Fastboot brick ? - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Hi all.
I had unlock bootloader.
I just changed my recovery to twrp. It worked !
Then I upgraded my p9 lite to nougat android version.
It works too !
But now I'm stuck. I moved root su file on my sd card and wanted to go back in TWRP... I cannot anymore.
I Power off my phone and I Power On by Pressing Power Button- VolUp Button Simultaneously => no TWRP.
Plus, it's not easy because of huawei message, that device has been unlock.... but I hold volume button before message and until it disapear... It goes to to android OS. or stay stuck on "device will boot"
If I do the same with +button, it shows me huawei recovery ...
More rarely, it tells me that software install failed (maybe it is trying to install su root package ?)
SO : I cannot use TWRP, and I cannot go to fastboot to flash recovery again.
No change in my drivers, still the same as when I flashed it first time (yesterday) and no new software install.
I'm still trying again and again ... :S
Maybe you could help me ? Thank you.

Hey there!
First of all... Wrong forum section, this is only for Development and not trouleshooting. But I see you are new so just keep it in mind for the future
To your problem:
You need to install the Nougat TWRP. It is the only one that works once you flashed a Nougat ROM.
To access the bootloader, turn OFF your device and then HOLD the VolDown button and while holding it connect the phone to your PC. Bootloader mode should show up.
Then flash Nougat TWRP with fastboot and you should be good.

problems are always easy when they are solved
Thank you, and truely sorry for wrong section error.

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.

Install of LOS, hit snag at TWRP update

Hey everyone,
I was running through the process of installing LOS 15.1 official when I hit a snag. I unlocked the bootloader, installed the Universal O bootloader, and was in the process of updating my version of TWRP. After flashing the image to recovery, I noticed that the TWRP version hadn't updated to the new one. I tried rebooting and that's when the problem started. Now, when I hit power + volume up, I get the ZTE powered by android screen, then 3 flashes of the notification light, and then it powers off. If I hit the power button, it sits on that same ZTE splash screen for what seems like indefinitely. I can't figure out how to get back into TWRP.
Any help is greatly appreciated
You can try flashing twrp via the twrp app
Hey!
Try to reboot the phone, press volume button to get the selection menu and reboot to fastboot.
connect the phone to your PC and using the a7toolkit flash the recovery again.
I think I did exactly the same thing as you and I fixed it this way

I assume you are coming from stock because you're unlocking your bootloader. I have a question about this process, did you install an older twrp first before flashing the O bootloader?

When I connect my phone to my computer, none of the toolkits I've tried can see it. It comes up as "Handset Diagnostic Interface (DFU) (Com4)". When I attempt to enter EDL mode with volume +, volume -, and power I don't get a flashing LED, just a solid one. As near as I can tell, this means my phone is hardbricked. I've got an EDL cable on order to hopefully fix this, but it's going to take almost a month to get here :crying:

Yes, the toolkit I used (Axon7RootToolV4) first unlocked the bootloader and then had a step to flash TWRP. When I was attempting to update TWRP, per the LOS instructions, it wasn't updating like it has in the past on other phones. I now know that restarting was the worst thing to do at that point. If the version of TWRP doesn't also match the bootstack and ROM, you're going to have a bad day if you restart.

Hi dude,
if you're on stock rom try this:
reboot in bootloader/fastboot mode, connect the device to your PC,
open the prompt and type fastboot reboot.... you should solve.
Instead if you're on custom rom let me know.
If you installed some software/app and stucked into bootlooping,
you should be aware of which app you installed last and booting in recovery mode (TWRP)
try to delete it manually.
Cheers
Well

Thats the problem.
I can enter in the bootloader, the phone have the TWRP, are now whats happen but i can enter in the custom recovery.
The screen turns black and grey.
youtube com/watch?v=h9oMBpD0MZQ&feature=youtu.be
The phone dont have a custom rom, is the stock rom.
I erase the system and data in the TWRP, because a problem with my google acount in the phone. but it was worse for the phone.
The only thing i have to do is enter in the stock recovery, and the software installer(vol+ vol - and power).
I cant use the ADB minimal and fastboot. The phone is reconized by the PC, but the program no.
I think this is the only possibility, i download many firnwares, but in all the screen shows "Software install failed incompatible with current version"
In the 3% or 10%.

