Hi guys,
my P10 (stock rom, rooted and TWRP installed) says I can install a new system update: VTR-L09C02B151
So it downloads the update, then reboot, but TWRP shows up and so no update is done.
How can I install this update?
Thank you
Would probably need to be on stock recovery
Hi,
I have the same problem, do you have the stock recovery
EDIT:
i don't tested that but he can solve this problem
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/dev-introducing-redlotus-source-huawei-t3601493

It's easy:
===============================
Step 1 - Back to Stock recovery:
Download this recovery - https://mega.nz/#!ucAnQD5D!VZETUq38R_drskwFgOXz_aK9wIsoIlbjUS5KHrULcTY
Connect your phone to PC and run these commands
adb devices (check your phone is connected)
adb reboot bootloader (reboot in fastboot mode)
fastboot devices (check your phone is in fastboot mode)
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img (flash to stock recovery)
fastboot reboot (reboot the phone)
==================================
Step 2 - Download System Update and install it
Go to Settings -> System Update -> Check for Update
==================================
Step 3 - Flash TWRP again
Download TWRP 3.1.1-2 - https://mega.nz/#!8JwhzBzD!jiuod03amEPlWpo1LD7GWiwP62Z9I97F_TEarmXRrFU
Download SuperSU 2.82 for EMUI5 - https://mega.nz/#!WAYhHRwC!KAaTqWDID9-0e4s4RuKmUN_AKWBPjDJ0ynTXi7sYAv4
Put the 2.6.SuperSU2.82-EMUI5-SelEnforcing.zip in your SD card
Connect your phone to PC and run these commands
adb devices (check your phone is connected)
adb reboot bootloader (reboot in fastboot mode)
fastboot devices (check your phone is in fastboot mode)
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (flash to TWRP)
fastboot boot recovery.img (reboot into recovery)
Go to "Install" menu and choose storage "Micro SD card" and install 2.6.SuperSU2.82-EMUI5-SelEnforcing.zip
Go to "Reboot" menu and press System for normal reboot.
Tested and works on my WAS-LX1C432.
Maybe this guide can be no more valid..
On my P10, updating from B179 to B180 (due to system notification) and TWRP/root installed, update process fails always.
So I extracted recovery.img from B179 Full-OTA update, flashed over TWRP and started system upgrade process, who completed successfully to B180.
However now I get FRP Unlock, (as before update) but PHONE Locked.
So system upgrade has overwrited the unlocked bootloader with a locked one.
Now, to reflash TWRP and apply root, I've to "fastboot oem unlock *Here Huawei Code*" for the second time, loosing all my apps, datas and settings!!
And each time a new update is available is the same way.. you have to go back to stock, and a new unlock will loose all your data....
Really annoying!
Step 2 - Download System Update and install it
Go to Settings -> System Update -> Check for Update
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So once I got to this part, it downloaded the update and then the phone rebooted into the stock eRecovery, but whenever it would try and install the update, it would say "Getting package info failed." Any ideas?
Hey I know I'm bumping here, but I'm seriously still at a loss with this. Stock recovery flashes fine, but every single time I try to install the new update, it comes up with ""Getting package info failed." If anyone has experienced this, it'd be great to get it resolved.

I bought a nexus 6 on google play and I am on verizon. It is currently running 5.0 LNX07M.
Could some nice fellow please tell if if this is correct?
1. download wugfresh
2. download drivers
3. tick usb debug, oem unlock
4. unlock bootloader
5. flash no force encrypt
6. root
7. Trwp
8. Get Chroma/ or any other 5.1.1 rom and flash with gapps?
I'm espeically concerned if it is ok to unlock and root a 5.0 nexus 6 and then use twrp to flash a 5.1.1 rom. Should I first update the phone to 5.1 or something?
1. download and install adb/fastboot
2. boot into the bootloader and plug in via USB to your computer. depending on what your computer is running, it could download and install the driver by itself or you would have to.
3. fastboot OEM unlock unlocks the bootloader.
4. reboot and back into your bootloader.
5. flash twrp recovery
6. flash your custom kernel and SuperSU for root via twrp recovery.
7. only if you want to decrypt, format your storage. if not, just reboot.

