Model: HUAWEI CRR-L09
Product ID: 30460392
Build number: CRR-L09C368B146
Hoping for some help here! I'm not a complete noob and I have unlocked and flashed customs ROMs on a few devices before but I'm going round in circles with the Mate S I bought yesterday.
I think that I have successfully unlocked the bootloader (see attached pic) after I got the code online and it is also FRP unlocked. I don't seem to be able to flash TWRP though. I'm using twrp-2.8.7.0-carrera.img from here. After trying to flash TWRP with ADB I don't seem to have any recovery at all.
Vol Up + Power = Stuck on Huawei logo. Have to power off.
Vol Down + Power = Phone just starts up normally.

But I can't get into recovery. On the TWRP website it mentions that you may have to manually enter recovery the first time you boot after installing TWRP to stop the custom recovery being overwritten. I have tried using Vol Up + Power on the first boot but nothing happens.
Any ideas? Can't start to use the phone until it's rooted ans I can restore some apps.
Thanks in advance.
i've got exactly the same problem since i converted my L09 to UL00, recovery is not booting up anymore and supersu is not working either.

Tried this numerous times, downloaded the TWRP.img again just to be sure.
As per my first post, the TWRP.img gives me an OKAY message but holding down either Vol Up + Vol Down + Power or just Vol Up + Vol Down and issuing the fastboot reboot command just leaves the phone showing the Huawei logo.
What has changed is that the Huawei eRecovery has reappeared. Vol Up + Power makes Huawei eRecovery start.
Vol Down + Power starts the 'FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE' screen as per the pic I attached in the first post.
Any more ideas???
Thanks.

I am having the exact same problem. Initially when I flashed twrp with fastboot I was getting a

error however this seems to have righted itself and it looks to have flashed succesfully however when I try to boot into recovery I only get as far as the Huawei screen. I can reboot the phone and still use it so am not in a boot loop.

Are you actually in Dublin? I am, with a Three locked Mate S. Perhaps Three did some extra security stuff???

Rhymes with anchors, starts with W!
OMG it works for me !
I downloaded the entire firmware with erecovery this night (by pressing power and volume up while the phone is plugged on the computer), since i modified the phone to ul00, it took me the whole night (chinese server i guess). so this morning I rebooted my phone and type the usual command :
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Code:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img (or whatever is the name of your file)
Code:
fastboot reboot (my phone was still connected in usb, and i was pressing both volume up and volume done before press enter)
And voila !

Did you tried the method i've explained earlier ?

Same with me, tried your methods but it never goes into recovery just freezes at the Huawei logo.
I'm not a developer so I've no idea but is it possible that Three Ireland could have added more security to the Mate S? Seems like a lot of trouble to go to.

After you installed and tried to reboot, it usually says something like " Root is not installed. Do you want to install?"
What option did you chose there?

Did you leave the USB cable plugged in while you were rebooting the phone and keep pushing both volume up and down ?

Tried it both ways.
I'm having the same problem, but if you search for even a copy of the software online to try and extract the recovery.img to re-flash the same one, you can't find the same build.
It's infuriating.
Edit: I don't know if any of you have tried to Factory reset from the settings menu, but it won't let you do it now either, so if we were to return the phone to three then you will be sending it off with all of your data on it.

I wouldn't have bought the phone if I knew this was going to be such a pain!
Yeah, I tried a reset and the phone just hangs on the Huawei logo.
However I'm sure there's a genius out there that's gonna work this out!!!

Hi,
I was trying to install Linage OS 14 on my H9L and I got it installed fine. I then tried flashing TWRP with `fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img` I then did `fastboot reboot` and once back into Linage I rebooted into TWRP from the power menu. After this TWRP got stuck on the loading screen so I tried rebooting, the phone rebooted back into TWRP and got stuck again. I then tried getting into fastboot by plugging in the USB and holding the volume down, rebooted into TWRP still. I then managed to get out by holding the power button and the + and - volume buttons to get into eRecovery. I then tried to do reset by doing 'Install latest version over WiFi' which downloads then fails and now I can't boot up my phone and it just goes straight to eRecovery every time I boot it up. I can still get into fastboot and I've tried flashing recovery_ramdisk, ramdisk from both a system update zip and from a TWRP backup with also no luck. At this point I really just want to get back to stock.
If anyone can help I'd really really appreciate it and be forever grateful .
Thanks,
Jake

I also cannot flash TWRP anymore.
Power down phone, then plug a USB cable into PC then phone. Whilst plug Cale into phone press and hold volume up.
This should place you into Fastboot mode.
What does it say for FRP.
If it says that is locked that would be your issue of why you can not flash anything.

A small typo above from @hacktrix2006 , Vol Up will actually bring you to eRecovery.
Vol Down will bring you to fastboot mode.
@Sparkrite , nice catch that is what i ment. When i replied i was awake for at total of 1 minute so brain wasn't fully working right.
Hello,
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 SM-T810. I used the TWRP Application to flash a recovery image. I used the twrp-3.3.1-0-gts210vewifi.img from the TWRP website.
I switched off the tablet and used power + volume down + home to start in recovery mode but it get stuck on the logo screen. I used power + volume down + home again which made the tablet reboot normaly and launch android without problem. I did this several time and every time the recovery didn't start but i was able to boot android normaly.
Then instead of using the button combinaison to boot in recovery I used a application which provide a menu to choose the reboot mode. Since then, the tablet is unable to boot and stay stuck at the logo screen,the one with "Samsung galaxy tab 2 powered by Android", not the one with the animation. Doing power + volume down + home restart the tablet but it get stuck again.
My theory is that my recovery mode image is not usable and my android system is fine but that the "reboot into recovery" told the tablet to do next boot in recovery and this instruction will not be removed until it succeed.
I tried to let the battery get empty but when I pluged it again it was the same.
Does anyone know how to save this tablet?
Thanks for your help

Keep power + vol down + home held down. It may take several cycles to boot to download mode but it should eventually.
Just dont release any of the keys until download mode pops up.
By the way recovery is VOL up not down.

Thanks. I managed to get to the Download mode. I just needed to keep pressing one second more.
Now I am struggling with Heimdall. To flash the recovery, I follow the instruction on the LineageOS Wiki. I can't put the link because I am a new user.
I used zadig to replace the driver by WinUSB (v6.1.7600.16385) then I use the folllowing command but it always fail.
Code:
$ ./heimdall flash --RECOVERY ./recovery.img --no-reboot
Code:
Heimdall v1.4.0

Problem solved. I reinstalled the official samsung usb driver and I used Odin to flash the recovery image. Unfortunatly I can't post the links of the tutorial I used because I am a new user.
Hi All,
I"m reasonably experienced custom flasher but I appear to have stuffed up pretty badly this time. I was attempting to flash a 13 GSI rom and the tablet is in a boot loop. Holding the power button by itself doesn't power it off. The power button with either or both of volume up or down doesn't achieve anything. Any ideas please on how to break the loop?
I solved it so here it is if anyone else falls into the same trap.
I held down volume up & down at the same time and then plugged in the usb cable after the Samsung logo disappeared. I had to try a few times and then I had a landing screen. I then clicked on volume up and the tablet went into download mode. However flashing didn't work both in Odin & Heimdall with no meaningful message. I then noticed o the landing screen on the right side there was "dev_unsupported" and there was an option to long press volume up. This took me to another download screen without the "dev_unsupported". I tried flashing an oem with twrp built in and it failed at recovery.img with a message about not digitally signed. I then download the oem rom and it worked.
Thanks! That was very helpful.
Are you running the new Android 12 firmware (BVI6) on your Tab A8?
