quotation from post #4

Unless You have speciall rollback firmware (like the one listed on funky that brings you back to 156) do no try to downgrade. Most likely it won't work or in worst case you'll brick your device.

Hi, pls how do I prepare the files from ff? Do I place them as they download on the flash drive? Or any renaming?

https://androidhost.ru/search.html isn't loading up for me.

Guys please. Firmware provided by androidhost.ru is NOT the same as the one downloaded from firmware finder.
You cannot simplye replace files and make it work.

When it comes to 157 - I've just downloaded 3 firmwares from androidhost.ru and in none of the downloaded packages was even mentioned it was a rollback version, I really don't know where this information come from.

Questions regarding how to are already replied in this thread. Do some research.

No offence but I wouldn't try to downgrade using unknown method. You can end up with brick.

Thank you very much for this. So as it turns out, this time I did everything correctly, but the error message is different, it is telling me "Incompatibility with current firmware. Please download the correct package." Any ideas ? I'm a bit lost there :confused:

Sorry bro. No idea. I guess we'll have to wait for proper service firmware.

Firmware 157 is aparently not official rollback version. At least not the one you can get from androidhost.ru. I don't think this method works with Pie. Sorry mate.

WAIT, what if it have something to do with Dual and single SIM ? Because sole firmwares are made for single and others for dual ?

You can download the firmware for your phone. Extract the UPDATE.app, from there take:
Kernel.img
Recovery_ramdisk.img
System.img
Flash them using fastboot and your device should boot up.

    How did you flash firmware via usb otg? Could You please link tutorial?
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    I didn't find any guide. I was in fact guided by Mr. oslo83 in a telegram group https://t.me/flashing_huawei

    The process is very simple. I will try to reproduce the steps I followed as under :-

    1) Download the correct firmware for your device according to your region from https://androidhost.ru/search.html and extract it. (Note :The downloaded firmware must be of the same build number installed or superior bcoz downgrading can hard brick your device)

    2) After extraction you will find a folder named "dload" (This is our concerned folder, pay attention!)

    3) Inside the 'dload' you will find one zip file named 'update_sd', extract its content within the dload folder but keep the un-extracted zip also as it is.

    4) Apart from 'update_sd.zip' you will also find two subfolders inside 'dload'.
    In my case the two subfolders were '... 'update_sd_CLT-L29_hw_eu' & ''update_sd_CLT-L09_hw_eu'

    5) Since my model was CLT-L29 therefore I deleted the subfolder named 'update_sd_CLT-L09_hw_eu'

    6) Now rename the subfolder "update_sd_CLT-L29_hw_eu" to "CLT-L29_hw_eu" and on opening it you will find a same named zip inside. Like before extract its content within the subfolder and also keep the zip file intact'

    7) That's it. Your 'dload' folder is now ready to be transferred to the USB drive for flashing.

    8) Attach your OTG-USB to your device and restart your device. While restarting keep pressing Volume UP & DOWN key simultaneously. Your phone will now enter into dload mode and will start flashing after verifying firmware.

    9) Bingo! you have now fully working stock rom. (Bootloader locked, FRP Unlocked, E-recovery functional again)

    Note: Before doing this operation make sure your USB drive is perfectly working and exFAT formatted. You can check your drive by H2testW on windows. In my case my first USB drive was faulty and that's why dload was giving me errors.

    Hi, Please help me, My P20 PRO CLT-L29 is bricked during re-branding. FRP is locked and boot-loader is re-locked. I am stucked at recovery. Factory reset from recovery finishes successfully but still the device doesn't boot up. E-recovery shows "gettting package info failed." Tried DNS e-recovery method through firmware finder but the DNS is not working!
    Is there any way to unbrick my device?

    FINALLY SOLVED by flashing the firmware files through dload method via USB- OTG. You can search and download firmware files on https://androidhost.ru/search.html

    Feel free to ask if you face any difficulties.

    Hi I've just made my own attempt and it eventually worked like a charm. only one thing: In my case those subfolders name were CLT-L29_hw_eu and CLT-L09_hw_eu. It's important not to rename them. (I removed L09 as my model is L29) Firstly I renamed it to update_sd_CLT-L29_hw_eu and software update failed. I restored then the original name (and also deleted meta-inf folders) and volia worked like a charm :)!

    *Once again thank You very much for Your help. It can be life saver in future :)
