[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] MarkusP87:
Hello XDA'ers,

the Story in short if that's anyway possible:

I'm using a HUAWEI P9 Lite VNS-L31 (3GB RAM, Single-Sim, Austrian Stock ROM)

Long time ago after i've got in use with my Phone i flashed the European (Unbranded) VNS-L31C432B161.

Everything went fine and it was really stable, fast and what not.

But then i was just getting bored and was looking for other ROM's and found the "EliteROM V5".

Long talk short, i've flashed the modified TWRP (to Backup/Restore/Wipe Vendor, Product and Version paritions) and made a FULL TWRP Backup with every Partition (Boot,Data,Internal Storage,System,Vendor,Product and Version) and installed EliteROM v5 as described in their Guide and it was a full success.

But then i realized that there was some Bug's which got me really mad (like no Spotify Lockscreen Notifications).

So i've decided to go to TWRP and made a FULL WIPE of everything (Boot,Data,Internal Storage,System,Vendor,Product and Version) , formatted Data to ext4 (which was my original FileSystem before EliteROM) and used my Backup to restore every partiton, TWRP was showing that everything went fine.

From there everything went wrong, i've rebooted and it was still showing that the Bootloader was unlocked and booted with the default animated Android Logo (like the ones you see on Emulators).

Of course it had a Bootloop, i've wait about 30 minutes and the animated Android Logo was still present.

I've tried the Restore method so many times, i've also tried just a few partitions (like Vendor,Product,Version and System) but none of them was a success.

However, i've tried to flash the Stock ROM with the dload Method which didn't work (i did get a message something like the Installation Package isn't compatible with my current System).

I've tried to use fastboot to flash my stock rom manually (with fastboot flash boot/cust/system/recovery) which wasn't also a success but once i entered TWRP (after flashing TWRP back with fastboot) i've noticed that the console of TWRP was displaying "failed to mount /vendor (invalid argument), failed to mount /product (invalid argument).

After this long painful Hours i've decided to flash oeminfo from the original VNS-L31 for Single Sim over TWRP which was a success but after this my Bootloader got locked.

I've than Unlocked the bootloader once again but it was still the same. (invalid /vendor and /product).

Then i tried that one thing which i think got my Phoen bricked now, i've flashed the stock boot,cust,system via fastboot and tried to lock my Bootloader with fastboot oem relock XXX which ws a success.

Now after reboot i can't enter Recovery nor Fastboot, i've just the HUAWEI Logo with the powered by android symbol.

That's it.

As you can see it the Problem here was the failure of Restoring partitions.

So my Question now: Is it still possible to "Unbrick" my Phone or not?

Thanks for reading and maybe sharing my expierence with Backups and Restores and for every reply which may help.

best regards,

Hello,

thanks for the link but as stated above i can't access Recovery nor Fastboot.

No matter which Buttons i press on Power i'm getting always HUAWEI Logo with "powered by android".

No USB Connection, i can just wait for the Battery to get low so that the Phone will turn off by itself.

best regards,

Plug your phone on pc and just after the warning screen tip "fastboot reboot bootloader" (or juste before view a "charging screen" if warning screen don't appear).

You able to view bootloader screen now?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] MarkusP87:
Hello,

no luck.

I just recognized that if my Battery is completely discharged it won't boot up the Phone unless i Press Vol Down Button (it will instantly Boot with Vol down) but still no PC nor fastboot connection.

In Attachment yo can see what i get when trying to boot up with VOL Down or VOL UP or VOL UP + DOWN + POWER.

Thanks for trying.

best regards,

I've opened my Phone and removed the Battery and could boot into Bootloader , unlocked it and flashed TWRP.

Flashed Boot,Recovery,Recovery2 and System via Fastboot from VNS-L31C432B161 Stock Firmware without success.

Phone hangs still at "Your device is booting now..."

Also eRecovery (VOL UP + Down and Power) doesn't work.

And Console of TWRP shows:

Failed to mount /vendor (invalid argument)

Failed to mount /product (invalid argument)

Wiping or Change Filesystem of them don't work.

What else could i try to get my Phone working again?

I just want a Stock Firmware on it.

Thanks in advance!

best regards,

Try this flash twrp wipe everything except sd maybe even format data and make sure data is on ext4 theb put the stock rom of your phone to /sdcard/dload the file name should be UPDATE.APP

(if you do this in twrp sdcard will be called external_sd then flash your stock oeminfo and shut the phone down then use dload 3 button method if theres no hardware problems your phone should boot up if its stays on huawei logo after flashing reboot stock recocery and factory reset and wipe cache this should fix it! Wish best luck for you
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] MarkusP87:
Hello,

tried your suggestions but they didn't work.

thanks anyways for your replies!

Hey the same thing happened to me.. What you need to do now and I'm sure this will work just do everything

*Install the same TWRP from the Elite rom v5

*Reboot to recovery and go to "Mount"

*Enable everything (Cache, Data, System, Vendor, Product)

*Go back and then go to wipe > Advanced Wipe and wipe everything (Cache, Dalvik Cache, Data, System, Vendor, Product) Follow next step if wiping doesn't work now .

