Hey man,
there is no problem for the PM but it's always better to create (if not asked yet)
or post help requests on an existing thread ...
This way everyone can see that you need.
Or use @ to quote someone and call them back the attention ...
As I have already written in other posts I do not have anymore the P9 lite as I sold it.
Soon I will not even have the P10 lite anymore and I will not attend often this thread ...
Let's see now what can be done, it seems almost a desperate case ....
Unfortunately, the magic wand does not work and I can not do magic so you have to help me.
Which version of TWRP did you use?
Are you 100% sure that the android version was NOUGAT when you tried to root the device?
In which region of the world do you live? (serves for the regional version of the firmware),
but I think you could also use other versions (by rebranding) ...
Single or dual sim?
Can you access the system?
Boots in TWRP?
Does fastboot / bootloader mode work?
Dear answer these questions and "maybe" with a few days
we can bring it back to life .... I said maybe ...
Regards

Hi!
I haved flashed B329 on my Huawei P9 lite.
Then I got problems and flashed back (after spending much time) to B151.
Then offical Huawei update to B161 was there. I tried to update but got error message.
Then I tried to update manualy to B161 and several other firmwares like B329, B336 and during this I have done something wrong. Now I am trying since 4 days, to install any firmware that will work again.
I have done many things in this time. I don`t know anymore which status is present on my phone.
I can start fastboot rescue modus and I can run Meticulus Recovery and Revolution Recovery. But I can`t flash any firmware there. Always get message that something failed. DLoad Modus I can reach, but any firmware I put in dload on my external sdcard didn`t work. After 5% I get message that it failed to update. I don`t know what I can do anymore. I think I have done something stupid with my partitions and many more. Now I am totally frustrated and don`t know what to do, to become my phone running any firmware. So it would be really really nice, if someone of you could help me!
Thank you and sorry for bad English!

Hi again!
I have tried a thousand of things and finally I have become it running again
If someone else did have this problem...
I have uploaded an package that contains all that was needed, to become it booting again.
(OEM Patch, recovery and download link for stock firmware from this forum)
Sorry that I upload these files without complete information where they come from. I don`t know anymore, because I downloaded and tried too much things to become it running again. If someone knows where these files are from, it would be great if this information could be updated.
Hope that I can help other users that have this problem, with this package, to fix the problem.
This I have done:
1. I have flashed recovery using fastboot
2. In recovery I installed the zip containing OEM Patch
3. I started recovery using dload method (must not flash any other recovery to start it)
If Bootloader is locked... I have used "SRKToolHuawei-Lod-Chong-V2.0-20161002" to unlock it.

[Solved] Soft brick after trying to upgrade to newest rom version

I'm also one of the fools that got his phone stuck in the boot... it boots up till the Huawei logo and after that nothing. I've tried several solutions but still no luck.
I've3 got the Nougast recovery from Bulywolf (or something) and i've tried flashing different roms but no luck so far. I also made the mistake to change the data partition from f2 to ext4... I guess that caused all the problems but how do i solve it?
It is actually doing my head in...
I managed to install the first file from the rollback tutorial... It said it was succesfull but now I'm still stuck seeing the Huawei logo... So I guess it didn't work
Edit: Managed to get in! But it says my version is NRD90M test-keys....

Are you sure you have right phone version VNS-L23?
You wanted to update to B329 which is Android 7.0 right? If so, put the right package to downgrade to MM and then try three-buttons way.
yeah my device is the VNS-L23C605B120 and i can´t find any update.app that could work, the device stay in logo mode when I tried to downgrade it or reflash it..

Hello there
Do you have access to TWRP or Revolutionary recovery? If so, you can check on google for "Huawei P9 Lite oeminfo", downloadit, flash zip via recovery(TWRP or Revolutionary), then try to force update you phone by holding all 3 buttons when phone is booting up, make sure that you have update.app in dload folder on sdcard.
DON'T FORGET TO SAVE YOUR BOOTLOADER UNLOCK CODE!!!

I was in Nougart on test keys, so i downloaded the first file, installed it and it restarted my phone. I set everything back up and checked I was still on test keys.
Do I have to flash the larger second file as well?

