determine model number (701 or 702 or 703)

Hi,
If you know the link to the website where one can input the IMEI and get an output of the model number, that would be much appreciated.
Also, a command or software, to see which frequencies this device uses/supports would be good (as this can also confirm the model as 701 or 702 or 703 have different frequencies).
Thanks!

I know for a fact that If the Logo on the back says Honor then it's a 703L. The only way I know to tell the difference between the 701L and 702L is to look at the bands when you're buying it. Here are the differences between the 701L, 702L and 703L
Model: GEM-701L
GSM: band 2/3/5/8
UMTS: band 1/2/5/8
LTE-TDD: band 38/40
LTE-FDD: band 1/3/7/20
Wi-Fi: 2.4 GHz/5GHz
Model: GEM-702L
GSM: band 2/3/5/8
UMTS: band 1/2/5/8
TD-SCDMA: band 34/39
LTE-TDD: band 38/39/40/41
LTE-FDD: band 1/3/7/8/28
Wi-Fi: 2.4 GHz/5GHz
Model: GEM-703L
GSM: band 2/3/5/8
UMTS: band 1/2/5/8
TD-SCDMA: band 34/39
LTE-TDD: band 38/39/40/41
LTE-FDD: band 1/3/7
Wi-Fi: 2.4 GHz/5GHz

Thanks.
At the back of mine it says
(logo)
Huawei
GEM-702L
But any sys info software says 703L for model # and build #.
That's why the questions
re IMEI to derive model # from
as well as
re test software to read the frequencies from the hardware capabilities.
This would be conclusive.
Is there any other/better method?

confirm model # by hardware info:
dial *#*#2846579159#*#*
then look at
veneer info
s/h version
hardware version

It seems like you own a 702L.

The back cover cannot be used to determine the model #.
Only a frequency capability test would be conclusive.
It is already a bit of a matter of belief to go by hardware version (as it could be faked perhaps).
However, the model # and build # any sys info displays should also be consistent with the hardware info, and for my device that is not so, as written before.
So I wonder, if it displays in "about phone" emui 2.0 and android 4.3 as well as resolution 540 x 960,
while in HiSuite it shows different info: "emui 3.0" and android 5.0, how can that be?
Also, if I put my IMEI # into https://imeidata.net it comes up with 'prototype model'?!?!

I think you're having the 702L model as I"ve the same "About Phone" showing the wrong info like yours until I flashed the CUST.IMG from my stock 702L.
The "model" and "build" info in About Phone is changeable by the way so may not be a real indication.
From you description you're either a 702L or 701L owner because these 2 models still stay at EMUI 3.0/Android 5.0 whereas 703L already at EMU 3.1/Android 5.1.1

Thanks for the confirmation (and sorry for not having been around here for so long).
Can you tell where one could get the CUST.IMG from a stock 702L?
Also, is there a way to use the developer option 'upgrade via SD card' with this CUST.IMG or any other (cyanogen, etc)?
Where can one get the latest (EMU 3.1/Android 5.1.1 and later) clean cyanogen or better suitable system for 702L?
thx

You can use Huawei extractor software to extract the stock CUST.IMG from the stock 702L ROM file.
'Upgrade via SD' is meant to work with stock complete UPDATE.APP that is usually packaged in the stock ROM zip file, not custom IMGs.
There is another thread by "aj" on upgrading to 5.1.1 for the 702L - do refer to that guide which is quite comprehensive and detailed. If I read correctly it's now the latest B112 version of 5.1.1

Depending on your model of 702L, the cust for your phone is in the universal cust mod. It's the cust/hw/neeu, seas, or spcseas folder inside the cust (my 702L uses the spcseas folder.) Whatever model you have is which cust folder the phone uses.

Great advise, thanks kpcheang2!
Still need to find out, how to go from GEM-703LV100R001C001B005T01 to B112 / 5.1.1 - it seems to require an intermediate step, and am not sure where to get the right img from...any ideas?
Also, if this makes the 702 a 703, will that influence the frequencies?
Many thanks

Would GEM-703LV100R001C001B005T01 be a b005 on my 702L ?
Does the GEM-703L_EMUI3.1_Android5.1_V100R001C233B109.zip or the STOCK_B112_ROOTED_GAPPS.zip contain the universal cust mod?
It was not in "GEM-702L Cust Installer.zip" (8,087,371 b), or is it wrong to look for a file called cust.img?
For the gentle rooting as described here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-x2/general/root-mediapad-honor-x2-supersu-kingroot-t3149326
where can one find the "super_boot.img"?
Some files were lost, so this needs to be rooted for recovery with minimal writes to the internal storage. Will try also sdk mount and partition snapshot if poss, any ideas?

You can refer to this guide from "ajsmsg78" for going up to B112.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-x2/development/rom-stock-b106-gapps-t3230585
Your "GEM-703LV100R001C001B005T01" - is this the ROM on your X2 ? If it is then yours is the 703L model which makes it easier to upgrade to B112/5.11 per "ajsmsg78" guide.
If yours was a 702L there is little impact to the LTE frequency based on my own experience, at least in the area where I used my X2.

