What's your build number what version of supersu did you try to flash?
Shutdown your device, put your current build onto 'dload' folder in the sdcard and press the following key combo: POWER, VOL-UP & VOL-DOWN, it should enable automatic update process

Shut it down amd press those 3 keys combo.. upon seeing Huawei Logo and vibration, release the Power key while holding the other 2... That ought to do it

Man, your phone is badly bricked. If you don't have at least access to fastboot, then you're screwed.

Good for me to I have the same problem. I was trying to get to stock ( I have made it several times), but the last time was a fail... The whole process of sending firmware was ok. then a reboot and brick.
Now the huawei screen and the short vibration appears and shutdown.
I was trying everything.
In device manager the phone is displayed as mobile devices \ volume f:\ (drive letter)
in connected devices the phone is detected as
hi6210sft
Phone is not detected in fastboot or ADB.

I met this problem yesterday(I hope the identical ). Because I have two booting animations, one from Vodafone, I guess I shutdown early during installation. It just froze. Then it didn't boot and stock recovery didn't help
My solution needs some recovery software like twrp. Press three buttons at the same time until twrp mode. Copy zip file for SuperSU to phone or sdcard, then flash it. After that my phone works again.
You mentioned that you cannot start recovery. Try more. After installing twrp, starting it is quite annoying. Sometimes it just doesn't start or stock recovery starts. An alternative way is to go to whatever mode, and try adb or fast boot to reboot to recovery. Pressing button requires techniques which j don't have

I can't enter TWRP non combination is working for me. Installing firmware using dload from sd card also.

okay if non of these worked you can try flashing the whole update.app file by fastboot..
tools you will need
1- download the official huawei firmware from the official site
2- download Huawei Update Extractor
3- download minimal adb and fastboot
check the unbricking chapter of this thread
Note: to get in fastboot make sure you connected your phone to computer and press the vol down and power down buttons.. if none of these worked your phone is hard bricked .-. .. try opening the phone and reconnecting the battery worked with someone
if you need any help just pm me or replay on this thread hope that help you

Ok thx. I have already opened the phone to reconnect the battery
And then I was trying the combinations;
Battery connected vol- +power - Huawei logo and vibration and shutdown, no fastboot
Battery disconnected, vol-+power and connecting cable to phone - the same
Battery disconnected combination vol + vol - + ppwer, with sd card dload, the same
Battery connected combination vol + vol - power, sd card dload, the same
Any other suggestions?
The phone is recognized in Windows in device manager as mobile device as volume with a letter, I cant change the drivers to the right ones. I can't enter the storage it's unrecognized format.

Any other suggestions?

it is easy to suggest others.. I too advised you.. but today i am facing the same problem...
what I tried:
Reinstalling the same ROM using dload method
Upgrading to other ROM (using both dload and flashing 4 image method)
Downgrading
Restoring from the backup
At one point, the phone booted up all well except the Wifi Module... So I flashed another ROM and stuck again...

the worst thing that I don't have any connection to fastboot Each firmware installation method fails

yes, mine too... or I could say flashing succeeds but there's some problem with the boot partition... will get my phone today from the Customer Care and try again (if they can't repair).
you can try removing the back cover and unplugging the battery... that is one of the few things I will do today as I get my phone back..

ok made it back.. just flashed the boot.img from b594 (the one I was using when my mobile got bricked)... somehow made it back. But now I am having a problem with the battery. It doesn't charge when the device is switched on, only when the device is switched off... will see for few days, if there's problem will take it back to service centre again

I have already removed back cover and was trying to reconnect the battery to do clear run. But the only thing is discovered in windows is a driver for storage and I can't change the driver to ADB or FASTBOOT
Now I have connected phone w PC on adb devices I see only emulator-5554 device. In Device manager I see the storage as a Mobile Device.
Nope it was Bluestacks

Switch off your device and then connect it to PC but just hold the volume- key.. that should get you in fastboot mode... I did that and then flashed the boot.img of the current ROM. This should boot it up...

