Hi everyone,
I hace bought a international version of mate 8 form a friend who went europe. I have the NXT-L29C185B103 firmware. In Türkiye we have to register our imei to passport, but sometimes people copy imei's of other devices. My device has first imei of a benq a70 and a second imei of Nokia 5210 Can this be the reason for OTA update not working? Has anyone got the update from OTA?
Hi, I haven't received the OTA update either so I installed the update found on these forums and it's working well. I've seen databases list imei numbers before that appear to being to older phones. I don't think that would stop you getting the update.

Try also with Chinese ROMs.
There is a possibility that having those non-original IMEIs you will never be able to update or flash: but why the IMEIs have been changed?

The original IMEI's were not registered. In Türkiye, if you bring a phone from outside, you have to register it to your passport. Some people bring phones in their pockets to sell without the registration. If you can find someone to register you can. Or you can copy old phones IMEI numbers to trick the registry. I bought this Mate 8 this way.
So you don't even know which were your 2 original IMEIs? Do you have the original Mate 8 box?
Do you know how these "old" IMEIs were inputted into your Mate 8? Maybe this operation corrupted some critical configurations...
Anyway, please remember that changing the original IMEI is not a legal activity and this subject and related involvements might not be appreciated by the moderators.

Thanks for the reminder. I will try to solve the problem
I am trying to reverse engineer deeper into how OTA update authentication works. I'm hoping that someone who got this update from Huawei via OTA (without using FunkyHuawei) can send me a PM with their primary and secondary IMEIs. Thanks in advance.
Thanks Duraaraa for your support.
I live in Italy. When i receive the update (ota), I'll send you my primary and secondary IMEI.

Hi , Duraaraa
you know how's huawei generate signed and cert that returned when authentication? or the way to re-generated it.
Thank you.

It's done with Huawei's private key. It's not possible to re-generate it, unless you find Huawei's private key. Perhaps you can become a ninja and infiltrate Huawei to find it?

I will PM them in few mins, now that I am back to B126 and no OTA. (Europe, Croatia, for Croatian market)
---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------
PM sent
also I have tried again eRecovery without FH DNS and Huawei still doesn't provide way to recover your phone if in Europe

Done. No ota at the moment.
@duraaraa
OTA and full package just allowed for my IMEI that you have in PM. I checked like one hour ago nothing and now suddenly it is allowed.
Downloading right now.

I just confirmed. C432B138 is now being signed by Huawei for all IMEIs.
The same thing happened with B126, where there was an early rollout, and a late rollout.
I can make sure that everyone can get the update with the early rollout for the next update by using FunkyHuawei, but unfortunately, I did not capture the non-encoded IMEI of a phone approved for early rollouts, so I was not able to look into it deeper. Hopefully someone who received the early rollout will share next time
Sorry if this has been mentioned but I wanted to confirm my fully converted China AL00 to L29 has just received B138 OTA, I'm so happy Thank you duraaraa for all your help.

Great. That's the first confirmation of a successful OTA update after rebranding, so it's good to know it works as expected.
I think those who rebrand to Europe will not get the early rollout (unless they use FunkyHuawei to get it), but will get the OTA when the full rollout happens. Then, there are a few with a magic IMEI which are approved to install the updates earlier. I am trying to figure out the logic behind that, but I need more information. I have found a skeleton key for the C636 region, though.
hopefully C432B15x is already in works and you'll get some info from someone with magic IMEIs soon .
thanks again.

Indeed, let's hope so. I also hope for a LON-L29C432 build to be signed, but I've seen nothing from that yet. Nor have I seen any way to get MHA-L09C432 signed.
I'm interested in the US model and Alexa, as well.

Hello Duraara and thanks for figuring it out. Can you advise why many users did not received B138 for C432 version? Is there any dependency that blocks it?

Combination of IMEI and sim card.

Interesting. Should I try using another SIM from same country or just wait till Huawei will release it for my IMEI?
What's also interesting some folks reporting having B138 notification but not anymore.

