bootlooped mate 9 lineageOS at booting - Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi all,
I've installed LineageOS on my mate 9, using their own tutorial, and with a stock recovery.
Everything ran smoothly for a couple of weeks. Today however my phone would not turn the screen on, just minutes after it worked fine. So, I rebooted manually by holding the power button.
Did not work, but instead: my phone is stuck on the 'your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted' + your device is booting now... screen. But it does not boot.
I can't go into the stock recovery mode, using power + volume up.
I can get into fastboot mode, but my pc (which I used to root my phone) does not recognise it using adb, while it did earlier. sometimes a fastboot command (fastboot devices) works and lists a code.
But if I try fastboot flash system and the filename for the lineageOS img, it sends the first package but does not seem to write, writing system 1/4 lasts for ever without anything happening. The phone also stays in the white fastboot screen during this event.
Can someone help me solve this? Is there a solution?

In fastboot mode does it tell you the phone is still unlocked and frp is unlocked?

Did not try that! It is at a repairshop at the moment, they feel it is a software problem, but I guess mainly because I dropped the word 'custom rom'.
I've got a couple clues that suggest it might be a fried chip: I get Command not allowed errors when trying several fastboot commands, and I also get a remote:flash write failure when I try to flash a ramdisk.img or system.img.
Hope to hear from the shop today or tomorrow, and will update afterwards!

I have this exact issue on my huawei y6 2018, i can access to the emui recovery mode, and have bootloader unlocked.

[ TF300T ] How to unbrick when wrong recovery menu was flashed.

This is how I unbricked my TF300T that had no rom installed and a wrong bootloader/recovery combination. (4.2 bootloader with TWRP recovery JB version). Hope it helps.:good:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have the same on my TF300t and A700 - but it seems i just managed to get my TF300t back
i tried all fastboot (reflashing recovery, boot, system etc) no dice - especially since writing system was done after 3 secs all the time.
Here how i restored my TF300T JB
download your appropriate lates firmware from Asus (WW, US etc.) and extract the zip twice so you have your blob file
install your device drivers if needed (i used Google SDK ones) (and as a Tip Win8 sucks for Fastboot stuff so try to get Win7 Vista XP for this)
Reset your device with a paperclip/needle (about 2 cm down of your sdcard slot) and hold vol-down to enter fastboot
(the folowing i did at least 10 times already but didn't erase misc)
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase cache
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system c:\adb\TF300t\blob (this is my path - your's may vary depending where you stored your blob) ((also this was the first time i saw the loading bar while flashing)*
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
* it also took a lot longer as it should:
C:\>fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system c:\adb\TF300t\blob
erasing 'system'...
OKAY [ 1.695s]
sending 'system' (800935 KB)...
OKAY [133.121s]
writing 'system'...
OKAY [153.973s]
finished. total time: 288.789s
im now setting my tab up to get back to CM (which initially caused this sh1theap due to autoupdate error, same as my A700 got bricked )
hope i could help you out!
cheers

