Can't flash any recovery - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

I've unlocked the bootloader and flashed the Revolution Recovery B9, but I can't mount 'data' , so I modified the partition into F2FS and then formatted it. After that I couldn't enter to system, so I used three buttons to recovery the stock firmware. Now I can't reflash the TWRP and I can't add any goggle account.
What should I do?
Thanks before

What version p9 lite vns- ??
What do you want to install as firmware?
Info. If you wanted to be helped, helped too.

Hi,
have similar issue.
Bought P9Lite, originally on Vodafone UK/IE. VNS-L31C02B120.
Flashed B432 ROM which was OK, although changed to C900. Then I flashed something which was posted as UPDATE.APP. I thought it's an update, but then saw the size, was about 32MB. Since then it boots into Huawei eRecovery, which is uselless as it connect via Wi-Fi but does nothing. I can boot into fastboot/Recovery mode but thats it.
Tried flash Vodafone ROM but it stuck at 5%, no matter what I try to flash. The last when it booted still showed the Vodafone start up logo.
Any help appreciated...
Bootloader locked, no root.

1) Disconnect and power off.
2) Put a stock rom (UPDATE.APP) on SD card in folder dload and put it in the phone. If you have not, create folder "dload"
3) Hold down all 3 hardware buttons for cca. 10 second (Volume+ AND Volume- AND Power) until the phone enters EMUI system update mode and stars update from the SD card.
4) Phone will reboot and you have OS

i was trying the stock rom with update.app, i've downloaded huawei extractor, but when i put the update.app there....invalid or uknown file.
please i just want my phone back

I have screwed up my phone, please help me fix it

I have rooted the phone and was using a custom ROM from meticulus.co.vu as well as his custom twrp.
I have the VNS-L31 variant.
I wanted to roll back to stock because the fingerprint sensor didn't work due to me not clearing the saved ones when I changed ROMs.
What I did was factory reset the device, flash stock recovery, cust and boot (from update.app) onto the phone and then put update.app into the SD card in a dload folder. I then proceeded to hold the Vol+, Vol- and Power buttons to update manually. This didn't work because it said 'Software install failed'. Now the phone only boots into eRecovery and fastboot. I cannot get into TWRP despite flashing it multiple times through fastboot.
I am completely out of options, please help me xda.
EDIT: I managed to get it working - for those with a similar issue - download firmware finder and go through ALL of the models, one will work!
However, I cannot sign into google play...
Maybe this helps? http://www.techoxygen.com/bypass-google-account-unlock-frp-huawei-p9-lite-nexus-6p/

Huawei P9 Lite Brick I Need Help

Hi guys,
Yesterday, I unlocked my Huawei P9 Lite with the given code from EMUI, then I installed TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-venus.img) and installed SuperSU. All went okay, i managed to delete useless system app, but I realized i did not pass Safetynet Check anymore (and since i'm a PoGo fan..), so I uninstalled SuperSU and tried with Magisk, same issue. I uninstalled both, and couldn't get back the clean safetynet check.
There, I tried to install a official ROM for VNS-L31 xxxx361, but I did it wrong and the whole thing crashed. Now i'm left with no OS, phone is bootlooping for ever. The only things I can access if TWRP and Fastboot mode. I tried to flash img from a huawei release, but i get this error that scare everyone i asked about : remote : sparse flash write failure.
I've no idea how to not trash my phone and go grab another one if I ever want to make a phone call again!
Please help!!
Kindly,
Antonin
I had similar problem but I had no recovery just eRecovery and fastboot (which didnt let me flash anything).
Download FULL rom from:
hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=VNS
(sorry cant post links)
Make sure u choose right model and location.
Extract the update.app and put it on sdcard in folder named dload, insert that sdcard into the phone.
Boot to erecovery and shut down the phone from there, then turn on the phone with both volume buttons pressed and wait till the rom will be installed.
If you didnt success to boot with vol + and vol -, try to press power wait for vibration and quickly press both volume buttons and hold.

