[Guide] Huawei P9 & P9 Plus Refurbish Guide

!!!WARNING!!!
IN THE HUAWEI ANDROID N BETA FIRMWARE, DOWNGRADE IS UNAVAILABLE.
I HAVE TESTED IT ON MY PHONE, IF YOU TRYING TO DOWNGRADE, IT WILL TOLD YOU FIRMWARE VERIFICATION ERROR.
This thread will change to a small guide of my tool.
[FOR REFURBISH PURPOSE / WITH Official Recovery]
Requirement:
Computer and P9 connected to the same WiFi network (locally accessable).
Step:
1. Run the tool, select firmware version and press [Start]
2. On your phone, set proxy IP to your computer's IP, and the proxy port to 41279

}
3. Enter Settings -> Update -> Menu -> Download latest full package
(This tool cannot get incremental update package, so it would not give you any update info before click 'Download latest full package')
4. Then, you will get a update around 1.70 GB - 1.80GB, that is the regular size for full rom with pre-installed data.
(If the update package is aroung 1.50GB that means the customize version is incorrect for your device)
5. After fully flash in recovery, you can press Volume Up + Power enter official recovery and do a Factory Reset.
[FOR UNBRICK PURPOSE / WITHOUT Official Recovery]
Due to the limitation of Huawei HiSuite, It would NOT flash the pre-installed data, like themes or icons.
So, following procedure is for unbrick ONLY. If you want fully flash the firmware, you need to follow next reply.
Requirement:
1. Your device can enter FASTBOOT.
(If that partition was broken, this tools cannot help you anymore.)
2. Huawei HiSuite (Click Here to Download)
3. A computer that have a stable internet connection.
Step:
1. Start the tool, select correct firmware version, and click [Start]
2. Start HiSuite, Set proxy IP to 127.0.0.1, proxy port to 41279
3. Click [System Recovery] in the right bottom corner of HiSuite
4. Follow the procedure provided by Huawei to make your devices into FASTBOOT Mode.
(Power off -> Connect your device to the computer running HiSuite -> Hold Volume Down + Power button till it enter FASTBOOT)
5. Waiting for HiSuite to recover your Huawei P9.

As I tested before, that version may during internal testing for release and that build, SafetyNet related function (like Android Pay) may not working properly.

Can I with "How to fully reflash" method change the brand of the phone ? Actually I'm running EVA-L09C55B141 and I've no update to do

Actually, you need change oeminfo partition first, to make the Updater can fetch the oem data files correctly.
Currently, you can follow this thread or SRK Tool to change the oeminfo from C55 to C432, and flash other firmware.
If you want change to other country and/or operator's brand, I'll write a guide later depend on my experience.

Currently, My tool only provide the full firmware flash option, because the OTA package may depend on different version. It may support force OTA in the future.

Hi man, thanks for you reply.
So what I've to do is: 1. unlock bootloader 2. flash a special recovery 3. root the phone 4. flash the new oem data 5. flash the new firmware (compatible with the oem) and restore recovery + bootloader ?
Am I right ?
In all this, will I lose the warranty ?

Only one thing is incorrect , Step 5, using my tool + HiSuite restore to official firmware.
As I tested before, follow unbrick method, will automatically flash official recovery and restore the lock status.
As far as I know, that would not avoid the warranty.

Thanks for the tool man. Works great

Thanks a lot for work!
Hi man, I had c02 and I debranded to c432 using oem. Now I've c432b170 received by official ota. If I want rollback to c02b133( is it the latest official update for vodafone?) is it enough to use your software ore I'd to use oem again?

Yep, it is enough to use my tool to go back. Due to my tool only have full firmware listed, the C133 might not be the newest version. If not, the OTA is waiting after flash.[emoji14]
However, you need restore the oeminfo first for full restore, because you phone would get oem data partition based on it when you download latest full package with my tool.
Due to TWRP is essential for changing oeminfo, flash twice is essential for full refurbish. Firstly, use HiSuite to flash official system and recovery. Then, use the phone itself to restore one data.

Sorry i'm new user so i can't quote discussion for 10 reply):
I'd like to roll back to c02b133 from c432b170
So let's see if I've understood : flash vodafone firmware using your tool - unlock bootloader - install twrp - flash oeminfo and reset system..

No, the correct step is, unlock your phone -> flash recovery -> restore oeminfo -> flash firmware by HiSuite (it will lock your phone and flash official recovery automatically) -> flash again by phone for full restore oem data partition.
After all the steps, you can fully go back to stock firmware.
Format system to clean it is optional.
Cheers

Sorry but do not understand...
Correct steps : unlock your phone (unlock bootloader?) - flash recovery (install twrp?) - restore oeminfo ( flash oeminfo.zip by twrp?) - flash firmware by hisuite ( connect usb my phone to pc hisuite without your tool? ) - flash again by phone for full restore oem data partition ( what do i flash ? vodafone firmware by your tool?).

