L19C432 forced update to B182 (updated 2016-10-22)

I thought you will be interested. I was stuck with B161. Took a risk. I have downloaded FULL L09C432B180 firmware from Huawei servers and revoked update with dialer.
The result - successful update, no data lost, no factory reset, the same dual sim L19C432B180 with all latest stuff on it
Seems it just has to be the same C432 as my device still L19, even it took update from L09 this time.
PS. I am sure OTA B180 file will break your device, Full only!
Update: to B182 > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69250625&postcount=22 Tested, working fine.
Link for C185: to B180 > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69386442&postcount=36

I confirm its working just fine on L19 432 model. Thanks a lot for sharing your finding.

Can you please share the link to the right file?
thx

Important - C432 only, better do not try this on other C's, it won't work.

Well, I did it successfully from B161. As B180 is full firmware, I think. But can't be sure, it is your own risk.

I just tried few hours ago (from EVA-L19 C432B166 to EVA-L19 C432 B180 using full ROM EVA-L09 C432B180).
All works fine.

Could you please point me or write down some how to the right steps to try it, ?? One question, I don't have my phone rooted or bootloader unlocked, do I need something about that?? If not, after the update, will be everything the same?? Same stock bootloader, recovery, no root, etc. ??

Nevermind, already found the answer ??.. thx!!

In very short steps:
Download a Full firmware, extract zip.
Create a folder named dload in SD card.
Put update.app file into it.
Dial *#*#2846579#*#*
Choose option 4 - Software upgrade

Sorry to disappoint you, but it is your error. The file I posted is for C432 only, so you can't use it on your C185. C number match is a must, only L09 or L19 has no difference when updating from Full firmware file.
I have checked Huawei servers, there is no newer firmware for C185 than B170. It is the latest, both OTA and FULL.

It works fine updating from EVA-L19C432B166 ! Thanks you !

Well.. since yesterday, I meet a good few of bugs. I hope it's temporary. I'll do an edit in a few days to confirm, or not, my feelings.
EDIT : Okay, so it's not exclusive for the B180, forget this.

Let us know. Because I have not noticed anything wrong at all. Maybe it is inside the firmware, as it is an official one, and will be fixed in a future.

Hi all !
I have an eva-l19 and I was on B166 received by ota, but downgraded to B161, because of that annoying message telling me what to do with current call when receiving other call (call waiting feature activated). Could someone tell me if that "feature" apears in version B180 ?
Thanks !

How to update MHA-L29C185B172?

Hello!
I see update MHA-L29C185B172, but not on FF. I want this update.

Thanks. Sorry for my English.

I don't know what is new. It says no changelog. It says funkyhuawei reddit page:
<<The unreleased MHA-L29C185B172 build has been added to FunkyHuawei. An accurate changelog has not yet been released, but the expected differences are better touchscreen response, and less power consumption for longer battery life, similar to the Chinese B173 build.
Even if you have another Mate 9 model, you can rebrand to MHA-L29C185 and install the firmware, with FunkyHuawei.>>
But trying one day battery time maybe is improved. Here is screenshots.

So far this is working nice firmware. Battery inside one day before was finish 30% but yesterday was with 75%.
What is everybody result?

Hi guys! How is the performance and battery life of this update B172? Thanks!

hi everyone.
two questions:
1: what is FF? is it another repository for firmwares? any links?
2: also, i don't understand the disapproval regarding fu***wei.. I tried installing TWRP on my Mate 9.. ended up almost bricking it.. (it was stuck in a bootloop and adb showed it as unauthorized.. I didn't know what todo)
I used the fu***wei method and although it was a little cumbersome.. (had to do it at home so I could modify the modem settings etc.)
it actually totally worked.. (took a while but it worked) The guy was super responsive too. (I guess I go thte time zones aligned just right to ask my questions but yeah, he'd respond within minutes of my e-mails..)
(btw, I came to this forum looking exactly for this model MHA-L29C185 I wish there were clearer instructions on how to do these things without paying etc but if there is a resource like this why knock it? i'm seriously curious)

Flash MHA-AL29 on MHA-AL00..is it possible?

Hello Everyone,
I have just bought a Huawei mate 9 from AliExpress, and they didnt specify if it was Chinese or International Rom.
But upon delivery i saw some Chinese text, and when i checked the Build number, it is MHA-AL00C00B175.
Can i flash the International version (i.e the AL29) firmware on my phone so that i can eliminate all these chinese apps etc ?
Thanks in advance

I think yes, one of my friend did from here - https://www.obeygeek.com/download-huawei-mate-9-official-7-0-nougat-update-mha-l29-l09/

I think you were misinformed, you can't just flash any models firmware over your chinese model (thats why it fails), you can only "rebrand" using the guides linked below, which requires unlock bootloader.
Flash Latest Update/Rebrand Guide: (Has lots of choices for rebranding, can go to different regional specific firmware such as USA, Europe, Asia, etc)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
Unbrick and Rebrand Guide: (Only 2 choices, MHA-L29C636 International/Asian (comes with Play Store and no Chinese apps) or MHA-AL00 Chinese)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-rebrand-chinese-al00-mate9-to-t3554656

I'd stick with the Chinese one. It has a few more features and gets updated more often. The few Chinese programs are mostly removable as well.

You can rebrand with also OTA . I am done follow this link it perfect.
[rebrand from c636 to AL00 and rebrand from AL00 to C432.]

Update to Android 11 with Developer file upgrade.

Good evening,
as I seen it is available directly from the developers portal the firmware upgrade for the Android 11 (Q) for the Find X2 Pro: https://fsopen.coloros.com/3/oppoww...0_all_Hzht983dYbQW-format-findx2pro-2-ex.ozip
The issue I have is about the package, I download it many times also with a download manager but when via file manager I launch it, the package results corrupt.
Someone tested already that way?
Cheers,

You don't want this beta trust me it's an earlie build with tones of bugs and a unusable keyboard there's no point, if you want android 11 asap go to coloros/ROM , website, and in stall the latest Pakistan ROM A.45 then go to XDA and look for the thread that has the region change oppo tool and follow instructions to get android 11 as an ota, you must install that Pakistan version first

It only doesn't work on Chinese versions, there's a fix for people who can't get that OK, should be under that region thread or the update thread
After I changed my region a few times the ok stopped appearing for me so I would have to go back and disable my ethernet adaptor and make a new one or something lol, I'm not to sure yet because I haven't bothered trying yet
