I've added your info regarding re-enabling 5GHz wifi radio to the guide. Thanks for that!
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] woody1:
I asked this in another post, but nobody replied. Before I unlock my bootloader, I'd like to find out if requesting the code will void the warranty. Could somebody who has already unlocked their tablet go to this website and see what it reports about the status of their warranty: http://consumer.huawei.com/us/support/warranty-query/

I would appreciate it and it would be useful information for other people, too.

Any news about Root/Custom Recovery for Mediapad M3 Lite (BAH W09) ?
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tazzarias:
Anyone know if twrp and root are available for CPN-W09 model, MediaPad M3 Lite 8-inch wifi-only, tablet?

Edit: Sorry, forgot to add that it shipped with EMUI5.1 (Nougat)
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tazzarias:
Update: I have unlocked the bootloader, and using adb reboot-bootloader I'm now able to see the Fastboot & Rescue mode show up on the tablet's screen, it shows PHONE Unlocked, FRP Unlock

I am willing to try the twrp_us recovery image, but seems fastboot isn't cooperating.

fastboot devices does report it can see the device

But running fastboot boot twrp.img I see:

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 0.764s]

booting...

But it never boots, it just sits there. If I ctrl-c out of that, and run it again, I get:

downloading 'boot.img'...

FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))

finished. total time: 5.023s

Anyone able to successfully boot into a twrp recovery on a US CPN-W09 MediaPad M3 Lite 8-inch wifi-only EMUI5.1 Nougat tablet?

HUAWEI is one of the providers who supports their customers. So even if the BL is unlocked, warranty isn´t void!

In my case:

Model: Bach-L09B

IMEI/SN: X

Warranty Expiration Date: 2019-06-15

Warranty applicable country: Latvia, Lietuva, United Kingdom Hrvatska, România, Norge, Magyarország, France, България, Belgique, Deutschland, Suomi, Danmark, Ireland, České, Österreich, Κύπρος, Sverige, Slovenia, Slovensko, Italia, Portugal, Polska, Suisse, Ελλάδα, España, Nederland, Estonia <More

Good choise to .boot and not to flash!

Haven´t the W09 but that helped me often, for other devices: while boot-stuck: fastboot continue which will continue the autoboot.

Or just fastboot reboot after u reopened the command prompt.

Or, if u are brave:

1st extract ur stock-recovery

2ndflash the c-recovery

I´m really not a fan about flashing not fitting recovs but when I have an "emergency solution" I´ll give it a shot.

:good:
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tazzarias:
tried fastboot continue, but got:

resuming boot...

FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))

finished. total time: 5.011s

also tried fastboot reboot, and it reported this:

rebooting...

finished. total time: 5.008s

but the tablet didn't actually do anything, still shows the Fastboot&Rescue mode screen

I am very keen on wanting to make a backup of my stock recovery, but I can't find any guides that are applicable to this specific tablet make and model.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] essayn:
Seems to be a weird but quite common bug.

Try this: Unplug the USB-cable immediately after confirming (ENTER) the commands. (sometimes it helps)

To extract the S-recovery u´ll need:

HFF: Huawei Firmware Finder made by Team MT

HUE: Huawei Update Extractor made by xda-user worstenbrood

If u´ve found ur actuall firmware via the firmwarefinder (official xda offer- & tutorial-thread) just extract it via the HUE, search for the recov in the extracted update.zip and voilà.

Sometimes u´ll need proxy-settings for the HFF because it´s not 100% compatible with EMUI5 findings (not yet).

Strange guy made quite easy guide to setup proxy.

The email I received specifically referenced Huawei US and said that unlocking would invalidate the warranty. Maybe Hauwei US has a different policy than Europe and Asia. That's why I wanted somebody with a BTV-W09 to tell me what they see when they use the warranty check website.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] JMmasters:
I tried unlocking the bootloader on the website, but I keep getting the error (Please make sure the verification code and model number are correct. If your device has multiple IMEIs or MEIDs, please try another IMEI or MEID). This is a tablet and doesn't have access to a SIM, so there is no need for IMEI, or basically, when I choose the option, (Tablet Wi-Fi), there is no need to input one. I have double check my serial number, model number and product id, countless of times, and I still get the same error. Does anyone have the same issue with me?
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] essayn:
Well, there u have ur answer...what else to know more :confused:

Otherwise read, amongst other sites, this.

