Debranding from BLN-AL10 to BLN-L22 Indian version - Honor 6X Questions & Answers

Hi Folks,
as the title says, has anybody gt success while debranding from BLN-AL10 to BLN-L22 Indian version? I tried FF method but not working so sure even the dload wont work. While taking the TWRP backup, I noticed there is no OEM info file for AL10 model and later realized even custom bin is missing.
Any idea or detailed method is appreciated.
PS- FF method doesnt work and I dont believe the thread posted for this guide as there are no screenshots or anything.

Phone on wrong firmware

Hi good day all, I need help.
My phone is flashed with an FRD AL19 but the back print says FRD AL10.
Is there any way to revert this to AL10? It seems that the AL19 is stuck on B360 update and I'm seeing alot of posts about newer firmware and I'm really worried I might not be updated to Oreo in the future.
I hope someone can help as AL10 posts are really rare.
Cheers.
P.S
I'm not rooted, and I can't root it via Huawei anymore, hope there's a non root method.

I need help! Mate 9 MHA-L29C636

It all started when my phone didn't get the Oreo Update. So I unlocked my bootloader, installed TWRP, downloaded an Android 8.0 rom for my phone.
I wiped data, system, boot, caches, and internal storage. I tried to flash it but is failed. So I restored the backup of system and boot. When I restarted the phone, it is missing many key apps, keyboard, file manager, and system update, and settings such as bluetooth is not working. Please help me! Games are running pretty slow and
the UI is ugly as hell, please someone help me!

You will hardly find a trustful source since FF does not host anymore, or what.
There is a generic Huawei Firmware Finder thread on XDA (not specific for Mate 9), find it and ask there, maybe FF moved or reorganized, maybe there is still a chance to use and download
Otherwise, you can try:
Search - AndroidHost.RU
Check multiple download links at the same time.
androidhost.ru
Enter MHA-L09 or MHA-L29 (or just MHA-L), depending what's your model and Search. Go through the list if you find something for c636 (there is more for v432, but it requires unlocked Bootloader and rebranding).
Most of the firmwares here contain official Installation instructions from Huawei, and a matrix from which build numbers they can be used for DLOAD - they are the so-called Service Repair firmwares for Huawei service repair shops
There were threads here about American users updating from Nougat and Oreo to Pie, find them and read. If you ask there, maybe spmebody can still answer (threads were still acive last year, not in 2018 like the the threads you choose to ask)
Good luck

Try searching for general FF thread on XDA and ask them what happened with their store
As a last chance you can try:
Huawei | Halab Tech Support
support.halabtech.com
They have scattered things around various folders and pretty complicated scheme (at least it was 2 yrs ago) how and what can be downloaded for free and what requires and which type of subscription
Two years ago I downloaded something successfully (without subscription), later didn't try anymore (btw, I have ended up with my Mate 9 and generally the Huawei phones)

problem that before had the Russian site Ffinder that had the ROMS and now has no more.
I managed to do the DLOAD only with Nougat that I have here and I don’t think anymore, I found other C432 C185 Oreo but I don’t find the C636
it's really hard
I downloaded this MHA-L29C636B378 (8.0.0.378) but when making the DLOAD folder it doesn't work

Honor 8 FRD-AL10 debrand

Hi everybody!
A friend of mine gave me a Honor 8, model FRD-AL10, so is the Chinese version.
I would like to install the european version of the Firmware, but i read that it can be dangerous if i dont follow the correct instructions.
I tried to check on the forum, but I did not find any guide that could help me.
Can somebody help me?
Also, if the device crashes, would it be possible to restore it?
And after I install the firmware, can I update it normally, or do I have to flash the new firmware every time?
Thanks
What is the instruction? Tell me about it. btw if phone crashed you can restore via hisuite on your computer.

Downgrade firmware to unlock bootloader to root

Hi all,
I got my new Huawei Honor V10 Saturday and it's an excellent phone! The phone updated itself to the latest firmware as soon as it connected to WiFi.
So now I have BKL - L09 8.0.0. 163(C636)
This is an important question that might help all new V10 people....
Would it be possible to use funky Huawei to downgrade the firmware to before the July patch /update and then use DC unlocker or HCU client to unlock the bootloader??
What's your thoughts on this?
Thanks for your help
D.
Do you have a code?
If you have a code.. You don't have to downgrade
If you don't have a code.... Sorry about your bad luck

He does not have one.
We were thinking, as DC/HCU used to work with Honor V10 (though on their site it only lists AL models, but I have seen someone use it to remove FRP lock), downgrading might be a solution. Sadly there are no dload packages for C636, but they exist for both C432 and C00 on androidhost.ru.
The thing is, if someone has already tried this and it failed OP wouldn't have to waste $45$.
So if someone on C432 who doesn't have an unlock code they could test downgrading to a May patch firmware or earlier.
I can provide instructions if you want to test.
This works fine on Mate 10/Pro as long as you haven't updated to a 02 xloader, then downgrading won't work as recovery will check xloader to prevent the brick that occurs when you flash a 01 xloader firmware on one with 02
I have a c675 on b161...I have a unlock code.. But am unwilling to root the finiky honor..
While I could.. It's not as easy or simple as my old Samsung.. Plus a lot of the features break upon flashing of other ROMs
While I would debloat tweak..I think the phone is fine as it is
Good luck...