*Download region Patch for Elite ROMs (if you come from another region other than "C432") and put it in your sdCard https://goo.gl/JeQxdm

*Flash region patch before flashing Elite ROM and then (reboot) before flashing anything!

*Now again after you restart the phone, Reboot back to TWRP and wipe everything over again. And don't forget to change Data file system to f2fs

*Now download EliteRom v5 and Patch for VNS-l31 also download Launcher and sound fix and put them on your sdCard

EliteRom v5: https://goo.gl/AojsAf

Launcher and sound fix: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745849072291681155

Patch for VNS-L31: https://goo.gl/wXEvPD

*Now flash "EliteRom" then "Sound and launcher fix" then "Patch for VNS-L31"

*Now just reboot and tell me if you have any problems or if it didn't work because I have another way to fix it but I'm %100 sure it will work :)

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Another way to fix it and if you wanna go back to stock rom

*Download this C432oeminfo from here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/zr6dn2m3sd4q81i/C432OemInfo-DUALSIM-P9LITE.zip

*flash it via TWRP

*Now download this rollback package from here: http://download-c1.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=93645&version=371484&siteCode=np

*Extract and put files in dload folder on your sd card and flash with the 3 button method.

*Now download this stock rom from here and don't use any other rom just use that one http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G753/g104/v83116/f1/full/update.zip

*Now again extract and replace the files with the new ones on your sdCard and install via the 3 button method.

Wait you said the phone won't even charge? But you need to get to fastboot to do everything..so idk but you can try this

Connect to pc and just before the screen turns on.. press and hold the volume down button maybe that will get you to fastboot

---------- Post added at 11:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 PM ----------

anyway if you manage to get to fastboot.. just do the things I said and it will work
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] MarkusP87:
Hello,

yesterday everything adb,twrp and fastboot was working.

I've tried to flash boot,recovery,recover2 and system via TWRP update.zip (opened UPDATE.APP in Huaweiextractor and clicked create flashable zip) after reboot i did get an "ERROR MODE" , Please Update System now.

With ERR FUNC (hifi image).

Then i tried to Flash the complete update.zip (extracted everything from UPDATE.APP) from a VNS-L31C432B161 Firmware.

After reboot my Phone was Death, it doesn't turn on anymore nor does it regonoize any usb cable.

I think it's done now.

Thanks anyways for your reply!

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] lost3:
same happened to me, totally bricked (after upgrade to nougat) sent it to huawei service center and they replace it with new one, same model , just have to wait 3 weeks
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] MarkusP87:
Just a quick Update.

I've got my Phone back from a Service Center (not HUAWEI) off my Merchant.

They replaced the Mainboard so i have a new IMEI and Serialnumber.

So the Phone works now :)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] PolLovesAndroid:
I am on Xenon HD 7.1 and using the Google camera port with hdr+, photos end up having a pink tint. This is probably caused because I have omnivision camera and it's related to custom ROMs not having the latest camera blobs. For example, if I were to use the camera on latest MIUI with latest blobs hdr+ would probably work fine. Is there no workaround to make it work on custom rom?

The pics already look solid with gcamera alone but hdr+ would make them even better
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] aabenroi:
Nah... The pink tint even there on new MIUI, so I think its not just the blobs... RAW output is broken.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] PolLovesAndroid:
Even with sensors =/= Omnivision?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] goodybags:
Yeah im on MIUI 9 and I still get the pink tint when i try hdr+. Even back in MIUI 8 i also get the pink tint so unless they release a fix for omnivision we're probably gonna still have that problem :(
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] PolLovesAndroid:
That sucks
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] aabenroi:
nope... sony and samsung works well

bugs only on omnivision sensor... try open camera, vf 5, freedcam, whatever apps you use to take RAW picture, you will get the pink picture.

I've submit this bugs 2 months ago : http://en.miui.com/thread-746046-1-1.html

looks like they didn't care or it's unfixable by them...

[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] fxsheep:
My first ROM posted on XDA.:o

This is a port of Redmi 4X final Chinese version of MIUI 8 developer(7.7.20) .

WHAT are the difference from other Redmi 4X port?

-MIUI 8

-"Stock" kernel for better battery saving and less ANRs

-Full f2fs&Dual Boot Patcher support

-FC fixes

-Power off alarm

-CDMA sim cards support

-more optimizations for better experience

WHY it's MIUI8 not 9?

-there are various of MIUI 9 ports from Redmi 4X.

-MIUI 8 has stopped developing so that I can focus on more optimizations instead of keeping updated as stock version.

-There are always someone who likes to use MIUI 8 instead of 9 for some reasons.

-Camera related files of MIUI 9 has changed a lot .I don't know if the camera bug will be easier to fix on this ROM.

BUGS

-Camera and all related functions except flashlight.

