Disclaimer: These ROMs/Recoveries are only intended for the BLU Quattro 4.5, or the K-Touch v9(which is the chinese version) These WILL NOT work on the 4.5HD or 5.7HD devices(I will release ROMs/Recoveries specifically for your device at a later time)

1- Download the drivers from link posted above, and extract it to the folder of your desire. Now turn the phone off, and hold Vol+ (volume up button) and Power button at the same time until you see a green screen, then release both buttons immediately. You should now be in APX mode(nvflash) it will be a black screen
2- Connect phone to computer via usb cable. Now you should get a pop-up window about installing drivers, you're going to want to choose to browse computer for driver software manually. Then choose let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer, and click have disk. Now you're going to browse to the location where you extracted the drivers to, and click on it(Ignore warning if it pops up, and choose install)
3- Assuming everything went as planned, now download the recovery and extract it to the location you desire(must be in a directory that you can issue adb commands from) inside of that folder, locate a file named recovery.bat. Double click on that file and a command prompt with a bunch of chinese pops up. Give it a second and press enter, it will go through the process and flash a recovery onto your phone
4- After everything is done, hold down the power button for about ten seconds(until the device powers off) Power the device back on normally, and download the ROM/ROMs if you haven't already and place them on the internal or external sd card(your choice) With device connected to pc, open command prompt and type in "adb reboot recovery" (without quotes) and the device will boot into recovery mode
5- Now that we have an English recovery, the translations below aren't really needed. However, I'm going to leave them up for a few days, just until everybody can transition to the English recovery. They will be deleted after that!
Recovery Main Menu: -Reboot -Install from SD card -Wipe Data/Factory Reset -Wipe Cache -Backup&Restore -Mount/Format -Advanced
Install From SD Card Menu: -Install zip from external SD -Apply update.zip -Unknown* -Install zip from internal SD
Backup&Restore Menu: -Backup -Restore -The rest are unknown*
Advanced Menu: -Reboot Recovery -Wipe Dalvik Cache -The rest are unknown*
To install ROM- In recovery mode, Factory Reset/Wipe Cache/Wipe Dalvik Cache. Then choose install zip from sd card(then choose internal or external and locate the ROM you want to install) After that you need to do the same thing to install the gapps package(you need the gapps package for google apps to function) once all is done, reboot and wait(it takes a while to boot the first time after flashing new ROMs, it has to rebuild the Dalvik cache)
NOTE: In case you aren't familiar with flashing ROMs, once you click on something( "backup" for example) a menu pops up pretty much asing you if you're sure you want to do that. It will have a bunch of lines of the same thing(which is no) and then one of the lines will have a bunch of writing beside it(which means yes). Also BEFORE you flash any ROMs, make sure you factory reset/wipe cache/and wipe dalvik cache, then you can flash the ROM and gapps package
*These will be updated regularly, as I discover what they are **More ROMs to come!
Internal Memory
The "BLU Quattro 4.5" has 4GB internal memory partitioned into 0.98GB for ROM and apps and an internal usb-memory of 1.63GB.
Is it possible to merge or resize the partitions?
I have 16GB external SD so the 1.63GB internal reserved usb-memory is useless and I still having trouble out of space in primary partition.
Thanks and sorry my english =/

