Rebranding went wrong, reboot always brings me back to twrp - Huawei P10 Plus Questions & Answers

I just bought a P10 Plus VKY-L09C02 and thought it had dual SIM support. Found that it didn't and did some research. I found the dualSIM thread and proceed to mod following this thread - Convert to DualSIM Huawei P10 Plus (VKY-LXX) "https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/development/convert-to-dualsim-huawei-p10-plus-vky-t3605071/page4".
It failed on the part about restoring L29C432 image. Now everytime I boot, it will only come up to twrp. I tried eRecovery to find package, but it failed as well. Is there anyway I can flash the stock image back? Where could I download the stock image? I found it from http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite and it has FullOTA zip file. Can I use it to reflash my P10 Plus? Thank you for any help in advance.

Thank you. I will pm you.

Missing some settings and system apks (Nougat B336)

I have the problem.
I miss app twin and private space from settings(it doesn't exist) also missed (Files and Huawei ID, but installed apks for them), how to get them without downgrading to MM and installing again?
Is it possible by extracting apk for those files and installing or by dload method?
Or will I get these things if I upgrade when next nougat version is available via 3 buttons method?
Please someone help.

You do not install it corectly (for Files and Huawei ID). You have to install both zip one by one.
I did like its written in badwolf's thread. Flashed with meticulus both zip files in order without reboot. But i flashed new files b336 for the first time not b328/9. And saw some more people missed some system apks and features
b336 still need update_data_full, It should flash somehow like this:
* twrp > restore OEMINFO_VNS-L31 ( only for non vns-l31 models )
* twrp > format Data ( only for nougat twrp )
twrp > install update_data_full_VNS-L31_hw_eu.zip
* bootloader > flash recovery_stock.img ( if dload flash not work)
flash update.app by dload
eRecovery > Factory reset ( not wipe data in twrp, it will wipe the update_data_full )
Hello. Thanks for respond but my bootloader locked after i used 3buttons method and cant unlock again with same code. It says invalid. What can i do now? Also cant get new one from huawei site says to check imei/serial code

Your former unlock code is okey.
Make sure your settings> developer option> oem unlock is enabled and do the unlock thing properly
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock your_formor_unlock_code
if it can't work, the response shoud be "FAILED (remote: password wrong)", not invalid.
Is it possible to have single apks for Nougat apps like Huawei backup and Huawei ID? Cause I had problem to install the data pack and I'm running B336 on my L-31 with bootloader locked. But I want to back everything up before try again with the installation...
Cheers.

Ok, I found inside data.zip all the single apks. Now the problem is that I can't install every single app (file manager yes, but Huawei backup no) cause it gives me some error messages. Any ideas?

Twrp for nougat

Hi everyone my device is huawei p9 lite L31 and I installed the unofficial update, after that I found out some apps are missing and the TWRP aswell so I can't flash nothing.
I would like someone to tell me which TWRP I can install and how please.
Thank you!
TWRP for Nougat doesn't support mounting of the /data partition at the moment, so there is nothing you can do about it. You should have flashed the update + data in the first place. All you can do now is unlock the bootloader, flash the oeminfo for your device and downgrade via the 3 buttons method. Next time, in TWRP for MM (which does support /data mounting), you will flash update + data for Nougat which I still can't understand nobody does.

Btw when I wanted to update I flashed both files and I think that the update wasn't complete with all files and system apps already.
Something went wrong, then. You should be able to find oeminfos in some thread here on XDA, otherwise google is your friend. Just be careful what you flash because you MUST flash the correct one for your device and locale

Use the same unlock code you've used before, get it again.
And why are you using that build B300, you could have at leasT tried B336, which in my opinion isn't having any problems noticeable, battery drain also good...people complain about this, but if you know what you're doing this will never be an issue.

Thanks for the response, I'll try tomorrow, i've already forgotten and deleted the code. Actually, it's all misunderstanding on why i flashed this build lol. I am planning to revert to MM stock and i'm still looking for some guide on how to. I tried other methods and didn't get luck. If you have any ideas would you mind helping me again? Thanks!

Yeah I've already seen this and i'm not sure on what to download, i tried once but it says
"software install failed!"
"Incompatibility with the current version.
Please download the correct update package."
and i can't still unlock my bootloader, the website is new, and it won't redirect me to unlocking SITE from this thread LINK.
also just wondering, in this method, is it require to unlock the bootloader ? thank you so much for helping me.

This method don't require unlocked bootloader, don't require TWRP.
Just get the rollback file and full MM update file.
Install rollback first then MM file after, put the extracted update.app files In the dload folder on root of sdcard, one by one after each install
Or
If you don't want to use rollback file, unlock bootloader, then flash patched oeminfo file via:
1.fastboot using this command: fastboot flash oeminfo xxx (xxx= name of oemifo zip you have, ie. fastboot flash oeminfo C432oeminfoDual.zip)
Or
2.while In fastboot flash revolution nougat recovery, then boot into it by "vol up + power" then flash the patched oeminfo,
Then once flashed OEMINFO then install via 3 buttons mode the update.app of your firmware, this must be in dload folder on sdcard as above.if asked for password then use "reset"

I was able to revert to MM using this HUAWEI P9 Lite Firmware i don't know how, but it worked today. LOL, lastly, i just have a question to revolutionaryTWRP, i tried it once when i was having problem with ROM, and it couldn't even mount internal storage, but for other people i saw here in xda, they can even flash zip files from it. just wondering if there are other Revolutionary TWRP versions or it's all about the tutorial on using RevolutionaryTWRP? anyways, thank you so much again. and how can i tag this thread as solved by the way?

