Hello everyone :)

I came to you because I root my p8 lite 2017, but impossible to put a code, deleted an app, etc .. so I looked for a solution to put my original phone back, and so I tried A back up by TRWP, then I tried to restore the original recovery to make a factory reset. I followed this tutorial

[How to unbrick]

The procedure of rescue is risky.

Without appropriate knowledge, I advise.

It is only successful if the instructions are executed exactly.

This TWRP backup rom is not suitable for normal use. It was created for the following purpose:

- Rescue of bricked phones.

- Force an OTA update.

Do not root this rom!

Unzip the download 2017-08-11-RESCUE.ROM.PRA.OTA.B164.to.170.rar (1.05 GB).

This creates the TWRP backup:

2017-08-11-RESCUE.ROM.PRA.OTA.B164.to.170

installation:

Copy my backup to the TWRP backup path to the Ext Sd.

Boot into the Bootloader.

Stock Recovery flash by adb.

In the recovery start

Perform a factory reset.

Boot into the Bootloader.

TWRP flash by adb.

To start TWRP.

There data wipe

And restore my backup.

In the Bootloader start and

Flash by adb the Stock Recovery.

There then again a factory reset.

reboot

When the boot process is finished,

Go to Settings> Update program> New version> Update.

Will not be offered, in the Stock Recovery again perform a factory reset.

The upgrade to the B170 succeeds only with sim-card.

You have a firmware update and a new firmware up-to-date.

Congratulation!

Problem, now I am stuck on erecovery, or fastboot, but I do not know anything else, when I wanted to restore the original recovery, here is what it puts me:

Download free download size 471859200 bytes

Sending 'recovery' (35550 KB) ...

OKAY [0.961s]

Writing 'recovery' ...

FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

finished. Total time: 0.968s

I do not know what to do .. When I try with update.app on the sd card, it puts me an error after 5%.

I have the impression that the bootloader is relock, how to recover the product id to get the unlock code?

Thank you very much to all those who will help me!

PS; Sorry for my bad english i use google translate

Hi.

Sorry to hear about your problem. I still don't have much experience with Huawei phones and I have been following [MENTION=7295200]ChinHon[/MENTION] threads to learn also.

Since the unbrick method you described above is from one of ChinHon threads, I have made a mention to him already in this post hoping that he comes and reads this thread of yours.

I am very sure that when he sees it will give you the best advice to unbrick your beloved phone.

Sorry I couldn't help more than this but I am still unsure about Huawei procedures and I am also learning.

Hang tight a little while longer buddy and good luck!

I'm not sure why you're using CF Auto Root as this doesn't work for your model that's why it's been nothing but problems... Have you not followed the root thread for instructions?

You're trying to flash an unsigned recovery on a locked bootloader. That's your error.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] indusporus:
Hey guys

I really want to take my xzp into swimming pool and capture some under water photos. But I saw some videos on YouTube where people have water damaged the phones after minimal use in pool.

Is it safe to take under water pics? I'm afraid because of the open charging port and the speakers.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] admad:
Well it's a difficult question, it's a little bit risky IMO. If you have to do it, better have someone recording you, if the phone gets water damaged you will have a proof for Sony to use for warranty.

I know that Sony has stated that the phone should not be submerged, but IMO this is not an valid argument. The phone should be IP68 waterproof, and if you will not submerge more than 1,5m the warranty should cover the damage, but the video proof will be essential.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] MiniDemonic:
No, the warranty does not cover the phone being submerged in water. Having someone record you submerging it will not help your case, it will actually do the opposite.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] dazza9075:
The key element for missing there is Use.

Dunking it is fine, using it under water is a big no no
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] MiniDemonic:
OP asked about taking pictures underwater. The quote I posted from Sony specifically said that you shouldn't take pictures underwater.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] indusporus:
thanks for the info. You saved me from damaging my phone :)
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] dazza9075:
Ah yes, I missed that part and just saw the responses above, pushing any buttons under water may case you problems arguably if it was on when it went in and the screen could still be used you could take a shot but I'm quite sure Sony would have a field day with it, especially if they find the last photos you took where under water.

