I recently bought a huawei mate 10 china variant (L00) and I want to rebrand it to the international variant without using funkyhuawei. It's too expensive!! Is there another way? How about firmware finder? I already installed play store and all, but I really dislike the "China feels" of this variant. I'm too OC.
I want to rebrand my phone from L09 to L29. FunkyHuawei is really expensive, I'd need 7 credits, so I'd need to pay 50usd, which is 2 days of my work, I'm not that rich.
I'm looking for different solution as well.

Been using Android Pay without issue since purchasing the phone in November. Carphone Warehouse on O2.
Working fine on my Asian Mate 10 Pro rebranded to Euro version.
UK here and I can confirm my android pay isn't working

I've been reading various threads to determine if it's better to get the US or International version of the Mate 10 or 10 Pro
Is there a difference with unlocking the bootloader for the US/non-US versions?
Based on what I've read it seems to be more difficult to unlock/root etc the US version.
The Mate 10 specs claim that you can increase the storage via SD card in the Sim slot, but I checked a few Amazon verified purchases that claim there is no SD card via sim.
Lastly, I'm curious about ROM/Mod support, it seems pretty thin.
I'd like to install Magisk and possibly the ElementalX kernel. I typically install monthly security patches, but once I'm satisfied with performance, stability, and battery life I usually leave the phone as is.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
You are much better off buying a BLA-L29 and rebranding it as a BLA-A09 so it will work with VoLTE in the US on T-MOBILE and AT&T. If you try to do anything with a BLA-A09, you will likely end up bricking it. You can't force a dual SIM even though a dual SIM holder fits in the BLA-A09 and no memory card support.
Doing it the BLA-L29 way, you get the dual SIM and it actually works on the US rebranded.
That's my recommendation. I signed up for Funkyhuawei club to do everything.
Hope this is helpful.
I do prefer the P20 Pro over the Mate 10 Pro though.
Good luck.

OK, to make sure I understand this - BLA-A09 is US version, BLA-L29 is non- US. The BLA-A09 does NOT support dual SIM?
Rebranding ensures the phone works better on T-Moble (I use project Fi); what about APN settings - do they have to be tweaked to work with T-Mobile?
The ability to add storage is pretty important to me, so I was focusing on the Mate 10 over the Pro, if I'm correct, the pros sim slot does not support an SD card, but the Mate 10 does.
I assume rebranding is also important if I get the Mate 10 (not pro)
Have you tried to use the phone with Android auto? I've heard it doesnt work, and that the bluetooth connectivity is also dodgy.
Im reading Funkyhuawei on XDA now, thanks

APN should just come over naturally. But if you do not need a 2nd SIM, you actually are better off with the US version only because the cellular radio on the us version, the A09 is tweaked slightly better to pick up the US cellular better BUT software updates are like never on the US version or last in line. So it's kind of a toss up. I don't have connection issues with my P20 or my mate 10 and they are both Europe versions and I'm on T-MO. And P20 Pro does not support memory card either...

Also the L29 Version has more LTE bands so you need to compare those as well.
I was on the fence on these two models as well but pretty much decided the L29 was best cause if updates. I wish by now the A09 wasn't last in line as claimed (unless something has recently changed) I'm not really sure though but hearing about better cellular reception or stronger on the A09 makes me wonder if the L29 can be flashed with equal as to the A09 but again who knows.
I haven't purchased one yet as I need to sell 2 phones I have now first.

I found the Huawei Mate 10 ALP-AL00 128 GB unlocked for $575 with shipping, no tax. It will take up to 2 weeks for delivery via USPS, thanks for your advice.
Just be aware that only the A09 will have a warranty in the US. None of the international models or variants have warranty coverage of any kind when sold in the US (and they can tell what the phone originally was by the imei and serial number). Amazon sells the A09 and the L29 models (either one you can get pretty quick).

My question is if I bought the Mate 10 pro BLA-L29 version (cause of faster updates) but rebrand to BLA-A09 for VoLte on T-Mobile then will my updates be for A09 version (being last to get updates) or will my updates come from L29 for my device?

If you rebranded an L29 to an A09 you "should" get the A09 updates, there is an issue with the IMEI though as updates verify that number so an L29 rebranded to an A09 "might not get any updates as it would still have L29 IMEI numbers (not an expert on that though). With the lack of any warranty on L29 devices in the US unless you absolutely have to have dual SIM capability I would just get the A09 model.
how to recognize from the packaging of the mate 20 pro (dual sim) if it is branded or not?
I've just bought huawei mate 20 pro, the seller claims it could be branded. invited him to do a check on the package of the mate 20 pro, reports that not being able to say it before, we must open it to see if it is branded. I sent an email huawei still no response. Many vendors claim to sell the non-branded mate 20 pro, so it is very strange to know it is not possible to know it from the serial or imei of the pack of the mate.
Also if I open the package I have to activate it to see if it is branded, this could be a problem to send it back to the seller.
It is possible to defer the mate 20 pro not without unlock bootloader and without root.
I need some useful information to understand if I can recognize from the package if it is branded or not brand? or or it's an easy operation to make no brand
the mate 20 pro with firmware flash?
last sent back the parcel to the seller is purchase by another more serious seller. thanks you all

Announcements. the assistance of the haiwei replied to me. you can know by imei if branded. Bad seller. who knows how it's going to end.
I have a Mate 10 Pro in the US (BLA-A09, C567) stuck on EMUI 9. Huawei customer support is no help and based on some research it looks like this is the final EMUI that will be released in the US.
I saw some posts where people say that using a non-US SIM card can help get an OTA update - I ordered a free SIM from Giffgaff in UK, I assume I just need to pop that in and go to see if a new update is available? Is there any risk/danger to doing this and then putting in my original SIM? I want to update but don't want to brick my phone or lose features. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Edit: In case it matters, I'm on T-Mobile but am soon switching to Mint.