OP doesn't have an unlock code. OP is asking if it would be possible to downgrade using FunkyHuawei to an earlier fw, and then to use DC/HCU to get unlock code.
Same way can be done on Mate 10/Pro, I downgraded (Though through DLOAD) from C432B148-SP1 to B142 and DC was working fine. On C432B145+ (June+) it is not working at all.
But I cant find any real proof that DC/HCU was working for global Honor View 10 prior to June firmware.
And as for debloating, there's not much bloat to begin with (thankfully). And preinstalled apps, including some of Huaweis own, can be uninstalled/disabled.
I couldn't live without root But I guess I like tinkering with my phone more than actually using it as a phone, lol
Good luck

You would have to use service firmware from androidhost.ru. I would downgrade to the version which is GPU Turbo. That one might work with DC.
You get instructions with the firmware, but basically just you unzip the file, copy the 'dload' folder from 'Software' to microsd and start dload mode (Vol up + down + power).

HI,
Thanks for quick reply. I will try your method later on but I would like to say that
I did try to downgrade to STF-L09_C432B130 from 4pda.ru/forum via SD card method in *#*#2846579#*#* but it failed at 5%
Any Idea what could be wrong? Also can you tell me how do I know that firmware is GPU Turbo? Thanks

B376 is the build that added GPUTurbo so you should be able to downgrade to that.
They added a new bootloader in that so you can't downgrade past it.
(You can technically but your device will hardbrick and you need to flash with TWRP or NoCheck recovery).
It may be possible because huawei started preventing downgrades in Pie, and I'm not sure if they've done so in later builds of Oreo too...

Yes, thanks I did managed to downgrade to 376 and tried to use dc again with same error 375. I did notice that my phone is not in device manager modem section as required by DC May this be a reason? Also what is downgrading in Pie ?

Downgrade to a previous build. Like B197 to B179. Can't be done in Pie.
You could try with the Handset ProductLine drivers found in DCs download section, but if it can read phone it means it should work if it's not patched in B376. So chances are they added it in B376, and you can't downgrade past it.
You didn't save unlock code last time you got it?

Unfortunately I could not find the code I was given before.
DC does not identify my phone by name and model it is just saying Found Applications port
Also in DC app on my phone there is no option for code by IMEI ???
I could not find a specific drivers for my phone in download section of Dc site. There is two files for Huawei Android phone drivers but I do not know how to instal them.

Rebrand AL00 to L-29 script found, link in post!

Hi!
So i found a rebrand script for AL00 to L-29 on 4pda.ru through the https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...-mate-20-x-global00ized-2-0-emui-9-1-t3920956 thread, by joining thier telegram group. For it to work an unlocked bl is required ofc, wich i have.
I haven't tested it, maybe someone with more knowledge could take a look at it? Here's the link http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=932930&st=920#entry89756746

After rebrand from AL00 to L29, can I rebrand from L29 back to AL00? Unlock bootloader code still working? Thanks
Somebody tried?
Is it possible to change launcher then?
What about further updated, who knows.
Ok, let ask this and hopefully those who tried it already can provide an answer.
*The script is for changing your OEM info correct? Rebranding means being able to use L29 firmware as well. Can you explain how or what method did you use to flash L29 firmware?
*The instructions does not say it but do we need an L29 update.zip firmware ready?
*After FULLY rebranding your AL00 TO L29, can you now use 3rd party Launcher?

On telegram group, guy who done this few times said that you can change launcher and that it works only on 123, not 135...

Hi people!
Think i'm gonna try this today, but if someone has tested this. When rebranded have you also tested the option to Flash the L-29/global firmware and does it work? Is there a specific firmware you must flash first, or can i Flash the latest L-29 firmware directly?

Hi!
Iv'e been at this script several Times today.
Nothing works all the options does same thing, flashes recovery_ramdisk reboots, then tells me to hold power button+volume up. All that does is takeing me to eRecovery, then if I reboot the phone to fastboot, it says Flash firmware+cust in upgrade mode. Hit any key, i do that and the Windows closes nothing more. So how did you manage to rebrand? And when rebranded do you use L-29 firmware and get the system updates for the global version?

Hi!
I checked and nothing seems to change, ofc i cant check directly efter the script has run, becuase then it wants me to boot into erecovery. But if i turn it off, and start it in fastboot, it says same info again.
In erecovery it says downloaded latest recovery+firmware, but i'm afriad it will download latest AL00 firmware instead. Then i Will not be able to install transformation rom becuase of erofs is present in newer fw.

In theory, if you successfully changed OEMINFO AL00 to L29, then through erecovery downloaded latest recovery+firmware will restore the default FW of L29 (The oeminfo of L29 has been flashed to your device).
Hi.. has anyone managed this successfully? I desperately want to do this though am worried to brick my only device (That I currently can't afford to replace)
My device is currently AL00 9.1.0.135 is this the correct version for this script?
Could anyone do a detailed guide. For us worried people... Happy to contribute beer money, after successful rebrand if required.
Also I noticed looking at the script it installs Magisk to do whatever it does.... Will this trigger anything (like Samsung has Knox) as I don't want to be stuck with not being able to use gpay and banking etc.....?
Would I be able to remove Magisk after and go back to "stock"?
Sorry for all the questions just trying to work it all out before I take the plunge.

You say that read the posts in 4pda.ru forum, but i haven't read anything that could help in those posts.
