URGENT Help Needed!! Suspected Brick (B110 to B136) - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

Hi Guys,
So I got my Mate 9 (MHA-L29C636B110) today and i unlocked bootloader and rooted it so I can restore my backups using Titanium Backup.
After I flashed TWRP and rooted, the updater in settings shows new update available, so i tried to download the OTA (MHA-L29C636B136) and update it.
But it can't be updated maybe due to TWRP installed, so I tried the following:
1) Flash stock recovery through fastboot from B136 update.app (Failed to update as well)
2) Unroot with SuperSU (Failed as well)
3) Flash boot.img, recovery.img, system.img from B136 (Failed as well)
But now the phone reboots everytime I type my PIN to unlock phone. I still can drag notification bar, and access to torch light function on lockscreen etc.
I have full zip and OTA zip update.app extracted. But I'm not sure what is my next step.
Anyone able to advise how to revert back to B110 or update manually to B136?
Thanks in advance!!!

Flash the full zip in twrp,you will get some error but you should be ok

But I can't boot to TWRP even if fastboot shows it flashed successfully. Went to eRecovery all the time.
Also, I tried to flash the Full zip and OTA zip file with TWRP before I start trying to flash the img files seperately, they don't work...

To boot to twrp you have to hold vol up + power and release power when you see the logo while keeping volume up pressed.

Flashing stock B136 with FunkyHuawei might be your best bet. Assuming funkyhuawei stays alive, this phone is pretty much un-brickable.

I can only boot to TWRP for now, stuck in splash screen loop if boot normally, will funkyhuawei work?

You can find full firmware http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=mha
Once you flash the update.zip reboot to recovery and factory reset.

Yep. At the unlocked bootloader splash screen, hold the volume up button for 3 seconds to enter eRecovery. eRecovery downloads a stock build and flashes it automatically. Of course, you'll need to setup FunkyHuawei beforehand so that it'll download the version you want. (B136, etc)

OK I'm downloading it now. So I place the file in SD Card and flash using TWRP, then factory reset. Correct?
I am now having bootloops so I have to wipe system, data, cache, dalvik with TWRP before flash right?

No don't wipe everything,just flash the zip reboot to recovery and factory reset.

So I have to connect to the Wifi that has DNS modified right? Because I'm having 5% update error with eRecovery everytime...
I'll try gm007's method first, if fails I'll have to use FunkyHuawei....
Thanks a lot!!

Yep, set DNS on router then pick your version on the FunkyHuawei site. Sounds intimidating but it's really pretty simple.

I deleted my OS

Oh no! The curse of the NEWB. So after some amazing help, I managed to root my phone and install TWRP. YAY! Then what did I do, I wiped my OS by mistake. NOW I just have TWRP. I am not sure if can fix this. Can I?
Did you take a backup using TWRP first? If not you'll need to find a ROM to load via TWRP.
Are you sure that deleted OS or is your phone just booting always in TWRP?

You need to flash a andorid on it,
first you need to understand how it works....u have a recovery as a base, so you can reach the components you want....
then you have the OS f.e. Android, this is missing on your phone.
All we need is a zip flashable ROM.
So on TWRP we can't use the dload method, so we need a OS in .zip format to flash it with TWRP.
Link above go in TWRP flash zip choose zip from ext. SD card
btw i have the same problem...
thought a wipe would be good...

Do NOT do this. If you do this it will remove any chance of recovering, BUT if you know how to replace TWRP with the Stock Revovery, then skip this, because you obviously know what you are doing. All you need to do it download any ROM.zip made for your phone, onto a computer. Then move that ROM.zip to a micro SD (TF) card and insert that into your phone. boot into recovery and flash that ROM.ZIP. If you are having trouble still, charge your phone completely while off,then do a complete wipe and flash the ROM.zip again. Iif that doesn't work, wipe (factory reset, not system wipe) then your phone should boot properly.
Hey be thanks full !
you can install a custom Rom (cyanogenmod or etc) and boot your phone and then go to setting and enable USB debugging and reboot your phone to boot loader by ADB and install stock recovery and then try to install OTA updates.
if you found any Method for deleted OS and how to reinstall OS with stock recovery about P8 lite e-mail me !!
sorry for bad english.!

US Honor 6x Unable to Boot TWRP Backup of Stock EMUI 5.0 (Help)

Hello there, I've been trying to return to stock EMUI after messing around with some AOSP-based ROMs, but my US model Honor 6x is unable to boot up the TWRP backup of it. And the dload method is unsuccessful, as it just says the firmware is incompatible with my device. Does anyone know a way to return back to stock EMUI and make my device as it was coming out of the factory?

