Hi together
I managed to unlock my bootloader, tried to install LineageOS 18.1 but I bricked my Phone. Then I managed to unbrick it, and I was able to flash Lineageos. But since this, Network is not working anymore. I can enter the PIN for my Simcard, and then Phone tells me that SIM1/SIM2 is not allowed. I reflashed Miui 12.0.1 there is the same with the SIMCard.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi all. So I recently bricked my device while trying to update to oreo.
What I did was rebrand my device from PRA-LA1 to PRA-AL00X(P8 Lite 2017 to Honor 8 Lite) which was required for updating to Oreo. After that, I typed in the command from TWRP to install the update.zip, but nothing happened so I rebooted my device. It boots up as Honor and my eRecovery and fastboot still works, but my bootloader locked when I rebranded.
As I'm typing this, I managed to connect to WiFi and its downloading the firmware, but what I was wondering is will it be possible again to unlock bootloader again? Because my IMEI number obviously changed since rebranding and I didn't save the unlock code so I was wondering if I manage to unbrick this device if it'll be possible to unlock bootloader again with the new IMEI. Any help will be appreciated.
Hi
I have a BIG problem with my P10 (L29C432) on Oreo 365.
Tried downgrade to nougat through Firmware Finder but update failed. Now i have this warning at every reboot.
I have LOCKED bootloader (never rooted phone). And i cant get bootloader unlock code (website not working).
Also cant enter fastboot mode because of that error.
Is there anyway to RESTORE phone with locked bootloader? I have tried to flash previous firmware with sdcard method (hold power,+,- keys) but update fails everytime.
Is there other way to flash new firmware?
I can use phone but at every reboot i get this message?
If there is no other way to flash new firmware than with unlocked bootloader... Where to get code for unlocking bootloader?
Thanks.
Edit:
I can enter fastboot mode but my bootloader is locked.
you have to unlock bootloader by sending all the needed info per email.
you need to send them IMEI, model version, S/N number, and product id and request for bootloader unlocking code this email: [email protected]
next time read about how to rollback to nougat...
Thank you. So I need to unlock bootloader.
Will try to get code.

If you don't have your "product id", you can't have the code for unlock the bootloader :/
The "Product ID" is a code into the system info on android :s
I am waiting for code from Huawei. They will send me code in next days...
you can get product id on imei24. com by typing your imei.
Now i have another problem. I think phone is "dead" now. Unuseable.
Tried to root phone and now nothing works.
Phone does not recognize SIM card at all.
If I go into settings and system information there is no IMEI number?
Can i restore this?
Or need to take it to service center? Or dead phone?
send the device against wall. Buy another one and forget averything about rooting and unlocking bootloader. Its for your safety, trust me.
I have experience with rooting and flashing phones (Sony). Never had problem.
So there is no way to restore phone?
maybe in repair store. Never heard about bricked device without imei. You can still try to flash original firmware.
Hello there,
So let me explain to you what happent to me.
1 week ago i received the notification telling me that i can update to android 10 with miui 10.4.8, so i did it and i don't know why when the phone rebooted it was stuck on start screen, infinitly loading.
I let it like this all the night, and then when i woke up it was still in the same state.
So i dedicated to flash my older rom, 10.3.5, but when i flashed it using fastboot rom the bootloader got relocked again and i had this message telling me "This miui version can't be installed on your device" in recovery
I can't unlock bootloader again because i need to add my mi account to miui (wich i have no access to), so i decided to use the EDL method, i contacted some people that have an verified miui account with EDL permission, i flashed 10.3.5 but problem is still here i made sure it was indian rom because my phone is india (raphaelin)
So here i am without a solution
Thanks in advance, i can pay if peope can help me
Use miflash and a stock rom. I've never had the bootloader relock itself through flashing.
I have a P9 (EVA-L09) branded to 3Ireland. I asked the service provider for the unlock code and got this:
Hi there,
Thanks for your recent unlock code request.
Below is the unlock code for Huawei IMEI 862836031485752.
Your unlock code is 1738262161041091. Please find instructions to unlocking your phone or modem below.
So I put a vodafone SIM in the p9 and it asked for the unlock code which I entered. My vodafone SIM works fine so the P9 is SIM unlocked.
With a view to installing LineageOS, I enabled Developer Options, Enabled OEM unlock and USB debugging. I then powered off the phone.
Holding the Vol Down button, I inserted the USB cable and the P9 restarted in Fastboot&Recovery Mode.
However, it says, in green, Phone Locked, and, in red, FRP Unlock.
I guess I have to unlock it to install TWRP but how do I proceed?
TIA

