This is the official FunkyHuawei support thread.
FunkyHuawei is a (mostly) paid service which allows you to do the following:
1. Install the latest system software, even before it's released by OTA.
2. Install beta/prerelease system software, without needing to be a beta tester.
3. Recover a bricked phone.
4. Rebranding / Change the region of your phone (China -> Europe, for example, to get Google and so on.)
5. Enabling dual-sim features on single-sim phones.
6. Root your EMUI 8 phone, even with stock recovery (This feature is free)
--NOTE: SOME OF THESE FEATURES NOT AVAILABLE ON P20 SERIES YET. SEE NEXT POST--
You do not need to unlock your bootloader, or void your warranty to use the service. (except the free rooting feature)
To find FunkyHuawei, please Google it. Or you can find a link to the service as well as our rebranding tool within the following XDA Portal article.
https://www.xda-developers.com/exclusive-att-huawei-mate-10-pro-firmware/
We are pleased to announce FHUnbrickFlashTool -- You can now repair any recent Huawei phone via fastboot, even if you cannot access eRecovery or boot the phone! Even if it doesn't show the Huawei logo, as long as you can get a fastboot connection to your computer, you can recover the phone! Google FHUnbrickFlashTool or check FunkyHuawei's reddit for details.
In cooperation with XDA, FunkyHuawei is offering a free credit to Recognized Developers and Recognized Contributers on XDA.
Please PM me for more details.
We will continue posting in this thread with updates regarding new software versions and releases regarding this device.
We will also be monitoring it so we can help anyone who has issues.
FunkyHuawei, due to popular request, is now offering an unlimited pass. You can break your phone all you want, and turn to FunkyHuawei to unbrick it however many times you need to. You can also install all the latest updates, beta versions, and so on, without worrying about spending credits. You can check out more details on FH's reddit or homepage.
For device-specific information, please see the next post.
Please be sure to read the terms of service as well as the instructions very thoroughly before using the tools, to understand the potential risks of using them.
FunkyHuawei can now offer bootloader unlock codes for all Huawei models (including recent models like P20, P20 Pro, Honor Play, and so on.)
These unlock codes can be provided for free to customers who purchase an unlimited pass from today.
See details from the link on the main page of the site.
P20 and P20 Pro Device Information.
Currently, here is what we support on the P20/P20 Pro series.
Installing new firmware/unbricking via eRecovery: SUPPORTED
Rebranding with unlocked bootloader: AVAILABLE NOW!
Rebranding with locked bootloader: COMING, MIGHT BE A WHILE
Unbricking from fastboot: COMING, MIGHT BE A WHILE
Since it is a new device on a new OS, some things have changed and we need to update some of our methods to fully support it.
Those who would like to test rebranding with an unlocked bootloader before we release it, please contact us.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does FunkyHuawei cost?
A: You need to buy credits on the FunkyHuawei website. The price per credit varies depending on the number of credits you buy. Different operations cost different amounts of credits. However, the Root feature of the Mate 10 tool is free, and as mentioned above, Recognized Developers/Contributors of XDA can ask for a free credit.
Q: My phone is bootloader locked, and FRP locked. My bootloader unlock code dosen't work. It won't boot. eRecovery doesn't work. Can you help?
A: Yes. With the Mate 10 this is now a common situation. Contact FunkyHuawei for help in this situation. We'll need to access your computer remotely and the procedure is a little bit complicated, but the phone can be unbricked.
Q: I can't get my bootloader unlock code/don't want to unlock my bootloader, but I want to change my phone to something other than Chinese. Can you help?
A: Yes. Our new FunkyHuawei Rebrand Tool works on recent Huawei phones (Sorry EMUI 8.1 phones not yet supported. Coming soon), to rebrand them to another region even when the bootloader is locked.
Q: I'm not seeing the latest version listed on FunkyHuawei or elsewhere as an OTA. Why not?
A: Huawei has a very odd and unpredictable way of rolling out OTA updates. You can use FunkyHuawei to install the new version immediately, or can wait for the update to be rolled out. It might be a month or more after release until the update reaches your device from Huawei directly. We have no idea why.
Q: Why isn't FunkyHuawei free?
A: Because many of FunkyHuawei's features cost FunkyHuawei money to provide. Features that don't cost FunkyHuawei money to provide, like rooting the Mate 10 or our TWRP build for Mate 9/Oreo, for example, are generally made available for free. There are also bills to pay, kids to put through school, and so on.
Q: I noticed FunkyHuawei in an XDA Portal article!
A: FunkyHuawei loves XDA, and is cooperating with them as much as possible. Recognized Developers and Contributors on the XDA forums are welcome to claim a free credit from FunkyHuawei as well.
Q: I have a different question.
A: This is what this thread is for! Post away!
We now have the following firmwares available to install with eRecovery method:
CLT-L29 8.1.0.107(C432) - European

Yes, it's possible, but you'll need to unlock the bootloader.

