How to root Huawei Mediapad M3 Lite 10 [BAH-L09] - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I bought a Huawei Mediapad M3 Lite 10 tablet last week. Its model number is BAH-L09. I am in desperate need of rooting this device. I have searched in google for quite a time. But no success. Please help me get this device rooted. I can provide further details of the tablet if required. Please help...

+1
maybe I will never ever buy Huawei Android devices again. There are no Devs - not even AOSP support.

This is a Qualcomm Nougat device. You can root using Magisk or a custom recovery. I'll be happy to help.
Do you have the firmware for this model? If not search for it and download first

I do not have the firmware, I looked for a full OTA update on MT and everywhere I could think of but I could not find it. Does Magisk require FW as a starting point? I'm not familiar with Magisk but will now look it up...

The reason you'll need the firmware is that you'll need either tock boot.img or recovery.img to root. You obtain them either from the firmware or by dumping your phone's firmware

I ordered an NCKpro box thinking that as advertised I would be able to read the stock firmware from the tablet since it has a QUALCOMM chipset. however after unlocking my device (success), and trying to put it in EDL mode it does not enumerate as a QUALCOMM device, so the NCK module looking for it doesn't work. It seems to enumerate as "android adapter PCUI (COM5)". I have sent multiple messages to the NCK forum but have gotten no response....seems like there is no support from that group and the documentation comes mostly from Hovetec. Amazing that there is no support for the product.
Have you had success trying to read stock ROM off of Huawei with NCK box?

I share your frustration with the limited info and support for the box, that's why we're trying to fill that void with our tutorials and videos.
I've been able to backup Qualcomm using NCK Pro Box as explained at https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-22362.html but not yet tried a Huawei Qualcomm . Ensure to see the video and install drivers as instructed (very important).
In EDL Mode, you should have something like Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 in device manager not android adapter PCUI (COM5) so its either you've not installed drivers correctly or are not in EDL mode.
Yours is MSM8940 , I believe NCK Pro box should support.
How are you booting in EDL? Using button combo or ADB / Fatboot?

Booting in EDL mode using ADB or button presses get me to the same Huawei screen. its orange type that says press the volume up button for 3 seconds to enter recovery mode, otherwise it does a normal boot. When pressing this button it goes into a recovery mode in which I saw in the device manager what I reported previously.... no QUALCOMM. Perhaps this newer tablet has some layer over the base QUALCOMM or it is something new altogether. Oddly the Huawei ultimate module wants to connect in service mode which is set by doing the keypad with the ()()xxx()() code, etc. The Huawei module seems to be able to communicate with the device, but there is no functionality there to download stuff. I can't believe that no one has figured this out or there is no stock images out there for this tablet, but I also found that Huawei pulled all the stock images and updates off the web for their products last September....
I am an expert at installing usb drivers, but perhaps the ones that are in the default enumeration need to be overridden? I tried that but there are 4 different device enumerations of which none are QUALCOMM what was shown in the thread.
Can you think of any other way of getting a stock rom for this?

Check the thread at https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/how-to-enter-qualcomm-mmc-storage-diag-t3253478
It talks about other backup options using QFIL (HDDRaw) or emmc raw tool. Also look at the Enter Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 part which talk of entering edl using eMMC software download (QPST) > Switch device to DLoad; or using EFS Pro - Qualcomm NV Tools > Change mode since adb, fastboot and button combo don't work.

Nexus 5 QPST/QDLoader Mode

So, messing around with kernels and stuff, I wound up with a bricked device (wouldn't turn on, no response to anything, etc [I did eventually manage to get it functional again through a combination of button mashing and praying])
However, when plugging it into my computer, it showed up as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader" which seemed interesting.
Searching the internet, I found several things. The QPST (Qualcomm Product Support Tool) Software suite, as well as other less useful links about the LGFlash tool, etc.
The programs also makes reference to debug and other modes, but there isn't a lot of documentation on the internet.
What I want to know is, is there a way to put the device back into the QDLoader or other QPST related modes so as to either update the firmware again, or just make backups for future use?
If there is, this seems like it would be a great tool for undoing any damage to the phone that isn't hardware related (the documentation says this part resides on a read only chip[which it seems fastboot doesn't])
It looked like you borked your phone to the point where there was nothing recognizable as Android left on it. I don't know anything about this loader but based on my past experiences dealing with proprietary OEM tools (Samsung KIES), I hope I never find myself in a situation where I'd need to learn. :crying:
Turn off your phone. Press all the keys if nothing happens your phone bricked. If you end up qualcomm 9008 mode we cant do much, because we dont have a working flash programmer and a working bootloader which would be flashed to the phone with the flash programmer. You can do 2 things. Replace your motherboard, or find the emmc pins on the motherboard to get direct acces to the storage then with a modified sdcard reader you could have access to the storage content then you could restore the bootloader. This is pretty hard method almost impossible.
If you have qualcomm 9006 mode then you can restore the bootloader with any kind of linux, because in 9006 mode the phone acts like a external hdd.
May I ask how exactly you messed around with the kernels to get this? Did you flash an incompatible kernel or something?
It sounded like he resolved his issue and wanted to know if this hidden mode can be used.

