How significant is the C432 bit? My current rom has C636 in that spot.
-EDIT- Never mind, found out that C432 is Euro FW and C636 is Asia/global. Can they be crossflashed?

Yeah I'd also like to know this, as I'm in Australia and have the C636 FW too.
Plus I just read a couple of posts about C432 FW having safetynet issues? Are you guys having any problems with it?

It's weird though, because my phone came with a UK charger, but doesn't have Euro firmware.
It started off at .109 when I powered it on for the first time, and received two OTA updates in the first day, bringing it up to .168
It also fails Safetynet and shows as not certified in the Play Store.
Awaiting my unlock code so I can rectify this.

Hi, you said:
"if you want to root with twrp:
1-GO TO FASTBOOT AND FLASH THIS TWRP LINK"

Ok, but, what is the command to do to install the file twrp_m20_pro.img ?
Thx

if you want to root with twrp:

1-GO TO FASTBOOT AND FLASH THIS TWRP LINK

2-RESTART YOUR DEVICE - fastboot reboot,UNPLUG THE CABLE AND PRESS VOL UP UNTIL BOOT ON TWRP

3 - >> Wipe > Format data
>> Hit home button and Reboot > Recovery
>> Download and copy RemoveEncryption-Mate20_pro.zip file in to sdcard folder (Internal storage). LINK
>> Flash RemoveEncryption-Mate20_pro.zip
>> Hit home button and Reboot > Recovery
>> Wipe > Format data
>> Hit home button and Reboot > Recovery
>> Reboot

TO GET ROOT :

-FLASH ON FASTBOOT ( fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk patched_boot.img , fastboot reboot ) DISCONECT THE CABLE AND PRESS VOL UP
L29
L09

when reboot the twrp its gone

if you want to use twrp,just flash twrp on fastboot without any steps.
The patched boot.img is for the Huawei Mate9. Someone have the correct link? Thanks :)