Full bricked my P9 Lite

Hello XDA'ers,
the Story in short if that's anyway possible:
I'm using a HUAWEI P9 Lite VNS-L31 (3GB RAM, Single-Sim, Austrian Stock ROM)
Long time ago after i've got in use with my Phone i flashed the European (Unbranded) VNS-L31C432B161.
Everything went fine and it was really stable, fast and what not.
But then i was just getting bored and was looking for other ROM's and found the "EliteROM V5".
Long talk short, i've flashed the modified TWRP (to Backup/Restore/Wipe Vendor, Product and Version paritions) and made a FULL TWRP Backup with every Partition (Boot,Data,Internal Storage,System,Vendor,Product and Version) and installed EliteROM v5 as described in their Guide and it was a full success.
But then i realized that there was some Bug's which got me really mad (like no Spotify Lockscreen Notifications).
So i've decided to go to TWRP and made a FULL WIPE of everything (Boot,Data,Internal Storage,System,Vendor,Product and Version) , formatted Data to ext4 (which was my original FileSystem before EliteROM) and used my Backup to restore every partiton, TWRP was showing that everything went fine.
From there everything went wrong, i've rebooted and it was still showing that the Bootloader was unlocked and booted with the default animated Android Logo (like the ones you see on Emulators).
Of course it had a Bootloop, i've wait about 30 minutes and the animated Android Logo was still present.
I've tried the Restore method so many times, i've also tried just a few partitions (like Vendor,Product,Version and System) but none of them was a success.
However, i've tried to flash the Stock ROM with the dload Method which didn't work (i did get a message something like the Installation Package isn't compatible with my current System).
I've tried to use fastboot to flash my stock rom manually (with fastboot flash boot/cust/system/recovery) which wasn't also a success but once i entered TWRP (after flashing TWRP back with fastboot) i've noticed that the console of TWRP was displaying "failed to mount /vendor (invalid argument), failed to mount /product (invalid argument).
After this long painful Hours i've decided to flash oeminfo from the original VNS-L31 for Single Sim over TWRP which was a success but after this my Bootloader got locked.
I've than Unlocked the bootloader once again but it was still the same. (invalid /vendor and /product).
Then i tried that one thing which i think got my Phoen bricked now, i've flashed the stock boot,cust,system via fastboot and tried to lock my Bootloader with fastboot oem relock XXX which ws a success.
Now after reboot i can't enter Recovery nor Fastboot, i've just the HUAWEI Logo with the powered by android symbol.
That's it.
As you can see it the Problem here was the failure of Restoring partitions.
So my Question now: Is it still possible to "Unbrick" my Phone or not?
Thanks for reading and maybe sharing my expierence with Backups and Restores and for every reply which may help.
best regards,
MarkusP87
Hi,
Follow steps HERE
Hello,
thanks for the link but as stated above i can't access Recovery nor Fastboot.
No matter which Buttons i press on Power i'm getting always HUAWEI Logo with "powered by android".
No USB Connection, i can just wait for the Battery to get low so that the Phone will turn off by itself.
best regards,
MarkusP87
Plug your phone on pc and just after the warning screen tip "fastboot reboot bootloader" (or juste before view a "charging screen" if warning screen don't appear).
You able to view bootloader screen now?
Hello,
no luck.
I just recognized that if my Battery is completely discharged it won't boot up the Phone unless i Press Vol Down Button (it will instantly Boot with Vol down) but still no PC nor fastboot connection.
In Attachment yo can see what i get when trying to boot up with VOL Down or VOL UP or VOL UP + DOWN + POWER.
Thanks for trying.
best regards,
MarkusP87
I've opened my Phone and removed the Battery and could boot into Bootloader , unlocked it and flashed TWRP.
Flashed Boot,Recovery,Recovery2 and System via Fastboot from VNS-L31C432B161 Stock Firmware without success.
Phone hangs still at "Your device is booting now..."
Also eRecovery (VOL UP + Down and Power) doesn't work.
And Console of TWRP shows:
Failed to mount /vendor (invalid argument)
Failed to mount /product (invalid argument)
Wiping or Change Filesystem of them don't work.
What else could i try to get my Phone working again?
I just want a Stock Firmware on it.
Thanks in advance!
best regards,
MarkusP87
Try this flash twrp wipe everything except sd maybe even format data and make sure data is on ext4 theb put the stock rom of your phone to /sdcard/dload the file name should be UPDATE.APP
(if you do this in twrp sdcard will be called external_sd then flash your stock oeminfo and shut the phone down then use dload 3 button method if theres no hardware problems your phone should boot up if its stays on huawei logo after flashing reboot stock recocery and factory reset and wipe cache this should fix it! Wish best luck for you
Hello,
tried your suggestions but they didn't work.
but nevermind, this thread can be closed, i've tried to flash every image from stock firmware over twrp and after reboot the Phone is completely death, doesn't even charge anymore.
thanks anyways for your replies!
best regards,
MarkusP87
Hey the same thing happened to me.. What you need to do now and I'm sure this will work just do everything
*Install the same TWRP from the Elite rom v5
*Reboot to recovery and go to "Mount"
*Enable everything (Cache, Data, System, Vendor, Product)
*Go back and then go to wipe > Advanced Wipe and wipe everything (Cache, Dalvik Cache, Data, System, Vendor, Product) Follow next step if wiping doesn't work now .
*Download region Patch for Elite ROMs (if you come from another region other than "C432") and put it in your sdCard https://goo.gl/JeQxdm
*Flash region patch before flashing Elite ROM and then (reboot) before flashing anything!
*Now again after you restart the phone, Reboot back to TWRP and wipe everything over again. And don't forget to change Data file system to f2fs
*Now download EliteRom v5 and Patch for VNS-l31 also download Launcher and sound fix and put them on your sdCard
EliteRom v5: https://goo.gl/AojsAf
Launcher and sound fix: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745849072291681155
Patch for VNS-L31: https://goo.gl/wXEvPD
*Now flash "EliteRom" then "Sound and launcher fix" then "Patch for VNS-L31"
*Now just reboot and tell me if you have any problems or if it didn't work because I have another way to fix it but I'm %100 sure it will work
---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------
Another way to fix it and if you wanna go back to stock rom
*Download this C432oeminfo from here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/zr6dn2m3sd4q81i/C432OemInfo-DUALSIM-P9LITE.zip
*flash it via TWRP
*Now download this rollback package from here: http://download-c1.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=93645&version=371484&siteCode=np
*Extract and put files in dload folder on your sd card and flash with the 3 button method.
*Now download this stock rom from here and don't use any other rom just use that one http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G753/g104/v83116/f1/full/update.zip
*Now again extract and replace the files with the new ones on your sdCard and install via the 3 button method.

Wait you said the phone won't even charge? But you need to get to fastboot to do everything..so idk but you can try this
Connect to pc and just before the screen turns on.. press and hold the volume down button maybe that will get you to fastboot
---------- Post added at 11:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 PM ----------
anyway if you manage to get to fastboot.. just do the things I said and it will work
Hello,
yesterday everything adb,twrp and fastboot was working.
I've tried to flash boot,recovery,recover2 and system via TWRP update.zip (opened UPDATE.APP in Huaweiextractor and clicked create flashable zip) after reboot i did get an "ERROR MODE" , Please Update System now.
With ERR FUNC (hifi image).
Then i tried to Flash the complete update.zip (extracted everything from UPDATE.APP) from a VNS-L31C432B161 Firmware.
After reboot my Phone was Death, it doesn't turn on anymore nor does it regonoize any usb cable.
I think it's done now.
Thanks anyways for your reply!

same happened to me, totally bricked (after upgrade to nougat) sent it to huawei service center and they replace it with new one, same model , just have to wait 3 weeks
Just a quick Update.
I've got my Phone back from a Service Center (not HUAWEI) off my Merchant.
They replaced the Mainboard so i have a new IMEI and Serialnumber.
So the Phone works now

Markus

Revert from Custom to Stock ROM on ALE-L21

Hi there,
I have (hopefully) a small problem going back from Custom ROM back to the Stock Huawei ROM. I didn't do a backup of the Stock, because i thought i can download it somewhere anyway, which probalbly wasn't the smartest thing.
So i downloaded a 6.0 ROM from h++p://consumer.huawei.com/za/support/phones/p8-lite/
I'm not sure, which version i need, so i downloaded the "ALE-L21, Android 6.0, EMUI 4.0, C185B561, Open Market, Southern Africa Cell C, TelKom" version, and tried the "Force upgrade" method which was written in the PDF. It says "Format SD Card", but doesn't mention, to which Filesystem i should format the SD Card to, so i tryed vFAT, followed the furthur instructions, but when i boot up the Phone with Vol Up/Down Pwr Button pressed, it vibrates shortly and stays on the Huawei Boot logo forever or until the Battery is flat.
So i tryed to examined the update.app file, and surely, its some form of archive, so i extracted the recovery.img from it and flashed it, because i thought i may need the stock recovery to get the Vol Up/Down Pwr Button method to work, but the recovery didn't boot with some error, so i reverted back to the TWRP and did get it work/boot again, but i'm now stuck to the custom recovery/ROM, and i don't want to go any further with this fastboot flashing methodes because i'm not entirely sure what i'm doing.
I know, this is probably a stupdid question, and those ALE-L21 Fanboys are laughthing at me (at least i hope so), but i wanted to ask if im missing something obvious or somebody is willing to help me out (which would be really nice).
Thanks in advance
