Huawei Software installing Loop!

Hey, i tried to install the android 6.0 beta from this forum, but i was rooted, now its stuck in a loop where it turns off, turns on and tries to install it and fails at 0%, and again. I can enter Fastboot/rescue mode and thats it. I tried to flash recovery boot and system.img in adb and fastboot, but it shows this:
C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Help pls. I tried everything...

System.img flash failed after 2 mins now too. Still no idea.

Looks like you've used the KingRoot method to root your phone.
Flashing via fastboot requires the fastboot to be unlocked.
The message "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)" indicates, that the script tried to execute the command, but because the bootloader is still locked, it cannot do such thing.
There are 2 solutions:
Download the original firmware and try to update to it via the "dload" method. (sdCard>dload>UPDATE.APP)
Try to unlock the bootloader. But for unlocking, you'll need the Product ID, which as of now, only obtainable, when the phone is able to boot up.
I really recommend trying to download the firmware, and give the "dload" method a shot, because without an unlocked bootloader, nothing you can do at home.
Right, it's almost nothing. There's this site called DC-Unlocker, and with a fast runthrough, it should be able to unlock the bootloader, but I haven't tried, or tested it in any way. Still an interesting program, though.
Edit:
Just saw your post under the other similar topic.
You should try to do a Factory Reset, by hand, via fastboot, and then updating with the "dload" method again.
The commands are:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
Maybe this helps.

Ive got all the informations for getting the bootloader unlock code, but when i type it in the thing by huawei to get the unlock code it tells me that its wrong... I could get it here if you could help me with it?

Hello,
I'd like to request a bootloader unlock code for my Huawei device
Information:
Product: HUAWEI ALE-L21
SN:
IMEI:Nvm
Product IDups.
Thank you!
So, this is the e-mail i sent to Huawei, they couldnt help me. Everything here is directly from the phone itself, so i dont think its wrong.

With the Product ID, you can get the code, but the details above are wrong, more precisely one of them, which is the Phone Name
Try it without the HUAWEI, it should look like this: "ALE-L21" (without the " of course).
If it somehow would not work for you, I sent you a PM with your unlock code in it.
Note: I recommend not to publish your information like this. The phone is blockable with the IMEI remotely by the service providers or the police. Please remove them for your own safety.

Tried the update again, now flashing doesnt even work.

Thoughts on bootloop of ZE551KL

Folks,
I have a ZF2L aka ZE551KL which is currently in a bootloop. Why that happened I have no idea as I have not dinked with the stock rom or for that matter even unlocked the bootloader.
A little bit of history, over the weekend, I had plugged in my phone to charge it and then when it completed charging I unplugged it and then tried to reboot it. That was the last time I had it working. After the reboot the phone has been in a bootloop ever since.
In order to try to recover from the above, I started reading a bit on what to do and I came across the postings that mentioned the bootloader has to be dropped to the Lollipop level so that it can be unlocked and then the recovery can be upgraded to Marshmallow. While trying to get all of that done, I have ended up here.
I "think" I have unlocked the bootloader using the command
echo -ne "\x01" | dd obs=1 count=1 seek=16 of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/devinfo
I ran the above command directly on the phone via the terminal in TWRP. I booted into TWRP using the following fastboot command
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-Z00T.img
Running the fastboot command, fastboot oem device-info gives me the following output
C:\Users\home\android\platform-tools\images>fastboot oem device-info
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.016s]
Finished. Total time: 0.016s
However when I try to flash a new recovery TWRP-3.2.3-0-Z00T I get the following error
C:\Users\home\android\platform-tools\images>fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-0-Z00T.img
Sending 'recovery' (29856 KB) OKAY [ 1.342s]
Writing 'recovery' FAILED (remote: 'Permission denied, phone is protected')
Finished. Total time: 1.388s
I'm a little lost on what's going on. The device-info tells me the bootloader is unlocked, however it appears that something else is still locked which is not allowing the recovery to get flashed.
The stock recovery I was on before this all started was asus/WW_Z00T/ASUS_Z00T/6.0.1/MMB29P/WW_user_21.40.1220.2181_20170805. The recovery I currently have is LRX22G.WW_user_1.16.40.763_20151201
Any pointers on what I could do to get this resolved would be helpful?

hi if ur bootloader is unlocked, u an do a fresh flash of all d partitions as sometimes things get messed up on its own.
download firmware from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B43Ue6xY9MmdN0UzWVRFcno4N0U/view and extract, then run flashall.cmd (in fastboot mode i.e. pwr and vol up)
u should finish without any hiccups. u will lose twrp though
tried on mine it woks. but google frp may be active so keep ur email n pass handy. m not responsible for any damages though ...

