Huawei P30 Pro - no access to recovery menu - Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi everyone
I've a Huawei P30 Pro which after an update (i assume it did an update over night) is not working anymore.
I can turn the phone on, but i can't access it. It asks for a 4-digit PIN but it doesn't recognize my self-set pin. I've already tried random PIN's but it doesn't work anything.
It looks like all the data has been already cancelled, background is away and no face recognition.
The only thing i can do is access fastboot mode, but i can't access recovery mode to reset all. If i try with volume + and Power button it just remains at the Huawei Logo, but no menu appears.
Any ideas how i can reset the phone? HiSuite also doesn't work. Any ideas how i could access the recovery mode?
Here some information about the firmware/device:

I am having the same issue. Did you find a solution?

No solution found yet, still having the same issue. I'm not able to access recovery mode...

Hey again,
I found the solution on my side. After the update the lock screen pin was replaced with another's app password (bank app screen password in my case). In order to be able to try many different passwords you are using to access different apps on phone and bypass waiting time:
Solution
1) Find old android phone and format it
2)Set up the old phone and use the gmail account you have on your p30 pro.
3) Select to restore from gmail and it will ask for lock screen password.
4) You can try many different passwords without waiting and when the password is accepted you can use it to unlock you are p30 pro.

Thank you for sharing your solution.
In the meantime i've tried all possible codes i've used in the various apps, but it seams like no one of these codes work for me.
I'm requested to enter a 4 digit pin, but no of my usually used pins work. The only thing i can do, is accessing the fastboot mode (when connected to a computer) but it's impossible to enter the recovery mode, where i would need to do a hard reset.
I really don't care if i loose all my data, i just would like to get access to the phone again.

I think it should be connected to usb cable to access recovery(to pc or charger)

[Q] Broke screen, can't unlock+stuck in airplane mode+no USB debugging

So I dropped my phone and shattered the screen a few days ago. Just today a section of the screen failed that prevented me from unlocking the device with my pattern. Like an idiot, I kept trying to obtain the pattern unlock, but ultimately failed and now the phone is forcing me to unlock it by signing into the Google account associated with the phone. Unfortunately that only works if you have a Wifi or data connection, which I DON'T have because I had it in Airplane mode when the digitizer died.
So what are my options here? The phone DOES have an unlocked bootloader, as I loaded the Mexican ROM a while back to replace the stock U.S. one. When I boot up to Fastboot mode, it says unlocked status 3, and I can successfully see the device by using the "fastmode devices" mode. However, I cannot access the device via ADB because I didn't have USB debugging turned on.
I'm not all that familiar with Android recovery options and would just like to see if I can get into my device without having to wipe it. Ideally all I want to do is either:
A.) Somehow turn on Wifi so I can unlock the device by signing into google (I can connect a keyboard up to the phone to type in my credentials)
B.) Somehow turn on USB debugging so I can use ADB to then clear the password or turn on wifi, etc
Help!

When you hold down the power button at the lockscreen, isn't there an option to turn on/off airplane mode?

Huh I can't believe I didn't see that option. Unfortunately, I also had my data connection turned off as well, so simply turning off airplane mode is not sufficient.
I tried to load CWM recovery using the fastmode flash recovery cmd, thinking it would give me some sort of ADB access, but it errored out with a "remote failure" error. I'm not even sure that recovery would have let me disable the pattern lock anyways.
Thanks for the help!

That link doesn't help me at all, since I can't unlock the phone to turn on USB debugging, nor would I even be able to unlock it even if I could control it remotely.
But anyways, great news to report! I was able to eventually load the Clockwork mod (CWM) as the recovery partition in fastboot mode. The problem earlier trying to flash CWM was that the phone's battery was too low and it threw a vague "remote failure" error. After charging it up to 100% the flash worked fine. After that, I rebooted into CWM and then flashed the Aroma file manager zip (using method VII on this page: http :// en. miui. com /thread-5684-1-1 . html) , and managed to delete the password and gesture key files, and voila! after restarting my phone I was in! Wooo!
So obviously I was only able to do this because my phone was previously rooted with bootloader unlocked. If that weren't the case (ie, default from the factory), then the only option would have been to wipe the device.

why dont you take an HDMI cable then connect it to a TV or screen then you can see everything
Mine screen was broken some moths ago and I did this to use phone before new screen replacement came. Maybe it can help you.

Yes, I should have immediately stopped trying to pattern-unlock it with the broke screen and waited until I could have hooked up my mouse. I didn't know it would lock me out of the pattern-unlock method after so many tries and force me to unlock using google signin. Also, with the google sign in, I assumed it used cached credentials, but it does not. It requires an active data or wifi connection to verify. Neither of those were turned on, nor could I turn them on. The only option I had was to get in there using a Recovery ROM and remove the password key files. I guess the moral of this story is don't be an idiot and absolutely try to get into your phone right away, when there are plenty of other ways to get in even if hte screen is completely broke (like you said with HDMI cable, keyboard, mouse, etc)
Also, I had a "fun" little issue after that where I tried to edit the build.props file to enable home screen rotation, but that ended up crashing the OS and I had to use fastboot to flash just the system.img that was from the stock Mexican 4.1.2 ROM. So now, I just downloaded an app that allows me to rotate my device, and thus allow me to avoid the dead part of the digitizer when I need to.

