Bricked P20 EML-L29 after failed Custom Rom install - Huawei P20 Questions & Answers

Hello,
Its been a few months since i stupildly bricked my Huawei P20 when installing a Custom Rom. I managed to unlock the Bootloader and flash TWRP. But during the process of flashing the Rom the phone randomly restarted. Ever since then its been stuck on the booting screen as seen on the pictures.
What works is Fastboot, pretty much everything else is shot. I also didnt make a Firmware Backup, or i lost it.
Does anyone here have the ability to help me unbrick this thing, or have a C432 firmware for the EML-L29?
Thanks in advance!

Find a roll back package and download full update.app of L14 and install it with three buttom combination

Its little bit funny how many people have problem with rollback packages. Where you think is problem, in rollback packages or in low information about procedures, maybe low experience of each user...?

Its easy bro . Everyone gets this issue just beacuse of the lack of proper investigation.
It is even easy to revert to previous version when u do a good research in xda .

I had to use DC-Phoenix, which unlocked BL and flashed update.app. I couldn't do it manually, because my phone wasn't detected by adb devices and I didn't know that code you need for unlocking bl manually, dload method didn't want to turn on.

Flash stock recovery and then do the rollback, you should be fine. Then you can install TWRP and mess up your phone again

Yes, you only have to write "fastboot oem lock" . If you need to download an official image to get your watch clean, you can download it from https://developer.android.com/wear/releases/wear-preview-downloads, but download Oreo version, not Pie.

Even I was curious about this... I unlocked bootloader and was in need of the ROM for root.. Was confused and so put my activities on hold...
Now that I see one more device with V1.04, I will resume to root the device

I am currently rooted... With no issues...
Unlock Bootloader (Follow similar steps in RM3)
Install Magisk Manager App
Extract boot.img from the current rom, patch it.. Move it to PC and use fastboot to install the same..
you will be rooted..
BTW, had issues with EdXposed Module in Magisk.. Advise you to stay away from Xposed modules..

Glad, you have a rooted device... But please be careful with root as we do not have an unbrick tool available for RM3S... Definitely you dont want an semi-brick device... A word of caution...

I wouldn't mess around at all with your rm3s. We have no way of recovering properly because we have no unbrick tool. Leave it as is. I have a non booting rm3sz that is only 3 days old. Its a $500 paperweight at this point? Might just sell it for parts.

Agreed... I will not mess up with the device if it already rooted... Given that we do not have the unbrick tool.. I am wondering why we would need to go back to stock with locked bootloader? When returning the device to nubia for support? Ignore it as they will be able to identify if the device was unlocked or rooted... So waste of efforts..

Question Hard brick

Hello good to all,
It turns out that I have the device with a hard brick and I can't find a solution to repair it, I've been looking for a similar thread, but nothing. It won't let me in, it's not fastboot, not in recovery or anything, and if I turn it on normally I get: The current image have been destroyed...
How I got to this situation, was after rooting the device with a tutorial here, which worked perfectly for me. It was later when I had the great idea of closing the bootloader with the rooted device, and since then it gives me this error.

1)Just go to service center , if phone is in warranty , they will just flash the device with STOCK ROM using msm tool (best )
2)however they might even replace motherboard for no reason but that will also fix the device (time taking)
3) last option is to use paid msm flashing services costs from 5to 10$ USD , you can find them by Google search (risky)
I had about the same problems, my GT Neo 2 does not load fastboot further. The cyclical startup process is repeated.
Stupidly, I understand now, I decided to wipe data in TWRP recovery
This is what it looks like - youtube
I tried to install custom recovery from this topic, all stages passed without problems, but at the end after rebooting fastboot loops
Have you solved this problem, if so, in what way?
udp
installing this method
but root I couldn't get here
I tried to unlock twrp using the magic installation, but the problem described above appeared
I think I have the same problem as others. Realme appears and restarts continuously. It does not go into fastboot because the boot loader is blocked. What can I do?

Question [SOLVED] Looking for LE2113 boot.img from update 13F17

Hello,
My phone is crapped coz I flashed a wrong boot.img on it after messing up the update (forgot to flash magisk and lost root). I can access Fastboot still but that's about it. IF anyone can provide the right boot.img for that device that would be grately appreciated.
I'll use it to see if I can restore my phone and then patch it correctly this time.
Thanks for any help

I strongly suggest with the shape you've gotten yourself into to plug into a PC using the correct msm tool from here https://onepluscommunityserver.com/list/Unbrick_Tools/ and restore your device to factory conditions and start fresh .
