restoring stock modem firmware - Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers

I tried rebranding to c342 from c185 and reverted back but my sim doesn't work and I presume my baseband was updated to European and didn't go back to the middle eastern one.
Could that be? Any advise how to fix it?

UPDATE: Problem fixed using HuRUpdater and flashing stock roms zips with it. HWOTA8 doesn't fully flash all partitions so I advise using this one instead.
Please close thread.

Yes you can, im from serbia , i flashed with UK Ireland firmware
Do you lose OTA updates once you flash this UK ireland firmware for example? Do you need to factory reset/root/install twrp or Odin is enough?

Odin is your friend, no need for root or twrp. OTA will work. I live in the Netherlands and dirty flashed the unbranded UK/Irish version on my son's G925F, which had a Nordic Marshmallow version installed. Worked fine. The Vodafone branded version for the Netherlands did not work, but maybe I should have removed the SIM card first, since this was no Vodafone SIM. You can change the language into any language you prefer.

I bought mine in Denmark, so Nordic version as well I guess, but I never tried using Odin, can you provide some more info? Do I need to factory reset or it keeps all my data, I am also on Marshmallow (G925FXXU5DPL5 baseband), It's Unlocked, any sim works in it.

If you go to the firmware page of sammobile you will find the instructions for installing and using Odin. It's not complicated. I did a dirty flash and that went well. All apps and data were unaffected.

No SIM with custom ROM

Hi All,
I'm having a bit of an issue. I updated from KangVIP 127 to 130, however upon doing so my mobile data is disabled, I reverted back to build 127 and it's still disabled. I tried searching for others with this issue or solutions and was having trouble finding anything of worth.
Entering the mobile network settings menu, immediately boots me back out to the main settings menu. I figure Ill likely have to do a backup and hard reflash, but I was hoping someone else had ideas.
What device? What version is your stock firmware? From what I experienced, KangVIP 130 needs stock firmware B135 for Mate 10 ALP-L29.
To get back to stock, just turn on OTA updates in KangVIP, connect to wifi, then download latest full firmware from Firmware Finder that's approved for your IMEI.

Using the OTA will revert you back to stock so root is gone but bootloader will stay unlocked.

IMEI lost after flash wrong firmware

Hi to all
A Spanish mate, who has a BKL-AL00 flashed a wrong firmware, a firmware for other variant, now he has lost both IMEI. Service center said that the only solution for this is changing the motherboard.
I've read in other Honor subforum, I don't remember which, someone bring a solution flash a previous firmware and wait for the OTA.
Anyone has boot, ramdisk and system for BKL-AL00 to flash it?
Or know any other solution to this?

HELP TO UPDATE MY MATE 20 PRO (c212)

Hi, i have a mate 20 pro model c212 (at&t mexico), i want to install a new firmware for example c62 or c432, i can? or not? Pleas help me!
You could update main base easily, but that could screw the futur C212 stock OTA Updates if the new base version number you re flashing is not or won t be an official C212 base version number.
What is the matter with your LYA C212 ?
-still on emui9.0 and you want emui9.1 ?
-security patches date too old on latest C212 ?

I am currently in version 9.1.320 of att mexico (212), but the Telcel version (C69) is updated faster, what I fear is that EMUI 10 does not arrive because of the att issue
Ok.
So no, there is no way to rebrand your M20P with a locked bootloader.

And you know how to install an update if my operator does not?
You could use a service firmware to change cust, preload and base to a different region. I did this back and forth from C432 to C636 when I saw fit using the dload method.

dload will just skip the out-of-region cust and preload files ; only base will be applyed.

Hm, when I used FH a while back it switched me to C636 - and every OTA I received was C636 - I couldn't return to C432 via any method until I tried dload and it worked for me. It may be because my device is natively C432.
I still don t understand how these previous FH updates managed to softrebrand just fine kirin980 devices.
Your build number once rebranded, in about phones, was then C636ExRyPz or you were missing the RyPz part?

Included RP section, so it successfully rebranded, and then I managed to move back to C432 using dload.

Is it currently possible to do? For the bootloader issue, can you show me the guide you followed to flash?

There will be guides around on our device forum. But basically requirements:
USB Stick (formatted exFAT)
USB OTG
You will need to download the service firmware, for this I used androidhost ru and firmware 9.1.0.300 C432.
You will have 3 zip files inside the firmware, you must create a folder on the USB stick called 'dload' and inside this folder you put the three zip files (named like update_sd_base.zip etc). Plug USB stick into device with OTG adapter and then open dialer and type *#*#2846579#*#* and choose software upgrade then memory card upgrade. Should restart and upgrade device to your new firmware (don't unplug USB during this process and make sure you have above 30% battery)
I though he was speaking about how to softrebrand with FunkyHuawei...

Well if he was speaking about that then there's no guidance I can provide him. It's a paid service and doesn't really require a 'guide' as it's simple. He can check out their website, but regardless - if he wishes to try the dload method then there's there guide.

So just to clarify, you're saying that you can rebrand a Huawei devices Cust code from example a C432 to C185 without bootloader being unlocked?

I'm in the same predicament. Previous owner flashed the firmware from C792 (Canada) to C636 (Asia) via FunkyHuawei. And now I'm not getting any OTA updates and stuck on 9.0.0265. I would like to re-flash my fw back to c792 and I have the bootloader unlock code for my device, but I'm unable to find any guides to help me achieve this. Will the guide you provided work for me as well?

Haven't tried other countries, but Hong Kong worked.
