Some context:
My MHA-L29C432B138 with TWRP got an OTA update on the phone itself, and I wanted to update (it wanted me to update to B182).
Since I had TWRP replacing the stock recovery I could not flash it through the normal way, so I went ahead to replace TWRP with the stock recovery so I could update.
I was unable to flash the stock recovery since I had no access to flashing in fastboot (FRP Lock, PHONE Unlocked, OEM unlocking option greyed out in developer settings), so I attempted to relock so I could unlock again, hoping that would solve my issue (fastboot oem relock KEY).
By doing this my phone went into a reset, now I'm stuck at FRP Lock, PHONE Relocked, and I can only access the bootloader and eRecovery.
eRecovery is attempting to download updates but fails every time, and I can't use HiSuite to do a system recovery neither (says my device is not supported).
So this is where I'm stuck, any help would be nice!

Try to unlock after this.
This does low-level format.
My device: Mate 9 supersu B190 Mediapad X2 GEM 701->703 B212 KangVIP (AJ mod)
Everything in fastboot (flashing, locking, unlocking) was unavailable, eRecovery was not working, HiSuite said my device was not supported, and dload didn't work neither (tried 3 different firmware versions).
After spending 1-2 hours on Telegram with others I ended up using funkyhuawei with eRecovery, only thing that worked for me.
Last time I buy a Huawei device for sure, their own services don't even work (eRecovery, HiSuite).

As I said here, for your case the patched HiSuite method would have worked. But it's too late now, you paid, I was in holidays.. I know it's a shame that HiSuite says unsupported or erecovery not working but you could have made your phone compatible by writing some text in a file and using Lucx's script instead of paying funkyhuawei, their service never worked for me.

I could fix my phone flashing a factory firmware using DC Phoenix (Yes, I have to pay).
I Flash MHA-AL00 first, then I use eRecovery to install the latest stock firmware and finally HCU Client to repair the empty board (IMEI, S/N, MAC, etc).
I had the same then suddenly it is hardbricked no charging no nothing . It was a 1 month old phone. I didnt do anything other than downloading a c636 oreo and i was c185. But i received it trough the system update using firmware finder and even it authenticated itself. Even installed it with no problem. Then suddenly it broke and after soft brick became hard brick nothing. Now it in service centre i hope they can fix it. It is under warranty. pray for me

i rebranded my FRD-L19C900B141 to FRD-L19 with the help of re branding guide. i was then able to receive update of 1.3 GB which was apparently a mistake to do. i updated , it went smoothly but then now i'm missing Update Option and feature like smart key. i tried to flash recovery now, and it says remote command cannot be executed. i have frp and phone both unlocked and fastboot and adb both are detecting the device. Please Help

yes , U did a mistake after re-brand you had to receive the 2.2 GB update , this occurs because you didn't dload the official firmware of EMUI 4.1 after re-brand .and currently your build number will be in NRDM test keys . you wont receive any update , lacks of lot of feature , phone hangs a lot and drains .
So, do a thing just rollback to mash-mellow EMUI 4.1 FRD-L19C432B131 and from there make sure you are getting the update more than 2 GB ,if not just dload again the official firmware of B131 and again reset and see this time you will definitely get the right package .
INSTALL and enjoy.

Well , the reason I was not able to flash again with error , remote command not allowed was somehow the phones bootloader was not unlocked when it was showing unlocked. So unlocked the bootloader again and flashed the recovery.
About all the features , I had to reset the firmware from with in the settings , it deleted the os. So then I went to recovery and flashed official FRD-L19C432B131 and then I got the update of 2.4 GB in update update app, 2.4 GB is the correct one, not the 1.4 or 3.4. after updating I'm quite happy now. :laugh:
Ive been at this for 3 days straaaiiighhhtttt trying to figure out how to either:
Relock My bootloader
--OR--
Disable FRP
my mate 9 was bought last week, and i want to root it. my bootloader status is showing unlocked but the FRP is showing as locked. in Dev settings the OEM option is grayed out probably from the previous user doing a factory reset.
ive been skimming through this whollle forum, ive seen people say use "fastboot oem relock", " SRKToolHuawei-Lod-Chong-V2.0", "fastboot oem google unlock", or "flash the stock firmware"
In all my life of android rooting, ive never been so confused.
I just need someone to tell me how Im able to either relock my bootloader so I can unlock it again and remove the frp or disable the frp in its current locked state.
the fastboot oem commands dont work, and yes ive tried it with my unlock pw, i tried the SRK tool and that doesnt work either, i keep getting that status failed error. Ive seen people who have had success. so im sure SOMEONE knows how to get me where i need to be lol Please HALP!
Mate 9 (Not the pro) MHA-L29
Try: remove current pin, fingerprints, Google account. Reboot. Check if you can enable oem unlocking now in Dev settings.

