Hi everybody, I'm new on xda and I just received my P9, chinese version. Great phone by the firt impression, but after a some time spent configuring it I still have some "issues":
- I'm not able to download the googe dialer and contacts apps from the play store
- I only receive notifications from some apps (ie whatsapp and facebook) if they are opened in the multitasking (I know, there is already at least one thread on this topic but I didn't found any solution)
- I can't find a way to change the action associated to the long press of the home button and get rid of hi voice (I reallt want to try now on tap)
If anyone know how to individually solve these problems please tell me
Anyway, hoping to solve them and get rid of all the little residues of chinese language, I'm thinking of trying to install the international firmware: first of all, is it possible? From what I've read I must flash the oeminfo and the dload files, so I suppose that after unlocking the bootloader I have to install TWRP, do I also have to root the phone?
Last thing, how can I backup the current oeminfo and firmware in case anything goes wrong or I decide/need to revert the process?
Thanks for the attention and sorry for my english
Come on guys, can anyone help me?

I have the same problem! I would like to flash the international firmware but I can't find any tutorial. Someone can help us?

Desperate for some help.... Huawei P9 - AL00 Chinese phone
Hi guys,
BUMP this thread.
I too have a Huawei P9 - AL00 - EVA AL00C00B176 - EMUI 4.1 on android 6.0 | I would like to flash the phone with an L09 European firmware (standard). I've been reading through a lot of threads and here is what I've done so far:
used the DC unlocker to unlock my phone and get bootloader code - successful
used the SRKtool to try install TWRP (to get root). It says installed but I cannot boot to TWRP - just boots normally or boots into erecovery - have tried installing TWRP via three methods - fastboot, SRK, Paulobreun, "spanish one", etc. None have worked so far. Have tried switching phone off, on with volume up + power button. NOTHING.
SRK tool is excellent but haven't been able to get past root - ADB server WAITING FOR DEVICE. Fastboot mode is the only mode that seems to work - have once been able to get SRK tool to load correctly in Debug mode.
Have the phone in debugging mode and have tried using the *#*#2846579#*#* to set to manufacturing mode - waiting for device endures. ONLY DC Unlocker seems to connect properly once in manufacturing mode * note - I don't have OEM unlocker option in Debugger.
Please can someone assist guys like us to get these awesome phones working as needed
Many thanks,
The_JooP
It is Volume DOWN + power button. Not up.
And if you have SRK tool, there is a Utility menu where you can boot your phone in Recovery, Bootloader and eRecovery mode.
The AL00 actually has the latest and quickest updates. It just updated to B183 yesterday.
If you want the European version, I think you should re-brand your phone before you flash any European firmware.
There is a tutorial for re-branding:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/vdo-guide-how-to-debrand-huawei-phone-t3410045
Up this thred!
I'm in the same situation with AL-10 Chinese version.
Want to flash Europe/international version.
I downloaded SRK tool and saw there that oeminfo for EVA-L29 is not available.
After flash oeminfo/wipe I can flash the version by dload?

Accordingly to the TWRP installation guide, many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot, so After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo (Volume UP, no need power button in this case) and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install. (source: https://twrp.me/devices/huaweip9.html)
So, you shouldn't let your phone reboot "normally", but you must force it to reboot on TWRP from the beginning.

Volume DOWN is for fastboot, but for enter in recovery mode, Volume UP is correct.

I solved this issue with the right settings in the Permission manager: you have to launch the Permission manager, choosing the Facebook, Whatsapp,... or the application you need to get notifications and be sure that is selected the option "App auto-launch" (in this case if the app is not open in multitasking, it will be by herself).
You have also to be careful to the Phone Manager application (is not a Settings option, is just an application herself) because has the "Power usage firewall (power-intensive apps)" function that if is not well setup, it literally kills the application that are running on background. So in the case you need notifications, you need to allow functions like "System wakeup" and "Keep running after screen off". "Power-intensive prompt" is good to be disabled in the case of whatsapp-like applications.

I also tried everywhere and I didn't found anything. I will try to search if there is any system file that could be modified (of course, will be necessary to have rooted phone).
NOTE:
I have an EVA-AL00 (Chinese version) but I keeped the stock rom and most of the application (I just removed the 100%chinese-unusefullhere applications). I honestly didn't found any big issue that push me to change to an international rom, but if for any reason I will decide to install it, you will be the first to know.

The main point to me is about the integration of the softwares.
I basically use Google for everything. But when you have the Chinese ROM, Uber for example will launch Baidu maps instead of Google's. The MI Fit app, to use with Mi band will not be integrated with Google fit, but other chinesse app. It wouldn't be a problem if the app has English or PT-BR support, but most of the time they don't.