Think of the water resistance as a safety net rather than a feature to use.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] admad:
The warranty should cover what is advertised. What is Sony saying is their game. When they claim the device is IP68, it means it can withstand submerge in water up to 1,5m for 30minutes. You can't really advertise the phone as waterproof and then say you can't use it in water, it's just a big NO for every judge in a normal country. You either can or can not use the phone in water, and while advertisement is one thing, IP rating is an other thing. It MEANS something, and it means the device should be waterproof. I read today an article about Sony being massively sued in US for false advertisement and they gave money to people for it. Sony just wants to save money from too many people using the phone underwater, and it looks like its working.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Zewarxx:
Man I took it to the pool last weekend and I took so many videos plus photos and super slow motion videos the phone is great under and above water

The phone will heat up if you'll take so many videos even if it's in the water ?, I didn't dive with it so I was using it in 1m depth approx. By the way after you get it out of the water as you know if you have had another Sony waterproof phones the speakers will be very low and not clear for about 4 hours after you dip it in the water, also an advice don't use the charge or the headphones jack right away wait some time and be sure there's no water there before u use them. Overall I had great videos and great experience I love this phone ? and it's camera ?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] MiniDemonic:
Show me that false advertising lawsuit, the only one I could find was regarding PS Vita ads which is not what this is about.

The warranty does cover what is advertised... Sony has never advertised the phone as being able to handle underwater photos.

Yes, IP rating is a thing but an IP rating does NOT mean that warranty covers underwater usage... If you put your phone in tap water up to 1.5m depth for a maximum of 30minutes WITHOUT using the phone then sure you could argue that the warranty should cover it. That means, gently putting the phone in tap water with the screen on standby and not moving the phone or the water around the phone and then gently taking it out again.

IEC themselves only classify IPx8 as being protected from accidental submersion, a device with an IP68 rating is not rated for underwater usage. Maybe you should actually do some research before you argue on the internet...

---------- Post added at 04:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 AM ----------

Yea, the phone can handle underwater usage but IF it gets waterdamaged when you are taking underwater photos your warranty won't cover it.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] cporeaux:
Hi,

I've already read also what happened for other Sony's phone users (like 'aqua' phones that were not aqua-made-for !).

If you use it under water, i advise you not to use hardware buttons, that's for me the main point.

But if you only use screen (unlock, settings, taking photo), there's no problem !

[MENTION=4621976]Zewarxx[/MENTION] : i don't know if it's the same for you, but under water, screen is sometimes hard to use : touch-screen thinks some parts are pressed and they're not.

If everyone want to see the issue (for under water usage of phones, not for XZP), just watch water test with IP68 phones, and you'll see that phones thinks that many pressions are made : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0hEMWiqBzs @ 1m14.

Under water, it's not always the case : if you unlock the phone under water, you can take photo/video easily, from my experience (WITOUT HARDWARE BUTTONS).

And yes, no wires after getting out of the water...

I hope it helps.

P.S. You can also buy specific water resistant covers, it's perfect, and you can use your hardware buttons !!! works in the sea, swiming, jumping into water. And it's awsome, colors are jsute perfect (because of the XZP :cool:)
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] admad:
IP68 rating means that "The equipment is suitable for continuous immersion in water under conditions which shall be specified by the manufacturer. However, with certain types of equipment, it can mean that water can enter but only in such a manner that it produces no harmful effects. The test depth and/or duration is expected to be greater than the requirements for IPx7, and other environmental effects may be added, such as temperature cycling before immersion.". So if you use the device in that manner, warranty SHOULD cover it.

As for the lawsuit, here ya go:

Yes man I had some difficulty with the screen while it's wet, but I guess also because it was difficult for the phone to differentiate my fingers and their heat after the get wet so much the shape of them changes ? how ever I used the camera button to take the photos and to stop and start the videos, I even jumped with the phone in the water while the phone dived first then my head and the rest of my body ? GG Sony, and maybe I forgot to mention the water was a bit salty, however I had the Xperia Z and the flaps of that phone were very bad compared to its new brothers once I used it underwater also but because of the flaps were bad and their rubber wear off the water got in the phone but I was able to recover it myself i let it to dry in rice ? after drying it I cleaned the motherboard and the other parts with alcohol and toothbrush replaced the battery and the phone worked again, PS I sent it to guaranty they told me you have to replace the motherboard and it will cost the same price as a new one at that time, so I don't trust the guaranty after I was able to restore it myself and they didn't
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] MiniDemonic:
Those lawsuits are for the old phones when Sony advertised that you could take underwater photos with them when that really isn't what the devices are designed for. You are contradicting yourself with those.

This is the key point "The equipment is suitable for continuous immersion in water under >conditions which shall be specified by the manufacturer.<" and Sony has specified that the phone can only be submerged in tap water if you do NOT use the phone when it is submerged. So yet again you contradicted yourself.

Why do you think Sony stopped advertising their phones as being able to take underwater photos? Because of that lawsuit.. Underwater usage is not covered by warranty because it's something Sony tells you very very clearly that you are not allowed to do.

