Dear Forum Members,

Software version: 25.19.1416
Release date: 24 June 2020

HUAWEI

Software Brick: Load Factory Fastboot procedure now tries to put the device into factory mode without Test Point (without disassemble!)

Compatibility list: Kirin 980/710/970/960/etc..

Repair Boot*: as a result of software brick, after restart (hard reset) the phone remains bricked. Repair Boot can fix this but it needs factory fastboot loaded on the phone.

Model and Vendor/Country Change*: No need to Test Point, works on all phones, any CPU. Compatibility is not certain with latest firmware versions (without disassemble!).

Compatibility list: Kirin 990/810/980/710/970/960/etc.. (Kirin 990/810 devices, where older sw version available)

Please do not forget: both process able to use without Test Point & disassemble.

Huawei bugfixes:

USB Firmware Update bugfix when using version info override

* After Repair Boot and Model and Vendor/Country Change you MUST run USB Software Update or Repair Recovery (if available) on the device.
