update, but I'm confused as to whether I'm now waiting longer, as it almost appears that my software has been branded by the last update, or if they've just changed the way they update, or if I'm just going mad!

As you stated, it seems that you have a branded carrier firmware on your device. Was the Vodafone firmware update present before v240? Is your phone bought from retailer or carrier?

SilviuO
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] guiltyundertaker:
My phone was bought from Vodafone, and it's always had a couple of apps and settings on it, but I'm pretty sure the software version has never reflected that till now. Fairly certain it's always stated a VOG-L29 version, with a mention that Vodafone settings and apps are also installed, whereas now it appears to have a Vodafone UK firmware (vdf.gb). I may be wrong though, but no way of telling as there's no changelog anymore...

Even if you jumped from v193 to v240 ( 850 MB for v224 and 152 MB for v240) still there is something more than an usual update :).

For those in the UK

Unbranded phones can have updates blocked by the carrier. This is usually for genuine reasons, like an incompatibility picked up during testing that is only applicable for their network. EE and o2 are notorious for this.

Vodafone and the MVNOs are usually good with not doing this.

Changing SIM may work. I'd recommended Vodafone. They have a large European network so must collaborate more closely with Huawei.

(This is regarding security patch .224 or .240, not EMUI 10)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] someoneelse999:
FYI I have a P30 Pro

On Virgin Mobile (UK) which is an NVMO, piggy-backing the EE/BT frequencies IIRC.

Model and firmware is: VOG-L09 running 9.1.0.224(C431E4R2P2).

I'm not in a rush, but I am always excited by a new release and also like tinkering with ways of getting updates, etc.

I've tried all the various hacks for hicare vpn shenanigans (on the phone), hicare windows app, etc, and nothing has helped.

As an experiment I rebooted into erecovery (whilst charging) and attempted to "download latest version and recovery". I did this whilst connecting to a wifi network that was VPN tunnelled.

Interestingly, the utility would only connect to a Huawei server if the VPN was off. Connecting via any other country prevented the tool from contacting the servers. It also permanently severed connection if the VPN was started once already connected (ie: it could not recover).

Is this something to do with the phone region / firmware setting, or could it be the IMEI is pegged to UK etc, hence the reason why updates can't be "forced"?

**EDIT**

Also I am guessing the L09 is not going to get the update yet anyway, as it's the retail dual sim L29 that seems to be in the running as of now?
