Connect usb

Boot in fastboot mode

Then type in adb window: fastboot devices

This shows device's serial number

Mabe this the number you need for the generator.

Or does it not incluce the X1? Try to select the X2, maybe it is the same.

But you can unbrick your device via storing update.app to dload folder in external SD. Then start the device with all 3 Buttons press and only release power button when it starts.

Donwload the update.app for the last version you were using before.

Need help

Hello,

I can't get the recovery screen normally expected after: fastboot flash recovery TWRP-ENG-5.1.1.img

It is an image that I found because the link given on Mega is no longer accessible ...

After the order everything seems to be fine:

target reported max download size of 266338304 bytes

sending 'recovery' (26952 KB) ...

OKAY [0.859s]

writing 'recovery' ...

OKAY [0.412s]

finished. total time: 1.277s

But when I restart in "recovery mode" I always have the original screen.

I also tried other TWRP images ... same results.

Note that the unlock went well (DC - Unlocker 2): PHONE Unlocked.

If it is possible to have a little help to move forward ...

Thanks in advance.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
Have you removed the USB cable?

Maybe the TWRP you have flashed is corrupted or incompatible.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] lartistez:
Thanks for your return.

Yes, without USB cable.

I tried Volume up + Power and Volume down + Power to be sure.

And, i found this :

Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.

is it relevant?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
I had no such problems on the x2 and have flashed more than 100.

I guess you have the wrong TWRP Version. If you are still on Android 5, you must find the fitting android 5.0 TWRP version. Others won't start.

You don't need to flash TWRP until you are on 6.0. Simply flash on 5.0 the special update.app which was prepared for downgrading from 6.0 to 5.0.

Then dload B202. Then you can flash AJ's TWRP-ENG-6.0-BLACK-BLUE.img

Does option 2 work anymore? is there no other way beside those 3?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] Macundale:
I could install custom ROMs in my ancient GEM-702L from stock without using a code to unlock the bootloader.

This worked for me:

1.- Activate developer mode on phone settings and then USB debug

2.- Install KingRoot.apk (from official site) and root the device.

3.- Install TWRP app from Play Store. Using this app flash the "TWRP 3.2.1-0 for Mediapad X2" image as linked in this forum

4.- Reboot to recovery (opens TWRP with no problem)

5.- Wipe everything and install TWRP recovery again.

6.- Flash a new ROM

I installed flawlessly and tried this ROMS from this forum: "UNOFFICIAL LineageOS 14.1, Simply International B207, KangVIP Slim B230.

The phone boots perfectly and works as expected

[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
You need to extract the stock B106 files using Huawei Update Extractor (they are in the update.APP file.) Then you need to fastboot flash the boot.img, cust.img, userdata.img, recovery.img, cache.img and system.img files. Then after it boots do a factory reset. Then after its done I recommend putting the B106 update.APP file in a dload folder on your infernal storage and doing a manual update so it puts you in complete bone stock. You're probably already unlocked if it says Phone Unlocked.

How can I Know

If the bootloader is unlocked or locked?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] the-bunker:
You could try googling & downloading "Official-Unlock-Bootloader-by-Alkalinorap-v4" - it has a check status function which will tell you if you bootloader is unlocked.

It's also supposed to be able to unlock your bootloader - with the unlock-bootloader function (& the unlock code).

There are bat files that call an exe with parameters - so you probably need to run a CMD window as administrator, change to the directory where these files are installed & run the bat file.

Before using this util you need to install the Huawei USB drivers: http://androidxda.com/download-huawei-usb-drivers (& I expect you need to have USB debugging switched on)

AND you need to be in fastboot mode : Power Off - Connect to Pc and Press and hold Power and Volume Down to boot in Fastboot Mode

Note: I haven't tried any of the above yet - so good luck !
[Huawei MediaPad X2] dand751801:
Hello,

since many weeks I tried to root my GEM-702L. I used the way with the DC Unlocker. I got my code and unlocked my phone.

After that I installed TWRP, but something went wrong.

So, when I entering the bootloader menu, my tells my only:

> FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE

> Phone unlocked

Also fastboot tells my:

> (bootloader) unlocked

> OKAY [ 0.000s]

I retried the installation of TWRP but without any changes.

That's the reason why I can't access to TWRP?

Can anybody explain that went wrong and that I have to do to fix it?

Many thanks in advance and best wishes

can imput unlocking code

hi all . I get my unlock code for my the phone . I press the power and volume down button and enter in boot loader mode and see " PHONE LOCKED" , there is no place for me to enter my code. i am stuck on the bootloader part where it say phone locked.

i tried to do

Once you're in bootloader mode (the phone screen shows PHONE LOCKED or UNLOCKED)

1) type "fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" where xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is the bootloader unlock code you obtain from DC-Unlock

2) you should get an "Ok" response if the unlock is successful

3) type "fastboot oem get-bootinfo" to confirm the status is "unlocked"

so while the phone is still on this screen i open up unlock.app

it come up that the phone is locked. i type fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx but it failed.

i have tried going about how to fastboot oem unlock but nothing is happening.

do i need to change files on the phone. i have buildier number gem-703lv100r001c233b106

thank

[Huawei MediaPad X2] kpcheang2:
Do you have ADB setup properly with the Huawei phone drivers on your PC beforehand ?

