Good morning Everyone
I have an Mate 8 L09C605 (Latin America) and i am trying to change its region to C432 (Europe) but it is impossible to find the oeminfo and custom.bin
Could someone share those files from the C432 please?
With all those rom players i guess there is a lot of backups out there... should not be so difficult to find
Thanks a lot.
Me too. Please help us. Thank you
Cust international (normal) = C900 OTA LOSS but you should be able to install rom from any region
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update running
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update OK. Now i am L09C900B320
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The only thing I can not remember is how I am switched to L09C900B100 ... too much manipulation with SRK Tool among others with the change of region.
But it seems to me that it is doing as follows:
1- Full backup with TWRP -Before to change region-
2- Reboot
3- Region change (SRK Tool)
4- Restore TWRP Backup
5- Reboot (it seems to me that at this moment I found myself in L09C900B100, my starting Rom was L09C605B100 (Latin America). So if your starting Rom is a B180 for example, you should end up with L09C900B180.
THEN...
1- Create dload on SDCard with UPPDATE.APP (in my case from L09C432B320)
2- Restore Huawei recovery (SRK Tool)
3- Launch update * # * # 2846579 # * # *
4- Install TWRP EMUI 4.1 (SRK tool)
7- Root with TWRP
8- Reboot

Here you will find a following entries:

Cust international (normal) = C900 OTA LOSS but you should be able to install rom from any region

First of all, thank you for spending your precious time writing out the instructions for us.
I followed exactly as your instruction; however, at the end, when I checked About Phone in Settings, my phone is L29C432B320 instead of L09C432B320. This is why I need the OEMINFO and CUSTOM.BIN file for L09C432B320. Thank you
Before to change the region (that gave you the L29), have you done the TWRP backup? While you where still in L09?
Oops! I don't think I did. Do you think that could be the case? BTW, how do you like C432 stock firmware? Is it any better than C636? Thank you
Yes i think that is thé reason. C432 or C636 are not firmware but région. Thé firmware i had was B100 ans now i am with B320. So far m'y phone is faster even without doing any Factory reset. But for stability ans battery life, i can't say yet.
I Guess you could be back to L09 by changing with Srk Tool the buildprop things, but better check with specialists on the fórum.
Thank you, platajeret.
I went back to L09C636B191
backup System with TWRP (for some reasons, TWRP wouldn't lemme backup Data)
reboot
changed Region
reboot
restored Backup in TWRP
dload L09C432B192
I still get L29C432B192 after all was done. So frustrated.

There is hw/eu and hw/ru (and other) regions location.
What is the difference between them and help please to choose proper location and firmware.
ru location have 172 firmware, eu - 170. KangVIP - 170 based.
Previously was AL10 cn
Elseone: which item must be flashed first (or not important?) - location file or firmware ?
Hello,
I have AL10C00B182 ROM - ota upgrade after start use the phone.
Now I have two question:
Can I upgrade from AL10C00B182 to B353 without any other upgrades (dload method)?
Thank!
since u got the OTA to B182, im guessing ure on full stock with locked bootload and no root so in that case, installation of B353 via dload method is no problem. enjoy!
Thank you.
Now I'm on 353 (AL10) with unlocked bootloader.
I'll instal TWPR (EMUI 4.1) with decryption support and them what..?
1. install superSU
2. Have to I do wipe system or with decryption support is not nesesery?
Clean ROM with root is all I need Maybe KangVIP
hello,
May I ask how did you update your AL10C00B182 to B353?
I just had the phone for 2 days and tried checking for updates, but no updates so far.
Thank you.

wellit depends what u want. if u want to stay on B353 stock and u only want root, flashing supersu is enough. otherwise go ahead and flash kangvip slim via twrp, it comes prerooted so you should be fine

- copy the UPDATE.APP to the internal memory in a folder called - dload (you may have to create it),
- power off phone,
- press [volume+]+ [volume-]+[power] together to force the update,
- done

Thanks for the reply bodzio3333,
I shall do it this way later on. But, why do we have to check the region code? I'm having the same country info as yours.

