Boot Loop on Huawei p10 lite ( was-lx1a ) - Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers

Hey,
On my Huawei p10 lite ( was-lx1a )
I have unlocked my bootloader, installed TWRP and SuperSu,
backed up my phone via TWRP and installed carbon Rom.
That lead to a boatloop.
I then restored my phone via the TWRP / Nadroid recovery which was not working, after that I installed the stock rom which was not working either.
I am still on a boot loop.
I have have access to TWRP and to Huawei E-Recovery.
On Huawei E-Recovery I always get the message "Getting Package Info Failed".
Is there anything I can do or is my phone done?
Frank

I know this is late and I'm not even sure if this will work for everyone, but here's what I did when my p10 lite was stuck in the boot loop after a factory reset:
1. Take out SIM card and any SD card.
2. Let the battery drain completely.
3. Plug in and start a hard reboot (Volume UP + Power Button until Huawei logo appears, then let go).
4. Select Wipe Cache.
5. Select Factory Reset/Data Wipe.
6. Wait - this will take a while, especially with the battery is struggling to charge.
7. Begin set-up when prompted (language, etc).
8. Insert SIM card when prompted.
9. Start setup as a new device, as you can always do a data restore later (if you have it backed up on an SD card or cloud).
10. Wait, again - this will take a while.
I think why my particular phone was stuck in a loop after the factory reset was because the retailer had sold me an unlocked phone from another country, which they had been quite sneaky about. I assumed it was a Canadian phone coming from a Canadian retailer. Don't make my mistake because having a phone from another country voids any warranty you might have and your phone essentially becomes recycling because no one will take it to repair it, not even the manufacturer - not even if you throw money at them.
Hope this helped someone!

need help with axon 7 a2017u semi bricked

Hi
Yesterday I got my axon 7 and it worked perfect.
Now I was wanted to change the language
So I downloaded as file that in my language
And I tried to install him .
And it worked by the adb software when the axon connected to the computer
So I went to the application in my phone and changed it to my language after USB debugging and developer option is worked
Then the phone was changed to my language and crashed
Now the axon just show the start logo and stuck in restart loop. so I tried to do few thing through your forum , but nothing helped ..
I also cleared the cache through recovery mode but it also didn't help
Its like the axon can't upload the operating system
Thanks a lot for who will help me here.
Also if it possible to send money through PayPal
And if it's legal I will send 30$ to the first that will help me solve this problem
Can you share the link to the file you downloaded ?
Is it compatible with the version of your phone ?
If you can enter in recovery it's enough to save it.

Yea the reason it happened is because I installed wrong adb language on my axon through USB debugging and external app
Now it possible to get into recovery
I just don't know what to do next
I tried few things but I always keep getting errors
You can try to install TWRP.
You will have a lot of option.
There is no option to restor the phone in the official recovery ?

I tried but after the install the drivers and cheak them in the device manager in my computer
The name of the driver was London marshesll something
And not what I saw in the guide - adb something
And it didn't recognize my device
I wrote also adb reboot bootloader
And it gives me error massage
I would be more then happy to give someone 30$ now..
Just that my axon will work
Did you root your phone, or just use ADB to sideload a file? If it's wasn't rooted/unlocked, then a factory reset should take care of it, as nothing done via ADB in that setup would impact the system partitions.
If you used the unofficial bootloader unlocking, then you'll have to follow other people's restore guides.
As @TeutonJon78 mention, a factory reset will do the job youan boot to stock recovery using adb
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Or doing it manually,
- Completely Power off your device
- Press and HOLD Volume UP and Power button.
- once you boot to recovery just use your volume buttons to navigate FACTORY RESET.
- Reboot System
holding up and down at the same time. get to fastboot mode it says secure boot: enabled and device state: locked. then i entered to recovery mode, and press on "wipe data/factory reset" (said it was successfully finished). then i pressed on "reboot system now". still its stuck on the zte logo

I will be honest man. I bricked mine too. Everybody has a step by step guide that they say works. I followed them step by step. They did not work. I have an RMA open on my phone and fedex is taking it to ZTE. Use the warranty. Until Zte puts online the full factory images for us to use there is no real way to fix these things.

