First i have stock rom frd-l09c432b401 then I unlocked the bootloader, installed recovery TWRP 3.1.1, and then room custom AOSP 7.1.1 and then I decided to back to the room stock. I deleted everthing in my mobile using twrp wipe all and with commands ABD I installed the stock recovery. I downloaded oficial rom, I put it in the micro SD in the folder dload the update.app But:
It updates to 20-30% more or less and then failed the installation. I tried to rollback and nothing, the same thing, it updates to 100% and then reboot again failed, then i tried to recover by HiSuite and nothing, and with adb commands the same, all failled and command not allowed.
I really dont know what to do in this situation :/

Help needed for my bricked device

Hi,
I have a mate 8 L29.
I was on "SimplyGoogle" B172 and wanted to go to KangVip B331.
I follow the OP instructions (at least i think...).

reboot and wait until chinese screen disappears."
Here, i get stuck with the message "Your device is booting now..."
I'm stuck here... I've try SwissKnife with the "unbrick" part...no result...tried to fastboot flash B170 version to get back to normal...No success.
Tried the 3 button with the dload on my sdcard....worked ones but get stuck at 5%. Since then, no access to it...
So now, i've no recovery...i can access to Erecovery, but i get this message "Getting package info failed"...
I can access fastboot too...but nothing else
Can someone help me please ?
Thanks in advance

You will need
1) Huawei Update Extractor ( please check the attachment)
2) SRK tools
3) B170 stock firmware.
4) B321 stock firmware (you need to extract files from this ) - check the below steps.
please check this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66776218&postcount=2 . It has everything.
Below are the steps from the above link - for L29 users. Please see below - I marked my comments in red for better understanding.
1. Start from stock B170 firmware with TWRP ready
2. Extract BOOT, CUST, RECOVERY, SYSTEM from B321 UPDATE.APP
3. Add firmware .zip file (which contains META-INF folder and UPDATE.APP) and place it into internal storage [ this is B170 zip just putting it in SDcard file ]
4. Make sure internal storage data is fully backed up
5. Delete All Accounts in Settings
6. Go to Recovery, Wipe Cache, Delvik Cache, Data, System
7. Flash that .zip file! (Getting errors is okay at this time) [This is what I didn't do before!] [ Flash that B170 zip file]
8. Boot straight to bootloader
9. fastboot flash boot, cust, and system [ this step is for flashing the extracted boot cust system from B321 ]
10. let it boot. Let it proceed with encryption process in chinese and fully boot into EMUI
11. NOW I'M AT EMUI 4.1!
12. Reboot to fastboot and fastboot flash insecure_boot and flash TWRP [this step - you can ask them why this is required ]
13. Reboot to recovery (TWRP) and then flash whatever rom you want to place in!
14. Enjoying it!
---------------------
Hope this works out for you. Don't forget to :good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good:

Getting a mistake when I try to flash the recovery via fastboot on my Nexus 4

Hey. I just flashed a stock rom and re-locked the bootloader, in order to unlock it, get twrp, get a custom rom (likely lineage) and root with magisk (it seems better than superSU, no?) without any toolkit, because i want to get some knowledge about android.
I downloaded adb and fastboot, enabled USB debugging, booted my nexus 4 on bootloader mode, and I used 3 commands after opening the command prompt from the folder containing fastboot. I also downloaded the latest img of TWRP for nexus 4 and renamed it "twrp" and put it on the folder.
The 3 commands I used are : "fastboot OEM unlock", "fastboot erase recovery", "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
But when the phone tries to boot the recovery, I get this : puu.sh/wWTjC/6cf11a9a32.jpg
and it doesnt work ofc.
Furthermore, I can't boot the ROM, I can only boot the recovery and the bootloader. When I try to boot the Rom, i get the recovery.
can someone help me please?
thanks
Hello,
The problem is that the recovery is unable to mount the /data partition, what you need to do is repair it by the following steps
1.Go to TWRP main screen
2.Press wipe
3.press advanced wipe
4.tick data
5.press repair and change file system
6.press repair
7.wipe the arrow
NOTE: this will format the data partition
now reboot to recovery again and check if the problem is fixed
Hello, the problem is I cant reach the main menu of TWRP, after getting what I screened, my phone reboots on TWRP again, and again...
I also tried the command "fastboot boot twrp.img" and i get the same result.
where did you get the twrp from ?
i would in such case as twrp is having troubles first try to find a working version of it, and it it didn't work i would reflash to stock stock and start from scratch
I got twrp there : dl.twrp.me/mako/
i took the latest version.
Get the cwm recovery for your device, wipe data , then try reflashing the twrp recovery
It's ok, thanks

