P8Lite removing encryption - P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I think I made a big mistake when playing around with an branded P8 Lite. Unlocking went well and I was able to install TWRP ( Elite Dev. 3.2.1 ) Sofar so good. But since I did not assign an screen unlock code before it is not possible to remove the encryption at all. So not possible to flash a different ROM, tried several tips I found but nothing worked. Since the phone was never used before there is nothing on it which might be worthwhile to back up. Endresult is that I can access the phone via ADB and fastboot. But that's it.
Anybody with a clue on how to proceed ?
Tks
Henning

Unable to update MX4 Pro and several other issues

Hey guys,
I've bought my MX4 Pro almost a year ago, but decided only now to ask for your help. Hope you'll be able to guide me to fixing the several problems i have.
First of all, phone came with Flyme 4.5.7I and right from the start there were some features not working. Most important, the fingerprint screen unlock isnt working. After capturing my fingerprint, when i try to enable it to unlock screen it just takes me back to the home screen.
Another issue is getting sometimes (it happens randomly) a no sim error. Sometimes restarting is enough, sometimes i need to take out the sim card and insert it back.
Ever since i've tried to update firmware, hoping it would solve my problems. Nothing has worked.
Dowloaded the update.zip (no matter which version) and placed it in root directory. When i try to open it with the document app i get two options, view and extract. Can't update. Also starting the phone using volume+ and power button (update screen) has always produced the same results: Firmware corrupt. Tried doing it with clearing data, without that, no difference. Tried with a .bin file, same thing.
As far as i know the bootloader is locked, and i remember checking if the device is properly rooted and IT IS NOT.
So, the more android savvy people here can help? I'm lost and i really enjoyed the phone so far, but i dont really know what to do from now on. Is it a faulty device? (This would be the worse, since the phone was bought from China).
I can provide any additional details if needed.
Thanks in advance
P.S. I remember trying every tutorial/solution out there, nothing has seemed to work. I also may be dumb, not sure.

I can't install any ROM and i have no backup (or OS)

Hey! First thing you need to know: i'm stupid af
So yesterday i tried to root my Huawei P9 Lite VNS L31, and everything was doing great: bootloader unlocked and everything.
Because the root didn't seem to work on EMUI, i tried to install another ROM (i'm stupid) with TWRP: so I wipe cache, system and data in order to do it good, i flash the ROM but now when i tried to reboot it didn't boot.
So i figured that i was trying to install a MM Rom on an Nougat (at least it was) device. I then tried another ROM and i didn't work either. After hours of trying to make it work, now it boots on Huawei eRecovery, but i already tried to use it since i made no backup (i'm an idiot), and it seems to fail every time? idk it only show a big red ! mark
Right now i'm still looking for a fix but i would be soooooooooooooooooooo freaking relieved if someone could help me please :crying:
(i'm an idiot)
I DID IT!!!!
So i followed a tutorial made by the website androidmtk (i can't link it it's my first post), and is used the official stock firmware for my phone which you can find on cusumer huawei dot com
DONT FORGET TO BACKUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Killed P9 Lite instead of getting back to live, maybe there is a last chance?

Hello, short Story before. I got a full Hand of non working mobile phones because being full of a hell of viruses.
5pcs. younger ones.
2 Huaweis and 3 Samsungs.
Well so far 4 PCs. are saved.
Getting into the phone wasn´t possible anymore. Data not important so I resettet over the Buttons to original Status. -> Worked fine.
But one Piece which is a Huawei P9 Lite guess it is a single sim? was the button method not possible cause it wanted a Software update and Installation of WLAN failed (EMUI)
Getting into the phone for any informations was also not possible because of all the viruses and not working right ahead anymore.
Well ok -> will use High Suite for stock Firmware -> this mobile phone is not supported and also couldn´t activate MTP as I am not in the phone. So far.
Next Idea -> ok. will take the C900B300 and go back to Marshmallow. From original HUAWEI site.
Took the European Version in German. Did it over EMUI (hold 3 Buttons) and worked so far but when I turned on I was stucking on the WIFI+. Even pressing the button -> further nothing anymore. So I thought -> maybe another stockfirmware useful.
Again C900B300 and then I think I did the big mistake. Took out the sdcard during it was rebooting (HUAWEI was already visible) and now it is big crap. Stucks at HUAWEI. Turning off not possible. This EMUI is not possible anymore. Just with a trick I am able to get into fastboot. Yeah. But what then? Reading TRWP which I know from Samsungs but putting it on with ODIN. ODIN doesn´t work with Huawei. Do I Need TRWP to get it back to normal Firmware? Mobile phone was never customized or anyhting else. just normal stock was on it and is the wish to get a clean back. Resetting to factory was not possible anymore.
So my questions, even I know it is my fault. Any rescue possible?
What could be the best stock Firmware. I Guess it is a single sim from Austria unlocked and unbranded. Would also take Nougat again. Just wanted to get it back to normal working and now I guess I have a big letter holder. Model from the backside is VNS-L31. More I don´t have.
Thanks a lot for any help for my being an idiot. Samsungs are much more easier than HUAWEIs.
Blimey mate,
This really just boil down to what partitions were damaged in your case- Most likely your system and data,
however since you are still Technically running unmodified emui you could manage to sort of salvage it.
The logic is this:
Most custom roms for the p9 lite build on top of emui (patching the system image) rather than replacing it (like the way samsung smartphones do)- so you could flash the rom, it would wipe your phone clean of viruses in the process and then proceed to do a hard restore back to emui.
1.) get your phone into fastboot and flash this twrp http://www.meticulus.co.vu/p/forum.html#nabble-td27
2.) Then flash this rom : http://www.meticulus.co.vu/p/ressurection-remix-for-hi6250-devices.html MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THIS SITE VERY CAREFULLY
3.)Follow this guide to do a hard restore https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/tips-revert-custom-rom-to-official-t3668413
good luck!!! if you have any questions hit me up!
Hi
Hi Exiatron00,
thanks a lot for your maybe solution way. Will do it this evening after work and come back.
Hopefully it works cause as mentioned in other threads -> don´t think that the original owner opened the Debugging so that I can work over a tool. FRP locked is in fastboot. This was already mentioned in other posts which I have read here in the forums.
Thanks for your step by step explanation. Will do it. Hopefully it works. I am really pissed of my own that i was unpatient with the sdcard. That´s a mistake which shouldn´t happen. Anyway it did. So i will try to do everything to get back working again. I am from IT so I am not such a DAU but newbie with HUAWEIs. Most are Samsungs.
Will give Feedback.

