Hello and Thank you for the he help but as it turns out none of the TWRP have touch but they work, I got into a new issue where my vendor seems to be modified and can't be restored and Causing a bootloop on any GSI and stock.

From faastboot :

flash vendor vendor.img

-----remote command not allowed, failed to flash.

From TWRP:

Installing image to vendor partition says can't install image to system files ,this fails too.

Vendor can't be flashed, is this due to erofs images/partitions? What are the possible solutions here?

vendor_image(inactive slot) partition exists and same size/data as vendor_a,

Anyways to use this to restore to the active slot?

I know for a fact that only vendor partition is the one causing all the issues here, any other way to restore stock?

1)HISUITE for y9s doesn't work from faastboot mode.

2)dload method, never understood this, I have always on placed ???.APP file from stock firmware into the dload folder on root of internal storage, SD card,USB OTG and it never worked, are the specific dload files to use instead of the one's downloaded say by hisuite during upgrade/downgrade?

3)TWRP fails to flash the stock firmware file.

what to do?

Have you tried option "Download latest etc." in eRecovery (if you have access to eRecovery of course).
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
I did and it restored everything and locked bootloader and now have to downgrade and pay again to unlock, I needed to avoid this but it was the only way left
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
strange...full OTA never locks bootloader, but maybe it's because of 710s.

Yes
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
He unlocked with software test point I think, so updating (in my case to A10 from A9) or restoring locks Bootloader, I no longer get the warning message

Not familiar how sources are released for Huawei, say specifically for STK-L22DV, where can kernel sources be found?

A Dev from One Plus community wants to see what he can do to make a compatible TWRP or modded kernel and change erofs partitions to the usual ext4/f2fs to allow data decryption and create a custom ROM
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
Try it with "Unpacker Kitchen for Android(UKA)" , version 5.18 with support for unpacking "erofs" and convert to "ext4".

Download

It is not a problem on hi6250 devices with EMUI 9.1 on board, you should try it, imo.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
Yeson my p10 all is good it's a hi6250 any 9.x TWRP works without fail and data decrypted, the problem is the hi710f soc, this is the one that use TWRP only with mouse, no touch atm till something happens

I see... You can also try the following TWRPs, they work on 710s EMUI 9:

[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
They all boot but no touch have to use mouse, Kang TWRP recognises USB OTG but the one JSNtwrp doesn't and not allowing to use mouse, all this TWRP lag something from my firmware to allow normal touch.

Thank you for all your advises and patience. That UKA module is quite something else, I'll just Google how to port TWRP and maybe find a drag and drop with cut and paste tutorial

For what reason? Is this related to TWRP?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
not at all, this is to expand system partition to install larger GSIs, fo rtht a i needed system and userdata rm first to resize system
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
I would say ANE has a pretty big system partition, but it's your choice.

System resizing makes sense on Honor 9 lite which is 2312M on EMUI 9.1.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
mine is 1.57gb, u can image not a single GSI can fit in here, android 9.1 as well
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
no ideas on how to create this parttition labes?

seems like the only thing stopping the progress, even reverting to original start and ends it still doesnt create labels for rm partitions

Oh, sorry, I keep forgetting you don't have an ANE phone.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
Are you a developer, making roms or staff like that?

Thank you again, the tool you shared here truly helped restore my partitions and back to rooted Android 9.1.

The tutorial I followed somewhere around XDA had a partially functional parted(~472kb) file, but the parted(1.02mb) file in the tool you shared did the trick and i was able to set labels to my removed partitions.

Though I was unable to boot any GSIs probably due to kernel/vendor, am happy the device was never bricked modifying partitions the way I did initially.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:

[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
Which GSI and which installation method?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] danerrickcuba@gmail.com:
All Nippon GSI reboot to bootloader, Nazim/phh GSI hang on the unlocked bootloader warning screen, I tested from Android 9 to 13 GSI, lineage, spark, crDroid, pixel GSI, OEM(Nokia, Samy, Huawei)

Installation by : fastboot install system xxxxx.img

No dynamic partitions

No symless updates support

arm64-ab
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
because they are not phhusson based gsi.

