Really great thread, hats off to this.
I have one question. Is there any way to flash Lenovo k4 note via sp flash tool without locking bootloader. As, everytime I flash it via sp flash tools, the bootloader gets locked and I have to go through all the process to unlock it again. I thought of unticking preloader but was too afraid to experiment with this critical part (preloader sounds like some serious ****, haha).

Thank you, I guess this is the answer I was looking for. I was just affraid if unticking some files might brick the device but it seems like it doesn't.
And BTW, no problem with twrp replaced with stock recovery, it takes just a minute to flash twrp again.

It is a buggy touchpad, must be some moisture on the inside of the touchpad. I agree, go to the service centre.

Which ROM do you use? And what do mean by 'ROMs from many websites'? Explain your ROM flashing process in detail.
Hit Thanks if I Helped You!!!

Roms i meant stock roms. S152 and S200 S218 flashable roms. for Lollipop and Marshmallow. S152 is working fine but OTA update and manual Sp tool flashing and recovery flashing leads me to bootloop on 6.0 versions. I've downloaded many stock marshmallow S200 and higher from xda and other sites all gave me bootloop. with or without user data and cache flashing also. if bootloop is crossed phone never crosses android is upgrading thing.
Any leads are appreciated. TIA

As for ROM flashing process
1. Stock Recovery
- download .zip file
- rename it as update.zip, place it in internal storage
- go to recovery and update
2. Sp flash tools
- download rom files
- install drivers
- open sp flash tools locate scatter file
- select download and connect phone.

Use this S P flash tool method
- Download rom files
- Install drivers if install already installed then skip this step
- After install drivers go to phone settings>about phone and tap build number 7 times,go back to settings and enable usb debuging in devloper options.
- Open s p flash tool
- Select option in left uppar corner,there is download option availabe,click on it and there is One/two Da DL option available available based on your s p flash tool version.check these two option.
- Locate scatter file in downloaded folder
- Make sure all files are selected
- Select firmware upgrade,p ress download and connect switch off phone.
- After showing download ok then remove mobile and switch on phone.

Hello sorry for late reply.

[ROM][8779]Omnia 7 Light ROM v1.0 with USB Video Out

Hi there sorry to post at this part of the forum, i cant reply of some rules of xda in the developers rom, i hope this message will get placed in the right one by a moderater.
Thank you for the light rom, i realy like the idea of this.
I just flashed the rom and is looks working alright.
But i have 2 things.
1. Format mode on boot power+camera+vol down doesnt work with my device anymore, also its hard to get it in dfu download mode after flashing this rom. i must play with the keys.
2. For a realy clean rom i think its best to remove the custom background.
Thank you verry much! the first rom without any unwanted items.

1. Don`t know why. Works normal on my phone.
2. I will try to do that in the next version of ROM.
Thanks for the feedback!
Your welcome, thank you for the great work.
regarding the dfu mode, it wont work with your rom on my phone.
After i have installed a other custom rom it is working again.
I have a 16gb version. maybe thats the issue.

no need of screenshots
i dont think there is any change in ui. same stock ui without samsung bloatwares. for me it lag sometimes. i think thats because of no of apps i use. till now no bugs found.
problem solved..
Hello ..
Dear aapa, thank u for this great rom but seems u have missed to include SELinuxModeChanger app! .
I have been struggling for 3 days since I install this rom because of the strange behaviour if many applications, like Titanium backup, root explorer, xposed installer, WhatsApp & viber can't download any files & many others due conflicts of permissions, till I did install the app SELinuxModeChanger from Google play and change to permissive, then everything is working well now without any problems..
Any way, the rom so far is very lovable , handy, extra smooth , no lag or force close at all (exempt the Samsung account registration, which I have deleted the few Samsung stuff left in priv-app).. Google chrome working well,doesn't crash here,and the ram usage is very low compared to other kitkat roms (always have more than 700mb free ram with more than 150 applications I have been installed).
Here I will attach some screen shots for the rom.
Thank u so much.
solved..

