My Huawei Mate 10 got in a bootloop after installing Xposed Framework

It was on Android Oreo 8.0 rooted and bootloader unlocked

Lock state info:

FB LockState: LOCKED

USER LockState: UNLOCKED

Leaving the device to boot normally: HUAWEI logo then reboots.

Vol up+power: eRecovery mode … doesn’t work (wiped data and cache .. tried to download firmware through wifi .. nothing works). ... then tried this method it worked while downloading the firmware .. but after verifying the firmware then installing it when it gets from 0% to 1% it fails and a red exclamation mark appears. :crying:

Vol down + power: fastboot: always get: FAILED (remote: Command not allowed) ). even though the bootloader is supposed to be unlocked. :crying:

Vol up and down: download mode .. on USB: stuck at 5% … without USB connection to computer: nothing happens (a red exclamation mark appears).

The device has an SD card slot: I tried placing the UPDATE.APP in dload folder and pressed both volume buttons but nothing appeared .. did I do something incorrectly?

Here are more info:

product-model: ALP-L29

vendorcountry: hw/meafnaf

build-number: System 8.0.0.38(0310)

fastboot getvar rescue_enter_recovery

getvar:rescue_enter_recovery FAILED (remote: FAIL:need all image flashed!)

fastboot oem oeminforead-SYSTEM_VERSION

...

(bootloader) :ALP-L29 8.0.0.128(C185)

Please help.

thanks in advance

====================

FIXED: Thanks to Bordo_Bereli51 who wrote this post and thanks for Ante0 for recommending DC Pheonix and for taking a lot of his time explaining a lot of things to me privately. contacted both as promised.

How I fixed it

(credits to Bordo_Bereli51 for the guide .. I only modified it a bit and added some info from my experience):

1- I purchased a 19 euro -3 days pass for DC Pheonix.

2- Download Firmware Finder and click the "Common Base" tab, then download a FullOTA-MF firmware (all 3 files) which is approved for installation ( I copied the "changelog" link and pasted it in the 6th icon at the top "Firmware Checker" and it returned "Firmware approved for install" I' was not able to repack other non approved firmwares).

3- extract UPDATE.APP from update.zip

4- run DC Phoenix program .. tap the "Standard" button in Update mode .. select "update" and choose the UPDATE.APP you just extracted.

5- let it flash everything successfully then redo step 4 again.

6-

Here's the trick

before it flashes anything

... as soon as you see "utilizing backdoor" (or something like that) open Task Manager and force close DC Phoenix (it has to be BEFORE flashing anything, otherwise you might get errors like:

"error: exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory"

and AFTER utilizing backdoor (so you can use fastboot commands)

7-Download HWOTA8_Mate10 , place the 3 files you downloaded in step 2 in the "repack" folder, and rename "update_data_full_public.zip" to "update_data_public.zip" and "update_full_*ALP-L29*_hw_*meafnaf*.zip" to "update_all_hw.zip". Then run "repack.bat" and wait for it to finish.

8- run "ota.bat" in "ota" folder.

9- When it flashes the recovery_ramdisk and kernel plug your usb cable out and Reboot to recovery by pressing volume up + power button

10- When the phone is in recovery now ADB works (in case you need to do things manually).

11- When this process also finishes, the command center will tell you to press enter, so it boots to erecovery, which will flash the files.

12- Now your phone is unbricked after the flash.

Do not forget to do factory reset by pressing again at boot: (power + volume up) and selecting (factory reset).

After boot allow (OEM Unlock) under (developer settings) or otherwise the FRP will still be locked but the phone will work.