Have you tried anything from the P20 lite section? For example Pixel Experience Plus [11] .

And I hope you do a factory reset in stock recovery after installing system.img :) (before booting up the ROM!)

and it may also be necessary to flash vbmeta, taken from the stock set or from Google, vbmeta link

Command:

fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

Download vndk-lite version, because of system r/w mode.

P.S.: One more piece of advice if I may - try installing AOSP [11] from Phhusson first, e.g.

this one

If the installation fails, other Treble ROMs might not work on your phone either.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] aribk:
Hi,

I'm picking up my work on the P20 Lite, but I need to seek advice, because my notes are not as complete as I could wish. My device currently has the GAGUGA 3.2.1-0 installed over erecovery, which was where I left off. I don't exactly recall what this permits me to do or not?

Also, I noticed that the official TWRP recovery is newer, so I wonder if I should go with that instead?

(I am building Ubuntu Touch based on Android 9.)

Finally: this page seems has been updated since last I worked on this. It details procedures that are very slightly different from what I was doing last year. Is this the guide to follow now?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
This TWRP is missing here:

https://xdaforums.com/t/how-to-change-bl-unlock-code.4226815/post-84401663

Latest TWRP may not be fully compatible with hi6250 if not modified.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
it allows you to have TWRP and Magisk root at the same time.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] aribk:
Thanks for the two replies above.

I have succeeded in building an Ubuntu Touch version based on Android 9 (Halium 9) and got the device to boot. While I was tweaking the kernel so as to achieve the graphic UI, however, the device suddenly switched to booting directly to the GAGUGA version TWRP which is installed over erecovery.

Now, despite undoing my kernel changes and rebuilding the version that booted successfully, this behavior continues.

I also noticed that when I perform a wipe/factory reset, I get a message about it not being able to format cache. I'm not sure whether this was there previously.

Do you have any ideas why this might have happened or what could be causing the above?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
This happens if the software does not work properly, the phone is automatically restarted in recovery mode (eRecovery).

I can't help you, all about Ubuntu Touch is Greek to me :)

I hope you don't do a factory reset in TWRP. This is strongly not recommended on Huawei devices!
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] aribk:
Aaah! Well, that's probably where I went wrong. I did a factory reset a couple of times at least. This may very well be the reason. How can I fix this, given that this is the source of the problem?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
It's just one of the possible causes. As I said before, I don't know what the problem is.

Hello

is there a patched recovery with magisk for emui 9.1 with custom rom (leaos) or instructions on how to produce such a recovery image? Or should I just take the red pill and flash sky hawk?

Thx a bunch =)

EDIT: preferably a magisk version of 3.4.0-0-emui9_eR if that's possible because that's the one TWRP that actually works

Hi have seena couple of posts but with no solution.

My problem is whenever i go to check my googlemail through my home wifi on my diamond all it does it pop up with the incoming email password screen and thats all.

when this was set up originally there was no problems and have done no upgrades or flashing since this.

i have installed diamond tweaks and advanved config manager but cant see anything within these that would stop me .

Have logged in to google mail on desktop pc and changed my password to elimate password name problems but still no joy.

ANY IDEA GUYS??? im stumped.

p.s obviousli i have delted acount on numeros occasions and rsoft reset then rre added account and used auto detection account setup and done it the manual way.

am on swiftys 5.6rom

gmail not working

It has been treated a few times in those forums

It's a WM bug

Only work around :

Delete the gmail account on your diamond and create a new one with a DIFFERENT name (gmail01, gmail02...)

I had the same problem and this is the only way i could solved it...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] coopigeon:
Thanks guys but i just sorted it.

IF anyone has this problem then this is what you must do . Login to your google mail from a desktop or laptop and enter your settings.

click configure outlook (even though your not using outlook ) then there a common issues tab near the top of the screen.

The first one in the list is "Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error."