If the app is only in Chinese language or is only based with chinese services I really recommend to uninstall it (you can do the normal Uninstall procedure with most of Apps), apps that I uninstalled immediately are for example Videos (Huawei Videos), HiWallet, HiPay, Baidu, Vmall and few others that had chinese name.
I just tried to use Uber and it launches correctly Google Maps. Of course, I repeat, you have to uninstall Baidu.
If you use Google for everything, probably you are also using Chrome. In this case the stock (Chinese) browser cannot be uninstalled (because is a system app) but instead of "Uninstall" you can "Disable" it (same menu for uninstalling, just different text): after disabling it, Chrome (or any other browser) will became the default one.
Just double checked on my Huawei P9 EVA-AL00C00B183 (but I'm sure is the same with B176 also)
P.S.
I don't know MI Fit, but if we are speaking about the Xiaomi application, we are speaking about a completely different (and quite off topic) smartphone philosophy.

I just posted a guide here: How to replace HiVoice vocal assistant on Chinese versions of P9 that just explain step-by-step how to remove HiVoice. With my own surprise, Now on Tap replaced it by default (but I already had Google Now installed).

I found google dialer is very hard to install in non-Nexus devices and I suppose for the P9 will be the same. I didn't try 3rd parties dialers, yet, but I want to do as soon as possible. Anyway the stock dialer is working well, except for the "Yellow pages" junk, which has only the title translated and all the rest is Chinese only
Huawei P9 recovery is weird, hold power + vol up is Huawei's eRecovery, power + vol down is FASTBOOT, and power + vol up + vol down is TWRP, hope this helps anyone.
has anyone tried using the OTA links to force update to Nougat on the AL00?
I've been wanting to update my AL00, but the OTA links all seem to be for the international versions (L09/L19) so i just want to know if they'll work for an AL00..

Hello. Couldn't find a post related to this. I'm not a lazy browser, been on XDA for many years through many phones. Just haven't had the need for a user account until now.
I see the 7.2.4.0.0 version is removed from MIUI websites and i can think of a few reasons already.
Does anyone else have this problem too? I have the 3GB version and normally start out with 1.7gb RAM after a boot. Gradually over the day (even after closing apps) it goes slowly down to 200mb and i have to do a reboot.
Or Does anyone have the 6.5.30 version and could tell if it uses up the RAM over time?
Sincerely
John

You have a fake rom. 7.2.4.0.0 is not an official MIUI rom and newer was. 7.2.4.0 is an official rom.
You should flash the official rom.

You are on an un-official modefied version.
The fake version is 7.2.4.0.0 <- your version.
The real official and supported by Xiaomi version is 7.2.4.0
Hi,
Hope I can get some help. I recently just picked up a unit and am on 7.2.4.0.0. Realised it was a fake rom but I seem to have trouble flashing the global rom or the china stable rom. Believe my bootloader is locked at this point and have applied through the unlock miui website but that will take at least 10 days or more to get the SMS.
Frustratingly, I have seen some solutions on the miui forum and there was one proposed solution, of which many were finding success, that includes booting to recovery mode and then hitting shift + [flash] when connected to the Chinese miPCsuite. My update only goes by to mid 50% levels and then its stuck on for several hours! Is this a USBC to USB port incompatibility issue (if it was it wouldn't have recognized the phone right?) or is my phone just beyond saving ? At this point, im not confident in using other solutions as they look highly technical and some have highlighted that their phone has bricked in doing so.
Appreciate any advice! thanks. PLEASE HELP!

if you already tried the simple steps as stated then there are no more simpl steps left.
Do an EDL flash and make sure you clear all, and be aware that most Mi flash stuff works best on Windows 64Bit.

What he said, download the latest, both files can be obtained HERE
-MiFlash tool - step 1
-official fastboot rom - step 2
install the MiFlash tool
extract the downloaded rom (tgz) then extract the output file (tar) > make sure you copy the path of the directory where you see all the files like flash_all flash_all_lock etc..
reboot your phone into fastboot mode (you can access this by turning off your phone, hold vol - and power)
make sure you have adb on your pc
type this: the first line is optional to see if the phone is recognized.
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot oem edl
edit: I should mention, do not panic, the screen of the device will turn black but will still remain on.
launch the MiFlash tool
Click on Refresh, you will see a device right now in the list called COM (some number) >>>> it will be ticked
Paste the copied directory path into the white... uhh search bar thingy . or just click Browse and select the appropriate path.
Click Flash
edit: once done, simply unplug your phone and restart it by pressing the power button.
That should be all

