[Q] Cannot Flash Android 4.4.2 on GT-I9505 LTE

Hi everyone,
I flashed the leaked ROM I9505XXUFNA5 to my GT-I9505 LTE back in January when it came out, all went fine. However, now when I try to flash the official Android 4.4.2, say I9505XXUFNB8, via odin v3.09 the process will fail after 20 seconds and I have to flash the leaked ROM again in order to have a functioning phone. My phone is carrier free and it is not rooted.Can anyone help me please !
Thank you in advance,
MaximusDacicus

You just killed your EFS :/
You still got a chance:
you can stay with the leaked rom, but you will have to install the latest "modem" (included in rom failed to install) while you keep the romactually installed
thats the only way it can be lucky and may be EFS get back to work may be. I suppose you dont have any EFS backup, so if restoring it fails that way --> you will have to get it repaired. Will be at least 40$ i think...
There a many posts on xda about EFS, but once gone, it is gone. Feel free to read some hours about it

1. IMEI code is not messed up (it's the same as the one on on the package);
2. I still have carrier signal;
3. I can lock the sim card by pin code
Do you know other signs that would lead to the conclusion that the EFS file is broken ?

Mohahah "My phone is carrier free " <-- thought you can-'t get carrier signal anymore lol.
So you're fine i suppose
sry for making trouble. I just missunderstood your writing.
Means you just want to get "back to the root" ?

Carrier free it means that my phone it's not sim locked in any network. My phone is working fine. I just want to install an official ROM not to stay with the leaked one. I want to install the one for my country so that when I connect to samsung kies via PC the csc and pda of my phone to match up in order to receive updates or to simply for KIES to recognise my phone. The bottom line is that I find it strange that I can't flash 4.4.2 product code COA (Romania) I9505XXUFNB8.

what region is the leaked fw for?

It's from the Sammobile, It seems I can't post links.
Country more likely Germany

Thats due to its a branded rom you tried to install (COA = cosmote branded).
Here is the unbranded version you need (ROM = unbranded for your country):

MHA-L09BC69B110 does update from MHA-L09C69B110 Mexican Telcel?

I have a mexican telcel model MHA-L09C69B110, and throug huawei firmware finder, found OTA MHA-L09BC69B110, but due the fact that other two carriers AT&T and Movistar have Mexican versions, have a doubt to install it. How to be sure that it belongs to Telcel?

1. How to find Vendor Info
Go into dialer (only stock works)
Enter *#*#2846579#*#*
Go to 3. Network Information Query
Choose 4. Vendor Country Info
2. How to analyze ROM.
Go to FF site with your model
http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/?firmware_model=Mha-l09bc69&firmware_page=0
Choose filelist and notice what text written in vendorInfo.
In common case, there are three files:
update.zip
update_data_(full_)public.zip
update_(full_)[your vendorInfo].zip
Example: update_telcel_mx.zip
If 1 and 2 are same, so you can install this OTA

Question
I have a firmware that doesn't appear anywhere
IUSACELL, MX MH09-L09C212 EMUI 5.0 Really Alcatel Mexico
And software finder doesn't find it, is this something normal that firmware's are not register?
Thank you

Your only option is change to L29C636 firmware (free), L09C432 (paying) or keep the current firmware with AT&TMX.

Yes. It is normal.
FF does not know path to ROM with your localization. Probably, Huawei flashed stock firmware in factory and did not post it on HiCloud.
All firmware are in Huawei's HiCould. FF scans some parameters and checks if update exists on exact link.
You can help if you will receive notification of next update and find link to it (you need find from what link phone will download update)

Even when I did extract the files with HuaweiUpdateExtractor appeared the file VERSION.mbn, opened with notepad, can be read MHA-L09C69B110, , and made the folder dload in external SDcard and paste the UPDATE.APP file, message told no valid version for this phone, etc.
So I desisted to update until be sure about. I had a doubt: does UPDATE.APP the only file to paste inside dload folder? Other files seem to have information so neccesary for update. But I understood that the only file to be paste does UPDATE.APP, so we need some help at this point

Most of ROMs are with tag online_update.
So, you can't install them via dload-method, sdcard-method and other offline methods. Only online, only via system update.

