Strange update please help - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

I need some help, I have a Mate 10 from China the Al00 version 6gb/128gb version. It came rebranded with AL29 115 (C636) flashed over it. Everything is working fine. When I check Firmware Finder app it shows there are updates available for C636 but these are not approved for installation. However when I check the (C185) update version of the L29 it is approved for my device. So I updated to this version which is L29 8.0.0.119(C185) everything worked fine and when my phone rebooted it was still on L29 8.0.0.115(C636) but the security patch was updated to the latest November one from October. I don't understand what has happened here? WHY HASN'T the build version changed? Why isn't any update version of the C636 not approved for my phone? I would appreciate any help thank you in advance

Interesting I thought about doing this myself, so you probably have the firmware files of .119 but still device details .115. Can you take a screen shot of your syatem/About Phone?
You would need to rebrand your phone I would have thought, currently only funky Huawei can do this from what I've read.
I'm in the same boat, all the C636 firmwares are not authorised currently for my device also. Update.app method doesn't work with out associated hw files and I'm not willing to fastboot the partitions to the device tho should work.

I have checked and I am positive that my phone is rebranded to C636, what I find strange is that others in this forum bought the same phone from the same vendor and it was rebranded by the vendor too. They are also in the UK and they have received an OTA to 119 from 115, I do not understand why this is the case.

Yeah I've the same device from Wandamobile.
I just received the .119 OTA update as of last night. You'll get it very shortly.
Seems to be in line with firmware finder when you check firmware access, as soon as my access was approved on the app I got the OTA.

Thank you very much my friend I appreciate that ?

i have the same problem.. my mate 10 rebrand by itself after i installed a full OTA via firmware finder. my mate 10 was 119(C636) then after i downloaded and installed a firmware 128(636) via firmware finder. it didnt change at all. my mate 10 was still on firmware 119 but the worst it became 119(185) when i try to download a firmware 128(C185) i cannot install it because it was not approved.. but when i try to download a 128(636) all is good but the problem is im still at 119(C185) after the installation..

Honor 9 UK Oreo OTA

Firstly, apologies if this is a stupid question - this is my first time posting.
I have been following threads on here about the Oreo OTA update and people have been confirming it left and right, however I still haven't received anything in the UK.
Is it down to my device?
Is it safe to follow a guide on installing it from FF?
Thank you in advance.
You're on C432B120 ?
I'm still waiting too - on C432B183
" Is it safe to follow a guide on installing it from FF? "
I've use Firmware Finder to update my Honor9 ( from 183 to Oreo ) with no problems, after a few days, without FF ,I get new OTA from android, so, I think it's safe. In my case : Nothing is unlock no root , nothing, only Stock.
Thanks for all the replies. I'm on C432B183.
I'll try the FF option
Just asking!
Hi all, March is over for us in the UK in just under 4 and a half hours did anyone get the official update to Oreo other than using firmware finder? Just wish they (honor) would of just kept silent on the update until it was rolling out instead of all this guessing
Cheers
Nothing here. I only got my phone a few days ago and it did an update but only to the same version as you guys.
You tried on wifi ?
Tried on wifi connected to their PC software, not sure if I want to go down the firmware finder route just yet as there is always a chance of bricking the phone and I should of mentioned it is a retail unlocked honor 9 bought in the UK from J__n Lew_s (not sure if we can, name names so to speak on the forum) again not moaning about the phone just the lack of official information even sent honor a tweet but I will probably wait and wait for a reply

FF is totally safe if you always use the IMEI approved ones. Also, use the full OTA files. (Larger ones)

Using firmware finder no doubt will work I was wondering will a phone updated that way still receive official future ota updates for security etc or once it has been used do you have to update using FF?
I updated mine to B180 via FF and got an OTA update for B183 a few days later. Also updated to Oreo via FF with no problems. My phone came from Three.

Yes, FF only makes your phone "skip in line" of the OTA queue.
Thanks for those answers think I will update it when I return from work later

I'm on C432B183 and am getting nothing. Firmware Finder is always saying that any new OTA update is not approved for the device...

[Q] Huawei Mate 10 Pro Update

Hi guys! It´s been a while since I posted last time...
Got myself a Mate 10 Pro and very happy with it. My phone has the latest OTA but I read somewhere that there are more previous firmware. I downloaded Firmware Finder from Play Store and it tells me there are several newer versions for my phone. Is it safe to use this?
My phone has the following firmware:
BLA-L29 8.0.0.142(C432)
Firmware Finder tells me that the latest firmware for my phone is
BLA-L29C432B115a (8.0.0.115a)
I find it a little strange but what is really the newest firmware for my phone?
I use the Swedish version, not locked to any operators.

