Hello everyone! I have read almost a hundred threads and discussions about unbricking P9 Lite and none of them was my case. I have unlocked my bootloader and i can tell that by seeing the warning from huawei which says my device is not safe.
Okay, but the case is phone is stucked at Device is booting now and i dont have nothing to pick from because people can choose wrether to press power and continue to boot or hold volume up to go to recovery. But i can`t get anywhere because the phone just go straight to Device is booting now. I can`t get to fastboot, adb, erecovery, recovery or any kind of option instead of seeing Huawei logo when powering up and Device is booting now right after it. No sound from laptop when i connect usb and holding Volume down + Power. Nothing.
Any help would be really appreciated.
have you tried turning the phone on WHILE pressing those keys? volume up + power for recovery, or power down + power for fastboot?

Well, i updated to Nougat B336. It went all fine but it was slow. So i decided to downgrade to MM using oem-info after that flashing middle package and then MM. But in order to install these with Revolution Recovery you have to change data partition to f2fs than back to ext4 and then format data in order to be able to mount data. And then phone got bricked without any idea why. And then i tried numerous firmwares, extracting update packages flashing boot,cust and system. None of them made it. I had access to fastboot, recovery and emui recovery but recovies from huawei did nothing but to stop at 5% with package errors. Even ones from Huawei official website made exactly for VNS-L21 Dual Sim. The last thing i decided was to flash TWRP Meticulus because i thought partitioning will be better than Revolution but when i flash it i lost every access to this phone. No fastboot, adb, recovery, erecovery even dload\update.app on SD Card doesnt work. :good:
Drained battery in order to somehow make it to fastboot. No success. Even then when holding Vol+ + Vol- and Power i got to No battery symbol. When holding down Vol- + Power i got to Huawei logo and then straight to Device is booting now. If i just leave it as it is it goes to logo than Device is booting now... and nothing happens of course. Huawei got one of the worst support pages after Lenovo maybe. They are just useless

Well, previously i always got in fastboot when i`m connected to HiSuite and click on Restore device (Not supported model for restore! Blaaa) but now i can`t connect even when i`m there. Can someone send me only the usb drivers for the VNS-L21 because i don`t have trust to this HiSuite thing? :highfive:
C`mon guys give us some ideas. I disassembled this little beast take off battery put usb in my laptop and then boom same thing. Huawei logo straight to Device is booting now...
You have to install hisuite because it needs the right drivers to run. Moreover it is a good indicator to know if there is a link between them.

Yes, i do know it and yes i do have it installed. This was the first thing i did when i bought this phone. I reinstalled it and it does not make any change. But i think there`s something not exactly right with the connection between the app and the phone because there`s no sound when plugging the phone. That`s a pretty solid clue that something is not right.

you could've flashed oeminfo in revolution recovery and then use the update.app of mm, no need to format the data partition.
have you tried booting to fastboot while connected with usb? and if you check device manager while connected, can you find your device in there?

Yes, i tried it as i said in the previous replies, no i can`t see it in device manager because Windows doesn`t recognise it when i plugged it to the usb ports. I say doesn`t recognise because there is no sound when the phone is being connected and i hold whichever combinations there are for VNS-L21. Thank you for your suggestion if you have any ideas i will appreciate them :highfive:

As i said i`ve read a lot of posts and comments of random users of P9 Lite and all of them doesn`t work for me. We need something out of the box, because i think this is not something you see every day. And it will be usefull to everyone who owns P9 Lite. :good:

did you check device manager itself? no sound playing doesn't mean the device isn't showing up in device manager, it is possible it shows up but isn't recognized. if device manager doesn't list it i haven't said anything

I`ll try another PC thank you for that advice. Well last time i checked device manager and nothing showed up even after scaning for changes nothing shows up. Interesting part is even without battery when usb is plugged in there`s no connection between PC and phone.
Can be battery and empty.
Connect it to a wall socket for 2 hours.

Nope i tried it. Doesn`t work. Another pc doesn`t recognize it too. Same thing. Can`t get into anything just logo and then Device is booting now. I`m starting to lose hope.

I hope not to say stupidity.
So it makes see huawei logo. So it boots.
I think you deleted something at system.img.
So you have to take your time and make it go to fastboot and install recoverynougatb9, flash system.img b336, make it start again.
Hi everyone
I tried to updade my huawei nova CAN-L11C530B130 to CAN-L11C432B340
I think the copy/paste of the UPDATE.APP ****ed up beacause the transfer time was very short...Anyway the phone accepted the update but turned off after that.
Now I can't boot, no recovery, no download mode, not even a charging led light.
Please tell me there is a way besides RMA
Thank you very much :good:
Well, either there is no charge (try keeping it on charger for a few hours) or it is totally bricked based on what you said. If it is completely unresponsive there is really nothing you can do.
Boot loader doesnt start as well?
Thanks for your help
I tried an all night charching but It did not help, no boot loader either.
What about the version I had : CAN-L11C530, I don't find any results about it on the internet, strange right ?
When I plug the phone to my computer I get "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)"
You could try contacting Huawei support, their is a qualcomm flash tool. You need the tool and the rom to use it. I know it worked on the Nexus 5, but have seen nothing like it for us. I would try going to a shop and asking, but I do not know how viable that is for you.
Thank you wangdaning, it's very kind of you
I'm gonna leave the phone to the carrier who will send it to huawei.
I'm just surprised how easy it was to brick, I have a honor 8 and a mate 8 and it never happened.
I wonder if it comes down to it being a defective device. I have run circles of flashing on mine and it does not brick. I am running Lineage and even the build is not for my device. I have manually flashed partitions, wiped and reflashed partitions (in fastboot). I have made it unusable at times, but never bricked. It works fine now. Seems it might just be an unlucky bad unit you got. Hopefully you had all your stuff backed up and hopefully you get a unit that works well next time.
Hey
So I was flashing android 7.0 to an S8 and it completely died, this is how completely:
- No screen/LED/vibration motor
- No safety/recovery/download mode (and don't ask about button combos, I've tried them all)
- No USB recognition from device manager (not even as exynos in other devices, just nothing)
- USB jig does nothing
- It is however recognised by wireless chargers (but I doubt that has any real significance)
At this point my question is would a JTAG even work on it? Or is my only hope a complete motherboard replacement?
S8 Hard bricked

