Huawei p30 lite bricked - General Questions and Answers

My Huawei p30 lite switched off during an update in progress. after that incident, it doesn't work.
Just os boot loop only.
How to fix this issue?
I have firmaware as well - Huawei_P30_Lite_Marie-L01A_10.0.0.275_C431E8R2P7_EMUI10.0.0_05016RDP_Dload
I don't know how to flash this. I tried with few tools but none of them recognized the phone. (a few years back I did this stuff with my Samsung phone and using Odin. it's very easy. but Huawei I don't know how to do that)
right now without a power adapter, it doesn't switch on as well.
Guys please save me

I never had a huawei device before and probably never will since they don't allow their bootloaders to be unlocked before
After looking at the screenshot u provided it looks like your in bootloader mode or something

Bricked Mate 8. Touch functions no longer working

So to make things worse, I no longer have Touch function in TWRP, eRecovery, or any other pre-OS environment. Can anybody shed some light?

You reached the same dark place I reached one week ago...I tried to root b560 after upgrading to Nougat from b200 on L29 C158....but I could not and the system failed then I tried to go back to b200 ...My phone started to do strange things like failure to fast boot any ROM ..at last touch stopped ...Finally, I destroyed my phone when I purchased Credits on DC Unlocker and tried the second Method on their site ...The result was that my phone is dead (No power...No Battery Working....No charging ....Not recognised by PC) so I advise you to stop at this point till you find a way to fast boot Nougat....Do NOT go back to 4.1 as it will surely destroy your phone permanently....

Thanks. Do you have a link for the Nougat ROM I should use?
Nougat won't do a 3 botton restore. The problem is in the fact you deleted the inf files for touch. I have a friend that works at huawei that can fix this with out wrecking your phone. Pm message me.
When People more read in the Forum,no Problems with all.
I flash Nougat on my Phone as C636 or C432 and go back on Emui 4.0 or 4.1 and all without any Problem.

Stuck in ERROR MODE

I already wrote something like this in a similar thread, but for another device (read the device name wrong), so I thought i should post it in the right place.
I have been playing too much with stuff that i probably shouldn't have been so hasty about. So i have finally arrived here on the ERROR MODE (with unstoppable boot loop), which looks exactly like the bootloader only it says ERROR MODE instead of whatever, where i can't get into any other type of recovery or fastboot mode, no matter what button combinations i do. I previously could get to the fastboot mode, but i was still stuck so..... I made the very wise choice of relocking (since i hadn't tried that) my device, and now I can't even access fastboot (nothing. tried every button combination i can think of). So I am sitting here wondering if this is the end of the journey with my... relatively new phone... So, yes. No way of accessing anything and my phone is in a reboot loop i can't stop. Only thing is the error code i get "ERROR!":
"Func NO : 16 (lpm3 image)"
"Error NO : 1 (security verify failed!)"
Is there hope? or no?
Also noticed the light flashes green 3 times then red 1, then continues this pattern. Idk if that's useful or not.
Here's a pic.
It doesn't seem to have fastboot connection here, either.
OP were you ever able to fix this issue?
@Kimuchuu its not clear from OP had you relocked your bootloader if yes then you cant modify your system you need to have unlocked bootloader inorder to perform system modifications.
Ah. Yes, unfortunately I relocked it. I ended up sending it to service with no hopes of getting it back working, but they sent me a brand new one. So that's that.
I guess I was lucky, but really there was not a single thing I could do at that state.
You can be really happy that they sent you a new one, but it's not a unique case, in CZ there were few people who had same or similar issue and Repair service gave them new phone too.

I also had this problem, trying to screw around and force a ota update via flash fire onto a modified system... Reached rhe same sddor mode, luckily I was able to manually flash all the partitions back to stock using ADB and finally once all partitions were back in order it allowed me to enter recovery mode and download and install system software threw recovery... Took me about 4 days of non stop tinkering to finally get it working again, I had all but lost hope in all honesty... Thankfully I was persistent and all is well now!