Nope it doesn't work I was trying it already

[Q] Unbricking Zte Blade 3

First of all thanks for not caring. I spend days on Internet trying to find a solution. I have Blade which I bricked thanks to my noob skills with flashing and similiar ****. I just want my normal phone back. Couldn't give a **** bout roms anymore. Sorry for the lang but Im mad. When I boot it up it just sits there on green android logo not going past. I can enter download mode if it matters. As soon as I back it up Im getting rid of cwm mode and bull****. I use my sister phone to transfer files on my sd card. I cant enter my recovery mode since I installed that **** of cwm.When I try the key combo-android logo stuck with red light on. My phone has 90-100% battery Im sure. I need a solution where I can do something from pc with download mode or something that will automatecly start when I boot up my phone that I transfered on my SD card. Please guys let me have some sleep. I've been staying all night long just to unbrick it. Dont mention any flashing rooting ****ing...I developed alergy to those words. I want it simple ..please...any help is appreciated. And sorry for my language.

Calm down dude. If you can get in Download Mode , you are lucky. I even know people who had not get to Download Mode and had began to cry , cause the phones were only 3-4 Weeks old. Back to your problem.]First download here the stock rom.[/URL]
Then you need the Android SDK and the platform-tools from Google , so download it , cause you need ADB. Click here to get Android SDK.Then you need the ZTE drivers. Click here to get the drivers.Now get into download mode and connect the device via USB to your PC. Copy the boot.img (or recovery.img if it is in the ZIP package) and flash it via Fastboot (command: fastboot recovery.img) . Now you got the stock recovery. Now push the FULL update.zip at your sdcard , and now go to recovery , and update from sdcard , choose the update.zip ... Flashing takes a while. DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING BEFORE OR AFTER CHOOSING "UPDATE.ZIP" . Now your Phone should fully works normally
Hello, I have also bricked ZTE BLADE 3(I flashed a wrong kernel....). It only turns the red light on when i turn it on and blank screen, does not respond to vol + and vol - key, no android logo, but when I connect it to the computer via usb in Device Manager a COM port opens with the name ZTE DFU(Diagnostic interface). If anyone has experience of reviving this device from this mess? Thank you for your time

Your download screen is destroyed , but you are still able to get into it.
Try to get into it and flash the kernel with fastboot , the screen will bug during fastboot procedure.
My screen is completely blank and black, just the red light showing when i turn it on and it is always on. It does not respond on power button + vol. down, power button + vol. up, power button + vol. down + vol. up. When I connect it to the computer it does not show me a usb flash drive although I have the zte drivers installed and another sd card inside, but in Device Manager I can see it as a COM port(DFU) Diagnostic Interface. I tried accessing the bootloader via adb but it doesnt even list it with command "adb devices". I also tried flashing the recovery image via "fastboot recovery recovery.img" and "fastboot recovery.img" and still no luck, it just hangs at "waiting for device"...

I think so too.. but how? The only method left is JTAG... I saw a thread about using a TPT image to flash low level firmware using ZTEflash.exe but that thread was for ZTE Skate I think, I could not find the tpt.img file for zte blade 3.... Is there any other method via usb cable? Or send it to the shop?
Well, here is my situation:
Got a BLADE III Pro
Tried to root it and i played with few tools found on xda and other places (android forums). No luck at all. Tried to flash a CWM and NO LUCK neither. Tried to go back to flash stock CWM (as i was afraid of bricking it), searched for stock cwm and there is my BRICKED phone. When trying to hold volume down and power botton (both for over 20 seconds even) it will show a green android and its stuck there for hours. When trying to go to fast boot mode the same happens (with volume up and power botton).
While trying these two options the PC (Windows 7 64 bit) wont recognize the phone pluged in.
The only way the PC makes a sound is when i hold both volume up and down bottons and power it or plug it in the PC (without the battery even).
I need to know how can i fix it to boot only. PLEASE. Is this a "throw on can" phone now or it can be brought to life? PLEASE TELL ME PEOPLE.
pm me or any info as soon as you guys can.
I will respond to any question you might have.
Thank you in advance.
I have sent my phone to the shop and they said that they would need a jtag box specific for this model or a new motherboard for zte blade 3.... I think this the end for my zte blade 3

Deleted everything in TWRP. And after a few tries to fix it, TWRP has gone too!

