almost dead: no screen, buttons, led, recovery. only fastboot possible. bad oeminfo. - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

hello all, i need help. 2 days ago i want change customization from 185 to 432... but thanks to my stupidity, from (i think) revolution recovery i flashed oeminfo for p9 (device is p9lite) -_- . right now phone looks like luxurious brick it doesnt react to buttons, screen is entire time off, led doesnt even blink and also there is no vibrations. only mark of life is communicating over fastboot.
BL unlocked, i tried flash main rom images but it doesnt help. im unable to flash oeminfo, command not allowed. also im unable to fastboot getvar all. old rom was l21c185b360
i tried DC client (w/o credits) but it identifies phone as P9 (from oeminfo?)
EDIT: ok, atleast power button works. but i dont hear any time difference between btn combos, so i think it is always booting only to fastboot. and fastboot is avaible after each type of start.
im unable to turn it off, looong press causing only reboot
zip file what i flashed contains only oeminfo.img
have you any ideas what to do? or is chance that DC phoenix can help me even it have wrong device info?

solved with DC phoenix, phone is back in life... currently im solving missing imei and damaged(?) oeminfo (all by my fault, DC works great)

L31 bricked by flashing rollback package

Hi All.
I hope someone can help me. I encountered this stupid problem:
I have a L31 device and successfully installed the Nougat (test?)update through Firmware Finder. But since this wasn't the definitive update, I decided to rollback to MM. I installed the C900B300 rollback package and then the B160 package. That went well, BUT the device now refused to activate the Google services. I couldn't enter a Google account. Not from Settings > Accounts and not from any other Google app like Chrome, Play Store, Gmail or others. The screen just kept returning to the Homescreen.
Upon checking About this device, I noticed the version now was C900B160, instead of the expected C432B160. I am very positive I used the C432B160 MM package to flash. This I did with the three button method. But then how come it still showed C900B160?
So I first tried to reflash the C432B160 with the three button method. Flashing worked well, but the problem wasn't solved. Still no Google activation and still the same C900B160 number.
So then I decided to reflash the rollback package...
That turned out to be a mistake... After flashing that (and it did show 100% successfull after flashing) the device is bricked. The Huawei logo shows and then nothing happens. The logo stays in the screen. I can't even turn the device off. Short pressing the ON-OFF button does nothing and long pressing just restarts the logo and nothing more.
I tried to reflash the MM update C432B160 with the three button technique, but that doesn't work anymore!! Entering erecovery with the volume up and ON-OFF also doesn't work anymore!! The only thing that works is Fastboot when connected to a pc. That screen shows phone (and bootloader) is locked, by the way. So I can't flash boot.img and recovery.img .
Has anybody encountered such problems and knows what to do now?? Thanks guys!

With fastboot method, unlock bootloader again. Flash recovery. Boot into recovery. Wipe system and boot. Flash stock boot IMG and recovery IMG. Power off. Use dload. Now you are in bootloop. When booting press vol up 3 seconds, on e-recovery press shutdown. Press and hold power and vol up. Go to stock recovery, do factory reset.

Thanks for your help.
Trouble is that I can't unlock te bootloader, because I do not know my Product ID and I can't look it up, since I don't have a dialer... The HuaweiProductIDGenerator doesn't help. I tried several codes with it, but none worked.

No, I can only get into fastboot when connected to a pc.
OK. gtdaniel was so kind to provide me with an unlock code. THANKS!
But, I don't seem te be able to use it...
I can put the phone in bootloader when connected to a pc. When I type "fastboot devices" I do get the correct serial number. But when I type "fastboot oem unlock 343...338" I get a FAILED (remote: command not allowed).
It seems this is because I never could allow OEM unlocking from the Android settings menu. But since my phone is bricked, I can not enter into that menu!
Does anybody know how to solve this??

SRKToolHuawei-Lod-Chong-V2.0-20161002

at command line when u write adb devices u got your phone ?
Maybe is dump question but did you install adb android driver ?
I'm pretty sure that someone wrote in thread that you don't need to have this oem permission in android if you are in fastboot

OEM permission need for fastboot/unlock bootloader.

Yes, that's what I read too. Since I can't change that permission anymore while I can't start Android, I can't unlock. Dammit.
Is DC Unlocker my only option then? It seems their software can do it.
I'm afraid I've got some pretty bad news. Last week the same thing happened to me after I was THAT stupid to actually try and flash the rollback package for the second time. My phone got bricked just like yours, and NOTHING worked to fix it. I tried completely everything I could find on the net and XDA, and in the very end I was forced to bring it in for warranty repairs. Even they COULD NOT fix it and the phone ended up with the entire logicboard changed with a completely new one. I was lucky that it all was done under warranty. Will never do anything as stupid as that!
Really hope you find a fix somehow, but if not, the repair service is your only solution, because otherwise the phone is as good as dead.

my phone is also reedy to send to service. I have a lot of phone with android but no rom make so many damage to my phone, like this fc** rollback. finger cross, because huawei service in my country without warranty,takes for new motherboard 175 $ . I bought phone for 233 $ with 3 gb ram..... This will be harsh and pay(in)ful lesson for me.

