Hello, I'm new to xda, in fact I registered just to ask for help. My p9 lite got stuck on huawei logo, when i try to turn off the device it just reboots 2 times and then just stays on huawei logo. I can enter fastboot and rescue mode, but i have not enabled usb debugging and oem unlock on the device earlier. To be honest this is my first android device, in the past i used only windows phones, so you could say i'm completely new to this. Any suggestions on how to recover my phone or flash any rom into it? I'd be very glad if someone helped me find the solution to this problem. Not sure if i made a thread in the correct place, direct me if i'm mistaken
There are few different versions of P9 Lite, look at the back of the phone to the bottom to see the numbers beside VSN and let us know.
1) Also when the phone is turned off plug in the usb to a computer or charging adapter
2) Hold down volume up & power
3) Let go of the power button when you feel the buzz while still holding the volume up button
4) Download latest version & recovery.
5) Go to Settings>Developer Options>USB Debugging On
5B) If you don't see Developer Options in settings, then go to Settings>About Phone>Build Number & ( tap the Build Number untill it unlocks)
6) Update us on the status, hope it works out.

tried to enter recovery, still not work. can't go to developer options because phone is stuck on logo, can't power off. couldn't find any solution that works anywhere, been searching for more than 6 hours, still no use. phone model is VNS-L21 forgot to mention earlier
What exactly were you doing before this happened and does your computer recognize your phone when plugged in at all.
Try holding volume up & down together & plug phone in when it reboots on you, & report back with what you see. If anything at all.

I tried to install nougat update, computer recognizes it only in fastboot. holding volume buttons haven't changed anything still no progress. the thing is i had installed nougat a moth or so ago and it worked fine, then rolled back to marshmallow and now this. i'm pretty sure i tried to install correct package, because it was the same i had installed earlier
Did you download a adb tool on your computer that have the 'fastboot.exe' file? If so open that folder,
Have the mouse curser hover in that folder, hold down shift & right click the mouse
Open command prompt
Connect phone as is in fastboot mode
Type adb devices & press enter
Type adb continue & press enter
Hi,
I have the same issue as ellanyx.
my phone can only be stucked while booting or if I connect my phone to a computer, I'm able to boot it in fastboot.
as ellanyx, I didn't enable usb-debug nor OEM unlock option...
so when I'm in fastboot, I type the command "fastboot oem unlock xxxxxx" (hopefully the different data needed are the correct ones mentioned on the box of the phone) I get this error message:
C:\Users\Dieu\Downloads\SRKToolHuawei-STABLE-V1.3-20160619>fastboot oem unlock xxxxx
...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.016s
and off course the other options like "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "... doesn't work.
I can't use the adb commands neither.
when I type the commande, as mentioned above, "adb devices" or "adb continue", nothing works.
So I'm a bit desesperate
do you have any solution for this kind of issue?
thanks
Dude, so the last firmware on your phone was MM or N? If it was MM you should put stock firmware appropriate for your model in dload folder on SD card and put volume+volume-power, and thats it. If you stack on N,....then I dont know because dload method doesnt work with N, or maybe works if you can find stock firmware with recovery for N.
Regards
Unfortunately I can't update with the 3 button update otherwise it would indeed solvemy problem.

Probably you didnt have correct Oeminfo for MM if dload method didnt work....Try to conect phone with Toolkit and follow procedure for flashing oeminfo and custombin, after that flash stock recovrry and b161 via dload metod. You will find it on forum here.
Regards
the procedure from SRK toolkit?
would it be possible to provide it? because I can't unlock the OEM and I didn't tick the USB debug think.
Maybe problem with the ps not phone so u can not connect with adb
Try with different pc you must have flash oem with fast boot without enable adb from phone if u in fastboot
I can only boot my phone in fastboot (vol- + power) and not in recovery (vol+ + power).
also when using the SRK toolkit, the first screen tells me to be sure that the usb debugging is enable, which I haven't done...
if I'm not mistaken, fastboot is to use the fastboot command and recovery the adb commands
the connection with fastboot works on my computer, the link is made. however when I type the command to unlock the OEM, I get an error stating that the command is not allowed.
when I use the SRK toolkit, with the different questions, he tries to connect the phone with adb and waiting.... waiting...
is there a command to reboot in recovery but from fastboot? in the otherway around it exists but it doesn't seem that from fastboot to recovery it exists.
thanks.

