No updates OTA or via Huawei HiSuite for unlocked GB handset. Still on B120. Help! - Huawei P10 Plus Questions & Answers

Any idea why I've not had any updates on my Sim Free UK P10 Plus? I'm still running VKY-L09C432B120. Have updates been released in the UK for this phone? Also, not sure if it's related, in About Phone>Certification: it says Serbia.

I had the same problem on my VKY-L29C636 and I had to manually update using this app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teammt.gmanrainy.huaweifirmwarefinder

Sometimes, you can get updates in their HiCare app, when you can't get them from the update in phone settings.

Thanks both, I'll try HiSuite when I get chance. Will installing an update via the firmware finder app invalidate warranty? Also, do I need to be rooted for it to work?

No it doesn't invalidate the warranty because those updates are the official ones. And because of that, it does not need to be rooted to work. I went 12 rounds with that app and finally figured it out so if you need any help with it, I would be happy to help you save some time.

I have the same issue on mine. Assuming it is an issue of course. Odd that March is last update though...

Use HWOTA or FunkyHuawei to get updates. Even Firmware Finder will allow you get C432B162.

Thanks all for the advice, I used Firmware Finder and now have my P10 Plus running B162.
One upside of the upgrade is that I can now use the full 220mbps available from my Virgin Hub instead of the 30mbps I was limited to before.

Seems I've run into a little trouble updating to the latest firmware version on Firmware Finder. B175 is available but when I try to install it shows as unauthorised. I've tried this with both the proxy enabled throughout the upgrade and disabled after the initial setup. Any ideas?

This happens a lot with Firmware Finder, it's not always possible to install f/w even though it's available. In this instance your two options are HWOTA method (search these forums) or Funky Huawei's pay service.
The only improvement in B175 is Android Security Patch dated 5th October.

Thanks scook94, I'll give this one a miss and look into HWOTA if the problem persists with future updates.

If you have September Security Patch then I wouldn't worry too much, I think that's the one that fixed the BlueBorne vulnerability...
HWOTA requires backing up, unlocking bootlader (which wipes device), updating then restoring. That's too much bother for me so I chose to pay for the upgrade. Each to their own. Firmware Finder is great but it requires Huawei authorising the update, which they don't always do.

I have this problem with b175, all the others work.
I contacted firmware finder and they couldn't really understand English. If you notice though on ff there is a few other updates that are not compatible too listed above,to be fair I'm not sure b175 is even out on the p10 plus yet? It's only mentioned for the p10 when you Google search but it's annoying me now because I want another update just to verify that my phone can be still kept up to date via the app

hi all,
I am really struggling with this. My P10+ is on B120 and I cannot for the life of me upgrade it. I tried Firmware finder in proxy mode or download mode. I tried downloading it on the pc and copy to the sd card , still no luck.
I seem to be getting, this firmware is not verified or that the download isn't verified. i also now have to press the power button whenever i restart the phone. is there any solution to this ?

I seem to have the same issue although mine is the P10. Picked up sim free from Argos. Still running B120 and device also says certified in Serbia. Also struggling with the forced update method. Getting a bit frustrated.

I did make an attempt but it didn't work for me. I'm not that confident going through the process either. Was kinda hoping there'd be an OTA waiting for me. Huawei Twitter support says B162 is the latest authorised release from them but can't seem to tell me much else.

Anyone resolve this issue yet? I will get in touch with huawei and ask if needed. im b120 still running march 2017 update. it a shame. i bought from amazon uk

Good news guys! I figured out the way to download the software updates! Go into the preinstalled app on your phone called Emui Software Updates, click on the three dots on top right of your screen, and click on download latest software packages.. Voila! Hope this helped! Im currently downloading B171 for my UK sim free p10.

How to update the Huawei Mate 9 Pro (Lon-l29c)'s firmware?

Is there anyone out there that knows how to update the Mate 9 Pro (Lon-l29c)? The firmware finder app seems suspiciously unable to supply an "authenticated" update package, & paying funky Huawei every time I need to update is a bit to much for me. I have the files for the update, I just have no idea how to go about making the phone use it even recognize the files. Are there any methods available other than the two I mentioned?