-Fingerprint will not be recognized after next reboot

-VoLTE

No split screen
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] amnher:
Those security updates are very important. They are there to pin down those vulnerabilities. Take the Blueborn vulnerability that was pinned down last october 5, 2017 security update. It makes the device more secure aside form SEPolicy. So those arent just numbers to modify on build prop. They mean a whole lot. Well aside that, thank you for this port and hope to see more. People are really treated by MIUI so badly. They boast that they provide updates but those updates like on beta are not necessarily android updates but are just apps updates. Thanks for providing stock nougat.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] william.johhn7!:
Nothing can be done until xiaomi merges the latest security patches with their sources. And the blueborn vulnerability for now can only be controlled by users, said the miui team in response to some enquiries.

Since this ROM is based on los 14 so if it has nothing to do with MIUI Android framework ,there will be no vulnerabilities.

This problem is when I used sn write tool I alwayes got error: Wifi Write faild. Something is bloking write wifi adress. But what? I have a story of avast which blocking my sim status in MKT Tools was blocked. But I dont have this phone I have another P780. with this problem. Maybe there are tools in google with root to unlocked wifi write mac adress?
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
I think all the blockage comes from driver or Windows. I do not know what is creating this trouble.

I have managed to write some IMEI's but in the Windows 7 and with the driver included in my post. I thought it will work on all computers with win 7 but as I see the method works only in certain win 7 .... I do not know why... I am sorry.

I think you should look on other forums or in some service store.... maybe they know something...

Good luck.

BT: 50 3C C4 4B XX YY where XX, YY is 11->99

Is this correct MAC adress in new P780( after 2014)?

P.S Sorry for my bad English.

[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Questions & Answers] kazumamon:
I am a owner of the Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro (Prime) since July this year.

At the moment I am using stock ROM MIUI 8 and loving all the cool Apps.

My only problem is that the ROM is still on Android 6 Marshmallow.

Now I'm thinking about switching to Lineage OS cause I loved the ROM also on my OnePlus 2.

I want to know now, is it possible to install all MIUI 8 Stock Apps like:

File Manager

Scanner

Compass

Mi TV Remote

& Clock Application

If I could use all this Apps with Lineage OS I would probably Root my device and switch.

Hope some Users could help me with this.

Greetings kazumamon

Some will not work on Lineage os i think. But u can can find some of those on play store u need to search with Miui tag. If you want to try backup the apks with Android assistant and try on Los. I think it's worth a shot for you :highfive:

I'm trying to get this app to show me the Google maps I've downloaded. I have replaced the coordinates so that they appear in Spain but I still continue to appear the map completely blank and therefore the use of the program is still only suitable for China, some could tell me what and where I have to modify so that when I load the location do it from maps already downloaded from Google?

I would like attach file but i dont know, its "fl drone 2" in play store

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azvampyre:
What did you use to decompile the apk? I tried but some of the structure was incomplete. It uses the old com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY but the maps failed as of 1.07 according to reviews on the app, possibly because the dev updated to the newest API but didn't update the API or key to com.google.android.geo.API_KEY in AndroidManifest. The com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY is a legacy component and will only work with the legacy v2 maps API. If you can get a copy of v.1.06 you might find it to load the maps if the case is an incomplete update with v.1.07, but these are only theories without seeing the complete source.

From google maps:

Note: As shown above, com.google.android.geo.API_KEY is the recommended metadata name for the API key. A key with this name can be used to authenticate to multiple Google Maps-based APIs on the Android platform, including the Google Maps Android API. For backwards compatibility, the API also supports the name com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY. This legacy name allows authentication to the Android Maps API v2 only. An application can specify only one of the API key metadata names. If both are specified, the API throws an exception.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azvampyre:
I was able to get the maps working worldwide. I was correct in my theory that he screwed up the maps API. Use geo and a new API_KEY, fix the maps method to use the new API, change GET_TASKS to REAL_GET_TASKS so it doesn't halt&&catchFire on newer phones and resign it with the new key.

[Huawei P10 Plus Questions & Answers] giga502:
Hey guys,

Decided I wanted to finally root my P10 Plus since I ordered a Google Daydream and its not officially supported.

Been running stock for a while since its been nice and I'm currently a bit puzzled as to why I'm locked out of my device.

I performed the following.

1.) Unlocked bootloader successfully

2.) Installed TWRP successfully

3.) Installed 14.0 Magisk through TWRP

After this point my phone now bootloops until it gets to the Huawei eRecovery screen.

I'd love to use the inbuilt recovery but whenever it attempts to download the package automatically it fails.

Unfortunately I can't access TWRP, though I can get to fastboot.

I've tried looking around the net for a stock img file to flash but I can't find one anywhere.

Would love some advice for someone to point my in the right direction.

Thanks.

EDIT: Didn't try uninstalling magisk. That did the trick! Problem solved!
[Huawei P10 Plus Questions & Answers] adamelphick:
When I used FunkyHuawei to dual SIM my P10 Plus i had to use TWRP manually as Fastboot would not connect. I found that when trying to reboot in to TWRP sometimes it worked and more often than not it didn't. Just keep trying. I found holding the button until it just started to come to the logo seemed to work for me - but it really was hit and miss.