If u need to transfer files , just boot into twrp (it has built in mtp support) , then transfer the file from ur PC to phone via a micro us b cable.
If you are unable to fix the phone I do actually have a FULL twrp backup of my phone (EMUI 5- single sim Europe VNS- L31 C432B370) hit me up if u want it.
Hi,
well adb for flashing not working as device not found. Hi Suite installed. Guess that the USB Debugging is not enabled. hrmpf.
There is a similar thread of somebody with no enabled USB Debugging.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/fastboot-recovery-remotely-enable-usb-t2177440
He writes an solution how to enable in fast boot mode with using N4 toolkit.
Search for a p9 lite toolkit and found this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...nt/europe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873
may could work?
Big **** -> as Long as USB Debugging is not enabled as Long I am not able to Flash TWRP over adb.
If I connect to PC Hi Suite opens automatically. So driver should be fine as pc recognize the phone.
hm?
Got it working somehow

Hi Exiatron00,
got it working somehow!!!!
Bought a 3 day licence for DC Phoenix where you are able to put Firmware even in fastboot with FRB lock and no USB Debugging on.
So I got the IMEI and Fitting Version which is a L11.
Downloaded it original from Huawei as I still want a original stock Rom not customized which was
HUAWEI P9 Lite Firmware (VNS-L11, Android 6.0, EMUI 4.1, C432B161, WEU) only wokring one.
BUT the big Problem is that the apk Android System Web View is missing in the ROM. A known Problem by HUAWEI. Yeah now I am stucking in the Setup wizard like this guy who mentioned also the solution whell the reason of this Problem.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...stuck-initial-setup-upgrade-to-t3498097/page2
So my question now. How do I get the apk on the phone still no USB Debugging? Does anyone have this Version original incl. this apk? Maybe an img. from a running working System?
Only way I am able to put the Firmware on is DC-Phoenix. It is valid still two days. Maybe someone can help me? Please?
So an Image of VNS-L11, Android 6.0, EMUI 4.1, C432B161, WEU incl. Android System Web View, so that I can go ahead and use the phone again please?
Thanks a lot.
Kind Regards.

Disabling FRP with 8.0 image

Hello everyone,
Im in a bit of a pickle and hope someone here can help?
bought a g930p off second hand site, but when got home to fire it up there was the google reset protection on it (FRP), thought no hassle ill just wipe the phone and why not updated it to the latest while at it, so grabbed the latest files (8.0) and flashed the lot with odin, silly me thought this would just clear the phone totally including the FRP, anyway back to stage one of a phone that i cant use,
what ive tried:
z3x tool (asks to start adb, have adb started from platform tools dose nothing)
tried downgrading to 6 to try the OTG cable trick, wont let me downgrade
ive tried a few methods on here as well, but none seem to work anymore, so dose anyone know how to get past this with 8.0 installed ?
Thank you
Also i see there is a twrp for the Exynos version, is there version for the Qualcomm (g930p) version and would that help removing the FRP ?
Guess i should follow up on this, I ended up taking it to a phone repair shop, i asked how he did it and he didn't want to tell me.
So i guess this post is for anyone searching for a solution, wont find it in this thread sorry.

Well what they do is flash a modified SBOOT or Aboot file with adb enabled (because when you're on the setup assistant thats not enabled; you have to go to Developer Settings and blablabla and offcourse that's impossible at this time) then use Z3x to disable frp.... other method used is flashing combination firmwares (these are special FW that are used by the Samsung Engineers that comes with ADB and other usefull things for debugging, but make the phone unusable for everything else) and then the same thing using Z3x or Octopus Box; but I really don't know if theres a Combination FW for Bootloader 8.

FRP Lock Phone UNLOCK Cant boot, cant use recovery

I'm quite noob at this and guess i just bricked my phone but would like some sugestions to see if i can bring it back
Basicly i was trying to root my phone i had factory reseted my phone and had Phone UNLOCKED and FRP UNLOCK, installed TWRP and boot my phone, it was working fine but since it was factory reseted it didnt had a google account, so i tried to install a custom ROM, but since i had EMUI 5 there werent many compative and in the process i somewhat messed up and every time i booted my phone it always send me to TWRP, so i tried to look for a stock firmware to install but it didnt work, then i had th stupid ideia to use DC-Unlocker to reset my phone to factory settings and it Locked FRP, now i cant unlock it because i cant boot normally and cant enter TWRP either, is there any way to unlock FRP without booting my phone?
Found a fix myself, if someone ever get in the same trouble as me
