Mate 9 MHA-L09C316 - Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi Guys
Just picked my new Huawei mate 9. So far so good..
But i have an issue with updates. My version is MHA-L09C316B150. Im checking for updates but the update system says i have the latest version.. I checked on this thread that the oreo update is out. Will i be able to update my phone to the MHA-L09 version listed here?
Also can someone explain what the C316 is? I see there is C33, C632 etc

Just to add, my device has the last security update from Jan 2017.. Wtf.. Why has no further updates been done..

Value after C in build number is region/localization.
List of known regions is here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/regions-mate-9-region-codes-t3555086
But I didn't find C316.
Where are you from? Is your phone selling in stores or you got it from mobile operator by contract?
You can see available stock ROMs for your phone in Firmware Finder. Enter model MHA-L09C316 in search.
I did it, but FF did not find anything about your region. There are two options: stock ROMs for C316 are existing, but FF does not know where are they. Or Huawei did not post them to HiCloud.
If I have had phone with rare region, I will rebrand it to more popular region. It is too hard process for newbie. You have to read about unlock bootloader, TWRP, patched recovery, different models and regions. But staying on region C316 you may not receive any update even. By my experience, Huawei updates popular regions and does not care operator's versions.
As alternative you can ask provider (if phone by contract), write to Huawei or wait for update.

@ 5[Strogino] Thanks for feedback
Im from South Africa and yes the phone is on contract. Network is Vodacom which is part of Vodafone.. I dont understand why this stupid network didnt issue the international region as most phones come with European software installed or even middle east areas. I agree with you, i will have to rebrand my device. I have done flashing on samsung and LG phones but this is my first Huawei.. will read up on some posts and attempt.
was trying to update with Huawei updater 2.0 and hisuite, no luck.. gives me no internet connection error.. tried editing hosts file too but no luck

Finally managed to to install Android 8 and rebrand my device to europe firmware.. testing now.

It's an official beta, but still a beta.
Oreo for Mate 9 should arrive in December or January for everyone.
Right now you can only install beta by applying in Huaweis beta app, or cheat and use Hwota as you did
It's a very stable beta.

Where is the Nougat update for L29C636?

So i am now starting to get extremely frustrated with Huaweis support teams and the lack of information on here. I have been waiting for a nougat update since the betas last December came out and still nothing. I watch every device model of the mate8 get this update except the model i have listed in the title. Even the L09C636... so where the update for the dual sim L29? and why are there basically no useful threads for it?
I have tried unlocking the bootloader to install the last beta build i have downloaded because it wont install with the official update app. The emui site that is listed all over the mate8 forum keeps telling me that i have not been signed into my huawei ID for more then 14 days when in reality, it has been for almost 2 months now. Im tired of waiting and once again huaweis support is useless in this respect even though they have a whole official page dedicated to unlocking the bootloader.
So I am here with a last ditch effort to finally enjoy this phone. I really want to keep it becasue its had the best battery life on any phone ive tested of late, and its super fast and snappy. Im just picky on software updates becasue like most of you. I like to be as up to date as possible.
Please if you have any info or sites that can help me out with this issue put something in the comments, it would be greatly appreciated.
also im in canada if that has anything to do with my problems, because this is the Asian model of the device.
Same problem. Always waiting for Nougat...

It wasn't working perfectly at all, I only just installed the nougat update yesterday by the Huawei firmware finder app and proxy. The page for the official firmware thread on here hasn't been updated yet to show the new b521 build, it's still on the b321 and below with dead links.
But I digress I found what I was looking for finally even if jumping through hoops to get it and being the last device model to do so.
I'm just happy to finally be running nougat

Hi there
It's so outrageous that we don't have Nougat for C636.
Someone should post a message in twitter or social media on Huawei's pages... Maybe the Singapore one as the C636 is the Asian model.
Though there are a couple of Nougat betas... We still don't have a stable version and we are way past Q1 2017 which was when Huawei said the Mate 8 would be updated...

I'm still on NXT L29C636B193...
I haven't done anything to it manually...
I've been worried there was chance I may break something... I've heard someone with L29 C636 upgrade manually to Nougat and then do a factory reset only to break it... And then be forced to root it... I want to continue using banking apps so I haven't risked it yet....
Hopefully I'll be updated via OTA to Nougat... Since I'm becoming a little restless...
Also have you manually updated at all? I've been on B193 since day one with no updates...
U can update your phone by firmware finder app ...

lucky you!
yes i updated manually from B180 to B320 and B320 to B560 and just now i'm updating from B560 to B580 by using system update (its my first time!!!) in this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/nxt-l29c185b580-frimware-t3595441
also before mate 8, i had sony and samsungs phone and updated manually a lot
but yes! its so risky.
I just upgraded via firmware finder to l29c636b585. Went smoothly.

Version compatibility? MHA-L09C900B186 to MHA-L09 8.0.0.324 (C900)

My Mate 9 build version is MHA-L09C900B186 (unlocked international version). I see on Developer Team MT there is a version: MHA-L09 8.0.0.324 (C900) which seems to be Oreo for the "C900", correct?
However Firmware Finder says "not approved"...
Has anyone received an OTA or updated the same version (C900) to Oreo?
Oreo is beta, so unless you enroll the beta program and get in you won't be able to install it normally.
You'll have to use HWOTA.

Their official non beta update has not rolled out yet except for the Chinese variant AFIK and those are quotas, it hasn't rolled out to any other variant as of yet. That article was not very clear about that. When it has rolled out for your variant you will know it as it will show up in settings, system update. All those Oreo ROMs on ff are betas so they are not authorized unless you are enrolled in the beta program. You can install them, but only through the HWOTA method. If you want the official OTA update be patient, it will get to you.

You are correct that it is Oreo for the C900 variant the reason ff says "not approved" is because it is a beta version.
Still no update for the C900?
And still no update for this darn phone, when is Huawei going to release an update? Android "P" is out already and no bloody update yet for this phone.
Same here. No update for this phone.
Even worse: the security patches are from April 2017.... thats a year ago. Really bad.

Hmm. You have generic international model without binding to specific region.
As I know, it has poor update history.
Maybe, it would be better to rebrand onto C432 (Europe) region.
I think I have the same international unspecified region (although I though I was Middle East) and have been on 181 all the time until today.
Then I received an update to b182 then b188 then 370c then 371c one after the other - just now.

Probably, Huawei will force C185 region to Oreo.
According experience, there are some factors which decrease chances to get update. Have C185 region while living in Kenya is one of them. I have C636 region's ROM and living in Russia. Also, I have problems with automatic updates and have to use FF to update. Not a big problem at all
6 hours after I wrote previous post, I received update on my device.
Without FF !
If you should want to change from C900 to something else, But I worked for me. I have a phone that I found was IMEI registered to the middle east but during the IMEI checks via FF I found that C900 and C567 worked on mine.
My phone was originally received as C900.
Just try your IMEI against separate ROMs and you'll find the compatible ones.

Yeah. Huawei approves imei from other regions, but you have to do rebranding procedure first to go onto foreign region's ROM.
Checked again and the firmware MHA-L09C432B363 is "approved for installation" through FF onto my MHA-L09C900B186, will this work?
Or should I use Funkyhuawei (or other method?) to rebrand?

new firmware Versions in "Firmwarefinder for Huawei"

Hi,
I have an Huawei P10 Plus Dual SIM VKY-L29C636 with the current running Firmware VKY-L29C636B172
The last update was in November 2017 since then I don't get any new Updates displayed in the settings.
I downloaded the App "Firmwarefinder for Huawei" and it shows me the following newer Firmware Versions:
VKY-L29C636B210
VKY-L29C636B211
Does anyone use this new Versions?
Should I update to one of this new Versions?
Just check firmware access see if you approved to update. My FF already shows B301 which is Oreo but denied access when checking it.
Depends where you live. I got tge same phone and I don't have access to download and update.

