G6-L33
"the same as L22 and L11"
Sorry, Its the same is true, but this is for Europe and files are diferent from Colombia, thats way the issue..
It does not work in L22 and L33 , although it is the same phone with the same kernel, but the provider configuration is totally different, frequencies , network codes, etc.
I did not know because no one yet with these models had reported , I found this incompatibility shortly ...
If someone able to change or create , it may be possible to upgrade .
L11 - Europe
L22 - Venezuela
L33 - Colombia
Sorry :\
works great . thanks a lot man
i updated to B370 successfuly, everything working fine except Motion Control. when i go to "Motion Control" in Settings, there is nothing there (a blank white screen).
I remember this problem was in P6 EMUI 3 too and a patch was there to fix it. any patches for G6?
Same thing goes rong. Sensors must work! Or pictures rotate?
If not, flash b118 again, than b370. Don't forget factory reset after change cust folders names.
:good:
Excellent guide, you did a summary of four different things in one and easy to understand. For your mastery of the subject I wanted to ask your help to use my Huawei G6-U00 with firmware of China, which has unlocked WCDMA 1900 MHz band, so I can not use the phone in 3G in Venezuela.
Is there a way to unlock it?
I have tried to Engineer Mode, but it asks a code that is not known Huawei (0, 0000, 1234), . Also I tried the QPST program, but despite being recognized as a modem, do not read as a telephone and does not communicate with the RF_NV_Item_Manager.
Thanks in advance!!
Mario
Hmmm, unlock bootloader, root it and do backup from your ROM. than try b136 u251 rom, from colombia. You can use g6sknife to do backup (need root).
oemsbl version list check error!

I have Bootloader unlocked, Rooted, and CWM as Recovery.
I installed G6-U251 B136 dload in SDcard, Note ( in my U00), and gave me the following errors; oemsbl version list check error!, ?V write data error, Error; Update.app is an invalid package, Sd card update failure, SD card update abort.
I used the default recovery cause the CWM asks a zip file. and I unzipped the file and place it in the folder Dload in SDcard.
Any advice?

After you do backup with g6sknife, there is a tool you can use, is the rom extractor, is in g6skinfe to.
Extract system, cust modems.
Copy system to cmd folder, boot in fastboot (bootloader), use cmd option, than flash system if fail you need to restore your backup, because you stay with out system, if you get success, put cust and modems in backup zip and use cwm to flash it. If you get success to, you need to change cust to your provider.

G6_L11 problem after update...
Hello...
I have a G6-L11, Digitel Venezuela ...
Since I did ROM upgrade, the gyroscope and proximity sensors do not work, either lighting and ...
What can I do..??
problem with g6 rom
hi
i hope someone can help me with a little problem on my Huawei G6 smartphone.
the model is a G6-U10
but currently i have a U00 rom installed (B370, downloaded from the official Huawei site, probably the Chinese one)
installation of this rom went smooth, but this build has some serious shortcomings, so i wanted to install another rom. but that appears to be impossible!
I tried several U10, C00 and L11 roms, ranging from build B118, B193, B261,B330 and B370. most download from the official Huawei servers. and I also tried rollbacks, (U10 B360 to B136 and L11 B370 to B118), but nothing seems to work.
mostly i get the message "version list error" with some other things.
it's weird that i managed to install a U00 rom on a U10 device, but now it seems that i can't install anything from other models than U00 ánd roms that are older than the current one (B370), which is the problem, because this is the newest i think... so i can't find any other rom that i can install...
the phone is not rooted. i tried is with Vroot and Rood Genius, but it didn't work. why, i don't know. i don't even know what i precisely would do when the phone is rooted... but that's another story
I really want to install a proper working (preferably EU) rom on my G6, and at this point it doesnt matter to me how old the build is...
problem with the current rom U00 B370 is mostly this:
i can't add my Google account for the phones' contacts
play store can't install any apps
can anyone help me? cant i rollback to a better build or something?