dload method works on N. I downgraded my phone from unofficial N update back to official MM update using this method yesterday. You just have to enable OEM at developer options on settings.
It looks like people can't be bothered to read the 1st post properly before they reply.
HE CAN NOT BOOT TO ANDROID SO HE CAN NOT ENABLE OEM OR ACTIVATE USB DEBUGGING!!!!
What he CAN do, is go into eRecovery and Fastboot.
With that in mind, I would suggest using the dload method through fastboot.
Also, make sure it is Huawei SRK Tools 2.0 that is used, as it actually asks if you are in debug mode or fastboot.
Note that there is a few bugs in SRK 2.0:
The TWRP recovery file has the wrong filename in the package, so it WILL fail unless you name it correctly.
Also, when trying to root, do NOT use the "P9 Lite" method as that WILL fail too. Use the "P9/P9 Plus" method.
I am trying to set up a complete guide that can restore the phone when it is stuck in fastboot, however I apparently went a step too far...

Boot into fastboot mode and flash a custom recovery by meticulus. Link : meticulus.co.vu
Then whenyou get stuck hold power and vol down button for 2 minutes the phone will reboot and then when it says that your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted then only press vol up key ( dont press power button then). The u get into huawei recovery. From that u should power off the phone. Now get a custom rom by meticulus into your device sd card ( Cyanogenmod 13 is recommended ). Then insert sd card in a powered off phone. Now press vol up and power key and flash gapps and custom rom and you are good to go.

So, MY question:
I have tried 4 times to get Nougat installed, but every time I got the SMALL package (1.25gb) which means it is not complete.
I decided to try ONE more time, but think I have made a serious mistake.
I was on B161 and tried to downgrade to B160 without upgrading to Nougat first.
This has caused my phone to be stuck at boot with the message "Your device is booting now..."
I can NOT get into eRecovery or fastboot no matter what I do.
If I just leave the phone, then it discharge very fast, but as soon as I plug it in, it starts up and gets stuck at the same screen again.
Does anyone have ANY idea about how I can get out of this problem?
UPDATE:
I have managed to boot to fastboot while connected to my pc.
The phone is unlocked but FRP is LOCKED, which means I can't flash anything.
I read about using Miracle Loader to remove the FRP lock, but it can't "see" my phone. Maybe I am doing it wrong?

Hi guys
At first - I tried a method given on this forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/help/phone-goes-to-qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-t3757867
This method doesn't work for me, because after disconnect my PC doesn't recognize my phone.
Phone is in Qualcom HS-USB Diagnostics 900E mode after OTA update (Mi A1 April Update) - strange
So guys... I know there are some magicians who can do almost everything.. Any ideas what to do?
Does MiFlash recognize your phone? If not, try instaling ADB drivers nd disable driver enforcment,
To kick device out of diagnostic mode and into QDLoader you will need either:
1) A "deep flash" cable
2) Take the phone apart and bridge test points
There are guides online for both, you can Google. You can make deep flash cable yourself fairly easily with a spare USB cable. Testpoint location is found easily via Google and can be bridged with tweezers or small flat-head screwdriver.
I did NOT have success with deep flash cable myself, I had to use testpoint method (and sadly broke my LCD in the process). The deep flash issue might of been because I was in Windows 10 x64 or on a USB3 port. If you do go that route and can't get it working, try with a Windows 7 x86 VM and USB2 passthrough mode before last resort of taking device apart.
Hold power button for 20 sec then volume down and fastboot will apear
1. install all necessary drivers (adb, qualcomm's HS-USB Diagnostics 900E, xiaomi flash tool)
2. use test point method as suggested by @CosmicDan - lots of tutorial on web on how to do this. Carefully read this before actually attempting it.
3. When you successfully do the test point method you will hear the device recognized sound on your computer
4. when you hear it, open miflashtool and your device should show up in it.
5. if not, reboot your PC. You should reboot your PC after installing all the drivers. See #1. (reboot required)
6. Once you successfully see your device on miflashtool, you can flash the fastboot rom of your choice.
7. (you might get stuck on "Can't receive hello packet" dialogue which will prevent your device from flashing), in that case change the USB port, possibly to USB 2.0 and try the test point flash method again to get detected and try flashing again.
8. Test point method should be done everytime you disconnect the USB from your phone and computer, hopefully you only need to do it twice.
9. Sadly for me, I am still unable to flash stock roms with this method, my problem is kind of unique, after flashing it shows me "Your phone is destroyed, press power to turn off" dialogue. lmao
10. if you get the same message then you dun goof'd. Hopefully yours will successfully flash.
Oh and only one version of fastboot ROM actually revives the phone, other fastboot roms actually puts it to coma (vibrating every one second, no display, no nothing). Only one fastboot ROM allows me to go to fastboot and flash recoveries. But if I flash any ROM (stock or custom) it kills the phone again and I have to repeat the given method and try again with another rom. I think the phone is effectively dead. What a **** phone! lol