The latest model is 211 and you can install it via HWOTA. I don't know anyone using this version. But probably there were no changes after all. Only simple performance tweaks. Otherwise software already stable.
For me latest firmware is 321 however says not authorised to download it..
I've installed the new Version VKY-L29C636B212
It has the Android Security Patches from January 2018
The first thing I discovered, that the phone runs a lot smoother, espacally when scrolling websides in Firefox.
The secound thing I discovered, is that the phone has more free ram, old Version round about 3,6GB, the B212 has 4,5GB free ram.
This are the first impressions, if i discover more, I let you know.

You download full OTA or OTA?
I did the Full OTA, but be carefull there are 2 Versions!
The Version with "PV" didn't work and almost bricked my Phone. I had to load an older Version thru recovery to get it back working.
The Version "FullOTA-MF" is working fine, I only had to wipe the cache and make an Factorydefault after updating, because the phone was in
a boot loop.
My Phone is running fine with the Version 212 and has now a way better Batterylife :good:

Ota would come from your Huawei updater in over a week or so. Just update it if you authorised.
Now I have Updated to Oreo :good:
Everything works fine, I have only one question:
The Phone is using the Treble Project (see screenshot).
Why is there only one partition, does this mean that fast Updates are not working?

You have to have 3 partition for treble.. And even tho Huawei said p10 plus supports treble it's not the case. Or maybe need to do full factory reset so new firmware will partition correctly im not sure

Don't continue downloading cause after you download it completely, it won't install. Cause it's not approved and it's not for honor 8 lite.

There is another version in firmware finder that is 321 and that is for our phone but it can't be installed cause it's not approved for installation.
These versions of oreo that are now on firmware finder are beta. Wait a little for the official stable version. It might be released soon. Maybe this week or next week

The latest version is 214 for our device. If you want to found the firmware for our device in firmware finder you need to do this.
First tap on the Add model button
Then search this: PRA-L21HC185
then tap on ok and you will see this model on the main screen of the app.
The firmwares in that section is for our phone.
The name is different but after you installed the rom,you'll see build number is still pra-la1c185.
Just before getting the update checked the firmware access
The latest version is 214 for now. I installed before and it was approved for installing but now it's not approved. I don't know why!
But you can install 211 if 214 is not approved for you too

Just before getting the update checked the firmware access
The latest version is 214 for now. I installed before and it was approved for installing but now it's not approved. I don't know why!
But you can install 211 if 214 is not approved for you too

Thats funny because usually I can get the update from firmware finder app faster . But i received b214 faster from system update. And I hope we get the Oreo soon
oreo update
how can i download approved Firmware from firmware finder plz tell me

Honor 8 EU model firmware B407

It looks like the July security patch has appeared in Firmware Finder. May be the EU will get Oreo at around August or September.
That sucks for sure
What happens if the update is not approved for installation and I download it through FF DNS/VPN and try to install it?
I didn't get even the B406.

There has been a security update for marshmallow way after nougat got released.
That may still happen with Oreo, oreo and nougat are not necessarily excluding each other IMHO.

Neither did I.
Last update that showed up on my phone before rebranding to L19 was the B405.
Why are Huawei/Honor so sloppy with their update distribution sometimes?
This seems really strange, I haven't even recieved B406 yet and Oreo is being released on another FRD-L09 model, but still they decide to release a new security patch-only update? Why couldn't they just pack it together with Oreo? :|

Guess they're just testing with the Russian L09, like they first did with China, and don't know when they'll release it in general Europe.
maybe because in Europe we are crybabies they want to be sure everything works fine
im still on 405 and its not a big deal, besides if you want to get oreo they 're many detailed guides to do so..
And what with gyro bug in B407?
just received B407 OTA
Uhmm... You sure?
Me too in croatia. Previously I manually flashed b406 through the firmware finder
Pure Honor 8
Cool. It is still not approved for me
Still not approved here, in Italy. Honor 8 (FRD-L09) No brand
