eRecovery - Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi guys, I was trying to update my P40 pro to the latest software (C432).
Right now I am at Emui 12, 290 and there is a new 296 software (december security patch).
Last security patch I have recieved at 30. 11. 2022. (290) over My Huawei app but nothing this month so far.
So I have tried the eRecovery update but get the error "getting package info failed".
Does anyone know how to solve that problem? I don't care about the update, my fear is that if I ever encounter a software problem I wont be able to use eRecovery because for some strange reason it doesn't work.
P. S. Tried on 3 wifi networks, result always the same.
Anyone got any ideas?

See no.1.

Hi Badmania, thanks for the reply. I have tried all of the methods from your thread but no luck so far. And I am ok with that.
But like I wrote the eRecovery option doesn't work at all - it gives an error "get package info failed". My concern is that if I ever encounter a software problem with my phone I wont be able to use eRecovery to fix it.
The pic in the post is yours from your thread, in my situation after this check I get the error above.

Sometimes I have the same error. Sometimes the error is not present. You can try also to change the country on the MyHuawei App. and search for update. You can try Germany, Hong Kong, etc.
Regarding just to the erecovery, dont worry.

I have exactly the same issue i live in Greece with 12.0.0.290 (C432) .erecovery reports "get package info failed". HiSuite tells me i am on latest MyHuawei the same .I hope we will get it at some point. I am amazed it takes more than 25days to push an update. i changed country language vpn DNS all the same

Is the firmware finder 2.12.17.3 still working?

I was wanting to downgrade my P40 pro using method 2. But when I was using firmare finder to get the url it always shows an error message as in attached photo.
Is it still working? Any update for downgrade method 2?
Thanks a lot
Same error for me, please send help, heheh cant downgrade my huawei matepad t8
Same issue here...
was looking on other threads and found everyone posting URLs like http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G5633/g1604/v409481/f1/ ... but all links to http://update.dbankcdn.com returning "An error occurred. " message. This is general nginx error, actual error is 404.
Does anyone know where can i get the ELS-LGRP4-OVS 10.1.0.131 firmware ? The lowest i can go in Hisuit is 10.1.0.176 and lzplay does not work on anything above 10.1.0.15x .
Please help guys... It's really frustrating to have such a beast of the device like P40 pro but not able to use it due to absence of a basic google services.
Thank you in advance.

Well it's official... I contacted the Team MT (firmware finder developers) and they acknowledged - Huawei moved all their firmware from http://update.dbankcdn.com to unknown location. Therefore there is no way to downgrade via Hisute proxy. I've tried to downgrade to 10.1.0.114 via OTG, but to no avail... I get error "incompatibility with current version" and update stops...
Did you have any success with downgrading ?
Same thing happens here too, "incompatibility with current version" sounds like wrong region or diff. hardware though. I could downgrade to 10.1.0.182 via HiSuite but nothing further down. There are some rebranding services or repairers they may have these resources but costs $$

Yes, I have dowgraded from 10.1.0.176(C432E8R6P1) to 10.1.0.131(C432E8R6P1) via OTG. I paid $17 to get the firmware though. But no notification for gmail and youtube. Can't sort it out so far

"incompatibility with current version" in my case was due to insufficient disk space on my OTG USB dongle...
8Gb is not enough as it's unpacking entire dload contents to disk. 4.7 GB update package needs another 5.5 GB of space to unzip.
Another issue that can cause it is incorrect device/firmware... Check your build number but not the 10.1.0.xxx - check what is in brackets. For example (C432E8R5P2) and see first 4 characters. In my case it is C432, which means that i have global version of P40 pro. Then go to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/googlefier-install-gms-on-huawei-honor.4180485/#post-83769465 and find firmware with same 4 characters. In my case i downloaded 10.1.0.121(C432E8R5P2) and it worked flawlessly.
After you've downgraded, use googlifier method as described in aforementioned thread to set up google services.

Stuck on 11.0.0.196 and can't downgrade

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.

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?

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)

Downgrade from EMUI 12

Two years ago i made a similar post - Back then i suceeded in getting GSM and everything was working untill a month ago when most stopped. So i chose to reset (Shoulnd't have... )
I am currently stuck on the very first step.
I keep getting "No internet Connection" when using Hisuite.
I tried the Latest hisuite .650 and downgrading normally, "No internet connection".
Disabled all firewall and no proxy.
Also tried .650 with proxy and following
Complete Guide V2.0

No luck
Also tried .510, using the red icon but no luck here either. In this case i only see that i have Version 12... and no option for downgrading.
Any help appreciated before i go down and buy a new phone

Yea this was the first place i went ofcourse and i feel like i tried everything in there. I see im supposed to just downgrade normally with hisuite and no proxy or anything, but "No internet Connection" prevents that unfortunantly.

I did manage to get it down to EMUI 11 now! I followed
Complete Guide V2.0
Modifying HiSuite and manipulating it's connection data to install Roms before they officially get released. - ProfessorJTJ/HISuite-Proxy
github.com
Previously i had not used the "add rom" method described there which did the trick.
Which version do i need to downgrade to from 11.0.0.230 in order to install GSM on the phone again? ELS-NX9, C432
I tried downgrading from EMUI 11 to EMUI 10 with HiSuite Proxy but i only suceeded with a .154 version. The .121 or .131 versions didn't work. I need to get it down below .154 right?
Error was stuck at 100% install saying "Cannot update"

There are so many pages and guides that it can be difficult to be sure if you are on the right path sometimes. And so many things that can go wrong.

Question AT&T locked S22 Ultra software update problem

I have an AT&T Galaxy S22 Ultra. For the past several weeks, I have been getting the following message when checking for updates: "software update interrupted, check again in 24 hours".
The message is the same whenever I check again on a following day. There are numerous threads about this on other forumns. AT&T is blaming Samsung and Samsung is blaming AT&T. No one yet has found a fix. Factory resets and clearing cache partition do not solve the problem. Perhaps the June update (which has not yet arrived) may fix it. If anyone in this forum has experienced the same or knows something I might have missed, please advise. WiFi is not the problem. Thanks.
I am experiencing the same, haven't found a fix as of yet. S22 Ultra, AT&T.
I HAVE A BRAND NEW S23 ULTRA WITH ATT.
SAME MESSAGE : " SOFTWARE UPDATE INTRERUPTED" IT HAS BEEN LIKE THAT AFTER THE UPDATE TO UI 5.1. NOTHING I DID MADE IT WORK.
IF ANYONE HAS A FIX PLEASE PLEASE EMAIL ME: [email protected]
THANK YOU
I have the same problem
To all that can't update your phones: Are you willing and open to use ODIN to "dirty flash" your OTA?
For those interested, here's a site I use to download firmware files: samfw.com
I have attached screenshots as a "walkthrough." I hopes this helps.
The issue resolved itself for me today; manually checked for an update and downloaded and installed the June 23 patch, CWE6, with no problem.

I got the same message as well and was worried until the update downloaded. But even after the update it shows the same message for a couple of days. Now it simply says no updates available. Maybe a server connection issue.
