Hello guys!
Let me tell you a story...
I bought an Lumia 710 a few days ago and now I want do debrand it and update it to Windows Phone 7.8. I've followed every single tutorial I could find on the internet, starting from debranding to unlocking bootloader and jailbreaking it. Didn't tried everyone in fear of messing the phone up.
I ended up on Nokia Care Suite with a few firmware files and a very huge desire to update my phone. The matter is that, as soon as I connect my phone to start the flashing process on NCS, it reboots (the phone), vibrates and keeps on this semi-power off state. I know that this was supposed to happen, but now NCS doesn't recognise my phone in *any* way. I can reboot the phone holding vol+, reboot holding nothing, start all over again... Just nothing.
All I want is to debrand my phone to a Nokia firmware (not a TIM one, I really hate those custom boot and apps) and update it to WP7.8, but I also want to work with Zune (sync and updates). Can someone PLEASE help me?
One more thing: when I was reading about all these stuff, I came up with the unlocking bootloader process. It said that I needed to have the Qualcomm boot loader, so I tried to identify it (holding vol+ and plugging USB) and it appeared on my device manager something like Qualcomm MSM blah blah blah. This means that my phone is with Qualcomm bootloaders, right?
Thanks in advance!
If device manager says you have a Qualcomm bootloader you are 90% of the way there
All you need to do now is download this downloader.exe
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1665821
Download NaviFirm Plus from here
http://www.symbian-toys.com/navifirm.aspx
In Navifirm Plus, navigate to here
http://localhostr.com/files/jXWZZOI/Capture.PNG
And hit the download button
When it is downloaded, goto the download location and copy this file to the desktop or a folder
http://localhostr.com/files/eT3POA2/Capture.PNG
Use 7zip to extract that file and you should have 'boot.img' file
Rename that to stock.nb (You'll need to enable file extensions to be shown so you can see the .img and .nb extensions - do that from folders view menu)
Now extract that downloader.exe you got from the first link I posted and copy stock.nb into the same folder
You should have downloader.exe and stock.nb in that folder
Ok, now unplug your phone from the PC
Power off the phone
Hold Volume+ button in and plug in the phone to USB > PC
When you feel the short vibrate, release the Volume+ button
IF THE PC ASKS TO FORMAT THE PHONE, PRESS CANCEL, DO NOT FORMAT OR YOUR PHONE IS DEAD
Wait for the driver to install (If it has not already)
Run downloader.exe as Admin
Press the button on the downloader.exe to start flashing the phone
Wait for it to complete then remove the phone battery for 10 seconds, and then put it back in and reboot into 7.8
Done
If you can't stop the phone rebooting after plugging in the USB cable, try it without the battery in
If you don't have the qualcomm bootloader, use this NSS to flash the bootloader then repeat the above

THANK YOU! Updated to Windows Phone 7.8 with this method
I don't want to sound inconvenient, but how do I jailbreak/root it now? This is the last thing that is missing
Thanks a LOT!

No problem
You can't actually jailbreak stock ROMs yet (Sucks I know), you have to flash an already unlocked ROM from one of the devs here
Same method as above, only swap the stock ROM for the custom one
(What I missed from above, and thankfully you were clever enough to know not to do it, is when the PC asks to format the phone, ALWAYS press CANCEL, DO NOT FORMAT or you kill the phone dead !)

And how can I modify an stock-rom to add these features? I was searching for it a few time ago, I've played with the OS Builder but I was a bit nervous on doing something wrong. I've also searched for some tutorials but haven't found anything yet. Can you point me where I should start?
Thanks!

I'd ask one of the devs here, I haven't tried to customise a ROM yet
Just reply to one of the 710 custom ROM threads or PM the dev
first, i would recommend you doing some reading: wp7 chef central