did that help ? hopefully?
hmm, I thought it did, but i actually get the same problem, and I can't launch neither cwm nor twrp..
Once yo reinstall twrp
Go to wipe the format data to remove encryption
You can also use cwm to flash the ROM

i bricked my honor, is there anything i can do?

So I had an unlocked H8 with LOS. As I wanted to install EMUI, I put the proper restore Update.app into the dload folder and started Huawei's recovery. Everything went well, I formated data and wanted to install the EMUI 4.1 ROM using the same method.
Unfortunately my H8 is bootlooping and there is now way into erecovery nor any other recovery. It simply reboots on every single known vol up or down key pressing combination. The only thing I can go to is fastboot mode when holding down vol down and plugging in usb wire. But, it says frd locked and I can't install nor boot twrp. It's simply gone and reboots all the time.
Any hints? I can't even turn it off.
I wanted to give away that phone that's the reason. Last time I did it this way, I could flash the EMUI 4.1 since it's signed. But not this time.
Interesting part is, that although fastboot says frd locked, I still get the "phone unlocked" warning on every reboot. dload method isn't working, as it simply keeps rebooting.
It's my hardest brick so far I ever encountered
the same thing happened to me.....on my phone lock/unlocked frp and bootloader were tweaked for some reason(I mean that what was written wasn't the reality) so how did I fix it? I kept on to flash rollback package many times and I tried to unlock/relock bootloader again, at the end the phone let me to flash the firmware, I didn't know how but the phone allowed me to flash things throw recovery(using dload method). At the begin I only could access to erecovery and fastboot. I suppose that I broke system and data partition and while I looked/unlocked the bootloader, the wipe fixed the partition table. Sorry I'm tired and I know that my English sucks, I hope you understand what I have written.
How did you enter erecovery as this isn't working for me.... What did you flash over fastboot?
Have you tried flashing the firmware separately using adb on computer?
For this you just need to extract the Update.app using the firmware extractor for huawei. Then flash them individually using adb commands in cmd.
I can't access any state that would allow to do adb.

sorry. I'll try to explain better, however on Huawei/honor devices there are not one but two recoveries, so one is the normal recovery flashed in recovery partition, the second one is the Huawei recovery that is flashed in recovery2 partition, so if you didn't touch recovery2 partition, your erecovery is still there, now, if you press VOL+ VOL- and POWER it will reboot to recovery2 and it starts to flash something from dload in your sd card, so in my opinion you should do this things, first try this method to flash rollback package(this is the transition package from 7 to 6 and you will find it on honor site) if this is still not working try locking and unlocking again your bootloader(I hope this fix partitions of your device) then try to enter recovery and do a wipe and then boot your device, if this doesn't work flash rollback package(now it would work) and then flash an emui 4 full firmware image, always using dload method. trust me... I did the same... and it worked for me. let me know if it works for you :good:

I ran into this issue not that long ago. What you have to do is relock your bootloader using ADB. The ADB commands and instructions can be found in this thread.
Just a FYI, do not use the links to the software listed in that thread as it is a little outdated. The method still works but the software will probably not work. Just be sure to get the most recent/appropriate version of SuperSU and TWRP via their official threads (This is if you want to re-root). There are Honor 8 specific TWRP files if I remember correctly, so be sure to check around the Honor 8 forums for the correct files.
A quick summary of what I did:
1) Power your phone off and then boot into fastboot by holding Vol down + Power; as soon as it boots up, plug your phone into your combuter via your usb cord.
2) With ADB running, type:
Code:
fastboot oem relock [COLOR="LightBlue"]################[/COLOR]
NOTE: The '#' should be replaced with your unique unlock code that you obtained to unlock your bootloader.
3) Wait for it to format and reset your phone and go through the setup. BE SURE TO BYPASS all google registration; skip everything you can to get into the phone itself. If you do register, it will reactivate FRP and you'll have to start over again.
4) Turn on USB Debugging and every other setting that enables developer administrative navigation and control just to be safe. USB Debugging being the most important one, though.
5) Restart your phone and boot into fastboot again using Vol down + Power.
6) Unlock your phone again with:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock [COLOR="LightBlue"]################[/COLOR]
7) Once the command is entered, it'll reset your phone once more and - as stated before - bypass/skip all google (FRP) registration.
8) Enable developer options and USB debugging again and make sure that OEM Unlocked is checked and grayed out.
9) Reboot into fastboot mode to confirm that FRP is disabled and you should be able to install TWRP now via ADB.
@Numerics thanks. The thing is, that I can't boot anything. I can't even go into eRecovery. Nor can I flash a stock EMUI 4.1. It just boot loops all the time and I can only access fastboot.
If you can flash twrp..........Install los or other Rom ..................Go back to stock.......you must flash b360 ober adb...... because los is 7.1...............if you on b360 you can usw the rollback for emui 4.1........,..............sry for bad english
I can easily go to fastboot. But I can't flash anything. I extracted the img from the update.app but can't flash. It simply says that it's not permitted.

With my method, you don't need to flash anything. Just relock your bootloader via adb in fastboot mode and let it reset. Unless I'm not understanding your issue entirely.
@Numerics as I said, in won't boot anything as it is constantly boot looping. There is no way to access any kind of recovery nor erecovery. There is no boot into Android. The only thing accessible right now is fast boot (which is not ADB). But even in fast boot I can't do anything als operations are not permitted.
after boot looping and starting fast boot mode, I can see a "Android reboot reason" section saying:
AP_S_PANIC
data is invalid
There is still a lineageos installed on system as firmware but as I tried to get rid of it by going back to stock EMUI, I guess Huawei's rollback did something wrong and killed recovery (although I did it in the past successfully).
I tried to run HiSuite to recover my phone, but it just says, that my phone is not supported.
Speaking of this, Huawei messed up with that whole fastboot locking bull****.

No, I know ADB isn't Fastboot. What I'm trying to say is that you should be able to still run ADB via CMD on Windows when you're in fastboot mode to relock your bootloader with the directions I gave in my previous post. It'll force-restore your phone to a non-bricked/vanilla state. At least that is how I fixed mine.
Like... You can't even try using the 'fastboot oem relock ################' function via the ADB console while in fastboot?
yes boy trust us, you haven't a working OS so it is a normal thing that your phone reboot, you cannot access to recovery because some partitions are corrupted (data partition) , so these are the steps that could help you:
1) using fastboot, relock your boot loader
2)using fastboot, unlock your boot loader (partition table would be ok now, and you would be able to use load method to flash things trow stock recovery)
4)put inside your sd card \dload\update.app(use rollback package)
3) press all the buttons while your device is rebooting(do this before the blue screen logo appear), your phone is now looking for something inside your sd card
5) if the next step doesn't work do a factory reset from recovery that now would be working
6) put inside your sd card a full android 6 (emus 4) update.app and pressing all buttons it will install the firmware
7) your device now is locked and back to stock, maybe without cust partition or maybe in test mode but it is certainly alive
8) do a factory reset and reinstall the firmware
9) your phone is now ok
You don't lock the bootloader via ADB but via fastboot.
As I said, northing was restored and nothing is booting and I can't unlock my bootloader again. As I said, recovery is not working so the file in dload is not loaded and used. Which is strange.
Locking bootloader didn't do anything besides locking the bootloader. Device is still dead and I still can only access fastboot.

