for ANE-LX2C636 right now have not any files for dload method, it will not work (that firmware you download using huawei firmware finder inst for dload, for dload need specific package to work)
You can use Huawei eRecovery (to repair your device from brick, from broken build number etc. All data will be deleted, save it before, if can)
then are harder methods with bootloader unlock etc, read here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...om-official-emui-8-0-huawei-p20-lite-t3773999
But remember, you need to use right build numbers for device, to be succes.
about "System 8.0.0.046(070F)" you crosflashed wrong build number, and, there shuldnt be any problems with IMEI, didnt get that part " Service And They Installed IMEI Repair Firmware", i guess they just used "Huawei eRecovery" what is simple to do, read about it in given link (eRecovery works for all phones, atlest, shuld to work if phone are not hard bricked)
to enter in eRecovery, disconect usb if conected, turn off phone, press wolume down and power on phone, keep presing wolume down, till its boots in eRecovery! or can do as in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wv1huoy6biM

The warranty is invalid just unlock bootloader
When the red text shows, just unlock bootloader again and repeat steps for installing twrp and root.
You don't actually need the update extractor, since you can just type in the version of VIE you'd like to transfer to. ( VIE-L29C185B152 example ). After that just flash the b152 ( or any other rom you've named in step 10 in SRK tool ) using sd card method. When you install stock recovery again you should be recieving OTA updates.

At the time i got so mad and frustrated that i moved to iPhone 7!
But... You know... Apple have those limitations that i'm not used to, like mirror to TV just by enabling a feature without having to buy a box to do it! The share system PC-over-PHONE etc etc...
So i'm wiling to go back to Huawei and i might get another P9 Plus or Mate 9, still deciding.
But really thanks for the time you spent to reply me to try to solve some one else problem! Really appreciated.
By the way, does P9 Plus operator variants will get Nougat? Couldn't find the confirmation anywhere.
Ah, backstabbing android ?
Yes the Nougat update is coming soon! As official huawei page and chat said to me. It is ought to happen this month so i am eagerly awaiting for it every day. I would strongly suggest you go for a Mate, that is my wish also. Also, you could stick with that bitten apple for a couple of months and grab a Huawei P10 that is also coming with + suffix let's say somewhere in april, may, like the P9 did last year.
Cheers mate, all the best luck in returning to android family ?
Hello together,
today i wanted to rebrand my honor 9 from STF-L00 to STF-L09 and everything worked fine for me at the beginning. I unlock my bootloader and then i used the update.bat and follow the instructions. It installed TWRP. After a while nothing happened and i was still in the fastboot mode. In the fastboot mode i saw that my bootloader is locked again.
Now i have no OS and cannot used adb via fastboot, it does not recognize any device detected.
I downloaded MultiTool and it says i have installed STF-L09 now on my phone.
Info:
According to MultiTool is STF-L09 installed
Bootloader and FRP are locked
I just have Huawei eRecovery, but this is not working (Pacakge info fails)
I have no rom, because my phone is booting only in eRecovery
adb fastboot does not get recognized my phone.
Have all drivers needed on pc for adb to work.
HiSuite doesn't support recovery on this device.
Please help me, i don't know what i should do and i really start to despair. :crying::crying::crying:
Thank you very much
I have pretty much the exact same problem. The only difference is I was trying to rebrand from AL10 to L09. Got the same error in the same stage of rebranding, can access the exact same things as you, same goddamn FRP lock etc. Same all the way through except for starting from AL10 in stead of L00.
I have not found any free solution, the best I could find is DC Phoenix whose program claims that it "Can write firmware by fastboot with locked bootloader and locked FRP!" The thing is, it will cost 15 Euros to use this function in their program, and after paying etc. it is only available for 72 hours. At this moment I don't have access to a computer for the next 72 hours, so I have decided to wait a short while until I have a computer available for a 72-hour period. While I guess it would only take a short time, I realise now that nothing is ever as easy as it seems with Huawei and their absolute **** software... hence I want to wait for being able to use all 72 hours before paying.
This link has their guide to what needs to be done:
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/DC-Phoenix-flash-repair-tutorial
If you want to give it a try, it's the one possible solution I've found after MUCH googling. Though I remain hopeful that someone else on this forum might have a better (free) solution!
Hello Sanktgoran,
at first thank you very much for your help.
I have a question about the DC Unlocker. When i use this and write a new firmware by DC Unlocker, then i don't have to rebrand again?
Which rom do i should use to write on my phone?
Should i use the STF-AL00 rom or STF-L09 rom or it doens't matter?
Multitool says that i have STF-L09 on my phone, but my phone have no OS, because it doesn't boot.
Thanks
I'm not sure actually which one to use. I think you should go with the L09, since that is what the phone "thinks" it is at the moment. If it works to instll the L09 Firmware via DC unlocker, I think that would be the rebranding done as well. The way I understand this situation we are both in, our phones are rebranded to L09, just the actual L09 OS isn't really installed properly, and the FRP lock prevents us from unlocking bootloader, which in turn prevents us from completing the installation of L09. So by using the DC Unlocker to bypass the locks and installing the firmware, the process should then be complete.
I'm not sure about this though, it's just how i think it is. It might be that using DC will install the firmware stably and all is well, and it might be that it will install some of it and then the phone can at least boot into an incomplete OS where we could disable the FRP and bootloader locks, and thus be able to use the Update function in the HWOTA script to get things finished. Either way, I'm 99% sure that using the DC Unlocker will get us further along the path to a european Honor 9 than we are at this stage. I'm going to attempt it later today or perhaps tomorrow I think. After all, 15 euros is a small amount to spend compared to the cost of the actual phone...
Did you also copy an OEMinfo file for L09 into your adb/fastboot folder and run this command before using the HWOTA script?
ADB push oeminfo /tmp/oeminfo
ADB shell "dd if=/tmp/oeminfo of=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo"
I did, I'm not 100% sure what it does/is supposed to do, but I think it has made it so that the phone thinks it's done and rebranded, and tries to boot into L09, but since the L09 installation wasn't completed in the HWOTA script, it can't boot because firmware stuff is missing. That has me thinking that it's the L09 and not AL00 which you should use with DC Unlocker.
Did you check https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/help/soft-bricked-honor-9-trying-to-root-t3737967 ?
Finally, it worked for me everything fine.
Here is one tip from me:
I downloaded at first the rom from a website and started to flash, but it failed.
After a long time of searching and asking, i got help.
You have to download directly from the DC Phoenix the rom (with the custominization file) and flash.
When you don't know how, just post here and i will write a short guide.
Thanks for helping. :good:
That's great, glad things worked out for you! Was it the full firmware file you downloaded from DC Phoenix, the ~4 gigabyte update.app file? Or the three .zip files, update.zip, update_data_full_public.zip and update_full_stf-L09_hw_eu? Do you download it from their website or through the DC Unlocker program? How big was the entire download? I'm on a limited monthly data kind of thing, just curious how big the download is.

