Hi I am new here.
With you guides and all I have successfully rooted and unlocked the bootloader of my phone.
I saw some people had problems unlocking bootloader on 1.17 firmware, so I unlock bootloader while I was on 1.16 firmware.
After that I flashed twrp recovery and I recovery I got option to root so I even rooted my phone.
Now I want to do firmware update to 1.17.1234 and then 1.17.1531 and then android M.
Can someone tell me how to do this ?
I read that this canot be done through twrp recovery.Also I am not receiving ota due to unlocking phone.
so please provide me links to ota package to, I'm asking for ota package which is small than firmware package available on asus site.
If other ways to update tell me please

1. Download ZE550KL's Stock_boot_recovery.zip
This zip contains stock signed recovery.img and boot.img. Extract it and copy both .img files to the folder where you have adb and fastboot files.
Download correct firmware for your ZE550KL of the correct SKU. You can find your SKU on your phone's box.
WW SKU : Download ZE550KL's firmware v1.17.40.1531 for WW SKU only
Let me know if your phone's SKU is not WW
Copy the firmware zip (UL-Z00L-WW-1.17.40.1531-user.zip) to your external sd card.
2. Connect your phone to computer and Reboot phone to fastboot mode.
3. Now run the following commands
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
3. Third command should reboot your phone to recovery mode.
Now, in recovery mode-
A) select "wipe cache partition" then select yes
B) select "apply update from sdcard" then select "UL-Z00L-WW-1.17.40.1531-user.zip" and finally select "yes"

This is the safest way to upgrade to MM. This is exactly how I upgraded to MM yesterday. You will lose root once you flash 1.17.40.1531. But you can reroot by flashing twrp and supersu again
one we unlock the boot loader is it possible to re lock it
Help me
i followed the steps but from last 15 min it is stuck on verifying update. plz help

Reboot to fastboot mode then execute
Code:
fastboot erase system
Then flash 1.17.40.1531 zip from recovery. "Verifying update package" message will last for 2-5 mins.
Once you have flashed .1531 update you should reboot to system finish setup then flash MM ota. MM ota will be stuck at "patching system" for 15-25 mins. That is normal
Im almost on the same boat, so OP any update if you were able to fix your phone using the instructions on this thread?

The error comes up when the bootloader is locked. Is your bootloader unlocked?
If it's unlocked follow the guide by fireball0093 on getting to stock firmware and recovery,.

hello
I have the same problem but with the bootloader unlocked and when I try it, it comes out failed remote failure
i have done a month research and found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRa97F14RKE&app=desktop
it's not in english thou u could make use of the links in the description not the video. even i had the same preflash validation failed error with an bootloader version 81.12 with bootloader status 0 on my xt1602. just flash it like u flash a stock rom. the reason for our error is we still didn't have the proper stock nougat 7.1 rom for our device. roms available in the internet are not working but this one works. be sure not to downgrade your'e phone and take an ota coz. the bootloader can't be downgraded and when it installs an older ota boom phone is bricked. make sure u flash some blank flash files of harpia before doing this. first u need to soft brick ur device from hard brick that have occured
my issue with xt1602 appears to be incorrect (I can't really properly comment on this) blankflash - I get stuck with 0x69 CID and phone suggests using verizon tools (while the phone is just RETIN originally). At this rate I can't re-hardbrick the phone into Qualcomm loader (qloader for "qboot" tool to work) so I can't even flash stock rom provided in Your, @keerthi perumal, link. So I am currently at a real loss here with non functioning device. My only hope is that someone actually helps to re-hardbrick device - No combination of fastboot commands (and different versions of adb&fastboot) to boot into "edl" (fastboot reboot edl) worked for the thus far.

