Latest Firmware for P8 GRA-UL10?

Can anyone tell me, please, which is the latest firmware for the Premium version of the P8?
By the way, is there diferent region P8 premiums?
I bought one in Portugal...is there any problem if, for example, the latest firmware version is available in Asia or Russia?

Probably this one:

Good afternoon .I am an owner of Dual Sim Huawei P8 GRA-UL10 Premium with 64GB Ram with 6.0 Marshmallow firmware C00B352 and EMUI 4.0 ,but this is a China rom without Googleplay services and many Chinese apps .
I already unlocked the Bootloader ,i put TWRP Recovery and i root it wirh Superuser .Is there a way to insert an Internatiol European Rom for this mobile?

This is the official Marshmallow rom for the middle eastern region(C433), you will find the same download package for many countries like(Tunisia, Jordan, Algeria...). Not sure if the Russian rollback package from Marshmallow to Lollipop works for your region though in case you want to go back to Lollipop. Anyway Marshmallow is way better than Lollipop in my opinion.

I suggest you stay on the chinese rom you get updates faster that way than any other region, more stable but the down side is the missing google services as you mentioned. There isn't a tested method for our device model of doing this but there is an old method that worked for another Huawei device if you are brave enough to attempt it. http://www.carbontesla.com/2015/09/how-to-change-region-of-your-huawei-honor-4c-root/
Some ideas that might make this work in theory( This can break your phone, so do this at your own risk and don't forget to backup the original files and restore the default permissions when making changes):
1- Follow the link until procedure: step 2.
2-You can try step 3 or another way i guess you can try: Revert back to an old chinese Lollipop rom on you phone, then download an asian Lollipop rom(ex: Malaysia) extract from the rom the "OEM Info File" needed. Then on your phone go to "/dev/block/hi_mci.0/by-name/" notice the location of these files might be different in you rom but they are there you have to search for them though. After finding the location of the folder copy and replace the files form the Malaysian rom to your phone. After that try to install again the same Malaysian rom and see if it works but this may break your phone. If this works you can then proceed to download a Malaysian Marshmallow rom and install it.
Just wanted to give my 2 cents :laugh:

I have the exact same phone, bought in Portugal too. You have to use the GRA-UL10C432Bxxx builds. This is the latest build available (Marshmallow)
http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/02/huawei-p8-ul00-b317-marshmallow-update-preview-europe/
I know the title says 'preview' but it is not. It is the stable version from Huawei, and the one i am currently using.

Where can i find those rom c185b361 ? ))

Can you kindly assist me with the full procedure of how you did it. I am currently facing the same problem.

Root for Huawei P9 Lite mini

Is it possible to root P9 Lite mini in the same way as P9 lite?

no! i use same metod with twrp for p9 lite...now im stuck in bootloop
can anyone help me with stock recovery? and mode to connect to pc?

Hi you all,
I've already tried to flash various ports of the official TWRP: prague, berlin, hi6250, duk, frd, vtr, greatslon, elite, meticulus etc. None seems to run, each one makes the phone stuck in a bootloop.
Does anyone know which the right one is?

I found this...
I found this but it did not adapt to the version of our team (In my case SLA-l03) you can try it and comment how it has gone
goo.gl / VGD9S2 Apparently the device has more than 3 names

is yours maybe a Nova Lite 2017? If so, can you post here a link to direct download?
Is your phone a dual-SIM or a single-SIM?
Yours might be the right one.
I really appreciate all the help you can give me.
Thanks
---------- Post added at 10:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------
If I have understood correctly, SLA-L02 and SLA-L03 are single-SIM models.
SLA-L22 and SLA-L23 are dual-SIM models.
So yours should be good for mine, too.
As I don't know Russian, so I ask you to post a link to download it directly.
Thanks