I have no android, and twrp seems to have been overridden by the stock thing. Which only has the options to restore to factory settings(that's not gonna help!) and clear partition. (did it but it didn't help).
When turning it on, it goes from the Huawei logo to the "your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted", which it gets stuck on if I don't do anything. Then if i hold vol up and power, it restarts, and does it again. Though if i do it faster I can get to the recover that has the two options.
There's also another screen it goes to which has reboot, shutdown, and download latest version and recovery. The download latest version and recovery makes me connect to wifi then says "retrieving package" but then says failed.
I'm not tech savy, and only started doing all this rooting/going under the hood. Because I'm trying to fix the play store/anything google related not working. Now I appear to have softbricked(hard?) the phone. If I take it to a chop shop do you think they'll be able to fix it? Or do you know what I can do?

He doesn't need this, download c432 OEMINFO and flash it, it'll lock your bootloader, unlock it again and reflash TWRP via fastboot (bootloader) then download and flash C432B370 update + data and flash it then reboot. Any other C432 ROM will work too
it was vns l31
I already unlocked my bootloader before though. I also rooted it.
Do you have a link to a rom I can download?
will one of these work?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...huawei-p9-lite-firmware-compilations-t3517124
I'm in europe do I download VNS-L31C432B151 - Full Europe?
Ok, I've booted into bootloader.
The screen has a circle with EMUI inside.
And 3 options
"Reboot system now"
"Wipe data/factory reset"
"wipe cache partition"
I plugged in a usb cable, and heard the connected sound. So my computer detects it.(yay!)
by terminal you mean cmd, right? I'll do that now.
EDIT
Typed "fastboot flash recovery recovery_twrp.img"
it said waiting for any device...
So my computer doesn't detect the phone, I quit cmd and it an error came up saying "couldn't mount file the disc image is corrupted".
I'm scared I've bricked my phone. What If I put android on an sd card, and press vol up, vol down, and the power button. To get it to update? Will that fix this?
EDIT 2
by pressing power and vol down. i can get to a fastbot and rescue mode. Will this help me? It says connect usb cable to computer, and open hisuite... device still not listed under cmd though.
EDIT 3
Hisuite opens everytime I plug my phone in, but it doesn't say a device is connected. Can't do anything to it in cmd, because it's not recognised. No android, no twrp, no connection to computer...
If I put a rom on the an sd card, and put it in my phone, will I be able to install/flash it?
Are you certain your bootloader is unlocked? Just double check by trying to unlock it.
I unlocked my bootloader a few days ago. When I turn on my device it says it's been unlocked and can't be trusted. Now that android has been deleted I can't try to unlock it again. And I'm pretty sure it's already unlocked.
I just need some help on how I can make this device usable again. There's no OS, no TWRP, and it isn't detected by my computer. I think my only option is putting android on an sd card. Will that work?

Yes it will, as long as it's the same region Cxxx
region Cxxx? Sorry still new...
EDIT
oooh, region Cxxx was the thing before the Bxxx. Damn I didn't save it and can't check because android is gone. I remember the first number being a 4 though. I think.
Also after I've put it on the SD card. I just have to press power, vol up, and vol down. To install it, right?

this is where you want to be.
in fastboot mode. connected to the computer, then use this tool to flash twrp
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...nt/europe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873
then, boot into twrp by rebooting with power+ vol+
then mount the sd card in twrp and create a "dload" folder then copy an update.app file for your phone into it and
theeeen boot with power+ vol+ +vol- and it will write your rom
easy peasy.
Thanks velles2003! I'll try it shortly

Bricked :(

I think I may have bricked by M3 . Willing to paypal someone for a solution. Am unable to get into fastboot and it hangs at "your device is booting now...." no matter what button combo I press.
Have tried battery drain trick as well.
Have you tried creating a dload folder on your internal storage or sd card? Put the update.app for your model in there and then press power and up and down volume buttons at the same time.
Probably the only solution is to use an older version of ROM even if for Europe or whatever. Put in dload folder. Follow regular directions for that (two files). Get that older version working. Then unlock bootloader, install TWRP, then try upgrade again. I think I had to install TWRP 5 before it could be used for the upgrade to current ROM (EMUI 5).
I'm having the same problem as OP. The dload folder in the sd card method is apparently not an option as volume up + down + power doesn't enter the recovery mode. It either will just hang at "your device is booting now...." or it will flash the red charging symbol.

