Rebranded to C636 and OREO - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

I have rebrande my mate 9 ,mha-l29c185 to c636 and enrolled into Oreo beta program but i am getting a message "your phone cannot participate in any projects" while other c636 brands are getting Oreo Beta today, what went wrong with me. Screenshots are attached

Try a SIM for that region

I am in Pakistan and the region which is receiving Oreo is Malaysia ?

I didn't know there were C636 users eligible for the Oreo Beta. I thought it was only for C432 users.

OTA Updates?

EDIT: On Oreo now.
EDIT:
Is you're stock at an "old" version and the "normal" way of updating via OTA dosn't work try this:
Go to system update setting,
Click the 3 dots in the upper right corner and select download latest full package.
That should give you the latest Nougat updates.
For Oreo: Try to use HiSuite
Not all countries receive updates at the same time. Even not all phones in the same country.
If you have automatic update enable you'll receive a notification.
Hope so your model belong to the UK (Not sure). If it is UK model, you will get the update within the first batch of release.
If you belong to any other region it takes time. But you will get it for sure.
Depends on the sponsors in your region, your carrier...

No, my model don't "belong" to the UK. I live in Denmark and bought the phone in Denmark.
Don't know if you mean UK model as in European model.
I bought the phone off-contract (it's not branded it anything), so it's not depending on any carrier.
Well I as have understood it, there is no UK version, only a European version (for Europe).
I have the same model and got the b120 update a few days after it was reported here (i guess most here have the US model). The b150 seems to take longer though

As I understands it Huawei have released 6.0.1 aka B150.

Strange? I received and installed B160 and phone info reports I'm on android 6.0
I have model frd al10
Does this mean higher ota version number not necessarily higher version of Android?
Seems like there are 3 versions (regions) of Honor 8.
EU, US and Chinese versions. (32 and 64 gb)
Anyone knows or can confirm which models have what versions of Android, as the latest available as we speak?
Seems like the EU (FRD-L09/AL19) version is running Android 6.0 - B120 (unbranded - not carrier depending)

All are running in 6.0 update. However some region would have got 6.0.1 update. Some regions would have not got it.
Always there will be one incremental update difference (maximum) between the regions. As all regions wont get the update in the same time.
Ok, let me put it this way: Has anyone with the FRD-L09 model received the B150/6.0.1 update yet?
B141 is out of the box. B150 is slowly being distributed still.
I don't think Asian and EU/US release codes are the same.
India 32GB = FRD-L02 firmware so there's more than 3 regional firmware types
The latest firmware for L09C432 is B131 and that is the EU region, L09C636 is Asia, L09C185 is Africa/Middle East, US is L04, India is L02.
Is not just the modell like L09 that says where your phone is from, is the Cust, like C432, C636, C185, then there is Branded phones like C02 is Vodafone, C55 is TIM Italy and so on....
So for your version if u are from Denmark u should have C432 the latest is B131.
Then we have China modells like AL10 and DL00, C10....
U have a thread with latest firmware here.

Yes, I have the C432 model. However my current build is: FRD-L09C432B120, and there is no update, if I check with the "Updater". The phone was shipped with version FRD-L09C432B120, so so far I haven't installed any updates...

It might be a Beta version. Wait for the bugs to get fixed and get a stable update as OTA
If you need now, you can update manually.
B150 is on the way. Major release.

Mate 9 C675 (India) Full OTA MF

Hi Guys
Can someone help me with the C675 (India) FullOTA-MF download link for Mate 9??
Searched here http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/?firmware_model=MHA-L29&firmware_page=0
But this has only OTA-MF for the C675
I need to enable VoLTE in India. Tried with C567(US) version but still not getting the enable VoLTE option
Any success? I was also looking to enable the Volte option in INdia.
If it's not there it doesn't exist yet. I'd probably rebrand to c636 seeing your models update history... I mean, 2 updates since January doesn't look good.
No success. Probably they are not going to release it
I bought it as 185, then moved to 636 and then to 567 in search for VOLTE. No success in either of them..

Firmware Finder Oreo Update region code C10

Hi. When I open firmware finder today,i saw Mha-l29 8.0.0.360(C10) firmware and it approved installation for me. But my region code is c432. Can I install it? Do it brick my device?
MHA-L29 cihazımdan Tapatalk kullanılarak gönderildi
It bricked my device like that , if no warranty dont do it.
c432 have oreo, no need c10
Even if it gets approved is it safe? I have C185

Surely, no!
How it can be safe, if you want install it without rebranding?
Huawei approved it to all, that means no imei filter.
You are using FF that points to ROMs on HiCloud instead of waiting official way. So you must be careful and know what you are doing.

When it checks by IMEI and shows that it is authorized it checks if the update was authorized by Huawei, since it is a different "brand" I wouldn't suggest installing it but the "update.zip" is pretty much the same across all regions, it is the data and hw zips that contain most of the stuff that is different for different regions, for myself I am waiting on the official c567 Oreo to hit (I'm running the beta right now), with new regions showing up on ff now every few days, it shouldn't be long till the Oreo official updates have rolled out to all the regions.

Yes, in FF the C185 version is already out, I'm waiting for it to be authorized, I hope it's fast

Trying to decide which region to rebrand to

Have been using my Mate 9 single sim L09 for nearly a year - something I haven't managed with any phone in my life. I love it.
Received phone with C185 branding (Middle-East / Africa). Since then I rebranded to C432 (Europe) as there were very slow updates to C185.
Now according to Firmware Finder the first regions to get Oreo are C636 (Asia-Pacific), C10 (Russia) and C185 (My original region lol)
What region would you rebrand to if you had a choice? Do you think we get monthly security updates on any region in 2018 now?
TLDR: Should have stayed on C185 Africa region

Can I rebrand AND update to Oreo simultaneously?

Hi everybody, I've seen many guides on how to rebrand Mate 9 and on how to update to Oreo... But as I'm a beginner on this subject I would like to know if there is a way to do BOTH at the same time:
I've got a chinese MHA-AL00 running stock Nougat and I'm tired of all those chinese notifications and HiApp crap.... I want to rebrand to C432 or c636 (don't know the difference) to get full Google integration (mainly for Assistant support) instead of that HiApp sh*t....
Can I flash it directly to an international Oreo?

I think you should rebrand while on Nougat to C432 (Europe) or C636 (Singapore if I'm correct) and then update to Oreo using the OTA in system settings. I rebranded from AL00 too to C432 and had the Oreo update via OTA.
There is a good comprehensive guide somewhere here about rebranding.
You can. Here is the method, only difference that you have to choose rebrand at the software instead of flash update.