Once your phone is in bootloader mode, you need to connect it via the USB to your PC.

From the ADB shell (command prompt) then you enter those "fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxx" command to unlock the bootloader. This command is entered via the PC command line using ADB, not on the phone itself.

Answer from Huawei about unlock code

This is the answer I got after one day from Huawei after asking about an unlock code

Hello Dear user:
Huawei Customer is pleasure to be at your service.

If you want to unlock your phone, you should meet these conditions as follow:
1、Please register your own Huawei ID on your phone other than any other third party.
2、Log in your Huawei ID for continuously 14 days on your phone which you need to unlock.
3、Each Huawei ID should not apply for the unlock code more than twice within six months.

You can log in emui.huawei.com/en/ to ask for unlock code When you enter the web page, please click 'Download' button, choose the 'Unlock Bootloader' to log in your Huawei ID, other than any other third party ID, then follow operations as the web page advices.
If you can not log in, please send the screenshoots of the erro message shows on the screen to us and we will help you to check your problems.

We also need you to know that once your phone is rooted, it can be out of the best working state and part of functions may not be able to work normally. In additon, the system is vulnerable to be invaded by viruses once your phone is permitted to unlock. What's more, for the lacking of fully tested, the third party software will not be compatible with your phone. Unlocking will bring unexpected negative impacts and if the device is not normal, and can not be restored, Huawei after-sales service office will not provide warranty service for your rooted phone, and you may bear the cost. So we strongly advice you to think it twice.

If you have any other problem, please send your feedback to us. We will always be at your service to help you to solve your problems. Thank you for your supporting to Huawei and you can add Huawei official Wechat ID: Huawei 400 to learn more.
Hard service 100+, out of service is just the basis, the excess satisfaction is our eternal pursuit!

So,if i'm right my phone should be Unlocked then..
[Huawei MediaPad X2] kpcheang2:
Did you do the "fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" before this ?

I noticed for some of us, even when we did not issue the unlock command, the "fastboot oem get-bootinfo" will tell us that the X2 is unlocked which is not really the case.

At least that was my experience. I also thought my X2 was unlocked but whenever I tried to flash any img always had "error from remote".

Then I realised I have not "fastboot oem unlock" before even though it said the phone "unlocked".

After I did the "fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxx" then my X2 bootloader was truly unlocked.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] karl1234:
hi i did what you said and when I put phone in fastboot mode. the same green screen came up. but the phone said that it was unlocked. does that mean that i have unlocked bootloader.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] kpcheang2:
If you did the "fastboot OEM unlock xxxxx" command earlier then yes it's unlocked.

But if you have never done the command then it's not truly unlocked - just a misleading status. Go ahead and do the command

Thanks a lot for the comprehensive post, i think it is the most helpful from what i have seen!

I still haven't had the chance to root my GEM 702 L but i am considering it. Does anybody know if i just root it (without flashing a custom rom), if my existing applications and app data will be there or will they be deleted?

Thank you in advance!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] dand751801:
I recommend you to follow the instructions and to do a full upgrade to a rooted 703L ROM. So all of your installed apps are deleted. I think, it shouldn't be impossible to re-install your apps again :) Back up your personal data before.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] balario:
Thank you very much for the prompt reply!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] kpcheang2:
Rooting alone will not remove your existing app or data.

But pre-requisite for rooting is that your phone's bootloader need to be unlocked. Usually when you unlock the bootloader, it will reset/erase your phone.

But my experience on my 702L - when I unlocked bootloader it did not reset/erase so my contents remain intact. I also saw a similar response from another user who unlocked the bootloader.

Still it's best you have a full backup just in case.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] TristeFigura:
Someone with 702L?

Has anyone with 702L succeeded in getting the unlock code? When I follow to the link in OP (english homepage) neither the 703 nor the 702 are on the list. When I go to the chinese homepage, the list only shows 703L.

So... What am I doing wrong?

I have mailed Huawei and they have replayed with some b*llsh*t saying that my model cannot be unlocked safely...
[Huawei MediaPad X2] dand751801:
I unlocked my 702L with the DC Unlocker.

You need to buy some credits to unlock your phone.

For Mediapad X2 you ned 4 credits each 1euro. I have used it too.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
Use the DC Unlocker software. It works with any Huawei phone. I already unlocked two X2's and an M2 with it. Make sure when you are about to unlock it you choose "read bootloader code" and not "read sim code" or it will cost you another $4.

if the dc unlocker hasn't worked then you are in a difficult situation. sometime ago there used to be something like a promotion with dc unlocker, so you could get an unlock action for free, not sure if it is still available though.
