No, thought there could be another solution. But it doesn't seem so..

I have the same issue on P20 lite, after the update the sensors doesn't work anymore.
I have a locked bootloader and tryng to roolback with a previose version, with dload metod, but non easy to find the correct verson due a huge firmaware for P20
I contact even the customer support and only thing that said to me: "Please try with a reset or use you warranty to change it" (for me it's the second phone with the same problem)

How to fix null IMEI 000000000000000 ?

Hello guys, it's me again haha.
I haven't had so much trouble with any phone but the Mate 9. After I tried to restore my device to stock and it didn't work out and my phone didn't start anymore, so I made my MHA-L29C432 to a MHA-L29C636 Chinese Variant, so i can access the phone.. now my problem is, that I've no more IMEI and I can't find a way to restore it... I tried to update via Firmware Finder from Playstore; didn't work out because of different Model (obviously). Then I tried out mankindtw's method from here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108) and selected the latest B182-ROM, but now I still don't have any IMEI or Modelnumber, just NRD90M-test-keys and null imei.... I just want to get this damn phone to stock and sell it because it's driving me nuts. Does somebody now a way how to figure it out? Or is the only way funkyhuawei? Is it 100% guaranteed that funkyhuawei works?
Thank you very much and I hope that somebody is able to help me...

When you rebranded you 1st "rebrand" to the region you want, then after it was successful, you are supposed to go in the program again and run "update- to same phone" and run the program again. That should take care of all the problems

Honor 8 hard brick

Hello.
As many here my phone updated and soft-bricked. I tried to recover it but i guess i did it with wrong method and I hard-bricked it. Than by using dc unlocker phoenix and .app files provided by the online shop where i bought the phone i recovered it back to soft-brick, but now with the red warning message "your device has failed verification and may not work properly". Since than nothing else works - not Dload method (every update either fails or hard-bricks the phone) nor forcing updates through the dc unlocker. While it is hard bricked it does show up in fastboot device list, but that is all. Any ideas what else could I do? Please don't suggest dload method as I have stated above that it is not working.
Use rollback package to Emui 4.1
What do you mean by that? Flash it through fastboot or through the sd card?

thanks for your reply. The problem is that this method so far has not worked. I suspect it has to do with the fact that it is a FRD-AL00 model to which the seller has flashed FRD-L19. In the end this means that neither of rollback packages work. Plus replying to the last comment also - so far I am stuck as I do not have access to dc unlocker phoenix anymore and I am not willing to spend yet another 15 eur without clear plan what to do next. Any ideas how to bring the phone out of the hard brick aside from dc unlocker?

If either rollback to marshmellow dload of Al00 & FRD-L19 ? then use the DC unlocker client 2 . download and see there are some tutorials in youtube.:good:

Hi. To be honest I gave up and took it to service centre and they fixed it. Never told me how though.
I did send them the firmware that was provided for me by the manufacturer so I guess the answer lays somewhere in correctly flashing the correct firmware using some software that I do not have. Or something.
I am sorry that I cannot add anything more substantial to the discussion - I can post some information about what is on the phone now if that helps.

I have Honor 8 FRD-AL10 came with FRD-L19C636B360 from China.
After a notification for new update which I started, the phone bricked. Tried eRecovery, but unsuccessful. Couldn't receive the package from the server.
The only thing that worked out a bit was "dload" method with AL00 version from the link with fabric firmware http mega.nz........
But the phone starts to the language and region section and never runs correctly to the desktop. Always rotates about first "start screen".
No other software works out, tried almost everything.
Rommco05 said:
Have u unlocked bootloader? If no I think isnt other way than service center
edit: or try DC Phoenix tool

I have not unlocked bootloader. I tried DC Phoenix but when I flashed firmware it said "your device has failed verification and may not work properly". Had others things to do at the time and tool expired and I want to know what to do before buying it again.
Solution:
Bought credits on FunkyHuawei and contacted support. The problem was that my phone model was FRD which doesnt exist. It should be FRD-L19, FRD-AL10 etc. Tools which are available for download on FunkyHuawei didnt work because this wasnt a common problem. But their support is excellent. They will help you till you get your phone working without asking for extra money.

Problem to update Huawei Mate 9

Hello, i’m new around here and i’m having a big problem with my Mate 9, model MHA-L09, with the official european ROM MHA-L09C432B186
The problem is that in this ROM the native Huawei apps are not available, there's no Theme stores, and not even Huawei ID. I can't change the ROM and i can't bootload it because the code that i receive doesn't work, so i can't update the phone. I don't know what to do anymore. I tested every tool, and my friends tried and failed too. The phone works normally, perfectly even. I just can't update nor modify anything.
Please, would someone help me?
My sincere thanks. :crying:

I need to rollback (Honor 8), HELP!

