Cross-flash kernel / radio from Huawei P10 - Honor 9 Questions & Answers

The basis for my question is that the Huawei P9 kernel could be cross-flashed to the Honor 8 with no modifications needed.
Basically the goal here would be to attempt to enable the global LTE bands from the P10.
What's the viability of such a re-branding?

It depends on what bands does the honor 9, if it does the same bands as the P10, then your suggestion might be achievable.

Android 8 with EMUI 8 for P9 & P9 Plus

Huawei P9 & P9 Plus will get Android Oreo with EMUI 8.
yes, perfect!!
good news, thx bro.
thxxxxxxxxxxx bro0o0o0o0
Let's hope for this
I have asked Huawei for the P9 Plus Oreo update, this is a translation of what they responded. Original message was in Dutch since I am from Belgium. I contacted my local Huawei support.
"We understand that you would love to have Android 8.0 on your device. On this moment, we do not have an exact date on when Android 8.0 will be available for your device, but it is to be expected on Q1 of 2018. Please be convinced that we are working to get all the devices with the required specs on the best software-update version, so most likely for your device as well. But when this is happening is still to be confirmed. We are currently working on the development for Android 8.0 update for the Mate 9, Mate 9 Pro, P10 and P10 Plus. When you will receive the update will also depent from your provider. Some provider tweak the update right before they sent it OTA to their customers. Please check for an OTA update regularly to see if there is an update available via: Settings - System update - Check for system updates."
I have a post dedicated to future updates. Check it out! https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/how-to/talk-future-updates-huawei-p9-plus-t3625111

You must contact EMUI directly & not the local Huawei Service, everytime local Huawei Service don't have any informations. EMUI 8 IS CONFIRMED FOR P9 PLUS, you can find also an article from xda site.
This is awesome, still a great phone that works stellar for me. And now the security patches have been ticking in lately so Huawei do start to look like the top notch they wants to be
This means that we are going to have project treble?

Beta received
[email protected] I also took part in the beta test EMUI10 for the Honor V10 and at some point was also offered the update via OTA, which, as expected, did not work because Magisk was installed on 9.1 358. So uninstalled Magisk via reinstall images, retry, update works. Now I am faced with the problem that I can no longer root (message if I want to flash the recovery_ramdisk again by fastboot: command not allowed) ... which is probably due to the fact that the original recovery_ramdisk for the EMUI10 installed by the ota is different than for 9.1, which I used to make the patched recovery_ramdisk for Magisk. The device is currently running, a downgrade to 9.1 is theoretically possible, but the Hisuite tool that is capable of this warns of rooted or opened versions (and the boot loader is of course open) ... Except waiting for a 10 OTA from which i can extract the ramdisk can you think of anything else? I have already considered flashing TWRP into the ramdisk, but afaik there is still no TWRP for the Honor in the version for EMUI 10. Did anyone save the OTA with the Emui10 Beta, so that i could try to extract the recovery_ramdisk fom that Emui10 version? Any ideas welcome! Thx...

Huawei y7p carrier aggregation ( 4g+ )

Hello guys .. im using huawei y7p week ago ... great phone ... my device is updated to android 10 .... the only problem carrier aggregation is not working ... there is no advanced option in menu to enable CA or inside developer mode ... is this phone support CA or not even the cpu kirin 710f support it
+ is there any code or app the find LTE channel bandwith 10/15/20 mhz from huawei device like samsung service mode ?
thanks to all
i find this option inside shortcut maker
I don't know there is any easy way to check Carrier Aggregation support but i think this device support only Contiguous intra-band CA like most of low-cost Chinese devices. I will try this device to my hand and then we know what combinations this device support.
There is no Service Mode exist in Huawei devices.

Yes mostly do inter-band CA... I think you can't get CA enabled with root but you can try. I don't know what CA your Samsung A7 2017 support - if you like you can get log from Samsung so i can list device to my website. Here is instruction: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...ions-from-your-android-phone/#Samsung_Devices . Custom roms use same baseband as stock - these files are normally signed so there is no way to modify.

Even on gsmarea have same specs that doesn't tell both devices modem configuration are same... Could have different supported combinations. But of course we can guess both devices have same combinations configured...
Huawei forum answer me .. the phone not support carrier aggregation .. is this CA merge inside the cpu modem or need extra IC on motherboard to work like wifi ic ... GSMARENA was put fake specs if this phone not support carrier aggregation
They just guessing because there is no public specs about carrier aggregation. That is big problem. That is reason why i have build cacombos.com where i list devices support Carrier Aggregation.

My experience low cost Huawei and other Chinese devices (example Xiaomi, Realme) support only Carrier Aggregation Combinations used in China and Contiguous Intra-band CA. But please wait - i will test soon this device when i get so i will update then details.
Example CA i think this support is 1C, 3C, 7C, 38C; 40C, 41C and then 1+3.