Nice job man, i love your tool :good:

Nice toolkit, just download it for future use.
Have anyone tried it yet?
All steps including getting the bootloader code to unlock -> twrp -> Root systemless?
Will this break OTA updates?
Magisk is impossible for Honor 8 It seems so hope anyone get this to work before I take the plunge

It works for L09, i have tried it. It will not break OTA but u cant install OTA when you are on TWRP. U need to install stock recovery before upgrade OTA.

Tried to get the bootcode but no matter how I enter it it just says
"Please fill in the correct identification code; please check the product type is entered correctly, if it is more IMEI / MEID phone, use a different IMEI or MEID retry"
I guess I will have to wait until there is a better way to unlock this phone in the future.

The site is not working, use Dc Unlocker to unlock bootloader.
Sent from my HUAWEI VIE-L29 using XDA Labs
Got the bootloader code by following the English site, not the steps in the guide in the tool because that does not work.
Unlocked, TWRP, rooted and Xposed installed now. Everything working perfect
The only thing that sucks is that I cannot use Unicon because SuperSU is systemless, and I guess I will brick the phone If i try and install an older version according to what I read.
Hope Unicon gets an update in the future or something ! Need to change icons and names with stock launcher.

Hi.
This sounds promising.
Unfortunately I have the Honor Note 8 (EDI-AL10) which does not appear to be supported.
Can you add support for it?
I assume it would require a TWRP version for it to exist already, though, right?
As far as i've seen thats not the case yet.

Hi i tried all the afternoon into change my honor8 AL00 into L09-432. it looked to be done but after following all steps it was just a FRD(nothing) in the system info menu. then i tried to go back to AL00 but was really difficoult. I made a lot of attemps and finally I did it. After this I wanted to relock the bootloader to hide the orange writes bootscreen "your phone is now untrasted......etc....." cause i want to sell it under warranty but in the end it powered on with a RED WRITES bootscreen "your phone is untrasted and may not work correctly.....etc...." and stopped to boot in a screen where it say to type the password to decrypt the storage. I tried with bootloader psw and it say it's ok but have to do a wipe reset. after wipe reset it power on again with RED WRITES bootscreen "your phone is untrasted and may not work correctly.....etc...." and stopped again the boot on the screen where it say to type the password to decrypt the storage. it was a loop. then I decided to unlock bootloader again and after this it booted normally but still the the orange writes bootscreen "your phone is now untrasted......etc....." so I can't sell it under warranty. Is there a solution for that all?
Thanks

[Guide] [XT16XX] [Solve] G4+ Baseband/Network/Volte issue, Lost 1 IMEI & fingerprint
Important:
If you have IMEI=0, then this is the wrong thead. Follow this: [Guide] [XT16XX] [Solve] Moto G4/Plus IMEI=0 issue
This method is only tested on Nougat for now, for Oreo, new files will be needed.
Code:
#include <disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now.......(wait a minute)........still valid?
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices.
* YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point
* your finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
This thread addresses the following problems:
Baseband version changed to some other country
Sim card getting detected, but no network
Both sims having a network but VoLTE doesn't work
G4 Plus turned to G4, i.e phone just shows one IMEI and no fingerprint
This method is only for the retail models of Moto G4/Plus, it may or may not work on any other models.
All of these issues have a common reason,
The modem files for your device has been corrupted/has some issue or have been changed to some other country.
Voltes isn't working since your baseband is of some other country and not Indian. If you have Indian baseband and still Volte doesn't work, then your modem files have been corrupted/ have some issues.
You have to push the modem, hw, fsg files for your own device.
We already had a thread addressing this issue, but it didn't have modem files for all baseband.
Finally, thanx to our fellow Moto G4 Plus users, for providing these files, we now have hw, modem, fsg files for all the five basebands i.e BRAZIL, LATAM, EMEA, INDIAN, and RETUSA.

