Update from EMUI8 to EMUI9. Omnirom9 - VKY-L29

Hello fellows.
How can I update my VKY-L29, which is running Openkirin's EMUI 8-based Build OmniROM Pie Alpha 5.2, to EMUI9? So that I can update to OmniROM Beta 5 or so? HiSuite is not working.

Hi!
I would suggest booting in to recovery and running the recovery option to download to back to stock rom (This may or may not delete your data so always back up!). However first check from firmware finder if EMUI 9 roms have been released to your specific version so you're sure your model has EMUI 9 available now. If so once you're in the stock rom it should update you to EMUI 9 and you can continue flashing Openkirins EMUI 9 roms. Please be aware Openkirins suggested Magisk installation does not work on EMUI 9. However there is another way to flash magisk to EMUI 9 roms.
Thanks!
