Request: Guide to rebrand Chinese models

I have a Chinese Mediapad M5 and I'm looking to flash European firmware on it so I can access Google Play Store etc. I've seen some call this "rebranding".
Thanks to Apo11on's guides I've been able to unlock and root. I was hoping now I could simply flash a European firmware directly from SD card via download mode but it fails.
Any help would be appreciated.
So I think I've figured out what to do, but I'm unable to do it right now as I'm on the latest W09 C00 B124 build and the inbuilt software upgrade doesn't let you flash older builds.
Step 0: Make sure you aren't running the latest build. There has to be a newer version build for C432.
Step 1: Unlock bootloader
Step 2: Download your current C00 stock rom and extract the RAMDISK. This is a backup just in case.
Step 3: Download matching C432 stock rom for the same build. Extract RAMDISK and flash it. [optional: patch with magisk manager for root]
Step 4: Download newer C432 stock rom. Unzip and place UPDATE.APP in a folder called dload on your sdcard root dir (create this folder if doesn't exist). Update via project settings or download mode.
Does this sound correct?
I am trying to do the same for the SHT AL09 C00 LTE China tablet, I think you need to get the C432 oeminfo to rebrand, so far I know some one has only shared a C636 (Asia Pacific) oeminfo in the root thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/me...-root-guide-huawei-mediapad-m5-t3786157/page3) but it is 4 byte larger than expected.

Can anyone with a C432 (Europe) SHT AL09 LTE model to share their oeminfo, it can be obtained in adb shell as root by command: "dd if=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo of=/sdcard/oeminfo.img" AFTER rooting!
Thanks a lot and this will enable us rebrand the Chinese model.

Double post, apologies.
Ok that makes sense. Let's see if we can get C432 oeminfos for all 4 models - please upload if you can according to bear_alex's instructions above! Might help to mention the build number of the rom too.
I will update the first post with a full guide and download links when we have this solved.
@bear_alex
hi
my Build : CMR-AL09C432B123 Mediapad M5 10.8"
my "oeminfo.img" http://www.mediafire.com/folder/62r2uhqmcy8ly/HuMePadM5
if this help - feel free to use
Many thanks! unfortunately I am having the 8 inch model, so I am not able to use that but I am sure this will be useful for some one with a 10 inch model!:good:

"simply flash a European firmware directly from SD card via download mode but it fails"
for flash firmware read this https://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...flash-t3778085
this work on all my Huawei/Honor devices (OREO)
This is apparently the link JamesBott tried to post:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho.../recovery-bkl-nocheck-recovery-flash-t3778085
Curious if this works - and would this work somehow without adb?
In that link the patched recovery ramdisk is for a Huawei Honor View 10 BKL04 and others say it works on the BKL09. I don't think it's going to work on our Mediapad M5s.

seems @stag74 has this model "SHT-AL09C432"
I have sent him a message, for people who need to rebrand to the Chinese Version, I am sharing the oeminfo for the C00 SHT-AL09 LTE model.

I used the HCU client tool to change my version to EU, but still having problem with the rebrand. How do i get you the oeminfo file?
Does anyone have the oeminfo file for a SHT-W09 C636 (8.4 inch version if that matters)? I'd like to rebrand to Asia Pacific. Thank you!
The NoCheck-Recovery is patched stock-recovery and work (by me) on all Huawei/Honor devices with OREO
All have the same OS, but different build ( Hardware, LTE-Bands ... )
There seems to be no exact guide for rebranding our m5.
Exactly how will you use the oeminfo if you have already obtained it to rebrand?
Is flashing the ramdisk image not enough as written in post #2?
Hello. Does anybody have an oeminfo for Huawei Mediapad M5 10.8 Pro CMR-AL19 C432 (European)?
I have CMR-AL19 C00 (Chinese) and want to rebrand it. Tried method from here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/how-to/mod-oeminfo-structure-t3446382.
Could modify my file, but it didn't work properly. It shows me the region hw/eu instead of all/cn, but it changed firmware version number to 8.0.0.046 (86S) instead of 8.0.0.122 (C00). I could install 8.0.0.122 (C432) on it using Firmware Finder on Android. It failed to finish installation, but after I made a low level factory reset from the recovery menu, it booted. I have all of the international apps, Chinese apps are gone, but I can't update the firmware. So, the method is semi-working. Luckily the IMEI is the same. Will restore everything as it was before to start from scratch.
If anybody needs, my oeminfo is here (Huawei Mediapad M5 10.8 Pro CMR-AL19 (C00)) :