if updating the official way, go to 5.1 then 5.1.1. but if updating via custom ROM, it doesnt matter, you can flash 5.1.1 over 5.0
IMHO,
1) download Android SDK or minimal fastboot and ADB or 15 second ADB and fastboot installer
2) connect to PC and reboot to bootloader
3) from command prompt:
fastboot devices
(Serial number shows up)
4) From command:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot reboot
5) Download the latest TWRP recovery for shamu
6) Boot back to bootloader and from command (having placed the TWRP image somewhere where fastboot can find it i.e. in platform tools in SDK) also rename it to twrp.img
Issue the command:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
(Be careful to not have it list the file ext. twice. Windows names the file ext. by default. Example: twrp.img.img
After recovery flashes, from bootloader, use the volume keys to select recovery mode and press power. Your device will boot to TWRP.
Make a backup!
Next, download SuperSU zip and flash with TWRP.
Congratulations, you are now stock rooted and you can choose any ROM you like and flash with TWRP. Follow the instructions carefully from the ROM OP and profit.
It may look complicated but trust me, it's not. The longest process will be after you unlock the bootloader. Your device will wipe completely so backup anything you'd rather not lose forever.
Remember, a 32gb Nexus will take 10 to 15 minutes to wipe and reboot. A 64gb will take 20 minutes or more.
The benefit of doing it this way is you know exactly what is happening to your device, unlike a toolkit. Also, you just learned something! Plus, if you get stuck somewhere and end up soft bricked, you'll understand what and how when someone here tells you how to fix it.
Thank you guys for your responses ! I think my laziness is going to win me out this round so im going to use the toolkit. But next time, I will do the correct way!
i have a symphony roar a50 (Bangladesh). it was running everything stock and updated with twrp 2.8.7.0 without root. bootloader was unlocked.
i was trying to root the device with the AIO from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro.../android-one-toolkit-unlocks-relocks-t3294448
the phone suddenly rebooted in the middle of the process and was stuck in a bootloop. i tried to factory reset it but it still didn't work. was still on boot loop.
then i tried to flash the appropriate stock firmware but that didn't help it wont boot. stuck on the boot logo for 1.5 hrs. then tried CM13 nightlies and the cyanpop roms. still nothing.
i am currently in a state of shock as this is a fairly a new phone and i am to travel to Chittagong in ~11 hours.
please help
don't you take a backup ?
and don't you wipe every thing before flashing the cm13 ?

I too Had the same Problem once as I Tried Rooting My Android One through the same method as u did, So for fixing it I prefer that U FLASH The Stock MM ROM for Ur Device through STOCK Recovery ( Remember to Wipe Cache and Data b4 Flashing ) AND then ur Device mst be Fixed ( This method worked for me ) And Dude if u want to root Ur Device Follow This Method : -
1) FLASH TWRP RECOVERY
2) Reboot into Recovery and FLASH Thunderzap 5.1 Kernel through Recovery
3) Then FLASH SUPERSU ZIP from Recovery
4) Reboot And Done ! Ur Device is Rooted ! ?

Thanks I'll try this asap currently on a train..
Okay.. I've shipped it to the customer care. They said I'll have to wait 3 days for it to get back. I'll report back then.
Thank you everyone for your input.
Closed as this has run its course.
Warning don't try this if you are new to rooting.. wait for more confirmation
I've successfully rooted my phone using these steps:
Download the TWRP recovery image from http://forum.xda-developers.com/vivo-xl/development/recovery-t3311601 credit @jemmini
Download SuperSU from http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu-beta
Enable Developer Options
Enable OEM unlock
Enable USB Debugging
Reboot phone bootloader (adb reboot bootloader or vol up + power)
fastboot oem unlock
vol up to confirm unlock
your phone will ask you to reboot but vol up and vol down doesn't do anything. (other were having issue with boot looping here because of this..)
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp-recovery.img (the file downloaded in step 1)
fastboot reboot
while the phone is rebooting, press and hold vol up (this will launch TWRP recovery)
Optional: do not enable write access (for backup purpose)
select wipe, format data, type in yes (this fixes the boot looping issue -- credit @acotto)
now make a backup of your phone
Copy supersu.zip to your phone
install supersu.zip
To make TWRP recovery permanent: rename or delete /system/recovery-from-boot.p
reboot
your phone will take awhile to boot up since it has to rebuild all of your applications for the first time.
Edit:
I haven't figured out how to make TWRP permanent yet. Blu is restoring the stock recovery on reboot.
Thanks for the write up, looks really promising.
For those who need fastboot, I used this All in One to get it set up on my PC. I am running Windows 10 and it installed and worked just fine.
Followed the instructions above and achieved root. Thanks to OP for the great instructions.