This part was me now -ozkrtech <--- (credits to me)
In addition to that, if you simply can't see your device using the command "adb devices" go check on device manager if you see a device called just "Transformer" with a yellow icon indicating it needs a driver, and manually update driver, select "browse my computer for drivers" and then select let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer" there you will see a list of like 3 different drivers, one of them says "bootloader" and one of the others says "adb" (i think they self explain) but just in case try with each one of them you can keep on switching drivers until you get your device recognized by the command "adb devices".
You should be asking yourself... whats the right moment to do an "adb devices" command? well my tablet same as -Buster's tablet had the wrong recovery menu flashed (wrong bootloader version) and it just kept booting into the corrupted recovery (in my case TWRP) with the "can't mount anything" and "what's the password" issue. When you get to password screen just hit cancel and try the "adb devices" commando and you'll see it gets recognized with your device serial number.
Once your device gets recognized by "adb devices" command you will proceed to use "adb reboot-bootloader" command and the tablet will reboot into the menu that had 4 options but now have 3 options and its missing the fastboot option (don't panic) in the last bootloader it is auto-fastboot mode when you reach that screen with just 3 options in it now (yeah is the screen with the RCK option) at this point try "fastboot devices" command to see if your device gets recognized same as "adb devices" procedure, it should get recognized with a different serial number (don't know why, maybe that number isn't a serial number), at this time you are SO LUCKY! now you will follow what I posted at the beginning from that other dude ---> (-Buster) or follow his link --- > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12
And you'll have an unbricked tf300t in no time =) (I personally used the stock but newest Asus ROM) 4.2.1 (10.6.1.27.1) and it worked flawlessly.
**NOTE** don't turn off nor reset your device once you have formatted the partitions, no need for that (don't know what happends but it might get really hard bricked) just proceed to flash the stock rom after erasing the partitions.
I'm 100% positive this will work if your device is in same state as ours. (had TWRP for JB) then updated bootloader to version 4.2 and forgot to update twrp to version 4.2 or installed twrp version JB by mistake and lost fastboot and TWRP is asking password.
Hope it helps. Let me know your status and if it worked for you.
So I am in the same boat as I flashed the wrong twrp. My device shows up under adb devices and I can boot into the bootloader using adb reboot-bootloader. However, once there, I can not get the device recognized with fastboot. I have tried messing with the drivers like you suggested but nothing will get it to show up with fastboot. Anybody have advice on where to go from here?
So extra info. The device bootloops into twrp 2.6. The only way I can boot into fastboot mode is with adb reboot-bootloader and I can get into APX. I can also boot directly into my current ROM (Slim beta 3) by selecting android in the bootloader menu. I have tried flashing proper recovery through flashify, which is says was successful, but the wrong twrp never gets overwritten. Rebooting the device will send it back to twrp.
Thanks if anyone can help
Thanks, man! It took a while to find this thread, but this was exactly my problem. The adb driver in windows was the pre-solution to help get back to the fastboot server in the bootloader. Awesome information. Thanks again!
I have tried "adb reboot-bootloader" and then adb devices and fastboot devices and neither will show the tab listed while the tab reaches that screen with just 3 options. I have uninstalled reinstalled drivers, it does show in device manager as Asus Android Composite ADB Interface but when running the command it will not list the tablet. Any suggestions?
Hello!
A few days ago I tried to root my Asus TF300T because before that, I changed the lcd and the touchscreen from FPC-1 to G01 version. So I had to root and update touchscreen's firmware to 02-3011-4820.ekt. I already updated with last firmware from asus.com. First, I installed a TRWP recovery but was useless since the touchscreen doesn't worked. So I tried to rewrite CWM recovery. I reset it and I don't remember exactly if I begun to install or not CWM but when I tried to wipe data (Vol- + Power), the tablet has freezed. After a few minutes I did a hardware reset (pin hole). Since that, the tablet freeze with "Device Unlocked", Asus logo and nVidia. The device was already unlocked. I don't have any backup from it. No fastboot, no adb. Just APX mode. Is it possible to do something with it anymore? I tried BootTools2, extracted bloobs from last version of firmware, tryed to flash them with nvflash and wheelie but vainly. What is the next step? I'm a beginner!
Remember please I cannot go in fastboot recovery menu, only apx. Thank you in advance!
I can not thank you enough!!! my tablet is now working I honestly though it was done for aha THANK YOU!!!
Howdy, folks. I recently bricked my tablet thanks to a bad install of CWM, but following the OP's guide I was successfully able to reflash stock firmware and the device runs fine now.
However, upon reflashing said firmware, it became apparent to me (from reading various threads in the development subforum), that I would need to downgrade to an older firmware version to reflash TWRP. So I did that successfully, but now I am having a problem similar, or perhaps identical, to that of Bionicbowtieguy, in that ADB appears to be broken for my tablet. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Asus usb drivers, in addition to reinstalling/updating all of the ADB software. Fastboot still works fine, but as such I'm unable to root using Motochop's rooting kit (I know there are other methods out there), nor am I able to flash a new recovery. I have also tried repeatedly reflashing the older stock in the hopes that ADB would magically start working again to no avail.
Does anyone have any suggestions to getting ADB to work for my tablet again? I have scoured the web, particularly these forums, for days looking for an answer, but haven't turned anything up yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Gave back 10 years of my life that I lost once I discovered I flashed the wrong TWRP version. Can't thank you enough man.

