what model is it? - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Mate 8 was bought from Wondamobile, in HK.
It is the International version (4gb/64gb)
This is the informations I got on their invoice:
HUAWEI ASCEND MATE 8 INTERNATIONAL VERSION 32/64GB DUAL LTE MOBILE PHONE (NXT-L29) UNLOCKED AND SIM FREE
SKU: HAWINXTL29064BRZ
Know it has installed the rom NXT-L29 C432B581
However I suspect that is accepted C432 ROM after som flashing and reflashing. It is rooted and has bootloader unlocked but I never rebranded it properly.
Original model should be C636 or C185? What do you think?
Thanks for any help

hi
I think it's a C636 region because it comes from Hongkong

Flashing C636 Rom from Funky site also failled
Another strange issue: I made a TWRP Backup and folder name was "...NRD90M Test keys..."
I sincerely believe that although phone info refers EMUI 5.01 my system must be some hybrid of diferent roms...but aparently working well

hi
you can verify your area
In dialer * # * # 2846579 # * # * Enter and then 3 - Network Information and then on 4 - Vendor Country Info
Cust eu = C432 - Europe
Cust specseas = C636 - Asie
do wipe data before new installation
to install from twrp take this in Firmwarefinder
NXT-L09C636B563 FullOTA-MF-PV
then update ota from the phone

But mine is L29. Which ri«om should I instal?

Hi
must take for an installation from twrp
NXT-L29C636B563 FullOTA-MF-PV
then update from the phone to get the latest version
(for install from twrp it is necessary FullOTA-MF-PV)

Hello,
I would like to debrand my phone. I read some guide here and I will use srk tool.
Now I'm on c02b133.
Which is the correct procedure?
have I to install via dload c432b136, go to c900 and then unlock bootloader, root e oem info file?
Or have I to unlock bootloader, root, oem info file and then flash the rom c432?.
I have this doubt because in some post, someone told to reinstall stock recovery after root, and forced the installation of the stock rom..so I'm not sure about correct way.
Thank to everyone

unlock bootloader > install twrp > root > change oeminfo and custom.bin > fastboot stock recovery > dload
after finished your phone become c432 and it can any ota from c432 firmware.
if you would like to go back to , you can do with the same method.
Always make backup of your oeminfo before u debrand.

Need some help.
i've used this toolkit to unlock,twrp and root. All done perfectly. After that i want to change my oeminfo from C900 to C432. iv'e backuo of the oeminfo and then used this toolkit to change that but, my phone first stuck in boot and lost TWRP and root.
Then when it is power on it shows a red message(normally it is yellow/orrange) and i cant install TWRP,root or lock BT again,all failed
SOLVED: Flash the new version in sdcard. Restored BL locked,recovery and all went fine. Finally.
What can i do?
This is the first procedure to debrand the Phone?
Hello guys
I'm from italy, and in this week i'll receive my new huawei p9, but there is a problem: is brand vodafone!
So the updates are reeeeally slow...like the last was b133, and i saw something like b180 on the no brand smartphones :S
So i was searching how to debrand the p9 and i saw this guide:
"to debrand the phone, the boot loader has to be locked and with the stock recovery.
create a folder in the sd called "dload"
download the ROM Stock EVA-l09C432B136 file, and place in the dload folder
turn off the device and reboot it pressing power+volume up+volume down"
I don't know if this is old or what, its still working?
Many thanks,

You updated to a test build. You'll probably need to rollback to Marshmallow using Huawei's rollback package. You could try using the Charles method... Look in the guides forum for how to do a Sympathic update.

Did the roll back. Wasn't able to flash the 2nd package the way that it described in the rollback PDF but it worked in the method described in the PDF that comes with the 6.0 firmware download (applying update from SD card). Both packages took a couple tries updating, not sure why.
I ended up on the test build using the Charles method last time.
Used the Firmware Finder (Team MT) proxy route this time and easily made it to B360.
Thanks for your help!
Can you help me with the steps,i am now in the NRD90M test keys mode

Hello
If you have got a FRD-L09 C432, you have to dl and flash the B131 before upgrading toward Nougat ( B360 for example). You have to use the dload method ( dl B131 and extract then) and you place the Update.app in a file named dload in a SD card in your phone. Turn on your phone and you use the 3 buttons ( VOL +, VOL - and Power in same time until the tel enters in flashing).

