Help with Bricked P8 lite 2017 PRA-LX1 - P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I have accidentally bricked my phone; the build version is PRA-LX1 8.0.0.384(C02)
after succesfully rooting it, it made an update overnight and when i woke up i could only get into twrp or fastboot mode.
Then i installed a wrong stock firmware :cyclops: through sd card and as a result the phone would only boot and reboot continuously, or, by being fast enough, i could put it into fastboot mode by mean of holding volume down and inserting the micro usb cable.
I then tried to flash boot, system and recovery img by extracting them from update.app, but some img would not get flashed such as boot.img.
What should i do?
The bootloader is unlocked,
the funny thing is that when i use fastboot devices it gets recognised but when i do adb devices it doesn't .
I would highly appreciate any help as you probably can imagine i am very desperate and frustrated by the situation
Thanks

Flashed TWRP as boot.img / Now it only goes to recovery HELP ME!!!

Hi people...
Everything was going so smoothly... bootloader unlock... root... some nice root apps... free paid games... and my p8 lite was just feeling so good... until... I flashed twrp with flashify under the name of boot.img... Am I stupid or what?! Now I can only get 2 scenarios... when i turn on the phone it goes directly to twrp. In twrp i get the option to go the bootloader screen... If I choose system it goes back to twrp... I can't get it to start. I downloaded the official tar.gz from emui site but I dont know how can I install it. PLEASE HELP... What should I do in this case?! I miss my baby...
Thanks in advance
You have to restore stock recovery in fastboot mode.

How do I do that?! If I wanted to wipe my phone completely and re-install the OS would be better to do it using twrp or stock recovery?
Thank you very much
Sorry, i misunderstood. If you flashed twrp as boot.img, reflash stock boot in fastboot mode.
flash stock boot.img in fastboot mode
and then flash twrp as recovery
will be like this
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
fastboot reboot
use the boot.img from stock rom and twrp image you downloaded
Oh no!
Now I made some serious **** to my baby... guess now i'll have to send it to huawei to fix it. I made a full wipe like if it was format c: in computers... everything is gone (i didnt had any personal data) it doesnt have OS even. But when I still had twrp i tried to flash boot.img and recovery.img and now when i start it goes directly to bootloader screen but saying "please update system again" and where it used to say phone unlocked it now says (in red letters):
Error!
Func NO: 10 (boot image)
Error NO: 2 (load failed!)
I was able to get to eRecovery with usb connected but when i choose to download e install the new version it gives me the message "wifi starting failed".
It also does not get any instuction with fastboot. but hi suite starts when I connect it. Strange?!
What do you think? Should I send it to huawei? Or is it possible for me to make it work again?
Also tried UPDATE.APP function and all give me fail message.
I'm going crazy!!!! But I love to mess around with android... To me this is the android essence. Fortunately I have a lumia for when my baby doesnt work.loooool
Thank you all
I don't understand why you don't use fastboot. Everybody told you to use it. In our phone situation, without custom kernel or rom, twrp is for experimentation and you cannot mix things.

Well, you warned me... but sometimes i do these kind of *****... So, in this situation you think it's better to send it or is there way to fix this.
By the way, when I enter huawei eRecovery and I get the option to download the firmware through wifi and it says wifi starting failed, is there any way to make this work? And to fastboot do we need to open cmd as administrator to make it work? Because if Hi suite detects the phone I should also be able to fastboot it right?
Thanks for your patience
Just use fastboot aand flash everything

hello I have p8 lite unlocked and rooted, yesterday I wanted to install the TWRP 2.8.7. but I was wrong and I installed twrp for the p8 and not p8 lite.
When I go into recovery mode my phone locks that read huawey, I tried with fastboot command to delete the wrong recovery and install the right of the p8 lite but the result does not change, my phone locks that read huawey
i think The commands that you wrote and that I have quoted are also fine for my case, it's' true?

Hi everyone!!
First of all, thanks to everybody who helped me with this situation.
I now am using my baby again as if it was new. I wiped him completely as i stated before and it was as easy as finding the right firmware (136a) and using the vol down + vol up + power button technique. I put the UPDATE.APP file inside a folder named dload in sdcard using other phone (with my p8 was impossible). After that rebooted the device, pressed those 3 buttons and the instalation started successfully.
I just cant explain how happy i was. I stayed 3 days without it.
After that I have been messing with fastboot so thanks to everyone who made me realize that i didnt need to do all of this, but well, A full wipe is always welcome.
Is there any custom kernel on the way for overclock my baby?
Please explain to me how do I put SOLVED in this thread as my problem is already solved...
Thanks