To sort this you must hit the " Clear the captcha "tab .

Then connect via you phone wirelessly abd do the same .

(personally i didnt ave to do it on my phone as it cleared the problem straight away) but it does say to do this on the device your having trouble logging in on .

Definitely sorted it as i have done nothing else that could take credit for it working and it hasnt been working for ages .

cheers hope this helps

I'm in my settings in Gmail, and I'm in the common issues, but I can't seem to find the "Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error."
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] coopigeon:
Do it from your pc . log into gmail and up top right hit settings. then click pop /imap forwarding then under each section there is an underlined configure client or configure outlook tab. if your in the section where you switch on pop and imap your in the right place.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] sonnybravo:
Thanks for the info, I found the configure outlook, but I can't find the problem in the "common issues"

What do you mean by "Clear the captcha" tab? do you mean cache?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] coopigeon:
when you have clicked configure instructions and the next screen comes up click outlook express.another screen comes up and fourth tab along it says common errors. click that then click first in the list which is

Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error.

A little drop down appears with a tab to clear captcha. click that let it do its thing . should do the trick for ya

hang on a sec , did you do it from your phone also? .connect worelessly use your phone browser and do the same. plus when you have done that ,reset the email account on your phone.

Hello sonnybravo

After reading this thread I thought I'd sign in to my gmail account (I don't use it much, but thought it would be a useful backup to my pop when I'm out and about). Anyway, I get the same issue as you; the blank white screen with 'Google' in the top left hand corner.

Not exactly an emergency for me, but if you do get to the bottom of it, I'd appreciate a shout.

Strange enough, I've found only one person (below) other than me complaining about jarring ultrawide 4k videos recorded on S20 FE.

To device. I noticed later that "video stabilization" was on in the settings when I recorded ultrawide 4k videos . I don't have the issue after turning it off, so I suppose the hardware is fine. EIS may not be optimized yet. Hopefully the upcoming One UI 3.0 update includes better EIS.

I have a very old Wikipad tablet, which these days tends to only get used for playing old video games. I hadn't used it for a few months, but now whenever I switch it on I get an error:

"Unfortunately, System UI has stopped"

No matter how many times I tap OK, the error just keeps popping up, with the occasional "unfortunately, Launcher has stopped" thrown in as well.

There are plenty of suggestions online for how to fix these errors (remove apps, empty cache, etc.), but those all rely on you actually being able to access the UI and settings. I can never get past these errors on top of a blank screen.

If I enter the Power/Volume-Down boot menu, I get the options of "normal boot", "fastboot protocol", "recovery kernal" and "forced recovery". Selecting "Recovery Kernel" shows the image of the android lying down with an exclamation mark above it. However, I'm not sure where to go from there. No commands appear on screen and various power/volume button combinations don't seem to do anything.

Does anyone know the correct commands to do a factory reset on a Wikipad (or have any other suggestions as to how to resolve the errors)? I'm not bothered about losing all of the data on it.

Thanks!
[General Topics] airfrog7:
OK, after weeks of scratching my head on this one for a few weeks and deciding to post the question on this forum, I figured it out myself a couple of days later :cool:

I downloaded Fastboot and Android USB drivers from the links posted here:

Fastboot.zip, ADB, & Android USB Drivers | HighOnAndroid.com

highonandroid.com

I installed Android USB drivers (by ClockworkMod). I plugged the Wikipad in to my laptop (Windows 10), powered it off and booted it holding the power and volume down keys. I selected the "fastboot protocol" option. An unknown "fastboot" device then appeared in Device Manager. I had to manually select the ClockworkMod generic Android driver before it was recognised.

Running "fastboot devices" then listed a device. Running "fastboot -w" then deleted all user data (there's no confirmation prompt, it just runs). It also threw an error:

"CreateProcess failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. (193)

fastboot: error: Cannot generate image for userdata"

I ignored the error and rebooted the Wikipad. It then booted in to the first time start-up wizard and the System UI errors are gone. All of the data I had on it is gone too, but that's no big deal.
