P9 lite l21 tottaly bricked

So this is what happened, I was on I MedroM v3, so I was there was a firmware in beta (the 7.0 update) so I've done it and now I'm stuck in a bootloop
, I flashed the Nougat recovery so it locked my bootloader
and removed TWRP so I can't even go to flash the old rom
again. I also can't get the product id now cause I don't have an OS installed, there's no way to pull it without it an OS. I have tried every existing method possible and nothing (including the sd
card method with update.app and bla bla bla)
So I can't flash files through fastboot It says " Command not allowed"
Can somebody please help me, I have experience with flashing and everything but I in my entire life have not seen that a phone company so big doesn't have a ******** flashtool
or some other way of recovering hard bricked devices instead of buying a new motherboard or something..
If somebody could help me I would be so grateful! Please excuse my language I'm very mad and frustrated, I need my phone for work and now I'm offline..
- Fastboot is available but the bootloader is locked
- No TWRP
- No OS Installed

Download a firmware you want, extract the update.app and put it in sd card folder. From the phone completely shutdown, press vol +, vol - and power at the same time hold it until the updater with percentage progress moving appears.. you should be fine after that.. ? i believe. Maybe try it. That's what i did on my case

No, It says "Software Install failed! Incompatability with current software version"
When I go to eRecovery t says that it cant connect to WIFI.
As I said i tried every known method and I can't get it to work. Spent my whole day trying to fix it, I'm out of ideas

I had the same problem, but with the L31.
First try to use https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-twrp/
Then with the file i send you attached (MAF32)
- Fastboot flash boot boot.img
- Fastboot flash system system.img
- Fastboot flash cust cust.img
- and finally TWRP
After that i puted the first exctrated uppdate.pp in my memory card and with the "3 buttons" process i flashed it. Then i repeated the same process with the second one (http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...droid-nougat-dev-build-huawei-t3488360/page33). After this finished, again with the 3 buttons i made a factory reset.
5 minutes later, it was working.

i don't understand how to boot to fastboot ? and where to get these img files i am really stuck here pleaase

You don't understand, In order to unlock the bootloader i need the product ID which you get by typing some number combination in the dialer. I cant get to the dialer cause I dont have any OS installed, cause the old was dirty flashed. So thats why i cant flash TWRP etc..

hello, i'm using Huawei P9 Lite VNS-L21. i tried to flash the stock nougat Firmware Which i actually did and it worked flawless! but there was a little problem because there wasn't any Software update option in there, so after that i wanted to downgrade to stock MM. IDK what happened wrong while installing that, my phone got BRICKED. i don't have the Erecovery and twrp either. i cant flash firmware via DLOAD Method. the only thing i have is FASTBOOT mode..
i tried literally everything.. but nothing working..
I sent it to HUAWEI CUSTOMER CARE and they returned it back after a couple of days...
im really very worried because ive been using this phone for like 2 months ... and now im helplesss, If anybody is reading this please help/ assist me out of this.. i'd be really greatfull if anybody's going to help me out..

Ok, this is what I would do if I were you. I would pick a rom in the development section, eg. RR. Then I would extract it and get the system image and boot image and fastboot flash them. To extract the rom, use SuperR's Kitchen.
Hope this helps.

Please help! ZTE Axon 7 won't boot after deleting Lineage and TRWP

Hi,
don't know if this problem has already occurred before.
I had lineage and TRWP installed on my Axon 7 (EU version) and wanted to go back to the stock a2017g.
Therefore I deleted the ROM and wiped everything with TWRP.
Then I deleted TWRP and now i'm stuck at the the bootloader (which is unlocked), but TWRP seems to be gone.
The main problem is, whenever I try to flash a new stock rom (via recovery), I get the error "signature verification failed" and the process is aborted with no change to the system whatsoever.
Is there anything I can do at this point or is my phone practically dead?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Try to boot into bootloader interface, and issue command "fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img" on your computer( the current working directory should contain the TWRP.img file) . If your bootloader is unlocked, you should see no error of this command. Then press up/down button to select recovery mode. You should see the familiar TWRP again. Good luck!

