so it mades me more angry and mad to know that i just use the bad .262 , i noticed about the file size but was not a big thing when i did flash, i hope everyone notice and gonna check that before flash because it really hard brick the phone there s nothing we can do about that except send it to repair...who made the mistake to rename it bad?

i am sure i am not the only one in that case...
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Well, there are ways to unbrick it, especially if you have backups.

However, the mistake it's ours, when we decided to unlock and use tools like the no_check, we also accepted the risk.

With stock software/recovery, that brick of yours would have never occurred, so you either take the risk and install unapproved stuff, or wait for official OTA updates.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] soza971:
i agree about that its a risk about unlocking and flashing it and i ignored it, the thing is that i had several phones and the huawei are the hardest to flash, downgrade and more. i dont even talk about the fact to pay to get bootloader code. i will sell it if they repair it and its fixed.

in my case i dont think there was a way to unbrick it except the point when u open the phone but even with that...i dont think the phone was like dead, not reconignze anywhere ,no fasboot,no recovery anyway it does not matter it went to repair since about more than 2 weeks i am waiting for it to back then i will probably sell it.

Mate 10 pro hard brick

Hello.

Can i fix my mate 10 pro (bla L29) hard bricked when i downgrade (XL2 to XL1), 10 months ago.

If yes, please give me link (paid or free no matter)

If no, should I just throw it or wait again.?

I though there will be a solution in time!

Thanks
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ssophus:
Thanks a lot

It look hard and need skills, but I'll give it try.

Have nothing to loose.

Thank you again. Appreciate.

I was able to get the phone to unlock fastboot but it seems it was temporary. As to I'm not able to flash anything afterwards. After using the test point method the phone turns on temporarily and I see that the bootloader is unlocked but then it shuts off. Is this normal? Sorry I'm a noob when it comes to these devices.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
It's temporary until you reboot or unplug USB. You need to flash while it's in testpoint mode (screen black).if it boots after flashing testpoint you may need to keep battery unplugged until it has started flashing fastboot.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] pacoe:
Thanks for the response appreciate the help.

This is what I have tried so far:

1. Disconnected the battery to set phone in test point mode. Once it's on this mode I then connect the phone's battery and continue to flash bootloader unlock file. I get the result that the bootloader is unlocked with frp still locked. My screen turn on for a few seconds on fastboot mode and shows me the same result the it shuts off.

2. I try to flash the board file and it fails. Say it's not allowed.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] pacoe:
I was finally able to revive my phone but now I'm stuck with a phone on erecovey that does not boot. Also my imei info is gone. The phone is bootloader and frp locked. There is a way to unlock the bootloader temporarily without having to pay DC unlocker. Actually found the method through one of the forums here. That is how I was able to reflash the OS. It was not a an easy task but at least I know I'm going somewhere. The only bad thing is that my phone is the US variant and I'm stuck on the last 9.0 image available. I'm assuming it's march

security patch which would be the first pie update available. If anyone has a more updated BLA-A09 update file it would be nice if you could provide it.

Honor 8x dead

Hello, I'm common but I have a little knowledge, and I need to save my honor 8x China (JSN-AL00a) that only appears in the edl testpoint, this I say because it appears in the Windows 10 device manager as (HUAWEI USB COM 1.0 ), I don't have a dongle at all, I would like to know if I could fix it, is there any software that can do for edl point without dongle? Honor 8x kirin 710. thaks
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ssophus:
hi,after almost 2 year I was finally able to revive my phone,mate 10 pro bla-l29 (c33),rebranded in bla-l29 (c432)successfully ,but hardbricked a while after that when I was downgrading from an xloader2 firmware to anxloader1 when thus stuff was newcoming from HUAWEI ,but helpfully i find a way to gothrow with testpoint methode (usbser to huawei usb port )without flashing motherboard firmware and without losing my ( ime,serial, . . . ) or any other informations ,BUT not without pain ,caus after all that time my battery was dead, yes completely out. and that was the hardest part to fix.

