Hi there.
First of all i want to tell im not native english and i am a total noob at rooting ,etc but anyway i did it.
My phone still "works" ( fastboot and TWRP ) but noting else.
phone : Huawei p9Lite Dual sim EU model VLS 31
What did i do ?
Downgraded my phone to andriod 6.0 ( found tut on "XDA )
-Unlocked phone
-Installed TWRP ( also found on XDA )
-installed magisk and the magisk zip file , everything was ok, greenchecked at safetynet. ( tut on reddit )
- installed root folder brower
Then it went wrong, terribly wrong. I wanted to move a file to my system folder but i always had a error moving the file. Digging deeper i noticed its because read/write issues of the folder. I tried to change this but noting happend. I noticed some more options in the bottom of the pop up where u can change the permissions of the map and i checked them. My phone went black and OS did not booted anymore.
I tried to recover my phone but still it does not work.
At TWRP i am unable to mount system and Cust.
I also dont have no more backup, for any reason it got removed from my SD card.
What can i do now to recover my phone?
I like to start from scratch again, with the official software on the phone.
Thanks a lot !

Hey bro, just restore stock by dloading B160 update.
There are plenty guides how to do it.
Even in my Unified Help Thread (It's pinned in the P9 Lite Q&A subforum) >Post 5. (Unbricking...)>EMUI 4.1

From Huawei Russia:
http://consumer.huawei.com/ru/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=41906
Download
The same Official B141 with embedded SuperSU
Download
The embedded SU version will work only with the force update (three buttons) method; after installation it will ask to update the SU binary when you open it, update and restart.
Source
Lollipop.?
Edit: never mind, it's kitkat
First impression: (I did a local update)
1- smoother than the B137 rom
2- Camera improved than B137
3- Battery usage is good as B130 & B120
Root procedure remain the same as before?
Good to know.. 2 maybe stupid questions.. : I'll just flash it from Recovery? And root? English language as well right? Thanks

OK i reply to myself
1 - you need to be on STOCK recovery... (so i went back from CWM to stock )
2 - install the file
3rd install again CWM and then install Superuser
everything working
So what's different with this version than B137?
never mind managed to get it from work
Hello. I'm in V100R001C00B127 without root. Can I install this firmware? It will root my device directly?
with this version of firmware battery life is just amazing, 137 was terrible for me
I just try to local uodate .its start updating from beginning but fail in half way.why?
I don't root my phone and stock recovery.I am on 137 right now
We can we expect this firmware for OTA in region Sweden ?

Same question :S
I guess I've got the same question. I'm on 137. I've put this on my internal SD card as well as my ext SD card and went into update mode. It does the usual and looks like its updating but at around 90%-95% it just sit frozen for hours. When I unplug and reboot I'm still on 137 with no changes. I've also put this in the download folder under the Hauwei systemx86 folder that the suite software created and tried restoring my device with it. The software doesn't seem to find this package as a restore. I guess I'm gonna let the PC suite software make a backup and see what it names it and just rename this package to whatever it names my backup then try restoring with it. I'll get back to ya with the results. If you have any other advice I sure could use it. Cuz no way in hell I'm porting or building a ROM without a custom recovery.

