FunkyHuawei P30 Pro Official Support Thread

[duraaraa]

This is the official support thread for FunkyHuawei on the P30 Pro.

FunkyHuawei is a paid service which provides tools and infrastructure which can be used to update or unbrick your P30 Pro.
Generally it's useful for updating to a version of your own choice rather than waiting for OTAs.

Today (26 April), P30 Pro support was added to FunkyHuawei via the HiSuite method (which can be found in the instructions page).
The below firmwares are available for installation, from the VOG-Global section.
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.109
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.121
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.122
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.124
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.131
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.136
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.140
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.153
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.156
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.161
VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.178


If your CUST is C636, C605, C185, C432, C10, or C431, your CUST will be kept the same.
If you have a different CUST number, it will default to C636.
If you previously installed and want to return to your old CUST number listed below, just install again.
(The above is updated as of 4/30)

Those having any issues with installations on the P30 Pro are welcome to post here.

Note that rebranding (changing the region from Chinese to International, for example) is not available at present. Bootloader codes are also currently not available at present.

Installation and unbricking are available via the aforementioned HiSuite method.

Choose from the VOG-Global section.
VOG-Global section works for any VOG-L29, VOG-L09, or VOG-L0C.

We've confirmed it works. Are you sure you don't have a pass on your account tied to a different phone?

None of the number are important for the P30 Pro. If it's VOG-L29 like yours is, or VOG-L09, or VOG-L0C, for any of the various variants, you can install from the LYA-Global section.

Last time for my mate 20 pro, I purchased credits. Was wondering if I subscribe now to the monthly or every 15 days plan, do I get access to download firmware or do I have still have to purchase credits to download? Thanks.

If you have an active subscription you do not need to buy credits. You can use the installation feature all you want during the validity of the subscription.

Okay sweet thanks.

Edit: Is the .140 file same as the OTA size ie +-500mb or is it full firmware and will it wipe my phone?

Thanks again

We've confirmed it works. Are you sure you don't have a pass on your account tied to a different phone?

i have a pass and 999 credits , it didn't wok on mate20pro and p30pro , i used eRecovery method

erecovery doesn’t work on emui 9 and later. You need to use hisuite method.

If you have a pass and install isn’t working in hisuite it’s likely tied to a different phone. One pass is tied to one phone.

 

[kinjx11]

how do i know what device i'm tied to ?

---------- Post added at 04:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 AM ----------

i also have a funkyshop purchase tied to my account which is why i have 999 credits

 

[trapcoder666]

stuck at 5% installing update on phone. Everything downloaded successfully but when it reaches the last part, hisuite stops and on the phones it shows installing update , 5% .

edit : re-did it and its fine now, updating. Will update back here shortly.

edit : update successful and am now on .140

So, in the future, will i still be able to receive OTA ?

Thanks @duraaraa

I'm on C185.
By going to C636 - I'm killing my OTA Function, Isn't it ?

Can't be sure. Huawei has changed the OTA process in the P30 series, so it's untested. It should probably be possible to go back to C185 using eRecovery though.

my p30pro was c185 , after updating using FH now it's running c636 software , everything is fine and working 100%

 

[wajeehuzkhan]

Will it void my warranty?

 

[duraaraa]

Will it void my warranty?

Generally, no. Bootloader remains locked, no reason for it to void the warranty. It's just installing an update package.

I seem to be stuck at the 5% installing as well. My VOG-L29 was purchased through FunkyHuawei and through email this morning I was told the subscription is active. When I log in I can select the firmware, everything seemed to work correctly installing HiSuite 9.0.2.301 and then running FHHiSuiteInstaller.exe. But when I try the System Recovery it always fails at installing system and leaves the phone showing "5% Installing Update".

Your currently selected firmware is VOG-LGRP2-OVS 9.1.0.140
You have 999 credits. You may install firmware.
You are on a pass which will expire 2024-04-26 07:22:09.418570 (GMT+9).