to enter qload mode you have to turn on the phone then press everykey at the same time until the screen turns off
It works!

Thank you! This works!
It still only puts it in download mode, not the diagnostics or anything else. Although.. That may just be a project for when there's better documentation, or I don't actually need this phone for normal use...

To achive diagnostic mode you need a working flash progfammer and bootloader which can be loaded with flash programmer. We will never have these files unless someone at qualcomm build it for nexus 5 then share it here on xda.
With LG G2 if something goes wrong during ota update the phone starts in qualcomm 9006 diagnostic mode.
Well darn

Ah, darn. I suppose we can just hope though. Maybe someone with too much time will find a way to do it on their own. Oh well. Thank you!
I've never bricked my phones that bad man when I was a noob I installed safestrap on a device with an unlocked boot loader and tried to flash a ROM it didn't work out to well,man that was about two years ago

There were two placed where qualcomm documentatiosn could be found. One was a chinese forum where you have to be veteran or admin to get access to the files. This forum not exist anymore. The other is a chinese ebay like website where they are selling qualcomm documents for 3000 usd.
If you search for msm8974 boot flow or sahara protocol you will find file names for qualcomm pdf documents. Sadly just file names no download possibilty.

2.0.4DJB TCL 10 Pro Firmware Update

This is an untouched copy of the recent update for our devices. It has no file extension from TCL, but I'll leave info on how to download the firmware originally below, with it mirrored to Android File Host. Can just open this file like a Zip file
Original Link from TCL grabbed with LogCat
Code:

I have tried patching the Boot.img.p with Magisk, but it doesn't recognize the file format. Renamed it to just boot.img, still won't patch

Completely new to this phone. Nice grab! I was able to use your download and 7z zip to extract boot.img from boot.img.p.
I tried to put this file into magisk but no luck.
Have you been able to unlock the bootloader yet?
I tried the fastboot OEM unlock and fastboot flashing unlock when in bootloader mode but it doesn't work.
With someone else's help I was able to locate where the boot.img is located on the phone but unable to extract it.
/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot
Backup boot.img via terminal one-line command
I am trying to make an image backup of boot. The script must work on any android. I think on any Android the boot location is /dev/block/platform/???/by-name/boot My command line find /dev/block/

I did the same thing you probably did to attempt to patch it with Magisk, no luck. I haven't had the time to try further recently. Enabling OEM Unlock and attempting to unlock the bootloader just leads to needing an unlock code, much like bootloader unlocking a Moto device.
I contacted TCL support a long time back when I first got the phone and they were 100% not willing to help with any USA based TCL 10 Pro unlocking. The customer service worker literally said they weren't allowed to help with US based devices. There's no downloads anywhere for the firmware either, which I think goes against Google's agreement to android on a device, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Android 11 for the TCL 10L has been being pushed in italy. This a large file about 2 to 3 GB. I really hope when we see it on our phones you are able to pull the link from logcat as well. This should be the entire rom. All we have now is OTA patch files. I've tried so many things. I have all drivers fully working even the Qualcomm 9008 Diagnostic driver. I can put the phone into EDL mode.
To put phone into EDL mode you need usb debugging enabled and type in secret code into the dialer *#*#3424#*#* which enables the diagnostic port via toast notification. Then turn phone off, hold both volume up and volume down and plug phone into PC. You will be prompted with the Download mode screen. Hold volume up to enter EDL.
There are ways to backup in EDL mode, I'm just not well versed in commands.

