Phone doesn't start anymore? - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Frist off, I have a Huawei P9 Lite, Model: VNS-L31C432B394 I tried to flash SuperSU through twrp and after rebooting it was stuck in the Huawei loading screen, so I factory reset my phone and it still wouldn't start after 20 minutes of being stuck in the Huawei loading screen. I then accidently went to the advanced tab in TWRP and checked everything then wiped it instead of Formating Data and it then said that there's no OS installed and now it won't even get out of the "Your phone is not trusted..." screen. I tried to flash the update.zip from the site getdroidtips (Size: 1.26gb) for my Model but it just says "Software install failed the update package does not exist". I don't know what to do anymore, I really need help.
I also tried different flash stock roms from different sites including VNS-L31C432B411, how I did it was flash the update.zip, then update_full_VNS... and then update_data_full_public... and restarting it and then going into the eRecovery, it just said "Software Installa Failed!" once again, I also tried putting the update.app in the dload folder and restarting, going into eRecovery but it kept saying "Software install failed!"

Hey,
I see you f**ked up after the other....
Maybe flashing unSU with TWRP and wiping cache+dalvick cache would have solve the problem.
First wiped everything, then tried to flash a non "FULL OTA" firmware ( 1,26gb instead of +/- 1,9gb normally )
and finally tried to flash a wrong firmware ( B411 )...
Now if i'm not wrong you have a dual sim device ( correct me if needed ), so try to reflash the firmware
you got before.
Dowload VNS-L31C432B394 - FULL OTA MF - with Firmware Finder or other sources and use HWOTA like explained
in this thread.
Another method could be doing a rollback trying to revert to your marshmallow initial firmware.
Hope you will get rid of this..
All the best

Softbricked phone, no idea how to proceed

EDIT:
It seems since there is no Huawei P8-Subforum, my thread seems to has been postet to misc. Development. Im sorry about that!
Hello there,
I spend the last three hours trying to get the device (L09) to work again. I made the terrible mistake to update my phone with custom recovery (TWRP) installed. My target is to upgrade from B191 to Marshmallow.
The main probleme here is that I don't own a micro-SD card plus the internal storage contains a dload-folder which I can't delete.
My current situation:
- The phone is bootlooping at bootanimation
- I can access the fastboot-mode, stock-recovery and upadte-mode
- My internal storage (intenal SD-Card) contains a folder named "dload" with the B200 firmware
- I flashed the stock B200 recovery.img and boot.img (extracted with Huawei Extractor)
- When going to update mode the phone proceeds to 5% and then shows "Software install failed!"
I don't really know how to proceed from here on. I tried to flash TWRP again to clear the dload-folder and place another firmware, but somehow twrp can't be installed anymore - flashing shows "OKAY" but when booting into recovery, the same old Huawei recovery is booting. Also I'm confused as to when to leave the USB plugged in or disconnect it.
My current plan is to revert to 170 firmware to start completely over. I downloaded the 170, 200 and 313 firmware.
How to proceed?
EDIT:
I flashed recovery.img, boot.img and system.img from B170 and now the boot repeats at the Huawei logo. After flashing boot.img and recovery from B200 I get to the bootlogo again, which is stuck.
Solution:
After flashing boot.img from B191 the B170 firmware booted successfully. I got a few random reboots at the start, but they quickly grew less and now I have a somewhat stable B170.
Upgrading to B191 or B200 didn't work, tho. I'm trying to get behind that now.

Help unbricking my huawei p8

Hello everyone, I have a huawei p8 vodafone it branded.
I decided to root it, unblocked the bootloader and everything was good so far...
I tried to flash a custom recovery but failed for some reason and I decided to stick with stock recovery.
Now I installed an app as system app and my phone got bricked. my fault..
At first It went trough a bootloop and I was not able to access the huawei recovery or the fastboot, after a while it started to boot into a error message where it was saying that it was impossible to read user data partition, and give me some choices like backup, update to the latest version, or data factory.. I choose data factory twice but it went trough a bootloop again only to give me back to the same page after a while.
I can access huawei erecovery but it gives me getting info package failed when it says that I have to update it with wifi.
I can access fastboot mode and it says me that the phone is unlocked.
I really don't know what to do as I'm not expert, I tried to read various topics but never saw anyone with this message where it was saying impossible to read user data partition..
I had emui 3.1 5.1.1 with vodafone it brand... In case I have to flash it which firmware I should look for? Or is there a way to get my phone alive again without flashing?