Good news
The device has names like Nova Lite 2017, Huawei Enjoy 7, Y6 Pro 2017 and P9 Lite Mini.
That may be the case, SLA-L02 and SLA-L03 are unique SIM models.
SLA-L22 and SLA-L23 are dual SIM models. (In my case SLA-l03)
Good news, apparently the Russian friends have managed to release root on our device, only the SLA-L22 version, for those who do not want to risk the device it is not recommended to use the method.
- TRANSLATED BY ME, I FEEL IT FOR BAD TRANSLATIONS--
STEPS.
1.- you must unlock the boot manager. (There are already methods) (there will be a typical warning notification every time you turn on your smartphone)
2.- Say the post, you must have the SLA-L22C10B120 or SLA-L22C10B130 patch.
3.- Use of the ADB tools and flash boot.img
If you want to restore your original boot.img, I leave them both (Root and Original) (maybe the system language is in Russian)
Mention: Maybe it works in SLA-TL10 or SLA-AL00
I can not put direct links, delete spaces:
Link: med ia fire com
/file/plfbe6ly67upepb/SLA-22_and_TL00_AaL00.zip
---------- Post added at 03:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:31 AM ----------
The Chinese version is SLA-TL10 and SLA-AL00.
The name changes at will to versions of the world, same firmware, different name SLA-22

Thanks.
Unfortunately, the build name installed on my device is SLA-L02C432B133.
As you can see, we have different region codes. So I can't install the patched boot image you suggested.
There are no Russian firmwares neither here nor here. As I can't find and flash any Russian firmware, so I can't flash this patched boot image.
European region code is C432 and Russian region code is C10.
What do you think about flashing this boot image file? Is it worth it? Did you try it on your device? Does it work?
Let me know

I flashed the patched boot image file, but... Nothing happens, all remains the same.
It seems to be not pre-rooted. What do I have to do now?

SOLVED!
First, I installed Magisk Manager, then i flashed the prerooted patched_boot.img file. Now I have root permission.

HUAWEI Enjoy 7S (FIG-AL10) rebranding to HUAWEI P Smart (FIG-LX1): feasible? how?

I bought a Huawei Enjoy 7s (FIG-AL10) in China, but now I would like to rebrand it to a European version (FIG-LX1).
I read tons of posts suggesting to use TWRP, but there is no TWRP available for this phone.
I found a firmware for FIG-LX1 version on Firmware Finder, but now I do not know how to load it into the phone and rebrand it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I bought the huawei P smart which is the European version of Huawei Enjoy 7s. i think we should wait for a forum to be opened here for this device before we can do anything like unlocking bootloader or Rebranding and rooting.
just be patient bro.

I've just found a procedure to root Huawei P Smart, but XDA does not allow me to post the link.
Try to look in google: "Huawei P smart - Root - Anleitung".
It works perfectly. I tried it out on my Huawei Enjoy 7S.
Next thing would be to flash another firmware to change from Chinese to European version, but I'm still not sure how to do it.

I just tried, but system.img writing failed.
In the rescue.exe compressed folder it seems that there are two files: system.img and vendor.img.
Is vendor.img to be renamed to cust.img?

Sorry. I uploaded vendor instead of cust. Will replace the download by tomorrow.
Just translated the tuto:

I tried to flash from fastboot cust.img and system.img of P Smart on Enjoy 7S but writing failed.
Probably rebrand on this phone involves other partitions or files (oeminfo?) that I'm still not aware of.
I hope a procedure for rebrand will be released soon.

Have you had any luck? I see there is a TWRP out and an update at the above link to android-hilfe forum. I did post a reply there but seem to have had my account locked for now :crying:, so though i might see how you did while i wait for help.

Thanks so much, really appreciate the help. I will do so in the future.
Just to confirm what would be the reason to flash and install a TWRP? For dev reasons only?
Or just to remove all the preset Chinese settings?

@ChinHon
Interesting i can install all the services from Google-Installer-v3 onto a Enjoy 7S, but can not open the Play Store or Drive as it just hangs on the loading screen. And never actually goes in.
Haha, im stumped .

Find the current Playstore Apk from the net and install it.
TWRP is necessary for Magisk rooting or to create backups or flash zip`s.
I can't help much with dabranding. I don't know very much about that.

I tried in several ways to install C432 firmware on my Enjoy 7S, but no way to flash System.img.
As soon as I flash C432 oeminfo file FRP gets locked and I cannot flash anything anymore.
I tried also Dc Unlocker tools, but System.img flashing stops with the message "Sparse flash write failure".
I'm still looking for somebody who managed to rebrand the Enjoy 7S to P Smart.