From the "GEM-703LV100R001C001B005T01" stated in your post it seems you're having the 703L, not the 702L unless you've modified the model number earlier internally.

TO add on.....if you're having the 703L you need not worry about applying custom CUST.IMG - this is mainly for 702L users like me or other 701L users. The Huawei official ROM upgrades upon which "ajsmsg78" has modded and shared is based on the 703L ROMs published by Huawei.

Mate 8 - 3g/4g Sim Card Slot - "Locked"? - Summarized

Firstly let me apologize for duplicating the content of several other topics. This post will intend to summarize the issue in order to provide better visibility to anyone trying to help.
To start off, I have the same problem with my Mate 8.
The Issue
The Huawei Mate 8 has two Sim Card Slots: one supports 3g/4g and the other supports only 2g. That's how it's build.
When you pun in non-China Telecom card into *either* of the slots a message pops up saying that 3g/4g is only supported on China Telecom: https://tj6nvw-bn1306.files.1drv.com/y3p0MIG3qgLckpGbYHxgH70oReY058UmP2hfiLYG-HZPelszWa8XkA5gqwtKldaPY54l0lK91_XhjKz149GjRW6H06HJyAdEN7dXS8GzEWZyDvEiUeg7moZtmEGVG3nFj-qqywRCQTzYESnpN5IGyuD7w/Screenshot_2016-01-26-14-08-52%20%281%29.png?psid=1
More Details
It is possible to change the active 3g/4g card slot via settings configuration.
You can use 2g capabilities in *any* of the physical slots (via configuration above)
When you insert 2 sim cards only one of them is active. The device does *not* recognize the second card. It is possible to switch between the two cards, but only one of them can be active.
The problem is reported only for CL00 & TL00 models (and not the AL10 or L29 ones).
What is tried already?
I've tried and confirm all the items above.
Did factory reset.
I've loaded the International Software to Mate 8 from this topics
The Chinese Telecom message no longer appears on the International Software, however the slot still doesn't work.
Did factory reset on the international Software as well.
Tried to unlock it via DC-Unlocker - it is not possible. The "Unlock" button is grayed out.
The Sim Status in DC-Unlocker is "unlocked" however it shows only one IMEI number, where the phone has 2 IMEI numbers if you check it via *#06#
Guys report the same problem with Verizon cards, where Verizon and China Telecom networks are similar.
Thoughts/Suggestions
I talked to the DC Unlocker guys from the support and they advised me it might be from the Firmware. Even I've installed the international one and don't rule out that this might be the root issue of the issue as I don't know the origins of the International software.
Any suggestions?
Update 1: I got feedback from DC Unlocker Support that the phone is most likely "unlocked". Still I'm not convinced that both sim slots are unlocked.
Update 2: Another suggestion from DC Unlocker Support: If device support frequencies (EU) and if they are different from China (they might be) then, yes it should be possible to solve this with correct firmware if such exists. You should check first original specifications of device for china networks, then compare them to network that you want to use it with.
Update 3: Clarification that problem exists only for CL00 & TL00 models (and not the AL10 or L29) (thanks @jbmc83)

u have to add that this is only pertaining to the china telecom locked models CL00 & TL00, and not the AL10 or L29 models

I have AL10 and verizon sim wont work.
Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-AL10 using Tapatalk

is it only verizon or also other carriers?
edit: ah thats a different reason though. both al10 and l29 mate 8 versions are gsm and not cdma based. thats different from the cl00 and tl00 variants being carrier locked to specific network providers...
im betting ur al10 will work just fine with tmobile or att

For CL00 user, it seems to me that the international(eu) "oeminfo" file is the key for flashing L29 firmware, described as this topic.
Does anyone put "oeminfo" file of L29 anywhere??

Even putting different roms on this phone doesn't change the fact the main aim is locked in CDMA / LTE mode. It's a hardware thing or something these different roms can't edit.

Flash firmware on lumia 1520

I'Ve just read that a new version of windows phone internals will be released in a few days. I've got a lumia 1520 rm 939 (China version of firmware) without 4g but with the same 3g bands of rm937 (Global version) .
I want to know if the new version of WPI will allow me to flash rm937 firmware, unlocking the bootloader, in order to unlock the 4g feature.
Thanks.

Hi everyone,
Since the Androïd PIE 9.0 update, the nokia 3 loose mtkengineering app.
How to make the functionnality of mtk engineering mode app running again ? I need (and used) everyday "Band lock" and "network selecting" to lock my phone in 4G or to lock a band when others are overload.
Very thank you if somemone could help me install this app (maybe it needs to root the phone) or to revert to androïd 8.1

Hi, thank you ! It gives me access to androïd setting where I can lock 4g only, 3G only, very good! But only for sim 1, nothing can be done for SIM 2. And with engineering mode app i could select B7 only or B20 only or B28 only, on the 2 Sim slots... Other ideas?
