Regarding Android N/EMUI 5.0 on L29

Changing thread to become updates on trying to 7.0 to work on L29
IGNORE:Has anyone tested the leaked Android N on an L29. It was confirmed that dload is not working. Has anyone tried fastboot
UPDATE:Tried flashing Boot Cust System and Recovery images from the new update.app. It flashed successfully with no errors. However, the device is currently stuck on "Device is booting"
Any Suggestions?
UPDATE 2:Went ahead and flashed the boot recovery and cust images from the update.app from L29C636B320 and i went through the device is booting screen. Currently on a black screen without a boot animation, waiting for something to happen. Tried a factory reset through the recovery and it failed. I'll let you know if it boots up
UPDATE 3: Noticed HiSuite being recognized, not sure how long its been there. Its been 15 minutes on black screen losing hope
UPDATE 4: Flashed back to B320 for now, @nakul has instructions to getting Nougat. Please refer to those. As of now I did not try it, I will when I have the time. Basically it's using dload after rebranding L29 as AL 10

OK I'll try it with fastboot, as mine is unlocked. I guess I'll take the risk, however I believe that it should work.

Ok, but if I understand it will pass the phone in AL-10. Because this leak is for AL-10

i flashed the wrong rom on my VNS-L21(now model no. is generic a-15)

hey
i flashed emui 5 on my VNS-L21
i did a mistake though
i flashed VNS-L31 firmware on my VNS-L21
now the phone model is changed to generic-a15
now i cant flash any roms using dload to this device..
i flashed twrp using fastboot but i cant boot into twrp....the bootloader unlocked screen says 'phone is booting" forever when i try to get into twrp
what do i do
please help
the rom is working fine on my VNS-L21 except for the camera...i need it a lot
please help me
edit:1
i tried to revert back to mm
it still says firmware incompatible
now my bootloader got locked...in the boot i got a msg that data partition is damaged and i need to format it....so i formatted it
now my phone is only booting to erecovery and bootloader
i cant flash twrp or revolution recovery because the bootloader is locked
i cant unlock bootloader now because i cant boot up my phone

Guys help us about the camera. I am in the same exact situation. @BadWolfYe and your product_V3 doesnt fix the camera for me, VNS-L21.
And for the recovery - http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...ecovery-twrp-3-0-2-android-nougat-03-t3511937 - use adb flash it.

You'll have to go the hard route. You'll find all the required files in the ROM section.
Download any Nougat.zip (329 worked for me, 336 did not). Unzip. You'll get the update.app.
Download the second file with all the missing apps. Do not unzip. Maybe rename to something shorter like data.zip.
Download Revolution Recovery for Nougat. Unzip. You get the recovery.img. RENAME to something like revolution.img.
Open update.app in Huawei Update Extracor. Extract recovery.img, boot.img and system.img to wherever your fastboot.exe is. It's practical to put it all in one directory so you don't have to type long paths.
Now, careful...
Go into Fastboot. If Vol- + Power doesn't work, let it boot into eRecovery, press Vol- and tap Reboot. There you are.
Open a command window in the dir with fastboot.exe and the .img files (right click, Open Command Window)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
.... OK
fastboot flash system system.img
.... sparse 1/5 or something, this takes a bit of time.
fastboot flash revolution.img
.... OK
Now DO NOT REBOOT into System. Hold Vol+ + Power while still in Fastboot. It'll boot into Revolution eventually. Tap Advanced, ADB Sideload. Swipe.
Back in your command window, type:
adb sideload second_file.zip
... working... this'll take a bit. There might be an error message like 'could not mount /data'. Doesn't matter at this point.
When done, type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (this is the stock recovery you extracted from update.app)
... OK
Reboot to recovery from Revolution.
Do factory reset. Note: If you don't do this last step, there will be a bootloop.
Reboot. The system should now boot up normally. At least it did for me... good luck.

I did this too. Only way to fix it is to downgrade to MM (instructions are in the N install thread). I then unlocked the bootloader, booted to fastboot, flashed Meticulus recovery. Once you're here, the important thing is to flash the update.zip and appropriate .Zip file for your device. Took me a while to find it but Meticulus has a post in Spanish with all of them for each type of P9 lite - there's one for the VNS-L23 there. Flash the update.zip and then device zip (in that order) and reboot. It'll work.
This phone is harder to flash Roms than others I've had in the past... It's important to do things in the right order.

First thing when you want to do something (TWRP, root, custom ROM etc.) with your phone is: UNLOCK BOOTLOADER!
Without unlocked bootloader is not hard to do, you not even try, because it is impossible...

For unlock bootloader you only need you phone to boot into bootloader...
You say "now my phone is only booting to erecovery and bootloader"

You have to saved anywhere first time you have'it!
That is the first rule!
Once you debranded your phone that Device ID is change,
so even your phone boot ok and you obtain a Device ID is not the same

So, procedure to obtain the bootloader unlock code is ended in error...

P9 Lite Bricked. Help me!!!