Hey thank you silvano, can you tell me which firmware I need to flash it? Is it okay if I use a b170 even if I had the 5.1.1 emui 3.1 version?
Nothing, I can't seem to make it work, I've flashed the boot.img recovery.img system.img and cust.img successfully(b170) but still stuck in bootloop, I can enter bootloader mode, and recovery.. but when I enter recovery it says me that I need to update it and I can't update it because it says me that getting info package failed... tried with different wifis, same result..... The excatly same thing happens with the b132 stock rom too and I cant factory reset or even wipe cache if I dont make this update first as is the only option avaible on huawei eRecovery.
As last attemp I tried to force an upgrade with putting UPDATE.APP inside the sdcard and press vol up vol down and power for booting but this combination of buttons doesnt work...
I'm hopeless, I really don't know what to do... any help would be much appreciated

Hardest Bricked my P10 Plus. Can't even turn my phone off.

However, if you are watching this, it means ur phone is bricked with huawei p10 lite/p10/p10 plus
Read the replies and follow the instruction noted by @Blackball and his links.
Then you will find you self a way to restore the phone.
Thanks again to @Blackball and rest of you guys, much appreciated for your help.
What on earth is Yoroot?
So, You can't enter fastboot mode am i right ?
Do you connect usb cable to your devices before press Vol- and Power button ?
Current Situation
After the battery was dead, i actually can enter the fastboot and i used TWRP 3.1.1 for huawei P10 Plus from github. double wiped my device and by far i have entered the system normally.
However, the ROM wasn't official and i lost my warranty for unlock my huawei phone. And the custom service from Huawei said that they don't provide any official ROM Since it's Android 7.0 .
This ROM is really crappy that i can't delete/uninstall any Application i installed.(It gets reboot everytime i try to and the Application is still there even i just tried to Delete/Uninstall).
Worst of all, some options does not work properly in "Option" menu . (For example i can't access to "Developer mode" that everytime i press it it tabbed back to the former menu.)
I really hate this crappy menu so i tried to search on the internet for P10 Plus ROM so far i get B133 update ROM i can find and i tried to install it from SDcard by pressing VOL - and VOL + and Power buttom.
It says failed to update system at 5% while updating/recoverying the system.
and the ROM which i'm using was found in HUAWEI's official fan forum from Club.Huawei.com a forum belongs in china.(Rooted rom B140).
Right now seems the only option for me is to find a better ROM than this .(At least won't get me so many bugs like this one .:crying: )
and Thanks for your comment "Bigbearxl" it worked as normally it should after the battery was dead then i recharged it.
Yet Right now the PC doesn't recognize the device though Via-Usb because it's not Huawei official ROM and Hisuite helper only recognize their own ROM and the rest Phone helper or ADB can't recognize the device while The Phone is Booting normal .
And Reply to "Craphead" Yoroot is a special Root tool for Huawei P10/P10 plus made by chinese from Huawei Fan Club forum.
New Update
After rewrited boot.img though fastboot mode from https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/help/root-huawei-p10-p10-t3589946 thanks to "yury_z, " i can start to delete files with current system, but it's still crappy that it doesn't even have camera
So i think i will try dload method to recovery my phone with firware that i found in forum.
Failed
Looks like i have to stock with that bit longer
dload with update.app method failed. and recovery TWRP install missing md5.
Unless i get System.img or i guess i can't get another system.:crying:
This work for P10plus too

Maybe you could also try installing stock firmware with funkyhuawei, it's not for free though. But dload method never works on P10/plus unfortunately.
thanks @Blackball and @Craphead. i checked both of your method but didn't work and this new twrp 3.1.0 i downloaded displayed sd card 0mb. and i followed poster's step and missing one file.
However i might found a useful Thead that might work and i'm gonna try tonight.

That is what I wrote.
It seems that firmware finder work for P10/plus now.

@Blackball not sure you what you mean by that, do you mean that you can actually use it to install firmware on p10/p10 plus now? If so how did they manage to get around the authentication issue?
I debranded my phone from L09 to L29 DualSim with this guide. It work with moded stock recoverys.

well i tried your method but there were some file that can't be downloaded from that post so i used another and,eventhough with complete files, the method i posted and i was going to use it tonight. Failed.
did all the steps from update.bat indicated and all worked fine till the last step that it says " automaticly install system" and the phone shows error at recovery.(similar to dload method because it automaticly create dload and exact those ROM files)
it indicates a big red " ! " sign and stopped. basicly i'm back to "No System Status"
The only method wowrks for my "P10 Plus" is " flash system system.img " method.
yet i don't know how to exact system.img boot.img recovery.img etc from those stock firmware like those chinese.
i have some of their rewrote roms (it's crappy because i has no default camera and it's for chinese P10 Plus A.K.A VKY_L29) .
Yet i can't find any System.img on google by far.

