P9 lite - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Hello .. Good evening!
First of all, a merry Christmas to all, as a frequent follower of your activity, I decided to contact to see if I can get extra help in this small big problem.
In the wanderings of the android, last week I dedicated myself to route my P9 lite, it went well, until I tried to flash the leak of android 7 to my phone, as expected it went bad, so I can not get past the initialization until the The problem is not there, it's because I can not flash again because the bootloader has closed again or through the command line, since I can not start the bootloader Phone to authorize USB debug at this time is serving Pisa papers, any tips? I've tried everything, but no positive results!
Best regards,
Ricardo

You must unlock it again, and flash the stock recovery of NOUGAT and use the 3 buttons method

Bootloader

Hi all,
Thinking about this phone, what is bootloader like, unlockable? Can fastboot be accessed?
Looked all over for info, most Chinese forums are bashing the phone, but the reason is not clear to me (seems mostly joking that it is just a knock off of the Nexus they produced). Chinese is not my first language, that is probably most of the problem.
I am interested in getting some development going on here, but I need to know if it is worth the trouble even trying. Huawei does release source, but it is really not easy to find. Also, source for this phone seems to not be released yet. If you google "huawei open source" you get some sources, but not for this device. If anyone can point me in a better direction I would appreciate it.
I followed step 1 of this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=68280798 to get my bootloader unlock code.
I haven't been able to find a version of TWRP for this phone yet and KingoRoot hasn't been able to achieve root either ?

You might try this for root: http://www.huaweishuaji.com/112.html
Supports many other Huawei devices, but I cannot guarantee as I have never used it, so use at your own risk. There are also some Chinese guides for unbricking out there. It involves putting the stock image onto the external SD card and running a flash from the phone. Seems it would be fairly easy to build TWRP for the the device if there was a little more info about it, such as partitions. Unfortunately, I do not have the device and need to upgrade my PC before I can start building anything again.
Bored today, so been digging. Seems it would be fairly easy to port the zenfone 3 twrp over, as the specs are similar.
I can't try to build as I need to upgrade, and don't have the phone to test anyway.
Here is the git, looks like only a few changes to make: https://github.com/shakalaca/android_device_asus_ze520kl
Here is a link with how to flash the zenfone: http://www.asus-zenfone.com/2016/10/how-to-root-asus-zenfone-3-ze520kl-and.html
If it was me I would give it a go booting the z017d one, but make sure you "fastboot boot filename.img" and not flash. I would take the risk, but not saying anyone else should.
Not going to have anything to build with until around Christmas, so hopefully someone can give it a go building for the phone. I might get the phone around Christmas too, lets see how development goes.
can anyone try to load the twrp from p9 lite? The hardware specs are just as much the same
"fastboot boot recovery recovery_twrp.img"
maybe it works...
It's a no go booting either of those recoveries. Each flash while successful, ends in a boot loop.
I also don't have the time right now to dedicate to build TWRP from source.

Mine was bricked after trying the KingoRoot. Any chance I can unbrick it somehow?
P/S: Yes I am an idjit because I didn't make any kind of backup. :crying::crying:
Seems the Huawei unlock code generator is down. I entered my phones data, but the unlock code never appears. I only get an error message when I enter wrong data (i.e., CAN-L11 instead of HUAWEI CAN-L11), so seems the data is validated. When did you create your code, @wangdaning?

Don't have the phone, I think an earlier poster did get an unlock. I was speculating about what might be possible.

Sorry, my fault. thisisMZ1 was the lucky guy with the unlock code.
@thisisMZ1: did you try to boot the image without flashing it first? Don´t know if that makes a difference, but one never knows.
For the unlock code, I got an unhelpful reply from the support team ("please use the form provided on..."). My replies on this haven´t been answered yet, so I´m waiting... Will keep you updated.

Hi again,
I managed to unlock the bootloader: I created the Huawei ID on the wron (Asian) website. I created a new ID via the German website and was able to use the website for unlocking code with the new ID.

