2) Preparation before the T card upgrade:
1. Prepare a TF card and format the TF card into FAT format first;
2. Decompress the downloaded product software version (generally a compressed package and divide it into multiple compressed sub-packets) and copy the obtained folder named "HLTE700T_TF" to the root directory of the TF card.
3. Insert the TF card into your phone and put the battery in your phone. Make sure the battery is more than 50% charged. If the battery is low, please charge it first.
(three) T card upgrade process
1. Press and hold the “Volume+” and “Volume-” side buttons at the same time, then press the power button, the phone will automatically enter the T card upgrade mode for upgrade. If the phone does not enter the T card upgrade mode, please shut down. Repeat this operation.
2. Wait for about 5 minutes to complete the upgrade and a prompt for the upgrade to be successful.
3. Restart according to the prompt after successful upgrade. If there is no such prompt, press and hold the power button for more than 20 seconds to restart. After the upgrade, the first boot time is longer, which is several times of the normal boot time. Please be patient.

EDIT: Yipee! It was asking for password. I booted to recovery by Hodling volume down+power. Then select an option to erase data, confirm by pressing volume up. It took a few minutes.
Then it booted with the custom rom!
So, anyone who comes across password can just erase their phone by booting into recovery.
Thanks to joygram! This works, so looking forward to having gapps on my phone now! Good luck to everybody.

I used Magisk and patched boot.img in joygram's ROM. Then I replaced the original boot.img with partched one, and then used the same method with QFIL. It works!
But when you boot it reminds you device state is locked. However, Magisk is fully operational and I have used many modules already.

Hi all,
Just got my Star S5 in the mail, while I'm in the process of removing all chinese bloatware, I'm hitting a wall here. To remove baidu I need root (which i want anyway, actually), but I can't seem to boot into cwm-recovery after creating my own with smart phone flash tools and mtk droid root & tools. None of the other options listed online work either! Is there a secret button combination or something to get into recovery or does smart phone flash tools SAY it flashed the boot.img and recovery.img but doesn't it actually do it?
Pressing vol+ and power, then when green android pops up on screen releasing power but holding vol+ doesn't work (it just continues to boot regularly)!
Edit: ninonirvana's solution below worked to get into CWM.. however, flashing the superuser-binary doesn't work on android 4.2 and up. I had to use SuperSU, everything works now!

I can't seem to find the tutorial I used yesterday (it was today, actually, 2.30am) but I read back the original scatter-file and rom with mtk droid root & tools, afterwards I used spflashtool SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1304.0.119 to read back the original rom (cache-HEX as endpoint) and used mtk droid root & tools again to create my new boot.img and recovery.img. Lastly, i followed this <<USE SUPERSU INSTEAD OF SUPERUSER>> tutorial, flashing only my newly created recovery.img and boot.img, after using your nexus toolkit to get into cwm. I backed up my rom now AND rooted, so all is well
NOTE: as stated above, using superuser doesn't work on android 4.2 and up, you should flash superSU instead!
I know this phone is new and I may get it in the future, once the rooting process is is figured out for MT6589, it may be useful for other phones with the same chip. Can someone write a simple step-by-step instructions on how to root it for others so there won't be a bunch of scattered threads and questions about the same thing. Thanks in advance!

It is no one key root tool for android 4.1 or android 4.2. I think the best way for root the phone is flashing the phone with rooted ROM if it exists

If you post a screenshot of the recovery menus, then we could get someone who understands Chinese to do a line-by-line translation. Or maybe even Google Translate

Hello everyone, im new into the honor 9 section since i got this smartphone for 2 weeks now.

I experienced the issue of not working capacitive buttons myself right after I unlocked the bootloader and setup my phone again. After flashing RROS the buttons are working again so maybe it's just a strange behavior of EMUI.
Ah ok, so the capacitive buttons are started to work again when you switched to rros, so not with this rom? On the rros thread in turn is written that home button is not recognized?