Thanks for the reply! Before proceeding, I actually received the SMS to unlock the bootloader but im still at work so I cant go back and attempt the unlock. So just trying to manage my expectations here.
Is it safe to assume that all I need to do now is log in to the unlock tool by miui and unlock? because im still on 7.2.4.0.0 (the unofficial discontinued rom) and I have no way of flashing it to any other roms. My last attempt last night was again, stuck at 52% after a nights worth of wait! TT

Thanks for the help. I will attempt this as a last resort. I just received the SMS to unlock my bootloader. Hopefully its as simple as logging in and unlocking so I can get rid of this pesky 7.2.4.0.0 supposed "Global" rom.
i have successfully flashed to global rom!!! but now i have no audio coming from the speakers!!!! is it just my luck!!!??? and after reflashing again.. its completely dead.. its goes into the sign in to miui welcome page and just goes insane.. like to the point where i cant even select options and and random menu sounds keep coming up.. cant even turn off i had to reboot to fastboot.. is a goner? sighs..
7.2.4.0.0 to Resurrection Remix (CM13)
- unlock bootloader
- flash TWRP with fastboot
- install Resurrection Remix
- install GApps
- reboot, now it's say Google play stopped.
- go back to TWRP
- wipe data
- reboot and everything is working
Hey, few weeks ago i had an upgrade to EMUI 5.0 on my EVA-LO9 P9. Since the update i've lost all the applications like calculator, camera etc etc. Bluetooth was not workign aswell. So i checked on forums and i red that i've to do a rollback. I tried but it was stopping at 5% every time giving an unknown error. So after that i did factory reset using volume up and power key button while phone was off. After that i had to configure my phone again but i can't, because i don't have keybord. Only voice keyboard is working and obviously i can't enter my google account using it. So i can't move any files to my P9 from PC and vice versa to try rollback with other files. Can't get access to android at all. Do you guys know what should i do? My phone is semi-bricked right now.
Thanks in advance for a fast answer, i have to get it to work ASAP.
Regards!
Try to install 3rd party keyboard via moboginie... Make sure the developer option and debugging is enabled. Then try the rollback package. It should work then
But the thing is that i can't even enter developer options to enable debugging.. because I cant get past adding a google account to my device. I don't have access to my android at all. I dont have access to my P9 from my PC when i connect it via usb aswell.

I had a similar problem today. So I was on EVA-L19C432B383 and wanted to downgrade to EVA-L19C432B378 with dload method.Updated went 100% then a message came up at boot stating storage requires password or something like that. Then I read on a forum to wipe data/factory reset. I did that and the problem with the keyboard appeared(only voice). Flashed like 10 stock roms but didn't manage. SOOO finally after 7 frustrating hours I was able to flash (dload method) the rollback from N to MM update from this link www .stechguide.com/downgrade-huawei-p9-from-android-nougat-to-marshmallow/ the european version (Download Huawei P9 Nougat Rollback Package for EVA-L09 (Europe) it works for L19 also) and then I flashed the rom EVA-L19C432B182. Thank god It was alive again (the rom I downloaded using firmware finder for pc). Hope it helps!