I haven't tried your Firmware Finder method , i think i can install crappy system.img then try your Firmware Finder method.
Because right now i wiped my system and i'm without system :crying:
Guys This Thead https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315547
tells you how extract flashable rom files from firmware update.app.
It should work but i only made to Unknownfile XX .img and i can't download his script "HuaweiFinder" from his google drive.
Holy Crap it worked, i Extracted system.img and other img from update.app by some Chinese scripted unpack script. and I'm trying to restore my device though fastboot mode with adb.

well just tried your method and at last step it says installing failed. then i reboot entered rec mode choose wipe/factory reset
wiped till 50% and stopped, it can't factory reset.
Before this method fastboot mode was " Phone unlock " " Bootloader unlock."
Now it's just "Phone unlock"
now i'm stuck at boot loop "your device is booting now" then it rebooted and back to "your device is booting now" again then automaticly goes to Erecovery mode. I have to shutdown device for now and hope i can find some solution tomorrow :S
When you try this :

It's important that you have the 3 zip files from your wanted firmware and rename them correctly. Don't mix with another firmwares.

i did this method yesterday and, well, i can't get update_full_VKY-L09_hw_eu.zip from the link : http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1475/g104/v85029/f1/full/filelist.xml . only Update.zip and Update_full_data.zip . the other one "update_full_VKY-L09_hw_eu.zip" i had to get it from another webside (it's also b133)
it shows a big "!" sign at the last step . i did everything it tells and tried both sdcard&script way to flash twice both rebrand&same brand update.
after the failure i can't enter "Vol +" and "Vol -" and "Power button" to do dload method . When i try to do that it just goes in Recovery mode.
In recovery mode i tried to wipe data/factory reset. It stopps at 50% which is after wipe and starting to factory reset at 50% it failed.
i try to flash in system.img and boot.img yet i still can not enter the system and stuck at bootloop.

soft bricked my phone

hello!
i have a p9 lite vns-l21c432b380 dual sim
some days ago i contacted huawei to get the bootloader unlock code. after that i unlocked it via fastboot, flashed elite twrp recovery 3.2.1.0. everything working fine til now. i then tried to flash from twrp latest lineageOS release but it doesn't seem to be working as on reboot i get stuck on "you're device is unlocked and it can't be trusted" screen with the options to boot system and erecovery. it just stays there, no sign of lineage os.
i tried to restore at least the stock rom via dload and 3 button method and to flash extracted bits frome the update.app file via fastboot with no success: i always get a "update installation failed" error, with the only option to reboot the phone to nothing
what am i doing wrong?
update: i tried to flash oem info for l21c432 dual sim from twrp, then retried to install via dload and 3 button method. no luck, still "software install failed" and nothing else
OEMINFO: ftp://XDA-Dev:[email protected]/Oeminfo/L21/L21_DS_C432_by_EasySR.zip
FIRMWARE: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1164/g104/v66034/f1/full/update.zip
i'll try to flash both via fastboot, since the recovery won't now mount data
thank you
fastboot gives me "command not allowed", flashing via elite twrp 3.1.1 "invalid zip format". what am i missing?
You need to flash oeminfo with TWRP. (Unpack the arhive then copy the oeminfo.img on your phone)
And also , unpack update.zip .
Then make a new folder on sdcard called dload and put update.app there.
Then boot into dload mode and it should work.
i'm not sure of how it worked. now i have TWRP 3.0.2 installed and stock ROM VNS-L31C432B150. some how it changed from l21 to l31.
do you think there's a way i can flash latest lineage os or should i stick to b150? in case how can i do it?
thank you for patience and time

Huawei P8 Lite Bricked

I've recently repaired my Huawei P8 Lite after it's screen was mutilated and such and I decided to try flash a different ROM onto the device, I wiped my entire device and restarted it instead of flashing the ROM I needed to and I got led into a bootloop which presented me with the Huawei logo until the device just died from battery loss.
I was able to get myself into TWRP before the bootloop occured everytime the phone auto-restarted and I tried flashing the ROM which was Resurrection Remix V.6 and in the end near its installation I did notice it printed out two lines saying "Unknown command" and then continued to say it finished the installation succesfully but when I restarted my phone, there was nothing but the bootloop.
I ended up getting frustrated at left my phone on my desk untouched and now I'm presented with a Rescue Mode panel when I try to boot into TWRP to try and flash a stock ROM. The panel presents me with a message asking me to
Please update system again
Func NO : 11 (recovery image)
ERROR NO : 2 (load failed!)
I'm able to hold my power button and volume button up to boot into Huawei eRecovery but it's as useless as this phone currently. Please note I've tried methods involving connecting my phone to my PC and troubleshooting it from here but my PC does not recognize my phone at all, it never did whilst it was running the stock firmware either. Any help is gladly appreciated.
My phone model for anyone wondering : Huawei P8 Lite ALE-L02
Update :
I've managed to flash TWRP onto my device again after enough times battling the rescue mode, I no longer get the function errors however I have discovered a problem that runs deeper than just a few missing .img's. I've re-flashed Resurrection Remix again with gapps and no errors were presented within the installation processes, I rebooted my system and got put straight back into a boot loop. I decided to go back into recovery and to my surprise there's nothing inside my internal directory besides an empty TWRP folder.
I'm assuming that my device is not properly installing/saving the files where they need to be.
