[GUIDE] Mate 10 Pro country change - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

Just new to all these tech things. Please bear with me for my basic and maybe silly question.
Got a Huawei Mate 10 Pro model BLA-AL00 dual SIM (China ),
Build number 9.0.0.184 (C00E88R1P15) GPU Turbo ,
EMUI version 9.0.0 with Android version 9 .
Would like to know if it is possible to change the software to an international or at least an HongKong English version.
Thank You

Changing from chinese to european ROM

Hi, everyone,
i bought the Huawei Honor 9 chinese version (STF-AL00), is it possible to change the chinese version by the european version (STF-L09) through only FirmwareFinder (FF) Software ?
I'm asking that, because i saw a tutorial from someone, where he changed the chinese to european ROM just using the FF software. Basically, in FF, after the proxy configurations, when you search for a model to update, you change the model name for an european model (STF-L09...) and, after that, when you go to update option from device and ask for updates, the newest ROM (STF-L09...) will be available, so just confirm to install and reboot.
The procedure above really works ? I'm asking that because this procedure was done in other Huawei device, and not Honor 9.
I'm not with the device yet, not arrived from China.
I want to do so. Some Phonefixer on Taobao said they can do that but it is a little expensive(for me and other Chinese).It costs 190 yuan to do that.

Just follow the link above and it should work.

Could that possibly brick your device? Seeing as the Chinese version of the Honor 9 and the EU version use slightly different hardware?

Questions about flashing firmware on mate 10 pro

Hi all,
I’ve been reading the forums here for a little while, gathering as much info as I could.
I thought I would collate as much information here as possible, so that its all in one place.
I would personally like to flash an international stock firmware to the Chinese Mate 10 pro or BLA-AL00 . From what I’ve read, I will need to install TWRP. I'm using a MacBook Pro, so i'm guessing ill need to also install the Android Debug Bridge.
Here are the details I've found so far.
BLA = Mate 10 Pro
ALP = Mate 10

Why Re-brand a phone
People may re-brand their phone as they way wish to try a different firmware, also some regions update their firmware quicker than others.
For rebranding Chinese AL00 you can see these threads.
AL00 Thread 01
AL00 Thread 02
AL00 Thread 03
AL00 Thread 04
Issue experienced with BLA-AL00
No location history in Google Maps
(more to be added)
Bootloader
For unlocking the boot loader one must contact Huawei to get the boot-loader unlock code.
Rebranding
Option 1
Go through FunkyHuawei, this will cost a minimum, of $51 per phone, you are expected to do this your self, and if you screw up your going to have to pay more cash out.
PROS's
Need more inforamtion
CON's
This can change your bootloader unlock code.
Possibility of still screwing the process up and having to pay more cash.
Need more information
I will keep updating this as and when I gather more information.

Hi all,
I moved this post to here after deciding i would buy the mate 10 pro instead of the p20 pro.
I,ve been reading the forums here for a little while, gathering as much info as incould.
I’m currently living in China, where I plan to buy a couple of Mate 10 pro’s, one for me and the other for the wife. The phones in China are locked down, with no google play, and installed with a whole bunch of local apps.
I would like to flash an international stock firmware to the phones. From what I’ve read, i will need to install TWRP. Im using a MacBook Pro, so im guessing ill need to also install the Android Debug Bridge.
Here are the details i’ve found so far regarding the firmware versions.
L09 = Single sim
L29 = Dual sim
B??? = Firmware version
Can anyone provide details on the C code?
Im pretty sure the Chinese phones i’m getting are dual sim, so L29.

For unlocking the boot loader I can get the codes from Huawei, which will allow me to install TWRP. Is this the correct route to go to apply the European firmware? Do I need to rebrand the phone, or can I just apply the firmware using this method?
Any help gratefully appreciated.

Personally I have no experience with rebranding but I do know that currently there is a lot going on with bricking this device. I refer to the post https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/how-to/discussion-hard-brick-infos-t3789044

Thanks for the advice!
Thanks for the advice guys, i’ve read through the issues others are having and it seems better to wait rather than risk bricking the phones.
I just cant justify paying an extra $65 to a company to do this work for me, kinda feels like they have a monopoly on the market. I think I’ll wait and see what the opensource community can do, I would rather donate to them instead. Kinda fits more with my way of thinking.
Also a big thank you to Coredown, who took the time to PM me a whole bunch of info.

how to rebrand Mate 20 pro from chinese version to asia version ?

how to rebrand Mate 20 pro from chinese version to asia version ?
Need it too
I would also be interested in rebranding as certain apps such as Google Photos (not uploading unless open) and Google Nest (no notifications) do not work properly even after adjusting the power and notification settings.
Would installing Kangvip help or...?
you may not do that .because the china version got software difference between other version flash that may cause serious problem for example the band support the system OTA

Media Pad M5 Pro (C431) HOW TO CHANGE CUST?

Hi,
I bought 1 year ago the Media Pad M5 Pro unbranded from eBay.
I never received any update till now Still on Android 8.0.0 ( Build Nr CMR-AL19 8.0.0.199 (C431)
Huawei Support told me multiple times there is no update available for my device.
But I think they are wrong.
I think it just got the wrong Cust (C431 is made for "providers" but mine has no brand but this firmware)
C432 receives all the updates from Huawei.
So my question is how I can change my Cust from C431 to C432 or directly flash a C432 firmware?
I hope someone can help me in easy steps I think I am not the only one on the whole internet with this problem but in non-forum a solution.
Thanks

changing to c432 (which is the m5 wifi version, with Kirin 960s not Kirin 960) is quit risky - bootloop
but u could go for the testpoint method and flash treble gsi android 10, need to open bootloader
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-m5/how-to/downgrade-unbrick-huawei-device-methods-t3915693
its a bit easier with HCU client and dc phoenix( u need the dc unlocker anyway -to unlock bootloader - unfortunatly no other way) but HCU is 20 bucks time license for 3 days
if you really want the the super easy way there is a guy doing it for 30 bucks but u need to give him access to your windows pc(i wouldnt do that) https://ministryofsolutions.com/paid-services
if u find an easier way pls tell me, i gave an cmr-w09 (m5 wifi) and its running super smooth on havoc os(custom android 10)

Currently 2 versions: CN and IN.
There are stock roms for the CN version but no Indian roms (maybe too soon).
Exactly the same phone except the bands depending on the region.
It seems to me that Xiaomi does not plan to sell it in markets other than China and India.
In this case, there will never be a global version.
It is on sale in Indian version on Amazon.in, not sure that he can send it elsewhere than in India.
Maybe Xioami Eu rom will provide roms for this phone.
The pro version will exist in a global version but unfortunately with a Mediatek soc.
but india version have other languages? or ony en /cn / india ? how do You known that pro will be elswhere? and when ?

The redmi note 12 is the continuation of the 11 and the 11 exists in a global version. When? for the 13 (CN presentation December 1 and the global version presentation February 27).
Never installed IN rom but the Indonesian has multi language.
"It seems to me that Xiaomi does not plan to sell it in markets other than China and India." added for now.
Maybe wait for a Global version.
Redmi Note 12 will be launched Brazil as global accord xiaomi did certificates