Hello,
I've got a chinese version SHT-W09 C00 and i want to rebrand it in the international version.
I think i'll give a try with the method of ravenHeart but i miss the oemfile for my version SHT-W09 C432
Is the country bit in the oemfile the only difference between the chinese and the interntional version?
Could i eventually try with the oemfile file for the 4G version SHT-AL09 or is there a risk of brick?
If somenone could post it, i would be very helpful

With the method I tried you don't need any other oemfile. I took an oemfile from Huawei Mate 10 and Madiapad M5 8.4" just to see as an example, what are the differences between my version and theirs. This script above decompiled all of the content, but you'll be able to modify only text tiles as there are a lot of binary files there, too. And the only thing I did is I changed "all/cn" to "hw/eu" there and compiled it back. So, you need just your own oemfile for it.

[Q] Huawei Mate 10 Pro Update

Hi guys! It´s been a while since I posted last time...
Got myself a Mate 10 Pro and very happy with it. My phone has the latest OTA but I read somewhere that there are more previous firmware. I downloaded Firmware Finder from Play Store and it tells me there are several newer versions for my phone. Is it safe to use this?
My phone has the following firmware:
BLA-L29 8.0.0.142(C432)
Firmware Finder tells me that the latest firmware for my phone is
BLA-L29C432B115a (8.0.0.115a)
I find it a little strange but what is really the newest firmware for my phone?
I use the Swedish version, not locked to any operators.

Whatever is the newest one, you won't be able to force an update via FF. It doesn't work anymore. I have just the same firmware, and see the 115 as the newest as well. I also see 145 as approved for installation, but it doesn't work. You can't download firmware. Huawei changed something on servers. All we can do is waiting for official OTA, or for Team MT to fix it.
Someone tested the BLA-L29C432B115a and it's an old one so no need to apply it lol

It is possible to update the version of the emui from twrp?

hi guys, I have read all the threads, but is not clear.
I have unlocked (stock recovery) and rooted my mate 10 with supersu with the april google security patch.
I want to update my phone to the last possible firmware, keeping the root.
so, which way I can? is there any twrp easy way?
In case no twrp way, which is the correct way?
It´s not clear in the forum for me at least.
my model is ALP-L09
compilation number: ALP-L09 8.0.0.133(C109)
thanks in advance

Update TWRP to pretoriano80's (If you haven't yet): https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/development/huawei-mate-10-pro-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3769904
Use HuRUpdater to update (Yes, it's in Honor 9 forum but works fine for Mate 10/Pro): https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
You will have to re-root after, there is no way around this.
I would suggest switching to Magisk though, SuperSU is not updated anymore.
Thanks for the answer, but in Huawei firmware finder, there is no ALP-L09 model (mine).
so, update is not possible?
i have to rebrand?
in case you know which OTA i have to download please tell me.
EDIT: i have found the version for my mobile in huawei finder. So, only follow the guide and then root with magisk?
no data (except root) willl be lost?
thanks in advance

Change region from 636 to 432 honor 10 emui 9

Hi I am on emui 9
With COL-L29 on 9.1.0358
What is the easiest way to change region on this thing. Wanna get ready for emui 10 or beta access In Europe
Thx
I think you can use FirmwareFinder from the Play Store and install new (legit!) software from there, through e-Recovery, however I've never used it before. Mnay other users have reported success with this method though so it's up to you....
If you do do it, don't install the newest version. Install the full-OTA update first and then install the smaller updates after otherwise your device will brick.
What is e recovery? How do I get it
anymore takers ?
