Use HWOTA8 to rebrand.

Using someone else's oeminfo is bad. It changes your unlock code.

There were instructions, but since huawei updated bootloader in some firmware (now all should be new bootloader) mankindtw removed the instructions as going from new bootloader to old bootloader (downgrade) causes device to hard-brick.
Im sure you can find instructions on Google.
Also you need to have unlocked phone to use this.

I couldn't find anything in-depth, the last thing I want to do is brick my device, suppose I'll have to wait till someone goes from C782 to C432 and then ask them how they done it exactly

Download and extract HWOTA8 zip, download update.zip public and hw zips for the cust you want to go to from Firmware Finder or http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/
Rename hw zip to update_all_hw.zip, rename public zip to update_data_public.zip.
Place all 3 in the repack folder in HWOTA8.
And here a tutorial I found:
"run rebrand.bat from the HWOTA8_Mate10 / rebrand folder.
*
Follow the instructions carefully and select the region in which you want to rebrand. For example you are in a firmware with region C636 (Hong Kong, Australia, Philippines, Singapore ...) and you want to rebrand in a European version, and choose a version C432. Always be careful when choosing a region that corresponds to your model of Mate 10 Pro (BLA-L29, ALP-L09).
*
Download a firmware corresponding to your new region and flash it using ota/ota.bat" -You should have them in the repack folder already.
"At the end of the installation, an error message will appear "software install failed". This is normal at this point, do not worry.
*
Enter recovery mode and perform a factory reset or let the phone restart until you see the message "Low-level format data partition" appear. Perform the operation.
*
Start again ota.bat and this time, the update will be done successfully"

I bought my unlock code from fnkyhuawei, then unlocked, rebranded and updated my mate 10 pro using this method, it worked out perfectly, i did not even get the first installation error, it worked perfectly. one suggestion though, when you umplug the phone to switch to recovery mode do not let go of the volume+ and power buttons until it turns on or you'll get a "download
latest recovery" error instead.

Guide to rollback huawei p10 from oreo to nougat

Hi,(I am spanish sorry about my english)
after a long time searching how to rollback finally I have found the way thanking to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/success-downgrade-oreo-to-nougat-t3729659.
In the thread the way to rollback isn't very extended explained so i decided to create mine and explain easy.
My phone is a Huawei P10 L29c432B.... .
Steps:
1- Download HWOTA8 from--https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2D9GdWntw69U3N2aDEzZjY2S1E/view
2-Download Firmare L29C900B217 or L09C900B217 depending your model (only are 2 downloads) fromhttp://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VTR-L29c900&firmware_page=0
3-Delete the row "echo - - update_package...... update_data public. zip..." from the file "META-INF>com>google>android>update-binary" from hwota8_update.zip from the downloaded folder HWOTA8.
4. Create HWOTA8 folder and copy the following files: hwota8_update and MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img (from HWOTA8 folder), and the downloaded firmware files. After copu the firmware files you have to rename them one has to be named "update.zip" and the other one "update_all_hw.zip" (don't write.zip extension).
5- Now you have to rewrite the recovery with twrp, for that you have to go to fastbood (VOL- and Power) mode and connect to the pc. Then go to Uncompresed HWOTA8 folder and run "Replace_Recovery.bat" after that you will have the recovery TWRP installed.
6- Finally you have to to go to recovery pressing VOL+ and power button then go to Install adn search sd_external and inside HWOTA8 folder from sd card install "hwota8_update.zip". The device will resboot and start installing the nougat rom, but after that you will have to rebrand to L29c432.... to unlock all the functions.
That's all now you will have your device rollbacked from Oreo to Nougat.
Hi!
Thx for this guid, it seems to be clearly and good to understand! I have only one problem: i can not find the row "echo - - update_package...... update_data public. zip..." from the file "META-INF>com>google>android>update-binary" from hwota8_update.zip from the downloaded folder HWOTA8 for changing... ???
I tried with notepad++, but i can not do this... How did you get this step working?
Thx a lot!

You have to unzip the hwota8_update.zip file into another location, edit the extracted update_binary file and then repack the zip. The update_binary file in HWOTA8_<date>.zip is a binary file and shouldn't be edited with a text editor.