Don't unlock bootloader, it's not needed.
For now, use recovery restore to original ROM, clear data/cache in recovery, then you should be able to boot.

was able to flash the twrp by renaming to recovery.img. but after fastboot reboot, even holding volume up it just reboots like normal?
what version of android should I have installed for this tutorial to work?
I unlocked my bootloader, installed twrp and several roms to try them out, then decided to go back to stock. Currently have OOS 3.5.4 installed with stock recovery (that came with the toolkit). However, whenever I try to lock the booltloader again, the phone won't boot up. It will bootloop, or just stay off with the led glowing white. I tried to sideload the stock ROM from OnePlus, but it fails after about 45% completion. I tried both 3.5.3 and 3.5.4 and both fail after about 45%. The only way to get the phone to boot again is by unlocking the bootloader again, then it boots just fine. Tried unlocking with the toolkit as well as fastboot oem lock. Both give me the prompt on the phone, then wipe the phone and go into the bootloop.
Any suggestions on how to re-lock the bootloader? I want to be able to get the OTA update, which I think will fail with an unlocked bootloader. Note, I have also tried loading the Nougat update from settings - system update - local upgade (both full and update) and they also fail to load shortly after booting to recovery.
Thanks,
TR
Instead of using the toolkit, try just doing it manually.
fastboot oem lock IS the correct way to lock the bootloader.
If you're running into all those issues, try to reflash the stock rom from the official site. OR try this
NOTE: This WILL wipe everything on your phone so make a backup first!
First Unlock booloader1. On your phone go into Developer screen (Settings --> Developer Options)
If you don't have this go back to Settings --> About Device. Tap "Build number" 7-10 times to unlok developer options
2. In Developer Options turn on "USB Debugging" and "OEM Unlock"
3. Open ADB in command prompt and go to the directory where ADB is.
Type adb reboot bootloader
4. Once your device is in fastboot mode, type in fastboot devices to make sure your device is listed
5. Type in fastboot oem unlock to unlock your device bootloader
You can check to make sure it was properly unlocked by typing in fastboot oem device-info.
6. Reboot into your system
Files we need7. Download the following files:
TWRP - https://build.nethunter.com/test-builds/twrp/oneplus/twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3t.img
No-verity-opt-encrypt - https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip
Magisk - http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk
Phh-Superuser - https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3988488&d=1483407725
Latest Stable Nougat Rom - http://otafsc.h2os.com/patch/amazon...s3TOxygen_28_OTA_035_all_1612310259_2dc0c.zip
8. Copy all the files to your phone (keep the original on your pc just in case)
9. Load back up to fastboot mode
In ADB type adb reboot bootloader
10. Flash twrp img we downloaded above by typing
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3t.img
11. After this reboot into the system
Install all of our downloaded files through TWRP12. Now boot into recovery by issuing the following ADB command
adb reboot recovery (you should go into TWRP)
13. Once you're in twrp flash the "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip" file OR you can format the data partition to f2fs to prevent the dm-verity error.
14. Now install the stock stable nougat rom we downloaded above
15. Do a factory system wipe / cache & dalvik
16. Install magisk through TWRP
17. Wipe cache/dalvik
18. Install phh SuperUser
19. Now reboot into the system normally.
NOTE: This *COULD* take a while since you did a clean install of nougat so just be patient and you should be good to go after this.
Thanks for the reply.
I did do fastboot oem lock, and it results in an unbootable system. fastboot oem unlock makes it bootable again. Not sure why. Also, whenever I do adb sideload <any_rom> it fails after about 45%. Not sure what's happening. Your instructions would get me to Nougat with TWRP and an unlocked bootloader, which may be what I end up doing, but I was trying to get back to fully stock, and locked again, so that OTA's will work properly. If nothing else works, I will go the route you suggest above.
Thanks again!
I just figured I'd try to get you to a working system/phone. After you get all that working you can probably lock your bootloader back to default. Now, I'm not 100% sure, but I believe that if you have a custom recovery you will need to restore that to stock as well before setting the bootloader back to locked.

I also have the same problem, after the bootloader lock the phone does not start.
I tried with all the possible procedures, also even the rom flash in local and sideload it does not work, It comes to 45% and then fails.
we will highlight the problem, so everyone will know and maybe there is a solution

But of course, you can't relock phone with a non standard recovery. Replace TWRP with the ROMs real recovery and relock will work again.
That's what I figured. Thanks for the confirmation.
Use the unbrick tutorial to go back to stock
This is what i did

I'm sorry, even with the stock recovery but does not work, it was the first thing I did
You can a unbick tutorial. It worked for my OnePlus 3T. Just search up How to unbrick (whatever OnePlus device you have) on Google. Then follow all the instructions carefully. If you need help with it I could try to do a remote session with you. Edit: It will erase all data and you will boot with oos 3.5.3 ( I also had the same issue as you. But I couldn't install any zip with stock recovery or adb side load.

Only if you have modified the phone in some way or another (like rooting and installing twrp) before trying to re-lock.
If you keep it stock, you should be able to re-lock. Or else, just use the Qualcomm restore method to re-lock.
tried this
OK what i did was when the phone was starting and vibrating I push the power bottom and volume down bottom at the same time ,then i connected the phone to the PC,from the panel in the phone there are 3 categories to erase everything on the phone I did it all(1,2,3) and then I put the phone in ADB mode from the control panel in the phone,After that I flash via fastboot the original .zip from one plus for the version 4.0.3 (1.4 GB) ,when it finished I restarted and the phone started normal again,I hope this help someone alse,I was so desesperated:silly:.
I think the problem in re-locking it is the modified boot image. Locked bootloaders don't support those.
re-locking bootloader will getback the warranty ???

Once I have root, is there a command to re-lock and later eventually unlock the bootloader again?
I remember this was possible with google nexus devices, there was a shell command (require root) that was able to change bootloader status

Now click Vendor so its checked and system should be unchecked, back out.
6- Copy Magisk 20.1 to the External sd card. In TWRP click install, select storage and choose micro sd card, click on magisk and slide right to confirm. (you must have vendor checked in mount or it wont flash properly). when done, click all way back click reboot to download.
7- now flash stcok recovery tar file via odin and reboot your device to system
8-after your device start run Magisk and update it by install options

Try again flash 4 file frimware and let device start to system after that reboot to download mod and flash vbmeta.tar and let your device start to system
After that reboot to stock recovery and wipdata and cach and reboot to download mod and now flash twrp
The wrong is with your bootloader if you cant fix it try to search your problem in google
You are not only one have this problem
I did every thing from scratch. Even lock and unlock the bootloader.
I am tring to make sence. Vbmeta is "verified boot". So the idea is trick the phone with our own bootloader so that we can flash twrp.
Since i cant flash twrp, vbmeta should be updated.
Am i right?

Unlock bootloader, factory reset, unsure oem is unlocked and grayed out in settings >developer options.
Then flash vbmeta, manual reboot to download mode, flash twrp, boot to twrp, factory reset in twrp , flash magisk zip then factory reset again, now boot system.
The vbmeta you flash is empty and allows flashing third party zips.
Hiii, i did almost everthing, but when i boot in recovery and go to mount, system partition read-only is checked. already tried 4 for times reboot to recovery but still checked.
Yes, i slide right to allow to modify. Any suggestion ?

Go ahead with the steps. Ignore mount system.
Let's see what happens
Worst scenario, you soft brick the phone or bootloop which can be fixed by flashing stock rom again.
Make sure you have stock rom and you backup your data
Any way to pass SatefyNet?
