Firmware Finder - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

I have two Mate 10s, one is the ALP-AL00 and the other is the ALP-L29CC636. Firmware Finder shows that updates are available for both of these devices but when I select to download them the System update says 'No updates'. How do I update them?

As of June Huawei started using https so FF can't send it to System Update. You would have to use HWOTA or TWRP with HuRUpdater.

Thanks ante0
Does that mean I should wait for the official updates from Huawei instead? And does using HWOTA require root?

HWOTA requires unlocked bootloader, same as TWRP.
You could wait, AL usually get updates fast
And FW shown on FF can be beta and test too, so just because a new fw appeared doesn't mean it will be pushed to devices eventually.

Ok, I think I'll wait a little while longer.
Thanks again ante0.

The ALP-L29 8.0.0.138(C636) is actually approved for installation according to FF. So it shouldn't be to long...

with all respect, it seems you have more infos if you know the difference between OTA and FF. Can you be more explicit ?

Firmware Finder provide a forced installation,
IMHO, this method differs from a regular update received via OTA (because you do not respect the scheduled update times).
I suspect a manual update may cause delays in subsequent updates

not really, through FF nothing is forced because there is no root or unbricked bootloader, all is about is availability of firmwares, on operating systems nothing is touched, updates are performed from OTA actually, it is just a trick per se .
anyway, back to our sheeps, i have buddies who got Oreo updates and were on B185 from FF, is not my situation but as somedody says before is like imei lottery

All true. With the term "forced" I mean that it is installed without respecting the timing established by Huawei for its IMEI code.
So... I hope to receive the update soon.

FF's database was down, it's back up now.
My firmware is the bla-L29 8.0.0.126 and I'm still with the March security patch.
To update, pay the Funkhuawei or wait for the update to arrive?
Hi,
HFF'S work properly for me, I have mate 10 pro L29-C185 this afternoon I find .133 firmware (previously I was on .126) downloading I just installed it. Everything it's ok
Is it possible to download the firmware and flash it with TWRP?

Was the firmware approved for download? In my bla-L29 8.0.0.126 says that the firmware are not approved for download, although it manages to download using FF itself.

Internal storage, but you'd need to update TWRP to this one which has decryption support: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/development/huawei-mate-10-pro-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3769904

I'm using this one. Was the first one with an BLA-L09 device. If I place it on the internal storage, won't it be deleted, because I've to wipe all partitions? Sry for so much questions, I only won't brick my phone. Now a lot about this stuff, but each phone is unique and has its own special things to look for.

You don't need to Wipe anything. Internal sd is mounted in /data which is not wiped.
Well, it's either that or use HWOTA to update.
Or wait for firmware to be approved

It's approved for my device. But it should be blocked on the device or I'm wrong. On my last devices, I wasn't able to update the original firmware from the system itself, because TWRP and Magisk were installed.

Yeah, you'd have to restore stock Recovery, and OTA might install (it checksums partitions and if they don't match the update fails)
You could still use Firmware finder to install FullOTA.

How to root ALP-L29 8.0.0.138 C636patch01?

Hi there,
Now that Magisk won't install on ALP-L29 8.0.0.138 C636patch01 (july 1st security patch), is there a way to root with this firmware and especially this security patch?
Regards,
Does anyone know how to root this firmware version? Been scouring the web all week with no information
You should be able to downgrade to B138 using eRecovery, this would remove Patch01.

No, unlock is not needed for eRecovery.
However, if you rebranded eRecovery will usually fail to get package.

No way to do it.
Only way you could try is dload to B138, BUT I'm not certain what happens if you're now on 02 xloader.

but i read in some places and someone confirm 8.0.0.138 01patch is 01xloader, but i think or maybe the problem is from the newer security patch 1 july 2018. Funky huwaei support team told me that they can't read bootloader or rebrand also said erecovery will not working after debrand since 01 july newer security patch.
the problem too is i went to teammt.ru site for downloading 8.0.0.138 full rom but it's not available to download. maybe FF working not tried, but anyway i think i have to live with this, until huawei open unlock bootloader service again.

Pie upate

I was able to download the huawei pie full update zip and data from FF and how do i flash it using fstboot, do i just flash the system or do i have to flash all the partitions within the update.app as its changing to pie from oreo and what are the commands to flsh the partitions, nit sure if it will flash as it is still unapproved and bootloader might deny flashing it i am not sure, any ideas.
I was able to install the ff firmware using beta flashy 0.2 tool and all is well.

Did it wipe all your data?. Hopefully not.
I got the official update on my mate 10 pro
The version is 9.0.0.159
The downside is the camera app seems unstable, and crashes every so often..

Sorry to revive such an old post but wanted to ask you how you used the flashy tool. Did you drop the 2 pie files into the "zips here" folder? Did you need to unzip the pie update files? Another post mentioned unzipping but maybe that was because it was a p20. Did you use the beta pie files or actual non beta files? Has it been able to get normal updates ota since then? Thank you

Not, theres no way to flash FW from Firmware finder. You can upgrade to higher EMUI version flashing Service ROM using dload method only. Afaik there's no Service ROM EMUI 10 for BLA models yet. IMO wait for OTA update.
P.S.: The best method to upgrade via Service ROM is searching for the Service ROM on https://androidhost.ru/ and doing the dload method. Process will erase all the data from your device !
(Before you do anything, read carefully Software Upgrade Guidline in "ReleaseDoc" . With Service ROM you will get full stock with locked bootloader. It is very important to choose your region! (C636, C432, etc.)
You have found some way to install it, since and tried in all ways and still do not know how to update it[emoji26]