Were you playing around with the rooting/unofficial bootloader? It should be very hard to actually brick the device without doing those things, and nothing a factory reset shouldn't fix.
If one's playing around with unofficial modifications, then they should take all precautions to make sure to know how to recover the device before hand. There's still a lot of moving pieces between potentially faulty TWRP bugs and no image file.

Did you let it sit for awhile? First runs after a factory reset can take up to even 10 minutes to boot fully. If it still doesn't work again, check if the recovery menu has another option like wipe cache/davlik, which maybe also needs to run if they have a bug in the recovery code about resetting data. If you hadn't touch anything using the tools on this forum, and none of the factory reset/wipe data/wipe cache stuff helps, then you probably have a faulty phone. Just sideloading an app shouldn't be able to corrupt a locked system partition.
The OP of this thread hasn't yet clarified if he was just sideloading files on a normal system (which should be totally fixable unless his phone has an actual flash problem) or if he had been tinkering with other things first.

The factory reset made my phone lose it's IMEI. Everyone said follow this certain guide. After following that guide and getting more help after that I had an AXON 7 that wouldn't turn on at all. Without full factory images from ZTE I won't touch the software. ZTE can fix it.

Which guide did you follow? A Factory reset form within the stock software or stock recovery shouldn't cause that problem at all, as it should only be wiping data, cache, Davlik, and potentially the "media" portion of the internal storage.

[Solved] Bricked my P9 Lite (VNS-L31) while attempting B130 update from SD card

Hi there !
I just switched from a Windows Phone to a Huawei P9 Lite (VNS-L31), my first Android phone (never too late, I guess?).
I was following the instructions provided in this toolkit (https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...nt/europe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873) to unlock the dual SIM support, as this phone is from Orange and locked to single SIM.
I successfully unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP and rooted the phone. I got to the stage when updating the phone from the SD card is requested. Stock firmware was L31C109B120, new firmware is L31C432B130.
The update seemed to progress well, but actually no, as the phone is now bricked (black screen, screen will not power on, does not display anything).
Powering the phone with any combination of Vol+, Vol- and Power depressed results in nothing at all.
So I installed adb + fastboot and at least the phone is recognized in fastboot. I successfully unlocked the bootloader (again?) within fastboot with my unlock code.
Now I am able to manually flash the boot, recovery and system partitions from the B130 firmware. Unfortunately, this results in nothing, the phone will still not boot to anything else than fastboot mode.
I have limited knowledge/experience with Android phones, so I am kind of stuck now. I have read several topics and fastboot definitely seems to be the way to go, but there must be something that I am doing wrong.
I was wondering whether someone would be willing to give me some insight, please?
Any help would be highly appreciated!
Many thanks in advance,
Regards,
Eric.
[Edit]: I was able to flash the stock VNS-L31C432B130 firmware but not with fastboot... I had to use DC-Phoenix and pay 15€ to do so. Is there a free equivalent to DC-Phoenix yet?
Hello
I think you should disconnect the cable and press on volume + and power erevovery wipe factory, cache. Restart
If it does not work, start again.
With the toolkit, bootloader code, installs twrp,
Go download c432oeminfo double sim.zip Badwolf
Fashe c432oeminfo.zip.
switch off.
Doad b130.
Yes, this solution saved my phone... And u can try flash with fastboot any partition (recovery, system....)