Same here!
Thank you OP for making this a topic even if you didn't come up with it you made it a thread that has saved a few people like myself money and headaches. Literally I just stumbled on this thread 10 minutes after I told my wife is be Tablet shipping Black Friday. Thank you sir.
Thank you.
I did this on a hackintosh running OSX since on Win 8.1 fastboot kept crashing.
March of this year I bricked my tablet during that 1 week period where nobody knew that TWRP was broken + fastboot freezing.
I must have tried everything, Maybe that erase misc was the key factor for success.
I was about to sell this for what I could get or send it to asus, now I can use it again!
How are you guys getting your tablet into fastboot mode? I've tried power on with volume down, the reset hole with volume down, and letting the battery die then recharge, then power on with volume down... Nothing. What am I doing wrong?

Indeed. You are a god among men. Thank you so much
This worked! I thought I was out of luck. Thanks a lot.
I accidentally flashed an incomparable version of twrp. It would only boot straight into recovery and I couldn't get into recovery. TWRP kept asking for a password even though I never set one up and it wouldn't mount the internal storage or sd card.
I had to follow the instructions at the bottom to intall the drivers so adb and fastboot to work. After that I followed the instructions at the top.
The only thing different I did was skip the "fastboot erase boot" step. I was afraid that would really brick my device if I screwed up (Does this really erase the bootaloader leaving the device with no bootloader?).
Just wondering how long the fastboot window sits displaying < waiting for device > ? All my drivers are ok and I my pad shows up fine as a fastboot device in windows.
Cheers

They do not sit at all they will go right to it. You must not have the right combination yet. Keep trying.
Took me awhile to get the link.

FIXED!
BY GOD, I have no words for how incredible grateful I am right now! You not only saved my TF300T's life but also a lot of money for me and gave me another lesson of Android insight.
Thanks so much for this!