Wow, you erased system and data ? that's the reason because it will not boot dude.
Fortunately fastboot mode and twrp works and i think that will help you
bring your device back to life.
Do you remember latest firmware of your device ?
Which TWRP version are on ?
mmm

And the phone is in Android 6.0 stock, and the TWRP version is 3.1.0-2

You flashed the TWRP but don't work ?
Fastboot mode is bootloader mode so.....
what happen if you turn off the device and restart it
holding vol - and power button until it boot into system/bootloader ?
And vol + vol - and power buttons = three buttons aka DLOAD method are used to flash a firmware
but only in android 6.
Without know the latest firmware you was running on your device
it's very difficult to revive the phone, regardless of the type of device...
Another way to try to revive the phone is a rebrand but it is a bit difficult
and you need the correct files with a working TWRP...
Sorry dude i think i cannot help you anymore...
I wish you the best

[solved!] Used ODIN to install twrp but phone won't boot into recovery at all

Problem solved! i was installing the wrong version of twrp this is the correct version: https://eu.dl.twrp.me/j5xnlte/
I'm using SM-J510H
So I installed samsung drivers.
I even installed ADB and it's drivers (now i have samsung android in the device manager)
I downloaded TWRP for j53gxx:
https://eu.dl.twrp.me/j53gxx/
The .tar for odin (twrp-3.4.0-0-j53gxx.img.tar)
I did the OEM unlock and debugging thing I even got the notification that the computer was trying to access blah blah I did allow always.
Put the phone in download mode (Down + Home + Power)
Press up to enter download mode.
Connect the phone.
Untick reboot in odin.
Use the ap to select the correct file
Start success!
I try to reload into recovery tried so many different ways even the adb command to reboot into recovery. All I get is a little thing on the top left saying warranty bit recovery and then the screen is black.
It doesn't load into the default recovery it just stays black. I need to take the battery to rest...
I tried with adb but when i force it to load up into download mode (adb reboot bootloader)
adb doesn't recognize the phone anymore
I've now downloaded the android ask maybe that will solve things lol but does anyone have any advice please?
Should I consider installing a different recovery? like maybe CWM?
It has a costume rom on i guess it says "Hebrew by daniel mouyal for bt" in the about tab in the settings...
I tried using ADB to install but when it's in download mod it can't find the phone so when i enter the install command:"fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.x.x-xxx.img" it says: "waiting for device"
Well I've been installing the wrong version of twrp lol sry!
So just in case someone else hits the same problem it's not the twrp i posted before but this one:
https://eu.dl.twrp.me/j5xnlte/
When recovery is finished flashing in Odin, remove your battery to turn the device off.
Then put the battery back in and press vol+ and power button and home button at the same time.
Your device should then boot into twrp.
If you reboot before doing this the android operating system will ovewrite twrp with stock recovery and you will have to start the process again
Also you used the wrong twrp. J53gxx is 2015 model j500h and j5xnlte is j510fn not j510h. You must be careful or else you may seriously damage your device.
Use this twrp here for your device j510h

Thank you for the response!
I managed to figure out the issue it was the wrong twrp version.. I can't update the title though
That's no problem.
What I would suggest though is to post how you fixed your issue in case anyone has problems in the future they can be referred to your thread here

When flashing TWRP it goes back to bootloader downloading and I can't do anything until i flash original firmware again.

Hey! I guess you can see from the title that I am a toootal noob in terms of custom recoveryes, roms and rooting, but I was trying to flash pixel experience on the phone, because my warranty recently expired and wanted to try it out. So I searched and I found to flash a rom on any phone I need a custom recovery and found that TWRP is the most popular and supported the phone so I installed odin and the samsung usb drivers, turned on bootloader and usb debugging in the developer settings, booted into the bootloader, connected the phone to my pc and used odin(tried by running it with and without adminstrator) to flash the tar file, with auto reboot turned off, it says it's installed succesfully, but when I hold the power and volume down button to exit bootloader and hold the power and volume up button to boot into recovery mode , instead of showing the phone model and then powered by <whatever it is> it shows me the phone model and under it it says that i have an unofficial OS that may harm my phone or something like that and sends me back to bootloader this time with "<!>" in the upper left corner and something about vbmeta. If I understand it right vbmeta is verified boot which as the name suggest makes the phone boot into the official os and you turn it off when you turn on bootloader. The only way to get out of that is to flash the official firmware again. I would really appreciate it if someone helps me with this. If not I guess I will try to flash Orange Fox recovery.
Try flashing this first, then TWRP