I don't know why it says 4CA in Gsmarea... there is too much wrong details about CA... Yes Qualcomm modem support that but Xiaomi seems haven't implement 3CA feature - i just guess more combinations -> more expensive. It's very common Redmi series support only 2CA because in China CA is much used.
My site data is based of modem logs - if you like you can confirm it in UE Capability Information message. Here is instruction how you could get it from modem: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...hone/#Method_for_Qualcomm_Devices_before_2020

huawei p40 lite 5g CDY-NX9A EMUI 10.1.1

Hello,
i want to install google services in my mobile. I have tried everything that i was able to find but still no luck.
Do you know if there is a custom rom that has already google services? or any other way that i can install google services?
Thank you in advance

Hi
I have the same device and tried everything with no luck, the device comes with a locked bootloader, unless someone can unlock it I guess there's no way to install a custom ROM.
There's the Googlefier app built by @Bender007 but didn't work for me on EMUI 10.1.1.132.
I had a thought to flash Magisk into the firmware and load it on USB but I have no idea what file to inject Magisk in, maybe that could work, anyone have an idea how to do it?
regards.
Look this tutorial: https://androidphoria.com/tutoriales/instalar-google-play-huawei-p40-lite
Also can see on:
There is another one, that seems OK:
Hey,
so here's what I found so far:
if phone was released before 2020 April (untill March) --> Googlefier method will work, else, it won't.
P40 LITE 5G was released in 2020 April shipping with 10.1.1 ROM, there is no 10.0 version - the end.
P40 LITE 5G ships with Kirin 820,whereas,
all other P40 variants ship with Kirin 810.
Kirin 810 has 10.0 ROM, whereas, Kirin 820 doesn't ( so P40 Lite has 10.0 ROM, P40 Lite 5G hasn't)
The only phone that has 10.0. stock ROM with Kirin 820 is Honor 30S
So there is ONE stock 10.0 ROM that runs on Kirin 820 (f yeaaaah)
(Also don't confuse it with Kirin 820E)
OK, so what?
Here are some questions to discuss:
Is it possible to flash Honor 30S stock ROM on P40 Lite 5G to boot into a 10.0 ROM to use Googlefier and to continue upgrading using OTA?
Android will think it's a Honor device ( I guess )...
Using ADB it might be possible to disable all Honor specific stuff for "user 0" (this wouldn't break OTA update)
With a basic ApkExtractor it might be possible to simply install EMUI stuff (most of it) like HMS core and such, so theoretically (if all dependencies can be met - smtg I don't know) you can login with Huawei ID and such .- if uou care at all
Aaand another (possibly stupid) question:
Would it be possible to Copy-Paste a sort of a "custom P40 Lite 5G" ROM using the Honor 30S kernel only, deleting all Honor system apps, injecting EMUI system apps and packaging a flashable ROM? I ask this from complete ignorance, I don't know if it's possible or not. Like, does EMUI have some sort of a certificate or signature that it can be packaged (or compiled) only by Huawei? No idea, but there's my 2 cents.

Question Custom rom?

Hello everyone I'm new here. I would like to know if someone's working on a custom rom for this phone. I'm new to MIUI and honestly it sucks and it would be good to know if I'm stuck with it for 2 or so years.

Why they stopped production?
Anyways hopes are not all down as you can flash a GSI (generic system image, searchable on google)
And also, galaxy tab original P7500 also have it's production stopped, and now, it gets android 8.0 unofficially
Well i will call it a mi 11 lite lite 5g as it is slightly tuned down.
But from xiaomi's trend most likely it will be called 'mi 11 lite 5G reloaded'

Unofficially to make room for Snapdragon 888 on production lines. Because is used in many phones and is very requested , 780 was used only in Mi 11 lite.
I'm saying that since number of sell Renoir is low, the possibly of a custom developer to have it is low . I hope I'm wrong since i have this phone.
No man, you're right, we'll be stuck in the vacuum.

Is there released kernel sources?
If yes then if someone decided hey I want to donate my phone to a dev then we may get custom ROMs. We may also get blind- builded
custom ROMs.
If no sources, we won't get custom ROMs, same as the 20 dollar mediatek cheap phones.
Damnit, I bought this Xiaomi phone in the hope there will be a custom rom. My Redmi 5 got excellent rom support. But reading that sales are low and to make room for other Snapdragon soc's makes me not optimistic.
My Galaxy A50 that I used for 2 years also got no rom support, but that was mainly because the security in Knoxx. I got used to that.
The Lite 11 4G version of this phone have a few custom roms! Why the 5G not?!!
GSI is enough nowadays. I added patch to phh-treble and works good

Over a month before you asked this many news sites had posted about the chip shortage, why 780G phones are so rare and why manufacturers like Xiaomi are going to circumvent the problem by switching to 778G.
Xiaomi will release the new Mi 11 Lite NE 5G tomorrow, using the 778G produced by TSMC using N6 unlike the 780G which is produced by Samsung using 5LPE.
