[TOOL] HuaweiUpdater - Update to EMUI 9 without changing DNS - Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D

Copying from my previous post:
I made a tool to "force update" my phone (Honor View 10, European/C432 model), and I thought I'd share it in case anybody wants to give it a try.
Notes
It is Windows-only (Specifically Windows 10 (64-bit), build 1809, although it probably works fine for most/all other versions of Windows)
It requires .NET Framework to be installed on your computer. It can be downloaded from here
It might cause some anti-virus programs to flag it due to the nature of the tool (although nothing on VirusTotal detects it as malware)
Currently, a lot of stuff is hard-coded (source code available below), including the path to HiSuite.exe. If the path to your HiSuite installation isn't "C:\Program Files (x86)\HiSuite\HiSuite.exe" (or "C:\Program Files\HiSuite\HiSuite.exe" in the case of 32-bit Windows), the tool won't work
It's currently only supposed to work with the BKL-L09 (C432) model. Do not use this tool if you do not have the BKL-L09 (C432) model
If you are on 32-bit Windows (your HiSuite installation path is "C:\Program Files\HiSuite" instead of "C:\Program Files (x86)\HiSuite"), download the HuaweiUpdaterWin32.7z file. Otherwise, download the regular HuaweiUpdater.7z file
And, of course, please use the tool at your own risk. I'm not responsible if the update somehow ends up breaking your phone.
Usage
Connect your phone to your computer through USB
Before proceeding, make sure HiSuite isn't running. Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del -> Task Manager or Ctrl+Shift+Escape) and make sure "Huawei PC Suite" (hisuite.exe) isn't running. If it's running, right-click and select "End Task" to kill the process
Run "Launcher.exe" and HiSuite should open
Click on the "Update" button. There should be a red dot on it
Wait for HiSuite to finish installing the update on your phone
Source code can be found here: https://github.com/Smaehtin/HuaweiUpdater

Here's a version that should work for the Indian (C675) variant.

Strange, maybe it works with TinyUpload:
HuaweiUpdater(C675).7z
HuaweiUpdater(C675)Win32.7z

It worked! I updated to Android 9.0 with EMUI 9. Thanks, mate!

Does it revert your phone to factory setting?

The procedure worked like a charm! I'm on Pie now
All apps and settings stayed untouched, no factory reset.

Works great for the Indian variant:good:

You sir are amazing..tyvm

Thanks for the method mate.

I will try this today. Btw, can you just elaborate what is your approach for this solution? I mean the other Firmware finder solution masks your DNS and then updates the firmware and ROM. 2hat does your solution do? I am not a developer but just wanted to know how does it actually work. If it's too technical or difficult to explain, let it be. Just being curious. Thanks and happy new year dude

Will try tonight and feedback

The way the FunkyHuawei and Firmware Finder method works is by you configuring your network to use their DNS server. A DNS server is what is used on the internet for "resolving" a domain name (like google.com, .xda-developers.com, hicloud.com, etc.) into an IP address. So, when a "client" (either your computer when using HiSuite to check for updates or your phone) asks for the IP address of query.hicloud.com (used for update checking), instead of giving you the IP address of Huawei's update server like a normal DNS server would, it gives you the IP address of FunkyHuawei/Firmware Finder's update server.
So now, whenever you do an update check, you're not talking with Huawei's update server but a "fake" server, but your phone/computer isn't aware of this (well ...), and when your phone/computer asks this server if updates are available and if your phone is allowed to install the update, the server will just say "Yeah, here's the update, go ahead and install it".
My method is similar in some ways. What it does is "hooking" the HiSuite process. This allows my tool to intercept and alter communication between HiSuite and Huawei's update server, and by spoofing some requests/responses, it acts somewhat in the same way a "fake" server would. So, when HiSuite asks the update server if there are any updates available for your phone, the update server will say "Nope, no new updates at the moment" - but my tool will intercept that and overwrite the response with a "Yep, here's the update" instead.
Hopefully that explains things

Not to shabby

Thanks for this great explaination. I think i understood now. Why don't you include this in your initial posts? Its a nice learning for noobs like me. Just a suggestion. I feel there is very little *educating* material for Honor devices like the one you told about, or about rooting, or downgrading etc., at least for view 10. Unlike OnePlus devices. So I feel this might educate people who are just enthusiast, non technical and want to know few things.
Btw, the tool didn't work for my Indian model. Guess, because I am on EMUI 9.0 beta already. But thanks for the information

Same for me, any solution for that please reply if any.