I'm wondering if I can pull some social engineering off, maybe be like "Hey my phone reset itself, can't boot it, but I read online something for a samsung phone called Odin and Fastboot and such? Some how you can install the system that way?" See what they say/link me to

I'll check it out. If its possible to view the code in a tool like dnSpy or extract files from the exe with 7zip, its possible to use with our device, i'm sure as long as the commands are similar
Well you're in luck as it is just a .bat file program simple notepad++ will do.

Have had the phone for less than 6 months and I'm already having LCD issues. When the display is off, just sitting on a table or something, it'll flash white randomly like its getting an electric signal at random. Its nothing I did. I've never hard dropped the thing. Everywhere I go pretty much is carpeted except work. If manufacturer warranty doesn't cover me, I'll stop recommending the phone to people
I actually switched to an Essential Phone recently. Way better experience, way cheaper too. I have around a dozen of them anyway and have been selling em on swappa (dunno if I'm allowed to say that here, but oh well) lol

Question HELP! Stuck in BOOTLOOP [Tecno Spark 5 pro], cant access safe mode or fast boot mode

Tried to root Tecno Spark 5 pro (KD7) with magisk and after unlocking bootloader everything was working smoothly until i rebooted with the patched magisk image and now its stuck in bootloop.
Pressing power button and volume up to access boot menu doesn't work nor does connecting it to pc and trying to use adb shell.
I thought maybe the solution would be to try to let it run our of battery and try again but that will take a hell of a long time.
PLEASE!!! If there is any help or suggestions just let me know. Its a brand new phone as well ****

Hint: Add Tecno Spark 5 pro (KD7) to this thread's title thus mainly owners of such device get addressed.
can you access fastboot?
no it just keeps looping back to the android start and turns off:
it displays:
orange state
your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted
your device will boot in 5 seconds
then it turns off and repeats

This tutorial linked here fixed mine (also tecno spark 5 pro, mediatek 6765). my phone was also in orange state bootloop. exactly as you describe.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/repair-dead-hard-bricked-realme-3-3i-tutorial.4224255/
i had to slightly modify the instructions to suit the spark 5 pro. the only necessary changes are this
uninstall all usb vcom drivers you may have previously installed
FOLLOW THE TUTORIAL TILL YOU GET to where you have to download the bypass utility and exploits collection. please download the one with the mega link (ie Bypass utility compiled)
CONTINUE WITH THE TUTORIAL TILL YOU GET TO FLASHING FIRMWARE. here too my method deviated from the tutorial. even though my phone was detected as com9 by the bypass uility, i could not choose it in UART mode in sp flash tools. So just use usb mode in sp flash tools and it would still work.
CONTINUE WITH THE TUTORIAL. no need to load an authentication file. just load the scatter file and use "Download only" method
if you do this well your phone will be revived!

FOLLOW THE TUTORIAL TILL YOU GET to where you have to download the bypass utility and exploits collection. please download the one with the mega link (ie Bypass utility compiled)
CONTINUE WITH THE TUTORIAL TILL YOU GET TO FLASHING FIRMWARE. here too my method deviated from the tutorial. even though my phone was detected as com9 by the bypass uility, i could not choose it in UART mode in sp flash tools. So just use usb mode in sp flash tools and it would still work.
CONTINUE WITH THE TUTORIAL. no need to load an authentication file. just load the scatter file and use "Download only" method
if you do this well your phone will be revive

The phone doesn't need to be completely off. allow it to bootloop.
Just follow the process in the tutorial linked to and you should
be fine.
by the way am assuming your bootloader is already unlocked.
please send the link to download the auth file good sir

what smartphone are you using?
what is the operating system of your computer? windows or linux?
so far what have you done?
if you are using a spark 5 pro, you don' t need an auth file. I revived mine without an auth file.
I looks like i would have to write a detailed step-by-step guide on how it worked for me
i followed the steps to the letter but gives me errors everytime
if you found mediatek driver for mt67xx or the one you used can you send me please,i've searched for it and keep finding for mt65xx

Tried to root Tecno Spark 5 pro (KD7) with magisk and after unlocking bootloader everything was working smoothly until i rebooted with the patched magisk image and now its stuck in bootloop.
Pressing power button and volume up to access boot menu doesn't work nor does connecting it to pc and trying to use adb shell.
I thought maybe the solution would be to try to let it run our of battery and try again but that will take a hell of a long time.
PLEASE!!! If there is any help or suggestions just let me know. Its a brand new phone as well ****

LG W41 (LM-K610IM) dead bricked by my stupidity. Could it be somehow revived?

