This is a very very big problem
I bought a used Huawei P8 Lite (with bootloader locked) and I upgrade it to Marshmallow. The build number change to Balong but I tried to fix that and do a downgrade but the build number don't change "Balong"
The guy that sold me the phone told me IMEI was changed, and I can't unlock the bootloader now
In conclusion, I have the original IMEI (in the SIM slot) and the new IMEI, the original Series Number and the new one, but no ones work to unlock the bootloader
Please I need an alternative to unlock the bootloader to install a new firmware with a correct build number and not Balong
Thanks guys

Greetings and welcome to assist. Unfortunately changing IMEI is illegal and can't be discussed on xda, the only way I know to unlock the bootloader requires the IMEI number here

Hi,
I have a single sim MATE 9 MHA-L09
I was on NRD90M Test Keys Built, so wanted to flash stock firmware
so in order to get stock tried changing OEM info to c432(my previous built) using HWOTA (Update.bat)
i don't know what went wrong, on computer it says SUCCESS but checked it in HUAWEI MULTI TOOL
it shows
Found Phone : MHA-L09
Model : Huawei phone in fastboot mode
Serial NR. : UGM0217216001969
Firmware : NRD90M test-keys
Now am unable to recover using dload( Gives error at 5% )
No luck using HuaweiUpdateExtracter and HuaweiMultiTool as it ask to unlock my bootloader
Don't want to use FUNKYHUAWEI as it charges money and does not guarantee UNBRICK.
Phone is stuck on erecovery which shows update using wifi but doesn't detect anything end up with reboot and shutdown.
IS there any way i could be able to get product id so that i can unlock bootloader and proceed with flashing?
Any other way to recover my phone?
need help plz...... step by step........ :crying::crying::crying::crying:
Any help would be much appreciated
Thank You in advance.

For me it happend for the first time, previously i was able to unlock bootloader and root the device i was having a custom rom...then i wanted to return to stock and noticed that bootloder got locked in the process but no os only solution i can see is by dload method, i even have huawei p9 which has a rollback package which easily fix all problem but am unable to find any roll back package for mate 9, i live this device i spent nearly one day to fix it unfortunately dload didn't work for me...i have all the firmwaee downloaded and fetched stock img but it didn't helped as now i have a locked bootloader......i need any alternative way to find my product id to unlock bootloader and can flash firware easily.

If you are sure about whether your partitions are set up for Android N or Android O and use the correct update.app file, FHUnbrickFlashTool will get it booting again for you. The lack of guarantee is because a percentage of people use the wrong update.app file, and destroy their phones in the process.
If you rebrand you need to flash firmware twice in HWOTA. First select "rebrand", after this you need to unlock bootloader again and run HWOTA, but select "same brand update".

You can use this tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/how-to-product-id-bricked-p9-t3561156
Direct link to tool: http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Huawei P8 Lite (Download Huawei Product ID Generator.exe)
Follow instructions in first link. I have tested and it generates a valid Product ID, I even tested on huaweis site to get my unlock code (which matches the one I get using my own Product ID)
Just make sure you follow instructions.
Edit: To get serial no, just boot to fastboot and use cmd to enter command fastboot devices
the number to the left is your serial no.
In my case:
C:\Windows\System32>fastboot devices
AHK0217111000149 fastboot
AHK0217111000149 is my serial no.
Edit 2: Oh, you had serial no already. I'll leave it in case anyone else finds this.

Hi thanks for your reply,
I have all the information IMEI, Sno, but am unable to get product id:crying::crying: in order to unlock boot loader
in fastboot CMD it says its already bootloader unlocked but unable to flash twrp or boot up the device.
Is there any way to get product id except dialer method?

Are you selecting Huawei Y300-0100 in the generator? It doesn't work with any other model. And then you have to select "before emui 5" on the emui website and select phone as Y300-0100.
And try both IMEI.
If youre willing you could PM me your IMEI later and I'll try. I'm at work but home in about 6-7 hours.
If CMD states ur bootloader is already unlocked, u could be flashing to the wrong partition.. Are u using android N or O. Android O uses the updated twrp version so u will need to flash that version to the correct partition then u be able to boot to twrp and load ur OS

I've experienced it saying it's unlocked, but it's actually not. Have to fastboot oem relock xxxxxx
Then fastboot oem unlock xxxxxx
Xxxxx= password.
But one would need their unlock code for this.

Hmm. That's the one I tried from your other thread. Do you still have the mate 9 box? Could you check Serial number on it?
I read somewhere that the serial number fastboot shows might not always be correct.

you have to get into TWRP , make a back up of the OEM infos (on ur sdcard) then download the correct c432 oem infos , copy then to replace previous saved oem from twrp you ve done earlier ... then run htwoa and - if not enough - do the way as suggested by Ante0 (twice hwota / change brand for 432 then same brand)

The same thing is happening to me but my bootloader has been unlocked before. I re-locked it because I unchecked developer options. Now that I want to root my device and require my bootloader open, the button to check and uncheck is dark grey and is refusing to check the option.
PLEASE GIVE ADVICE/HELP.
Is there any updates in this topic?
I've been struggling with this problem since a week now, my phone is working, but I don't have original IMEIs, SN, and I locked my bootloader again by accident. Now I can't unlock it, it says: Unlock failed...
Is there any solution for this?
Or any other methods for unlocking the bootloader apart from the regular methods (fastboot oem unlock, fastboot flashing unlock etc.)?

May be we can try! PM me.
Fortunately, I've solved it by reflashing proinfo, and other partitions. It was quite a long time ago, so I don't really remember it, but I managed to solve it after a few days/weeks of struggling.

Your persist and custom partitions are corrupted. Search how to fix them aka flash new.
Pro tip: before you play with flashers unlock your bootloader first!
