Huawei p8 lite 2017 brick

Hello

(I am really French, so my English might be unpleasant to read...)

As you can imagine, I bricked my huawei p8 lite 2017 too,

but I found a way too reinitialize re initiate it (Of course you will lose your datas if you didn't save them before).

First, you have to re-lock the bootloader approximately the same way you unlocked it:

- Turn of your phone and switch to the fastboot mode (Power button + Volume down button)

- Plug your phone to your computer and check on the command prompt screen (the same you used to unlock the bootloader) if your computer recognize your phone with the "fastboot devices" entry.

- Once checked, put another entry : "fastboot oem relock **************** " and enter.

- Normally a screen will pop on your phone and ask you whether you want to re-lock or not your phone: chose yes.

- The device will reboot and arrived at the lock screen, turn off the phone.

- Now, you have to access a menu by pressing and holding the power button and the volume up bottom at the same time.

- When the Huawei's logo appears, release the power button but keep pressing the volume up button.

- Select "Wipe data/factory reset"

- Reboot the phone

Finally, you should find your phone's datas wiped up, but now your device is re-usable (not sure about this word, but it might be understandable).

I hope this post will help some of you, as I read the first post concerning the huawei p8 lite 2017, I think this solution will work, otherwise I'm very sorry for giving false hopes....

For those who I couldn't help, you have all my support to find a way to fix your issues, I'm not really at ease with manipulating devices, so I cannot find any technical solutions.

Hello guys, i didn't read all the threads but i want to share my experience with you.

i bricked my p8 lite 2017 pra-la1 yesterday after i unlocked the bootloader and installed supersu binary data in twrp.

in this case you can easily go to fastboot mode by volume- with power button

then you have to extract system,boot,recovery from update.zip with Hawaei programs (for splitting images in the rom)

after that easily install system then boot then recovery independently with fastboot commands.......

huuuuulllllaaaa your device will reboot to system like a charm:):):):):):)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] elbarto0:
thanks for this but were i find the files to extract with the tool ???? alsow i think i have a soft brick. all boots correct but NFC is BLINKING go on and go off. and there is no settings app and no playstore :(

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] hamzio7:

Help! Huawei p8 lite 2017 bricked

Hello everybody! I got a Huawei p8lite 2017 PRA-LX1C02 and after the last update the proximity sensor didn't work so I decided to install a new firmware C432. I started unlocking the bootloader, I tried to install many firmwares I found with firmware finder with no results. After the first installation of a B 193 firmware I noticed that sometimes in device information I started to find a B156 version instead of a B154 and sometimes the B 154 I had. But still here nothing particular happened. I tried to install a twrp recovery, for trying to install a firmware from it, but with no results. I thought the files were not good so I decided to relock the bootloader waiting for new info about that. The status was relock. After the last reboot it doesn't boot up. So non when I press the power on button it starts, Huawei logo appears, another screen immediately appears with this written: YOUR PHONE HAS BEEN UNLOCKED AND CAN'T BE TRUST. I had it also before, after bootloader unlock I mean, but first I had a three point booting menu below. Now I just got the phrase and below that there's write "your phone is booting now" but nothing appears. I can't go bootloader mode, I can't go recovery mode I can't read it from pc with dab with the few commands I know. Please help me! I need my phone...

I have heard that you also need to flash the vendor.img file as well

P9 lite 2017 bricked : FRP lock

Hi everyone,

My phone is bricked. This is the situation :

bootloader : unlock

BUT

phone relocked

FRP lock

Which means, I can't flash from adb... I cant acces to TWRP and I cant install it again as I cant flash recovery.img.

I read all threads, and tries several methods. If someone know what can I do now, it would be great...

Thanks

Piwaï

do you still have the problem?

Open back cover - Disconnect battery - press and hold volume down button - connect usb cable. If don't work connect battery then try this method
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Thorp:
Hi,

My phone is partially bricked. I didn't read enough and that's why I installed Oreo (xxx322 firmware) over C02xx168, so I have an incomplete install: Android 8.0, EMUI 8.0 and old xxx168 firmware.