you have to flash the data package from my twrp, you just updated the core system.
Could you give me your current build id? (example: L09CxxxBxxx)
this is exactly what happened to my p9+
any solutions? mine is still stuck like this. the only firmware that finished installing is the south east asia but when it optimizes the phone, it fails. and back to nrd90m.
step by step guide on how to fix this please?
Brand new here, looking to unlock, root and then flash a standard Android build or custom DeGoogled ROM for my new device. I was looking to find a way to unlock the bootloader to start and found that Huawei have stopped giving out unlock codes and that the info around unlocking wasn't great so I made a note of all my steps as below.
Please let me know if this works for you and if you have any issues, please also read and follow the guidelines carefully as there are lots of things like using all the applications as an administator and changing directories that are important.
I am also looking for a way to install TWRP or another recovery thing on this device so I don't brick it, as I want to root the tablet and muck around with it. Has anyone got any experience of doing this successfully and does anyone have links to methods to create a cloned backup of the standard OS?
This was done on a brand new Mediapad M3 Lite 8 (the Wifi version, not LTE) with Android 7.0, EMUI 5.1, CPN-W09, build CPN-W09C100B251 - BUT will probably work on the LTE version, the non-lite version and the 7 and 10 inch models.
IMPORTANT: This costs money and is done through the DC Unlocker tool, it costs 4 credits (4 euros/dollars) for the Mediapad M3 Lite 8 (Wifi, not LTE) as Huawei now do not offer the bootloader code AT ALL . I have copied/streamlined the steps below that were found as guides originally at the dc unlocker website, check their site guides to find originals.
Step 1 - Developer Options enable
Go to settings, about tablet, tap build number 7 times to unlock developer options
Go to developer options, enable OEM unlock, enable USB debugging
Step 2 - Enable manufacture mode
If your phone has a dialpad, enter dial pad code *#*#2846579#*#*
IF your phone doesn't have a dialpad, go to calculator and enter ()()2846579()()=
This willl take you to a developer menu, select "Project Menu", "Background settings", "USB ports settings", "Manufacture mode".
Step 3 - Install drivers
Connect your Android device to your PC with a usb cable and either install Hisuite from the connected drive that will attach, or download it from the Huawei website by searching for Huawei Hisuite and going to their official website.
To check this has worked, go to Device Manager on your PC and look for Modems - there should be an entry called Android Adapter Modem - if this is not present try disconnecting/reconnecting your device and restarting Hisuite.
Step 4 - Read bootloader code
Download the latest DC Unlocker tool from dc-unlocker dot com and extract it, then AS AN ADMINISTRATOR (right click and Run as Administrator) run the client.exe (was called dc-unlockerclient2.exe)
Click Select Manufacturer dropdown and change to Huawei Phones, not Modems, press the magnifier/search icon at bottom left and your phone info should be found. This should also
Step 5 - Buy credits from the dc unlocker site as a new user, try 4 credits first and then login with these new user details in the dc unlocker application on your PC, this will show your credits and the phone connected as well as the cost. Click the Unlocking icon on the top right and click Read botloader code to get your code. Make a note of this/copy it somewhere.
Step 6 - Go back to the folder that dc unlocker is in
Go into the unzipped folder and then copy the location of this folder by clicking on the address bar in File Explorer and copying this location, you'll have something similar to
C:\Users\ExampleUser\Downloads\dc-unlocker2client_1.00.1403
Step 7 - Turn off your phone and turn it back on holding the Vol down and Power buttons to enter fastboot mode, connect your device to your PC
Step 8 - Open cmd by searching for cmd in windows, right click cmd and open it as administrator, you'll get the black and white windows terminal
In the terminal type "cd C:\Users\ExampleUser\Downloads\dc-unlocker2client_1.00.1403" (or the path for the latest version of the dc unlocker you have downloaded) without the quotation marks and with YOUR directory path as described above. The command cd just changes directory to the one you give. Your terminal should now show the above directory as the path in which it now sends commands, i.e the > mark is now displayed after the directory path we copied
Step 9 - Type "adb devices" without quotation marks to start the adb daemon
Step 10 - Type "fastboot devices" without quotation marks and you should see a device number with the word fastboot next to it.
Step 11 - Now type "fastboot oem unlock" without the quotation marks, followed by a space and then your bootloader unlock code i.e
fastboot oem unlock XYZ123456789
Step 12 - Your device should show a screen asking you to accept the unlock, then onto another screen where you should press the power key to continue onto booting your factory reset unlocked device.
Step 13 - You might have to disconnect the USB cable and reboot your device now, and you'll set up the device from scratch again - but now the bootloader unlocked, allowing you to load stuff like TWRP if you can find the right version - which I can't right now! :good:
I have also now been able to install TWRP by using the TWRP image specifically for BAH-W09 found on page 17 of the "TWRP (greatslon mod)" in the link provided by pitapart
thread. I can't post links yet which is why I'm typing to source....
I have been trying to flash SuperSU using the latest 2.82 zip but keep getting the error "Extracting Ramdisk - Failure, aborting", which is the same error I'm getting when trying to root using SRKtool, both the 2.1 universal version and the 2.0 Huawei version, using option 1 for Mate P8 or option 6 for systemless.
I've downloaded a system root version of SuperSU (google "supersu system mode", first XDA thread) and flashed using TWRP, it says it has installed but the SuperSU app doesn't show root, and typing "su" in TWRP console doesn't show I can do commands in superuser mode. Can anyone help?
I recently have been purchased the LTE version of this device. Although I cannot try this out currently, I probably will in the future so please keep us updated about your experiments for reference!

