Hi, was looking at the Mate 10 ALP-AL00 as it appears to be available now by resellers. Can anyone confirm if the bands on this Chinese model are sufficient for Europe? And any other potential issues? Thanks.
I think that is Chinese, I believe the international is L29.

Yes, since AL00 has even more bands supported than ALP-L29 (version that will be sold in Spain, for example).
See bellow Mate 10 ALP-L29 (Huawei Alps) vs. Mate 10 ALP-AL00 (Huawei Alps) Frequency Band Comparison
https://www.frequencycheck.com/comp...-mate-10-dual-sim-td-lte-alp-al00-huawei-alps
The only hiccup you get with buying Mate 10 ALP-AL00 (Huawei Alps / China) is that although it does include English language there will be few parts in EMUI that are not fully translated therefore re-branding will be necessary (see link bellow for the rebranding tool and info) to have it without any chinese language leftovers throughout the system. After re-branding is done your phone will "act" like the ALP-L29 version with all OTA's and everything working

Did you have opportunity to check if dual sim is active or it is only standby?
Can you you be more specific? When you say that parts of the OS will still be in Chinese are you referring to system files that the average user will not be using and doesn't need to care about or part of the user interface that will be interacted with regularly or occasionally.
Why!!!
I bought a ALP-AL00 like it says in the box and in the cellphone itself.... I bought that version because of de 6Gb RAM and 128Gb ROM... BUUUUUUT... The firmware says it is ALP-L29.... I checked de imeis and both are the same that is shwon in tthe box.... Why?????

Unless you are in China, that is actually a good thing... AL00s are models for Chinese market, with different software and no Google apps. The fact that it say inside the phone software that it is L29 model means it has been rebranded to international software, with fully translated apps, Google apps and international OTAs

Honestly, I don't know. I haven't had the chance to test and use it. But as mich as I've read on dozens of threads here and online, yes - it should be a good thing.

i would recommend to rebrand to bla29 aka the international version, but only possible via funkyhuawei so it will cost you 31 US $
Thanks that I Will do now just to choose The right firmware.
I think so it's more than 31$ because my boot loader is locked.
So, I'm seriously torn between which Mate 10 I want, the ALP-AL00 or the ALP-L29. The L29 would cost be about $600, where the AL00 would hit me for about $840.
I feel like I'm not a super power user so I wouldn't notice any kind of a difference between 4gb and 6gb, but at the same time I want the best.
I have a Mate 10 AL00
I rebranded my phone to L29
Will the LTE bands on my phone work like AL00 or L29?
I own an alp-al00 6gb version which is Only availble in china. Installed all the google stuff easily. And if you change the language its all English.

Same here, I bought the AL00 6gb version in china, and use it in USA without a problem. I download all the google stuff. The phone can automatically receive updates without a problem.

I'm also using the AL00, however, Google Location History does NOT work. Does anyone know how to make Google Location History to work on AL00? Thanks!

Yes if you are in eu you need to rebrand to c432 because the problem it's only for Europe huawei still didn't added eu country's to the list for associate the phone services with huawei ID that's why in the rest of countries in the world they don't have this problem With notifications with cn version of huawei devices
I had a honor v9 and I had the same problems In Spain then I rebranded to c432 and any more problems with notifications before that I need to have opened the apps for recive notifications
Anybody in the UK manage to get Huawei Cloud working? I keep getting "Service unavailable in your region"
I take that as a no? Does nobody in the UK have a Mate 10 or Pro?
I get the same
Me too i get the same response. Plus uptill now I've not received OTA for 119 latest firmware. Tried with Hisuite but got the response that i have the latest even though am on 115.
So even though the phone has been released in the UK, some features don't work

Mine is the non-pro version which has not been released in the UK officially and I thought that was why it didn't work. Is yours the Pro?
Mine is the non-pro
Anybody managed to get it working? Is it worth contacting Huawei?
Same problem with the Mate 10 Pro in Switzerland...

What's your firmware version?
It's 115
It's probably related to the region. UK version works fine in the UK. For Chinese or other versions outside their region it doesn't work.
Ok, looks like I'll need to rebrand from L29 to L09 after talking to Funky Huawei
I have a gulf version in Türkiye and cloud doesn't work.

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.

I just saw the FunkyHuawei can reband the U.S. version of mate 10 pro to chinese version. Has anyone done that before?

I'm pretty sure that I read that doing that will brick your phone. Our US variant is a weird cousin that is trying to get along with the other M10P's, but he just needs to sit at a separate table.
Don't do it.