This case is very simple to solve. When you try to install a custom recovery with your bootloader locked, the phone system detects it and give you a message of an error in security, like in your case. To solve this, you'll need to reflash your rom. By doing this, the KDZ will reflash the original recovery and you will be able to access your phone/recovery again.
Step by step:
1. You need to install fastboot drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119090
Turn off the phone and remove the battery. Download THIS and exctract it to C:/. Open device manager in windows (Rigt click on Computer > Manage > Device manager) and connect your phone without the battery to pc via USB cable. Look in device manager for a new hardware connected, right click on it and click in update drivers. In the window open, select "Search for software driver in the computer" and in the window open select insert C:\fastboot\usb_drv_windows, tick the option "include subfolders" and advance. A pop up window may appear asking you if you do want to install the driver, choose YES and the drivers will install.
2. Navigate to the folder you extracted (C:/fastboot) and double click on start.bat. It will ask you for administrator privileges, just say yes.
3. Select your phone model (2 for P760, 3 for P765, 4 for P768 and 5 for P769). It will ask you to turn off your phone and remove battery. When you done with that, press enter. It will now ask you to insert USB cable with the phone without the battery and after 4 seconds re-insert the battery. Onde you done with that, it wil return a message to press any key. In this step the fastboot drivers may be installed again. Don't worry, it's normal
4. Remove the battery again, wait a few seconds and re-insert it.
5. Plug the USB cable in the phone with the battery in and let VOL UP pressed. The phone will enter in SW Update mode.
6. Follow THIS to reflash your rom. A list of avaiable official roms of different models is HERE. Remember to only flash roms made for your phone model or you may get some issues.
7. You're all done I recommend using THIS TWEAK, the phone becomes more responsive.
*** If you flashed a JellyBean rom (V20X.kdz) you can easily root with THIS and if you want CWM recovery use THIS ONE ------ REMEMBER NOT TO FLASH ANY CUSTOM ROM WITH THIS RECOVERY BECAUSE I'M CONSIDERING YOUR BOOTLOADER IS LOCKED AND FOR THIS REASON, YOU CANNOT FLASH CUSTOM ROMS WITH CWM, IT JUST DOESNT WORK!!!
Hope it help you
It works!!

Thank you so much. Yes my P769 BOOTLOADER definitely is locked and I can't even root it with all methods provided in xda, I use exactly your method to get my L9 back to life -- although I have to flash it back to original stock but at least it's BACK! Thank you so much. I saw some other people have the same issue but they can't make it work, hopefully your answer shed the light to ALL!
security error just use the lg pc suite and remove the lines or the host put recover via recovery and put your imei and it will start to download the stock Rom

I tried this method and the offline kdz method and here is the trouble I am having.
1. With this method I do everything perfect the device shows up for a couple seconds then it disappears so I cannot go any further.
2. With the offline fix I followed the OP to the letter and when I get to the part where I click on "normal web upgrade" I open it and start the upgrade as stated in the OP and nothing. I get the retry or cancel internet warning and ignore or close it and it will not even try pushing the file.
Anyway I have tried 2 different machines to no avail I am wondering if anyone has had a similar problem and fixed it?

Didn't work for me! But I tried another method and that saved me from a lot of steps.
Just install the driver and the latest LGMobile Support Tool
Start your phone in Software upgrade mode... Power + Vol up
In the LGMobile Support Tool click on Options and then Upgrade Recovery
Put your IMEI in the option that pops up
Wait for the miracle!
It worked for me ... NO MORE LG SECURITY ERROR

Thats whats wrong, this method only works with a full unlock. Not just a simlock. Still a full unlock is well worth it though! Take it from me!

I got the same message when I made this tutorial. Please make sure you have followed the tutorial step by step!
To get Nokia Connectivity make sure you have your Nokia turned on, and not into OSBL MODE!
This helped for me:
- Try to Run NSS Pro as administrator by right clicking on the exe, then click Run as administrator
- Make sure when you power off your Nokia (step 8), disconnect your USB from computer

You can only sync your music, videos back to your phone by using Zune, since the wp7 easy backup isn´t working on this ROM
First time you connect your Lumia to Zune after installing ROM:
1. The first message you get is a headline where it´s written "START"
2. Click Next
3. Next headline is "Name your Phone", write a name on your phone
4. Click Next, and it will say "Checking for update" (Don´t worry, it will not install the original 7.8 software for Lumia 800)

I am sorry but you will not be able to get the old messages and game history back on Lumia

Okay, here you go!:
1. Restart your computer
2. Before the Windows boot-screen appears hit 'F8'. This is best performed by pressing F8 repeatedly once the reboot starts
3. Select 'Disable Signed Driver Verifiction' from the list of boot options, it will be near the bottom
4. Once Windows finishes booting, start from step 4 in the tutorial
Have a nice day!
DLOAD f..k
Unlock bootloader from DLOAD to Qualcomm work perfect!
Hey thanks a lot!! I am using the rainbowmod now! But can you tell me how to download apps paid for free?
Can I update this?
Really great job, it works like a charm. But I have a little question for you, guys.
What happens if I update from this ROM? My phone will be automatically locked again?
Sorry for my English and have a nice day.
Okay guys, I think my phone has a soft brick (no boot logos), so I'm trying to do some restoration... but I'm not having much success.
So, I found a solution in XDA (/showthread.php?t=825173&page=3) saying that I should plug my phone in without battery, SD nor chip and disable the "LG Modem" on my Device Manager. Afterwards, start KDZ Updater and configure it to CS_EMERGENCY. Then I should install a 2.1 French firmware and as soon as KDZ finishes I'd plug off my phone, plug it back in and start it in DL mode again, this time flashing a file named "OUT.kdz", which gives back the boot logos.
Problem: KDZ Updater hangs as soon as I press "Start". It simply freezes when it's in CS_EMERGENCY. I have no solution to this whatsoever, and I also have another thread with previous problems I ran into (Soft-Bricked LG GT540 Optimus).
These are the best forums I've found for any kind of phone, so I'm positive I'll get the help I need, even if I might need to wait some time. Kudos to the admins and every member for taking part of such a great community!