I'm letting the battary drain so i can enter eRecovery. Hopefully dLoad works.
By the way does anyone know whats the difference between Recovery.img an recovery2.img?
I remember flashing one of them before relocking my bootloader.

Recovery is the one which installs ota updates . Erecovery is an emergency recovery. It can help u restore ur phone to previous version by flashing full original firmware
I got it back to work....
I dloaded the rollback update.app
and then the real stock software
I think the thing that saved me was that i flashed stock recovery before having the glorious idea of relocking the bootlaoder.
So for anybody:
If ur device is not working DO NOT LOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER

yup thats the main point if you are not fully stock and soft bricked you are not advised to lock your bootloader. Once you locked your bootloader you can no more modify your system.

Defective ONnePlus 7 ? Help me out pls

Ok so i will try to go straight to the point.
I got OnePlus 7 that i bought from Aliexpress (8gb and 256gb) the thing is that im almost 90% sure this phone is defective.
You can use teh phone correctly for about 2 days then all of a sudden it will freeze completely and then you CANT do absolutely anything else, not even turn it off by holding power button ..
So i just left it there until it ran out of battery.
Then i charge while inside the fastboot and when i try to boot it is in a boot loop , doesnt even go into the boot animation
and to make things even more interesting i tried to wipe data guess what? The phone screen suddendly started blinking until again it ran out of battery. (you could see for a split of a second every time the screen blinks the progress bar of the wipe but it never moved from initial point).
So yea at this point is pretty obvious that something is wrong so i bought a Mi9T Pro meanwhile but i dont want this phone to go to waste.
Anyone out there has a clue of what could be? I wanna attempt to fix it myself if possible.
Aliexpress just gave a bit of the money back and the company Hongkong Goldway didnt give a f and they even go as far as to pretend they don't know what i'm saying ( the language barrier when it beneficial for them ).
This was gonna be a short explanation but i guess it was neccesary to be this long to explain correctly whats going on.
BTW: the only way yo make the phone work again for 2 days mayebe 3 is by using the MSM tool , any other method doesnt work.
also when it was working i filled the whole 256gb to kinda check the internal memory for corruption but it actually filled up without any problem so idk .
The problem isn't the phone, the problem is you. Clearly you stuffed the phone up yourself by trying to mod/root it and now you have ruined it further by flashing incorrect images to the device.
You shouldn't be coming to XDA when the fault is entirely on you, I've seen it all before.
@PriPhaze is your device stock(bootloader locked) or modified in any way?

Thank you for the reply. Is the bootloader just unlocked or do you have installed anything like twrp, magisk or others?

Ahh yes twrp was installed but now it's inaccessible .
After the phone freezed I can no longer use twrp.
Also yes magisk was installed to restore my apps using swift backup.
OOS version is the last one available.

It might be a good idea to use unbrick tool and clean flash the stock OxygenOS, recovery and remove root to see if it behaves better.

I did, same behaivor ; in 2 days more less it will freeze and reboot and then system will be gone.
And so i need to use MSM tool again to get it back running. The only thing i have not tried is to use a custom ROM insetad of OOS

Maybe I did not understand correctly: Did you tried the stock rom without unlocking the bootloader and magisk? Or did you immediately unlock and install magisk immediately and then test?
The stock rom is stable and should work, otherwise a hardware issue can be the problem why you have those issues.

Yea tried with locked bootloader and then unlocked .
So yea maybe i wasn't clear enough but what i meant with the first post is that im 90% sure that here is a hardware issue but i dont really know what could be and there is not repair service in my country.
Thats why the only option i have left is to figure out what is wrong and change that part.
Iwas hoping someone could guide me to figure out which part i need to change.

Hmm, I can't tell you which part to exchange cause it can be the processor, flash for example which you cannot exchange. Battery might be an option, but that's not really the culprit imo...

Well in any case the cpu and internal memory are in the same board no? so that probably means i would need to change the whole board wich is 250US

Or you buy a device with broken screen and exchange the board /display. Depends how much you have to spent for this at all.

