[SOLVED] Anyone has the stock rom for Huawei P8 lite? Enable dual sim P8lite. - Huawei P8 Questions & Answers

Hello, i need the stock rom for Huawei P8 lite because in my country the carrier sells the phone with the second sim disabled from rom software.
I just need the stock rom to replace it.
Thx in advance.
//Edit:
How to enable dual sim:
1. Download ROM: https://mega.co.nz/#!rcFDzZSa!V1zxHlmSqIvhF1_FjIOsyu762s8ZURmYDRtxcQeDyI0
2. Read the instructions in the archive which you have downloaded. Pay attention!!! You must flash the second file also - that enables dual sim.
3 If u followed the instructions corectly u should have dual sim.
Many thanks to @kjartandi !!!
Official downloads if anyone needs it: consumer.huawei.com/at/mobile-phones/support/downloads/p8lite-at.htm

Here are the official downloads

@kjartandi does this rom is for dual sim version of the phone? because i need the stock rom which has the dual sim integration. my phone comes from the carrier with single sim rom software
Is your p8lite dual sim? Did you test it with nano and micro sim?
Thx in advance.

All single sim models can enable the second SIM slot by firmware update?

theoretically yes beacause all p8lite are dual sim by manufacturer

hello. i followed the same steps and the results are following:
-P8Lite Orange RO, single sim so called variant
-Flashed the ROM via tutorial, Step1 and then Step2.
- ROM has now dual card(sim) management enabled. Upon start it requieres 2 PIN's, each for every sim.
Only SIM1 has signal, sim2 has absolute no signal. When sim1 is disabled from dualcard management only then sim2 has signal. did a reset, started from scratch, same story.
is there any way to resolve this. to make it completely Dual Sim Full Active, as it should be from Huawei. The Huawei P8lite codename is ALE-L21. No other variant.
from huawei site i could not download any ROM.

I've seen the same problem reported here:
htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=1016301&page=7
The user fixed the problem flashing the spanish firmware.
I've downloaded both firmwares (MEGA and Espana). The only difference is in the "step2" folder (it doesn't exists in Spanish firmware). Step1 folder IS THE SAME.
So, in my opinion you shuld try to flash only the "Step1" folder and check if all is ok.
Let us know if this fixes your problem

Afew days ago I bought one from Vodafone in Greece which was branded and thus it supported only one sim card. I just flashed the official B046 firmware and the phone now is dual sim. Of course it is nοt Dual Sim Active as very few and expensive phones are. It's a regular Dual Sim Standby phone which disactivates reception on one while on a call on the other. Don't flash the "Spanish" firmware. I did, a week ago, and I ended up with a phone that thought that it had firmware B311 and that it was a different model. I couldn't even do a hard reset! I then downloaded the Mega firmware, flashed Step 2 first, then Step 1, then Step 2 again and then I did a hard reset. Now the phone works brilliantly.

i have flashed the spanish firmware. same story. only one sim at a time has signal. at one point both did not have signal, kinda paniked. the spanish firmare allowed me a reset and the data about phone and firmware was same B046.
I am trying now to do step2, then step1, then step2 again than a reset. hopefully it will bring something

They probably rectified the problem and they are now offering the correct firmware for downloading.

no succes.
so... i have no other idea.
i have used the Mega download with 2 steps. i have used the spanish firmware. all of them have the same build number.
everything goes smooth while "upgrading" via sdcard.
i do not know what to try. it is interesting that i have signal on sim2 only after i disable sim1. when sim2 has 4g data enabled then both sims do not have any signal

i have downloaded all available firmwares. i even downgraded to b041 from b046b. SIM1 has signal, sim2 has no signal. when one is deactivated , the other one has signal.
i did a hard reset every time after the flash. No success! can anybody with more knowledge on this investigate and help.

