ALE-L21 Bootloop after OTA last night? - P8lite General

Hello all,
I've rooted my P8Lite L21 using the custom recovery method, flashed the supersu.zip, then restored the original recovery.
Yesterday I had an OTA and now phone reboot once during system boot, and at the second time it hangs during boot.
What can I do to recover this? I have stock recovery, and when I try to VOLDOWN+POWER it never goes to fastboot. (last time I had to use adb reboot-bootloader but now I can't reach system\adb..)
Can you help?
Thanks, cheers,
pHk

Hello,
You can boot to fastboot with this method:
Connect phone with PC then power off
Now push two buttons VOLDOWN+POWER+MicroUSB now you can install any stock ROM with fastboot commands and suitable *.img(boot.img, cust.img, system.img)
P.S
What OTA(number) arrive to you?

Worked like a charm Thanks a lot! I don't know the OTA number.. Still can't get into system :|
I'll try flashing TWRP from here and then i don't know which rom to use.. I'd like CM12 but i'm not sure its supported.
Can you suggest any stable ROM ?
Thanks

It's Portuguese\Europe, Single SIM.
I'm downloading "Huawei P8 Lite ALE-L21 V100R001C432B171 (Europe)". Is this flashable from fastboot? Yes, i'm unlocked. Does it need the hiSuite or fastboot.exe will suffice?
Thanks Sokkoban, you're being of great help and I'm thanking all your posts

Wait my friend this is single sim ROM
I must download dual sim if you have dual sim device
Yes I'm not shure but if you want install B170 you need first downgrade to B052 then you can install via OTA best and last ROM for you country

Yes, I know this is single SIM. But, why do you say that I need to downgrade to B052 and then OTA? Can't i flash the B170 directly?
The other question i had is, how to flash this. Hisuite or fastboot.exe?
Thanks

Because after downgrade you can install any firmware via OTA! (ROM B052 is from the box!)

If you don't see any problem, I will try to flash B170 directly, since my bootloader is already unlocked. What do you think?
About the link you sent, the site appears in English, but then it changes to russian? I cannot get it back to EN.

OK
Try this. Use Huawei update extractor in forum xda have link to it. Open the UPDATE.APP and extract the following files: Recovery.img, Boot.img, Cust.img, System.img
Then use fastboot commands to flash B171 ROM
I wish you success!

Hi there,
I have a similar problem: bootloop!
I'm comming from B170 and installed 7 HD 1.2 ROM and got some errors, I thougt it would be an good to go the long way to B008 or better B010. After so searching I found: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64483642&postcount=43
- did not step 1 an under-pressed flashing recovery in step 2 and 3, thought I could yet use TWRP.
Obviously, that was the mistake.
At step 4 I recognized that I have to do step 1 to go on.
that worked an I copied the update.zip to internal card, initialised the update.
Not sure it got to 100% but think so.
Result bootloop, can't get to recovery, only fastboot
Tried to flash every thing: B052, B170, and 136a, even the boot.img and recovery.img of B010 and B008
no errors but still bootloop.
PLEASE HELP!!
is there a full version of B080 somewhere to flash by fastboot? or any options to flash the update.zip of B080 again?
All other proposals are welcome!

First 7 HD 1.2 ROM work only over the B010!!!
Second in this archive have the instructions to install Beta B008 why you not did everything described in the instructions?
Third when install stock firmware RECOVERY must be original not TWRP!!!
Now you must install stok recovery, make hard reset then install B052
After that you can install every stock firmware for your region! or follow the instruction to install B008=>B010=>7 HD 1.2 ROM

fastboot

Hm, this is very strange!
What device do you have? and which region use?

adb reboot recovery --- says: error: device '(null)' not found
if I try with serialnumber
adb -s W3D7XXXXXXXX reboot recovery ---- says error: device 'W3D7XXXXXXXX' not found
but ---- fastboot devices ----says at the same time: W3D7XXXXXXXX

So B170 worked in the first place

Try this method and ROM
May be you must use google translator because tutorial is for Bulgarian people

