I have a huawei MT7 CL00 , its the chinese verison and everything is mostly chinese even when i set it to english. My question is do any roms or stock roms exist that i can flash and use all the features but pure english? What are my options ? Example on sony phones i can flash a rom from singapore or etc for an international type version, can i do that and if so how? thanks for the help ( i cant read the menus, in chinese)
CL00 has so many preinstalled apk in it, that may confuse you.
But CL version is China Telecom customized and is actually no suitable for international roaming.
Such as it has only LTE band1 /3/41 , it's CDMA only support BC0.
So I think there will be no international ROM usable.
The only way should be :root it and remove some preinstalled apk, and install google play store apk from third party website.
PS.
If you unlock fastboot and at command, an AT command to set customization area code maybe usable.
But that can cause the status bar network indicator issue.
I've read on internet that is possible to install EMUI 8.0 on Huawei P9 through the use of HiCare (but in my phone doesn't work).
This is the step:
Launch the HiCare app. You will be notified to set a location or region.
Set the location to China or Chinese.
The selection is mostly right above Hong Kong option.
Now provide proper permissions.
HiCare app detects your location automatically.
When prompted, do not change the location back to your own country.
Once setup, go to HiCare main page. Let it download necessary content for your device.
Once done, you will be get a new firmware update.
Most likely the latest Android 8.0 Oreo.
Anyone know if it's possible to do?

Never seen or heard that changing location for HiCare makes it possible to change the cust (AFAIK, changing location in HiCare is about getting local support, customizing Gallery App and its content, and about HiCloud).
Changing cust for firmwares requires to have unlocked Bootloader and to flash/change the oeminfo.
Besides, even when you make it and upgrade to Chinese Oreo, mobile connection will not work without flashing the needed network patch.
So forget doubtful YT and who-knows-where Internet 'guides', here on XDA you have a thread (with large and active community) devoted to rebranding to the Chinese Oreo AL10c00b540, with instructions and resources how to fix the modem (network patch), Magisk/rooting, and even to add Face Unlock (that does not come with stock Chinese Oreo)

I'm not talking about HiCloud but I'm talking about HiCare. It's two different software, but I doubt that this method works.

I wrote above that changing location through HiXXXX apps affect what you get through those apps (and IMO, you don't change location separate per each HiXXXX app, but once for all), but that all that has absolutely nothing with changing cust for firmware.
And I know very well what is HiCloud and HiCare....
However, HWOTA7 method as here on XDA (link in the previous answer) does work
PS: If you take time and read OP insrructions in that thread, you will see that rebranding is not that 'easy' as it would be by declaring your Hong Kong residency. Even when you change cust and download and install the Chinese Oreo firmware, you still need some adaptations (network patch) to get it work on the mobile networks outside of China
Writing you all this from such a rebranded P9 with the Chinese Oreo, hence knowing very well about the matter

You must have done something wrong.
The method worked for everybody else, many, many people from elsewhere, both on L09 and L19, and starting from different cXXX ( just look into the thread how many participants)
If you still want to do it, better describe what did you do (by points in its OP post #2) and by which point it 'fails' for you.
And it would be more effective to post for such help in the thread, there will be better chance to get an accurate answer
not working in iran