No luck. Tried 2-3 times, even made the changes to FF DNS so that firmware is approved but nothing on hisuite.
May be I am on EMUI 9.0 beta thats the reason its not showing anything but will eork for EMUI 8 users.

works great mate! thanks for your work and sharing!

Unregistered device

Yesterday kies says I had an update available. But after updating kies now it says unregistered device. Anyone know why this is? Its not life or death I just wanted to take it for a test run..
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Assuming kies connects, it displays one of three things (I might have the words wrong, but the idea is correct - I think):
1. Upgrade available (sort of self explanatory)
2. Some sort of server busy error (again sort of self explanatory)
3. Unregistered device. This is a typical unix/linux (read cryptic) error code meaning your device is not in the registration database as needing to be updated based on the software currently on your phone. It may seem strange that a Windows PC software program is responding like this, but it's highly likely that the software server is a linux based box as is Android, so...
I base this on a report from a Samsung tech response to unregistered device errors - but I'm filling in a few blanks to hopefully make a bit more sense.

[Guide] Unlocked HTC Windows Phones Get NoDo Right Away

"Chris Walsh, member of the ChevronWP7 team has posted a workaround on its blog letting carrier-branded HTC users emulate a non-branded Windows Phone 7 in order to apply the update immediately. The procedure "un-brands" the HTC device and tricks the system into believing it is carrier independent and good to go for the update. Please note that the hack is for HTC devices only and is an advanced technique. Check out the source link if you want to apply' be warned though, you're doing it at your own risk!"
Source: Pocketnow Story Article
Chris Walsh Blog Here: "My Coding Adventure":

Chris Wash said:
Howdy!
So NoDo was finally released this morning. Well, for the EU people anyway (don’t get me started).
Windows Phone 7, by default, stores your operator identifier in a sneaky registry key, which is checked by the Windows Update Client running on the phone. This identifier is then used to check if the updates have been approved for your operator. If they are slow, like Telstra here is in Australia, you’re going to be waiting a long time.
So, let’s tell you how you can “un-brand” (this won’t remove the boot splash screen) your phone so it appears to be a generic handset to the Update Servers.
Your device needs to be dev-unlocked for this to work. Sorry folks.
Download this zip file and deploy the 3 xap files onto your device.
Run the ChevronWP7.Ringtones.xap and wait till it displays “Ringtones added… and CustClear.provxml underneath”
Run the TouchXplorer app, navigate to My DocumentsMy Ringtones click on CustClear.provxml and select Copy from the Application Bar.
Navigate back inside TouchXplorer to the Windows folder.
Select paste from the Application Bar, this should scroll right to the bottom and put a copy of CustClear.provxml in the Windows folder.
Now run the Connection Setup application and click on the Ok button (it’s the one with the tick).
And now you’re done and free to re-connect to Zune and check for updates.
Again, this is ONLY for HTC devices.

I didn't get the NoDo and my device is "up to date"T-T
That seems to be updating people from 7004 to 7008 who previously couldn't get the 7008 update. Only a very few people seem to have had success moving from the 7389(RC) to 7390. Even those using unbranded handsets aren't seeing the updates.
MS are world class experts at pissing off there customers

What I posted was to remove the operator part of the updates, MSFT still region block updates. Which is why some are having success with German VPN providers.
OK Guys ... finally managed to get my Mozart updated to NoDo.
Used the intructions from here (lots of unsuccessful reports for Mozart apparently)
http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/force-wp7-nodo-update-for-some-unlocked-phones
Lots of users also reporting success over on the Omnia forums with some more giving some handy tips
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011663
I only used the first link & followed it precisely.
Also before making the first VPN connection I flushed the DNS cache on my laptop to remove stale entries (from command line type "ipconfig /flushdns")
Also when Zune presents the update and you get to "Step 2", you need to disconnect the VPN connection and browse to google on a browser otherwise it just sits at 0% and fails (because it has the VPN gateway metric sitting in your PC's route table with a lower value than your proper default gateway).
1st Attempt failed.
2nd Attempt found the update and failed because Zune stopped responding and crashed (because I disconnected VPN too early ... before "Step 2" on Zune)
3rd attempt Success and kept ALL my settings
For the sake of making it quicker (whole process took 45 mins for me) remove all media (mp3 & Videos etc) from your phone or your backup stage (on Zune) will take that much longer.
Success
I did my phone today using Walshies blog instructions for debranding and then for getting NoDo. Worked like a dream.
Pro = I has NoDo
Cons = No more sideloading apps. Every side loaded app I had requests deletion when run now.
Overall I'm a happy little vegemite.
Thanks Walshieau, great stuff, from you and the Chevron team.