Note: These files are extracted from the dual-SIM variant of Moto G4 Plus, so if you flash these on your Moto G4, these will work, but your device name will be changed to Moto G4 Plus (everything will still work fine, just your device will be treated as Moto G4 Plus by all apps) and if you flash these images on single SIM Moto G4 Plus, it will still work.
Pre-requisites:
You must be on Stock Nougat 7.0 (latest version preferred)
You must be rooted (install Elemental-X kernel first and then flash Magisk otherwise you will have boot issues)
Terminal app or adb drivers in PC/Laptop (I wouldn't recommend TWRP (official or unofficial as it has issues flashing hw.img)
Step 1: Download files
Download and place these files in your /sdcard directory.
/sdcard is the same as the Internal storage directory. Do not confuse it with micro Sdcard as it has its directory named as /external_sd
Step 2: Flash the files
Note: The below commands are to be typed in a terminal app or adb shell.
Q) How to type in adb shell?
A) Open command prompt in the folder where you have adb and fastboot installed and type:
Code:
adb shell
So lets start now!
Code:
su
This command it to get root access for the terminal/shell. Grant the root access and you will see that the $ symbol is replaced with # symbol which means that root access has been granted.
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/modem.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modem
dd if=/sdcard/fsg.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/fsg
dd if=/sdcard/hw.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/hw
Step 3: Flash the latest Stock ROM (April 2018)
That's it. After flashing, reboot and check your baseband. You would be on the baseband which you flashed in step 2.
Indian users, you will see INDIAN baseband if you flashed the files for it, and Volte would work.
Flash the latest Stock ROM from here: Stock N Firmware [Apr 01 Security Patch][fastboot]

Thank you for this guide, but unfortunately it didn't work. When I pushed the hw image my phone stop responding and I have to force a reboot with the power buttom. I will give up on this issue for now on. Thank you again.
I attached a logcat in case you can find something that could give an anwser about what happens after i push the hw img
Do I have to be on stock ROM for this to work? Can't it work when I'm on a custom ROM?
What happened was I flashed the latest arrow os build, which was faulty. I then clean flashed crdroid. After reboot, sim isn't working, and imei isn't showing anything. I restored my persist partition, with no result.
Any help?
Wow after Restoring Indian Baseband Volte works now.
Thanks Sir.

There are a few more ways to make this work, so its too early to give up.
Are you on the latest Stock ROM (April 2018)? You need to be on the latest stock firmware for this to work as the files are extracted from the latest stock firmware.
1. Flash Stock ROM (latest version - April 2018) once again.
2. Flash official TWRP (I repeat official TWRP only).
3. Then go in Terminal of TWRP (Settings>Terminal), and then repeat step 2, but this time no need to type "su" command.
Edit: @sxbino, now that I have learnt a little to read logs, it appears that the logs doesn't contain anything about flashing those files.
Please collect logs from adb using the command:
Code:
adb logcat>log.log
This will start collecting and saving logs in a file named "log" which will be saved in the same folder where you have adb.
If you are using PC/Laptop to push the files, you can open 2 terminal/command prompt windows, one to collect logs and other to flash the files.
But is missing Brazil baseband.
I'm from Brazil and change mine for LATAM.
Does anyone have this files?

Right now, we haven't been able to get modem files for BRAZILIAN baseband. Will add them in the Google Drive link once they are available from fellow Brazilian users.
Edit: @edjalmo, BRAZILIAN modem files are now available.

You may try if you'd like to. It just didn't work for me(flashing/pushing those files on custom ROM) so I am asking to be on stock ROM.
All of the 64-bit Pie ROMs are causing this error. The developers are working hard to fix it.
I would recommend flash stock ROM. No need to worry about losing IMEI after flashing stock as now it is recoverable, the only condition is you should not try to restore somebody else's persist or efs partitions.

