Hello all,
I've rooted my P8Lite L21 using the custom recovery method, flashed the supersu.zip, then restored the original recovery.
Yesterday I had an OTA and now phone reboot once during system boot, and at the second time it hangs during boot.
What can I do to recover this? I have stock recovery, and when I try to VOLDOWN+POWER it never goes to fastboot. (last time I had to use adb reboot-bootloader but now I can't reach system\adb..)
Can you help?
Thanks, cheers,

Hello,
You can boot to fastboot with this method:
Connect phone with PC then power off
Now push two buttons VOLDOWN+POWER+MicroUSB now you can install any stock ROM with fastboot commands and suitable *.img(boot.img, cust.img, system.img)
P.S
What OTA(number) arrive to you?

Worked like a charm Thanks a lot! I don't know the OTA number.. Still can't get into system :|
I'll try flashing TWRP from here and then i don't know which rom to use.. I'd like CM12 but i'm not sure its supported.
Can you suggest any stable ROM ?
Thanks

First you try to remember what is your last ROM number and your region. Or you can install the last beta on android 5.1.1(B010) need unlocked bootloader
Here all official firmware for device ALE-L21

It's Portuguese\Europe, Single SIM.
I'm downloading "Huawei P8 Lite ALE-L21 V100R001C432B171 (Europe)". Is this flashable from fastboot? Yes, i'm unlocked. Does it need the hiSuite or fastboot.exe will suffice?
Thanks Sokkoban, you're being of great help and I'm thanking all your posts

Wait my friend this is single sim ROM
I must download dual sim if you have dual sim device
Yes I'm not shure but if you want install B170 you need first downgrade to B052 then you can install via OTA best and last ROM for you country

Yes, I know this is single SIM. But, why do you say that I need to downgrade to B052 and then OTA? Can't i flash the B170 directly?
The other question i had is, how to flash this. Hisuite or fastboot.exe?
Thanks

If you don't see any problem, I will try to flash B170 directly, since my bootloader is already unlocked. What do you think?
About the link you sent, the site appears in English, but then it changes to russian? I cannot get it back to EN.

OK
Try this. Use Huawei update extractor in forum xda have link to it. Open the UPDATE.APP and extract the following files: Recovery.img, Boot.img, Cust.img, System.img
Then use fastboot commands to flash B171 ROM
I wish you success!

Hi there,
I have a similar problem: bootloop!
I'm comming from B170 and installed 7 HD 1.2 ROM and got some errors, I thougt it would be an good to go the long way to B008 or better B010. After so searching I found: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64483642&postcount=43
- did not step 1 an under-pressed flashing recovery in step 2 and 3, thought I could yet use TWRP.
Obviously, that was the mistake.
At step 4 I recognized that I have to do step 1 to go on.
that worked an I copied the update.zip to internal card, initialised the update.
Not sure it got to 100% but think so.
Result bootloop, can't get to recovery, only fastboot
Tried to flash every thing: B052, B170, and 136a, even the boot.img and recovery.img of B010 and B008
no errors but still bootloop.
PLEASE HELP!!
is there a full version of B080 somewhere to flash by fastboot? or any options to flash the update.zip of B080 again?
All other proposals are welcome!

First 7 HD 1.2 ROM work only over the B010!!!
Second in this archive have the instructions to install Beta B008 why you not did everything described in the instructions?
Third when install stock firmware RECOVERY must be original not TWRP!!!
Now you must install stok recovery, make hard reset then install B052
After that you can install every stock firmware for your region! or follow the instruction to install B008=>B010=>7 HD 1.2 ROM

Hm, this is very strange!
What device do you have? and which region use?
adb reboot recovery --- says: error: device '(null)' not found
if I try with serialnumber
adb -s W3D7XXXXXXXX reboot recovery ---- says error: device 'W3D7XXXXXXXX' not found
but ---- fastboot devices ----says at the same time: W3D7XXXXXXXX

So B170 worked in the first place
Try this method and ROM

All,
Please do not discuss nor recommend using someone else's TWRP backup on your device. You're just asking for a phone brick to occur.

