A really important thing, Recovery is very different from eRecovery!

So, for the cleaning cache, you must unplug the cable from the pc.

I think it would be very important to say it!

---------- Post added at 01:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 PM ----------

It isn't possible to debrand. Not yet

---------- Post added at 01:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 PM ----------

Yes, that's right!

[MENTION=4110698]osharko[/MENTION]

"Now 3 times there comes a boot loop and at the end a Screen "eRecovery (=recovery2)".

Make there please nothing" - reboot in the Recovery - that means, you should disconnect USB from device and with Vol+

and Power pressing together reboot phone until Huawei Recovery starts. In this Recovery you must perform the factory reset and optional wipe cache.

I posted this already on page 3 #26

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71691228&postcount=26

So may it would be good for Users to read also the posts before doing something wrong.

And I will say it [MENTION=7295200]ChinHon[/MENTION] to add this in OP

Hi, I've received the B110 update and now, I've big trouble !!!

-> First, phone tell me to download an update (size was about 450mo)

-> Phone reboot after download then trying to install the update but fail......

-> After restart, everyhtings ok but now phone telle me to download a full update (about 2Go)

-> Phone reboot after download then install update successfully.

-> After restart, root is lost so, I apply the procedure and it's OK BUT, I 'cant apply any lockscreen code, "security menu" closed itself without any warning.

-> Developper tool just close.

I've try a factory reset but, problem is always here.

Or maybe an original boot.img ?

[EDIT] I'm downloading from fimware finder on computer a full version of B110.....will try to reinstall this firmware

if somebody has a solution ?

Thanks
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Do that:

- flash via Adb revolution.img

- restore the last working backup

- flash via Adb boot_root.img and Recovery.img

- now "fastboot reboot" and disconnect cables

- after the 3x bootloop comes the eRecovery, from there with key combination in the recovery start, make a Factoryreset and reboot.

The start can take up to 20 minutes.

That's it.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
In the tutorial I said that OTA updates after the rooting are no longer possible. This also applies to all other types of updates. If a device from Huawei is rooted with Android 7, updates are currently not possible. Until Sunday, I create a rescue system. So you can then save TWRP Backup Restore bricked devices.

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] ripp2003:
Hi, for those with :

-> no access to security menu (fc'c)

-> no access to developper tools (fc's)

You have to :

* download the full firmware with "firmware finder" (for me it' the B110)

* extract the zip

* then extract from it the boot.img (use huawei update extractor and put unknow profile)

* put your phone on fastboot mode and

God I've save my phone !!! So for the moment I think there can be only 1 boot root file for each firmware so, for those who made the upgrade, we can't have root for the moment
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] randhackr:
Ok the debrand process was a success and dual sim was enabled. There is only one problem the second slot has the imei set to zeros, so it is not usable. One solution is to clone the imei from the first slot to the second slot but that might be illegal. I will try to convert the oeminfo from dual sim to single sim, but debrand is possible :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
It is not possible to create a root kernel for any or all firmware. I think if you repeat the rooting now, it should work.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Please try a restore from the TWRP backup, which I later bring online.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] randhackr:
No need. I already fixed the imei issue. I've used hcu to copy the imei from the sim slot 1 to the slot 2. Now only one imei appears (the original that came with the phone), dual sim works but I won't be using it since I don't need it. Now the only thing missing is to flash a full stock rom.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] ripp2003:
I have reapplied your method but sorry, not working on B110 (working well on B100)

No problem, it's normal to have some problem when making unofficial things !

For the moment, I stay on B110 cause, Huawei seems to provide a lot of update so, I'll wait for a sort of universal root on nougat(no no I'm not dreaming lol)

Thank you ChinHon for your work (I've download your backup just in case)

---------- Post added at 08:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:42 AM ----------

Have you success flashing this update ? Because me no....
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] nellinodj:
Debrand vodafone?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] randhackr:
You can do it with the C432 cust that ChinHon dumped. You can use dd to write over your own oeminfo partition (make sure to backup it first). Then use huawei firmware finder to flash B110 firmware (I had success with this method).

Warning: This will enable dual sim functionality but not like the p9 lite or the original p8 lite, your second sim slot will have the imei full of zeros (at least mine did). You can either not use the dual sim functionality or use hcu to either copy your imei from the slot 1 to the slot 2 or write another imei (most likely illegal depending were you live).
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] ripp2003:
Finally, I want to test your backup so, I've done what you recommand and the only thing is even if the boot loader is unlocked, you have to unlocked it again with fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxx.