Your sims supports 2G? Because when you enable all the 2 SIMS, the second one goes in 2G.
For example, in my case (H3G Italy), I can't use my SIM in 2G, so if I enable the 2-SIM mode, the second sim has no signal.
I must use (as second SIM) another operator which supports 2G mode.

i used the same sims in another p8lite(dual sim from the store). it is not the sims

Dear Admin, please mark issue as Unsolved.
i have tried 5different sims. just to be sure. same issue.
i have flashed again the Firmware from Mega file. step 1(b046b) and step 2. no resolution.
i have downloaded from huawei 3 firmwares. one called open market(b046b), one marketspecific(b046b), one from malaesia(b311). flashed them all, same issue.
Phone works great, yet it is a shame i can not use it as Huawei designed it(aka dual sim full active, signal on both sims simultaneosly)
there are P8Lites , like mine, with vendor specific firmware, where the second sim is disabled. there are users who managed to free the sim2 slot without any issue yet there are users who could not do that. what exactly did the vendors do is unknow for now and we need a dev for a custom rom.
please take a look!
ps: there are users who say that the latest OTA update(b052) brings signal to sim2, but it is not confirmed by many

Only a clarification: P8 Lite IS NOT DUAL SIM FULL ACTIVE, it is Dual Sim Dual Standby: the 2 Sims works concurrently, but when you receive a call on one sim, the other goes offline.

Yes. this update truly frees te second sim. I have followed the spanish forum and flashed it then, just took me a while to confirm here too

NO WIFi
i followed the instruction with the latest update file and now both sims are active and working fine.
The problem is no wifi at all. and is not possible to turn it on even.
any ideas?

im from pakistan i dont have any issue but im using the second slot for memory card stock firmware is working perfect loving the phone in its price range .

[Q] G900F Network registration problem after flashing

Hi I have international version of S5 G900F. I flashed the phone with UK BTU stock rom. Now the problem is I cannot connect to the Network.
I tried going to Settings->More Networks -> Network Operators -> Select automatically . It took 5-10 mins to search but cannot connect.
Sim is not locked as it was working before I flashed the stock rom. also I read somewhere in internet that once the phone is region unlocked, it is permanently unlocked to use any other country sim. I don't know the original region of my phone but I bought it in Uk from 3rd party dealer not from any carrier.
I can think of two thing at the moment. It should be either regional locked again, but it does not prompt any thing to activate or enter pin or anything like that. or it should be wrong modem.
Is there a way to find if the phone is region locked ?
and is there a way to find correct region of the phone ?
the label on the box was removed so I cannot find from the box as well.
Thanks in advance.
I still haven't fixed this problem. Could someone suggest how to fix?
I've attached some screenshots with my phone info.
first image shows NETWORK:UNBLOCKED and IMEI Certi: PASS
-> I think this means, the phone is not blocked by network, and IMEI certificate has passed so it's not stolen or lost claimed phone.
another screenshot is the Firmware and CSC code/country information,
-> this means, this phone is build to sell in UK, so UK sim should unlock the regional lock.
Also the phone was working fine before I installed stock rom which I dowloaded from sammobile.
in the sceenshot, one of the network is connected but it says emergency call only because it cannot register to the network.
It is not sim lock also, because when I put T-mobile sim it does not ask for pin to unlock also.
what is wrong here. any idea guys? xda supposed to be the biggest android forum and samsung s5 is one of the most popular phone at the moment, isn't there anyone who have similar problem and solved? or atleast give some reason this cannot be fixed at all.
does the TMobile sim work? does it register with the network? If yes, then call the provider (of the other sim) and ask what's going on. Maybe you have a broken sim?

I've tried with Orange sim, and it still cannot register to the network. When I put the orange sim, it pop up a dialogbox asking to choose a network provider, there was two options, T-mobile and orange. So it is detecting the sim, but it cannot register.
And also, I tried my sim in another phone, and my sim works in another phone without any problem.
Did you try to flash the firmware again, and then after that restore factory defaults?

Yes I did, still it didn't work. I emailed samsung customer service with the problem, and they asked me to restore factory defaults.
I did that again but didn't work.
I tried one custom ROM as well. same problem in that rom.
You're rooted? If yes then there might be problem with the modem part of the ROM, can you install the official one part ROM and try with that?