("Installation Method 2:This method voids your warranty")
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] woody1:
Well, I don't really have my answer. The fact that some anonymous person at Huawei sent me an email claiming that my warranty would be invalidated doesn't make it true. First of all, they could be mistaken. Second, even if there is such a policy, do they have a means to actually track whether you unlocked and do they enforce such a thing? I've read other posts here saying that the opposite is true, so which do I believe?

As far as somebody on another site saying that my warranty would be invalidated if I unlock, how do I know that they really know what they're talking about? People often assume that's the case without actually checking it out. I'm still waiting to find out what experience people have actually had.

As I said a few posts back, the email I received from Huawei had a link to a website where you can check your warranty status. When I check mine, it says my warranty is valid. I want to know if somebody who has a US M3 and who used an unlock code gets a report that their warranty status has changed. So far, nobody has done that and reported back. You said that your warranty still appears to be good on a non-US model. I'd like to see what the report looks like for a US model.

I have the same problem, and wrote to the support using email and webform on their site, but do not have any answer from them.

Seems that huawei is to avoid if we want a customisable tablet :(
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] PouncePony:
I am in the US and I contacted Huawei Mobile via FB messenger explaining that I could not get a bootloader unlock code from their website. Their response was ...

Hello and thank you for contacting Huawei, we widely appreciate your preference. We do apologize for the inconvenience you are experiencing, however, it is our duty to inform you that Huawei USA does not provide codes to unlock the bootloader, root the device or provides any tool/code to modify the device internally. We kindly inform you that this action can potentially "brick" the device or in other words, renders the tablet completely unusable and voids the warranty service and device support. We have no control over how unlocking the bootloader or rooting the tablet will affect your device.

We understand that you have been able to start the request to get the bootloader unlock code from our EMUI website, however, your device does not qualify to receive this code, since Huawei USA warranty policy limits us to do not provide this code, in order to prevent future inconveniences to our consumers.

Please do not hesitate to send us a private message if you have any suggestions or concerns / questions. We are here to serve and we will be more than happy to assist you and answer any doubt that you might have. Thank you in advance and have a wonderful day. E.A.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] woody1:
That's the same message I got. I'm not sure it's accurate. Here's a link to their warranty:

http://consumer.huawei.com/us/support/warranty-policy/

It doesn't say anything specific about unlocking the bootloader, etc. It does prohibit:

"h) Improper testing, operation, maintenance, installation, or any alteration or modification of Product;"

I don't see how unlocking the bootloader would apply, because it's a function that's built into the device. I think they would be on shaky legal ground to claim the warranty wasn't valid because you unlocked, but it's unlikely that anybody is going to sue them in court. I don't know if they have a way to actively monitor whether people have unlocked or not. I think this letter may be an idle threat because they just don't want to bother with assisting people to unlock and it's easier for them to tell you this and make you go away.

Help

I just got M3 tablet BTV-W09 and I didn't update it (because I don't want to) and I can't get the unlock code because the site apparently doesn't work. It endlessly spins the logging wheel ... So what do I do?
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] woody1:
1. I believe the website should work, as long as you haven't updated the firmware, so keep trying.

2. If the website doesn't work, you can try emailing Huawei support to see if they'll provide the code.

3. If those approaches don't work, you can buy an unlock code for a small fee from dc-unlocker.com

4. I would recommend that you upgrade the firmware. The M3 is much better with the upgraded version.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Pierre_:
Currently, I don't know. It seems that Huawei locks its product. Even worst I set the option to avoid any update, and I saw that the update are any way downloaded :(.

I didn't receive any answer from the support about how to unlock this device :(

anyone tried magsik beta 14.5? plan to buy this but would prefer magisk over superSU.

what i have read for other huawei devices is that huawei kernels since april 2017 updates should support loop mounting and therefore it should support magisk.

if anyone is brave enough and could try and report this would be fantastic.

Anyone know if model CPN-W09 has been successfully rooted yet?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] Blues-n-Blazin:
I figured those of you who haven't decided yet, you may want some accessory recommendations.

Here is my case. It is perfect for this phone. Ignore the 1 bad review, they didn't even have this phone.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IUS5GS4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Here is my screen protector. It is a 2 pack of 9H tempered glass for $8. There is about 1mm of exposed glass on each edge after installation, but my case covers those edges perfectly. The cutouts line up perfectly and has a Hydrophobic and Oleophobic screen coating. The screen is super smooth to the touch and installs easily without a single bubble.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H3SI1TS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Those are the only accessories I've bought so far, maybe period as I can't think of anything else I could need. I have the 256GB so I won't need a MicroSD. Let me know if you have anything that may be better. I hope you are enjoying your ZenFone 3 Deluxe as much as I am.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] finale477:

[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] Blues-n-Blazin:
Let me know how u like it. I love mine
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] firepong:
I ordered the silver variant of that case last week. Suprised at how well the back stays on there with as little room it has to snap on there. Got a second one coming in for my Special Edition (own the 820 and 821 model).

Anyways, it's a great case. Just wish Spigen will come out with a slimline model of their cases for the phones. Had theirs with the kickstand for my note 4 and it was about as slim as this one and worked well for the 2 years I had the phone lol
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] Blues-n-Blazin:

This view cover is +1

Built in stand. When they get the always on display back running it will be even better.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] finale477:
So far it's pretty nice. However, I will say the back is slightly slippery. It has better grip than the phone itself, but not much better.

Other than that, a pretty decent slim case :D
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] indiana99:
+1

I actually bought both of them.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] Paytocum:
Got the "all black one". And i'm quite satisfied with it pretty good looking but i have a remark to make the side buttons are a little bit too hard for my taste. Besides that great cover. Still waiting for the temperate glass.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] Blues-n-Blazin:
I suppose the buttons are open to subjective opinion. I think they are perfect as they stick out so they are easy to find. They take a little force which I like so they don't accidentally press but still easy enough to press without adjusting your grip on the phone. It only adds a tiny bit of stiffness to the buttons, but I could see how some would press effortless button presses. I am on the opposite side of that spectrum though
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] Paytocum:
Perhaps its just a matter of me geting used to it. One thing is certain it made me easier to get finger print read correctly.. With out the cover i used to get loads of misreads and with it its all fine... Quite happy with the purchase.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Accessories] Blues-n-Blazin:
Yeah it forces you to hold your finger vertically. That is the one thing I don't like as I wish they would've made the sides of the fingerprint edging just as slanted as the bottom.

If you are having issues with the fingerprint sensor, when you train your finger, be sure to train it a bunch of different ways. Change up the position with each press. Heck, I presume you could even train your main finger twice as two different fingers. We only get to train 5 fingers though.

Hi All,

Really annoying self inflicted problem, changed the swipe code, forgot it, google account ADM wont reset phone, no sequence of button pressing gets phone into recovery mode, USB debugging appears to be off. How can I save my phone??!??!?!?!? What sequence should I follow, what ROM should I install, need a step by step if at all possible, complete newbie!!1? Thanks in advance.
[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] Pro4TLZZ:
ok you are most likely on 20160810 where recovery does not work.

you are most likely on windows 10 as well. first lets find a rom where recovery works.

We can use 20160810 rom and wipe userdata partition..

Here is the download link https://mega.nz/#!ys4DTIxa!8rrL0aktVQ8W7Q4Et8fvQ8jk2tAxLZvJOJH48S9Vkyk .

Once you have finished downloading you should then extract it to a folder.

Next we need to prepare your computer for the flashing process by installing the correct drivers.

look in this thread http://xdaforums.com/elephone-p9000/how-to/how-to-guideline-install-mtk-drivers-t3344042 scroll for your version of windows. follow the instructions and everything should work.

If you dont have add hardware option in windows then hit windows button and r and enter hdwwiz.exe.

now you have installed the drivers we need to download sp flash tools which is what we need to install the rom.

So go this website http://spflashtool.com/ now click on the first download link 'SPFlash Tool 5.1628' .

this will download a zip file. again extract it to a new folder. ok now you need to go in the flash tool and run flash_tool.exe by just clicking on it. now the software will load up.

You need to load the scatter file from the rom folder. The scatter file should be outside the encrypt folder and should be called MT6755_Android_scatter.txt . Now the rom should be loaded. You have some more options here, you can either untick all boxes and leave userdata (where your security and codes are stored) ticked or you can leave everything ticked which would flash the rom again. So once you have decided what option you have you need to turn your phone off. you then need to click download in flash tools and then connect your phone to the pc and hold the vol+ button. Then wait for it to flash, once the box with the tick opens you can close the program and restart your phone.

As someone who has done this a few times - and forgotten this vital step almost every time, just a reminder that when using SPFlash Tool - after you set up the scatter file, you click on download so that it is trying to communicate with the phone before you even plug the cable into the phone, then with your phone turned off you hold Vol+ as you plug in the cable. It should send the file almost instantly.

I on the other hand have attacked and scraped my phone with a knife on several occasions and it's fine. Some very very fine scratches that you can only see when the screen is off and just barely. I don't think there are from the knife. Probably sand or something (I work in the concrete industry). Mostly the screen seems indestructible until I see hers. Still trying to decide what to get next.
