[P8 Lite (2017) Development] dtrail1:
dload doesn't work. Still greeting me with EMUI logo. Hard brick? Just from relocking bootloader??

EDIT: OMG! I was able to force it somehow.. I've opened the back case and unpluged the battery, tried some other options, such as plugging the cable and holding buttons without the battery being plugged in. But that didn't do anything. So I connected the battery again, then hold only both Vol buttons this time (without power), plugged the USB cable and suddenly it started to install the UPDATE.APP from the dload folder on my sdcard. RIght now it sits at 5%. I hope it continues...

EDIT: Aaaadn it WORKED! YEAH! I got my EMUI screen back, but this time WITH BUTTONS! Also fastboot mode is working again!!!

So, guys, this time I really don't want to mess it up. Please tell me how I can go back to stock / switch to another rom. Bootloader is now RELOCK status, FRP locked. I have BL unlock code though, but needs OEM unlock in dev options. SO there is only one way I guess: Flash stock rom, right? Using HiSuite rescue doesn't work. It tells me to take it to a service/repair point.

When I perform the recovery option on erecovery it connects to wifi but then tells me "Getting package info failed". So I think I have to manually flash the stock rom?

EDIT AGAIN xD : dload actually restored erecovery, but when I wanto to install the full firmware it fails. Did I use the wrong file? I've used the latest version for my device.

After a LOT of tinkering and trial error I was able to restore my device!

To sum it up ( for anyone who might be interested due to a similar problem):

1. AFter I've relocked the bootloader - Running Morfuz 4.0 ROM. Don't ask me why I did it, I forgot it. But I did it, and that reulted in:

- Empty screen after "Team Phenom Logo (Usually Huawei Logo. But the Morfuz BL replaces it) followed by a EMUI logo without any buttons or anything. No interaction possible, except longpress POWER to restart.

2. Since I couldn't even power it off, I opened the case and unplugged the battery.

3. This allowed me to boot into dload (There was no eRecovery, no TWRP accessible, nothing!)

4. I've pulled the latest Firmware file from Firmware Finder (only UPDATE.ZIP) ***

5. Extract the file "UPDATE.APP" (found in the UPDATE.ZIP)

6. Flashed it via dload (Power off, Press and Hold BOTH VOL-Key + POWER-KEY)

-- Now I had eRecovery back working (and stock recovery), but nothing else was working. My Bootloader was in RELOCKED state, FRP LOCK! So what now?

-- NOTHING worked! No dload, no fastboot flash, none of the methods found here and anywhere. Also pulling the proper firmware directly from Team MT Server (Firmware Finder) didn't work! Even though I've set the proper DNS, etc, etc.

-- So, what did it at the end??

7. *** Downloaded an OLDER firmware build! Before I downloaded the 8.0.0.402 (PRA-LX1C432B402), which is the recent Oreo OTA update from April 1th (I guess it was it).

But since I was running the 8.0.0.375 build before I flashed Morfuz Rom, the device wasn't able to update to the newer version (402). So I went ahead and downloaded this build: 8.0.0.375 (PRA-LX1C432B375)

--> I've put the included UPDATE.APP into the dload folder on my sdcard, forced dload boot and BAM! It worked!! Now I was able to unlock FRP, re-unlock the bootloader, and that's it!