Another mistake I have made was to do a relock, followed by another unlock (because the phone didn't booted at all) and since then I can't boot on recovery, e-recovery and/or fastboot. If I try to boot on any of them, I got bla-bla-bla booting.... screen and the only way to boot on Android is to let my phone to do a complete discharge of its battery.

I only have adb working and an almost fully functional phone (I can't change themes and probably another few minor bugs). Aaaa, another bug I solved is that my phone always find xxx168-FULL firmware and annoying me to install this new version, but if I let it to do that, it can't start the installation because it doesn't have a booloader and/or recovery. I unchecked "search for update" and "download update over wifi", so it is OK now.

There is any chance to install any recovery if only I have adb working? (I repeat: there is no a chance to boot in fastboot and/or (e)-recovery, I already tried 3 buttons method, 2 buttons method, dload method, any combination with/without inserted USB cable, many times each.)

Thank you in advance

Since you don't know if you are dealing with an L11 or L31

dowload those firms:

PRA-LX1 PRA-L11

PRA-LX1 PRA-L31

Put the extracted files (try one at once)on dload folder and copy it to the root of a good quality SD card

And when you are on fastboot push both VOL+ and VOL- then without releasing the volume keys tape the command fastboot reboot

Thank you for your help.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] iblda:
I try all the ZIP files that are in the SOFTWARE / DLOAD folders.

I created a folder "dload" on my sd, and I pasted, one by one, the ZIP files, which I found by unzipping the downloaded file.

but nothing happens on the phone.

I hold the keys vol + & vol-, then I reboot, and there nothing happens, always the logo HUAWEI

edit:

on my PC I also unzip all ZIP, until find the file "update.APP" that I copied to the DLOAD folder of my SIM card.

nothing happens either

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
I've been debating if I should do a factory reset because since updating to 7.0 the battery life hasn't been as good as it should be. So I'm wondering what the community thinks I should do and getting everything back is a pain in the ass. Battery life hasn't been the best since 6.0 when it was using the february security patch and I can't even go back down to that.

Has anyone had better battery life after factory resetting?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] red6hu:
Yes, me. Factory reset even solved some FCs.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
I've lately had apps stop responding but that's about it. How much better was your battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] red6hu:
Much better. With a few disabled bloatware and only a few installed app I got 8+ hours SOT, and I have a flat S7 with 3000 mAh battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
HOWS THAT POSSIBLE?! what apps did you disable? mind sending me a picture
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] red6hu:
I attached the xml file of the disabled apps from BK Disabler.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
I use package disabler pro. Is it compatible?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] red6hu:
Well, I'm not sure, but I don't see any program specific data in the xml file, only the list of disabled packages.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
The developer really messed up the app so now I can't even use it. Maybe ill use the one you're using. Is it any good?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] red6hu:
I prefer BK Disabler, the color codes used by PDP for the different types of packages is not as good as the tabbed view used by BK Disabler. At least for me.

Edit: another advantage of BKD is you can disable unnecessary services too.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
I'll purchase it then. It won't cost me anything since I have play credit
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
This probably doesn't make a difference, but is it better to factory reset from recovery than in settings?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] red6hu:
I did it from recovery. Somehow I feel uncomfortable to do a factory reset from a running system. :)

But probably there isn't any difference.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bodomfan:
What software version is everyone on my battery life has gone terrible,should I factory reset to improve it ??
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] AveHakob:
I did a factory reset with wiping all cash twice and it didn't help. The battery life stayed as horrible as it was after the update.