Did you do factory flash mode? That's the only one that can recovery it, the other scripts won't flash everything.
Note that because you didn't backup partitions you will also wipe the IMEI, or so I've read (I backed up my whole device via emmcdl before brick so I was able to recover fine without miflash)

Actually I think I got scammed. It is Mi5x sold as MiA1. ****ing chinks! Anyway, I managed to install (Tiffany) on it and now it is booting to boot logo and bootlooping. I can get to fastboot and default (MIUI's) recovery by pressing button combos. But OEM is locked now so I cannot flash TWRP or other ROMs in it. I will have to EDL flash back to that MIA1 ROM to get it unlocked from fastboot. Otherwise MIUI unlocker asks me to link my miui account to this phone by going to settings, which I can't do because it is not booting up.
funny situation.

Fastboot rom for Mi5x because the phone is Mi5x.
Not sure how to title this forum post, but this is the best I got. Forgive my ignorance and lack of knowledge on these topics.
I was trying to root my Axon 7 mini. After some searching to find out how to unlock the bootloader (like needing JDK, older Android SDK version to run android.bat, etc.), I finally got it to work. Ran Recovery to "apply update from SD Card" (can not remember the file right now) and was then ready to load TWRP Recovery. When I rebooted to the recovery TWRP image, it told me something failed and the phone had to be factory reset. I took my SD card out in fear of my data being deleted and "accidentally" clicked the power button. It then reloaded with a password prompt where I typed some random password (1234 because I never set a pin password nor knew what to do here), clicked submit, and then gave me some error; now my phone doesn't work.
The Problem:
- I can enter bootloader, sometimes, but can only run fastboot commands; adb device does not detect phone so can't run adb commands (always says the server is old or something and reloads daemon successfully but never finds my device regardless). Also, I don't think I can get it to run in EDL mode; MiFlash gives out errors too when trying to flash recovery images.
- Recovery mode doesn't appear or work; not sure if the MiFavor command prompts on the phone is recovery or not, but it's safe to say this no longer appears. This is also where I believe the phone bootloops. I can get the fastboot commands to flash a TWRP recovery, but it never actually enters the TWRP dashboard.
- Can not turn off the phone... I think. None of the command options that appear on-phone shut it off; however, when the screen does stay black, I'm not sure if it's in EDL mode or plainly off.
- Device Manager shows the phone as different stuff (namely Kedacom USB Device and Portable Devices/MTB USB Device). Sometimes Qualcomm appears, but it depends. More often than not, when my device does appear, there's either an error code (like Code 10, Code 43) and/or the device is grayed out.
Conclusion:
I just want to get my phone to work normally again, if possible. Currently, I locked the oem to see if fastboot commands could still work and now I'm stuck at the ZTE logo, so can't try to unlock it right now. What are the proper tools, drivers, programs, etc I need to get this phone back to normal? I've scoured the web and these forums for 2 days now with no luck and lots of either missing info or obscure info.
I bought this at Best Buy, so I'm assuming it's US Axon7 Mini version in terms of drivers (not sure if the box specifies any info that could be useful here).

Dear all,
I experienced the same issue with my phone after I tried to flash it with custom ROMs and recovery.
I thought I lost it as I was not able to enter adb mode (not recognized on the PC) or even not able to enter EDL mode with the button combination so not able to do anything with it.
Only watch it boot and display the ZTE logo.
After some research, here is what I had to do to get it recovered.
First thing you need to get is an EDL cable.
I let you search on your favorite site. Mine was a Generic eDL Deep Flash Qualcomm 9008 Cable 2 in 1 for Z3 X/Octopus.
Until you receive it, make sure you have the latest Qualcomm drivers installed on your PC.
You can find it easily.
Then, connect your phone and your PC with the EDL cable.
Press the button on your EDL cable (there should be one) for a few seconds and keep it pressed.
Then, press the power button and keep it pressed for at least 20 seconds.
At this stage, you should have both buttons pressed and after some time, you should feel the phone rebooting.
After 20 seconds, release the power button.
Then, after 10 other seconds, release the EDL cable button.
At this stage, your phone screen should stay black and your phone should appear in the device manager as Qualcomm USBHUB (or somehting similar)
You are in EDL mode and should be able to perform a recovery flashing using tuliptool.
Then I followed the steps I found here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7-mini/how-to/updating-uk-version-zte-axon-7-mini-to-t3717933
If you are still stuck, pm me.
Be patient, all will be fine,