1-but with some search I was able to revive it with an external charger and using direct cable connection to the pin of the battery .

2-then.i find in YouTube a video with a guy using a software (MRT Dongle),so searched for free version or a trial version just to try it, (caus to be honest I completely forgot about my phone and I wasn't even in my mind at this time), but couldn't, so I decided to try an old cracked version fund in YouTube too,

and I did it finally, and I even get ota updare with bootloaders still unlocked.

so everyone in my case don't throw your phone yet,

hope given hope for someone, ...

You should make a step by step guide
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Afaik, NRD90-test should be Nougat not Oreo, so how was that possible.

If you read here, latest posts - > https://xdaforums.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279/page26 <- you will see that [MENTION=281758]xpdragon[/MENTION] updated just fine and i don't think it was luck.

I mean, how it's possible that one device got bricked and other updated just fine?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] royhanks3:
If I can add my two cents in, I've bricked 2 Mate 10's and I can explain my process. First mate was 132 and I updated to 134 noxloader. I then flashed back to 132 because safety-net wasn't passing a I got a brick.

The second time around, I rebranded from C605 to C636 and flashed 134 (without noxloader label) just fine and I even unlocked my bootloader on that version too. 134 had a lot of bugs and a nasty battery drain, so I decided to try 134 noxloader again and received another brick.

Currently I'm on 135 and flashed fine, but I think I'll be staying on this rom for a very long time because I believe there is some sort of issue with the latest firmware and I'd rather not have to replace another Mate
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
So no "clean" B132 - > B134 (noxloader) - > B135.

First time you downgraded to B132 (but B134 noxloader didn't bricked your device the first tine).

The second time you went to B134 (16/04) and then B134 noxloader.

I can't guarantee anything, obviously, but i'm quite positive that with clean B132 - >B134 noxloader - >B135 update, you won't brick.

That's what i did with my BLA-L29 C432, flashed B141 noxloader over B140 and then updated to B142, no brick.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] royhanks3:
We may be fine going forward, but I think a stern warning should be issued for those after us to be aware that bricking is now extremely more likely with newer firmware than it once was. Or wait for the official ota.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
I would advise people to stay away from the firmwares from 16/04.

Obviously, waiting for OTA update it's the safest way,but for those that already updated to B134 (16/04) i' m not so sure that an OTA wouldn't brick. FF firmwares are srill unofficial so as long as a firmware doesn't pass IMEI check, anything could happen.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] k4fari:
I restricted myself to c185 now. I will not go for c636. The C185 is at least safest while updating and downgrading.

Sorry it was not NRD-90, it was some build num 8.0.0. 38. Which is why i downgraded to 132 and bricked my phone.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Oh, that make more sense. That build is coming up usually after an incomplete rebrand and it's fixed by flashing a Full firmware for the selected brand.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
So it seems it's narrowed down to C636 at least.

I've flashed the noxloader for C432 twice, downgraded and upgraded after and it went fine. (Though I didn't repack any of them)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] k4fari:
Me and the mostly others were on C636 who bricked their phones, no C432 or C185 bricks reported yet.

He has Mate 9 aka BLA-AL00

Please create a thread in Mate 9 forums. This is for Mate 10. Me especially I dont know how to help you as I have only Mate 10 Pro.

Back to op:

I hadn't a brick even when I used noxloader. I went from .137 --> .141noxloader -->.142. All Firmwares were for c432 models, so I didnt rebrand it. For this I used the hwota without repacking method. After hotspot was not working, I downgraded back to .137 c432 from .142 c432 using the hwota without repacking and hadnt a brick. Something triggers that brick maybe. Brand specific? C432 maybe not affected from that bug that triggers the brick?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] reza6d:
So huawei doesn't see this problem as warranty void ? i sent it too,its under investigation but i didn't believe that they would consider this under warranty if they understand that my bootloader was unlocked and i rebranded it.

Happy for you btw,waiting for my device :(
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] xpdragon:
Just wonder if anyone with ALP-LP29 successfully updated from C636B134 to B135. I only see successful updates from C636B134 noxloader to B135, including myself.

I think anyone accidentally updated to C636134, you could be in tough spot to move forward with firmware updates.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] trd_jzx100:
i rang them up told them the firmware was updated and just got a black screen after that. maybe the tech that diagnosed my phone couldnt be bothered and just thought it would be easier to give me a new phone. i do consider myself lucky as i thought my warranty would be void.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] fatdonuts:
ALP-L29C636 [ .132 » .134(noxloader) » .135 ]

No rebrand, no bricks(for now) :eek: all updates using huRUpdater method via twrp
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
I would say that my theory was correct so people with ALP-L29 C636 and BLA-L29 C636 should stay away from ALP-L29 C636 B134 dated 16/04/2018 and BLA-L29 C636 B127 dated 16/04/2018.

So far we learned that for:

ALP-L29C636 - B132 - > B134 (noxloader) - > B135 = no brick

B132 - > B134 (16/04 build) - > B135 = hard-brick

B132 - > B134 (16/04 build) - > 134 (noxloader) = hard-brick

I think that also B132 - > B135 = no brick ,but no guarantee

BLA-L29 C636 - Bxxx - > B137 - > B138 = hard-brick

Note: We still don't know if people that are still on ALP-L29C636 B134 (16/04 build) will be safe when an official update will arrive.Same for people on BLA-L29 C636 B137 (16/04 build)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
What I found in xloader of ALP-L29C636B134 (regular version) and BLA-L29C636B137 from 04/16 is that you have a 02 instead of 01 on offsets:

000001A8

00000474

00000740

000231A8

00023474

00023740

It could be what's causing it. That's atleast the only obvious change between the xloaders.

It's 01 in the others I've checked, which are ALP-L29C636B134 noxloader, BLA-L29C432B141 noxloader, BLA-L29C432B142, ALP-L29C636B135.

I'm not sure what that switch does though, maybe it disables write to xloader partition?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] goldybewon:
A Big Q?

You guys are expert in firmware checking but what about us?

We don't know proper maths calculation of firmware. What is in or what will be changed in future.

What precautions do we follow in future, when we flash any new updates?

Regarding, I have found something on Funky, why they don't release 135 for ALP-636? (Attached below).

I request Devs, Make some powerful tool for checking firmware.

No more bricks please.:crying:

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
If you want to be safe, there's only one way, wait for Huawei's approved firmwares, period.

Nobody knows what Huawei devs are doing so there will never be a 100% brick proof tool or anything else.

Like i said, you want safety, then stay away from modding, this is my advise to anyone...at least until an unbrick tool like DC-Phoenix will work.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] reza6d:
Guys, my BLA-L29 was originally c185

So it was my first huawei phone decided to update it by myself with mankind tool,updated successfully.

Then rebranded it to c432 from there to c636

When faceunlock feature introduced with c432 noxloader i installed that no problem at all,then a random persistent voltea icon started appearing on top left and made me annoy.

In curiosity of removing that i rooted my phone with magisk and then after some weird stuff i got myself into bootloop.

With self-confidence of rebrading many times,i thought rebranding from bootloop to a c605 that day release (it was 2018/4/16 i think) would solve my problem,then guess what ?

Successful update screen and shut down to silent death.showing usb ser in device manager,with drivers shows as huawei com 1.0

So i tried dc phoenix HDE flasher etc which they didn't work and got refund,so no chance.

I dont have huawei guarantee in my country,only the company who imported the phone got guarantee i sent them the device,guess what ? they saw that bootloader was unlocked (i dont know how) and try to solve the problem,so i asked them what will happen if you cant solve it ? (since they said they are trying to solve with software,but as far as i know there is no software way for NOW,you need to change emmc which is hard to find and easier to change motherboard whhich is more than half of money of my phone),and they said if they couldn't solve,they would give the device back.

