Hey all,
So I bought a cheap 9" tablet off eBay for use as an electronic billboard outside my dorm room door (cool, huh?)
I've been trying to root it for a long time so I could disable the touch screen/buttons on the device. I don't want people powering it off or something weird. I tried a bunch of different rooting methods to no prevail and eventually decided to try installing a custom recovery image using fast boot. Well, I definitely screwed something up as now the tablet just keeps rebooting as shown in the gif below.

The screen will turn on and off and it seems to do it too quickly to be recognized by fast boot.
Should I paint a target on the back and practice my aim or is there any hope here?
Thank you for reading.
I figured it out! For anyone who has a problem in the future, I'll tell you how I did it.
Get PhoenixCard, it allows you to reinstall firmware through a micro sd card.
blogtechtips.com/2015/11/24/phoenixcard/
Then, get the iRulu firmware from the iRulu website. I checked the sticker on the back of my tablet and my model is like an x1924 (first part of whatever that code is.) I downloaded the "X1921 X1922 X1931 X1932 Firmware_YHK" firmware as it was the closest one. There should be instructions on how to use the PhoenixCard software to reinstall your firmware, but I found that I had to remove the card and try burning again if it failed to burn. It'll say "error" at the end if it failed.
Then I tried plugging in the card and booting the tablet a couple of times until a loading bar appeared on the screen. Wait patiently, and eventually it will turn off again. Remove the card and boot up and you're good!

I also have an IRULU x9 (boot screen says expro x1) I have a serial # jx944wf1507061e. I found the firmware on the Irulu site as firmware for JX944 & JX945 HERE
xx.irulu.com/download/lists.html
replace xx with www
I rooted my tablet but it is stuck in factory reset boot loop. If there is a power cycle i lose all programs installed and the tablet goes back to factory settings out of the box state. However, I still have root and superuser (Kingoroot) installed.
I will try flashing it with phoenixcard and with the factory firmware and post if it fixed it.
***update** Flashed the firmware with Phoenixcard, used JX944 firmware and it is back to factory specs working as it did when it was stock.
Thanks to you both. I'm going to try this over New Year's. Wish me luck!

Hi All,
I have a Huawei Enjoy 7 - Model SLA-LA00 (running Nougat 7.0, EMUI 5.1, Boot is unlocked).
I'd like to root it, but I've tried Kingoroot, King Root, iRoot etc and it repeatedly fails. On checking it seems that my device isn't compatible with those apps. I would like to use the ADB method, but there's no custom recovery image for the SLA-LA00, I've also checked and it seems, there isn't but please correct me if I'm wrong.
Is there a custom recovery available for my model?? Also, I've tried looking but, is there an International firmware for this model??
Any assistance would be appreciated, thanks.
Regards,

Hello, was going to create a new thread, but think yours fits what I need to ask aswell.
Same phone here, bought it in Shanghai and now in Brasil, was trying just to make it google able. Salesman at the official Huawei store tricked me to think it would just need access to a open network for it to work. Silly me.
Well, as you, unlocked it with ADB and with no answers from nobody, tried to flash it with a random TWRP. Obviously didn't work. Now the phone wont boot into system, but i still can manage to put it in fastboot mode and it still replies to ADB.
Question is if someone that knows better than me can tell me what to do to at least get back where I was, before I finish killing this damm stupid phone, wich also doesn't seem such bad idea.