I have unfortunally exactly same problem.
When trying the button combo to enter recovery have you got the usb cable plugged in to your tablet?
Are you trying a non 5.0 build? Mine did what yours did and won't build with a 5.0 build. Try a 4.1(?) build and it should eventually boot (after a good while).
I have the same symptoms.

I think I bricked my P10 Lite. Need help please

I was messing with my P10 Lite and I accidentally wiped the Vendor partition (not sure if I wiped anything else) with TWRP. After the phone rebooted it said something about a critical error during boot and went into erecovery. It gave me two options( I don't remember the second one) and I chose factory reset. It started doing it's thing but I guess something went wrong because it wasn't able to boot and it started to bootloop.
I managed to get into fastboot once. The bootloader and FRP should be unlocked but I am not sure as I think I semi accidentally used the command to relock the bootloader in the hopes of it doing the automatic low level factory reset. After that restart, the phone wanted to boot up but after the Huawei logo it went into the EMUI logo which I've shown in the pictures. Now I can't use any button combination and can't enter any menu. I also can't shut down the phone as it bootloops into the EMUI logo after I press the power button. I opened the phone and turned it off by detaching the battery cable but after holding the power down key and plugging the usb cable into the phone it still boots into the EMUI logo right after the Huawei logo.
I guess not being able to enter fastboot is the major issue and after hours of googling I am yet to find a solution.
Edit: I am a newb!
Please help!
Why did you delete the vendor partition, you could try plugging the phone into your computer and checking if you can do anything with fastboot while it's showing emui logo?

I've already tried that. I've placed the appropriate files into my SDcard but I can't use any button commands including volume up+down+power. When I press them my device just boots into the EMUI logo and nothing happens.
Edit: It boots into the EMUI logo even if I only press the power button. Pressing volume down + usb also boots me into the EMUI logo

Power OFF the phone.
Press and Hold VOL Down and connect the phone to PC via USB cable. The phone should boot into Bootloader (fastboot mode). Does this method work?
or try this:
Press and Hold VOL Up and connect the phone to PC via USB cable. The phone should boot into eRecovey mode and then then select "Download latest stock rom and install".

Ok, it seems like not all is lost about my phone. I managed to get into fastboot. In my situation, pressing volume down + usb cable while the battery was plugged into the phone did not work. That was before I opened up my phone's case and disconnected the battery cable.
As I mentioned before, I had opened my phone and disconnected the battery cable because that was the only way to shut it off.
What I did after I disconnected the battery cable was the following:
1 - Hold volume down and don't release it
2 - Plug in USB
3 - Plug in the battery cable into the phone's mobo.
That booted me into fastboot. Right now, the phone says my bootloader in unlocked and my FRP is locked. What would be the best way to flash the new stock OS on my phone?

I have downloaded THIS and THIS for the new OS but by talking with Alexxxx1 in THIS discussion I learnt that Huawei has implemented a security patch in their latest update, which I've most likely installed, that prevents you from rolling back your OS version. That means I need to install the .386 version, which should be the last if I am not wrong, instead of the .378 correct? Though I heavily dislike patches like this I guess I can't do anything about that...