Did you try flashing an official full zip, like B10? That's another thing you can try, since you're going to lose TWRP after you flash a stock rom anyways

If you dont have recovery, flash it from edl mode, you can flash twrp or stock.
Once you install it, performa a full wipe from stock recovery, and flash a full zip.
I have similar problems, I dont loose recovery, but stock dont boot after coming back from aosp, a factory reset did the job. I think is because different filesystems in data partition

Hi, the B10 ROM from the ZTE homepage did the trick.
Worked out nicely.
Thank you so much.
One final question remains for myself: How can I relock the bootloader (so that the 5 second screen won't show up at the start).
Tried different ways with adb and fastload, but nothing seemed to have an effect here.
So what to do?
Thank you again for your help.

you shouldn't. Fastboot should do the trick, by doing fastboot oem lock, but many people reported bricking and bad stuff...
Actually that screen comes very handy in case of a brick or if you want to enter a specific mode.l, you just select the mode and voila
Do you have fastboot? I don't know if B10 still has it, but 7.0 hasn't got it

Hi,
I tried adb and fastboot via pc and with the axon toolkit.
The adb worked fine, but no sign of effect by the fastboot commands.
So I guess I don't have it.
Is there any other solution to at least bypass the 5 second screen?
Thanks

Lol fastboot is not something like EDL, it looks similar to the 5 sec screen...
When you get the 5 sec screen, use the vol keys and pwr to get to the Fastboot option and enter - it should reboot and get to fastboot after some time
You should look up what fastboot, EDL, ADB and DFU are before doing all this stuff - you can mess up badly, and by not knowing you're complicating everything - my explanation and your understanding

bootloop after unlocking bootloader and flashing TWRP

Hello,
I have lenovo k4 note 32GB ROM, 2GB RAM with stock 6.0 MM. I've unlocked the bootloader with the command ''fastboot flashing unlock'', confirmed it by pressing volume down and returned to fastboot, then successfully flashed twrp from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/k4-note/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-0-touch-recovery-t3530374 , i used the latest version 3.2.1. Now the phone remains in bootloop. After pressing vol- with pwr it enters meta mode for a few seconds but then returns to bootloop again. Attempts to anything lead to bootloop. My computer does not recognise it. Is there anything I can do to revive it? Maybe SP flashtool? I have not tried that yet. Help me please, I would be very thankful for any help.
Thank you

1. Flash stock version (This will lock you bootloader again).
2. Unlock bootloader and let it reboot (donot flash recovery now)
3. It will wipe the device and boots up.
4. After the boot is successful, go back to fastboot and flash recovery.

I appreciate your reply, but could you please elaborate on the first step? How am I supposed to flash stock recovery when I cannot enter fastboot? The phone is in bootloop no matter what I try. I can't seem to find a way to communicate with the phone from computer.

Flash full stock rom, not just recovery using flashtool. You can't flash recovery alone at this point.
For flashtool, you need to power off the mobile completely.

Thank you soooo much, you helped me a lot. The phone is now running!
Btw, before I restored it, I got into TWRP once, I think i pressed some of the nav buttons to get there. But in mount partitions system was missing and data partition was showing 0B, so something was definitely wrong.
Gonna try flashing it again, this time I'll reboot after unlocking bootloader and only then flash. I hope this time I'll succeed

Are you able to go in twrp recovery?

Till which step did you reach? What waa the last message you saw on screen?
Charge it for a day, then press vol + button and power button and see if you can get to fast boot. Try plugging USB in and see if it's recognised, otherwise.

That's the link for fastboot flashable rom v323. It will surely revive your max pro. (Credits to Nageen Pawar. Thanks sir)
Boot your phone into fastboot first. Connect it to your pc. Make sure you already installed adb drivers. Then extract the downloaded rom. And finally, run flash_all.

Why to flash twrp. Flash stock recovery via fastboot command. Download stock rom, put it in to internal storage. Now boot in to recovery. Update phone from there. This method will work.

Relax. I'm guessing your bootloader is unlock right?

First time I booted twrp, I had to hold the up key when it vibrates after the Mi logo.

Try format data with TWRP option typing "yes" then Install MIUI 12

If all else fails.. Try to install the fastboot rom of MIUI. It should help you boot to default MIUI OS.. Then flash the TWRP after.