Thank you. Here's what I did.
When I see the message saying you need decryption key, I tried to unlock again the bootloader. It does factory reset afterwards.
I forced flash update.app, relock bootloader and I got an issue with themes.
To fix that, I unlocked bootloader and flash TWRP. I flashed the data zip bundled on the firmware. Flashed again the stock recovery and update.app
Relock again the bootloader and it did a factory reset again
after that, its all stock
Thanks guys

Hi....
First you choose Utility in SRK Tools and then choose "install /data/hw_init", on your phone you should accept supersu request and Done!
this is my solution ( made by me ) after trying many solutions over this forum @ other forums
just
1- delete any folder for themes u made (as hw_init or themes in root folder or at any site )
2- make folder & name it ( HWTHemes ) in internal memory
3- download this folder & put it inside (HWTHemes )
4- go to themes app and chose ** Aqua theme ** & apply it
5- no need to change any permissions
this was try on huawei y 7 2017

Since you have TWRP I guess you somehow deleted all the files ....
If you have a backup file (created with TWRP) you should be able to return to a previous state.
I had a problem intalling official builds, after installing a custom ROM.
You could try to install a custom ROM, like sokkoban's (very similar to the official one).

this is the link for sokkonban's ROM. This is for ALE L21 (Dual sim if I am not mistaken). He has made some other custom ROMS for other models. You can check them out if you want, but I suggest you use chrome with translate extension.
Good luck!!!

If I am not mistaken you can enter fastboot mode even without operating system. As for the 4th requirement, I think it's not essential since you can flash the zip file through twrp.

If you want to install a custom rom you can install it through twrp. If you want to install the official build (which is very messy with emui and I do not suggest that unless you get to the service center - or anyone else can provide a working guide) you must install a custom recovery.
In my opinion, you should install a custom rom (for instance Sokkoban's) in order to have an operational phone and then find a way to install the official build.

It's weird. Try to install TWRP 3.02 again.
Then try sokkoban's ROM (the one with SU preinstalled). As long as you have the european model (C432) it should work. You should be patient, it might need more than one tries.
An other option is to try setting it up from the beginning:
go to this thead and head over to chapter 5 and install the EU dual sim files.
Also do not forget, when in fastboot mode, you use the fastboot command, not adb.

[TIPS] Revert Custom Rom to Official and untouched - Hard restore

Hi!
I see the large number of requests concerning the roolback of a custom rom to a official and untouched EMUI 4, i decide to create this thread.
After follow that methode, you able to rest on official EMUI and get the new update automatically on OTA (directly on your phone) OR try to install custom rom with a clear and good base version.
1. You ave access on TWRP?
-If not, pleas unlock your bootloader (again) and flash TWRP recovery for you actual version (marshmallow or nougat).
-perform a full wipe and restore your partitions on "ext4" format, shutdown phone.
2. Get a "oem_info.zip" for your model phone (dont extract the .zip) and push it on your internal or external sd.
-This archive contain cust and oem info for patched your phone at the correct manufacture information.
-I have a link for VNS-L31 (c432, but is not very important) HERE LINK
-If you have other model (VNS-L31) pleas find a correct patch for you (VNS-L21, ...).
3. Find and download a EMUI marshmallow official full-ota update.
-for a VNS-L31 i advice choice a VNS-L31C432B160 full-ota update.
4. Unpack your update archive.
5. Create "dload" folder on your internal or external sd and put it UPDATE.APP
6. Reboot phone on TWRP recovery and flash "oem_info.zip"
7. Use dload methode for update (hold 3 buttons phone and dont release before "dload screen" appears)
8. Unlock your bootloader again (important!) And make a factory reset
9. Your phone reboot (please wait ) and done!
Ok now you are on official version, please update on setting menu >> update and choice, rest on official or flash a custom rom..
P9 lite brick precision:
In my personal experience the "p9 lite" is very easy to flash, mod or other tips and the risk of HARD brick is very very tiny.
If you see this page and your phone bootloop, relax, keep calm at 99,999% you have a little and ridiculous brick
Good luck and flash happy!

Hi!
I see the large number of requests concerning the roolback of a custom rom to a official and untouched EMUI 4, i decide to create this thread.
After follow that methode, you able to rest on official EMUI and get the new update automatically on OTA (directly on your phone) OR try to install custom rom with a clear and good base version.
1. You ave access on TWRP?
-If not, pleas unlock your bootloader (again) and flash TWRP recovery for you actual version (marshmallow or nougat).
-perform a full wipe and restore your partitions on "ext4" format, shutdown phone.
2. Get a "oem_info.zip" for your model phone (dont extract the .zip) and push it on your internal or external sd.
-This archive contain cust and oem info for patched your phone at the correct manufacture information.
-I have a link for VNS-L31 (c432, but is not very important) HERE LINK
-If you have other model (VNS-L31) pleas find a correct patch for you (VNS-L21, ...).
3. Find and download a EMUI marshmallow official full-ota update.
-for a VNS-L31 i advice choice a VNS-L31C432B160 full-ota update.
4. Unpack your update archive.
5. Create "dload" folder on your internal or external sd and put it UPDATE.APP
6. Reboot phone on TWRP recovery and flash "oem_info.zip"

I can do everything up to point 6... won't enter to twrp... stays on Your device is now booting...
Update: I can now reach point 7 but now won't do dload (3 buttons) method... Huawei logo all the time. Can't even turn off the phone
In my other thread you post the same problem but is not entirely the same..
You succeeded to enter on fastboot mode? Flash recovery?
If you follow the steps 1-5 is impossible to fail the 6 point..
You have acces on fastboot mode or not?..

I did update the post... 3 hours ago I wasn't able to enter TWRP, some way I did managed, now I can enter fastboot, I did flash custOEM (sorry I don't remember exactly the name but it's the one of your post) .zip file. Now I can't do dload method, stuck on huawei logo. If I try to go to recovery, I got red message "phone fail validation"...
I know, I post on both but I was trying to do everything...
just tried... validation red error message won't let me go to TWRP now...
You have a VNS-L31C432?
Your phone does not enter at dload mode?
Wipe all partitions an retry flash a oeminfo for your model phone (if not C432 you need right oeminfo).

How can I wipe all partitions if stuck in Huawei logo? Is there a way to do everything from adb command line? (I'm using Mac and cannot use all the tools I've found here XDA neither hiSuite which is basically a backup photo/video only the Mac version).
Thank for helping, really appreciate
To answer your question in the other thread, yes bootloader is unlocked and I am on C432.
What's your rom have before the bootloop?
You have the right version of TWRP for your rom?
If you have a MM version Don't flash a TWRP for N.
Send me a link to TWRP version used (thread forum)

Before the bootloop I was on L31C900 (on the phone) but I did actually flashed C432B160 because I did rollback. TWRP used I've found in the other post where there's a OEMfile to flash (but for this I need to double check because I did look so many pages which I am not 100% sure.
I not have experience on other model that C435.
But i suggest to find a oeminfo for your variant (C900?)
For TWRP you need flash a version for MarshMallow HERE
Flash it and pas return here (fastboot flash return and first enter to new recovery)
Hi, found Windows emulator for MacOs so I extract from update.app boot.img and flash.
I did format all partitions as told using a proper twrp this time.
What's next step, system says NO OS INSTALLED?

Flash partitions on .img files is not needed.
Just find a corect oeminfo for your model phone.
Flash it on TWRP recovery.
Use dload methode to update on basical version (MarshMallow b160).
After that, unlock bootloader again and make a factory reset.
Switch on your phone (the first boot make long time).
Update on last emui on OTA.
Done!
After that you able to install a custom rom.

IT won't turn off so been always on it won't keep the charge... Writing so because apparently it won't go to download mode (dload) if plugged in. On the other way if I unplugged from power it won't even start. Shall I force to download mode using console ADB or FASTBOOT? I had looked but can't find anything...

Correct. Because I'm not able to switch it off it won't keep the charge. When discharged, the minute I do plug on charge it wakes up... That's the loop...
My main question is: does a command exist to enter download mode using terminal?

You have a hardware bug?
No abd command to enter dload mode..
Try flash a update.zip with twrp (not guaranted)
After that unlock bootloader again and make factory reset.

Hi, I followed this guide to go back to stock from elite rom. I flashed my oeminfo.img on twrp and then went to dload combination. Do I have to unlock the bootloader after the reboot? Thanks!
Hi,
I followed your guide and it works perfectly thanks!

In page 3 there is the new download link. It is a dual sim oeminfo but there if you read a little about it it works exactly fine on a single sim variant too.

Maybe something is not working how it should. Then connect to a usb cable which is plugged into you computer and hold vol up and pwr button. If you did it correctly now you are in erecovery. Download the latest. If it says it can't download then you are missing something..!

Flash : system, boot & recovery image via bootloader ( if its already unlocked ) it should work on any Android devices ... I don't see why here, it should be different

The PRA is a mystery. There's usually a brick in this. Often a bootloop. Sometimes it works. That's why I don't like to recommend it. Why I couldn't find out so far and therefore put a rescue rom online

I don't understand the PRA myself..I've soft-bricked mine a couple of times and have recovered using different methods and not one foolproof way.
Can I flash stock fw with twrp?
No, unless someone has a backup for you. Take the K-Rom v. 3.3 and make it unroot. Then you have a stock rom.
Hey guys, now it's time for eRecovery!!

Go back to stock rom

Hi,
I've installed a custom rom, but now i can´t install updates, Pie for example.
How can i unroot and go back to stock rom?
Thanks

I'd suggest HurUpdater: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho...h-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279/page111
OTAs do work with an unlocked bootloader, but not with root or custom kernels.
Does this works with the P10? In the post i ddin´t found the P10.
And if it works, wich zip file i have to choose? And i have root
Thanks
Try my guide (Tutorial #2, Oreo to Oreo)
After that do a factory reset with eRecovery (boot with Vol+ and connected USB).
What also should work is flashing the system.img manually via fastboot.
For this extract the system.img from the correct firmware version with Huawei Update Extractor.
Connect your phone to your PC, boot into fastboot and flash with "fastboot flash system PATH\TO\SYSTEM.IMG".
After that do a factory reset with eRecovery (boot with Vol+ and connected USB).
Note for the next time: backup your system partition via TWRP before flashing the custom rom.
Also note that a factory reset is needed, without your phone won't boot, so backup your personal data before doing it.

Yes, it works on the P10. You can download the files with the firmware finder app. I'd recommend the newest oreo version for your customisation (e.g. B382 for C432).
But Jannomag's solution should work equally well.

The fourth message in this thread
I am sorry, maybe i am just dumb but i can't find it
I followed the guide but know i am i an bootloop. I get the message "your device has failed verification and may not work properly"
It restarded, but as D188-L29!!! I download the VTR-L29 on https://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VTR-L29C432&firmware_page=0
Now i can't update or nothing

Possibly you renamed the wrong customisation file (i did it once for the 09 while I needed the 29).
Which one did you download? And did you flash manually or did you use my script?
Download my oeminfo, it's from VTR-L29C432 Version 8.0.0.380, while the version doesn't really matter.
Flash it via TWRP using "Install" and "Use Image". Flash it to oeminfo partition. Then do my update script again.
I followed the guide to do Oreo to Oreo - basically wanting to get from custom Rom (fRomFuture B370) back to stock, so I chose the same firmware version to extract. Flashed everything with the script and it went fine and it boots and works.. but
The resolution seems to be off, too low and the right side of the screen is unresponsive to touch (about 1cm )
EDIT- Rolled back to fRomFuture B370 for now - need to find a way to get back to stock, as want to move on to Openkirin ROM instead
HI, i have a vtr-l29 root, i want to unroot(version oreo), how do i do it? what do i need to flash?. thank you Alex
