It's possible if you unlock the bootloader.
As L09 is the single SIM version of the Mate 9, does it get full dual SIM functionality with the L29 firmware?

Good morning, any news about this? Is possible consider to upgrade the firmware to the MHA-L29 to obtain full dual sim functionality? Someone has tried this way?

You can flash with a dual SIM capable firmware but the second slot will not be usable. Your device only has one IMEI assigned, not two.

Hi,
ok then there's any possibility to use the MHA-L09 with a MHA-L29 firmware and two SIM? I thought that the limitation between the two phones was only the fw!

Again, your L09 device only has one IMEI assigned from factory, not two. Flashing L29 will still not allow you to use slot #2 as your device was never assigned a second IMEI to begin with, it will simply show as non existent (all zeros), ie unusable.

If someone fix this, I am in too This single sim sucks... Another question is, slot used at L09 is meant only for one sim and memory card. There is no way how to place another sim. From HW point of view, there may be not HW interface for 2nd sim, but I doubt that Huawei would produce two types of boards...
I checked the SIM tray on my MHA-L09 and I don't see how one would put 2 SIMs there ?? Not possible.

pity is, that they didn't assign imei for second slot. I was able to make dualsim from P8 lite and Honor 7, but they have 2nd imei despite both bought as single sim.
Please refrain from any chat and discussion on changing the IMEI, even for restoration purposes. It is illegal and we do not allow discussion of it on XDA.

Once again, you can convert L09 to L29, you can buy a dual SIM tray, but the second SIM slot will NOT work as it doesn't have any IMEI assigned. It's a dead end.
The only "fix" is buying a dual SIM model next time.

Spoofing an IMEI is illegal, reverse engineering the board is unfeasible. You're beating a dead horse.

Hello.
Suspecting that the hardware of the L09 and L29 would be the same, I wanted to test if it would work as dualsim a L09 with a Rom of L29. So I did the rebranding by installing the L29C636. I had bought a tray porta for dualsim, I got 2 cards and the 2 works perfectly, even though the second IMEI is all zeros. One of the cards uses the vodafone network and the other one of movistar, I have tried the 2 like Sim1 and Sim2, and they work without distinction.
proof pls, where did you buy tray for dualsim ?

A bit false. Currently have the L04 and it has dual sim. Getting the L09 will have more bands for Europe and L04 has more bands for the US. That's the key difference. Other than that it's basically the same phone.

I tested it once to see how it all worked and I can at least confirm that it works. The only downside was that I was not used picking which sim to make calls from or send messages from. Neat feature but not a necessity for me

Maybe cause the phone was made for millennials. Like they said in their announcements! Which means most "teens" who buy the phone will not really care about the second sim card slot cause they won't need them.
No but out of all seriousness they advertised it as one nano sim and one nano sim/ sd card. Just because it has an sd slot in the place of second sim people will probably not even acknowledge it cause well.. let's be honest, more memory is rather nice

I just picked up the FRD-L04 today, and it has a dual SIM tray - the 2nd slot doubles as a Micro SD slot, so you have to choose between two SIM cards and extra storage capacity.

As far as I remember, one owner of honor 8 put two sim cards in his phone (L04), he called the number of the second slot and it did work, but it didn't show up on the phone.

Actually, that is incorrect. The second SIM card slot doubles as a Micro SD slot. From the Honor website:
SIM slot
SIM card 1(Main card): LTE FDD/ TD-LTE/ WCDMA/GSM/EGSM/DCS/PCS;
SIM card 2(Share with microSD card): GSM/EGSM/DCS/PCS
Given that I've already used dual SIM cards in the phone successfully, I'd say your information is incorrect...

I have seen a screenshot in which one user had 2 indian sim cards at the same time how is that possible..?
Its not possible.. Can you share the screenshot?
It's a single sim device. The sim card tray shows a cutout of two sims but the 2nd one doesn't work. You can only use one sim. That other person must have another country's model and must have rebranded his phone as an FRD-L02.

Hi Everyone,
I have a Huawei P20 EML-L09 single sim from the French operator Orange.
I would like to transform it into a dual sim working phone. I didn't find any relevant information's about that, except that i will need to rebrand it.. And now i'm stuck.
Does anyone already do this ?
it seem's that i have to rebrand it into an EML-L29, but I dont know how, where to find tools and images, and also if it will brick the phone or not. Also i'm lost with country codes, mine is C109 .
Many thanks !

You can change your model to EML-L29 (dual SIM) but you will not be able to use the dual SIM because of the hardware.

Hello, are you sure ? Because some post says that it works (it's seem's to be the same hardware).
Do you have a procedure for me ?
You are joking.
Hardware is not the same, on single sim version there is only one sim port. You can check it by taking off the sim tray and looking inside the sim port. You will see only contacts for SD card and for one SIM.
If some post says that it work, pelase go ask author of that post.

Seriously?
this is impossible. Hardware is the same base but totally differrent setup. You can rebrand but that will do nothing but change your model description to another region/model.
Not offending but this is the dumbest question i ever read on xda
The hardware supports dual SIM. You need to buy the dual SIM tray though.
Also, I have rebranded and then changed over to dual SIM using funky Huawei. I was left with a fully functional dual SIM and broken speaker sound volume. It was stuck at 20% and no matter how many resets I did could not get it fixed.
You also loose bootloader unlock using Funky Huawei. I luckily had my phone replaced under warranty...

You have to have root to fix it and you have to keep root, there's no other way. This fix was able to get my LE2115 data when I flashed it to ColorOS.
I ended up trading in my LE2115 for a LE2110, which was shipped flashed with Indian firmware for the dual-SIM.
My LE2110 has both T-Mobile and Verizon ("US Mobile" MVNO) SIMs, both 5G and VoLTE. Speeds aren't as great as US-variant phones, due to using more congested bands.

What MrSteelX is saying is if the software you flashed to your phone is the India version or the EU version your phone will think it is the India or EU model of the phone and those phones have dual sim. This causes the issue. You need to flash your phone back to the TMobile software or the global software.
It doesn't matter what method you used to do this it's the software you put on the phone that is making it think it is dual sim and causing your issue.

Every version you listed with the exception of c.63 is for either the EU hardware or the India hardware.
c.63 might be for global but I'm not sure. The problem here is you've converted your phone to EU/India. If you're rooted there are some fixes you can flash via magisk otherwise flash the tmobile software back to the phone.
I'm using a North American TMobile OnePlus9 myself and it says its up to date at version c.20 and I'm not getting the dual sim issue so I would suggest finding c.20 and flashing that to the phone.
