Stuck at 99% Factory Reset when trying to relock the phone - Honor 8 Lite Questions & Answers

I was trying to root my huawei honor 8 lite. However during the root process installation of super su went into boot loop and i was not able to reboot the phone properly. So i ran fastboot oem relock to fix the issue and the phone went into factory reset. Since then phone is stuck at 99% factory reset. Hard reset / volume down + power button or any other option. The phone always goes to factory reset after showing up huawei logo. It stucks there at 99%. Is there a way to install the factory firmware using SD card / external storage? I'm not able to connect to the phone using fastboot or adb bootloader. Please help. If possible please provide the step by step guide to the installation using dload method.

Messed up bootloader

After installing and uninstalling safestrap, i wanted to do a factory reset and try all over but now it boots into fastboot mode and fails. RSD lite also fails at stage 6. I then have to power it down and it boots up normally. How do I fix my phone to stock with no root?

P9 lite bootloop

Hello,
i have tried to relock the bootloader using the tool SRKTool. The operations completed without errors.
Now, the phone is in bootloop and i am not able to enter recovery to do the reset.
The only way to turn it on is to wait the smartphone is completely discharged, but i can't enter the recovery as well.
Somebody has hint to have this issue solved?
Thanks

Honor 8 Lite PRA-AL00 heavy brick, need help

I had EliteTWRP 3.2.1-0 and restored the official rom from twrp recovery but it was stuck when trying to first-time configure the phone(it wouldn't get past the wifi setup). So I went into twrp to try and format everything and try to flash a different ROM and I faced another problem. Internal storage couldn't be mounted. I wanted to fix that by flashing the twrp 3.1.1 because that worked for me before. I got in the fastboot mode but it said that the phone is locked. That was strange to me so I tried unlocking the bootloader with "fastboot oem unlock [my unlock code]". The prompt came on screen asking me if i wanted to unlock boot loader and factory reset and I said yes. Then my phone restarted and is stuck on "Your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted. ...mod=restore page... Your device is booting now...". From that point it's stuck on that screen and I can't get into the recovery or fastboot mode. I tried the dload method(holding volume up volume down and power button) but that did nothing.
Please help.

Bootloader locks itself, can't restore via fastboot

Hi,
recently my friend asked me wether I can look at her P8 Lite which wasn't working after beeing left unused for some time. Basically when she got a new phone this P8 was left in box for a few months and after turning it back on the screen included in attachment appeared. https://imgur.com/a/WcvNByN I'm not new when it comes to unlocking bootloaders and all that stuff as I was doing it many times on another devices so I tought it will be easy job. Well, was I wrong... What I tried so far to recover this phone:
1) I obtained all necesary data to get the bootloader unlock code from Huawei. When I want to unlock the bootloader it works but after I reboot the device it goes back to "Locked" state.
2) It does not boot to recovery with buttons combination.
3) It does boot to fastboot but as I said bootloader locks itself down after reboot.
4) I tried to place UPDATE.APP from various firmweares on SD card and update it that way, it takes extremly long but with this metod it boots to some kind of MIUI recovery in which I have 3 options: wipe cache, wipe data/factory reset, rebboot system. Depending on firmweare it allows me to wpie cache or/and wipe data but reboot system always fails taking me back to this rescue mode screen.
5) Finally I tried to flash stock rom by extracting files from UPDATE.APP via fastboot. It flashes everything except recovery and boot which gives me fastboot error: "FAILED (remote: flash write prim vrl failure)". Interestingly I can flash TWRP recovery without error but when i try to access it whit buttons combination it fails and goes to rescue mode.
Device was stock and unrooted before this. I'm kind of out of ideas, I searched a lot of topics without any conlusion on this, if anyone could help me I wolud really appreciate this. However I think there is no hope for this phone maybe someone here would be able to help.

Oh no... You should contact Huawei and don't tell them that you tried to unlock the bootloader. Your phone may have a thing named "Huawei eRecovery". Launch it, it will download and flash stock ROM.

I had the same error on my Huawei P8 Lite 2017 but I broke it myself.
The only way I was able to fix it by not taking it to a store was to use DC Phoenix,but it costs 20 euros for a 3 day license.
It was worth it though,since it did first of all lock the bootloader again,and it bootlooped at first but then I went to eRecovery and it installed the latest update and booted up.

I solved it
- exhaust mobile battery by doing bootloop without charging
- when battery is empty, connect usb cable with all drivers installed
- now try to bot in faastboot (power+vol Down)
i am sure after one or two attempt you will gee to fastboot
- now follow below guide:
c.mi.com/thread-2251485-1-0.html
in above URL i got error while restoring twrp backup.To resolve it first make backup of your corrupted rom device.Then using file explorer on PC remove all files.And replace all downloaded one.Delete all backedup files first.(Mind it)\\
Enjoy
If unable to get into fastboot, get battery zero and retry, Dont loose hope.Dont use any special method to zero battery.Simple let it restart