Method does not depend pn your location.
You must only have access to Internet to download all files you will need, as precisely described:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77161313&postcount=2
If you don't receive OTA Patch02, just skip, it's not crucial.
Everything else you download and install by yourself, hence you cannot be blocked by Huawei by your loxation.
However, you will need to download about 2,5 GB or so of files
HiSuiteLauncher
EMUI 9 fix and EMUI 10 Instructions here: Post. JSON file UPDATED!!!
A Launcher for HiSuite which grabs its ssl calls and hooks them so you can update to EMUI 9.1.
What does it do?
It will launch an instance of HiSuite, Huawei Smartphone PC Manager, if installed. This instance will have a hook to ssl calls made by HiSuite to HiCloud. So we can now handle responses by editing a simple text file for a full ota update. It won't touch anything else. With an update response, HiSuite should now handle the update process including the rollback option if available and a proper imei authorization to HiCloud. This is a way to force an update to your Huawei/Honor smartphone with a standard tool.
Setup and General Info
You will need FirmwareFinder (TeamMT). If you've been around Huawei/Honor forums you should already know what it is. With FF we can track ota updates and even run an authorization test for an update. This is important because we're gonna be using the ota ID and its full link to pass to HiSuite. If you spot an update and your device is not yet authorized to install it your phone will most likely avoid it either.
!IMPORTANT!: I've been using this method since march/19 without any problems. No wipes, connectivity losses, call problems, weird behavior whatsoever. In fact, I'm running EMUI 9.1 now. I don't know how you can ensure the ID you picked is the right one for your device - considering you are using the search correctly: for my Honor 10 C636 I search for COL-L29C636. You might notice the name of the device seems a bit strange and here comes a massive confusion. Col-L29 is now COL-LGRP2-OVS (C636 is overseas) with a bunch of small step rom versions like .226 .227. 228 .229. I usually pick the very first version my phone is authorized for. So my last update was .227. After the update I tested my phone for others versions like .228 and .229 and my phone was authorized for those too. Go figure!
Since HiSuite 9+ the cust info is in the update request and I believe HiCloud suggests the right package for your phone. The reason behind this is because the ota file I get sometimes it's different in size and checksum from the one you get from FF even if it's the same ID. Total speculation here. The cust and preload info have their own json structure. Please revisit the json file below. You can find find cust and preload data in FF simply by searching <your phone model>-<cust/preload>. They both feature their own IDs and urls and they are separated by EMUI versions (Android version).
ALWAYS take note of the rollback ID suggested by HiCloud. It might look like it's just a regular version but it's not! An update and a rollback IDs are different, with different flash scripts. HiCloud will send rollback data with major updates like from EMUI 8.1 to EMUI 9; EMUI 9 to EMUI 9.1. You can spot both IDs in FF as well.
Instructions:
Just extract the zip folder to any suitable folder in your computer and run the Launcher.exe. A console window will popup and HiSuite will appear right after. You can monitor HiSuite calls in the console window.
Remove root and TWRP. You have to be full stock.
Backup data. Even HiSuite will ask you to do it.
Be prepared to download at least 4Gb of data while keeping your phone plugged to your pc.
You will need a very basic understanding of json data structure.
You have 2 files that should remain in the main folder of the launcher:
hisuite9_request_update.txt: you should add the ID to "versionID" and full link to the update ota in "url". Get those from FF.
Please notice that there is a pattern here. The "url" data doesn't include the actual file. UPDATED!!!

IMEI.txt: add the first IMEI of your phone to the first line of this file.
Hit Update in HiSuite and you should see the red dot indicating an ota update (in fact, the update you added in the file above).
log.txt: this file holds the requests/responses during the current session.
Launcher.exe.config: here you can find a few setup options like hisuite folder.
Bugs
- Well, as far as I'm concerned you shouldn't face any bugs since it's pretty straight forward. BUT, please take my advice: if you're not sure about which update to go for avoid it altogether.
- It does not work with incremental updates. The recovery will reject it.
- In your phone, about phone page, it might not show the update changelog. Sometimes it does show, sometimes it doesn't.
- I cannot confirm this but since I always update my phone through this method I don't get incremental updates anymore. I don't know if it's because I'm always way ahead (updates usually take forever to reach my phone before and that's why I've been doing all of this) or anything else.
Notes:
- I have to thank Smaehtin (XDA) for kindly answering my request to support this tool for Honor 10 and for actually providing this method.
- Although I'm a professional developer (ERP stuff), I'm not used to C# so the code might look a bit messy and funky here and there. I'm sorry for that.
- The solution used is from a freeware compiler, SharDevelop (http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/).
- Disclaimer here, I am not responsible for any damage you (your phone) might suffer from attempting this. I tested it myself several times in my phone, Honor 10 C636 (COL-L29C636). HiSuite will handle the whole update process but you still can provide wrong data as of wrong IDs or wrong url.
- We are using EasyHook (https://easyhook.github.io/) and Newtonsoft.Json (https://www.newtonsoft.com/json) libs.

I wouldn't do that. There's no need to rush an update that way. And if you're not yet authorized for an update the recovery will just reject it.

I m speaking about getting to know myself which is the latest approved OVS builds for a specified region. (determined by spoofed/original device region)
Late 9.1 OVS build are surely/maybe cust specific now...
By the way, I'm already with a bootloader unlocked on a LYA-L29 demo C652 device which is soft-rebranded to C432 via magisk ^^
So far, I'm getting C432 OTAs ! (when time finally comes for my imei) on in-built Emui updater.
Your tool seems great. -never had to use it for now. (I did with custom FF DNS for some times)
-But I like to use it just to know what is the latest/next right C432 OVS build which is approved and actually fetched for a specified imei.
-Maybe I should get further on my magisk module which is softrebranding to spoof imei for Emui Updater process..... (just though)

I guess I get what you mean. In the source code there's an entry to spoof imei which I converted to read from file but that's for the authorization request. Still, I wouldn't go for it. As for knowing in advance the latest/next update roll out based on imei spoofing that would be kinda hard to accomplish imo because... well, it's random and the effort doesn't pay off. I'll have a look into it and update the tool.