Using system update to MHA-L09BC69B110 give me a file bigger than 8 gb and fail

Your only option is to upgrade the current model to C432 or C636. Telcel,ATT & Movistar in Mexico will take a lot of time to bring an update to the Mate 9. You can flash the C636 for free and with this your device will have more updates by OTA or FullPackage. For the C432 you will need to pay an online method to do this but this will change your Mate 9 to Europe version.
I own currently an MHA-L09 from ATT-MX with C432 on it.

MHA-L29C605B111 to MHA-L29BC605B111

Hello forum, sorry if the question i am going to ask is a bit noob. I have a mate 9 (MHA-L29C605B111 CUSTC605D111). The thing is i am getting annoyed by the notifications in numners not the icon. The thing is via FF i only find the MHA-L29BC605B111 CUSTC605D162. That cust is the same as a friend of mine which has the icons. My questions are:
1) Is there a command to enable the icons?
2) Is there any risk via FF to change from C605 to BC605 as is only OTA-MF?
3) Is this the correct way to change the CUSTID?
Thank you for every help you may give me as i am new in the huawei world!!:good::good:

1. No. Huawei uses numbers in old ROMs. But in new ROMs you can select numbers or icons.
2. You can not change ROM via OTA-MF in this case. This type of ROM contains difference between previous version and current only. If you will flash it over other ROM (non-native) - ROM will not be flashed. I don't know what difference between cust D111 and D165.
Symbol 'B' in MHA-L29BC605 means beta or test.
Maybe, you can flash but ROM version is same B111, so very little chances to flash by OTA type.
If you're not planning to sell phone or not using special functional from your mobile operator, it is better to rebrand on world or china ROM. The most popular are C636 (Asia Pacific), C432 (Europe), C00 (China). But you will lost ability to return on your customization, cause there is no full version of your current ROM.

Many thanks. I am a little afraid of rebranding at the moment. I do not understand de process correctly and I do not want to mess up my phone. I do not understand what is important about my operator, as this phone is not from an operator or the man who sell it to me said that, as i live in argentina this phone is not available here and i do not know from which country is from. Is there a posibility that i get otas or i will be stuck in this?

Where is your phone from? How you bought it?
Unfortunately, phones with extra customization are not updated often. I reviewed many stock ROMs, and ROMs with cust are hosted without FullOTA type even! So it is very hard to restore original state back.
Imho, if anyone wants buy Mate 9 and don't want problems with ROM or flashing process, he/she must buy phone with popular region.
I don't wander what Huawei included in addition to region when named cust. Maybe, it is special settings for domestic mobile operators, maybe some bloatware, maybe something else.
About existing OTAs.
Need to download them all and check what is inside. Changelogs are different, so it is chance that files are incremental. But I will travel for 2 weeks and without ability to get internet. Sorry.

I bought my phone to a guy who import them here in argentina. But i do not have any carrier branding in the ROM and i put my chip and it is not branded. Does my carrier affect in the time of the updates or no? As is not branded. I just reading reddit that the chip you put in the phone affects otas as mine c605 is destinated to colombia and mine is from argentina. Is really true that? In addition that since i bought the phone (1st May 2017) never received an OTA and still on october 2016 security patch.

Well man. Thnxs for all your info. I got the guts to rebrand this thing. Everything went OK in the first try. The only weird thing that make me crap my pants was that after the rebranding process (When i has finished intalling in the EMUI recovery) the phone start rebooting as crazy :crying: :crying: . It posted huawei logo, then black screen and start rebooting not allowing to enter either fastboot or ADB, after some time doing that the phone booted OK :victory: . Then flashed again the same model option and it was all a huge success :highfive:. Was the rebooting normal o not? Because in the guide that was translated to spanish that was a bit more accurate did not mention anything neither here. Any way, my phone is OK now i have the icons that was the thing that bothered me a lot and i am happy with that, THANKS TO EVERYONE :highfive::highfive:

Help and guide to update to oreo

Greeting, folks. Yesterday a got a brand new Mate 9 with a carrier in Colombia (South America). SInce I did some research I found that my current version (MHA-L09C25B16) is a custom ROM (I don't really know if the version is for the country or the carrier). I was wondering some things.
1. I searched on the web and used FF but could not find a ROM compatible with my current version
2. I'd like to know if there is some chance of updating without having to unlock the bootloader and install a ROM by flashing the device.
3. I need some guide on how to change my software to an European version so I can have the latest updates always.
Thanks in advance.