If you don't make this, you can't flash any files with fastboot (so no boot root)

Then I had to reinstall the official recovery to make a factory reset (the wipes seems not work very well threw twrp and phone refuse to boot)

Then same problem, no developper, no security... but I'm now on B100 so backup is ok, but problem is related to other thing.

For now it's worse, even restoring my twrp backup (I'made one), nothing work : phone start but emui refuse to initiliase (fc's)

Gonna make some test

Damn, Huawei's phone are so much difficult to restore !!!!

[EDIT] Your backup is good but same problem like BerndMitRoot
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] nellinodj:
The method is: perform root, unlock bootloader, flash. I guess and install firmware.. The method is right?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] ripp2003:
Hi, unlock first, install firmware, then root but really, be carefull !

For me problem happenned with update B110 :if you're on C432 B100 and follow the procedure, there must be no problem
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] ripp2003:
Like I said, I've finally install your backup, then always same problem (you can read before lol) BUT

-> System tell me there's an update 2.4Go full B110)

Done it and................................;HOURA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It work and everythings work again : so I can tell you we have a solution for any bricked lile devices !!!! Mine was, and now, it's OK (IMEI are OK too)

But, for the moment, no root but it's not so important for me cause my phone works as expected !

Again thanks a lot for the backup
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] ripp2003:
OK, i'ts because of different version between boot.img and system.img : maybe a sort of security function from Huawei

What did you do ?

-> Just upgrade to B110 then reroot (in this case, you have to dowload a full image of your firmware, then extract from it the UPDATE.APP, then extract from it the boot.img with HUAWEI EXTRACT TOOL)

or

-> Install the Backup of cris ? (in this case, you have to check update in the system option, then download the big update and install it).

Hello to everyone, I'm in PANIC because I can't find the "PRA-LX1C55B105" firmware, the only one that is compatible whit my huawei p8 lite 2017. It is TIM branded, but it don't matter, can someone give me that firmware please? Thank you!

PS: I'm not rooted, and I have the revolution recovery, and I'm without Firmware. I tried to flash a lots of different firmware but everytime it gives me the error 7, and I think error 7 means that the firmware I tried to install is not compatible with my device. I'm right? Please help me! And sorry If my english is bad

You can't flash Firmware with TWRP. You need to flash Stock Recovery first. And after wiping Cache with this you must flash the unzipped Firmware (UpdateApp) with 3 Buttons Method.

The Update.app must be in a folder named dload

Also, I've sent Huawei a request for Bootloader Unlock code for my unit, and they've replied that I have to log on to my Huawei account for 14 days and then request for the unlock code via their website, so it looks to me I'll have to wait..

Is there a way to brute-force the bootloader unlock?

By the way, I can't find anything on the variant, but does anybody know what the difference is with the PRA-LX2 as compared to PRA-LX1?

Hey guys

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Manuele1000:
In future, can we do a factory reset with twrp or we have to flash stock recovery for that? Because I understand that:

TWRP Can do everything except for the wipe, if you wipe, then the firmware will be very buggy, like "insufficient memory for open the gallery"

Stock Recovery can do the wipe very well

So I have to flash twrp for everything, but if I need to wipe (especially when the device won't boot) I need to flash stock recovery with fastboot, and with it do the wipe. Then I can, if I want, re-flash twrp and restore the backup, everything work, except for the wipe. Can you fix it in a near future? Please!

Thank you!

I can not do that.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Manuele1000:

Actually I have your pre rooted twrp backup, and I thank you because without it I couldn't restore my device. And the stock recovery, stock erecovery and stock kernel because your twrp backuped kernel won't work. I have settings and security options bugged like other users.

[How To Firmwarefinder Update] Huawei P8 lite 2017 [PRA-LX1]-Android 7.0-EMUI 5.0/ B1

[How To Firmwarefinder Update] Huawei P8 lite 2017 [PRA-LX1]-Android 7.0-EMUI 5.0/ B110

Download with 'Firmwarefinder.apk" the full update of the B110, 1.953 GB.

After the download you find in the folder HWFF (intSd or extSd) these three files: (the names could be different)

update.zip

update_full_PRA-L31_hw_normal.zip

update_full_PRA-L31_hw_eu.zip

update_data_full_public.zip

If in intSd then moves HWFF to extSd.

Now copie update.zip into another folder and extracts this. Now you get an UPDATE.APP. You copy this to HWFF/ extSd and delete the update.zip.

Then must be like that:

UPDATE.APP

update_full_PRA-L31_hw_normal.zip

update_full_PRA-L31_hw_eu.zip

update_data_full_public.zip

Then start the Update with this code in the dialer.

*#*#2846579#*#*

If the update does not succeed, you must wait for an OTA update.

Good luck! :cool:
