Hey, can anybody help me with a problem? My tablet tried to apply an OTA update. It booted into TWRP and did the update, but when it finished, the PIN code that I normally used was changed and I can't get it unlocked now. I have TWRP on partition 2, so I might be able to defeat the PIN code if I could not into TWRP. Does anybody know what the default PIN might be or else how to get into TWRP on partition 2?. I'm away from home for the next couple of weeks, so I need a non-PC solution.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] gggirlgeek:
YES! This is the only method that worked for Product ID and PixelPhone Dialer was the only dialer app that worked (tried 3 others.) It opens a plain window that says "Settings" and shows a number. That's it! Thank you. Now on to the root process...

[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Cyde042:
If you are stuck after installing TWRP - "your device is booting now", it is because the link in the OP is outdated, I used the one from the same author and it worked flawlessly, it would seem that "5" in its name reffers ti EMUI's version - https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634750328

For the record, what worked for me is:

DC-Unlocker - 4 euros for bootloader code.

Installed TWRP with the new version above.

Installed superSU with TWRP.

After installing superSU, the tablet had to boot twice to get to home page, so don't be scared.

Root checker confirmed that device is rooted.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] sam10000:
Great post. Wish I had found it much earlier.

I screwed up and tried to use the downgrade-to-Marshmallow packages whilst already in Marshmallow, thus soft-bricking the M3.

https://xdaforums.com/mediapad-m3/help/m3-apsabnormal-bricked-t3779100

“Volume Up + Volume Down and Power Button” method no longer works. The machine no longer boots into Android.

Are the partitions and e-recovery damaged and there is no way to flash the M3 now?

Any suggestions welcome!

Thanks.

Did you attempt the reset with the device plugged in. I recall that the behavior was different plugged in versus unplugged. I'd confirm this, but I don't currently have the device with me.

I have to ... rooted and found a twrp for de BAHL09 mediapad m3 (bach)

I found a twrp here:

//drive.google.com/file/d/1b7gS56tI-jvSlxnOI7ibtPtI0jdSTH6p/view

after reading this guide:

{Mod edit: Link to paid services website removed. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}

Anyway I have been reading and searching for days and this site where i finally found a twrp looks quit fresh to (2018/08) De mediapad m3 is not yet supported on Teamwin. It seems really impossible to find support for de BAHL09 (Android Nougat and Emui 5.1). I did find the stock a few days ago, although the update.app always fails if i try to update from that?

When I need to reset the device. I flash recovery- , boot- and /or system.img to get my device back if it gets in a loop or doesn't boot fully.

De twrp is working and the root was done by Magick manager and magick(v16.0).

But both don't work fully!

I installed su by patching boot.img with Magick manager and su is working fine, but installing modules always fails..

flashing the zip(module) files in twrp also fails!

Haven't found solutions for that, so if anyone can help that would be great.

I get error 13 mount (permission denied) in Magisk and in TWRP has trouble with vendor.img.

When i tried to flash vendor.img from fastboot also permission denied!

Hello, I've done all steps, have root, go in to change value of band_5g_enable0 to 1. Restart after changing number and it always goes back to 0. What am I doing wrong?
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] GarlicBreadFox:
By chance do you still have the tablet and does it pass SafetyNet?

Magisk v19.x (any) fails on me asking for unlock password (there is none), and this is a bug on their github repo.

So I tried 18.1 and it works fine, except SafetyNet doesn't pass no matter what I try (magiskhide, change device fingerprint etc).
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] boboPN:
Yeah, I have managed to succesfully pass SafetyNet. All you need is latest Magisk Canary version and SafetyCheck.

Issues after installing TWRP

Hi,

I already flashed the TWRP on huawei mediapad m3. but once I tried to reboot the device into TWRP recovery mode.. the all attempts were failure. because it simply getting started into the normal mode.. not into TWRP recovery mode.. so could anyone help me out..
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] qllkevuoi:
reboot and press and hold volume+ button until the device boots into twrp recovery.. if this doesn't happen, try to reboot and press (and hold) vol+ and vol- at the same time, until it boots in twrp recovery mode

if it doesn't happen, you must consider to reflash twrp (the right version of greatslon for your device, depending also on the emui version of your rom) trough fastboot
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] johje:
Hi, for those that have successfully rooted their M3s what version of the SRK tool did you use, since 2.1 hasn't been released yet. I downloaded 2.0 but my AV software flagged it as a Trojan and deleted it. Finally, a lot of the other sites say to use Chainfire's SuperSU to root the tablet, but it looks more like they expect it to work rather than actually having tried it. Has anyone been successful in using SuperSU to root, I read in a different thread that it caused a bootloop for Flavio.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Flavio:
I used SRK 1.9 if I remember correctly.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] 0D0A:
I was able to get going by using the unlock form on the Huawei website (immediate code given, purchased same day in Malaysia), then installing the twrp bootloader zip from this xda forum, then using that twrp to do a full backup to internal sdcard (just in case), and finally using twrp to install latest supersu zip from web. My tablet rebooted twice on its own, and then everything was working with full root.