I was on 137 and simply copied update.app file into DLOAD folder of the SD and it worked like a charm.
I suggest you to re-download the (big) update.app file, directly from Huawei website (russian) and linked in the post above.
i did the same as above and it worked for me
OK. I just didn't know what folder it was supposed to go in. But I did download the one with SuperSU built in and put it in SDcard/DLoad then went to Settings/Updater/Local. And flashed it like that and I'm all good now. I'm on the 141 update with Root and SuperSU was built in. Now,......is it safe for me to use flashify or some other apk to install CWM even though I have not unlocked the boot loader yet? I sound like such a noob (which I'm not its just this phone and its root/boot loader/ recovery methods are so different coming from LG, Samsung, and Moto)? Just trying to be cautious.
Does the force update (three button) method completely wipe the device?
I have serval proplems now i need help plzz
1# my phone is rooted and with xposed firmware and CMW Recovery
I got some q to ask
First i have no sdcard so i need to ask how can i make a backup of my Rom into internal cuz every time i try with rom manger it said can't find sdcard or cant mount
Second i need a way to flash XposedDisabler.zip with pc i downloaded flasher pc utility and it ain't working.. I rebooted and all xposed mods were still working tho
And i need a easy way and i meant by that not through adb and typing codes xd to copy files even when i got a bootloop at least a way to make a factory reset through recovery but make /date is safe
Last Q is i got bootlopp when i downloaded G2 xposed with tinted is tinted not working at all cuz I'm afraid to try it again or that caused by bleed mod and tinted together.
Oh i almost forgot i downloaded Andriod Tweaker Pro and last time i changed build.prop codes i got my self a bricked device and a dead cat xD so.. Is it safe ? Or at least can i backup and restore build.prop through CMW without fashing new Rom?
I Got a Flashable Zip From LeTV Forums & I think Its Ported From LETV Chinese Firmware ,
Installed & tested , its Working Good , You Need Rooted Phone Or TWRP To Install The Same ,
After Getting This Settings , Screen is More Nice to the Eyes ,
Activated Colour Mode
1. LeEco
2.Vivid
3.Natural
4.Soft
Soft is More or Like Night Mode ,
Zip Is From : drive.google.com/file/d/0ByEOR9M5bXAtX1NRZ0dTbUN4Y3M/view
I Dont Know Who Is The Maker , But As Per Letv Forums Big Thanks to " CheduSietesiete "

Thank you, I'll try it.
Yes it works, waiting for the fix of the Gyroscope (X).
Thanks again.
Is it possible to get the phone rooted without TWRP?
Edit: I asked this question because whenever i install twrp my fone gets the recovery brick. But here's how i used this thing to fix the colour method.
First I installed twrp and installed this zip. Since my phone was stuck in recovery loop so I installed the stock recovery which fixed the recovery loop and went to settings to see if it worked. and It worked. I kinda hated the screen for the colours. i can finally enjoy the phone at its Most

I Dont Know Why you are facing Recovery loops Also assuming that you are not tried this recovery
I am Using This Recovery & Working Cool
I Will Give you Quick Guide To TWRP Installation ,
Use Link androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=65930
Download Tools 2.7 , Which Is basically For Cuoco Firmware But Sufficient For Our needs , Extract Files & Put It in a folder , and run batch Files ,
As per Your Prevision Post , Assuming that You Unlocked Boot Loader , if not Unlock Boot loader First , You can see Batch Files for Everything , Lastly Run Flashrecovery.exe , Which Will flash Custom Recovery to your Phone
Then report back to me ,
Regards & Good Day

basically i got stuck cause i cnt boot into the recovery without quick boot , after i restored a old backup , but i forgot it had a fingerprint with a pattern so i did the google FRP to wipe it , it gave me access to the recovery witch i have RC8 twrp but formatting and reinstalling does nothing it just keeps allowing it to do everything but when i try to boot to the normal system it keeps putting me back into recovery ?!?
plzz if anyone know of anything i can do let me know the phone was already rooted and oem unlocked but atm im still just trying to get it back to normal =/
Try this.. Turn off the phone and press and hold volume down and power until you see the Lg logo. Release only the power button for 1 sec and then repress. Once you see the white factory reset screen you can release the buttons. Scroll to yes and then again on the next screen. This will boot to twrp. You need to enter recovery this way and no other way. Once in twrp restore your backup. After finished do.not boot yet. Go to mount and make sure system is mounted then go to the twrp file manager and go to data/system/users/0/fpdata and delete the db file. Then back out to data/system/users/0 and deletes settings_fingerprints.xml and then back out to data/system/users and delete the three files that say locksettings.db. This will remove your Lock screen pin/pattern and allow you to setup new fingerprints. Now try to boot into system.
the thing is when i did the format though googles crap , it delete all my files on the system and my sd card so there went my backup D= , do u have a plan backup or anything else i can do atm i am pretty screwed , if u or anyoone else helps me fix this i dont care about giving 10$ , im quite sad about this , i already can install roms but since it wont get past the boot and goes into recovery its not letting it install anyfile , i can get into the terminal of twrp and the file manager within it but i cant find anything like that , i dunno if its in a different spot or anything
i tryed what u said and nothing happends , i did what u said and it keep going into the recovery , i cant seem to get it to boot to that menu
even a bacup of the system boot may help im worryed i may just have briked my phone but i can get into the twrp recover menu and nothing else besides the fastboot witch its unlocked
im keep trying many things , i dunno if anyone has a backup of the tmobile stock recovery boot or any of those backups made when doing the rooting process , i did have them but stupid thing formatted n i lost everything =/
or if somone can backup there system image boot file and the recovery maybe flashing that may help
if anyone thinks they can help me add me on skype mirajane.takami its a old gaming name i used to use , but im taking my surface tablet to work n gonna keep reshearching ways to fix this cause i have my pc n adb aswell all other tools =/ ima have a spare i can use to chat
just uploaded a vid to show anyone exactly whats happening . this is right after i did a full wipe as well as a factory default though twrp and installed a stock rom i found on here , it just boots to recovery without me doing anything and does that whole flash thing? im not mking it go into recovery its doing it by its self --> vid https://youtu.be/kGQYA0SgdjE

Have you tried flashing a Rom in the Development Section? You can also go to jcadduono how to root thread. He has a stock img you can flash using TWRP's "Flash Img" feature.

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to updgrade my P8 from emui 3.1.1 to at least 4.0,
I'd like to finally get Marshamallow ?
Did you figure it out ? I'm not comfortable rooting etc without being sure !!
Thanks in advance !!
Assuming you have the ALE-L21
Download the over for your device:
Single SIM: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1084/g104/v88493/f1/full/update.zip
Dual SIM: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1084/g104/v88317/f1/full/update.zip
- Extract the UPDATE.APP somewhere.
- Inside the root of your SD card create a folder named "dload" (obviously without the quotes) and put the UPDATE.APP file there.
- Go to Settings > Software upgrade. Tap the menu button, select Local Update and click the UPDATE.APP shown.
A reboot prompt will come up, I trust you know what to do
Test
Hi,
thanks for the info but I got the error message "Software install failed".
I already tried with a few downloads from the official website.
Seems like nothing is working.
I've read somewhere that the B181 is harder to update..
you must change vendor/country first with Huawei Multi tool

Yeah, you need to change vendor to europe.
Get the tool from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/tool-huawei-multi-tool-team-mt-t3523923
And follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyRCqO8BPgs (but choose the stuff needed. The device is p8 lite and europe region (hw/eu)
then update will work.
The thing is that it needs unlocked bootloader and stuff, it seems. Maybe you're stuck if you don't want to tinker
You can do it without ROOT with the TWRP method. Search the forums for unlock bootloader and TWRP
UPDATE; Get the latest full from here: http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/?firmware_model=ALE-l21fra&firmware_page=0 and then do the OTAs
Hey thank you so much, I'm gonna try this as soon as I can.
I gotta admit I was beginning to let go --'.
If it's not Marshmallow the only other way is to install TWRP. Honestly there are no real dangers to it if you know what you're doing.
Well that's the thing I don't know anything about Android ? . I have to take some time to really get into it
You don't need to actually understand the internals, it's not like you're developing for it. Just look online for articles and esoecially on XDA. Basic terms like rooting and the partitions of an android device e.t.c. The basis of tinkering is flashing zips and images in TWRP and knowing how to recover with a backup. Goodl luck