Thank you for your help, guys!
Yet, nothing happens when I disconnect the cable and try to reboot the phone while holding Vol+ and Power. Vol- and power or Vol+, Vol- and Power do not deal any better result unfortunately. The screen remains off.
I believe I should delete/flash something through fastboot, but I do not know what! I believe I have tried everything I could think of, and I am running out of ideas...
Yet the phone is accessible through fastboot, so all hope is not lost, right?
Well, I have good news: I managed to reflash my phone by following this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...green-t3485836
You have to download and use DC-Phoenix to flash a stock firmware to the phone.
The bad part is that it is a paid service that will cost you 15€... but for me it was worth it in comparison with having a dead phone.
I wonder why no one has come up with a free equivalent to DC-Phoenix yet?

(+18) My BANality problem - fatal bricked with bootloader (Huawei Honor 8 Lite)

I know, for this story I can just get permament ban, because will too many forbidden content next (uncensored lexic, spam, probably forbidden links, and stupidy)...
I instruction for unlock bootloader will speak after month, here this situation.
- Unlocked bootloader (FRP also been unlocked), then system instantly rebooted
- (Auto) Broken firmware ("Factory Reset")
- Tried to flash TWRP (https://twrp.me/devices/huaweihonor8.html)
- Reboot to system, but when tried to boot recovery - stucked (but bootloader been alive)
- Reboot again to bootloader, and locked bootloader (for disappear "Unlocked and unthrusted"), OS alive (without Google Play and SIM)
- Again unlock bootloader, but again automaticly rebooted.... He should be try some resets, but because recovery fashed, it not possible
With last steps I lost access and to bootloader. Permamently "Unlocked and unthrusted", and any trying to shut down boots device again. I now awaiting uncharging battery, this may take 1-2 month. But I thing battery can just die, and will NOT any chances to boot or recovery again... I was sentenced to life imprisonment, and I probably owe the same money for which I bought this phone. Not helping adb, fastboot, volume down...
I warned that will many stupidy....
I partially unlock road to bootloader by uncharging battery. It triggered... But need to be accure, otherwise need again uncharge battery.
I avoid partially brick by this TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8...on/recovery-twrp-huawei-p8-lite-2017-t3591762

Possible to upgrade honor 8 lite PRA-AL00 to volte support ???
Hi
How can I upgrade my honor 8 lite so that it can support volte feature
Model number is PRA-AL00
Build is PRA-AL00C00B183.
I didn't understand the point of this topic...is it a warning?
Asking for help?
Or what?
If your phone bricked you can easily restore it... first you have to flash the stock recovery and then just do a factory reset...as you didn't touch any of the other partitions so the rest of your firmware should be fine.
And nothing about the thing that you said about the charging and the battery or shutting​ down make sense...
Huawei devices include two recoverys
One for the emergency and it has two options
(Shut down device and eRecovery)
And the stock recovery that includes three or more options (wipe data and etc)
So you don't need too wait for the battery to drain.
And you can hold the three hard keys for foce rebooting your device and if you keep your fingers on the volume down button and connect the device to pc then it will reboot to bootloader
And for the emergency recovery (nothing good comes with that) hold the bottons until the recovery menu appears.

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.

Recovery from bootloop (and other issues)

Ok, so... this is gonna be quite long to tell, but I need to explain the situation as carefully as possible because the problem I have seems to be very specific and potentially solutionless.
So, a week ago my Samung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (SM-P610, CSC: ITV, which is the Italian Country Code and it's for unbranded devices, since my model is Wi-Fi only), suddenly started to restart itself and it's been stuck for days in a bootloop (i.e. it's stuck on the logo and if I hard restart it with Volume Down + Power, it gets stuck there again). Yesterday I found out that it's most likely a software problem, so re-installing the Android version should fix everything up... right? Well, I did just that but the device is still stuck on the bootloop.
Here I want to be more detailed: firstly, I'm 100% positive that the problem I have is NOT due to a virus, as I've never done ANYTHING that could potentially lead me to taking a virus (such as downloading apps outisde Google Play, visiting risky sites etc.); secondly, I followed a procedure that was supposed to repair my device without losing data. That's because I've stupidly never made a backup and I can't afford to make a factory reset. The procedure I followed consisted in finding the Android update I needed with Frija, and then downloading everything in the tablet with Odin. Also, I'm 100% positive that I made NO mistakes during the installation procedure. The only step that I did differently is HOW I installed the update: I did it with Download Mode, not with fastboot, because when I go into Recovery Mode and reboot the device into bootloader, the PC doesn't recognize my Tab, even if the PC does recognize that it's connected, as it makes the typical sound of when you plug something in a USB port (I have the USB drivers installed in my PC, I think it doesn't work because I never unlocked bootloader). What I get when I reboot into bootloader is "entering fastboot..." stuck screen and the PC and Odin aren't able to recognize it.
My questions are therefore these:
Is there a way to make a backup of the data of my device if I can't boot it (maybe via Download Mode)?
Is there a way to make fastboot work if I can't boot my device?
Is there some other way to repair my tablet that I can try?
Thank you for any help, this is my last hope to find a solution for my problem.