I have a seemingly stupid but still annoying problem. As many of you know Android 8 + EMUI 8 came out this summer and I have updated my Honor8. Everything works well, even better (especially with regard to the battery) apart from a problem, quite annoying. I have seen that everyone around complains about the same problem, so it is clear that both a build bug and not a local problem.
Basically ... the bluetooth link with the multimedia system of my car doesn't work as it should, while it worked well with the 7.0.
Tracknames, music infos disappears, sometimes it connects regularly, starting the music, sometimes nothing happens, sometimes the music passes from the car speakers to smartphone (!!)... in short, manage the music in the car It has become a big problem!
I tried all possible options; reset pairing, reset bluetooth, clear cache, activate the developer options to control some low-level aspects of bluetooth, and finally installed Bluetooth Auto Connect which also has several advanced options. Nothing works. In the meantime an update of 8.0 has been released (mine is the buiold 521). The update came out in September ... maybe (MAYBE) this update fixes all bluetooth issues (but i don't have any detailed info about). Until today I have not received any updates and normally I check new version regularly every day. At this point I decided to return to Nougat!
And here the adventure begins!
I CANNOT IN ANY WAY do the downgrade.
What I tried:
- through HiSuite. The "back to previous version" option appears random (rarely); normally the program tells me "the system is up to date". Once appeared I tried to run the procedure, but after the decompression it gives me an error "error updating".
- by standard Rollback procedure. Using a microSD and putting the full version of Nougate in the dload folder. The installation starts but stops almost immediately with the same "update cannot be applied" error.
At this point I am desperate. I cannot update Oreo, I can't go back to Nougat and meanwhile the bluetooth still doesn't work with my car. Remember that before Oreo, everything worked very well!
What can I do? Can you help me?
Thank you

Region: EU

Build: 8.0.0.521 (C432)
Previous Build: don't remember. It was Nougat, and I've upgraded around the first week of September. From that day I haven't received/applied any patch, because nothing appears until now.
This morning I've tried again with HiSuite. As usual it says I'm running the latest version and it doesn't offer any downgrade option .

The more you know...
Finally I've decide to try updating to 8.0.0.562. After a month of tries, fails (damn Huawei and his stupid update system), errors and a lot of other stupid things, I was finally able to update my Honor hoping the latest version will fix all the problems. It was a enormous waste of time (searching around internet)... but in the end I found a method described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/help/p20-pro-bricked-t3868085#4And if you go ahead you should find the correct firmware link (on a Russian site). Although, IMHO, failing with the classic method was due to the impossibility or some bugs in the update system, to unpack the update files on sdcard. So the solution seems to be to leave both the zip and the unpacked folder.The problems with bluetooth remain, but I hope that now there is not to be crazy applying next updates. ATTENTION: the method above is NOT valid for rollback! If you try, you'll brick your Honor.
And finally I've taken an important decision... for me this is the last Huawei/honor device. Next time I'll go to another brand, with a serious update system.

When i am come back home. I will try.
I have also order a New sim
I have same issue since latest carrier services update. Can barely make a call since yesterday.
Sounds like the update disabled VoLTE. Check *#*#4636#*#* Phone Information section and look to see if VoLTE provisioned is toggle to the left (off). If so, it sounds like a carrier profile update broke it. You may have to go back to old firmware.
Thx u i will check When i come back home.
I hope your right.
But i sûre update suck because troubles come after.
It s difficult to Come-back Old firmware ?

On all Google Pixels, you can downgrade to any firmware you like as long as you accept that you'll have to wipe the phone. The only exception to this rule was when the Pixel 6 Pro was updated to Android 13 Stable since the old firmware's bootloader had a big exploit.

forum.xda-developers.com
Either my instructions there or Official Google Android Flash Tool (OEM Unlocking needs to be toggled on - you do not have to manually unlock the bootloader - their site will do that on its own). You're welcome!
I Really appreciate. Thank you.
I have the same problems and more in Romania, on Vodafone. I think the modem is completely broken.
You shouldn't have to downgrade or root to fix any kind of problem. How Google can release crap like this is beyond my understanding.
I had the exact same problem, I asked RMA because it was impossible to call someone.first they refuse saying to me that an update will solve the problem but I insist and now with the other phone no more problem.i think there is a batch with broken modem

I dont know why.
Pb solved