I've installed stock rom several times, and several different versions( from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-G900F&pcode=0 ). Rooted several times, installed modem.bin files several times from many custom rom/ stock rom. None of them worked. I tried installing modem.bin when not rooted as well. And all the attempt failed.
I did everything I could possibly think of , Then I posted the question in the forum.
You have the IMEI ??!? Or it is lost?? Then only per efs-backup…
Or sim is broken…

Sry XanoZuke, I could not do anything to fix this, so I returned the phone and got another handset. I now have Exynos Octa-core version. Found snapdragon version is more power efficient. My phone gets heated very quickly.

Don't worry, I found out that the motherboard was water damaged (the irony of life....), so a bought an LG G3.
Regarding the Exynos chip, I'm never buying anything exynos ever again. The performance is not as solid as Snapdragon and it gets heated really fast. Still, thanks for your reply! ?

Sorry i end up selling the phone as is..
Same deal
My g900f has no mobile services sims fine
I have the same problem.
Cannot connect to network after flashing new ROM. Since then I tried about 10 different original roms and couple custom roms. Number of different MODEMs and BOOTLOADERs but with no joy. SIM card works fine in different phone.
Also I tried to load different CERT files and QCN with Z3X Box but that didn't help either.
I've tried *#0011# command here are results:
with LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto-connect:

with WCDMA only:

and GSM only:

It seems that GSM is not working at all.
At this stage I run out of ideas and probably gonna get rid of the phone as it is or use it as pimped-out ipod touch

Note 5 Indian users (SM-N920G) (How to use Jio Sim VoLTE calls)

I have tested this method on my N920G and it worked for me so don't know about other devices
As most of the Indian owners are aware of Jio network Preview offer for samsung flagships phone i.e. unlimited LTE , unlimited VOLTE calls , unlimited sms for 3 months. But there is an issue with the samsung latest update that does not allow most of the users to use Jio sim for making calls using stock dialer also they are getting 4g written on status bar and have to use Jio Join app for making calls and sms.
but i have found a solution to this issue and that is you have to downgrade your firmware to DD3 in order to get VoLte working and then u can update via OTA once it starts working.
All you got to do is flash

i found this solution and wanted to share it with the community

then install odin in your pc and in your device go to settings- about device - software info- then click on build number 7 times it will enable developer mode
in developer mode switch on usb debugging and OEM unlocked

You posted this thread in a wrong forum section. Please post it on "Help and troubleshooting" section.
Thanks for understanding!
You've probably lost IMEI and wifi MAC address while changing ROMs.
Type *#06# in dialer to check your IMEI. If there is none, try this http://ministryofsolutions.com/2016/07/huawei-p8-lite-ale-l21-balongc52b311.html
Hello, the very same problem here. I started with stock emui 4.0.1 as far as I remember correctly and locked bootloader. Unlocked bootloader with 16 digit passcode from Huawei. Later I flashed emui 4.1 b896. Later I flashed omnirom 6.0.1.
And it started. My lycamobile UK sim, 4g/lte compatible was not detected. I mean, it was detected but only internet was working. I was able to send one text and call a friend once, it was very random. And it was recognized as o2-uk, and 4g network considered as lycamobile. I tried rros 7.1.2 with same results.
My imei(both) and wifi mac address are ok.
Can someone help us to solve it?
You should write in the Omnirom thread, seems something happened while flashing it.
I already did but i saw this guy having same problem i joined the thread.
I just thought, as far as i know huawei removef b896 rom from their web page, there is only b895. Is it possible that flashing omnimod/rros over b895 would solve it?

