[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] aredpanda:
hey guys,

just got a second hand huawei p9 lite and found out it's dead. (no OS installed)

Here's the current scenario:

- The device is VNS-L31

- Has unlocked bootloader

- Has stock recovery

- Doesn't have an OS installed

- Already tried TWRP(the "revolution something" was the one I managed to get working) and it's reporting error's trying to mount /vendor /version and /product.

- Already tried using the rollback package before flashing B160 via dload and I get 'Software install failed'.

- Already tried installing the B160 via dload without rolling back and I get 'Software install failed because incompatible'.

NVM! Managed to get -this packge- installed via dload method.

However that packages is labeled for L21 and my device is an L31. Now I'd like to update to the latest stock rom available for L31. How can I do so without risking a rebrick, is it as simple as flashing over the current version or do I need to inject TWRP and flash some other vendor/firmware before?

I'd like to hear you guy's suggestions to see if I can revive this. I'm also running Linux as my OS so I can't run most "toolkits" that are running around the forum.

[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] aredpanda:
Well, might as well not have answered. Your unbricking method didn't work so I'm not guiding myself from the first post. Are you able to read the start of my post?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Reflash rollback package using dload method for VNS-L31, if not get [MENTION=4960686]OldDroid[/MENTION] -s TWRP and flash the oeminfo.img for VNS-L31 (install>select image>oeminfo).

Then try flashing B160/B130.

Afterwards format /data.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] aredpanda:
Thanks for the tips, I've tried all that to no avail. Right now here's the current scenario.

I have OpenKirin TWRP, and have flashed C342OEMINFO Dual Sim.

All these packages return me 'Incompatibility' error:

- L31 Rollback package;

- L31 B160;

- L31 B370;

Should I keep trying other package versions? Right now my phone has no OS and I just want to get it back to EMIUI 4 to trigger the native system updates.

Thanks in advance for the help.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Just flash the B160 dual-sim OEMInfo and then reflash C432B160 with dload. Nothing more.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] alistairmccllm:
Think I Bricked it

Hi guys,

My phone (VNS-L21) is not booting, it freezes after getting to the warning screen, I can't boot into recovery and if I load files into the dload folder on my external sd card I get the version incorrect error when I try to update. I can boot into fastboot&rescue mode but some commands don't seem to work like format and wipe, it also won't let me flash anything to system partition but i can flash to recovery(though still not booting into recovery with twrp or stock recovery). Any help at this point will be greatly appreciated.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
You need to downgrade in order to get your device working again...

Flash b130 or b160/161 oeminfo and custom.bin and do a dload methot with same update.app eg. if you flash b160 oeminfo use b160 update.app.

Or you can try to flash stock recovery for current version of os you have and try to "factory reset" device.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] alistairmccllm:
OK I have managed to get twrp working again where can I get the b160 oeminfo and how do I flash it?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
If twrp is working, just format data and try to boot again...
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] alistairmccllm:
Have formatted data now stuck on boot animation may be an issue with the rom though I know other people experienced this on the lineage rom, perhaps better to go back to stock and start afresh, what is the easiest way?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
If you are on emui5 just flash eliteROM again and you will get your device back in life.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] alistairmccllm:
ok so I flashed the b160 oem info and then restored from the update.app for b160 and the phone is now booting again into android and is working fine, I then tried to update to b370 to get emui 5 back (it won't let me download ota updates) but I get software insatall failed on 5%, how do I upgrade back to EMUI 5?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
Use firmware finder and his proxy trick, you can find tutorial here on xda.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] alistairmccllm:
Will give it a go, where can I find the oem info files to flash with the updates? Thanks for all your help btw really helped me to understand how it all works a bit better.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
You dont need oeminfo for updates, oeminfo is flashed only if you need to downgrade or if you need to change region eg. C432 is for Europe.

Now you only need to update with FF or download manualy builds and update with dload method.

Always download MF-PV versions because that are full updates and are usually big, from 1.6GB to 2GB.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] kC187:
delete
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
So you need to flash c432b160 oeminfo and use c432b160 update.app to go back to MM stock rom, from there update to Nougat official with help of Firmware Finder... After you get to nougat you can then unlock bootloader, flash latest twrp from eliteROM thread and flash any rom based on nougat (eliteROM or linOS made by olddroid).