HUAWEI P10 Lite help to unlock after LCD replacement

Hello,
I'm new to this forum, so please excuse me if this is not correct section to post.
I'm more used to Samsung and ODIN, first time i encounter this situation with Huawei
Here is the situation.:
Had to replace a LCD of a Huawei P10 Lite for a client. (WAS-LX1A model)
I did it, without issue...
Tested the replacement LCD (without glue it) display OK touchscreen OK
It went to the welcome screen asking for the PIN code to unlock the screen/
Ok so i turn it off.
Finish the replacement fix
Turning it back i got infinite loopboot ... showing HUAWEI logo , and rebooting all the times....
Trying to go to recovery mode holding VOL+ VOL- without success
The only key giving a reaction is VOL- going to FASTBOOT
This is the information i got the first time i went to FASTBOOT
FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE
Please Connect USB cable to your computer and open HiSuite
( i did it but the phone is NOT detected in HiSuite,
but the phone is recognized on my Devices Manager of my Windows 10 laptop
under the name
KEDACOM USB DEVICE
> Android Bootloader Interface
so to continue what i had on my screen 1st time i went into Fastboot
FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE
Please Connect USB cable to your computer and open HiSuite
Android reboot reason:
coldboot 16
NA
volumnkey_down_press_process_func
Phone Locked
FRP Lock

Click to collapse
:'(
I don't understand why i get the FRP lock, usually its when you format and try to bypass the password of the google account (usually occuring when trying to ovveride this protection with stolen smartphones...) but here its not the case.
A few minutes before the smartphone asked me to encode the PIN code of unlocking screen (for my client its not a schema its a PIN code) i just tried 2 numbers and i even not validated my input i just turned off the phone ....
Well anyway, no when i go again in the fastboot the message is different and is always this one now
FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE
Please Connect USB cable to your computer and open HiSuite
Android reboot reason:
AP_S_PMU 144

What have i tried already ?
i downloaded a TWRP image of 22 MB , installed " Minimal ADB and fastboot " SDK
with ADB i can't see the device
with FASTBOOT i can list the device
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot devices

Help to recover Asus ZenFone AR

Hi,
Today My Asus Zenfone AR stopped working with no apparent reasons or actions performed by me.
When I try to turn it on, it simply remains stuck on the ASUS log screen.
I tried to trigger the recovery mode (POWER+VOLUME DOWN button ) with no success (nothing happens)
I tried POWER+VOLUME UP and I got the fastboot screen. The following infos are displayed:
PRODUCT_NAME - Siva
STORAGE VARIANT - UFS
BOOTLOADER VERSION - 1.21
VERSION - WWZS571KL-14.1600.1712.41
SECURE BOOT - enabled
DEVICE STATE - locked
From the menu I can select 1)start, 2)power off, 3)recovery mode, 4)restart bootloader.
Nothing seems to work, in particular if i select recovery mode, the phone reboots but it remains stuck in the logo again.
Then I tried to follow the steps described by you in: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-ar/development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3767745.
adb.exe version 29.0.6-6198805, running on windows10, seems not recognize the device while the phone is in fast boot mode (adb devices shows no output)
Instead, the device is recognized by fastboot.exe (same version). I tried the following four commands with no success:
1) fastboot flashing unlock
FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
2) fastboot oem unlock
FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
3) fastboot oem asus-go
(bootloader) Fail to unlock device due to invalide signature!
OKAY [ 0.036s] Finished. Total time: 0.042s
4) fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-0_CPTB-20180323-03-A002.img
Sending 'recovery' (18672 KB) OKAY [ 0.466s]
Writing 'recovery' FAILED (Status read failed (Too many links))
fastboot: error: Command failed
The phone then turns off.
I suspect the last command failed because of the device is locked but I cannot find a procedure to unlock it from fastboot. (anyway, I have zero experience on android firmware etc).
Can you suggest me on how to proceed?

[HELP] Z00TD/ZE551KL soft-bricked? No recovery mode, no OS, locked bootloader.