Yes they did for me and I don't know about this Rom, I only had that issue on stock EMUI Rom. Maybe they do work here too, because it's a Custom Rom - I don't understand this strange behavior of it myself. Maybe another person who has tested this Rom can answer that question.
The not working home button is a known issue of the RR-OS, it doesn't have anything to do with the capacitive button issue.
Hmm really wierd, but thats exactly why i didnt flash a custom rom for now. I want to have a rom where the main features a working as they should, some smaller bugs are not the problem. My last device was a xperia z3c the roms there were really good, to bad honor does not provide the hole code for the modders. If the Home button (just the hardware one?) does not work you cant use fingerprint unlock also?

RROS is the only bigger Custom Rom where the FPS is working (on LineageOS and AOSPA it doesn't). The not working home button isn't that big of an issue for me because there are a lot of other ways to get to the homescreen when you've got root - or even set a fingerprint gesture so it will more or less behave as it should.
But we are kind of off topic here. If you want to, we can continue about that on the RROS thread.
Nice effort with the firmware, you should grab a friend with English skills though! So you're able to help people needing proper advice on how to flash it, and also your "cancel" buttons will actually read "cancel" and not "CANCLE"... :laugh: that said I'm interested hence will wait for next version... Maybe.
Cheers.

I confirm this issue. And I think the capacitive buttons doesn't work only after the first reboot next the unlocking. After a second reboot I think the buttons worked again, but I'm not 100% sure.

Update 8 to 8
1. Download the phone to the fastboot mode using the volume buttons "minus" and the cable usb
2. Run the bat file Replace_Recovery. in the HWOTA8 folder to flash the twrp of the recovery.
3. Disconnect the USB cable, use the volume plus buttons and power to boot into the TWRP.
4. Create the "HWOTA8" folder on the sdcard.
5. Put the archive hwota8_update.zip, STF_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.IMG and the three update archives (update.zip, update_data_public.zip and update_all_hw.zip) in the "HWOTA8" folder.
6. Install the hwota8_update.zip archive on the TWRP. The phone will reboot and install the update automatically.
Rollback from 8 android to 7
1. Place the updated firmware files 7 of the androids update.zip, update_data_public.zip and update_all_hw.zip in the HWOTA8 / repack folder.
2. Run the bat file "repack" to repackage the zip files. We will prepare our firmware
3. Create the folder "HWOTA8" on the SD card. (Without quotes)
4. Place the archive hwota8_update.zip, STF_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.IMG (from the HWOTA8 folder) and the three update archives (update.zip, update_data_public.zip and update_all_hw.zip (from the repack folder after repackaging)) to the "HWOTA8" folder on the map.
5. Boot into the TWRP
6. Install the hwota8_update.zip file which lies in the HWOTA8 folder on the CD-ROM to the TV. The phone will reboot into the recovery pool and install the update automatically.

Hi Guys,
Note : By doing this, you know that you're gonna do a modification to your phone, and im not in any way, responsible for what happen after. Escape Route for if something wrong happen is provided, but YOU DO THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK
since this phone is fairly new, at this moment a clear rooting method haven't established yet. This is what this thread for.
Based on information gathered from P20 Lite Forum (the rooting guide for that device even already up - here), it seems the old trick of rooting (from Mate 10 Pro) using Patched Boot Method is working fine. And Magisk is working
Basically this method need few pre-requisites :
1. Unlocked Bootloader (by getting the code here ) - and if you not sure how to do it, go here for the guide
2. Stock Boot (or RAMDISK to be precise for this phone) - I managed to extract it from 8.1.0.106 ROM version for CLT-L29 (download here)
3. Magisk Manager 5.5.4 (from Magisk Thread) to patch the .img above, or
4. Patched RAMDISK image (i patched it) from here
5. and of course computer with ADB & Fastboot installed (make sure you have latest SDK to prevent something not working)
Now, to Root it, all you need to do is,
1. Boot into bootloader
2. Type
Code:
fastboot flash ramdisk patched_boot.img
(patched_boot.img is the file you download from prerequisites number 4, placed it in the same directory with your adb & fastboot - i assume you know that already)
3. Reboot
4. You now should have root access, download Magisk Manager to manage modules and superuser
(you might need to flash this module if you failed to pass safetynet)
In case something go wrong, flash back the stock RAMDISK from pre-requistes number 2 above using same method as what u did to flash the patched one.
That way worked. Thanks.
Edit:
Just as a hint. To get magisk work as it should..
After boot into the system and installed Magisk Manager, install Magisk from there again, so you dont get any /data/magisk problems.
SafteyNet passed then.
Fingers crossed twrp is possible soon
Works on CLT-L09
I have a German single Sim from Vodafone tested the root yesterday and works very well
Would this method work on CLT-L09 model? Thanks

The post before you just confirmed yourbquestion, LoL
Yes it does
This is awesome, thanks for sharing! I thought I could live without root but after only half a day, I've decided I can't!
Before I do this, I was wondering where you managed to get the stock rom (quote below)?

