So back in the day with MM i unlocked the Bootloader with the DCunlocker since i had already registered my HuaweiID on their "wrong site" and it would ve been a pain to get through their horrible system.
( Which it is, just took me 2 hours deleting amd re registering accounts! Seriously, Huawei already sits on the short straw but this is seriously the worst experience i ever had with simply logging into a website )
Long story short i somehow lost the Bootloader code and upgrading to Nougat seems to have relocked the Bootloader.
So i went to Huawei s website and got the code from there.
Booted into fastboot put it in and it got rejected ( wrong code apparently)
OEM unlock is checked and not greyed out and I'm on stock L09C432B380.
Anyone got any advice? I'm out of options at this point.
Edit: And yes, i double checked all the numbers and IDs everything is correct. Though it's been a while since I've done the procedure so maybe I've missed a tiny detail
Bump ;
tldr: Bootloader code apparently "wrong" despite being obtained from Huaweis website.
Any ideas?
Sent from my FRD-L09 using XDA Labs
Don't know how to help, but I'm having same problems with how I registered too

Unfortunately i cant quite remember how i eventually got it to work but i think i logged into my original account by going on a different login server, "vmall7" instead of "vmall5"
or something similar, deleted the account and reregistered on the other one. Maybe even the chinese one.
There are a number of topics about that around here so the solution should be somewhere.
Doesnt help much though when your code just gets rejected
Edit: is there a possible connection between the way the Beta Nougat update "locked" instead of "relocked" the bootloader?
Because i did unlock the bootloader on EMUI 4 and just updated through the Hicare beta to Nougat without manually relocking first.
So ,after i surrendered to Huaweis Websites ( again ) i paid for the DC unlocker again and it did get me a different bootloader code...
And here i thought that code never changes... well apparently it does

Hi ; I have a 2nd Mate 9 Huawei ; the first came from china (AL00C00) and I rooted it without problems (except write in Chinese to have the code ...) and transformed into L29 C636, now in EMUI 8 - B362
The 2nd comes from the USA, it's a L29C432B198; to make faster updates and real backups (TWRP), I got Huawei bootloader unlock code and there is a problem: when I enter the code (by ADB, fastboot start then fastboot oem unlock) I an error response ; I have several times requested the code Huawei & it's still the same unlock code sent to me (which seems normal) ???? Has anyone ever had an identical problem and if so what solution ???

Yeah, I read here on XDA about this problem.
But first need to check.
Do you really have European phone? It came from USA and has EU ROM version. Different things...
What error do you have? Please, post screenshot.
What text in fastboot mode? FRP Lock?
Error it actually comes from Hong Kong, but is in Europe version (cf). Here is the error (cf)

It's bad. You have to write emails to Hong Kong's Huawei support or you can buy code via DC Unlocker and it will be different, but work.
I don't know reason why official code is incorrect. Probably, Huawei checks if phone is unlocking second time, as you told that it from Hong Kong (region C636) and rebranded to C432. So, it was unlocked already and someone got code before you. Just thoughts.

Could also try checking serial number in both Settings - About - Status and check IMEI in both phone and on box. Just to check that they match. And try using Huawei product ID generator.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/how-to-product-id-bricked-p9-t3561156
For Ante0 : I tried with IDGenerator, and I get the same code, which does not unlock the bootloader ??? :crying:
i bought 8 credits and get origianl unlock code from huawei.
Then, i'm went to rebanded my phone by using P20 Single to Dual.exe
###The phone still have NO DUAL SIM after rebranded from CLT-L04 to CLT-L29.
After that, the bootloader is showing """"""Phone locked""""""
i tried use the origianl code from huawei--------------FAIL

how i can get my bootloader unlock again?
And fastboot oem get-psid IMEI ,IMEI1,MEID were changed!!!!

