Honor 6, Weird Model, im desperate

Hello everyone, this is my first post, and I really do because I'm desperate, i buy honor 6 and I received a truly strange model, since configurations said to be the model "H300" , when I connect it to the computer tell me which is the model "H60-L01" and the box says "H60-L12"
I'm a little upset because I wanted a phone that could upgrade to 3.0 EMUI and really was not what I wanted.
Please, someone has a solution to this problem, expain me what have to do I am not very familiar with these temmas to update phone, I simply ask them to give me some steps to podersolucionar this problem.
sorry by my english
thx

you bought a refurbished or used honor? It seems like someone has flashed there other firmware as the stock for this model. When you turn it around so you can see the back of the phone. near the speaker on the back there should be a written text - two lines - most of the chars are chinese but in the 2nd row you should read something like: Chinese chars: H60-L12 CMIT ID: ...
If its so it can be a L12. Another way is to get CPU-Z from Play store and verify the specs with the data sheet to get sure not to got a fake.
If you bought a brand new phone and got an already used honor I would give it back and order a new one. If its not so you can revert the full stock rom with the howto here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6/general/huawei-honor-6-index-t2963209
Scroll down to:3 Button Restore not working (If you change between variant example L02>L12) Or Partition been changes and cannot restore back Stock version. Use this steps below : -
But keep in mind there is a chance to brick the phone. So all things you do are on your own riks!
By the way... What was the model you bought? Honor 3C, Honor 6 L01 or Honor 6 L12?

Is it dual sim ? has NFC ? has 32gb ?

Yes, is the 32gb model

Need Help Switching Honor 6 Region

Hello, I'll explain my problem, I've bought a Honor 6 before it was avaiable in my country and only after I discovered the differences in OS who limite how I can use it.
I have a Honor 6 L-12, it should be the chinese version, I would like to switch the OS with the one used in Europe (I live in Italy) so I can use the Huawei features who are region blocked.
Could someone explain to me the procedure in detail so I avoid to brick it?
My device is a H60-L12
H60-L12C00B505
Using the Lollipop beta of a month ago, 5.1.1
Emui 3.1.
Thanks to who can help me.

Honor 8 FRD AL10 from Chinese to English ROM

Hello everyone,
My brother got a Honor 8 FRL AL10 in China as a gift from Honor company and he asked me to change the Chinese Android to English if it's possible. My knowledge of such "operation" is very limited and following few guides I have managed to root the phone using the TWRP and SuperSu.
Now I'm kinda stuck here and don't know what to do next. I don't even know if it's possible to do it, I have used the search but in my eyes there is a ton of data which I don't understand and it makes me anxious tbh. So I want to ask you guys here to tell me in laic english what are my options right now. Is it possible to just flash the "english" version without all the chinese apps because I would rather stick to the stock ROM for now. I've spend all day with 1000 tabs open reading about stuff I can't understand :crying:
Thank you very much
tldr:
Have a chinese honor8, want to transfer android to "normal, english", phone rooted

you didnt had to do root for that, its just a selection of language in settings
or if you wanted an international version of software, you shouldve tried the official method,, or any official english firmware,
since now you have rooted and on twrp, go on and flash any custom rom available..

Ebay bought Mate 8 not updating..?

So I bought a (supposedly) sealed Mate 9 on ebay as a Christmas present to myself, and it's great! but i'm not getting any updates.. its an MHA-L29, Build no MHA-L29C432B182-log.
I'd previously been onto Huawei on facebook with an update query on my Mate 8, so I queried them about this phone with the same question. This was what I got back:
Hi Fred,
Thank you for getting back to us.
We have tried checking the IMEI numbers of your Mate 9 device in our system and although on the consumer website we were prompted with the information that the device is intended for China, while running them through our other software tools we were unable to gain access to any type of information.
For this reason we won't be able to provide any details related to the current Build Number available for the device, or any other details related to the updates intended for it.
Should any other questions arise, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Best regards, Huawei
So it seems it's a China model and not a European one. Do I somehow flash it with a Chinese rom? If so - which one?!
Any help much appreciated!
Fred

I wont be much help on this subject, but you would certainly rebrand to a different region. There are a few threads around for that, Then use the region you want.

So, it is definitely Chinese model.
1. Huawei didn't tell you much info, just point to China.
2. Model that is selling in Europe can't have log suffix in build number. This is ROM for test purpose with logging and sending info to Huawei. Chinese sellers flashed it by inadvertence.
Don't look on it was sealed. It is too easy to seal box again.
Well, you can stay at C432 region, but I recommend flash release version like B198 using Firmware Finder.
Otherwise you can return to Chinese region ( C00 )
In this case you must get unlock code and unlock bootloader. Turn "oem unlock" in developer settings and remember that option is on world ROMs only.
Then you will able to rebrand.

Thanks for the input so far guys,
Would there be any benefit in putting a Chinese rom on? Am I right in thinking that China versions are getting Oreo at the moment? I'd rather not go through using the tool and rebranding (did it before with my Mate 8) so I think i'll try to work out the firmware finder app!
Thanks

I believe the Chinese versions are somewhat limited and cannot access some Google apps and services.

Good morning all,
I used the Firmware Finder to update to MHA-L29C432B198 and all good! Now I guess I just wait for the Oreo update to hit this region version. It needed a reset of course, so I had a fun evening of rebuilding and signing into all my apps while at the same time completely rebuilding my media centre pc which had refused to boot.. yay. Good times.

Well, even if you updated, you're still "out of region". So chances are you won't get any update to Oreo.
Oreo builds for C432 are named MHA-L29 8.0.0.xxx (C432) in Firmware Finder, same with MHA-L09.
So you could try updating to Oreo through FF.

Thanks, I'll keep checking the finder app. I'd rather stay on the c432 chain as I'm in England if that makes a difference. Is Oreo still in beta for 432? So far they all say not approved for installation.
