Question about rebrand mate9 - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

Hi Guys,
I'm thinking about rebrand my mate 9 Chinese version to an international version.
I found that there is a thread in development forum about all the OEM info backup from twrp.
I just wonder that if I restored one of them in twrp, can I simply use erecovery to download and flash the latest version of the related emui?
Anybody tested it?
And I am on oreo, if I flash the nougat oeminfo, will ercovery work properly?
Thanks.

im using international rom, and flashing chinese rom...
so i think its possible for you too...
as long as you made your backup using twrp or cwm youll be fine....please made a backup first
method used
flash directly from local update
if fail, you must root your phone before you can flash
flash boot.img, recovery.img, system.img , cust.img using fastboot
you should be ok after flashing this
if bricked or cannot boot, reinstall your cwm or twrp, and install your backup
I have the same situation. I made some trials and here are the results;
I was on Chinese version B250. I udated manually to Chinese version B260 and this was successful.
I unlocked my bootloader successfully.
All trials to flash the International version B324 with Lollipop and (EMUI 3.1) have failed. I even tried with a relocked bootloader but still the same. No root or custom recovery; all stock.
Of note that I could successfully flash the International version B142 which is a Kitkat and (EMUI 3.0) but could never update to the succeeding update OTA although it is being downloaded successfully by the Huawei updater.
All flashing was through virusplus Multi-tool
These are my observations. If anyone has a better input regarding fully flashing a Chinese PE-TL10 with an International firmware with working OTA updates later on then please share it.
Thank you
Hello
I have honor 6+ pe TL10 chinese version EMUI3.1_PE - TL_10-6.1.1
how to put an international version ?

my phone

Hi guys, I’m from China , and I have the phone P9 EVA-AL00(3G/32G) dual sim
I’ve unlocked my phone and flashed the ROM B168 version edited by Kangvip who is famous in Huawei forum, before I flashed my phone I followed the instruction backup the “System” “cust” and “boot” totally three folders of original ROM (also B168 version) with TWRP,
I think this can help us go back to the original System and OTA to the newest version.

Could you send me the method for Unlocking Bootloader, Installing Recovery, Rooting Phone, and then maybe installing a custom ROM if you have time? I have the EVA-AL00 also. I would like to install the European variant software. BETA Nougat 7.0 and 5.0 EMUI. Please let me know. Thanks again.

Has anyone flashed a Chinese Mate 9 to a European ROM ?

Has anyone done this?
I have a Chinese 6GB/128GB ROM version and wondered if there were any advantages to doing this?
Thanks.
I think here is no way to flash any Firmware on Mate 9, because Huawei has blocked flashing Firmwares in Android 7.
Few has already done this, look into FunkyHuawei post to dig for more info.
I have done this, although I had to get the bootloader unlocked, flash the relevent MHA-L29 oeminfo file (from another MHA-L29) using TWRP and use FunkyHuawei to flash the firmware. So it's doable, just complicated.

[Need Help] I need to install Oreo (EMUI 8.0) Stock ROM in Mate 9 using TWRP 3.2.1-0

Hi folks. Sorry if this topic has been covered before. I really tried to find threads with a solution but I wasn't able to get specific answers. Kindly help me out.
This is the current status of my Huawei Mate 9 - MHA-l29
My Huawei Mate 9, MHA- L29 is working okay, aside from a few bugs I noticed after upgrading to Oreo (EMUI 8.0) using TWRP last year (a previous version)
I am running Android 8.0 Oreo. The version reads System 8.0.0.42(00YC) when I check in the "About Phone Section". When I check this version using HiSuite, it tells me that is the official one.
I have unlocked the bootloader FRP...basically everything is unlocked.
I have installed TWRP version 3.2.1-0
I suspect I may have accidentally wiped out the recovery for my device, so if I tried to do a factory reset, it may not work. That is why I wanted to just do a fresh installation of STOCK ROM for Oreo.
Now this is what I need help to do.
I wanted to do a fresh installation of the stock ROM for Oreo (8.0) for my Mate 9 device. I figure stock ROM will be more stable and it will be the official one anyway.
The reason I want to do a fresh install is because I noticed the current version has a few bugs that kept recurring whenever I did a factory reset (issues with themes, calendar, etc).
I wanted to know if I can use TWRP 3.2.1 (currently installed) to do an installation of Oreo stock ROM for my mate 9 using maybe the SD Card. I saw somewhere that I can simply copy the files to the SD card and then use TWRP 3.2.1-0 to do an installation.
If the above is possible, what do I need to do?
If it is not possible to use TWRP 3.2.1, what can I do instead so that I install a new stock ROM without bricking the phone? Please assist.
Thank you in advance for your time and help.

Going from EMUI 8 China to EMUI 8 India

Hey everyone! Recently I read the EMUI 8 thread for BLN-L22 and I am wondering how can I flash from the China version of EMUI 8 to Indian version. I already am on EMUI 8. Thread was closed so I am making this post. I downloaded all the files from that thread i.e. OEM info of BLN-L22 and the update zips. Now should I flash OEM info first and then ROM through hurupdater? I really don't like using HWOTA 8 as it never works for me. I read about people complaining about incomplete installs and I have found that always happens on flashing via hurupdater. But if you first wipe system data cache and dalvik first I have found that it installs complete firmware. So should I first wipe my device and then flash OEM info or flash first and then wipe proceeded by installation via Hurupdater. Also can anyone detail me on HWOTA method? Thanks for your help. Also there is no FRP lock in Chinese firmware. How will this affect me?