Uhh, I am sorry to hear that. But yes, I had the same harsh lesson. They will be forced to changed the motherboard too, cause even they won't be able to re-flash the whole system. Though, what I did to have the warranty not declined, is I brought the phone to the service and said that - "The phone received and OTA update through the updater, I didn't look much into it and just went with it, pressed on update and everything seemed well. It worked until the moment where it installed and restarted, and now the phone is stuck on Huawei logo and you can't possibly do anything with it, not even turn it off." - and that's it. They will have to repair it under warranty because there is no proof left that you had rooted it or done any other installations not authorized by Huawei.
Best of luck!

I know that i read somewhere how to manage to this oem lock. I was 50 % right.
https://forum.dc-unlocker.com/forum...61751-huawei-mate-9-mha-l29-erase-frp-problem
Some user got the same problem that you have and flash boot.
But truly if u don't have "your device has been unlock" only bootloop on huawei logo, is more simple to send it back to warranty and play dump.
I have now "your device is unlock" and i pray for miracle.

I am exactly in the same situation with the difference that I don't have Fasboot! How do you get to Fastboot? Mine hangs on the screen that says the phone is unlocked and the device is booting... Vol+/Vol- and Power doesn't boot into Fastboot and my minimal ADB doesn't recognize the phone in the stages that it hangs...
---------- Post added 16th April 2017 at 12:04 AM ---------- Previous post was 15th April 2017 at 11:52 PM ----------
I have the same situation. I tried everything, Three button method, letting the battery run out completely, Vol+ and Power, Vol- and Power, connected to PC, not connected to PC. Every time I disconnect the charger, and reconnect it starts from 0. I read some other people here have the same problem. Send it to warranty and explain your rollback process unlocked the bootloader somehow (I mean the phone does do a lot of sh*ty sh*t, so this shouldn't seem very odd as well!!!) and hope that you get a repair/replacement and after that sell it on ebay hoping some stupid people like us in the first place will buy it and spend your money on a phone more reliable!
I managed to access the fastboot using the 3 button method in cold boot. Hold the Power key until the screen goes off and then release and hold down the Vol- key and immideately connect the usb cable to PC right before it vibrates or exactly when it vibrates (it's a matter of timing), and bingo you are in fastboot and you can flash system.img, recovery.img, cust.img, cache.img and boot.img from there, but this is not how I revived my phone. I used the 3 button method again when the phone was charged for like half an hour or so and the did the same cold boot trick and I could boot into the force upgrade environment (strangely this still didn't work whitout connecting the usb cable to PC), but it somehow didn't want to read the UPDATE.APP that I had in dload folder on my SD card and wanted to have it from my PC (I just felt it nad there was no indication of it ) so then I installed the DC Phoenix tool and payed 15 euros to be able to inject the complete UPDATE.APP to my bricked phone and the installation went well to 99% and failed, but I rebooted the phone and I could boot normally. Just to make sure I did a factory reset afterwards. Hope this helps.
Cannot get into Bootloader
Hey there!
Essentially as stupid as I am i flashed the Rollback Image at Android 6.0 too, because i wanted to get rid of C900. So now my phone is stuck in the Startup screen too. As mentioned here, I wanted to unlock bootloader again; The Button combination does not work, and if I want to start in bootloader via ADB, it just says "waiting for device"
i am really desperate and i don't know what i should do now
Thanks for the help
EDIT: Somehow managed to got it into Bootloader. At the moment i am unlocking it. Where do i get TWRP and the needed things? Please help, i'm just some noob who doesn't know how it's done
EDIT2: Solved, got Stock Recovery Re-installed, Flashed with the Force Update Method the Main Package of the Rollback (so not the temp rollback data), and worked. But Still C900 and no Google sign-in possible. Someone know how to solve?