Recovery + Root My experience
Hello... I got my BLU Quattro 4.5 (D440) a while back, didn't fuzz with it much right off. The Stock ROM was sluggish at best thought there was even an issue with the Digitizer/screen. But this thread was extremely helpful. I am now running Shendu ROM 4.1.2 one of the suggested ROM's above. I tried the other 2 first and they were mostly in Chineese and I had an especially hard time getting them switched over to English. Either way onward to the point. I have put together a few helpful tips-tricks for my experience with this phone and its phoenix transition to an awesome handset. Thats right now this is my daily driver and I love it! See below hope its helpful.
BLU Quattro 4.5 (440D) GSM Recovery+Root
These steps for this phone only!! Not responsible for any issues.
1. download ROM's, Recovery, & Driver from XDA (this thread)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327417
2. Enable USB Debugging! Go into Apps-Settings-DevOptions - Check box for USB Debug
3. Have original USB cord if handy! I tried with a Samsung OEM cable but no luck getting drivers to stick. Use original is best. (If you have one.)
Plug in USB Cord to PC then Phone and see if windows detects drivers. let it. It wont get the ones u need later, but what it does find is for USB storage. (you can move over your ROM's/Gapps to storage, downloads folder is a good spot).
4. Go to... http://junefabrics.com/android/downloadold.php to get pdanet software. Install it and it will give i the right drivers for ADB support. I used 4.01 to match the android version currently on my phone.
5. Extract the Driver provided from XDA. Put it in a folder with the ADB commands. Or you can get it all here... http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyNexus/rooting/GalaxyNexusRootNew.zipn <-- I know this isn't for BLU but, if you extract this to a folder, and also add the drivers extracted to it as well this works! I've done it.
6. Extract the English Recovery to the same folder.
7. Turn off your phone. Hold down Vol up and Power button for about 5-9 seconds. Once you see a green screen let go of both. Screen may flicker then go black but the icons at the bottom will stay lit. You are now in APX mode (nvflash) mode. (as stated above in original post)
8. Check your Win 7 PC device manager. For a Phone device with ADB. If you you may need to update driver with the one that came from XDA, but the PDANet software should make it work.
8. Go to the folder and find Recovery.bat file (may have Chinese in file name. Double click and a command prompt window will pop up with a bunch of unknown characters, wait 5 sec then hit enter. The batch file should take of pushing the necessary recovery through ADB to the phone. It will error if it can't.
9. If completes OK. Push power for 7-9 seconds to power off the phone. Hit power like normal to turn it back on. It will boot up like normal (or it should).
10. USB is still connected this whole time and you can open a command prompt window. Navigate to the folder you placed the Recovery into. Something like user/username/desktop/BLU/recovery..etc)
Type ADB devices....it should show you that is is connected to your device. Then type " adb reboot recovery " and the device should reboot, give it some time.
11. Once in recovery. Best to do a backup of the original ROM & system. that way you can get back into recovery if anything goes wrong and wipe out the problem by restoring and starting again.
After you backup === you can get into recovery without the command being typed in or even being connected to your PC.... By holding Vol up + Power till you see the green screen then let go of power but keep holding Vol up till you see the BLU Products boot screen then let go ===
Clockworkmod Recovery should be on your screen.
you can reboot phone now and get back to original with no changes. Or you can venture into the world of loading ROM's (There in your downloads folder if you saved them in Step 3)
ROM 101
BACKUP-BACKUP-BACKUP 1st thing once in Recovery ...can't stress enough how much of trouble you can keep yourself out of by keeping an original backup.
As I stated before the Shendu ROM + Gapps is running smooth and all features I've been trying are working flawlessly!! Thanks to original post for getting me going. Just thought I'd add my 2 Cents.
Ok, here are the BEST 2 ROMS for this Phone:
Android 4.0.4(close to vanilla) : MEGA
Cyanogenmod 10.2 (Android 4.3.1) : (some audio and video issues, in BETA version ) MEGA
Need to merge internal partitions ? (merge memories) this one really "resize" the partitions (first one 1,7GB, another one new size is 2Mb) the flash.cfg file you need to flash:
This phone dont have notificaion led, fixed with this app: MEGA (flash the botton menu buttons)

Here you will find my ROMs built for the HDC Galaxy S4 EX phone.
These ROMs are built for the MTK6589T model with the 1.5GHz CPU and 2GB RAM/32GB ROM.
Based on stock ROM Build Number S4 20130604-224540
Baseband Version MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V7.P1, 2013/04/10 00:41
Kernel Version 3.4.5
I don't like to customise things too much (since everyone has their own preferences) so I have just done most of the basics.
Here is a list of what I have done to this ROM:
v1 ROM:
Based on stock ROM Build Number S4 20130604-224540
Baseband Version MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V7.P1, 2013/04/10 00:41
Kernel Version 3.4.5
Removed all Chinese based apps and useless apps
Installed Chainfire's SuperSU and enabled ROOT permissions
Installed BusyBox
Removed boot screen audio
Updated boot animation
Deodexed all apps
Added init.d script support
Updated gps settings
Applied some build.prop tweaks
Installed Titanium Backup 6.1.0
Installed Android Firewall 2.3.2
Installed RealCalc 1.7.3
Installed ES File Explorer 3.0.5.5
Installed GO Launcher 4.05
Installed GO Locker 2.03
Installed YouTube 5.1.10
Installed Facebook 3.7
Installed Twitter 4.1.8
Updated Google Play Music to 5.2.1224L.847622
Updated Google Play Services to 3.2.66 (845709-30)
Updated Google Play Store to 3.10.10
Updated Google Maps to 7.2.0
Updated Gmail to 4.6 (836823)
Go Launcher and Go Locker
I have installed these two apps since they are my favourite ones and are very customisable and skinnable.
Only problem is their default install now has a lot of advertising so best thing is to delete all the home screens and start new.
They are installed on the data folder so feel free to replace them with your own preferred launcher/locker.
Just remember not to move the launcher or locker themes to your SD card as they may not work properly after reboot. (especially locker themes)
With GO Locker installed the home button will skip the lock screen and go straight to Home.
To fix this open GO Locker, go into the Settings, choose Home Key Settings, enable Home Locked and follow the instructions.
The Home button will then correctly go to the lock screen from a power off state.
You should also select option Turn off system lock to avoid two lock screens appearing.