I believe it's the BLN-L24C567, since I have the US model of the Honor 6x.

I still have TWRP and the backup of my original software, but it won't boot up. It just goes into a boot loop. I don't know what proper steps to take in order to get the software to boot up again.

Ok, download this two zips and try flash via twrp. First small zip, right after big one. After go to reboot and make reboot recovery, now you will be in stock recovery and here tap factory reset, after normal reboot and should boot to rom

The update.zip (the bigger one) ended with "ERROR: 7" I'm not sure if this should have happened or not. Any idea?
Rommco05 said:
Try format data after reboot twrp and again format data now try flash zips.
If this doesn't help, u need this one:
-download Huawei Extractor from xda
-unzip big zip and extract from update.app, recovery.img
-flash recovery.img over fastboot (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
-now make update over dload method
(unzip both files and separately put to dload folder on sdcard, first big second small, but must be unzipped)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Okay, one more question: For the dload method, do I have both ZIPs in the dload folder and flash it at the same time, or do I flash one ZIP at a time in the stock recovery?
Rommco05 said:
Yes u need install both zips, becasue big one is system and small are apps. Flash stock recovery and after install big one (unzipped) after reboot (if phone boot to rom immediately turn him off) and install second one, same like first

My phone is currently installing the first UPDATE.app. Once I go back into the recovery, will my phone know to install UPDATE.APP(1) (the smaller one)? Or will there be a way to select the file? How exactly does it work?

No you need deleted first one from dload and put in second one (small)

Sorry to keep asking questions, but how should I turn off the device once the first UPDATE.APP installs? It keeps trying to boot up.

Thanks for those edits; I was a bit confused. Thank you for all your help; I'll update you if it works or not. Have a nice night.
I just wanted to leave a reply to let others know what I did:
1. Flashed stock recovery from the big update.zip file (I used the Huawei extractor to get it from the file)
2. Unzipped the big and little zip files
3. Made a folder called dload
4. Put the unzipped contents of the big zip in the dload folder
5. Held power and volume up + down buttons until it installed the big update file
6. I went into the recovery by holding volume up and power
7. I removed the SD card and deleted the contents of the big update and inserted the little update to the dload folder
8. I rebooted and used the same dload method to install the contents of the little update file
9. I went back into the recovery (power and volume up) and did a factory reset
10. I rebooted and everything worked!
11. Installed the intermediate package first and then the official 6.0 software through the dload method
12. Upgraded back to Nougat via the Marshmallow build

The only unfortunate thing was that I received a Nougat beta built, but I think I'll be able to find a finalized version online.

Are you sure you're using the rollback package before? You can download it from honor official website, then you move the firmware file in a dload folder on your sdcard. Boot up using both + and - buttons and the power button in the same time and the phone will force the flashing of the rollback ( package needed to go back from android 7 to android 6) file. Then you have to download the android 6 firmware for your device from the honor official website again and flash it with the same process of the rollback package. If you can't undestand i can try to explain it in italian

Just flash the stock recovery there in fastboot. And reboot. Shutdown the phone and use dload method
Basically you missed one thing before restoring stock backup. You should have performed a full factory reset using the second recovery and then restored your TWRP backup.
Your device being stuck on Honor screen is because you forgot to enable encryption (that is done by performing a factory wipe through second recovery).

Follow my guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-flashing-unapproved-firmwares-t3668306
Before you do it, flash stock Nougat recovery (if you were on EMUI 5) and perform a factory reset. Then flash TWRP again through Fastboot.
Use the TWRP method since you are unable to boot to EMUI. Chose any firmware you want, whether it be Marshmallow or Nougat.

Are you following the steps exactly as mentioned?
You need to flash TWRP first then setup your device to install the firmware. Read the TWRP section again and follow it exactly as mentioned.
Nothing to worry about that Fastboot status. It is normal.

Damn. I forgot you could simply flash files from Fastboot.
In the future only flash system, cust, vendor, boot and recovery. Do not attempt to flash any other file.
Still, if you want to update to the latest OTA, my guide is always there to help you out.

