Hi all,
Got a mobile that we dont know the previous Gmail account this was registered with. Therefore, I need to bypass the FRP to recover the mobile and use it for testing purposes. Accidentally, I upgraded it to EMUI 10 and after fixing several softbricks, I have no clue how to downgrade it to EMUI 9.
Goals:
Rollback EMUI 10 to 9 on Huawei 20x C185
Abuse flaws on EMUI 9 to bypass FRP
Do all via Linux tools (preferably console)
Firmware
EVR-L29 C185 EMUI 10

Fail attempts
Enter upgrade mode and dload a previous C185 EMUI 9.0.x or EMUI 9.1.x (via OTG cable + microSD card). This always produces the same error: Software upgraded failed!
Try to change country to have chances to flash different firmware.

Try Hisuite

hey @sunrider07,
apparently you need to enable HDB options to use HiSuite, right? Tested HiSuite on Linux emulated via Wine. I was able to use the Huawei tool but I couldn't hook up the mobile to the app. Have you used HiSuite to downgrade the bootloader? If so, it is really needed to have adb connection? Remember my phone is protected via FRP.
This is the way to enable HDB (Huawei ADB dev options):
4. Go to device setting and enable USB Debugging. You can follow our guide on how to enable USB Debugging on Huawei phones.
5. Connect HiSuite to your mobile.
6. HiSuite will automatically shows a system update on your device.

Being blocked by FRP, HDB switch cannot be enabled so i am not sure if HiSuite can be used

My phone is fully stock and unmodified.
And yes, HDB must be enabled for the app to connect.
I was able to downgrade my phone just two days ago and everything works as expected

Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, I do need to find another way to perform a downgrade on the bootloader and base image to EMU 9.0 where there are public and known vulnerabilities to overcome FRP. Otherwise, I will need to wait until a FRP bypass is public, or reverse engineering the HiSuite software to find some fastboot commands to see if I can leverage any of these. It seems I am stuck with it.
Apparently I found this video from 5 days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USvi-1O2Y6o
Anyone knows well the mode USB upgrade?

I saw that too. I too need to downgrade but cannot as usb is not connecting. I can connect to one of the Hisuite versions through wlan option but it cannot be used to change the system (only through usb). Cannot do system recovery (says take it to service center)
Yes video shows if you go into usb mode through recovery (which I can) you can use the MRT tool to flash the rom. I plan to look into it. Otherwise I might just take it to a service center in an upcoming overseas trip (still almost 2 months away)

Do you know where to download this MRT tool? It seems like super unprofessional tool without github repo.
mac231us said:
Separately in my case-The device is not recognized when connecting through usb to the computer (usb ports, cable, windows version, drivers etc all tried-the device type and name is not recognized. OTG usb works but that is only for backups, backup restore and dload method to upgrade-which cannot be used to downgrade to 9.1 or 9.0 from 10.0) Fastboot commands are severely limited in 10 as my device country vendor is unknown. The device works fine otherwise (calls, mms, apps, internet, themes) Device cannot be registered at Huawei as unknown device though I can register in themes. With dload I can switch back and forth between 10.0.0.180 and 183 or even a lower 10 but not to 9 series.

Dont own a Windows10 laptop to use HiSuite, looking for one to see if I can connect it via WiFi. Did you mention you can use all these calls, mms, apps, internet, themes? In this case, we have different issue.
Can you run this command?
Code:
$ fastboot getvar vendorcountry

Surprised there is no way to fastboot erase and install firmware-I heard you need a service rom to completely redo the phone.

The MRT tool must use a fastboot command too. We can always reverse this tool to extract the command. Do you have the tool?

no brother.dont need to flash developer room , if your corrent room is root.
just put phobe in diag mode.with command : adb shell
su (after enter this command , grant root access from phone)
setprop system.at-proxy.mode 1(1 for sim 1 and 3 for sim2)
after this command , phone connects to pc with android virtual port(in device manager , in ports , it will be shown).this way is just work in android 5.if you are in android 6 , you must downgrade to android 5 and try.port will be open with phone tool and it dont be freeze in settings(1/3).
about drivers: drivers must be intel soc drivers.in windows 7 you install that drivers normally.in windows 8 and 8.1 and 10 you must disable driver signature(search google for that).

Hello guys,
I received the following unbrick tool from my supplier in Shenzhen - China and wanted to share it with you since I noticed that many people are desperate to fix their RM6 and swap it to EU.
The process is super easy:
1) Download & extract the following .zip
https://mega.nz/file/ntBSxDKa#h9vUPGoWVyqtyDYWYmSgz8bE1_vNimBMAqTp9csvv-w
2) Make sure all the drivers are installed correctly (Qualcomm, EDL etc...)
3) Open the MiTool application
4) in MiTool, select the folder images
5) Put your phone in EDL mode
6) Once connected, Click flash - the brushing process will start automatically.
7) Once done, force reset and Voilà!
There's an alternative as well: MultiportQLoader
I haven't tried it myself, feel free to try it and share the steps.
Im sorry if any details aren't clear, but I'm typing this while driving xD
Good luck and would appreciate a shout-out on insta @Out.Geeked ^^
THANK YOU SIR
To ask a dumb question, but is this only the 6 or for the pro as well?
Works for both
Thank you so much, it work after someone help me erase flash