That may be the case for certain situations, but if there's a case of many people bricking their phones over some info found on here that they think SHOULD work without it properly being tested over dozens of situations, that wouldn't be good at all.

i can´t remember where i´ve found those information. i had bookmarked the bing-translated site some time ago but then deleted it since it ended in some nonsense discussion.
it was mostly about an "update" to MM, where people tried to change the phone localization from UL00 to L09 and update to B303 but failed and then used the MM TWRP Backups of some others.
Some ended in an bootloop and others had a corrupt system with FRP lock. I couldn´t tell if this happened because of corrupted backup files or because the users f****** up the recovery process.
Bing couldn´t translate everything to make sense.
They were lucky that they made a backup of the original system and so they were able to get back a fully funktional system.
i just wanted to warn you
I was running the L09C432B303 MM Beta and tried a method to rollback to B145, it was the method where you get a B114 Full OTA and flash the system.img, recovery.img, cust.img and boot.img however it didnt work I I restored my TWRP backup, however since then my version number in settings shows as
CRR-L09C900B303
Does anyone know how to get this back to C432??
i have rollback now and its realy easy.
make fallow:
install adb
download fallow:
HuaweiUpdateExtractor and Firmware 145 (when you will update 303 too)
Bring your phone in fastboot mode (make it of and hold power down and power)
install and open Huawei Update Extractor and open the FW 145
extract fallow data:
boot.img
cust.img
recovery.img
system.img
rename it so how i have named it and flash it with adb to your Phone
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot reboot
When you will stay at 145 you can make now a Hardreset in recovery mode when you will update to MM let it boot to lollipop and go to update manual / local and update your Phone with MM update.zip
when its down go to recovery and reset your phone.
Ready

That isnt a rollback - you'll find that when on B145 you cant activate security settings such as fingerprint ID. All it does it allow you to reinstall MM Beta Update...nothing more

Fixed.....I think my downloads were corrupting on my laptop...finally fixed by downloading full B145 firmware...extracting boot.img, recovery.img, cust.img, userdata.img, system.img using the huaweiupdateextractor tool and flashing them via fastboot, once that completed I used the same firmware to by putting in /dload/ folder and when that completed I flashed the b303 update...now my region is back to C432 and I updated to B321 version on MM
Difference?

That´s interesting, however anyone knows what´s the difference between C432(Europe) and C900(Global)?.
I´m asking because I updated C432B145 to MM and ended up in C900B303(now on C900B321). Only issue so far is that LTE band 4 is not working, but don´t know if it was before updating to 6.0, as I was using the phone in Europe(LTE B3/B7).

Hi!
Soon we can expect some update to P9. Can I update in the future through OTA with open bootloader and root?
Yes, just flash stock recovery, make update and flash twrp back.
Thanks, where can we find original recovery? any idea?

you can flash it with the SRK Tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-bootloader-root-t3374068
Edit: stock recovery also included in this pack: http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/guide-root-huawei-p9-t3367800
Extra info, i have updated today:
Once you have flashed back original recovery you can begin update. But it is going to fail. Your phone first downloading a small update package (mine was 175mb) but since there were some changes due to root it failed immediately. You phone restarts and is downloading the full update package (~1.7gb). That is going to be OK.
You have to reflash TWRP and reflash root zip in order to have root.