Hi. I think I'm having the same problem as some of the others in this thread.
Background: Tablet is unlocked, JB Rom (Paranoid Android) was installed since March, along with TWRP recovery. In preparation of installing CM11, I used Android Terminal Emulator to install the latest TWRP from a *.blob file, but I found that the latest TWRP is still not CM11-ready...
Setup to Issue: Last night, I decided I wanted to put CM11 on my TF300T. TWRP doesn't have a compatible recovery out for CM11 (install of CM11 rom fails every time), so I reinstalled the paranoid android ROM, and attempted to get the latest recovery from clockworkmod. On cwm's website, they only have choices for "transformer" "transformer prime" and "transformer infinity" which, when downloaded, have tf101, tf201, and tf700 in their filenames. (No tf300, that is)
So... I attempted to install the tf201 recovery (closest to mine, right?) by renaming the file cwm.blob, and using android terminal emulator to install it, the same way I did with TWRP. The first few times I tried and rebooted into recovery... TWRP was still installed... which was weird to me.
The big problem: Ultimately... when I rebooted the tablet, I just see the initial "ASUS" screen with "The Device is UnLocked." in the top-left corner. When I hold the power button to turn it off... it powers back on within a few seconds, and stays at the "ASUS" screen again. It will not stay off... and will not show anything but the "ASUS" splash screen. (With one exception, described later - "the only ray of hope...") If I hold the volume up or down buttons when powering on the device, absolutely nothing different happens. (since it doesn't STAY off... I've tried all kinds of different combinations of pushing/holding the appropriate buttons for when the tablet comes back on) IMPORTANT: I never see the "three icons" as expected when holding the volume button(s). No RCK, USB, etc... when the unit turns back on, it goes to the ASUS screen, and stays there until the battery dies. As a result... I can't get into recovery, fastboot, or APX or whatever in the traditional way.
Pressing the reset button alone, or reset + volume down has the effect of temporarily turning off the unit and then on again, the same as holding the power button to turn it off and letting it turn itself back on again.
The only ray of hope that I have is that *sometimes* if I press reset + volume up with the USB cable connected to a computer... the screen will STAY BLACK, but the "device connected" sound will play on my PC (Win 7 x64) as if I just plugged the tablet into USB on my computer, and I will get a message that it's trying to install an APX device. However, it eventually tells me that the device driver could not be installed. The screen on the tablet stays black in this case... until I reset it, hold the power button, etc.
So... I'm not opposed to (or unfamiliar with) using fastboot or any other command-line app to resurrect my tablet... I just haven't been able to get it into a condition that I can try something like that yet.
Is there any hope for my tablet? Somebody please help me. I'm open to sending a few bucks via paypal or google wallet to anyone that can lead me to a resolution. That would be cheaper than buying a new tablet... not to mention the priceless value of the progress I have in Fieldrunners 2. lol.
Thanks for your time!

same problem reboot back to twrp
well i may be stupid because i can't understand why i have tried a couple of commands and i still get the same problem reset volume down still goes back to twrp and ask for a password can someone please explain this in alittle more detail and what commands i also get the waiting for device in my commands is there another way to push these files into this device tf201 please help is there a way to do something in the twrp recovery like terminal command

[SOLVED] Bootloop. No recovery. Bootloader locked.

================================
Solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...bootloader-locked-t3212187/page2#post63494201
================================
Hello,
This afternoon, I was preparing to flash Oxygen OS 2.1 through twrp but I wanted to make a backup first. Attempting to load up twrp by holding Vol- and Power, my OPT flashed the starting frame of the boot animation for half a second before turning off. This repeated every 5 seconds. I could still boot OOS normally at this stage.
I decided to reflash twrp so as to make the backups, but on attempting to flash it, I saw that my bootloader was locked. So into fastboot mode I went, but trying to unlock it, it did the same as trying to get into recovery. As soon as I sent the command, "fastboot oem unlock", the screen went dark, flashed the starting frame for the boot animation, and promptly when dark again.
I now can't boot up normally, nor can I enter recovery. I can access fastboot mode, but I can't seem to make any changes.
I've attempted to use this solution as well as several other similar ones with no success.
I've had my OPT since 17th of August with absolutely no signs of trouble until this afternoon.
To me, it seems like it could be a hardware issue, but I'd hope it would last more than 40 days.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I'm not sure what I was doing, I was going to flash different ak kernel as my wifi didn't work.
HOWEVER
I read someone suggesting if you still have bootloop after trying the qualcomm recovery tool, try booting to fastboot and use: fastboot continue
my opt booted nicely to hydrogen os and after I shut it down it no longer bootlooped and I was able to get to recovery.
I'll post this to your reddit thread too, maybe it might help somebody one day, hopefully this works for you too

Mate! that worked for me too!
However... It only seems to skip the bootloop for that power on. After power off, it returns to the boot loop. I also still can't unlock the bootloader and can't access recovery.
But at least it can boot into OS with fastboot continue!
Thank you.
Weird, after the first successful boot I rebooted and a chinese menu prompted me if I wanted to unlock the bootloader, and I did.
Maybe you should try different recovery packages.
But I'm glad to hear you at least got past the boot loop