Yes. But verify first regarding the regional version installed on your phone. I have C432 and I can downgrade. Some Cxxx s are not so easy to downgrade ( no firmware available to downgrade, EX:C605).

Ok some things have to be cleared first.
1. So far we were downgrading to 10.1.0.176 and then with dload method to 10.1.0.121
Now in this video the EMUI11-> 10 we are lowering the version to 10.1.0.131
Why xx.131, why not xx.121?
2. The preload R number
I have 2 identical P40pro, both from Germany C432 - I guess they have/ had the same region.
The First one was googlified in July with dload method. ROM in dload 10.1.0.121 there was R5. I am not sure which ROM was on the phone before downgrade, and now the R number on phone is R5
The Second P40pro is still clean - the Preload is R4
Is it safe to install the R5 version of 131 to the R4 device?
I am thinking, if dload was R5 and was patched it over R4 and phone is still functional ( OTA is working on first one without any problems)

1. On both firmware 121 and 131 you can install GMS. It is up to you. I prefer 121.
2. If I have available the 10 preload file with the same R as my 11 preload installed on the phone, I will choose it.

This won't work if you have EVER went to above version 11.0.0.170+. If you try to do it anyway, you will NOT have USb connectivity after the downgrade to EMUI10.1.0.176 and you will have no method to dload to 10.1.0.121, 131 or whatever.
Your only option will be to go back to latest EMUI 11 version via OTA and start all over again.
If you really want to downgrade to EMUI 10, then go directly to EMUI 10.1.0.121 by Hisuiteproxy. But it seems unneccessary since you already had GMS installed. YOu have a good chance of getting it to work again even if you have uninstalled some of the apps.

It doesn't matter. There are three software components (base,preload and cust) that need to match, they go hand in hand. Preload is interchangeable within some limits (they have to be close by date to be suitable for that specific software version).
He probably just found a different working combination.

Because that is what he found. It's fine. You can use either but you need all a working preload and cust too. Don't mix those up from the other version. For 10.1.0.121 you need a preload and cust that works for 10.1.0.121.
For 10.1.0.131 you need those that work for 10.1.0.131.

Yes, that is a western+central European region code. It is the best because there are firmwares available for it and it works for so many countries.

Yes it is safe to interchange the preload (which can be R4, R5, R6) as it only differs in the preinstalled bonus apps. Doesn't matter because sometimes it differs already within a stock too it seems. But all the others details MUST match.

However you should go directly to EMUI 10.1.0.121 or 131 because you won't have USB connectivity if you downgrade from above EMUI 11.0.0.170. And you need to go back to the latest version as soon as possible to restore USB.

This won't work if you have EVER went to above version 11.0.0.170+. If you try to do it anyway, you will NOT have USb connectivity after the downgrade to EMUI10.1.0.176 and you will have no method to dload to 10.1.0.121, 131 or whatever.
Your only option will be to go back to latest EMUI 11 version via OTA and start all over again.
If you really want to downgrade to EMUI 10, then go directly to EMUI 10.1.0.121 by Hisuiteproxy. But it seems unneccessary since you already had GMS installed. YOu have a good chance of getting it to work again even if you have uninstalled some of the apps.
It doesn't matter. There are three software components (base,preload and cust) that need to match, they go hand in hand. Preload is interchangeable within some limits (they have to be close by date to be suitable for that specific software version).
He probably just found a different working combination.
Because that is what he found. It's fine. You can use either but you need all a working preload and cust too. Don't mix those up from the other version. For 10.1.0.121 you need a preload and cust that works for 10.1.0.121.
For 10.1.0.131 you need those that work for 10.1.0.131.
Correct,it means preload.
Yes, that is a western+central European region code. It is the best because there are firmwares available for it and it works for so many countries.
It is fine. Preload doesn't matter if it is suitable for given version. It can be R4, R5 or R6.
I have R4 too. You can stay on R4 if you want to as here is the hisuiteproxy combination for that. My phone is just like yours: https://i.kek.sh/yF7jZG9usVs.png
Yes it is safe to interchange the preload (which can be R4, R5, R6) as it only differs in the preinstalled bonus apps. Doesn't matter because sometimes it differs already within a stock too it seems. But all the others details MUST match.
That is okay.
That is also okay.
Well if this is the only thing that will be different then yes, it will be functional and OTA will work too.
However you should go directly to EMUI 10.1.0.121 or 131 because you won't have USB connectivity if you downgrade from above EMUI 11.0.0.170. And you need to go back to the latest version as soon as possible to restore USB.