so it worked for you after resetting the phone? The status of your bootloader should have no impact on OTA from what I've seen.
Hi when you reflash with the firmware b136 by dload the phone do itself a full wipe and relock the boot loader
After the ota b166 was made fine

thx, at least there is a way not prepared to go through all that though. I just realized I still have the update files on my phone (under \Internal storage\HwOUC\54265), there are two files: update.zip (381 mb) and update_data_hw_eu.zip (84 mb).
All I have to do is start up the update process again, as the files are still there. I tried moving these to dload folder on the sd card, packed, unpacked etc nothing seems to make it work so far. If I copy just the update.app from inside the update.zip the update process works but nothing changes, still on B136.
Yeah, holding back here for the moment, until we have a clear idea on how to update. I'm not needing b166 that much, that I have to jump through all those hoops, reset, wipe etc. just for the update.
How can i flash the stock recovery, tryed with STK Tool got an failed . (Command not allowed)
Ok, Recovery should now installed, but, when i press all 3 Buttons i got EMUI "Download latest version and recovery" "Reboot" and "Shutdown" When i click Download.... he cant download any files, wifi is working!
But it didnt install the Update.APP from the dload Folder. (B166)
I am at the Moment on B136

Not exactly understanding what you are asking. For some reason moving the update.app from B166 in the dload folder is not working for this update. So at this moment there is no way to manually update.
If your OTA update failed and/or you don't get the update notification anymore there is only one way to get B166 at the moment: Flash full stock B136 (dload method), which does a factory reset and reverts everything back to stock, then you will get the update notification back and the update will work, even with unlocked bootloader.
I tried to install B162, that doesn't work with dload. My Bootloader is still unlocked, stock recovery is now installed, still rooted.
Should I try to install b136 and try to get the update?

Hi all,
I have a problem with my Huawei P8 Lite 2017.
Yesterday I forced an update with 'Huawei Firmware Updater' app from Android: I had PRA-LX1C432B170 and B172 was installed.
At the beginning it said 'Your Device has failed verification and may not work properly', but it booted after manually pressing the Power Button.
Than, trying to fix this, I messed everything up and now the phone won't boot!
Can you please help me?
I have Unlocked Bootloader, FRP Unlocked and can easily access stock recovery and fastboot and flash everything, but nothing seems to work: I tried the 'Unbrick' function from 'Huawei Multi-Tool', but the file I flashed didn't work at all... even factory reset stucks at 99%!
Can I ask you what to do?
It's impossible to find anything for Dual SIM Unbranded phones, like mine! I just can't find the original update.zip of PRA-LX1C432B170 version.
I just want to make it work again!
Thanks for your support, and Happy New Year to you all!

You can use Firmware finder app on play store to get the ROM...then use Huawei update extractor to extract the system.img ,boot.img from update.app and flash them via fastboot commands and then do a factory reset.

Flashed system.img and boot.img in this order, but it stucks on the page of unlocked phone (Booting Phone Now...), so I booted recovery and then I did a factory reset. Nothing happens but the Huawei logo showing up for a few seconds, then it reboots.

In this case I think you damaged the Vendor partition during the force update...you can't flash (product.img, version.img,cust.img and vendor.img) via fastboot commands...you either try to use dd commands to flash them...and it's a little bit risky or you find a TWRP backup from your build...or you can use DC Phoenix tool to unbrick your device

Thanks for the useful tips!
I don't know what product.img, version.img or cust.img are used for, but cust.img can be sent through fastboot (I think so because Multi-Tool let me choose it for fastboot flash in the 'Unbrick' section).
What I'm trying to do now is to download the same version I had before (B172 FULL-OTA MF) and I try to send it via fastboot.
Any other Ideas?
Can I Install TWRP and a Custom ROM or TWRP + Original ROM?
You can try to use TWRP and a custom ROM...but as far as I know all the custom ROMs for this device have bugs...but you are free to try them

- Flash via fastboot the stock recovery, boot and system from b182, factory reset in stock recovery and try to boot.
- Install twrp in recovery2 (eRecovery), search for the b182 backup and follow the steps to restore it.
- Pay to use Dc-Phoenix (near 15€) and flash with their app a full stock rom (the app help you to download a full rom)
Good luck!

