Thinking of doing a factory reset for once. I know it removes all personal data, but will it also erase my music collection, photo gallery, downloads folder, etc?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
YES, it will wipe clean all data (including music, photo, dload folders and all you have stored) from your internal memory?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] guiltyundertaker:
Thanks SilviuO. Maybe I won't for now then! I've got the 512gb version, and it would take about 2 days to transfer everything back!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
If you have a USB 3.0 and use his original charging cable it might take less time :).Hell, yeah, it's a real headache to backup all to laptop and back on phone, i admit it. But for the sake of performance and also battery life, i would reccomend you to take some time (when you have ?) and do it, you phone will thank you ?, in time.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] guiltyundertaker:
If I were to do it, what would be the best way? I'm on .123 patch5. Would I be best rolling back to .195 with HiSuite, then reinstalling .123, then restore my current backup?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Here's how i will do it sometime this week (need @5 hrs, because i will reinstall all apps and set them up again, not restoring data)

1. Backup my internal storage (music, documents and downloads - all my photos/videos are automatically uploaded to OneDrive at full resolution, i have 1TB storage space using Office 365, so no need to backup those -) and remove SIM's from it;

2. Factory reset my phone, set it up, connect it to HiSuite, downgrade to v195;

3. I'm gonna use the dload firmware for VOG-L29 C431 from my other thread to update from EMUI 10 v195 to EMUI 10.1 v123 (patch02), then set up my phone, update with patch 05 using HiSuite Proxy, then Factory reset phone;

4. Set up my phone (without Wi-Fi connection or Huawei account or Google account connection when set up), then using ADB commands i will remove bloatware (more than i've posted on my other thread from here) and after i've done this bloatware removal, restart to eRecovery and make a Clean Cache (i'm doing it 3 times, as i was doing waaaay back on TWRP before/after deodexing/flashing a new custom ROM?) and then insert SIM's, connect to Wi-Fi and Google Account, install all my apps from Google Playstore, restore my music/documents and then set up my apps from scratch.

Feel free to do the same or skip any steps you consider not irrelevant for you ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] guiltyundertaker:
Thanks. I'm gonna follow your process in about an hour. Seeya on the other side!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Good luck and patience ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] guiltyundertaker:
I've followed the above, and nearly done installing .195.

Quick question: Swiftkey is the default installed keyboard, isn't it? So, I shouldn't remove that with adb commands until after I've setup phone and downloaded gboard?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Don't remove it, first install Gboard and set it as default then remove SwiftKey and other SwiftKey related apps :) ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] guiltyundertaker:
Another question!

I downgraded to .195, then it offered me .123 straight away without using proxy method, it went straight to patch2, but won't offer me patch5. I've just factory reset, and about to remove bloatware. Should I not bother with patch5 for now?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Patch 05 can be flashed later, it weights ~150 MB and it doesn't have such a big impact. Anyway, next firmware will include patch 05, so it's up to you if you want to have it right now, install it later using HiSuite Proxy or wait for next firmware :). I would remain on 2, though :rolleyes:
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] khalid0099:
Hi sir can you make video guide how install process
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Don't have my laptop, yet, it came today via courier but it had the screen corner cracked and return it to vendor :( so can't help untill i will get another one. For the moment, I reply and do whateveer it needs from my phone....

But the guide isn't clear enough or do you need more info? ? Please let me know what you need and maybe i can help you untill i or someone else will create a video guide....
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Alexxxx1:
Why dont use only step 3, dload? Eventually, when you use dload all steps before are irrelevant. I think that is not necessary to rollback to emui 10.0 to upgrade again to 10.1 if you already have service rom 123.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] khalid0099:
Process is confusing but i will try tomorrow thank you
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
It's a thing i do everytime i upgrade for the first time on an upgrade firmware, as EMUI 10 to 10.1. When update on the same version (ex.EMUI 10 any release), i skip downgrade step to a previous version and only flash dload firmware :)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
For what cust you need firmware? C605? VOG-L29? VOG-L04? :D

1. Download and Install Hisuite ;

2. Download and unzip HISuite Proxy - latest build v1.8.5 released on 21.06.2020.

3. Open HISuite Proxy Application AND click on "SETUP" button; after all SETUP process is done,

check in Hisuite settings if the SETUP button has wrote proxy configuration

like Proxy Adress 127.0.0.1 and Port 7777, then proceed to next step;

4. Use the links bellow as following:

Package URL (open in browser and copy url from there) - http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G5731/g1755/v411914/f1/full/filelist.xml

Hi Mate

I have a P40 Pro demo

i can remove software but timeout display stays at 15sec and mobile data not working

I can try anything you can offer to help everyone

model: ELS-NX9

BUILD NUMBER :10.1.0.131D (C652E6R3P1)

EMUI version 10.1.0

lets know if your interested

Regards
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Try using ADB commands and remove retail demo. The name of that package to remove retail demo on Huawei phone's is:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.retaildemo

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.experience.mar.can

If it's not working, check the phone with package inspector app because the end might change (the .mar.can part).

For mobile data, try after removing demo mode.

