Root/Updates/Rebranding/Unbricking - Official FunkyHuawei Support Thread for Mate 10
- Thread starter duraaraa
- Start date
No, nothing was necessarily wrong with it. Sometimes we remove old versions to make room for new versions.
Everything on FH is original firmware made by Huawei.
Since you don't need to unlock BL, warranty would not be void.
We've added support for BLA-L29 C721 -- the Mate 10 Pro Porsche Edition.
If you want to rebrand your mate 10 pro to porsche edition, you can use FHRebrandTool. Choose BLA-L29 then manually enter porsche/normal for the branding, and otherwise follow the normal instructions.
The advantage to rebranding to the Porsche edition is that it's sold throughout Europe and Asia, so it will potentially have wider support for carrier features in those regions, as opposed to just either Europe or Asia. It also, obviously, has different themes and so on which, depending on your taste, you might like.

You can use FunkyHuawei eRecovery method. It's likely to work in your case.
If that fails (it might. depends on what you did as root.) you can use the unbrick tool, then use HiSuite to install the appropriate firmware afterwards. But I think it's best to try eRecovery first, because it may work, and it's cheaper.
Anyway, this is another example of how easy the device is to brick. It's why I really recommend that people don't root the phone for daily usage.
Google Now missing after firmware update
Hello everyone,
I just rebranded my Mate 10 AL00 to L29, and when the rebranding process finished, I had Google Now instead of HiBoard. This was before updating to 8.0.0.125 with HiSuite. When I updated to 8.0.0.125 with HiSuite, Google Now disappeared and HiBoard came back; I am not sure if more Google apps went missing too. I have one credit left and I would like to spend it knowing that a second firmware update will bring the most Google apps back. So, will it?
Thanks in advance!

Did you do a factory reset? Is the correct version showing in the About Phone page?
No, I didn't factory reset and the correct version is showing up - ALP-L29 8.0.0.125(C636)
Updating from 115 to 126 on the Mate 10 Pro significantly improved web browsing performance.
JetStream score went up from ~40 to ~57.
Now web browsing performance is on par with the Oneplus 3.

Is the Black Friday sale for credits still on? if so how do we access that in Credits section?Took advantage the FunkyHuawei black Friday offer.
@duraaraa Also my model is ALP-L29C636, what's the latest firmware for this model (currently on .115) and are the any other models that are firmware compatible?
Thanks.
Email FunkyHuawei support for their black Friday offer. Latest firmware for that model I think is 125
I didn't get Google Now back
Google now is model dependent from what i've read, AL00 gets Google Now and L29 gets Hiboard. wouldn't be too difficult to mod that in after root or a custom rom.
It's no longer Friday
All ALP can be rebranded to other ALP. But you are on the best version for fast updates.
The latest is 125.

8Dear FunkyHuawei, instead of complaining to Mega about copyright for stuff you don't own, why don't you explain here on XDA how you change device's IMEI,how you pull sensitive information from your customers without warning or permission, and how you make use of other people's work in your software, without credit or anything?
This is the proof FunkyHuawei is just a greedy person, a wolf disguised in a sheep.
P. S. Don't ask me to edit this post as you do with others when they post information that you don't want to be seen, like the DNS redirection to stuff that you don't own copyright.
This won't end here,Funky!6This is the official FunkyHuawei support thread.
FunkyHuawei is a (mostly) paid service which allows you to do the following:
1. Install the latest system software, even before it's released by OTA.
2. Install beta/prerelease system software, without needing to be a beta tester.
3. Recover a bricked phone.
4. Rebranding / Change the region of your phone (China -> Europe, for example, to get Google and so on.)
5. Enabling dual-sim features on single-sim phones.
6. Root your EMUI 8 phone, even with stock recovery (This feature is free)
You do not need to unlock your bootloader, or void your warranty to use the service. (except the free rooting feature)
To find FunkyHuawei, please Google it. Or you can find a link to the service as well as our rebranding tool within the following XDA Portal article.

Well... There are ways around "unlocking" phone, which both FH and DC uses.
And they won't share this as it's bad for their business.
I will however chime in on the IMEI part.
In the FHRebrandTool and P20 single to dual tool you have oeminfo files already included.
These are named fhmo.lib in the Rebrand tool and Systeminfobackup in the P20 single to dual tool.
I'm guessing they are then edited to fit your phone. (They are dumped from ALP-TL00, if you open them in a hex editor and search for ALP.)
And we also have m10l.lib and fhp2m.lib. These are TWRP in disguise, with an all black theme and a white text. (And since they have FBE decryption I'm guessing they are the TWRP from zxzO0O)
You can check this by unpacking using Android Image Kitchen.
But after editing and flashing fhmo.lib manually to oeminfo I got the same IMEI, IMEI1 and MEID as others who used this to rebrand, though only in fastboot but this affects the ability to unlock bootloader using your old unlock code if your phone should be locked again.
(bootloader) IMEI: (redacted as this belongs to someone)4577
(bootloader) IMEI1: (redacted as this belongs to someone)0300
(bootloader) MEID: (redacted as this belongs to someone)2050
Edit: all it does is flashes twrp to your erecovery_ramdisk partition using slock, as it can't flash that otherwise.
Unlocks bootloader if it's not unlocked already.
It then modifies the included oeminfo and flashes to your device using adb.
That meaning you will end up with a different IMEI, IMEI1 and MEID in Fastboot as it doesn't do anything to your own oeminfo. It doesn't even back it up.
After this you're forced to use HCU to either get a new unlock code or change your imei/MEID back to your original ones.