4. Phone with Stock Recovery.
STEPS:
1. Copy the downloaded zipped STOCK ROM to the root directory of External SD card or Internal SD card.
2. Power-off the phone.
3. Put the phone in the Recovery Mode and for this you need to press Vol+ and Power button at the same time for few secs and then release the Power Button.
4. In the Stock Recovery, perform wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition (In the menu, use +/- volume keys to scroll up/down & power button for confirmation).
5. Depending on which SD card you have copied the zipped STOCK ROM, choose "Apply update from /sdcard" or "Apply update from external /sdcard" accordingly.
6. Select the zipped STOCK ROM to flash.

APPS taht can be remover (thanx navin_n)
If you have already Rooted your device then you can easily uninstall the system apps using "Root Uninstallers" available in Google Play.
However, for me , i prefer to use Root Explorer and delete the apps from system folder. The following apps are safe to delete but still i advise you to backup the files before deleting. If you use Root Explorer, make sure to change attribute of the system folder from Read Only (R/O) to Read Write (R/W) when deleting.
Be ware you make it on your own!! If there is also odex file, delete them too!!!
APPs that can be deleted:
folder --> /system/app
nubia_account.apk - only if you log in in nubia account (maybe you need this to use themes)
nubia_Calculator_v1.2.1.apk - calculator app (i dont like it so i installe another one and delete this)
nubia_Calendar_v1.0.apk - nubia calendar app
nubia_ClockWidget.apk - clock widget
nubia_Music.apk - nubia music player
nubia_myfile.apk - nubia file manager
nubia_NBSecurity.apk - nubia antivirus and system cleaner
nubia_NotePad_v1.1.5.apk - nubia notepad
nubia_zbiglauncher_v2.0.apk - nubia launcher for old people (everything is biiig)
NubiaPlatLogo_V1.0.0.apk - nubia lanim showing when you tap on NUBIA version in "about phone"
ZAppDataBackup.apk - nubia main app for backup your phone
ZDataBackup.apk - nubia backup app
ZQuickSearchBox.apk - nubia quick search box (if you install GAPPS it contains original google search box)
ZVideo.apk - very basic media player
If you dont use Live Wallpapers you cen delete the main app:
LiveWallpapersPicker.apk
and of course all livepaper apks
BasicDreams.apk
HoloSpiralWallpaper.apk
LiveWallpapers.apk
MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk
NoiseField.apk
PhaseBeam.apk

ROOT
the only way to root it so far is to run an Chinese exe, which will root your phone and install superuser (chinese one). Then you need to uninstall the superuser and install one from google play.
CWM
so far there is only chinese CWM 6.0.4.6..looking for someone who can make it english.

Hi,
there ar ea lot of Chinese phones, this phone is ment to be sell china only.
There are many forums but in Chinese.
I wrote a little review on gizchina.cz (is in Czech language,so use google translator)
TIP
For new users i recommend do this:
-boot your phone and see vhich version of formware you have (latest at this time is 0.50).
-If you have 0.44, then go to dialer and dial ##36. You get to the menu where you can select which server will be used for updates (at this time is 0.50 only for few people for feedback). then go to ybout phone and tap serach for updates and you get the update.
-after update is installed, go to about phone and tap 5times "build number" line , go back and go to "more" and "developer option" and turn on usb debugging.
-launch my root.bat, select root your phone and th ephone will reboot to bootloader and will be rooted.
-now you can install custom recovery (from my bat.file) it is bilangual CWM 6.0.4.9 recovery. Everything works fine as i used it.
-now after root and cwm recovery installed, make backup of your 0.50 rom and then you can proceed to delete bloatware (a lot of bloatware).
for rotted phones with CWM recovery:
if you want to make update from ZTE OTA, you have to load original recovery, the one in my package is not functional with update to 0.50 and above, so you have to flash from CWM recovery this package, then reboot and get the proper stock recovery, which will be functional with the update 0.44-0.50 and later.