If you want to enable the PIN code and the fingerprint (Screen Lock-Face-Finger lock-unlock enabling) use this commands :

adb devices

adb shell

locksettings set-pin --old 0000 8888

(now 8888 is your Display PIN ! You can now change in mobile) go to face unlock, scan yourself or your finger.

Another way:

You can set a pin using google find my device just click to protect my device

All protections work!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] datto666:
Thanks for reply

these are the adb commands that worked for me

adb shell cmd package uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.retaildemo

adb shell cmd package uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.experience.els.oversea

adb shell locksettings set-pin 8888

( i had no pin to begin with)

Problem still is no mobile data

apn is correct

but when i swipe down and click mobile data icon , it doesnt highlight and stays dull

same with display timeout 15sec if i click 10min . it stays on 15sec

any idea

cause i think i have ran out of ideas

Thanks again for your thoughts
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
About mobile data, i think that these P40 PRO retail demo units don't have baseband / modem files installed as retail ones do.

I would also reccomend you to flash this retail dload firmware for C432 cust (it needs a paid account to download), but it might get you a softbricked phone and from that the only way to revive it is by using this original demo firmware or changing motherboard. So it's kinda risky, because no one tested this on P40 models and i'm not so familiar with new Kirin / bootloader from P40 Pro.

You could also try using the method from this thread, by flashing P40 Pro retail cust + base + preload, but i can't seem to find them on Firmware Finder, only for chinese device. Maybe [MENTION=8477970]IProfessor[/MENTION] can help you with those, if they exists on FF servers :D

Good luck on any decision you might take regardless your demo unit and sry that i couldn't help you with more info's :(.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:

When the phone boots after a reset , there is mobile data connection for about 10 sec then it goes

I can still make calls no problem

I have a Paid E/F account so if there is any other files you think could help

I have download ELS-NX9 10.1.0.131(C432) buts gives me errors when i try install via Chimeratool

any other tool you recommend

Tried lots of FF files downloads and installs from PC with HiSuite

but on reboot ( fails )

Normally i am a Samsung guy

but got this phone cheap 250 euro

so gives me a Challenge

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Then it means something is different then it's on P30 Pro....Users of C900 cust (broken cust) or demo devices also tried this method (you should use it with C432 dload firmware you allready have), BUT i don't guarantee it will work and won't SOFTBRICK YOUR phone :( there's 50-50 chances, because this wasn't tested on P40 Pro. Guess you should ask for help on P40 forums, maybe there's someone who can help you there. Again, i haven't tested because i don't own a P40 Pro device so all this are suppositions :(
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] IProfessor:

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] acmerw:
Flash with approved base,cust and preload c432 or c431, you'll get rid of demo, but no huawei id can be added, also marketplace icon will be visible in notification bar. mobile data should be ok, partialy converted in that way a lot of 30 series devices.

Tried with Hisuite proxy right?

They have to be together along with CUST and Preload PKG boxes ticked

In which step the installation fails? In Hisuite or when phone restarts?

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] IProfessor:
I guess that's because your phone is ELS-LGRP4-OVS 10.1.0.121 but I sent LGRP6 firm, gonna search for further firms tomorrow wish me luck, will see if I can find such a firm for you to test...

i have THE ELE-L29 with approved 10.1.0.126(C431E22R2P5) but safetynet test fails.

I want to go back to 10.0.0.195 is any way to do this ??
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
For ELE-L29 C431 you should have flashed v123, that version is the one intended to be on ELE-L29 C431, not v126. To see that i'm right, do the Safety Net Test and see that it faills, because you don't have the right firmware installed.

If Firmware Finder says that the firmware is approved for installation on your device, that doesn't mean that you can install it. First you should wait for others that allready receive it and have the same cust as yours and then flash the same firmware as they got it OTA.

I've also mentioned in OP which version is for which cust, too.

You need to flash v123 on your device (with or without patch 02 using HiSuite Proxy) and then connect your phone to HiSuite, remove Proxy settings from HiSuite Settings and then check for an update. It will say you're on latest and bellow it will show you the optiin to rollback to EMUI 10, latest available for ELE-L29 C431.

Maybe, but needs testing :) ussualy Huawei change xloader version on every major firmware update and as i know (i might be wrong and could be the same one as in EMUI 10) only in the downgrade version you have the right xloader to downgrade without issues ? and fear of softbrick.

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rm001:
No, I couldn`t flash 10.0.0.195 over the 10.1.0.126. The only working sequence was: 10.1.0.126 -> 10.0.0.173 -> 9.1.0.241. For my device (VOG-L29 С10) both 10.0.0.173 and 9.1.0.241 are a service ROMs, so I presume that for downgrade it is necessary to took only those ROMs that are "service" for the specific model number.

* Copy downloaded firmware zip in = C:\Users\BP\Documents\HiSuite\ROM\VOG-LGRP2-OVS 10.1.0.126\full

* In Hisuite Proxy click on Advanced/Customization/Local Base File choose from above path in C drive

Using dload firmware guess it will be ok, because even if it gets softbricked, you can use this method to revive it and then using HiSuite Proxy you can flash back your right base+cust+preload and get back on your cust.

Using HISuite Proxy can be 50-50, because there's only ONE v206 firmware available on Firmware Finder and don't know if it will work or not.