Please, keep contradicting yourself.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] admad:
You see, the problem is that even if I submerge the phone 1m below the surface of tap water and I won't use it, Sony will not accept the device under warranty if it gets water damaged, and that is something that IP rating allows me to do, and Sony won't acknowledge. So you see, looks like you are contradicting yourself :).

It's funny that Samsung and other manufactures don't have a problem with acknowledging warranty claim for water damaged IP68 phones.

WHAT THE ****, I used my phone in the rain because there was a rare pokemon on pokemon go (lol i know) and I went home while the battery ran out eventually when i got home but I let it dry first so after 40 minutes I put it on charger NOTHING HAPPENS. I'm putting it in rice right now for the night, what do I do if it won't ever turn on again? Is this under warranty???

Panic!!!!!!
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] nomailx:
Dude, it's like the Note 7. It was said it's water resistant but it gave a "check ports" warning after 5 minutes in the water. Never take any "Waterproof" gadget stuff seriously. As it says it's "Resistant". Not "Immune". How much the device will resist is always a mystery in any typical case.

But I don't think that it would be a problem if you'd just shoot a few under water videos for a few minutes. Just don't keep the phone submerged for too long and it should be ok.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] MiniDemonic:
And how do you know that they won't accept it? No one has ever done that so you are literally talking out of your ass right now.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] admad:
I was about to quote from Sony site the conditions for water damage warranty, and I found this, that's weird.

" Take your device swimming

If your Sony smartphone or tablet is waterproof to IPX8 standard*, then you can use it in a chlorinated swimming pool. However, avoid keeping the device in the pool for too long and remember to rinse it off thoroughly with fresh water once you get out.

Over time, chlorinated water can corrode the rubber seals, so prolonged use in chlorinated water is not recommended. But if you want to use your device to get underwater close-ups of a spectacular dive or your child’s first swimming lesson, go ahead.

* Sony devices that are rated IPX7 or lower should not be exposed to chlorinated water."

http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/dm/water-and-dust-resistance/

Did they change the policy with using the phone in water?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] MiniDemonic:
Yes they changed the policy with using the phone in water because you know, they got sued over it. You were the one that linked the lawsuits but seems that you either didn't read the articles or you have the memory capacity of a goldfish.

The support page you linked is an old support page from before they got sued. If you actually use the website to find the waterproof article you will find this: http://support.sonymobile.com/gb/xperiaxzpremium/dm/waterresistant/

Using google will give you old results because that's how google works, more links to a page and more visits on a page puts it higher up in the search results and I can guarantee you that an old article for the Z-Z5 series will have a lot more visits and links than a new article for the X-XZP.

Here is also a quote from the Warranty Information PDF you can download for the device.

You are under warranty as long as you use the phone within it's IP rating limitations, which in this case is up to 1.5m and 30min in TAP WATER in standby mode. They can test if the phone is still waterresistant or not by pressure checking it. If that pressure check fails then your phone was probably defect and the warranty is still applicable BUT if the pressure check doesn't fail that means your phone is still waterresistant and you 99% likely didn't close the tabs correctly and that's why your phone was water damaged. Also, don't think about artifically making the phone lose it's pressure sealing if you get it water damaged because they will most likely notice that.

Most people that had water damaged Xperias didn't close the covers correctly and was denied their warranty, that's probably where you got the idea that "Sony doesn't accept water damage in their warranty" from. Some people had defect phones and those people did get the phone fixed/replaced under warranty.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] jonmorris:
If the phone gets wet, it can take a long time for the charging port to dry out fully. In that time, it won't charge. And if you put it on charge, it won't take power and the phone may run out, switch off and (obviously) not switch back on until such time that you can charge.

It's clearly a safety feature, but it does seem to wait an age before it allows charging and I wonder how many calls Sony get from people thinking their phone broke?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Heinous:
It's funny that this isn't more obvious to people. Even so, my last Samsung phone would present a notification that the port was too wet for charging. I haven't been in this situation yet with the XZP (because I wait until it's dry) but it's surprising that there isn't (is there?) a notification to prevent people like this from panicking...
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] jaseman:
I'm sorry but for me if underwater pictures were that important I would buy a disposable camera designed for just such a purpose. I don't care if the OEM claims that the thing will survive a nuclear holocaust! To take any electronic device, that costs several hundred dollars, and deliberately submerge it underwater to take photos, when Sony itself says not to do this .... and then expect them to warranty the device when it gets water damaged... is the epitome of foolishness. Nobody is going to sue Sony over such a thing. If you do this and it ruins your phone then it's your own fault. :eek:
