[Q] i cant flash stock B136, Update fails at 50%

hey xda world,
first this is my first post ever on this forum and i cant hold myself of being amazed from how helpful and smart the people here,
my case is kinda hairy so bare with me
now lets get to the mess, so i got yesterday myself a p9 *EVA-L09C02B123/Vodafone*, unlocked its bootloader then installed twrp and root, after doing the process i tried to lock the bootloader because of the annoying message at the bootup, but i couldn't because of an error from fastboot {Root type is risk}.
i looked up the error around the interwebs and xda ofc, and somewhere i found that relocking can only be done if all the partitions are oem/stock, so i decided to get rid of the twrp and flashed back the default recovery from the SRK Tool and still couldnt relock it.
then i started to look for stock roms and couldn't find a stock for the L09C02, so i tried the dload B136 and it failed at 50%, knowing that oeminfo dictates which version the phone should get, i got the C432 one and flashed it using twrp, did factory reset and i noticed the vodafone boot logo being replaced by the default huawei, at this point the build became *EVA-L09C432B123* and tried the b136 dload and still no luck and failing at 50%.
please help ! :crying::crying::crying:

Welcome to xda
Does your phone still boot? And what is it you are trying to achieve right now? Relock your bootloader?

my phone does boot, and yes i want to relock for the reason i might want to sell it but having that boot message is kinda cringey for non power users.
also an update on the case, yesterday after posting this thread i downloaded an update zip from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67122856&postcount=47
then i flashed the zip using twrp and succeeded, now the version is L09C432B136 but still no luck locking the bootloader.

Possible bad download? Try downloading the whole stock rom again.
Any error messages?

this is not a fix to lock the bootloader as that is hardware level not software level. Use the tool DC-Unlocker or SRK Tools, look on the other threads under Huawei P9 and you will find these two options to lock the bootloader again. I have already done it on mine after de-branding and network unlocking my (what is now a....) EVA-L09C432B136

If you can boot and have the correct version, I'd say try a factory reset, download that full stock rom again and try flashing. I don't see why that shouldn't work. Unless there is something different hardware wise about those branded ones...

first must remove root via super su, then flash stock recovery then relock

I get a "root type is risk" when i relock with SRK Tool, any idea?

Actually AFAIA flashing the stock rom will relock the bootloader.

i had an issue trying to update from B136 to B166 and i ****ed up everything
Only solution i found was to dload with stock rom B136 provided by PaulObrian in dev section, successfully, and guess what ? bootloader was locked again

P10 Oreo and root

I recently updated my P10 VTR L29 C432 from nougat to Oreo B360 via oreoupgrade script method as posted in forum but after update my bootloader seems to be locked again i wanted to root my phone via installing TWRP but it's not allowed by fastboot
Any solution or any solution to unlock bootloader without losing data !? I have too much files and apps on phone that i won't lose

I still have the same problem, created an thread many weeks ago and still don't have an reply. Seems like the only way is to make an backup with that backup tool in the settings (advanced->save&restore) or an backup with hisuite...

There's no way to unlock the bootloader without factory reset.
You can only do a backup with HiSuite or Huawei cloud - but notice: you need to backup DCIM manually!
Just a question, because you said, that you updated your phone with my oreoupgrade script:
Did you follow my guide exactly or did you do anything after the update progress was finished?
I need this information, because if this happens to more people, I need to take a look on the progress.

That's odd. All devices I testeds stayed unlocked after update.
The update won't lock the bootloader by itself - normally.
You're sure, that you didn't lock it manually?
Is only the FRP Lock active? You can unlock this by enabling the OEM Unlock in Developer Settings in the settings app.

Okay, that's bad. I'm sorry for this.
You need to unlock it with fastboot command and do a factory reset.
But don't know why the update process locked your phone while other stay unlocked.

Huawei p8 lite 2017 bricked after wrong oem flash

(SOLVED) So I wanted to debrand my phone, and I saw this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/c432-oeminfo-flash-twrp-t3384903
problem is, the oem I flashed with twrp was for the p9 lite, now my phone doesn't boot inside the os, it only goes to huawei erecovery but the download always fails. I can boot to fastboot mode but everything I try to do it says command not allowed, only fastboot devices work
I hope someone can help me as I really need my phone for work, thanks very much
my original cust was C02
I also have a twrp backup I did, but I just cant get inside twrp because as soon the phone turns on it goes to erecovery
Edit: i finally resolved and I'm going to really help you if you flashed the wrong oem file just like me, just follow these steps:
1. since you installed a new oeminfo, you are gonna need to unlock the bootloader again, (just like you did the first time), but wait! here is what I did wrong, when you request an unlock code, huawei in the unlock page is gonna ask you for your imei and serial number, I was lazy and I got my imei via fastboot instead of checking the one on my phone's box, worst idea ever because when you flash another oem your imei is gonna change so that's why in the site it said sn and imei are mismatching, so take the IMEI on your phone's box and NOT via fastboot. Anyway, let's go to part 2
2. in the unlocking site they are gonna ask for a product id wich you can get by writing *#*#1357946#*#* in the phone's dialpad, but you're probably thinking "how can I do that if my phone does't boot the os?" but don't worry my brudda! just download this https://cloud.mail.ru/public/KGmS/1cEhHg1G6 , open it and chose huawei y300-0100 as product model, then put your IMEI (take the one from your phone's box!!) and it's gonna give you the product id you need in the huawei site.
3. once they give you the unlocking password, power off your huawei and connect it in your pc with your usb while holding the volume down button, you should go in fastboot mode
4. once you are in fastboot mode write in the cmd fastboot oem unlock (9982883838382365) <<(instead of this numbers write the unlocking password they gave you in the huawei unlocking site) aaaand done, you unlocked the bootloader once again.
5. if you previously had twrp (before flashing the wrong oem file) it's gonna pop up when you boot the phone, now you can use fastboot or twrp again to flash the right oem (or stock rom)
I REALLY HOPE I'M GONNA HELP YOU BECAUSE I KNOW HOW BAD IT FEELS WHEN YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE LIKE I DID!!
Now bye everyone I need to go play soccer and I'm late

FRP status? (in fastboot)
Phone status? (in fastboot)

unlock the bootloader again, even if it says its locked, after that fastboot should work fine. then you can try again booting into twrp and flash the right oeminfo

I got it directly in the site I also tried this method https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/how-to-product-id-bricked-p9-t3561156
but when I click on commit after writing all in the huawei unlock site bars it says SN and IMEI are mismatched

I mean you really f***ed up there. I thought that you could restore the device by eRecovery but If you would do that you would brick it completely bc it would Download everything for the p9...
you can't do anything without the unlock Code.
You could otherwise try to force upgrade via dload
---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:02 PM ----------
You could try this Generator https://cloud.mail.ru/public/KGmS/1cEhHg1G6
or DC unlocker (costs money)

You can use Firmware finder for PC and eRecovery DNS method to restore your phone to any firmware you want

P10 not turning on after update!!!

Hello.
i have a Huawei P10. [VTR-L29 9.0.1.159(C185E3R1P9)]. I updated it using hisuite and firmware finder via erecovery 2 weeks ago, then recently i tried to check for updates in hisuite, an update is available, with the same build number(developer) with size of 880mb and i updated it, after completion of update, phone restarts, verify installation packages and proceed with update installing, after 99% phone restarts again and not turning on itself, i tried manually turning it on, not successful. so I tried plugging it in my computer, hisuite detects it, and system recovery is the only option. i tried but it failed, and should be taken to the service center.
What should I do?
-my phone was purchased abroad
-warranty expired a year ago
-i dont have the box of it and the imei infos.
If anyone can help me, please I need it. THANKS

Hope that bootyloader still working, else there's a chance for you to get another phone.
If I had to go thru what you have today... I would try to flash Emui 9 based RR or Los just to revived while enjoying the pure android interface.
If all else fails... Go back to basic maybe there is a thing or two that you've missed

Can you get to the bootyloader or recovery? As long as bootyloader still working there's still a chance for revival.
You can try flash stock recovery & try to get it to flash the stock fw from it.

Unlocking bootloader: definitive bye-bye to automatic updates?

With the Moto Z, after I returned the phone to stock (flashed stock firmware and locked the bootloader), I'd be able to flash stock firmware with the flashing locked.
Not so with the Motorola One Zoom. In other words, flashing stock and re-locking didn't return the phone to its pristine state. Even when flashing stock firmware over stock firmware, I have to unlock the bootloader.
Differences I observed: on the bootloader screen, when re-locked the Z would show "oem_locked" again. On the One Zoom, it shows "flashing_locked" instead. I'm pretty sure it showed "oem_locked" before unlocking.
WIth the Z, every time I wanted to unlock the bootloader, I had to issue "fastboot oem unlock" followed by the unlock code. The code isn't necessary with the re-locked One Zoom.
In other words, maybe it was a one-way trip. It seems that the phone won't return to its original state, it looks it's modified for good. And I'm afraid this means bye-bye to automatic updates.
Am I missing something here?

My bootloader is also unlocked and I dont have any problems with receiving and installing OTAs I also have Magisk and EdExposed installed - no problems at all.

Hey all,
I have the Moto One Zoom running on Android 9.
Also, It's Rooted with Magisk and have Riru EdXposed installed, can I install my OTA updates without bootloop or do I have to Uninstall Magisk, relock bootloader and factory reset/flash stock firmware to get latest OTA updates?
Any feedback is appreciated.
Thanks