Hi , all you have here :
https://www.getdroidtips.com/huawei-enjoy-7-b161-nougat/
Hey, thanks a bunch. Found that post before, but it looks like its for an older version of this phone. Mine was running b190 nougat. Don't know if should try to flash this one, but if no other ideas, will try it.
Well, was able to boot it again. Flashed it with yet another twrp that i found for a similar (or so i think) huawei and even tough it didn't work, when I connected the phone to the charger and it responded the power up volume combination and allowed me to reboot normaly.
Guess I'm back to where I started. Think now is better to wait, maybe there wiil be a moe suitable release of a gms core package that it requires for google play to work (have it, but installation fails on rebbot) or twrp updates with a version that works for me and then I can try to install gapps thru it.
Back to my old crappy lg now.
Hi hello
So here’s a head scratcher I hope someone can help me with that won’t involve replacing my main board.
Got myself the p20 lite (ANE-LX1 C432) - Single Sim.
I unlocked the bootloader with Huawei just before they stopped handing out the codes. All was good and happy with the world.
Rooted with Magisk and Was busy messing around With Termux, Linux deploy, Mobile Terminal and some pretty basic stuff. I’ve been out of the android scene for a while so was getting reacquainted with the scene.
Anyway. I was messing around in the terminal in a root shell just fixing basic permissions after messing up my termux environment as root. Phone randomly rebooted (I must’ve messed with the wrong folder -no idea which) came back on and my IMEI and baseband were gone.
No worries, I thought. Happened tonnes of times with my previous Devices (looking at you Samsung) just a quick restore or flash and all will be happy again.
Yeah, not quite.
Note that up until this point I hadn’t touched the system partition (probably besides the mobile terminal mishap -no idea)
So over the last week or so I have tried everything. Restore from Twrp backup. Flashed stock through fastboot, through erecovery. Those flashed ok but didn’t fix it.
Putting numerous different update.app FULL & OTA updates in dload folder on SD and internal all failed. Only used my builds version of course and only ones firmware finder deemed compatible/available
Then I got desperate (read: stupid) Decided to take the unpacked firmware files and flash whichever ones twrp would let me. First tried just the modem files. Didn’t help. Then just went through the list and flashed all I could.
I think the kicker came in when I installed the Trustfirmware.img because once I did that I rebooted and now I was stuck in an endless boot loop. No way to get into recovery. Not with their ton combo nor adb/fastboot.
I still had access to fastboot at this point at least and started doing every single thing suggested all over the net just trying to get back to stock.
Tried the unbrick option on The Huawei Multi-Tool. Flashed ok. Phone still wouldn’t boot. Did it a few times with 3 approved versions. Nothing. Only access to fastboot otherwise I was in a boot loop with error mode error no 15 and the verification failure (Attached below)
Last thing I tried after reading online was to relock my boot loader and flash stock. So I locked it with Huawei Multi-Tool. Reboot......
Now I don’t even have access to fastboot. My PC’s (windows and Linux) don’t even acknowledge it and holding volume down in all the weird and wonderful ways and times does nothing. All I get is startup Huawei Logo, Error Mode as per pic Below and then reboot. That’s it.
I’m assuming it’s trying to do a factory reset after relocking the bootloader (if it even locked properly, can’t check) but it can’t get into recovery/erecovery. I dunno ?
That’s my essay of where I’m at. Warranty is already void so not an option and I don’t want to buy a new mainboard (may as well buy a new phone).
So here I am. Is this my life now or does anyone have any magic tricks to possibly suggest?

Thanks for this.
The battery discharged fully about two days ago.
I haven’t tried plugging it in and out as/if it turns on immediately (though even though it shows dead without charger it still comes on immediately).
I’m gonna get a weaker lower amp charger and see if that maybe helps. Fml ?
***UPDATE***
Been at it for hours. Battery is completely flat. But h second I plug it in the the Black Huawei logo comes up ten a few seconds later it’s on the same error screen for a little longer then boot loops like that constantly.
The error isn’t the same as the post in that link though. And I am FRP unlocked.
Eh.

I guess your previous error was related to ramdisk...
Now what is your current situation?
-What error is showed in the Error mode?
-Can you reach FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE menu?
-What is your current recovery?

As it stands I cannot enter fastboot or recovery mode. Update from SD also doesn’t do anything. Battery is completely discharged. And if I leave it on the charger it doesn’t charge, only boot loops.
So with all that the ONLY thing this phone does now is:
- Starts up Showing Huawei logo
- Error Mode Screen with Func No: 15 (bl31 image) & Error No: 1 (security verify failed)
- Reboots
Ths happens whether it’s plugged into the pc’s usb or the charger. Tried all combinations of buttons too.
It has stock recovery as I flashed that back when trying to revert back to stock.
I lost access to fastboot after I locked the bootlaoder again using the Huawei Multi Tool. It’s like it trying to do the factory wipe that it usually would after locking/unlocking the bootloader but is unable to due to the error mode screen.

I see, it is really bad
My last hope is to be able to do a forced Firmware upgrade. Press power button and VOL + and VOL- simultaneously. Do you see the same as the attached image?

Ah man, I wish it would even do that. It makes no attempt to even pretend to see the sd card update. If I hold all the buttons in it still only comes up with the error mode and reboots.
I popped it open and connected a charger up battery to see if that would help but it doesn’t.
Do you maybe know the pin layout on the inside or know where I could get schematics? Been looking everywhere.
I’m almost done building my own Jtag box and am hoping to bring it back to life by writing straight to the damn thing.

That is sad!!!
With JTAG and schematics stuff I cannot help you.
What I found recently and it was new for me (I didn't tested yet) is a possibility to install firmware via "dload" folder, but to start installation the stock recovery have to be full functional.
If I found something interesting for you I'll post here.

To my knowledge the recovery is installed. Well erecovery. It was working up until I locked the bootloader again and it went into a boot loop instead of doing the factory reset.
Is there any other way to force sd update other than with the dload folder?
Thanks for tying to help, I appreciate it.

You can check the official documentation about that.
Please let us know how you solved this problem.

