Is it possible to switch ANE-LX2 from C636 to C432? - Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers

I have an ANE-LX2 build number C636E4R1P5 (I live in Europe), latest security patch installed is from July 2020 and the OTA updater can't find any new update. It seems like on European firmware C432 the updates are released regularly. Is it possible to switch to this region and keep receiving updates?
I've read may threads but don't know where to start. Thanks in advance

You have to unlock the bootloader first , for free or using paid service ,
info .
If you choose paid service , you have to download to EMUI 8 via HiSuite. If the rollback option is not available with your HiSuite ("switch to the older version" or "Earlier version"), you must downgrade to the lower EMUI 9.1 build number doing the dload method flashing Service ROM.
I can't give you a link because of forum rules, but you can google it, search for 'ANE-LX2 9.1.0.209(C636E4R1P5T8) FULL STOCK' (password: ministryofsolutions.com ).
Note: This process will erase your phone!
Then try again downgrade with HiSuite.
After successfully downgrading to Oreo you need downgrade to 8.0.140 , download here .
Running 8.0.140 you should be able to use HCU-Clent etc., get code and unlock your bootloader.
Only then will the difficult part of debranding come .
The question is whether it is worth doing...

Thank you, HiSuite allows me to downgrade to 8.0.0.192.
After downgrading to 8.0.0.140 as well and unlocking the bootloader, is the debranding part particularly difficult?

Read the instructions carefully and completely, check unfamiliar terminology by google or xda.
Here you go

Ok, just one doubt: the files in the procedure are for ANE-LX1 while mine is ANE-LX2, does it make any difference?

Of course.

Are all those 4 files (oeminfo, TWRP, stock recovery, service ROM) model-dependent? If yes, do you know where I can find the files for ANE-LX2?
Thank you

I thought you wanted to do a rebrand to ANE-LX1 C432 ...
P.S.: You might be better off staying on the C636

Sorry about the confusion, I thought there was a specific C432 for ANE-LX2... I'm still new to this.
Does this mean my ANE-LX2 would "become" an ANE-LX1 C432?

Ok here's what I've done so far:
downgraded to 8.0.0.192 from HiSuite
downgraded to 8.0.0.140 following this
unlocked bootloader using HCU client (attached photo of phone in fastboot mode).
So now all I need to do is follow these steps?
Just double-checking before I do any damage to the phone

Yes, or these steps: Chapter 2.
"Chapter 2." is maybe simpler...
(I recommend reading the whole post!).
First flash oeminfo in TWRP, then continue with Chapter 2. !

These steps seem quite clear:
- In fastboot install TWRP, run
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk TWRP-oreo-smart.img
fastboot reboot .
- Boot into TWRP and flash it over eRecovery :
-- select storage - SD Card, select "Install image", find TWRP file and mark eRecovery, swipe. Go back, find RECOVERY_RAMDISK-ANE-OREO file , mark Recovery, swipe. Reboot system, when yellow warning appears press and hold Volume Up.
- In TWRP select Install image and flash oeminfo.img file (mark oeminfo, swipe). Go back to main TWRP's menu, select Reboot > Power Off.
- Flash Service ROM using three buttons combo.
THE PROCESS WILL LOCK THE BOOTLOADER AGAIN!
Only thing is, what do you mean by "Flash Service ROM using three buttons combo."?
----
Edit: I guess it's standard dload method?

Also, should I add the ".img" at the end of the oeminfo file?

Followed all the steps, bootloop after trying to install service rom

Is there a way to just take it back to the original state?

Either restoring the original or fixing the C432, either one is fine.. I'm still able to access TWRP, I don't know if that's useful

Thanks, I will try this later and let you know how it goes!
If you only want to relocked your bootloader just use the HWOTA8_Mate 10 tool from the link bellow.
download the tool > go to lock directory > use relock.bat
you'll need to provide your bootloader unlock code to re-locked it.

I think you are not having proper mate 10 pro windows drivers. Try following the HWOTA_mate10 guide about preparation, there is a registry fix and you should uninstall HiCare for proper device recognition

Hi, i just started thinking about that, just to be sure since i did not get mtp folder in my computer anymore(win 10)
i switched to my laptop win 8.1,
installed the adb driver manually as adb composite interface in normal mtp\debug phone on.
in fastboot the driver said adb sooner single interface
and then when i am supposed to switch inn to the stock recovery modded with adb support,
i get 3 devies with yellow ! in device manager:
1. huawei- device properties and details then choose bus reported device description: huawei
2. unknown device: - device properties and details then choose bus reported device description: adb interface
3. unknown device: - device properties and details then choose bus reported device description: hdb interface
what should i set these to manually?
i am trying to use "flash update" in HWOTA_mate10 guide and i am on step D run ota.
supposed to switch from fastboot to recovery then the script waits for adb connection