First few times i had the same problem...
When the phone is off an you will hold "Power" and "Volume+" button to boot into TWRP, just hold "Volume+" after phone is vibrating... Then you will boot into TWRP...

The fact is that the recovery proccess is a **** in this model. Try to power completely off the phone and the Pess POWER + VOL+ when you feel the phone vibrates retire the press of power button and still pressing VOL+ button by this way sometime it goes ok. If TWRP load go ahead with the followings steps.
Other way it to reinstall again TWRP untill it loads.
Let me know if you suceed, good luck.
4. Create HWOTA8 folder and copy the following files: hwota8_update and MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img (from HWOTA8 folder), and the downloaded firmware files. After copu the firmware files you have to rename them one has to be named "update.zip" and the other one "update_all_hw.zip" (don't write.zip extension).
2. Download Firmare L29C900B217 or L09C900B217 depending your model (only are 2 downloads) fromhttp://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VTR-L29c900&firmware_page=0
non-functional link?
How exactly is it to be?

just to let you know that nothing worked,
went to a shop, they tried everything, uploaded older firmwares, but after that the phone died, only black screen, couldn't even switch it on.
warranty did the trick
the guys replaced the mainboard, nothing else helped
so i'm waiting now for the official update
Good day! Can I use this method for installing Official Oreo from Beta? What I would like to do, is skip the deleting of row then just flash the twrp and continue with installation process.
I'm on VTR-L29C636B361.
I would like to rollback to Nougat, for root reasons. I'm trying to follow this method, but I'm not able to find the right files. All I succeded to find is the "update.zip", from Firmware Finder website, but no signs regarding others mentioned ("update_all_hw.zip"). Where can I dowload the right files?
Moreover: I flashed TWRP 3.2.1. I would like to go back on stock recovery, but again I'm facing a lot of problems. I would like to extract from update.app I have (from "update.zip" above mentioned), but HuaweiUpdateExtractor gives me a lot of error. Any help?
Thanks!

At the HWFF website the link leads you to you need to click the "filelist" (not only the "update"), that will give you links to all the files needed.
For the rest I am not sure, would also like to get back to the stock recovery but so far found no way to do so...

I can give you recovery.img and recovery2.img for VTR-L29C636B162. I flashed this and then roll back to Nougat (B172) with FF.

Hi, I have one question
Your phone was VTR-L29 C432 and you used the firmware of VTR-L29 C900, so can I use the C900 in any version to rollback and after that, what would be my version? C432 or C900?
I'm asking because for some reason I have VTR-L09 8.0.0.046(04VT) and I want to rollback, then rebrand and finally upgrade to VTR-L29 C432 with a custom kernel.
Thanks a lot!
This guide realy work ??
hello, I test by cons I have a problem, once flash hwota8_update.zip, it tries to restart in recovery and redémre on oreo, a solution?
Hello, I have a problem in the rocovery that I flash wota8_update.zip I have E: unknown command [errno]
Updater process ended with ERROR: 9
Error installing zip file '/external_sd/HWOTA8/update.zip
Maybe this is a silly question. Do we need to change the recovery file since MHA is a code name for MATE 9. P10 use VTR. Is it still usable?

Debranding to India variant BKL-L09C675B151 (with Jio VOLTE)

Note- Files for BKL-L09 C432 added in 3rd and 4th Post if you want to debrand to EU version (procedure will remain the same).
This was working fine for me and should work for you as well if followed correctly unless your hardware of specific version/build number limits something.
Hey Guys,
Some background -
I was thinking of debranding/rebranding my Honor view 10 since few months but as we were lacking the full firmware, I did not attempt the same. As per my previous experience with Huawei/Honor phones, I knew I need at least OEMINFO file for the region I want to rebrand to and was aware that I need the custom.bin file to get the VOLTE working (in my case, Indian version). As soon as I got both the files (backup), I attempted it and was successful. So finally I am able to use JIO VOLTE calling on my Honor phone (only my Honor 5X had the official VOLTE updates). Recently, I put some effort and got VOLTE working on my Honor 5C as well. Now, I will attempt the VOLTE part on my Honor 6X which I already debranded from China to Indian variant (Guide in my signature) as was not aware of the custom bin and later when tried it was not working but I am sure I will get it working this time.
Coming to the debranding/rebranding guide for Honor v10, I debranded my Honor V10 BKL-L09C432 (EU) to BKL-L09C675 (Indian) variant. As usual, you need patience, all the files handy and trust in the guide that you will get what you want (Debranding in this case).

