ADB not recognized, but Fastboot works fine - Huawei Mate 9 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi all...big help needed here. After successfully rooting my Mate 9 Pro L29, I had accidentally flashed a wrong .img which led to my device going into a bootloop. I was able to re-flash my stock rom and return it back to normal. Bootloader is unlocked and USB debug works. Now I can't root my device through twrp adb sideload bcuz for some reason, it fails to be recognized by my computer. Fastboot works fine, I can reboot the bootloader and flash imgs, but when I boot into adb, my pc says the device has malfunctioned. This happened to two other computers...so it has to be the unit itself that is missing something.
I have a Mate 7, Honor 8, P9 and P10 and they all work fine on ADB and Fastboot, except my Mate 9 Pro.
Any help to get adb working please!!
***Update: Flashed wrong TWRP...got adb working again on v3.0.3

No Firmware installed and no way to see my device on ADB

Hello, I messed up on my device P9 Lite, it is unlocked, bootload unlocked, FRP Unlocked and TWRP is installed ( or i guess it was):
I wanted to install a stock firmware and formatting SD card, I went to TWRP and i wipe everything but i did something wrong because my device can go only in "Huawei eRecovery" and "Fastboot mode".
Furthermore my PC doesn't recognize the mobile so i'm unable to use ADB or other toolkit and for a beautiful ending i can't access to twrp anymore.
I don't know what to do, i jsut tried to change usb porta and usb cable.
Thank you very much

try unlocking your bootloader with fastboot, and then flash twrp through fastboot, then try booting into recovery while your phone is not connected to your pc, it should work.
I'm using SRK Tool i'm trying to unlock bootloader (i got yet the number) and i plug my device in fastboot but the tool is "waitinf for device" and doesn't see it
Did you install the drivers? Just install Hisuite, that should do it. Then flash TWRP via fastboot flash recovery xxxxxx.img
In TWRP there's an option to activate ADB. It's in Advanced. Shouldn't need it at this point though. The device should be visible in Explorer once it's in recovery.
Download and install ADB and fastboot minimal driver. Then go to the folder where they are installed and open a cmd there, boot your phone to fastboot and type "fastboot devices"
You should be able to see your device detected, then flash the recovery image with the command "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" and replace twrp with whatever the recovery image is called.
The easiest way should be transferring stock ROM (update.app) to dload folder on external sd card. You can use card reader, for example. Then just use 3 buttons combo and flashing should soon begin.

srktool uses adb, but that only works if android is booted. try fastboot oem unlock (unlock code), and then fastboot flash recovery (path to recovery image)
Guys, thank you very much for your replays and patience.
I solved the problem, my 64 GB SD Card was damaged :crying: so yesterday I buyed a new memory and I used the "dload method" and everything went right!
Furthermore I update from EMUI 4.1 to 4.1.1 :fingers-crossed:
Thanky you!

Huawei P9 lite VNS-L21 Massive Fail. Please help me out

Okay let me explain situation...
I wanted to unlock bootloader,install twrp, root it and install custom rom
I did unlock bootloader with SKRToolHuawei and it was pretty easy,also I installed twrp, then I installed SuperSu in my phone and everything was fine.
Until i dowloaded wrong version of CM 14.1, being a massive noob i though i could change my android 6.0.1 to 7.1 and i got the wrong gaps. In the tutorial it said to wipe cache,dalvid and system. Once i deleted system and got a fail error i realized what I have done and tried cm 13 (Meticulus) and again i got an error message saying that i need twrp version of meticulus.
So I dowloaded that version tried to install with adb using command:
1.Fastboot reboot bootloader
2.Fastboot flash recovery (In the tutorial it said its going to replace old version of twrp so I don't have to delete it)
And I rebooted my Huawei and it does't have a custom recovery for some reason. Now SKRToolHuawei and adb does't see my device and I'm in panic because I don't know what to do: crying::crying::crying:
Nothing works for me and I really need my phone.
Please help poor man out :crying:

No, now it does't detect anything after installing meticulus.
I guess it does't have twrp now for some reason
Can you fix it? Please don't say its gone and unfixible
You have to reboot your phone in bootloader...
Until you do that you can not move ahead...

