endless bootloops and no solution :( - Huawei P8 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I´ve got some big problem wth my P8.
I rooted and flashed TWRP some days ago.
Yesterday and I wanted to install an update, OTA isn´t workng with root and TWRP, so I extracted the B170 update for my GRA-L09 with HuaweiExtractor and flashed the built zip, but now my P8 keeps on getting bootloops at huawei-startscreen.
Every try to restore an TWRP-backup ands up with the same sh*t and installing the update from dload on the SD with booting per volume up + down also ends with an error.
When I connect the phone in TWRP to an PC it also didn´t recognize the size of internal memory at all.. it only says internal memory.. for the SD it keeps saying me it has around 59GB..
and TWRP only says the internal memory is around 4GB, but it has to be around 11GB belive
I think something destroyed the internal partitions on my phone.
Is there a way to flash an update.app direct from pc or to restore faulty partitions?
Hope someone couldhelp me, the phne is only 3weeks old

try the three bottoms way update
but the dload file is formated sd card and shut down the phone and use the volume down and up and power at the same time and it will install the update.app but you must have stock recovery

Can you still enter TWRP? Have you tried doing a Factory Reset?

I try one more time with dload on formated sd and three buttons.. we will see
and yes, I can enter twrp and can flash all sort of img´s in fastboot and switch between twrp and stock recovery.. but installing an full rom isn´t working.. factory reset and so on were done countless times..
Edit: now it´s getting worse.. twrp is still working, BUT after last attempt with 3-button-method I can´t touch anything, only power-button is working, no unlock or so on

is there some possibility to flash the phone with SPFlashTool to recreate partitions?
is it possible to get this repaired at a huawei-center? i´ve only unlocked bootloader and flashed twrp, but did not install root.. should relock bootloader be enough?

Try to "factory reset" in TWRP and then install the stock recovery via fastboot again. I had the same problem like you before, but this fixed it. If it doesn't we could speak on Skype, if you want too.

This isn´t possible at all anymore.. fastboot always ends up saying "FAILED (data transfer failure (unknown error))"
Seems my phone phone now is not only bricked, after all these trys it is really bricked

Don't you have any insurance, return policy or so?
Also, did you started fastboot via "CMD" with elevated rights ( Admin ) ?

I have insurance.. but will they repair it, after all I have tried?!?
fastboot is working for example "fastboot devices" or so on.. only flashing ends up giving errors

So now my P8 was repaired because of damaged mainboard..
the situation now is, I have a full twrp-backup of my old device, but of course with the old IMEI.. now with a new mainboard it also has a new IMEI..
so can I restre my old backup, when keeping the EFS with the new IMEI or wont this work, because the backup was made with another IMEI?
can somebody tell me, if this is going to work?

hi
i same problem way ?

Try to flash this custom rom via recovery "do full wipe" , when your device work, then you can go back to stock rom via updater app. Or you can stay in this custom rom If you like it.
Here is the link for the custom rom :

Hi Guys
Is there posibility to flash stock rom via TWRP ?
thnx

for me the only way was to send it for a repair and get the mainboard exchanged.. flash via TWRP should work, if you have a rom in zip-format.. the huawei-roms itself aren´t compatible!

but twrp supports flashing .zip and .img too there is toggle button.. I have flashed B170 bootloader.img and stock recovery ,.. and phone is even more bricked..
There is no TWRP anymore and goes straight to Rescue Mode.. but I can still boot to fastboot but it says phone unlocked but in reality phone is not unlocked because when I tried to flash recovery via fastboot flash recovery recovery.img it threw at me ''not allowed ??? so why phone says unlocked then ??
how much did u have to pay for motherboard ?

Huwei P8 L09 stuck in bootloop many tips tried, none worked

Hello,
I own a Huawei P8 L09, bootloader unlocked, rooted and with TWRP recovery.
I tried this morning to flash a new rom using TWRP recovery.
Problem is that I do believe I wiped to many partitions and I ended up with a bootloop.
I could at first access 3 times the emui erecovery (btw, Wifi recovery failed) but not anymore (is it related to the battery level ? I don't know how much I still have)
Following a lot of threads here and on some other forums (I've been searching now for approx. 7 hours...) :
I downloaded a update stock ROM (B170 something), I extracted Boot, System, Recovery and Cust
I entered bootloader mode (it's the only mode I can go to; recovery No, Download mode neither)
and on my computer I typed in the cmd "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" same with system, cust and boot.
All of them said "Okay" but the bootloop is still there and I can't acess any other mode or shut the device off.
Also, my bootloader indicate that i'm "unlocked" but when I try to do something as :
"fastboot erase cache" it says "remote: not allowed" or something like that.
I tried the SD card flash method but I can't even acess the 3-button mode (doesn't work - bootloop again).
Finally, I've got 2 questions :
1) Is there a solution ? Is there/was there anybody in the same situation ?
2) Does the battery level influence wether I may or not enter any mode ? like b.e. under 30% I can't access recovery or something like that ?
Thanks in advance for your help and sorry for my bad english.
Greetings from Belgium !