This is not the truth.....locking bootloader will erase all your data and fix partitions....and with fixed partition you can access to recovery ......trust me the only thing that you can do is to lock your bootloader......you can't flash anything from fastboot and boot recovery or system now...... lock your bootloader and then unlock it again, try using "fastboot OEM lock *****" or "fastboot OEM relock *******" (try cmd runned as admin, people say that this makes the difference) then unlock your device again and .....magic your recovery will boot......the same thing happened to me and I fixed my phone using this trick, however, even if you had frp unlocked it would say you that isn't possible to write anything because you broke some partition, and that's the reason why you can't boot recovery, wait one second and think: why doesn't my recovery boot?
It has nothing to do with trust. I did it and device is still a full stone brick. Nothing changed by locking the bootloader besides that now I can't unlock the bootloader anymore.

I messed up with Huawei Mate 9. Please Help.

Guys i have a really really big problem with mate 9 (MHA-L29). I broke both twrp and system same time (please don't ask why.)
Now, my phone don't open, just fastboot&rescue mode, useless huawei recovery (which can't format data neither install stock rom). Besides, i can't install stock rom because i tried once, and i downloaded wrong system file, and i can't format the phone now. Because of that, stock rom that i download sd card not working too. Because there is a dload file in phone.
worst of all, i can't install twrp again, because my fastboot screen tell me that: "Phone Unloced" (with red) "FRP Lock" (with green). When i try to install twrp, adb says "Failed, remote command not allowed"
Now, if can install the twrp, all my problems will be solve. There is 1 custom rom (RomAur) and 1 system backup.
How can i install twrp with this situation?
Please someone help me i spend 2 days and still nothing! How can i open this phone? Stock rom, with/without root, custom rom whatever, just tell me how can i open this phone
up
You get that command when trying to flash the wrong recovery partition, was your room nougat or Oreo based?? If nougat it's fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and Oreo fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img I think you are trying to flash the wrong partition

No, my twrp is not wrong, i installed before, and i used long time, till broken. I installed wrong twrp recovery over correct recovery (i was trying to chance recovery because project treble). Thats why my twrp broken. Now i try to correct one, but adb says "not allowed". My custom rom nougat based.

With FRP lock you'll have to use DC-Phoenix.
But it costs €19 (For 3 days usage).
Simply put you can bypass FRP with it by force closing DC-Phoenix when it has activated the backdoor, after this you can flash anything from fastboot (until you reboot).
So you could use it to flash back TWRP.
Or you can use it to install stock firmware

Special Request
Hey ante . Is it possible to help me ? I rooted my phone 2 days back and messed it up while downloading a framework app which ended me up in a bootloop. I have been reading and following your posts of you helping others. I don't really get the steps what I should follow.
My phone is unlocked. FRP shows Unlock.
Rooted on oreo and I tried e-recovery and fastboot steps you mentioned in other threads using kernel and ramdisk etc. ( After this I have lost access to TWRP and I am simply getting EMUI Screen with options for Factory Data Reset and Wipe Cache Partition. I don't know where it is going to lead me next :-/.
Also downloaded Huawei Extractor and tried to extracted specific files but the firmware file I have doesn't have CUST.img file.
Also the site link you mentioned for download firmware is in some other language and I am unable to search for my firmware.
I also tried the placing update file in the dload on my sd card but fails at 5%. The file was correct and I am sure I did'n download the wrong firmware.
Currently it shows this on the fastboot screen.
Andorid reboot reason
: AP_S_ABNORMAL 32

Just don't know what I should be doing ? PLEASE HELP BRO?