Phone dead after try to Reboot to Recovery from Power Menu - please help :(

Hello,
I got a Moto G4 with the LineageOS version 7.1.2 from the end of May.
I wanted to reboot to recovery, from the power menu options. Never thought that something like this may happen.
The only sign of life is the blinking LED while being connected to AC or USB port of PC (it goes fast on and off).
The key combinations don't do anything (even if I hold for 30 seconds). So no possibility to force restart? Access fastboot? Boot menu? Anything? :crying:
Never had a weird issue like that and don't find anything on google about it.
Any ideas? It is the only phone I got, would be soooo bad if it is somehow dead now.
Try holding the power button down for 2-3 minutes, this may invoke a hard restart which may break your device out of whatever state it's in. Then you may be able to reboot as normal.
What TWRP recovery do you have?
Thank you so much, after 2 minutes the phone restarted. I always thought the time needed was 20 seconds.
You saveed me <3
What might be interesting, my phone still consumed battery while it was off, went from 100 to 14%
I also had the same issue yesterday but I did a hell lot of things to flash bootloader again
I first searched xda Moto forums ,there I found 1 thread where in I had to blank flash some file using Qualcomm drivers installed in pc....
Then I was able to boot to bootloader...this was a different bootloader I had seen...but I cud see bootloader version B.***
In bootloader the recovery did not boot
'Your phone did not boot' was d msg
Then I tried flashing fastboot roms of Moto g4 plus
1st I tried mpj 6.0
2nd npj 14.11 7.0
In both above cases partition flash gpt.bin failed...preflash validation failed....!
So I tried fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Then also it failed ......unable to initialize partition table...!
I loses hopes and worried that I need to go to service center
Then I saw that the same rom which was there was to be flashed
Then I fastboot flash latest rom npsj14.4...
This time I was able to flash partition gpt.bin
Then I successfully flashed bootloader.img ,
Then when flashed boot.img again I faced ' preflash validation failures...'!
Now I saw mobile bootloader was like official Moto bootloader
Finally I successfully flashed twrp.img
This time no error occurred because gpt.bin and bootloader of npsj14.4 worked
From twrp I restored the backup...and life of my phone came back
If I had seen this method earlier only it would have saved 2-3gb data for dwnlding all version fastboot roms and time,the worry I felt...so disgusting......so I feel that reading others problems in forum is very useful for us in future....
ty @ECHO u saved one Junior members problem otherwise had to suffer like me??

Nova wrong Twrp.img and now problems

Hello, my english is unfortunately not very good, so I translated with Google Translate.
I wanted to root my phone (Huawei Nova Can-L11) and used this guide.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nova-plus/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-huawei-nova-t3523473 .However, I have installed a wrong image or something go wrong .
Now the mobile always starts again, about 3 seconds. I briefly see the Huawei logo, and then the orange font that is not trusted.
The problem I had yesterday, but it somehow managed to close the OEM again, and the mobile ran normally.
It was with the power button and soft key, but this is probably no more.
Now I wanted to install the correct image, unlock oem and the error is back. But I can not come back. Adb and Fastboot find no device, and the PC is not synonymous displayed.
Maybe I'm too nervous for the key combination because it worked yesterday. But I'm just scared.
If my PC would display the mobile, I could possibly with fastboot go back to lock oem. But it does not indicate anything ..
Ask for help, I hope I have not completely destroyed it.
hi! i have bricked Nova Plus, after factory reset in TWRP. i use all method flash fiirmware - tel is bricked. i bay credit in DC Phoenix (15 evro) and download fullflash firmware. after flashing and factory reset,phone is boot sussec. after full boot i flash firmware from hwmt. after flashing run factory reset- boot- tel is fully working!
always wait for 10-15 minutes after a flash/reboot...it takes some time...IF after 15 minutes its still on phone booting well...youre in bootloop

Another P9 lite brick

Hi everyone. I'm saying another brick phone because i read many many topics about it.
My P9 Lite has only black screen. (even no blinking light).
I still have access to the fastboot (fastboot devices list my phone).
The phone was with emui 5.1 but I flashed twrp 3.1.1
I rebooted under twrp recovery. I installed C432OemInfo-DUALSIM-P9LITE.zip (I wanted dual sim).
Reboot with android, OK.
I rebooted under twrp and flashed L31C432B130 with the update.app methode.
Phone was installing. THen no LCD anymore.
I'm trying button methodes (vol+power, vol- power, vol+ and - power) with or without wire, but it doesn't change anything.
I tried to flash twrp again (3.1.1 or older) but when i reboot, nothing happe. But I see that Hisuite is doing something (even if it doesn"t recognize the phone).
I tried stock recovery too. Nothing.
Bootloder is unlocked (i still have the code). This is a HUAWEI VNS-L31. S/N 4TE7N17209004690
I tried to download a stock rom. and flash (all with fastboot) recovery, boot, system but not working too.
Putting update.app on sd then vol+ vol- power at the sime time => no effect
Is there a method to get it back ? I saw that there is a de-unlock utility but i'm not sur it will work ?
Thank you
I don't remember P9 lite having emui 5.1 (except id it was a port)

Hi. Sorry for my late answer.
I don't care to pay 15 euros. but I don't know which file to use. I wrote them on their forum but they don't know too.

Nova Can-L11 - Can´t boot in fastboot mode

Hello out there.
since two days i own a second hand Can-L11 EU version. My problem: i can´t boot in fastboot mode to unlock bootloader. Phone ist working with stock rom, adb is working, i can flash full stock roms with power + vol+/-.
Device is starting in fastboot mode via adb or cable and poweron or power + vol-. Immidiately after the fastboot-mode screen appears, phone is starting new, so i can´t place any commands. Fastboot screen shows frp unlock and bootloader locked.
I flashed a new full stock rom but nothing changed, it´s the same as before flashing - rebooting after fastboot-screen appears.
What am i doing wrong? Is there someone with similiar problems? Searched many threads, tried many tips - nothing works. I don´t want to use a phone without root to install a reasonable firewall, that protects me from google and huawei or whatever app spying me out....
Thanks for replies...