Still unsolved as of yet.
I’ve finished building my own version of the Riff/Octoplus box as well as a makeshift Jtag. I’m still trying to find and piece together some firmware files and other board software I think I need.
Also, if anyone has any idea where the test point is on this board I’d really appreciate you pointing it out. I cannot find the schematics or any solid documentation anywhere.
I will attach the pics I have of both sides of the board as soon as I get home.

well, try to restore your device using dload method. It needs you to copy the UPDATE.APP in dload folder of an external sd card(formated in NTFS format) and then just press both vol up+down along with power button for a few seconds. It will auto launch huawei e-recovery and will try to flash the UPDATE.APP you stored in ext sd card. This should definitely work.
Dload method doesn't need you to unlock your device or bootloader.
Maybe?
I know it’s a long shot but I still have this phone. If anyone maybe knows if there’s been a way to fix this as of yet please let me know. ?
Lol. Still got this damn thing. Been searching around and seen a few people reporting similar errors. Never find out if they ever solve it though.
So. Anyone maybe have any knowledge to share? Anything at all.
I don't know if you still have your device, but I had the exact same issue with a P10 (VTR-L09)
I was able to fix fastboot using https://github.com/mashed-potatoes/PotatoNV
That tool was designed to unlock the bootloader, but I noticed that It actually flashes a slightly modified version of fastboot.
PotatoNV can also unlock P20 lite bootloader, so you should give it a shot.
Good luck!
If it works, you should be able to flash stock recovery image and then restore the system using the dload folder.
you can Repair it with Software Testpoint and Full Bootloader Unlock ,and then flash a Board Software via Software Testpoint, that helps 100%!!!
use this Firmware Download ANE-LX1
use the Software with logins and you have all what you need.
you must start the Software Testpoint so!!
VIDEO : how to start Software Testpoint P20 Lite
than in Software Testpoint you flash the included Board Software with DC-Phoenix and after that use the included dload update via sdcard and eRecovery mode and your Phone is running!!!
I would unlock the bootloader via Software Testpoint with DC-Phoenix, then the FBLock is unlocked and you can flash as you wish!!!! And the great thing about it is that you don't need an UnlockKey either, you can then read this with HCU client software, the only thing that's stupid is that you need a time-based license for the two programs, which you have to buy.
HCU client download
https://hcu-client.com
DC Phoenix download
https://forum.dc-unlocker.com/forum/modems-and-phones/huawei/155916-dc-phoenix
Since I accidentally bought a 3-day license twice and my P20 Lite is now completely rooted on Lineage 19.1, I can give away 2 access data, which are still valid for 2 days.
you can edit your smartphone with it.

I've a mate 8 NXT-L29C636 which I believe is asia region although I've from the UK
I was running stock android 6 with EMUI 4.0
When I ask it to check for any update, it always came back with no updates.
I saw plenty of threads saying they had updated to android 7 and 8 and how they done it.
So I downloaded Firmware Finder from Google play and without too much difficulty managed to start installing firmware. That's when my problems started
This was two weeks ago and I've been spending 100+ hours trying to recover.
I think it failed a 5% or something and since then my phone will not boot properly.
I can only fastboot it and sometimes to erecovery and EMUI to wipe/factory reset
Searching forums it seems DC Phoenix was the only software that could help so I bought it.
So far I've tried flashing firmware from DC-Unlocker site in standard more but all goes ok with success for all the partitions but it requires the phone to put into upgrade mode, something my phone never does and I can't force it.
So that leaves me with advanced mode, again all successful but booting the phone just gives the huawei logo then reboots again
I've tried different stock roms NXT-L29C636 but they all claim successful but still can't boot my phone
I've followed the steps in DC-Phoenix instructions to no avail.
The last step today meant shorting a pin to ground to force the phone into a mode when it was seen as windows as Huawei USB COM device, which seemed to work.
The instructions claimed I can use any NXT board flash as they're all the same and again all successful i used
NXT-AL10_M00A102_Board Software_Global _Nonspecific_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.0_05021WLB_4.dtwork
but the log file now says build is;
Build number: HLNXTAL10BM00A102
Model: HUAWEI NXT-L29
Battery state: 3249mv
from
Build number: :NXT-L29C432B192
Model: HUAWEI NXT-L29
Battery state: 7035mv
So my question is am I using the wrong firmware? It is always successful so I don't think it's bricked but I can't work out what I'm doing wrong.
Other things to mention is pressing vol - and vol + and power with sd card and dload doesn't work either.
Sorry for long post and thanks for reading
Any help very much appreciated
Hello, I have a Huawei Nova 9 se phone, received from a friend. I made the mistake of giving it a factory reset. This is where the problems started. The phone was trying to activate, then I got the message that the security chip is broken. I managed to solve that problem with UAP pro, but the phone no longer boots. Just enter recovery mode. In recovery mode I tried to reinstall the software, which is JLN-LX1, via OTG, but it does not install. Sure, I created the dload file and loaded the update.app file into it. It seems there is a way to bring the phone back to life with .xml and raw files. But all I found are only paid sites and they are a bit expensive. Is there anyone who can help me restart my phone?
Thank you all.