Nono I mean different qualcomm recovery packages, the ones with MSM8994DownloadTool, I also replaced the stock recovery in the qualcomm package with twrp just in case if that matters

but it might have also been this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B14IjYN3PtxcSlJ5aGQxX3JERHM/view?usp=sharing
It's also worth mentioning I flashed both a few times before I tried the fastboot continue command so try both a few times and see if that helps, also I replaced the stock recovery with twrp in both recovery packages before flashing.
Edit: And best of luck, I'm rather confident your OPT is going to work properly again.
Boot Loop
I got the same problem.
Phone is rooted and i can't unlock it in cmd, just reboot itself when i try it.
The only way for me to even start the OPT is to (volume+ and power), to get to fastboot mode, then run "fastboot continue" twice in cmd.
If i reboot the phone it get cought in a boot loop where i can see the logo, reboots about every 2 sec.
Is there a solution for this? I've been searching 2 for two days now.
I don't care if i have to reset the entire phone.

I finally got my OPT working again, tried Qualcomm recovery tool, wasn't able to complete the "MSM8994DownloadTool"
So i downloaded "A2001_14_A.03_150805" in a guide from technobuzz.net/unbrick-oneplus-2/
A similar but it does a entire wipe of the phone, nothing left at all. WARNING!
But i was okey with it.
Well the phone was in Chinese when it was all done but to change language was no problem.
I finally managed to solve it on mine. I had been cautious over the past weeks to not let it run out of battery or get turned off while away from my computer as
Code:
fastboot continue
was the only way I could get past the boot loop.
My core issue to solve was that I couldn't get it recognised as the USB Diagnostic 9006 under Ports in Device Manager. I installed the driver from here manually by right clicking the /qcser/x64/qcser.inf file and selecting install from the context menu. Then, I powered off my OP2. While only holding Vol+ (not power or Vol-), I plugged in my OP2 to the computer and it was finally recognised as the 9006. Then using the recovery tool from the prior link, it installed and rebooted my OP2. The moment of truth was when it rebooted and didn't enter a boot loop!
Then with the Chinese recovery prompt, I selected the top/first option and it brought me to the welcome/first setup screen of OOS.
It wiped the internal memory, and installed OSS 2.0.2 (don't know if coincidence or not as that was my prior OS as well). Now to install twrp and update to the latest OOS hopefully without a hitch.
Happy to finally know it wasn't a hardware issue like a failed eeprom or a dud nand controller as my prior phone (Samsung Note 10.1) died to a failed nand controller as well.
Will update with news of twrp and OOS, but I feel that should go smoothly now. Thanks to the others that helped in this thread too!
Yeap, all good!
Flashed official twrp through fastboot and batch installed OOS2 through 2.1.1 patches and SuperSU. Everything working like new!
Phew.

I've successfully rooted my T-Mobile LG Leon, and I've successfully installed TWRP, but for the life of me, I can't get the phone to boot into recovery. I can RE-boot into recovery from TWRP manager, but I can't actually boot into it from a fully powered-down state. I've tried every combination of the power and volume buttons I can think of, and nothing ever works. Download Mode works, the factory restore menu works, but I CANNOT get into recovery. Is there a very specific set of instructions anywhere that I can follow?
EDIT: Okay, I finally figured it out: You need to actually select to do a factory reset, and it throws you into the recovery menu.
Yeah, it was because the stock recovery doesn't exist as a menu, when you're running stock and enter the adb command "adb reboot recovery" it will reboot to the "factory reset mode" and the actual file of this mode is stored on partition named "recovery". Choosing the factory reset option boots the custom recovery because it replaces the said " factory reset mode" and that's the trick.
You can access recovery from the powered off state by holding volume down and power on until you see the lg sign. Without letting go of volume down, depress on the power button before clicking it back in and holding both buttons in until you see twrp pop up.
If you reboot to recovery now, it''ll probally say secure booting error. Simply go to the Developer options and enable OEM Unlock and that'll make you boot to it
You boot in the download mode by holding the vol up 10 seconds and during this 10 seconds you insert the usb. The LG Leon brand screen will come on a minute then it will go into download mode. It says not to unplug until firmware is done updating. So I guess you should have your custom recovery or whatever before you do this. I have only got this far, and thusly it sits. All Dressd up with no where to go...haha