Bootloader Unlock not possible - but eRecovery working
@ante0
I have Mate 10 BLA-L09c432 and installed latest Firmware 8.0.0.157 since two days. I updated with official OTA.
Before I had 8.0.0.137 → on that Firmware I read the Bootloader Unlock Code with DC Unlocker → and I got a new Unlock Code.
The originial Unlock Code did not work anymore (Phone was from a friend of mine and bricked and I restored it by FunkyHuawei - and bought it).
I unlocked the Bootloader with the new Code (read by DC) and it worked.
Two days ago I decided to update with OTA. I reflashed the original recovery_ramdisk and ramdisk.img. Update was succesful.
→ I tried to relock the Bootloader (because I am thinking about to sell the phone) → and it does not work! Not with the originial Code, not with the new Code (read on b137)
I did nothing wrong, because this year I unlocked about 40 devices (because I am helping to repair bricked phones from Users of Android Hilfe de) and I know very well how to do. (OEM Unlock enabled, ADB Debugging and USB Debugging enabled, HiSuite HDB disabled, HiSuite on PC closed, ADB and Fastboot working....)
Code:
fastboot oem relock UNLOCKCODE
does not work
But I have no idea yet how to relock the Loader I will try once more - but perhaps you or someone has an idea?
So perhaps I should just be happy to have a unlocked Phone and keep it instead of selling it....
Everything else is working.
And I found out some interesting point → seems Huawei started to bring the Feature of eRecovery even to European Versions of his Phones (from a certain firmware version)
I booted to Huawei eRecovery and "Download latest version and Recovery" is running without FunkyHuawei

Use the DLOAD method with the B150 firmware from androidhost.ru, that should lock (not relock) it.

Huawei Mate 10 Pro Downgrade from 8.0.0.156 to 8.0.0.149 or lower

Can Anybody help me ?
I have a rooted and unlocked Mate 10 Pro.
But with the new Update , i can't downgrade Play Service.... I need this for a Game.
Now i need to downgrade to a lower version.
Thanks for help.
P.s.: I search in the Forum , but the most is search for downgrade from EMUI 8 to 7 or 9 to 8.
The lowest version you can downgrade to is B146 (Assuming you are on BLA-L29C432B156), using firmware from androidhost.ru.
OR flash images manually through TWRP, this way you could downgrade to first build if you wanted to xD
Just don't flash XLOADER.img as you are on new xloader. Flashing one from B145 or earlier will brick your phone.

For flash with TWRP you must need "BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED" and you know very wel that's service is Down from time.
So you guide NOT help for nothing.

Sinche i've all professional tool for Extract and Flash also each single partition in Upgrade mode w/o unlocked bootloader, have one BLA-L09 C432 in B158.
If i flash the B143 C432 w/o Xloader partition, phone will not boot or boot having same B156 version?
My customer mistaked this device flashing Ram Disk, (Loader) + OEMINFO by TESTPOINT and have lost IMEI. So, i was searching a way for Downgrade and do Imei Repair, but there writed in all side that's impossible Downgrade from B156 or earlier...you have solution?

Easiest way, in my opinion, would be to just flash board firmware. Since he already has testpoint available?
Then you can repair imeis and that while on board using HCU. You can not get back original oeminfo though unless he has a backup of it.
But imeis that phone uses will be repaired, and you can still unlock using HCU's get unlock code button. Original code, if he got it through Huawei, will not be usable though.
Here's a guide for using HCU and steps to take, any deviation from these steps will result in no imei or no network.
1)Flash oeminfo (own backup) from 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)Unlock sim with HCU
5)Read Bootloader code if you ever used HCU to get code before
6)Download and flash service firmware from androidhost.ru using a OTG cable and a memory stick
For step 1 you should be able to just backup and flash the existing oeminfo in phone as it's already using someone elses (DC's oeminfo flash will just download an oeminfo from their server and flash it, so you get someone elses oeminfo).

Huawei Relock Bootloader

I have ALP-L29 (c185) Running emui 9.1.0.32 and unlocked bootloder. Is there any way to relock bootloader. I have tried DC unlocker (says chipset is not competible), Multi-tool, and fastboot command but none of them worked. Also tried to restore an factory reset with Erecovery but still unlocked. I am planning to sell my phone but probably buyer won't want root or unlocked bootloder

However, there seem to be no free one for ALP C185 9.1 :/

Service firmware. And yes, it's special. Firmware from Huaweis own server (hicloud) is Online only, and can't be used to lock bl.
Service firmware is Offline, so you can flash it using an OTG cable and a memory stick.
Or, since you're rooted, you can place it directly in /data/update/dload/ and skip the OTG cable part.
You'd then reboot and hold VOL UP + VOL DOWN (OTG plugged in to phone if not /data/update/dload is used) and phone will start in force update mode and start update.

