Stuck on 11.0.0.196 and can't downgrade - Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello,
I was hoping someone could help.
I have a P40 Pro (ELX-nX9) which was running GMS fine from May 2020 until last week when it got sent off for a new screen, complete rest.
I have since spent almost a week following all the guides to try and download the firmware so I can use Googlefier to get GMS.
nothing works, always "update failed". Tried using the HiSuite Proxy to roll back to even an earlier version of 11.0.0.x but same issue.
Anyone offer any help?
Cheers

I made a rollback on my friend's ELS-N29 (C432R6) hw-eu from .196 to .131 today.
Went smooth, just use up-to-date HiProxy and HiSuite with version ending on 550, not 510 as I seen in multiple guides in the internet.

Write the full version of HiSuite to avoid confusion, please.
You want to say 10.1.0.550. Because the current version is 11.0.0.550.
@pape100
Today it was a problem with https://www.firmfinder.ml/
Pay attention to your phone region (Cxxx). Don`t use other region files.
Have you tried this?

Can't update firmware after installing GSM

To install GSM I downgraded my P40 lite from Emui 10.0.1.236 all way down to Emui 10.0.1.108 using Firmware Finder, Hisuite proxy and Hisuite Itself.
Now after installing google, I want to update the phone to 10.0.1.236 again, but it says that the older version is the newest in the updates menu. I tried to reinstall Hisuite, tried to update with the Hisuite proxy and Firmware Finder and with builtin updater in the phone. But still... I can't update my system.
If someone knows some way to reactivate the updates on the phone please reply to this thread
Hi.
Was in the same situation. Tried multiple old firmwares with hisuite proxy, and they downloaded and worked just fine, but couldn't upgrade from them.
Finally found a suggestion on a German forum that worked.
Using the OTG software install method, download a firmware from easy-firmware(dot)com and install that. Be very careful what software you donwnload as you could brick your device.
This worked for me, installed version 144 for my P40 Pro Plus, got immediately a software update notification to 156. Delayed that, done the GMS install, restarted, updated to 156, and then, because I was in thebeta, updated to EMUI 11. All good.
Please be aware that the site is requiring money for the downloads, and that I am in no way affliated with them. It's your own decision what to do

Did you ever figure it out? My p40 lite is doing the same thing on 10.0.1.108 as well
OTG install a complete firmware. There is no other way.
Working perfectly ever since I wrote the previous post, upgraded from the Emui11 beta to the final without issues.

Will this remove the Googlefier install ?
Yeah, you have to completely reset and erase the phone, flash the oldest firmware you can find through OTG, then after booting stop the automatic updates from settings.
Then apply Googlefier and after everything is working fine, only then update.
I had a hard time finding the firmware files for OTG, maybe you're luckier.
So basically, I have 10.0.1.108 installed currently with Googlefier installed.. I'm not able to update the emui via hisuite/proxy, fails the install. So then I need to do OTG install of a fullota emui and then reinstall Googlefier? I guess anything newer than .108 should be ok?
Yes, but be careful, try picking an older software, or you won't be able to use Googlefier. It fails with the latest updates, so your best bet is install it on an older one and then update.
A reinstall of your version 108 or something a bit newer should work.

P40 Pro (ELS-NX9 / C432) Compatible Firmware

Hi there, I have recently managed to get Google services installed on my ELS-NX9 (C432) and during my eagerness of updating to the most updated and compatible firmware (according to Firmware Finder) I updated the phone to the 10.1.0.182 (C432E8R4P1) version. I have to say the phone still works fine and have no issues whatsoever (apart from a few freezes when if using Google chrome which all I need to do is to go back to the home page and return to the app to unfreeze it. Annoying when it happens but not the end of the world).
With that being said, I have run safetynet and it shows a fail under cts profile match which leads me to think the firmware I've used is not 100% intended for my device (please correct me if I'm wrong).
Do you know which firmware is the most updated and 100% compatible firmware I should use for my device?
Thank you in advance.
hi
i used in hiproxy: http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G5633/g1604/v409481/f1/ (ELS-LGRP4-OVS 10.1.0.131)
used ictfix solution 1 to install GMS
after a i downgraded and waited a few minutes i got an OTA update to 10.1.0.176 and after that i got a OTA for 11.0.0.151 (C432E3R4P3)
so far everything seems ok. hope this helps u
Update 26.01.2021: i have received a new update 11.0.0.168 december update

Downgrade from 11 to 10 for install GMS (HELP)

Hello guys. I have a mate 30 pro 4g EU version. LIO-L29
EMUI version - 11.0.0.188
I wanna downgrade to 10. Because i wanna install GMS. I have succes downgrade last 2 week on p40 pro.
Now i try first to downgrade first from Hisuite. I have install Hisuite_10.1.0.550, but i dont have the button switch to other version.
if i try to HiSuite Proxy, i recive error:
[15:48:06]: Connection To HISuite Proxy Failed....
[15:48:07]: Check If Your Firewall Is Blocking HISuite's Proxy Server
i have add the app to the firewall, i have stopped the firewall...same
Please help me to figure out.
Hey man. I'm in the same boat. Unfortunately, I don't think we are able to downgrade to a lower version. So, we are stuck without Google. The only negative of not having GMS is the delay or no notifications coming in at all. Hopefully apps will be updated to work well with HUAWEI notification eco system.
Hey bro. I have succed to make it
ช่วยบอกวิธีทำหน่อย thank you
Hey, can you share with us how you downgraded from 11.0.0.188. Thank you.
With hisuite proxy
Thanks. Which firmware version you downgraded to?
Well, after multiple attempts using different firmware versions, the update fails after it has reached the 100% download. Have no clue what else to do. Firewalls are off, antivirus off. Anybody?

