Rooting P8 lite 2017 with 7.0 Nougat - P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there,
I'm sorry if this is a repeat question but I can't seem to track down a thread where it's described in detail how to root a P8 Lite 2017 running Nougat. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.
I'm just looking to root it Not anything else.
Kind regards
Chris

You can't root the device at the moment using the proper method because Huawei doesn't offer unlock codes anymore. I've read that this may be temporary.
The very first step in rooting our phone properly is by "unlocking the bootloader" and we can't do that without the unlock code.
The thread with the tutorials for rooting our device has been deleted because the owner bricked the device and ended the support.
That thread doesn't matter to me though since the instructions were not very clear, links were removed and I followed another tutorial for rooting the device for I get nowhere when following an incomplete thread.
Instead, I followed this, this or this one, searched for the appropriate files in P8 Lite (2017) threads and watched some YouTube tutorials.
These tutorials will only work if you have the unlock code.
There may be some unrecommended methods like one-click root apps or maybe using a trusted website for buying unlock codes, but I wouldn't recommend any of those and you can try them at your own risk.
Some might work or others might be just trying to steal your IMEI and other sensitive informations.
I don't even know if they are compatible or supports the device.

P9 Lite Smart DIG L23C469B101

Would appreciate some pointers..... I have the P9 Lite Smart DIG-L23C469B101. After reading this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-t3405701
all the way through, I asked if it would work with my phone and was told that it would not. If not, can anyone suggest where I might find a way to root the phone?? Unlocking the bootloader as outlined in the above thread should work. Unless the actual buss structure is different, it looks like TWRP should work as well. Any advice or assistance much appreciated. I have used search here and have been unable to find anything definitive about this model other than someone looking for a stock Huawei ROM.
Regards

Is there any root or rebrabd option for CPNW09C100

Hi everybody,
I recently bought MediaPad M3 from Amazon.
I couldn't find anything related to my build number in this forum. My question are:
Is there any way to obtain root from TWRP (greatslon mod) thread, without bricking my device? And if not
Is there any way I can rebrand the device and after that obtain root?
I'm attaching screens from firmware finder.
Hi !
I have a CPN-AL00
I found on the net that CPN-AL00, CPN-L09 and CPN-W09
are similar devices about firmware.
On my CPN-AL00 (Chinese version) I make successfully unlock bootloader and root.
1- Unlocking bootloader devices is very simple but you must have the booloader unlock code,
I take mine directly from Huawei, you can search about this, there' s a lot of info.
2- I try with success rooting with Magisk with generic procedure described for installation.
I believe that you can try on your device these points without any issue.
I not use TWRP at all, I don't know if a compatible version exist...
After that you can rebrand your device but you must have OEMINFO / Custom.bin files
for the version you want to.
I'm trying to debrand my version to CPN-L09,
but I cannot find on the net relative OEMINFO/Custom.bin files...
I hope these info help you.

Downgrade from Pie to Oreo

What exactly are the steps and requirements for downgrading the OS?
I can't seem to find a specific guide on how to do it.
Is bootloader unlock required? Or can it be done with a tool of some sort like a OnePlus or nexus/pixel device?
Ok nevermind. It seems I've found the instructions on the website. Mods can delete this thread please ?

Google Services don't work - Huawei P9 Lite

Hello everyone, I have a problem with a Huawei P9 Lite VNS-L31 .
The Google Services don't work: when I open a Google app (i.e. Google Play) the Google Login screen appears and disappears quickly, so, I can't login to Google.
This phone runs Android 6.0 with EMUI 4.0, with serial number VNS-L31C900B170... about this SN I read that the problem is this version of the stock ROM that "blocks" the Google Services and can't update to Android Nougat.
I tried to unlock the bootloader by using DC-Unlocker (because the Huawei's official service for the bootloader code shutted down) but I had a problem with the credits payment, so I can't unlock the bootloader now. I had tried to install some firmwares that suggest Firmware Finder 9.5 with the software updater, but none of the suggested firmware had work.
So, in this thread I want to ask if there are a way to install a "normal" firmware (like the C432, that is the european firmware) without unlocking bootloader or unlock bootloader without using DC-unlocker.
I'm having the same problem, somebody can help us?
@faffolao @ITzAndry
Guys I would like you could recover the full functionality of your device ...
but I wondered how you did to have that firmware ( global firmware/C900 ).
In order to solve those problems you need to know the model L31 / L21, single / dual SIM and firmware in use before you had C900 firmware, branded/unbranded included in which region you live, because it also depends on this. Answer me these infos...
I suggest you take a look at the UNIFIED HELP THREAD for aid.
Look at post #6 ...
I can try to help you, better ask or re-read before doing.
Happy Holidays

The program that the post suggests don't work: first of all, the program don't read the bootloader code and for this opens the old website for requesting the unlock code, that is disabled. So it's completely useless. Ah, the program doesn't recognize my device, after enabling usb debug, installed hisuite and enabled manufacture mode (adb recognised it, the program not). So, are you sure that the program is a crap?

Don't know what you're talking about.
Link i posted you talks about update via dload folder AKA three button method.
If you refer to DC-UNLOCKER app and still interested in unlock bootloader read this post,
i will suggest to read the entire thread, then decide.
In any case the device is yours and you can choose what's right for you...
Good luck

Thanks everyone
How can I rom Huawei y6 into a iPhonr
Well, is very simple, you take a chizle and a hammer and shape it in a Iphone.
But be careful it must be heated first to approximately 75 degrees Celsius (Preferably in the microwave) otherwise it will chip and you risk damaging it.
Good luck!
Hi All,
I've been digging around for any scraps of information I can find about installing a custom rom on a Huawei Y6 2019 (MRD-LX1). After hours of searching, I couldn't actually find anything. I can't make a new thread so I decided to reply to this one.
I can see some threads about doing it on a 2018 model. Would they be applicable to the 2019 model as well, or has Huawei done something special on the 2019 model to prevent old methods from working?
There are some threads about the Pro or Prime or whatever models of the phones. Would I be safe to assume the same methods can apply to a base (MRD-LX1) model?
If there is any information you can point me towards, I'd be grateful!

im having the same issue as well
Same issue here after 3 days of research for MRD-LX1 : no rooting possible, no bootloader unlocking (i found one code but that fails at the last stage of unlocking (oem unlock Err:0x7), no TWRP file at twrp.me...
How disappointing : I don't know what method I could use to recover some deleted pictures that are probably in the 8Go free memory... Arghhhhhh