Now you need CWM recovery and kinguser.zip to root, Download this files:
-CWM-U10.zip:https://mega.co.nz/#!XpYxGC6D!K0dE4-sr7LmauOrVTRwlE5Qx8eX-mKfqNkTXteUkrTU
-UPDATE-Kinguser-3.4.0:https://mega.co.nz/#!bhp2AZyL!6R1zHtVrWC08tkHAcxv5XtwfjZjx_VbjV3qH2ezELuo
1. Unlock bootloader: https://www.facebook.com/groups/huawei.g6.development/permalink/457458214413436/
2. Download adb if you dont have it, from the link above:
3. extrad ADB TOOLS from zip to desktop, open it and open ADB_TOOLS
4. In PC go to c:\Windows\System32 look for cmd, COPY and paste in ADB_TOOLS.
5. Press volume down and power button to go in fastboot mode, and plug the phone in to PC.
6. Open cmd (doble click in cmd)
7. Type this:
Fastboot flash recovery CWM.img
fastboot reboot
8. Copy "UPDATE-Kinguser-3.4.0.zip" to your SD CARD
9. Turn OFF the phone, press vol + and power, release power on boot to go to recovery mode CWM
10. clear cache
11. Press install zip from sd card
12. Click update UPDATE-Kinguser-3.4.0.zip
13. wait for confirmation and after that when it complete REBOOT your phone
14. After rebooting go to Google play and install any root checker to see if is OK.
Now fix Cust:
The Roms are created for a specific provider , with a specific configuration. A ROM can be compatible with various models , such as U10 with the U251 , L11 with P7mini or even between the same zone countries .
But in the end we find small problems , such as lack of Shortcut Bar in version 4.3 and lack of applications in version 4.4 ! It has to do with the configuration of the CUST folder. How to fix ? We need access ROOT and an explorer as the Root Browser , which can be found in Google Play.
With Root Browser, in this case, we will go to folder /DATA and seek the custom.bin file, open it as a text file, you will see something such as vodafone/pt, for example, now we left the folder /DATA and go to the folder /CUST , we open it and we will usually find a folder with the name hw, we will change the name of it to the first name that we saw in custom.bin in our example will is vodafone, use small font, now we entered the vodafone folder and we will find another folder that usually his name is normal, let's switch to the second name of our exemple which will be pt, use small font!
Now just leave the Root Browser , turn off your phone , enter the recovery , perform a factory reset and start the phone normally.All will be fixed.
Tell if works!
like write data
[Hi, I have the g6 u251 but when i try to install it, says something like write data error update.app is a invalid package, how do i fix it?
Before rooting you need to unlock bootloader of your device:
Unlocking process :
- For unlocking you need 3 identifications from your phone.
1. Serial No. You can find this in Settings > About phone > status. 2nd last line.
2. IMEI No. Again Settings > About phone > status. You need IMEI1 only. I repeat for dual sim phones, IMEI1 is only required.
3. Product ID. To get your phone's product ID, dial "*#*#1357946#*#*". The number you see on screen after dialing this code is Product ID. copy it.
- Now goto http://www.emui.com/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail
This page is in chinese. From first dropdown select 2nd options. Wait for sometime, while it loads phone model names into second dropdown. Once phone models are loaded. Select GEM-703L from second dropdown.
- Put in your Serial No, IMEI No, Product ID in next 3 text boxes.
- Key in Verification code you see in image next to last box.
- Click Submit button (Right side green button)
If you consistently get some error. Mail above SN, IMEI, Product ID to [email protected]. They will revert back with unlock code in few days.
- Next download "X2 bootloader unlock.zip".
link : https://www.dropbox.com/s/zrznidv7c0fi4do/X2 Bootloader unlock.zip?dl=1
- Connect phone to computer, shutdown. Press and hold volume down button and power button. Keep holding volume down button, untill phone enters boot loader mode.
- double-click unlock.bat. Select option 3.
- Disconnect phone from computer, Key in the unlock code on phone. If unlock is success, you will see a android robot and "Phone unlocked" written below it.
Now Rooting :
There are essentially 3 methods for rooting, Method 3 is better than 2 is better than 1.
Method 3 : Credit : http://cn.club.vmall.com/space-uid-5467988.html
1. There are seperate rar files for B009 and B012. Download based on your current Rom.
B009 root : https://www.dropbox.com/s/h7os2bx7hsmp7cl/X2_root_B009_Kangvip.rar?dl=1
B012 root : https://www.dropbox.com/s/3tjywj9q9zadj0a/X2_root_B012_Kangvip.rar?dl=0
2. Check Debug usb mode in mobile and connect to windows computer.
3. Run Run.cmd, while phone is connected to computer. Follow On screen instructions. If successful, it will re-boot the phone and write new boot.img.
4. You will not Kinguser app installed. You are rooted.
Method 2 : Again chinese folks over at vmall forum china.
1. Download and extract rar file.
link : https://www.dropbox.com/s/2k8levlxjy97tn8/X2 Root Method 2.rar?dl=1
2. Check Debug usb mode in mobile and connect to windows computer.
3. Run 1.Run.Cmd, Follow instructions. Phone will reboot itself. If fail, try again.
4. You will see Chinese SU app installed. It will ask for updating binary automatically. Follow your intuition(chinese language) to click buttons and update binary. Don't worry it will be easy.
5. Reboot
6. Run 2.Run.Cmd, Follow instructions. Phone will reboot itself. If fail, try again.
7. Done. Open camera app, No camera issues.
Method 1 : May cause "Camera app not opening issue"
1. Download zip file, and unzip.
link : https://www.dropbox.com/s/qnrqncjridi5ipt/X2 Root Method 1.zip?dl=1
2. Check Debug usb mode in mobile and connect to windows computer.
3. Run Run.cmd, while phone is connected to computer. Follow On screen instructions. If successful, it will re-boot the phone and write new boot.img.
4. You will not Kinguser app installed. You are rooted.
Fail
Yo yo... Already we must wait few time...
It succeeded for me. see screenshot.