I had a feeling an EDL cable was my only option left given everything I've looked up and the multiple methods I've tried. Wanted to avoid spending money on one but doesn't look like I have a choice given the circumstances - oh well. Regardless, thank you for the response and advice. Have to wait a while, though, to get the cable and test to see if this works.
If anyone else ever ends up in the same royally screwed situation as me, getting an EDL cable - or DIY one if you wanna be cheap and are confident enough to do so - is probably your saving grace.

K, I can get tuliptool to work and run command, but i keep getting a "Failed: Unkown Error" response everytime i run a command. Can't unlock my bootloader, nor write a recovery disk due to this error. does anyone have any idea why this happens?
So I finally rooted my Oneplus 6t from t mobile. I bought the phone from swappa and it worked great. I installed a random rom and it bricked my phone.
I assume it is a soft brick since i can access adb mode but it requires me to power off the phone
and hold the volume keys along with the power button. Otherwise the phone will just boot up and
will be sutck in a continous boot loop. I then tried to fic this issue by using an msm tool found in
the xda fourms. I then entered recovery mode and perfomed a "wipe data/factory reset. I think it hurt more than it helped. Any suggestions on how to unbrick my phone?
I tried using alll three msm tools in this fourm.
when i use the msm tool (MSMDownloadTool 9.0v2) the update just stops after 4 secounds.
Also the update would fail if i were to use the msm tool (MSMDownloadTool 9.0v1 and MSMDownloadTool 9.0.13)
I have tried reinstalling the qualcom drivers but no luck.
I tried deleting the drivers and allowing windows to detect the phone nad download its own usb drivers
but it did not help.
i apologize if i post this in the wrong section. I am new here.
all links and info i followed to attemp to unbrick my phone can be found in this fourm

Okay so I open the msm tool. Then I have my oneplus 6t (t mobile) turned off. I hold both volume buttons and keep holding them while I connect the USB cable to the phone. Its basically in edl mode at this point. Then I press the start option on the msm tool. The bar fills up with green and completes itself. However a number appears that saids "4s" inside of the square. I assume that means 4 seconds left or completed in 4 seconds. My phone is still in edl mode at this time and will not boot up in any menu (normal.menu, boot menu/recovery mode). Unlesss I boot it manually.
And yes I tried a scenario where I held down both volume buttons, connected USB cord, and then let go. I also tried the scenario where I held both volume buttons, connected usb cord and kept holding the volume buttons until the process completed itself but I would get the same result. "4s"

So I finally rooted my Oneplus 6t from t mobile. I bought the phone from swappa and it worked great. I installed a random rom and it bricked my phone.
I assume it is a soft brick since i can access adb mode but it requires me to power off the phone
and hold the volume keys along with the power button. Otherwise the phone will just boot up and
will be sutck in a continous boot loop. I then tried to fic this issue by using an msm tool found in
the xda fourms. I then entered recovery mode and perfomed a "wipe data/factory reset. I think it hurt more than it helped. Any suggestions on how to unbrick my phone?
I tried using alll three msm tools in this fourm.
when i use the msm tool (MSMDownloadTool 9.0v2) the update just stops after 4 secounds.
Also the update would fail if i were to use the msm tool (MSMDownloadTool 9.0v1 and MSMDownloadTool 9.0.13)
I have tried reinstalling the qualcom drivers but no luck.
I tried deleting the drivers and allowing windows to detect the phone nad download its own usb drivers
but it did not help.
i apologize if i post this in the wrong section. I am new here.
all links and info i followed to attemp to unbrick my phone can be found in this fourm