Yes, as long as you don't modify oeminfo too much. But update will not change unlock code.
Oh yeah, I noticed the dload came without instructions. If you use otg and memory card you just copy the 'dload' folder (after extracting from zip) and paste on a memory stick. Then plug in otg cable in phone and reboot while holding vol up + down. If you use /data/update/ you'd have to transfer files using adb push to /sdcard/ and from a command prompt:
adb push update_sd.zip /sdcard/
adb push update_sd_ALP-L29_hw_meafnaf.zip /sdcard/
adb shell
su
mkdir -p /data/update/dload/ALP-L29_hw_meafnaf/
mv /sdcard/update_sd.zip /data/update/dload/
mv /sdcard/update_sd_ALP-L29_hw_meafnaf.zip /data/update/dload/ALP-L29_hw_meafnaf/
meafnaf zip might be named differently, I turned off computer so can't check.
After this, still in adb shell:
echo --factory_sd_update > /cache/recovery/command
reboot
Phone will reboot to update mode and flash firmware.
After this you should be locked
Thanks again

Try restore it from eRecovery ,, or there's rom in androidhost site but you need @ante0 for confirming if this service firmware or not you can download it then extract it and see if there's dload service or not .

If it contains a dload folder it should work.
So if im having the current fw 9.1.0.321(C636E5R1P13), what should the service firmware be?

Erecovery will not lock bootloader.
Generally you'd want a service firmware for the current build you're on, but that's now always possible. Any 9.1 C636 should work though.

The "fastboot oem lock" command does not exist, it is certainly not a normal way
The best method to lock bootloader 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 (warranty will not void any more).)
Hi thanks a lot for your reply, Unfortunately I cannot find such rom on the site for the life of me.

it is ane-lgprs-ovs 9.1.0.13 it does not show me the c variant.
I see your replying to my other thread aswell, no point having 2 so I will carry on here.
I have downloaded a rom called Huawei P20 Lite ANE-LX1 ANE-L01 hw eu HLRCF Anne-L01 8.0.0.167(C432) Firmware 8.0.0 r1 EMUI8.0 05015ACF [androidhost.ru] so I am going to try this with HuRUUpdater 0.4

It can be found in System - About phone . It's very important.
all it gives me in build number is ANE-LGRPS-OVS 9.1.0.132
there really is no brackets or c variant

Strange, maybe you tried to install some firmware manually before, hm?
Connect your phone in fastboot mode to PC , open 'Minimal ADB and fastboot' and use command
fastboot oem get-build-number
Unfortunately not even HuRUUpdater 0.4 is working with this particular rom it reports unknown error so I am at a complete loss really

it should now be clear that you have installed the wrong version of firmware, IMO...
I can't you help anymore, sorry.

Magisk (Root) install with Unlocked Bootloader

Credit to @user_ScoTTT for providing the files and instructions.
So @user_ScoTTT has unlocked his bootloader for his Chinese version via official methods and was kind enough to share with us the files and instructions.
The instructions he provided are as below as are the files if anyone wishes to play around.
Disclaimer: I have not tested this.
1. Download and Unpack the latest ozip full update package of the Chinese version of oppo find x2 pro by dragging the Ozip onto the ozip2zip.exe. (You can use the boot.img file i have provided if you prefer)
2. extract the boot.img from it (be sure to back it up), (after unlocking the bootloader) you only need to transfer the boot.img file to your phone.
3. Install magisk manager on the phone, click "install", click "fix a file", select the boot.img you extracted from the ozip image.
4. Turn off the phone, press and hold the volume-& power button to restart to bootloader, connect to the data Connect to the PC, use
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
5. flash vbmeta.img with "fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" to disable Verified Boot otherwise you will face the problem of not being able to boot.
6. "fastboot reboot" (reboot)
After that, your phone will reboot and enter the system, open magisk manager, it will show that magisk has been successfully installed. (Before this, you will be prompted that you need to repair it, click OK, and it will automatically restart once)
Enjoy Root!

Hope this helps kick off some more development on these great devices.
Thanks all.

Can I flash global rom after I unlockbootloader ? And what if I can flash, do I need to keep bootloader unlocked ? Because maybe OTA will be affected if I doesn't lock the bootloader again, but is it the same method as pixel phones ? Fastboot oem lock ' will work like this ? I forget also to ask do I need to be registered in depth testing program so that I can unlockbootloader ?
when I adb reboot bootloader the phone just reboots into the OS, have i done something wrong?

Yes, the method is the same as the pixel phone. At present, the depth testing is not open to the international version of ROM.

So does this apply to the models bought in the UK? Don't tell me this is another Huawei situation all over again? They're notorious for not allowing bootloader unlocking!

"So does this apply to the models bought in the UK? Don't tell me this is another Huawei situation all over again? They're notorious for not allowing bootloader unlocking!"
Yep! EE Model here, the App says "Customised Carrier Device" so it wont let me Unlock, so yes. UK for the most part / carrier phones are not allowed..

Oppo has Released an App (works very well in China) and allows you to setup "in Depth Testing". Check the "Root Guide" Threat out in relation to this phone...
Hope this helps.
Hello,
My find X2 pro and unlocked but I can't rotate it, it doesn't start, there is a red triangular at startup indicating a problem with the recovery.
I think the vbmeta.img file doesn't want to install.
Anyone have an idea? thank you.