Hello,
I was always a Samsung fanboy, but than I decided to buy the P9 lite (VNS-L21 single sim)
I wanted to flash the android 7 update for my phone, but I was such a noob in Huawei, that I didn't understand a word. But i tried to do what the instructions said. Now my phone is bricked. I can go to recovery, erecovery (which can't download anyithing) and download mode. I heard of this fastboot stuff as well, but I don't know how to do this. I tried to flash as many roms as I could with dload and it didn't work, after 5%, it said it failed... Now I don't know what to do. I think somebody (expert) should make a clear tutorial for noobs. Oh and I almost forgot that i don't have root, custom recovery, and things like that. I just bought the phone, I didn't want to make big changes, just new android. Is it possible that after this Huawei would fix my phone, if I couldn't? Or warranty is void? And sadly I don't know more of my phone because I'm not ina rom, and the phone and papers don't say more.
If you could help me, I would appreciate it:
Raul

Turn off your phone, connect to the pc while holding the volume down button, you will end up in fastboot mode.
I assume you have ADB and drivers installed (if not, install ADB and device drivers).
Optional: unlock your bootloader if it's locked.
Download the latest offical rom zip for your phone version (the marshmallow one), extract the update.app.
Use Huawei extractor to ectract the following files (google is your friend in this one, but its not difficult):
boot.img
recovery.img
cust.img
system.img
After you've done this, connect your phone to the PC in fastboot mode .
Open a command promt from the folder where the extracted files are (shift+right click, Open Command window here), enter the following commands
fastboot devices (you will see the list of attached devices with a lot of random number + fastboot)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot reboot
After all this, you should be good to go, just be sure you are using the correct rom for you version.
Or you can just serach on the forum and find this.

If I would unlock it, would fastboot work? Because fastboot pc app recognizes my phone, but my phone says in fastboot mode, that I should connect itself to pc and open hisuite. WTF?

Hello. I disconnected it from everything (for example USB)When I tried to install it said something like incompatibility version, but it couldn't be because I tried many roms for my phone.

Heyho,
the dload method works always without unlock bootloader. But, u can't flash for example an B161 over an B3xx (what nougat is) if the update u installed modified already the oeminfo u are not able to flash any rom below B3xx (nougat) via dload.
-
In that case u might use the official rollback package (never tested it myself) or, u unlock ur bootloader, flash a TWRP recovery matching to ur current FW. Flash from there a oeminfo + custom.bin (lower than B3xx) and flash the FW matching to the new oeminfo via dload and stock recovery.
Regards,
Sebastian

If you have custom recovery, wipe everything. Data, system, boot. extract update app (which is your stock rom) with huawei update extractor. go to custom recovery, flash stock boot IMG and stock recovery IMG. Power off, use three button dload method, reboot, when booting press vol up for three second, now you are in e-recovery. Press shutdown. Press and hold power and vol up for stock recovery. Do factory reset. If need do the factory reset 2/3 times. Now you are with locked bootloader.

Really Stuck and Need Help ASAP!!! MLA-L03 Soft Brick

I'm stuck in an infinite eRecovery loop. No matter what I try or what I do I can't get the phone to boot back into the OS. Anyone have any tips or tricks? Huawei is going to do an rma for me but I'm flying out on business for 2 weeks and really need this phone with me. It's an MLA-L03 that is oem unlocked (which is what I'm thinking is causing me the most issues as I can't do the normal button presses to get to certain things but I can't relock it as it says it can't be trusted or whatever)
I did manage to get to a point where I have full access to /data/ but no matter what rom I try to flash it fails with failing to mount /cust/
If I put an update.app it will get to 5% and hang until it fails when I do the button press to force an update. I cannot get to the emui factory reset screen.
PS, yes I know I'm a dumbass, so be gentle lol. I'm really desperate and have nothing to lose at this point so will to try anything.
I did try everything here with no luck (other than getting full access to /data/ lol):

Ok so you'll have to flash firmware with fastboot.
You need to download and install fastboot, firmware finder and huawei extract tool.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 (fastboot), https://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/general/huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3469146 (firmware finder), https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454 (huawei extract tool).
So install adb and fastboot, extract firmware finder and huawei extract tool. Open firmware finder hit common base, on model for find enter mla-l03 and download a full ota, form firmware you just downloaded extract update.app. Now open huawei extract tool and load your update.app you've just extracted and extract from there boot.img, recovery.img and system.img by using the right click (extract them on the same folder where is located fastboot, for example I got fastboot installed on local C/adb).
If you have twrp installed boot in fastboot mode by using twrp, if not you can boot in fastboot mode with the phone turned off by pressing volume - while plugging the usb cable.
Open cmd and write cd /adb (between cd and / is space) and hit enter than write fastboot flash boot BOOT.IMG and hit enter, fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.IMG and hit enter, fastboot flash system SYSTEM.IMG and hit enter, after finally writing the system write fastboot reboot and hit enter and wait till phone reboots.

Thanks, I've done all that already and it did not fix it but will try again once I get home.