I am unable to unlock my bootloader now as it is giving me wrong password error (with same bootloader unlock which worked for me earlier but not anymore). I am figuring out the possible reasons for this. May be, post flashing the OEMINFO file, once its gets locked, unlock it there so that you are still on same old firmware but flashing the SD card update will lock it again (not sure if you will be able to do this then). Don’t want to invest for DC unlocker or HCU to get the code which may be the same as earlier code as serial number, IMEI and product ID doesn’t change in the process. Because of Huawei security , the unlock code can't be used anymore after rebranding.
For Safer side, I would advise to uninstall the magisk (during the process) and install stock ramdisk. (if you are using magisk as I have seen while coming back to stock from custom ROM that my IMEI was lost).
If you are using magisk then download stock ramdisk for your model. Download update.app via firmware finder for your curent version, use Huawei extractor and extract the ramdisk.img Thanks to @worstenbrood for his thread
You may skip trying reboot to system and then booting to recovery and all and save few more minutes if you are impatient and don’t want to wait for few more seconds.
Do not skip steps to backup the files and data (you may need it anytime).
DO not skip any step, it may take few more seconds only but if you avoid, you may face issue.
OK, so if you still want to debrand to Indian version, read further.
Download oeminfo backup , extract and save to TWRP backup folder on SD card. (path will look like SDcard\TWRP\BACKUPS\YourPhoneSerialNumber\TWRP Backup- BKL-L09 C675 OEMINFO) Thanks to @ankan1993 for sharing the backup on Facebook.
Download the custom.bin file and save to SD card. Thanks to @ankan1993 for sharing the file.
Download the full firmware for Indian variant. Thanks to @luckykhera2 for uploading it and thanks to @ankan1993 for sharing here
Create a folder dload under the root directory of SD card.
Extract the BKL-L09 C675B151.zip file and copy all the content to dload folder.
Download EU Ramdisk (if you are on EU version to flash during process for full stock boot if you have magisk, if you are not using magisk, can skip this) Thanks to @topjohnwu for his thread
Backup everything on you current model via hisuite.
Boot to bootloader as -
Code:
c:\adb>adb reboot bootloader
Flash stock ramdisk as below to uninstall magisk (can do initially via magisk manager and flash stock boot, I just flashed stock ramdisk and never did anything via magisk) –
Code:
c:\adb>fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'ramdisk' (16384 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.360s]
writing 'ramdisk'...
OKAY [ 0.095s]

Boot to system again as
Code:
c:\adb>fastboot reboot
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.007s
Boot to bootloader as -
Code:
c:\adb>adb reboot bootloader
Download TWRP thanks to @Pretoriano80 his thread
Install TWRP as
Code:
c:\adb>fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp_bkl_0.7.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'recovery_ramdisk' (23542 KB)...

Boot to system as
Code:
c:\adb>fastboot reboot
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.015s
Boot to TWRP as
Code:
c:\adb>adb reboot recovery
Backup everything in TWRP and copy the backup folder to external memory, SD card, PC etc (you may need it in worst case, I have but wont need it anymore)
Backup OEM (this may help others if they want to debrand to your current model) and save to a safe storage.
Flash the custom.bin zip file given in the attachment via TWRP (it is flashable zip)
Restore the oeminfo backup via TWRP (it is TWRP backup and not flashable zip as I was unable to obtain the raw oeminfo file and received this)
Disconnect your phone USB cable, if connected by any chance, from PC/laptop.
Turn off your phone from TWRP recovery option.
Press volume up+ volume down and power key together and dload flash will start updating your phone to Indian firmware.
Do not interrupt the process as it may not show any progress initially for 30 seconds and then will take around a minute for verification with a message verifying the update, upto 5%.
It will start installing the update from 6% onwards and it will again verify the package at around between 60% to 70% (for 3-5 seconds) and then will continue installing the update (may take some time while at 74%) and then will flash very quickly to 98% and then slowly to 100%.
Phone will restart normally, may take upto 2-3 minutes (so do not interrupt anything assuming bootloop or anything) and will ask for initial setup.
Once you are through initial setup, check about phone section.
You are on Indian version now with Jio VOLTE working.
If you follow the guide, I am 100% sure you will be able to debrand without any issue.
No more need to pay anything (51 USD) to Funky Huawei for such processes as you have your way of doing it on your own XDA portal.
Please consider donation if you can or want it encourages to make more such efforts.
Happy Flashing!!!
Screenshots post debranding.
Note- You will get OTA post debrand as well so no issues with that, Just got B161 update via OTA and installed successfully.