Ah yes, the common misconception that power shuts it off. Nope, not this phone. You have to hold power and volume up together to power off the phone when it crashes. Make sure you're using the latest platform tools (adb/fasboot) to unlock your phone. Make sure oem unlocking is enabled in developer settings after you've unlocked, having it disabled for some reason does screwy things. Mine was disabled once when I downgraded to Android 9 using the all in one tool available on xda, I thought I bricked the phone because it wouldn't boot after a reboot. Flash the latest oos twice through the system local upgrade feature, this will put the current oos on all partitions. Use the correct twrp, the unified versions found on xda 3.3.1-75 and 3.3.1-76 work well for me. The installer zip for those can be used in magisk to flash twrp after an OTA update before reboot. So, local upgrade 100% -> magisk modules "+" twrp 3.3.1-75 unified installer zip -> reboot to recovery -> flash magisk 20.3 at least (20.4 is available now). Do this twice so that everything is the same version on all the partitions. Lastly restore apps with swift backup without data, I know it's not ideal but may be necessary because some app's data may be corrupt and causing this. Good luck. Of course at any time you have it running you can reboot in safe mode (touch and hold restart until the dialogue pops up) and see how long you can use it without any third party apps to confirm that it is an app you installed.
Man I had the exact same problem as you and I got it fixed this morning after nights of fastboot commands trial and error found this thread forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-7-t3937478
Tried a few times before it worked but saved my phone all I had was fastboot mode and no recovery make sure to manually flash all fastboot commands you will then get stock recovery back wipe using all 3 options go 1st 2nd 3rd and then 1st wipe again after reboot phone might hang just force reboot and fixed
I really appreciate all the replies really but hmm im guessing there's a misunderstanding on what im saying.
I do know how to flash and recover one plus devices using MSM tool if neccesary, also to flash the fastboot rom .
The thing here is that everytime i recover the phone and all seems stable and working good , after a2 days more less it will random freeze of death and you cant even reboot holding power button NOTHING! is completely freezed.
So yea, thats pretty much it, i have tried already all that you said so far :c.

Pixel 5 Bricked

Hello all,
I did a big mistake, I wanted to go back from DP 3 to Android 11 and once I was going to do the CMD steps, I downloaded the wrong Firmware for the Pixel 5
I didnt see that mistake until I started the steps and the phone turned off and did not turn on anymore.
I know I made a big mistake, but can I do to revert this? I try to restart the phone but nothing, not via power button for 10 or 20 or 30 sec.
Please help

Mine bricked about a month ago and Google suggested uBreakiFix. They tried to do a force flash on it but it didn't work. They ended up replacing the motherboard which fixed it, but now my proximity sensor is always on. I don't know if they can fix that or if it will require another motherboard.
I have same problem, but i can go to bootloader. The problem my phone is locked bootloader and i don't have recovery mode. And when i try to flash it because of locked bootloader i can't do anything. Is there any solution for unbrick locked bootloader?

how did you end up with it like that with bootloader locked? what caused it?
I have the same issue like p_a_r_s_a7 with my Pixel 5.
Only fastboot mode: can't find valid operating system
After flashing the 'right' OTA image for Android 12 DP3 the device cannot be restored anymore.
The image was successfully flashed by 'adb sideload' as recommended.
Seems that a locked bootloader is not 100% save from 'flashed to death'
600 EURO paperwight.
I had this same issue on my 4a 5g and after many hours I managed to fix it. I don't recall exactly but I went through every option of flashing stock via fastboot and android flash tool it eventually worked this was 2 months ago

Android flash tool immediately detect the locked bootloader and stopped without flashing.
I've tried to check/uncheck every option but no luck. I've used Windows 10.
Did you used the common USB driver requested by Android flash tool ?
Anything else that could be special, eg Linux environment ( what distro, version .. )
Any detail could help..

Windows 10 laptop, adb minimal drivers, made sure device was detected, attempted through fastboot and android flash tool, that's the only things I remember my apologies.

