This is the official FunkyHuawei support thread.
FunkyHuawei is a (mostly) paid service which allows you to do the following:
1. Install the latest system software, even before it's released by OTA.
2. Install beta/prerelease system software, without needing to be a beta tester.
3. Recover a bricked phone.
4. Rebranding / Change the region of your phone (China -> Europe, for example, to get Google and so on.)
5. Root your EMUI 8 phone, even with stock recovery (This feature is free)
Except for rooting, all of these features are supported even if you cannot unlock your phone's bootloader.
To find FunkyHuawei, please Google it. Or you can find a link to the service as well as our rebranding tool within the following XDA Portal article.
https://www.xda-developers.com/exclu...-pro-firmware/
We are pleased to announce FHUnbrickFlashTool -- You can now repair any recent Huawei phone via fastboot, even if you cannot access eRecovery or boot the phone! Even if it doesn't show the Huawei logo, as long as you can get a fastboot connection to your computer, you can recover the phone! Google FHUnbrickFlashTool or check FunkyHuawei's reddit for details.
In cooperation with XDA, FunkyHuawei is offering a free credit to Recognized Developers and Recognized Contributers on XDA.
Please PM me for more details.
We will continue posting in this thread with updates regarding new software versions and releases regarding this device.
We will also be monitoring it so we can help anyone who has issues.
For device-specific information, please see the next post.
Honor V10 Information:
Rebranding (7 credits): You can rebrand the Honor V10 to and from the Chinese, Asian, and European versions.
We have released a special rebranding tool just for the Honor V10. You can find the link from the rebranding section of our website, or on our reddit. This new procedure avoids any issues with the device, and everything works after testing. We have tested rebranding Chinese to Asia and Europe brandings. Please use this FHRebrandToolBKLEdition, not FHRebrandTool, as this device has some differences from other devices we needed to address.
To rebrand to Chinese:
Use FHRebrandToolBKLEdition and choose BKL-AL20 for the model, and all/cn for the branding. Then use eRecovery method to install firmware from BKL-AL00 or BKL-AL20 section of our site, twice.
To change the phone to European, choose BKL-L09 and hw/eu branding in the tool. Then use eRecovery method to install the latest firmware from the BKL-L09C432 section of our site, twice.
To change the phone to Asia, choose BKL-L09 and hw/spcseas branding in the tool. Then use eRecovery method to install the latest firmware from the BKL-L09C636 section of our site, twice.
In most cases, you'll need to install the new firmware in eRecovery twice.
Unbricking (7 Credits): Contact FunkyHuawei support for help unbricking. You can use FHUnbrickFlashTool (google for FunkyHuawei Unbrick Flash Tool and check the page on our reddit.) You may also be able to use the eRecovery method if you can get into eRecovery.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does FunkyHuawei cost?
A: You need to buy credits on the FunkyHuawei website. The price per credit varies depending on the number of credits you buy. Different operations cost different amounts of credits. However, the Root feature of the Mate 10 tool is free, and as mentioned above, Recognized Developers/Contributors of XDA can ask for a free credit.
Q: My phone is bootloader locked, and FRP locked. My bootloader unlock code dosen't work. It won't boot. eRecovery doesn't work. Can you help?
A: Yes. With the Mate 10 this is now a common situation. Contact FunkyHuawei for help in this situation. We'll need to access your computer remotely and the procedure is a little bit complicated, but the phone can be unbricked.
Q: I can't get my bootloader unlock code/don't want to unlock my bootloader, but I want to change my phone to something other than Chinese. Can you help?
A: Yes. Our new FunkyHuawei Rebrand Tool works on ALL recent Huawei phones, to rebrand them to another region even when the bootloader is locked.
Q: I'm not seeing the latest version listed on FunkyHuawei or elsewhere as an OTA. Why not?
A: Huawei has a very odd and unpredictable way of rolling out OTA updates. You can use FunkyHuawei to install the new version immediately, or can wait for the update to be rolled out. It might be a month or more after release until the update reaches your device from Huawei directly. We have no idea why.
Q: Why isn't FunkyHuawei free?
A: Because many of FunkyHuawei's features cost FunkyHuawei money to provide. Features that don't cost FunkyHuawei money to provide, like rooting the Mate 10 or our TWRP build for Mate 9/Oreo, for example, are generally made available for free. There are also bills to pay, kids to put through school, and so on.
Q: I noticed FunkyHuawei in an XDA Portal article!
A: FunkyHuawei loves XDA, and is cooperating with them as much as possible. Recognized Developers and Contributors on the XDA forums are welcome to claim a free credit from FunkyHuawei as well.
Q: I have a different question.
A: This is what this thread is for! Post away!
Will the Honor View 10 like the Mate 10 pro show "relocked" if the bootloader was once unlocked before?

Yes, if you unlock it with the code.
If you use FHRebrandTool it will never show relocked, but only locked.

Dear Team,
had used your tool for Root and unlocking my bootloader in Honor View 10, now i wish to unroot and lock the bootloader as rooting made many features blocked.
kindly help how to do this.
I'm trying to root my bkl-L09 but when I downloaded the program I don't see an option to root just to backup my phone.