Yeah I checked the model number against the box it came in and gave it a shot, now it shows the RM logo and then reboots to the bootloader lmao this phone legit hates me
*edit*
So I think either I'm doing something wrong or this phone is actually messed up. Checked the drivers, tried 2 other cables, all my USB ports and still all it does is briefly show the white "System Rebooting" screen and then the RM logo for about 20 seconds and then reboots to fastboot/bootloader.
MiFlash shows "couldn't find flash script" but otherwise looks like it goes through the reflash process completely but QLoader always fails with an error "Unknown chunk type cac2"
Does this unbrick method require the bl to be unlocked?
anyone lost their imei after doing this? hahahha
i did lost my imei, but manage to repair it but... it still doesnt detect mobile network idk what to do now lol

[Guide] Restore Lost IMEIs / Repair Network or Radio Issues
I accidentally restored TWRP backup of another Zuk Z2 phone on my new pgone and in this process over-wrote the EFS partition. This left me with a phone having no IMEI, no mac for Wifi and Bluetooth. Effectively No Network on phone. Worried, I...
forum.xda-developers.com
this maybe work, havent test it out
Since we have the partition layout & the correct firehose, it should actually be a good practice by anyone wanting to play with their phone (BL unlock, root, dev, etc) to first dump the critical partitions.
That way, you can always restore. Example: EFS, misc, persist, etc.

Select the images folder and then hit flash.
Mine is alive again, no more problems.
I think I know why a lot of people have probably bricked their device after flash from CN to Global. If you do a local update, let the device REboot until the end. After the restart it uses the update.zip again. I think a lot of people did a factory reset immediately after the reboot (like me in Recovery) and the system can no longer find the update.zip.
Therefore, let the update run through, reboot until you are back in the system. Then you can do a factory reset.

Hi guys !
I've just get back my Motorola Z2 play i borrow to one of my friend, but after many trials it seems to be a bit of broken (talk about it below), and after seeking a lot of thread on internet, i feel blocked and i need any advice or help.
Here's the original situation :
- The bootloader has been unlocked in the following way (with fastboot oem get_unlock_data method, then retrieve the key from motorola website)
then, AICP 16.1 has been flashed.
- Everything worked fine except bluetooth can't be used anymore, it can't be activated anymore i didn't know why. (i get back the phone at this step)
- As i appreciate using bluetooth, i tried to upgrade AICP, flash it again and wipe cache/data to check if bluetooth become available again but it never happened.
So i tried to flash the official Motorola ROM and my issues started...
After flashing with this official ROM from Motorola (ALBUS_OPSS27.76_12_25_23_cid50_subsidy_DEFAULT_regulatory_DEFAULT_CFC), phone worked well but i wasn't impossible to use any Google services (if i opened play store it says : "Impossible Connection, an issue has happened while trying to connect to google servers" every time, same error if i wanted to check updates and so on...)
I saw a post on internet that say to relock the bootloader to get the phone fully encrypted and to be trusted from google servers, so i did it using fastboot oem lock. (this is a huge mistake...i know...)
It didn't change anything and google services raise the same error, but now i'm unable to flash any other rom or anything... moreover, OEM unlocked tick on the phone menu is greyed out, i tried to let it connected to internet for ~10days but it doesn't change anything.
When i tried to unlock bootloader again to allow me to flash another rom (i wanted to try lineage os), i got those error :
Code:
fastboot oem unlock "CODE_FROM_MOTOROLA"
(bootloader) invalid boot state
OKAY [ 0.007s]
Finished. Total time: 0.010s
but also
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
(bootloader) Check 'Allow OEM Unlock' in Android Settings > Developer
(bootloader) Options.
OKAY [ 0.009s]
Finished. Total time: 0.010s
but Allow OEM Unlock is still greyed out after 10days connected to the Wifi at home.
The current situation is, i can't unlock bootloader BUT, i can boot on TWRP for example. But when i try to flash anything it raises an error because bootloader is locked.
Is there any way to get out of this lock/unlock issues to be able again to flash a new custom ROM ?
Thanks a lot for your advices

Your original issue was because you upgraded from stock Oreo, which if you would have spent the 5 minutes reading you would have known that A11 roms all require stock Pie modem.
As for your current situation, i don't think you can get out of this one; you might try your hand with Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant or try putting the pie update into the phone to force the updater to upgrade you but you really have put yourself in a weird situation. Your phone is now
1. Locked
2. On the stock rom
3. Without the original recovery
So the bootloader is ****ing confused as to what to do
Hi !
First of all, thanks a lot for your answer.
To be honest i simply used this thread when first upgraded to AICP ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/discontinued-rom-11-0-offical-aicp-16-1-albus.4335535/ ), so sorry i wasn't aware about any requirements about the stock Pie modern you mentioned.
Meanwhile, i already have a look with LMSA tool, everything is recognized but it can't load/flash anything as the bootloader is locked/broken.