I have also now been able to install TWRP by using the TWRP image specifically for BAH-W09 found on page 17 of the "TWRP (greatslon mod)" in the link provided by pitapart
thread. I can't post links yet which is why I'm typing to source....
I have been trying to flash SuperSU using the latest 2.82 zip but keep getting the error "Extracting Ramdisk - Failure, aborting", which is the same error I'm getting when trying to root using SRKtool, both the 2.1 universal version and the 2.0 Huawei version, using option 1 for Mate P8 or option 6 for systemless.
I've downloaded a system root version of SuperSU (google "supersu system mode", first XDA thread) and flashed using TWRP, it says it has installed but the SuperSU app doesn't show root, and typing "su" in TWRP console doesn't show I can do commands in superuser mode. Can anyone help?

Hi,
Were you ever able to get your Mediapad M3 Lite 8 rooted? I really like this tablet but, need the 5 Ghz wifi band which requires root from everything I have read.
Thanks

I have my Mediapad M3 Lite rooted by magisk.
I followed the unlock guide and unlocked the bootloader.
I couldn't find my exact firmware I downloaded the most recent one I could find.
I extracted the boot.img with Huawei Update extractor and copied it to my phone.
I download and installed latest magisk app.
I opened the magic app-> install -> install -> patch the boot image file which I then flashed through fastboot.
I then opened magisk -> install -> Direct install.
Everything works but like me you take a risk in not using the exact boot.img.
I tried and installed TWRP which worked but the volume keys would let me run the script I was trying to rebrand the phone. In the end it isn't necessary to root the phone.

Very bad idea and advice:
- people often uses wrong firmware or wrong version;
- a boot from a different version can be incompatible, you can be sure only too late!
The right thing is to boot to TWRP then in the console, using "dd" command do a copy of original boot!

Very poor reply, you did not read my post properly, just jumped in to demonstrate your superciliousness. No advice was given and you missed the word risk. More productive use of replying would have been to include the actual command required anyway which is:
dd if=/dev/block/boot-device/by-name/boot of=boot.img
Helping wasn't the point your trying to make.

A post like your IS an advice because people read and follow it. What is wrong is not that you write or my opinion but people behaviour
I read the "risk" word but a lot of people would not. This is also the reason I don't wrote the dd command: search and learn! Most of the messages you read here are of people who have broken their own terminal because just followed a post like your, without knowing what are doing.

I see in your first screenshot the fingerprint-id menuentry is gone.... does your fingerprint-sensor working properly ?
I rooted my mediapad m3 lite 10 in the same way, but my boot-image is the right version. ( installed is BAH-W09C100B257, firmware downloaded with the huawei firmware finder app is exactly BAH-W09C100B257) . My fingerprint menuentry is gone too.....and the sensor doesnt work (with the working registered fingerprint before the rooting)

I did not have the fingerprint option activated so I checked it and found my sensor also does not work with the patched boot.img on. I could search and find the fingerprint menu entry but could not get it to operate. Reflashing the stock boot.img returned the sensor menu and fingerprint to normal but of course you lose root. More searching for solutions required.
Also I'm using the TWRP-3.2.1-bah-20180627.img recovery. The volume keys don't work so the hurupdater script I'd like to use aborts. Anyone got any other recovery for a CPN-W09C128B006?.