Hi!
I have the same situation as you do, All i know is that you can access the eRecovery only if you're plugged in.
But it's completely useless. Have you found any solutions yet?
Edit:
i struggled and i'm still struggling but i figured out that I need the recovery and boot img of the version i was on previously. In my case that is B350.
The main mirror is down but i managed to find another one: https://mega.nz/#!NAcgQY7Y!I4eRfkaq62J31csv_wZ8_nTzmUbWPX71JUicDysjus8
after flashing them i was able to partially flash (using vol+-&pwr) B170 (it only went up to 90% with my USB attached, fails without USB)
At my surprise it booted B170 even if it didn't complete, however right now it keeps rebooting every minute. I'll update if i manage to fix this
I have the same problem as you both. To flash boot.img and other files by fastboot we need to unlock bootloader. To unlock bootloader we need to have Imei, Product Id and SN, but I can't read it because phone won't turn on.
Anyone know how to get this info?
you can read these info from the packaging box!
I managed to fix my issues (i believe) by continuously flashing and flashing versions. I never really managed to fully OTA update to 100% due to some "CUST error" but from B350 i managed to "update" to B170, then to B200, then to B321a.
Now i just installed TWRP and rooted it and on the process of installing xposed (if possible).
I wasted a good 6-7 hours on everything already
Well now I actually sent my phone in repair, given that it still was under warranty.
If they return it unrepeared, i will try it your way, Nikooo777. Thanks.

Help unbricking my huawei p8

Hello everyone, I have a huawei p8 vodafone it branded.
I decided to root it, unblocked the bootloader and everything was good so far...
I tried to flash a custom recovery but failed for some reason and I decided to stick with stock recovery.
Now I installed an app as system app and my phone got bricked. my fault..
At first It went trough a bootloop and I was not able to access the huawei recovery or the fastboot, after a while it started to boot into a error message where it was saying that it was impossible to read user data partition, and give me some choices like backup, update to the latest version, or data factory.. I choose data factory twice but it went trough a bootloop again only to give me back to the same page after a while.
I can access huawei erecovery but it gives me getting info package failed when it says that I have to update it with wifi.
I can access fastboot mode and it says me that the phone is unlocked.
I really don't know what to do as I'm not expert, I tried to read various topics but never saw anyone with this message where it was saying impossible to read user data partition..
I had emui 3.1 5.1.1 with vodafone it brand... In case I have to flash it which firmware I should look for? Or is there a way to get my phone alive again without flashing?

Hey thank you silvano, can you tell me which firmware I need to flash it? Is it okay if I use a b170 even if I had the 5.1.1 emui 3.1 version?
Nothing, I can't seem to make it work, I've flashed the boot.img recovery.img system.img and cust.img successfully(b170) but still stuck in bootloop, I can enter bootloader mode, and recovery.. but when I enter recovery it says me that I need to update it and I can't update it because it says me that getting info package failed... tried with different wifis, same result..... The excatly same thing happens with the b132 stock rom too and I cant factory reset or even wipe cache if I dont make this update first as is the only option avaible on huawei eRecovery.
As last attemp I tried to force an upgrade with putting UPDATE.APP inside the sdcard and press vol up vol down and power for booting but this combination of buttons doesnt work...
I'm hopeless, I really don't know what to do... any help would be much appreciated

Bricked Zuk Z1

Hello,
Ok, here is the situation
I have a Zuk Z1 with last COS update 12.1 with locked bootloader, no root etc ... (I didn't touch anything).
Yesterday, it reboot by itself but I got bootloop (starting apps then again lenovo boot image ...)
I try to factory reset by using the recovery metohd, it's start normally (optimizing apps ...) but then reboot and again bootloop ...
So I try to sideload the official COS ROM from Cyanogen Support (cm-12.1-YOG4PAS9IG-ham-signed-d4fc2c5394.zip), but the sideload stuck at 47% and saying total xfer: 1.00x and the phone go back to recovery but still have boot loop ...
I try to boot in fastboot and use the All In One tool to flash official ROM but didn't work (Its say that the bootloader is lock)
I find without knowing this menu a debugging hardware tool test, and then I run the test, its say SD : Fail and in another I got SD : Fail and no sd fuse in dir
I saw many thread here and on google, and some say that we have to use qfil/qpst method, and find this which seems complete : http://www.androidbrick.com/lenovo-zuk-phones-qfil-roms-unbrick-guide/
But as I don't know if its hardware issue or soft brick ...
Could someone help me to recover my phone to COS or CM by using the right method ?
Thank you !

Go with qpst/qfil method to recover your phone
And did you tried changing the USB port or cable while side loading cos ROM .. Cause most of issues are solved by the changing USB port or cable.. So try this.. Or else qfil is the option

If ADB is working,just flash your original (firmware) RECOVERY,BOOT and SYSTEM.img from the update.app zip file...after flashing those 3 img file,just reboot via adb...fastboot reboot
Phone should be like new

Another thread about bricked nova

Hi.
CAN-L11
Unlocked bootloader, rooted etc.
When i want back to factory settings, twrp show me information about encrypted data. So i vipe data (found this solution in google...) and when phone boot up there is error about unsuccesful decrypt data or something like that.
At next im boot into fastboot and flash by fastboot firmware boot, recovery,system and cust from update.app.
At now when i turn off phone i see only information "my phone is untrusted.... device is booting now" and nothing happens.
When i try to recovery firmware from sdcard (dload folder) it stuck at 5%.
What can i do ? I read many threads about that and there is many possible solutions but i dont wanna to make a bigger mess with my phone.
Sorry about my english
Unplug USB cable. Try another update.app?
DC-unlocker is a good solution bro, i had serious problem and i fixed and i get official nougat android,i have nova dual sim...