Hope my experience eases some concerns.

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:24 PM ----------

Just to be clear, I did not use SRK at all...
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jmjm003:
I feel as if those of us that have the US version of the M3 are the ones having an issue with the current version of TWRP that's posted. I can't even get TWRP to boot on my US tablet. Hope there's an official release of TWRP soon.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] lolo83560:
Hi, I used 2.0 and if I remember well I used root submenu entry #2 (Huawei Mate 8,P9,P9+). At that time it did not list the M3 yet but still that choice would work. I tried the other 5 option with no harm.

I remember at some point I got a similar "virus alert" issue with MSE, very bizarre behavior in fact because I recall it occurred only the second time I ran the SRK utility, not the first time.

It installed Super SU Free v2.62.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] johje:
[MENTION=5035713]jmjm003[/MENTION] how are you trying to boot into TWRP? Are you holding down both volume buttons? Can you still boot Android normally after having installed TWRP? I have the US version too, and have not tried to install TWRP yet because my main gripe was the phone versions of the apps which is easily solved using ADB and I have not yet heard of someone using the US wifi only version successfully booting TWRP yet. I do have my unlock code and just have get to the point where I feel I need to root the M3.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] lolo83560:
FYI in case that may help, to trigger TWRP you need to hold volume UP during reboot.

My case is a EU version DL09 (LTE), rooted, with TWRP 3.0.2-0 installed.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jmjm003:
[MENTION=1174036]johje[/MENTION] I have not actually flashed TWRP. Rather than flash it I've attempted to simply boot it. [fastboot boot recovery.img] I will not flash over my stock recovery until I have a stock file to flash back if needed. Honestly that's the whole point in me wanting to boot TWRP.

I've been looking into how to pull stock images if I can get TWRP to work.

Coming from a Nexus 7 I'm use to having the files to restore with if I want to. This is my first Huawei tablet and things are slightly different.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] elsamuraiguapo:
That doesn't work for my version. Check out the final post in the "TWRP (greatslon mod)" thread (by me). Tried multiple times to boot into TWRP but to no avail.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] the7thson:
Confirmed - same issue for me in the US. I unlocked the bootloader using the unlock code from Huawei but can't boot in to twrp. The command window shows that it installed but the tablet won't boot twrp no matter what I try, including "adb reboot recovery", it just gets stuck rebooting and goes nowhere. If anyone finds a solution, please post here.

[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jmjm003:
Even with the US version of TWRP that he released I still cannot boot into it. I'm not flashing over my stock recovery without a replacement.

fastboot boot twrp.img doesn't work for me.

Bootloader is unlocked so I'm not sure about the failed part of the command.

Then again this is my first go around with Huawei as I've always stuck with a nexus tablets.

You could do just about anything to them and not worry about it.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] the7thson:
I think your command is incorrect, it should be "fastboot boot recovery" after you have flashed twrp.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jmjm003:
Thanks for the reply the7thson.

I'm not flashing TWRP over my stock recovery, I want to boot into TWRP and still maintain stock.

Done it before on my Nexus tablets but can't get it to work on my M3.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] 黑雪姬:
Excuse me, how to install this twrp? I try adb but failed. And my tablet can not launch fast boot.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] the7thson:
Do you have drivers installed? You can check to see if adb is working by running "adb devices", if you don't see a serial number in the result, then your adb is not connected.

One easy way around this is to install the default software that comes preloaded on the tablet, it's called hisense or something like that I believe. That will install drivers for you, then check again if adb connects. If it connects, then use the adb commands in the TWRP thread that I linked in my last post. Hope this helps.

Don't worry about asking questions. That's the whole point in a forum, to help each other. I'm far from the authority on Huawei tablets but I'll try or ask.

A few observations on rooting my M3 BTV-DL09

Hi all,

I bought myself this rather nice tablet as an x-mas present here in Finland during the holidays. I always start using a new tablet by rooting it, and this was no exception. I just wanted to inform you of a few observations, in the unlikely case they might be of use to anyone. The #1 unlock worked fine, but the #2 gave a bit of an issue. I couldn't get the proper drivers (Win7 64-bit) to install at all, so ADB wasn't having it.

I then decided to install the built-in Huawei hi-whatever management application suite that appeared when connecting the tablet to the usb port -> problem instantly solved :). After that it was only a matter of installing twrp by following any of the many guides for installing using adb. Finally I just googled "install supersu using twrp" and followed the first link on theandroidsouldotcom (can't post links yet, I'm a noob). Easiest root ever, and no need for step #3 (the SRK tool).

The tablet now works excatly as I want it to, scrolling is not an issue at all, and the feature set is all I can ever hope for in a sub 400 euro device. It even runs the occasionally picky DJI Go app for my Phantom 3 quadcopter just fine. Thanks to everyone in this thread for pointing me the way to root bliss!
