[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Equinix5:
Hi everyone, I've been trying to unlock the bootloader for a few weeks now.

When I fill in all the information on the Huawei website I keep getting this message.

My Huawei ID has been active for over a month. I went to the Huawei service center ( I live in Cambodia) and they couldn't help me out. Any suggestions ?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] mele80:
I unlocked my p9 lite in the firat week i created huawei id, so it cannot be that.

Maybe you can try to create new account for huawei?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Potato997:
If anyone need the unlock code, I already have a Huawei account, you can send me your IMEI, serial number and Product ID and I'll get the unlock code for you :)
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
With all good intentions you've got, sharing IMEI,Product ID, Serial Number is extremely discouraged, with those detail one could leavee you with a dead phone, or useless device that can't access any network including Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, having those details means I own your device, and thus can have it locked and shutdown.

...so sharing this is very risky!

All in all when I got the code, I got it from my phone using chrome with a desktop site... But after many tries. And also my account was made just 5 minutes before I got the code, so I don't think it matters too much to have it connected to your phone for 2 weeks. :)

twrp not working

Hello, i have the huawei p9 lite vns-al00 and the twrp is

NOT

working, black screen with blue light.

Can you help me?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Potato997:
The AL00 version is the asian one with a Snapdragon CPU, this TWRP will not work with your device :/
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] codGmer:
Thanks for the repley, i Just want to root or flash things and i have tried probably 20 different twrp images but none seem To work. I have unlocked the bootloader. Could You help me root?

This one should works for you :)

http://pan.baidu.com/s/1midG9eS
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] codGmer:
I am affraid i have already tried that one. And the same result:( does it have To do with Erecovery?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Potato997:
No it shouldn't. Other people reported that it worked good on AL00..
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] codGmer:
I Will try again. Fastboot -> flash trough fastboot flash recovery twrp.img. with adb debug enabled right? Then adb reboot recovery and IT Will boot To recovery. Or Any other combination of Keys?

Or should i erase the current recovery/revert stock recovery back?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Potato997:
Flash the recovery in fastboot mode, then power off your phone and press volume + and power, when the phone vibrate release power button.

The command adb reboot recovery does not exist ;)
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] codGmer:
Doesnt work:(

I have uploaded a video for you:

[YOUTUBE]https://youtu.be/X16vN664T-I[/YOUTUBE]

or if it doesnt work:

https://youtu.be/X16vN664T-I

The manufacturer has flashed the european rom emui onto it, don't know if that has something to do with it? EMUI 4.1.2.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Potato997:
You tried to boot to recovery directly from fastboot and it won't work.

Try in this way, boot up completely the phone, shut it down, when you are sure that it is powered off try again to boot to recovery.

It if does not work I can't help you sorry :/
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] codGmer:
IT doesnt work. Couldnt It be something with writing permissions?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Potato997:
I don't think so, the only thing I can suggest you is to try the app Flashify that also have to option to reboot to recovery.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] codGmer:
I dont have root. I cant use flashify.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] mutahharbashir:
The recovery you are trying is for emui 4.0.

Find recovery for nougat and it should work
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] codGmer:
But i have emui 4.1.2 does the one for nougat work then?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Potato997:
Why should he? He never said he is on Nougat and the AL00 only have MM.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] mutahharbashir:
Recovery for higher version always supports lower versions, that's why i said
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Potato997:
I don't think it will work in this case..;)

Hey, just some pre-buying questions! :)

Hi

I'm planning to (perhaps) buy this device, so I was now looking at this thread :)

First question: how can I know which variant (things like VNS-L21 and VNS-L31) should be the device before buying? There's a something like known list of variants sold in specific regions?

Second: I went to unlock bootloader website (in Create Your Huawei ID), but, in "Huawei ID Terms & Conditions Country/Region" I don't see my country (Italy), nor other european countries. Could be it be an issue?

Thanks.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
The variant number should be accessible prior to buying, just ask the seller, or view the back of the phone.

To unlock the bootloader, I advise you to make a fake account (Located somewhere: eg. China).

A lot of people have issues getting the code, but after some time most get it...

Considering that you will buy an European version, to unlock the bootloader you can use the toolkit (Find it in dev subforum).

The phone is great and I definitely recommend it, no matter is it the 2GB Ram, 3GB ram or 16/32GB storage.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] fifett:
Hi guys,

I'm having a driver issue with my p9 lite. Currently I have "Android Composite ADB Interface" driver running, but "Android Bootloader Interface" driver and "Huawei HDB Interface" driver having an "This device cannot start. (Code 10)" error. Working on a Windows 10 machine. I'd like to unlock bootloader, but my device does not get recognized once in bootloader.

Also I can only go into bootloader through the adb command, but not through [Vol- Power] butons. I'd appreciate your help in fixing this issue.

Cheers

[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Firstly don't quote the OP as [MENTION=7485562]Potato997[/MENTION] stated above, and no you can't unlock the bootloader without the code.

It worked flawlessly bro, but now I want to lock the bootloader again because of the ugly message that appears while booting the phone, but I am not able! :(

It says "FAILED (remote: root type is risk)

finished. total time: 0.007s

Press any key to continue . . ."

Any help?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Firstly, don't quote the OP, secondly did you root your device, because if you did, you cant lock the bootloader unless you restore the unmodified stock firmware.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeusftW97:
Thanks for correcting me, I have removed the quote. Learned from a mistake today! haha

And yeah, I have rooted it, and I thought that I would be able to relock it and I did something wrong but nevermind.

Can I somehow else remove that annoying screen except unrooting the phone?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
No problem;

And no you can't remove that screen, because to lock the bootloader you need the official firmware, which by rooting your device you basically don't have.

Also, I don't understand why the warning is annoying you ?. In my opinion the advantages of custom ROM-s and root access are worth in change for the warning screen.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeusftW97:
HAHAHA

I dont know, it just annoys me.? And I wanted to see if there is a way to remove it but nevermind.

Thanks for the replying tho!?

[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Grumpy Cat:
OK I have a question, do you absolutely have to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP to gain root access? I came from the Samsung ecosystem and things work a little differently.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Absolutely yes ;)
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Grumpy Cat:
But isn't unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom recovery more to do with flashing custom ROMs? On my Samsung Galaxy S3 MINI the root process was very straightforward and could be done via Kingo Root (isn't that spyware anyway?) or by SuperSu since it's only the file system that needs altering.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yes, but from what i understand, root access (after lolipop) is systemless- what should in theory mean it is altering only the boot partition. So in case that you didn't have a unlocked bootloader, your device wouldn't boot.

Hello..

I don't understand, there must be something I did wrong but I think I did everything described. (i'm not good with these things..)

So I basically did all the steps successfully (at least i think cuz I had the exact same things as the screenies) till I have to reboot my phone in Recovery mode.

I'm doing as it's said, but it shows me the Huawei eRecovery screen instead of the actual chinese recovery one.. My phone is unlocked, every access are granted as the guide did and the console seems to have installed TWRP considering the same message it showed to me..

So I don't understand what is wrong and how to fix it, I tried literally everything, phone pluged, unpluged from computer.

Help

:(

Edit: I forgot to say that I saw some comments talking about folders named recovery or idk.. I don't have thoses by the way, or I didn't find them anywhere.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Power off your device and keep it disconnected from usb.

Then wait 6 seconds.

After that press and hold volume up and power untill TWRP screen doesn't show up.

Maybe you pressed the volume up after it powered on...
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ShiinaMeow:
I did that many times and when my phone is off and I do that, it first brings me to the screen where I can choose between light on my phone in normal way (by pressing power button) move to eRecovery by pressing volume up and hold power button to shut down the phone..

I don't understand :crying:
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Noo... You need to press power on and volume up when the phone is shutdown and keep it pressed...
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ShiinaMeow:
That's what I'm doing, but it doesn't work, either way I got the screen I described or a screen similar saying "the device is booting now..." but it doesn't do anything (been waiting around 20mins with this message)
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ShiinaMeow:
I'm getting crazy on this.. I don't understand what I did wrong

My screen seem to freeze after pressing vol up and power, it stops at "Your device is booting now" but nothing like the TRP is appearing

Thanks for helping ! Where should I enter it ? And should the phone be turned on the fastboot screen or on normal mode while doing it ?

(sorry i'm bad af )

I'm trying for two days to root my phone with almost any way I can find on internet and i'm still too bad to manage to do it... :crying:
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
You need to enter these commands in a cmd window. To enter them you need to have adb and fastboot installed on your computer. Google it if you don't​ know what to do...

Or use the toolkit made by [MENTION=3753223]k1ll3r8e[/MENTION]
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ShiinaMeow:
Sorry I'm bad at thoses things :confused:

I get "Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device." on Root Checker, is there a way to fix this? I tried the SuperSU solution but I also get a error message saying "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cnanot install it"

Sorry, I'm new to Android
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Hey,

Nothing to be apologize for,

But, before you try rooting your device, or doing anything to your phone in general, do some research on the web, and read the guides.

For now i will briefly explain what is root, and why you get the error message.

Root is basically getting​ privileged rights to an app,

Root gives you access to any file on your system, so you shouldn't give root access to every single app.

To root this device you need a unlocked bootloader

(in this case).

Bootloader is basically the thing that powers on your device, and if it is locked it won't boot in case you were changing something in the boot partition.

So, you need to get the bootloader unlock code, and follow this guide to get a custom recovery.

Recovery is similar to a second system that works independently of the core android system. From there you can change everything, for example format all partitions, or in this case flash superuser binaries

that give you root access.

After that you need to download a superuser app (eg. SuperSU, PHH, Superuser...).

It manages what app, when and how will get root access.

This is basically it.

Hope i helped. :)
