use this tool to extract all files and then flash in fastboot mode
hi guys,
yesterday i installed the oreo beta on my VTR-L29 but then i brickedd it *cry*. unfortunateley the unbrick methods found here in the forum don't work because the oreo update made some changes in the system file structure...
has anyone an idea what to do?
maybe someone can provide me a recovery image for twrp? (one for oreo, otherwise it wont work) so i can give this a try...
after over 10 hours of fiddeling around a found a really easy solution:
most of you know HWOTA helps with this, but the "normal" version wont work after flashing oreo. but this version is flashed via twrp and is still working!
but you will need a oreo compatible twrp, which you can find here
i know the links are to mate 9 software, but since the p10 and mate 9 are nearly identical, it works on the p10 as well
can you post the step by step guide?
i am on oreo 8.0.0.046 and want to flash another version, or downgrade to nougat because few things don't work on this version
i dont know if downgrading works, i just reflashed the latest oreo.
accordingly to the first link it should work, just flash the TWRP from the second link and then follow the instructions from the first link.

i did sucsses to install twrp but on the second step, when i press on install on twrp, the phone restart to erocovey and failed to find the files. what am i doing wrong?
i think that i am stuck with that version forever....
if you reboot to erecovery, you have not successfully installed twrp. you have to install it with "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk <path to twrp>"

EDIT : the process is sucsses, but its the same version.... 8.0.0.046
Bricked, no TWRP access, any ideas?
Hi.
I know this about a P10, I have a P10 Plus (VKY-L29C605), but the process should be similar, I think.
I bricked my phone after succesfully upgrading from B174 to B321 using HWOTA. After which I decided, since I was at it, to flash the Hyperplus Kernel. This led to a bootloop. To fix it I decided to just go ahead and HWOTA B321 all over again and get over it, and would have probably gone just fine, except I decided to rebrand (C605 > C432) while I was doing that, silly (no, stupid) mistake. This led to the brick I am currently expriencing, I have no recovery access, erecovery or TWRP.
So now I am left trying to unbrick the phone. I extracted the UPDATE.APP for both update_all_hw.zip and update.zip using the Huawei Extractor Tool with no difficulty, except unbricking methods ask for boot.img, which I could not find, so I went along without it and flashed: cust.img, recovery_ramdisk.img (using fastboot recovery_ramdisk command for Oreo), and system.img. All of the commands completed succesfully, but no shebang, still bricked and no recovery access. I figure this has to do with the rebrand as the result after executing the command "fastboot getvar vendorcountry" shows the rebrand pulled through (hw/eu 432).
I am currently downloading HWOTA8.zip (3GB worth of download) to see if I can do something it. I am also downloading the L29C432B360 OTA-FULL, since I believe I am not getting any progress becuase I used the updates for L29C605B321.
The kind people at funkyhuawei told me they could fix it with their tool, but I don't have the money for that right now.
I will post updates, but any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Many of us have posted over this in the last couple of days. Seems like Funky Huawei unbrick tool was the mehtod to get it work for me. You could try that!
or use dc-phoenix for me it worked (= in the moment i try to capture the usb ports kommunikation so i have the tool with the aktual firmware longer for 3 days :silly:
would first give dc a try 20 bucks for 3 days is ok i think (=

Must download some software for your phone, unzip update.zip, decompile UPDATE.APP to .iso files, (like recovery.iso, system, iso, vendor iso, boot iso) use fastboot and 10 minuts job, I brik my device over 10 thimes, and repair it.
So I was able to get the C432B360 firmware and I flashed it, but no I can't enter recovery mode because the battery is low (red lightning bolt/red led flash). Anybody know how to charge or force recovery mode boot from fastboot?
If anyone needs, can use my DC-Phoenix account, I don`t need it anymore.

Greeting,
Can you explain the procedure of how to do it?
Thank you
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 everyone, I really need some help. Took my phone to I.T shop to have it unlocked and EU rom stable put on. I got my phone back with TWRP on it saying no rom. I know nothing about this kind of thing and now I am stuck. Is there someone who can fix this remotely for me?? Thanks in advance
In twrp Click install and Check in the download folder in case it's not in the root folder, if there is no ROM there you could fix it yourself by flashing the last fastboot ROM from a bat file or cmd line
i think it was 12.5.5 or something like that and then you can update to EU 12.5.12 stable via twrp
AND NEVER USE THAT SHOP AGAIN LOL

Thanks for your reply. Could this be done remotely. I really have no idea how to do any of this stuff which is why i first went to a shop. Im happy to pay for a good outcome
Anyone who flashes ROMs could do it in a few minutes via team viewer or something.... But it maybe beneficial to learn for yourself
It's really simple, you've already done the hardest part if you've unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp
Just put the phone in fastboot mode and then plug into PC and click on the bat file
Download: MIUI 12 stable update rolling out to several Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO devices
MIUI 12 stable builds have begun rolling out to several Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices. Head on over for Recovery ROM and Fastboot ROM download links!
www.xda-developers.com
Select your phone and download the MIUI stock ROM. (Do NOT extract it.)
Boot into Twrp and wipe and factory reset.
Move the miui stock rom to the phone.
Select flash and select the zip file.
Swipe to flash
Then download and flash(move to phone, flash) the 'ARM64 Android 11' Gapps(Google apps) https://opengapps.org/
Then reboot.
All data will be lost. If you want to keep your photos and videos, before doing everything, go to twrp , connect the phone to a pc, and move the 'Dcim' folder to the computer side.
If you have a working TWRP, just use it to flash latest EU version, format data, reboot system. Done.
Then if you want to go back to a stock ROM, flash it via fastboot or twrp depending on the ROM format you download.

If he's stuck in twrp how can he download a ROM to flash? I don't think you can transfer files to a phone that doesn't have a ROM to flash via twrp
Fastboot first from a PC cmd maybe the only way to get started
He is asking someone else to do the process he doesn't know anything about these things (and I don't understand why buying a phone to make things like this if not capable). Anyway go on YouTube and check people doing the process, I don't think is difficult watching a guy and copy what he is doing
I am replying to close this thread. He contacted me over telegram. I took a look at his phone and the phone is not being detected in fastboot mode on his pc. Maybe hard bricked or in edl mode. Also his twrp is not accessible. So i suggested him to contact the edl guy and he fixed the phone.
So ask mods to close this thread?

I know it's closed as such but in twrp, I can copy files from pc to phone. He could have done the same. BTW, I'm using the very first twrp that many wouldn't install but my phone is recognised in Windows while in recovery. This might help someone else
Hi everyone!
I think I managed to brick it... Can it be recovered from this?
Model Alcatel 1SE 5030D
Idea was to get it rooted...
I managed to finally unlock the bootloader.
I unpacked the official rom with SPD Tool and then patched the boot.img with magisk in order to flash it with fastboot.
Once this done, phone rebooted and is stuck at the very beginning.
It goes no further than the screen with alcatel logo and powered by android with the message of "lock flag unlocked" at the top left.
Cannot reboot to recovery or fastboot.
Cannot be recognized by windows or linux.
Thank you in advance.
the boot.img is embedded to the rom, sometimes as a payload.bin or an encrypted file (Inside a scatter file) , usually located in /dev/mtd/ or /system/bin , and so on .
To READ the encrypted Boot.Img from the Rom you actually need to read The SCATTER FILE, SPD TOOL, or SP Flashtools are the tools that help you -- LOAD THE ROM and read the scatter file. You could open a whole rom on your own and browse the files inside and you will never find the boot.img , you have to open the rom as a scatter file, as far as i know.
With root you can actually extract the boot.img file if you know the location of it for example:
dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd2 of=/sdcard/boot.img
or
dd if=/dev/block/***** of=/sdcard/boot.img
_____
The problem with these devices is that they dont accept flashing anything into it besides system.img
To allow to flash recovery.img or boot.img , you'll have to input special codes with a special software from the Alcatel Company (we don't have those, cuz they're not leaked)
What you did was trigger a lock, a block to the phone by trying to bypass that security code they placed onto the device.
You took the boot.img out, patched, and then placed back inside/reflashed it as an individual file, with spd tool or adb, if you did with a flashing tool then, this triggered the security of the phone, and maybe other img's got patched and flashed too (or corrupted) such as recovery.img, boot.img, vendor.img , product.img , etc etc, (these are all just regions of the ROM read through the scatter file) ( i guess this locked ur device)
Repairing it :
1) IF YOU can still access into fastboot mode (bootloader) somehow.
** I think just reflashing a new ARM ROM compatible with ur storage partitioning can fix it
(A only or AB )
(try booting the phone and then connecting it to the usb cable , to the pc, and doing
command: fastboot reboot bootloader
or fastboot devices
if you're lucky and its detected , or goes into bootloader you can just do fastboot flash systyem /name/of/rom.img
and this could flash a new rom and revert the boot.img, recovery and everything else to default
thus helping you boot ur phone again.
2) If you can't even access recovery or bootloader (fastboot mode)
** What i think you have to do to repair it is the following, REFLASH the full rom again onto the phone with sp-flash tool
GET the UNPATCHED Boot.img (i hope you made a backup of it), get the whole intact rom, (or any other compatible working rom) the scatter file intact and reflash the WHOLE full rom back again with SP FLASH TOOL
(forget about Placing the PATCHED boot.img in the scatter file) we wanna use the unpatched files, all virgin.
SP FLASH TOOL gives you an option to reflash A WHOLE ROM, i suggest to try reflashing the stock ROM (considering its good) or Reflash another Android ARM AOSP ROM, you can find plenty here in XDA, i can give you links (make sure to HAVE A GOOD ROM this could also be the reason your phone got corrupted, the boot img and files you were handling were probably already corrupted or flashing them simply broke the security code thats about it) that is why you want a ROM that is known, and good for any phone/tablet, preferrably with the same chip as yours or with enough reviews or comments from others, 90% of the roms we can find in google have viruses or are corrupted, specially considering its ALCATEL no one handles this, AND WE ALWAYS WANT TO MAKE SURE OUR PHONE ACCEPTS recovery.img, boot.img , etc without trigering any security codes, if you extracted your own ROM/stock firmware then its alright, thats fine. but you forgot about the security codes, you triggered those i think. Make sure that scatter file loads into SPFT without error, SPFT checks the PRELOADER and DSP_BL and if they aren't in the scatter directory, it will fail and maybe crash. the regions/files can get corrupted. Everything is in green, everything is setup, then you can click " Flash whole rom " this is what you need i think that way you revert everything to default , Boot.img, recovery.img all of it that got locked (you triggered the security code, i think so, because if it wasn't so , it would just boot loop, since yours boot loops and then WARNS you, it means you triggered some code or corrupted something)
3rd option return that Alcatel Toaster, to the company and pay them to repair it , cuz they have the softwares to do all this in just a few clicks.
The issue is the company, they suck hard, and all phones they make are low quality phones .