WORKED! checked via root explorer..in system app...woo hoo!
yes..changed font too now...all working (B012 had bootloader unlocked already when on previous version-was still unlocked as that process supposedly is permanent)
great enjoy!!!
And me still not working! Any idea?
Are you able to open camera app after rooting ?
I yes, therefore still not have root...
If I had known the camera would stop would not have rooted..oh well new problem to fix...
Edit ..at least screenshot and gallery work...apparently it is the root method?...some boards mention that camera failing is due to some specific root method and to flash recovery and boot image to fix problem..something to that effect
Sent from my GEM-703L using XDA Free mobile app
Yes. Re-root with second method, if you can take the pain to re-image to B009 and update then update to B012.
Process :
1. Download B009 from here : http://emuirom123.dbankcloud.com/GEM-703L_EMUI 3.0_android5.0_V100R001C233B009.rar?rid=1276
2. copy dload to sdcard and goto EMUI updater> setting > local update. Select update and image.
3. After 009 installation, update OTA to B012.
4. Goto 1st page of this post and root with new method mentioned.
Hello folks,
Bought a Mediapad T3 7 from Walmart recently. Has anyone found root yet? I tried all of the Kingroot, etc. APK's so far. Don't waste your time. Tried them all.
If our magicians here can find root, I'd love it!
Thanks,
Rich
Got the same request. Tried KingRoot and iRoot, cause you never know
I'd imagine it's coming one day or another. Tablet isn't that old yet.
Just a matter of somebody compiling twrp for it, I'd imagine..
I would love to know if any progress has been made. I need TWRP and an AOSP ROM. I love the devices look and feel, and its bluetooth operability. but absolutely DESPISE the UI and how it operates.
+1. Decent little tab but no built-in ext4 format for external SD, hoping for root. Getting it to run on stock android would be neat, too.
I tried the online root solutions-none of them work. Just tried Kingroot today and no good.
Same here I got a new huawei t3 10" great tablet by the way but no way I can root it.. I've tried all the Internet suggested ways and nothing seem to work at all but I manage to get the Device ID typing a code in the dialer.