Rebranding FRD-L09C185 to FRD-L09C675

**WARNING!! DO EVERYTHING @ YOUR OWN RISK!!NO ONE IS TO BE BLAMED EXCEPT YOU!!**
**ALSO I DID HAVE HELP(INDIRECTLY) FROM OTHER XDA MEMBERS
I owned a Honor 8 FRD-L09C185 version which supports dual sim but no volte. I'm from India and I use Jio SIM as my daily driver. For the sake of all other Non-Indians, Jio sim only support volte and the phones without volte uses an app called 'JIO4G VOICE'. The app often closes in the back ground & requires always ON data and its buggy. Hence I didn't receive messages or calls most of the time. Recently I heard about Honor 8 in India receiving volte support. Later on I learned that the Indian version of Honor is FRD-L02C675 and supports only single sim with volte support.
There were numerous threads for RETURNING TO STOCK ROM, ROLLING BACK TO EMUI4.1, REBRANDING CHINESE PHONES TO FRD-L09/FRD-L04. I wasted around a week trying to figure out a way to Rebrand my FRD-L09 to FRD-L02. Below are the links to the few xda threads which I had tried and failed.
1. https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-flashing-unapproved-firmwares-t3668306
2. https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/debrand-frd-al00-to-frd-l09-update-to-t3552445
After a lot of extensive searching in google and xda, I came across this xda thread from gopinaidu77. Here is the link : https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-honor-8-t3612873
Now I know most of your complaining about this being a duplicate post, but if you have read his post he warns of loosing dual sim feature if Rebranded to FRD-L02. I did everything as he said on the post and successfully. I checked 'About Phone' from Settings and found it as FRD-L02c675 and also found 'Volte' in Connections . Also I noticed no dual sim support like he said in the aforementioned post.
Now for some reason I rooted my phone, I think I rooted to install Dolby Surround feature or Viper4Android. Later I couldn't download many apps from playstore and couldn't use Samsung Pay on Gear S3(US version obviously, thank God) since my device wasn't verified. So I Unrooted my phone, wiped data/cache, the usual procedure.
When the device turned on my device was back to normal, but then later I found out that I have support for dual sim support as well as Volte. I don't know how this happened but anyone else is welcome to try. Will post screenshots later, since I don't have any micro sims lying around.
TIPS BEFORE REBRANDING (TRUST ME I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THAT COULD GO WRONG):
1. Backup everything to your PC/sdcard (via TWRP only)
2.Be patient, the whole process takes a lot of time and anything can go wrong and you may have to do it again.
3. Keep another phone as backup till you have completed the procedure.
4. I don't about other devices, but Honor 8 is totally unbrickable
a. I forgot to flash system file once and got func() error code; like said in other threads, drain your phone's battery
completely. Then enter fastboot mode (vol down+power), it works(tried twice).
b. Huawei Multi Tool is so useful and can be used easily to unbrick the device.
5. Know the procedure well and do it in order. Don't be careless!
6. Rebranding works only in EMUI4.1 , if you try in in EMUI5 you will brick your device. So rollback!
7. Finally thank the fellow xda members who have helped you.

The procedure worked and as for the support for Dual SIM & Volte, someone try what I did & share what happened so that other can benefit.
Also the firmware for FRD-L02 shared by gopinaidu77 and also available from honor website was found to be corrupted. I found a link to firmwares from another xda member, link : https://mega.nz/#F!hTRlyQpJ!PhjE6p3XJ0PeSSVXgXVLDA

**WARNING!! DO EVERYTHING @ YOUR OWN RISK!!NO ONE IS TO BE BLAMED EXCEPT YOU!!**
**ALSO I DID HAVE HELP(INDIRECTLY) FROM OTHER XDA MEMBERS
I owned a Honor 8 FRD-L09C185 version which supports dual sim but no volte. I'm from India and I use Jio SIM as my daily driver. For the sake of all other Non-Indians, Jio sim only support volte and the phones without volte uses an app called 'JIO4G VOICE'. The app often closes in the back ground & requires always ON data and its buggy. Hence I didn't receive messages or calls most of the time. Recently I heard about Honor 8 in India receiving volte support. Later on I learned that the Indian version of Honor is FRD-L02C675 and supports only single sim with volte support.
There were numerous threads for RETURNING TO STOCK ROM, ROLLING BACK TO EMUI4.1, REBRANDING CHINESE PHONES TO FRD-L09/FRD-L04. I wasted around a week trying to figure out a way to Rebrand my FRD-L09 to FRD-L02. Below are the links to the few xda threads which I had tried and failed.
1. https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-flashing-unapproved-firmwares-t3668306
2. https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/debrand-frd-al00-to-frd-l09-update-to-t3552445
After a lot of extensive searching in google and xda, I came across this xda thread from gopinaidu77. Here is the link : https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-honor-8-t3612873
Now I know most of your complaining about this being a duplicate post, but if you have read his post he warns of loosing dual sim feature if Rebranded to FRD-L02. I did everything as he said on the post and successfully. I checked 'About Phone' from Settings and found it as FRD-L02c675 and also found 'Volte' in Connections . Also I noticed no dual sim support like he said in the aforementioned post.
Now for some reason I rooted my phone, I think I rooted to install Dolby Surround feature or Viper4Android. Later I couldn't download many apps from playstore and couldn't use Samsung Pay on Gear S3(US version obviously, thank God) since my device wasn't verified. So I Unrooted my phone, wiped data/cache, the usual procedure.
When the device turned on my device was back to normal, but then later I found out that I have support for dual sim support as well as Volte. I don't know how this happened but anyone else is welcome to try. Will post screenshots later, since I don't have any micro sims lying around.
TIPS BEFORE REBRANDING (TRUST ME I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THAT COULD GO WRONG):
1. Backup everything to your PC/sdcard (via TWRP only)
2.Be patient, the whole process takes a lot of time and anything can go wrong and you may have to do it again.
3. Keep another phone as backup till you have completed the procedure.
4. I don't about other devices, but Honor 8 is totally unbrickable
a. I forgot to flash system file once and got func() error code; like said in other threads, drain your phone's battery
completely. Then enter fastboot mode (vol down+power), it works(tried twice).