Happy flashing! ?

P.s. your biggest mistake was trying to flash nougat based roms over mm based roms... And all because you didn't read enough instructions before starting flashing.

Magisk uninstall

I had a problem with logging into snapchat, magisk hide did not work, so i uninstalled magisk (v15) through the magisk manager app... it said to manually reboot after 5 seconds. I rebooted, then i got a long boot animation, after which the phone rebooted alone, and went to eRecovery which recommended doing a factory reset. Factory reset was successful through twrp. After that i get stuck in that orange text thing that appears when you unlock the bootloader, it says "your device is booting" for a minute or so, then gets me to eRecovery which has 3 options: Download latest version and recovery, reboot and shutdown... the first one doesnt work ( because of the unlocked bootloader i guess)

Idk if i can call this a bootloop considering i cant even get to the boot animation anymore...

I was on stock EMUI 5 (Android 7), with unlocked bootloader, twrp, and magisk 15 installed...

If anyone knows how to solve this... please help

Edit: I tried flashing C432B380 rom with the dload method but it fails at 5% and says "Incompatibility with current version" . P.S. :i flashed boot.img, recovery.img, and system.img via fastboot of that same update.app

[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] whoisera:
Hello !

After a failed installation of LineageOS on my VNS-L31 (Infinite Startup Screen), I decided to go back to a rom Stock.

I followed the instructions in point 5 (UNBRICKING AND DOWNGRADING FROM EMUI 5).

I now have two problems. The first is that I can not enter my Google account (The phone does not even ask me at the first start). When I start the play store or try to enter my account the app closes directly.

The second problem is that I do not have access to any updates. But I want to come back to Nougat + EMUI 5: /

I also noted that the phone is in VNS-L31C900 version, how can I change that?

Thank you for your time.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
Put update.app in dload folder on your sd card with same build number that rollback package had, turn off your phone, disconnect cable and hold volume up + volume down and powerbutton together untill installation starts... When installation is done, your phone will reboot and everything should properly work.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] whoisera:
Thanks for your answer !

I'm sorry but I don't know where I can find the good file ^^' Have you some links ?

Is there a way to directly flash the EMUI 5 update ?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] whoisera:
After some search I flashed oeminfo. My build is actualy VNS-C432B160. I have no OTA update, google services still not working and my phone tell me "hi6250", no more "P9 lite". I don't understand..

Can someone give me clear instructions to go back to a clean VNS-L31 EMUI 5 Android Nougat :'(
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
Now just use Firmware Finder app for update and go gradually... 160 > 170 > 360 etc. And always choose MF PV builds, they are around 2Gb big...

All this info you colud find with google and here on forum,...
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] whoisera:
Sorry but for model "VNS-L31", Frimeware Finder only show me B173, no B170, and when i tried to install it fail :/ Maybe I use the wrong model number ? In settings I see VNS-C432B160, but with "VNS-C432" the Frimeware Finder show me nothing.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
You sure your device is vns-l31?
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] whoisera:
Yes, 100% :/ But since I have flash oeminfo, the "L31" is not here anymore. I have model number: hi6250 and build number "VNS-C432B160"
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
Download this toolkit: https://xdaforums.com/huawei-p9lite/development/europe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873

And package for your model to enable options in toolkit. Then download full vns-l31c432b160 or 161 build and put update.app in dload folder. After all that, flash oeminfo and custom bin with toolkit (your device needs to be rooted to do that) then after oeminfo is flashed just do a thre button method to start instal of that full system then you will have full proper mm build on your device... After that use Firmware Finder to update.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] whoisera:
I will try that ! I comme back if something go wrong. Thanks you.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] whoisera:
Re !

First, thanks you. The first part is OK. I'm now in VNS-L31c432b160 EMUI 4.x Android 6, and it work well.

But for upgrade, same thing, the frimeware finder show vns-l31c432b173 (ota-mf-pv 834MB) and vns-l31c432b173 (ota-mf-pv 253MB), no B170.

When I try it fail at the "update verification" step.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
Is there a bigger number than b173? Try that if there is. But first chek of build is approved for your device... If it's not approved it will not install.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] whoisera:
Re,

After some try I've upgrade B160 to B161 to B371 and it's good ! Thank you again for your help.

