Recover from Hard Brick (900e) - Revive our Z2 WITHOUT DATA LOSS

Hey!
Z2 owners that like to mess around with their phones are prone to get f#ked. I was there and I faced the problem some of you probably did - a hard brick. There are a ton of tutorials on how to fix it, but I believe I found a new way that doesn't envolve resetting it. I have only tried with twice on my phone, so I'm really looking forward to know if it's universal!
Scenario - Your phone has a black screen. The notification LED is on. If you hold the power button it flashes the ZUK logo and it vibrates. If you identify with this scenario, go forward!
1 - To turn off your device (if you haven't already), press the power + volume up. The phone will vibrate, flash the ZUK logo, turn off the LED and turn it on again. Continue holding both buttons. When the LED turns off again, REMOVE your fingers from both buttons right away. If done correctly, it won't come back again and the LED will be off
2 - Hold both Volume Up and Volume Down at the same time. Connect to the computer. You should encounter your Fastboot mode (with your baseband and other info blank).
3 - Go to your email and redownload the bootloader unlocker. Yes, remember that file? Use it. You can use one of those unlock bootloader tutorials online, but if you know what you're doing, here's the command:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash unlock unlock_bootloader.img
4 - Right after that, run this other command
fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go
That's it. You should be able to go to the recovery (flash it again just to be sure). Try it out and tell me how it goes.

not working...phone is gettin turned off...but holding up and down..then connecting is doin nothing..it just keeps on going on and off again

This method worked for me,thank a lot of,great trick

Had the same problem and first i went to download mode by following the the below link
https://zukfans.eu/community/threads/how-to-unbrick-zuk-z2-from-diagnostic-port-900e.2856/
then i downloaded the stock firmware and followed this guide

Both of them helped.:good::fingers-crossed: hope they work for you

Unfortunately I don't think so if you can't get into fastboot. Can you go through what steps you did to end up where you are?

Phone acting strange - Bricked?

Hi
My phone stopped working a couple of days ago, I had been running a custom rom for 2 mths. I tried to restart and boot to recovery TWRP as I was going to reflash the rom. It charegs with no lights, for a day I couldnt boot to TWRP if it did it stayed on the start screen with no options. Today I can get options in TWRP so I tried to start fresh install but intstallation stops at step 1 ?
I have no idea what happened to the phone or why it just died, but dont understand why I can get into TWRP but cant flash rom etc. Also sometimes it say system destroyed message? but still can get into TWRP ?
Any ideas or help will much appreciated really would like to fix this rather than write the phone off.
Thanks

Hi, been playing with this when i have time over the last few weeks.
I have been trying to flash firmware, I dont seem to be able to get QFIL to work for me, it wont reconsise the port. However MIFlash does but I get errors, sometimes it flashes but doesnt end? other times i have had error flashing modem_a or error flashing modem_b (maybe device is locked).
In ADB it says already unlocked. Also I can only boot into fastboot, not recovery so i cant intall anything from adb sideload, it wont boot into bootloader just powers off if i try this. I guess theres no recovery on it now as I cannot boot into it.
Any ideas on where to go from here , EDL? I really didnt want to attempt to open the phone.
Thanks

Try miflash 2019 with stock rom pie latest with edl mode
if bootloader unlocked You can enter edl mode via fastboot with the command 'fastboot oem edl'

Thanks, tried this, says success then just carries on , so i have to disconnect. However when then trying to boot the device it shows Android one logo and if im lucky after a few attempts it goes to the screeen saying Hi There, where you choose your language to set up the phone. However it nows seem to be unresponsve and frozen on that screen.
Im beginning to think its could be hardware issue and phone is just faulty, i really dont want to bin it as its imacculate condition seems a real shame, but it is 3 years old i guess.
Any further help or ideas much appreciated.

Huawei P9 lite Vns L23 bricked

Hello, im new to the forums and i would like to get some help with this huawei on what to do. I recieved this phone already bricked from a friend, so i would like to see if i can make it work again. I dont know how the phone got bricked and i have no idea of what to do. The problem is that the phone starts in the huawei logo and then goes to a black screen and turns itself off again. The phone doesnt make it past that point. I tried to make a reset from recovery, but it doesnt work. In download mode i tried to download the latest recovery, but it says failed to download. In fastboot mode the phone says "Phone unlocked" in red letters and "FRP locked" in green letters.
Any idea of what to do in order to recover the phone ?.

Hello and welcome !
Just thinking you should try to start a fresh & clean install
rolling back to android 6 regardless of the current firmware.
Took a look inside the UNIFIED HELP THREAD but didn't find
any L23 rollback package...
However, I found another LINK that looks promising.
Good luck :fingers-crossed:
For further explanations try asking here.

Hi,
you should use the follovinq commands in fastboot mode and then post the results please:
fastboot oem get-build-number
fastboot oem get-product-model
fastboot getvar version
fastboot getvar vendorcountry
Can you access Recovery ? (Power + Volume Up)

Use ADB commands.
Open developers option and turn on the USB debugging. Connect your device to PC in MTP/FILES mode. Run command
ADB reboot bootloader
(the device will reboot to fastboot mode)
Now you can type fastboot commands.

Oh, sorry, my mistake . Okay, install on your PC "Minimal ADB and fastboot" , open it , connect the device in fastboot mode, and run commands.