Hi @duraaraa,
I'm on Huawei Honor V10 BKL-AL20 8.0.0.132(C00). A bit confused. Will this "Mate10" Root/Rebrand tool and Rebrand (without unlocking bl) tool also work with Honor V10? What re-brand/firmware do you recommend for my phone if I mostly reside in Asia?

No. You need to use FHRebrandTool to rebrand the Honor V10.
Please google for honor v10 rebranding guide and check the result from the FunkyHuawei reddit for instructions.
The only version you can rebrand to right now is the European one, so that's what I'd suggest.

Please OP ... remove this sentence from OP, because it's not true :

I checked the PM, and you didn't ask for a free credit, or tell me the FH account you use. You just asked a generic support question, so it was not clear what you were asking for.
Let me know your email address from your funkyhuawei account by PM, and I can give you the credit, since you are a recognized contributor. However if you are on Andorid O with an Honor 9 as your message says, we'd need to have an Android O build for your phone/branding for it to work for you. Maybe you can let me know what branding your phone is (fastboot getvar vendorcountry)
Still looking for an answer on how to root my bkl-l09. I only see options to back up things when I download the tool

And i read, that some features doenst work after the V10 was root. Information about root V10 very poor.

But there's already a root method.
So what are the steps to root the View 10? Which tool do we need to use? I have the bkl-L09

Absolutely I don't want to rebrand my view 10, so what is this method? With the mentioned tool there are no way to root. I think that this thread is only a spam to make advertising and to get money.
There is a way to root Honor V10. From another thread, I read unlocking bootloader then flashing a modified boot img can do the trick. But when I read the Mate 10 thread about rooting, they've lost Theme customization, Android pay (deal breaker) and front camera bokeh effect (another deal breaker for selfie addicts? ). I wonder if Honor V10 has the same restrictions when rooted. Oh by the way, freezing/uninstalling some pre-installed apps when rooted can easily brick the phone. So I advise everyone not to freeze apps. That's why FH strongly discourages doing it. Other than that, we're good... ? ?
OP i tried to update my firmware from B120 to B130, i tried twice and it failed. Reason update pakaged could not be verified. My 2 creddits down the drain.
Is there something am not doing right?

Hi everyone:
Here is my situation.
I have a mate 10 6+128G. Device information:
Version: EMUI: 8.0.8
Firmware: ALP-AL00 8.8.8.129 (SP2C00)
Bootloader was unlock, I also root my phone, install TWRP, Magisk ... I also install Google Play, Google Service ..
Everything seems fine until I try to use Google Pay.
I got stuck when trying to register VISA credit card in Google Pay, MasterCard is fine.
I did a lot of search on China Huawei forums, and found China version of firmware got issues when register VISA credit card.
I have consulted my friends who have Mate 10, and they said they don't have such problem.
In my country, Mate 10 firmware version is ALP-L29C636, so I would like to rebrand my Mate 10 to this firmware.
But I still have some doubts regarding rebrand.
1. OEMINFO:
Should I replace my OEMINFO before rebranding ? From some post, seems it's necessary to replace OEMINFO with L29C636 version.
If I replace OEMINFO, will I lost my IMEI ?
2. After rebranding, Bootloader will be locked again. So I should use the same unlock code to unlock my Bootloader ?
3. After rebranding, I still want to root my phone. Can I follow the same method to root my phone after flashing new version of firmware ?
Thanks.

Talk to this guy: https://ministryofsolutions.com/
Its better and safer to spend some small $ and allow someone who is familiar with rebranding to do the job instead of risking and ends up in a brick. He did a rebrand on my Mate 10 from ALP-L09(C109) to ALP-L09(C432) and I can say it it's not so easy (in my opinion) so my recommendation is to contact him.

Hey!
There are many articles on HarmonyOS 2 release on M5, but on my tablet still no updates for about a year.
Has anyone already got it? Is there any way to force installation (changing region to China does not seem to help).
Only for Chinese Devices. Changing Region doesnt help you. If you are from Germany than your device will never get HarmonyOS or HarmonyOS 2
Did anyone flashed Chinese Harmony OS over international ROM? Please share the tutorial, how to do it

You have to unlock bootloader and install TWRP. If your device isn´t unlocked yet, i think there isn´t any chance to do so.
https://www.getdroidtips.com/root-twrp-recovery-mediapad-m5/
And then what's the procedure or guide to follow? Because I wasn't able to find any harmony img. I wanted to rebrand to Chinese version but I haven't found out how. I have already unlocked bootloader and have lineage currently running.

Have you had any progress? I was thinking about flashing the chinese firmware in order to try to update via OTA but I'm afraid it might cause any damage.
Hey,
could not find anything about this with the search function, hope its okay to open a new post..
Im wondering if the global ROM RMX3301 is working also for the 512GB-CN Version of the GT2 Pro, because there is no 512GB Version for global market.
Even at tradingshenzhen i can't select a EU/global-ROM for the 512GB Version.
Would be happy and very grateful for any information.
I have the Chinese 512GB model. I currently have the global rom installed on it thanks to the wonderful people on this forum