Dude don't scare me. I have done exactly according the instructions and everything worked perfectly.
My Mozart got an February update first, and after updating to 7008, it is now preparing to update to NoDo.
Most of my apps are sideloaded, it would be hell if I had to install em all again.
Hello there!
Any news on a generic ROM for UK. I currently have a branded Orange UK ROM and I've read the European ROM changes the keyboard??? What exactly does it do to the keyboard?

[XAP] [BIG Update] Youtube 3.2 P3.2 now with 100% more HD

**Update 02/11/2015**
Google made some changes on the back end, so the url I was using "http://m.youtube.com/watch?ajax=1&tsp=1&v={0}&dummy={1}"; now returns a "redirect" message instead of the expected data. I can get it to work, but it will be ugly as I need to now manually parse the info out of the mobile html page.
I am leaving this up as it appears to be still working in other countries.
********
All,
Here is the official patched Youtube app! Hopefully this will tide everyone over until Google and Microsoft stop fighting!
Special thanks to @AlvinPhilemon for providing the unencrypted xap!
Special thanks to @Topogigi for spurring me on this afternoon.
I am uploading two versions:
1. Youtube_Interop.xap for interop-unlocked devices that can use ID_CAP_MEDIALIB_PHOTO_FULL
2. Youtube_NoInterop.xap for developer unlocked devices.
If you are having trouble using the "Application Deployment" tool located in the Windows Phone 8 SDK(keep getting an error that says "Error - Deployment optimization failed due to an invalid assembly. Rebuild your source projects and try again."), use the deployment tool that comes with WP8 PowerTools. http://wptools.codeplex.com/
Enjoy and post your results!
Don't forget to say "Thanks!"
**EDIT**
I have updated the versions in this post to include a properly compiled version of "YouTube.TaskAgent.dll" This should take care of any AV warnings with the original version.
This dll controls the live tiles! let me know if they still work.
**EDIT 2* I accidentally uploaded the wrong version of the Youtube_Interop_P2.xap earlier. It has the wrong "YouTube.ViewModel.dll" in it.
***P3 UPDATE***
All, I give you the P3 Update! It includes the following Fixes & Enhancements:
1. Vevo/Encrypted videos should be working for now. (Hopefully Youtube won't update their API for a while lol)
2. I removed that pesky "the content owner did not make this available for mobile" message. (It looked implemented wrong anyways)
3. This version comes with 100% less ads (Felt like "sticking it to the man" lol)
4. COMMENTS now work 100%
***P3.1 UPDATE***
1. "High Quality" mode working again! Fixed all videos default to pulling from m.youtube.com regardless of encryption status.
***P3.2 UPDATE***
1. "High Quality" mode working for ALL VIDEOS INCLUDING ENCRYPTED!!!
Things that still need work:
1. Video Upload is broken still. I will take a look at it as I have time...I am guessing it is a parsing issue. The Interop-Unlocked version may "just work" on an ATIV S for uploads. I need someone to test.
2. I would like to update the signature decryption methods to make it ia bit more "future-proof". IF anyone knows a good way to parse the html5 player, I may give that a shot.
As always, Enjoy and thanks for all the feedback and support!

you can do it for windows phone 7.8?
@Shahar28 @znial It is being flagged as "malware" because I hex-edited a new developer key into the "YouTube.TaskAgent.dll" file. If you want to unzip it, and make your AV check all the files individually, that is the one it will complain about. This was more efficient instead of de-compiling and re-compiling because only one thing needed to be changed. As a byproduct of this, none of the checksums built into the dll match anymore.
@onlinespending what tool are you using to deploy this? I used the built-in "Application Deployment" tool built into the WP8 SDK. I am guessing it is complaining due to what I said above.
@josaya Windows Phone 8 only. Plus you lucky WP7.8 users have plenty of nice youtube clients written by OEMs and other developers, like HTC

Yeah, I'm using the built in Application Deployment as part of the WP8 SDK. I was able to sideload a decrypted swapchat.xap I found, so I can certainly side load other xaps. Is there anyway to decompile and recompile the DLL as you suggested? Would love to get this working.