Hi,
Got Bad Version of b370 by ota. So I just flashed TWRP nougat. after that I flashed the update_data_full_VNS-L21_hw_eu.zip from here:
update_data_full_VNS-L31_hw_eu.zip
as explained in point 3 of second step:
[GUIDE][NOUGAT]INSTALL V4A/MAGISK/ROOT/TWRP/D2W/... for p9 lite
Now b370 is installed but with twrp. Now Update b380 over ota is available. I want to get Back Stock Recovery. Has anyone a Link for me to flash b370 only Recovery? Or is full b370 flash necessary? I prefer only Recovery doing b380 Update via ota later.
Thanks

Use Huawei Update Extractor to extract recovery.img from update.app, then flash it and you can safely update to B380.
Where can I get update.app ? B370 was OTA. And a small update.app for repair...
Have you got a Link for b370 ? Only flashing Recovery or boot too?
Thanks
Can I take VNS-L21C4321B370 from here:
FULL B370 Version
Do I have only to flash recovery.img or boot.img too ? I don't want to change oeminfo because I have dual sim and I want to keep that.
please reply.
thanks,
Klaus

FASTBOOT shows: PHONE Unlocked, FRP LOCK.. Bootloader can't unlocked, because it tells bootloader already unlocked.

Heyho,
1st u should read this, because this is the P9 Lite Dev Section... U should ask the next time those questions in the P9 Lite Question & Answer Section...
--
U should try to unlock the "FRP-Lock" because if it's not unlocked u may not be able flash anything via fastboot nor unlock the bootloader it self. After u have unlocked the "FRP-Lock" u should try to flash the recovery.img u have, if it's still not working, try to unlock the bootloader again and repeat the flash.

Sebastian

Well, under developer settings? OEM unlock?^^

If u don't know how to unlock the bootloader u should avoid those modifications... - because, here on XDA are billion guides which show u how are things done, but proofed through ur posts u haven't read only one of it.
Also, if u have a L21 why u flash a L31 cust IMG? Because some guy wrote a simple guide right?
Sarcasm off, based on this thread u should inform u about android before following such noob guide's...

Ok, then this might be ur last chance^^
1) boot into twrp
2) open a cmd prompt to the device
3) navigate to ur adb installation
4) type the following commands:
Code:
adb push "path/to/the/stock/recovey" "/tmp/recovery_stock.img"
adb shell "dd if=/tmp/recovery_stock.img of=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/recovery"
If u get an error that the recovery can't be written, well, then i don't know how to help u. Because if u can't flash the recovery this way, the loader will be really locked. The only solution then might be, call Huawei customer support and send the device to an service-center.

Sebastian

it sounds clearly that u flashed a L31 cust (data.zip) on ur L21 soo...
And about the "inform before do those things", i mean in the main case, if u really flashed a L31 cust on a L21 u should check those things before u flash those files. Because, if u really did that, u have now a locked device which look like this:
boot = L21
system = L21
recovery = TWRP
oeminfo = L21
cust = L31
now how the system merge the files (if i'm right):
boot - build.prop
system - build.prop (override the boot in some cases)
custom.bin (links to another build.prop) - (override the last values)
cust - build.prop (override the last values)
as u can see, u have now an mixed system of L21 and L31 settings... This maybe cause the problem with the update.app because the update.app have also some checks running before installing, and if it can't determine which system u now really have, it will do the wrong "patchings" etc...
-
So this should not be an personal attack
-
Hope u can solve the prop based on my last post, i linked at the beginning of this.

Sebastian

easiest way is to flash your oeminfo through twrp, install update.app of stock rom (i know stock mm is around here somewhere, don't know about nougat, just search around), and install the ota's, if they're available

Heyho,
as u quoted ur self and mentioned already by me, I don't have any links... I have read about that somewhere on the i-net... Just use Google... - Also, if u flashed really the recovery2.img, maybe u are not able to update from now on... because u flashed the erecovery instead of the recovery.
I never tried to flash the recovery2.img as normal recovery... So I can't help u anymore.

The 1st thing you will need to do on any locked device is to unlock the Bootloader before you continue.
To unlock Bootloader you will need to use any of the Huawei paid services in order to do so.
Several are available for that and will need to check for that online.
now i unlocked my dvice and
i flhashed it with this method after they dead
and i flash twrp
and i flash oeminfo-p10lite-Emui 8 C432.rar with twrp
and now i download th full ota firmware but still cant flash it whith hwota method thay tell me chen they copied the updat fille that have no more space can you halp me plz
Try different Firmware. Sometimes there is a problem with that. Try to search for others that are good as well.