ArrowOS is causing some problem with efs partition. The developer Lyuu is working hard to fix it.
I would recommend flash sSock ROM. No need to worry about losing IMEI after flashing stock as now it is recoverable, the only condition is you should not try to restore somebody else's persist or efs partitions.

Somehow, I clean flashed crdroid again, this time restoring the efs partition right after ROM flash. Now my sim is working. Silly me
Update: BRAZLIAN modem files are now available and have been added to the drive link. OP has been updated.

@edjalmo, Please report back whether they worked or not. I have 2 pairs of modem files. If this one didn't work, I will upload the second pair of files.

The ArrowOS also broke the imei of my smartphone, I have tried everything but nothing, I hope that the developer of ArrowOS get a solution!

This thread addresses the following problems:
Baseband version changed to some other country
Sim card getting detected, but no network
Both sims having a network but Volte doesn't work
G4 Plus turned to G4, i.e phone just shows one IMEI and no fingerprint
This method is only for the retail models of Moto G4/Plus, it may or may not work on any other models.
All of these issues have a common reason,
The modem files for your device has been corrupted/has some issue or have been changed to some other country.
Voltes isn't working since your baseband is of some other country and not Indian. If you have Indian baseband and still Volte doesn't work, then your modem files have been corrupted/ have some issues.
You have to push the modem, hw, fsg files for your own device.
We already had a thread addressing this issue, but it didn't have modem files for all baseband.
Finally, thanx to our fellow Moto G4 Plus users, for providing these files, we now have hw, modem, fsg files for all four basebands i.e LATAM, EMEA, BRAZIL, and INDIAN.
Here is the link to the files: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1NtOTKgmJIP_Ys26CYd9KBdwhWdGfbCqH
Download modem, fsg, hw files according to your baseband.
Note: These files are extracted from the dual-SIM variant of Moto G4 Plus, so if you flash these on your Moto G4, these will work, but your device name will be changed to Moto G4 Plus (everything will still work fine, just your device will be treated as Moto G4 Plus by all apps) or if you flash these images on single SIM Moto G4 Plus, it will still work.
Pre-requisites:
You must be on Stock Nougat 7.0
You must be rooted (install Elemental-X kernel first and then flash Magisk otherwise you will have boot issues)
Terminal app or adb drivers in PC/Laptop (I wouldn't recommend TWRP (official or unofficial as it has issues flashing hw.img)
Step 1: Download files
Download and place these files in your /sdcard directory.
/sdcard is the same as the Internal storage directory. Do not confuse it with micro Sdcard as it has its directory named as /external_sd
Step 2: Flash the files
Note: The below commands are to be typed in a terminal app or adb shell.
Q) How to type in adb shell?
A) Open command prompt in the folder where you have adb and fastboot installed and type:
Code:
adb shell
So lets start now!
Code:
su
This command it to get root access for the terminal/shell. Grant the root access and you will see that the $ symbol is replaced with # symbol which means that root access has been granted.
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/modem.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1
dd if=/sdcard/fsg.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16
dd if=/sdcard/hw.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p43
Step 3: Flash the latest Stock ROM (April 2018)
That's it. After flashing, reboot and check your baseband. You would be on the baseband which you flashed in step 2.
Indian users, you will see INDIAN baseband if you flashed the files for it, and Volte would work.

I do not understand where to enter the commands, can you explain more detailed? does this also work for IMEI = 0?

Nope, if you have IMEI=0, go to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-moto-g4-plus-imei0-issue-t3859068
If there is any problems like baseband/network after restoring IMEI, come to this thread.
Update: RETUSA modem files are now available and have been added to the drive link. OP has been updated.
I just installed the files of the Brazilian version, they worked perfectly in the g4 xt1626, only the part of tv does not appear because my model is the version no plus, but the baseband is now correct, brazilian version. I just have to thank Heeth21, his job in keeping a baseband database and etc is phenomenal, will help a lot of people.
Hello colleagues, what are the differences between the WW vs CN software version? Is it possible to change from WW to CN to WW without any problems?