@duraaraa Can Funky Huawei contact Huawei to request the release of complete and up to date kernel sources, so that we may have custom rom and kernel development for the new P20 & P20 Pro Series ?

No... we don't have any contacts at Huawei to ask. AFAIK project treble will let custom rom development go on quite easily even without kernel sources.

Yes. But it's possible the phone has an internal secondary IMEI which it simply doesn't show on the settings. We haven't had a way of figuring out exactly how it works IMEI-wise, but both sims do work. It's been this way for generations of Huawei phones.

I, too, would like to know.
I tried to use this guide as I read that the 6T process would work for the 7T. Turns out it does not! (by the way, I work in IT but I'm new to anything like this with phones). Does anyone know how to recover a bricked 7T?
Join this Discord and look in #useful-links for "Unbrick Tools." I would directly link it, but I don't think the moderator would like that.

Has anyone had any luck flashing Tmobile's OP8 with the firmware from the global model? When I had my OP7Pro, I recall flashing the global firmware to improve the overall experience, as TMO is TERRIBLE when it comes to updates. Is this even feasible with 5G?
And before you ask why I didn't just buy the global model... I am on EIP on Tmobile.

If I am correct; People are waiting for one plus to fix the IMEI not accepted issue on the one plus unlock bootloader site; after which people will start unlocking and reflashing the global version. I am waiting at least.
That's correct, without an unlocked bootloader were stuck atm lol

It's not locked. Okay? Every one plus has been able to be bootloader unlocked? How is it locked down? You're incorrect and wrong. Y'all "should have bought from one plus" love budding in not knowing anything. We knew what we was getting into. We have our phones unlocked and now we can flash global version and it took two weeks. Okay?
Do you have the Karen version or something Vio?!

So flash the global then flash back the TMobile modem? Just want to be sure about that. Could you write the steps out or point me to a post with the steps? I'm familiar with the one plus one had that be phone for years. But I'm new to the whole a/b partition phones. I have unlocked my TMobile oneplus 8. I've been kind of waiting to flash anything because I haven't been able to find much on flashing the TMobile version

unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, make a full back up, also you should back up persist just in case your fingerprint stops working, then flash the global firmware fastboot ROM, then flash TWRP restore the MODEM ONLY from the full backup and root etc

I don't know if this is a true answer for your question but I recently bought a İqoo 8 Pro and I was tampering the Developer options and saw that in there "OEM unlocking" with explaining "Allow the bootloader to be unlocked" but I don't know how to do so and maybe it's diffrent in the İqoo 7

I know you people are modding enthusiasts but sorry to let you down. Iqoo feels like it's similar to apple. It doesn't allow bootloader unlocking. You may see bootloader unlocking option in developer menu but it's just redundant. Iqoo and most Vivo phones doesn't support bootloader unlocking. So please don't waste your time searching for this. Telling this an experienced user of Vivo.

So, that is it ! No point in keeping hopes now. Atleast we should be happy with iqoo7's performance and camera. Hopefully funtouch os will give us more tweaking options in the coming updates...
What you think about this web? They show a method to root the device. Anyone try this one? I can't make my phone works on b28 and looking for some Toher options, and maybe rooting phone can helps.

Hi all,
I have searched on many threads on XDA and even other sources, but I can't find a solid answer, I don't like to create new threads, but in this case, I had to.
I am going to buy the Chinese variant of the OnePlus 8T, which is advertised to be shipped with Hydrogen OS. I have seen many guides and videos on how to switch to Oxygen OS and it seems very easy and straightforward.
My only concern is, that I will have to root the device (using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...in-eu-us-kb2000-kb2001-kb2003-kb2005.4178675/ ) and I am unsure how to return the device to stock.
From what I have read, the KB2000 Chinese variant does give a crashdump error if you use the normal MSM Download tool made for the global devices to flash the Chinese variant, because it shipped with Hydrogen OS, and not Oxygen OS.
Now I read on this thread that this is the working version of the MSM Tool for the Chinese KB2000 Hydrogen OS devices.
A few people confirmed that this is indeed working, but I am importing this phone to South Africa, and just want some extra peace of mind before I make the purchase.
My apologies if someone feels I created this post unnecessarily, but I am willing to write a guide for the Chinese version on how to return it to stock to help somebody else out there.
I will truly appreciate it if somebody can shed some light on this thread.
Thanks a lot everyone!

To return to stock you can use latest HydrogenOS MSM or OxygenOS MSM tools or even flash unpacked firmware files directly from fastbootd.

I think returning to stock HOS or OOS is not such a problem.
Look more precisely on other things like carrier support of chinese version (KB2000) in your country, especially if you're going to use 5G, because chinese version has different LTE/5G bands, so it may not reach max internet speed your carrier provides.