Download this file http://preview.tinyurl.com/z3wwuyp. ( patched file)
Save to an easy located place.
Connect your computer to the tablet and start fastboot(volume up and down together and power button)should show fastboot starting.
Open a CMD window on your computer and type cd c:\ to get to just a c prompt.
Then type fastboot flash ESP This bit then should read the full location of the unzipped file that is patched.
An example like mine is fastboot flash ESP c:/adb/1050f-esp-patched.img , this is how I did mine and I have an unlocked bootloader and permanent TWRP

The files were originally made by ionioni and workdowg i believe and they work!! All the tutorials have been deleted for some reason so now all the rest of the users are either stuck at a boot screen or cant upgrade (like me).
 @corasman was bright enough to capture some of the files. He has saved my bacon at least for now.
Again, @all on lollipop - if you are stuck at a loop or cant upgrade flash the files in this post

So they work, but there's no proper tutorials to ensure that things are done properly, is what you're saying?
Also, the deletion/closing of those threads is baffling. Does anybody know the reason? Maybe the moderators can chime in.
I believe XDA rules say something about source code for files must be open source,and if I have read right ionioni infringed the rules.

In this thread . /general/flash-phone-flash-tools-t3307272. I messed up my system and ionioni really helped me out,maybe people can read enough to rescue their systems.
No probs Adrian dude... Thanks again...
Well for the tutorials, the original threads maybe closed but there is still valuable info there.
I read the first 15 pages of the boot-loader thread and realised I need a stock boot-loader as it kept coming up error when trying to installing the latest 256 update.
Hope all that are in peril recover quickly now

I now have full unlocked bootloader and TWRP with the latest upgrade.

Hi,
I have a P8 lite 2017 PRA-LX1 and want to install a custom rom or treble and I believe I need to get to oreo and EMUI 8 before I can progress.
I've installed many customr roms before but never on Huawei and only up to Marshmallow so been searching answers but not finding anything clear

I have installed TWRP via fastboot and can boot into it.
But after looking at the threads to install treble roms or pie roms it's not clear how to preoceed from here, can somebody please help!
Thanks in advance

Here you will find how to, it is not so difficult, basically you have 3 steps, at least it's what I did:
First: download update.zip (original firmeware for PRA, there is a link, it is russian but write in search bar PRA-LX1 and then yoy will get results, do not download OTA because for this method it does not work) and copy it to sdcard as update.zip
Second: nocheck.img (install from TWRP) and copy to sdcard
Third: TWRP and install nocheck.img to recovery partition
Fourth: TWRP open advanced, terminal and write this as follows:
echo --update_package=/sdcard/update.zip > /cache/recovery/command
reboot recovery
After reboot, oreo firmware is installed, you have to reinstall twrp (for oreo, the one you have now does not work). These are the steps I followed and it went fine for me, do it carefully and do not interrupt the process. Good luck, if you need help just let me know.

I'm now stuck, I have the updte.zip for my device, but the link to nocheck recovery is broken and I'm not having much luck finding it either Anyone have a copy I can use for PRA-LX1c432?
Also, what are the other files in the update - update_data_full_public.zip , update_full_PRA-L11_hw_eu.zip and update_full_PRA-L31_hw_eu.zip? I'm such a Huawei Noob

The only .zip you need is one about 1,7gb (I do not know what are the other zip files, I never used them).
I am trying to attach nocheck.img but I can not, send me an email by private message and I'll send it.

By the way, if you need some help I can tell you how I did it, it's tricky but it's not that difficult
Thanks a lot, you rock.
I am following this article https://www.xda-developers.com/huaw...e-android-oreo-update-project-treble-support/
Now that I have the file I can continue.

Hey @alopez_666 or @yannick82 would you mind to send me the nocheck.img as well please? The dropbox link above timed out.
Hi guys, can I please ask for that no_check_recovery.img? I'm struggling to bring back my phone from AEX9.0 ROM to stock Oreo...
Optional Solution
solved: finally I updated to EMUI 8 with "HuRUpdater_0.3.zip" which went quite simple. Sorry, can't post an external link while I'm to young at the forum