Brand new here, looking to unlock, root and then flash a standard Android build or custom DeGoogled ROM for my new device. I was looking to find a way to unlock the bootloader to start and found that Huawei have stopped giving out unlock codes and that the info around unlocking wasn't great so I made a note of all my steps as below.
Please let me know if this works for you and if you have any issues, please also read and follow the guidelines carefully as there are lots of things like using all the applications as an administator and changing directories that are important.
I am also looking for a way to install TWRP or another recovery thing on this device so I don't brick it, as I want to root the tablet and muck around with it. Has anyone got any experience of doing this successfully and does anyone have links to methods to create a cloned backup of the standard OS?
This was done on a brand new Mediapad M3 Lite 8 (the Wifi version, not LTE) with Android 7.0, EMUI 5.1, CPN-W09, build CPN-W09C100B251 - BUT will probably work on the LTE version, the non-lite version and the 7 and 10 inch models.
IMPORTANT: This costs money and is done through the DC Unlocker tool, it costs 4 credits (4 euros/dollars) for the Mediapad M3 Lite 8 (Wifi, not LTE) as Huawei now do not offer the bootloader code AT ALL . I have copied/streamlined the steps below that were found as guides originally at the dc unlocker website, check their site guides to find originals.
Step 1 - Developer Options enable
Go to settings, about tablet, tap build number 7 times to unlock developer options
Go to developer options, enable OEM unlock, enable USB debugging
Step 2 - Enable manufacture mode
If your phone has a dialpad, enter dial pad code *#*#2846579#*#*
IF your phone doesn't have a dialpad, go to calculator and enter ()()2846579()()=
This willl take you to a developer menu, select "Project Menu", "Background settings", "USB ports settings", "Manufacture mode".
Step 3 - Install drivers
Connect your Android device to your PC with a usb cable and either install Hisuite from the connected drive that will attach, or download it from the Huawei website by searching for Huawei Hisuite and going to their official website.
To check this has worked, go to Device Manager on your PC and look for Modems - there should be an entry called Android Adapter Modem - if this is not present try disconnecting/reconnecting your device and restarting Hisuite.
Step 4 - Read bootloader code
Download the latest DC Unlocker tool from dc-unlocker dot com and extract it, then AS AN ADMINISTRATOR (right click and Run as Administrator) run the client.exe (was called dc-unlockerclient2.exe)
Click Select Manufacturer dropdown and change to Huawei Phones, not Modems, press the magnifier/search icon at bottom left and your phone info should be found. This should also
Step 5 - Buy credits from the dc unlocker site as a new user, try 4 credits first and then login with these new user details in the dc unlocker application on your PC, this will show your credits and the phone connected as well as the cost. Click the Unlocking icon on the top right and click Read botloader code to get your code. Make a note of this/copy it somewhere.
Step 6 - Go back to the folder that dc unlocker is in
Go into the unzipped folder and then copy the location of this folder by clicking on the address bar in File Explorer and copying this location, you'll have something similar to
C:\Users\ExampleUser\Downloads\dc-unlocker2client_1.00.1403
Step 7 - Turn off your phone and turn it back on holding the Vol down and Power buttons to enter fastboot mode, connect your device to your PC
Step 8 - Open cmd by searching for cmd in windows, right click cmd and open it as administrator, you'll get the black and white windows terminal
In the terminal type "cd C:\Users\ExampleUser\Downloads\dc-unlocker2client_1.00.1403" (or the path for the latest version of the dc unlocker you have downloaded) without the quotation marks and with YOUR directory path as described above. The command cd just changes directory to the one you give. Your terminal should now show the above directory as the path in which it now sends commands, i.e the > mark is now displayed after the directory path we copied
Step 9 - Type "adb devices" without quotation marks to start the adb daemon
Step 10 - Type "fastboot devices" without quotation marks and you should see a device number with the word fastboot next to it.
Step 11 - Now type "fastboot oem unlock" without the quotation marks, followed by a space and then your bootloader unlock code i.e
fastboot oem unlock XYZ123456789
Step 12 - Your device should show a screen asking you to accept the unlock, then onto another screen where you should press the power key to continue onto booting your factory reset unlocked device.
Step 13 - You might have to disconnect the USB cable and reboot your device now, and you'll set up the device from scratch again - but now the bootloader unlocked, allowing you to load stuff like TWRP if you can find the right version - which I can't right now! :good:

Did you ever get and answer to your question about cloning or getting the original factory images. I've been trying on and off for 9months. I have unlocked the bootloader and backed up using TWRP (from the 10inch model), but when I relocked the bootloader everything fell apart... unstable boot loops, etc. not sure if I had to wipe recovery I burned with TWRP or what. Also TWRP does not back-up the data partition I think due to encryption (from other posts I read). My goal was to rebrand a pile of the Chinese version tablets I have to US because we use them in our product, and the US are not available, so rebranding would give me more time before to find a replacement. Any clues would help!!!