Thanks for the info! I'm currently updating to 0.5 and will let you know if I manage to root it too.
I`ve read the review and mine phone too has the squeaky back cover. It started squeaky after just few back panel removals. This is not a concern for me, but I wanted to ask you something else: How is you call quality? When I do calls the other side can hear me perfectly but the sound through my ear speaker is muffled and not very clear. Increasing the volume make it even worse. Do you experience such an issue?
-the back cover is really squeaky (i allready ordered another one)
-I am very happy vith the call quality. I had a nexus s whos volume vas up to 100%. Now i am about 60% and everything is loud and clear as i can hear
root and installing cwm is like a charm..i made it in the las 2 weeks (as i own the phone) about 10times
one Question: If you reboot the device do you also have the message "android is upgrading" every time no matter what you do or not do with the system?

- I tried updating to 0.5 both through FOTA and with direclty downloaded update from the chinese official site to the sd card, but I always get some error (forgot what it was), will try tomorrow once again.
- My apps are upgrade after each reboot too. I was hoping that 0.5 will fix this issue, but It seems this is not the case.
- I'm on the hunt for a new back cover too, but I will wait for the official blue ones Share your thoughts on the one you purchased after a few days of usage
My only problem with the phone I experience is the bad incoming sound quality during calls. I will have try another sim card.
ps: boy this phone is a beauty

Hi, can you please tell the name of chinese official site for our phone? thanks!
SITES IN cHINESE LANGUAGE
Hello,
so there are many sites. To see attachments you have to register to the sites, which is a little bit tricky due to instatnt need of translation in the registration process, but it can be done.
official with a lot of new information also from ZTE service:ztehn.com
the best for custom ROM and Recovery (development):anzhi.com
to see anzhi.com you need to add two adress in your windows hosts file see here
also some good information can be found here on myzte.cn
another tip
-If you get the "android is upgrading" on every boot, then you have to uninstall titanium backup, reboot, wait 3 minutes and let the system settle down, then install titanium again, reboot, and its done.
-if you want to restore WIFI access point and passwords form Titanium Backup, use backup from tar file, not from XML!!!
Waiting on a custom rom
Hello everyone,
I used the method I found at needrom.
It did the trick; the device was rooted, gapps installed, an multilangual.
But I didn't manage to install the latest update (50). I thought it was because the device was rooted, so I removed root, whitout succes, I am still not able to install the update.
Also I think the contact manager is buggy; newly added contacts dissapear after rebooting the device, it doesn't matter if I sync the device. I have to import my contacts from my SD card every time this happens.
So, I hope there comes a good custom rom for this device with this excellent hardware! I have Miui unofficiall on my Xiaomi Mi2s, it works like a charm. I hope soon this device appears on the list one of these days
update
-if you installed the ROm from needrom, i think you cannot upgrade to 0.50.
-on www.ztehn.com you can download the full 0.50 rom (only english and chinese language) this rom you can flash.
-contacts: If you are in contacts, press "more" and "advanced" and check the "default storage" it must be set to your google account. Then go back and check "display settings" and check which accounts are to show in contact list.
I had same problem and the problem was, that all new contact automaticly save to local storage and i have the local storage unchecked to display..so i havent seen my newly added contacts!!!
I have same issue
I have same isse. I dont hear anyone. But everyone hear me. i think that built in speaker doesnt work.