Greetings everyone. I didn’t find a thread for this specific phone model. So I am putting it up here. Few days back I decided to unlock the bootloader of my LG W41 (LM-K610IM) and upgrade to a custom ROM. So, I used fastboot mode to unlock the bootloader and up until now everything went like a dream. Problems started when I couldn't get a TWRP recovery for my specific model. I downloaded a generic one and first tried to push it to my recovery partition. That's when I learned my phone doesn't have a recovery partition. I don't know what came to me then I used fastboot flash command to flash the TWRP image to my boot partition. It was successful but my phone won't start after that. It was a softbrick. Only the LG logo started bootlooping. But the worse was still not over. In an attempt to restore my device I searched everywhere for the stock ROM as the official website is down, but couldn't find any. At last, I zeroed in on a similar device by the same manufacturer LG K52. It had the ditto hardware like LG W41. Even the model number was similar. So, I downloaded the KDZ file. Extracted the dz from the kdz and the boot.img from the dz using LG KDZ extractor . Made a scatter file using a Hovatek instruction and using WWR MTK tool and formatted my device using SP flash tool and flashed everything. Till now my device was detected by the Windows 11 PC as a LGE device. Anyways the SP tool successfully flashed everything but after that my won't turn on any more. It's total dead. It won't power on, pc won't recognize it. I have tried connecting using USB and all possible hardware key combinations. It is dead bricked I think. All because of my stupidity. Now my question is, does it have any hope left or should I throw it away and buy a new device? I am keeping my fingers crossed and hope to find a superhero
Edit 1: SP Flash tool doesn't see my device any more. I have all the specific drivers installed. From LG and from Mediatek.
Try LG Bridge or check lg-firmwares.com
or
buy/borrow second device and 1:1 clone with mtkclient
Thanks for the quick response, but I have already tried LG Bridge, LGUP . After soft brick LGUP was seeing device as "unknown at COM Port 9". After hard brick it doesn't see it any more. Actually my PC won't see the device anymore
The firmware is not available at LG-firmwares.com but I have requested for it there. Keeping fingers
you should be able to repair preloader from bootrom mode (BROM)

To put your device in BRom mode you may need a different key combination or a test point, find out on the internet how to put the device in BRom mode or ask various devs of that device

Okay let me ask and I will follow up. Thank you for the amazing guidance. Let's see if the poor device could be saved
you should poll lsusb in linux while trying to connect usb with both vol keys pressed. disconnect battery from pcb if possible to ensure phone is off.

Hello,first thing i noticed is that msm tool finished with around 200 sec.i think that's not normal.I often use msm tool and every time finishes around over 300 sec.I see you have correct Qualcomm drivers.i'm not an expert but you must investigate a little bit more.good luck

Drivers are correct and I was flashing it with USB 3.0 port .
I would try older stock ROMs first. O+7pro have plenty of them regarding EDL/MSM mode.
Another thing are checksums. Try to check if your download was successfull by counting them from your side and by comparing what you have with provided download. It should match 1:1.

I have the old stock ROM which I flashed it in EDL but phone didn't boot when it is completed phone reboot too but not in normal mode in EDL again
Most often people have bad experience with qualcomm drivers. So make sure that you have some released after 2020 year, as oneplus 7 pro was released in 2020 year. Another issue is related to usb 3.x, better avoid that and try USB 2.0 instead, most of people have best results with older interface of that kind. EDL is kind of old solution, so better to stay away with USB 3.x and use USB 2.0.
Have you got any idea your flash is successful in edl tool? Have you got clean results or warnings/errors?
To be honest with you, I have to use EDL too, because I did wrong upgrade. I used custom ROM instead of stock ROM. Now I have not access to fastboot nor adb via USB either.
try different EDL ROMs, I found 2 threads. one is here, second there. As almost nobody anserws our questions, I will let you know what I did if I do it successfully.
Well, I discovered that I'm in pretty bad situation. In my case not only adb and fastboot does not works. It appears that EDL does not work either. Why? because I connected another oneplus phone over USB to PC and EDL mode was detected spot on. In case my o+7pro, well still same error as previously with adb/fastboot over USB. Something messed with USB on my phone at software side.
So I have to get motherboard get cheap. I do not thik that I can desolder flash or eMMC and revert that so easy.
Sorry Man, can not help you any
further. Turns out my issue is signifigantly other than yours.