P9 Lite VNS-L21 won't boot into TWRP

Hello
As menitoned, my phone won't boot into TWRP, it does boot into Android 7.0 EMUI 5.0, can boot into revolutionary recovery, but no, not TWRP... Bootloader is unlocked! Please help
Are you certain it's not booting into TWRP? The reason I ask is I thought I couldn't boot into the custom recovery programme either: it kept loading EMUI, using the phone's buttons. In my case, ver.4.1.1
Have you tried booting via ADB commands? I had reloaded a stock update, then unlocked the bootloader for a second time, only find the same scenario. It wasn't until I tried rebooting with ADB that it actually loaded TWRP.
In case you aren't familiar with the commands. Install ADB Tools, then open a command window from the correct folder location, where ADB tools are installed. To check the PC recognises the device, use:
adb Devices
it should show the device's serial number {I think}. Then:
adb reboot recovery
it should reboot into recovery mode. If TWRP has been installed correctly, it should load into it. Otherwise...I don't have a clue what the issue is. All the best.

Can't flash TWRP and Odin says pass but it still the stock recovery.

I was trying to root my phone, i got TWRP recovery for my device (i'm sure it is).
I opened odin and checked the OEM Unlocking in Dev Options , connected my device and everything worked fine. But when i boot into recovery it shows that i still use the stock one.
What's the problem?
In my opinon the bootloader is Locked i'm not sure. also i tried to see if it is locked or not but i couldn't because fastboot devices command didn't work for me although i'm sure i installed ADB and Fastboot And my devices drivers correctly.
Note: adb devices works for me only the fastboot.
Please guys i need your help!

Unable to install TWRP recovery on Zenfone Max Pro M1

Hi all,
I have this X00TD model, and I recently updated firmware to WW-16.2017.2002.061. The phone has Android recovery, and I want to install Lineage OS. Whenever I try to install Lineage, I get the error 21 "signature verification failed". I read somewhere that I can disable the signature check in TWRP. But TWRP fails to install, whatever I try. I tried 3 different unofficial versions of TWRP (as my phone model has no official version of TWRP) and in fastboot, when I give the command "sudo fastboot flash recovery <filename>.img", nothing happens, and the process just freezes, and I need to kill the terminal to end the process. I have Ubuntu 18.04 installed. ADB and fastboot seem ok. When I type "sudo fastboot devices", my phone entry comes up. Any help would be welcome. I don't have windows os.
Thanks.

If you can't install TWRP on pie, try reverting to Oreo with AFT and then flash TWRP in fastboot. Also make sure you have unlocked the bootloader whether by the official tool or the unofficial method. THIS WILL DELETE ALL DATA SO BACK UP.
Thanks arko. Is there Asus Flash Tool available for Linux also? Will try and revert. Thanks :svetius
Tried reverting to Oreo with AFT, doesn't work. I installed windows 10, but fastboot doesn't work.
#fastboot devices gives me no output. I have the Oreo zip file, any alternate way I can install it? As you mentioned, there seems to be an issue with the pie ROM on my phone. Any way I can downgrade to Oreo using windows/Linux?

Windows 10 ? Its bcuz Driver Signature Enforcement
Disable it and reinstall adb and fastboot drivers, it will work for sure.
Windows driver security wouldn't accept drivers without proper Signatures,so like i said, just disable it and you are good to go.
:good:

Tried steps you mentioned, doesn't work. In fastboot mode, #fastboot devices gives me no output. Looks like my pie ROM is buggy. Basically, I need to install lineage on the phone.
Hi all,
Finally got everything done in about 5 mins I booted up Ubuntu Mate (32 bit) on my other laptop, and found I'd already installed adb and fastboot on it from the repositories (not from google). I booted my phone in fastboot mode, and tried the #fastboot devices command, and voila, my phone got detected! After that, it was a matter of a few minutes, following the installation instructions (of twrp and lineage) from the lineage website. Thanks for all your inputs and help
P.S: I realised (again), after more than 2 decades, that windoze mighty sucks lol.
