Is it possible to downgrade using the dload folder and stock recovery or do I need to use adb or some other way?
there's a thread for that in the "p8 lite general" forum
short answer is: if you have a C432 then yes, if C02 then no, if other have to try
In general, for everything but C432 you need an unlocked BL

Hello,
While searching for updates for the huawei P9 Lite model VNS-L31C185, i found a new OTA update files, the VNS-L31C185B140, so after download the OTA update ( not the full update ) with about 500MB size et unzip the file, i just found other files inside the zip:
cust.new.dat
cust.patch.dat
cust.transfer.list
system.new.dat
system.patch.dat
system.transfer.list
update.app
So my question is how to install those files because when i try only with the update.app, the version number did not change ( actually i have the VNS-L31C185B130 update ) !
i install full B140 update and it is working
Hello, any link to download the full B140 update? Thanks!

As I understood, C900 is global and you won't ve recieving OTA so you have to download it manually. I'm also on C900 and I had to manually download and update on last two builds.

I've downloaded this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3497516
(Link in the first post)
Make folder "dload" on your SD card and unzip the content there (.app file and folders must be in dload folder itself, not in any sub folder)
Go to dialer and type in *#*#2846579#*#*
Select Software Upgrade > SDcard upgrade
That's it.

Hi,
Just recently bought this phone for spare/workphone. I have installed Android 7.0, model number is L31 and fw version is C432B336.
Im not so experienced in Huawei world and i would like know what other rom version can i flash to this phone? Are all okay as long as its for L31? Or should it always be C432 variant?

anything that works on the l31, c432 means it's the european variant
So all L31 variants work? Or is there differences in lte bands lets say like 432 and 185 variants ?
You can flash whatever rom version you want.
As most of us, we've installed vns-l31c185/c636b360(latest version of Nougat) and we don't have bugs or problems.
No matter what oem info it has (oem info is the Variant/region of the phone, like c432 is for Europe, c185 is for mena , c636 asia i guess, correct me if I'm wrong) The version will be compatible with your phone.
I don't know if there is differences between oem info of each region , personally i installed c185b360+ the additional package of c432b328 over c432b161,( i was in mm and went to nougat) and i dont have problems with mobile data.
@simo255
Thanks for the answers. Like i said i currently have rooted L31c432b336 and revolution recovery.
If i want to update b360 should upgrade through dload method or twrp?

Via twrp you can flash nougat without changing oem info. If you want to update via dload you must have the oeminfo of the rom you want to install.( So if you are on C432 you can t flash C185 Ffirmware via dload because you havr c432 oeminfo) but be carefull..there arr lots of bricked devicea.

Sorry to rub it, but I want to be sure because I already had troubles when upgrading to nougat.
But....so in twrp I can just flash the bigger (abt 1.2gb) file and its should work? No need to flash second smaller zip?
I have had Sony devices past 3 year and I have used to flash those

Ive ashed the second file and it gaves me errors
Like i did , flash the bigger size and the additional package, take a look at my thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/nougat-official-firmware-t3512932
I will follow simo225's instructions.
Now I'm beginning to wonder what is the differences between smaller zip and additional zip, because I thought they were the same :laugh:
Hello everybody,
I have a P9 Lite VNS-31 here. It was a Demo Device with Demo Content on it. I have flashed it with dload folder with the package "L31C432B160. The Democontent is away, but device shows me Version "VNS-L31C900B160". I need the C432 Cust. What can I do?
Thanks anyway. I will spend a Coffee for a walk through.

You flashed the ROM without changing the OEMinfo beforehand. You need to download the toolkit which you can find in the development section of P9 lite here on XDA, then unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and flash the OEMinfo for C432 (you can find it on HTCmania, search on Google for "volver de Nougat a MM"). After that, you flash the C432 firmware with the 3 buttons method and have a C432 device.
Hi, recently I tried to upgrade my P9 lite to Nougat using Firmware Finder app. I downloaded and installed the B361 version but it was all buggy so I decided to do a rollback to MM. After doing the rollback I got a C900B160 version.
Is this C900 version a problem? Should I change it to C423?
Also, why was the B361 Nougat so buggy? Did I do something wrong?

if you flashed rollback package its ok to get that. just put marshmallow CxxxB161 ( Cxxx- means your number C432 C02 etc.. ) then with 3 buttons method flash marshmallow and you are good to go.

I already flashed the MM and it is still a C900 version, I downloaded it from official emui website as I remember.

You need to flash oeminfo and custom.bin from fastboot .( Your bootloade needs to be unlocked. ) You can check huawei tool thread . There you will find what you need)

Hello. I have Huawei p9 lite build namber: vns-L21C10B160
I made a mistake and installed wrong firmware: vns-L21C10B360 from firmware finder.
Can someone help me to downgrade to vns-L21C10B160 ?
Hello,
I see you are new here on XDA, and the fist thing that i will say to you:
Read before posting!
There are multiple guides how to downgrade, even one that I personally wrote here.
Go to post number 5, there is a guide under EMUI 5 how to downgrade.
The only thing that you will need to change is the firmware you download. You will download C10B160 for VNS-L21 using Firmware Finder for PC instead of the C432B160 linked in the first post.