I just uploaded a new version with the dll properly compiled, instead of hex-edited. Make sure you are installing the "NoInterop" version. Let me know if it works!

What OS are you on? is it Windows 8.1? I am running windows 7 and deployed it with no problems. maybe it is a VisualStudio update to the deployment tool that is borking things. See if you can deploy it via the Windows Phone Power Tools http://wptools.codeplex.com/
The 2nd version doesn't work on my Ativ: it gives the same error given when G. blocked it.
I re-deployed the 1st. :good:
Edit: the NoInterop_P2 runs properly.
@Topogigi @djadry When I packaged P2 of the InteropUnlock version, I accidentally used the wrong "Youtube.ViewModel.dll". I just updated the OP with the correct version. You should be good to go now

New Funky Procedure by ME... no support/warranty!

Guys,
i struggled with firmware finder route and failed miserably every time. I then looked at the HiSuite route and this was also a bit odd so, i examined what Funky do with replacing DNS entries and created the simple procedure below which has now worked THREE times, first time each try without fail:
1. Pay for/select the ROM you want on the Funky website
2. Install HiSuite
3. In your PC's network settings, change DNS to Primary 37.114.61.203 & Secondary 1.2.3.4
4. Be safe and start a CMD box, run "Ipconfig /release" and then "ipconfig /renew" finally probably unneeded but "ipconfig /flushdns"
5. **Restart browser** (important as it may have cached IP addresses)
6. Check with http://funkyhuaweidnscheck.com (if this loads, you're good to go! If not, check you've changed the correct network adapter and correct DNS IP addresses)
7. Connect phone via USB, install drivers, Run HiSuite and it will tell you there is a new version..... update!
I hope this helps but, please remember that I offer NO WARRANTY and you attempt this at your OWN RISK.
Good luck
*Currently running a C636 with B225.
*There should be no dependency on which version of Windows you use for the procedure, other than what is required by the HiSuite app itself. TCP/IP has been built in to Windows since Windows 95 iirc.
Nice. I'll try this next time
Alternately - if you have a laptop with Wifi and Windows 10 - it is possible to turn it into a Wifi hotspot where you can modify the DNS to match Funkys.
https://www.howtogeek.com/214080/how-to-turn-your-windows-pc-into-a-wi-fi-hotspot/
I did the above and just amended the DNS. Then connected to this Wifi point in ERecovery. Supported method by FunkyHuawei!

Can confirm this works
HOWEVER. It doesn't appear to work on the LATEST version of HiSuite. I downloaded version from Huawei and it immediately asked to be updated. When I did that HiSuite constantly complained it couldn't connect to the internet to see update after changing the DNS settings. Uninstalled and installed version from Huawei again but didn't allow it to update. Then it worked straight away.
Now running B229 on C636
Just simple question. Why I need to pay for update my mobile? I am on c636b182 and I can't update my mobile. Huawei let me know why?

C636 is the Asian model. Are you in Asia? It looks like, if you're not, it won't update unless you're in that region. Someone did suggest putting a Hong Kong or Singapore SIM in it and it should update.

how to detect spy software like flexispy, mspy, phonesheriff, ikeymonitor, ... ?

I don't want to factory reset my phone nor do I want to reflash lineage os.
I just want to detect if there is some spy software on my phone. Software like flexispy, mspy, phonesheriff, ikeymonitor, thetruthspy, ....
I found one app that claim to find them but I doubt its effectivness (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antispycell.free&hl=fr)
One blog from some years ago claims that the anti-virus made a poor job to detect such softwares. (I can't find that page again)
Some site suggested to use an access point to sniff traffic. That's what I did with my raspberry pi but I got only a bunch of encrypted traffic from my phone (https). So it was not helpfull beside getting a list of IP or at best domain name. You can tell much with that. The next step would be to MITM with ssldump or sslsplit but that's more technically challenging for me
Is there other tool available ? an app ? a site of a good soul that maintain a list of file installed that such spy app and that you could find manually by using an (root) explorer of /system or /data ?
Thanks