Hey guys, I need help with this Asus Zenfone 2 Laser that:

As someone who has only worked with Google Pixel phones in the past, I'm very frustrated for a few reasons.
Firstly, why the hell is the ONLY WAY to unlock a bootloader through an app that was released in such a clandestine, under-the-table way?
Second, why is the manufacturer gatekeeping the recovery files? The only way I was able to find the stock recovery.img is through a comment on a Reddit post (ironically posted by an ASUS Employee).
Third, I've been scouring the internet for many, many days trying to find any kind of emergency recovery method, but every single tutorial acts on the assumption that the bootloader is unlocked, and that boot.img, recovery.img, etc. can be flashed.
Enough about the frustration. Now let's talk about what I've tried so far.
I tried ASUS Flash Tool (Finding ADB drivers was a whole different fiasco for this device), and came up empty handed, as it doesn't detect the device when in fastboot mode.
I tried using fastboot to flash boot, recovery, system, fastboot, and dnx/ifwi, to no avail.
I tried booting into recovery via `fastboot reboot recovery`, `fastboot reboot-recovery`, `fastboot oem reboot-recovery`, and by holding Vol Down while booting up. They all give the same result, which is just an instant (<1 second) reboot. My best guess is that recovery.img is either missing or badly corrupt, so the bootloader just gives up and exits immediately.
Please help. I don't want an expensive paperweight sitting in my drawer just because of a bootloop that wasn't my fault (seriously this device just bootlooped itself one day, I didn't flash a custom rom, root or anything like that).
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks in advance

you can flash on locked bootloader in EDL mode. search in the forum, don't hesitate to ask for clarity on search results. I give you a starting point.
(don't read the whole thread, it will only confuse you)

Probably a dumb question, but how can I put my device into EDL mode?
I've tried many key combinations in conjunction with plugging it into the computer, and I've tried connecting it without a battery.

if nothing else works you need to figure out test points
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ed-to-unlock-bootloader.4531349/post-87944673

you still have fastboot? try this for EDL mode.
Code:
fastboot oem enter-dload

Good news and bad news. Good news is: I was able to enter EDL mode.
Bad news is, apparently my entire partition scheme was messed up, and upon running "edl w gpt gptboth0.bin", fastboot no longer works.
I have tried flashing aboot using edl ("edl w aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn") and it's not working.
Not to mention that it is almost impossible to find the firmware file with all the factory files such as "emmc_appsboot.mbn". The place where I got my file seemed very sketchy and I'm not surprised if the reason it's not working is because it's the wrong file.
Once again, this is a result of ASUS gatekeeping their recovery files to service centers to drive up repair sales.
If anyone has a link, or would like to provide a donor file, it would be VERY much appreciated.

So yes, I was able to get fastboot back. However, I am now facing another issue.
In order to get fastboot back, I had to run this command
Bash:
edl qfil rawprogram0.xml patch0.xml image_dir
This seemed fine at first, but now, running "edl printgpt" returns nothing. Somehow, the phone is able to boot to fastboot without any GPT partitions visible.
However, when I try to flash gpt_main0, or gpt_both0, the phone now becomes unbootable.
This means, if I try to create a partition table to flash recovery onto, appsboot (and by extension, fastboot) no longer works.
Code:
$ fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Sending 'recovery' (18115 KB) OKAY [ 0.581s]
Writing 'recovery' FAILED (remote: 'partition table doesn't exist')
fastboot: error: Command failed
"partition table doesn't exist"
If I try to create the partition table, the phone refuses to boot...

So we're you able to find a fix in any way? I find myself in just about the same situation tho for different reasons. I have a radiant max 5g att device i moronicaly tried to download a gsi using the dsu updater, but forgot to unlock bootloader or even enable USB debugging before attempt. So OS system is crashing an saying 'device corrupted' on boot attempt. Recovery mode gets the same result. Was able to use the bugjaegar app to connect ad run the bootloader but every repair attempt is blocked by the fact the USB debugging isn't on. To make matters worse I accidentky hit boot fastbootd command instead of normal and whatever that did wiped out my ability to even connect with bootloader so I'm kind of stuck.

I found many tutorials about fixing bootloops on the Nexus but they all seem to require an unlocked bootloader.
The bootloader on the device is locked. I can see the device in fastboot devices but I can't unlock it.
Any idea how to repair this? Can I somehow flash a factory image onto the device even though OEM unlock is disabled? There is no data on the device that would need to be preserved. I'm ideally looking for a Linux-based solution. more info... ***

Yeah man I've been looking at this problem for over a week now and can't find much online at all to help. Except for this EDLmode some devices can boot into, and apparently you can flash a locked system using this emergency download mode. I dunno still researching.