I don't know whether another SIM will help, and I also don't know if Huawei will ever release it for your phone. It's all up to Huawei. I have an exploit that lets me offer it to all phones, but in developing the exploit I was not able to determine exactly what causes Huawei to push the update to a phone or to not push it, unfortunately.
So the B138 update is slowly running out?
If so, the will those who used Funky Huawei to flash, recover phone receive it?
Thx

It can't be known for sure. It depends on Huawei, and which phones they decide to push it to, and under which circumstances.
Hi folks - I'm a first time poster here, so go easy on me
I bought a second hand Honor 6X (BLN-L21) last week. It had Android 6 on it so naturally I checked to see if Android 7 was available for it. It was, but not by checking in-phone for OTA updates. I used the steps on this site STechGuide, perhaps in a bit of a rush...
So the upgrade process said it had failed after about 20 minutes. But after it rebooted it was indeed on Android 7.0 and EMUI 5, but now shows the Build Number as "NRD90M test-keys" and I cannot get it to check for updates. Also now each time I restart the phone I get a message saying "Your device has failed verification and may not work properly".
If I go into the 'eRecovery' settings, it connects to my home wifi and it fails to get package info and all I can do is reboot it.
So in short - how can I blast it back to its original firmware and thereby get official Huawei/Honor OTA updates? Also shouldn't the 6X have received Nougat in the UK by now?
Thanks and apologies for the newbie question that has no doubt been asked many times.

You can ignore warning message. It wont cause any issue. This is because you may have unlocked bootloader while doing this.
What is the build number of firmware you flashed?
BLN-L21CXYZBXYC
please provide these details and I can help with the stock files.
we need OEMINFO file as well to get rid of this NRD test key stuff.
Namaste Shashank and thanks for the reply.
Although I can simply hit the power button to proceed, I would prefer it to automagically proceed to boot!! It was already SIM-unlocked when I bought it by the way. I bought this model second hand, so have the original box it came in and that only says it's a BLN-L21 with a S/N, EAN and IMEI1 (it's a dual sim model though a European model). It has 32Gb storage and 3Gb RAM. The sticker on the bottom of the box (with the S/N) says "This device may be operated in all member states of the EU" if that helps...
I was stupid enough not to take pictures or screenshots of all the system details before flashing it to Nougat, so I cannot give you the specific BLN-L21xxxxxxx information - I thought it might be found via the *#*#2846579#*#* USSD code, but while there is plenty of information there, it doesn't give a specific BLN-L21xxxxxxx code :/
I've tried attaching the phone to the HiSuite application, but it says everything's up to date. HALP!
How exactly can I determine the OEMINFO? I have a bunch of pictures I took with my other phone to illustrate the problem if you need them...

Sorry for the late answer brother, i just saw this post. So, i bought mine from Amazon and it is classified HW/EU standing by what my vendor.img says, my build it's C432. But don't worry, there's an easy way to know your build number in any moment; just write your IMEI here http://www.imei.info/ and details should follow
Ok great - will try that shortly!
Thanks a lot guys

Oh i see... Well, there's even an adb method to know build and other props. To obtain Android version you can write on adb "adb shell getprop ro.build.version.release", while other the rest should be visible after that you write "adb shell getprop".
Let me know if you can figure it out!
Ok the site is back up. Here are screen shots of the results - I only used the primary IMEI however.

I purchased my Honor 8 recently from Amazon.
I received model number FRD-L24. I can't find any information about this on Huawei site, this site or the sub reddit. Can anybody shed some light on what is going on with this model number? I am also desperate for the stock boot.img if anyone has access to it.

FRD-L24 doesn't exist as we know. It could be an old test device.
EDIT
As I can read the only site where It is nominated was FCC so I'm more sure about test device.
Wich version of EMUI have It?

Hello,
in the store they told me huawei isnt giving unlock codes anymore so i cant unlock my bootloader?
Is this correct?
For me i need unlock/root/custom roms etc, is there anybody who can give the correct answer on this?
I know i can get GMS installed but i need root, so i can use different apps, like modded whatsapp
Like i said, really looking forward to this device, i am a frequent xiaomi user but want to switch now
Theres a local discount here in my country and ends at wednesday 23:59
So hope for fast and correct answer/solution
Thanks
There is no current way of unlocking the bootloader. No one has managed to generate any working keys so you may as well give up now waiting. There is no sign that Huawei will reverse their decision.