Thank you for the answers
I would like also to add a few inputs - I have taken the following:
- ELS-LGRP4-OVS 10.1.0.121
- ELS-N29-CUST 10.1.0.7(C432)
- ELS-N29-PRELOAD 10.1.0.2(C432R5)
IMPORTANT: After the Googlifier Turn OFF the automatic update in Play Store
Version on my phone which do not require additional and other fixes
Play Store app: 27.7.15-21 [ 0 ] [ PR ] 405437458
Google Play Services: 21.3.18 ( 120400-407637301 )
Got the Fast charging over the OTA already at 10.1.0.151. Now I am on the 11.0.0.208.
Fully works: Google Search, Google Assistant, Maps, Gmail, PlayStore, Translate, Drive, Fit, Home, Android Auto..
Limited: GPay - i am able to store tickets and loyality cards, BUT Contactless Payment does NOT work - I was able to add the credit card though.
Not working (yet): Firebase Notification Service for Push messages
When someone needs the GPay ( if you already have the account from other phone or web):
- instal the last Android Pay (version 9) from APKMirror. Set the account there. Upgrade to Gpay. Done. No more stupid splash screen that device is not certified.

Yes it is working on my setup. Used it on FORD Focus system.
It's an old device right now and it shouldn't be considered in 2021, even if's looking good on paper. It was nice to have it on mate 40 pro, but it looks like it's impossible to install gms directly into the phone
Hello, do you think is not a good choice buy this device right now?
I have a good opportunity to buy this device as a good price.
The GMS is working on the last firmware?
Thanks in advance.
Last firmware is the worst firmware. It is better to have lower firmware version.
Post here the full version of EMUi (region Cxxx included), and I can make you a suggestion.
Should be 11.0.0.xxx or 10.1.0. xxx , Cxxx
With the previous firmware (What is the version?) everything is working fine?
I'm with some doubt's to buy this device because of GMS.
Ask the seller about version. Post it here. We can talk after that. Read again my previous answer ( I changed it). Told him to not upgrade the EMUI.
Found a way to update. Please follow the below tutorial.
Download the folder https://mega.nz/folder/hMI1CQ7B#2oIjaFuEIKaxdu2h6--nqA (GDrive Here thanks to @zefirz).
Place this folder in a USB drive.
Use an OTG cable to connect the USB drive to the P50 Pro.
Dial *#*#2846579#*#* from the dial pad.
Select option 4, and then option 1, press ok. The phone will restart and the upgrade will start.
CAUTION
******** This process will wipe all the data.
******** I am not responsible for any bricks.
Important Points
If you have trouble downloading the whole folder from mega, download the files individually and place on the USB drive. Make sure the folder structure is same on the USB drive as in the download link.
If you face error when copying files to USB drive, check the file system. Change the file system to either NTFS or exFAT.

I have the same doubt (I also have p50 pro global). I have tried to search for information and only found a page from china that charges you for downloading the ROM.

Process not working for P50 Pro on EMUI 12.0.1.221.
Steps followed were:
Change the region to Hong Kong, China in the MyHuawei App.
The HOS screen comes, but when it is clicked, it started to find the update but didn't find any.
Removes the SIM and then tried the above steps.
Same result.

Clear MyHuawei data, start the app again > Choose HK > When MyHuawei ask for permission to access location > Deny. After that, follow the instruction again. Loaded HOS that way 2days ago. No sim removal needed, MyHuawei looks for location, that's why even when you choose HK it still detects that you aren't really in HK

Make sure you performed "Clear Data" for MyHuawei app first, then you start that app again(Remember when it ask for location permission,deny it) > Choose HK > Follow the attached Pics > it will lead to checking for update

That's exactly what I did.
Attempt number 2:
1. In the Android settings, the country is Hong Kong, China. English language. In the settings of My Huawei, the country is Hong Kong, China.
2. Cleared My Huawei app data
3. Just in case, I rolled back all application updates. Updated to the latest version via AppGallery
4. Launched My Huawei, denied access to geodata
5. I tried to upgrade to Harmony OS - unsuccessfully.
P.S. Tried from under VPN - too does not work.

I only set location to HK in MyHuawei app, any other setting outside of the app I didn't change(Which is Malaysia). Clear app data, choose HK in app, on the 1st page > tap on the 2nd white banner HarmonyOS 2 Beta(HK) > location permission should pop up here, deny > update page checking for update > voilà
Another thing to note is that I'm using simplified chinese, I didn't reset anything else other than that app alone. Previously it failed to show HOS2 update, till I clear myhuawei app data and deny location access. And I didn't use vpn
Language as simplified Chinese?
Please also share the My Huawei apk if you can.
