Huawei P8 Lite 2017 Retail Mode Unlock?
 

Hi,

I recently bought a second hand Huawei P8 Lite 2017, after using it for a while I noticed that it is a retail mode phone.

I basically tried most things, like unlocking bootloader, rooting ect. to remove retail mode, but I seem to have come to a dead end.

Eventually someone from GSM-Forum pointed me to a possible Region "Demo Mode" change using a HCU tool.

I would like to ask, what is exactly a HCU tool, and could anyone point me in the right direction to convert my Retail Mode phone to a normal europe phone?

P.s. if anyone knows, once out of retail mode, will it also remove the retail mode app?

Thanks

Customization file when converting P8 lite 2017 demo
 

Hi,

I'm trying to follow the tutorial on the hcu-client website, to convert phone region from demo to Eu. The phone model is P8 Lite 2017 PRA-LX1.

The problem is, it asks for a customization file in the tutorial, but I don't know where I can find that file.

Once I know how to do it, I want to buy some credits to convert the phone from demo to EU.

Thanks.

Thats actually my thread XD but thank you.