I wish i could help,I cant currently even get any Google option on the Enjoy 7S to run. Even trying to add a google account to cloud just freezes. Seems as soon as any Google option is chosen, the Google Services just states "Restarting".
Out of options.

Google services installation was an easy task compared to rebrand.
Download GMS from the link below:
https://mega.nz/#!WqYwyLyD!l7H8WRHBHs0ZwpyE0w2c7n6AvTSpTF29KjjX7_MM2u8
Procedure:
1. Install GMS (it is going to clear all previous google apps and restart the phone)
2. Install google play that I included in the zip file.
Let me know. For me it worked like a charm.

I dont think u can. U have to unlock your bootloader and then install a rom from xiaomi.eu which is basically a multi English rom with Google integration

Hey! first I apologize for my bad English. I use google translate.
I'm a new one when it comes to Xioami, and want to buy a Note 7 from the internet, but it's with the china rom, so I have to change it to the global rom.
I have read a lot about how to do it, but I am still afraid to do so, but if I write a summary of what I understood:
1- I have to unlock my mobile. (360 hours wait)
2- Download global room from this page! http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
3- The room must be "fastboot file"?
4- I enter global rom with "Mi flash"
5- Can I relock bootloader after that?

1. Yes you must wait

4. Yes
5. Don't do that if you want brick your phone
6. Yes if the flashing is suspended

This risk is if you do not know what you are doing. At the end of the page there is a explanation how it will brick your device and how to prevent it. So i guess if you use twrp or miflash with "flash_all" only selected you are good to go.

EDIT: Here's a link with all the info you might want: https://en.gizchina.it/2018/09/xiaomi-lista-modelli-brick-miui-global-china/

Thanks for the source link. That's an interesting read and wasn't aware of this. I own some of those devices and could have sworn that I accidentally locked the bootloader on one of them and being forced to go through the unlock process (not because it was bricked, but because I wanted to test a different TWRP build).
However, I can't recall which phone that happened to. I own the Mi Mix 3, note 6 pro, note 5 pro, among others. I will look into this further.
Thanks again

but it only happens when the bootloader is relocked. I only see that limiting those who aren't rooting and using bypasses to bootloader detection (magisk).
and they still have to go through China's firewall, so they'll still be monitored.
this doesn't seem government related at all. seems to be another way for Xiaomi to attack resellers (similar to the bootloader unlock time limit)

VNS-L21 Telenor hu stock Android

Hi, all.
I found my old P9 lite, which i want to mod just for the heck of it. Sadly the EMUI version of it is stuck on 4.1.3 with no way to upgrade it. I recall there being a website that hosts the stock roms but it's down (it's under the cloud.huawei domain iirc)
Does anybody in the forums have a copy of the stock firmware with perhaps an update?
Build num: VNS-L21C900B157

Your FW is incomplete or incompatible, C128 is regional variant of Telenor HU.
Try to install this {Mod edit}. Instructions can be found in ReleaseDoc folder.
Then, unlock the bootloader and rebrand your phone to C432 eu version. With C432 you have a real chance to upgrade to Nougat.

First of all, you must have the correct build number (i.e. the correct FW in the phone). With the C900 region you won't get the bootloader unlock code using DC-Unlocker (maybe with the PotatoNV method, I don't know).

Done. Bootloader has been unlocked, I have written down the code from back when they provided them
I'm stuck with figuring out what to do after the C128 has been installed

fastboot oem get-build-number
fastboot oem get-product-model
fastboot getvar vendorcountry
and post the results.

if someone downloads the original Huawei FW on this site, it's at their own risk (honestly, I haven't heard of a problem in 5 years). I don't think that the link to the page will somehow endanger xda...

That might be the case but we have our policy. And if a link/site is blocked by Malwarebytes we generally don't accept such a link/site.

All right, I take note. I just don't know how to help people when this is the only source of official Service FW (free)...

That's fair and I certainly acknowledge your dilemma especially as you're known to me as an always helpful member with a mindset that reflects XDA's spirit. But you also find criteria for not accepted links in rules no. 11 and 13 even if they were the only source.