I think I will not try to flash Lineage again ^^ '
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
No need to fear... Now flash latest Hassans TWRP and don't root yet then make full backup of current stock rom so you can go back whenever you want with just few click and flash anything you want... My phone didn't see official stock system for months now ?

1. Go to twrp

6. Restore your backup

7. Reboot

Follow this steps just like i wrote it!

Hi!

I am exactly in this situation:

I succeeded in getting back to L31C432B161, and now I would like to update to Nougat...

Can someone tell me the best/safest way to do that without going back to NRD90M Test-Keys?

Thanks.
[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] tw1st3d83:
B161 is for dual sim and b160 is for single sim... So if you have dual sim device go from b161 to b371 or if you have single sim go from b160 to b370.

If you, for example instal b371 after b160 you will get NRD90M-test keys.

Last time, I used the system update, and my P9 lite ends with NRD90M-test keys...

You can try as many times as you want... If you choose b161 last time, now try with b160 then go to b370 and so on.

Hello, im looking for help with:

•Your last firmware: NRD90M Test-keys

•Model number:generic-a15 (VNS-L21)

•Your region:Europe, Poland

•I cant enter the (Power + Vol+ and Vol-)mode, (Power + Vol-)mode and (Power + Vol+)mode and cant turn on device too

•Do you have access to Recovery mode/Bootloader mode?: No, i cant. I cant enter to phone by ADB too

•Your issue written in detail (what is the problem): about 1 year ago I tried to debrand my phone from T-moblie by installing pure 7.0 N stock soft -> i recived NRD90M test-keys and generic a-15 -> yesterday i tried to rollback from 7.0 Nougat to MM but i received 5% Installing error, i tried many updates.app but one of them was good: was 99% and then screen turned off and phone is "death" (probably it was EVA-L09 soft, but why the installation survived to almost 100%???)

Hi guys,

after some fiddling with my phone and multiple unbricking I ended up with VNS-L21C432B160. My phone was Single SIM and I converted it to Dual SIM. In the post num. 5 when downgrading from EMUI 5 it is said that "12. Update to EMUI 5 using the official updater inside Settings" which seems not to work at all, no updates are found. Can you please tell me in which sequence and what ROMs I should manually upgrade via "dload" method? I installed FW Finder but all updates are not working. If I should update in specific order, please tell me in which order I am to do it ...

Thanx.

EDIT: Already solved.

VNS-L31C900 OEM changing issues

I had some issues, phone was somewhat bricked. I used the 5. UNBRICKING AND DOWNGRADING FROM EMUI 5 portion and it worked correctly, thanks for that. Now, I'm have some issues with logging in to google, but I suppose that doesn't matter if the other gets solved. What I want is to change OEM from C900 which is current, to C342 which would allow me to install further updates. Any tips on how I can do that? I've tried the suggested SRKToolHuawei Method, it doesn't seem to work. Attaching picture of how it looks when it fails. What should I do to change it to C342?

[Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] M.B.V.:
Welp, I guess I'm done. For one year I've been trying to mod my Huawei to no avail.

I've rooted it but none of the available ROMs work 100% with my device. Today amidst an attack towards major carriers here (3, Wind and Vodafone now) that shut down some networks/SIMs/phones it decided to **** itself temporarily removing some rooting properties. I didn't even know something like this could happen, or that it could have these effects. There is probably a fix for this but I lack the will to do it because the base problem is the phone itself.

I am so sorry to myself for cheaping out on a device like this. I will never buy a Huawei again. I will try to get something that actually respects users and developers without them having to deal with a retarded UI, a retarded processor and Chinese government-backed backdoors. Sorry everyone, thank you and have a nice day.

Rant over. P.S., I hope Croatia wins the world cup.

Hi guys, I'm looking for a help.

I updated my huawei P9 lite VNS - L31 through firmware finder android 7.0 EMUI 5.0, however, as the compilation no. I had NRDM90 test-keys and my bluetooth didn't working.

So i tried this guide from no. 5. and now I have a problem after rollback from "5. UNBRICKING AND DOWNGRADING FROM EMUI 5"

I did everything from this topic, phone is turning on, but when I choose a language, region, and connected to wifi, accept terms blablaba and Wifi+ nothing happens it stuck on this wifi + , when I'm pressing allow or do not allow nothing happens more.

What should I do?
