Already tried : fastboot oem relock xxxxx
Returns : command not allowed
I am on stock recovery and the device is bricked right now.
Help needed!Many thanks!
did you try to install stock rom with dload folder method
else you can use DC Phoenix to fix your phone

Dload doesnt work.How can dc phoenex be used? Can you provide any links to a good guide?
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/DC-Phoenix-flash-repair-tutorial
you must boot into bootloader then flash the stock rom (UPDATE.APP) with the phoenix software (paid service ~15€) then you must re-install the stock rom again with dload methode to get a clean system on your phone

Try booting into eRecovery (Power+Volume Up+USB plugged in) to restore the system which [will] wipe all data (excluding /sdcard)
Hi, I'm in a bad situation. My honor 9 lite (Europe) has no OS, frp lock. But it does have TWRP installed.
My question would be, since I can't flash an OS (given the frp lock) via fastboot, would it work via TWRP? Or should I just give up and buy a new phone?
Thanks a lot.
Best
Since you have TWRP, try using HURUpdater tool. It is compatible with H9L.

Hi,
thanks a lot for the tip. Unfortunately, I keep getting an error when flashing following the instructions.
I discovered that nonetheless I can flash roms with TWRP. There is one particular rom, this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/development/rom-t3753555 that works particularly.
However, my device with that rom keeps giving me an error "bluetooth keeps stopping". Any way to solve that?
I really don't know a solution.
Can't you enable OEM unlock in settings/developer options? so that to make frp unlocked?
Yes.
After that, I was able to finally flash stock rom
However, there's a new issue: wifi doesn't work. It actually seems like whatever rom I flash, wifi won't work the slider turns off as soon as I turn it on
Did you wipe data/factory reset through eRecovery after flashing? That is important in most cases!

No I did not. I think I used TWRP to do that. Will do with eRecovery next time and update you
I am still without WiFi.
I think the problem lies in the fact that my stock ROM comes from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/how-to/guide-unbrick-device-recover-bootloop-t3772563
I had oreo 8.1 before brick, and the rim above that I flashed is 8.0 and Indian version (not european). That maybe could explain the issue.
Problem is, I would need a system.img stock ROM to file and I can't seems to find that. In Huawei firmware finder, I only get update.zip kind of files and TRWP returns error when flashing that or when I use the HuRUpdater tool.
Also, I've noticed it's not just the WiFi, but also security options and themes for some reason
you need a working frp image which in twrp can flashed via dd... so the frp lock is gone...
In telegram group you can find image.

The system.app file you search for is in the update.zip file you get and you cannot flash update.zip directly from twrp, you need HuRupdater for that and the dload method doesn't work for almost anyone including me.
And you need correct the firmware for your motherboard if you want your phone to work properly.
First tick oem unlocking in developer options. Then unlock fastboot and flash TWRP.
Since you are able to boot up check your varient, the complete one not just the LLD but the rest too. Search for it in Huawei firmware finder and download the latest firmware for your model. You'll get 3 links and you'll need all three.
Download HuRupdater 0.3 zip and then rename the 3 files you got as told in the HuRu instructions. get twrp image and rename it to recovery.img and put all files in the same folder.If you want to completely revert to stock you don't have to have recovery.img but keep it just in case.
Then flash HuRupdater using twrp. You should be up and running if you did everything right.
You can then remove the recovery.img and then flash again using HuRupdater and relock the fastboot too later if you wanna play things safe using fastboot relock bootloader 'your code' .
please help me, honor 9 lite last night my flash rom forgot the data format so now can not boot into the operating system, locked FRP, can not enter the TWRP.
Hello, I know it's been a long time. I put the issue aside for a few months as I had another phone to use in the meanwhile just wanted to let you know i Just did the procedure you described and it worked perfectly! The phone is back to life :laugh:
Hi All, I need a big help. :crying:
I've a bricked my Honor 9 Lite (LLD-L21)
Yesterday i did a restore rom from twrp backup and successfully to restore it. After it i did a format factory in TWRP, done and reboot to reboot system, I thought this would be fine, but what happened was my phone just stuck at Huawei eRecovery with EMUI logo and three option (Download latest and recovery, Reboot and Shutdown).
And now i can't access to TWRP mode. just stock recovery mode with option "Reboot system, Wipe data/factory, Wipe cache) but while i try to Wipe data/factory i got it error after 40% and stopped self.
In my situation, i tried to :
**Using Huawei eRecovery : i only get a message "Getting Package info failed",
**Trying to update with dload folder (UPDATE.APP) vol + - and power button : Stuck at 5% and then "Software install failed",
**Flashing .IMG file trought fastboot mode "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)"
**Unlock bootloader again that show: "Necessary to unlock FRP! Navigate to Developer option, and enable OEM unlock"
This my Honor 9 Lite in current state :
Firmware: LLD-L21 8.0.0.122(C636)
Device name: LLD-L21
Oeminfo: hw/spcseas
Bootloader state: RELOCKED (unlocked)
FRP state: LOCKED
*Stuck at Huawei eRecovery
*Bootloader mode with Locked state
*Just have Stock Recovery (Reboot system, Wipe data/factory, Wipe cache) not TWRP.
Is there anywhere an Option to repair it?
Thanks in advance. :highfive:

Did your backup had the stock recovery in it?
If it didn't then you can access the TWRP by selecting factory reset from the erecovery, it'll just boot to TWRP.
But if you did restore the stock recovery, well you might be in a tight corner.
Whats causing the bootloop is the factory reset you did in TWRP. EMUI have files in the data partition, who knows what, that are necessary to use the phone. But TWRP factory resets like other phones so that means the necessary files are gone now. I've personally experienced this but luckily had an unlocked bootloader.
Try pressing factory reset from e recovery. If you didn't restore stock recovery, you'll boot to TWRP.
And why did you relock the bootloader without checking if the phone boots or not? And don't ever factory reset from TWRP.

Thank you sir, I just want to original again.
after the first restore the phone runs normally, but I don't turn on the OEM unlock again, then I reboot into the bootloader (still unlock) I tried to relock the bootloader. after rebooting instead bootloop and can't go to TWRP, TWRP is gone. return to stock recovery.
Are there EDL methods like xia*mi ? there can force flash with this method without unlocking BL.

Im not sure but try this:https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/how-to/guide-unlock-frp-phone-bootlooping-t3808650
If it works you'll probably have an unlocked device and you can flash stock rom with HuRupdater later on

Be aware that depending on the ROM you have flashed to your H9L, DC Unlocker/ Phoenix and HCU may not work.
None of them support the later firmwares and fail trying to read the necessary data from device.
You may be OK with 122 as, AFAIK it is pre July/August 2018.
Also are you using proper DLoad firmware ?
Normal OTAs will not work with DLoad, instead search here for correct ROm and try it :-

Ok, as a start you can always email Huawei support and ask for your FRP key.
At least then we will be able to flash some custom recovery to rescue the phone.

well, that time i can't flash anything firmware version without twrp coz im not have twrp and in fastboot can't to do anything .
so that method is flashing a slock file for unlock the BL for with a moment, a slock file can be obtained from the phone at fastboot mode. Then flash twrp and here i can flash any firmw with different version also diffrent country code and phone will work normally again but if flash diferen firm country, maybe phone got loss the imei id.
You can ask @hackintosh5 for detailed tutorial.

I think he lost the code. Either that or a security patch changed it (yes that does happen!)
Edit: just reread the OP, his FRP is locked! That means he can't use the code.

my variant is LLD-L21C185 and i did the most stupid thing I flashed a pie firmware which was for LLD-L21C636 and now i am stuck with bricked phone.
bootloader : unlocked
frp: unlocked
Fastboot mode is accessible
I tried to flash twrp with command fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img result is sucessful but i can not load it.
it loads with stock recovery no matter what.
normal start is loading erecovery
i tried to download oreo rom (lld-l21c185b138) from erecovery but update fails at 5% every time.
i also tried the dload method with sd card but did not succeed .
can anybody tell me a way to get back to oreo with fastboot commands.
try fastboot reboot recovery, or fastboot boot twrp.img
Try to flash manually this files from oreo firmware: system. img, ramdisk. img and kernel. img via fastboot

First off starting another thread about the same issue is never a good idea and is not in keeping with forum etiquette . https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/help/how-to-repair-ramdisk-partition-t3923406
IMHO you will not repair this phone without testpoint flashing using IDT and board software.
Google it, not too hard but not for the feint hearted either, requires opening the phone to 'earth' the testpoint for flashing.

More than likely they just changed the motherboard, same case but different guts, so to speak.
Cheapest and fastest way out for them.
Just bought MI A2 from official dealer and the phone is stuck on Android one version 8.1.0 and not getting PIE via OTA.
Is there a safe method to manually install the latest stock PIE version of android one ?
Is it possible the update was removed from the servers ?

I have the MI FLASH TOOL installed but it would not succeed to install the drivers.
I assume nothing will work if windows does not have correct drivers installed.
Can I install the fastboot driver manually ? which driver ?
Btw, the phone is detected in fastboot mode by the FASTBOOT/ADB command line interface. Is that helpfull to me ?

Just bought MI A2 from official dealer and the phone is stuck on Android one version 8.1.0 and not getting PIE via OTA.
Is there a safe method to manually install the latest stock PIE version of android one ?
Is it possible the update was removed from the servers ?

Afaik...to flash latest pie base firmware, first you need to unlock your phone's bootloader and then only you can flash available fastboot firmware (pie based) using MiFlash tool.
Try to OTA update using WiFi(Keep the phone to airplane mode and just turn on the WiFi and then try to update). Also before updating the phone just turn on the oem unlock switch under developer option on safer side so you can unlock your bootloader later if anything goes wrong while updating your device since many people have reported that they've bricked their device during updating their device..
Updaing to PIE was successfull.
Used this guide to unlock bootloader: https://www.androidexplained.com/mi-a2-unlock-bootloader/
Then used the MI FLASH tool to apply the stock rom. First atemp failed with "write error" after 55 seconds, but I tried a second time and this time the process completed.

I hope you flash both this fastboot codes when unlocked your bootloader.
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
Unlock_Critical is require to flash custom roms and if you would want to revert back to stock from custom rom.

Yes, did both commands. However, after flashing PIE via the flash tool, the bootloader became locked again.

You must have selected "flash all and lock" under MiFlash tool so it lock the bootloader as well but now you know how to unlock it so do it whenever you feel like unlocking your bootloader..