You have to use the calculator in landscape mode (turn on auto-rotate) and then the bracket buttons will appear.
So I finally got around to installing this on my stock version. I found 16GB was too limiting and I was hoping to use the SD card to expand the space so I could use it for a few more years. I purchased the code from DC_unlocker.
A couple of things I noticed while following the guide. To enter fastboot mode, holding down the volume down and power button doesn't seem to work. What you to do is while it's off, hold down the volume down button and plug in the microusb cable, while continuing to hold it down. You could also enter fastboot using an ADB command.
Also I couldn't wipe anything before installing the new roms, I got error messages. I'm not sure what that means. Anyways after installing android 9, it seemed to take a very long time to first boot. The graphic animation is going, but I wasn't sure if it was working so I hard reset once, tried to boot again and then waited again, hard reset again and put it down thinking I would have to look into the error messages and when I came back it was up and running.
Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me out here.
A few days ago, I followed the instructions unlocking the bootloader of my Mediapad M3 lite 8 (CPN-W09) and sure enough, I successfully unlocked the bootloader. However I've now run into another problem - I cannot get the FRP on the tablet to be unlocked!
Nothing I've tried seems to get it to unlock. The (only) Google account used on the tablet has been my own, and it's been no problem signing back into my account when factory resetting the tablet. One time when investigating it, after a factory reset it did say that it was "restricted" but again, adding my Google account details on the setup was no issue, but even after then deleting the account (which, if I'm right, should set FRP to "unlocked") when I enter into fastboot mode it still shows FRP as locked! And it shows it no matter what I do, wherever the Google account is "active" on the tablet or not, and the last four or five times I've did a factory reset with both data and cache partition wipes done and nothing budges. I think I'm at a lost cause here - the "OEM Unlock" option in the developer settings is totally greyed out. ?
Of course, the tablet is still "usable" but there is no way to carry out special functions after unlocking the bootloader, like rooting, install TWRP, custom ROM etc. and it just kinds of stands in a limbo.
I've tried searching here on XDA and the web in general, high and low, to see if this problem has affected anyone else, and strangely it doesn't seem to happen to anyone else!
For the record, I've also tried hardreset.info's FRP unlock tool which claimed to be successful, but it clearly wasn't!
I hope someone out there might have a solution to my woe - as I think I've partially crippled by M3 Lite 8 otherwise by trying to unlock the bootloader.

I did try this at the time, and I couldn't get it to work. But I had another try at it yesterday and I managed to get the bootloader locked again, toggle OEM unlock to "off" and unlocked the bootloader once more and it worked!
So after doing this, I tried to get TWRP 3.3.1-1 flashed but it would stay frozen on the screen - I then read that I needed to install TWRP 3.2.0-0 first, install the August 2019 Lineage 16 firmware, then go back to the bootloader, flash TWRP 3.3.1-0, check everything was OK and then return to bootloader to finally flash TWRP 3.3.1-1. Success! I then flashed the latest Lineage OS 17.1 firmware along with Open Gapps (ARM64, Android 10, nano) and so far everything has worked OK. I just need to download all my apps again, but I'm sure it will give my CPN-W09 a new lease of life!
I used to do some rooting previously with Android handsets in the past, but the last time was two years ago (rooting & upgrading an Alcatel handset to Android 6.0) and FRP was new to me, throwing me off.
I've donated some Euros to you as an appreciation for your work & advice. Merci beaucoup!

maybe these? looks pretty old but still working? Oo
I just saw an update notification that Android 11 had been released. Since my phone was running Android 10, I proceeded the update without hesitation (and without backup). The phone is running stock rom without root (I guess I did unlock the bootloader but couldn't confirm since this new rom version cannot boot into fastboot mode). After update, the lock screen keeps flicking and I cannot unlock the phone. I tried booting into safe mode but got the same flicking lock screen.
The rollback pack has flagged 'ota-downgrade=yes' so data will always be wiped.
Code:
... "ota-downgrade=yes" will be set in the package metadata file. A data wipe will always be enforced when using this flag...
I guess my last hope is that
Option 1) Wish I really did unlock the boot loader and some gurus found a way to boot into fastboot mode and flash the customer recovery/android 10 so I can pull my photos/videos by adb.
Option 2) Tried booting into recovery but no new OTA update available. Wait for new OTA update
Option 3) Some found a way to
a) boot into EDL/Download mode and
b) flash TWRP/Android 10 using QPST/QFIL (Not possible currently since Qualcomm QPST/QFIL tools did not work and official realme flash (MSMDownloadTool) ALWAYS wipe your data!)
Option 4) Someone got the private key so we can sign our customized-made update_pack and copy photos/videos to OTG USB Drive under Recovery.
Option 5) Someone share a rollback pack with 'override_timestamp=yes' instead of "ota-downgrade=yes" so data will NOT be wiped
Any comments are welcome

No.
I want my data back and waiting for next update seems to be the only hope. Reported to realme but get no response.
If you have similar issue and don't care your data, you can do factory reset.
Am on the same boat here, Bluetooth devices still get automatically connected, USB works (mouse and keyboard) but still haven't found a way past the flicking login screen.
Happened overnight and last backup was quite a few months ago, definitively need to get the data back.
- Edit: Booting to safe-mode doesn't help either.
- Edit2: Can't attempt any update because the device is not accepting my lockscreen password either.

If you disabled or uninstalled the coloros calendar package via ADB, enable or reinstall it again via ADB, the new System UI in the Android 11 update relies on it
This really sucks.
Any solution yet? Would be happy if I could just get access to my photos...
BTW for future reference, I'm on a Realme X Lite. I actually was positively surprised with this phone (up and running perfectly for over 2 years), but this policy is quite shocking...