I know nowadays a short attention span is rewarded, but reading all the way through to the end is usually worth it. If LMSA can't save you then you have officially bricked your phone (unless you find some exploit) OEM Unlock remains unavailable because the image you flashed isn't signed, and as such the phone has gone into FLASHING_LOCKED instead of OEM_LOCKED; i'm pretty sure you can guess the difference between those two.
One last hail mary would be the updater and P; since OTA's are signed you may be able to unlock your phone again (and this time custom roms WILL work! How about that)
Yeah it's my mistake.. i've just focused on the first post tutorial rather than reading the whole posts before. I also dislike people doing this but this time it's me haha..
(You right i'm into Flashing_locked status.)
Unfortunately Update menu tell me i'm already up to date, don't know if it's related that also any google services says it can't connect to google servers.
i'm afraid OTA update will work again.

That is probably because your particular region did not get Pie; search through this forum, there's a way to force the updater to recognize the OTA

My theory is that my EFI bootloader was written in memory, therefore my bootloader is gone after restarting windows.
(interestingly there is no bootloader unlocked indication, as before.)

Sorry to hear that, please share your steps to disaster to let others know how to avoid this.
I assume that you used default Windows installer that broke your ufs gpt, instead of the installer you should have been used dism.
At this stage only a service may help you, they will put the device in edl mode and flash a stock firmware.
I think the only way to bring it back to life is to get it into EDL mode and force flash stock rom.
but to get to EDL first have to get to fastboot, i dont think it will work, also tried...

That is one way to get EDL, the other one is with a special USB plug if your device permit this, or open the back case and short two special test points on motherboard before power up to enter the EDL.
After you have your device in EDL mode you will need a tool to flash a stock image but as well you will be required to use a special program to authenticate, known as firehose, that kind of program should be signed by Xiaomi, this is why you need to go to an "authorized" service, which paid the signing authorization to Xiaomi.

Very useful info thank you! Just ordered a deepflash cable, hopefully i will find a workaround to flash in EDL.
If not, i'll try to get it done under warranty. I do not want to risk a keylog or a scam.
I bricked my tablet in the same way, only I can enter fastboot mode, by mistake when flashing a rom I did not change the option to lock the bootloader, now my pad 5 only turns on in fastboot mode, I don't have access to anything else , it does not let me flash with xiaomiflash because it says that it cannot proceed with the bootloader locked

You should download the latest MIUI Stable Fastboot update corresponding to your region (global, eeaor other) from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/miui-updates-tracker-xiaomi-pad-5-nabu.4328591/ , decompress the tgz file with 7zip or another software, and then, with your device in fastbboot mode, execute the flash_all.bat file within the folder you extracted. This should work even with a locked bootloader.
Good luck

Well, maybe I was wrong and you need an unlocked bootloader for this method to work. You could try to unlock it again with MiUnlock https://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html . Otherwise, I am out of idea.
I tried it and it didn't work, it tells me that I have to enable my miui account.

Well, then I'm out of ideas. Maybe you should see what the seller's support can do.
Dear Experts,
I'm trying to rewrite lost IMEI after flashing stock rom (No backup). Tried everything in my sleeve. I am trying to find out how to enter in Meta mode so I can use the SN write tool or Modem meta. Tried following things:
adb reboot meta - nothing happening except reboot.
Vol button combo - nothing but fastboot and recovery.
Root - bootloader/oem can't be unlocked
Tried verity of tools nothing happening.
Brom mode - TP needs to be connected all the time (This is how I flashed the Rom).
Does any of you guys know how to activate Meta mode in this device. Seems nobody shared that detail over internet. Please help..
Thanks in advance.

Please make sure you have all the required drivers installed. If not please just install HMD Device Kit and it will install all the necessary drivers or you can manually install drivers from here.
Hi mvikrant97,
Sorry for the belated reply, I have installed HMD Device Kit drivers as per your link. but still its not detecting by Modem meta or SN Writer tool. While I connect the switched off phone this shows up in device manager.

Were you able to connect device before when it was in working condition?
It also seems like the cable you are using is malfunctioned or the device USB port itself.
I'm sorry but I will have to ask you questions to diagnose the problem.

As I have mentioned before, I flashed this device with stock ROM using the same usb cable by triggering Test point in Brom Mode, So I highly doubt this is because of the faulty usb cable. Thereafter I lost my IMEI, but fortunately I had one IMEI noted down beforehand. I am trying to rewrite that IMEI so that I can use my SIM. Seriously what is this Meta Mode? This means nokia G10 doesn't support Meta Mode?
Please feel free to ask any question or suggestions mate.

You will need Pandora Tool to fix up the IMEI.
But as much I know you need to have the backup beforehand to fix the issue.
You may refer to the video below
Thanks for the heads up. Looked up the tool, seems expensive than the G10 itself. Still wondering why the phone is not detected though.

Maybe because the phone does not support Meta mode