NOW i'm warning anybody don't use funkyhuawei to rebrand your phone !!!
The result is same as using xda method , unless you don't need to PAY and locked your bootloader again.

sorry mate.... but it clearly says it on their guide
"Note: Bootloader code will change after using single to dual tool"
step 4 on this page https://funkyhuawei.club/tools/rebrandp20
which i believe is the guide you followed for rebranding

Yes, it said changed.
But not clearly say their is no method to get the unlock code agian or make it unlock again.
i would say Don't use Funky Huawei do rebrand job as well
So, is there a way which doesn't change the unlock code?
Already thinking getting the P20 was a total mistake.
I converted mine to dual and am only just finding out from this post I cant have it unlocked again. Are you saying huawei wont generate a new one for you?

USE XDA method----u can use the origial code unlock again/
use funky hauwei method----u have no ideas to unlock again in this moment.
i sent them 3 emails, they didnt answer this question, i think they know their method have problem of it.
About 1 mounth ago I transform my P20 Pro from single to dual sim with FunkyHuawei method. All gone well at first time ! And my phone handles and works with both sim, also in 4G!
They said me at once that after the procedure the bootloader will be blocked again and, for now, I can't unblock it with the old Huawei Key.
So no root and no TWRP.
They say me that in the future I'll can install Recovery and root the phone with a new tool, also with blocked bootloader .
Also I must say that FunkyHuawei method it's easier that do all by hand ! But, obviously, it costs a lot !

Can you say me the model and the firmware of your phone before and after rebrand ?
Before rebrand to dual sim your phone was C432 (international version) or what ?
Which version you use to rebrand? Always C432 (international version)?
This is important to know why some version have given problem to users .

I was single sim uk version CLT-L09 C782 and i rebranded to dual CLT-L29 C782.
Hello, I just put a claim in Paypal (I encourage people to do so), based on the fact that they have not notified the terminal block, once the change from singel to dual sim and attaching the direct instructions for the use of his tool, in which he does not notice, in any case, of that circumstance.
My model was the L09 and now it's the L29 (in both the European c432 version).
My claim in Paypal is that, by not telling the buyer of the terminal block and it is impossible (according to them) to find the new code, any problem can no longer go through the Huawei Technical Service (SAT) but for them and charging one and again.
I wanted to ask you if you know if using the Huawei PC tool we would return it to the original state (with the original unlock code, which would be useful in this case), to me the Samsung utilities (kies) saved me more than once .
Thank you very much.

Just got email back from huawei theyve given me the same code as before. I have responded by asking them to generate a new one.
To the post above, they do clearly state the bootloader code will change. And if you use the xda method apparently it can still be changed etc.
Hmmm
More on the bootloader code. The first time i rebranded i rebranded to CLTL29 but used the wrong tool and didnt use the actual dual converter.
When i used the dual converter having to use my bootloader code again, it did actually work.
Maybe it was luck i dont know but i still have 5 credits and would need 2 more to rebrand to c432 they ignored my email asking if they could credit me with 2 credits as I have already spent nearly £50 and the minimum I can buy is 5.
New email from huawei saying they have requested a new bootloader code for me. Fingers crossed.
The same happened to me: Huawei gave me the same code. Could you give me the Huawei contact email? Thank you very much. And good luck with the new code.

Huawei will always provide you with the same code, based on the original IMEI.
Try booting in fastboot and use this command : fastboot oem get-psid
If it works, it should return IMEI and Serial info, compare those with the ones from the retail box. ?
Thank you very much, I will compare it, although the IMEI does not change, I do not know what it will be for but it is a step forward.
My idea, after seeing that the Hisuite applications have nothing to do with the Samsung KIes (these are a lot better and if they leave your computer the same as the first day you bought it - I can certify it with my old Samsung Galaxy S3- ), is to wait for dc-unlocker to support our terminal and then re-unlock it.
Of funkey I do not expect anything, unless you charge us everything you can in case of "disaster" of our mobile.

IMEI is not changed in the OS (About Screen), but if it's the same case as the rebrand with FH for Mate 10 Pro, then most likely that fastboot command will reveal a different IMEI.
If that's the case, then probably the only way to make the unlock code work is to restore your original oeminfo.
We've been lucky with Mate 10, because DC-Unlocker works, so we could get another unlock code for 4 €, but that doesn't work on P20.