Hi there, about that yes I can make phone calls with it I bought the Model with the 4G option (there is 3 models from the same Huawei tablet one of them is WiFi only and the other two can make phone calls) also I managed to unlocked the bootloader by using the device ID I got earlier and Huawei website.
mine is AGS-L09 model
Thanks Mercer99, appreciate it (for your device security, can you remove the image as this has your IMEI)- we have the same model, but different firmware.
AGS-L09C199B002 is “Saudi Arabia Oman Kenya Cameroon Jordan Qatar Ghana Android 7.0 EMUI 5.1” region.
AGS-L09C127B031 is “Greece Hungary United Kingdom Nonspecific Android 7.0_EMUI” . The dialer/calling function is disabled on this firmware - confirmed on Vodafone and EE network.
Is there any way you can extract the OEMINFO from your device and share it with us. This should enable me to debrand the phone if I can find your firmware (downloaded EUROPEAN version with Firmware finder already – so really need an European OEMINFO).
My phone is still locked to Vodafone so I am not sure whether I can flash the firmware or even need root to flash a different OEMINFO (bootloader is unlocked already).
Sorry buddimanv I would love to help but I don't know how
OEMinfo
Last time I did was with P9 Lite - changing from EE to European firmware using a tool (I think SRK Tool or “VNS-L21/22/23/31 [EU] Toolkit [0.0.0.12] All-in-One”) but it was rooted - seems like root is needed before anything. I think the process would be to change the firmware on tablet as well.....
I was hoping as bootloader is unlocked, we can retrieve OEMINFO from fastboot or something and debrand….would be good if anyone can clarify.
Possible Root Solution
Anyone prepared to test rooting method below?
How to install Magisk with ADB
How to install Magisk with ADB
Does not require the availability of custom recovery and root-access
1. Delete all other types of root-access and restore the partition image of the boot partition
2. Download Magisk v13.6 or later and download / unzip from the firmware partition image of the boot partition
3. Unpack the Magisk archive, put the boot image of the boot partition in the same folder, and rename it to boot.img
4. Rename the folder with the name corresponding to the architecture of your device (arm, arm64, chromeos, x64, x86), in magisk_inject
5. In the terminal, change the current directory to the folder with Magisk and run the following commands one at a time:
PHP:
adb shell "rm -rf / data / local / tmp / *"
adb push META-INF / com / google / android / update-binary common magisk_inject boot.img / data / local / tmp
adb shell "cd / data / local / tmp / magisk_inject; mv ../common/*.; chmod 755 *; sh ../update-binary indep boot_patch.sh ../boot.img; mv ../bin/ busybox busybox "
adb pull /data/local/tmp/magisk_inject/new-boot.img
adb shell "cd / data / local / tmp; rm -rf * .img magisk_inject / *. img update-binary bin common"
6. To flash the resulting boot partition image with the name new-boot.img
PHP:
fastboot flash boot new-boot.img
7. Download the system and make sure that Magisk Manager is installed and that its version corresponds to the version of Magisk. If not, manually install the correct version of Magisk Manager.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
or follow original post
Via Magisk Manager (Only support v14.0+):
This method does not need root, and also does not require a custom recovery.
However, you MUST have a stock boot image dump beforehand, and also be able to flash the patched boot image, either through fastboot/download mode or ODIN
Install the latest Magisk Manager
If you're planning to flash the patched boot image through ODIN, go to Settings > Update Settings > Patched Boot Output Format, and select .img.tar. For normal users leave it as the default .img
Press Install > Install > Patch Boot Image File, and select your stock boot image file
Magisk Manager will now patch your boot image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/MagiskManager/patched_boot.img[.tar]
Flash the patched boot image to your device and reboot. Voilà!
Check whether Magisk Manager is installed and the version matches the latest one in the OP
If for some reason Magisk Manager isn't installed/upgraded automatically, please install it manually

Bootloader can be unlocked easily of course (code is given immediately) - here
I am tempted but trying to control myself as I don't have a copy of my existing firmware to revert back via dload method if something goes wrong. However, AGS-L09C199B003 firmware is available, so if it fails, I believe you can always go back to stock. I have a feeling this will work.
Took a risk and its rooted now - Magisk v14.0 installed fine and seems to be working (need to test further). Also, Vodafone unlocked the device now for me
Challenge now is to debrand so as to enable functions which has been disabled by Vodafone (namely calling).
Would appreciate if anyone can help - need OEMINFO from another region so as to change the firmware, especially European one or even other UK network who does not disable calling.
Could not contain myself…. In my quest to debrand so I can have a dialer/phone calling function, downloaded a firmware (either from FF Team or on the internet), tried flashing system.img file to see if it installs the dialer as it would not install extracted ones and it did not work. So tested with the boot.img and it did work but phone kept rebooting to eRecovery.
Restoring from TWRP (incomplete/untested) backup did not work. Can’t install any other regional firmware because of OEMINFO. eRecovery can’t find any firmware. The only thing – TWRP/Stock Recovery, eRecovery or bootloader!
Chatted with Huawei support and they won’t give me a link to download the firmware – want me to send for repair, which I don’t really want to – too much hassle and they may end up blaming me anyway….lol He agreed to upload one to their website if he can find one.
I would appreciate if anyone can give me an OEMINFO or link to EUROPEAN firmware with a dialer….. I think European one is AGS-L09C127B031CUSTC127D002 – would appreciate if anyone can share the file with me.