Just download your firmware version, use huawei extractor to extract boot.img,cust.img,recovery.img and system.img
After that,download mininal adb fastboot copy you files into fastboot folder , enter fastboot mode on your phone and from fastboot folder,open cmd and type these commands:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
After this your phone will boot normally. Once you've done this, copy update.app to your sdcard or internal and install it by local update. Once you've done all this,your phone is fine.
May I know how do you wipe your internal storage? and what if after wiping, im unable to get into recovery mode? does it mean phone is not usable anymore?
SOLUTION
Hello. I'm the bigest mess on androids but i know that flashing stock recovery can remove any TWRP/CWR. If its too powerfull flash stock boot and run fastboot -w.(fastboot -w erases all PERSONAL data)

Huawei P8 GRA-L09 (New Zealand) NO OS

Hi I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place please direct me to where to go if it is.
My problem is I have a Huawei p8 with no os on it what so ever it has twrp and that's it. I have spent hours trying to read and find a working stock or even custom rom for the phone. The only ROM that seems to be able to be flashed is from fromFuture but when I flashed it through twrp it said success and then was still in boot loop. I really don't know what to do please help. Thank you

You need the masrhmallow bootloader for flash from furure ROM .
Forgive my English too, if I understood well the problem is you can not boot your operating system.Download the official rom and extract the boot and system images of the update.app.?*
Huawei update extractor?*http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?t=2433454.?*Once you have boot.img and recovery.img Download adb minimal and fastboot and universal drivers adb. In the folder where is adb minimal and fastboot copy boot.img and system.img.
Start the adb minimal, connect the USB cable to your computer, press volume down and connect the cable,or volumen down and power, so your phone will enter fastboot mode.
In the Command window of minimal adb type the following:?*
fastboot devices and pressing enter to ensure that recognizes your phone.?*
Fastboot flash boot boot.img and pressing enter.
Fastboot flash system system.img and pressing enter this takes more time.
For end ; fastboot reboot.

needing help with huawei Y3 II LUA-L03 (softbricked/bootloop)

hi everyone.
a friend of mine was trying to root his huawei but now it cant boot anymore.
he followed a wrong guide for the Y5 II and flashed a custom recovery (bootloader unlocked) TWRP.
now the phone its on bootloop with the stock OS. i think that its due to the wrong recovery flashed on the partition.
so im requesting help for this phone.
is there a solution for this?
can anyone bring me the stock firmware for this model?
i need it as update.app to extract the stock recovery, not as ota update (dload/update.zip) cuz i need to flash it using fastboot. the phone just can use fastboot cuz recovery partition is corrupted and normal boot doesnt work (bootloop).
plz someone can help me?
i already googled long for a solution but i can figure out how to make it work.
the phone comes with android 5.1 lollipop and is from chile.
pd: the phone can only enter fastboot by pressing vol+ and power. if i try to turn it on normally it bootloops. when on fastboot menu, if i select recovery, it bootloops. if i select fastboot, it works using adb from pc (i mean, i can download data to it, it doesnt boot via fastboot option).
if i just had the original recovery.img maybe i can flash it and make it boot normally again.

I don't know much about Huawei, but if firmware is available you should be able to flash back to stock. Personally, I would try to find the right TWRP and flash it...then it will boot and you can root of you still desire.
I'm not sure if this is the right one, but if bootloader is unlocked it won't hurt to try. https://twrp.me/devices/huaweiy300.html

Need Urgent Help, Phone not powering

Alright so where i'm at now is basically the aftermath of a failed attempt to install a cyanogen unofficial rom for my phone.
I have a p9 lite VNS-L23 dual sim and well basically, i unlocked the bootloader and i rooted it with twrp and installed superuser using the srk tool. Everything worked fine up to this point until i booted into recovery, cleared cache and data etc to do a clean install and the install failed with an error code 7.
I thought doing a twrp backup before the flash was effective but because it didnt take any length of time, i sort of thought it definitely wasnt a full backup but i didnt pay it any attention and tried to flash it anyway since iv'e never had probs flashing anything with other of the phones ive had before which was my main mistake.
Usb debugging was enabled before trying to flash. I thought it failed because i didnt change my file system but i had no idea how to do that so i avoided it and tried to install a newer version of twrp to see if the rom would work with the updated version instead. When flashing the twrp img file, it asked where i wanted to install and i think i selected bootloader instead of boot cause there were only 2 options.
After than finished and i chose to restart in recovery, recovery never loaded. I was getting erecovery but that couldnt help me either. I was just stuck with no os and a phone stuck on the bootscreen. I tried to unbrick my phone by installing the update file for the international version firmware which i downloaded which was the only one not to fail after trying 2 others before it before realizing the error i was making. I read online that it would restore my phone back to ofw and that was great considering i had no os installed. Now, after the update, i think i reached like 100% then it went blank. I tried to wait a couple seconds to see if it was rebooting but nothing happened. tried all button combinations with and without the charger for varying lengths of time but no luck. I hear a sound when its connected to my laptop tho so idk if that matters. Its a bit frustrating right now and i have no clue how to fix this problem and i havent even had the phone for a long time. If someone. anyone can help me, id more than appreciate it
So far, nothing is responding to anything. No lights, no vibrations and i dont see anything when it conencts to my laptop, my laptop just makes the connected sound. I see Fastboot 2.0 detected but the srk tool cannot detect any emulators or devices :/ im so depressed at this point. More or less just bought the ****.
Sounds bad, try using the dload method and if that doesn't work you are ******.
What is the output of "fastboot devices"