I use the download function from DC Phoenix.
When you open DC Phoenix, just click "Download Files" and a website will open, where you can search for the rom.
Search for "STF-L09" and you will get all roms for the STF-L09. I prefer to use this rom:
Stanford-L09_C432B130_Firmware_Belgium_Germany_France_Netherlands_Portugal_Switzerland_Spain_Italy_Aus
And for every rom you should download the customization file. They are directly together:
Stanford-L09_C432B130_update_data_customization_hw_eu.APP
You have to download both .APP files and the both files are in total almost 3,2 GB.
You open DC Phoenix and open the files there.
The Firmware you open in "Update File"
The customization file you open in "Customization File (optional)"
You connect your phone via fastboot and then you can start to update.
I don't know from which country you are, so i don't know which version of rom do you need.
When you download the rom which i downloaded before, you have just the B130 Version. But theres is already B182 existing. You can download the new rom via your phone in the settings.
Here is also the same guide from DC Unlocker (except of the part how you can download the rom).
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/huawei-phone-flashing-in-fastboot
Somehow its possible to flash firmware in dc Phoenix and having a locked Bootloader.
Shouldnt it be possible to use config.txt and flash twrp as recovery and then flash ur full stock?
Im asking cause i m not able to unlock the bootloader. The V+ Button is broke ( Mainboard related) and i cant agree to unlock after entering my code.
So my problem is that I bought this phone from China, and the software that was put in it is the version (STF-L09C432B120) and it doesn't find updates. Do you know if I can put another version which will download the 8.0 update ? I am really worried that I might brick it.
Thanks in advance
I'm new here btw
Edit : does anyone here know how to unlock the boot loader ? Because I assume that I'll need to do that if I can install another ROM. (Yes. I am now aware that Huawei and Honor do not support it anymore.)