I forgot what I exactly did to get out of the situation. From what I very vaguely remember, it might have involved tapping where the Allow button would be very quickly before the whole UI crashes. Then, depending on whether you disabled or uninstalled the weather package, you either enable or "install-existing" the package name.
How to install / get back uninstalled Apps (APKs) with ADB.

Thanks for the tips. It seems my situation is a bit difference. I can't even see the unlock pattern screen to let me unlock the phone before I can tap "allow" for USB connection and entering ADB commands. Maybe yours have the screen lock disabled before updating.
Hi,
My Google Voice Services aren't listening what I say. In all apps I try to use a voice command that uses the Google, it appears the green microphone icon that indicates permission and usage by the app but it simply does not listen anything. Like in the screenshot below. I can use microphone to send audio in whatsapp, messenger and calls so I know that it is working.
I think this problem began after updating to MIUI 13.
I've got MIUI 13.0.5 Global.
I tried a bunch of things including hard reset, updating, cache clearing and nothing. It simply wont listening to what I say in Google, YT, Maps, etc ...
Before I did the hardreset I had a XiaomiMiSpeech app and tought with could be that but after the reset, it didn't appear so its not that .
Is anyone with the same problem? Is there any hope to fix this?
Thanks!

In all apps I try to use a voice command that uses the Google, it appears the green microphone icon that indicates permission and usage by the app but it simply does not listen anything. Like in the screenshot below. I can use microphone to send audio in whatsapp, messenger and calls so I know that it is working.
I think this problem began after updating to MIUI 13.
I've got MIUI 13.0.5 Global.
I tried a bunch of things including hard reset, updating, cache clearing and nothing. It simply wont listening to what I say in Google, YT, Maps, etc ...
Before I did the hardreset I had a XiaomiMiSpeech app and tought with could be that but after the reset, it didn't appear so its not that .
Is anyone with the same problem? Is there any hope to fix this?
Thanks!

Have you tried ?
settings/additional settings/languages and input
vocal synthesis output
select your language not auto
check if you select read it works
and
settings/google/
settings for google/search apps, voice assistant/voice/languages
and other parameters to check in these parameters
Not a global rom

Hi NOSS8,
I went to additional settings, like you said. Selected my language Portuguese (Portugal) and then Read, and yes. The lady talked fine. Loud and clear.
Then, I went to Google Settings and choose in all defs Portuguese (Portugal). Entering Voice Match, in only appears to turn on or off Ok Google, that it seems doesn't work in Portuguese.
Reboot and it remains the same. It doesn't listen to a single word I say but the green microphone being used icon continues to appear.
In CIT the Main Mic test also doesn't listen. The needle moves a little but it doesn't give the PASS.
I've got MIUI Global 13.0.5 Stable SKDEUVF

When the microphone appears click on it to check permissions.
And in English for example is this the same.
are you sure Global 13.0.5 Stable SKDEUVF VF? EU is a EEA rom

Screenshot's. It's all with microphone permissions.
And yes, it's VF. What does a EEA Rom means?
Thanks.

it is a branded phone(vf).
EEA rom for EUROPE.
Is everything up to date on the play store?
It may come from the rom, you can downgrade or update with another version but it doesn't happen overnight.

Yes, after the hardreset I updated everything in play store and xiaomi updater apps.
In my other Xiaomi's I've installed Xiaomi.eu but it's been a long time and I don't remember it well and I'm afraid of getting this phone bricked. I know the bootloader must be unlocked and it takes some days, but installing the ROM it's the hard part. And I don't know if Xiaomi.eu continues to be better.
Other thing is that after the hard reset the phone restored all settings, app's, and etc.

Yeap ,Xiaomi eu rom is always better.
As said above you have a VF version (I assume Vodafone), the updates come from your operators and not from the official channel (this may explain this).
After unlocking, you will need to install a global rom and then a Xiaomi EU rom.
If you want to do that, I can post you the whole procedure.
Obviously if you rent this phone do not do that.

No, phone is mine. I bought it at Vodafone with points in a Father's Day promo. Xiaomi 11T Pro and a Xiaomi Electric Scooter for around 400€ euros.
If you could post the whole procedure it would be awesome. Thanks!

Normally yeah.
For the photos put them directly on your pc.
For double security also use PC backup.
Settings/my device/backup etc. choose computer, this will create a backup folder that you will put on the pc.