Hey guys, I need some help please! I unlocked bootloader through Huawei website which went fine and then when I flashed the patched boot.img through fastboot and tried to reboot my phone has told me there was a critical error while booting. It won't boot to system and just loops a few times and then boots to Huawei eRecovery. This is my first Huawei device and I'm clueless as to how to recover
Any ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks
**EDIT*** false alarm! I managed to boot to fastboot and restore the ramdisk from the first post

The ramdisk.img was taken from .106 ROM, so its actually newer than what installed on your phone. That might become issue,
But, do you managed to revive the phone using the stock ramdisk from first post ?

Yes thank you, the stock ramdisk from the first post allowed my phone to boot normally again. Do you think if I use magisk manager app to patch the stock ramdisk it will work for me? Or is that the same as what you did to make the patched boot.img anyway?

If you have the 103 rom, and able to extract the ramdisk yourself, you can try patch it yourself.
Have you tried to flash the patch ramdisk one more time ? In case it just a bad flash.
Because if you manage to boot using stock one. It means your system has no problem using .106 boot image and the patched one should work as well

Put the device off and hold power button and volume down. You should come directly into the rescue mode.

Unbrick tool by One-Team - EypCnn
First: This tool seems to be from EypCnn, One-Team. All credits to them!
EDIT2: I no longer own this device, so i will leave this thread here for people to use. But don't expect any direct support from me .
What can this tool do?:
Restore phone to Stock(International) Firmware (S048) Marshmallow (Locked & Unlocked bootloader)
Fix Lost or bad Signal / IMEI any software Problem
For who does this work?
Pretty much any Lenovo P2 Variant (Chinese and International)
Phones which can access bootloader(you have to boot into it)
Works on Locked & Unlocked Bootloader
Installation aka. Flashing-Steps
Put your phone into bootloader (which is also fastboot) mode.
Download the folder and unzip it.
Connect your phone to your pc.
Go into the unzipped folder and open "flashall - stock reco.bat"
Wait, for the process to end, your phone will reboot on its own.! A stock lenovo bootlogo will show up !
You can disconnect your phone cable from pc and plug into a wall charger, just to be safe. Once the lockscreen is showing up, you're done.
If you want to flash Custom Roms:
look below:
WHEN MOVING TO CUSTOM ROMS NOW:
1. Boot to twrp. (Make sure it is pietwrp from telegram or the official 3.2.3 or later version)
2. Select WIPE menu option
3. Select data partition
4. Change file format to f2fs or anyother.
5. Go back to Start Menu of TWRP, choose Reboot Menu Option
6.Reboot to Recovery
7. Repeat Steps 2 and 3
8. This time select EXT4 when changing file format
9. Do Step 5 and 6
10. Wipe System,Cache and Dalvik-Cache partitions
( for older twrp versions: 10.1 If you're on official twrp 3.2.3 or lower, you have to flash pietwrp or latest twrp now !)
11. Flash your Custom Rom, Gapps (optional) and latest Magisk(optional)
12. Wipe Cache and Dalvik-Cache
13. Reboot. First Boot might take a few minutes but never longer than 7minutes.
If it takes longer, you're encounter a so called bootloop.
Comment hear if that happens, containing information on your twrp-version, rom, gapps, magisk and mods(if present) you're using.
When you corrupt your internal Storage or geht TWRP Error 1001, Error 7:
1. Repeat steps 2-6
2. Repeat steps 7-8

I will help if questions arise.

Thanks a lot. You literally saved my life!
Works like Magic
Thanks a lot for saving my ass . simplest way to downgrade to mm too. Thanks again
Wait.... downgrade to MM? Does this mean you can regain your signal or did @krishnakoonala get it wrong?
I have a spare P2 lying around that I never used because the IMEI got corrupted and I couldn't flash the bootloader files since I was unlocked.
I assume this wouldn't solve my issue?

My p2 was bricked and , stuck in boot loop. I followed the above instructions, 10 mins into it , it booted with mm version, the same version when i bought and booted for 1st time. It was like a new phone to me.
So i assume if one has upgraded to noughat and want to downgrade but is worried he might brick his device, one can take a back up and try this tool. It works flawless.
No harm in trying this one if ur p2 can boot up mate. Give it a shot. Good luck
Cheers
This tool has saved my device from multiple over a span of two years soft bricks. Can confirm it to do wonders.

It flashed everything you have when you buy a new phone. And no, it doesn't lock your bootloader.
So you can either :
- keep using MM Stock Rom S048
- Update via ota in System like you normally would do.
- Update till latest Firmware, then flash twrp- and then Custom Rom of your Choice.
Bootloader is in the same state it was before you used this tool.

(Literally in thread description)
You can flash it on unlocked bootloader or locked as well.
So many thanks for bringing up tis tool for us!
This thread should be stick as the "New user" thread is, they definitely belong together.

Thanks guys, if this works I can now revive my phone. But can someone please upload the tool to another place like google drive. From android filehost it will take an eternity to download!

If you used some other tool for imei. You are pretty much done for.
Using this tool i can go to MM version and can upgrade to S251. However after installing twrp and flashing custom rom, it goes to bootloader
GSI IS DONE CHECK THE LINK BELOW, IT'S CURRENTLY IN PROGRESS BELOW IS THE STATUS ME WORKING ON IT
THE GSI PIE TUTORIAL
Grab these two files (Big Thanks to @Zerovoid from 4PDA, @Seryioo, and @mac12m99)
Fixed SDCard Support TWRP Image File (Download this and put this on your SDCard and Computer)-
Original Fixed TWRP XDA Post
Fixed SDCard Support TWRP Installer Zip (Download and put this on your SDCard)-
Fixed TWRP .zip Installer
But I got TWRP on 10.0.4.0 with magisk, and Justice Kernel.
THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE I'M DEFINITELY NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST DATA, SD CARDS, ETC
Start with the phone being on with USB Debugging enabled correctly and bootloader unlocked
Type: adb reboot bootloader
So flash the 10.0.4.0 ROM through MiFlash using the flash_all.bat, this process has to be done so backup your data before erasing.
After it is done flashing it restarts, go ahead and hold power and volume down right back to the Bootloader
Type: fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-daisy_zero.img
It would boot into TWRP, if you see something about decryption hit cancel this may mean you haven't followed directions so far
Tap install and find your SD Card, find the fixed-twrp-installer-daisy.zip where ever you put it on your SD Card and install it, this process takes a few minutes when finished DO NOT HIT REBOOT SYSTEM!
Hit the home button back to TWRP home screen and tap reboot >>> bootloader
Download this to your computer -
aboot.img
Type: fastboot flash aboot aboot_9.6.4.img
Then type: fastboot reboot
Afterwards your phone shall boot up to Android if it does hold power and volume up and release power and keep hold volume up when the screen turns back on to go-to recovery, if TWRP boots up you have successfully completed the task.
Now flash Magisk zip (optional)
Hopefully this helped kind of my first tutorial, this was my process.

That's weird, I'm running Android Pie on A2L and Wi-Fi looks great.
Have you tried performing a full wipe and flashing the stock ROM?
I had other issues which were fixed by flashing the stock ROM with a full wipe.
Tbh I don't think the patch updates are 100% trustworthy, so I simply update it manually.

You have to extract the file using WinZip, it's just like a .zip file. But after you extract the stock rom there should be another file in that extract that too and select the folder extracted folder with all of the .img in it in MiFlash.
You must have the Pie ROM to do this
Please make sure you have the latest ROM or latest patch from this link https://en.miui.com/getrom-354.html?

So it's not mounting right sounds like it can right but can't read
I found the solution here:
https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-15952.html
- Go to the TWRP Home Screen and select Mount
- Untick "Mount system partition read-only"
Restore was starting then, but after 99% this error appeared:
The extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255
The device didn't start anymore and I had to set it up again.
