Hello, go to this link mega:#fm/i5x1SQiD is downloaded to the folder where there is inside another 'dload' folder that you will copy to a microSD which in turn will need to enter in P9 Plus. It 'a file that I downloaded from this forum, but I do not remember which thread. Then restart your phone by holding down the volume button in the center (Ne below and above it). At that point it will start loading and at the end will reboot or do you start again. This allows you to change the microSD with another in which there is always the dload folder with the file corresponding to your update.app P9 Plus firmware. Repeat the reboot and hold the volume button. Unless smoothly you should go back an Android Marshmallow.

I had a similar situation and called Huawei service centre to send me labelled envelope to send for repair. But soon, I wanted to give it few tries. Within few hours I brought my device to life.
I don't know the ways you tried to get on to bootloader mode (download mode). Once you get in to download mode then you can bring your device back to working.
Connect USB cable with your PC. Press volume down button firmly and now plug the USB cable in to your device. Keep pressing down "volume down" button until you get in to download mode. Flash stock recovery (the version I had when bought my device was EVA-L09C432B166).
Copy on to your external sdcard the dload folder having full stock ROM suitable to your device (MM 6.0 version and not naugat version). I would suggest to use PC to copy dload folder to your external sdcard and then load it back on to your device.
Now press volume up and down button together and press power button. When you see Huawei logo, keep pressing volume up and down button together until you see screen showing update starts.

Copy the entire dload folder in to sdcard. You can also use through other phone and use the external sd card. It should work. As long as you know how to get in to fastboot screen your phone is live and you don't have to be panic.

You are nearly there. Check the UPDATE.APP file size. If it is around 2gb then it is a full firmware. All you have to do is, create a folder as dload and copy UPDATE.APP in to the folder. Also, you may need META-INF files inside dload folder (may be update works without this META-INF). Try without this META-INF. I have sent META-INF in zipped file. You can download and unzip in to dload folder.
Good luck.

This method probably will not work because in order to get custom ROM working, you must have already replaced stock recovery with TWRP or CWM...

Follow next steps only if 1st file installed successfully
Remove update.app file from dload folder.
After that extract “update_data_full_hw_meafnaf.zip” and move all files to dload folder and install it, using 3 button force update method (Switch off your phone and hold 3 buttons (volume up, volume down, and power) until you see update start screen.

So I have a p10, and decided to see what i could do with it. Having little experience, I managed to get somewhere. Unlocked the bootloader, got twrp, installed it with the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and got:
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'recovery' (32034 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.012s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.200s]
finished. total time: 1.222s
WOOT! Awesome! No problems! Then I issued: fastboot boot recovery.img
And got
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 1.020s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 1.030s
WTF?!
So after a bit, I misread and flashed boot.img with: fastboot flash boot boot.img
I guess I flashed the wrong image. I dunno. But now it boots into the screen that tells me "Your device is unlocked and can'r be trusted" tells me its booting, reboots, goes to the same screen again, says its rebooting again, then brings me to Huawei eRecovery. I connect to my wifi network, telling it to download the latest version and recover, and it says "getting package info failed" So I ma stuck with a device that won't boot.
Oh yes, and down volume and power don't bring me to fastboot anymore.
Begging for help here please.
Do the whole rebranding to unbrick, not sure if you flashed wrong image on boot.
Advice: When flashing recovery boot it by powering off and using key combo. Or adb command. Not from fastboot as IMG.
I did a google search on rebranding to unbrick, and found a guide on the 9. So I assume its similar. It first tests me to boot into twrp. I can't. Twrp never got installed. The next step is to get the offical firmware and put it on the SD card. I can't find it. I am in Canada, and can't find any firmware for canada, nevermind anything north american. It is however possible I have found the wrong guide, as I don't really know what I am doing. As a complete noob, links to guides would be nice when possible and available when making recommendations.
The guide is the same for Mate 9/pro and P10/plus
Original: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
Explained as easy as posible:
Unlock bootloader (check again that boot loader is unlocked)
Download Update ZIP. I suggest rebrand to VTR-L29 C432 !
A. Get ROM update link through hwmt.ru. Click "filelist.xml". ---> http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database/?firmware_model=VTR-L29&firmware_page=0
B. Observe "update.zip" size, choose more than 1GB file size FULL OTA . Example VTR-L29C432B164 filelist Link, all three update files and path are in the filelist.xml content.
update.zip: Change URL last "filelist.xml" to "update.zip" download file.
update_data_public.zip: Change URL last "filelist.xml" to "public/update_data_full_public.zip" download file, and rename it to "update_data_public.zip"
update_all_hw.zip: Change URL last "filelist.xml" to "hw/spcseas/update_full_hw_spcseas.zip" download file, and rename it to "update_all_hw.zip" Where spcseas is the model of the file you are downoloading.
Update Package (Download these at original post)
Base: HWOTA_2017050101_Base.zip
OS: Windows -> HWOTA_2017050101_Windows.zip
Model: P10 -> HWOTA_2017050201_VTR.zip [Thanks to @crucky verify]
Put HWOTA on pc desktop and on your external SD card (if you have one, otherwise update process will took a couple of minutes more)
Those 3 downloaded files goes on UPDATE dir, inside HWOTA
Run batch file "update.bat" for same model update or rebrand with/without sdcard.
Select rebrand chose what model is desired (Must be the same as the update package)
Always check the process continues (Sometimes it stucks on twrp or need reconnect to PC)
Once finished Factory default reset will start
Do the process twice! select "Same model update" on the second time.
After update successfully, device might be locked again.

okay, i know you are trying to be helpful, but I just can't follow it...
You said "Download Update ZIP. I suggest rebrand to VTR-L29 C432 !" Which one of them? Is the B just a build number, and I should get the latest? please remember, you are talking to a noob.
You talk about 3 files, update.zip, update_data_public.zip and update_all_hw.zip Do I need them all? If so the last one, where I change filelist.xml to all /cn/update_full_all_cn.zip doesn't work. See the following link http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/.../v92067/f2/full/all/cn/update_full_all_cn.zip
Also, rename the file, "Where spcseas is the model of the file you are downoloading" Huh? I know I have to replace the word spcseas with something, but with that?
Now it says to run update.bat Whats the point? I have not been directed to plug the phone into the computer, and even if I did, the computer won't recognize it because I can't get it into any mode... Where do I put these files? They all go in the same directory? I just can't follow this guide as much as I try..
THERE IS GOOD NEWS HOWEVER!
I have been able to get it into TWRP! This means I can get into fastboot, which means I can re-flash the correct boot.img, IF I can get my hands on it (and assuming that's the actual issue It likely is. It was working until I flashed this other boot.img file.). So if I can get direction on how to get it, I should be okay. Double triple and quadruple bonus points for just providing me a direct link to the boot.img file to use without having to play around trying to follow guides I can't seem to understand.
UPDATE!!
Now although I can get into TWRP, its hit and miss, but I can get there eventually, it will no longer boot into fastboot/recovery. When I click reboot, and choose bootloader in TWRP, it just freezes..
This is getting frustrating. Apparently getting into the bootloader is hit and miss, but i can do it.
Search for Huawei update extractor in order to get BOOT.IMG from update.app (inside update zip) I could upload one myself, but I'm not at home right now.
TWRP doesn't support reboot atm. You must power off completly. To boot to recovery press power on and vol + until huawei logo appears, then relase power. It should boot to recovery TWRP in this case.
For boot bootloader you press vol - when you are connecting usb cable to PC.

Thats good to know. I was getting TWRP more often when I did it from off. What was happening was I would holds power and volume up, release power when the logo appeared, and MOST of the time I would boot into TWRP. Sometimes it would just reboot, I would continue to hold up, and it would either reboot, or boot into TWRP. Occasionally I would get the recovery that came with the phone ?!?!
In any event, I managed to get into TWRP, boot into recovery, extract the boot.img, flash it... AND IT WORKED! Phone booted!
So after all this, I backed up EVERYTHING I could using TWRP. The Boot partition, System partition, EVERYTHING! It kept failing on the Data partition, but from my research that wasn't that important anyway. I then installed SuperRoot_noverity_nocrypt.zip, rebooted, installed phh's SuperUser, installed Root Checker, and finally, I have root!!
Thank you so much for the help. About to go "thank clicking" for all the help you provided.
P9 EVA-L09. I am trying to get original firmware.
The phone was rooted. I relock the bootloader using adb. After that phone has stuck in Huawei eRecovery and can't download firmware.
I use the dload method to perform upgrade. I have downloaded few months ago two zip files.
First copy only the UPDATE.APP (~2GB) file to dload folder on sdcard. Then phone start working. After that from the other zip replace, put the all files
in dload folder. Upgrading was successful, but few apps are missing - camera, contacts and etc -> example ?
Trying this image says: installing updates fails after 10-15%.
Can you suggest me how to fix it or may another image to use?
Thanks in advance !

Did you restore stock ROM (by eg HWOTA) before relocking - because (re)locking invokes Factory reset. There was also another report of similar brick bexause of relocking with rooted or custom ROM.
No I am not. It was stock rom which I rooted.
I am trying several update.app but when processi is complete always something wrong. No all apps installed or keyboard missing and etc.
Can you suggest me what and how to try to install?
I found this link with images.
I am downloading both B136. First I have to copy UPDATE.APP to dload folder on sdcard from update.zip. Then delete update.app from dload
and extract all from B360_update_data_full_hw_eu.zip to dload folder and again perform upgrade (turn off the phone, then holding vol up + vol down + power key
until logo display)
Is that correct?
