Dear XDA members,
Maybe someone could help me.
I was using the beta Nougat on my 5C (7lite - NEM-L21) and I decided I would like root. I installed Nougat TWRP and went well then I've encountered problem when installing supersu.zip - data problems, so I googled (damn google specialists) so I wiped system and DATA. I left myself without any operating system. So I managed to instal Lineage 13 for P9lite-Honor 5C.
But no, that was not enough, I tried again to install the beta update + patch for NEM-21... And thats it no more Lineage 13 no more nothing. After that I have installed TWRP through ADB and I could not go into it. So again google - I managed somehow to install original B132 firmware (before it I installed recovery taken out of B132) and it go through installation with success.
Unfortunately that's it - phone stays in the HONOR logo and nothing more - ah yes I did clean to factory through Honor original recovery.
Can ANYONE help me solve my problem, or you think it's a lost cause?:good:

Unfortunately should work doesn't apply to my case
I will have to send it to Service in Huawei.
If anyone encounters my problem please use method passed by fellow xda member y4c1ne .
1- Extract the update.zip from this thread, u'll find an Update.app. Open it using huawei update extractor, and then extract BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img, SYSTEM.img to adb folder.
2- Boot your phone into bootloader (shut it down, press volume down - then connect it to your computer)
3- Flash the files extracted from UPDATE.APP using these commands
Code:
-fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
-fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
-fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img (this will take some time so be patient).
Again thanks for help: y4c1ne
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.

ok ty i stopped my search i wait when hisuite think at add the firmware on eRecovery via wifi or via the soft hisuite directly by update ... :/
Hi all
requirement : honor 9 lite with LLD-L31 8.0.0.x(C432), bootloader unlocked.
everyone how flash : you ar developer & tester on your phone ! you carry the responsibility !
i am use pur custom-rom, no xposed framwork ...
can you go with phone in bootloader-mode ?
by me : phone off / usb-wire out of phone / press and hold "vol-down" and put usb-wire in phone. start phone in bootloader : bingo!
you see on bootloader-screen "unlock" & "unlock" in red (by me) the phone is ready to flash
then extract from update.app "recovery_ramdis.img & header" and "system.img & header"
put this 4 files in adb-folder / Windows: open command and cd.. to this folder / on linux open terminal and cd.. to the folder
on my linux-pc i am this files in /home/username/adb. if i start terminal i am automatically in my home-folder and write only "cd adb". this is short-way
fastboot devices (check is phone connected)
if phone connected : fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img (extracted out update.app)
next fastboot flash system.img (extracted from update.app)
if this ended : you have customOS on phone
next fastboot erase userdata (this doing what you reed : erase! userdata)
next press and hold "vol-up" and power, phone vibrate and you see Huawei-boot: release power, you see pre-boot messages: release "vol-up", phone boot in erecovery
in erecovery wipe cache and factory-reset . this mace low-level format user_data 0...100%. now is userdate clear and fresh formated. reboot
phone boot as a new phone ! now config, install apps ...
if your phone boot to bootloader and bootloader is unlocked: you can do this how match you need
i test developer-rom's from other phones (oreo) and have this 4..5x doing and it's working way. stony way, hard way - but is working. My phone run.
i hope this is helpful
i hope you think on this: by now is no twrp with working backup & recovery available and i found by now not working developer-rom for this phone. i search continue.
you can on this way only restore the customOS - nothing else. no userdata.
AND FLASH NEVER OTHER as "recovery and/or system". ALL OTHER can brick your phone
excuse my writing "i am use pur custom-rom". i mean "stock-rom" : original manufacturer rom
Just for Info
This is Tread for "Here is the Update.App LLD-L31 8.0.0.127(432)FULL"

Please make new thread "how to repair bootloop"

@Pyro.ted
that's a good idea. i not use Xposed. you have custom-recovery and -system and can always reflash - no risk !
i hope for "twrp full function". then we have backup from all and can "test - not working - restore" and "no-risk & full-fun"
... don't work i'v try with arm & arm64 sorry

How many people bricked specifically hardbricked their phone after 2018-04-16 updates,while OTA or rebranding using any tool and choose which methods you tried to solve.
we need to show how many people we are,and seek for solution or encourage BOX groups to do something for this matter.
Even huawei may help us if they see we are bunch of people.
Edit: Just comment only if you solved the issue with this tool or any other tool that is not mentioned,here we are seeking help.

The only versions that will brick (so far anyway) are BLA-L29C636B137 and ALP-L29C636B134 from 16/4, neither is a noxloader version.
Bricks occur when you update/downgrade/rebrand FROM those 2 firmwares.

I bricked my Huawei Mate 10 too
Please help.. I also bricked my Huawei Mate 10 ALP-L29C636...
I installed the EMUI 9.0 on my device using the HWOTA8_Mate10 method which was successful. The EMUI 9.0 ROM was from FirmwareFinder: ROM version ALP-L29C636E2R1P8B108-log (9.0.0.108). I didn't have any issues at all but since Huawei Mate 10's EMUI 9.0 is still in Beta, I decided to switch back to the stable EMUI 8.0.
Here's where the problem started... Since I want to downgrade, I went ahead and downloaded the 3 needed files (update.zip, update_all_hw, update_data_public) from FirmwareFinder: ROM version ALP-L29C636B143 (8.0.0.143). I fired up HWOTA8_Mate10 and started the installation process. The first step was to boot to fast boot and then plug the device, after that, the software asked me to unplug the device and press volume+ and power button but the device won't boot to recovery anymore. The device is now stuck at "Your device is booting now..." I tried rebooting the device but it won't work. Tried to go to eRevovery to wipe cache/factory reset but it will go back to "Your device is booting now..." page. I tried reinstalling the recovery.img via fastboot and tried to boot to recovery mode again but it won't work anymore. I believe my device is now soft bricked . I can still boot to fastboot, I even tried fastboot flash system system.img which was successful but the device still won't boot. Please help how to recover my device. I think I went too far and now I don't know how to fix this issue.

did you tried huawei pc app (hisuite)?
your problem maybe is because magisk, try to install in twrp "magisk uninstaller". or try to install via twrp, recovery_ramdisk.img, kernel.img and ramdisk.img from the last rom of android 8 (extract with huaweiupdateextractor), then install via twrp with hrupdater 0,4 the same update.zip that you extract the kernel.img, recovery and the other img that I told you.
look at the guides of the preocesses that I told you, if you have any question let me know

If the update process didn't even started, you need to flash stock Pie kernel, recovery_ramdisk and system, using fastboot.
This should get you back to a working OS.

as far as I can read, I think he wants to come back to OREO, so he has to install first recovery_ramdisk.img, kernel.img and ramdisk.img from 8.0.0.143 (extracting those files with huaweiextractorupdate) and then flashing those files via fastboot or your twrp version. Then, he has to use hrupdater 0.4 to install 8.0.0.143
Am I right Pretoriano80?
please, fell free to correct me if i have commited any mistake
PD: MANDATORY TO HAVE UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER FOR THE PROCESS

No, first he has to recover the current OS, and my advise was only for that.
Then he will need to use a TWRP + NoCheck combo, to get back to Oreo.
HuRUpdater can't get you back to Oreo so you guys should stop using that with Pie.

I also installed the EMUI 9.0 on my device using the HWOTA8 method which was successful. The EMUI 9.0 (9.0.0.108). I didn't have any issues too. After a while I decided to switch back to EMUI 8.0. using also HWOTA8 I put three zip files with EMUI8 (update.zip .....). Update ended with error. That's it.
I only have fastboot working but I am able to flash only few partitions System.img, Recovery_ramdisk.img, Kernel.img. I tried to flash them many times - nothing.
Couple months ago I messed up with my phone and I had to buy and use DC-Phoenix. It worked for me then. This time did not because DC-Phoenix only support EMUI 8. They refunded me money I paid for - that's good thing but my phone is still bricked.
Then I've found MultiTool for Huawei

Anyone knows the solution?

I have tried. I flashed Pie 9.0.0.108 - nothing, 9.0.0.112 (chinese ver) - nothing. I tried BLA-L09 8.0.0.148(SP1C432) - nothing.
After flashing recovery_ramdisk, kernel and system of all above firmware there is no change only fastboot is working.
The problem is that downgrade process from Pie to Oreo went to 95% ( I thing - I don't remember exactly but for sure it was 90 something). It could have changed most of partitions to Oreo but left one or few unchanged (like verlist.img, xloadr.img, vendor.img, product.img).
From fastboot I am able to change (flash) only few partitions.
Do you gays know any other tools like dc-phoenix to force to flash all partitions. (Couple months ago when I used DC Phoenix with Emui 8 it used backdoor to flash difficult partitions.)
Example:
Writing XLOADER partition with file X:\Install\Telefony\Huawei_Mate_10_pro\DC_Phoenix_v50\XLOADER.img
XLOADER partition UPDATE ...FAILED
Cannot get FBlock info from device
Activating backdoor: DONE
Writing XLOADER partition with file X:\Install\Telefony\Huawei_Mate_10_pro\DC_Phoenix_v50\XLOADER.img
XLOADER partition UPDATE ...OK

I have tried. I flashed Pie 9.0.0.108 - nothing, 9.0.0.112 (chinese ver) - nothing. I tried BLA-L09 8.0.0.148(SP1C432) - nothing.
After flashing recovery_ramdisk, kernel and system of all above firmware there is no change only fastboot is working.

I think you should use my TWRP + NoCheck recovery and try to flash the Pie beta again.

So you can only boot to fastboot, no matter what?

Yes.
I have tried two methods (the two methods that don't fail right from the start) to update with firmware LLD-L31C432B131 (8.0.0.131)
Fastboot Method
start phone in fastboot
flash ramdisk
flash recovery_ramdisk
flash system
All is sucessful, until I reboot and goto About Phone, where Build Number is still 8.0.0.128
HuRUpdate Method
copy [HuRUpdater_0.3.zip, and update.zip] to sdcard
startup phone in TWRP recovery
install HuRUpdater_0.3.zip
All is sucessful, until I reboot and goto About Phone, where Build Number is still 8.0.0.128
I found B131 on huawei-firmware.com/phone-list/huawei-honor-9-lite, but there appears to be no B128 anywhere.
My question, is this phone (Honor 9 Lite - LLD-L31 C432) able to updated?
If so, what is the correct way?
Yes you can update to B131, I have updated from B128 to B131 via using the FF tool and using the VPN option, then followed by going into the System area to update the from there.
Thanks hacktrix2006.
Okay, my problem was, I was afraid of ending up with an expensive brick, so, in all my efforts, I excluded this, update_all_hw.zip (update_full_LLD-L31A_hw_eu.zip), file.
I finally decided to include it, and HuRUpdater worked. It reported, unknown command, but it continued to work.
My version now is 8.0.0.131, and my S/N and IMEI are all intact.
PS: I prefer the TWRP + HuRUpdater method, because I could use my existing downloaded update. I didn't want to keep downloading 2.5GB over and over again.