Hi bro!
Could you find something for your version? I also have the same model and I have a hard brick, could you solve your mistake?
Could you give me the official firmware link for this model (VNS-L23C605B120) please?
THAANKS!!
well, here is some you can try, find a downgrade update.app, later re flash it with the according restore update.app, it will end to 97% but it`ll work enough to start the cellphone and install the custom twrp recovery and make an good install.

I am on VNS-L21C432B336 (beta) and i'm unable to install B370 via FF proxy. After downloading, it fails verification with error "failed to authenticate the package....will be deleted".
I can't post in the P9 Lite thread, so i am trying here, if someone can help me.
Do i need to downgrade to MM, B160? Cam i update to 370 via dload folder and 3 buttons method without downgrading?
I already tried rollback via this metod http://forum.xda-developers.com/huaw...vices-t3563955 and after 5% it gives the error "Software install failed! Incompatibility with current version. Please download the correct update package."
Do i have to do anything else before loading the rollback file onto the SD Card in the dload folder?

I used the exact rollback package to rollback from b371 incomplete build to b160 and worked great...
Is my phone supposed to be rooted, or have TWRP installed for the operation to be completed successfully?
I tried 2 times and it always fails at 5 % giving the error "Software install failed! Incompatibility with current version. Please download the correct update package."
The phone should be unrooted with stock recovery for this to work.
Did you try directly updating to b370 or 371 via 3 button method ? Not sure if this would work but this is what I would try to do if I we're you.

When i bought the phone, the bootloader has already been unlocked, and TWRP installed. I wanted a clean experience so i flashed the beta 336. TWRP is gone, so i belive is not rooted anymore. The message at startup still shows up that " your phone can't be trusted". So is the bootloader locked now? Can it even be relocked?

I don't know the answer. As far as i know flashing b336 should relock the bootloader and get back to stock recovery. In development topic there is a discussion about going back to stock. Maybe there you will find the way to get back to stock.
Don't try to flash b370 or b371 if you are unsure that the bootloader is locked. I will search more info on this and get back to you if i can find something.

I have read on the forum that is not possible to flash b370 directly from b336. If it bricks the phone, how will i flash another stock rom? I was planning to rollback to b160 and upgrade to b370 using the firmware finder and the stock updater. I might give it a try, flashing the B370 directly. Also, will i need 2 files, on the dload folder? The update.app and the big 1.94gb image? Thanks
Also, if huawei finally releases the B370 OTA. will i get the update automatically if i am on beta?

Helpful video
I was having difficulty figuring out how to use Firmware Finder when I upgraded to B360 on my VNS-L21. Then I found this video, and it worked perfectly.
Forgive me if this is old news, but it may help someone who is also having difficulty:
I am unable to post the YouTube URL as I am fairly new, but search for this title: "[How to] Using Firmware Finder by Team MT. Installing any firmware from Huawei update server."
I finally managed to find the courage to update. Went smoothly. I can confirm that Firmware Finder works, but be careful to download the right package. For B160 - B370 and B161 - B371. Both are 1.94 GB in size. Nougat is very nice and all features work as intended. Lets see the battery life now...

Brick, Elite Rom, stock, and brick again...

Hello,
try this before u bring phone to assistance..
Check if TWRP work for you, and if you donot have then install one for your version firmware then put in SD the files in links...
Reboot recovery and flash oeminfo.zip.
When finished turn off the phone and reboot with vol up+vol down+power buttons until flash starts...
When finished reboot to e-recovery (vol up+power button) and make a factory reset.. That' all...
Wish you the best..

Hi!, I have the same problem with the same version. I tried to flash the version VNS-L23C605B120 through dload on sdcard, but it said the same "incompatible with de current version" when it arrive to 5%. I can't enter on fastboot mode too, so i don't know what is going on. Could you give some trick to try?.
Thanks in advange.

Hey i dont know if i can help,
explain the problem as better as you can.
Yeeeeah, if you ask me Elite rom is simply bad. Yes, it is fast and etc, but if i have to pay for some features then that is a BIG NO.
Why you want to flash Elite rom though? Half of the mods barely work and it is no different from the stock EMUI.

Stuck on NRD90M test-keys

Team,
I've got a problem. My brother got the phone locked on NRD90M test-keys and can't roll back. I've tried getting into the SD card the UDPATE.APP for my model (VNS-L22) but when doing the three key method it shows an error message with something like "incompatibility with current software" and it just gives me the option to reboot the device. I have access to the device as it boots but things like camera stopped working (it's been a while since he did that and he just told me)
I've tried with the "Huawei Recovery Updater thread" here but I don't know if I am doing something wrong or what but it does not work.
Reading a bit more it seems I've to unlock bootloader and do a bunch of things, just wondering what do you think is the best approach or how can I get back to stock ROM, so we he can get OTA updates and have the device working without a problem.
He did this by using the Firmware Finder app from play store, so I guess he did an update and got the device on that state.
Device details:
EMUI Version: 5.0
Android Version: 7.0
Huawei P9 lite
Model: Huawei VNS-L22
I appreciate all the help you could provide,
Thanks!

Hello,
if you remember exactly the complete firmware your device were on
before been stucked on NRD90M test-keys, maybe using Firmware Finder ( FF )
you'll be able to force the update to a newer and working version..
( ex. mine was VNS-L31C432B381 and updated to B415 )
The other method is most complicated...
Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and use
Huawei Recovery Updater in order to reflash your stock rom.
Then you should use FF too to make an update and correctly
relock the bootloader.
Is you'll use those awesome apps don't forget to thank the developers.
Cheers

Yes I do, actually I just realized the one I could find here wasn't the same I had before so maybe I will try that one. I tried firmware finder from the app but it wasn't working properly, when downloading the FULL OTA files it started crashing and then I was not able to proceed with the "downgrade" now i've used the FF for PC and downloaded the files from FULL OTA, however there are 3 files. I am not sure what to put into the dload folder.
These are the files:
update.zip
update_data_full_hw_normal.zip
update_data_full_ice_cr.zip
As per my understanding I should place only the files from "update.zip" right? I also saw a few comments on a video that said put all content from all three files into the dload folder.
If you happen to know the answer I will appreciate it!
Hello,
I'm also stuck in this rom... But in my case I went from a custom ROM to it. But it blocked my bootloader, etc...
And I forgot my bootloader code
Now I have to unlock it and I will use DC-Unlocked but when I dial this number: *#*#2846579#*#* in this ROM it doesn't show anything!!! So I can't open Project Menu...
What can I do?
Thanks

Dude,
you cannot use DLOAD aka three buttons method
on nougat ( android 7 ) 'cause it wont work.
As i wrote you should know exactly the firmware your device were before the softbrick.
Getting 'nrd90m - test keys' firmware probably mean you already tried to use a wrong firmware.
I don't know whic firmware you downloaded, but i can assure you without that correct no methods will work.
As you can see in the attachment exists many custs ( C185, C569. C576, C635, C636, etc... )
and firmware ( Bxxx ) that indicate the region/brand were you live or where the device was sold when you bought it and if single or dual sim.
Without those info become a lot complicated bring back your device in an working state.
The last chance should be a rebrand but you need some files like OEMinfo zip but ever first you should unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and use HWOTA method, but the risk
to completely brick the device is really high.
Example of a firmware : VNS-L31C432B415
VNS ( venus is the name of the device )
L31 ( is the version of the device )
C432 ( is the cust that indicate the region where was sold )
B415 ( is the running firmware/security patch on the device )
You had VNS-L22 C??? B???

Dude,
before attempting to unlock again the bootloader
you should try to force the update with Firmware Finder.
What was the firmware you were on before flashing your custom rom ?
Which custom firmware you were on ?
How you gone back to stock ?
Which stock firmware you used to go stock ?

So the firmware I had before doing that was VNS-L22C106B150.
What should I do with that if the android app is not working? I mean... I tried doing it with firmware finder and it didn't work, used proxy thing, dns thing, downloaded the files (multiple errors, files corrupted) and it is not my internet connection, it's the app. I did downloaded the files on the Windows app

Ok, if you sure your firmware are L22C106, things aren't so good.
Cannot make an update, can make a downgrade but you need the correct rollback package
and i don't know were you can find it, but in any case you couldn't re-upgrade to android 7.
Checking in the FF PC 's app, as you can see, no nougat
versions of this firmware are present. Which version you downloaded before ?
If you are really sure about that firmware, you have only a possibility, which is
make a rebrand but it's a bit complicated and really dangerous.
Choise remain yours, you can find some guides how to do a rebrand, just search
in the p9 lite threads.
Cheers