Jtag dead phone to life and rewrite IMEI
I had the same thing, sent it to Fonefunshop in England, they said they could fix it, the didn't even open it as discovered by the guys who fixed it and is necessary to use jtag.
Fonefunshop said eMMC chip was bad, which is not true, but that led me to search for someone to replace the chip. I found A2Z cellular in Ottawa, Canada. They got the phone to boot up, but IMMEI was null( I did this trying to flash back to stock after TWRP screwed up). They rewrote original IMEI , now phone works like new. These guys are amazing.
http://a2zcellular.com/
Thank you all for the advice.
But I have now managed to unbrick and reflash the firmware. khawarjaved's advice turned out to be what fixed it in the end.
That was close, nearly lost £30

I have been through that situation man.... So always ready to help, ??
Hi pros
I'm in kind of a similar situation....I think I flashed MY 950U PIE with wrong BL
This phone is dead....Doesn't boot...no download mode....No recovery mode....
When connected to pc....device manager Recognises device as QUALCOMM HS USB 9008
Any way to brig it back to life...?
Your phone is connected in edl download mod. It will accept special files which will allow it to boot to download mode and let you flash stock firmware
The tool used for this is emmcdl.exe
It has to come with phone specific files
No idea where to get it. Ask people here, those who root phones. They know.
My M3 was working perfectly. I put it to restart and then it didn't turn on anymore. It is now only recognized as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" on Windows. I opened the phone and with some magical combination (remove/connect flat cables from the battery and display, connect the USB cable, press volume keys and short the test points) it started in fastboot. So I was able to flash the "fastboot ROM". Unfortunately, on the next boot it still does not turn on normally. Has anyone succeeded in repairing the Poco M3? In Mi Flash is requested an authenticated account to flash through it, is it worth paying someone to provide the account? Does anyone have the contact of someone who makes cheap? Any help is welcome, thank you!

nothing yet. we need firehose to bypass miflash authentication. or drain the battery then press vol down + power for 10secs.

sorry, there's is no tutorial for this and it has a quite process. you just need to throttle the proc temperature of your phone board using hot blower or any device you have. while your phone is in high temp. both pin board and battery is in unplug hold vol down then put back the board pin and battery pin at the same time. it will vibrate and fastboot will be fine.
Guys this is my procedure to turn on the phone:
I can make it turn on Android after messing with the battery and sub-board cables but this is just a workahound, trying to turn it on normally through the power button always makes it turn on in edl mode
But opening the device voids the warranty, so anyone who has access to a repair center is better off asking for the warranty
What to do:
1. Disconnect the battery cable and the secondary board cable.
2. Connect charger.
3. Hold the power button.
4. Connect the secondary board cable and quickly connect the battery cable.
5. Release the power button when the device vibrates.
It doesn't always work the first time, you may need several tries to get it

Hello everyone, so here i am trying to flash a friend's a1000, but unfortunately, i'm unable to do so because when i try to enter the bootloader by holding the volume up key before plugging in the usb cable to start the process, it only connects to the computer for about 9 seconds, and then automatically disconnects, i get a coloured screen afterwards, and i would be forced to restart the device, i first suspected that it was the cable, but i was wrong, since i've already tried a bunch of cables, all with the same exact result, i also used 3 different computers, and i still got the same result, please respond if you have any idea.

you need drivers to flash it. i flashed mine in september 2021 and most drivers didnt work. i ended up getting drivers with the same name for a diffrent phone and the flash worked. so try doing that it might end up working. i dont how i did it but it was really hard

Do you guys still have the files?
I managed to get the proper drivers and the phone is seen by the computer and I manage to flash it , but the phone is completly dead after the flash .
The power button wont do anything, plugging it into the charger doesnt do anything, I can only reflash it by connecting it to the pc while holding the volume up & down buttons.
Checking on old forums, aparently there are two versions of the phone , single sim and dual sim.
Also the revision number seems to be important for some reason, so mines is dual sim , revision 61 .
I believe this was the firmware that was on it previously, although the phone remained stuck at the boot logo : a1000_usr_s29798_1511241708_sprd7731_ro , but i cant find it anywhere , so I flashed the one you guys had , but now the phone is a dead brick after the flashing ends . Nothing on the screen, no response from any of the buttons, just dead.

sorry, i deleted my lenovo a1000 files to focus on other phones. from what i have heard that issue is common with that phone. i know someone who flashed the firmware on their a1000 and got stuck in the same issue as you. i tried to help them unbrick it but it seems to be impossible. i think you need to do a board replacement if you want to use that phone again. also, i dont think that the phone revisions are that important cause i managed to get lenovo a1000m firmware on my lenovo a1000.
