Honor 8 model number changed in service - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hello Guys,
My Honor 8 was arrived from the service, but the official Hungarian Service Center was ruined something. My model number is changed, and I can't download and install the Android 7 to my FRD-L09 Honor 8. The new model number is just simply FRD. What should I do?

No you don't need root or unlock bootloader. It's from their website. Be case full though. The firmwares on the website look confusing. Don't flash wrong region firmware or for other model. You better download the packages from here. If you have doubt ask which one you need to download.
Thanks...how to know which region if not indicated in phone

ok, so no way to add the band 800 MHZ on a Chinese honor 8? even with the root?
I have another question.
If I have a warranty problem with my Chinese honor8, I must refer to the Chinese vendor or I can arrange me directly with international honor8?

It can't bee added by root, as bands are related to hardware (antenna inside the phone)

When buying from China, usually they sell it with international warranty, meaning you can take it to any customer service.
(Or at least that is what I was told by the shop lady couple of years back)

No Internationell warranty on Huawei, if u live in Belgium u need to buy it from a seller that will send it from a EU Country and then u will have warranty on it, there are a lot of Chinese seller that dispatch it from EU.

In my opinion, if you care about warranty, just buy it from EU

[NXT-AL10] update to Nougat and EMUI 5.0

Hi guys,
I have just bought a mate 8 nxt-al10 (chinese version, unlocked) two weeks ago on Priceminister, and i've recently seen that the mate 8 received the nougat and emui 5.0 update... My friend got the same phone, but in TL00 version (chinese version too but locked for chinese carriers) and she got the update.....whereas I cannot​ get it me! In settings tray, when I tap on "check for updates", the phone return to me "no update avaible", whereas I'm sure that my friend has Android 7.0 with emui 5.0..
I live in France and I received my phone with an international rom, NXT-C900B170, already configured at the unboxing.
Can I have help to get the update please?
Thanks
toXa
C900 most likely means that your phone was crossflashed with an international firmware for the L29 variant of the phone. in this state, u wont be able to receive OTA updates, so ull either have to flash an original AL10 firmware or change your regional cust to an L29 variant.
Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-AL10 using Tapatalk
Thx for your reply
Okay thanks... And how can I change the cust to L29 directly or AL10 (and then flash an european rom after)? Whitch is the better method?
Sent from my HUAWEI NEXT using XDA Labs
I tried to flash an AL10 firmware, the last released, via Firmware Finder, but when I try to flash it, the phone returns that the package is uncompatible.. I suppose that the last chance is to change the cust?
Sent from my HUAWEI NEXT using XDA Labs
for changing cust, u can use the so called SRK tool, you can find it in one of the mate 8 sub sections
Okay thanks
I will try it soon, I keep you informed
Sent from my HUAWEI NEXT using XDA Labs
Hi,
I just have finished to unlock the bootloader and I have a question.. will I receive OTA updates if I flash L29 rom?
Where can I find a L29 rom? Can firmware finder do the job?
Hello friend toXaGeek
I have seen your comments and I am in the same situation as your cell phone.
You can please share if you came to solve what you were talking about.
Please, if so. Please detail what you have done, I am asking you this because I am new to this and I am going to flash my equipment
Thank you very much for your help.
Greetings.

Im in the same dish as you boss, can i install a nougat global firmware on a NXT-L29C900B156 ?

Help after downgrade FRD-L09

Hello kind people of XDA,
I recently acquired an Honor 8 L09 64gb variant, after downgrading it from N to MM following this guide my model number has changed from FRD-L09 to FRD and my build number is FRD-C675B140.
I am wondering what this means in terms of upgrades etc. Has my phone been rebranded or is it still an L09 just not showing as that in the settings.
Is it possible to upgrade it back to N, if it is how would I go about doing that? If it helps, the phone rooted with Magisk.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
I used the EU rollback L09 is the EU version, isn't it? Would I still look for L09 in Firmware Finder?

I really doubt that changing hicare app region will make a difference it is only a app where changing country you can see local service centers, local help phone number to call and so on.
'Update' channel is tied to the phone model number and model number is tied to the region -
* China(gets the fastest updates)
* India(2nd fastest)
* Then EU and US

I don't think so
I personally experience that I got the update always when I changed my country from Hicare and settings
I checked multiple times with Germany,India etc but didn't get the update
Whenever I switched to China , I got the update
It can be because my phone model is Chinese variant but my update is pending due to change in country and when I switched back so gets the pending update
Update your Hicare App top newest Version. Change your Region to India. You get Android 10.
My Honor View 20 is from Germany