Wonder if it is only for the nova and not the nova plus. I did not make it and have neither phone to test, just passing it along. Unfortunately, they seem to have not used github.
Does anyone have a link to the factory recovery.img?
I flashed the Recovery to the Nova (not the plus) and I got exactly the same error. If I try to flash the superSU, I got a error that it couldnt Mount data and after a Reboot the root doesnt work.
I guess their could be several variants of the phone, which does not bod well for hopes of development.
Something new?
The chinese recovery boots but has problems to mount the partitions.... Its for the CAN-L01 and on my CAN-L11 is a different fstab. I have not the skills to compile a working one.

Update p8 lite build B183 rooted + fashify 1.9.2 installed to mashmallow

Hi,
Tried and see any solltion, but couldn't find it so here i am to ask. I have an rooted p8 lite ale21 B183 and have installed flashyfy 1.9.2. Every time i try to upgrade local etc. It reboots and does not install. It shows me winteam and then i reboot into system..

Thx
Toke me while searching, I tried a lot based on what was already mentioned in the forum. To come back at the end that I all - as you mentioned - stock recovery, i thought it was some kinda rom. Unrooten was the point, I had used king root. After back to factory settings, I thought it was removed.
But through supersu I finally saw that this was not, took me a while to find out. Then I could just update via ota. No more errors in fastboot / recovery, etc.
I had underestimated the importance of unrooten, but taught me a lot. Thanks for your comment!

M9 Users WARNING !!! DEAD,Killed MATE 9

Hello everybody. Today, i managed to kill my MATE 9.
In short :
MHA-L09C435B156
I wanted to update to a newer fw. Used on forum Guide for debranding,changed oeminfo to c636, flashed with offline_update ,dload method.
It failed at 31%. Tried to fastboot flash boot,userdata,system, fastboot ok,but still bootloop.
I had no twrp full backup.
So i tried this killer method:
Unpacked Update.app with huawei firmware extractor. Created a flashable zip.Flashed in twrp. At the end,i got errors that /system; /product ; /vendor, could not be mounted.
Rebooted the system, ignoring the 'no os installed' warning.
And since then, mate 9 no sign of life.
More details?
Battery was around 45% when started playing with firmwares
Kept power button for 30sec-1 minute,nothing
Plugged charger, usb,nothing
Disassembled the phone,disconnected battery (measured it first,and it was at 3.91v - every phone needs 3.7v to start up),reconnected battery,nothing.
In usb,no message,or sound of device connected.
So,it is really dead.
SO:
Don't make flashable zip with Firmware Extractor Tool.
Anyway, any place to buy Mate 9 Motherboard?
Oh, this is sad. Where did you read to do so?
We have functional guides. They work different.
I guess this what you did, may be similar to that what happened to Luca (shield Rom) when flashing dts.img.
He send the device to Huawei and got a new one. Maybe you are lucky, because this can also happen due to a manufacture error.
My device: Mate 9 superroot, Mediapad X2 GEM 701->703 B212 KangVIP (AJ mod)
well, since there are few methods to flash mate 9, i had that 5 second idea, to use that feature in this tool.
about getting another one..no warranty. bought it second hand but sealed box.no chance to get another one.
when i have time,i will try to revive it. i work in a gsm repair shop, so i think there could be few tools capable of reading mate 9 emmc
only thing i can think of to fix it is fh, im really surprised no one has found a way to spoof huawei servers to push firmware over erecovery.
can you get into erecovery? (button up + power, when vibrates, let go of power, or button up + down + power)
@Monster.Kali,
As @virtyx stated, erecovery may be an option. Also, if you are able to connect to Huawei HiSuite, it may be a second option.
no,it doesn't make nothing.
no erecovery
no fastboot
no recovery

Really?
That's amazing.
these phones are a total waste, the partitions are stupidly relying on each other. you cant even restore from within TWRP without the entire phone breaking.
well,i had all huawei mate models since first one,until mate 9.
i was happy with them
but this one....
huawei service center in my country, finaly accepted to fix it if i agree to pay, due to not having warranty.
i wait them to receive it, so we'll see.
they said they are able to reflash it,some factory method,without changing the main board.
good !