Really?
I got my phone in the same state and was the only method witch helped me.
Did you successfully flashed boot, recovery and system and still not working? phone get stuck on the huawei logo? After you flash them, boot into recovery and do a factory reset and wipe cache.

yup, everything flashed successfully. I can't get into the recovery to do a factory reset. I have 4 options at my disposal:
1. fastboot
2. Huawei eRecovery
3. TWRP
4. force update where it always fails at 5%
I think the biggest thing that is screwing me is the fact that it's unlocked and I can't relock it. I'm almost 100% positive if I could relock it, I would have no issues with it.

And woh do you boot into twrp? Since you can boot into twrp you must be able to boot in stock recovery. Use huawei multi tool by black team too go into recovery.

It's weird. I flash TWRP, do what I need to do, then reflash the recovery.img. However it just does a continuous loop to eRecovery when I do that unless I try to force it to update.
I'll try using the fastboot that you linked to and see if that makes a difference. Right now I'm using the minimal adb and fastboot install.
EDIT: Same result when trying to relock the bootloader--device cannot be trusted.
EDIT2: Do you have the cust.img file? None of the firmwares I've downloaded has it in it.

When your device reboots and you get to the warning screen about your device being unlocked, what buttons do you press to get into the normal (ie not eRecovery) recovery where you can do a factory reset? When I have TWRP installed, I have to hold volume + and volume - at the same time to go into TWRP. If I do the same thing after I reflash recovery.img, then it goes straight into the forced update which stalls and fails at 5%. Volume - reboots and goes back to fastboot. Volume + takes me to eRecovery. Doing nothing, the phone reboots and goes to eRocovery on the reboot. Holding down all 3 buttons also goes to the forced update screen.
I'm assuming that I'm missing something super simple and stupid so I'm going to go over everything again, step by step very carefully.

To enter in normal recovery you have to press and hold at the same time volume - and power button.

That just reboots me and then puts me in fastboot unfortunately. I'm going to try loading twrp and removing anything in /dload/ and see if it will boot to normal recovery. Last time I checked there was an update.app file there so maybe it's just bypassing recovery and trying to install that.

I'm driving and it's a bit hard to write did you tried another recovery? You can flsh twrp, put the stock recovery on sdcard, boot into twrp and flash recovery from there and reboot phone from twrp into recovery....

No worries, I really appreciate all the help. Now stop texting and driving. Your life is more important than my phone!!

Stuck in fastboot. Can't access eRecovery.

Hi all,
Please help me!
I think i messed up pretty badly here. I tried downgrading from Oreo to Nougat but I think I tried to install a wrong image. Now when i boot i get:
ERROR MODE
Attention! Please update system again
Error!
Fun NO : 15 (bl31 image)
Error NO : 1 (security verify failed)
I've tried the dload method but it doesn't even start. I boot it up holding power, vol+, vol-, and it gets stuck at "your device is booting now."
I can't access twrp, even after flashing it again.
I can get into fastboot and I've tried manually flashing images from an update.app, but after that, the same problem still persists. Trying to relock the boot loader gives an error "command not allowed"
Does anybody have any ideas?

yes i have same because battery is not dead still wait battery remain if dead then plug against work fastboot need firmware rollback version only C432B185 try HWOTA this is the best

So you're saying that I wait until my battery drains, then go into fastboot and roll back to C432B185? Maybe you could help me by outlining the steps to flash via fastboot?

flash via fastboot by HWOTA follow this link https://romprovider.com/2018/01/download-install-b185-nougat-update-huawei-p10-plus/
only method 1

So i tried this method, but it didn't work. It flashes TWRP, and instructs me to disconnect the USB cable and boot into TWRP, but i can't boot into TWRP. It goes directly to the error message even when holding the buttons down.

because stuck in fastboot is freeze or corrupted still wait battery drains when dead battery hold vol down + plug USB then run in HWOTA...............

So after waiting for the battery to drain, holding vol down, and plugging the USB, I'm back where I was before with being in fastboot. Running HWOTA results in the same problem for when it tells me to reboot to TWRP after install, the phone goes to error mode.
I'm pretty sure the bl31 image corruption is preventing me from booting into recovery.

try other methode if work or not run fastboot need files from huawei firmware extractor open Update.app save files boot.img + recovery.img + system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
Test it

Ok so i flashed boot.img, recovery.img, system.img all OKAY.
Reboot and i get the same error..
The problem is with the bl31 image, which is in ARM Trusted Firmware.
Maybe if i could figure out how to flash TRUSTFIRMWARE.img that would work. I tried this, but it doesn't work. I don't know the partition name.
fastboot flash trustfirmware
unknown partition 'trustfirmware'

Try HWOTA flash TWRP then hold power + vol up stay hold vol up long 15 seconds

Hi
I have the exact same problem
After trying all of the methods I found (dload, HWOTA, TWRP, etc), I finally took the phone to the service center.
They told me it was an easy fix, then they called me and told me that probably they were going to replace the motherboard
I'm still waiting for them to call me for confirmation.
If you got any news on this, please keep posting
Thanks!

I actually ended up using dc pheonix to fix it. It worked perfectly. I had to pay about 15 dollars for credits. It used some sort of backdoor and flashed a new ROM from scratch.

I tried DC Phoenix and It did not work. They returned me my money.
At the service center they finally replaced my motherboard, in warranty, even though the phone was unlocked and I bricked it completely