Huawei P9 Marshmallow Custom Rom
* NewWorld Version 7 *
for EVA L09-AL00-AL10-CL00-DL00-L19-L29-TL00 - but not P9 Plus and not P9 Lite
Continuation and further development of the popular Custom Rom of Senior Member @Blackball from the Thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rom-huawei-p9-fromfuture-newworld-t3390820
NewWorld 7 Thread for German Users is here: http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/huawei-p9-rom-6-0-newworld-7-by-tecalote.799824/
So far, I develope Custom Roms for Huawei P8: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p8/development/rom-huawei-p8-gratitude-tecalote-t3468118 and newest creation: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p8/development/rom-huawei-p8-arrow-custom-rom-based-t3561615/
I am happy to present you now a Custom Rom for Huawei P9! Have much fun with it
Note:
If you don't come from NewWorld 5 or 6.6 - you must be (or go back to) on the latest Official Marshmallow Stock Firmware for your Device - Fingerprint would not work whitout this step!
See Requirements and Instal Instructions...
Features:
- based on Firmware b198 with the KangV Framework (Kang Tools / K-Settings) - which allows you a maximum customation!
- pre rooted with SuperSU 2.79 in System-Mode
- BusyBox 1.26.2 YDS by YashdSaraf
- deodexed and debloaded
- Callrecorder in Dialer-app for manual recording
- Recording of Calls automatically
- NFC ported from latest Marshmallow-Build
- Google Apps are up-to-date (2017-01-19) - (Google Login, Gmail, Exchange, Playstore, Google App, Chrome
- Special Restart Menu: Normal reboot, Hot reboot, Recovery mode, Bootloader mode
- included in K-Settings: Xposed Framework 87.1 from Wanam (install it from there: K-Settings, More settings, Xposed Framework - install Xposed) Reboot about 10 min.
- Management of Xposed Framework and Modules with Material Installer in K-Settings
- Special Phone Manager (Permission Manager, Autostart Manager, Notification Manager, Spamfilter, Virus-scaner, Dropezone Manager...)
- Maximum battery life
- some Apps preinstalled: TitaniumBackup, BlackPlayer and MiXplorer (very good Root-Explorer)
- Dolby/Atmos™ with Viper4AndroidFX™ (Atmos on Homescreen - but Viper4Android in K-Settings, More settings)
- Dual-Window-Mode can be started from 583 Apps - but added in the second window to the started App in the first window can only 28 Apps - experimental feature...
- some nice Themes (Porsche Design from Mate 9, BlackPyramid Theme from blackbell....) by the way, Online-Themes are working, but you have to register a Huawei ID
- a lot of more
Themes:
Some Useres had problems to activate Themes after installing the Rom. This problem occurs normally not and it is not an issue of the Rom.
Thats why I recommend following:
Before flashing the new Rom make a Backup of your Themes.hwt(s) from the folder HWThemes on internal memory and store this in another folder on your external SD. After delete the HWThemes folder on internal memory (it will created automatically again)
If you make a Nandroid Backup before wiping previous system and flashing the new Rom, reboot your TWRP within the main menu of TWRP "Restart" ...restart TWRP. After you can make a wipe and flashing the Rom.
TWRP (everyone for Marshmallow p9, my linked same as the one from paulobrien) has sometimes problems with mount and unmount Partitions.
The result is (not copied) missing files, like Themes. Themes will be installed in NewWorld 7 not in /system/themes (there are just the icons - for saving place in system Rom) but in /data/hw_init/system/themes. If you have already such a problem with Themes, just flash the ThemesFIX.zip with TWRP (without making anything before and no Wipe of Dalvik and Cache after) - this solve the issue. As I said, it occurs just sometimes.
General Requirements:
1) Marshmallow-Bootloader - if you are on Lollipop or Nougat the Rom cannot be flashed!
2) Bootloader unlocked http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/hwdownload/download
3) TWRP P9 for Android 6: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767122229
Note: TWRP has sometimes after an Nandroid Backup problems to unmount data or system. If you do Nandroid Backkup - please restart after TWRP from the main menu (Reboot Recovery) before wiping and flashing new Rom!
4) If you come from NewWorld 4.1 - or from nanoROM MallowPOP - be sure making the steps from the Installation instructions, otherwise Fingerprint-Scanner would not work!

