No Reboot After TWRP Flash

Hello, i had a lot of troubles with battery drains recently, by curiosity i wanted to restore my stock backup.
So i did and the phone was stuck during rom boot.
So i wanted to go back to TWRP to fix things but instead it went back to stock recovery.
Okay, so i wanted to flash TWRP again but after flashing the recovery.img,
nothing happens when i enter fastboot reboot
I forced shutdown and re tried many times with other twrp files, always the same issue i cannot reboot with the flashed recovery ! ! !
please HELP :angel:

To boot to recovery, shut down the phone, press volume up + power button, when the phone vibrate release the buttons and it will boot to recovery.
The command "fastboot reboot" will just reboot normally the phone.

sorry but my problem is that i cannot reboot in twrp anymore, it always reboot on STOCK recovery !
dunno what to do i got to meet foreign customers tomorrow without my phone i dunno how i'll do, so unlucky it happened to me today
i even tried flashing on another computer, and trying to restore with stock recovery or huawei app but none are working.
to make it clear, i can just fastboot.
so what should i flash to restore/unbrick my phone ? don't care if i lose data, just need to call tomorrow !
edit: some folks say to put update.app in load folder on sd card then boot with the three buttons but which update.app file should i copy ? i got a VNS-L31 should the SD card be in FAT32 ?

Are you sure you flashed TWRP? Try to download it again and flash it from fastboot mode.

yes sure i did it like 20 times this afternoon, i'm trying to fix it for 5 hours lol
in fact i just was able to boot the restore .app while booting with the three buttons, it's installing updates, hope it will fix all the partitions/recovery/boot/system... and all those necessary stuffs
edit: finally huawei animated boot logo is showing UP !

i was using meticulous TWRP v3 and some of his builds for several months and i had trouble with those roms.
so i restored my stock backup and everything was not working anymore, each i tried flashing it always went back on stock recovery a every reboot, impossible to flash twrp anymore...
looks like the phone is stuck in a boot loop lol pfffft
edit:
FYI what i just tried is restoring this image http://consumer.huawei.com/lk/support/products/downloads/huawei-p9-lite-lk.htm (the first one ASIA) but the phone is still booting looks like a fail, could it be incompatible ?

I see.
If you managed to restore with the update.app and the 3 buttons, everything should be fine. It will take some time to boot up, so just wait for a while. Also the bootloader probably re-locked so you will need to unlock it again.

it can relock ? i will check !
if it does not work should i fast boot flash system.img, recovery.img, cust.img, cache.img and boot.img ?

I think the best thing to do should be a factory reset from recovery, stock is fine, then reboot and wait for 15-20 minutes. If the update.app succefully installed there should be no problem

If you don't have to option to factory reset then you must be on eRecovery

Maybe try the Melina twrp build. I read it should fix the issue.

You NEED to flash twrp, hold the power button until it shuts the phone off, then go through the sequence.
As soon as you restart it, it's flashing the stock bootloader, in my estimation.

Install of LOS, hit snag at TWRP update

Hey everyone,
I was running through the process of installing LOS 15.1 official when I hit a snag. I unlocked the bootloader, installed the Universal O bootloader, and was in the process of updating my version of TWRP. After flashing the image to recovery, I noticed that the TWRP version hadn't updated to the new one. I tried rebooting and that's when the problem started. Now, when I hit power + volume up, I get the ZTE powered by android screen, then 3 flashes of the notification light, and then it powers off. If I hit the power button, it sits on that same ZTE splash screen for what seems like indefinitely. I can't figure out how to get back into TWRP.
Any help is greatly appreciated

You can try flashing twrp via the twrp app

Hey!
Try to reboot the phone, press volume button to get the selection menu and reboot to fastboot.
connect the phone to your PC and using the a7toolkit flash the recovery again.
I think I did exactly the same thing as you and I fixed it this way

I assume you are coming from stock because you're unlocking your bootloader. I have a question about this process, did you install an older twrp first before flashing the O bootloader?

When I connect my phone to my computer, none of the toolkits I've tried can see it. It comes up as "Handset Diagnostic Interface (DFU) (Com4)". When I attempt to enter EDL mode with volume +, volume -, and power I don't get a flashing LED, just a solid one. As near as I can tell, this means my phone is hardbricked. I've got an EDL cable on order to hopefully fix this, but it's going to take almost a month to get here :crying:

Yes, the toolkit I used (Axon7RootToolV4) first unlocked the bootloader and then had a step to flash TWRP. When I was attempting to update TWRP, per the LOS instructions, it wasn't updating like it has in the past on other phones. I now know that restarting was the worst thing to do at that point. If the version of TWRP doesn't also match the bootstack and ROM, you're going to have a bad day if you restart.

Can't boot into twrp

Can't figure out why twrp will not boot. When I reboot to recovery from either adb, magisk, or just powering on, the splash screen appears then screen goes black and a white LED light turns on . Only way out is to hold power button to boot into the phone. I believe i have the newest twrp. which is twrp-3.2.3-0 i believe. Thanks for the help.

What's your current Rom version and what twrp file do you want to flash (file names for both please!)?
Is this the first time you unlocked the bootloader and try to flash a custom recovery? Please tell exactly what you did
Maybe it's due to wrong firmware/twrp combination, but let's see.

Hi dude,
if you're on stock rom try this:
reboot in bootloader/fastboot mode, connect the device to your PC,
open the prompt and type fastboot reboot.... you should solve.
Instead if you're on custom rom let me know.
If you installed some software/app and stucked into bootlooping,
you should be aware of which app you installed last and booting in recovery mode (TWRP)
try to delete it manually.
Cheers

Well

Thats the problem.
I can enter in the bootloader, the phone have the TWRP, are now whats happen but i can enter in the custom recovery.
The screen turns black and grey.
youtube com/watch?v=h9oMBpD0MZQ&feature=youtu.be
The phone dont have a custom rom, is the stock rom.
I erase the system and data in the TWRP, because a problem with my google acount in the phone. but it was worse for the phone.
The only thing i have to do is enter in the stock recovery, and the software installer(vol+ vol - and power).
I cant use the ADB minimal and fastboot. The phone is reconized by the PC, but the program no.
I think this is the only possibility, i download many firnwares, but in all the screen shows "Software install failed incompatible with current version"
In the 3% or 10%.

Wow, you erased system and data ? that's the reason because it will not boot dude.
Fortunately fastboot mode and twrp works and i think that will help you
bring your device back to life.
Do you remember latest firmware of your device ?
Which TWRP version are on ?

mmm

You flashed the TWRP but don't work ?
Fastboot mode is bootloader mode so.....
what happen if you turn off the device and restart it
holding vol - and power button until it boot into system/bootloader ?
And vol + vol - and power buttons = three buttons aka DLOAD method are used to flash a firmware
but only in android 6.
Without know the latest firmware you was running on your device
it's very difficult to revive the phone, regardless of the type of device...
Another way to try to revive the phone is a rebrand but it is a bit difficult
and you need the correct files with a working TWRP...
Sorry dude i think i cannot help you anymore...
I wish you the best
