huawei p30 ele-l29

[Android Central Question]

hello i bought in auction a p30 ele-l29

version shows 9.1.0.102 and build C900 with no updates available

what is C900 and why i cant find any details about that version? is some kind of test/sample review model?

do these phones get updates or are stuck on custom version?

C900 indicates that the device has been cross flashed using the wrong region firmware . Example the device could have been a region c636 Asia Pacific and someone flashed a c432 region western europe onto it prior to you buying it. I believe with the c900 status that you current have as your Cust code then the device will no longer be able to ever get any future updates. You may be able to update using the "dload" method but I'm unsure you'll need to research this. What makes matters challenging is that there device is also bootloader locked.