12) Restart needs between 5 and 10 minutes. Wipe of Dalvik and Cache after flashing the Rom is not necessary, because you have done it before.
If you came from NewWorld 4.1 you must go back to the last official Huawei Firmware for your model. Without these steps your Fingerprint-Scanner would not work! Please check by yourself the Download of the last Full Marshmallow-Firmware for your model. Only for EVA-L09 Cust 432 (official - not Leak) you can Download it here: http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/11/download-huawei-p9-b182-marshmallow-update-europe/

13) With: fastboot devices you check the connection (Phone must be listed with Serialnumber - fastboot)

2) Backup your Apps with data
3) With TWRP make Advanced Wipe of Dalvik, Cache, data and system - after flash NewWorld 4.1
4) Do all 24 Steps written above!
Push-Notifications
The Push-Notifications are working for sms, mms, email....
But for WhatsApp, Viber, Skype and other Chat/Net-Call Apps the push-notifications work only perfectly if you convert them into a system app.
After flashing the Rom and the Setup you install your Apps and may restore some Apps with data from a previous backup.
Example: WhatsApp. Install it from the Playstore. Dont open it. Install Link2SD from the Playstore. Link2SD give you a list of all Apps - for example "WhatsApp" - just press long on it and you get a menue - use: convert to system-app. Then reboot your Phone. This time open WhatsApp and you have to authentication WhatsApp again. WhatsApp is searching for a Backup and offer you to restore it. You do this and now Push-Notification will work (dont forget to make a Google-Drive Backup of the Chat-History in Settings of WhatsApp before flashing the Rom)

Tutorial for return from NewWorld to Stock Marshmallow Firmware
If there is a reason to return from NewWorld to Marshmallow Original Stock Huawei Firmware - you can use this steps:
1) Backup what you need to backup! Use Huawei Backup and also Titanium Backup. NOTE: In the new Firmware or Rom dont restore system-apps or data from system-apps from previous system! Restore only USER-APPS. For Chat-Apps like WhatsApp, Viber, Skype use the built-in Backup function - but keep or backup the folder from those apps on internal memory (because you need them on the same place if you reinstall those apps)
Battery must have minimal 80% doing those steps....
If you have Xposed Framework installed - uninstall it (K-Settings /Xposed Settings /Install Xposed confirm - Reboot needs about 15min)
2) Open K-Settings /more settings /flash recovery - Flash official Recovery (grant Root-Permission) - this flashes Stock Recovery in half a second.
3) Download the Full Firmware (no OTA.zip) for your model, unzipp it on your PC (mostly you get update.app and meta.inf)
4) Create a folder on internal memory or external SD and name it: dload
5) Copy only update.app and meta.inf (if meta.inf is present) in this folder. After DISCONNECT USB from Phone!
6) Reboot to Stock Recovery - with Restart menu (also possible with pressing Vol+ and Power-Button at the same time as long until Recovery is displayed)
7) Wipe Cache with Stock Recovery (it uses another engine than TWRP) and do after a Factory Reset. There is no need to restart the phone to system now.
8) Press Vol- and Vol+ (in the middle) and Power-Button at the same time, until phone reboots and EMUI-Software-Installing is displayed
9) Let the EMUI-Installing finishing - it reboots automatically to system and starts the EMUI-Optimizing - wait until Language-Selection (new setup for you phone) is displayed.
Now you are back on Stock Firmware - Bootloader was automatically closed during Firmware-Installing
You can stay now on Marshmallow or update to Nougat if you like. But note: Once you are on Nougat - the Downgrade to Marshmallow is possible but not recommended (cause people reporting errors after Downgrade)
If you want to stay on Marshmallow and flash another Marshmallow based Custom Rom, continue from step 9 as follow:
9) In this case make just a short set up (You can skip the most) - but it is important to arrive the homescreen.
10) Go to Settings / About the phone and tap 7x (times) on Build-Number. It activates developer options.
11) Go to Developer options and activate USB DEBUGGING - and OEM-UNLOCK - after open Advanced settings /security and activate "Unknown Sources"
12) Connect Phone with USB to your PC (Accept the Fingerprint query with "always" on your Phone) Look, if Windows installed the right drivers so you have access to phone - if not install HiSuite http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/index.html and make a connection with HiSuite. Allow installing HiSuite on Phone. If you have access now, close HiSuite (also in Background).
13) Copy the new Marshmallow based Rom to your Phone.
14) You need your Bootloader-Unlock-Code from Huawei!
15) With Minimal ADB and Fastboot unlock your Bootloader
16) Your phone will wiped with Factory Reset.
17) With Minimal ADB and Fastboot flash TWRP.
18) DISCONNECT USB Cable now from your Phone
19) Press Vol+ and Power-Button at the same Time until phone reboot (at the moment, Huawei Logo comes you can leave Power Button, but keep holding Vol+ until TWRP is displayed) - Reboot to TWRP takes a while
20) Set up TWRP (allow modification, set language, screen timeout, time zone...)
21) There is no need to wipe internal SD (but if you like to do this, do it at first and restart after TWRP - then you must setup TWRP again)
22) Go to Wipe, Advanced Wipe and wipe: Dalvik&Cache, Cache, data and system
23) Install the new Rom
24) Restore User-Apps, but dont restore any System-Apps (or data from it) Chat-Apps install from Playstore, and use the built-in restore function.
Huawei-Firmware-List:
Use only Marshmallow Full Firmware to retourn from NewWorld to Stock (mostly b182 or b181). Choose the right one for your model and cust! As far as I know all versions over 300 are based on Nougat (those you cannot use)
EVA-L09: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-l09
For EVA-L09 - I would recommend following Firmware: http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/11/download-huawei-p9-b182-marshmallow-update-europe/
EVA-L19: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-l19
EVA-L29: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-l29
EVA-TL00: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-tl00
EVA-ALxx: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-AL (not sure, but maybe work on CL and DL variants)