Want to mention that i didn't disable any app when using my phone on Android 6.0.1. I had AOT turned on and my battery could handle up to 1.5 - 2 days. Now it's less than a day :/

Also, I wonder, if Samsung reduced the phone's battery life after the Note 7 problems (I've read couple of articles that they were planning to reduce it from 3600mAh to 3000mAh). Does anyone have any correct information about that ?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
I've never heard any reports of samsung doing that and I don't see why. There wasn't a battery problem with the s7 or s7 edge

7.0 stock
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bodomfan:
Which update of 7.0 as my battery has gone terrible
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
The first one. I haven't had a security update since going to 7.0 so its either march or April
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] red6hu:
Stock Nougat, April security patch, no root.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bodomfan:
Mines the same battery isn't that good
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
Well I can provide you guys with an update...sorta. I factory reset last night and it went into deep sleep with doze no problem but i was also using the app force doze so it can go into doze mode quicker.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bodomfan:
What's your battery life like after a reset
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
Can't give you a real answer for that yet since I finished setting up my phone late last night then went to bed but I said before it went into deep sleep and had about 11 minutes of awake time.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bodomfan:
I've done a reset will test and see if there's any improvement after a few charge cycles
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
Well here's an update after unplugging the charger around 11. About 4 hours of screen on time which imo stinks because I could do 6 when it was on APB7 6.0. Could it also be that I've had the phone for a year and the battery degrades over time?

Update: after showing the 4 hours of sot the phone stayed on 1 percent for about 2 hours of standby and I got over 30 more minutes of sot. I have no idea why it lasted at 1 percent for so long but I let it completely die and did a full charge
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
Also I see people say it isn't good to disable some apps because it can make the battery worse
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bodomfan:
Definitely an improvement so far
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] orlans21:
How long have you had your phone for?

I also want to know why my android system is higher than my screen
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] bodomfan:
My phone is 5 months old

Ahh that could be one of the reasons. I need to find out why that android system is high though
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FilipSK:
Hi all!

I have a 2.5 years old LG G3 black and since Saturday the touch screen doesn't work very well.

When I unlock the phone the touch screen works fine a few seconds (2-5) but then suddenly it doesn't response to my touches, no touch feedback at all. It seems like it freezes... But the rotation and volume settings by the hardware buttons work fine all the time, even if the touch doesn't react .

I did factory reset and brought it to the repair service, they told it's the display and replaced the whole front part of my phone, but after couple of hours using it, the problem appeared again... No idea why, maybe it's a software problem and a reset to kitkat or an older version would help, but I haven't done any software update for a long time, so I don't think it has been caused by an unstable update or similar...

Using Android 6.0 the official one, no ROM.

Do you guys have any idea ?

Thanks a lot for help.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] emann56:
I got bad news for you. VOLTE and Wifi calling only works on android phones that has been bought from Rogers. I have the unlocked version from Samsung.ca and it still didn't work.

Correction: The only unlocked phones that work on Rogers VOLTE and Wifi-Calling are the iPhones.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cantenna:
i see.

next thing you want to try, make sure your build.prop product name matches that of the rogers phone.

also, my carrier disables feature if it detects root such as wifi calling. if you have magisk hide and an app for wifi calling uou may want to try hiding those apps from root.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] crazynewfie:
I hear ya. I changed my build prop model name to my carrier brand which is 955W. I 'm also using magisk hide for other things as well. No luck. I will call Rogers tomorrow just to see what they have to say.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] emann56:
I already called Rogers tech and VOLTE and WIFI Calling don't work on Android phones that was not from Rogers. No matter what you do, its the IMEI number that triggers their system to enable it on their end.

Unfortunately all carriers including Bell, Telus, Fido, Virgin and Freedom Mobile do this.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cantenna:
if it trully is incompatible, it is more likely to do with the difference between th band availability between the international model and canadian model... a quick google search will allow you to compare band availvility between phones and what bands are used for the carrier.

i don't believe it though, that just makes it hardee for them to aquire clients with existing handsets.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] emann56:
No it is not that. VOLTE and WIFI Calling don't work on Android phones that was not from their original carrier (ANY CARRIER) in Canada.

I have a Canadian Unlocked Samsung s8+ (From Samsung.ca) with Rogers software on it and it still does not work.

No matter what you do, its the IMEI number that triggers their system to enable it on their end and only IMEI's from Rogers bought phones would work on Rogers VOLTE and WIFI calling.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cantenna:
surprising!

where had this been verified to be true?