So im waiting here for them to call,but if any chance they solve it by software i will share every detail of work done by them to help you guys out,until then wish me luck,or i will get a bricked to sit on my desk for the day that this issue would get fixed.

BTW do you think if we all email to huawei would make them do something about this ?

P.S as far as i guess they changed some thing about bootloader partition and since all the methods for example try to write to C:// but now bootlader is at D:// and tools cant write bootloader since its trying to write to a partition thats not available.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bordo_Bereli51:
I dont thinks so that huawei want to cooperate with us about that problem as unlocking bootloader and rebranding voids warranty and brings some risk of hard bricking.

The VoLTE icon is telling your Voice over LTE, which will give you more voice quality.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
So you rebranded from C432 to C636 then to C605, in that order?

If you flashed B137 of C636 it would explain the brick.

It doesn't brick when you flash the affected build, only when you update/downgrade/rebrand from it.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Exactly! Now i wonder what will happen to those that are still on the affected builds (if any,), will an official update also brick the device?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] royhanks3:
Can we all/one of you brilliant guys confirm that 135 is fine to update from (if there are anymore updates)? That's the current firmware I'm on and it was the first rom I flashed when rebranding from C605 (I think) and if I'm going to be stuck on this firmware forever, I'd rather know now than to even risk trying to update and getting another brick.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] reza6d:
I know what VOLTE is my friend,it just annoyed me to have it as persistent non removable big icon on top left taking half free space of status bar.

I regret every moment i tried to rebrand my phone,i was really happy with my mate 10 pro but just this problem alone makes me regret of buying this device,cause as a junior developer and someone that likes flashing, rooting, ROMS, etc,it shouldn't harm my device with an update which is released by my manufacture,it just wont make sense,i know it will be solved in any day soon but its real funny to not have a phone for like a month.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] reza6d:
yes in that order.

This was the firmware i used when rebranding to c605,btw repacking part normally always said its already patched,but for this build it did something on the file,then brick happened.

here is the photo of that firmware i used last time.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] reza6d:
IF it helps,just wait dont update or try to rebrand any time soon until issue of us get solved,then at least we will know what the cause was or how to solve it.

i cant say which was the safest one,but since noxloader versions showed up on firmwarefinder (faceunlock feature for mate 10 pro) this things came up.

Just be careful,you wont stuck on 135,waiting is better than regret we are having :)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] royhanks3:
Trust me, I'm two bricks in and still can't determine what the hell caused both bricks. Regardless, I'll be on 135 until this mess gets solved

Hi, my phone is originally a ALP-L09 C432. I flashed several firmwares and rebrands, I also flashed Custom ROMs, soft bricked it several times by corrupting System and data partitions, even once somehow the frp got lock and my system partion got currupted while i was trying to flash a treble aosp from twrp. Fixed it with dc phoenix after paying 15 euros and it used the backdoor to unbrick (fastboot was still working but with frp locked and no os in system due to corruption).

I also did these changes:

1) The phone came with some old alp-l09 C432 firmware and updated itself to latest official B133

2) Rebranded to ALP-L29 C636 and flashed B135 C636 => no brick

2) Flashed B136 C432 over the B135 C636 => no brick

3) Rebranded again (restored original oem.info) to ALP-L09 in case some day I get a hard brick and returning it for warranty so the won´t find that i changed the model by rebranding, in europe unlocking bootloader doesnt void the warranty => no brick

There is no point for me to rebrand to alp-l29 c636 because i still can flash those firmwares through hwota8 manually.

so far no hard bricks

Currently my phone is ALP-L09 C432 with the model name changed to NEO-L29 for better compatibility with Netflix and other apps as I did here: how-to-netflix-hd-hdr-mate-10