For my mind, you have to do a rollback toward MM. So, you have dl two files in official Honor site! Then, you apply the dload method ( extract and put an update.app in a Sd card in a file named Dload) and flash by the three buttons ( Vol+, Vol- and Power) for the first file and repeat the same operation for the second.
I hope it works.

There may be 2 zips for model. One is main zip and then one for data zip. You need to flash both. It will bring back the updater app in setting.
For NRD TEST KEY, you need to flash the oeminfo file. Let me know if help required

You need the oeminfo file of this version and then need to dload again to be able to get rid of nrd test keys. There is a detailed procedure in my debranding guide in signature but you need to have oeminfo file for your model and then firmware.
Or you can try debranding guides for honor 8 to other variant to have Google also.

Hey guys
Iam get my new phone rebranding from AL-00 to Frd-l19 At MM 6.0 Emui 4.1 and get update nougat give me that firmware Frd-l19c432b360 and nothing update again ?!
Is that right guys or i have a problem ?!

Hello radhaddiab
I advise you to rebrand your FRD-AL00 phone to FRD-L09 (C432B131) and maybe you will have a more recent OTA update.
And IMHO, you should try to update to B380 (Above this version, it can sadly bootloop with rebranded China models - AL00 and AL10 - of Honor 8).
I have one AL00 phone too, rebranded to L09 (C432B131), and OTA update find B390+ firmware to install. (if installed, phone bootloop for me...)
But if I go to "Menu" (of Updater App) and click on "Donwload the full update package", I get the B380 firmware to download. After update, do a "Factory reset" (recommended).
If no luck with OTA updates, try the "RedLotus" method (requires a computer): https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-flashing-unapproved-firmwares-t3668306
You must dowload and install HiSuite v5.0.1.300, not the latest one: https://www.filehorse.com/download-hisuite/28890/

I only advise you L09, because you have AL00 model (32 GB internal memory). If it was AL10 model, I would advise L19. (64 GB)
But... that's not really important. ^^
And trying L09 can give you a different OTA firmware update than L19. But it's safe to update up to B380 (not more), that's all.
If you bootloop because you tried to install a more recent firmware, you can always "rollback" to B131.

With a rebranded china model to any Lxx model : B380 is the last safe update I know working, actually.
I think it's possible to have a more recent update if you revert your rebrand (to original AL00 model); Last AL00 stock firmware is B396.
Yeah it's sad... :crying:

OTA updates were never available, since I bought it.
I fear that C432 is not the original model, as C432 is for Europe and I bought it as an international model, from Ondamobile - HK.
Perhaps it was C636 or C185 and during one past upgrade C432 was installed...I am not sure.
The device is also rooted, and it is stable. Rebranding failled because bootloader is Unlocked. I think I am stuck permanently with this B581 rom

Another strange issue: I made a TWRP Backup and folder name was "...NRD90M Teste keys..."
I sincerely believe my system is some hybrid of diferente roms...but aparently working well

Do not reboot after flashing the oeminfo or it may brick the phone.
i.e. once oeminfo is edited, phone may brick :

- if wrong region firmware is selected in EMUI FLASHER
- if downgrading
- if flashing wrong packages

You can..No need. it will just be a command change for this step to C636 and instead of EU the correct one followed by correct firmware flash.
./oeminfo JSN-L21 C432 hw/eu

to anything but chinese, probably. International should be fine. My only worries are that the different firmware wont work with the different hardware.

I did the steps and flashed the L42 files and it worked out fine, and the font was reverted to its original. Then I repeated the steps again and it no longer boots. It can only reach the honor logo and it restarts itself.