can't find "enable OEM" at all in developer options. have phone hooked computer, and on, it's sending and receiving. No OEM. Isn't there.
See, I'm trying to root this without using KingUser. Since I found that it was pretty easy to do from the very beginning with Samsung, and I just don't see any way to do it here. I can't get ADB Devices command to see the phone.

I think I have the same issue, but I rooted my phone using kingroot, I haven't tested the adb commands, I just want to use twrp but no luck, it says Secure booting error and I can't find OEM Unlock option in Developer Menu.

I got a good way to get it rooted with SuperSU. Ran a command window script I found out there. It worked and now I have SuperSU root. I also figured out how to get into recovery. It looks as though my phone is not the standard LEON that people are talking about here. It's got a few designations, and the T Mobile site advertises a Leon that seems very similar and is called by the name most are using..
Anyhow my LG Leon is designated as a H320. It also carries a v10 desiganation, v10b. The v10 is variable from a-h or a-i. It would seem that once it is updated to 5.1.1 android it gets upped, and becomes unrootable. Mine being a v10b was rootable, but it took me a while to get used to it, and make the command window work.
Unfortunately for me one of many things I tried before getting it rooted, was ADB fastboot. And since this told me to wait for too long, I pulled the plug on it and pulled the battery to get back into "normal" operations. Perhaps I should have waited, because after finding out a few things about the phone, I discovered the true way to get it into recovery:
The real way into recovery for my phone, is to (from power off state) hold the volume up, a few seconds, then plug the USB cable which is going to the computer into the phone. While holding the volume up until it comes to recovery. This will activate the recovery, (Now for me it activates that fastboot command line...and does nothing else). This was the bit of information I could have used from the beginning, that no one knows. All these places tell you to hold the power and volume up, and then let off power when the screen changes, but that never worked even once. You just hold the volume, and plug the USB from computer. This works.
For me it goes into a "FASTBOOT" header at the bottom of the screen that never changes.
I believe it does this because of my unsuccessful attempt to fastboot it before. And it does not have the right driver to get recognized in the computer. So I'm screwed as far as the recovery goes now.
It is rooted though. And it doesn't seem to have any alternate ROMS available anyways. so we're dealing with the loss of the recovery.
When I do try to use an app such as TWRP manager or CWM (ROM) Manager to reboot into recovery, I get a "boot certification verification -1" error instead of the fastboot line at the bottom of the startup screen and it boots normally from there. So many people asked about this "boot certification verification -1" and NO answers are available anywhere online. So that's where it stands for this phone right now.
Anyone know what driver I should use to get the thing recognized in the computer? I have downloaded a zipped fastboot tools, and it won't get recognized inside the driver manager as "android" only as "unknown device" so I can't use that route....I'm thinking about doing a factory reset to try to erase the fastboot attempt. That may not help though. Anyone?

I dunno, I have the H340AR, with this phones happens the same that with the Samsung Galaxy Ace 3, there are, 3G versions, 4G versions, regional versions, etc.. GA3 have 7275R, 7275B, 7272L, 7272T, I dunno, maybe if we could get a device tree for a H340 and an H320 we could make some TWRP and CM compiling, but I just can't figure it out how to make a device tree or even where to begin..
I successfully rooted my H340AR with Kingroot, it works like a charm. I haven't tried fastboot and I tried to install TWRP in this link https://dl.twrp.me/c50/ but I get that F error "Secure booting error". I guess I have my bootloader locked, so I'm trying to figure out how to unlock my bootloader.
I'm trying to contact with some developers and see if anyone can help me build a device tree.