Sir, i want to ask you, because i think you know more things than any of us about Huawei phones / firmwares / bricks
Would have been any chance to fix my hard brick mate 9 at home?
Thank you in advance
And many thanks for the others that tried to help me. Thank you all for your time.

If you plug it into the USB port of a computer and check device manager, and nothing happens, then no. You can't fix it.
ok, nothing happened when plugging in. so i'm lucky that huawei accepted it for fixing
thank you, sir
e-recovery doesnt work either way for mate 9. try holding vol down + power, while plugged into usb 3 port (not sure why usb2 doesn't work for this in vmware) but then use the hisuite.
One word @op and other pro members can I flash twrp and then phh for root? And then install custom rom.
I have warranty, in Samsung there is knox counter which detects and warranty void, is here is the same case likewise? Can I flash stock fw if dont like the custom rom.. @Tkkg1994 he is very awesome developer and also a best of the best person I know who tried his lvl best to answer and solve the each n everyone's problem but he left this device, hes working on S7/S7E.
I have attached my device info pic

Don't ever flash anything from huawei extractor.
I broke my device twice with this method. First I was so stupid and created a flashable zip of ALL partitions available on the firmware dump (my aim was to provide a full stock upgrade package with TWRP method). Well didn't end so well, my mate 9 was dead. Like dead forever. I sent it back and told them it suddenly didn't start after all. Well they couldn't fix it, couldn't check for unlocked bootloader, received a brand new one.
After that I thought, yeah maybe it was stupid to flash all paritions including xloader and more. So I wanted to test only with ONE file, the dts file. So I flashed it using the twrp .img flash option, rebooted. Dead. Same as you and same as me before, sent it back again, received a new one.
So that's the 3rd phone I got now, I decided to sell it. I mean what should I do with a phone that can't be rescued after a flash with one file? Nothing, I can't experiment, not test out anything otherwise it will be broken again.
Also the fact that huawei seemed to troll me about my open source requests (the wrote me back to google for the opensource kernel code) helped me to decide to ditch huawei.
You won't ever face this issues on samsung devices, not opensource requests for kernel, not for killing device suddenly. I have to say the huawei mate 9 is great if you use this device "as is" without trying to develop anything for it.
I hope I could explain you my point a bit better, I advice you to send the phone back with the same method as I did. :good:

that's sad....and disturbing for me as huawei fan. the biggest problem is the kirin processor. on snapdragons, we have qhusb, which most of time,solves any problem.
the biggest problem for me, is that i don't have warranty.
the official huawei service center in my country, accepted to fix it, after i told them that i pay any price. they told that are able to flash empty boards, like your 2 cases, and mine.
the worst part is they also mentioned pcb replacement. the phone is new, i can't find any pcb for it, so i can't refuse the fix
ok, they f***d me up.....
they wanted to replace the mainboard, at 454 eur.
i paid 505 eur for the full box sealed phone.
bye bye huawei. moving to xiaomi mi 6 plus....waiting it to be released.

bricked my M3 BTV-W09

Hello all, long time lurker here.
I was working with my new M3 and ended up bricked. I unlocked bootloader, installed twrp greatslon 3.0.2-0, did an advanced wipe with all options(don't ask me why because I don't know why other than I had been working on it for a long time and was tired.)
Here is where I am:
have access to twrp greatslon
no adb
no hisuite
no files on internal storage
I have HUAWEI MediaPad M3 8 Firmware BTV-W09 CC100B006 EMUI 4.1 Android 6.0
Thanks in advance for your assistance and replies.
Signed,
Dumbass
I can also enter fastboot/rescue mode from twrp reboot to bootloader.
I also downloaded a rom from greatslon for this device and tried to install to receive this message in attachment.