Download oeminfo backup , extract and save to TWRP backup folder on SD card. (path will look like SDcard\TWRP\BACKUPS\YourPhoneSerialNumber\TWRP Backup- BKL-L09 C675 OEMINFO) Thanks to @ankan1993 for sharing the backup on Facebook.
Download the custom.bin file and save to SD card. Thanks to @ankan1993 for sharing the file.
Download the full firmware for Indian variant. Thanks to @luckykhera2 for uploading it and thanks to @ankan1993 for sharing here
Create a folder dload under the root directory of SD card.
Extract the BKL-L09 C675B151.zip file and copy all the content to dload folder.
Download EU Ramdisk (if you are on EU version to flash during process for full stock boot if you have magisk, if you are not using magisk, can skip this) Thanks to @topjohnwu for his thread
Backup everything on you current model via hisuite.
Boot to bootloader as -
Flash stock ramdisk as below to uninstall magisk (can do initially via magisk manager and flash stock boot, I just flashed stock ramdisk and never did anything via magisk) –
Boot to system again as
Boot to bootloader as -
Download TWRP thanks to @Pretoriano80 his thread
Install TWRP as
Boot to system as
Boot to TWRP as
Backup everything in TWRP and copy the backup folder to external memory, SD card, PC etc (you may need it in worst case, I have but wont need it anymore)
Backup OEM (this may help others if they want to debrand to your current model) and save to a safe storage.
Flash the custom.bin zip file given in the attachment via TWRP (it is flashable zip)
Restore the oeminfo backup via TWRP (it is TWRP backup and not flashable zip as I was unable to obtain the raw oeminfo file and received this)
Disconnect your phone USB cable, if connected by any chance, from PC/laptop.
Turn off your phone from TWRP recovery option.
Press volume up+ volume down and power key together and dload flash will start updating your phone to Indian firmware.
Do not interrupt the process as it may not show any progress initially for 30 seconds and then will take around a minute for verification with a message verifying the update, upto 5%.
It will start installing the update from 6% onwards and it will again verify the package at around between 60% to 70% (for 3-5 seconds) and then will continue installing the update (may take some time while at 74%) and then will flash very quickly to 98% and then slowly to 100%.
Phone will restart normally, may take upto 2-3 minutes (so do not interrupt anything assuming bootloop or anything) and will ask for initial setup.
Once you are through initial setup, check about phone section.
You are on Indian version now with Jio VOLTE working.
If you follow the guide, I am 100% sure you will be able to debrand without any issue.
No more need to pay anything (51 USD) to Funky Huawei for such processes as you have your way of doing it on your own XDA portal.
Please consider donation if you can or want it encourages to make more such efforts.
Happy Flashing!!!

Base on funkyhuawei website, BKL-04 and BKL-09 can't be rebrand each other ; so I am scared to do the trial;
Anyhow my chinese latest version 190 with GPU Turbo technology has been rebranded to India version successfully. Thanks a Lot !!!
The manually rebranding method is completely same as Mate 9 rebranding method......
Because of Huawei security , the unlock code can't be used anymore after rebranding.... the unlock code can be only used by one time..

You can flash that via dload. Actually that was already tehre but as I was able to debrand using only one file and no issues, I didnt share. I flashed that on mine but that made no difference. You can try in your case. only 10-12 minutes for uplaod time.

If you have official & original india dload files, may it works ...
I think the previous dload files , is extracted from official update.zip ; if yes, it is not official sd update file ... the real official sd update file has different structure in the folder.
Anyhow , if you have other solution, please just feel free to share ...