Hi All!
Thanks for your tips.
I've followed this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8...uide-unbrick-huawei-p8-lite-2017-pra-t3713574
and now the phone boot and works, but I have some problems:
1. Firmware says P9 Lite 2017 (but it's correctly a PRA-LX1 firmware)
2. Patches are from June and I can't find any firmware update... I think I have an hybrid firmware, because I have both IMEIs but something (like Google Patches) are related to the firmware of the guide I followed.
I have one question to ask: I have an unlocked bootloader and I don't want to see the message at Phone Power-On, but if I Re-Lock the phone won't boot: I had to unlock the bootloader to make it working. What can I do?
Is it possible to find an official B182 firmware and flash it into my Phone? It maybe the best/clean solution for my phone.

You can download the full backup of b182 from this forum and try to restore with twrp or extract the boot, recovery and system imgs and try to flash with adb, sorry im not english and not understand all words.

Your English is very good and the link is very useful!
Thanks, this is what I was looking for!
The idea to extract the boot, recovery and system imgs is intelligent, but the ROM of that Link seems to be rooted, so maybe it won't work at all.
I'll give it a try and I'll report back if it works or not.
Thanks for the tips

If you can flash twrp in recovery2 you can restore the full backup following the steps in the another thread, if not, find another b182 backup no-rooted and try, but i think the restore method is the best option, good luck!

Hi @dannyzamora
Restore of my phone worked and now I have a full stock phone!
I wrote a guide in the other thread to help other people who have similar problems to try to fix their phone.
Your suggestion was very helpful and now I can use my phone as it was before (apart from a bug, the only one, related to MagazineUnlock that is not working at all... nothing that compromise the use of the phone, obviously).
Thanks
Hi,
I've installed a custom rom, but now i can´t install updates, Pie for example.
How can i unroot and go back to stock rom?

I'd suggest HurUpdater: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho...h-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279/page111
OTAs do work with an unlocked bootloader, but not with root or custom kernels.
Does this works with the P10? In the post i ddin´t found the P10.
And if it works, wich zip file i have to choose? And i have root
Thanks
Try my guide (Tutorial #2, Oreo to Oreo)
After that do a factory reset with eRecovery (boot with Vol+ and connected USB).
What also should work is flashing the system.img manually via fastboot.
For this extract the system.img from the correct firmware version with Huawei Update Extractor.
Connect your phone to your PC, boot into fastboot and flash with "fastboot flash system PATH\TO\SYSTEM.IMG".
After that do a factory reset with eRecovery (boot with Vol+ and connected USB).
Note for the next time: backup your system partition via TWRP before flashing the custom rom.
Also note that a factory reset is needed, without your phone won't boot, so backup your personal data before doing it.

Yes, it works on the P10. You can download the files with the firmware finder app. I'd recommend the newest oreo version for your customisation (e.g. B382 for C432).
But Jannomag's solution should work equally well.
Wich Jannomag´s thread?
Do you have the link, please?
Thanks

The fourth message in this thread

I followed the guide but know i am i an bootloop. I get the message "your device has failed verification and may not work properly"

Possibly you renamed the wrong customisation file (i did it once for the 09 while I needed the 29).
Which one did you download? And did you flash manually or did you use my script?
Download my oeminfo, it's from VTR-L29C432 Version 8.0.0.380, while the version doesn't really matter.
Flash it via TWRP using "Install" and "Use Image". Flash it to oeminfo partition. Then do my update script again.
I followed the guide to do Oreo to Oreo - basically wanting to get from custom Rom (fRomFuture B370) back to stock, so I chose the same firmware version to extract. Flashed everything with the script and it went fine and it boots and works.. but
The resolution seems to be off, too low and the right side of the screen is unresponsive to touch (about 1cm )
EDIT- Rolled back to fRomFuture B370 for now - need to find a way to get back to stock, as want to move on to Openkirin ROM instead
HI, i have a vtr-l29 root, i want to unroot(version oreo), how do i do it? what do i need to flash?. thank you Alex