All are good but only tell me one thing about. How dual sim working properly in your case. do you try dual sim. If yes then give me process how did you get it dual sim in FRD-L02C675. BECAUSE i have FRD-L09C185 also and i want to use dual sim. I know the process of rebranding. An i also done with FRD-L04 and revert back also because there have no volte. But today I read your post and found it's possible. So tell me the process after rebranding. after rebranding procedures to get volte. Please tell me and also tell me you tried two sim together or not. I mean I want to know that if technical error show two sim slot but not in real present. I mean you understand what I mean. and please mail me also if you have time.
Hi,
I've rebranded my Chinese AL10 to L09 and am now trying to update to B412-FULL (OTA official update, in system update if I select download latest full package it find this). When I try to install this is all seems to work (no errors are shown) but it puts me into a boot loop. The only way I've found I can get out of this is to rollback via the force update method (using microSD card's dload folder). Once back in EMUI 4, I can do a system update to get back to B360 (EMUI 5). Does anyone know if this is as far as I can update - is this some issue with any newer EMUI version and the rebrand maybe?
Thanks

Airtel Volte [How to Enable It]

Hey guys, I have finally arrived at a proper result after a long time.
Airtel supports Volte in all areas except J&k. , as mentioned on their website: https://www.airtel.in/volte/
Note: First u need to have an Airtel 4g sim along with a 4g/3g data plan.
So the steps to activate Volte is simple :
1. Go to the airtel Volte website given above.
2. Check for compatible devices
Note: You will be needing any one of the compatible devices listed by Airtel on their page.
3. Now you have to put your sim in the device [ compatible one ] and they reset the network settings of the device.
4. Now restart the phone and wait for some time.
5. After doing so you would get a link from Airtel.
Note: Something similar to this - Please open the following link to get manual instructions for service settings.
http://10.89.22.101:9080/SADM/Manualgrp=Auto+Device+Detection&rcId=4&msisdn=%2B91<airtelmobilenumber>&dev=Xiaomi+RedmiNote5Pro
6. After clicking on the link, you have to restart the device.
7. Airtel Volte will be enabled, now you can put it back in your Zuk Z2 and Volte is enabled.
And for those who want to know what rom I am running on,
Rom: Jaguar version January 10
Gapps: Mind the gapps
magisk: Installed
Hit the thanks button if I helped you.:good:

ok to solve your issue, all you gotta do is follow this website: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3695877 get the latest version of Indian stock rom guess (zui 2.5) and install that using qfil.
now set it up and enable volte on the device. Then follow the steps given above. Happy Flashing :good:
No matter what I try, wait for similar message as given in #1 or call customer care for volte settings they are just providing me with Instructions on how to enable VoLTE in settings.
I'm not able to get beyond that point i.e., not able to receive the link to enable VoLTE on my sim card.
I didn't got any link but kept my sim in poco f1 for 4hrs it's worked for me....
Now i can able to use volte in Z2 Plus....
