📂 Create a folder named dload in the root of the SD card.
📁 Copy the downloaded UPDATE.APP file into the dload folder.
🔄 Insert the SD card into your Huawei phone.
🔁 Turn off the phone. Then press and hold Volume Up + Volume Down + Power together until the update starts.
✅ Wait for the process to complete automatically.

Note: This method is limited to phones that support SD card-based updates. If your phone doesn't respond, try Method 2 or 3 below.

⚙️ Method 2: Flash Huawei Using SP Flash Tool + DA/Auth Files (With Test Point)

This method is ideal for Huawei devices powered by MediaTek (MTK) chipsets that require authentication.

🧰 Requirements:

SP Flash Tool (Latest Version)
Firmware in scatter format
DA and Auth files (specific to your model)
USB cable
Test Point (to enter flashing mode)

🔌 Test Point Instructions (for Dead or Locked Phones)

1. Open the back cover of the phone carefully.
2. Find the golden test point on the motherboard (search your model’s test point image).
3. Short the test point with tweezers while connecting USB cable to enter EDL or preloader mode.

🛠 Flashing Steps:

Launch SP Flash Tool.
Load the scatter file from the firmware folder.
In the “Options” tab, enable DA DL All with Checksum.
Go to Download tab, select "Download Only" mode.
Click Download, then connect phone using the test point.
SP Flash Tool will start flashing the firmware. Wait until “Download OK” appears.

Important: Use correct DA/Auth files to avoid errors like "Authentication required".

💻 Method 3: Flash Huawei Firmware Using QFIL via EDL Mode (Qualcomm Models)

This method is for Huawei devices with Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets that support 9008 EDL mode.

🔧 What You Need:

QFIL Tool (Qualcomm Flash Image Loader)
Firehose programmer file (prog_emmc_firehose_*.mbn)
Firmware in .xml or .mbn format
EDL Test Point access

📌 EDL Test Point Procedure:

1. Open your phone and locate the EDL test points on the board.
2. Short the test points while connecting the USB cable.
3. In Device Manager, confirm your device shows as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008.

🚀 Flashing Process:

Open QFIL and choose “Flat Build”.
Load the firehose .mbn file and rawprogram.xml & patch.xml from firmware.
Click Download.
Flashing will begin and finish in a few minutes.

⚠ Caution: Flashing wrong firehose file can brick the phone. Always double-check your files.
