how you install

i install with emuiflasher 9.1.0.252 ovs and after 100% pass sucess update, my mate9 no more starts, no turn on more.

help me unbrik please
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] robogo1982:
Send it in for repair. I don't think you can fix your phone on your own because you flashed a ROM not designed for your device.

With HiSuite on PC you can always restore an older version,always offer a return to the older version

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cortex69:
For you and all the rest struggling:

1. Download through Firmware Finder. LGRP2 is beta test coding, OVS is for al markets but China. This means the file has all data necessary, regardless of Cxxx variant.

2. Create folder "HWOTA9" on SD card root, copy the file downloaded from FF to the folder mentioned and change the file name to "update.zip".

3. Download and copy the file from the link https://drive.google.com/open?id=1yiJGPJnFSby1IzvYn1xCBdYGHiIfXbOq to the HWOTA9 folder. It is simply modified hwota script that will push only one file - update.zip.

4. Download and copy the file from the link https://drive.google.com/open?id=1OX2lORvGKPp6g-42ZnbI_d-XgBEqiGGx. It is custom recovery that skips dependancy check.

5. Boot to TWRP, wipe all BUT SD card and flash hwota91_update.zip.

EMUI 9.1 brings new architecture, therefere you might have the update crash and soft bricked device. Should it happened, you need to flash TWRP as recovery_ramdisk in bootloader and follow the steps alreay mentioned - again. As a final result you will get clean update flashed.

but twrp no works good in Huawei.

i put update.zip in hwota9 and the file from link driver and flash in twrp the file update from FFinder?

twrp works ?

need flash 9.1.0.255 only ??

i flash in twrp ( hwota9_update.zip ) corretc

i put update.zip and hwota9_update.zip in folder hwota9 in sd card and flash....no works ...device reboot for twrp againg and no update
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cortex69:
Apologies, wrong file. I have updated my post with correct hwota9.1 file, this should work.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] aureliolage:
too no works

enter twrp and run script but says this print

https://ibb.co/mRgYD6K
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Licaon_Kter:
Well that hwota script is this:

#!/sbin/sh
dd if=/external_sd/HWOTA9/MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img of=/dev/block/sdd37
dd if=/external_sd/HWOTA9/MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img of=/dev/block/sdd32
echo --update_package=/sdcard/HWOTA9/update.zip > /cache/recovery/command
reboot recovery

...so since you did not mention where MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img comes from, yes, TWRP will reboot.....but back to TWRP.

[MENTION=9949141]aureliolage[/MENTION] in that folder put MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img too, (get it from EDIT: that one from flashtool is not working).

Ok, I got this far...so now TWRP reboots in recovery, recovery checks the update (the nocheck file should make it work, right?)...but it fails to verify... :(

Thoughts?

Yup, at least there is some progress, but seeing the same with .252 here too. :(

Will try .255 next.

/LE: Nope same for .255, installs fine, factory reset, HUAWEI logo with animation and sound, reboot. :(

Trying the "dload" on SD card way, stuck at "Installing update... 5%" for 10 minutes, then reboot. :(

Trying eRecovery, connect to Wi-Fi, then "Getting package info failed" :(

FYI, all these not because I was trying to install Treble or GSI or custom anything, but trying to update from stock 9.0 to 9.1 via the official update app on the device, that was constantly trying to reboot to update for the last week or so. :(
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] aureliolage:
what files use for dload method ??
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Licaon_Kter:
Make a folder named "dload" on root of the SD card, put the contents of the update.zip file inside, shutdown the device, connect an USB cable to the PC (not sure if needed) while pressing VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER at the same time.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] aureliolage:
your use same 252 update.zip in Dload folder ?

i think , we have wait dload files completes in

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Licaon_Kter:
I agree RR is problematic (4h SoT, random reboots) but at least it's working, so you can have a device while you wait for a proper way to update.

BTW, I was stuck at one point (IIRC after trying EMUIflasher 1.1 w/ .252; OldDroid said this needs an update though), even RR wouldn't boot and FactoryReset would error out at 25%, but after the .255 install via HWOTA9 I've got FactoryReset working back and RR working.

Do note on C432:

* I had RR

* went to .191 via EMUIflasher

* factory reset

* official app insisted that I update to .191(E) (E = Europe? I don't know but there are 2 zips for .191 in FirmwareFinder, maybe I flashed the "other")

* updated

* no more updates available

*

(two days later)

.252 appears in the updater

* downloads fine

* install fine

* see Huawei animated logo

* bootloop

* factory reset

* bootloop

* go back to RR->.191 and WIPE everything to have a working device

I'll wait for the next release AFTER .255 to see, and hear reports around here of the update actually working.