Hi, Falzer. had all but given up and was prepared to head to T-Mobile to buy the 1+ 9 Pro (I almost wish I did not fix my phone... *BUT* I DID!
My issue occurred trying to flash a Magisk patched boot.img to my newly unlocked bootloader phone. I was following an article that alleged one could root the phone without TWRP. I will say this TWRP is your friend; don't dis "him". By the way, unlocking my phone wiped my data so always important to read the whole article first as it was mentioned in the NEXT step.
[Should be including the actual error here - it is found throughout these forums but I cannot recall the exact display. Basically, if you have an unlocked bootloader and then get to the CrashDump screen, follow from here:]
Retrieve the file, boot11.1.1.1.img and download from this thread/link:
OOS stable boot image and patched magisk boot image both for 11.1.1.1.
Leaving this here as i ended up boot looping from installing custom kernel, and it being a new release i was pulling my hair trying to figure this out. Flashed through fastboot with "fastboot flash boot_a XX.img, fastboot flash boot_b XX.img"...
forum.xda-developers.com
Do *NOT* mess with the other file to the right.
Hold all 3 buttons (2 volume buttons + power) and once/if you see Fastboot Mode, release the buttons.
Have ADB installed (you should be able to find plenty of directions for doing this).
From either PowerShell (or *maybe* CMD Prompt started as Administrator as I had been using this "successfully" for most functions):
fastboot devices
fastboot flash boot boot11.1.1.1.img
fastboot reboot
I could not believe my phone ACTUALLY booted (even with the McLaren animation intact; I'm sure one of the gurus here knows why) after all the failed attempts fooling around with MSM Download Tool [4.0] which almost EVERYONE swears by fixes/restores any brick. I understand ON ONE is forcing anyone to use any specific resolution; I am just trying to provide another last ditch effort.
EDIT/Caveat: I did not even check to see how old that thread above is, I believe late September and I had actually taken updates [via TMobile??] until the last one with a week to 10 days *but* that was probably wiped with the boot unlock so I do not know which "update" I got but figured I didn't have much to lose as I already had a "bad" version of a boot.img flashed anyway. Anyone with any technical explanations, feel free to comment. Thanks!
Hello, I was going through stage to unlock bootloader, it was previously unlocked but a flashing error caused me to flash stock through MSMTool, I forgot to close/stop the tool after it was complete and upon one of the reboots it started the install again.. without realizing I attempted to boot the phone which caused the download to stop incomplete and booting to screen “upgrade download failed” I did select OEM unlocking in developer options as well as usb debugging although now it will not unlock bootloader; I can boot to bootloader not recovery and attempting to hold volume buttons while plugging into pc just pushing it to boot into the same fail screen. Is it possible to get my device into EDL mode so MSMTool can restart the install for stock? Thank you for any time given to help explain or direct.
Apologies if this is in the wrong thread

Try using the MSM tool already started and the hold down VU/VD/Power until MSM grabs it.

This just boots to bootloader, from power off, any other combination instantly boots to same error page

It doesn't really matter what it does if you have it hooked up to your computer and have MSM turned on with start button. It can find your phone in a between mode and start installing. It works for me every time, just hit all 3 buttons from wherever you are as long as MSM is in the start mode, it will find it and start installing.

If MSM does not recognize your phone there is something wrong with your PC.

Use another USB Port and/ or another USB cable.
Dont use Windows11
Install latest Universal ADB Driver
Install latest Qualcomm Drivers
Install latest OnePlus drivers.
In fact the last thing that will NOT work is MSM. If MSM does not work your phone is completly dead. (Which yours is obviously not because it boots into bootloader) This means if MSM does not work, there is something wrong on your end.
Talking about dead devices, be etremly careful what you do in Fastboot mode!

Anything you do in the OS, like allowing OEM unlocking has **nothing** to do with MSM. In fact, a MSM flash will relock the bootloader. You will have to unlock again if you want to run anything except stock.
You have to boot the phone into EDL mode. Start MSM, then while holding the volume bar down, (UP and down, the entire button) plug into usb. Dont use the power button. (You may let volume keys go once done) There will be a dark screen, the only way to tell if in EDL mode is to check your device manager for the correct device. If you see anything on the screen you are not in EDL mode. I did use USB 2.0, do not use a hub.
I ask to start MSM first because on my Oneplus8, the EDL mode wont stay active for too long, unless MSM finds the phone.
If that does not work, put the phone into EDL mode and check your device manager (ports COM anf LPT) for QDLOADER 9008. Anything else, and the driver is not installed correctly and MSM won't work, If adb is working you can issue "adb reboot download" but the button press seems more applicable in your case.
There is a lot in the link below, it is for A10, I believe there is now a MSM for A11 but I have no experience with them.

I have tried all these and msm will not recognize the device in any state so Iv reverted to using a repair shop msm was successful in making the device stock the problem came from rebooting the device while msm was still connected and running. Pressing any button would lead to the download failed screen where the device is not recognized or into bootloader where oem is locked and even though before boot I checked unlocking enabled the fastboot command would not unlock the bootloader, if the store fix it I will try get details on what they did
