There's a lot of problems with Huawei's website.

Consider using DC Unlocker or sending an email to Huawei's support asking for a bootloader unlock code. In your email, include your name, email and phone number, and the phone's model, its IMEI, its serial number and product's ID (dial *#*#1357946#*#*), as there is a good chance that they will request this (and possibly more) information during your exchange of emails.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] cole9971:
I already send them an email and they told me to do what's on this guide and i've never used DC Unlocker, how do I obtain the bootloader code or even unlock the bootloader of my phone with DC Unlocker ?

You can flash the stock recovery, unroot might also be necessary: https://mega.nz/#!ghNGXLRA!z0htsIpdkF98Aa6rBwcoM_viH4xTSSf1UIXOEd-Styk

Question, how much faster, snappier and cleaner does the phone get by unlocking and rooting the device?

E.g: Does it improve performance?

[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] josef mawas:
How do you update your phone after you rooted it? Do you just flash stock rom, restore data and reroot your phone every time?

And will I be able to take use my warranty for hardware issues after I rooted the p9 lite, or is it completly void?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] kevshots:
:eek: The unlock code is free in their website
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Schlengge:
Unlocking and rooting does not impact the performance. The process itself does nothing but giving you full control. It depends on what you do with it afterwards ;)
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] DRDnoza:
HI, Firstly thank you for the time you have put into this guide, I've finally got my bootloader code (used the product details on box not on phone) Unlocked it fine followed step two for twrp said all good, when going into fastboot mode I do not get TWRP but a erecovery emui update screen with 3 options recover and update emui, reboot or shutdown. Any Any ideas as to why TWRP isn't showing? Never had this issue rooting any other phone.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help

* Fixed the issue, fastbooting with it still plugged into the compter activates Hauwei's own recovery from hisuite, fastbooting whilst it is uplugged boots into TWRP. now all rooted, thank you.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] charlie_82:
N00b question... does the unlocked bootloader mean we could likely see custom roms for the P9 Lite? Maybe Cyanogenmod or other AOSP-type roms?

Thanks in advance
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] lost3:
Yes ,with twrp recovery
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] charlie_82:
*does a happy dance*

I'm so excited about this. Been debating what handset to get, now I think I shall go with the P9 Lite
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] lost3:
don't be so excited because the device is so new that there are no roms yet except one rom that is in beta mode from BadWolf in htcmania . but i hope in future there will be to many
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] charlie_82:
Haha thanks. It's a popular device - I'm sure if there can be custom roms, there will be. There are so many awesome devs here on XDA :D

Guys i recently updated my p9 lite and i lost all, my recovery, my root even my bootloader gets locked again , I understand the recovery and root deleted but the bootloader locked again?, wich means format all the phone again and reinstall all apps, how can i avoid this?

BTW, when i update i had to do it with stock recovery (i think this is why the bootloader gets locked again) and dload method, trying to update with twrp did nothing, the phone restarts in to twrp and dont do nothing at all
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Schlengge:
Can not confirm. I updated and my bootloader stayed unlocked. Had to reflash TWRP and SuperSU though. But no formatting happened.

There's two IMEIs in my "about phone" section. Is there any difference to which one I should enter?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] BilakosGr:
Many thnx on this tutorial.

I installed twrp properly and changed the language to english.

when i try to flash supersu it seems to flash ok but when i reboot the root checker says the device is not rooted peoperly.

I have VNS-L21

BUILT VNS-L21C900B120

EMUI 4.1

ANDROID 6

i know i am very near to do this but need help pls. :D
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] GoaLitiuM:
If you can't access the unlock page in first post, log in to your Huawei ID account, navigate to emui.huawei.com/cn/plugin.php?id=hwdownload , press the green lock button on right (刷机解锁), press the first button (next to 刷机解锁), and you should get redirected to the unlock agreement page.

You can safely ignore what the last box says in that page about requiring to use your phone for two weeks before you can unlock it, it doesn't seem to apply to users outside China (I've had my device for a day and never logged into the Huawei account with my phone).

Now follow the step 1 in the first post.

Of the two IMEI codes, the first one worked for me

, and after entering the correct info, you should get your unlock code in that yellowish box. In case you get an error saying something about IMEI code no matter which one of the codes you used, make sure you have javascript enabled in that page, and if you use Noscript/uMatrix make sure you're not blocking the huawei.com and huaweidevice.com domains.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] GoaLitiuM:
Flashing SuperSU keeps failing after "creating ramdisk backup", and any attempts at backing up the device through TWRP backup function fails at "createTarFork() process ended with ERROR=255". Is there any ways to make the backup working as intended?

I did manage to get the device rooted by installing SuperSU with TWRP's own Root Device option (can be found in Advanced settings), so that's an alternative way to install root too if flashing SuperSU fails.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Rookie1919:
no site online

Aloah!

I tried all sites i found in different forums, but none of them worked. I´ve also downloaded a tool from here which lead me to a chinese site but it seemed to be offline. And the official site says "no European users supported".

I dont understand why. I had this device since its on the marked. Meanwhile i got another device and now i came back to the P9 lite. With my first device it worked, but now the sites are offline / not supporting. Is there another method to unlokc the bootlader ..... or root without unlock it?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Sotray:
Hello together,

Is this tutorial also valid for the chinese Huawei G9 Youth?

Comparing the hardware of G9 youth & P9 lite it looks like they are identical. At least I cannot find any difference.

I am asking because I want to install the P9 lite (VNS-L21) firmware on my G9 Youth (VNS-DL00) device. Although I changed all available language settings to english, there are still chinese notifications etc. appearing.

Thanks in advance!

Hi guys !

First of all, sorry for the translation, somewhat hopefully, will understand my problem ... I managed to unlock bootloader, root and recovery too! But I want to lock the bootloader. Unfortunately, no matter how many options I tried, always the same error comes up. FAILED (remote: root type is risk) ... What could do to please someone help would be important ...

I have got : VNS-L21C02B114
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Deivs:
Thank You very much! It's works excellent for my VNS-L21. But I have a question about setting in developer menu. After bootloader is unlocking, advanced recovery and rooting installed can I turn off "Enable OEM unlock", or it is important to stay turned on (in developer settings)?

Thanks again.

Hey,

Can you help me? My phone is single sim and accidentally installed dual sim rom. Vodafone, HU
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] k1ll3r8e:
Heyho,

that would normally give no error, because all roms (so far i know) for the L21/L31 are single and dual-sim compatible. Whats the problem u have on ur device?

If u want revert back to the C432B130 u'll need the correct oeminfo + custom.bin and the FULL-Update for C432B130.

Regards,

Sebastian
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] glaca8911:
The problem is that the best of my knowledge, there is no guarantee on my device. My original build number is L21C02B114, I want to come back to this because of the guarantee, and to wait for official updates. But I have a friend whose phone is the same as me. Just open bootloader, root and TWRP. If he was doing TWRP backup, and I will open the bootloader and install TWRP, his backup can install this on my phone? He also Vodafone HU, VNS-L21 and the bulild C02B114 ... It can work?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] k1ll3r8e:
Ok, i get what u try to archive. But this not really a solution... Because u can go on the stock rom, but u'll stay with unlocked bootloader... To lock this that it looks "original" u must flash a FULL-Update package over ur phone. Only this will lock the bootloader like the original state.

So at least u need a FULL-Update package for ur build version.

Regards,

Sebastian
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] glaca8911:
Thanks for the quick reply, really remains open to the bootloader, and then you will be an official update by Huawei Hungary, build and install. It will close the bootloader, and does not display relocked.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] k1ll3r8e:
Yup that's it ;)

But the only problem is, that there is currently no FULL-Update package available for the C02 so far i know...

on which exact build id u are at the moment? ([L21/31] C432 BXXX)

Ok, i know that prob, got it during an downgrade... If u have currently root rights, check the following things:

1. does /data/custom.bin exists and have the following content "hw/eu"?

2. did u flashed any oeminfo before this problem appears?

3. did u wiped once the cust partition via twrp (don't do that)?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] BilakosGr:
twrp file manager?

Consider I am noob, it was my fault from begining to mess up with my phone without knowing a single line of developing.

1)i lanched twrp and found /cust/hw/eu

2)cant remember....

3.yes i think i did but not sure.

I could stay to this c900 but my sec problem is that my sim doesnt work anymore....

What do you think is the problem?

Someone already gave the solution earlier in this thread. Use the Advanced section in TWRP to root your phone, not a zip. Then you will just have to update SuperSU. :good:

Thank you TS!

So after a couple of hours downloading the tool and used it to unlock my bootloader i decided to upload it to my own cloud storage for safekeeping and also just wanna share it to you guys for those who doesn't like to download Mega (coz it really annoys me now unlike its first release, now it downloads slower when u just use the browser but when you accept the download mega software it downloads slows too!) -- i uploaded the tool to my mediafire account you can find it here

If you speak Korean you can try to look for information on Korean forums. Unfortunately I don't speak it, so I can't do it.

with my opinion there is not any stable way to unlock bootloader. once if you install any custom things like custom recovery custom boot after that if you sign in with your google id so your phone will be stuck at (custom binary blocked by frp) so leave it don't do anything otherwise it will brick your phone.