What's your firmware now?
You can get that info in Fastboot using
Code:
fastboot oem get-product-model
fastboot oem get-build-number
Since your recovery and fastboot still functions you probably will only need to use HWOTA to get back to stock.
It can be found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-oreo-update-package-t3699522
But post your cust/build before proceeding.
Also cust.img is found in UPDATE.APP in the hw data zip.
Problem Solved - Somewhat
Hey ante. Thanks for the promt reply. I got it solved by using CHIMERA tool.
Would like to suggest others also stuck with same issue to use CHIMERA.
Note - It is a paid tool and 100% legit and it can help with all problems related to FRP, Bootloader Lock / Unlock & also flashes back to factory firmware.
However what I am facing now I have flashed another version of firmware which isn't my region and some features of my phone like fingerprint scanner and other things are not working but phone is back to live. So Im glad and looking forward to searching for clean Oreo Firmware for my region to flash using CHIMERA Again.
Also, the sick and stupid part of it. I went to the service center and a person non-technical told me straight that you lost your device and it's of no use now. We cannot fix such issues 99% but I'll still ask my team and let you know after 3 days.
Thank God I didn give them and wasted my time and money.
As soon as I returned, I followed up to things and got it done myself. :good:
Anybody can possibly suggest a official firmware Oreo EMUI for Middle East Region!? If not which one can be flashed instead and where to download from?

Fastboot Flashes but dont doesn't persist.

Hi guys, I have an Honour 4C wich reading through forums i managed to update it to most recent AOKP 7.1.2 version (https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8l...t/rom-t3717536) for P8Lite Alice and everything was ok.
I can recall some years ago I had to change my model from CHC-U01 to CMH-U01 to update to 6.0 if my memory is right and recently flashed P8 Lite firmware (B896) in order to flash AOKP and device was running without problems.
I was running my phone in performance governor for gaming , forgot turn it off, My phone complety run out of battery while asleep i woke up put it to charge.
It charged a little and after it powered on by itself bootlooping into OS.
I'm now facing a bootloop, phone auto turns on when charging and bootloops.
If I enter fastboot and exit into a shutdown its stays charging ok. (Just to turn on by itself at some point)
PC detects fastboot just fine and I can fastboot, however, no matter what I Flash i can't get sytem to boot up properly NOR can i boot TWRP recovery.
I flash twrp into recovery, IT says it was flashed OK but when i boot into recovery it just open that EMUI menu with reboot into system , wipe cache/ and system restore (wich takes 1sec , says system restored but it doesnt).
I've tried to flash B896_Update.zip used HuaweiUpdateExtractor and flashed BOOT RECOVERY AND SYSTEM OK , but again, no changes... it boots into AOKP Logo when it should boot into Huawei logo if any changes took efect.
If boot into fastboot and press KeyvolumeUP, other eRecovery EMUI appears now with restart , wifi update and shutdown.
When I try this Wifi method it bootloops right after it says connecting..
Also I can't do a fastboot erase (cache...userdata..any) because it gives FAILED (remote: Command not allowed) ... my bootloader is UNLOCKED and command prompt is running in administrator mode.
Same happens if i try to run fastboot boot twrp_Recovery.img , download OK but FAILED remote: Command not allowed.
I have no way to do an ADB sideload and try to go from that because system doesnt boot.
Is it just HardBricked even so I can boot into bootloader and fastboot?
It is driving me crazy it feels like fastboot just "fake flashes" or something . Nothing takes effect ....
Hi Korreya,
Once I to had ended up in a boot loop when I had messed up during twrp (that was 1st time I had tried flashing it into a phone).
I eventually tried many methods, few of which you have also mentioned, and finally succeeded but I exactly don't remember what I had did so I'm not sure if this works.
Download the stock Honor4C ROM (I'm not able to post the link so you could just Google it) and copy the file named UPDATE.APP into a folder named "dload" (without the " , if there's no such folder just create one) on your SD card and then try going into the eRecovery EMUI and updating the system.
PS: Note that this would install the official stock ROM on the device.
Try it and do let me know if that helps.
Peace