Hello Thanks for informing me. Nobody told me in the German Thread, that's why I didn't know.
I always use the manual call recording and have not tested the automatic one. I make a test today in the evening and tell you!
Is there anyway to install this on a EVA-L09C34 (Optus/Australia) model.
It was hard for me to go to the german forum and regisster, post etc..... I am glad you moved here...... U`ll have more support, u`ll see...
Also I am happy that someone still works on this rom. It is the best and most complete rom for P9 .

This rom should work with all L09 variants, the C34 is pretty much the carrier model, so C34 means Optus and I think Vodaphone Australia also has a different carrier model. Ultimately, L09 all have the exactly same hardware.
Vielen Dank!
I downloaded this from android-hilfe.de last week (with the help of Google Translate!). An excellent rom and a worthy successor to @Blackball 's fine efforts. No obvious bugs or glitches that I can see, runs very smoothly.
Can't wait for your efforts with Nougat!

I have tested it on my phone right now and it works in NW 6.6 - and also NW7
You must open Dialer and there the menu symbol right below.
Open settings, in there enable record settings (see Screenshot)
If you call somebody or get calls it will automatically record the calls to external SD in the folder record
Test it again please. If it doesn't work for you, tell me.

Hello Thanks for the positive message!
I am working on the Nougat Version.
There are a few impairments at the moment:
TWRP for Nougat doesn't support data encryption yet...
The Google Security Level is very high.. Difficult to manipulate some processes..
Xposed Framework is not released yet for Nougat. Hopefully @rovo89 can get it work for Nougat...
KangVs Framework is working already on Nougat, K-Settings working - but modifications are only possible in system and boot, Root with SuperSU is possible - Manipulations on cust or vendor in the moment not.
The development is in progress

Hi Themes should work. I flashed even from b182 and Themes are working.
Same issue had one Person of the German Thread.
Please check the MD5 on Filehost (I post it later in OP)
Make wipe of Dalvik and Cache, restart TWRP and flash the Rom again please.
Edit :
Before you should go to the folder HWThemes on internal Memory. There is a hidden folder .cache - delete everything in it. Backup in the HWThemes folder the .hwt files you want to store. Store it on another place on external SD. Delete every .hwt in HWThemes on internal Memory.
I don't know, why this issue sometimes occurs, cause normally it does not.
Please inform me.

I have the same cust and was on b182, flashed the Rom and Themes working...
I don't think, its an issue of cust.
I believe it is a problem of TWRP.
If I make a Nandroid Backup and flashed after wiping immediately the Rom, TWRP has sometimes problems to unmount and remount partitions.
This produce then an error in the shown install script (system or data couldn't unmounted, they are busy - something like that...)
The Themes are in this Rom not located in /system/themes (there are just the icons to save place of system Rom)
The Themes are in /data/Hw_init/system/themes
If TWRP produce an error in mounting data after doing something before flashing the Rom, then Themes don't work cause the files were not copied as they should.
That's why I recommend to Reboot TWRP before flashing the Rom.
This was also the reason by a German User from Android Hilfe Thread.
He flashed the Rom again, and with the second flashing, Themes are working..
Edit: if you have flashed cust C432 it could be that the Phone Manager loose some parts like Permission Manager, Autostart Manager and so on?
