Huawei P8 Lite bootloop

So I've searched for a answer but nothing worked.
I have the ALE-L21 model, and it bootloop-ed when I was trying to root the phone.
I've tried to put an update from the sd card by pressing volume up and down + power button and it just said failed from the start.
I've tried entering fastboot mode and flashing boot.img, recovery.img, but i it didn't worked.
Sorry for the bad english, please help me.

first off all...
Whe need al little more information.
dual/single sim?
What build number are you on?
Did you unlock your bootloader? (i think that's your problem)
do you have a goldfish?
If you can answer these questions we can help you

Hi! I have same issue with my P8 Lite single sim from Vodafone. Before i went into bootloop i had B181 branded software.
My bootloader is locked (how i can get unlock code when emui site is down?). Is there any way to rescue my phone without unlocking bootloader?
Maybe it will be possible to flash (vol+,vol-,power) it once again with vodafone rom, but i can't find it anywhere.
Thanks for support.

I'm not 100% sure now but it should be ALE-L21C432B133_Europe Channel_single Software from official huawei site

In that build there should be a floder named vendor with an small update.app in it. put that one in your sdcard/internal memory and go trough settings-> updater-> menu-> local update and select that. let it do and everything should be fine

Everything works, thank you so much but it seems that this ROM is bit laggy and when I'm tryning to delete some ****ty games it's restarting and games remain.
Can i update it now to Android 6.0? Will it be possible via OTA? Right now i have info that my current version is latest one.

No Updates at all

Hi all,
I just recently went back to complete stock, from CM, as I want to hand it over to a friend.
I successfully switched back to C432B160 last week.
But still not a single update does show up, though that build is from November 2016.
It always tells me, that there are no updates. I am aware that Updates will show up with Hisuite, but shouldn't the stock updater present updates, too?
(I am not even talking about Nougat)
I already successfully tried a factory reset.
The only idee I have, is that I now have a DS oeminfo on an originally SS phone.
Does anyone have an idee, what might be wrong?

well, if you have ds oeminfo while your phone is ss, try flashing ss oeminfo and then the stock rom again

Well the phone was SS at the beginning, but now I have oeminfo for DS and Stock Rom for DS (B160)

I wiped all and completely new flashed B160.
I did not setup any account (Google, Huawei), but only connected the phone to my WIFI.
Still neither Update nor HiCare show any available updates.
Does this need a SIM Card to be in the phone? Are there any other precautions?
I have no idea why it behaves like this.
edit: both frp and bootloader are locked according to the Bootloader Menu
I might add 2 weeks ago when coming from CM, there were no updates in update menu but HiCare, so I went fo Nougat. Nougat did not work properly, so I went back to B160 in order to start again, but since then, I never saw any update in menu, nor HiCare.
Might Huawei block DS Roms for IMEIS of originally SS phones?

Push, maybe @k1ll3r8e has an answer for me?

Heyho,
sounds really wired...
-
Here is what u can try,
1) bring the device back to stock (unrooted, loader closed)
2) do a factory reset and also the cache clear which is offered in the stock recovery
-
Start the device, do a dummy setup (only wlan is needed) check if the device offers an update. If not, well, try to manually update from C432B160 to C432B210 and check the update app again.
About this issue, i'm not sure, but maybe Huawei have a "downlaod limit" for an IMEI, that u can only download the update for example 10 times or so... I don't know^^ - I can only say, my device "L31 - Single-SIM - T-Mobile" modded to C432B380 dual-SIM have no issues with updates... I got since B130 every update via the normal update app. - But i also know that the updates will be released in waves, i don't know how they exclude/include devices in such an wave. But maybe, u have an oeminfo from an device which wasn't in the "current wave list". - As already mentioned i don't know how they manage those waves or what the trigger is...
Hope i could help u a bit
Regards
Sebastian

So, did you try upgrade on N using Firmware finder?
If not, try it and you will see if your device in black list. I also use DS firmware for SS model and just last night I upgraded normaly from B160 to B370 Ota, and after that to B380 Ota.

@k1ll3r8e
Yes it already is a dummy setup. I will manually upgrade to B210 and try again, Thanks alot! @Alexxxx1
Firmware Finder is the Windows tool, isn't it? If above progress won't work I might boot my Windows partition and check on that.
Is there by chance any other way to check if the device is somehow blacklisted?
@all
Would Huawei push the updates to my device, if I would contact them? (I ask because of the altered oeminfo. Or would the refuse support in that case, which is what I guess)
edit: Does by chance anyone have a link to the C432B210 ROM?

Heyho,
if u have an L31, go to my FTP (oeminfo) and go a few folders back, then u'll find a Huawei folder there are several versions stored.
Edit:
Here is the link (just back on my PC)

Firmware finder is android app. You can find it in google play store as a free tool for upgrade huawei devices. In Ffinder you will find option for checking autorization of official firmware for your device, is it allowed or not for your device.
Regards

I did flash B210, but no Updates withiin 1 day. (I think time was to short)
I then flashed B370 Full-PV via Firmware Finder.
B380 should come automatically sometime, hopefully.
I think its time to hand it over to my friend now.
Only thing I am curious about is:
settings -> about phone -> certification: Serbia
I guess this is normal for C432?