Whatever is the newest one, you won't be able to force an update via FF. It doesn't work anymore. I have just the same firmware, and see the 115 as the newest as well. I also see 145 as approved for installation, but it doesn't work. You can't download firmware. Huawei changed something on servers. All we can do is waiting for official OTA, or for Team MT to fix it.
Someone tested the BLA-L29C432B115a and it's an old one so no need to apply it lol

Update from 8.1 to 9 but still showing update available

Hi guys,
today i updated my Honor 10 from COL-L29C432B151 (8.1.0.151) to COL-L29C432E4R1P9B159 (9.0.0.159).
At build no it now shows COL-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.177.
But it still tells me that there is an update available (which won't OTA because device is rooted etc.)
I thought i used the latest version available
At Firmware finder is see
Col-L29DC10E3R1P13T8B177 (9.0.0.177),COL-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.177 as OTA-MF and
Col-L29DC10E3R1P13T8B177 (9.0.0.177) as FullOTA-MF (what i think i need).
Do i have to update to one of those
I think that's the small update for fixing camera app and call issue.
It looks like you get an Firmware for another device? Firmwarefinder (Andropidapp) Shows only .159. for the Honor 10 COL-L29C432.
FunkyHuawai shows also the .159 as latest firmware: https://funkyhuawei.club/fulllist
Only a patch. See the screenshot below.
i'm just a bit confused right now.
In the past my build version was like COL-L29 8.1.0.151(C432).
Yesterday i flashed COL-L29C432E4R1P9B159 (9.0.0.159) LINK
And now it looks like this:
Why is the regional code C432 missing?
Can i now flash every firmware?
There is a 9.0.0.160 available
COL-L29C10E3R1P12B160 (9.0.0.160)

i think this is for russia.
The latest firmware i can find for col-l29c432 is the one i just flashed yesterday: COL-L29C432E4R1P9B159 (9.0.0.159)
So why is my phone showing an available patch?
Don't they create a new firmware for every patch?
Or is the latest one just missing in huawei firmware finder?
just officially updated
best regards
Mine's now also on the latest patch: 9.0.0.159(patch01) and not showing update available any more.
But it still doesn't show C432 and the other stuff..?
Still confused

Update to EMUI 9 Using Firmware Finder

Hi, I am using Huawei p20 lite with the build number ANE-LX2C636 and I have been stuck with EMUI 8 for years now and I want to update it to 9 using Firmware Finder, the question is which update should I choose from the list (I know how to check if the update is compatible with my device) since there is a lot and my Android version is very old, should I just install every compatible update starting from the bottom or what?
Thank you guys for your help.

Over the course of one month I've tried everything you said two times each, I even contacted Huawei local costumer service and they replied and I quote: "Judging by your IMEI number it doesn't appear that you have a Huawei device at the first place, that is why you don't get updates", so yeah, the phone that I've purchased from an official vendor with a relatively higher price than the free market isn't even registered.
Note: yesterday I tried to download a FullOTA ANE-LX2 EMUI 9.0. update via Firmware Finder and the download unfortunately failed.

FF won't help you, you can try get bootloader unlock code for 4euros on hcu-client.com , then rebrand your phone to global version. Or, buy Service ROM on easy-firmware for 17euros and upgrade your phone to EMUI 9.1 using dload method (yes, crazy ). Sorry, I can't help you anymore
P.S.: try a google search to find the method "patched HiSuite" or "proxy HiSuite", it may help you. Good luck!

The only issue after the downgrade, was the fact my phone didn't find any updates.
Latest update - upgraded to 1.57 by Hisuite Recovery. However the bootloop issue is still not fixed. IMEI is unknown and Camera has become upside down. I have very little chance to get support in my country from the service center where they refuse to support imported models and no option to send to UAE from where the model is from . Any tips will be highly appreciated.
Hello,
I have a P40 pro Plus with the buid 10.1.0.156 (C432E2R3P3) (FR).
I used the following method to downgrade to version 10.1.0.132 :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2b_lBPc-Hk
and for install GMS:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Lcq...ature=youtu.be
The only downside is that it is not possible to update the version afterwards, but it works while waiting for a possible commercial release from the USA.
Was on. 155 went to erecovery and right there was 11.0.0.126.
Chinese model an10.
Check it an see if anyone else is seeing it.
Does anyone get ELS-LGRP6-OVS 10.1.0.171??
I just found as approved in Firmware Finder.
Received 10.1.0.162 with October Security Updates today.