It was correct file, see credit to person who uploaded the same. I used the same file and using my phone just fine. See my about phone screenshot in OP. I extracted the same file and flashed via dload without any issue. You may try renaming the hw_in.app file to update.app and try again and see.

yes, it works after renaming the hw_in.app file to update.app ; now the device name/storage/build number is in normal status...
Now I am updating the FF method again, hope I can get full ROM package this time ;
Also suggest Bro to have a dload with full ROM package inside , it is the best way. because I feel still lacking something even the phone is in normal working status.

Formatting with DLOAD method

Well, i want to exit of the list of safetynet, i tried magisk safetynet fix, nothing works, this happened after a HOTA Downgrade to Nougat because Oreo (EMUI B330) made me lose too much performance of my Mate 10 Lite (RNE-L03C178) and the APi interpreted the downgrade how a dangerous modification of the system for the apps or in other words a cheating action, i want to exit of the list of the api, i listened with a complete format of a device the safetynet will provide the apps (With SafetyNet block) back in Play Store.
Well i want to format my device with the DLOAD method or other method, could someone explain to me how to do it? (the process of the dload)
Sorry for the grand explanation and my too very bad english, my language is spanish...

In theory, you should download the stock rom from here: http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/
Then, unzip the file and copy UPDATE.APP on your SD card. It has to be in a folder named dload on the root of the card.
Afterwards, reboot on download mode (turn off your phone, then, press volume up + volume down + power button until Huawei logo appears). This should trigger the process to install the app UPDATE.APP file.
If you have TWRP recovery, you will need to go back to your stock recovery (on that... please search on this forum).
I hope this helps!

(Huawei MATE 10 ALP-L09) Hello, I tell you my situation, I am in the emui 8 version with cust 432 in the 150 sp1 version (xloader 1).
I want to try emui 9 so I'm going to switch to xloader 2.
I have the bootloader open and I'll leave it like this to update manually.
I'm going to use the HWOTA system, but when downloading the files of the latest version of emui 9 (version 159) I realize that 3 * .zip files are no longer the same as before, now only 2 files form it. The steps are the same? I put those two files in the Repack folder and then I go to the Ota folder and run the ota.bat ??
And another thing, should we rename those two files as was done before?
Thank you. A greeting.

Okay, but if You now running A8 , You can downgrade to A7 using HiSuite (Update > Other version) , or, if You have TWRP on board, You can downgrade flashing A7 firmware via HuRupdater 0.4 . It's strongly not recommended downgrade via dload method, it may brick Your phone.

Mate 10 ALP-L09 C212 EMUI 9 dload method

Currently on EMUI 8 and looking to update to EMUI 9 but I still haven't received the update. Looking to use the dload method maybe.
I'm on ALP-L09 8.0.0.137 (C212) but it's a custom version I believe. It says "Custum version: CUSTC212D001"
I was wondering if I could download ALP-L09 9.0.0.159 (C212) from FirmwareFinder (Says it's not approved for installation even though it's the same region, probably because I have a custom version from my cellphone provider AT&T Mexico) and install it via the dload method.
Would this brick my phone and how would I do the dload method exactly?
I'm on the same boat, and 159 has been in FF for over a month now only in FullOTA. Pinche ATT nunca aprueba rápido las cosas....

Extract the downloaded zip. Go into the Software folder, copy 'dload' folder to the root of a micro sd. Put micro sd in your phone, reboot while holding vol up + down. This will put you in dload mode where update will start (takes a while).
Alternatively you can open dialer app and enter:*#*#2846579#*#*, this will open Projectmenu. Tap on Software upgrade, SD Upgrade, 'yes'. Phone will reboot to dload mode and start update.
@ante0 i have usa version and it doesnt have microsd slot, i was able to download full rom from ff along with data rom as well, i extracted update.app, now do i have to flash each partition seperately or just system and i have no clue what those commands are, i have tried it with usb otg and dialer pad method but it said install failed, i also registered it in ff and tried erecovery method but my phone does not boot to erecovery only regular recovery, i can boot to fastboot fine, this phone was never bl unlocked, any ideas on how to proceed.

Currently on EMUI 8 and looking to update to EMUI 9 but I still haven't received the update. Looking to use the dload method maybe.
I'm on ALP-L09 8.0.0.137 (C212) but it's a custom version I believe. It says "Custum version: CUSTC212D001"
I was wondering if I could download ALP-L09 9.0.0.159 (C212) from FirmwareFinder (Says it's not approved for installation even though it's the same region, probably because I have a custom version from my cellphone provider AT&T Mexico) and install it via the dload method.
Would this brick my phone and how would I do the dload method exactly?