Hi, I have that same phone H340AR LTE. I rooted it with Kingroot and also tried to use TWRP to gen into recovery and got that Security error. I only pulled out the baterry and turn it on again so it booted normally. I made a factory reset because I read that it could be a problem of OTA firmware update. Then I installed TWRP and BusyBox again and tried to get into recovery from TWRP option. When I did that, it showed up the Android lying in his back with a red triangle. I pulled a out the battery again and yes, it seems very dumb and simple but it worked and could reboot the phone.
However, I can't get into recovery from TWRP yet. I read that the problem with us not being able to unlock the bootloader(we don't have the OEM option) is because Leon has Lollipop 5.0.1 and OEM is for 5.1.1

lg leon h345 lollipop 5.1.1
This device has a locked bootloader. If you flash a custom recovery on it, it will not boot into recovery, but will report a security issue. You will lose all recovery functionality, including factory reset, adb, fastboot. If your phone fails to boot, you have a brick.

ALE L-21 dropped into water, can't get to recovery mode

Hello everyone!
First of all - this is my first post here, so if I'm doing something wrong, please, correct me.
Three days ago i dropped my ALE-L21 into water closet (don't ask). I dismantled it and put into rice for 2 days. Today I decided to check if phone will start normally, but there is a following problem:
The phone is stuck into bootloop - after turning it on I see only the brand logo and after every 1 minute it vibrates for a while, the screen goes black and the brand logo appears once again. I tried to get it into recovery mode, but nothing happens. (none of button combination: holding power, power+volup or power+volup+voldown works. The phone always try to reboot)
I plugged it to PC and the only thing I can do is to get into fastboot (bootloader unlocked, phone rooted, but USB debugging is off, so adb doesn't see the device).
Any ideas of how can I fix that? Maybe just volume button is broken? Should I try to clean volume&power flex? Maybe there is an alternative solution to turn usb debugging mode on? Then I could try to recover it manually, with adb.
Flash the correct firmware in fastboot.

How can I do that?
I can run fastboot by power+vol_down, but probably USB-debugging is turned OFF. ADB doesn't see any devices plugged in.

If you pc doesn't recognize phone with adb or fastboot commands in fastboot you propably have some broken hardware.
But you can try this stuff if it recognize something.
Go to fastboot and flash TWRP with "fastboot flash recovery (recovery_filename_here).img" then try power + vol up, if it doesn't work you can try to extract UPDATE.APP app and flash system.img, boot.img, cust.img in fastboot. If TWRP works use this to re-install stock firmware https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-4x/how-to/install-emui-4-1-4x-4c-g-play-g-play-t3515702.
Ok. Fastboot recognized my device, so I installed everything what you mentioned. Everything went 'OKAY', as it printed in cmd, but still there is no change. Whatever I am doing it freezes at brand logo and after some time reboots.
But I used branded ROM, which I downloaded from huawei website - it is the only one that not gives me "balong" error.
Any ideas before I give back my Huawei to the official service? Maybe there is some way to diagnose volume_up button?

Nova Can-L11 - Can´t boot in fastboot mode

Hello out there.
since two days i own a second hand Can-L11 EU version. My problem: i can´t boot in fastboot mode to unlock bootloader. Phone ist working with stock rom, adb is working, i can flash full stock roms with power + vol+/-.
Device is starting in fastboot mode via adb or cable and poweron or power + vol-. Immidiately after the fastboot-mode screen appears, phone is starting new, so i can´t place any commands. Fastboot screen shows frp unlock and bootloader locked.
I flashed a new full stock rom but nothing changed, it´s the same as before flashing - rebooting after fastboot-screen appears.
What am i doing wrong? Is there someone with similiar problems? Searched many threads, tried many tips - nothing works. I don´t want to use a phone without root to install a reasonable firewall, that protects me from google and huawei or whatever app spying me out....
Thanks for replies...