I followed this guide: Make sure those selections matches your phones need (region, etc..). If they don't match,..you know what might happen.
Complete Guide
Modifying HiSuite and manipulating it's connection data to install Roms before they officially get released. - ProfessorJTJ/HISuite-Proxy
github.com
BUT like I mentioned at a different thread. If downgrading to 10, Googlefier Wouldn't work. Also, I had lost USB connection and fast/super charge. But I think downgrading to a lower 11 should be ok. But I don't know. If you loose that, just upgrade again.
@robjbw thanks for answering. It will help everyone.

Unable to update for 8 months after installing Google

Hi,
I was able to finally get google on my phone about a year ago. I was able to update my phone once, manually, by downloading the firmware manually from the FF-app/website and connecting it to HiSuite.
For 8 months now, I havent been able to do this process anymore because FF-app/website shows me no working firmware. I think my phone is in risk because some of my passwords have been hacked and im almost sure its not my laptop. I am ready, if i have to, to do a factory reset. I was told when adding google services, that even after a reset, the google services will remain on my phone.. But then the issue is still not solved as my phone doesnt want to update by itself. It always says the firmware is the latest one which is impossible after 8 months or longer not updating it.
When using FF app, every single firmware i click, it tells me: Error, most likely the firmware was removed from the server.
When i try to download a firmware from the desktop it says: An error occured.
I feel like im stuck.. What should i do?
My huawei P40 PRO+
Model: ELS LGRP6 or ELS N39 (im not sure which one it is. the 2nd one is written on my phone but the first one is written on a paper from 1 year ago)
Build number: 10.1.0.175(C432E2R3P3)
Emui version: 10.1.0
Thank you a lot for anyone reading this and being able to help me!
You must use this site for firmware search. https://www.firmfinder.ml/
You receive updates, or not?
The issue is solved thanks to one of a senior member. Thank you so so much!
You are welcome!
The solution was that:
- downgrade using dload firmware
- install Google with googlefier
- OTA update to the last EMUI version ( he requested that)

P40 pro downgrade - different device

Hi, just got my P40 pro and decided to install GMS. I've read a couple of guides and started...
Downgraded to EMUI 10 and lost USB connection. My device name changed from ELS-N29 to ELS-NX9. Did OTA updates up to EMUI 12 but still got NX9 as device name. Tried downgrading again via Hisuite and got error message Update Failed.
Shame that none of the widely available guides addressed any of the problems I have encountered, had to specifically look for them to see all the warnings related. I've noticed there are other ways to install GMS but downgrading still seems like the easiest option. Why ELS-NX9 though, and why Hisuite won't proceed?
First time downgraded directly to 10.1.0.154. Used correct files (C432, ELS-N29, R5). Now I am trying to follow THIS guide, but got error message from Hisuite.
What am I doing wrong? How to become ELS-N29 again (if it changes anything) and how can I install GMS and go back to EMUI12 the most hassle-free way? Got quite a bit of experience with flashing, using recoveries etc, so I thought it's gonna be sweet-as-pie job....

You used old tutorials. I think you can find many things on my thread here.
I'll try downgrading to EMUI 11 using Hisuite without Proxy then. I've seen your thread about fixing USB connection etc, but other people said over there that their device became N29 again after some OTA updates. Mine didn't.
I also wonder why my device originally was N29, but ny box says it's an NX9...
If I manage to downgrade to 11 through vanilla Hisuite, will I be able to follow the video I've linked above? It seems pretty straightforward, and If I only seen it before OTA upgrading...
Does my device being NX9 actually make any problems? Or it was just wrong Hisuite/random error then?
Edit: okay, I rhink I see now. So right now I should downgrade to the lowest thing Hisuite will let me, then Hisuite proxy to lowest 11 version, then I should be able to continue as per video. Correct?
EDIT: Okay, not correct, I won't be able to downgrade from 11.0.0.260 any further without OTG according to your guides. Don't have one at the moment.
I've also found this thread. Could I simply stay on EMUI12/HarmonyOS (whichever I have if there's any difference) and install GMS this way? If yes, I'd like t repeat previous question - does my device being ELS-NX9 now instead of originally ELS-N29 affect anything at all? Regards and cheers
Yet another edit: how is it possible that I downgraded from EMUI12 to 10.1.0.154 directly in the first place? Used newest Hisuite with Proxy. According to all guides, including yours, this should not be possible?
