Huawei P9 (EVA Series)

Huawei P9 (EVA Series) Official Firmware Guide: Safe Downloads & Flashing for EVA-L09, L19, L29, AL00, AL10, TL00, CL00, DL00

Struggling with bootloops, lag, failed upgrades, or persistent errors on your Huawei P9? Properly restoring your EVA-series device requires the exact model/region firmware and caution with the dload flash process—this is especially true for Chinese variants, Latin America, and EMUI version jumps. Below you’ll find the most complete, region-verified downloads for every submodel and a concise safe flashing guide based on real P9 user issues and years of community feedback.

⚠️
CRUCIAL WARNING: Never cross-flash between EVA-L09, L19, L29, AL00, AL10, TL00, CL00, DL00—different hardware (single/dual SIM, region LTE bands) and strict CUST/C-code locks will hard-brick most models. Only install firmware matching both model and region code (“About Phone” and firmware filename). Latin America, China and Europe use different partition layouts. Board/software packages (for repair) are only for device unbrick, not normal updates.
“Software Install Failed” and FRP errors = wrong firmware, baseband, or update method. Use only high-quality SD cards and never interrupt updates!

Always match your phone’s model (About > Phone), region/C-code, and Android version before selecting a firmware below. Use board dumps and service packages only for complete device unbrick purposes, not routine upgrades!

Before You Begin ⚙️

  • 💾 Backup Data: Flashing with dload wipes all user data; backup everything important.
  • 🔋 Charge to 60%+ battery before flashing, never interrupt power!
  • 💻 Use a freshly-formatted, true 4–32GB microSD card (FAT32) — corrupted SDs cause “Software Install Failed” errors.
  • 🧩 Check firmware region and submodel: EVA-L09 ≠ L19 ≠ L29 ≠ AL00 ≠ TL00 ≠ CL00 ≠ DL00.
  • ❌ Never force-flash another C-code or baseband (even if build number looks “close”).

📱 Quick Flashing Guide (Dload Method, All EVA Series)

  1. Extract ZIP/rar until you find the dload folder and/or UPDATE.APP. Do not modify contents.
  2. Copy the whole dload folder to the root of a FAT32 microSD card.
  3. Insert SD card, power off your P9.
  4. Enter update mode by pressing Volume Up + Volume Down + Power and holding until “Updating…” appears.
  5. Wait for completion—first boot may take several minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1. Can I use EVA-L09 firmware on EVA-AL00/TL00/L19?
No; P9 submodels have unique hardware and software partitions. Cross-flashing will brick or disable SIM/LTE/cameras.
Q2. Why does the dload method fail, or give “Software Install Failed”?
Most often, this is because of a mismatch in C-code, model, or a corrupted/incompatible SD card. Reformat, redownload the correct package, and use the exact variant’s firmware.
Q3. Can I use board dumps or unbrick images for normal updates?
No—these are for hardware repair, not routine upgrades; using on a working device may cause data loss or persistent errors.
Q4. What’s the best way to identify my P9’s correct C-code and model?
Go to Settings > About Phone; or dial *#*#2846579#*#* to enter ProjectMenu for software info, region code (C605, C432, etc.) and detailed model.