No worries about that
I bought mine also from T-Mobile DE, and mine shows also "Serbia"... I searched a bit for similar issues and it seems that also the P8 with C432 is for "Serbia" at least a unknown amount of it, sooo i think it comes from the "ROM" not from the device. Maybe they only certify the ROM for a "law based standart" to "Serbia". - Who knows...^^

Unable to update

Hello,
I've just bought a Le Pro 3 6GB/64GB from Banggood, and it arrived with EUI 5.9.020S (Build: WAXCNFN5902012312S).
It looks like there are not much Chinese bloatware, Google Play and a few Google apps were already installed on the phone. There were no startup tutorial when I first started it up, the language were already set to English...
I'm not sure if this ROM is original, it's supposed to be. Anyway, there is no "System Update" in the System settings... How can I get this item back so I can "easily" update the firmware?
The firmware is as I received it, no root, no TWRP, no nothing special.

Can't flash trough recovery?

Yes you're right, it seems that in Recovery I can flash an update.zip.
Strange that I don't have a "System Update" in the System settings though... I have to download the update.zip manually.
Where can I find the latest firmware for the x720 6GB/64GB to flash that way?

https://bbs.le.com//zt/eui/index.html
Or if you cant download, try to find megatrend reuploads...

Ok, so the last version available is 5.9.023S then.
Download don't work, I'll try to find it elsewhere, thanks.

It's a shop ROM, updater won't update it so they removed it. Update.zip method works though. If you can't download from LeEco server, try removing port number from dowload url. You will probably lose Gapps when you update!
EDIT: For example my download url starts with 107.155.49.13:110/222/8/95/scmauto/0/etc.. Just remove :110 from url and it should work.

True. For me :110 is not working. Gapps can be installed as APK (from sites like APKMirror).

Thank you, it worked.
Does that means that this ROM will have all the chinese bloatware?
The ROM the phone came with seems to have none installed, and play store was already on it.
So far everything works pretty fine on this phone, makes me wonder if the benefit of this newer official ROM is worth the hassle.

Yes, it will include all chinese apps. Mine came with shop ROM. I updated it to official, tried some stock based custom ROMs and I'm currently on latest OmniROM. In my opinion there's something sketchy in chinese shop ROMs, you can never tell what they have done.

Where to download the official Chinese firmware for the Nubia Z17?

Hello
There is no international firmware for the Z17.
The vendors are putting custom ROMS with multilanguage with or without google services but they have a great inconvenience, you will not be able to receive updates by OTA.
Where to download the official Chinese firmware for the Nubia Z17?
How can it be installed? From SD, OTG ... through your recovery mode?

The official Chinese firmware can be downloaded here : http://ui.nubia.cn/rom/detail/42
For the installation, there is an upgrade guide in PDF format but you need a Nubia account to access it (and my Chinese knowledge is much worse than my English one)...

How can you tell that you've got a custom rom on it from the vendor?

Taken a look at the PDF file; basic steps 1) Backup information on phone 2)copy firmware zip file into the root directory of internal storage 3)update firmware 4)if there are problems, factory reset after update
Only step (3) looks a little different from other phones; basically you should go Settings - Privacy & Security - Select "Slide to unlock" to reset screen unlock to simple slide to unlock and then Settings - Firmware Update - Local Update - Select the zip file for the firmware you want to update to
Hope this helps.

Basically we should put the official firmware on for ota updates and the possibility that they may allow Google apps?

In my Rom there is nothing related to Firmware and/or Update.

Ok, but how do I do it?
Booting into recovery also does not Show anything related to upgrade. Only one is called boot into edload.
And it says System is root - 1 and Boot is root - 1.

Well i checked. And i think it's impossible. Where did you buy phone? Or for which country

I bought it from cect-shop.com.
They told me that I have to wait for an international Rom from nubia, which would be APPLIED via a PC.
I do have Google Services on it. Some things are buggy.

Hey Thomas, i ordered my Phone from the cect-shop, too and it will arrive on July 11th.
Which version is your Z17? 6/64 or 6/128 ?

It is the 6/64 Version. The 8/128 was not available.
It is good Phone but needs time to get used to coming from Stock Android.

It can only be downloaded if you have the extraction password, that it what Baidu is asking for.

You can find it also here (GeekBu...). It is the release 2.44. I didn't have a look "inside".

How do you update? I get an error update failed after boot when I try to update using the file manager method. I have eu model and A.08 firmware...

Is it possible to downgrade to previous A.08 version ?
For some unknown reason, I have some signal problem when IPV4 on my french carrier (Bouygues telecom) since the upgrade, I have to go to ipv6 if I want to have data
I would like to go back to ipv4 and having data, like in the A.08 version
Could it brick my phone if I flash the A.08 over this A.09 ?
Thanks !

Thanks for the India link. Haven't got a push yet so will download.
Waiting on realme ui!