Everything About Anti Roll-back [Whyred]

Hi everyone
Xiaomi added Anti roll-back to latest Stable/Beta ROMs and many users bricked their phones because of it, i unlocked my bootloader yesterdays and started testing everything about Anti, and here is what i found so far:
As of right now, anything Beta 8.7.6 and above has it, and for Stable 9.5.19.0 and above, check Xiaomi announcement about it, in 2nd post you will find the last Miui builds without Anti Roll-back
you can flash TWRP again
you can Root Anti ROMs with Magisk or Disable Encryption
you can switch from CN builds to Global builds or vise versa
you can switch between all anti 4 builds just fine, like from 8.7.12 to 9.5.19.0 or anything with anti 4
you can flash any AOSP/LOS based ROM
you can flash anti 4 fastboot ROMs
based on fastboot script we might get anti 5 in the future
how to bypass anti roll back lock in fastboot and flash/run anything
1- TWRP flashing method:
Boot Twrp or Redwolf using “fastboot boot XYZ.img”
Copy img to device then flash Image file of XYZ.img again from recovery.
Flash Lazyflasher Or Magisk
Or you can just flash any AOSP/LOS based ROM
or check #6 to unlock bootloader commands
2- Switching from CN Beta to Global Beta
Download Global Beta 8.7.12 Fastboot Here or Global Stable 9.5.19.0 Fastboot Here
Make sure to backup your data first
Run flash_all.bat to flash Global build and wipe everything
Wait for system to boot up, and everything should be fine
3- Flashing Custom ROMs
Flashing AOSP/LOS ROMs should be easy, flash twrp, wipe data & flash ROM
Flashing Miui based ROMs is a bit tricky, you have to make sure they didnt include bootloader inside the Zip, check for firmware-update inside Zip's before flashing or just ask other users
4- based on fastboot new script we might get anti 5 in the future, so dont keep flashing newer bootloader/modem unless ROM developer tell you to do so
here is how the new script works:
it check for Anti vlaue
if Anti is smaller than 4, then it flashes normally, but your device will be anti 4 also
if Anti is 4, it flashes dummy to anti roll-back pass, then proceed to flash ROM, after flashing is done you will have the same Anti 4 vlaues
if Anit is bigger than 4, like 5 or something else, the script will abort and tell you to get Anti 4 ROM
5- Unlocking Fastboot:
This method let you flash twrp or run fastboot commands again
Download fastboot-unlock-anti-4-whyred from attachments or Drive
Flash from fastboot running this command
fastboot flash antirbpass dummy.img
Now flash twrp, run any fastboot command

you have to flash dummy/unlock every time you go into fastboot, or ARB will block your commands

The Last builds without Anti Roll-back
The last builds without anti roll-back
Recovery/TWRP builds
Stable is Miui 9 9.5.17.0
Beta is Miui 10 8.7.5
Fastboot Builds
Stable is Miui 9 9.5.17.0
Beta is Miui 10 8.7.5

and this just in case

K cool Abdul?

You are legendary.. Keep it up

So, I'm on 8.7.5 right now with twrp and magisk and I'd like to keep updating as new builds come out. Can I just do what I always do? Download 8.7.12 rom, flash with twrp, flash lazyflasher and magisk?
Also would flashing other stuff risk bricking, like camera2 API zip, or YouTube vanced?

8.7.5 doesn't have Anti-rollback feature while 8.7.12 (All roms with 8.7.6 n above) has it
So u better dont update to newer versions of Official MIUI firmware to avoid issues

Yes I know, but I don't want to be stuck in 8.7.5 forever because I doubt Xiaomi will go back on this. I like Miui and I don't have any intention of downgrading either, I just want to be able to keep TWRP and root.

If you don't have a full stock rom on your phone and you lock your device you will brick it. So you need to have a full stock rom ( you can get the full stock rom here: http://en.miui.com/a-234.html and you can also flash it with this tool) and then you can lock the bootloader.
P.s. is not needed to write in all thread about the tool, one is enough i have instant notification mail enabled.

How To Guide Switch from EEA to Global (or other region) without unlocking bootloader

Hello Community,
I wanted to make this post because there is some wrong information or insufficient information regarding that switching regions betweens roms requires you to unlock the bootloader.
I found a way it works, I updated from MIUI 12.5.2.0 EEA to 12.5.4.0 (then to 12.5.5.0 ota) Global Stable using XiaomiToolV2 (unofficial Tool).
These are the following Steps:
1. Download XiaomiToolV2
2. I did download the rom from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/vayu/ (while the tool checks the files integrity, download with your own risk)
3. Enable Developer Options and then USB Debugging
4. Open XiomiToolV2 and select your device first, then follow the instructions and after that boot to recovery and select MiAssistant
5. In XiomiToolV2 select Local MIUI/Rom Option and add your file (Incase it doesnt allow you to add the file put the in file name and open)
6. It should verify the file now and pushes it on the device (this can take a while, be patient and dont restart the device on your own
After reaching 100% the phone should reboot automatically to the system
I hope it did work out for you

Hi @Areasu, when you switch regions using this method, does it wipe your data? I relock bootloader using std oem method after flashing rom of different region, data is always wiped.