I got stuck on the calculator part too. I didn't see the parenthesis buttons. But I turn the tablet on its sit. the view turned horizontal and i was able to see more buttons available. Horrible design for the calculator app.
Hi guys, can someone finally root this Tablet? I would also like to install TWRP to install an AOSP ROM.
Thank you!
Hi.
Did anyone succeed unlock Mediapad T3 7 bootloader ?
I have model BG2-W09 wifi only (European version). I have problem get product id
which is necessary part for bootloader unlock on Huawei site. Stucked to the calculator thing,
when i'll enter ()()1357946()()= on the calculator - i will get ERROR.
Contacted with the Huawei customer service for the help and got not nice answer:
We are unable to send boot loader code via email and can only be obtained through our website.
If you would want to unlock your phone, you should meet the following conditions:
1.Please register your Huawei ID in our official website on your phone.
2.Log in and logout your Huawei ID continuously for 14 days.
3.Each Huawei ID should not apply for the unlock code more than fifth time within 6 months.
Early people informed that email support works fast, but seems now the Huawei tightened terms.
Now i can expect 2 weeks everyday login to meet the requirements.
Some comments about tablet, maybe following helps someone.
One strange thing i've noticed with the tablet, it's not so easy bring up fastboot / recovery menu.
Pressing volume down + power brings up Chinese language test menu (8 options), nowhere to go with that,
pressing volume up + power brings up dialog with 3 options, "Reboot system now" or "Wipe data / factory reset" or "Wipe cache partition". Pressing by same all 3 buttons, volume up + volume down + power brings
up message that update not succeeded, update file not found on sd card. Also if you press only volume down and connect micro usb cable, it brings you to the Chinese test menu again. Also weird why European version tablet has at all Chinese test menu ?
I have triple boot desktop computer and i've downloaded 3 latest adb and fastboot platform-tools packages, for windows (using 10), mac and linux. With windows, using cmd i can start adb session, query device,
seems like everything works, when i'll try:
"adb reboot bootloader", device just reboots back to the main. Tried the same with the Ubuntu, same thing, adb helps finds the device, but when trying: "adb reboot bootloader" device just reboots into normal, not going into fastboot/rescue mode.
The thing is different with the mac (OSX 10.12), when i'll type to the terminal:
"adb reboot bootloader" the device rebooting into the fastboot mode.... and the terminal not responding any further, example when quering: "fastboot devices",
but having already fastboot mode activated on tablet and when rebooting desktop into windows 10 or ubuntu, i'm able using fastboot, tablet responds to the: "fastboot devices" or "fastboot oem get-bootinfo", even "fastboot oem unlock" responds informing about not valid key...
So far i'm able to put tablet into fastboot mode only using mac. Hope that's useful info for someone struggling
with same problems.
Unfortunately bootloader is still locked, problem finding product id, Huawei also did not help.
Huawei product id generator did not recognise Mediapad T3 versions.
Any ideas how to find product id or maybe someone can share the unlock code ?
Thanks in advance.
[GUIDE/TUTORIAL]
HOW TO INSTALL
LINEAGEOS 16 BETA 6 NO GAPPS
ON HUAWEI DEVICES
17th December 2020
Authored by: RK aka Klorofill_YUM aka Purrrturbed
Tested on the following devices:
Mate 10 Lite (Kirin 659 SoC)
SPECIAL NOTE #1: To unlock the bootloader the device must be on a firmware earlier than Android 8, thus Android 7, or Android 6, Android 5 will be fine, if using the DC-Unlocker method.
Additionally, the device must be with a security patch earlier than 1 June 2018. Make sure device is supported by DC-Unlocker, check here (See link: https://www.dc-unlocker.com/supported_models_1/huawei_phones)
SPECIAL CREDIT TO USER "Chaosdave34" *see comments: Unlocking the bootloader is possible on Android 8 using the PotatoNV method.
SPECIAL NOTE #2: To install LineageOS the device must be on EMUI 8, therefore on Android 8 with an unlocked bootloader. Additionally, the device must be a supported device - please check OpenKirin’s devices list. All of this considered: in order to satisfy these 2 special requirements this may result in the need for both downgrading and upgrading firmware throughout the following steps. Also, keep in mind: TWRP and other custom recoveries are not supported! Please ensure that the device’s stock recovery installed. Please do not use TWRP or any custom recovery, the following install method will work perfectly fine with only the stock recovery installed. Make sure device is supported by OpenKirin, check here (See link: 4.https://openkirin.net/devices/)
SPECIAL NOTE #3: It is required that the device being used in is supported by both DC-Unlocker and OpenKirin, if the device does not satisfy both of those requirements, this tutorial is not for that devices. Many files that are mentioned throughout this tutorial are included in the 'Packed by RK' folder. The method is this tutorial is not officially supported by OpenKirin. The Author has no affiliation with OpenKirin or DC-Unlocker. Try at your own risk, the author does not take responsibility for bricked devices.
On the Android device: Turn on "Enable OEM unlock" & "USB Debugging" options, they are turned on from developer options.
On the PC: Install HiSuite onto a PC via plugging in the Huawei phone to a PC - This will install all of the required drivers
Backup any device data to be kept. Installing an OpenKirin ROM for the first time requires a factory reset!
On the PC: Install ADB & Fastboot using 15 seconds ADB Installer v1.4.3 (see link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979) Downloads: Version 1.4.3 (see link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4623157&d=1540039037)
On the PC: Install process for adb: Run program (Require administrator privileges), then Press Y/Yes to install ADB and Fastboot or N/No to skip, then Press Y/Yes to install ADB system-wide or N/No for current user only, then Press Y/Yes to install Drivers or N/No to skip, and finally Continue Driver installation and 15 seconds passed - finished!
Notes about adb installation: System-wide: ADB and Fastboot are installed to %SystemDrive%\adb directory, and added system-wide path. And, current user only: ADB and Fastboot are installed to %UserProfile%\adb directory, and added path for current user. CMD can use ADB and Fastboot from any directory. Drivers are installed to system - no need to install them from directories.
Now that adb is installed, to continue, the Huawei device must have its bootloader unlocked. Do not skip this step. Do not attempt to load LineageOS ROM unless the bootloader is unlocked. In the follow steps, instructions will be provided for unlocking the bootloader. Please follow the next steps carefully
SPECIAL WARNING: If the device runs Android 8 or later with latest security patch then this DC-unlock service won't work! (See “Special Note #1” mentioned earlier) - It is important downgrade and restore an earlier firmware if the device is on Android 8.
With both the Android device and PC: It is strongly recommended to use HiSuite now to downgrade the Huawei phone to its earliest firmware. Plug in the Huawei Phone, open HiSuite > Updates > Other Versions > Earlier Version > Click Restore
On the PC: Download and then install DC-Unlock from the homepage: (See link: https://www.dc-unlocker.com/), or install DC-Unlock from the Packed by RK folder (See filename: dc-unlocker2client_1.00.1431.zip)