And you dont have to pay evertime you update it , if you pay 30$ you get 5 points which will allow you to update your phone 5 times

Not to be rude, but I posted to find another method other than funky Huawei. Even with the fact that it's just $30 for 5 updates is way more than I would ever spend for something I've done for free. I plan to have this phone for years, and I'm pretty sure there'll be more than just 5 updates in a year (there's been 3 in the 2 months I've owned the device already).

Do you need to do any extra steps on the Mate 9 Pro? Is not having an external sd card in our phones a problem?
Currently considering rebranding to C636, since that versions seems to get updates fastest.

Hello,
I have a chinese LON-AL00, could anyone with an international version tell me if they got Google Assistant working?
I still stuck with Huawei's assistant HiVoice which greatly sucks :crying:, and i would like to know if changing firmware would actually get me the Google Assistant.
Thank you

Did you use FF ?
Did you use the OTA-MF or the FullOTA-MF?
Last time I tried for my C636 (B182) I wasn't authorised!

Tried again. I just kept getting that incremental stuff where it keeps wanting to download another patch.
So. I cleared the folder specified in FF, rebooted the phone and then it kept saying the connection was unstable.
So, I uninstalled FF Proxy and then reset the connection. File downloaded. Phone rebooted and said it couldn't verify the file and now.....
"Your device has failed verification" on boot up. It will work if I press the power button, but something is clearly wrong. It suggests I use 'ERecover' which states it will download the most recent build over Wifi.
Balls. Will give it a try - but I fear I've bricked the bloody thing!

Ah. Thanks for that. That's how you get around that problem!
Onto the new problem - "Your device has failed verification." Huawei's own solution failed. I presume it only works in Asia or China. It appears to want you to use 'ERecover' and wifi*not fully booted phone) to download a system image. Doesn't work. (Funky Huawei use this method, but they change your DNS so presumably ERecover points at their servers for a fee.)
Apparently factory reset doesn't work either and I didn't wanna start from scratch again.
I Googled about and this does seem a relatively common issue and someone else got the issue on a Huawei Mate 9 (not pro) doing the same thing. The OTA updates can cause this, he flashed an older firmware. I tried to flash the older firmwares, two of which got 'not authenticated' messages. So, going for broke, I had a go at installing the newest B182 firmware FULL again through FF. By some miracle - it worked and fixed the "Your device has failed verification." issue as well!!
Phew. So managed to get B182 on L29C636. :victory:
Only weird thing I got was Google Drive didn't want to work post installation(kept saying no network connection) - so I deleted all data from Google Play and this started working again.
Now that I know the critical point in using FF - "Download latest full package" as stated above. This shouldn't be such a ballache.
Can anyone confirm the benefit of converting the C636(Asian) to the European version- C432?

Ota vky-l09c432

Which is the last official OTA checking from update system for this model VKY-L09C432?
I have had only the OTA 123. But I see with ff also 125 and 130 but not from system update.
Thanks
Updates seem to be pushed by location. If youre outside of the intended c432 area, you might be waiting awhile. You could try VPN, or there is always funky Huawei

Which region / location are you in?
Just Unboxed my unbranded P10+ , and out of the box its on 120.. but no b130 OTA.. ... Im in UK, which is c432 region.. but as Goranock pointed out.. Huawei do OTA via location..
You could try downloadiong Huawei's HiSuite and trying an update
Im a little cautious about manually flashing Hauwei roms... I used to have a P9, but flashing a stock C432 Rom on a stock C432 device changed it to a C900.. which renders it useless to Stock OTAs and Android Pay.. according to some XDA modders.. the C900 on the P9 was a test / safe mode rom.. not a consumer rom,, so be careful .. although I cant say what the P10+ would do, but Im net messing with any Hauwei roms.. Ive even read of folk flashing a stock rom.. and bricking their P9.... just a word of caution
Hope UK gets it soon
I am a bit puzzled that the updates are not more of an issue here. I think it's really annoying that currently there seem to be no other ways for manually initiating the update than to use (the way too expensive) funkyhuawei or to unlock bootloader. Did anyone manage to successfully initiate an update by using a VPN and if so what location do I use to do so?

