I installed GLtools and after completing, the screen stuck and it is always on (never sleeps or dims display). None of the buttons work. I waited till it used up all battery and then charged to 5% to turn on again. When I turn on, I see my launcher still the same (and the phone launcher desktopsetup pretty intact), but after a few seconds, screen stuck again, buttons not working again.
Is there a way to remove/uninstall GLtools through PC or whatever means to fix this?
Please help.
Did you flash it in stock recovery or TWRP?
Also next time you need to forcibly switch the phone off, do it by either holding the power button for 10secs, or all three button for 10secs (not sure which it is on the R9+), it's a lot quicker than trying to flatten the battery!

I did not flash anything. It was in stock rom. Is there still a way to fix this (remove GLtools)? Is the GLtools running in background that's why I was still able to unlock my phone and use my phone for a few secs before screen hang again?
EDIT:
I got it to work long enough to uninstall GLtools but there is this loading bar that appears even after I had removed GLtools,

Is this from the phone? or from my root app?
My phone screen still hungs now. I think it's not GLtools issue.
That bar is a ColorOS thing that it does while your system is updating.
Can you re-flash the stock ROM?

So I learned how to force close the phone from you (hold power button for 10 secs), then I turned it on normally, it worked fine as normal. I tried rooting with KingRoot and it rooted, tried to install Xposed Framework thru a method found in youtube because I don't have TWRP (method uses BusyBox Pro, Terminal Emulator to flash the zip). But Xposed modules download button don't download (button goes back to idle when I tap "download").
I also tried Lucky Patcher and other similar apps to convert or move user app to system app, after reboot, the converted app is gone (deleted). This bar also keeps appearing after I did this.
That bar keeps appearing and freezes the screen (whatever the screen is currently showing) both during and after the progress bar finishes. Tried to force close and turn it on again. Stuck on Oppo screen for 8+ hours (left it as is, I went to sleep). Decided to flash the stock rom (power + vol down) without wiping data. Worked and returned to normal desktop launcher setup but phone goes back to unrooted. Xposed Framework is gone too.
Is this bar meant to check if I am doing changes to the system like root, Xposed, converting user app to system app and prevent me from doing those? I really need those things on my phone! :crying:
the bar is just when ColorOS is updating itself or generally making changes. Presumably it doesn't like something you did.
I'd probably leave off GLTools and just go with KingRoot and Xposed. They both worked on my old R9. I think the latest version of the Xposed APK has the ability to install the framework itself, so maybe try that method?
ColorOS is heavily modified from stock android, so a lot of mods for it simply don't work, unfortunately.

why did the download button of Xposed not work when I tap on it? it does nothing for me.
Which Xposed should I get? I saw 2 APKs, a 3.0 and 3.1.1 alpha 4.
I was actually rebooting after I checked XMultiWindow module in Xposed when it got into bootloop
Get 3.11a4

So I did a temporary root on my phone using Weak Sauce 2 and installed xposed framework. After a soft reboot everything seemed to be working fine. Then I installed flat style bar, tweaked it and soft rebooted again. Worked fine. Now I try to install gravity box for jelly bean, when I try and open gravity box it says framework for gravity box not installed. This was probably my mistake here but I thought that that meant I needed to enable it in xposed then soft reboot. SO I enabled it in xposed and soft rebooted it and now my phone won't turn back on. I was charging it at the time and the red led was showing after I unplugged it the red led still shows. It also makes this fuzzy noise every 5 seconds or so like fft ftt (5 seconds) fft ftt and so on. Did I hard brick my device?
Bad idea installing xposed with temp root mate and no safe recovery, also the J/B gravity box for K/K was also not a good idea. You can not make any safe changes to any framework within the phone. Can you get the phone to recognize ADB? If so, i would try RUU man. Good luck!
I'm trying to root the phone for a few days but I can't get to the fastboot or something.
What do I have to do to get into fastboot other boot? Holding down the Volume down and Power for a few seconds?
And if do do Vol down and up and Power all at once, I get a screen with the Android doll and a msg Phone locked.
What does that mean?
And if do another combination of keypresses, the phone is is saying: Huawei software installing
It also keeps stuck at 90%.
It takes long to install something. It's a DAV-703L and I am on update B028.
EDIT
I finally got it working and it's unlocked. I installed SuperSU and rebooted it. And what is this:

I wanted to install and open Titanium Backup but it says it's not rooted.
EDIT
Man, this was one hell of searching and doing research all day. All why it was not working was because of the wrong version of SuperSu, namely BETA 2.49
because it was chinese. It's finally rooted but it keeps booting into TWRP now.
You have to flash the original recovery, this will fix the bootloop!