On the Android device: Connect phone to PC via USB. Then, enable "manufacturer mode" on the phone. This is done by entering the following code into the dial pad: code *#*#2846579#*#* (SPECIAL NOTE #4: On tablets without dial pad use in-built calculator in landscape mode to dial ()()2846579()()= )
On the Android device: Now, Select "Project Menu" > "Background settings" > "USB ports settings" > "Manufacture mode".
On the PC: Launch DC-unlocker software
On the PC: Detect device by selecting Huawei phones from the manufacturers drop down menu list, "Select model" leave on Auto detect (recommended), then read the info on software for how to correctly prepare phone for detection. After phone is prepared, connected to PC and it's drivers installed, click magnifying glass button. Now, wait till program detects it
On the PC: The information the software will display now will look like something more or less similar to the example below:
DC - Unlocker 2 Client 1.00.1431
Detecting phone :
selection :
manufacturer - Huawei phones
model - Huawei HiSilicon Kirin Android phone (new)
Selected Applications port COM6
Model : Huawei HiSilicon Kirin Android phone (new)
Serial NR. : 2VN5T17A29000000
Firmware : System 5.1.0.98(08SN)
On the PC: Open Server tab, enter your username and password that you received after credits purchase. To purchase credits, this is can be done via paypal. (Buy credits here, see link: www.dc-unlocker.com/buy). Now, click "Check login" button.
SPECIAL NOTE #5: Unfortunately there is no way to do this that doesn't require paying a company - this is not a shameless plug for DC-Unlocker. The author of this tutorial does not work for nor is paid buy DC-Unlocker. The unfortunate reality is that at the moment, this paid service is the easiest and fastest method that works for unlocking the bootloader. This does not require opening the device and using the testpoint. That being said, in the opinion off the author, this DC-Unlocker service is well worth the price. For more information on getting credit, username, and password with DC-Unlocker check this source. (See link: https://www.dc-unlocker.com/how-to-get-username-password) If a username and password exists, and this method is familiar, then just add credits to the existing account and login to DC-Unlocker program clicking the "Check login" button.
On the PC: Open Unlocking tab, click “READ BOOTLOADER CODE” button. Then, wait for code to be provided. Now there is a bootloader code. This is needed for unlocking the bootloader. Save the bootloader code, this is the UNLOCK KEY.
On the Android device: Return the phone now to its original mode by exiting manufacturing mode, otherwise it might not function properly.
On the Android device: Please double check that USB debugging is enabled. Then, plug the phone into the PC.
On the Android device: A popup will appear on the phone screen asking whether to allow the PC to access the phone. Authorize the request.
On the PC: Open ADB by going to the directory where adb was installed and saved and open CMD/Terminal (Shift+Right-click > open Power Shell or Command Line).
On the PC: In the command line: type the following command, only use what is written between the " " : "adb devices"
Your devices should be listed in the adb window, if it isn't, either you didnt install the adb driver properly, or your usb port has problem
On the PC: In the command line: the following code will reboot the phone to fastboot mode, now type the following command: "adb reboot bootloader"
SPECIAL NOTE #6: There is another method to enter fastboot mode manually: Follow the next steps:
On the PC: Keep ADB command prompt open
On the Android device: disconnect it from the PC, unplug the USB, Shut down the phone, Press and hold Volume Down button and then connect the USB cable to your phone. Phone should now be in fastboot mode.
On the PC: Once the phone is booted up to the fastboot mode screen, using the adb command line, now type the following command: "fastboot oem unlock [your UNLOCK KEY here]" - Enter this command without the brackets, for example like: fastboot oem unlock 12345678901234
On the Android device: Confirmation dialog should appear on the phone screen, and give warning about unlocking the bootloader. Follow the instructions on screen, select Yes to unlock. The device will now unlock, please be aware all data on the phone will be wiped with a factory reset. Once the unlocking process is finished, the phone will boot up to the initial set up. At the start of every bootup, a warning screen mentioning unlocked bootloader will be displayed.
On the Android device: Get past the initial setup. Set everything up through the initial setup, this doesn’t have to be a complete thorough set up. It is recommended to skip all the account settings, security settings, and other settings because later steps in this tutorial will require yet another factory reset again.
On the Android device: Please update to Android 8 now. It is sufficient to update upto the first earliest Android 8 update, it is unnecessary to update to the latest update available. Now that the bootloader is unlocked, the device must be running EMUI 8.0 in order to install LineageOS 16 Beta 6 by OpenKirin - If the phone was downgraded in order to unlock the bootloader, the phone must now be upgraded via OTA in the phone's settings menu. Please update to Android 8 now - Other versions are not supported and will likely brick the device.
On the Android device: Get past the initial setup again. Once finished with the initial setup, go to phone settings and re-enable USB Debugging option in developer options
With both the Android device and PC: Plug the phone into the computer via USB, and from your adb command line, now type the following command: "adb reboot bootloader"
On the PC: Go to the OpenKirin Downloads page and download the ROM to install. OpenKirin downloads can be found here: (see link: https://openkirin.net/download/) or alternatively, find LineageOS 16 Build 6 included in the 'Packed by RK' folder.
On the PC: If the ROM downloaded is compressed (file ends with extension .xz), extract the ROM .img file from the compressed file. On Windows PC: either WinRAR or 7-Zip can be used to extract the file.
On the PC: Once .img file is uncompressed , place the .img file in the same folder as the installed adb fastboot (credit: OpenKirin)
On the Android device: Power off the device. Then enter fastboot mode. (See step 20 and special note #6 which mentions how to enter fastboot mode earlier in this tutorial)
SPECIAL NOTE #7: The fastboot mode screen must show “PHONE Unlocked” and “FRP Unlock” - Do not continue if that is not shown.
With both the Android device and PC: Once on the fastboot screen, keep the device connected to your PC
On the PC: Open a command line terminal in the same directory as adb fastboot and the copied the ROM .img file. Then, in the command window, enter the following command: “fastboot flash system <name-of-rom-image-file>.” Press enter, and see the ROM flashed.
On the PC: Once it’s completed, type the following command: “fastboot reboot”
On the Android device: Unplug the phone now - The phone may reboot quickly and launch right into the new software ROM, but it is absolutely needed to turn off the device. Turn off the the device.
Before booting up and using the ROM, it is needed to perform a factory reset in the stock recovery. Do not continue without performing a factory reset.
On the Android device: Now that the device is off, to boot into recovery, hold down Power + VolUp at the same time, and keep them held until the Huawei/Honor logo appears on your screen. If done correctly, the recovery menu will be on screen.
On the Android device: In the recovery menu, press the “Wipe data/factory reset” button.
Reboot the device and begin enjoying the ROM!

