DC-Huawei Converter (beta)

That seems to be going well, but it couldn't get the phone into download mode, and the phone got into a boot loop. I managed to get the phone into Huawei recovery mode, but it can't find anything to recover to. So right now the phone is broken, not working at all, which isn't ideal. I don't know how to proceed from here, but I'll do some searching to see. Advice very welcome.

UPDATE: I hit a button to continue, it said "updating and stayed at 5%", so I hit go on the unlocker tool again. It seems to be trying to install the update again - it's up to 22%.

UPDATE 2: It seems to be working now. The trick seems to be when you get prompts do the "standard" action it says not the "to recovery" action. Then when the phone is saying "apply update" you have to start the DC Converter tool again.

All in all, a slightly more stressful process than I would prefer, but it seems to have upgraded my phone from the C900 version that hasn't gotten updates since March 2016 to a reasonably new version. Thanks for the good tool :)

Nice to hear it works, have not tested it myself. And it is still a Beta tool so be aware.

I just have a question , after debranding , can I directly put the b504 full oem for l19c432 and flash it without going through the different update hops? or does it have to be on b136 stock after debrand?

Hey, so I know that it's an older topic and covered my subject a year or so ago, but I've faced a problem. I've successfully saved my phone from a loop (my problem stated in this thread) , but now I'm stuck on EVA-L09C900B182 and I'm not receiving any OTA updates, even HiSuite says that my phone is up to date. What should I do? I've tried a few updates via both the dload and FF method, but none of those which were recommended by Firmware finder worked (stuck on 5%, incompatibility error). Do I HAVE to switch to something like c432 to be able to update?