Edit title to solved.
The current TWRP by Revolution for nougat can't mount /data partition, and if you need flash anything there, you've got to change filesystem as advised In the tutorials, but you can flash mods or apps to system partition without problems....this problem is In nougat TWRP only currently, MM TWRP has no issues at all...anyways good to hear your sorted!

From (Med)Rom to stockrom need some advice/guidelines

Hi!
A while ago i managed to install medrom v3 on my phone. It worked well except for the play store. I read that this is caused by a version mismatch and i could be solved by flashing certain .img files.
Life happened and i didn't use the p9 lite for a while.
At the moment i got a phone with a unlocked bootloader and i want to go full stock with a locked bootloader.
I tried several things, like rollback files, 3 button method with a update.app and so on and i keep getting the : Software Install Failed error, indicating that the versions are mismatching.
It's a EU dual sim phone and the previous version before i medrommed it was stock: VNS-L31C432B130
And hints and guidelines on what to do ?
Thanks in advance!

Simo, thanks for your reply. I checked again and it was MEDRomV2 (your work ) not V3. Sorry the misinformation.
before reading your post i flashed 161 on it through 3-button. It said software install has failed, but MEDROM dissappeared, seems to be 'stock' atm. Playstore doesn't work and bootloader is still locked tho ?
Could you give me some guidelines on (which) oeminfo (and how) to flash ? And can i revert to unrooted/(re)locked bootloader/stock rom if i follow the instruction you gave me in the quoted post?
sorry for the late reply i don't have much time lately I appreciate your effort and time.

How's the camera on Medrom v2?
Hi friends,
I managed to solve my issue.
somehow i went from Medrom to Nougat 'test-keys'. From there i installed Revolution recovery, fixed the file system format to fat and back to ext4, then i installed the beta 336 Nougat, then i Rolled back to MM B160 and from there on i did the OTA to 370 and 380.
I am running a full stock (locked bootloader) L31C432B380 Rom now. Thanks for all the input.

Soft-brick P8 Lite [PRA-LX1] Europe

Hi guys,
I hope you can enlighten me regarding my bricked phone.
I tried to convert to Dual SIM following this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/guide-debranding-converting-single-sim-t3305977
I tried to flash the version (ALE-L02) that was in that guide and but it failed during the fastboot process because of a partittion error. I guess that was because I've tried to flash a stock room from a different model version (mine is PRA-LX1).
To get the phone back up I tried to flash one of this stockrooms:
http://www.stechguide.com/download-huawei-p8-lite-2017-android-nougat-firmware/
https://www.guidebeats.com/2017/02/21/nougat-b140-huawei-p8-lite-2017/
Because I don't have a micro sd card at the moment I used the huawei extractor tool to remove the boot, cust, recovery and system from the files I got from those sites and try to flash via flashboot. The process is done without any kind of errors.
First boot after flash the phone appears that it will start because it displays the logo and the blue bubbles but soon after stays like the image here: https://s1.postimg.o...172118b7227.jpg and wont boot.
What should I do ?
Many thanks!

There is an app called firmware finder. Download it a download firmware version C33BXXX and flash it via fastboot. The reason why your phone is stuck because you flashed C02BXXX instead of C33XXX.

Try resetting from Huawei recovery. I know it may seems that it won't make a difference but since you don't have any sdcard it is worth a shot.

already did that but the end result it's the same :\ I'll try to get my hands on a sdcard to try the other method (hopefully it will work)
So...quick update: I was able to get a sdcard and tried to update the firmware that I got from the firmware finder. When I start the process "holding volum up + down and the power button" the instalation stops at 5%. I really don't know how to get around this.
you're flashing the wrong firmware dude... the PRA-LX1 i for Huawei P8 Lite 2017... all the firmwares starting with ALE-LXX are for Huawei P8 Lite....

I understand that but I got the firmware from firmware finder and downloaded the version for my firmware and still it can't pass the 5% instalation process if connected to the pc. If is not connected to the pc it says instalation failed
any ideias how I could solve this ? I tried to install the firmware PRA-LX1C33B130 from firmware finder but it's stops at 5%. Do I need the exact firmware (PRA-LX1C33B120) ? If so, I really can't find it.

This page has all the official firmware for your device. Press the update button to download one. Make sure it's C33xxxx (you can press F3/Ctrl+F and search for "C33") and that it's the full version, not OTA. Then follow the second half of this guide.

When I tried the dload method: Instalation failed at 5%. It's similar to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16rHgp0GZ48 (1m30s) but with the screen saying my bootloader is unlocked.
When i flash it with fastboot it just stays like this : https://www1-lw.xda-cdn.com/files/2016/10/unlocked.jpg
can someone enlighten me on this subject? any ideas ?
I know I might be off topic,but anyone else had gapps removed after bootloader unlocking ? to be more specific, after I had unlocked the bootloader using adb and fastboot,I got a restart of the device and going directly to the main screen with some apps missing ( GPlay, google folder with gmail and stuff ) What I can do ? I got the PRA-LX1C432B126 firmware version. I also have the screen that squallx85 has ( the one who tells me that my phone is unlocked and no more trusted )