I tried that too. Not exactly sure if it was done correctly. I used the update.app file in the dload folder. I think there was an error because that requires erecovery and that's gone too. If you know definitive instructions I would appreciate a link.
Thanks in advance.
Download and extract in dload folder on a external SD CARD - (BTV-W09 ,C100B006, EMUI4.1+ANDROID 6.0):
http://download-c1.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=94471&version=380540&siteCode=de
Turn off tablet.
Press volume up + volume down + power
It should start the update process.
If you had B006 on device, you should flash only this version.

Not expert here or I would not have bricked it to start with. Just determined.
After reading all these threads I am still stuck and not sure what to do.
My Mediapad M3 is imported from China so no warranty. Will have to fix it myself.
Currently the tablet is stuck at reboot loop, always stuck at the MediaPad logo, and reboot itself after it cannot boot up. The power button and volume buttons combination does not seem to work for me as well, as it never shut down completely. And worse of all, the LED is always flashing in red when charging, seems that it can't charge at all..
What I did was trying to upgrade to Nougat manually through dload folder, found that keyboard and many other things missing, trying to flash it back to Marshmallow, then this happened.
Any way to get out of this?

I'm in the same boat as you. Upgraded to Nougat, then flashed back down to Marshmallow through dload folder. But seems like the tablet can't bootup and hold a charge anymore. Did you bootloader unlock yours? If not, you should be able to bring it back for servicing (although it's in china).

I'm not even sure if the bootloader is locked or unlocked. Does it need to be unlocked to flash other region's rom? I ordered the tablet from China online, but it came with an international ROM (could be HK region). Are you able to fix yours?

Since you can't tell, your bootloader should be locked then. Once unlocked, Huawei shows a very big warning message everytime you power on the tablet. I bought mine from Malaysia, should be an Asian rom (i believe same as HK).
My bootloader was previously unlocked as i root my tablet. It got relocked after i ran the Marshmellow downgrade through dload. But the tablet just never boot up properly. I was able to get into fastboot though, and thought maybe i can unlock the bootloader again and flash each partition manually. But seems like unlocking the bootloader made it worse. Because after the unlock, i was prompted that data will be wiped and device will be restarted. After which, i could never get into the fastboot menu again. If i had kept it without the "bootloader unlocked" message, it should be possible to get it replaced at the service center easily.

I've had the P Smart for a couple of month when I considered using a Treble custom Rom (just to try it out and have some fun with it).
Since I didn't know how to flash GSI's I googled it and took the first step by step tutorial and followed it.
The Rom I flashed was the PixelExperience_arm64_a-8.1.0-20181015-0009-OFFICIAL.img.
Basically I flashed the rom via fastboot.
When I then realized that it wasn't quite what I expected I wanted to try out other roms.
So I went do dev-options and turned on ADB and OEM-Unlock but then... The OEM-Unlock option was greyed out.
f.
Since I came from stock I have had not yet installed TWRP.
I have searched the internet for hours and hours, day after day but I could not find a single option that could help me with my particular problem.
My current state:
- I have a rom that I do not longer want installed
- I do not have TWRP or any other custom-recovery installed
- In fastboot it says
"bootloader unlocked"
"FRP locked"
(My model is FIG-LX1 btw)
So, here I am and asking you guys for help.
Is there ANY possibility (aside from replacing the mainboard) to fix my phones current state?
Your help is really appeciated,
love y'all
kthxbye

Did that already...
Erecovery, connects to wifi, reads the lastest rom from a server, installs it, wipes it all to stock
Hopefully that works

Tried that already, it can't connect to the update server. ("Getting package info failed").
Also I tried the dload method, but none of the update files that I tried seemed to work, it either goes to 5% or says "software install failed" (or both).

So I tried that out, but firstly I couldn't find a proper OEMINFO, and secondly I don't think I could flash it, since my OEM bootloader is still locked...
As I understood HWOTA doesn't support the P Smart (yet?), and it also needs the OEM to be unlocked
And without the OEMINFO it does not seem to work

I don't know what you mean . All i know by my experience if you can access the eRecovery you can fix it even with locked bootloader

And by the way when looking for a firmware for your device . You should use older versions and it should be the full ota update