You mean your mobile service provider?
If so, they gave you SIM unlock code to make your phone open for SIM cards from other operators
But that has nothing with the unlocking the Bootloader - what you see in Fastboot and what you need for flashing is about unlocking the Bootloader
Operators don't provide/sell the codes to unlock Bootloaders - rooting, custom ROMs are not in their interest
In the old days, Huawei provided (for free) Bootloader codes. They stopped and for the new phones made it really hard to unlock the Bootloaders, for some even impossible (at least, yet)
For the old P9 you can still buy a code from e.g. DC Unlocker (use Google)
But then, be careful, read the guides first - this mistake with buying a wrong code was benign while flashing an interviewcompatible ROM can brick your phone.
E.g., you are most likely on EMUI 5, and you cannot use any GSI ROM but only ROMs that were ported and adapted for P9, EMUI 5 ( Nougat firmwares). Also, if the ROM instructions say it is for P9 but EMUI 8, it is not for your phone (unless you rebrand and upgrade to Chinese EMUI 8)
It's not, take any AOSP or GSI ROM from elsewhere and flash to Huawei. If you are new in the game, go to the P9 Custom ROMs section here on XDA and read the OP posts to make sure you fullfil the requirements before you flash.
Be aware that most of those threads are 'dead' - early flashoholics long ago moved to the newer phones. Few remaining who stayed with P9 (usually as a second phone), upgraded to Chinese EMUI 8 (Oreo), and you can find them only in the few still active threads. Be careful and good luck
You can get one using dc unlocker for 4 euros. Just jut it down upon getting it. From there its smooth sailing on TWRP. You have to reinstall twrp from time to time if you are on stock though
@zgfg, I greatly appreciate the clear and comprehensive explanation. Very helpful.
@Bill, 4€ is a reasonable price to pay for an old phone.
Thanks you!
Hello for everyone, I have a Mi11 Ultra Chinese version and tried to unlock the bootloader to be able to install a global rom or any other. During the unlocking process a failure occurred and the phone ran out of signal, when I try to make a call, radio off appears and does not execute the call. I have tried using fastboot rom with mi flash tool and gives the error antirolback message, I have tried rom of the forum xiaomi.eu, i have tried to unlock the bootloader again and gives the message for me to turn off the wifi and use the chip, however does not recognize the chip and do not know what to do. Could someone help me please, I no longer have any ideas on how to proceed. I thank you for your attention right now.

If you are still stuck, try to install the fastboot EU ROM or install TWRP and flash the EU stable or weekly. With the Chinese version it requires you to connect with your sim to compare imea number and account phone number. The EU version doesn't ask. It might get you out of a fix.
Just be warned that if your phone was affected by the radio going off during any official proceedure, you may have corrupted your persist.img file. I'm not sure if there is any way back if you have other than may be an EDL reflash or a trip to a service center. If you are really stuck, go down the EU ROM first, then EDL before sending it off unless you can claim on its warranty.

That's not true standard is 168h. You can get more hours when you try to unlock more than 1 phone in a month.

No, u must wait
what if you create a new mi account and login with it and try to unlock again? anyone tried before?
Maibe if U put another sim. Even so, imei remains the same. I think phone data will be recognised by XI if U try to make another account.