When your device is stuck on an Android boot loop issue then you can fix it by simply doing a soft reset. Turn off your device and the problem will be resolved.
Here are the steps to follow:
First, switch off your device and take out your battery from the phone.
If your battery is non-removable then turn off the phone for 3 to 5 minutes and again turn it on.
This method works effectively to fix the error of the boot loop issue. But if a soft reset does not work for you to fix Android phones stuck in the boot loop issue then you should follow the next method.
Method 3: Reboot System in Recovery Mode​Rebooting a phone in the Recovery Mode is known for fixing several errors and issues on your Android phone. So, if you are unable to start your phone in normal mode or your Android is stuck in a reboot loop, then restart your phone in Recovery Mode.
Method 4: Remove and Reinsert SD Card​You may also try to remove the SD card to fix the boot loop in Android. According to several user reports, this trick worked for them. So, you should try this.
First, turn off your phone > remove the SD card > turn on your phone normally, and check if your phone is out from the boot loop or not.
If it is still stuck in the boot loop, then go for the other solution.
Method 5: Reboot the Phone in Safe Mode​This problem may also occur due to problematic 3rd party apps. If you have recently installed an app on your phone and then you started facing this issue, then remove it from your device.
Or, if you are not sure which app is responsible, then try rebooting your phone in safe mode. Doing this will disable all the third-party apps on your Android phone and then you can easily find out if this is the reason behind this issue or not.
To do this, you need to follow these steps:
Start rebooting your phone.
When the device logo appears on the screen, long-press the volume-down button at the same time.
Now, your phone will automatically switch to Safe mode.
If your phone is no more getting into the boot loop, then it means one of the third-party apps installed on the device was causing this issue.
Now, find out the problematic app and uninstall it to fix the Android boot loop without losing data.
Method 6: Use Custom Recovery Mode​When you find your Android is stuck on the startup screen due to the boot loop issue, then you must try to restart the phone in the Custom Recovery mode. Here is the guide to do so:
To enter into the Custom Recovery mode press the Power + Volume down buttons simultaneously.
Select the “Advanced” option in the Custom Recovery menu.
Next, choose “Wipe Dalvik Cache”. Choose “Yes” when prompted for confirmation.
Move to the “Mounts and Storage” option and choose “format/cache”. It will clear the cache files completely.
Restart your device.
Method 7: Fix Android Bootloop Error Via CWM Recovery [For Rooted Phone]​Maybe you are not aware of this method but it’s a useful way to fix the boot loop issue on Android after the update. Remember that this method is only for rooted phones. Here CWM means ClockworkMod and if your phone is stuck on the Android boot loop then it must be downloaded and installed on phone. Read me

Thanks for replying but I already tried every method listed here.
At this point it sounds like you need to bring it in to a local repair shop & see if they have a fix.
The solution is to wait on the turned on screen until the battery dies completely. Then put it to charge and after a bit using the reset combo (pwr+volume down) once the circular battery charging indicator with the green border comes. (It's a matter of luck, this keeps happening to my tablet and even the official samsung store can't fix it even though they took money to do the same)
