Hi all,
I am looking to pick up a Mate 10. The one that the seller has is L00 version so I suspect i'll need to flash it to L29 C636 for my use in Canada. I am new to flashing Huawei, was wondering if I HAVE to use FunkyHuawei or I can unlock the bootloader and use another method?
If I am not mistaken, Funky just lets you flash without unlocking bootloader, whereas the other method is free but will need to unlock bootloader. Am I correct?

Yes, with FunkyHuawei you don't need to unlock the bootloader, and can also be used to convert from mono-sim to dual sim.
For the free method, yes, you need to unlock the bootloader before rebranding.

Needs to be rooted aswell for free method? If we pay funky for rebranding and dual, can we still get system updates or can we we update via Huawei Firmware Finder?

FH does nothing to stop you from getting OTA updates or from updating with Firmware Finder.

Hey, everyone, I just got the new P20 Lite running EMUI 8.0 and on the June security patch. Been through MT's Firmware Finder before with the Huawei Mate 9 Lite; however, I have seen that the app isn't working well with Huawei's servers at the moment - via the screenshot below.
How can I update my phone (model: ANE-LX3C605) to the latest security update (August) using the app - because, I can't seem to receive the OTA Update?
Here's the latest screenshot detailing the problem.
The latest version ANE-LX3C605 is not yet approved
You have to wait for the Full-PV so you can try that update :good:

Okay, thank you, King - but, how do I actually update it? It appears to me that Firmware Finder is broken.

instead use HurUpdate 0.4, its better than HwOTA8. HwOTA is quite buggy and broken. With HurUpdater, you dont need to rebrand your phone, however you should download the files which are actually meant for your device as per current ROM installed. Only difficult is that, you have to unlock your device which may result in data wipe, but you can always take a backup and recover. You also need to install twrp (I recommend Pretorian8 twrp). Rooting is not required for that.

Since Huawei doesn't give out unlock codes any longer for the bootloader, what's the best way to unlock my bootloader? Also, if I can unlock my bootloader, could you please also give me the link to HurUpdate?

For the time being, unlocking bootloader might cost around 5-15 Euros via DC unlocker. Click here for the detailed guide.
As the user states, you can try your luck to unlock your bootloader for free by mailing huawei care. I dont know how many had success by mailing though, but many succeeded by using DC unlocker.
Now after you unlock your bootloader, you can try using HurUpdater with detailed guide and download link.

Yeah, I'm not gonna pay 5-15 euros to unlock my bootloader... I tried emailing Huawei and they don't give any unlock codes whatsoever. Looks like I might have to wait patiently.
I have the same problem as you, with my p20 lite ane lx3c605, i´ve allready downloaded the last version from FF the b147, but the stock recovery doesn´t istall it, it stays in 5% then says error while updating, it seems the only way to have an updated huawei phone is paying for the code to unlock the bootloader, with my p10 didn´t have that problem because the official unloking code page was still working a few months ago.
Hi it's been a few years since I posted on xda I flirted with a blackberry then iOS and have now returned to android
I have the above phone and already want to root and flash a custom rom so does anyone know of a one click root app and does cyanogenmod still do roms?

Post your cust/build found in Settings - About
8.0.0.xxx (Cxxx)
Huawei stopped giving unlock codes for unlocking. Anyway there is no point of unlocking bootloader, because there is no custom roms
To unlock bootloader just use:
https://www.dc-unlocker.com
DC Unlock app or HCU.
You need 4 credits, in my case I was on android 8 update already and it worked flawlessly!
I did it, because of root. Adaway/Magisk/Titanium Backup.

Klem.. You are wrong. There are a few roms available for the phone which, of course, require an unlocked bootloader. So. IF you have an unlock code, there are roms for international versions: US devices are limited at the moment. IF you don't have a code, then you are unable to flash anything.

Nonsense! I've unlocked my bootloader and flashed one of the openkirin rims, Resurrection Remix! It all depends on your model and whether dc unlocker works.

4$ it's not a big cost to try at least. Probably refund is possible as well using dc-unlocker forum. I have seen some people there which got a successfully refund.

Just keep in mind, If you will have some problems with Magisk. After flashing the Magisk in TWRP you are getting a bootloop, here is a solution:

ALP-L29C185B137 has new xloader so I highly doubt it will work.
But you can test, they usually refund if you can't use the tool.
Chinese variants of EMUI 9 have lots of problems with Google play service,
Google play store Isn't working, .
As a non-chinese there is no use of a smartphone without Google play Service,
So i need to install custom global Rom in my Honor8X(JSN-AL00a),
How to do it?
Bootloader unlocked? Rooted?
If yes, you can rebrand to other regions.
But my device is JSN-AL00a,
Debranding possibl?

No its not possible. Because there is no method to unlock the bootloader. Nobody can sell you the code anymore. I have the same problem. We're stuck. The only solution is to change to a different phone.
Use hcu-client to unlock bootloader.i have 8x max I unlocked by paying 4 euros

Wait what?? I thought Funky Huawei or other sites provided the bootloader code? Is this not the case anymore?

i don t think so because it s write on DC unlock only phone under android 8, and i try with HCU for honor note 10 and it can t read my phone.

Correct, these sites no longer have a solution to unlock Honor 8X. I have personally inquired from all of them. I am willing to pay but nobody at the moment has a workaround.

First of all I'm hating myself for procrastinating this when I could have done it months ago, **** me
Second of all, why is that? They had support for many months, why withdraw it now?
I have a BLA-L09 (9.0.0.197 C432E$R1P11), my question is it possible to downgrade the Build to allow me to then use DC Unlocker or another to then unlock the bootloader?
I have seen conflicting information on here as to whether it is possible or not.
Many Thanks
No.

It is not just downgrade about. Read the post very carefully. He needs a particular version to unlock the bootloader by DC.

Once you've downgraded to 8.x bootloader unlocking is available, if dcunlocker does not support the FW other services are available, the issue with 9.x FW is bootloader unlock/lock commands are removed.

This is Mate 10 pro. You can unlock the bootloader today with DC if you have firmware lower than v. 145 ( C432.). In OP case he can downgrade to v. 157 (xloader 02) but can not downgrade to v. 145 ( xloader 01). If he try to downgrade from xloader 02 to 01 he will brick the phone.
If you have a good solution I will be happy to see it and I will thank you.
Otherwise please stop providing wrong or unverified solutions.
Just FYI Mate 10 Pro has been released with Android 8.