Yes, thank you, I know about that way though but the thing is I dont want to even have to unlock the bootloader in the first place, even if it ends up being locked/relocked afterwards. Personally that's just too much of a hassle just to install updates in my book. But since you said you are from Italy and you obviously already have received the update I'm gonna try and use an Italian VPN to try and see if I can at least upgrade to B123 then. Even though I feel that's a bit ridiculous now that not only B130 but also B133 seems to be out already. By the speed they are distributing their updates OTA I'm probably not gonna till B133 by autumn or something...
Edit: nope, tried several European countries, obviously VPN doesn't help...
Just wondering : what's the changelog for B133 ?
Pretty new to Huawei's firmware here... on the russian FF site I don't see it.

Firmware Finder was updated yesterday and I checked authorization of full OTA B181 (with IMEI), FF answered YES! I started the "send firmware to updater" and changed wifi to Server=Localhost + port=8080 and the download started slowly. Then I paused the download, changed the wifi back to normal and restarted download again.
After downloading all night: I AM NOW updated from B172 to MHA-L29C636B181 and on 5th May 2017 security.

2. did you chose the FF option of sending your IMEI? I suppose that you updated FF to the latest ver.

Hi Tex!
You are absolutely right about the "special peculiary" update policy - or rather very irritating policy - from Huawei's side. They are selling the mate at at rather high price, telling lies about which type of ram they include, at start mending the phone at a very slow and unpredictable way. In my case the touchscreen have not been working properly before this B181 update.
I sincerely hope you get your proper update soon. So you have to keep trying

Yes, definitely have been choosing the 85027 file (the other full OTA which is 85049 is showing as not approved when I check it anyway), have tried twice now and wasted 5GB+ data doing so!

You are not alone, no joy here in NZ either.
Given it's the same hardware with the same software build, I'm wondering if they're checking against the MNC/MCC of the installed SIM card(s) when authenticating. May be worth trying without a SIM installed.
A previous update (156?) passed auth when a new Huawei ID was created for a region that had the update approved, so there may be several components at work here. Keen to find out the common elements between devices that have and have not passed the auth check for the update to make this easier in future.
EDIT: Nope, removing the SIM (and switching regions) achieved nothing, still fails auth. Must be server-side.

b225 update

Currently downloading...
Would nice with Google Apps and service

can you use now on tap(google assistant) on this firmware?
Looks like B225 not released worldwide. My Chinese Mate 9 in Pakistan doesnt offer the update, yet.
Does this update resolve the notification problem?
Is there anything in particular you need to do to get this? I'm still showing B213 as the latest available update for me, and I'm also on MHA-AL00C00.

Authorization always fails for me on new firmware via FF.
For HiCare, ensure you use Service >> Update. If you just go to Member >> Check for Updates I don't think it will work.

Interesting thread... I'm in UK and still have B182?
Is it me or is the UK miles behind with updates.
Didn't know about HiCare before but nothing in there either

Otherwise good suggestions would include: HiApp, Google Play Store or Google search as last resort...
Must you install B200 first? (Huawei Mate 9 Pro)

EMUI 9 for P10 Plus (VKY-L09)?

Hello,
I have a question about EMUI9 for my P10 Plus (VKY-L09).
It looks like the updating is already being rolled out to devices and i still didn't get the update.
Is there a way to still get it somehow?
My bootloader isn't unlocked (tried to unlock it but no luck with DC-Unlocker services)
I hope someone could help me.
thanks in advance
TBH I dont see any problem brother except lack of patience Just wait for few days and you will get it too.

thanks for letting me know guys
As of today my P10+ hasn't received the pie update yet. Still on 8.0.0.327 C654. I'm in Canada. Carrier is Rogers.
Is there any safe way of manually installing the update? I'm used to flashing my older phones, but never tried flashing this one.
Thanks

What do you mean by authorize update? I didn't know that I needed to authorize anything to allow updates on my phone.
Thanks!

Just from oreo to pie. Emui 8 to emui 9 update requires you to open up hicare on your phone and authorise the update.
Good to know. I received the official OTA yesterday night. Running smoothly! Thanks!
Does the pie update on P10 plus have the same video stabilisation problem as P10 pie?