I've fixed all my issues! I'll paste what I said in another thread. Yay for one-full-year struggles!
Just wanted to leave my 2 cents here, I've been trying to do my best since around august 2014, no success. 2 days ago I retried this, and I DID IT! I will tell everyone what I did very shortly:
My problem that I solved: I can boot, device works like a charm. But: no boot logos, no recovery.
My solution for TL;DR: UNINSTALL ALL DRIVERS FROM DEVICE MANAGER 1ST, then reinstall. After that, flash a fastboot ROM and use it to WIPE ALL THE DATA IN YOUR PHONE! THIS was what I needed and was never explained: you had to WIPE the old data in order to get the boot screens back.
IN THIS ORDER (THANK YOU to those people from previous replies, gathering all your info was of great value):
Uninstall all of your phone drivers from your PC!!! This is what made most of my headaches go away, just use Device Manager and uninstall anything from LGE. After that, plug in your device in your USB ports (always BACK ports, not front ports, important). It should detect all drivers and download them.
IF it fails (it generally does with LGE USB Modem), you can go to Device Manager > Unknown Device (the one that wasn't recognized) > Right Click and Update > Choose 2nd option, then choose "choose from a list of local controllers" (or whatever the button says). After that, scroll down to LG Electronics, Inc. and install what didn't install.
I also found these drivers, but I did not test them: http://www.mediafire.com/download/p693hcz6kkouh19/USB_Driver_LG_GT540.zip
Huzzah!
Now you're set to begin:
FIRST thing you wanna do is a factory reset, this is something I'd forgotten with time, don't make the same mistake as I did. You can do it by turning your phone on and pressing Volume +/- & Home & Quick Search buttons all together for 5 seconds (it works, be patient and wait for it, even if you open the camera or any other stuff).
Download this Google SDK Tools (unzip and put the folder in C:\ drive) and this Fastboot drivers for GT540 (unzip and put the files inside the folder in C:\android-sdk).
Skip this next line if you know your ROM has fastboot.
Now, if you don't have a ROM with fastboot, I recommend you use either European Open+Fastboot or V20C Orange France Fastboot ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Since you have Fastboot enabled, now all you need to do is turn off your device (all this with its battery on it, no weird things) and hold the Camera button before turning it back on. This should take you either to a black screen, or simply to no display, like me. Either one will work anyways.
Now press the Windows key > Type cmd and open it with Right Click > Run as Administrator.
In it, type all this, command by command (you can paste by right clicking):
cd C:\android-sdk
fastboot -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase system
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And now it's go time! Do what everyone else says in here: Take out your phone's battery, SD and SIM cards, fire KDZ Updater up as Administrator (If your KDZ freezes, then it's either faulty or you did not install msxml, look for a good KDZ that comes with that file and delete your current one), choose CS_Emergency PhoneMode and:
1-Plug your phone while holding the volume DOWN button (don't worry! My phone didn't show "Download Mode" either, if you hear the Windows "Somethingpluggedin" Bump noise, it's ok).
2-Flash French V20A
3-Unplug your phone once KDZ says "==FINISHED==".
4-Plug it once again, holding the volume DOWN button.
5-Flash out.kdz (remember! it's CS_Emergency).