its the dload method that has me in this mess. It didnt reboot from the upgrade and since then i think ive been in fastboot mode. I get a response with the fastboot devices cmd and i manage to flash the boot, recovery and system of the stock firmware but still no luck. Think my only option is to use dc phoenix but i cant buy credits for that

not getting to the upgrade screen with dload, the phone restarts but nothing on screen. I can use fastboot only to flash and unlock bootloader, check specifications but thats it. I flashed the stock image which is mm thru fastboot but no luck. I read that i might wait for my battery to drain since my battery isnt rly made to be removable. Can i still use dload without any on screen response?
Have you also tried flashing vendor, cust ... partitions ?

Fastboot doesnt flash certain img's such as xloader etc, no vendor img included inside the update but i doubt i'd be able to flash it anyway, but i flashed everything i was allowed to incl. cust, boot, recovery, system, cache, . Everything else is giving error: command not allowed. I've hit a brick wall so far til my battery drains or i take it to a repair shop which is i guess, last resort. Can't seem to find help anywhere on the internet, nothing returns anything to the screen.
Looks like a hard brick, take it to an official repair shop. But remember: unlocking the bootlader does NOT void the warranty.

Huawei P10 Lite - Bricked Device

Hello everyone.
I Have Huawei P10 Lite WAS-LX1A and I accidentally bricked my device.
I was using TWRP to install a rom, and I wipped my system but the rom couldn't be installed for some reason. So I thought my TWRP Version had a problem, so I tried with bootloader to istall a new TWRP.
In adb I pressed:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_by_GreatSlon.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and then
fastboot flash recovery custom_boot_decryptdata_b130
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But now, it doesn't load TWRP at all when I press vulume up + power button. I am stuck with out TWRP and with out an OS.
And I can't enter bootloader to install a new TWRP. Is there anything I can do?
I do have a laptop and an SD Card and my Bootloader is unlocked. Phone Unlocked and FRP Unlock are red, so maybe there is a way to save my phone please? I need help please . Sorry if I am not explaining very good and if I don't write correctly, I'ts because I am very very sad . Please someone tell me there is a way to fix it. Maybe dload? But I cannot find any file that it fits.. Thanks in advance.
I found this youtu.be/pkWSDlrLmns and I intalled a new TWRP. But I still cannot find any ROM to install. Any help please?

you flashed twrp in recovery partition and after that, you flashed "custom_boot_decryptdata" also in recovery partition. so, twrp was overwritten. that's the reason why it doesn't work now. are you able to enter fastboot? (VOL- & power button)?
are you on emui5 or emui8?
if you can enter fastboot mode, flash twrp again.

Try to flash all partitions from a service rom.
I have the Same Problem. Only dark screen with fastboot connection.
(Sorry for the very late reply) I could enter fastboot using a pc, and then flashed a different twrp and costum rom.
Everything was okay. But, lately my rom started having network problems and I decided to flash an another rom..
But when I did, something wrong happened and now I am without twrp, without rom and with phone and frp locked.
My destiny is to brick my device and go to imposimple position, isn't it? I don't have my unlocked code so I cannot unlock my bootloader. I paid and tried dc unlocker to unlock my phone, but after plug-unplug it stopped being unlocked again and my money for dc unlocker gone for nothing and I am not willing to pay again for something like that. Any ideas to unlock my phone?
I sent an email and message to Huawei to see if they can give me the code, but idk if they will do. Any suggestions?
This post can be locked. This thread continues here. As for the Huawei, they respond that they don't give the unlock code anymore..