Attempting to enter recovery mode...

I recently bought this device. I usually root/unlock bootloader on my devices. I haven't attempted anything on this watch yet, but I did try to enter recovery mode. I reset the device and waited for the screen to turn off. Once the screen turned on and showed the LG insignia, I swiped my finger from the top left corner down to the bottom right (as I read on another post). This took me to the bootloader. After that, I selected the recovery option. This caused the classic Android with it's chest open, red triangle, with an exclamation point. My current phone (OnePlus 3) has an unlocked bootloader and root. I doubt it's related, but could that be causing an issue since they're connected? Android Pay works on the watch even though it won't work on the rooted phone.
Is there not a stock recovery on this device, is it locked, or is this a result of the current state of my phone?
The red triangle means a fatal loading error and all processes have ceased. In other words it isn't letting you into the recovery, same if you hold the two buttons you can get to the bootloader but selecting recovery gives you the same result.
Even if you managed to get to the recovery, there is no known way to connect it to the PC, so you cannot unlock the bootloader.

No known way to connect it while in the bootloader menu? I've been using it with Android Studio to work on watch faces and an instrument tuner. I haven't tried connecting while in the bootloader menu though.
The command is:
adb connect (your watch ip address)
Thinking about it though, I think they both have to be on the same WiFi network. Maybe it's not possible.
This only works with ADB (when watch is fully turned on). It does not work with bootloader.
Works on download mode as well but couldnt get anything to do in there

Do tell more. You can actually connect to the watch when it is in download mode?

Yes had to setup my home wifi to be open. then reboot in download mode
But as i said once in download i dunno what we can try?
Gets IP adress which is the same ip it gets with adb and can connect with adb on that ip so it is possible to connect to wifi somehwo in that download mode.
Youtube Video : https://youtu.be/IVNmEXj-6Pk
Trying to get lg Flash tool to connect but need dll. it has network option so it should be possible
Can even ping the ip so we should be able to do something?
Wow that is awesome. I assume this could be used to flash custom recovery (and subsequently root the device), if somebody figures out how.

Hopefully. Older Samsung phones are rooted via download mode so maybe it will be possible somehow
Well, I plan to try it as well, using your findings (thx!) with this.Wish me luck. Having flashing available is just one step. we don't have twrp or magisk yet
Hello, could you please repost your video? because I am trying to do the same, and I am failing. I set up guest wifi between my laptop and the watches. it is not protected by any password/wpa. watches are pingable, and I am able to adb to it. but after rebooting to bootloader, I am unable to connect. I would like to perform at least oem unlock, but I can't, as I am unable to connect to it.
Could you please provide more detailed howto?
BTW, that red exclamation mark while in Recovery: Press crown button and top button once at the same time. Recovery will open.
From there, we can sideload ZIP. Question is, what zip? I can only assume that it has to be genuine firmware (OTA) and that it has to be downloaded to internal memory prior of rebooting to recovery. So manual update is possible.
Problem I have right now is, that bootloader is locked, and in order to unlock it, we'll need fastboot connection. But the bootloader in the watch does not support so called 'SoftAP' feature. Seems like it will need an update from Google. But when this will happen I don't know. Possibly with Android 9 update? There must be a way, but LG says that they do not share technical specs, ATT gave me unlock code (I assume for SIM unlock, but my watches are already SIM unlocked). Any ideas? There has to be a way to connect to watch once in recovery, download or bootloader (all three modes are fully functional, just without wireless connectivity).

I have a Ticwatch Pro and am trying to get past the exclamation/no command screen when going into recovery. I have tried literally every combination of button presses with the two side buttons and still cannot get any results. Google searches have turned up little in the way of solutions. So, to all the smart folks here on XDA, how can I get this damn watch into recovery!?!?
(background on why - didn't wear the watch for a few weeks, watch battery dies. When charged and rebooted, got a message that my watch was locked with find my device. From there, I have tried all my potential passwords to unlock but nothing worked. I am left to reset outside the OS now so help is GREATLY appreciated)
you need to press in "phone info" long press until you see adb enable bro

Question I can't get my device to show up in unlock tool (RN10Pro)

Hey all, Just got Redmi note 10 pro. I'm trying to unlock, but can't get it to show up in unlock tool. I followed all the steps here:
XiaomiWiki.github.io
Resources for Xiaomi devices, formerly hosted on r/Xiaomi
xiaomiwiki.github.io
Nothing showing up, even after refresh. Developer options is enabled and everything. I hold Vol Down + Power to get into fastboot flash screen, but no recognition. What is wrong?
Thanks.
EDIT: FIXED
I just noticed, my device says SIM card not installed or activated, even though it uses phone data fine. How do I fix this?
I fixed it, this was an issue with my google USB drivers. closed