Ok, will I lose the root?
EDIT
Never have been learning and playing so intensive with this phablet. For now it booted normal and seems have the root still on.
Anyone can explain how to remove the Huawei bloatware? I have Titanium Backup but can't find to remove the those annoying apps.
EDIT2
Seems I have to write down the annoying bloatware apps name and have the options to backup, freez and delete.
Ok, so rooting have benefits... Awesome, and also got rid of no more whatsapp notif because of Phone Manager.
Alright, one last question. If I want to restore the phone to its factory settings, will it be restored in its original state?
Like after leaving the factory?
bootloader unlocked
MIUI 9.5.19 global ROM installed
Magisk 16.4
Have been using the phone for 2 weeks now it's the second time that the phone shut down because of battery to low. OK so far but it then only is booting into TWRP. Also deleting DALVIK and CACHE i can see it booting and then the black screen with the navigation arrows are visible for a second. It's seems that there is something preventing the system to come up properly. After 5 short attempts with black screen and navigationbar visible it boots into TWRP.
Also re-flashing Magisk is not solving it.
OK I could now re-flash the Global ROM again but it won't fix the general issue why the phone get's stuck once it shuts off because of empty battery and again I would loose all my data.
Anyone with ideas how to fix it or what could be the root cause?
EDIT: It seems that there is really a problem with the system itself. If I instantly hold the power button once booted until the black screen I could keep it running and I see the restart, shutdown, airplane buttons but nothing more.
In Windows I would say it's not starting the explorer.exe
anyone who had something similar?
Have you tried re-flashing with MiFlash?
Bootloop after weeks of normal use is pretty misleading considering that you are using a custom recovery that isn't even official plus Magisk and possibly other mods. You should flash the official stable ROM with the MI Flash Tool and then run the phone without any mods to see if you still experience the same problem. And if you decide to use TWRP again you are better off using it through fastboot so the stock recovery remains installed on the phone.
THx for your replies... I think I've figured it out:
It seems that the alternative launcher is the root cause. I've been using Microsoft Launcher since moths across all my devices (light+fast+sexy). Without it (replaced by Nova now) it seems that the problems are fixed
<Mod edit: THREAD CLOSED on request of OP>
Sorry... I didn't realize there was a power button plus up volume key combination. That rebooted my phone. There is no crisis. Moderator can delete this
I am little spooked. .I think I have tried everything but my phone seems dead.
First, I have a TMOUS OP7 Pro which I converted to international and was running 9.5.13.GM21AA. I have been using the phone without problems for several days.
The phone is rooted with Magisk and I had a few modules installed including Rira-Core and Rira-EdXposed (SandHook). However, I had not installed the Xposed Installer apk.
The last thing I did before I rebooted was install the Xposed Manager apk. I read that this app was a better option than the Xposed Installer apk. I did not think I was risking anything because I had installed this same app before. without problems (but if memory serves I had first installed the Xposed Installer apk, downloaded some xposed modules, then uninstalled the installer apk and installed the Xposed Manager apk). This time I just installed the Xposed Manager apk.
I previously messed something up about 4 days ago. I am not sure what I did at that time, when I tried rebooting it strangely hung at the "Unlocked Bootloader" screen. However, I was able to get to the booloader screen. Since I had a backup, I just did a flashboot boot twrp.img using the SDK tools and restored it. The difference though was that I was able to get to the bootloader screen. Now I cannot seem to get anything. Screen is just black. I simply rebooted it and it went black. No unlocked bootloader screen, just black.
I have tried holding the power button and down volume button simultaneously, but nothing happens.
As said, I am very spooked and worried. Does anyone have any suggestions.?
THank you in advance.

So summary
OOS 9
Magisk 19
Disabled I think is quickswitcher module
Now I just get animation going forever on booting, if I leave it long enough about 20 minutes or so, it reboots itself and goes back to loop.
TWRP is accessible.
I tried MM recovery tool in core only mode but still doesnt boot.
Ideally I need a solution that doesnt involve a factory reset.
Ok the core only mode didnt stick I think, so did it again and the phone is booted.
With no phone app , completely gone off the phone.
It shuts down after about 20 seconds after booting up.
Backing up what I can over USB from TWRP, and this might force me to migrate to my Oneplus 8 pro which has been sitting in its box, but I will still appreciate any input on how to get this running again without a reset so I can properly migrate app settings etc even if its losing magisk.
I managed to keep the phone bpoooted up for ages, and have done things like titanium backups, app setting backups etc.
I then tried to reinstall the phone app from the play store but got a vague "cannot install phone from google".
But at least now I can access settings etc. Take screenshots of settings also. So better baseline for the new phone.
Pretty crazy how all this broke so easily though.
So I dont know how this happened but I managed to recover the phone.
The xXx rom magisk module got wiped when I deactivated the recents module, this removed the google dialer framework and some build.prop changes the rom module puts on the phone.
I initially just added the framework magisk module which allowed the google phone app to reinstall, all my call logs were intact. But the phone was still unstable on booting so had to reinstall xXx which seems to have fixed that, albeit now with added lag.
But I have backed up everything now anyway so will migrate to my newer phone its long overdue, but this post is here now in case anyone else has the same issue.