Do you have tutorial to run xposed or Edxposed?
Hello Readers!
I hope you all are well, I finally got my hands on a Mate 10 and P8 Lite 2017 for testing.
I have to say I have to regretfully inform that I have come accross an unexpected roadblock.
I can say as of now, the method described in this tutorial does not work for the Mate 10 or the P8 Lite 2017.
I got stuck at step 8:
With both the Android device and PC: It is strongly recommended to use HiSuite now to downgrade the Huawei phone to its earliest firmware. Plug in the Huawei Phone, open HiSuite > Updates > Other Versions > Earlier Version > Click RestoreWhen I connected both of these phone models to HiSuite I discovered it was impossible for me to roll back and downgrade the phones. The Mate 10 on the latest EMUI 10 would only roll back to Android 9.0. The P8 Lite 2017 would only roll back to and early Android 8.0 and it would fail to download Android 7, every time i tried to load, with a warning message stating the install fails due to lack space.
I can use your help: if you can verify my findings on your end by replicating the steps that i wrote in my tutorial, that can help me prove for certian these steps do not work for the Mate 10 and P8 Lite 2017. All of the steps worked perfectly fine for my Mate 10 Lite but, as it seems now, it is impossible for me to downgrade the Mate 10 and P8 Lite 2017 to Android 7 at this time, therefore the DC-Unlocker bootloader unlocking cannot be performed.

1. If the rollback option is not available with your HiSuite ("switch to the older version", "Earlier version"...), you must downgrade to the lower Oreo build version number doing the dload method (flashing Service ROM for your model and REGION (Cxxx)! This process will erase all your data! You can also try chinese HiSuite (with an .exe extension instead of _OVE).
2. You should be able to use DCUnlocker (hcu-client) on Oreo, but you may need to downgrade first ( to a firmware version before July 2018). Downgrading can be done with the dload method , using Service ROM downloaded on androidhost.ru .
I have an unlocked Bootloader but Android 8 with newest Security Patch, does the Rom also work or need I downgrade to Oreo with security patch from Juli

Hello, please do kindly share how you were able to unlock the bootloader whilst still on Android 8.
With this tool https://github.com/mashed-potatoes/PotatoNV.
I'm asking because I tried to install twrp recovery, but it hangs on startup and I don't want to brick my device.
I have now downgraded my RNE-L21 to Security Patch Juli 2018. The bootloader is unlocked and stock recovery is flashed. Is it now possible to install Custom Rom?

Alf is a good editor! He spotted my error.
Yes if you have bootloader unlocker, stock recovery , and android 8, your device fits all of thr requirements to install LineageOS.
See: "It is sufficient to update upto the first earliest Android 8 update, it is unnecessary to update to the latest update available. Now that the bootloader is unlocked, the device must be running EMUI 8.0 in order to install LineageOS 16 Beta 6 by OpenKirin"
And see: SPECIAL NOTE #2: To install LineageOS the device must be on EMUI 8, therefore on Android 8 with an unlocked bootloader.

Would assume it not possible because "Additionally, the device must be with a security patch earlier than 1 June 2018."

Congrats, this serves as a testimonial that loading LineageOS 16 works, and that this tutorial is a sufficient guide.
Today I've rebooted my phone and after entering my unlockcode the screen went black and I'm back at login. Here is the logcat (I did it 3x to reproduce the Error):

Did you get it to work. I have a Mate 10 lite with android 8 and emui 8.0 with August 1 security patch. Thinking of trying potatoNV and custom rom. But I won't risk briking my phone cz i have no replacement. Can you provide with the details you weny through? And i see that when u flashes twrp u got stuck. Then how did you manage to get the custom RoM running without twrp. And how did you get it to work after getting stuck.