Try updating with Firmware Finder which you can find in google store. If it won't work, connect your phone to pc and try updating with HiSuite app
To unlock bootloader try this but i dont know if its going to work on chinese software.
1. go to https://emui.huawei.com/ and log in with your HUAWEI ID
2. go to UNLOCK page and get your unlock key.
3. In settings of your phone search for HDB and enable that option.
4. go to settings > system > about phone and click few times on compilation number to enable programmer settings.
5. go back to settings > system > programmer settings and enable USB debugging and unlock OEM
6. download HiSuite, connect your phone and make Backup of everything that you need (unlocking bootloader wipes everything on your internal storage)
7. If you cant connect your device, try to do this https://ph.answers.acer.com/app/answ...er-enforcement
8. download this zip and extract on your desktop. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1A0...qqUYv-NnXWi5vD
9. inside the folder hold SHIFT and press right click and click open power shell here.
10. type .\adb devices
11. type .\adb reboot bootloader
12. type .\fastboot oem unlock [your unlock key]
13. Press volume + on your phone to select YES and than power button to confirm.
14. Now your bootloader is unlocked and your phone will do the factory reset.
Update straight to C432B183 fullOTA-MF with androidapp 'Firmware Finder'.
Doing that, you won't mess your capacitives buttons and should be able to get normal oreo ota then.
It's told Firmware Finder doesn't work anymore since ~3months ; You'll have at least to try.
If not working, there is a C432B130 service repair firmware available for nougat. It flash in firmware mode (dload) and it need an usb-otg or microSD exfat formated.
---------- Post added at 21:21 ---------- Previous post was at 21:19 ----------
& Once on C432B130 you'll get the ota normally.
Still. I don't have a boot unlocker. And are you sure it won't brick it ?
Sure.
What do you mean by sure ?
Sure, i'm sure it won't brick.
So, I work somewhere in which phones need to be switched off for security reasons. Every time I leave, I switch mine back on. I noticed in the past few weeks that my Mate 10 would restart itself a few times after I turn it on after work. After a while, it sorts itself out and stops rebooting, with everything returning to normal. A few days ago, it didn't start up properly and took me to Huawei eRecovery. I'd never seen that before. I tried rebooting, but it would keep coming back to eRecovery. I also did a factory reset and cleared the cache and it looked like it was fixed because I saw a white EMUI screen asking me to set the language and all that stuff. However, the screen would soon become unresponsive and the Mate 10 reboot would itself and go back to eRecovery. I tried this a few more times until I thought I got lucky and managed to finish the whole setup process where I see the phone's home screen with the apps. However, when I tried to add my gmail account, the phone once again reset itself back into eRecovery. So I decided to choose the 'Download the latest version and recovery' option. I left that for a while and when I came back I saw that the phone was still in eRecovery. I rebooted a few times and even tried downloading the latest version again, but now it says, 'Getting package info failed'.
The phone was purchased in China. It says on the back, 'ALP-AL00'. I never attempted to rebrand, root or anything like that. All I've ever done is change the system and input language in settings, download the Google Play Store from App Gallery and updated to EMUI 9. I'm really at a loss as to what to do now. There aren't any service centres in my city or state. It's also kind of concerning that other people have posted similar issues and with no responses so far.

I continue searching the solution.
I have 1,5 yers with the same problem.
No I have solution yet.
Tryed Install manny Firmwares with SD card, Format under eRecovery and HiSute.
I already opened it and change the thermal paste.
Tested internal components...
Unfortunely my Huawei Mate 10 is a ALP-AL00 with a special hardware version (6Gb RAM + 128GB ROM), the International version have only 4Gb RAM.
If the Huawei return bootloader unlock i can try instal a custom rom, but without this code my best smartphone was turned into a paperweights.
I have no idea how to unlock his bootloader (The phone have Android 9.0)
I continue searching the solution.

Use testpoint (device back needs to be opened again), flash bootloader using DC Phoenix. Then flash board firmware. In board firmware you can use HCU to get an unlock code. You will need to repair device info using HCU after flashing board, as it will wipe it by default.
Here's a guide for fixing device when on board:
1)Flash oeminfo (own backup) from fastboot, or dump oeminfo using dd in adb shell and flash that one back using fastboot.
2)Backup modemnvm_system, modemnvm_factory and modemnvm_backup using adb pull from a command prompt (/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemnvm_system and so on)
3)Flash backed up modemnvm_system, modemnvm_factory and modemnvm_backup from fastboot
3)Modify and brand with HCU (check everything but those that erase/flash empty board) (remember to fill vendor and cust)
4)Direct Unlock Network with HCU (device will find no network if not done)
5)Read Bootloader code if you ever used HCU to get code before
6)Download and flash Oreo service firmware from androidhost.ru using a OTG cable and a memory stick to flash it
After this your device should work fine and you will have an unlock code.
Please note that HCU doesn't work on firmware after May 2018, so don't replace Oeminfo after this as that will remove the unlock code generated by HCU.

It turns out that my phone was defective. A very good friend of mine happened to be making a trip to Shenzhen anyway, so they offered to take the phone with them to sort it all out. It was taken back to the manufacturer. The motherboard was defective. Since it was within warranty, I got a free replacement.
I got a Huawei P20 Lite - ANE-LX1 for European market. I don't know any other details, except what is written on the box(if it matters). When its in eRecover and i try to update it shows "can't get update info(or something like that)", it doesn't have factory reset button available, it doesn't have wipe button available. When I put it in fastboot, it shows Phone "Locked" and "FRP Lock".
Wtf do I do with this brick?
Thank you in advance!
(Be aware guys! I was scammed with it on the internet - full box, like new, and it doesn't even get into android)