My data wasnt wiped it installed like an update

Non-stop error.

So you do not need to unlock the bootloader? I understand that XiomiToolV2 is to be installed on the computer and the phone should be connected to the computer, right?

Yes, but in the tool the option Official Xiaomi Rom it tells me *Requirements: Unlocked Bootloader*. But when I use Local ZIP File method it works.
I see you had ghost touch issue, some people said it disappeared on 12.5.5.0

I still have this touch problem. Though it had been quiet for the past week

I understand that you have updated MIUI 12.5.2.0 EEA to 12.5.4.0 with xiaomitoolv2 and the update to 12.5.5.0 appeared on the phone just like that?

It may also be possible to download 12.5.4.0 Global to the phone and install via ota through the option select the update package

I was able to install rom Global 12.5.5.0 as you wrote, except that I had to do wipe data because the system would not start and it kept going back to recovery. Only after the wipe date did it work

Thank you so much for posting this, it was really fast and easy to understand. I really didn't want to be on EU but thought I'd have to unlock bootloader and wipe my data so I'm glad this worked. (^‿^)
Ps: I used the recovery rom not the fastboot rom maybe you should specify what you used.

I think yes, recovery didnt wipe my data. Im not even sure if fastboot roms from other regions will allow flash. This guide is only for flashing recovery roms from different regions. (google says fastboot rom requires unlocked bootloader)

I found a way it works, I updated from MIUI 12.5.2.0 EEA to 12.5.4.0 (then to 12.5.5.0 ota) Global Stable using XiaomiToolV2 (unofficial Tool).
These are the following Steps:
1. Download XiaomiToolV2
2. I did download the rom from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/vayu/ (while the tool checks the files integrity, download with your own risk)
3. Enable Developer Options and then USB Debugging
4. Open XiomiToolV2 and select your device first, then follow the instructions and after that boot to recovery and select MiAssistant
5. In XiomiToolV2 select Local MIUI/Rom Option and add your file (Incase it doesnt allow you to add the file put the in file name and open)
6. It should verify the file now and pushes it on the device (this can take a while, be patient and dont restart the device on your own
After reaching 100% the phone should reboot automatically to the system
I hope it did work out for you

I followed your instructions and changed from EEA to GLOBAL using the latest, RECOVERY, official ROM for my POCO X3 PRO.
Thank you!

Are Google apps and Playstore working properly?
Has anyone tried this method to switch from global to Indonesian rom?

Hi everyone! I am getting an ERROR in my Poco X3 Pro
I tried to do the same using XiaomiTool V20.7.28 (latest), from 12.5.4.0 EEA to 12.5.7.0 GLOBAL as the updater suggested. But for some reason I am getting this adb "sideload error status 1" like this image. My battery is 98%. Any ideas?

If the bootloader is locked none of these tools will work.
Maybe Mi pcsuite but you say "problem signature".
Mi pcsuite (Miphone assistant) must be used from recovery.
Where did you download the rom and which one?
Have you tried erasing the data from recovery?

thanks for replying
the file was from the phone itself the official rom miui 13.0.1.0.sjgmixm
how i know the name because my wife has same phone her phone didnt accept the file but my phone did update it
my wife's phone gave her that error in file signature and ask to redownload it
i had this issue but i don't know why it accepted it yesterday i thought they fixed the issue
i erased the data still caught in loop
recovery and fastboot works but no sign for booting up
mi assistant from recovery doesn't read the phone asks to connect the device when trying to update flash
r.flash it asked to try normal before switch or couldn't retrieve rom signature

Are you sure of the version of your phone?
Have you tried with Mi assistant version 4?
Maybe based on what was displayed on the phone, it's always written global even if you have another version of rom like EEA (for Europe or others).
What matters are the penultimate 2 letters.
EUXM=EEA Europe
MIXM=Global
TRXM=Turkey
RUXM=Russia
INXM=India
JPXM=Japan
IDXM=Indonesia
TWXM=Taiwan
CNXM=China
DEV=Public Beta​

then updating 13 it says error checking firmware. sorry can't flash upgrade to unofficial
i just translate it with google translate
when updating with 12
it says unknown error 2015

thats the version of my phone and i have the latest update was working on my phone with same version

Have you tried with Mi assistant version 4?
https://mega.nz/file/zpURDRbD#T2qfGO7j6F90brJ033xfkSZl6fyR2Yih9zrdjxwIOM8

Another tool (choose bricked device).
it seems to me that this tool displays the rom you are on and automatically downloads the version(choose SURYA _Factory).