Hmm. Actually, you did use the command:
fastboot oem relock xxxxxx
Where xxxxxx is your bootloader unlock code
?
Edit: ah, you used your unlock pw already, which I assume is your bootloader unlock code .
You could actually try adding your Google account again and see if that enables oem unlocking in Dev options...

Search for just MHA-L29C567. I'd try B183 or B190 (the one from 20/5).
B167 was the first public FW for C567, anything prior to that can't be installed.

Download and install using the Firmware Finder app. Try B167 first. You can update to latest after you've fixed frp.

Install using Firmware Finder. It's just more likely you'll be able to flash B167. B190 is kind of new.
It's like this. Huawei pushes an update to their server. A few weeks later they start approving IMEIs for update.
Edit: It's called In-app proxy in Firmware Finder. I have not used it. I've only updated using Firmware Finder for windows and changing routers dns to match Firmware finders IP.

You can't dload. Almost no Mate 9 firmware is approved for offline installation..
It's either Firmware Finder or FunkyHuawei(cost money to use, should be last resort).
And since you can't install twrp, rebranding to a dload firmware is not an option (AL00C00 and C636)

Using the in-app proxy? I thought you could actually apply it after downloading, but apparently it has to go through System Update...
Open Firmware Finder in your phone,
Tap on/Search for your firmware and on the one you want (FullOTA MHA-L29C567B167).
Tap on "In-App Proxy". Tap on OK.
Go to your phones Settings - Wifi.
Long-press on your current Wifi connection. Tap "Modify Network".
Check "Show advanced options".
Tap "Proxy", tap on Manual.
Set Proxy hostname to "localhost" (without quotes)
Set Proxy Port to "8080" (without quotes)
Tap Save.
Now go to Settings - System Update - "Check for Update".
It should now find the B167 update, let it download and install.

"Your device has failed verification..." after Firmware Finder update [SOLVED]
Hello to everyone!!
I have a problem with my Honor 8, it is the FRD-L09 model firmware B394.
I installed Firmware Finder from Playstore and tried to downloaded the B402 version, it downloaded a lot of packages ota and then tried to install the update without success.
After that, when I turn on the phone, there is this message. If I push the power button the phone starts.
I don't know if it can be useful but if I go into fastboot mode the phone says: phone unlocked and frp locked, but I haven't unlock the bootloader. The phone is new, purchase from the honor site.
Thank you in advance!!
EDIT: I was able to resolve the problem with the rollback guide of huawei, flashing MM via dload!!
When you update with FF, I recommend to use the change DNS thing. Just for the future.

You can try to reinstall EMUI on it. There is a guide called "back to emui from custom roms", which requires the openkirin twrp, though. Anyway, did you check that you have firmware access with IMEI?

Yes, I checked it before start the update
EDIT: Can I use the restore option into Hisuite?
When using either option, in System Update press the 3dot menu and select full package. This will download one large update rather than the multiple OTA files.

Typically you get this problem when you install an update without locking the bootloader.. This happened with me couple of weeks back.. I think happens, cos during the process of the update the bootloader gets locked, but it doesnt come up on the fastboot (donno why)
I just unlocked the bootloader using the OEM code and voila it worked... I was able to get ride of this message as well as root the phone.. Do try and let me know!

I fix it by unlocking the bootloader and flash userdata.img but still can not fix it.

Thats happened when you factory reset..you can overcome the problem if you flash new firmware..try check your update system..if not successful to update through ota then try download from firmware finder in play store