THANK YOU XDA!
So we just managed to get our Huawei P9 Plus (VIE-AL10C00B106) successfully rooted
0.) *** if you have your Bootloader UNLOCK Code from Huawei, jump to STEP 3 ****
1.) downloaded DC-Unlocker, created a account, added 4 Credits(4EUR) to account. Device should have USB DEBUG Mode enabled and you need to enable 'Manufacture' mode: in dial pad type *#*#2846579#*#* - you enter the "Project Menu", go to "Background settings" -> "USB ports settings" and switch to "Manufacture mode". Dont forget to have your device Drivers (ADB) installed
2.) Once your P9 Plus is normal booted, start DC-Unlocker (here we tested 1.00.1299) , select "huawei phones" with "auto detect" and hit the Search-Button. Your device should be found and listed with IMEI, FW ect.
If you have entered your account details under "SERVER" in dc-unlocker, you can now use the "read bootloader" Button to get your bootloader unlock code - your Credits are GONE then. SAVE THIS CODE BEFORE CLOSING DC-UNLOCKER!!!!!!
3.) Boot your device in fastboot - screen should show "locked" as status on the white screen. Type command "fastboot oem unlock XXXXXXXX" (replace the XXXX with your unlock code from DC Unlocker)
4.) Phone Screen should show a WARNING Message and offer to press VOL UP to UNLOCK phone - WARNING, if you select UNLOCK and press PWR Button to agree, DEVICE WILL INSTANTLY RESETED TO MANUFACTUR DEFAULT
5.) Download the Root-SuperSU-v2.65.zip (DIRECT DOWNLOAD) and put it on a SD-Card
6.) Download the TWRP3.0.2_EMUI4.1_H95X File (DIRECT DOWNLOAD)
7.) Reboot your phone and re-enable USB DEBUG Mode, dont forget to ALLOW Debugging via PC if promped. Insert your SD-Card with the SuperSU Zip into your phone if not already done.
8.) RUN TWRP3.0.2_EMUI4.1_H95X, it will reboot your phone in Fastboot mode. By pressing 1 and then enter, you will Install TWRP 3.0.20. Follow the instructions, by pressing enter again your phone should reboot
9.) while rebooting, HOLD VOL UP and VOL DOWN together pressed until Phone tell you "booting", it should boot into TWRP now
10.) On TWRP, in the right Corner, you can Switch Language from Chinese to English (selectable, dont worry). Now go to INSTALL, move to EXT_SDCARD as source and select the SuperSU ZIP -> INSTALL
the installation of SuperSU may show mounting/unmount errors, but will be installed anyway.
After Operation is done, reboot your Phone into normal Mode. You should find SuperSU installed on your device now.
Working Firmware Versions :
VIE-AL10C00B102*
VIE-AL10C00B106
VIE-AL10C00B163
If anything goes wrong, you may RESTORE your phone to TOTAL Stock by downloading
*VIE-AL10_C00B102 (initial CN nonspecific_Android 6.0_EMUI4.1) firmware - DOWNLOAD HERE (LINK will be added later)
Put the UPDATE.APP File (~2.8GB) (content of SDupdate_Package.tar.gz) in an folder named "dload" on your MicroSD Card and reboot phone with holding VOL UP and VOL DOWN. If the Huawei Logo appears, keep Buttons pressed until DEVICE gives you a vibration impulse. Device should now completly restore initial Firmware from SD-Card. PHONE IS LOCKED again after is operation.
****** i will add Firmware Files B102(initial full release), B106(update) and B163(latest update) LATER to this thread, need to Upload them first ******

how did u do that?? so u exported it from Google contacts den used their Computer software to upload it all back in?? back there is no backup made to google moving forward yeah??
anyone knows when the international ROM will be out? i heard some variants actually allow for Google accounts to sync with the phone.
Yes, exported from the web page on my PC and put the file on my phone, then opened contacts on the phone, selected inport from the menu and imported them from the file I cresated. I found no other way at the time other than moving them to your sim card on another phone, then use that sim on your P9+
Calendar and contact sync adapter work fine here, we installed the apks I posted in the mate thread...
Does this unlock also work with the International versions for example VIE-L29 ?
Could anyone test if FlashFire works?
Guys here real TWRP with decrypt option. Chinese TWRP ****. My sources are clear and free for every one

Restore Backup with: TWRP
hi, i apologize for such a noob question, but i've never rooted a phone before so i'm wondering what are the benefits of rooting the Huawei P9 plus? i understand the basic gist of what rooting does and why you'd want it for phones with heavy, heavy bloat (like, say, a Samsung S5 from a US carrier). but the VIE-AL10 unit's bloatware can mostly be uninstalled (i have the china unlocked version), and with NiLS lockscreen, Nova Launcher, and the Android N theme that i got from this forum, i was able to get the phone running mostly like a normal, clean phone without any sign of those tacky Chinese bloat.
so i'm just wondering at this point what more can root do? what do you guys plan on doing, or have done, to your P9 plus after rooting?
thanks, and apologies again if this is a really dumb question for those experienced in this.
tested on L29.
Phone unlocks but I got stuck on Encryption unsuccessful loop. I did full format, but this removed the OS completely.
I have TWRP running though
Ok working unlocked rooted xposed.
Will rooting/unlocking the bootloader void the warranty or trigger some sort of counter that cannot be reset ?