Hmmm.
1. I found only MHA-L09C25B106 OTA in FF. It is old version.
2. No chance. In case of rebranding you have to unlock bootloader, cause need change oeminfo.
3. There is guide but there is one problem also.
You have MHA-L09 that is one-sim model.
Oeminfo mha-l09c432 is not original, it was created from dual-sim model. Even if you're rebranded to this you will get gui elements of second sim.
Guide to rebrand: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
Additional problem is that you can't back to C25 region. MHA-L09C25B106 is OTA rom, not Full-ota. It can't be installed over other regions.
P.s. it would be better to sell this model and get dual-sim L29 model. Even if you're not using second sim, you are able to use sdcard in second slot.

Well...I went a little deeper in my "search" and found something (I think).
Officially there's no C25 Software model... It´s a Custom ROM for the carrier Claro (CUST C25D005). A custom, I SUPPOSE, was created from C605 Official Software (which happens to be, Official Colombia Model...Other Mate 9 sold unlocked in Colombia are MHA-L09C605).
So...my guess is... Even if the version is the C25 custom...could I install a C605 ROM?
And...in case I could do it...how would I do it?
Thanks a lot 5[Strogino]

I never faced with this customization and never read that anyone did it.
There are some ROMs for L09C605, so you can go to this region, but imho you need L09C605 oeminfo.
Huawei uses localization model of ROMs. When flashing phone looks like generic model (M300). Then script finds metadata in oeminfo to generate product and vendor partitions. If metadata is not match, you will get wrong info in "About phone".
Maybe I can be wrong and in your case there is simple process of inherited region. But who knows? As I said, there is no way to return to stock state.

Well then. Whenever the OREO update is released for the C605 region I would definitely do it. Would you please indicate me how to change the OEM info file? And how do I update when I have the .zip file? Do not know much about these processes.

I was wondering too... Why some updates contain three zip files?

To change oeminfo, you can place L09C605 oeminfo into directory for oeminfos
Or you can change bin file in TWRP backup and restore it.

Is it the mismatch between CSC codes?
Firmware and active CSC codes are different.

Well, you have a phone from Malaysia; while the ROM is French.
You can change both.
To change ROM CSC that's simple. Grab the relevant CSC rom from Sammobile or any other firmware site and install via ODIN. (Most phones have a relevant section/guide in their XDA sub-forum.)
To change device CSC, you need tools and it may not be supported at all. I used "SamKey", you need to buy keys from the company, but it worked. On my Note 10+ it worked, on my Note 9 it worked, on my S10e it worked. On my Note 9 512GB it failed. Basically the tool has to support your specific device variant AND if you are on latest firmware you must wait because they need time to make the tool compatible.

With one CSC firmware i should flash?any suggestion??

Well, I suppose you want to match the device's CSC, so I'd grab the XME one from Sammobile. And you need ODIN to flash. The whole ordeal should not affect your e-fuse/warranty/KNOX status. At least I never managed to trip mine by doing these.
But, I also used mismatch CSC firmware for months if not years at times and it didn't do a thing. Like I didn't notice any difference. I wanted to enable call recording, but I realized it only works if I change device CSC and then also flash the relevant ROM.

but if you want to relock bootloader make sure the CSC is same as the origin. Or you might brick your phone.

SamKey is a paid, third-party software.
- You have to buy credits for it to work. So you need to pay.
- It may or may NOT support your device (they do refund if it's not supported).
- You don't need to be a Hollywood hacker to use it, but if you are really unfamiliar with everything in general - I would recommend not using it.