I have the same issue like p_a_r_s_a7 with my Pixel 5.
Only fastboot mode: can't find valid operating system
After flashing the 'right' OTA image for Android 12 DP3 the device cannot be restored anymore.
The image was successfully flashed by 'adb sideload' as recommended.
Seems that a locked bootloader is not 100% save from 'flashed to death'
600 EURO paperwight.

Xiaomi M11 Ultra, Cannot restore. TWRP?

Ok here we go. I bought this new. I did a deleted Magisk which I should of not done. Somehow the root is screwed up. I am trying to get in the phone to restore it to like I bought it. There was an issue when I bought it with Magisk. Something about it needed to be an app. Anyway, When I do a reboot I have a choice of Reboot, Recovery, Soft Reboot , Bootloader. I want to flash a rom again and fix the Magisk so it has no errors. I have read and tried the different way to do this. I installed TWRP but cannot get it to come up on a boot because there is no home button on my phone. Any suggestions?
You can start from scratch and install the official ROM that's supposed to be on your phone via miflash
Then you can start fresh on ROM of your choice and clean install of twrp and magisk etc

U shouldn't do what u dont really know from beginning
Way to fix your problem: download miflash and fastboot rom file to flash it to stock rom (any region u want because of unlocked bootloader)

I was wanting to unroot the phone and it was supposed to unroot it when you uninstall Magisk. There already was an issue with Magisk from the start wanting it to be an app instead of a system app. Things went down from there. I have fastboot, recovery on it now. Just want to be able to download some apps that won't install because of root detection. Now I have a corrupted root thanks to Magisk.

You don't sound like you have put in much effort tbh
You should read more and watch some of those video tutorials before doing things that break your phone
The phone is not bricked. I cannot find the firmware for this phone. Weird. I have looked a a lot of firmware and cannot find one for this phone. it says M11 Ultra and Redmi Note 2 (hermes) the Android OS is 10 but the hermes I see are 5.0. Too old os. I do watch the videos. When I got this phone it already was not right with the rooting it came with. I did not want rooting because I cannot download certain apps I use. I went through the steps to delete root through deleting Magisk but from there it went to ****. The phone works. But there is corrupted root and fastboot keeps tapping out when I boot to it. Also Magisk was updated to 23.1 at the start and there was a conflict with that. Had I known this phone was rooted I would of never bought it. Also not sure if bootloader is open. My PC sees it just fine communicating with the phone through a program I have not figure out. What I have tried does not work. I don't need an ass chewing here. I just asked for some help. Thanks

Yes I have put effort for a week now. I assume I need the fastboot rom to get this. I cannot get TWRP to even come up on the phone. Fastboot always does.

Check and make sure "USB Debugging" is on under Developer Options. Once this done, from the command prompt, execute "adb reboot recovery". This will take you to recovery (TWRP in your case).

When you get to Setting, in the search bar type "OEM" and it will list "OEM Unlocking" in the search result. Clicking on this should help you get to OEM Unlocking option.

How much did you pay for it?
It cannot be a Redmi note 2 and a mi 11 ultra at the same time....
It sounds like the other said, a fake phone

Paid around $100 When I go to the settings it says device model M11 Ultra, BUT when I go to Regulatory Information it says Model Redmi Note 2 IC: hermes . Here is the link of the phone I bought. Again I cannot find the for sure Firmware for this. Not sure it is the right firmware. https://www.ebay.com/itm/144199997051?hash=item2192fd567b:g:MagAAOSwakdhP9I7

The phone works fine but its rooted and I don't want root. This all started because I followed what it said about removing root. Just do it through Magisk. That did NOT work. From there corrupt root. As for phone It works. But I cannot use my banking and investment apps on a rooted phone. That is the problem.

MTK6595, not much hope of resolving this without getting hold of seller and finding out the ROM producer and probably flashing again on a formatted system ( there are so many but a search on a browser may help). Flashing MTK systems are not hard, just need the correct ROM and leave it unrooted using SP flash tools. There are plenty of rooting bids for mtk's, so may be you can unroot too using the guides from a browser search. Unless you can return as an item not as described for a refund.