No, you can't just download and install it that way first off it is not approved which means your stock recovery won't install it, second there is no "dload" method for upgrades, that only works for service ROMs, and third, if your phone has a carrier provided ROM that is customized, updates will come from the carrier.

So I cant find firmware with my same region (C212) but could I still install firmware for the same model (ALP-L09) but different region? This one for example: Huawei Mate 10 orange all HLRCF ALP-L09 9.0.0.161(C109E4R1P9T8) Firmware 9.0.0 r3 EMUI9.0.0 05014VKY [androidhost.ru].zip

Nope, doesn't work that way, to use a different region ROM you would have to rebranding your phone to another region.

dload firmware has a sd_update.zip in it. That one you don't extract.
regular update.zip will not work with dload.

It's probably the same as the one on FF. So might be a waste of money as you have to pay for it.

Change region

Hi,
I succesfully unlocked my bootloader, now how can I change region /cust from a rubbish c55 to a more decent c432?
Thank you

There are three variants:
(for Oreo only, and keep in mind, that OEMINFO changing will lock you bootloader again).
A/ use HwOTA Tool
HwOTA8-ANE
B/ install TWRP for Oreo
link:
TWRP-oreo-smart
Download OEMINFO C432 :
OEMINFO ANE-LX1C432
Unpack .zip file and transfer oeminfo .img file to the SD card
Using Firmware Finder for Huawei apk, search for Oreo ANE-LX1C432 . Select FullOTA-MF, download the three files. (For example: find ANE-LX1C432B178 No.230902, download update.zip, ANE-L21_hw_eu.zip and publick.zip.)
Rename update_data_*.zip to update_data_public.zip
Rename update_full_*.zip to update_all_hw.zip
Don't rename update.zip.
Download HuRUpdater.zip
http://www.mediafire.com/file/r14sor2g4cbugzw/HuRUpdater_0.4.zip
Prepare an folder on SD card, like so:
myupdate/
HuRUpdater.zip
update.zip
update_data_public.zip
update_all_hw.zip
Boot into TWRP, flash OEMINFO C432.img (- in TWRP select Flash image). Go back to the main TWRP's menu, select Install , select 'myupdate' file and tap the HuRUpdater.zip , confirm.
You may need to press Volume Down for HuRUpdater to continue!
Reboot system.
C/ Download Oreo Service ROM , e.g.
Service ROM 8.0.0.178
Unpack .zip archive, find dload file in Software folder and transfer it to the SD card without unpacking it.
Install TWRP over eRecovery (you will need Stock Recovery due to the dload method).
Flash OEMINFO C432 , go back to the main TWRP's panel and select Reboot > Power Off.
Use three button combo to flash Service ROM . The process will erase all your data and will lock the BL again!
Note: how to install TWRP over eRecovery:
- copy to SD card TWRP-oreo-smart.img
- Download and copy to SD card Oreo Stock recovery~ramdisk :
Recovery_ramdisk
- in main TWRP menu tap Install image, then navigate
to the TWRP-oreo-smart.img, select
eRecovery Ramdisk and confirm . Go back, navigate to
Recovery_ramdisk-ANE-OREO.img , select Recovery Ramdisk and confirm.
How to boot into TWRP: reboot your phone, when unlocked bootloader warning appears, press Volume Up key up to 3 seconds to enter TWRP.
Thank you!

Just to let you know, even that I need a combination of method a and b. I finally rebranded my C461 version to the wanted C432. I've tried method A but ended with something like ( system.8.0.0(OSAV) ) with no update option.
I then used the files from this link to use them for method B to correct this issue:
http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G2496/g1789/v225235/f1/full/update.zip
http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G2496/g1789/v225235/f1/full/public/update_data_full_public.zip
http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G2496/g1789/v225235/f1/full/ANE-L21_hw_eu/update_full_ANE-L21_hw_eu.zip
The phone now offers to upgrade and I also get the C432 in the build number. So one step further to custom roms or just stay on stock and get root to remove some bloatware...
Thank you Alf for your help!
Fall in love with Huawei again?