$25 Paypal TO *YOU* for fixing VKY-L29 boot issues / possibly brick

Hey guys,
A friend of mine handed me a phone I used a few years ago - a Huawei P10+. The problem is, it won't boot. A friend offered a small bounty - so I thought I'd extend that small bounty to people here for immediate assistance. If you take Paypal, there $25 USD up for grabs if your links/instructions and assistance lead to unbricking - correct booting of the phone....
WHAT WE KNOW:
- VKY-L29 dual sim phone
- Previously been successfully rooted and was functioning fine
- Previous User may have tried wiping EVERYTHING (unsuccessfully, obviously) for re-installation of stock ROM
THE PROBLEM:
The phone displays the white/orange text screen, stating "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted. To learn more visit: http://zh.ui.vmall.com/emotiondownload.php?mod=restore
(1) Press power to continue .... nothing happens when pressed
(2) Press volume up for 3 secs to enter ERecovery to restore your device ... this works, but CANNOT download, or fails to download package over WIFI (only other options are to shutdown/reboot)
(3) Your device will continue to boot 5 seconds later if no operation ... nothing happens, it just hangs on this screen - even when prompt shows "Your device is rebooting now"
It doesn't matter if this stays rooted or not, we just need to successfully reinstall the STOCK ROM and booting/functioning normally.
Any assistance is appreciated.

Hey guys,
A friend of mine handed me a phone I used a few years ago - a Huawei P10+. The problem is, it won't boot. A friend offered a small bounty - so I thought I'd extend that small bounty to people here for immediate assistance. If you take Paypal, there $25 USD up for grabs if your links/instructions and assistance lead to unbricking - correct booting of the phone....
WHAT WE KNOW:
- VKY-L29 dual sim phone
- Previously been successfully rooted and was functioning fine
- Previous User may have tried wiping EVERYTHING (unsuccessfully, obviously) for re-installation of stock ROM
THE PROBLEM:
The phone displays the white/orange text screen, stating "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted. To learn more visit: http://zh.ui.vmall.com/emotiondownload.php?mod=restore
(1) Press power to continue .... nothing happens when pressed
(2) Press volume up for 3 secs to enter ERecovery to restore your device ... this works, but CANNOT download, or fails to download package over WIFI (only other options are to shutdown/reboot)
(3) Your device will continue to boot 5 seconds later if no operation ... nothing happens, it just hangs on this screen - even when prompt shows "Your device is rebooting now"
It doesn't matter if this stays rooted or not, we just need to successfully reinstall the STOCK ROM and booting/functioning normally.

Boot in eRecovery by holding the Volume Up button, after booting in eRecovery just download the latest package via connecting to a Wi-Fi network and it should boot up just fine.

Try downloading an older firmware extract the contents of the .app file using huawei firmware extractor and flash system.img recovery_ramdisk.img oeminfo.img product.img and vendor.img using fastboot and if the phone boots up just update it to a newer firmware, that's how i did it to my P10 Plus, it didn't wanna download via eRecovery too, sorry for the misunderstanding i forgot that it doesn't wanna download for you, i don't have the device with me now because i broke my display (again) so it's getting fixed but it won't be done untill saturday, i'll upload the firmware i used so that you can try too.
if the bootloader is unlocked flash twrp using the command: fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk "path to TWRP.img"
after flashing type: fastboot reboot and immediately start pressing the Volume Up and power button untill the HUAWEI logo shows up, after booting to TWRP flash oeminfo.img using the install option in TWRP, after that reboot and try downloading the firmware using eRecovery again, hopefully this time it will let you download it.

Dude pls wait don't try this i found another way, i bricked my phone accidentally today and i found a way, gonna take me some time to explain but i'll try my best.
So first of all download this firmware here extract it on your pc and boot to bootloader and flash TWRP_kirin.img to recovery_ramdisk, after that reboot the phone and boot in recovery via holding the volume up and power button, when in TWRP copy the dload folder from the firmware you extracted on your pc to your phone after that copy the RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img to your phone and flash it as recovery ramdisk via the install option in TWRP, power off your phone and press and hold the volume buttons and the power button and wait for it to boot and let it install the update, i really hope this helps you, it helped me after struggling with it all day long.
Hi Lester, it's been an eternity since I was online here as I put this on the back-burner with more pressing work and family priorities. Thank you very much for providing the files. I noticed the ROM firmware is EU, when i am outside of EU....but shouldn't be too big of a problem.... I am getting around to doing all of this now, I have downloaded the files. When are you typically online to chat about this?