Unbricking Mate 9 and go stock(Soft Bricked)

I know, i know there's plenty of resources over the net already and I already spent 10+ hrs on this.
I bricked my phone when SuperSU prompts me to install su binary. And it got me into bootloop.
Tried https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108 but failed at 61%
Tried the backup oem file method but TWRP kept saying permission denied when trying to backup
Couldn't find a way to import dload+Update.app file into internal storage without actually booting up the phone first. I didn't knew the exact directory for internal storage so I couldn't copy it from OTG
Bootloader Unlocked, Rooted(before recovery), using TWRP.
I wanna go back to clean stock firmware
Any helps would be appreciated.
ADDED: ITS ORIGINALLY OREO
Any luck? I have the same problem here ..
Still have unlocked bootloader & know the firmware version you were on?
Right. Go to Firmware Finder. Download the FullOTA version of it.
Get one of the firmware extractor utilities. You're going to want SYSTEM, KERNEL, RAMDISK, and RECOVERY_RAMDISK (or RECOVERY_RAMDIS, depending on the extractor).
Get into fastboot mode.
Flash those 4 items to the partitions named the same.
Reboot into recovery - you're now in an EMUI recovery. Factory reset.
Reboot.
You should be back to stock with an unlocked bootloader. If you've gone poking around with root or whatnot and might have modified one of the other partitions, don't relock your device - it won't boot. Instead, hwota8 or a NoCheck stock recovery are probably the way you'd want to go. (To be honest, I haven't used either. If I want to get back to full stock knowing it's not modified, I usually do a downgrade flash to Nougat through HiSuite and then upgrade again.)

Try this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
And use this TWRP with it (won't work otherwise, most likely): https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3783353
(Also, that TWRP has decryption support so you can backup /data.)
Search and download your fw from http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/
You'll want Update.zip, update_data_full_public.zip and the hw data zip. (Make sure it's actually for your phone, e.g. check region cust)
Rename update_data_full_public.zip to update_data_public.zip, rename hw data zip to update_all_hw.zip.
Put update zips and HuRupdater zip in the same folder on your sdcard/internal memory, flash HuRupdater with TWRP.
i have a question, im on mha l29 dual sim version with stock oreo magisk and twrp (368 update) how can i revert back to clean oreo? so i can get the updates normally. thanks !!

that recovery wont work for me, only work twrp from pretoriano80 3.2.1-0, i got a mate 9 MHA-L29 dual sim...
edit:
well aparently theres 2, i dont get it, but when the recovery boot and show the logo of pretoriano, that version doesnt works, but when boot and show the classic twrp logo with pretoriano80 letters in red works...
so, if you flash recovery with fastboot and reboot recovery for the first time doesnt works, but if you reboot in recovery from twrp will show another version ...???? and works. sorry for my english

That is weird, considering that he only made one TWRP for Mate 9

Phone won't boot and can't do much from TWRP

Hi !
I installed TWRP to root my honor view 10 3/4 weeks ago.
Today I installed an update. And since then, the phone won't boot past TWRP (which I can access) or Huawei eRecovery mode.
When I land in the eRecovery mode it offers me to shutdown, reboot, or connect to wifi and do a factory reset. When I attempt the factory reset it tells me that downloading package info failed.
I tried to do a reset from TWRP without success gives me ERROR 9. I also tired to install the stock rom (update.zip) from TWRP and I also get ERROR 9.
I'm a complete noob when it comes to phones. Anyone have an idea of a solution ?
Thank you for reading !

Whats your model, if it is L09 then get the stock ramdisk image from magisk thread in development section and also search for recovery image. Flash it via fastboot and boot normally.
Never ever try ota on rooted phone.

When I try to boot the phone it displays the message that the phone in unlocked and should no be trusted, it shows the honor booting screen and after a few seconds shuts down and the process is repeating.
If i try to press the volume up key when booting it takes me to huawei eRecovery where I can either shutdown the phone or download recovery but it fails everytime.
Thanks
Try flash the No check recovery, boot into and wipe cache. Then reboot
Powered by View 10
Try this
1. Flash stock ramdisk img
2. Flash stock recovery img
3. Reboot to recovery with button combination ie; power and vol down together
4. Wipe data and cache
5. Reboot.
Hopefully it'll work if it doesn't flash system.img after 1 & 2 steps and follow the next steps
Hi please specify model
And what update you installed...
If the update was genuinely meant for phone I believe a data and cache partation format should fix this..
I hope you are atleast seeing the honor bootscreen...
Specify model so that we could point you to correct system.img
Also did twrp gave any errors formatting cache memory?
same here
BKL-L09