Thank you krGemini. I to am a Gemini =). This is great news. When I manually check for updates nothing comes up and my security patch is like January 2018 which still concerns me since a ton of updates even just for android 8 should show up. Do I need to put my sim in it?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] krGemini:
I kept waiting for pie update for like months, whereas I came to know from forums that it is already out there. So i just waited and one day out of blue, the ota update of pie arrived automatically. So I would say just wait for the first one and then you'll be on track.

You said that you rebrand it, may be there is an issue with rebranding because right now c432 variant is ahead of all on terms of updates.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jeffrimerman:
I'm worried when I flashed the c432 stock rom on the phone that since I don't see c432 anywhere that it's has no brand. I'm on a site below and it has all the roms. I'm going to use the rebranding method to load it on there again and see if that does it. I see pie for c432 on that site also but I don't think we are able to just flash the stock pie right?

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] helemental:
So guys I think I have an idea as to why some regions don't have their 9.1 update yet. Since we've heard news that Huawei unified all regions in terms of updates, we assume they will be on the same version. In firmware finder you can see many multiple update files all ending in .252. I'm guessing those multiple files are each assigned to a region. When you check the IMEI approval for each of those .252 update files, near the bottom of that list of .252 files, you'll find 3 that are not yet approved for C567, the us model. So my guess is we'll have to wait for all 3 of those files to be approved to be sure if we received the 9.1 update for our region.

My phone received 9.1.0.252 (C636E7R1P8) recently and bluetooth is a mess.

1. phone reboots every time I connect to my car. I get half way to work and it has rebooted.

2. Connect bluetooth headset to my ski helmet. Check through the day and phone has rebooted so connection lost.

3. Connect ski tracker app while skiing and it disconnects without tracking any more than 2 runs.

So overall it's been a pain.

Anyone else with bluetooth issues?

It also reboots at least once a day.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jeffrimerman:

Phone is not rooted. Does it need to be to get into erecovery?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jeffrimerman:
I don't think so. I think have phone turned off, hold the volume up and then put the usb into it and keep holding volume up till it goes into erecovery. I had to do that twice last week because I messed up my os trying to rebrand it.

Did it work?
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Walton_Melb:
I don't have time to mess around with this at the moment so I'm not going to try it.

Appreciate your help though.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jeffrimerman:
Use the backup option so if you do try it, then it will take a few minutes to get everything back on your phone with passwords etc..
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] arminbih:
Do a factory reset.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Walton_Melb:
Hmmm, I really don't have time to experiment.

What I have done is re-paired all my bluetooth connections and made sure my ski-tracker app is not being shut down.

This was a dumb option in Settings\Battery\App Launch !!!! Taking it off manage automatically has resulted in it running for hours solid.

So the M9 gets a reprieve.

I appreciate all your suggestions but I'm not keen to go into what I haven't done before. The phone is nearly 3 years old and a Note 10+ beckons instead.

Thanks again,

I rebranded but I did it at the same time as I went from android 8 to 9.0. Look at one of the more recent discussions and you'll see how I did it.

Instructions how to get an authorized version of EMUI 9 on EMUI 9 via Firmware Fonder

Attention, this method requires more success checks.

1. Add a line to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Code:

188.225.84.142 query.hicloud.com

2. Download and install HiSuite9.0.2.304, BUT NOT RUN:

HiSuite_9.0.2.304.zip

3. Replace the files:

httpcomponent.dll move with the replacement in C:/Program Files (x86)/HiSuite or other directory in which the application is installed HiSuite

HiSuiteConfig.xml move with the replacement in C:/Users/YOURUSERNAME/AppData/Local/Hisuite/userdata/UpdateDogDev

hisuite.zip

4. Open FF (any, I like the smartphone to register - less action)

Looking for a permitted Android 9 for your device on the principle: device_model-LGRP2

Example for Mate 10 Pro:

Code:

BLA-LGRP2

Once again, make sure it is permitted, registers the update for eRecovery.

NOTE: There are two types of firmware: CHN, i.e. for Chinese devices and OVS, for all the rest. So if you do not have Chinese firmware, then you need to pay attention exclusively to OVS.

5. Run HiSuite, connect the device, looking for an update, update, rejoice.

Per Settings,/About, I have - received by OTA:

MHA-L29 9.1.0.252(C432E7R1P8)

On FirmwareFinder there are no other b252 than (several packages):

MHA-LGRPA2-OVS 9.1.0.252

So, my OTA b252 is that LGRPA2 Beta?

And there is also LGRPA2 b255 on FF, with the same Changelog as b252 (and the same Security patch Jul 2019), do you know what is the difference and would it be worth to manually update to b255?

Btw, I cannot use HWOTA9 or EMUIFlasher since my Bootloader is locked/phone not rooted (don't have BL code)
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] enthu19:
on OTA I didn't receive any update, so I used the forced-method to update it directly to 255, make sure B255 is approved for installation before manually force updating.

ps. I don't know what is the difference between B252 & B255, I directly updated to B255 from EMUI 9.0
